Kindergarten Chaos!

Right now, Ash is about to battle a woman that had challenged him while the team was heading towards Cyllage City for him next gym badge. Her name was Penelope and she looked to be around her early twenties. She was about a foot taller than Ash, had long pink hair, and her partner was a Sylveon. Before coming to Kalos, Ash researched a bit about the new Pokemon that he could encounter here, he learned a bit about Sylveon before coming, like how it's another evolution of Eevee, and a fairy type. He also researched a bit about fairy types as well.

"You know how the rules go, I beat you in a battle to see which one of us is stronger!" said Penelope.

"Of course I know that, I've done this more times than I can count!" replied Ash.

"I can't wait to see how this battle will turn out!" cheered Boinne.

"Dedenne!" cheered Dedenne.

"It's cheer that Ash is going to win, after all the battles we've seen him in there's no way he can loss!" smiled Serena.

Clemont walked up to Ash to give him a bit of advice, "Hey Ash, did you know that Sylveon is a fairy type Pokemon?"

"Yeah, I did a bit of research before I came here to Kalos about it's Pokemon. Sylveon is in fact the second fairy type Pokemon I've seen in person so far." replied Ash.

"Who's the first?" asked Boinne.

"Dednne, he's half fairy type." Ash answered.

"That's right!" said Clemont.

"Well you certainly know a thing or two about fairy types, I'm guessing you not from Kalos, right?" asked Penelope

"That's right, I've only been here for a few weeks!" answered the raven haired teen.

"Well let's see how good you are. I'm Penelope by the way."

"My name's Ash, let's see how you measure up to me!" replied the Pallet Town trainer.

Ash called out Pikachu to see how he does against a new type that they've never faced before. Pikachu jumped of Ash's shoulder and landed on the ground, ready to fight.

Serena's pokeball that held Fennekin started to shake and he it let Fennekin came out.

"Don't tell me, you want to watch the battle, right?" asked Serena.

"Fennekin!" replied her starter.

"Ok, enjoy the show!" Serena smiled.

"Promise me something..." said Penelope

"Sure, what is it?" Ash asked.

"If I beat you in our battle, your coming with me, handsome!" she winked.

"WWWHHHAAAAAAT!?" shouted Serena.

"Sounds interesting. Ok, I promise." replied Ash.

"WHAT! Is she serious, her and Ash? No way!" said Serena. She couldn't believe what she was hearing. Penelope looked to be about in her twenties while Ash was still fourteen. How can she make that work?

"Ohhh, someone's jeleous!" laughed Bonnie.

"Please don't start now!" sighed Serena.

"Pikachu use Electro Ball."

Pikachu started to form a ball of electricity on his tail and it started to grow bigger and bigger, when it was finally done, he launched it at Sylveon.

"Counter it with Moon Blast" said Penelope.

Sylveon started to gather energy into her mouth and it started to form into a small pink ball that she fired at the Electro Ball.

The two attacks met in the middle and their both caused an explosion when they made contact. The smoke covered everybody's view of the field. But Ash knew how to see pass the smoke!

He closed his eyes and used his aura powers to help him and Pikachu out. He was having a difficulty time figuring this out, but he was able to do it and he could see the aura of every livig thing in the area. He found both Penelope and Sylveon meaning that he knew just where to attack.

"Iron Tail." he ordered.

Pikachu quickly made his tail glow for a little bit and turned it to steel. Once he finished with that he jumped into the air and came down with his tail of steel hitting Sylveon on the head, which caused her to yell in pain.

The smoke soon cleared to show Sylveon shaking her head in pain.

"Sylveon! Are you ok?" asked her trainer.

"Sylveon." she replied.

"Ok, use Fairy Wind."

Sylveon closer her eyes and started to serach for her feelings. They soon started to appear in the air as glowing blue sparkles, she serached even more and it then created wind that blew the blue sparkles at Pikachu.

"Use your tail to jump!" said Ash.

Pikachu just leaned back while using his tail for support. His tail was able to give him enough strenght to use as a spring and he launched himself into the air from the impact of his tail. The Fairy Wind attack completely missed Pikachu by a long shot and was no where near him now.

"Thunderbolt." said Ash.

Pikachu charged up some electricity and fired it at Sylveon on the ground.

"Dodge it!" called Penelope.

Sylveon avoided the attack just in time as it hit the ground that she was standing on. The mark that it left showed both her and her trainer thay needed to be careful if they plan on winning this battle.

"Use Moon Blast again!" called Penelope.

Sylveon once again started to gather energy from her mouth as it took the form of a pink ball again, but this time she was going to make it bigger so that it would do more damage, giving her a better chance. She then fired it and it headed towards Pikachu, but Ash knew just what to do!

