"So Flora won't listen to a word you say, Damon?" Ash asked as they were walking down the streets of Cerulean City.
"No, she won't. I can't get her to listen to anything I say." Damon replied.
"Well, I might be able to figure out why that is." Ash commented.
"Really?" Damon asked hopefully.
"Yep, I'll help you." Ash nodded. Suddenly, Ash's aura flared as he sensed someone approaching. Ash recognized the aura as Team Rocket.
"Cool, you like totally just won a trip for seven on the S.S. Anne." James, dressed up as a girl, shouted in what he thought was a girl voice. (A/n: yes I know this happened in Vermilion but I'm doing it out of order, so sue me)
"Radical!" Jesse cheered, wearing a cheerleader's outfit.
'I don't even know what to say to that.' Blade said, face-palming as the 'cheerleaders' skipped away.
-My eyes!- Volt screeched through the aura bond -Oh the pain, that was a horrendous sight!-
'Daddy, I'm scared.' Spike said, clinging onto Ash's leg in fear.
-I hope to never relive that experience again.- Sky stated.
-Agreed.- Everyone else said.
"We better go on the S.S. Anne to make sure Team Rocket's plan doesn't work." Ash stated.
"That was Team Rocket? Was one of them James?" Brock asked, hoping it wasn't.
"Yes, and he scared Spike" Ash said, rocking the little larvitar.
Damon shivered. "It would scare me too." Mark just nodded dumbly, his mind unable to comprehend that James did that.
"Well let's go. The S.S. Anne is an international cruise ship, so we might as well enjoy the ride on board while we can." N commented as they all nodded. They then boarded the ship.
"Guy,s let's meet back here at 6:30 p.m. so we can split up and explore." Ash stated and they nodded. Ash started exploring till he heard an all too familiar voice.
"You're worthless, both of you! You know what, I'm done with you." Paul stated to an absol and a raichu, releasing them from their Poké Balls.
"Hey! You can't do that, that's just cruel!" Ash growled to Paul, but he just ignored Ash and left.
"Hey you two, if you want, you can join my team. I still have my fifteen pokemon limit and I think you are great Pokémon. I can also understand Pokémon, if that helps" Ash stated.
'Very well, we will join you. I am Akili and the Raichu beside me is Spark.' The disaster pokemon stated.
"Nice to meet you both, and welcome to the team" Ash told them with a smile as he caught them in Poké Balls and then let them out and formed an aura bond with them. The only reason Ash was no longer afraid of pikachu or its evolution was because of what Blade did in mount moon, besides he doubted that Spark would betray him like Ubel did.
~with N~
N looked around, Clarice and Kek out with him. They stopped at a breeder station where they were raising eggs and selling them.
"I wonder if they have any psychic or dark type Pokémon eggs." N pondered aloud.
"I have a chatot and vulpix that just hatched if you want them. I know they're not psychic or dark types, but its all we got." the breeder at the stand said.
"Okay, how much for them?" N asked.
"For trainers, it's no charge, didn't you see the sign? Trainers get three pokemon eggs or hatchlings free" the breeder said, handing N the Poké Balls.
"In that case, can I have that buizel there? He looks like a fighter and my little brother would love him." N asked.
"I don't know, that's for Buizel to decide. You see, he was abandoned by his last trainer like his buddy Poochyena there. They just came to my stall out of sheer luck." the breeder replied.
"Wel,l my brother wants to catch only abandoned Pokémon, none wild, and I could just tell they were abandoned. Besides my little brother can understand Pokémon so you'll be taken really good care of, so what do you say? Wanna come with me to become Pokémon to my brother?" N asked the two Pokémon.
'I want to go, Hurricane. He seems nice.' Poochyena stated to the buizel and he nodded.
'Okay, let's go' Hurricane told his friend and they walked towards Ash. N explained the situation to Ash and he readily agreed to take in Hurricane and the little poochyena who was named Isa. Ash formed aura bonds with them both and caught them. N also decided to name the chatot Danny and the vulpix Flare.
"Now we wait for the others." Ash commented.
N nodded. "Yep."
~with Misty~
Misty walked with Clara out because Yuudal might hurt someone by accident with those stingers of his. That's when she saw a guy selling a Magikarp. Most people wouldn't give the thing a second glance.
"Poor Magikarp. I know, I'll get him." Misty murmured to herself as she paid for the magikarp.
