Few people states that these all are the act of ghosts of Lavendar also reported that paranormal activities are taking place in this tower between twelve and three in and adults are requested to stay away from this place especially those who are not pokemon trainers ." said reporter.

"Those ghost pokemon are surely trouble makers," said Misty

"Right, disturbing humans that are not pokemon trainers is not good at all," said Brock

"Guys, I have an idea," said Ash

"Don't say that you want to capture those troublesome pokemon," said Misty

"Well I wanted to capture the ghosts that are living there, but for you guys, " said Ash

"I am okay with water types" said Misty

"And I am okay with rock types," said Brock who is polishing the Drednaw

"Well I can handle ghost type," said Sabrina

"Okay then, let's go there tonight. Dusknoir, Lucario, Zeraora, Bisharp and Gardevoir are you ready " asked Ash to which they nodded

"We will come as well," said Pikachu, Charmendar, Froakie,Bulbasaur and Squirtle

"Sure, and rest of you please have a rest here, " said Ash

Same night Ash and Sabrina reached the Lavender Town's infamous ghost tower.

"So this is infamous ghost tower. Let's go inside" said Sabrina as they entered the tower.

Ash and Sabrina enters the tower which is dark but there are few torches that are attached to the walls of tower there is a huge staircase that went upwards.

"Ash there is a grave of pokemon on top of tower," said Sabrina

Ash and Sabrina started to walk upstairs until they heard a low voice. "Catch me, "

"Did you hear that," asked Ash

"Yes, and I believe these are ghost types," said Sabrina

"Shhh, don't even dare to come upstairs."

"Go back, "

Ash and Sabrina heard another voice as a shadow passed the duo that dropped the temperature around them

"It's Gengar," said Ash as all of sudden a sword charged at Ash but he created wall of aura and protected Sabrina and himself.

"What Aegislash doing here in Kanto," asked Ash as Aegislash wrapped its ribbon on Ash's hand and started to absorb life force from Ash's body.

"Leave my cousin alone," said Sabrina as she launched wave of psychic energy but Aegislash is still absorbing life force of Ash.

"Take this " said Pikachu as he launched powerful thunderbolt but Aegislash still latched on to Ash's arm.

"You cannot take my energy, take this" said Ash as he send pulse of aura in Aegislash that made Aegislash left Ash's arm.

"No wonder what happened to those kids who enters this place," said Sabrina

"We need to be careful, we don't know what different ghost types we may encounter" said Ash as he released Lucario, Gardevoir and Dusknoir

After walking for two more minutes they felt presence of something.

"Please don't kill me," said a voice which belongs to a small few moments Ash and Sabrina spotted a girl in a white cape carrying a candle stick and on top of that there is a candle.

"Litwick in Kanto region," asked Ash as litwik jumperd on the floor and launched flamethrower

"Lucario aura sphere," said Ash after which litwik disappeared

"Hmm, it seems they migrated here," said Sabrina as all of sudden a girl disappeared and a ball of gas passed Ash and Sabrina

"Wait where did that girl disappeared," said Ash

"This is a ghost tower Ash, and what you expect here. " asked Sabrina

After walking upstairs for more minutes, they enters the corridor and there are multiple strange started to happen. The corridor started to distort and then they both started to feel very weak. Pikachu on other hand started to feel like he is going to vomit.

"You okay Pikachu," asked Ash

"This is ghost tower Ash and I don't think that bringing Pikachu here was a good idea" said Sabrina

"You are right, Gardevoir please take Pikachu back to the gym" said Ash to which she nodded but pikachu disagreed.

"If you wanted to stay here then its your wish," said Ash as all of sudden a black aura surrounded Pikachu and his eyes become white with black pupil, and he started to levitate.

"Crap, pikachu is possessed " said Sabrina

"You humans get the hell out of here, this is our 't invade our privacy" said pikachu in ghostly voice.

"We are not here to invade your privacy, we are here to investigate the cause of disappearing humans," said Sabrina

"We promise that we don't try to disturb your peace," said Ash

"You humans are liar, last time group of humans came here, but they took our fellow ghost types, " said Pikachu

"What you mean," asked Ash as Pikachu fall on the floor there is a message in the air that states "You will die soon,"

"You okay Pikachu," asked Ash as Pikachu opened his eyes and started to cough blood

"Wh..wh..what happened " asked Pikachu

"You were possessed, " said Ash

"Don't worry you will be okay soon" said Lucario

"Everyone let's create a protective shield around yourself," said Ash

"Sabrina this place is creepier than we thought," said Ash

"Dusknoir can you go and search for the ghosts of this place, " asked Ash to which it nodded and disappeared

"Let's go upstairs and find the cause of disappearing humans," said Ash .After walking for a while, Ash and Sabrina got attacked by colony of golbat and zubat.

"Bulbasaur use razor leaf! Charmender use flamethrower! Squirtle use ice beam !" said Ash as three pokemon obeyed and launched their respective attacks. Three pokemon knocked out the colony of Zubat and Golbat.