"Iron Tail." he said.

Pikachu turned his tail into meatl again to use against the Moon Blast that was heading his way. He was able to use his tail of steel to cut the attack in half as the two pieces flew past him and exploded.

"Now use Attract." ordered Penelope.

Sylveon had the backgound of her turn magicly and sparkley with hearts, she then winked at Pikachu creating a small pink heart that approached him. Pikachu stopped and started to feel strange, he felt his heart beating very fast, his body getting warm, his cheeks burning up, he look at Sylveon with hearts in his eyes. He was in love!

"Oh no!" said Ash.

"Pikachu has fallen in love with Sylveon!" Clemont pointed out.

Serena looked at Fennekin for a moment and saw what she expected. Fennekin was looking very sad that how things turned around during the battle. Her ears dropped with sadness, and the smile on her face was turned upside down when she saw Pikachu fall for Sylveon.

"Don't worry, Fennekin, that's just how Attract works." said Serena to make her feel better.

Fennekin gave her trainer a small smile, but it soon disappeared. Serena didn't blame her, if Ash started to act like how Pikachu was acting right now, then she would defiantly feel the same. Lucky Ash isn't the smartest when it comes to romance.

"Pikachu can you hear me? Snap out of it!" called Ash.

Pikachu just couldn't listen as Attract was too strong and had him fall head over heels for Sylveon.

"Now use Draining Kiss!" ordered the pink haired woman.

Sylveon used her ribbion like feelers to grab Pikachu and bring him closer to her, se looked at him for a few seconds as he was trying to get closer to her due to his attraction towards her. She then preformed the attack and kissed him. Not on the forehead, not on the cheek, but on the lips!

She closed the distance between her lips and his to drain more energy from there, she kept her lips attacted to his to drain more energy, she wanted to get as much as possibly. Plus, she thought Pikachu was kinda cute!

The kalos team watched a Pkachu was getting his power drained by a kiss. While Ash knew that it was making things tough for him, Serena knew that her Fennekin must be feeling even worst than before. She was right, she looked down at her starter and thought that she saw a tear run down her cheek.

"It's ok, Fennekin. It's just an attack, not actually a real kiss." she said while rubbing the fire starter's head.

Sylveon finally decided that was enough and separated her lips from Pikachu's to get some air. She then put him down on the ground, after receiving all that energy, but he was still in love with her!

"Pikachu, can you hear me?" called Ash. But again he got no response.

Ash knew that he needed to turn the tables on this battle soon or thing will not end well for Pikachu. He started to think on how he could snap Pikachu out of being in love with Sylveon! He then remembered a strategy that he already used here in Kalos, he just hoped it would work again.

"Pikachu, use Electro Ball and shoot it up into the air!" he said.

Pikachu may still be affected by Attract, but he was still able to follow ordered. He shoot a ball of electricity up into the air just like Ash told him to. It got higher and higher as it kept on going, until it couldn't keep going up and started to come back down again. It make direct contact with Pikachu and caused another explosion. Once the smoke cleared, it showed Pikachu completely normal again, no longer being affected by Attract.

"Alright, now we can make things easier for us!" cheered Ash.

"Incredible, you were able get rid of the effects of Attract with a strategy you already used! Ash, you truly are something!" said Clemont.

Fennekin was the most pleased out of everyone, now Pikachu won't be acting lovey dovey around Sylveon, even though she knew that was the effects of Attract.

"Now we can get back in action! Use Quick Attack." said Ash.

Pikachu started to run up to Sylveon with super speed while having his body being surrounded by white aura.

"Sylveon, you use Quick Attack as well!" said Penelope.

Sylveon also started running up to Pikachu with white aura surrounding her body.

The two Pokemon started heading towards each other with incredible speed, aiming to cause more to the other. When they were close enough, Ash called out him next order.

"Jump."

Pikachu leaped into the air right before he could hit Sylveon with his attack, the Quick Attack gave him extra height and he was now in the sky!

"What!?"said Penelope.

"Thunder Punch!"

Pikachu covered his fist with electricity and started to fall towards the fairy type evolution of Eevee to land the attack.

"Dodge it!" called Sylveon's pink haired trainer.

Sylveon jumped to the side to avoid the attack, which resulted in Pikachu using Thunder Punch on the ground.

"Use your feelers and grab Pikachu." ordered Penelope.

Sylveon wrapped her feelers around Pikachu's body to trap him from going anyway for now.

"Now smash him into the ground!"

Sylveon lifted the electric mouse Pokemon and was ready to smash him face first into the dirt.

"Thunderbolt." called Ash.

