Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Pokemon Kids! Last time, our little friends have visited God in their dreams and learned of their futures. In this chapter, they will meet some new friends... from a whole different universe, as the chapter might have given away. That's right. This chapter in addition to Noah was written by ChipmunkOfOz, so thank him for the idea. Now let's get this shown on the road!
Narrator: Our heroes' journey in the Shlomlite Region continues as they happily thought about the plans God gave them for their lives. They were happy that they were good friends. But today, their world is about to turn upside-down.
Ash: Boy, I'm glad that we got to travel this region together as friends. Right, Pikachu?
Pikachu: You said it! I'm glad you're my best friend.
Serena: Ash?
Ash: Yeah?
Serena: I'm happy that you're my special friend.
Ash: Me too.
Ash blushed upon saying it. Pikachu couldn't help but notice it.
Daisy: Hmm… I wonder who we're gonna meet next.
Sonny: From what I've seen, only the Lord knows for sure.
Suddenly, they heard screaming and it was coming from the sky.
Tabitha: What on earth is that?
Brock: (looks up) I can't tell.
It looked like a little blue ball filled with quills.
Chespin: Whoa!
The blue ball uncurled itself and it was wearing red shoes. It was a little creature with green eyes.
Ash: Hey little fella, are you okay?
Pikachu looked all around the strange creature.
Pikachu: It looks like he's wearing gloves and shoes. He sure doesn't look like a Pokémon.
Daisy took a look at the creature.
Daisy: I'm not sure it even is a Pokémon.
Soon enough, the creature was waking up. He then looked up to see faces looking down at him.
Blue Creature: Who are you?! Where am I?!
Ash: Whoa, whoa! Take it easy, fella.
Serena: We're not gonna hurt you.
Daisy: We just wanna help you… If we can.
Blue Creature: Well… Okay. My name is Sonic. I'm a hedgehog.
Ash: Nice to meet ya, Sonic. I'm Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town.
Serena: I'm Serena from Vaniville Town.
Pikachu: I'm Ash's pal, Pikachu.
Fennekin: And I'm Serena's friend, Fennekin.
Brock: I'm Brock from Pewter City.
Tabitha: I'm Tabitha Joy from my family's Hospital Inn here in the Shlomlite Region.
One by one, all the kids and their Pokémon had introduced themselves to the blue hedgehog.
Sonic: Nice to meet ya all.
Sophocles: (looks around Sonic) Where did you come from?
Sonic: I come from Mobius. My friends and I live in Knothole Village with Sally's nanny, Rosie.
Togedemaru: Mobius?
Kiawe's Charmander: Knothole Village?
Scorbunny: Where's that?
Then, April realized something about Sonic.
April: Are you from an alternate world?
Sonic: Actually, yes. Cause I sure never heard of the places you guys are from.
Ash: You're on Planet Earth.
Gary: Are there others like you?
Sonic: Well, Sally Acorn is a chipmunk. Rotor is a walrus. Tails is a fox. Bunnie is a rabbit. And Antoine is a coyote.
Gary: (to himself) Ask a silly question, get a silly answer.
Sonic looked at all the Pokémon around the kids. He couldn't help but notice how Tabitha's Chespin, Mallow's Shaymin, and Sophocles's Togedemaru are almost like hedgehogs like him.
Chespin: Why don'cha take a picture? It'll last longer.
Togedemaru: Chespin, don't be rude.
Sonic: No, it's alright.
Ash: Daisy, what're we gonna do with him?
Gary: Yeah, we can't just leave him out here alone, can we?
Pikachu: They're right. He's practically a stranger in a whole different world.
April: (to herself) That must've been Palkia.
Dawn: What'd you say, April?
April: It was Palkia's doing.
Dawn: Palkia?
Tabitha: I remember reading about it. Palkia is one of the first Pokémon God created after He created Arceus.
Brock: That's right. Palkia is known as the Spatial Pokémon, meaning it can manipulate space.
Ash: Maybe Palkia created a gate from Sonic's world to our world.
Sonic: Whoa…
April took out her Rotom Phone and showed the Pokedex entry for Palkia.
Sonic: So you're saying this creature was the one who brought me here?
April: Exactly.
Sonic: This is heavy.
Sophocles: (confused) What does weight have to do with anything?
Togedemaru giggled at this.
