I don't own Pokémon

" Feels weird to be back in the city" Ash said walking alongside his friends while Pikachu rode on his head and Eevee in his arms.

" Ya being in the wilderness was great but it's kind of nice to be in civilization again" Misty said her arms behind her head.

" To be honest I like the wilderness, the constant fresh air is great" Ace said also carrying his Eevee in his arms.

" And it's nice for our Pokémon since they feel more at home in the wild and get a lot more exercise than they do in the city" Kurugaya said knowing the positive effect of being in the wilderness had for their Pokémon.

" Still the food you get from the Pokémon center cant' be beat, I want to have huge meal when we get their don't you Pikachu" Ash asked his partner.

" I want ketchup" Pikachu replied with smile.

" I want a hotdog" Misty said.

" I want a deep dish extra chees pizza" Brock said.

" I want fries," Gabite said happily waving his arms.

" A salad would be nice" Kurugaya said.

" Spaghetti is what it want, what do you want Eevee" Ace asked the Pokémon in his arms.

" I want to share spaghetti with you" ' and hopefully use it as an means of growing my relationship with Ace' Eevee thought imaging herself and Ace kissing after showing a string of spaghetti.

" I want spaghetti to" Ash's Eevee said enthusiastically, getting the same idea as her sister.

" Sounds good, what's that" Ash said noticing something off in the distance.

" I think its a bridge lets get a closer look" Ace said running further ahead with his brother to get a closer look at the bridge.

" Wait for us" Misty said she, Brock and Kurugaya running after them.

" Wow look at that" Ash said amazed at the bridges sheer size.

" Awesome" Pikachu said just as amazed as his trainer.

" It is really impressive" Ace said.

" It's big" Gabite said amazed just like Ash and Pikachu.

" Boys" both Eevee's say while rolling their eyes.

" That's an amazing bridge" Misty said.

" I wonder how long it took to build" Kurugaya said knowing building a bridge as large as the one in front of them would take an enormous amount of time, money and resources, for all they knew the bridge may not have been completed yet.

" So its been completed already" Brook said getting the others attention as he was looking at a flyer in his hand. " This bridge should be able to take us all the way to sunny town without having to go around" he continued.

" Wow that's convenient" Ace said surprised at the convenience.

" That sounds great, we'll cross the bridge and get to the next town" Ash said excitedly.

" Sorry kids but the bridge isn't completely finished" a worker tells them. " You see that" he continued pointing to where the construction was still happening on the bridge.

" Guess we can't take the shortcut" Brock said.

" That's to bad, this would have saved us so much time" Kurugaya said.

" It wouldn't have done any good even if it were finished" the worker said getting their attention. " This bridge is only meant for cars" he explained.

" That's a little disappointing" Ace said in slight frustration of not being able to save some time walking across the bridge.

" Couldn't we just walk across" Ash asked the worker hoping to find a way they could travel across the bridge.

" Well you could but the bridge is ten miles long, by the time you reach the other side it would be dark" the worker replied.

" He's right it wouldn't be smart to cross during the night" Kurugaya said.

" Ten miles long" Misty said surprised.

" Of course you might be able to cross if you had bikes" the worker said.

" I thought you said the bridge isn't finished" Misty said as they saw people on bikes riding past them.

" The road isn't but the bicycle path is" the worker replied. " If you had bikes you could ride to" he continued.

" I wish we did" Ash said sadly.

" Misty I swear if you say anything about your bike I will throw you into the ocean" Ace said threateningly to Misty before she could say anything about her bike they fried, effectively shutting her up.

" Now now Ace behave you shouldn't go threatening your friends" Kurugaya said giggling into her hand.

" Fine but that doesn't mean I'm going to be nice to her if she acts out" Ace said.

" Theirs no way we can afford these" Ash said pressing his face against the glass along with Misty and Brocks, looking at a bunch of bikes that were on display.

" Got that right," Pikachu said sadly.

" I want a bike," Gabite said childishly.

" Sorry buddy we don't gave the money to buy even half a bike right now" Ace said causing the little dragon Pokémon to become sad.

" Don't be said Gabite, you'll be able to ride a bike someday I'm sure of it" Kurugaya said giving him a hug.

" We should probably head over to the Pokémon center and think of something there," Ash said taking his head away form the.

" Sound like a plan" Brock said agreeing with Ash.

" I'll definitely think of a brilliant plan when we get there" Misty said with confidence.

" So where your great idea" Ash asked Misty as they were sitting on some sofa's at the center.

" Can you be quite I'm still thinking" Misty said.

" Well you better think of one fast because we've been here for the past tow hours doing nothing but sitting around" Ace said with a tick mark as he scratched Eevee behind the ear.

" Excuse me, if you have some time would you mind helping me out" Joy asked getting the gangs attention.

" I'd be happy to help" Brock said pushing Ash out of the way so he could grab onto Joys hand. " Please let me help I love caring for Pokémon, please" he continued with a blush on his face.

" How dare you attack Ash" Ash's Eevee says as she jumped on Brocks and started to scratch at his face.

" Probably shouldn't have pushed my brother onto the ground" Ace said as he watched Brock get viscously attacked.

" Should we help him" Kurugaya asked..

" Nah he'll be fine, Brocks gone through worse" Ace said remembering all of Brocks heartbreaks.

" So what do you need our help for" Ash asked Joy ignoring the screams of help coming form his friend.

" Theirs a sick Pokémon in sunny town over the bridge that I'm really worried about" Nurse Joy said as Eevee finally stop attacking Brock and climbed back onto her trainers shoulder. " I need someone to deliver this medicine to the Pokémon on Sunny town. Normally I'd go myself but i have to much work right now to leave the center" she continued.