Pikachu charged up electricity and used it on Sylveon to deliver damage, since Sylveon was so close it was next to impossible to escape the attack. She cried out in pain as she was shocked with electricity from Pikachu, it was a powerful attack, but she somehow managed to hold on!

Pikachu was able to get out her her grip and backed away just in case.

"Sylveon, are you ok?" asked Penelope.

"Sylveon." she replied.

"Are you sure, we can call off the match if you want."

Sylveon shook her head to tell her trainer that she can still fight.

"I got to say, your Sylveon is very strong to take so many hits!" Ash comented.

"Thanks, you Pikachu is also really strong, and fast too!" replied the pink haired woman.

"Thanks, now see if you can counter this, Electro Ball!" called Ash.

"Counter with Moon Blast." said Penelope.

The two Pokemon formed a ball with Electricity and pink energy for a few seconds, once they were done, the two launched the attacks at each other. The two attacked exploded when they made contact creating more smoke.

Penelope decided that she and Sylveon should us this as a distraction, "Fairy Wind."

Sylveon started to serach for her feelings again, she created wind that blew the attack towards Pikachu, but it also managed to blow the smoke away from the field. Which showed that Pikachu was gone!?

Ash decided to help them so he pointed up. The two looked to where Ash was pointing and saw Pikachu in to air!

"Thunderbolt!" called Ash.

"Swift!" called Penelope.

Pikachu fired a beam of electricity, while Sylveon opened her mouth and fired golden stars. The two attacks in the air collided and caused yet another explosion, but it was high in the sky, so it wouldn't block their view of the rest of the battle.

Pikachu then came back down and landed in his feet, he was ready for more!

"How much longer can they keep going?" Clemont.

"Who cares, this is one exciting battle!" said Bonnie. She was enjoying it a lot.

"Sylveon, use Quick Attack."

"Pikachu, use Quick Attack as well."

The two Pokemon surrounded their bodies in white aura and started to charge at each other, it was unclear which one was faster, but they both were getting closer with every pasting second. When they finally met in the middle, both of their heads crashed into each other, it was painful for both of them, but the final attack caused Sylveon to faint, meaning the winner is Pikachu!

"Alright! Great work, Pikachu. We won our first battle against a fairy type!" cheered Ash.

"Pika pika!" cheered the mouse Pokemon.

"Fen fennekin!" cheered Fennekin. She was happy that her crush won, which made her forget about what happened to him during Attract and Draining Kiss!

Serena was just as happy, cause now Ash weren't have to go with Penelope. Or at least that's what she thought!

"Thank you, Sylveon." said Peneolpe as she feed her an Oran Berry.

"Thanks for the battle, you trained your Sylveon quite well." said Ash with Pikachu back on his shoulder.

"Thank you, but your Pikachu is a completely different story. Well, I lost so I'll be leaving, have a nice day!" said Penelope as she and her Sylveon started to leave.

"Wait!" said Ash. This caught eveyone's attention.

"even though I won, I'm a bit curious about what you were planning if you won. So I'll come with you if it's ok?" he said.

"WHAT?!" said Serena.

"That's great, thank you!" replied the pink haired woman.

"In fact, why don't we all go?" Ash suggested.

"That's even better!" said Penelope.

"It is?" asked Serena. She thought that Penelope only wanted Ash to come with her if she won, but now she's saying it's better if they all go? Serena was very curious to see what will happen.


(Somewhere Nearby)

The sound of laughter came be heard as many children were playing happily outside next to a building. It was like they were having recess!

"I'm back, kids!" said Penelope, as she walked in with the team close behind her.

"Hey, it's Miss Penelope!" cried out a small boy. All the kids ran up to her smiling.

"Wow, look at all those kids!" said Ash, surprised to see so many.

"Looks to me like this is a kindergarten class." guessed Clemont as he adjusted his glasses.

"I'm guessing she's the teacher here." said Ash.

"I am. Did you all behave while I was out?" Penelope asked her students.

"Yes, ma'am! We were all ready good around here!" smiled a small girl.

"Hey look, a Pikachu!" said a young boys as he pointed to Pikachu on Ash's shoulder. As knelled down to help the kids get a closer look at his best friend.

Pikachu turned around to show the kids his tail, which meant that he wanted them to rub it.

"He wants you to rub his tail, he really likes it when people do that." informed Ash.

"Really?" asked a small boy.

Ash nodded his head and allowed the kids to touch his partner's tail. They each took turns one by one touching the mouse Pokemon's tail and received a happy squeak from Pikachu.

"Hey look, a Dedenne!" said a little girl pointing to the smaller mouse Pokemon on Bonnie's head.

Dedenne turned around and started wagging his tail to get a reaction from the kids. What he got was a lot of happy laughter.