"I give no refunds!" the salesman shouted as he ran away.
"Hey there little guy. I'll find out your name from my friend, Ash. He can understand Pokémon." Misty said as the red fish floated around her happily. Misty walked and found Ash.
"Hey Ash, what's this little guy's name?" Misty asked, noting that N was there too.
"What is it?" Ash asked the magikarp.
'It's Blaz,' the magikarp said in strong male voice.
"He says his name is Blaz." Ash said to Misty.
Misty smiled. "Unwavering protection, that's a wonderful name!"
Blaz blushed. 'Thank you.'
~with Damon~
"This place sure is big, huh Hypnotic?" Damon asked his drowzee.
Hypnotic nodded. 'Definitely.'
"Please kid! You have to take this stupid psyduck off my hands!" a man begged Damon.
'I'm not stupid! Besides, I don't like you either! And the name's Duncan!' the psyduck said, spraying the man in the butt with a condensed jet of water out of his mouth known only as Water Gun.
'So your name's Duncan. Well, a friend of my trainer can understand Pokémon and he will be able to tell Damon your real name.' Hypnotic said. The only reason he wasn't wary of Ash was because he could understand him. he was a little wary of Ash's friends, except for N who could also understand them. Though he wasn't wary of other Pokémon, because they were just that, Pokémon.
"Sure I'll take the Psyduck." Damon said with a smile. "I bet you have a name, and I have a friend who can tell me it."
'I like him. I choose to go with him.' Duncan said as he grabbed his Poké Ball and handed it to Damon. They eventually found Ash, who in turn told him the psyduck's name.
~with Mark~
"There sure is a lot of people here." Mark whispered nervously to Archer.
'Yeah there sure is! Let's explore!' Archer cheered as he flew off. Mark had to chase after him. They soon came to a storage room, where they found a jolteon and eevee huddling together in fear.
'Back off me and Pixel!' The jolteon demanded.
'Easy there, my trainer can't hurt a fly.' Archer stated.
"Are you two okay?" Mark asked the two other Pokémon.
'I think I like this guy, Bolting. He smells nice.' Pixel, the eevee, said after licking Mark's face after he petted her.
"Okay girl, I think I'll get you and the jolteon's name from my friend, Ash. He can understand Pokémon." Mark said. "That is if you want to come with me." he added quickly.
'Please, brother?' Pixel pleaded.
'Fine. As long as he is a good trainer, we'll go with him but the moment he's not, we leave.' Bolting sighed.
'Yay!' Pixel cheered jumping into Mark's arms as Bolting touched a Poké Ball and was caught along with his sister. Soon enough, Mark let them back out to ask Ash their names. Ash told him, and the group waited for Brock and Iris.
~with Iris~
Iris somehow wandered to a Unova eggs breeder station.
"You're from the Village of Dragons in Unova, aren't you?" a breeder asked.
"Yeah, but how did you know?" Iris questioned.
"Your clothes are the same as those from there. Anyway, here, it's a Dragon type egg. I won't say which, but take it. I can't take care of the dragon type. You can take better care of it than I could, so please take it." the breeder said handing her a half black and half blue egg with red triangles around the black half in in one line around it near the bottom.
"Thank you." Iris mumbled, holding her new egg protectively as she left the stand and met with Ash.
"Hey Iris. Looks like you'll be a Poké parent soon." Ash commented.
Iris smiled. "Yep, I can't wait."
~with Brock~
"Now, what to do?" Brock asked himself as he found a doctor/breeder station that sold that kinds of stuff.
'I like you, mister!' A small pink being with a rock in a pouch on the front of it said. This was a happiny.
"Hello there, aren't you the cute one?" Brock said, picking up the happiny and tickling it.
"I think Angel likes you, you can take her if you want. I'm getting too old and she just hatched as I gave her the name Angel. So, will you please take her?" a breeder said.
"I'd love to, but I already have six pokemon with me so I can't catch her right away." Brock explained.
"Well if you're a doctor or one in training or a certified breeder, you can carry up to eleven pokemon, plus I have Angel's Poké Ball right here and she hates it in there" the breeder explained, handing Brock her Poké Ball.
"Well I guess I can take Angel with me then." Brock said with a smile as he carried Angel with him back to Ash and the others.