Lillie: So now we have an idea of how Sonic got here. But what do we do now?
Ash: I guess we have to bring him back home to Mobius.
Serena: But Ash, we don't even know how to get to Sonic's world.
Fennekin: Serena's right. It's not like we can exactly find Palkia and ask it to open a portal to another dimension on a whim.
Pikachu: Not to mention we don't even know what Mobius is like. Offtopic I know, but you get my point.
Ash hated to admit it, but his friends had a good point.
Sonic: Don't worry, everyone. I'm a kid just like you.
Goh: You are?
Sonic: Sure. I'm 5 years old.
Chloe: No kidding.
Tracey: Not to interrupt, but we should be coming up to a town soon.
Ash: What's the name of the town, Brock?
Brock: Let me see. (looks up the Town Map) Looks like we'll be coming up to Moonbeam City.
Tabitha: Let's discuss what to do with Sonic when we get to Moonbeam City.
Serena: Alright, let's go.
And so, the kids, their Pokémon, their babysitters, and their new hedgehog friend headed for Moonbeam City.
Ash: There it is!
Along the way, they saw a teenage boy. He had red hair, blue eyes, glasses, and wore khaki shorts, and red and green boots.
Teenage Boy: (notices them) Oh, hey. Welcome to Moonbeam City. My name is Jacob McKnight.
Pikachu: Hi, Jacob.
Soon, Ash and the others had introduced themselves to him.
Jacob: Wow. There's a lot of you, aren't there?
Donzelle: Uh-huh.
Jacob: So, what brings you all here?
Ash: We're on a journey and we met this little hedgehog. His name is Sonic. We're trying to get him back home to Mobius.
Sonic: Hiya.
Jacob: (looks around) Maybe you should come with me. My grandparents' farm is close by. Might be better not to draw too much attention here.
Lana: Alright, let's go.
So, Jacob led the way to his family farm. They could see many Pokémon roaming around.
Brock: Whoa… Look at them all.
Tabitha: This is amazing.
The farm had Ponyta and Rapidash, both regular and Galarian forms, along with Mudbray, Mudsdale, Tauros, Miltank, Rhyhorn, Mareep, Skiddo, Gogoat, Wooloo, Dubwool, and Bouffalant.
Kiawe: It almost looks like my family's farm back on Akala Island.
Kiawe's Charmander: Only it's much bigger.
Chloe then noticed the farmhouse. She saw that part of it seemed a lot bigger than the rest.
Chloe: Eevee, look at this!
Eevee: Whoa. Is it my imagination or is part of the house bigger than the rest?
Scorbunny: I see it, too.
Jacob: Well, there's a reason behind it.
Voice: Big brother!
Everyone looked and saw a little girl with long flowing auburn hair, a pink dress with no shoes running up to him. The girl giggled as she gave Jacob a big hug. Coming up to the girl was a Long Nose Pokémon called Phanpy.
Jacob: (hugs back) Hey, Mia. Bet you're glad that I'm back, huh?
Mia: Mm-hmm.
Jacob: Mia, this is Ash Ketchum and his friends.
Ash: Hi.
Serena: Hello.
Everyone else greeted her.
Mia: Hi there. Welcome to our family farm.
Suddenly, what seemed to be a ball of light flew around them.
Sophocles: What's that?!
Voice: (giggles, English accent) What's the matter? Never seen a fairy before?
Upon closer inspection, they saw the ball of light was a small winged humanoid figure. She had lavender hair with a long braid that went down to her knees, a red top with a red leaf-like skirt, and a blue hairband with a red flower on top.
Lillie: Oh… My… Gosh. It's a fairy!
Gladion: But that's impossible. Fairies don't…
Lillie: Don't say that, Gladion! Peter Pan said that if you say you don't believe in fairies, they fall dead.
Jacob, Mia, and the fairy chuckled at this.
Jacob: (chuckles) Peter Pan is just a story.
Fairy: Yeah. Saying such things won't affect me in any way. I'm Deirdre by the way. (curtsies)
Chloe: You are so cute! (squeals)
Deirdre blushed upon hearing that. Suddenly something came out of the farmhouse. Something big.
Axew: Iris, look!
It appeared to be a giant girl. She had blue hair in two long pigtails, a sleeveless yellow dress, and no shoes on her feet. From what the others could tell, she was close to 30 ft. tall. And she was coming right toward them.
