Ethan bought extra pokeballs and made his way to Violet City. He made it on time and had 15 minutes to spare before he left for Pewter City.

Ethan called his cousin and told him to meet him at the Pewter City Museum at noon the next day. Now everything was set and he soon departed for Pewter City.

(Kanto)

When he arrived, he stayed in Pewter City throughout the night. Then, once it was close to noon, he went to the museum and he paid his admission to the museum. His arms were sore from carrying the Lugia yesterday.

"Jeez it's a newborn but it was so heavy."

When his cousin and his buddies arrived he paid for them all. They had a chat in the back of the room.

"Good thing it's loud in here," Ethan told the group.

"Want do you want Ethan?" his cousin James asked.

"Yea and why are we here too?" a talking Meowth asked.

"Well, my brother invited me to a region your boss would be very interested in," Ethan told them.

He gave them 3 tickets to a region called Alola.

"Alola huh" James' female companion questioned.

"It's also a very beautiful place if I say so myself. And there are many version of Kanto pokémon there. Here are some pictures of them and Alola itself." Ethan replied.

"It's like a tropical paradise" everyone exclaimed.

"So? What do you say?"

"We're going to Alola" everyone chanted.

"Waabaa!" A Wobbuffet suddenly screamed. The girl put the Wobbuffet back in its Pokeball.

"Good. Now is it ok if you wait until the day my family leaves to do anything evil in Alola? They don't know that I'm doing this."

The group whispered to each other leaving Ethan on edge.

"I'll pay for your first week there. But it's only for thing Non–Team Rocket related."

They began whispering again. Then, James comes up to Ethan.

"It's a deal cousin," James exclaimed.

"Alright, they leave in 8 days. After the 8 days are up you guys are good to do whatever you want in Alola."

They said bye and parted ways.

Now, he had to leave for the airport in Viridian City. It was 2 in the afternoon and his flight was at four.

"Good thing it's close to here" Ethan sighed.

He walked up to the Pokémon Center to have his Pokémon healed and eat because airport food is way overpriced. He checked in and noticed that someone familiar was right next to him.

After making out who it was, Ethan's jaw dropped to the floor.

"You're… you're Ash Ketchum!" Ethan stuttered.

"Yup that's me" Ash replied with his sweat dropping.

"I'm sorry about what happened in Kalos. I was rooting for ya all the way."

"It's fine, anyways I can say I still need room for improvement."

"Anyways what are you doing here?"

"Well, I won a lottery to Alola and so I'm going to stay there for the day."

"That's cool." Ethan face palmed himself in his mind. "Jeez you're doing great Ethan keep it up!" he thought. "Anyways I'm actually planning to journey throughout the Alola region myself." Ethan finally told him.

"Are you really?" Ash asked.

"Yea and maybe you would like to travel along with me?"

"That would be great." Never would've Ethan expected that his idol Ash Ketchum would like to travel with him. This was well worth the 1 day stay at Kanto.

"Well," Ethan managed to cough up. "I was also planning to go to the Pokémon School they had there and learn for a while. Maybe you'd like to do it too? It's run by the professor of the Alola region."

That last part caught Ash's attention and he thought about it.

"You know what? Let's give it a try" Ash finally replied. "What do you say Pikachu?

"Pika!" the pokémon cried.

"I take that as a yes. We're going to the Pokémon School with you" Ash answered.


(Author's Note)

Ash got introduced. Yay.

James sounds familiar to you? If you're thinking of that James...

I guess you know now what Ethan is planning.

Thanks for sticking around and have a great day ~ Bad Luck Andrew
