Disclaimer: I don't own pokemon


It's a new day in Jubilife Village. Bulbasaur walks in the room and saw Ash and Pikachu still sleeping on the bed. Two vines released from.the bulb and Bulbasaur then raises Ash and Pikachu in the air before making them fall on the ground.

"Ouch...what was that for " says Ash as he opened his eyes and noticed Bulbasaur is looking at him with smile.

"Pika pi" says Pikachu angrily as he unleased the thunderbolt which electrocuted Ash and Bulbasaur.

"What was that for " asks Bulbasaur

"For breaking my good sleep" says Pikachu

"Brock told me to wake both of you as breakfast is ready "says Bulbasaur

"Fine we are coming, " says Pikachu

As Ash and Pikachu went out of his room he saw Cynthia and Dawn grooming their pokemon and Brock cooking for them. Ash and his friends decided to create a big house made of wood outside the village so that they can observe their pokemon everytime and the house is near to the village which allow them to get any new task anytime they want.

"Wow Brock, this smells great. " says Ash as he can feel the sweet aroma of the food that Brock is cooking.

"By the way, did anyone came up with a new request" asks Ash to Cynthia

"Not yet, but it seems there is something going inside the village " says Cynthia with a suspicious look

"Dawn, how the things going on. Did you came up some good combinations" asks Ash looking at her friend

"Not really, the creating new combinations are difficult " says Dawn with heavy heart

"I know you can pull this off" says Ash with smile.

"Hi Ash, " says Akari,Adaman and Irida as they arrived at the place where Ash is staying.

"Hey guys, how are you doing. Is there any new noble pokemon going frenzy" asks Ash

"Yeah, and there is one more problem" says Akari with sad look

"What problem, " asks Ash

"Well, there are few instances when small kids of the village starts to disappear. " says Adaman in confusion

"As in they just disappeared or someone kidnapped them" asks Cynthia

"Some people told us during investigation that they saw a spherical object flying away with the kids holding it. " says Adaman

"Hmm, a spherical object flying with the kids" says Brock thinking about all the possibilities.

"I don't know if what I am thinking is right or not but it could be a pokemon" says Brock

"So a balloon like pokemon could be " says Ash as he think hard

"Drifloon !" exclaimed Ash, Dawn, Brock and Cynthia at same time

"We are pretty sure that this could be an act of Drifloon " says Cynthia

"What's Drifloon, " asks Akari in confusion

"Drifloon is a balloon like pokemon, basically it is rumored that Drifloon takes kids away with it to the after life" says Cynthia

"Is that scary, " asks Irida

"Believe me, the ghost pokemon are not easy pokemon to handle" says Brock

"Ash we need your help to resolve this matter. " says Adaman

"I will help you out. But my friends will help you as well. Brock, Dawn and Cynthia, are you with me" asks Ash

"Yup, we are in" says Cynthia

"Can you tell me when these ìncident happened" asks Dawn

"In the night, but sometimes in the day time as well" says Irida

"But majority of the cases are in night time only" says Adaman

"We will investigate this ," says Brock

"Thanks, we will go and inform commander Kamado that you will be taking this request" says Adaman


In the night time Cynthia, Brock , Dawn and Ash are observing the village from their house.

"Do you think this is the right place to protect the village " asks Dawn

"Yes, if we guard the village from inside then it may be possibile that Drifloon don't appear. I have sent Gliscor, Staraptor, Swellow and Noctowl to keep guarding the nearby area and inform us as soon as they spot Drifloon." says Ash

It's already midnight and yet no sign of Drifloon.

One hour later Ash's Staraptor returns and started to say something by signaling in particular direction.

"Great job Staraptor. Guys let's go" says Ash as

Cynthia and others followed Staraptor on their pokemon.Few minutes later they saw a Drifloon taking the kid of age five away with it.Kid is constantly crying in terror.

"Shall we attack that Drifloon " asks Brock

"No, we need to trace other kids as well. Let's wait and see where that Drifloon is going" says Cynthia

After tracking Drifloon, they arrived at the unknown place. Ash and others can see that Drifloon is taking the kid into some cave. There is another Drifloon bringing a new kid. Ash's Gliscor and his other pokemon followed Drifloon.

"We know that this is the place where Drifloon brings all the kidnapped kid. Ash and Brock you get inside the cave, me and Dawn will save the kid " says Ash as he and Brock nodded.

"Spiritomb, Garchomp standby for battle, " says Cynthia sending her Spiritomb and Garchomp.

