Disclaimer:I don't own Pokemon.
Ash and Brendan had scurried towards Mauville and made they're way into the Pokemon Center where Ash had his Pokemon healed up by Nurse Joy. Afterwards he showed her Pikachu's Pokeball and explained the situation to her, but she could nothing about it. Distraught, he went to the one man he knew who could help him.
"Hmm, this is quite a problem Ash," said Prof Oak over the video screen.
"Please Professor, is there anything you can do to get Pikachu out of there?" begged Ash.
"Well, if you send him over here, I'll do what I can to get him out of there," said Oak.
"Okay then, and by the way, could you send over my new Jigglypuff? I think she might cause mayhem over there if she stays right now."
Ash made the exchange and walked outside of the Pokemon Center to go the Mauville Gym.
"Hey Ash, I got some advice for you," said Brendan. The Gym leader here uses Electric Pokemon, but two of his are part Steel type, Magnemite and Magneton. Your Charizard should probably be strong enough to take on all them without much problem. Oi, are you listening?" he added when he noticed Ash wasn't paying attention.
"Huh, oh sorry," he mumbled Ash.
"You still down about your Pikachu?"
"It goes a lot deeper than that Brendan," said Ash seriously. "Pikachu's been with me since the start ever since I started my journey 3 years ago. I've caught other Pokemon who I eventually I had to let go though they all came, but Pikachu was always there. I even tried to release him once into a group of Pikachu thinking he would be happier there, but he came back to me without a thought! It's just...hard knowing that he's not here now."
"I get what you mean, Ash. Swampert and I pretty close," said Brendan softly taking out his Swampert's Pokeball and staring at it.
Scene Break...
"Yay, we finally made it!' cheered Yuri. After an hour of walking they made it to a Pokemon center.
"Hehehe, time for a check up from the nurse," smirked Kairi.
Chuka Thunderpunched him on the head and growled,"Fool. Anyways, if you need me, I'll be over by the computer checking my Facebook account."
Kairi irked an eyebrow and said,"You have a facebook account?"
"Who says I can't?" shot back Chuka.
She went onto a nearby pc and went onto the said site only to find no sign of her profile.
"Dammit, something's wrong here...if my account was deleted I would have been told," she frowned as her eyes slowly turned towards the date which then caught her attention.
"Oh crap."
"Hey, Chuka, we're back!" said Yuri cheerfully. "Hmm, is something wrong?"
"Guys...I think we're in the past," said Chuka slowly.
"Oh come on, Chuka, that's just a load of baloney-HOLY SHIT! We're back one year!" yelled Kairi.
"Wow, your right!" said Yuri checking the date.
"Alright, this is a great opportunity for us," smirked Kairi.
"How?" asked Yuri.
"We can play the stock market with out knowledge from the future! We could make millions!"
"Why make millions when we could make...billions?" said Yuri doing the Dr Evil pinky thing.
"We wouldn't make anything," said Chuka rolling her eyes. "The economy is bad, remember?"
"Oh right," said Kairi sadly.
"That's nice and all, but how are we going to get back to our time," wondered Yuri.
Scene Break
"Alright, not bad Ash," said Brendan. "Your already halfway done with your badges!"
"Yeah," said Ash smiling slightly.
"Don't worry Ash," said Mewtwo. "I'm sure that Prof Oak has found a way to release your Pikachu."
"I can't get it opened," was what the esteemed Professor said when Ash called him again.
"You can't?" said Ash in horrible dismay.
"I'm sorry Ash, but I've never seen a Pokeball wired shut like this before. Except for maybe the GS ball," said the Proffesor.
"The GS ball? Hey wait a minute... didn't I bring that over to Kurt so he can open it?" asked Ash.
"Yes," said the Professor suddenly looking embarrassed. "I actually forgot to check up on him a while ago," he chuckled nervously.
"Hmm, maybe I should take Pikachu's Pokeball over to him in Johto!" said Ash with realization. This prompted a look from Brendan who said,"Uh, Ash? Johto's a long way from here, and if we go all the way there now, we'll both miss the Hoenn League."