" It's just over the bridge right" Ash said getting a nod from Joy.

" Yes that's right" Nurse joy said with a smile.

" But we don't have any bicycles" Misty said.

" That's no problem you can use some of our bicycles" Joy said.

" Well that was convenient" Ace said smiling.

" I'm glad our problem was resolved and we get to help and innocent Pokémon in the process" Kurugaya said.

" We'll do anything we can to help a sick Pokémon" Ash said.

" The bikes are in the parking lot and thank you" Nurse Joy said as the gang started to pack their things.

" Come on Brook lets go" Ace said grabbing his friend before he could attempt to hit on Nurse Joy again.

" This is fun" Ace said as he was riding with Kurugaya and Gabite as the others rode behind him.

" We sure got lucky didn't we" Ash said.

" That's for sure" Misty said her and Brock riding on the same bike as Ash.

" I can feel the wind flowing through my hair" Pikachu said from atop Ash's head.

" This is a pretty good way to work out" Ash said with a empty soda can in his hand.

" It's a good light workout but nothing compared to out regular routine" Ace said with a bottle of orange juice.

" Of course the routines I put you two through aren't workout they're training" Kurugya said drinking a bottle of water.

" But they've brought great results both of you look a lot healthier and physically fit then before" Misty said noticing how much Ash and Ace have changed. Both look as if they lost almost all the baby fat on their bodies and seem to have more energy than before.

" Well thanks to those bikes we can get to Sunny town pretty fast" Brock said a bottle of orange juice in his hand.

" That's for sure" Misty said smiling.

" That hit the spot" Pikachu said finishing his own little drink before the gang threw their empty bottle and cans in the garbage before they got on their bikes.

" Time to hit the road" Ash said.

" Oh great trouble well at least it doesn't involve team rocket this time" Ace said noticing a gang of bike riders coming their direction.

" This is bad, we'll be losing precious time if they decide to bother us" Kurugaya said worried more about the sick Pokémon than the bike gang heading their way

" A bicycle gang" Brook said in surprise.

" A bicycle gang" Misty said afraid.

" I think we better get out of here" Brock said.

" Agreed lets go" Ace said not wanting to deal with the headache he'd get from the bicycle gang. Before they could even ride away, the gang surrounded them.

" I don't think I've seen any of you here before" the boy who looked like the leader says.

" Were not really from around here so see ya" Ash said as they were about to leave.

" Hold it" the leader said stopping them.

" God dammit" Ace said in annoyance.

" You're not going to cross this bridge, without a proper introduction" the leader said. Ash, Misty, Yellow and Brock said hello to the gang while shaking their leaders hand.

" I don't think that's what they meant guys" Ace said getting the others attention.

" That's right when we want an introduction than that means we have to have Pokémon battle" a girl with green hair said.

" Alright I accept" Ash said happy at the prospect of battling.

" Well I guess it couldn't hurt" Ace said.

" I would do anything for an introduction to a girl like you" Brock said with a blush. " Would you go out with me" Brock said suddenly in front of the girl.

" And here comes the slap" Kurugaya said knowing what would happen.

" Get lost I only care a bout my bike and my gang" the girl said after slapping Brock into the ground.

" Is that a no" Brock said sadly still hoping for a chance.

" You got shot down give up already" Ace said annoyed at his friend's persistence.

" Lets get things started" Ash said with excitement.

" So you think you can play with the big boys, I'll send you home crying, go Goolem" the leader said sending out his Goolem.

" Golem the megaton pokemon, it tumbles down mountains leaving grooves from peak to base. Stay clear of the grooves

" Imma rock ya bitches" Goolem said causing Ace and Ash to sweat drop.

" Kingler I chose you" Ash said sending Kignler.

" It's going to take more than a type advantage to beat me brat" the leader said. " Golem crush that crab into the ground with roolout " the leader said to Golem who started rolling towards Kingler.

" Kingler stop Golem with a ice beam and then knock him out with a cram hammer" Kingler shot a ice beam at Golem freezing him in place before hitting him with a crab hammer knocking him out.

" No way the boss lost" a random gangster said as their leader returned hi Goolem.

" That was amazing Kingler you've really gotten strong" Ash said praising his Kingler.

" Thanks, I'm happy to be of help" Kingler said happy to be off help with his trainer.

" Not bad but lets see you handle Cloyster" the girl said taking out her Cloyster for battle.

" Cloyster the bivalve pokemon, it's shell is extremely hard. It cannot be shattered, even with a bomb. The shell opens only when it is attack"

" Guess it's my turn" Ace said but was stopped by Misty.

" Let me handle this I know how to deal with water Pokémon" Misty said confidently.

" Misty just because your facing a water Pokémon doesn't mean you should get arrogant" Kurugaya said knowing if Misty got cocky she would be beaten in a humiliating manner.

" Don't worry I'll win" Misty said.

" A weak little girl like her is going to battle me this should be quick" the girl said arrogantly.

" Starmie go" Misty said taking out a Pokeball, but before Misty could take out Starmie Psyduck came out of his pokeball.

" My head hurts can I have an Advil" Psyduck says causing Ace, Ash and their Pokémon to sweat drop.

' How does he even know what and Advil is' Ace thought with a dumbfounded look.

" What are you doing here Psyduck I wanted Starmie not you" Misty said angrily.

" Oh sorry" Psyduck says holding onto his head.

" Whatever just give it a try" Misty said giving Spyduck a motion to get moving.

" Kay " Psyduck said walking towards Cloyster saying his name over and over in a funny manner causing the gangsters to laugh at Psyduck.