"Use darkpulse on Drifloon, Garchomp catch the kid" says Cynthia as Spiritomb launched dark pulse that hit Drifloon knocking out it instantly that caused the kid to start falling towards the ground. Garchomp flew in the air and then caught the kid. However, kid got scared and started to cry.

Inside the cave, Ash and Brock are following the Drifloon cautiously. After following Drifloon for ten minutes As Ash and Brocked are approaching their destination, they heard a creepy sound sending shiver down their spine

"Brock are you thinking the same thing we are thinking " asks Ash as he started to shake in fear

"Yes, I don't know how deadly a pokemon can be here. In our original time,some wild pokemon are friendly. Even the Dusknoir that we encounter during our summer camp was trying to protect humans" says Brock

"kekekeke..."

"Did you hear that" asks Ash

"Yes...But don't know from where the sound is coming from" says Brock

"kekekeke..."

"That sound is getting more creepier everytime we venture deep in the cave " says Ash as starts to shake in fear. Even Pikachu is hiding in Ash's kimono.

"kekekeke...kekekeke..."

The sound is getting more creepier and louder as they are getting closer. Ash and Brock walked for next ten minutes they heard massive explosion from behind them.

"Damn ! The path is blocked " says Ash

"We can figure this later on, Let's find the kids" says Brock

As they went inside they saw that the kids are cornered by the multiple Drifloon and there is one Drifblim. And on opposite side the rocks of cave started to disolve and revealed a swirling vortex of ghost energy.

"Drifloon, leave them alone" says Ash yelling at the ghost pokemon.

"Floon" says Drifloon as they glared at Ash and Brock. Drifblim is moving slowly towards the kids and used hypnosis putting them to sleep. Drifblim then started to send the kids in the portal.

"Pikachu use thunderbolt," says Ash as Pikachu unleashed the thunderbolt that hit Drifloon causing them to get angry. All Drifloon then charged at Ash and Brock with shadow ball. Ash released his Infernape, Floatzel and Glalie.

"Infernape, Floatzel, Glalie use countershield but make sure you don't hurt the kids" says Ash

"Pikachu you do that too" says Ash as all four pokemon used countershield that sends streaks of elemental attacks hitting the Drifloon and Drifblim causing severe damage to the balloon pokemon.This really pissed of the Drifloon, all Drifloon then began to unleash Ominous wind. Ash releases his Charizard, Sceptile

"Guys, use thunderbolt, overheat, hydro pump and leaf tornado " says Ash as his pokemon used their attacks that knocked out seventy percent of Drifloon available in the cave. Drifblim is taking kids in the realm of ghosts.

"Sceptile use leaf blade on Drifblim and others defeat Drifloon" says Ash as Ash's Sceptile used agility to get near Driflblim, but Drifblim evaded the attack and used hypnosis putting Sceptile to sleep. Drifblim starts to say something, and then few more Drifloon emerges out of the portal. Just before Ash and Brock could do something, they put them and their pokemon to sleep.


"Brock...Brock wake up ! Wake up Brock" says a familiar voice. Brock opens his eyes and found himself in the cave surrounded by Cynthia and Dawn.

"Ouch" says Brock as he woke up with heavy headache and dizziness

"What happened Brock and where is Ash, " asks Cynthia

"I don't know, Drifblim summons more pokemon of its kind and then it put us to sleep. That's all the stuff that I remember" says Brock

"It seems those ghost types took Ash with them. We can pray for his life, " says Dawn with sad expression.

"And look, Ash's bag is here...It seems those pokemon took Ash and his polemon that were outside their pokeball" says Dawn


An empty space filled with distorted figures, the body of unconscious Ash is floating in the empty space.

"Pikachu... " says the Ash with weak voice. He starts to open its eyes and found itself floating in the empty space. The atmosphere is giving spooky vibe.

"Pikachu...!"

"Charizard...!"

"Floatzel...!

"Infernape...!"

"Glalie...!"

"Where are you guys " says Ash who is looking for his pokemon.

"I wonder where are my pokemon and why I am feeling weak. Is this the side effect of this realm," says Ash to himself

With all his energy Ash thrusts his body forward. I must say the ghost world is scary, and this event taught him that not to mess with the ghosts.

Somewhere in the ghost realm, a fairly large pokemon is floating in the empty space with sad expression.

"This place is so boring, and the ghosts are so mean. I mean we are ghosts ,but it doesn't mean we should hurt humans. " thought the ghost as it floats towards the another part of this dimension.

"Hey, why are you looking sad," asks another spirit pokemon.