"Hey Brock, I see you got a new pokemon. Well, good for you, but how did you get her? She's over your six Pokémon limit." Ash asked.
"Apparently registered breeders, doctors, and doctors in training have an eleven Pokémon limit." Brock answered.
Ash smiled. "That's great. That means N has an eleven Pokémon limit too"
N nodded. "Looks like it does." Suddenly the doors slammed shut and the employees revealed themselves to be Team Rocket members.
"Prepare for trouble!" Jessie said.
"Make it double!" James added.
"To protect the world from devastation."
"To unite all people within our nation."
"To denounce the evils of truth and love."
"To extend our reach to the stars above."
"Jessie."
"James."
"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight!"
"Meowth, that's right." Jason stated.
'Yeah that's right.' Ubel said with a smirk, though all anyone else heard was "Pi, Pikachu."
"We're here to take all your Pokémon." Jesse announced as she began, with the rest of the Rockets, to take everyone's Poké Balls.
"Hey, are we just gonna let them take our Pokémon?!" Ash shouted.
"No!" all the trainers responded, sending out their Pokémon.
"Alright Blade, you get the Pokémon on the backs of the Rockets." Ash stated as Blade nodded, running in and smashing each Rocket's glass container containing the Pokémon. The psychic types then levitated the Pokémon to their appropriate trainers. Then each type gained up together on Team Rocket, sending them blasting away.
"This is your captain speaking! We're taking on water, I repeat we're taking on water, so go to the lifeboats in a calm and orderly fashion." the captain ordered and the large crowd panicked and this lead to our heroes bumping their heads on the wall and getting knocked out. Team rocket ended up chasing James run away Poké Ball with the Magikarp he was tricked into buying and getting knocked out too when James clipped it on his belt.
~linebreak~
"Ow, anyone get the number of that bus that hit me?" Damon joked.
"No, but I think we're still on the ship and it's underwater." Ash commented.
"Wait, what?!" Damon shouted.
"You heard me, we're underwater. We have to find a way to get out." Ash stated.
"Go Neptune!" Misty shouted, letting her squirtle out in the water beside them.
'What's up, Mist?' Neptune asked.
"Neptune, we're stuck on a ship and it's underwater. We need you to find a way out for us." Misty told him.
'Right away, Mist. I don't want my trainer dying on me.' Neptune said, diving down into the water. Neptune looked around and all he found for his troubles was a drowning Team Rocket quartet.
'Man, now I have to help these bozos.' Neptune sighed as he pulled them up to the surface.
'I thought I was gonna die.' Ubel panted.
'You better not harm Ash again, you rat!' Blade growled and the new Pokémon looked at Blade strangely.
'What happened before?' Spark asked.
'This rat was Ash's starter before it betrayed Ash, nearly killing him.' Blade explained.
'Let me at that rat! I'll kill it for hurting my trainer!' Hurricane shouted, being held back by Blade.
'I'm right here, you know!' Ubel growled.
"Calm down guys! Team Rocket, I say we form a temporary truce till we get out of here." Ash announced.
"Alright, deal, but only till we get out." Jessie agreed.
"This means you can't shock them, Ubel." Jason, the meowth, said.
'Fine, but once we're out of here I get to.' Ubel agreed.
"Follow me. I built a model of the S.S. Anne so know this boat and we need to get to the top to get out." Misty said. Soon, she led them past all the obstacles and they made it to the top.
"I'm going to have to return all of you except Shift and Hurricane, okay?" Ash asked and they nodded.
"Meowth, you ride Hurricane to the top. I'll ride Shift, so transform into vaporeon form, Shift." Ash said and Shift did so.
"Jessie, you can ride Unnr, Pikachu, go with Neptune, Mark you'll ride your psyduck, I'll ride Myuna, James, take out your Magikarp." Misty ordered, everyone grabbing onto a water type as Duncan the psyduck used water gun to cut the metal. Soon the water followed in and everyone made it to the surface and onto a raft. Ash let out Blade on the raft, but not Fang since he hated water. Ubel shocked the end of the raft Ash was on and Ash fell off.
'Ash!' Blade shouted as he jumped in after him, barely keeping Ash's head above water as a storm started because James had insulted his magikarp and smashed its Poké Ball, making it sad and angry enough to evolve.