" I've never seen such a pathetic Pokémon" one of the gangsters said laughing causing Psyduck to gain a sad look.

" WHAT THE HELL'S SO FUNNY" Ace yelled at the biker gang with extreme anger causing everyone to go silent in surprise. " You call yourselves trainers and then laugh at another's Pokémon, you people are lower than scum" Ace said his Aura started to leak out.

" I agree you should all be ashamed of yourselves" Kurugaya said.

" Oh and what are you gonna do to stop us little man" the biker girl said trying to act tough but on the inside she was very afraid since she didn't know how Ace was producing his aura.

" I'm going to crush you" Ace said as he walked up to Psyduck and bent down to his level. " Sorry little buddy but I'm going to need you to back out of this kay" continued, in a calming manner to calm Psyduck down.

" Okay, thank you" Psyduck said walking back to Misty.

" Hey wait a minute this is my batt" Misty was cut off by the look in Ace's eyes that told her it'd be best if she let him do what he wanted, or else.

" Heh god luck beating my Cloyster" the girl said as Ace's Aura starts to reside.

" Talk is cheap, Beedrill lets go" Ace said sending out his Beedrill.

" Sup boss you need anything" Beedrill said.

" ya were gonna teach some biker punks a lesson in humility" Ace said.

" Lets start things up with Agility then get up close to smack brick break" Beedrill used agility to enhance his speed and then moved in close and delivered a powerful brick break cracking the ground beneath Cloyster from the impact.

" Cloyster retaliate with and ice beam" Cloyster started shooting and ice beam at Beedrill but kept missing due to Beedrill greater speed and maneuverability.

" Beedrill use pin missile and then end this with a poison jab" Beedrill launched a pin missile attack on Cloyster stopping him from continuing his ice beam attack before getting on close and knocking him out with a poison jab.

" Cloyster return" the biker girl said in defeat.

" That'll teach you" Ace says before walking towards the others. All of a sudden they started to hear sirens going of. It was team rocket who were riding on unicycles reciting their motto.

" Tierra it's been a while" Jessie said to the green haired girl as if they knew each other.

" Big jess" Tierra said with sparkling eyes.

" Your looking good chopper" James said to the leader of the gang.

" Little Jim" Chopper said also with sparkling eyes.

" Something stupid about to happen" Ace said in annoyance.

" Your right about that bro" Ash said equally annoyed, they didn't have time to deal with team rocket at the moment.

" argg we've already wasted precious time on the biker gang and now these three are here to waste even more time" Kurugaya said getting frustrated at the constant annoyances.

" We had some pretty bad reputation here in the old days" Jessie said.

" Let me guess you swung around a chain like a moron probably hit yourself with it too, and you had to use training wheel cause you were incapable of riding a two wheeler hence why you were names little Jim" Ace sad stoically already knowing were their nicknames came from.

" Wow he got it right" Tierra said dumfounded.

" Exactly" James said as if should be proud of himself.

' No wonder these two moron ended up in team rocket, their to pathetic to do anything else properly, hell they can't even steal properly' Ace and Ash thought while sweat dropping at James, who would take pride at no being capable of riding two wheeler.

" But were no longer apart of the gang were apart of team rocket" Jessie said as they took of their bicker cloths revealing their team rocket outfits.

" Team rocket" Tierra and Chopper say with sparkle in their eyes.

" But we don't have time to talk, these little pest here are always getting in our way" Jessie said turning to the others.

" We'll do anything for Jess and Jim" Chopper said enthusiastically.

" Then capture all their Pokémon" Meowth said pointing to the gang.

" Lets go" Ash said with the others right behind him.

" Should have seem something like this coming" Ace said as they got on their bike.

" Less talking and more pedaling" Kurugaya said from behind getting ready to leave as quickly as possible. Before the gang could even leave the police arrived and causing the bickers and team rocket to runaway.

" So you're just trying to deliver Pokémon medicine to Sunny town" Jenny said.

" That's right nurse joy sent us," Brock said getting on his knee and grabbing officer Jenny's hand.

" One rejection per day is enough lover boy" Ace said grabbing Brock by the collar and tossing him away from a sweat dropping office jenny.

" Well I'd love to help" Jenny said before they heard beeping sound come from Jenny's phone. " Theirs been an accident looks like I won't be able to help you kids" Jenny said before leaving.

" We better get going" Misty said.

" The faster the better, we've already had to stop one to many times" Kurugaya said as they got onto their bikes.

" It's just one problem after another" Ace said as they were now riding in a storm.

" My furs getting wet" Eevee said sitting on top of Ace's head.

" Stop complaining theirs more important things to worry about" Ash's Eevee said inside Ash's jacket with Pikachu.

' Lucky' Ace's Eevee says in slight jealousy.

" We gotta hurry" Ash said petting with all he's got.

" What's that" Misty said as they saw a part of the bridge rising.

" It's a draw bridge" Brock said answering Misty's question. " That ship is trying to take shelter in the bay" he continued noticing a ship in the water moving under the rising part of the bridge.

" Great more bad luck" Ace said a vein popping out of his head in anger.

" We have to wait" Brock said not believing they could make it.

" We can't wait any longer" Kurugaya said knowing they wasted enough precious time with the biker gang and team rocket, they couldn't afford to lose any more of their time as it is.

" She's right we can't afford to stop an sick Pokémon is counting on us" Ash saod.

" Looks like were not completely unlucky" Ash said as they jumped to see team rocket in the air with them.

" For once in your lives you guys were actually useful" Ace said as they used team rockets heads to jump onto the other side of the bridge.

