Chapter 66 Trap In Nightmares

Now Ash and Lillie are at Samsara Cave, they see the Insigma in front of them and Ash says, "I can't believe that they even put some tasks in the Dream Realm."

"Me too, but since it is your dream realm, this is probably the way how you can kill them." Lillie says with a smile.

"You're right. Now let's go in." Ash says as they have Mew transform into Hoopa and uses the Hyperspace Hole to enter the place. And just as Ash predicted, the traitors also enter the Dream Realm to chase after Ash and Lillie.

But as the traitors are inside, they find the place being dark and gloomy, Max asks, "What is this place? Somehow it gives me a shivering feeling..."

"I know what you mean." Samuel Oak says as he looks into the air, seeing the images of Ash Ketchum's memories. "And why are those memories in the sky?"

Ash and Lillie ignore them on purpose and Lillie asks, "So Ash, what does it feel getting back to your own dream world?"

"Well, I can't believe when my parents have gone missing, this is where they are. And I still remember I battled Dad here in this Erubus Gym for the final Badge." Ash says.

The traitors are surprised as they realize that they are in Ash's dream, and they follow Ash as they get past REM Ocean and Coristol Road, eventually getting to Prion Town. They find a house with a Black Belt, and Ash says, "I have a Doduo, I want to trade for your Level 1 Pokemon."

"Sure. Here you are." The man gives him a Pokemon, and it turns out to be a Delta Doduo.

Delta Doduo: The Dual Control Pokemon: Psychic Type. Though it possesses two independent brains, one brain will always inevitably usurp control over the other.

"How about we train it at Coristol Road?" Ash asks, and Lillie nods. "There is a lot of Ghost Type Pokemon, so it should be a perfect place to train."

As they are training, the traitors are now surprised by the Ghost Type Pokemon around the area, and Misty says, "I somehow really hated this place..."

"Yeah. I want to get out of here." Clemont says.

"But we still have yet to get the flute that Ash owned. If we get that flute, we will be able to get out." Samuel Oak says.

After a while, Ash's Doduo evolves into a Dodrio, much to their delight.

Delta Dodrio: The Triple Control Pokemon: Psychic Type. Evolved from Doduo at LV:31. Even while aware of mind control, the three heads are cooperative with one another. As one head falls asleep, another awakens and becomes the manipulator.

"Good, now let's go back to the real world." Lillie says as they ride on Dodrio and runs away. The traitors see them run away as they quickly chase them. But just as they stop at Erubus City, Ash says, "Do you think I didn't notice you guys getting in my own dream world?"

This causes the traitors to be surprised, and Ash says, "Do you think you can just come here without my permission?"

"Oh yeah? We are here, so what?" Samuel Oak asks.

"So you are not going to get out of here forever. This place is going to be your doom place." Lillie says, and it causes them to be surprised. "Is that supposed to scare us?" Max asks, but Ash knows they are trembling.

"Oh, this is not the worst, you guys trapping in here is the way to scare you." Ash says as he opens the portal with Hoopa, and when Ash and Lillie get in, they quickly close the gate, causing the traitors to get trapped. "Oh no!" Samuel Oak says in surprise.

"Now we really can't get out..." Brock says with horror.


Back in the real world, Ash and Lillie have released the ones in the Reversal World, and Ash says, "Now they won't be able to target you all, so you can just come out without being scared at them."

Kiawe asks, "What did you do to them? Did you really kill them?"

"No, we haven't done that yet, we just imprisoned them in Ash's Dream World. Right now they don't have any means to get out unless they can find Hoopa."

"How did you do that?" Cilan asks, "I mean, your Dream World?"

"You can thank Darkrai for creating it as it was originally where my parents are after the Cult of Darkrai kidnapped us." Ash says. "Since I have my own Gengar, all I need to do is using Dream Eater on myself to wipe them out of existence."

"That sounds harsh, but I guess it is reasonable. So where should we go?" Mallow asks, and Ash says, "Maybe you can just travel around this region to explore what this place has to offer."

"That sounds good." Sophocles says.

After bidding farewell to them, they decide to continue their quests.

Then they decide to head to Holon Desert, as they get to a small plateau. Ash says, "Lillie, do you have your Hiking Boots with you?"

"Of course. We just need to Rock Climb this mountain, right?" Lillie asks and Ash nods.

Then they start to climb until they reach the top, and Ash says, "It is not that high, compared to Cyllage Gym."

"But it sure is tiring." Lillie says. And they find the Pokmeon they are looking for, the Delta Tangela. Ash says, "It looks like it is made of Tumbleweed."

"Yeah." Lillie says as they manage to capture the Pokemon.

Delta Tangela: The Tumbleweed Pokémon: Ground Type. It lures prey towards its home in the earth before grabbing and pinning them.

"And it is a good thing that it learns Ancient Power, now we just need to train it into one level to evolve it." Ash says as they do so, and by battling Mega Kangaskhan, it evolves into a Tangrowth.