"Glad to see your back, Penelope!" said a new voice. Everyone turned to see that the voice belonged to an elder woman walking up to them.

"It seems that you brought both Pokemon and trainers today!" she said.

"Yup, I ran into them after I battled Ash here!" replied Penelope as she looked at the Pallet Town trainer.

"You see, Sylveon and I head out into the fields and forests most of the time to befriend wild Pokemon, and then we bring them back here with us!" Penelope explained.

"We do this, so that the children can meet and learn about Pokemon from up close!" explained the woman.

"That's a smart idea. In fact, let's let all our Pokemon out to play!" said Ash as he looked at his friends.

"I'm in!" cheered Bonnie.

"I think that's a wonderful idea!" smiled Serena.

"I agree." said Clemont.

The trainer threw their Pokeballs into the air to release their teams to show the kids. Ash had only his Kalos team with him, which currently means both Froakie and Fletchling.

Serena had Fennekin, and that was it.

Clemont had both Bunnelby and Chespin.

and Bonnie just had Dedenne.

The children were all surrounding the Pokemon to get a better look at them. Most of the kind were happy that Ash and his friends have one of the Kalos starters, that way they could find out which one they like best for when they become trainers.

"Wow. Flecthling is so cute!" smiled a little girl.

"Thanks, but he's not jus cute, he's pretty fast too." replied Ash.

Flecthling decided to show the children by quickly flying into the air and coming back down in a matter of five seconds.

"Wow. That was so fast that I almost didn't see it!" said a young boy.

"How long have you had Froakie?" asked another boy.

"Not too long, but we've both been training hard to get stronger together and he's gotten really strong in that short amount of time." answered the Pallet Town trainer.

"Froakie!" said the blue frog Pokemon as he showed his arm muscles to the kids.

The children giggled that the Pokemon's actions and started to copy him by doing the same while Ash just smiled.

Meanwhile, Serena was showing her Fennekin to two little girls. Both her fire type and the children seemed to be enjoying themselves.

"Wow. Her fur is so soft." said one of the girls as she slid her hand on Fennekin's back.

"It's a bit warm around her ear." the other girl noticed.

"Heat always comes out her ear, it's like that with all Fennekins." explained the honey blonde trainer.

"Wow, that's really cool!" both of the girls said.

Serena just smiled.

Clemont was showing the kids his Chespin and Bunnelby by the sand box.

"Bunnelby, use Dig." he said.

The long ear rabbit Pokemon was using his ears like a drill to tunnel under the sand and created a hole. After about ten seconds, he poped back out creating another hole from where he came from.

"Wow. That was asweome!" cheered a hand full of kids that were with Clemont.

"I'm glad you liked it, Chespin here knows a thing or two as well." he explained

Chespin used Vine Whip to impress the kids surrounding him. He let two long vines come out of the side if his neck and used them as hands to shake them with the kids. The children all started to shake their hands with Chespin's vines, most of them were coming back for seconds.

Bonie was now feeding her Dedenne with the help of two other girls.

"He really likes it, feed him one at a time." said the younger sister of the Lumiose gym leader.

One of the girls handed a piece of Pokemon food over to Dedenne for him to eat. The tiny mouse Pokemon of Kalos opened his mouth to eat the treat, once the girl placed it in his mouth he closed it and started to chew until he swallowed.

"Aww, he's so cute when he does that!" smiled the girl.

"I know, your turn." said Bonnie as she turned to look at the girl on her other side.

The girl put the treat in Dedenne's mouth and watched as he started to chew on it until he swallowed it again.

"Wow. He really is cute!" she smiled.

All the kids were having a fun, well except one. It was a boy that was hiding behind the door of the school looking at his classmates having fun, but he was scared to join them. Not because of the trainers, but because of the Pokemon. Ash noticed him and decided to investigate.

"Why isn't he joining the rest of us?" he asked Penelope and the elder woman while looking at the boy.

"That's Randall, he's not joining the others because he's scared." replied Penelope.

"What's there to be scared of? We won't hurt him." asked Ash.

"He's not scared of you, he's scared of Pokemon." said the elder woman.

"Scared of Pokemon?" replied a confused Ash.

"It's a long story, but he just doesn't want to go near them." sighed Penelope. She had tried almost everything she could think of to help the young boy get over his fear. Since he lives in a world fulled with Pokemon, he'll be getting scared almost all the time, cause everywhere you turn you'll find a Pokemon. Penelope thought that if she could get Randall to over come his fear while he's still young, then he'll be just fine when he gets older. That proved more challenging than she originally thought.

"I'll try talking to him." said Ash as he put on the ground and told him not to follow him. If this kids had a fear of Pokemon, than having Pikachu near him could cause problems.

