Edit: I can't find a way to fix the break line error. Please send me suggestions of how to fix it
Hey guys, InfernalFox here!
I knew it! No one got the correct answer! I successfully made you guys think it was someone else! I'm not dropping names 'cause then I would be giving you hints, but pay attention to the AN! Maybe then you'll get it!
Since no one got it right, you guys had to wait 'till Friday. Btw Saturday is my new update day. If you get the Question right in this chapter, i'll update in Friday.
Also! I have started watching the Sun and Moon anime! I originally had refused to do so, because of the animation, but I need to watch it to coordinate timelines. *smiles evilly* Gladion is 'away somewhere with permission'? Perfect.
Em… forget I ever said anything. Also, about the new movie I just have to say it: WTF?! They are making a different timeline? *sarcastically* Great. They love making our job harder. Damn you Pokemon Writers.
By the way, I know there is a petition form that people are signing to make a AU ending for the Kalos League. Here, check it out!

Let's hope doesn't screw the URL. If it does, just google it quick. You will find it immediately.
And now, to the story
During the flight ( It. Was. So. Long. Mind controlled or not, Ash could not stay still that long!) , Ash had given a nickname to Dragalde, Drax. He seemed to like it, so Ash was left without anything to do the rest of the trip, and by the time they finally arrived, he was ready to jump out of the helicopter if it meant escaping the increasing boredom.
When they arrived to the outside of Petalburg city, Ash suppressed a pang of guilt. May and Max's father lived there. And they were trying to take over his father's him so they could invade the city easily. What kind of friend was he?! Then he remembered that Team Flare had captured LaRousse City, and he felt even worse.
Ash shook his head. Now was not the time. He had a mission to complete. Ash checked his
holo-caster to see what exactly did Lysandre wanted him to do.
He was horrified. He wanted him to do what?!
The report showed that Steven was indeed waiting for them in Petalburg. But in the gym?!
That was a place Ash couldn't set foot in. He had caused so much pain to his friends, he couldn't-
"But it isn't like I have a choice anyways" He thought resigned.
He then remembered Greninja. He wasn't alone in this hellhole. He had Greninja, and a bunch of other Pokemon that had decided to stick with him. He could do this.
One day, when all of this was over, he would apologize to everyone. "But today is not that day " He said to himself.
He went to look around for a good training spot.
Hoenn, Petalburg Forest
Ash was training with Greninja on a fallen tree. Greninja's attacks left deep marks on the trunk, Cuts and Night Slashes, Aerial Aces and Water Shurikens leaving the tree totally destroyed.
He was going to search for another tree to turn into splinters, when he heard a broken whimper.
Immediately, his eyes widened and turned to Greninja. His partner nodded, no words needing to be spoken. During their past year in something that could only be described as Hell, their connection had deepened to form a bond that only Pikachu could rival.
Greninja disappeared into the forest, and while Greninja looked in higher ground, Ash searched by land.
It took them a while, but they finally found the Pokemon who had made such a sound.
It was a Bagon, and a hurt one at that. The poor Dragon Type looked so battered and weak, that it was obvious he had once belonged to a Trainer, even if the location wasn't a warning bell enough.
Ash didn't waste time, and called Greninja. The powerful Pokemon immediately answered his call, and Ash ordered to carry Bagon to the temporal base. Greninja picked up the whimpering Pokemon, and looked at Ash.
"I'll be fine" Ash reassured his most powerful partner that he had in this nightmare "I can perfectly find the way out, and if anything happens, I have the others to protect me, and I can use Aura. I'll be fine, don't worry"
Greninja still looked at him worried, but nodded and left to find help for the dying Pokemon.
And Ash was left alone in the forest. Well, not exactly, as he could feel Greninja asking if he was alright through their bond. Ash reassured him, and started walking through the silent forest. No Pokemon could be seen, as Greninja had scared them all.
After a while retracing his steps, he found the exit, and prepared himself. He took a deep breath, and crossed the edge of the forest. Instantly he was greeted by Team Flare's temporal base, and I tried to find Greninja by using a combination of Aura Sight and our bond. I immediately detected him in the part of the base that was reserved to us, so I directed myself there without a thought.
I found Greninja standing at the edge of a bed, where I could see that Bagon was completely healed, probably by Essentia and her seemingly infinite healing objects.
I went to Greninja's side, and joined him in staring at the situation that brought a sense of deja vu over us.
"Doesn't it remind you of when you were a Froakie, Greninja?" Ash asked fondly through their bond.
"Was I really that small?" Greninja asked amused.
Ash nodded "We have gone a long way since you were a rebellious Froakie and I was the self-sacrificing Trainer "
"In some ways, we still are " Greninja said solemn "By the way, are you gonna catch him?" He pointed at Bagon.
Ash thought of it for a second. A Salamence would be good for his team, and Bagon looked like he had spent too much time with humans to know how to survive on its own.
"Yeah" He admitted to Greninja as he took out a pokeball and softly tapped Bagon with it. The Dragon Type was digitized and absorbed into the ball. The ball shook once, and stars appeared, signifying a successful capture.
"Welcome to the team" Ash said to the pokeball.
And Ash left with Greninja to prepare themselves for a meeting from their past.
Hoenn, Petalburg City
Ash was sneaking into the Petalburg City Gym, while having an internal debate with Greninja
"I can't do this!" Ash internally screamed in frustration.
"Yes we can. We have done it before. We'll go in, defeat them, and leave before anybody has a chance to react " Greninja was anxious for battling. He wanted to fight strong opponents, and what was stronger than a Champion?
Ash wanted to fight too, but the excitement of the chance of battling Steven was drowned by the worry. What if he seriously hurt someone? What if Lysandre decided to take control? He couldn't let that happen, he decided. Not again. He would defeat Norman if he had to, defeat May, if it meant protecting them. He could do this.
He closed his fist. Hard.
"Let's do this partner " He said to Greninja, eyes blazing with determination.
"We'll grow stronger with each battle " Greninja nodded.
Aaaand…. Done!
I hate writing battles… I'm stuck writing Mega Metagross vs Ash Greninja right now *Groans* I hate it…..
Comments:
Raze Olympus: I originally didn't get your comment. Then I reread it. Nah, it's Mega Metagross, I didn't count the stars. But I can make a Mega Lucario fight later…. Maybe. No promises.
Cutesaralisa: There. Your chapter. Nah, Silver isn't coming, I have never read the manga. About the beam…. It already has. Some of them. And it will catch more.
Kiri Kaitou Clover: Kiri! Nice to see you buddy! We need to RP more in the Kingdom Hearts 3 Forum, it has hit a block. And yeah, I hate OCs too, but I need a OC to blow stuff up, and I can't bring Mew yet….. And he is in control of his mind…. kind of. But Lysandre can still take control. It's like a manual mode and automatic. Even if Ash is in control, he is still being influenced by the Mega Evolution Energy.
Okay, now. Since you failed in the last question, this week you have 2 questions! (One of them is easy and I need it for something, I'm just too lazy to look it up)
Question number 1: Why is there a Piplup in the trailer of the new Pokemon movie
'I Choose You!'?
Question number 2: In the anime of Pokemon Sun and Moon, what is the English name for the Pokemon that hatches from the egg Lillie has?
Thank you for the support!
