ultima-owner: And they will not show up for long periods of time because they will get their ribs fractured every time they appear.

Jewlbunny: I am making this in the "re-combined" timeline, thus weapons and tools from every timeline will make an appearance. Heck, even temples will appear! Fishing rods are important to get water pokemon in many games, but there were not many fishing rods that the hero actually used, except for the one Collin made for the Hero in "Twilight Princess".

Other information: The design of "Link" from the Legend of Zelda series was inspired by Walt Disney's "Peter Pan". The next thing is unconfirmed, but I suspect the Legend of the Sword in the Stone was also an inspiration, as the Master Sword the Hero used was always found in a stone pedestal and could only be drawn by the Hero.

Pokémon: The King of Power

Chapter 4: Ho-Oh and the Forest Temple

Outside Viridian City

Ash, with Pikachu on his shoulder, glanced at the route leading to the Viridian Forest. Spearow and Gyrados were in their poke balls, and the sun was shining brightly. As Ash took a few steps along the road, the Triforce of Power started shining brightly. Right then, a red, white, and green feather that shone with the seven colors of the rainbow fell in front of him and landed on his nose. Taking out a small case, he placed the feather in it and inspected it closely. A loud cry got Ash's attention and he closed the case and placed it in his pouch and looked skywards, and his eyes widened. He pulled out a poke dex and pointed it at the flying bird Pokémon.

"Ho-Oh. A Rainbow Pokémon. On sparkling wings of seven colors, Ho-Oh leaves a rainbow behind as it flies. Legend says that Ho-Oh suppressed a war that scorched the land in ancient times. Its attack Sacred Fire can melt ice in an instant and also damage the target with burns. Ho-Oh will show its solemn figure only for the most righteous Trainers." It said in a robotic voice. (Quoting the Ho-Oh trophy from Super Smash Brothers Brawl) "So, that's a Ho-Oh…that means the feather must be a legendary Rainbow Wing." Ash said to Pikachu. As Ho-Oh vanished into the distance, Ash continued forward into the Viridian Forest.

Ash entered the dark, dank, Viridian Forest and was almost immediately greeted with the sight of a Pidgeotto attacking a Caterpie. He simply threw a poke ball at the Caterpie, as it was already injured, and the ball pinged to signal a capture as it flew back into his hand. Pidgeotto, angered that someone kept it from getting its prey, attacked Ash, only for a thunder shock attack to bring it down. "Two new Pokémon already." Ash said, as he threw another poke ball. It shook for nearly a minute, but pinged to confirm a capture.

After the ball returned to Ash and he put it on his belt, the ground started shaking. The orange-haired girl from earlier fell out of a tree, with a Metapod landing on her head. "BUG!" She shouted, running behind Ash so fast he almost swore that she teleported. Out of nowhere, a couple of trees collapsed-revealing a long forgotten path. "This….why would a path be revealed now? What caused that earthquake?" The girl asked. "I don't know….but things happen to me for a reason." Ash said, walking down the path.

After what seemed like forever, the two humans came across a maze-like meadow. "No way. Could it be?" Ash said. "Be what?" The girl asked, "A long-forgotten temple." Ash replied, running into the maze. "H-Hey! Wait up!" The girl said, running after him.

Ash stopped when he came to a grey pedestal with a circular black pattern on it. Inside the pattern were three curved lines that almost looked like the blades of fan-four thin ones actually. (look up Forest Medallion from Ocarina of Time 3D) There was a doorway high up in the stone wall, but most of the stairway had crumbled, and only the two steps in front of the doorway remained. Ash turned and spotted the girl running up to him. "Why in the name of the Goddesses do you keep following me?" He asked. "You better get used to it, as I'm not going away until I get an explanation on why you could do the strange things!" She said, before clearing her throat. "I'm Misty, by the way." "My name is Ash Ketchum, future King of Power and representative of the Gods." He said, rolling his shoulders in disinterest. He glanced at the doorway and started floating upwards.

Misty, spotting him floating, grabbed onto his right leg and was lifted up with him. He moved forwards and landed on the remains of the stairs. "What you're about to see might scare you, blow your mind, or both." Ash said, as they wandered into the unknown doorway hidden away in the Viridian Forest. Inside it was a small, grassy area with stone walls on each side. In front of them was a door with a slightly rusty doorknob. The symbol on the pedestal outside was above the door. As they took a step forward, a couple of monstrous, two legged wolves with yellow eyes popped out of the ground and charged at them. Misty yelled and started running up the vines on the wall. Ash spun and pulled out the Master Sword and sliced their tails off. The wolves howled and burned in a blue flame, leaving only ashes from their bodies behind.