Iris: Oh, my gosh! It's a giant!
Cilan: There's no way this is possible!
Clemont: It defies science!
Giant girl: (shyly) Oh, I'm sorry. Did I scare you all? (pause) Never mind, I'll go back inside.
Jacob: It's okay, Aurora.
Mia: (smiles) They're all just surprised to see you. Right, guys?
Ash: Yeah, it doesn't matter what you look like. What matters is how you feel on the inside.
Aurora: (blushes) Oh, thank you. Um… I'm Aurora.
Everyone was surprised. This girl was so big, yet her voice seemed almost like a whisper.
Jacob: Aurora's kind of shy around new people.
Serena: Oh, okay.
May: I don't get it. Why do you have a giant and a fairy living with you?
Jacob: Perhaps it's best to sit down.
Everyone sat down in a circle as Jacob began his story.
Jacob: My family used to live in Unova. Specifically, Aspertia City. My late mother and I first met Deirdre here while she was on a family vacation from the Galar region. During that time, we met Aurora hiding in the woods near the farm. At first, she was afraid of us, but when we got to know her, she was more open to us.
Deirdre: You see, Aurora's height was due to a growth potion.
Mallow: Wow…
Jacob: Her parents passed away sometime after her growth, and the people in her town blamed her for it. So she ran away.
Lillie: Aww… That's so sad.
Gladion: That's just not right. Judging someone just because of their size.
Jacob: So my mother and I decided to adopt her. And some time afterward, we moved out here. We heard there'd be more room for Aurora here, and hopefully, no one would judge her because of her size.
Deirdre: And I chose to stay with the McKnights to help make Aurora's life a bit more manageable.
Tracey: Manageable?
Dawn: How so?
Deirdre landed on the ground and touched a flower with her hand. A magical aura came from her hands and the flower bloomed.
Mia: Fairies are capable of various forms of magic.
Misty: Really?
Aurora: Oh, yes. Deirdre uses her magic to help me with my clothes and to help make my meals grow bigger.
Sophocles: She wouldn't eat us… Would she?
Mia: Don't say such things about my big sister! She's a vegetarian! There's no way she'd wanna eat people like us.
Jacob: Mia, calm down. You'll have to excuse Mia. She's got a form of autism.
Lillie: Autism?
Gladion: I think I heard about it from mother. It's a learning disability.
Jacob: Yes. And sometimes, it makes her prone to outbursts like that.
Mia: I'm sorry. It's just… I don't like people judging Aurora just because she's bigger than us.
Serena: It's okay, we understand.
Ash: Where's your mom? She sounds like a kind person.
Jacob: She's… Dead. (pause) She died after giving birth to Mia.
Ash: Oh… I'm sorry to hear that.
Jacob: Thanks. (pause) But grandpa taught me to believe that everything that happens is just part of God's plan.
Dawn: So you're Christians?
Jacob: Methodists, actually. But yes.
Just then, Jacob's grandparents came along.
Grandma: Well, who do we have here?
Grandpa: Looks like some young travelers.
Jacob: Everyone, these are our grandparents. Grandma Amelia, and Grandpa Rolfe.
Grandma: Welcome to our farm, dears.
Grandpa: What brings you young'uns around these parts?
Goh: We're on a journey, but then Sonic came along. We're trying to get him back home to Mobius.
Sonic: Hi.
Ash: Y'know, it just occurred to me, Sonic. We never asked you what your world is like.
Sonic: Hold on, I have a photo of that in my backpack. (digs around) Ah… There it is. See for yourself.
He showed them the photo. It looks a little like Earth.
Ash: It looks just like Earth.
Serena: Amazing. Are there any humans where you're from?
Sonic: Well, there's an evil doctor named Robotnik, but I called him Robuttnik.
Mia: That's kinda rude.
Sonic: Hey, he's the one who turned my people into robots.
Pikachu: That's pure evil, man.
May: Why would he do that?
Dawn: Yeah, what's he trying to prove?
Sonic: To be the new ruler of Mobius.
Jacob: Sounds like your world's in quite a predicament.
Sonic: Yeah, but we're gonna stop Robotnik someday.
Deirdre: Well, to do that, we need to get you home.
Just then, another gate of Palkia opened up. It shows a small village in a forest.
Sonic: Whoa! It's Knothole and I can see Sally and the others.