"Get the hell out of here, don't disturb me." says the first pokemon

"Comeon, we are ghost and we should be having fun." says second spirit

"Living inside the ghost realm is no fun. You can't do much here, you can't enjoy like a normal pokemon, that's why ghost posses humans to have fun" says first pokemon

"You are so cute and polite. I met other spirit and those are very mean. I mean they boycotted me just because I am not able to scare any human. Sometimes they compare me with other Drifloon and Drifblim and even they compare me with other Dusknoir, they say that I can't even become a ghost if I show mercy like this in front of humans." says second spirit

"Hehehe...you are like me. I don't even like to hurt innocent humans or pokemon." says the first pokemon

"It seems we are the only good ghosts here." says the second ghost," but did they boycotted you as well"

"Nah...I like to stay alone. I think I am not going to become the most scariest ghost" says first ghost

"But who are you" asks second ghost

"People call me , Gengar and what about you" says the Gengar

"Well, I was an adventurous girl and I died fifty years ago in an accident and I ended up here. When I was alive, people called me Aegis. But the question is why didn't we met earlier" asks the second spirit

"I don't know" says the Gengar

"But how would you survive, I mean you need an host to stay alive. " says Gengar

"I know, but I can't find any host. " says second spirit

"Wait here, I have a perfect thing. " says Gengar as it disappeared and appeared after few moments with a sword and shield floating beside it.

"What's that" asks the ghost of aegis

"I didn't had friends and one day I found this floating in our realm. So I used them as playing object. Why don't you try to possess this" asks Gengar

"I don't know, " says the ghost

"Just try, may be you can stay alive in it. We are ghost and we can live in any host, even if it's a non living object" says Gengar

"Let's try," says the ghost as it enters the sword and then sword surrounded in dark aura. For few moment the sword stayed still.

"Hello, are you there" asks Gengar but no answer. Gengar tried multiple times, but it didn't worked. Gengar become sad, and decided to left. Just before it can leave, it noticed the gem in the center of the sword started to glow purple

and the inanimate object started to come alive.

"It worked, I am not sure how but it worked for me" says the spirit of the girl as it started to check the movement of its new body. Doing aerial maneuvers and slicing the things in the air.

"But, it's still didn't gave me a motive to live like a normal life" says the spirit

"Don't worry, you will find your motive. Why don't we find our motive to live which involves not to hurt and kill humans " says Gengar

"Right," says the sword

"Before that, let's give you a name. How about Aegislash. Since your old name is Aegis and now you can slash the things with your new body." says Gengar

"That's sound good. I love this name" says Aegislash

"Did you hear that" asks Gengar as it started to hear the weak voice of some human

In the same realm Ash is struggling hard to find his pokemon. Unable to find his pokemon Ash yelled in anger causing his sound echoed throughout the realm.

"I think those troublesome ghosts brought some human in this realm. " says the Gengar

"Let's go and see what's going on" says the Aegislash

"I have to find those kids, I promised that I won't let anything happen to them" says Ash with a new determination and started to use all his energy to thrust his body forward. After struggling a lot, he was able to move forward.

Arriving at the location, the Gengar and Aegislash, the innocent and good ghost are looking at Ash who is struggling to move in this realm.

"What that human is doing here. " asks Gengar

"It seems those pesky ghosts brought it here. " says Aegislash

"Now, let's help that human. " says Gengar

"But the terrorism of those ghosts won't be stopping anytime soon" says Aegislash

"At least we can teach them a lesson " says Gengar

"Alright, let's help that human" says Gengar as both pokemon floats towards Ash and then grabbed Ash's body by arms

"Who are you and what you are doing" says Ash in weak voice as both pokemon started to take him to the gate of human world.

"I have to find my pokemon and innocent kids who were kidnapped by Drifloon and Drifblim." says Ash which caused the duo of ghost type pokemon stopped in mid.

"There are more kids with him. And what pokemon he is speaking of" asks Aegislash

"He told that Drifloon and Drifblim brought those kids and pokemon here.I know the exact location where we can find those pokemon" says Gengar

Gengar and Aegislash left Ash's hand and Gengar then said telepathically " We will help you, we will find your pokemon and we know where those Drifloon and Drifblim are."

"Wait, you did just used telepathy and why are you helping me" asks Ash

"We are not like those troublesome ghosts. Because of them, we good ghost types are compared to them causing bad reputation among humans" says Aegislash

"Please help me, and I promise that you will be rewarded for your good deeds" says Ash

"We will help you, let's go" says Gengar as the two pokemon took Ash with them and few moments later they arrived at the place where Drifloon and Drifblim surrounded the Ash's pokemon and all the kids they kidnapped so far.

"That's my pokemon and the kidnapped kids," says Ash as he started to feel weaker.