" We made it sweet" Ash said going down the other side of the bridge with the other right behind him.

" I have to admit that was exciting" Kurugaya said.

" And fun" Ace said with and excited smile.

" Alright now you have to battle us" Chopper said.

' Not these guys again wasn't one loss enough' Ace thought.

" Were delivering medicine for a sick Pokémon, out of the way" Ash said.

" What, is that why your out in a storm" Tierra said suprised.

" No shit, now out the way" Ace said.

" Unbelievable, listen up guys were gonna take them their in style" Chopper said riding along Ace and the others all the way to the Pokémon center located in Sunny town.

" You made it, now this little one will be just fine" Joy said giving Shellder his medicine bringing him back to full health.

" Shellder he bivalve Pokémon, it's hard shell repels any kind of attack. It is vulnerable only when its shell is open"

" Looks like we made it" Ace said with a smile.

" I'm glad" Kurugaya said happy they were able to save Shellders life.

SLAP

They turned their head to see Brock on the ground with a slap mark on his face.

" He'll never learn" they say together before laughing out loud.

The gang were currently resting near a river from their journey. While gang Ace and Ash were training with Kurugaya to learn their next training exercise after completing their leaf exercise yesterday.

" Ok now that you two have finished with the leaf exercise we'll start you two on tree walking" Kurugaya said.

" How's it done" Ace asked curiously.

" It's done by concentrating your aura into you feet and using it to stick to the tree making it so you can walk up vertically" Kurugay explained.

" I'm guessing theirs more to it than you're letting on" Ash said.

" Right, this exercise will not be easy to master if you use to much of your aura when trying to walk up the tree you'll be rocketed off, if you use to little you'll slip and fall on your back. I won't lie this training exercise will most likely take two or three times as long as the leaf exercise mainly because it will be necessary for you to know how to tree walk as if it were second nature, I'll give you both a demonstration on how it's done" Kurugaya said running towards a tree and the running up it all the way to the top before she jumped back down and landed on her feet.

" Wow that's really amazing" Ace said in awe.

" I'm glad to see you're impressed now how about you two get started on your training you'll be spending the next two hours trying to walk up this tree using your aura" Kurugaya said signaling the twins to start the exercise. The boys spent the next two hours training to learn the tree walking exercise making little progress as of the moment falling onto their back or being rocketed off resulting in them both being covered in dirt, sweat and bruises.

" Good job you've done well for your first time" Kurugaya said.

" Thanks I'm going to cool my head" Ace said walking to a nearby river and dunking his head in.

" I think imma join you" Ash said following after his brother.

" Ahhh so much better" the boys say taking their head out of the river refreshed.

" Well we better go and meet up with the others" Ace said.

" Wow you guys seem to have been working really hard, kurugaya must be a really hard teacher" Misty said noticing that ace and Ash were drenched in sweat.

' Awesome" their Eevee think eyeing their trainers up and down.

" Of course no pain no game that and I like to see Ace sweat" Kurugaya said latching on to said boy making him blush slightly from the contact.

" Kurugaya I'm covered in sweat you shouldn't be clinging onto me like this" Ace said trying to keep his blush down.

" No worries I'm covered in sweat to, do you think you and Ash were the only ones using their time to train" Kurugaya said getting off Ace and showing him her sweat covered body that made the black t shirt she was wearing sling to her showing off her curvaceous body while making Ace go completely red in the face while Brock got a nose bleed and Ash a dust of pink on his cheeks. " so Ace do you like what you see" she asked with a mischievous smile.

" i I'm j just g going to w wash t the sweat o of m my b body" Ace stuttered leaving to wash himself before Kurugaya could tease him anymore making said girl giggle at his shyness.

" Do you really need to tease him so much" Ash asked already wearing some cleaner cloths.

" Not really but I'm still going to do it" Kurugaya said going into the tent she and Misty shared to clean herself of the sweat while changing into cleaner pair of cloths.

" Where's Pikachu going" Ash said as he watched Pikachu run though some bushes.

" Maybe he had to go to the bathroom" Gabite said tilting his head to the side.

" Nah didn't really think that's what's going on buddy, we better go after him" Ace said arriving with a clean pair of cloths at the same time Kurugaya. They quickly packed up their things and ran after Pikachu.

" Were is Pikachu running to" Misty asked.

" Don't know but we'll find out soon enough" Ash replied.

" Maybe he saw another Pikachu and ran after him" Kurugaya said.

" Wow you were dead on" Ace said arriving to see a herd of Pikachu playing together in a field.

" Amazing there are so many Pikachu's" Misty said.

" They must be all wild Pikachu's" Brock said.

" They're all so cute" Kurugaya said.

" Hi guys" Pikachu said running up to the other Pikachu but stopped looking around for something. " Hey remember me" Pikachu said waving to a younger Pikachu, but all the other Pikachu were wary of him so they went to hide in the bushes.

" Didn't see that coming" Ace said not expecting the other Pikachu's to be so weary.

"Pikachu isn't being accepted since he's new, plus theirs the fact he has our sent on him so they know he isn't a wild Pikachu that's probably why they're so weary of him" Kurugaya said.

" What did I do" Pikachu asked sadly. The little Pikachu that he waved to though ran up to him without any fear. The little Pikachu then brought his tail forward. " This is how we say hello" he said moving his tail a little.

" I see" Pikachu said as he shakes his tail with the little Pikachu's. Which allowed the worry all the other Pikachu's had to leave as they went up and said hello to Ash's Pikachu.

" They finally excepted Pikachu as a part o their group" Brock said happily.

" I guess they know he isn't a threat to them" Kurugaya said.