Mia: Oh wow!
Jacob: Inconceivable. A portal to another world.
Deirdre: This is definitely Palkia's work.
Suddenly, Sally and her friends jumped through the gate into the Pokémon World.
Aurora: (gasps) Oh my goodness. More cute little guys.
Aurora got down on all fours to get a closer look at them all.
Aurora: (excitedly) Are you all Sonic's friends? Hmm?
Tails: (steps back) Whoa!
Sally: Who are you?!
Sonic: Hey, she's cool, guys. Sure, she's big, but Aurora's harmless.
Antoine could be seen cowering behind Bunnie in fear.
Jacob: (to Ash) Yeah, I forgot to tell ya. Aurora's very much into animals besides Pokémon. When she sees them, she goes into this state.
Deirdre: Yeah, you could say that when around animals or Pokémon, Aurora comes right out of her shell.
Bunnie: Antoine, stop hidin' behind me, sugah. (pulls the coyote out from behind her)
Antoine: Sahrry ahbout zat.
Rotor: So, where are we, Sonic?
Tails: Yeah, how'd we get here?
Then, another gate of Palkia opened up. This time, it showed four kids. There were two boys and two girls. One of the girls was in a wheelchair.
Grandma: Land sakes, more visitors.
Sonic: I think they're from a different world like us.
Girl in Wheelchair: W-Where are we?
Boy 1: I-I don't know. (looks around)
Girl 2: (notices the group of kids) Whoa, look!
Boy 2: Look at all these kids! And those creatures.
Jacob: I believe introductions are in order here.
Mia: I'm afraid you're right.
Sonic introduced his friends from his world.
Sonic: (to Ash and co.) These are the friends I told you about earlier. Sally, Tails, Bunnie, Rotor, and Antoine.
Tails: Hi, there.
Sally: Hello.
Bunnie: Nice to meet y'all.
Rotor: Hi.
Antoine: Bonjour.
After that, the four kids introduced themselves.
Boy 1: I'm Christopher Thorndyke. But everyone calls me Chris.
Girl in Wheelchair: I'm Helen.
Girl 2: I'm Frances.
Boy 2: And my name's Danny.
Sonic: Hi there.
Helen: (gasps) Oh wow. Look at all these creatures. They're so cute. (smiles)
Chris: They sure are.
Before long, everyone had introduced themselves and given the full history of how the McKnights came to be in the Shlomlite Region.
Danny: Wow! That's awesome.
Jacob: Hmm. Why would the Spatial Pokémon Palkia bring these people from two different dimensions to our world all willy-nilly?
Deirdre: You're right. Just doesn't make sense.
Chris: Well, Little Sonic, I have a friend named Sonic.
Sonic: You do?
Chris: Mm-hmm.
Tails: Does he have a best friend like me?
Chris: Actually, yes. His name is Tails, too.
Bunnie: Is there a cute li'l bunny rabbit like me?
Helen: Well, yes… And no.
Bunnie: Huh?
Frances: What she means is "yes", there's a rabbit. And "no", her name isn't Bunnie. It's Cream. And she has a Chao named Cheese.
Bunnie: Aw, well, that's okay.
Rotor: A Chao? What's that?
Danny: Well… Kinda hard to describe.
Frances: There's also a girl hedgehog named Amy Rose, and an echidna named Knuckles.
Sonic: Well, (clears his throat) what are you and our buddies doing here, Sal?
Sally: Nicole told me that Dr. Robotnik is coming to this world to destroy a town.
Lana: Who's Nicole? (looks around) Is she an animal like you guys?
Sally: Yes, she's also my computer.
Sophocles: (confused) Say what?
Sally: She's a lynx.
Sophocles: How can you be a lynx and a computer at the same time?
Clemont: Is this Nicole a cyborg or something?
Sally: No, she's a digitized animal. Here, I'll show you. (brings out Nicole) Hey Nicole, come and meet my new friends.
Nicole: (digitized voice) Hello. I am Nicole.
Clemont and Sophocles: Whoa…
Sophocles: Can I see how she works?
Mallow: Can we get back to the topic at hand here, please?
Ash: Yeah, some madman wants to come into our world.
Suddenly, there was some evil laughter. But not just one, four evil waves of laughter.
Serena: Uh-oh.
Chloe: I think we're in trouble.
Female Voice: Prepare for trouble, your freaky pal is blue.