"I can't battle them as this realm is draining all my energy, and not my pokemon can defeat those ghosts pokemon. I will be grateful if you guys can help me out," says Ash with pleading look.

Gengar looked at Aegislash and then nodded at her.

"How should I execute an attack, will I be able to execute an attack" asks Aegislash

"I think, you need to learn the attacks, just focus on your powers and then try to unleash it or watch me and learn" says Gengar as he formed the two black orbs in its palms and fired it at the Drifblim getting its attention.

"Who tried to stop me," asks Drifblim

"Me, Gengar and leave those kids and pokemon" says Gengar

"Oh, you are the same Gengar that don't want to hurt humans. You are too good for this realm" says Drifblim as it ordered Drifloon to attack Gengar.

"Catch me if you can " says Gengar as it started to move in agile manner while sending streaks of ghostly aura that hit Drifloons

"Pikachu, Charizard, Sceptile listen to me. Infernape, Floatzel and Glalie please let me know if you can listen to me" says Ash as he screamed loudly with all of his remaining strength but it didn't worked.

"Are we lost this time, are we not strong enough to deal with the problems like this. Or is it something I lack" thought Ash as he closed his eyes and recalled all the events that took place in the past. He started to recollect the past events. The events of Orange Islands, Unknown, Celebi encounter, meeting up with Latias and Latios , encounter with Jirachi, Deoxys and Lucario.

Ash's eyes shot open and remembered the time when he used the aura to help Lucario in saving the tree of beginning.

" That's it, Lucario once told me.that I have the aura that is similar to Sir Aron, and I can be an aura user if I awaken my aura deposit.I have to try and see if this is possible or not" says Ash to himself as he starts to close his eyes and focuses hard. Ash tried to focus hard by clearing all thoughts.

"Clean your mind, and focus hard. Look for your inner aura and unleash it in the form of energy. Focus !" thought Ash recalling what Lucario told Ash.

Ash stayed still for few minute and he can feel warm energy deposit inside his body. Soon Ash saw a human figure composed of pure energy and it started to walk towards Ash until it started to merge with Ash. The energy engulfed Ash completely and it started to glow. White energy enveloped Ash and it started to expand outwards.

While closing his eyes Ash can see aura of different color. Yellow color indicates that it is Pikachu, orange and red indicates it is Charizard, red and yellow indicates it is Infernape, green aura indicates Sceptile, cyan color indicates Glalie and blue indicates the Floatzel. Ash concentrated hard and his body surrounded in multiple orbs of aura and it started to move towards the aura of his pokemon

Gengar and Aegislash are fighting other ghost types. Drifloon surrounded the Aegislash and Gengar and they are about to attack them.

Just before other Drifblim and Drifloon can attack Gengar and Aegislash two more ghost types pokemon appeared out of nowhere. One is an alpha Dusknoir and wierd looking pokemon.

"Now who you are," asks Gengar

"My name is Dusknoir, and I am Dragapult " says both pokemon

"What are you doing here" asks Aegislash

"We heard the loud noise and we came here to saw what's going on." says Dusknoir

"They caused a lot of trouble for ghost types of this realm. The good pokemon are getting hatered for no cause " says Dragapult

Back with Ash's pokemon they felt something, a strange energy enveloped their body replenish their energy desposit. Ash however drifted back to sleep due to very less energy. Ash's pokemon opened their eyes and found themselve in realm of ghosts and bunch of ghost fighting each other.

"Charizard those kids, Drifblim is eating their soul" says Floatzel

"Let's defeat it, we have to take those kids back to village safe and sound" says Infernape

Floatzel and Infernape used flare blitz and aqua jet to hit the Drifblim, Pikachu used thunderbolt, Glalie used ice beam and Sceptile used petal blizzard

causing great damage to the Drifblim.

"Let's hit Drifblim and Drifloon with every attack we got." says Pikachu as every pokemon unleash their attack at both evil Drifloon and Drifblim. The Drifloon got hit by attack from Pikachu, Charizard and Glalie.On other hand Durknoir used shadow ball rapid fire, Gengar used shadow ball, shadow punch, venoshock. Dragapult used draco meteor, and Aegislash used newly learned shadow ball, night slash.

Ash's pokemon battled for next twenty minutes with all of their power and launched the multiple attacks that combined into massive beam that engulfed the Drifblim and incinerated it. The souls trapped inside its body released and started to wander in the ghost realm. The most of the spirits were good and thus they left in peace, evil spirits however started to surround Ash and his pokemon but thanks to Gengar, alpha Dusknoir, Aegislash and Dragapult those spirits left Ash and his pokemon.

Since their leader Drifblim is defeated, the other Drifloon also dispersed. The spirit of the kids entered back in their body.