" Hey I want to be part of your group too" Ash said running towards the Pikachu.

" Guess he still has room to improve" Ace said knowing Ash's would drive the Pikachu away.

" Hey Ash" Pikachu said waving happily to his trainer.

" Run away it's a human" the others Pikachu's say running to hide in the bushes.

" Hey theirs no reason to run away" Ash said as Pikachu again became sad.

" That's enough Ash" Misty said as she and the others walked up to Ash.

" Why" Ash asked slightly confused.

" It's because the Pikachu are afraid of you" Brock said.

" They haven't seen humans all to much so they're probably very wary of us" Ace said Kurugaya agreeing

" Man what a let down" Pikachu said sadly.

" Sorry buddy I shouldn't have been so impulsive" Ash said apologetically.

" That's all right I know you meant well" Pikachu said.

" Though this place must be a paradise for the Pikachu" Misty said.

" It's a forest that people don't really go to deep into so it makes sense it would be a paradise fro the Pikachu" Ace said.

" They definitely don't have to worry about any poachers or trainers trying to capture them all that much" Kurugaya said. All of a sudden the little Pikachu from before fell into the river.

" It's one of the Pikachu's from before" Ash said as he and the others ran after him.

" We have to do something" Brock said.

" He's heading for the water fall" Misty said in worry.

" Oh no" Yellow said worried the little Pokémon would get hurt.

" Danm this is really bad" Ace said in frustration.

" I'm not gonna let him fall" Ash's Pikachu said before he jumped into the river after the little Pikachu surprising everyone.

" No they're going to fall at this rate" Gabite said worrying for his brother figure.

" That moron shouldn't have been so impulsive" Ace's Eevee said worried.

" He should have waited for us to help" Ash's Eevee said. Then all of a sudden all the Pikachu from before came and made grabbed the two in the river by grabbing onto each other tail and pulling them out of the river.

XXXXX

The gang watched as the other Pikachu's took care of Ash's Pikachu after he saved the little Pikachu from falling to his death.

" Here you go" the little Pikachu said as he gave Ash's Pikachu and apple when he finally woke up.

" Thanks I rally appreciate it" Ash's Pikachu said taking the apple. All the other Pikachu threw Pikachu into the air continuously out foo happiness.

XXXXX

Everyone was watching as the Pikachu sat around a tree stump and sang in harmony swaying his or her head side to side.

" Those Pikachu sure are having fun" Misty said as she and the others watched the Pikachu form behind the bushes.

" Definitely looks like it" Ash said.

" Guys dinner will be ready in a few minutes" Ace said helping Brock finish everyone's dinner.

" Alright we'll be there" Kurugaya said.

" Looks like Pikachu sure is fitting in well" Brock said.

" Ya it does" Ash said with a smile.

" I think it's the best thing in the world for Pikachu to be with his own kind" Brock said causing Ash to gain a sad look.

' Ash, danm it Brock can't you be quite for once' Ace thought noticing Ash's said look, knowing what his brother was probably thinking at the moment thanks to Brock.

XXXXX

" Man I'm full" Ace said rubbing his stomach.

" This was really god you two" Misty said complementing Brock and Ace.

" Thanks" both, replied happy for the praise.

" Ash are you ok" Ace asked his brother who had yet to even take a bite of his food.

" Is something bothering you" Misty asked.

" You don't look so good man, do you fell ok" Brock asked.

" Everything's fine don't worry" Ash said finally eating some of his dinner.

" Are you sure Ash you don't seem like yourself" Kurugaya asked.

"I'm just fine alright guys theirs nothing to worry about" Ash said.

XXXXX

" So tell me what's bugging you" Ace asked his brother after everyone else had fallen asleep.

" Nothings wrong" Ash replied, but his brother was not convinced.

" Ash I've known you my entire life, I can tell when you're lying. I'm your bother if you need to talk to me about something all you need to do is ask" Ace said causing his brother to sigh.

" I've been thinking about what Brock said earlier today" Ash said.

" You mean about how Pikachu should be allowed to live with his own kind" Ace said.

" Ya, I've been thinking about weather or not I should let Pikachu go, he's obviously more happy with the other Pikachu's than he is with me" Ash said sadly.

" Well I don't really know weather he's happier here than with you, after all I can't really get into Pikachu's head, but what I can say is that you two have a really strong bond. If you believe that Pikachu is happier here than it's your decision to let him go free, do what you think is right. You never know Pikachu may come back running to you, but regardless of what happens I'll stand by whatever decision you decide to make" Ace said with a comforting smile.

" Thanks, that really helped" Ash said smiling before they heard all the Pikachu screaming so loud they woke up the others.

" What's going on" Kurugaya said jumping out of her sleeping bag in fright.

" What is that sound" Brock said getting up with Misty.

" Who the hell has the balls to disturbed my beauty sleep" Ace's Eevee yelled in anger.

" Calm down sis" Ash's Eevee said.

" Something's going on with the Pikachu, I bet it's team rocket" Ace said. " Wait is Gabite still asleep seriously" he said sweat dropping at his partner.

" Seriously he's asleep at a time like this" Ace's Eevee said angrily as she walked up to Gabite and kicked him awake.

" What, what's going on" Gabite said looking around in confusion.

" Pikachu's in trouble we have to go" Ace said getting the Dragon Pokémon to adopt a look of surprise.

" Wait for me bro imma coming buddy" Gabite said running ahead of everyone else.

" Seriously" Ace said dumfounded at his starters excessive behavior.

" Who could have done such a thing" Misty said as they see all the Pikachu including Ash's stuck in net.