Male Voice: Make it double, it's indeed true.
Ash: Oh, no. It's the Stupid Stooges again.
Female: To protect the world from devastation.
Male: To unite all peoples within our nation.
Female: To denounce the evils of truth and love.
Male: To extend our reach to the stars above.
Female: Jessie.
Male: James.
Jessie: Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!
James: Surrender now, or prepare to fight!
Meowth: Meowth, dat's right!
Misty: Great, it's the old lady again.
Jessie: (growls) Will you stop calling me THAT?!
Meowth: Sometimes dat's used as a toim o' respect.
Jessie: (strangles Meowth) Respect this!
Jacob: (steps forward) What. Are. You. Vandals. Doing. On. Our. LAND?!
Jacob's shout echoed throughout the farm. This surprised Ash and the others, but not the other McKnights. Regardless, it was enough to snap Jessie out of her outburst.
Jessie: We're here by orders from Robotnik!
James: We just met him to destroy that town over there! (points to Moonbeam City)
Mia: (scared) Oh no…
Ash: You three stooges are hardly a threat to us.
Voice: We'll see about that!
Serena: Who said that?
Voice: Me! Dr. Robotnik!
Everyone looked up and saw him.
Sonic: Robuttnik. I should've known.
Sally: What do you want?!
Dr. Robotnik: To destroy Moonbeam City! (cackles)
At this point, Jacob took a different persona as he put on a Mega Glove and a green Z-Power Ring with a Dragonium Z in it.
Jacob: You'll have to go through me. (brings out various Poké Balls) My friends, onward to battle!
One by one, Pokémon of the Dragon egg group appeared - A Grovyle, a Flygon, a Garchomp with a Mega Stone, a Druddigon, a Hydreigon, and finally a great big Charizard with a scar above his right eye.
Grovyle: Grovyle!
Flygon: Flygon!
Garchomp: Gar!
Druddigon: Dru!
Hydreigon: Hydrei!
Charizard: (roars)
Deirdre, upon seeing Jacob's Pokémon coming out, brought out other Poké Balls with her magic.
Deirdre: Jacob, I've got your other Poké Balls. Catch!
Jacob managed to catch the other Poké Balls as Deirdre used her magic to toss them to him. Other Dragon-egg group Pokemon appeared - a Bagon, an Axew, a Heliolisk, a Turtonator, a Totem-sized Kommo-o, a Flapple, an Appletun, and a Duraludon.
Bagon: Bay-bay!
Axew: Axew-ew!
Heliolisk: Heli!
Turtonator: Tur!
Kommo-o: Kommo!
Flapple: Flap-Flap!
Appletun: Appletun!
Duraludon: Dur!
Knowing that her big adopted brother may need extra help, Aurora pulled out regular-sized Poké Balls from her giant pocket.
Aurora: My friends, unite!
Tossing her Poke Balls in the air, four more Pokémon appeared. First, an Alolan Exeggutor, a Steelix, a shiny Onix, and a Gyarados.
Alolan Exeggutor: Exeggutor!
Steelix: (roars)
Onix: (roars)
Gyarados: (screeches)
Ash, Serena, and all the other kids were amazed by all the Pokémon that just appeared on the scene.
Iris: Whoa… So many Dragon types and others.
Kiawe: A giant Charizard and a Turtonator? (amazed) Wow… And is he wearing a Z-Power Ring?
Misty: (looks at Aurora) She has a Gyarados?
Brock: And a Steelix and a shiny Onix?
Mallow: And an Alolan Exeggutor?
Mia: Amazing, huh? (giggles)
Both Ash and Kiawe's Charmanders were amazed at seeing such a big Charizard. The sheer number of Pokémon that just appeared seemed to make the three members of Team Rocket feel uneasy.
James: (to Jessie and Meowth) I don't know about you guys, but that kid who just brought out all those Pokémon seems to be on a whole different level.
Meowth: Yeah.
Jessie: (trembles) How is that even possible?
The only villain who didn't seem to be scared was Robotnik.
Dr. Robotnik: Well, Sonic. It seems you've got quite an army here, don't you?
Sonic: (stands beside Jacob) You said it, buster. Are you guys ready?
Jacob: You sure you wanna fight? I mean, you're just a kid.
Sonic: Oh, trust me. My friends and I are no ordinary kids.