Ash slowly started to make his way towards Randall, trying his best to scare him, he knew that he needed to take things slowly in order for this to work.

Young Randall saw one of the trainers that were visiting today coming up to him, he was getting really nervous on what this stranger wanted to do with him. The trainer finally come up next to him and got down on his knees so that he was the same height as Randall.

"Hi there, you look a little nervous." said the trainer.

Randall looked at the trainer and saw a smile on his face, which helped him become less afraid. It also helped that the trainer was on his knees and was able the same size as him. Randall started smile as well at this newcomer, he had a friendly face to show that he was harmless, well to him at least.

"I'm just not use to seeing Pokemon up close like the others." replied Randall.

Ash offered his hand in a fist towards Randall, and waited until the little boy reacted or did something. Randall was confused at what Ash was trying to do. Ash used his other hand to gently grab one of Randall's hands, turn it into a fist, and showed to hit his fist with this own. The young kindergartner bumped his fist into Ash's and did a fist bump. Ash smiled at the young one, which caused his to receive a smile in return.

"Well don't be nervous, cause we won't hurt you. Our Pokemon are quite friendly, and know how to have a good time!" said the raven haired teen.

Randall was a bit nervous about what Ash said when he mentioned the Pokemon. But for strange reason he felt safe around this person, he just felt like Ash was keeping him safe, even if they only known each other for less them a minutes. Randall decided to just trust Ash and grabbed his hand.

This did not go unnoticed by Penelope, the elder woman, or Ash's friends, they were all surprised at how Ash was able to get Randall to trust him so easily. One thing that was definitely on their minds was how Ash was pretty good with kids!

Pikachu slowly approached the two so that the Randall wouldn't be scared so easily. Ash thought that it was best to take things slow so that his new friend could get more comfortable with his Pokemon a little bit at a time.

"Pikachu won't hurt you, I promise you that." said Ash to help Randall feel a little better.

The young boy was still a bit nervous, even though Pikachu was giving him a smile, he still couldn't help but be afraid. He started to back away from the electric type until he was back at the front door of the building. Ash could tell that this was going to be hard.

Randall was super embarrassed at what he just did. Ash was just trying to help him get over his fear of Pokemon, but it was so hard for him. Not he just embarrassed himself in front of his new friend. He just covered his face with his hat like he always does.

All Ash can do is watch as the little hides under his hat in fear. Pikachu looked up at his trainer with a sad expression on his face, and Ash knew what it meant, "Don't feel bad, buddy. It's not your fault, he just needs to get comfortable being near you and the other Pokemon. The question is how to do it?" he asked himself.

Penelope walked up next to him as he was thinking, "We tried everything we could think of. But nothing worked, I'm really worried about him!" she said.

Ash knew that there was a way to get Randall to overcome his fear, but the question was how. If Penelope tried everything she could think of then what else could they do? What could he do?

"You can can go back a play with the others, Pikachu. I'll stay here and see if I can think of something." he told his partner.

Pikachu walked back to where everybody else was playing, while Ash and Penelope sat down on the dirt to think for a bit. How are they going to get Randall to over come his fear of Pokemon? Ash really wanted to help the little guy somehow, but even if his first attempt didn't work then a second one might not be an opinion ether unless he gives it some serious thinking.

Ash then began to think of what Penelope could have tried to he Randall out. Having him get closer to a Pokemon as it stood still, a puppet show about Pokemon, a book that shows how awesome Pokemon are, drawing Pokemon and them showing him the real thing, have him get close to Sylveon, etc.

Ah kept on thing about the simple and hard solutions, there might be some that haven't been tried yet, it was bet it he tries some that he thinks up of himself. But it was going to take a lot of thinking.

"I really don't know what else to do, his fear of Pokemon just makes him feel bad about himself." sighed Penelope.

"Do you know how he got scared of Pokemon in the first place?" asked the Pallet Town trainer.

"He's story goes something like it..." began the pink haired teacher.


(Flashback)

A few years ago, Randall was at his house watching a Hoppip under his porch, but a Beedrill came out of no where and scared him. The Hoppip meant to attack the Beedrill, but accidentally harmed Randall. Randall cried due to the pain ans watched as the Hoppip hoped away and the Beedrill left as well!

(Flashback Ends)


"Wow, poor guy. I guess developing a fear of Pokemon would make sense after an event like that, especially at his age." said Ash.

"I'm feel really bad for him, but I tried everything I could think of!" said the pink haired teacher.

Ash just looked back at the ground he was sitting on. How was he going to help this kid over come his fear?

Both Ash and Penelope have been sitting on the ground for about 15 minutes now. 'Man, my back is starting to hurt a bit now.' thought Ash.

