Hoenn Part 24

Ash and his friends go to visit the Meteor Falls, where they find Drake's ship there.

"It is Drake's Ship! Do you think he is in there?" May asks.

"Maybe. I can't wait to have a rematch with him." Ash says. "He was strong...Minami and I work together to challenge him, but we still got a tie in the end..."

"I know what you mean." Minami says.

They see Drake standing at the deck of the ship, he sees Ash and his friends and then he says, "I am waiting for your arrival."

He jumps down the ship to meet them, Ash takes out 3 medals. "I only need yours so I can challenge the Champion."

"Very well, Ash. Let's have a battle. And I heard that you use 3 Legendaries to defeat the first three members, I'll tell you once. I am looking forward to battle your legendary."

As the battle begins, Drake sends out Dragonite while Ash sends out Walrein.

"A good choice. Walrein is an ice type." Mark remarks.

"I wonder how Drake will battle." May says.

"Before we start the battle." Drake says, "I am the last of the Pokémon League Elite Four, Drake the Dragon master! In their natural state, Pokémon are wild living things. They are free. At times, they hinder us. At times, they help us. For us to battle alongside Pokémon as partners, do you know what it takes? Do you know what is needed? If you don't, you will never prevail over me!"

"Of course I know. Which is why I can face you here and now." Ash replies.

Dragonite starts up with a Dragon Breath, but Walrein uses Stockpile to raise defenses. Then Ash starts to mimic Glacia's tactic, not long after, Dragonite is tired and Ash finishes him off with an Ice Ball.

"Hm… this is Glacia's tactic, isn't it?"

"Yes. I usually tries to let my Pokemon learn some battle styles from others, so I can improve and learn."

"Very well. Here is my next Pokemon. Kingdra!"

Kingdra defeats Walrein by using Scald to burn and wasting time to make Walrein lost PP.

"Wow, finally… " Max says as he is a little boring.

"Talk about it. Although It is great to see 2 water types." Reisa says.

Ash sends out Gardevoir next. Ash uses Eye contact to command her moves, Gardevoir uses Fairy Wind to hit Kingdra badly and finishes it off with a Moonblast.

Drake uses Flygon next. Since Gardevoir often dodges his Dragon pulse and Super Sonic, he uses Earthquake to knock her out the field. Ash sends out Sylveon. She uses Double Team to avoid the Supersonic, and then using Fairy Wind to hit him simultaneously, it is defeated after a Play Rough.

Altaria is his 4th Pokemon. Altaria uses Steel Wing to hit her badly. Ash tries to use Attract, but turns out that Altaria is a female and she uses another Steel Wing to knock it out.

Ash sends out Salamence as his fourth Pokemon. Salamence uses Dragon Rush, while Altaria uses Dazzling Gleam to make it miss. Then Altaria uses Sing, causing Salamence to fall asleep. She uses the opportunity to hit Salamence with Dragon Breath, but Salamence wakes up and fires a Dragon Tail, while Altaria uses Dragon Pulse. Two of them faint at the same time.

"Here is my last Pokemon. Salamence!" Drake sends out his Salamence, who roars.

Ash says, "Rayquaza, I choose you!"

Rayquaza roars when it appears, Max says, "A Rayquaza… I believe I can see it in front of my eyes."

Minami says, "Yeah, it looks so cool in person."

Both of them mega evolve and starts the battle. Salamence uses Dragon Pulse, while Rayquaza uses Hyper Beam to negate it. Then he uses Extreme Speed while Salamence uses Fly. They have an aerial battle until Ash wraps it up using Dragon Ascent.

"Salamence is unable to battle, Rayquaza wins, which means the victory goes to Ash Ketchum!" Lillie says.

Drake laughs, "Man. I haven't had a nice battle like this. Here is your Dragon Medal." Ash grabs it and thanks him.

"Ash. Let me tell you one more thing. You deserve every credit for coming this far as a Pokémon Trainer. You do seem to know what is needed. Yes, what a Trainer needs is a true and virtuous heart. It is through their contact with Trainers that Pokémon learn right from wrong. The influence of their Trainers' good hearts helps them grow strong!"

"I see. Thank you for the advice." Ash says,

After Drake set sails, Lillie says, "You have all four medals, which means you can fight the champion!"

"Yeah. I can't wait to see Dad versus Ash." Reisa says.


They head back to Ever Grande City, where Wallace, Steven, Reshow and Lisia are waiting for them. From the looks of it, Wallace has been training Lisia with the contest moves.

"Hey, Ash! How is your battle?" Lisia leans closer to Ash, only to be pulls away by Reisa.

"You are making him uncomfortable, Lisia." Steven adds as Reisa tries to pull Lisia away.

"I know, Dad, help me!" Lisia yells as everyone laughs, then Wallace turns to Ash and says, "So you get all 4 medals, as expected from you."

When Ash go to the field, there are a lot of fan girls and they are cheering for him. As for Wallace's surprise opening, they cheer even louder.

Lillie says, "Why do I feel a little jealous…"

Reshow says, "That is because Ash is famous, the same goes to Dad. They have a lot in common you know, and both of them are Champions and Top Coordinators."

Reisa says, "She is right. Lillie, you have to be quick or else he will be taken away." Lillie blushes at the comment.

The referee then states that the battle be a full battle, Minami says, "Wow, Ash can become the fourth region champion if he win this."

"Yeah. I hope Ash can win." May says.

Steven says, "Though I wonder how will the battle turn out."