Delta Tangrowth: The Tumbleweed Pokemon: Ground and Fighting Type. A vicious Pokémon spreads its tendrils beneath the ground, ensnaring unsuspecting trespassers. It uses their cries for help to lure more prey.

"That sounds terrifying if it is capable of ensnaring unsuspecting trespassers. It is a good thing that we captured it before anyone can come here." Lillie says.

"Yeah, now let's go find another one." Ash says as they leave the area.


They then head to Holon Jungle, Lillie says, "This place sure is complicated..."

"I know, according to my Dad, we need to head south in the trees, though I don't know how far we should go." Ash says as they continue to head south, after getting rid of vines that tried to block them or tangled on them, they finally reach a small opening.

"So what Delta Pokemon we are going to find here?" Lillie asks.

"I think that will be the one." They see a Bug-like Pokemon flying towards them, and Lillie asks, "Is that a Kabutos? I mean...now it has become a Bug Type?"

"I guess so, we should capture it." Ash says as they attack the Pokemon with their own moves, and eventually capture this Pokemon.

Delta Kabuto: The Beetle Pokémon: Bug and Dark Type. Though they buzz harmlessly when alone, a swarm can decimate a city's worth of crops within minutes.

"I thought it will be living in farmlands, though why did it live here instead?" Lillie says.

"Who knows?" Ash shrugs, and then they train the Pokemon by battling some wild Pokemon in the area, and then they evolve it at LV:40.

Delta Kabutops: The Beetle Pokemon: Bug and Dark Type. Evolved from Kabuto at LV:40. This Pokémon's changes during evolution led to it becoming a carnivore instead of an herbivore. It hovers above trees in search of prey.

"From a plant-eater to a meat-eater...that sure is terrifying." Lillie says. "But even though it is a Big Type, it can only use Fury Cutter and X-Scissors."

"I know, there aren't many Bug Type Physical attacks." Ash says. "And I guess let's go to Holon Lake for our last Pokemon before we go back home."

"I agree. We did capture a lot of new Delta Pokemon today." Lillie says.


"I can't believe we find this place here in Holon Lake." Lillie says as they are now inside of the cave that they find when they dive underwater, Ash says, "I know. And there is another Rock Climbing spot."

As they climb up to the spot, they find another water area as they dive, they find a Dratini which is blue and yellow-colored looking at them with a curious look. After capturing the Pokemon, they quickly get back to the surface and look at the data of this Pokemon.

Delta Dratini: The Sea Snake Pokemon: Water and Electric Type. Because its body constantly releases electrical energy, it prefers to hide within the depths of the ocean.

"So Delta Dratini is now a Sea Snake, and it is Water and Electric Type..." Lillie says.

"Yeah, and I guess we should train really hard if we want it to become a Delta Dragonite." Ash says.

With the type advantage, they train in the Holon Lake, and eventually Dratini is now a powerful Dragonite after hours of training.

Delta Dragonair: The Sea Snake Pokemon: Water and Electric Type. Evolved from Dratini at LV:30. Having better control over its power, it can sometimes be seen peeking above the ocean surface. If it sneezes, it loses a massive discharge of electricity.

Delta Dragonite: The Sea Snake Pokemon: Water and Electric Type. Evolved from Dragonair at LV:55. A courageous and kind Pokémon, it braves storms to lead shipwrecked crews to land. It can travel underwater at a speed of 400 knots.

"That is 205 meters per second...this is really fast." Lillie says.

"I know, now that we're done, let's get back to Gaea Town." Ash says as Lillie nods.


Once they head back to Gaea Town, Delia is chatting with Lusamine in their own mansion, Delia asks, "Ash, Lillie. How are you two doing?"

"We're doing fine. And we did capture some Delta Pokemon in our team." Ash says.

"That sounds interesting." Lusamine says. "And I heard that those people are still following you, right?"

"We trapped them in my Dream World just like how the Cult of Darkrai used to trap us as well." Lillie says. "They won't be able to get out of there unless they have a Hoopa with them."

"I see...as the Kanto Champion myself, I have already provoked Brock and Misty's Gym Leader titles, and Diantha also provoked Clemont's title, so even if they can get out of there, they are not going to be Gym Leaders anymore."

"Yeah, and we also saved some of them who are just like Serena." Ash lies, as he doesn't want the others to know that they did this of their free will and they regretted it in the end.

"Really? So you mean Serena isn't the only one under hypnosis?" Delia asks.

"It turns out that our friends from Alola and Cilan are also suffering the same fate, we managed to break their hypnosis and we hid them until those traitors are in Ash's dream world." Lillie says.

"I see...no wonder it is weird since they would betray Ash as Ash didn't tell them about their other league performances." Lusamine says as they all nod. Then they decide to wait for the others to come back as they rest for the day.


Here is a new chapter, and in the next chapter, Ash and Lillie are going to start with their Legendary Pokemon quests. I hope you like this chapter and you know what will happen to the traitors in the end.