'Please Gyarados, please stop! My trainer's in the water, please, I'm begging you! I can't lose my trainer! He's all of our everything! He might die if you keep this up! Please I'm begging you, he saved all of us when we were abandoned! Please Gyarados, please!' Shift pleaded, tears flowing from his eyes as he saw Blade struggling for Ash.
'Please, Gyarados, please! I know I just met Ash, but I already care so much about him! Please spare him!' Hurricane begged, on his knees crying.
'You Pokémon care so much about him. I just wanted a human to care about me, that's all I wanted!' Gyarados cried, stopping the storm long enough for Blade to pull Ash on the raft who, in turn, coughed up water.
'Well then, join Ash. He's a kind, caring trainer. He will always care about you, especially if you're his Pokémon.' Shift said, and that's when Gyarados decided then and there he'd join Ash.
'My name is Zareh.' the gyarados said, nuzzling Ash as he had already sent Team Rocket flying.
"I like you too, Zareh, so you wanna come with me, right?" Ash asked and Zareh roared in approval.
'Ash can also understand us so he's the ideal trainer.' Shift smiled, back in his eevee form.
'Indeed he is.' Zareh nodded as he tapped the Poké Ball in Ash's hand. Ash let him back out and aura bonded with him.
"Ash Ketchum, you had me so worried!" Iris cried, tears in her eyes as she dove into his arms letting loose her tears.
"Ash, you had me worried too; never do that again!" N ordered in a choked voice. He was so worried about his little brother, it was almost unbearable.
"We were all worried about you, Ash." Mark told him.
"I didn't do anything guys. Ubel made me trip into the water and Blade dove after me. I am sorry for worrying you though." Ash stated as Iris let go.
Iris blushed. "I'm sorry about that."
"If I ever see that pikachu again, he's going to get it." Damon growled.
"I don't get what's that thing's problem with Ash." Misty grumbled.
"Neither do I, Mist." Brock said, nicknaming Misty.
Misty smiled. "Mist, I like the nickname." Soon enough the group made it to Porta Vista, the same port the other trainers made it to. The very next day Ash declared it a vacation day.
"Come on out, everybody" Ash said letting out all his pokemon. He had gotten permission from professor Oak to have all his Pokémon with him for just today. The water pokemon went to play in the water and everybody was frightened of the gyarados until they saw it nuzzling Ash. They relaxed at that point. Ash pulled out his Pokédex to scan his new Pokémon.

'Hey, so you must be the new guys.' Waterfall stated.
'Yep, I'm Princess.' the milotic told him.
'I am Akili.' the absol stated.
'I'm Isa.' Poochyena stated.
Buizel smirked. 'Name's Hurricane.'
'I'm Zareh.' the gyarados told them.
'My name is Spark.' the raichu said with a smile.
'Name's Waterfall.' the shiny prinplup announced.
'I'm the courageous knight, Torch.' the brave cyndaquil stated.
'No you're the jump head first into things Torch. Anyway, I'm Sky.' the staravia said with a smile.
'The name's Flame.' the charizard stated, not giving Torch any time to respond to that.
'I'm Blaze.' the shiny charmeleon stated.
'It's Volt, the amazing prankster.' the luxio said.
'Shift.' the eevee introduced.
The gible smiled. 'Fang.'
'I'm Psyblade.' the espurr said.
'I is Spike.' the baby larvitar cooed with a smile.
'I'm Ravyn.' the tricky fox Pokémon, a shiny Zorua, stated.
'Well, now that we're all introduced, let's have some fun on this vacation!' Torch cheered and they all cheered with him, every Pokémon having his or her own kind of fun. They were either building sand castles, playing in the water, or sunbathing. Ash was currently playing in the water with the Pokémon when his mother walked up. During this Fang discovered he had no need to be afraid of water because his dragon typing canceled out his weakness, he quickly joined the others after that.
"Ash honey, is that you?" Delia Ketchum asked.
"Mom, what are you doing here?" Ash asked, walking up with N by his side.
"Oh my, N, you're traveling with Ash?" Delia asked.
N smiled. "Yes mom, I am."
"Well, you better be taking good care of you little brother." Delia said.
"I am." N sighed.
"Now, as to answer your question Ash, I'm here with Professor Oak" Delia answered.
"Hey Ash, is that your mom?" Damon asked.
"Yep." Ash nodded.
"That's cool. Nice to meet you, Mrs. Ketchum. I'm Damon" he said with a smile.