His eyes widen in an idea popped into his head, 'hurt!'.


(10 Minutes Later)

Randall was now with the rest of the kids in the playground, but he was still keeping a distance from the Pokemon that belonged to the trainers. Hewondered if he'll ever overcome his fear. Ash was really trying hard to help him. For some strange reason, Randall felt safe and happy around Ash. He didn't know why, but maybe it was because Ash was so friendly to him and wanted to help him get over his fear of Pokemon. He just wished it wasn't keeping the two of them apart!

Serena looked over to see that Randall was still upset, she walked over and sat down next to him, "Don't be upset, Randall. I'm sure you'll get over your fear of Pokemon soon, Ash will defiantly help you!" she said.

"I guess, but I don't know If I could be brave." repiled Randall with a disappointed sigh.

Serena felt bad and didn't like seeing him like this. She wished she could help in out somehow, but she also wishes that Ash could find a way to hope him as well.

Serena then noticed that Ash wasn't in sight, she wondered which he could be cause it's not like him to just disappear without warning them. She looked some more until she saw Pikachu, but he was laying on the ground on he didn't look very good at all!

"What wrong with Pikachu?" she asked herself as she got up and ran over to him to see what was the matter.

"Pikachu, what's the matter?" asked the honey blonde girl as she got down on her knees to get a closer look at her sweetheart's partner.

"Piiiikaaa." Pikachu moaned in pain.

"What's wrong with Pikachu?" asked Bonnie.

"He didn't look in very good shape at all!" said Clemont as he took a closer look at the electric type.

"He looks ready sick and hurt!" said Bonnie.

"Fen fennekin." said Fenekin as she looked super worried about how Pikachu was feeling.

"I don't see Ash anywhere!" Serena pointed out as she turned her from left to right and back again to find Ash.

"Someone say my name?" asked a voice behind them. They all looked and saw Ash walking up to them calmly.

"Ash! Here's something wrong with Pikachu!" called Serena as she picked up said Pokemon and ran over to Ash.

"What! Pikachu, what's the matter?" asked Ash as he gently grabbed his best friend from Serena's arms.

"Pikaaaaaa." replied Pikachu with a voice that anyone could clearly tell that he was in pain!

"How could he have gotten so hurt?" asked Bonnie.

"That's what I like to know! What happened, Pikachu?" Ash asked his partner.

"Pikaaaaaa." replied the electric type, saying that he was too much in pain to explain.

"He's too hurt to tell us. We need to find something to help him!" suggested Clemont.

"I have a potion in my bag, I'll go get it! Randall, hold Pikachu, I'll be back in minute!" said Ash as he just dropped Pikachu onto Randall's arms.

Randall couldn't believe that he was holding a Pokemon, he was so scared that he wanted to just drop Pikachu and run away. But he couldn't cause the poor little guy was sick and dropping him would not only be rude, but it'll just hurt Pikachu even more. So all he could do was shake in fear as he held the very thing that he feared!

Pikachu was not looking very good right now! In fact, he was starting to get worst as tears started to form in his eyes and began to run down his cheeks. Randall could see the tears and felt sorry for Pikachu, but scared at the same time.

"Aww. Don't cry Pikachu, Ash will be back to help you soon." said Bonnie as she wiped a few tears away.

Fennekin just watched him sadness as her crush suffered in pain. She wondered what could have happened to put him in this state, she just hoped he be alright soon.

Randall couldn't help but feel sorry for Pikachu, the more he watched the Pokemon suffer the more he felt back, he had completely forgotten about his fear of Pokemon just by seeing on so hurt. He started to rock Pikachu back and forth like a baby trying to help him feel better.

"I-It's ok, Pikachu. Ash will make you feel better soon." he said trying to calm down the electric type of Kanto.

The team looked in surprised at how Randall was handling Pikachu, he wasn't acting scared and wasn't freaking out! He was keeping his cool and helping poor Pikachu. They couldn't believe that he doing so well.

'I thought it was going to be a lot harder than that to help him get over his fear of Pokemon!' thought Serena.

Ash came running back to everyone, but didn't have a potion in his hands, "Bad news, I'm all out of potions!" he said.

"Check my bag!" suggested Clemont.

"I'll be right back!" said the trainer from Kanto as he ran over to Clemont's backpack.

Randall continued to rock Pikachu. The good news was that his tears stopped, but he was still moaning in pain, however it wasn't as bad as before, so that was a sign that he was getting better.

"Don't worry, Pikachu. It'll all be better soon." he smiled.

'He's not acting scared anymore!' thought Bonnie as she watched him rock Pikachu some more.

