Koharu no longer has problems with boys, and she's followed her dreams.

Alright then, let's get on with the story!

Chapter 1:

Ash and Gou are still sleeping. Ash on the top bunk, Gou on the bottom. Light streams through the open windows-Koharu must've opened them.

Koharu is waiting for them to wake up.

She's in a soft chair by the desk, petting Boltund.

Pikachu jumps off of the top bunk, he just woke up.

Pikachu and Boltund wrestle on the ground. They're being quite loud, but Koharu doesn't do anything to quiet them down. Those two should wake up by now, it's 9:00.

Ash wakes up and descends the ladder. Gou woke up because the ladder was a little loud, and because of the Pokémon being loud.

"Morning, Koharu!" they both say.

"Good morning, you two!" Koharu says, both kissing them on the lips.

"So, what will you do today? Koharu says brightly.

"Not sure. Maybe we should eat?"

Ash says.

"Yeah, I'm hungry. Let's go downstairs."

They ate a delicious meal of some Dynamax Curry.

"Man, that was delicious!" Ash exclaims.

"What to do now...?"

"Let's hang out at the Sakuragi Institute, we can do something there." Gou says.

They go to the Insititute, it's not too far away.

While they're there, they run into Hop.

"Hey, Hop! What's up?"

"Not much, Ash. I've been wanting to battle you sometime, and since we're both here..." Hop says.

"Alright. You pick the rules." Ash determinedly says.

"Full battle, no legendaries/mythical Pokémon! Meet you at the Battlefield in an hour, make sure to prep your Pokémon!" Hop energetically says.

"Alright! Come on, Pikachu!" Ash says, and runs off with Hop following.

"Those guys... they're so decisive! Well, it should make for an interesting battle for sure." Koharu muses.

1 HOUR LATER

"Both participants have agreed upon the rules of No Legendaries and a Full Battle!" Gou, their mutual friend and the referee of the battle said. Gou sets up a camera and starts streaming the battle online, after all, it'll be a true clash of giants.

"Alright, Ash. Which Pokémon did ya pick?" Hop yells.

"I picked... Pikachu, Mr. Mime, Dragonite, Gengar, Duraludon, and Inteleon!" Ash yells back, sending each one out as he calls their name.

"Interesting. Okay, I chose..."

"Cinderace, Mimikyu, Glaceon, Umbreon, Tyranitar, and...Onix." Hop shouts.

"Hmm, it looks like Hop definetly has a type advantage over Ash, most of his Pokémon counter Ash's Pokémon." Koharu says to her Boltund.

"Do your best, guys!" Koharu, their cheerleader, yells.

They send their first Pokémon out, Pikachu and Onix.

There's a back-and-forth. Hop has a theoretical advantage, but he doesn't have the experience of Ash. Hop's Onix is too slow for Pikachu, so Ash has Pikachu hit Onix with multiple Iron Tails.

Pikachu finally gets caught by Onix, who uses Rock Tomb. It's super effective. It lands Pikachu right beside Ash, and you can tell that Pikachu got hurt by it. Ash, knowing that he weakened Onix already, takes Pikachu out and sends Inteleon in.

Inteleon uses Hydro Pump, and it does 2x damage to Onix, making him faint.

Hop sends out...Tyranitar.

It lets out a loud roar, which intimidates Inteleon. It flinched and couldn't do a move. Tyranitar and Inteleon trade shots at each other, and at one point they struggle, with Inteleon being overpowered and shoved to the ground. Inteleon faints.

"Nice going, Tyranitar!" Hop yells.

"You did great, Inteleon. Thanks." Ash says.

Ash calls Mr. Mime out.

"Alright, use Confusion!" Ash says.

"What? Using Confusion only does 50 damage!" Hop says, confusedly.

"That's where you're wrong. Mr. Mime's Ability, Technician, allows a move that is less than 60 base damage to be doubled. Therefore, he does 100 damage." Ash explains, using his brain for once.

While Hop wasn't paying attention, Mr. Mime had finished Tyranitar off.

"Nice work, Mr. Mime!" Ash says, snapping a thinking Hop back to reality.

"What!? Augh, you distracted me!" Hop frustratedly shouts across the battlefield.

"Ha, there's a lesson for you! Always be on your guard!" Ash says.

Mr. Mime's amazing technical moves combines with Ash's battling prowess finishes off Mimikyu, Glaceon, and Umbreon. Umbreon put up a good fight and damaged Mr. Mime enough that there was a double knockout.

Hop, discouraged yet still unfazed sends out his final Pokémon, Cinderace.

Hop calls Cinderace back.

"What is he doing? Is he...forfeiting?" Koharu says in shock.

"Nope, Koharu, I'm Dynamaxing!" Hop says, fired up.

Dynamax was recently installed in the Sakuragi Institute's stadium as part of a research project.

With 4 Max Flare moves, Hop takes out Gengar, Dragonite, and Duraludon.

"So, Hop. Your Dynamax is almost out, but mine is ready! Pikachu, it's time to Dynamax!"

Pikachu nods affirmingly.

"Come on Pikachu, we can wind this battle if we put in as much effort as we can! GIGANTAMAX!"

Pikachu suddenly becomes...giant!

"Now, let's use our special bond and become one! Use our Gigantamax Z-Move...Max Catastropika!"

Pikachu annihilates the Cinderace, not giving it a chance to use its' dreaded Max Flare.

Pikachu turns back into its' normal form, knowing that the Cinderace couldn't have been able to withstand the attack without fainting, even in Gigantamax Form.

"Cinderace is unable to continue! Ash Ketchum is the winner of this battle!" Gou exclaims.

Pikachu, extremely tired, jumps into its' celebrating Trainer's arms.

"We did it, Pikachu! Nice going, buddy!" Ash says to Pikachu.

"As for you, Hop...that was one of the most challenging battle I've had! You really made me think on my feet for a second there. Good job to you and your Pokémon!"

"Thanks. Good job, Cinderace. Now you go get some rest, kay?" Hop says.

Everyone goes to the Pokémon Center to rest their Pokémon. They're smiling all the way there.