Sally: You said it, Sonic!
Jacob: Hmm… (pause) Alright. I'll trust you. Aurora, keep Mia, Deirdre, and the kids safe.
Aurora: I'll do my best.
Sonic: Let's juice!
Jacob's Dragon-typed Pokémon team prepared themselves for battle.
Jacob: Let's get this battle party started! Smaug, Flamethrower!
The Charizard, who was named Smaug, unleashed a powerful Flamethrower attack.
Ash: Pikachu, use Quick Attack!
Pikachu: You got it!
The McKnight family gasped upon seeing Ash and Pikachu trying to get involved in the battle.
Grandpa: Is that lad crazy?
Aurora: He and his little Pikachu could get hurt.
Jacob saw Pikachu using Quick Attack on the villains. He then turned to Ash.
Jacob: Ash, stay out of this. A Pokemon Battle's no place for a kid your age.
Ash: But I've got experience in dealing with those stupid stooges. Charmander, use Ember!
Charmander: Em…
Suddenly, Smaug waved an arm towards Charmander, who looked up.
Smaug: (shakes head, growling)
Jessie: Meowth, translation?
James: What's he saying?
Meowth: Dat big Charizard's sayin' dat Charmander should let da pros handle us cretins. (realizes) Hey, dat big lizard wit' wings just insulted us!
James: And here he comes! (screams)
Smaug flew right towards them with his claws glowing green.
Jacob: Dragon Claw!
Smaug growled as he slashed forth at the villains, causing an explosion.
Jessie: No fair! We haven't even started yet!
James: And we didn't even bring out our Pokémon!
Meowth: Dat Charizard's way overpowered!
Team Rocket: Team Rocket's blasting off again!
Dr. Robotnik: Hmph. I don't need their help anyway.
Ash: Wow! Your Charizard's really strong, Jacob.
Jacob: Well, Smaug's been my partner for a long time.
Pikachu: Smaug. That's his name?
Jacob: We nickname all our Pokémon here on the farm.
Sonic: Excuse me, guys! We have to stop Robuttnik from destroying Moonbeam City!
Jacob: Right. (to Ash) You want in, kid?
Ash: (smirks) Absolutely. How bout you, Pikachu and Charmander?
Pikachu: This Pokémon's got game!
Ash's Charmander: Me too!
Smaug: (smirks, growls a bit before gesturing Charmander to climb onto this head)
Ash's Charmander: Okay, sir. (jumps up onto Smaug's back and head)
Dr. Robotnik: (chuckles evilly) I don't care how many friends you have, Hedgehog. You'll never stop me!
Sonic: Famous last words, Robuttnik!
Female Voice: Simipour, use Hydro Pump!
A blast of water hit Dr. Robotnik from behind. Jacob looked and saw a familiar face - a girl she knew. She had her hair in a ponytail, wearing denim shorts, a light blue t-shirt, and no shoes on her feet. Next to her was a Geyser Pokemon, Simipour.
Jacob: (smirks) Nice of you to drop by, Sally.
Sally: (winks) You know it!
Simipour: Pour!
Sonic: Cool! The more, the merrier.
Serena: (races in) If she's joining in, then so am I. Fennekin, use Ember!
Fennekin: I'm on it! EMBER!
Sally: Simipour, Hydro Pump once more!
Simipour: Simipour! (fires Hydro Pump)
Ash: Pikachu, Thunderbolt! And Charmander, Ember!
Jacob: (performed some synchronized moves) Smaug, Devastating Drake!
Each of the Pokémon's attacks, including Smaug's Z-Move, fired on Dr. Robotnik.
Dr. Robotnik: Nice shot. But what about this?! (pushed a button) The Lazer Blaster 2000.
Jacob: (raises an eyebrow) Seriously?
Ash: Worst. Name. Ever.
Clemont: I'm all for inventions, but I'm sure I could come up with a better name than that.
Dr. Robotnik: You dare insult my genius?!
Serena: Anyway, we won't let you hurt everyone in this town!
Tails: Hey, Sonic! (brings out a gold ring) Catch!
Tails tosses the gold ring to Sonic. The blue hedgehog smirks and catches the ring.
Sonic: Thanks!
The others watched what happened next.
Sonic: Up, over, and GONE!
Pikachu: What's going on?
Tails: He's about to spin out!
They watched as Sonic seemed to turn into a blur.