"Nice meeting you too, and please call me Delia." she replied.
"That's Misty over there, that's Brock, that's Mark, and finally that's Iris." Ash said, motioning to each one of his friends.
"There you are, Delia" professor Oak said, walking up. Ash's stomach growled suddenly and he rubbed his head sheepishly.
"Hey guys, let's go eat." Damon suggested, saving Ash from some embarrassment, so they all went to go get dressed and eat. After returning all his Pokémon, Ash and the others went to a restaurant called Moe's and found out that he needed more customers so the group helped him. Then it ended up in a disaster as everything went wrong when they got a lot of customers.
"Why not participate in the beauty contest? They are in need of a place to hold it, so why not advertise the restaurant so they can eat while I'ts going on." Professor Oak suggested. So with that underway now and Misty participating in the contest, they got a bunch of customers. All went well until Gary Oak showed up.
"I, the great Gary Oak, am here to say that Ash is a loser and a poor Pokémon trainer!" Gary Oak said into a microphone. Ash hung his head in shame, truly believing Gary. Psyblade popped out of his Poké Ball and used Psychic to give Gary a wedgie.
'Serves him right.' Psyblade stated as everyone laughed at Gary.
'I was going to do something if you hadn't' Blade stated, powering down an aura sphere.
'What exactly were you going to do with the aura sphere?' Psyblade questioned.
'I was going to shoot it in his face' Blade said calmly as if it was the most normal thing in the world.
'Oh' Psyblade sweat dropped.
'Take that Gary, no one insults our trainer!' Fang growled, not knowing about the conversation that went on between Blade and Psyblade.
Ash smiled. "Thanks guys."
'You're welcome. I can't stand guys like him.' Psyblade said.
'I couldn't stand him the first time we met him and I can't stand him now.' Blade stated.
"Ash Ketchum, that thing is your Pokémon isn't it?!" Gary growled, walking, well waddling actually, up to Ash.
"Psyblade is not a thing!" Ash snapped, he could stand Gary talking bad about him but not his Pokémon. Gary looked taken aback for a second by Ash actually responding to him instead of shying away.
"Aww, did I offend the wittle Ashy boy?" Gary teased. Ash had to be held back by N this time for Ash wanted to punch Gary in the face.
'Ash he's not worth it; he's just a bully and bullies never learn.' Blade soothed, calming Ash down.
"Yeah you're right, he's not worth it." Ash agreed. Suddenly a Pokémon who had been following Ash ever since it saw his pokemon plead for him walked up and growled at Gary. This pokemon was a large but sleek dark grey, almost black, cat pokemon. It has large ears and prominent thick black whiskers and three muted gold zigzags that looked like lightning bolts going across its body. This pokemon was a tither, a dark electric type pokemon (fakemon created by psychiceevee013 please claim your reward through pm).
"Hello there, I noticed you were following me through the ocean, swimming. Would you like to come with me?" Ash asked her.
'Yes! My name is Pearl and I was abandoned by my pack for being the runt of the litter. I know you have a lot of abandoned Pokémon, but I was hoping you could make room for me." the tither asked, eyes pleading.
"Yes of course I can. I promise I will never abandon you, Pearl." Ash swore, catching her in a Poké Ball then letting her back out to scan her.
/Tither. Its claws are normally not seen, as they are normally pulled into their sheaths. This tither is female with the ability Intimidate. Its known moves are Thunder Claw, Thunder Fang, Dragon Tail, iron tail, Aqua Tail, Wild Charge, Psychic, Assurance, Water Wheel, Volt Tackle, Flame Wheel, Bite, Dark Pulse, Embargo, Dark Void, Feint Attack, Hone Claws, Night Daze, Night Slash, Charge, Charge Beam, Discharge, Volt Switch, Electro Ball, Nuzzle, Parabolic Charge, Shock Wave, Spark, Thunder, Thunderbolt, Thunder Shock, Zap Cannon, Power Gem, Rock Slide, Flamethrower, Stealth Rock, Dragon Breath, Close Combat, Ice Beam, Frost Breath, Ice Fang, Fire Fang, Draining Kiss, Moon Blast, Dazzling Gleam, Icy Wind, Night Shade, Phantom Force, Shadow Ball, Shadow Sneak, Poison Fang, Poison Tail, Toxic, Sludge Bomb, and Vennoshock.
