A/N: Hey, everyone, it's good to see you again. I know this isn't the usual story I posted, but I have to post it since it's one of the earliest stories I made before posting Sonic Skyline of The Heavens. Also, the writing can be off sometimes. So, blame me for don't know how to write it.
Anyway, Enjoy The Story
Kanto, Route 2
01.13 PM
In the afternoon, Ash and Pikachu are running through the route, heading to the Pewter City. "I wonder what gym will be there? I'm so excited! Yeah, Pikachu?" "Pika!" Pikachu agrees with him.
While running, Ash saw something by the grass, "Pikachu, there's a Pidgey." He looked at where Ash's pointed and saw a Pidgey on the rock, "Let's catch it." "Pika."
He sneaks to the bird Pokemon and immediately commands Pikachu, "Now Pikachu, use Thunderbolt." "Piikaachuuu." Pidgey got hit by the Thunderbolt, "Go Pokéball." Ash throws his Pokeball, and the ball wiggles, and the catch is a success.
"Nice one Pikachu." "Pika." "Come on, let's go to the Pokemon Center in Pewter City."
Pewter City, Pokémon Center
01.24 PM
Ash and Pikachu run to the Pokemon Center in Pewter City to heal his new catch Pidgey. "Nurse Joy, I like to heal my Pokemon." "Of course. Which Pokemon do you want to heal?" "Pidgey." Ash gave his Pokeball to Nurse Joy, "Your Pokemon will heal. Just wait for a few minutes." Ash nodded in response and went to the back of the Pokemon Center.
In the back of the Pokémon Center, he takes out his Charizard's Pokeball wanting to talk about something, "Hey Charizard, how are you doing?" Charizard nodded in response, "So Charizard, today is your first gym battle. So I would like to use you as backup, got it?"
Charizard doesn't like what Ash told him, "Look, I know you want to battle, but I would lose the League if I always pick you. So I would like to give everyone a chance, all right?" Charizard is okay with the reason.
Ash was about to say something to Charizard but was interrupted by a Pokemon Center alarm telling him that his Pokemon had already healed. "Charizard return will talk again soon." Ash returned Charizard to his Pokeball.
"Your Pidgey is healed." Nurse Joy handed out Pidgey's Pokeball, "Thank you, Nurse Joy." Once outside, he takes out Pidgey's Pokeball, "Come out, Pidgey." Pidgey appeared in front of Ash and looked at him, "Nice to meet you, Pidgey, I'm Ash, and this is my partner Pikachu," "Pika."
Pidgey stares angrily at Pikachu after what he did, "Pika." Pikachu moves back slowly since he did attack him, "Now, Pidgey, I want you to calm down and listen to me. We have a gym battle today. So, I would like you to watch the battle."
Pidgey agreed with Ash's choice but was still mad at Pikachu, "Come on, let's go to the Gym." Pidgey flies above Ash while Pikachu follows Ash on foot.
Pewter City, Pewter Gym
01.37 PM
Once they arrived, Ash saw it was a building with two giant wooden doors in front of him, "Hello, anyone there." "Come on in."
Ash opened the door and saw the room had no lights on. Suddenly a spotlight turns on and points at someone, "Are you the gym leader?" Ash asked, "I am." He said confidently.
He turned around, revealing his clothing. He wore a green vest with four large pockets on the front. He wore this over an orange short-sleeved shirt, brown pants, and blue and white sneakers.
On either side of his belt, which was black with a gold rectangular buckle and brown belt pockets. "I'm Brock, the gym leader of Pewter City, and I specialize in rock type." "Good, I'm Ash Ketchum. I like to challenge you for a gym battle." Brock smiles confidently at the challenger Ash's response.
"So let's get the gym battle started, Forrest, would you mind?" A boy named Forrest came out and went to the center of the battlefield, "The battle between Gym Leader Brock and challenger Ash will begin. The rules of this battle are the challenger can only use two Pokemon in the battle."
Brock sent out his Pokeball and was ready to throw, "Geodude, show them what you made of!" Brock's first Pokemon is a Geodude, "So a Geodude, huh? I haven't seen that Pokemon for a long time. Pikachu, let's go." Pikachu quickly went to the battlefield, "Pidgey, you better watch. All right?" "Pidgey." Pidgey gives a response at Ash's Shoulder.
"Now, let the battle begin."
Ash vs. Brock
"Pikachu, use Quick Attack." Pikachu quickly charges at Geodude. Brock had a plan for dodge, "Geodude, use Dig." Geodude digs into the underground at the battlefield, "Pikachu watch yourself! Geodude can come out anywhere."
Brock is ready to command Geodude for the attack, "Now." Geodude comes out and uppercuts Pikachu, "Quick, Pikachu! Electro Ball." "It's no use." The electro ball got a hit, but it didn't hurt him.
"It didn't work?" "Of course, Geodude is a Ground Type. So, electric moves won't work on him now! Use Tackle." Geodude is ready to punch Pikachu, but Ash quickly commands Pikachu, "Use Quick Attack."
Geodude got a hit but got little, but that's when Ash uses another Pikachu move, "Now, Iron Tail." "What?" Brock didn't expect Pikachu to use a Steel Type move. He hit Geodude and pushed him back, "Now, Iron Tail full force." "Quick! Geodude, Dig." But Geodude was too late for dodge and got a hit at Iron Tail full power. The result of the impact left Geodude faint.