Ash: Awesome!
Helen: You see that, Chris?
Chris: Just like our Sonic back home.
Dr. Robotnik: Oh no.
Within moments, Robotnik's invention is destroyed.
Jacob: Well, I'm impressed.
Smaug nodded in agreement. Meanwhile, Dr. Robotnik was covered in ashes.
Dr. Robotnik: My Lazer Blaster 2000. Ruined!
Sonic: Ready, Sal?
Sally A.: Ready! Nicole, when does the mini bomb go off?
Nicole: In about thirty seconds.
Sally A.: Good.
Mia: (scared) What's a mini bomb?
Bunnie: You'll see, honey child. It's a tiny bomb that can explode real big!
As the evil doctor floated off back to Robotropolis, he didn't know that Sonic placed the mini bomb on the side of his flying machine. Sonic's friends watched as the timer clocked how much time was left.
Sonic: Sally, how many seconds are there?
Sally A.: Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven. Six. Five. Four. Three. Two. One. Zero.
As the mini bomb made it to its' final number, it exploded on the Doctor's machine! Everyone covered their eyes from the brightness of the explosion.
Sally: (comes up to Jacob) Whoa. That was a big bang, huh?
Jacob: I'll say. Is that it, though?
Ash: Yeah, what happens now?
Sonic: That mad doctor'll be back home.
Sally: (to Jacob) You're gonna have to catch me up on this whole thing.
Jacob: Right. Everyone, this is my friend, Sally Pisen. Sally, this is everyone.
Everyone introduced themselves to Sally and explained the situation Sonic, his friends, and the four kids were in.
Sally: Hmm. Sounds like Palkia is behind you guys being in our world.
Dawn: That's right.
Tails: Well, if this Palkia brought us here, do you think it could bring us home again?
Dawn: Of course, it can.
Aurora: But how? It's not like we could just find it and…
Suddenly, a bright light shone around them. It was none other than Jesus!
Ash and Serena: Jesus!
Jacob: (awed) Great… Scott!
Sally: Oh my gosh.
Helen: Chris, are you seeing what I'm seeing?
Chris: Yeah.
Sonic: Someone wanna clue us in?
Jesus merely smiled as he looked at the strangers from other worlds.
Jesus: Hello, Sonic. Sally. Tails. Bunnie. Rotor. Antoine. Chris. Helen. Frances. Danny.
Frances: (gasps) He knows our names.
Bunnie: Whoa. How does he know who we are?
Jesus: Because God, My Father, is in every universe.
Sonic: Wow! You're awesome.
Tails: Sir, do you know of this Pokémon called Palkia that they're talking about?
Jesus: As a matter of fact, I do.
Looking in one direction, Jesus could see the Spatial Pokémon itself appear through a portal and land right beside them.
April: Palkia…
Chris: Jesus… Um, do you know why Palkia had us come here from our worlds?
Jesus: Simple, Chris. Palkia brought Sonic, his friends, and your children to stop the evil Dr. Robotnik and save Moonbeam City. Ash?
Ash: Yes, Jesus?
Jesus: I wanted to say that I'm proud of you for being a good friend to Sonic and his friends.
Ash: Well, Sonic needed our help. What else could I have done?
Jesus: By telling him about me and my life while you were traveling to this city. I also have the perfect verse for you from the Book of Proverbs. You remember the first time I appeared when you started this journey. Do you?
Ash: (realized) Oh yeah! I remember that, you gave a Proverb to Pikachu.
Jesus: (nods) That's right. In the scripture, it says, "A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."
Ash: That's Proverbs 18:24, right?
Jacob: (comes up) Yes, it is.
Jesus then turned to Helen in her wheelchair, walking over to her.
Jesus: Helen. Would you like to walk like your friends?
Helen: Well, yes, Jesus. But my legs don't work.
Jesus: That is because your legs were paralyzed when you were born.
Helen: (nods) Yes. My parents do their best to care for me. And I want so badly to be able to run and play with Chris and everyone back home. But…
Jesus: Why don't you try standing up?
Helen: (confused) St-Stand up?
Mia: What's going on, big brother?
Jacob: I think we're about to find out.
For some reason, Helen began to feel her legs. Then the feeling spread to her feet. She decided to try and kick her shoes off. She did so, revealing her bare feet. She lifted up her legs so she could see her feet.