The first Pokemon Wallace choose is Wailord. Ash sends out Meganium first. Meganium uses Vine Whip to hit Wailord, but Wailord uses Blizzard, causing Meganium to get hurt. Then Meganium uses Energy Ball, which hit Wailord. Wailord uses Heavy Slam, causing Meganium to be under him. Meganium then fires Petal Blizzard to send him flying and defeat him.

Next is Gyarados, who defeat Meganium with an Ice Fang. Ash sends out Manectric next. Manectric uses Electric Terrain to power up his Electric moves, then using Wild Charge to finish it off.

Whiscash is Wallace's 3rd Pokemon. Due to being Ground Type, Manectric can't do much damage. And Manectric is defeated by a powerful Earthquake. Sceptile is Ash's next choice. Sceptile uses Bullet Seed and even jumps high to dodge the attack. Then Whiscash uses Rock Tomb to surround Sceptile, only to be knocked out by Dual Chop.

"Since one has three Pokemon unable to battle, there will be a 5 minute break!" The referee says.

When Ash is in the resting room, Ash says, "Pikachu, can you wear this?"

Absol and Sylveon are snickering as Ash takes out the Idol Costume that is for Cosplay Pikachu. Pikachu groans and says, "Why now?"

"So you can show your cuteness." Ash winks at him.

"Ash!" He feels embarrassed as he fires a Thunderbolt, which shocks Ash.

"Hehehe. This is worth it." He says.

When they get back, Wallace sends out Ludicolo, Ash sends out Beautifly, which catches a lot of fans' eyes. Beautifly uses Solar Beam, which Ludicolo dodges and it uses Ice Beam, which freezes the wings of Beautifly. Beautifly uses Gust before it lands on the ground. But it breaks free using Struggle Bug and defeat Ludicolo with Bug Buzz. Wallace sends out Tentacruel, it defeats Beautifly by using Sludge Wave.

"Alright, Deoxys, I choose you!" Ash sends out the Pokemon and earns shock from everyone.

"What is that?" Max asks.

"Deoxys, the alien Pokemon from outer space. It is what inside the meteor." Lillie explains.

"So the meteor approaching is because of this Pokemon..." Steven mutters. "To think there are Pokemon from outer space..."

Deoxys uses Hyper Beam to hit Tentacruel, then they all have a tug out war using their tentacles. Then Deoxys finishes off with the Psycho Boost.

"Well, Ash. I see you are a strong trainer. But here is my last hope. Milotic!"

Milotic appears on the field, its beauty catches a lot of people's eyes.

Ash recalls Deoxys and sends out Sceptile. Both of them Mega evolve in the end. Sceptile tries to evade Milotic's attacks and using Leaf Blade. But it is defeated by a Blizzard.

"Wow, not only it is beautiful, it is also powerful." Mark says.

"That is my father. I am always proud of him." Reisa says.

"I know the feeling, it is just like the time when Ash fought Dad." Max says.

Ash says, "Alright. Pikachu! Make an cute entrance!"

Pikachu, who is wearing a idol costume, appears in front of the crowds and gives a wink.

"So~~Cute~~" The crowd says in union.

Lillie says, "Why does Pikachu changes his gender for now and wears that costume?"

Lisia says, "Oh, I made those costumes, it can give Pikachu some special powers."

Milotic uses another Water Pulse, but Pikachu uses Quick Attack and dodges it. Then using Thunderbolt to make a lot of damage.

"Now for the ending, Draining Kiss!" Pikachu winks again and then runs to Milotic, giving him a kiss.

"Milotic is unable to battle, Pikachu wins! Which means the match goes to Ash Ketchum!"

Ash cheers the victory with Pikachu, Absol and Sylveon. Max says, "He really did it! He is the Hoenn Champion!"

Wallace recalls his Pokemon, then he is tackled by Reisa and Reshow together. He is surprised as Reisa says, "Dad, you are awesome!"

Wallace smiles at them, then he turns to Ash. "Congratulations, Ash. You won against me fair and square. You are the new champion."

"Indeed." Steven says. "You really are a material for a Champion."

"Thank you, Uncle Wallace, Uncle Steven." Ash says. Then Goodshow also arrives to congratulates Ash.

"This is your forth time Champion, right?" Goodshow asks Ash after congratulating him.

"Yes. But my offer is still the same." Ash says.

"I know. Please follow me to the Hall of Fame."

They register Ash to the Hall of fame, then after the crowd leaves, Wallace says to Ash.

"Ash. Before you leave, I have something to tell you." Wallace says, much to everyone's confusion.

"What is it?" Ash asks.

"You know about Wallace Cup, right?" Wallace asks.

"I know, it is a special kind of contest that makes you the judge, and the ribbon earned from the Cup can be used in every regions." Ash says.

"I am glad that you know about it." Wallace says to him, "The reason I tell you about this is because I want you to attend it once."

Ash looks at everyone, who smiles at him, then he says, "Sure, if I encounter one, I will be entering it for sure."

Then they wave goodbye to Wallace, Steven, Reshow and Lisia.

Then they arrives at Oldale Town, May and Max are going back to their home.

"Well… I am going to miss your cooking." May says as they are having lunch.

"Well, I can share some recipes for you." Minami says.

"So where are we going?" Lillie asks Ash.

"I called Dad, he says that we should go to Kanto since everyone is there waiting for us, including Professor Pine."

"Okay." Reisa says.

After lunch, they bid farewell to the Maple siblings as the five of them going to Kanto by ferry.


Now the Hoenn Arc is finished. Next will be the Kanto Battle Frontier and Contests. There will be not much differences from the anime. But I will let Ash and Lillie capture some more team members. I have those in mind, you can guess which Pokemon will be.