"Don't worry about that, Mewtwo can teleport us to Johto in a instant!" said Ash.
"That's right," confirmed Mewtwo. "I can remember the location of it in Mount Quena, so I can teleport you all to it whenever your ready."
"All right!" cheered Ash. "Professor I'll send you over my Sceptile for Pikachu then."
"Very well Ash, good luck and oh! Ask Kurt if he's opened the GS ball yet," asked the Professor.
They made the exchange and Ash turned over to his Psychic Legendary and asked,"Okay, Mewtwo, do your-GAH!"
Ash was suddenly tackled from behind by Yuri who was yelling,"Ohmygodohmygodohmygod!"
"What on earth!" yelled Brendan.
'Release my friend," said Mewtwo using Confusion to pull Yuri of Ash.
Chuka went up to Mewtwo and said,"I apologize for my trainer's behavior. She's somewhat insane."
"Look who's talking," snickered Kairi who then Thunderbolted.
"Why'd you tackle me for?" demanded Ash angrily.
"Oh I'm sorry, it's just that your Ash Ketchum!" explained Yuri.
"That's the reason why?" asked Ash looking confused.
"Yeah, your the winner of last year's Hoenn League competition, you even beat the Elite 4 there!" said Yuri cheerfully.
"I did?" said Ash now looking very confused.
"Hey wait a minute, you don't even have all 8 Hoenn badges yet, how could you have competed last year!" exclaimed Brendan looking puzzled.
"Oh you probably haven't done it yet, you see, Chuka, Kairi, and I are from the future!" said Yuri.
"Your what?" yelled Ash.
"You idiot, your not supposed to tell anyone your from the future!" growled Chuka.
"The future? Are you sure your not on drugs?" asked Brendan.
"She tells the truth," said Mewtwo using telepathy to read her mind.
"Really? All right, I become the champion and beat the Elite 4!" cheered Ash.
"Ah man, and I wanted to be a champion!" grumbled Brendan.
"Hehehe," chuckled Ash. "Better luck next time!"
"That's nice and all, but it doesn't change the fact that we're stranded in this time," said Chuka.
"Yeah, I'm not really looking forward to all that deja vu," said Kairi rubbing his head.
"I know a Pokemon that could help you, but first we need to help Ash here get his Pikachu out of his Pokeball, he's stuck in there, you see," said Mewtwo.
"Okay, I'll join you guys for a while, and by the way, my name is Yuri!" she said.
Brendan blushed red suddenly from the connotations that came to his mind from that name. 'Oi, calm yourself Brendan, your not a Jiraiya or Master Roshi!' he said to himself.
"And my name's Brendan-aaahh!" said the man before he tripped on his own feet and landed his head in Yuri's chest.
"...Aiiiiii! Pervert!" screamed Yuri, punching him in the stratosphere.
"I'M SOOOORRRRYYYY!" screamed Brendan as he crash landed onto the ground.
"Ouch," he groaned.
"Er, Mewtwo can you teleport us now, please?" asked Ash.
"Very well, we're off to Mt. Quena!" said the psychic Pokemon as he and the group glowed brightly for a moment and teleported away.
"Wow! So this is Mt. Quena!" said Yuri looking in awe at the mountain.
"Yes, it does look beautiful, doesn't it?" said Mewtwo looking at the mountain fondly. Turning to his trainer he asked,"So where is Kurt in Johto?"
"He's in Azalea Town," said Ash.
"Why didn't you say that to begin to begin with? I know the location of that as well," said Mewtwo who then teleported them outside of the Pokemon Center in Azalea Town.
"Gack, I think I'm getting dizzy from these teleports," gagged Chuka.
"C'mon, let's go find Kurt!" said Ash running ahead.
It took them all less than 10 minutes to find Kurt and after introductions were made, Ash asked the question that he came all this way to ask.