Helen: (gasps)
She wiggled her toes, giggling in a giddy way.
Jesus: Now, stand, child. Stand.
Helen placed her feet on the ground, and pushed herself off her wheelchair, allowing herself to stand up.
Frances: Danny, Helen is standing.
Danny: Amazing.
Jesus: Now, walk, Helen.
Helen lifted her left foot first, then she put it down in front of her. Then she lifted her right foot and repeated the same process. As she walked, Helen could feel everything under her feet that she could before. The grass, the dirt, everything.
Helen: (laughs happily) I can walk. I can walk! Praise the Lord!
Helen then turned to Chris, walked over to him, and gave him a big hug.
Helen: Oh, Chris, isn't this wonderful? I don't need my wheelchair anymore! I'm walking!
Chris smiled as he returned Helen's hug.
Chris: (unsure what to say) T-That's wonderful, Helen.
Then Helen began running around the farm, with Chris chasing after her, playfully.
Mia: B-But how…?
Jacob: Seems even in modern times, the Lord is still capable of performing miracles.
Jesus: That is correct, Jacob. (looks up) Aurora?
Aurora: Oh, um, yes?
Jesus: Are you happy with your life with the McKnights?
Aurora: Oh, yes. Very much.
Jesus: Tell me, do you wish to be your normal size again?
Aurora: Well, at first I thought that was what I wanted… But the truth is… I'm happy the way I am now. I've got a family that loves me, and I've got wonderful friends here. (to Alolan Exeggutor) Right, Willow? (to Steelix) Bertha? (to shiny Onix) Pebbles? (to Gyarados) Bubbles?
Willow: (nods) Exeggutor.
Bertha, Pebbles, and Bubbles each growled in affirmation. Jesus only smiled.
Jesus: If you're happy with your size, then I'm pleased. Perhaps you may be able to show others that you can use your size to help others.
Aurora: Well, maybe.
Jesus: Take your time, child. Well, I must be on My way. Stay safe, my young friends.
Mia: Wait! Will my friends and I see you again, Jesus?
Jacob: Now, Mia. I'm sure He has other things He has to attend to.
Sally and Deirdre: Agreed.
Jesus smiled at little Mia.
Jesus: I may be busy, Mia, but I always have time for children.
Mia: Um… Is it okay to, uh…
Jesus: Would you like a hug?
Mia: Oh yes! Please.
Jesus kindly obliged and gave the autistic girl a gentle hug. Mia happily hugged Him right back. After the hug, Jesus waved goodbye and disappeared.
Sonic: Well, I think it's time for us to juice.
Chris: Us too.
Helen: Oh, wait! (picks up her sneakers) Almost forgot my shoes. (giggles) I can't wait to go frolicking barefoot in the park back home.
Frances: Wait till our Sonic and his friends see this.
Danny: Wait, what about your wheelchair, Helen?
Helen: Oh, I'm sure someone back home will want it. (giggles) I can't wait for my parents to see me now.
Chris: (smiles) They'll certainly be surprised.
Sonic: Well, tell your Sonic we said hi.
Chris, Helen, Frances, Danny: We will!
Chris: Okay, Palkia. We're ready to go home.
Sonic: Us too.
Palkia nodded and used its power to open two portals - one to Mobius, and the other to Chris and his friends' world.
Sonic, Chris, and others: Goodbye!
Ash, Jacob, and others: Goodbye!
Soon, the kids from the other words were gone. And with its job done, Palkia took its leave.
Grandpa: Well, this calls for a celebration!
Grandma: How would you young ones like to spend the night here?
Kids: Yeah!
Pokémon: Yes!
Aurora: There's plenty of room in my bedroom for you all to sleep in. Uh, if you don't mind.
Sally: I think I'll join in. I'll be sure and tell my Mom.
Jacob: Good idea.
Grandma: I'll make my own special tomato soup.
Brock, Tabitha, Tracey, Cilan, and Mallow offered to help make other dishes.
Grandma: Well, first thing's first, dears. Before you go in, make sure you wipe your feet.
Ash and Pikachu: Yes, ma'am!
Aurora and Mia: Yes, Grandma.
Narrator: Friends are special all over the world. No matter what you look like, who you are, or from another universe, God is happy just the way you are. Now, our heroes' are about to spend the night in a barn with a giant girl. As the Journey Continues.