" Who do you think, there are only three idiots I know who would do this" Ace said with a vein popping out in anger.

Then team rocket showed up and did their usual motto.

" Pikachu break the ropes with an electric shock" Misty said but the shock had no affect.

" Their no match fro out new insulated net, you might as well just give up" James said.

" It's made form material that absorbs electricity" Jessie said.

" Let them go or else" Ash said angrily.

" Now way" Team rocket say sticking their tongue's out.

" Wow no wonder their at the bottom of team rocket, their practically children in in grown bodies" Kurugaya said unimpressed by team rockets behavior.

" I suggest you let the Pikachu's go or else Gabite my accidently burn you" Ace said with anger.

" We're not gonna let that happen" James said shooting a net at them.

" Your not gonna get away with this" Misty said angrily from inside the net.

" Time to make out get away" Jessie said as they started to leave carrying the net full of Pikachu connected to their air balloon.

" Gabite and Eevee use dig to get out and then take the net off us" Ace said to his Pokémon who dug underground and repapered outside the net, taking it off of the gang.

" heh looks like Pikachu isn't gonna let them get what they want" Ace said watching Pikachu make team rocket look like even bigger fools.

" Guys jump down onto the net" Ash said as Kurugaya, Brock and Misty stretched the net for the Pikachu to fall on.

" Eevee's and Gabite get ready to blow team rocket sky high as soon as all the Pikachu are safe" Ace said.

" Right" All three of them as both Eevee's started charging up their Shadow ball attack while Gabite got ready to unleash a flamethrower.

" Pikachu jump down here now" Ash said as he noticed that his Pikachu was the only one who had yet to jump.

" Alright bro I'm coming down" Pikachu said jumping and landed on the net allowing Eevee's to launch a shadow ball and Gabite unleashed his strongest flamethrower. Causing a huge explosion that blasted team rocket of into the horizon.

" You guys were awesome" Pikachu's said walking up to his family.

" Thanks buddy" Ash said picking up his partner.

" Oh hey guys I'm glad you alright" Pikachu said as he get out of Ash's grasp and went over to the other Pikachu to celebrate.

" You really did train Pikachu well" Brock said praising Ash for how well her raised his partner.

" That's for sure" Kurugaya said knowing from helping them train how powerful Ash's Pikachu has become.

" You did great Ash" Misty said turning to Ash who began to walk away

" So I guess you made your decision huh bro" Ace says walking behind Ash.

" What decision" Gabite asked his trainer.

" Ash has decided to leave Pikachu here" Ace replied.

" What but why" Ash's Eevee said in surprise.

" Because he'll be happier here than with me" Ash said with a few tears coming down his face.

" Ash" Eevee said sadly knowing how painful his decision to think of Pikachu's happiness over his own must be for him.

' He's a really good trainer to be able to put his Pokémon's happiness above his own' Kurugaya though knowing how painful his decision must be for him.

" Are you really gonna leave him here Ash" Brock asked his friend.

" Yup" Ash repleid reaching there camp area and put out the fire before packing up and leaving.

" Ash this is crazy" Misty said not agreeing with her friend's idea.

" My minds made up" Ash said as he picks up his bag.

" Hey were are you guys going" Pikachu asked coming out of the bushes.

" Pikachu I think it's be best if you stayed here with your own kind" Ash said getting on knee level with Pikachu.

" You'll be much happier here in the forest with the other Pikachu's" Ash said.

" What do you mean" Pikachu's asked confused at what his trainer was saying.

" Goodbye" Ash said putting his hand on Pikachu's head before he got up and started to run away with a tears falling down his face.

" Ash" Brock called out as they finally caught up to Ash.

" Why are you doing this" Misty asked him.

" Pikachu will be happier here that travelling with me that's why" Ash said with his eyes being shadowed by his hat.

" Oh really" Pikachu said showing up.

" Pikachu" Ash said surprised especially since he was sure the others and Pikachu's behind him.

" Bye I hope we see each other again" the little Pikachu said to Ash's Pikachu,

" So do I" Pikachu said before he ran towards Ash and jumped into his arms and shocked him. " This is for trying to leave me behind bitch" he continued laughing as he stared at the crispy Ash.

" Sorry buddy, but I'm glad you decided to some with me" Ash said giving his partner a hug.

" I am too," Pikachu said before he felt a dark aura and turned to see a puffed up Eevee staring angrily behind him.

" Die" Eevee said as she started chasing Pikachu around as everyone laughed at the little electric types misfortune.

" What's wrong Pikachu" Ash asked his partner who was staring somewhere before he ran off.

" Is that an Eevee" Ace asked as they looked at a brown Pokémon tied to a tree.

" I think it is" Kurugaya said wondering why Eevee was tied to a tree.

" But why is he tied up like that" Misty said picking up the little Eevee.

" He must have been abandoned" Brock said.

" Well at least it's not the same as when Damien abandoned Charmander" Ace said looking at the bowl of food and water.

" I can't believe someone just left him hear alone" Ash said.

" No way how can someone be so cruel" Misty said.

" I want to keep him" Misty said hugging the little Pokémon tightly.

" I don't think that's a good idea misty" Kurugaya said pointing to the Eevee collar.

" Stone town, that's the place on the foot of Evolution Mountain" Brock said looking at the collar.

" Guess our next stop wonder if we can get any stones for future use" Ash said.

XXXXX

" I really want a vaporeon" Misty said holding tightly to the little Eevee as they were walking through stone town.

' Being a Vaporeon would be nice' Ace's Eevee thinks to herself.

" Seems like someone wants their own Eevee" Ash said teasingly to Misty.