"Do you think you can get my Pikachu's Pokeball to open?" pleaded Ash feeling at the end of his rope.
"Hmm, I'll see what I can do," said Kurt. "But when did this happen?"
"Well, you see... Pikachu was almost neutered by my Jigglypuff so I had to return him to his Pokeball to save him in time," said Ash rubbing his head.
"I see...and I'm assuming you never returned your Pikachu to it's Pokeball before, am I right?"
"Yes, after I first got him from Prof Oak, he was never placed in his Pokeball ever again until today," confirmed Ash. "I think he has claustrophobia."
"Ah, in that case I think I know that the problem is," said Kurt. "The combined terror of losing his manhood along with going to the place he fears the most to escape the situation has caused his mind to shut, which is why he refuses to let himself out. To put it simply, your Pikachu's fear of enclosed spaces has grown so bad it believes it IS a Pokeball to escape his fear."
"Oh, so how do I get him out?" asked Ash.
"Well, I have two suggestions, break the Pokeball, or have a Psychic Pokemon telepathically talk to him to awaken him."
"I should have done this to begin with," muttered Mewtwo who took the Pokeball and spoke to it with his mind. 'Pikachu, listen to me, there's no more danger here anymore. Jigglypuff is safely contained in a Pokeball. You can come out now.'
There was silence and Mewtwo heard the yellow mouse say,'Mewtwo?'
The ball opened and released Pikachu who shook himself erratically as if his fur just got wet.
"Pikachu!" Ash exclaimed and gave his eternal companion a great hug which was swiftly returned. "I'm so glad your back!" "Me too, it's so cramped and boring in there," said Pikachu.
Yuri grinned at the heartwarming scene as did Chuka slightly which then turned into a scowl as Kairi said,"You know it's time like these make me glad that I'm with a hot woman like you, Chuka."
Chuka promptly Thunderpunched him in the face and growled,"Do you have to spoil the moment?"
Once they settled down, Ash asked Kurt another question. "By the way, did you ever manage to open the GS Ball?"
Kurt sighed and said,"Unfortunately no. I've tried everything to get it to open, but nothing has worked.
I haven't been able to find out what the GS stands for."
"I think it stands for gold and silver," said Yuri.
Kurt gasped and said,"YES! Of course, it's so simple! Why didn't I realize it sooner!
"What?" asked Brendan.
"It confirms my suspicions, Ho-oh and Lugia are somehow connected to the ball!" said Kurt.
Suddenly his granddaughter came running in and said,"Grandpa! Something's going on with the Ilex Forest!"
Everyone went outside and saw the tree's in the forest were shaking with rough winds coming through them. Ash grimaced and said,"We better go check it out. Mewtwo, can you use Confusion to fly us there?"
"Easily," said Mewtwo lifting them all up with Confusion and took of towards the forest.
"Whoa, is this how being a bird feels like!" asked Chuka.
He took them to the shrine where he felt most of the disturbance was coming from. "Hey, it looks like the GS Ball could fit in that hole," said Ash pointing a hole in the shrine.
"Maybe it'll open the GS Ball and we can finally found out what's inside it," said Pikachu.
"Alright, time to solve the mystery," said Ash who placed the GS Ball on the spot in the hole. At first nothing happened, then the ball started shaking...and glowing greenish pink.
The GS Ball then opened to release a Pokemon Ash had seen twice before but in a different color. It looked like a pixie and had a pink coloring with green antenna's.
It had it's eyes closed and slowly fell down which prompted Ash to grab on to it in his arms.
"Wow, so all this time it was a shiny Celebi in the GS Ball all along," said Ash.
"And to think," chuckled Kurt. "The secret to opening it was right here in the Ilex Forest."
The Celebi opened it's eyes and looked at Ash and said in a female telepathic voice,"Are you...are you the one who released me?"
"Yeah, I was the one released you, my name is Ash.," said Ash smiling.
"If that is the case, you are now my trainer, Ash," said Celebi.
Omake 1:Reactions to the new movie.
