Disclaimer: I do not own the Pokemon franchise. Only this fanfic and story/shipping idea.
It was quite unusual to learn that a girl who was initially suspected to be evil would turn out to have so many layers to her. Ash knew that it was her connection (albeit unusual) to Team Yell that initially had him with his guard up when he first learned her name.
Ash had traveled throughout many different regions in the past six years, and each region always had its own truly "evil" Team. Naturally, Ash initially suspected that this Team Yell gang would be no different.
But this team's unique case showed Ash just how wrong his initial assumptions were. Ash eventually concluded that the "evil" Team Yell really weren't evil at all, and once he got to know their story, it became clear as to why their "heroine" was so important to them. And it was understandable too; no one would want to live in the kind of conditions that they were in. And to them, "she" was their only hope of a way out.
As for the "she" in question, of course she too wanted to see life return to her hometown, but there was so much more to her than that. She was an interesting and complex person both inside and out.
This is the story of how she, thanks first and foremost to Ash, had gotten from where she was in the beginning to where she was now today. Both in regards to her goals, as well as to herself as an individual.
AN: So yeah, this was just a short prologue and hint at things to come in this story. The first full chapter will be posted in a couple of days. Hopefully I will see you all then!