Misty slowly climbed down and followed him into the doorway. Vines covered the walls and a giant spider with a skull-like casing over its body hung from the ceiling. Ash rummaged around his pouch and pulled out-much to Misty's surprise-a bow and a large quiver. He placed an arrow on the bow and pulled it back and it lit up with a red aura. "Fire Arrow!" Ash shouted, letting the arrow fly-the tip now covered in fire. The arrow landed on the spider and it let out a screech as it burned to dust. "Skulltulas and Wolfos survived the purge….but only in certain locations." A dark aura surrounded Ash and he held out his hand. Dust swirled around the floor and formed into an armored skeleton with a red gleam in its eye sockets. It held a grey shield in its left hand and a red sword in its right. "Make sure the young woman here stays here until I return." Ash said, getting a nod from the armored skeleton-commonly referred to as a Stalfos.

Ash wandered through the main door and entered a large room with a brown pedestal that looked like a primitive elevator. There were large, blue plants with sharp, red teeth in front of other doors. Ash knew that going through those doors were not necessary, the temple had been completed long before by the Hero of Time. Around the pedestal were four torches with four flames, one orange, one blue, one green, and one purple. Standing on the pedestal, Ash felt it lowering and watched as the room he had been standing in vanished as he was lowered through a tunnel.

The pedestal landed in a circular room with a tunnel leading to a large, gold and blue door. Ash placed his hands on the door and lifted upwards, the door raising itself. Walking through the opened door, he came to a stairway and walked up it. He came to a circular room with a section closed off by red rope. Along the wall were paintings of a dead forest leading to a dark castle-all identical. Standing in front of Ash was a black horse with a red, flame-like mane and tail with a figure in black and red armor sitting on its back. The head was half of the figure on the horse was a skull with the top jaw protruding with a yellow gleam in its eye sockets. The skull had four horns protruding from it, two on the sides, and two from the forehead. The entire skull was covered in a blue flame and it held a trident in its right hand with the occasional flicker of electricity moving across it.

"You are….the new Master. You wield the same power the old Master that abandoned me did." It spoke. "You must be the one known as Phantom Ganon." Ash said. "The Gods of Hyrule pulled me from the gap between dimensions and had me wait until the next Master approached me. One that would wield one of the three pieces of the Triforce." Ash said nothing, just watching as Phantom Ganon seemed to vanish into thin air. "If you need me, call me and I will respond." The figure's voice echoed in the air. A green medallion with the same symbol on the pedestal outside landed at Ash's feet. "The Forest Medallion….it's true power can only be awakened by the Sage of the Forest….but who's the new Sage?" Ash asked as he retraced his steps to re-group with Misty. Pikachu just kept rubbing his eyes in disbelief.

As he walked back, Ash noticed something he missed. A metal shield with a shining, blue front that had the design of a red bird-like design underneath the golden image of the Triforce. There were silver curves on each side of the Triforce. Ash picked it up and looked at it in reverence. "A Hylian Shield. An unbreakable shield that can withstand fire AND electricity. This will be useful." He said as he attached the shield to his back over the scabbard of the Master Sword.

In the unknown ruins:

Ganon sat on the throne underneath the stone statue and held out his hand. The shadows seemed to collect in front of him until it formed a figure kneeling in front of him. It had dark grey skin and white hair with red eyes. It wore a black tunic and held a dark version of the Master Sword and Hylian Shield. It had pointed ears-similar to Ganon. "Rise." Ganon spoke and the figure stood up to a height of 6 feet. "A person has received a piece of the Triforce. You are to kill him and bring me that piece of the Triforce. Do not fail me-you are my most loyal and strongest follower." The figure smirked and vanished into smoke.

"After all, even the Hero of Time had trouble facing his own Shadow….Dark Link"

Chapter End.

For those of you new to the Legend of Zelda series, I will be combining all THREE timelines. Here is a legend from the game "Wind Waker", which talks about Ganon.

"Long ago, there existed a kingdom where a golden power lay hidden. It was a prosperous land blessed with green forests, tall mountains, and peace. But one day a man of great evil found the golden power and took it for himself….With its strength at his command, he spread darkness across the kingdom. But then, when all hope had died, and the hour of doom seemed at hand…

a young boy clothed in green appeared as if from nowhere. Wielding the blade of evil's bane, he sealed the dark one away and gave the land light. This boy, who traveled through time to save the land, was known as the Hero of Time. The boy's tale was passed down through generations until it became legend….

But then…a day came when a fell wind began to blow across the kingdom. The great evil that all had thought to have been forever sealed away by the hero…once again crept forth from the depths of the earth, eager to resume its dark designs. The people believed the Hero of Time would again come to save them.

But the hero did not appear. Faced by an onslaught of evil, the people could do nothing but appeal to the gods. In their last hour, as doom drew nigh, they left their future in the hands of fate.

What became of that kingdom…?

None remain who know.

The memory of the kingdom has vanished, but its legend survived on the wind's breath. On a certain island, it became customary to garb boys in green when they came of age.

Clothed in the green of fields, they aspired to find heroic blades and cast down evil. The elders wished only for the youths to know courage like the hero of legend….."