" Can't really blame her they are very cute Pokémon" Kururgaya said petting the Eevee in Misty's arms.

" So that's why she won't let go of him" Brock said.

" Well if you really want something you have to go for it" Misty said.

" Were here" Brock said stopping in front of a big mansion before they went in to find everyone in the backyard.

" Looks like a yard party" Brock said.

" Seems like fun" Ash said looking around noticing all the trainers with their Pokémon out.

" Definitely an interesting place" Ace said noticing that all the Pokémon before them are Pokémon that require evolution stones in order to evolve.

" Hey guys look there" Misty said watching a Poliwhirl evolve into a Poliwrath. " That was amazing" she said amazed.

" Piliwrath the tadpole pokemon, with extremely tough muscles it can keep swimming without rest"

" It's just like how Growlithe evolved into Arcanine" Kururgaya said.

" They've all been evolved using those stones" Brock said looking at all the evolved Pokémon.

' Maybe it's time for me to let Eevee evolve, they've pretty much earned it by now and learned all the useful moves she could in her current evolved state' Ace thought wondering weather he should let his own take the chance to evolve.

" It's all so amazing" Misty said.

" This is a dream come true for a Pokémon breeder when it comes to evolution" Kurugaya said looking at all the Pokémon.

" Is that Eevee" a boy with spiky yellow hair said.

" Thank you for finding Eevee for us" a boy with blue hair said taking Eevee form Misty.

" This is great now we can continue the show with our star" a boy with red hair said.

" Hey Mickey Eevee's come back " the one with the yellow hair said calling fro a little boy with brown hair over to him.

" How could you loss him you've got to be more careful" the one with red hair said in a scolding manner.

" You'll lose your trainer qualification next time" the one with blue hair said.

" Did Eevee really escape but he was tied to a post" Misty said as Ace and Kurugaya were looking at her like and idiot, it was pretty obvious what happened.

" Why did you bring him back" Mickey said surprising the gang.

' Poor kid must be being pressured into being a Pokémon trainer by his brother even though he doesn't want to' Ace thought feeling a little sorry for the kid, no one liked to have their life chosen for them.

" Listen Mickey one day you'll be a Pokémon trainer just like us" the one with yellow hair said.

" Do you really think you can win your first battle with a un evolved Eevee" the one with blue hair said.

" We one our first battle because we evolved all of our Eevees" the one whit red hair said.

" But I don't care about battling" Mickey said in protest.

" I don't care" all three of his brothers say angrily along with their own eeveelutions.

" Man their pretty scary" Ash said with a nervous smile.

" Meh I've seen scarier" Ace said not being affected much.

" Everyone waiting to see which evolution you make your Eevee evolve into" the one with blue hair said.

" You have three choices, which you do you think is the strongest evolved form of Eevee" the one with the yellow hair asked.

" We want to know what you think of our Pokémon" the one with the red hair asked. They then proceeded to explain why their Pokémon were better than the other and started to argue over it.

" This family sure is competitive that's a lot of pressure to put on the little guy" Brock said as they tried to ask Mickey which Pokémon was better.

" Competitive may be an understatement" Ace said.

" Hey give the kid a break, isn't he a little young to battle" Ash said getting their attention.

" But were throwing this party just for him and his Eevee" the one with yellow hair said.

" You have to start training early to become a master" the one with blue hair said.

" Ya one of these days you'll turn that Pikachu into a Raichu and those two Eevee into one of their three evolutions" the one with Red hair said looking at their Pokémon.

" Well maybe Eevee if she wants to but I don't know about Pikachu" Ash said looking at his two Pokémon.

" Do you need a stone" the guy with yellow hair asked showing them an assortment of evolution stones.

" Wow you've collected a lot of them" Brock said impressed.

" That's what out town is known for but you can't mine all of them" they said.

" Hey isn't that a special addition of Pokémon friends" Brock asked.

" We used it to plan todays special evolution party" the boy with blue hair replied.

" We wanted to bring together all the Pokémon trainers who specialize in stone induced evolution" the boy with red hair said.

" Why don't you guys join our club, you can have a stone or two if you like" the one with yellow hair said.

" Don't worry we have some of our own stones but we could use a leaf and moon stone for later if you have some" Ace said hoping to get lucky.

" Sure thing here" the guy with yellow hair said tossing him the stones.

" Thanks, hey Ash don't you think it's time to let our Eevees evolve" Ace asked his brother who looked at his Eevee to see if she her giving him a pleading look.

" Ya definitely they've earned it" Ash said as Ace took out all the stones he had.

" Gather around everyone were about to see two Pokémon evolve" the guy with yellow hair said getting a crowd together.

" Alright now you two, I'm going to place down one of each stone we have. It'll be up to you who you evolve to and weather you wan to evolve" Ace said to the Eevee's placing the stones in front of them waiting to see their decision.

" Have you decide who you gonna evolve into sis" Ash's Eevee asked her sister.

" ya I'm going to be a Vaporeon, what about you" Ace's Eevee replied.

" I'm going to be a Flareon" Ash's Eevee said before they both nod and touch the stone fro their perspective evolution causing them both to evolve.

" Yay we evolved now we can step up our game" they both yelled happily before they jumped into their trainers arms and started to nuzzle them with great affection. " We love you" they both said giving their trainer a kiss on their cheeks much to their embarrassment.

" Vaporeon the bubble jet Pokémon, it prefers beautiful shores. With cells similar to water molecules, it could melt in water. This Vaporeon has unlocked the egg move hydro pump and learned water pulse"

" Flareon the flame Pokémon, it has a flamesac inside it's body. After inhaling deeply, it blows flames of nearly 3,000 degrees Fahrenheit. This Flaroen has unlocked the egg move overheat and learned flamethrower"

" Well it looks like those two are happy but what about Pikachu and Vulpix" the boy with yellow hair asked.