"Geodude fainted, and the winner is Pikachu." "Nice one Pikachu." Pikachu was happy about the win, and Pidgey was impressed by the battle, "All right, Geodude. Take a good rest." He returned Geodude to his Pokéball, "Now time for you to meet my next Pokemon."
Brock sent out his next Pokemon, it was big, and Ash had seen this before, "An Onix?!" "That's right. My final Pokemon is Onix. Unless you had a powerful Pokemon, you would win this." "Oh, I have one, all right." "Is it a Pidgey?" Brock asked, "No, of course not." Brock was interested in this.
Pikachu returns to Ash since he knows what is Ash going to use, "Ready? I choose you." Ash sent out his second Pokemon, Charizard. "Amazing. I'm guessing that's your starter?" "Nope, Pikachu is my starter." Brock didn't expect a Pikachu is Ash's starter. "Onix, Tackle." "Charizard, Use Slash." Charizard dodged the Onix attack and got a direct hit on Onix.
"Onix, you all right?" Onix was critically weakened by the hit but still battling, 'That was impressive, but I will win.' "Onix use Bide." Onix wraps his tail around Charizard, but Ash smile at this, "Charizard, Seismic Toss." "What?!" Charizard grabs hold of Onix's tail, flies up, and throws it to the ground. Onix is still standing but hasn't got enough energy to stand up normally, "Now finish it off with Flamethrower." Charizard finishes it with his Special Attack.
Forrest quickly looks closer at Onix, and he's got knocked out, "Onix fainted, and the winner is Charizard. Then that means challenger Ash is the winner." "Nice one Charizard." "Pika." Charizard shoots Flamethrower at Ash's face, "T-thank you."
Winner: Ash
"You did a good job, Onix. Take a good rest." Brock returned Onix to his Pokéball. "Well done, Ash. It looks like you won the battle." He smiled at Ash's victory, "Hehe." "I present you the Boulder Badge." He hands out Boulder Badge to him, "Yes, I got the Boulder Badge."
He puts it in his jacket with his other Gym Badge, "So Ash, what are you going to do now?" "I'll be going to the next gym." "And do you know where it is?" "Uuuuuhhh." Brock sighed at Ash's response, "Don't worry, I helped you guide to the gym." Ash was surprised at this, "You sure? But what about the gym?" "Don't worry. My brother can take over as my place." Ash doesn't want Brock to leave, but he accepts it since he told his reason. "All right, you can come."
"Good, I'll go pack my stuff." Brock went back inside to take important stuff, "Forrest, I'll leave the gym to father. All right?" Forrest nodded, "See you later." Ash, Brock, and Pikachu leave Pewter City as they headed to the next gym.
Kanto, Pewter Forest
01.37 PM
"So Ash, what's the reason to become a Pokemon Trainer?" "I become a Pokemon Trainer. So that I can reach my dream to become a Pokemon Master." "Pika." Brock smiled at the answer, "Eeeeh. So, that's your dream, huh?" "What about you, Brock?"
Brock was thinking about the days when he was a kid, "My dream used to be a Pokemon Breeder, but I can't become one since someone had to take care of the gym. So, I train myself and Forrest to become Gym Leaders if my father can't do it."
"I see." "Did you travel with someone else by any chance?" Brock was curious, "Yea, I had. Their names are Verity and Sorrel. Both of them are from the Sinnoh Region. While Verity had a dream to become a great trainer, Sorrel is studying Legendary Pokemon in the world." Brock was amazed that Ash had friends like that, "So why did you three split up?" Ash took out his very precious item in his jacket, "This."
Brock was surprised at what he saw, "R-Rainbow Wing?!" "Yea, Ho-Oh gave this to me, and this symbolizes that I'm the Rainbow Hero, according to the legend. I wanted to meet Ho-Oh and challenge him, but another trainer also wants to meet Ho-Oh." "And who is this trainer?" He looked up, remembering his name, "His name was Cross. He did see Ho-Oh in the sky but didn't get the Rainbow Wing. So he tries to take the Rainbow Wing by force by battling me."
Brock didn't expect a trainer to meet Ash like that, "We fought at the Mount Tensei with our strongest Pokemon, and I won. But Cross stole the Rainbow Wing and put it on the pedestal. But instead of summoning Ho-Oh, it summoned Marshadow, a Pokemon that can travel between shadows.
He took the Rainbow Wing and fought Cross by Hypnotizing the Pokemon around him and Cross's. I tried to stop him, but I was hurting bad. Charizard was busy fighting other Pokemon, so the only choice I have to protect Pikachu is to put him in his Pokeball."
Brock was shocked by Ash's story that he wanted to ask about something gruesome, "Did you die?" Ash and Pikachu were unsure about that. But Ash decides to tell him the answer, "Yes, I died. But I was revived by Ho-Oh. After that fight, Ho-Oh came to Mount Tensei, I fought him, but I lost." Brock was satisfied with what happened to Ash afterward. "Brock, can you keep this a secret?" "Of course, anything for a friend."
Unknown to them Marshadow, the same one that Ash had met, had followed Ash for a while. He can see that Ash trusts Brock as a friend. So he keeps following Ash to keep tabs on him.
A/N: I know I place this story off in the Movie timeline. But my story, my rules. And if anyone wondering when Marshadow is joining Ash's team, it's going to be a while. I will post who's Pokémon is on their team on my profile, and as for clothes they're wearing, that one would be later.