The kids from the playground were watching this as well. They couldn't believe that Randall was actually holding a Pokemon, and he wasn't freaking out! This was the first time they've seen that happen.

"Wow. Randall is holding a Pokemon and isn't scared!"

"He's holding a Pokemon!"

"I thought he would have run away by now!?"

"Randall's holding a Pokemon! For real!"

The students aren't the only ones that were impressed as the two adults were also seeing what was happening.

"Penelope, are you seeing this?" asked the elder woman.

"I'm seeing it, but I can't believe it! Randall's holding a Pokemon and isn't scared!" replied the pink haired teacher with a smile.

Pikachu soon stopped making those painful noises and looked up at Randall with a smile. Randall just smiled back without any sign of fear on his face.

"You did really well, Randall." said Ash as he came back to the group. To everyone's surprise, Ash didn't have a potion in his hands for Pikachu.

"Ash, why don't you have a potion for Pikachu?" asked Bonnie.

"Because he doesn't need it. He looks all better already!" replied Ash as he pointed towards Pikachu in Randall's arms.

Pikachu looked completely fine and had a smile on his face looking at Randall, who also had a smile on his face.

"What a minute!...Did you have Pikachu fake the whole thing?" asked Clemont.

His question got everyone's attention as they turned to look at Ash. He had a smile on his face and just nodded his head, "Yes, I did have him fake it!", he said.

"What!"

"Why would you do that?" asked Serena.

Ash walked to Randall and got down on his knees to match his eye level and asked, "Randall, when that Beedrill scared you when you were a young what did you feel?".

"Well, I felt scared. I also felt like I couldn't help myself because I was hurt and didn't know what to do." he replied.

"Well I guess that proves my idea right!" Ash smiled.

"What idea?" asked Bonnie.

"Randall was scared of Pokemon because he feared that he would be attacked again just like when it happened the first time. So in order for him to over come his fear, he just needed to get closer to a Pokemon that wasn't in his best condition. Therefore, I had Pikachu act like he was hurt and sick so that Randall could get close to him without having to fear getting hurt because if Pikachu was really hurt he be too busy focusing on his own pain and wouldn't be able to hurt anyone." explained Ash.

Everyone was surprised that how ash's plan worked out and took a look at Randall, who still had Pikachu in his arms. It turns out that Ash's plan really did work out. Randall wasn't acting scared anymore.

"I'm really sorry that I had to trick you all like that, but it was the only thing I could think of." Ash apologized

"Don't be sorry, Ash. Your plan worked and Randall looks like he's over his fear now." said Serena.

"She's right, Ash! I'm not scared to hold Pikachu anymore!" replied the young boy.

Pikachu climbed out of Randall's arms and onto his head, he then leaned over so the Randall could look up and see his face upside down with a smile.

"See, your plan worked because you so smart!" smiled Serena as she tapped Ash's nose with one of her fingers. Ash was left with a confused face. Serena then realized what she did and backed away with her as red as a fire type. Meanwhile Bonnie had a big grin on her face.


(5 Minutes Later)

Everyone was having fun playing with a Pokemon again, even Randall taking part in the fun. Ash had used the phone inside the school to call Professor Oak to shend him some of his other Pokemon for the kids to play with.

He now had Buizel, Swellow, and Crawdaunt with him to play with everyone. The children were having the time of their lives as they played with the Pokemon that Ash call from the professor as well at the other Pokemon of his friends.

Randall was just taking it slow with playing with the Pokemon as he was with Ash's Fletchling, since he bird Pokemon was small he wanted to start out slowing and meet bigger Pokemon as time went on.

Ash smiled at Randall as he walked over to him with Pikachu still on his shoulder and sat down next to him.

"I see your wanting to take things slowly, Randall." said Ash.

"Yeah, I want to befriend little Pokemon first before meeting bigger ones." replied the young boy.

"That's smart thinking, a small step can go a long way with enough time. I'm sure you'll befriend lots of Pokemon in the future."

"Thanks, Ash."


(15 Minutes Later)

It was now snack time and the kids were now inside the school getting a bite to eat with the elder woman. Meanwhile Ash, his friends, and Penelope stayed outside wanting to get some more fresh air.

"It sure is nice to relax from a day of training and traveling." said Serena.

"I'm glad you four are all relaxed, I want to thank you all for allowing the kids to see your Pokemon and play with them." smiled Penelope.

"We were happy to help a younger generation learn about Pokemon for their future!" said Clemont.

"It was fun!" said Bonnie.

"We were happy to help!" smiled Serena.

"I'm just happy that I was able to help Randall over come his fear of Pokemon!" replied Ash.