" Pikachu wants to prove that he can be just as strong as a Raichu regardless of him being Raichu's pre evolved form so evolving him would be pointless since he would refuse too and beside if my partner likes the way he is now its not my right to force him to evolve" Ash said getting a nod from the Eevee brother.

" Vulpix isn't really my Pokémon, I'm just taking care of her for a friend of mine so I don't really have the right to make her evolve especially without permission" Brock said.

" I see, well that makes sense. Lets get the main event started" the Guy with yellow hair said before team rocket suddenly showed up.

" Wow they just took pathetic to a whole new level" Ace said as team rocket began stuffing themselves with the food meant for the party.

" Keep you eyes open guys their trouble" Ash said.

" Smokescreen" James said getting his wheezing to cut off everyone's vision.

" Pidgeotto gust attack" Ash said sending out his flying types who blew the smoke away.

" They took all of our Pokémon" Ash said in worry.

" Well standing here won't help we have to find them and fast" Ace said with the others agreeing with him.

" The stones and the food are gone too" the brothers say.

" Seriously they stole the food too, that's just lame" Ace said face faulting at team rockets stupidity.

" Team rocket took everything" Ash said.

" The food the stones and the Pokémon" Brock said.

" The balloon's up there, we have to get them before they get away" Kurugaya said spotting them in the sky.

" Pidgetto attack" Ash said as Pidgetto popped the balloon causing it to fall.

" It's empty, wow never thought those three would actually show some intelligence" Ace said surprised as they checked the balloon.

" Pidgetto go find team rocket" Ash said as Pidgetto flew off to search.

" Fearow you go as well" Ace said sending out his Fearow who followed after Pidgeotto.

XXXXX

" Wartortle use water gun" Ash said as he and the others arrive just before team rocket used all three stones on Eevee.

" Now we can rescue the Pokémon" Ace said.

" Not so fast" Jessie said grabbing Eevees cage.

" Eevee" Mickey said worried for his friend.

" How did you find us" James asked.

" Ya it's the first time we didn't mess up" Meowth said.

" Horsea just spit out a trail of ink to show us the way" Misty said.

" Wow and I thought our luck was shit" Ace said.

" You got to be kidding me," James said in frustration.

" Guess were just gonna have to settle for Eevee" Jessie said.

" Forget it you old hag" Misty said causing Jessie to gain a tick mark.

" What did you just call me" Jessie said angrily.

" Old, because you are old" Kurugaya said causing Jessie face to turn red form anger.

" That's it I'm going to crush you brats" Jessie said sending out her Arbok out for battle while James took out Weezing.

" Show those puny little punks who's in charge" Jessie said angrily.

" Bring it" Ace and Ash say ready to fight but were stopped when one of the Eevee brother put his hand out to stop the.

" That's our brothers Eevee, it's our job to stop them," the one with Yellow hair said. The fight looked to be in their favor for the first few minutes but all three of the Eevee brothers starters were overwhelmed by team rockets Pokémon and beaten.

" You can't win were the best" James said arrogantly forgetting that they never once beat the gang.

" Horsea ink them" Misty said getting Horsea's to spit ink in Jessie face causing her to let go of Eevees cage, landing in Mickey's arms.

" Lets end this Gabite flamethrower/ Pikachu thunderbolt" Ace and Ash say as their partners burnt team rocket to a crisp causing them to scream in pain.

" No were not gonna loss again" Jessie said.

" Especially on our first day as champions" James said.

" Lets get them" Meowth said pointing to the gang.

" They still want to fight" Misty said in surprise.

" Are they masochists" Kurugaya said wondering is team rocket secretly liked pain.

" Well they have survived much worse it's not all that surprising their so resilient" Ace said.

" It's time to finish them off, victory shall be ours" James and Jessie say.

" Eevee get ready its time for our first real battle" Mickey said as he got Eevee out of his cage.

" go get them little guy" Vaporeon said cheering him on as she stood beside Ace.

" Show them what an Eevee is about" Flareon cheering from beside Ash.

" He sure is brave" Misty said proudly.

" That's for sure" Kurugaya said equally proud.

" Go get them" Ash said.

" Show them whose boss" Pikachu said.

" Beat them up" Gabite said childishly.

" Go get them little man" Ace said with a smile form seeing the bravery the kid was showing.

" Eevee take down" Mickey said as Eevee charged at team rocket and slammed them into the horizon with his body.

" Danm he's strong for a little guy" Ace and Ash say together dumbfounded at that Eevees strength.

" Your the greatest Eevee" Mickey said giving the little Pokémon a hug.

" You did great Mikey" Ash said.

" Way to go I'm really impressed" Ace said.

" That was really cool" Misty said.

" You and Eevee make the perfect team" Kurugaya said with a smile

" That was beautifully done" Brock said.

" He definitely has potential," Pikachu said.

" Do it again" Gabite said excitedly.

" They definitely have potential" Vaporeon said.

" Especially Eevee" Flareon said agreeing with her sister.

" Mickey wining your first battle by yourself that's incredible" the boy with yellow hair said.

" And without even evolving your Eevee" the one with blue hair said.

" Even though you don't want to battle you did great" the one with red hair said.

" Thanks, I've decided to become an Eevee trainer" Mikey said to his brother who seemed to be ok with his idea.

" Lets celebrate out brother first victory" the boy with yellow hair said, everyone cheered in agreement as they began the party once again.

Till next time
