AU, ShiShi. Satoshi has been Master for eight years without fail and feels he has nothing left to accomplish with his life. However, when an old friend requires his reluctant help, Satoshi's life changes and nearly-forgotten memories start to re-emerge.

After becoming Champion, Satoshi doesn't know where he wants his life to go. But when he goes to a place he's visited in the past, he finds himself visiting the past quite literally, with a bitter and lovesick Shigeru along for the ride. Palletshipping.

Old habits return with old routines. Palletshipping, one shot.
