Chapter 10
Three days had passed. Ash had spent those days getting to know Riolu, who he'd actually met before in Sinnoh, training with his Aura alongside Riolu, and preparing to be tested for Psychic and Spectral Energy. It was rather nerve wracking, but when the time came, he approached Team Justice's Science Building.
He took a deep breath and stepped forward with Pikachu on his shoulder and Riolu by his side. "Ready?" he asked them.
"You don't have to worry, Master," Riolu said.
"Yeah Ash, you'll do fine," Pikachu added.
Ash smiled and replied with, "Thanks guys. Your support means a lot." He then took another deep breath and entered the building. There he saw Lance waiting for him along with Zach and Sophia.
"Ah, Ash," Lance said. "Are you ready for the test?"
"Yes sir," Ash responded.
"Excellent," Lance said in reply. Then he turned to Sophia and said, "You may begin the Tests, Sophia."
"Of course," she simply replied and then turned to Ash. "Now then, I need you to put on this headset. It will scan you for amounts of the energies that we mentioned. Got it?"
Ash simply nodded and put on the headset. He looked over and saw that there were bars of blue, pink, and purple. He guessed that they each measured the presence of the energies inside him, as the blue one quickly turned green, confirming Aura. He saw Sophia's hand glow a pink shade.
"What's the glowing for?" he asked.
"I'm using my own Psychic Energy to detect if you possess any. It should speed up the process of searching for Psychic Energy," she told him.
Zach then stepped in. "Later, I'm going to do the same thing, but I'll be searching for Spectral Energy."
After a while, the pink bar had turned green as well. Sophia turned to Lance and said, "Looks like he's got Psychic Energy too."
Zach then ran the same tests, resulting in the purple bar becoming a green one as well. He then turned to Lance. "Sir, Ash has all three. This hasn't happened before."
Lance looked over at Ash, then spoke to Zach. "I could tell he was special, but I never suspected he was this special. Prepare the other two Pokeballs. He'll need them."
"Right away," Sophia said before leaving.
Ash had just taken off the equipment and walked over to the control room. "So," he began, "what were the results?"
Just then, Sophia came back in carrying two Pokeballs. Then, Lance began his explanation. "You have all three energies Ash," he stated simply.
"What's wrong with that?" he asked noticing the extreme seriousness on the Champion's face.
"One energy is rare enough in the world. Two is hardly ever seen. There has never been a person with three. Until now," he finished.
"So what does it mean?"
Zach answered with, "It means you have a lot of training ahead of you. Sophia, can you give him the Pokeballs?"
"Of course," she said and then handed Ash the before mentioned Pokeballs.
Sophia spoke first. "This is Ralts. She should be able to help you train your Psychic Energy, and you will raise her along with Riolu."
Zach spoke next. "This is Gastly. He will help with your control of Spectral Energy. Raise it with Riolu and Ralts."
Finally, Lance spoke. "It's important you master all your energies. I hope you will be successful at this. You'll know you've mastered the energy when you can perform a signature Pokemon attack that uses that energy. Aura mastery leads to using Aura Sphere, Psychic Energy mastery leads to mastering Psychic, and Spectral Energy mastery leads to learning Shadow Ball. Once you've managed to do that, you'll definitely be one of the strongest people in the world."
Ash brightened at learning of his abilities. He'd make sure to train his energies and raise Riolu, Ralts, and Gastly well. His Pokemon team now had three new additions, and he was going to become even stronger with them on his side.

Giovanni was a bit worried. The framing of Ash Ketchum had gotten a bit complicated thanks to Team Justice, but they'd managed to pull it off. However, the boy still hadn't been caught, even though there was a high level alert for him. To him, this was extremely troublesome. Even though business had been a lot better for all six of the teams in the last couple of weeks since they framed Ketchum, the plan wasn't complete yet. Giovanni then walked into the room the leaders used for their meetings, and took his seat.
"Alright. Now that Ketchum is out of the way, we move on to Phase II."
All of the leaders grinned at this. Giovanni then continued.
"However first, I'd like to make a proposal. We've managed to accomplish a great feat by working together. I'd like to suggest that we form a permanent partnership. No more Team Rocket, Magma, Aqua, Galactic, Plasma, or Flare. From now on there is only the Evil Alliance. All who agree, raise your hands."
Silence and shock filled the room for a bit. Then Lysandre stood up and joined Giovanni.
"Our cooperation with each other has been very profitable. Team Flare will join the Evil Alliance."
Ghetsis stood up next.
"History shows that there is strength in numbers. Team Plasma will join the Evil Alliance."
Surprisingly, Maxie and Archie stood at the same time.
Maxie spoke and said, "Enough has been said. Team Magma will join the Evil Alliance."
"Same goes for Team Aqua," Archie added.
All eyes turned to Cyrus. He sighed and then said, "Even if I disagreed, the five of you against me wouldn't end well for me. The only logical option if for Team Galactic to join the Evil Alliance as well."
Giovanni then continued. "Then it's settled. From now on, the six of us are not Team Leaders, but rather the High Council members of the Evil Alliance. Now for Phase II. The Evil Alliance will now work on capturing every Legendary Pokemon and making them assist us in our bid for complete global domination."
The camera panned out to the building, and six evil laughs were heard, and only Arceus knew how bad this was going to get.
Sorry for the shorter than usual chapter, but I've had a lot of school stuff and I'm pushing my luck as it is staying up kinda late to complete a chapter this long. Also, just a warning, I may be a bit less frequent with releasing new chapters soon. I'm going to be participating in a big school activity, and it along with homework will eat up a large amount of time. So, sorry about that. Anyways, please review and all that stuff. MCRasengan out. Peace!