"Thanks, we appreciate your help" says Pikachu to ghost types

"No worries , we loved to help you. Now since the spirits of those kids are back in their body, you should leave this place as soon as possible" says Dusknoir

"We will help you get out of this place, " says Gengar and Aegislash as Aegislash and Gengar used their ghostly abilities to take Ash and his pokemon to the human world. Dusknoir and Dragapult help them in bringing kids to.the human world.

Outside the cave Cynthia and Dawn are trying to figure out a way to bring Ash and kids to this world. Inside the cave the portal to the ghost realm opens up once again and from within came out Ash and his pokemon along with other kids.

"Thanks guys, you really are good ghosts. We can't find a way to appreciate you guys. " says Sceptile

"Yeah, you are a life saver" says Charizard

"It would be great if you can join us in our quest. If you could join us we can be the great team and we will get stronger together, but we know you have other important stuff to do. So stay safe guys" says Pikachu

"Do you really want us to be your team member, is it you are saying. I mean do you really want to accept us, " asks Gengar

"Yeah, we can accept you and there is no doubt in it" says Glalie

"But we can't hurt innocent humans and pokemon. " says Aegislash

"Yeah me too, our reputation among humans are not good" says Dusknoir

"We are not asking you to join us because we want to hurt innocent pokemon or human, we are asking because we will get stronger together. My friend Ash and other pokemon friends are good and we also against hurting innocent human and pokemon but there are few times we had to battle evil humans and pokemon to save others or ourselves." says Sceptile

"What you say, should we join them" asks Aegislash

"I am in" says Aegislash

"We always wanted someone to understand the goodness in us. And I think this is the chance" says Gengar as Dusknoir and Dragapult also agreed to it

"We decided to join your team" says all four ghost pokemon


"Pikachu..Charizard...Sceptile..." says Ash with low voice as he opened his eyes.

"Ash, finally you are awake" says Dawn and Akari in happiness

Ash hold his head which is paining a lot and says " What happened, last thing I remember is I was in the ghost realm, and my " says Ash as he realized that his pokemon and other kids were still in the realm

"Relax, everything is fine.All those kids and your pokemon recovered completely. You are in the medical room" says Cynthia

"Thank god," says Ash "But, how long I was unconcious "

"Eight weeks, " says Cynthia

"What eight weeks" asks Ash in shock

"Yup, but your pokemon and those kids recovered just two days ago. " says Dawn

"Thanks, I thought that I lost my friends " says Ash

"But one question, how did we get out of that realm" asks Ash

"Actually four ghost types brought you and your pokemon and those kids back to this world." says Brock

"I never got a chance to thank them, I think I should visit them and thanks them for their help. I realized that not all ghosts are evil" says Ash

"You can thank them.We know where those ghost are" says Cynthia.

Next day, Ash is discharged from hospital. Cyllene and Kamado thanked Ash for his bravery and bringing all kids safe and sound back to the village. Ash then arrives at the place where his pokemon lived.

"Pikachu, Sceptile, Charizard, Infernape,Floatzel and Glalie thanks for your help. " says Ash and congratulated them. All sudden a Gengar who is nine feet tall emerged from the shadows, a sword with shield floated in front of Ash, a ten feet high alpha Dusknoir and an unknown pokemon came in front of Ash.

"Whoah...! Who are you two" asks Ash

"Ash these two are the pokemon, one is Aegislash and another is Dragapult. Both are part ghost type, Aegislash is part steel and Dragapult is part dragon type. Aegislash are from Kalos region and Dragapult is from Galar." says Cynthia

"These pokemon helped you and kids. " says Brock

"Thanks guys, I can't appreciate how it was helpful for us. Just tell me what you want in return except our soul" says Ash with chuckle causing the four pokemon to laugh on Ash's joke.

Gengar stepped forward and then pointed to the other pokemon and then at Ash. Gengar then pointed to itself and other ghost pokemon and then at Ash.

"Are you trying to say that you want to join me" asks Ash decoding what Gengar is saying. Gengar, Dusknoir and Dragapult nodded. Aegislash did aerial maneuvers to show her happiness

"But didn't you want to stay in your realm of ghosts. I mean they are ghost" says Ash at which the four pokemon declined. Gengar then leapt at Ash and gave Ash a deep hug

"You want to stay with me, " says Ash at which the four pokemon nodded. I don't know what I have did for you to decide to stay with me, but in that case, you are welcome. I won't disappoint you " says Ash as he captured the

four pokemon. Ash can't believe on his eyes, he not only captured four ghost types but two of them are alpha and two are foreign pokemon.