"Nice job, let's go" said Ash as he and Sabrina rushed towards the top of the ghost Dusknoir came near Ash.

"What, team rocket is here," asked Ash

"Yes, I heard that they were speaking about capturing ghost pokemon of this tower as this place is directly connected to distortion world," said Dusknoir

"Sabrina get ready, we have to face team rocket," said Ash

"I was waiting for this from a long time," said Sabrina as she brings one of her pokeball.

"Sabrina, the top floor is being guarded by the team rocket grunts and their pokemon. We need to be careful" said Ash closed his eyes and looked for the surrounding aura until he found aura of kids and adults. There were around hundreds of adults and kids that were held captive in the big hall.

"Something is strange," said Sabrina

"Think for a second, if team rocket is here then they must be well aware that we are here, and they could have stopped us at the very bottom of this tower" added Sabrina

"But they didn't try to stop us," said Sabrina

"You are right," said Ash

"Sabrina jump," said Ash as he took Sabrina's hand and jumped off the corridor and formed the platform out of aura. Ash's pokemon also jumped after which explosion occurs on the corridor in which they were standing. Ash and Sabrina are surrounded by multiple grunts and their pokemon.

"You think that you all could defeat us," asked Ash as he gave signal to Lucario, Dusknoir and released her Gardevoir, Espeon, Raichu, and Alakazam as well.

"Bulbasaur, Squirtle, Charmendar get ready guys," said Ash as he released his Froakie, Zeraora and Bisharp too.

"Everyone get ready, we have to save the , Zeraora, Froakie, Charmendar come with me. Bisharp, Gardevoir, Dusknoir you stay here and handle these and Squirtle help them too.

" Ok" said Ash's pokemon

"Gardevoir, Espeon you handle them too

and once you clear this place then meet us on top of the tower," said Sabrina as she and Ash with their pokemon teleported to top of the tower.

"What are you doing here," asked one grunt as he fired bullets at Ash and Sabrina. Sabrina's eyes glowed blue and sent bullets back at grunts which killed rocket's pokemon attacks Ash and Sabrina.

"Charmander use flamethrower, Froakie use water pulse, Lucario and Zeraora use close combat" said Ash.

Ten minutes later all team rocket grunts are dead and their pokemon are defeated as well. As Ash and Sabrina enters on of the room near main hall, they saw multiple ghost types and other pokemon also held captive inside glass chambers.

"Lucario and Zeraora destroy the chambers," said Ash

Thirty minutes later Ash and Sabrina defeated the all the grunts and their pokemon and are now in front of the kids and adults.

"Everyone you are safe now, team rocket is defeated and you can leave now," said Ash as he and Sabrina started to free the hostages.

"You cannot let them free," said a person from behind.

"Not that easily," said Sabrina as Gardevoir launched shadow ball that knocked out the Aggron beside him charged at Sabrina's Gardevoir which is knocked back by psychic pulse and aura sphere.

"You cannot foil our plan to take over distortion world or we can say realm of ghosts." said the person "Aggron use hyper beam,"

"Plan is foiled," said Ash as he formed aura sphere and launched it at the guy knocking him out instantly.

After one hour of hard battling all team rocket grunts are now defeated by Ash and Sabrina and hostages helped them too.

"Thanks for informing us, and these all are those people who reported thought that ghosts of lavender tower are

doing this but we didn't know that it was team rocket behind this." said Jenny as she took away the criminals and all hostages.

"Now it is cleared that ghost pokemon of this tower are innocent," said Ash as he looked at all of the ghost pokemon that are assembled in front of ghost pokemon are dancing happily as they got rid of team rocket.

"Now you can stay safe here, no one will invade your property." said Ash and Sabrina

"But the question is, why didn't you scared the team rocket, you are ghost for god sake," said Ash slightly confused making them cry.

"Don't cry, I understand that not all ghosts are evil and you are good ones, " said Ash

"We have to go now, stay safe and be strong. If you ever found team rocket in your property, then scare them away," said Sabrina to which they nodded after which Ash and Sabrina started to walk back to Saffron city

After walking for a long ten minutes Ash and Sabrina could sense ghost types following them.

"What are you doing here" asked Ash as he turns behind

"Wait, we want to join you," said Gengar

"Please take us with you," said Haunter, Ghastly , Litwick, Benette, Chandelure, Aegislash, Misdreavus ,Rotom, Duskull.

"But what about lavender ghost tower, what you call home," asked Ash

"They can come here anytime they want," said Sabrina

"I have Dusknoir, so Gengar, Aegislash, Litwick do you guys want to join me " asked Ash

"Yes we will join you," said the ghost trio

"Chandelure, Misdreavus, Rotom, Haunter, Duskull, Benette, Ghastly would you join my team," asked pokemon happily joined their new friends.

One hour later Ash and Sabrina reached the gym.

"So, it was team rocket" asked Misty

"Yes and we defeated them, they are now with cops" said Ash

"I missed the fun," said Misty

"Yes you did and we both present you our new ghost friends." said Ash as Gengar licked Misty and Litwick set Misty's hairs on fire