The pink haired woman smiled, but she then turned to Ash and smiled again, "I want to personally thank you, Ash. Even through you beat me in our battle this morning you still came with me here, and if you didn't then Randall would still be scared of Pokemon. Thank you!" she said.

"I was glad I could help." replied the Pallet town trainer.

"Then here's a little reward for all your kindness.", She leaned in closer and kissed Ash on the cheek to show her appreciation for all that he's done for her and her class today.

Sylveon copied her trainer's actions and kissed Pikachu on the cheek as well. This caught the electric type by surprise. Truth be told, everyone was surprised by Penelope and Sylveon's action.

Clemont was blushing madly with a confused face.

Bonnie started to realize that the temperature was starting to rise and she started sweatig a bit.

'Why is it getting so hot?' she thought.

She looked over to her right side and found the answer. Serena and Fennekin had very angry faces on and their bobies were surounded by flames of anger. Both of them looked like they were using Flare Blitz.

Bonnie slowly stepped away until she spotted a stick on the ground. She picked it up, took out a marsmellow from...somewhere?, and start roasting it with Serena and fennekin's flames of anger.

"What are you doing to Ash!" yelled Serena.

"Fennekin!" shouted the fire tpye at the fairy type.

"I'm just showing my appreciation for helping Randall." replied Penelope.

"Syl, sylveon." said the fairy type. She explained that her kiss was a reward for how well Pikachu beated her during their battle earlier.

"You know Serena, if you want Ash for yourself your going to have to make the first move on him when you still have the chance." adviced the pink haired woman.


(Ash's House)

Delia was laughing at Serena's reaction with tears running down her eyes. Oh, how the young hoeny blonde girl struggles with the love for Ash.

She calmed down and see that Ash had a confused face on him over the phone screen.

"That's my Ash, a lady killer and dosen't even know it!" she smiled.


(Serena's House)

All of the young teenage girl's family memders were laughed at Serena's reaction.

"Haha, that Penelope does have a point though. Serena should act fast if she wished to let him know how she feels." said Jane.

"We'll worry about that later, her reactions are just too funny. I just hope she doesn't find out that we've been spying on her through TV or else that will ruin all the fun." replied Grace.


(3 Hours Later)

After hours of playing the sun was starting to set and the team was about to leave to find a Pokemon center to staying in. Everyone was outside to see the trainers off, plus the parents of all the kids will be here soon.

"Thank you so much for comig by. You're wlecome here anytime!" said the elder woman.

"We were happy to be here." said Ash.

"It was fun!" smiled Bonnie.

Randall walked up to Ash with a sad face, "Do you really have to go?" he asked.

"I'm afraid so, there's still a lot more adventures out here waiting for me and the others." said Ash.

Randall's face grew even more disappointed, but Ash got down and gave him a hug to help cheer him up. Randall hugged back in an instant and buired his face into Ash's chest. Ash could see that Randall had bonded to him very quickly in just one day. He too feels the same and wants to be sent off with a smile!

"Randall, promise me something." said Ash.

He not only got Randall's attention, but the attention of everyone the surounded them.

"What is it?"

"If your not scared of Pokemon anymore, right?"

"Yeah."

"Are you going to become a trainer when your older?"

"You bet!"

"Then promise me, when you become a trainer, that you and I have a battle to see how strong you are when we meet up in the future. Okay?"

Randall now had a smile on his face and hugged Ash again, "I promise!' he replied.

Everyone was touched by how sweet the two boys looked together, they looked like brothers.

The two then released each other and exchanged a high five.

Ash and his friends then started to walk down the path to continue their journey through the Kalos region.

"Goodbye everyone!" called Serena.

"Let's see each other again some day!" called out Bonnie.

"We'll see you all some time in the future." called Clemont.

"Goodbye everyone. And Randall, get stronger and make friends with all sorts of Pokemon!" called out Ash.

"I will! Goodbye Ash. Goodbye everyone." Randall called out one last time.

And so Ash and his friends have had another adventure and have helped children prepared for the fututre as Pokemon trainers. But new adventure await Ash, Pikachu, and all their Kalos friends as they keep on moving forward as the journey towards the Kalos league continues!


And Done!

Hey there everyone, I'm sorry for the wait. My parents have been trying to get me to do more active stuff than writing my stories.

But I'm finished with this chapter!

The Pokemon XY and XYZ anime is now officially over! Both in Sub and Dub, and I got to say that it's been the most fun watching it for the past three years. I'm really going to miss it, but life moves on!

It will take a while for the next chapter to come out, cause I'll be working on my other two stories. But I'll try to finish as soon as I can to get back to this one for you fans.

Did you like Pikachu's battle against Sylveon?

Let me know what I can do to improve for future battle, and I'll be seeing you soon!