"Do you guys see the news?" screamed Pikachu.
"What news?" asked Ash.
"They're actually going through with making an actual honest to Arceus live action Pokemon movie!" Pikachu yelled.
"Yes!" cheered Charizard. "About time too! I can finally show myself on the big screen again!"
"You idiot, don't you understand?" snarled Pikachu looking somewhat crazed. "This will ruin us, and we'll lose all our money!"
"How?" asked Mewtwo. "Besides, Pokemon still has Black and White versions to fall on if the movie bombs for some reason, along with the anime, several manga's animated movies, trading cards, miscellaneous merchandise, and future games as well."
Pikachu took out a laptop and brought a video of the movie. "See?"
"I look a lot older," frowned Ash who then thought for a moment and said,"But maybe that's a good thing. I mean, I've gone through 4, well six regions if you count the Orange Islands and now Isshu and for some reason I'm still ten! Maybe they could use that as a running gag. Everyone could treat this older Ash like a kid even though he's supposed to be an adult! Ha! I made something good for it already!"
"Am I...on Giovanni's side?" yelled Charizard in horror. "NO! The movie stinks! I'm supposed to be on Ash's side and be his secret weapon against tough trainers and legendaries!"
"It could easily be another Charizard, and besides you could still be on Ash's side there fight against Giovanni's Charizard," said Mewtwo. "And apparently I'm in the movie as well. By the look of it, a villanious role."
"I think I'm in one the scenes and get caught by Ash. Yes! I get a canon traveling role!" cheered Haunter.
"I make an appearance too!" danced Jigglypuff.
"Yeah, doing what you do best," teased Haunter. "Putting people to sleep. GAHHH! Tha-that was a compliment!"
"It better be," growled Jigglypuff.
"Hello?" yelled Pikachu. "Remember Dragonball Evolution and the Last Airbender? Or even worse... the Super Mario Brothers movie?"
Everyone suddenly glared at Pikachu and Ash said,"Pikachu, no matter how you feel, there's no way in any sense that our movie could be as...well you know like that...movie."
"And besides, our fans have been debating about the pros and cons of a live action Pokemon movie for years," said Mewtwo. "If it's terrible, it's terrible. But it won't stop fans from watching the anime, playing the games, or losing the spirit of Pokemon.
Pikachu calmed and he started to smile. "Yeah, I guess your right. Maybe it could still be alright and do good at the box office, and maybe even a ton of money! Let's just do the movie and get it over with! Good or bad, bring on the Live Action Pokemon movie!"
Somewhere else...
"YEAH! I'M CREEPY BADASS AWESOME!"
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I EVOLVED!"
(Note I wrote this before the second trailer came out, check out next time for they're next reactions)
Omake 2:Ash beats Takuto

Ash sends out Charizard who fires a Blaze fueled plus Sunny Day Blast Burn against Deoxys Psycho Boost. Charizard is defeated but Deoxys takes some damage. Ash sends out Mewtwo and after a amazing battle manages to win.
This is all speculation and Ash may or may note use different Pokemon when I get to this part in Sinnoh. But after the awards ceremony...
"Hey Takuto, before you leave, can I ask you something?" asked Ash.
"Yes, what is it?" said Takuto.
"If you don't mind me asking, how did you get your legendary Pokemon?"
Takuto pulled something out of his cloak and said,"With this, an Action Replayer! Though if I remembered to put in the 1 hit ko code before I entered, I would have won otherwise. Oh well!"
"An Action Replay? Isn't that like a GameShark?" asked Ash pulling out his own.
Takuto sneered at him and said,"Poor boy, still stuck in the world of Game Boy Color."
And before we leave, I think I must address one last question that's on your minds. Where and why did Chuka have senzu beans? She got them from a salesman who was was selling items from different anime worlds and wanted to buy a Death Note to kill Kairi. They were out of it, so she bought Senzu beans so she could beat Kairi to an inch of his life if he ever really pissed her off and heal him so Yuri wouldn't notice.
