172. Pokémon, Ninjas, Fairies, and Ponies P5

Episode 172: Pokémon, Ninjas, Fairies, and Ponies Part 5

Sora, Kairi, the Pokémon, Fairy Tail wizards, Ninja Turtles, April, and the Ponies followed the tracks left by Guzzlord. They knew they were getting closer judging how fresh the tracks looked.

"Guzzlord should be around here somewhere. Try listening to any movement," Sora said. The turtles got their weapons ready.

"Man, this reminds me of the time we snuck inside that Triceraton Federation ship way back," Mikey said.

"Yeah, but the problem is, the Triceratons knew we were inside it when you stupidly pushed a button," Raph snapped at the youngest Ninja Turtle.

"Triceratons?" Lucy asked. Before Donnie could explain it, Leo interuppeted.

"It's a very long story; and we don't really have time to tell it," Leo said.

"But the memories of kicking their dino-butts always makes me smile," Raph said grinning.

"Usually memories that involves cupcakes always makes me smile," Pinkie said. She smacked her lips just thinking about those cupcakes.

"We should be approaching this thing soon, right?" Romeo asked.

"We're close, kid. Salamander, the kid and I can smell it," Gajeel said.

"Everyone, be on your guard," Erza said. Sora and Kairi took out their Pokéballs and let out their Pokémon ready to battle against Guzzlord.

Back in Equestria, Mallow had finished the meal intended for the Apple family. The rest of the Alolan nine had joined in on the meal provided by the Grass Type trainer and their Pokémon were let out to join in on the meal as well.

As the meal went on, they had shared their stories about their adventures about Sora, Kairi, and all sorts of experiences they had together since meeting them. Sugar Belle was amazed to hear so much had happened since then. The Alolan nine all laughed at the story of how Big Mac and Sugar Belle became a couple; Sophocles laughed hard especially at the part when Big Mac tried kissing her in her sleep.

"I can't believe all of that happened," Sophocles said, laughing like a hyena.

"Me neither. Just imagine if Sora would try something like that," Mallow added.

"No way," Mina denied.

"Mina's right, even Sora's not goofy enough to try something like that," Kiawe agreed.

"But it's fun to picture it," Lana said, chuckling.

The Alolan nine all laughed at the idea.

"So, Sugar Belle. What happened to Feather Bangs after that?" Lillie asked.

"I've seen him talking to some of the other ponies in the village afterwards; especially three not-so secret admirers," Sugar Belle answered. Apple Bloom smiled to herself, knowing that her advice along with Scootaloo and Sweetie Belle had paid off.

"And it's all because of this little matchmaker here," Hapu said, looking at Apple Bloom. Apple Bloom, chuckled turning away. She looked over at Ponyta and Mudsdale eating the apples provided to them. But Mudsdale was eating dirt for some reason.

"Um, Hapu, why is that one eating dirt?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Mudsdale eats dirt because it because their saliva can make a mud that is so strong, not even water can wash it nor wind can blow it away. Mudsdale even has a pretty mean kick to boot," Hapu explained.

"Wow! That's so cool!" Apple Bloom said, excited.

"That was my first reaction when I first saw it," Hapu said. She noticed something was up. "Say, there was something that's been bugging me and it might keep bugging me until I ask. Is it just you, your sister, your brother, and your granny the whole time?" The Apples all sighed sadly at the question.

"Fraid that it is, youngster," Granny Smith answered. "Ever since both mah son Bright Macintosh and mah daughter-in-law Buttercup left us."

The Alolan nine all understood what she meant when Granny Smith said that.

"Oh," the Alolan nine all said at once.

"Sorry. I didn't to rub salt on the wounds it's just I-" Hapu said, when the elderly mare raised her hoof.

"It's all good, youngin. Ya didn't know," Granny Smith said.

"Hey! Why are we talking about the sad stuff when we should be focusing on more positive stuff?" Sophocles asked.

"I agree. What's the point of enjoying a meal if we don't do that?" Illima asked.

"Ah've been wondering for a while now. Spike mentioned ya'll met Discord and he said Sora is a Pokémon League champion. Is Sora famous back where ya are from?" Apple Bloom asked.

"He is if he won the Indigo Plateau tournament," Acerola said.

"What kind of tournament is it?" Sugar Belle asked.

"It's a competition held every year," Illima said.

"The Alola region never had a Pokémon League tournament before, but it was more intensed than I imagined," Lillie explained.

"How do you get into it?" Sugar Belle asked.

"In order to qualify for it, you have to obtain a total of eight Gym Badges by defeating a Gym Leader," Illima explained.

"We never seen an actual Gym battle until we witnessed Sora obtaining his fourth one in Celadon City," Lana said.

"Erika was nothing to sneeze at. Especially her Ivysaur and Gloom," Mallow remembered.

"Neither were Koga, Sabrina, Blaine, and Hayner after her," Lana said. "The same can be said about Falkner, Bugsy, Whitney, Morty, Jasmine, and Chuck."

"And they were tough trainers," Sophocles remembered.

"Wait a sec! That's more than eight! Did Sora earn more than eight?" Apple Bloom asked.

"No. He had earned six badges when we got sent here through an Ultra Wormhole," Illima said.

"And if only we had a clue about to get back; even with Sunburst's best shot," Acerola said.

Back at the Castle of Friendship, Sunburst searched for a world traveling spell in many of the books in the castle's library, but so far he didn't find a single clue.

"Blast! I was certain I found a clue," Sunburst groaned. "Starlight. I hope you're somewhere safe by now.

Back in Earthland, Bart had finally caught up with Guzzlord and he grinned.

"Guzzlord! Enjoy your last moments of freedom while it lasts, because you are going to be mine!" Bart proclaimed, taking out all of his Pokéballs. "Go! Melmetal! Falinks! Lycanroc! Charizard! Electivire! Duraludon!" All of Bart's Pokéballs opened and his Pokémon are all let out. He has a Dusk Form Lycanroc, but it has a scar on the left eye. One is a Pokémon that consists of six individual Pokémon. Each one of them is round and black with two legs. Their eyes are solid white with a blue outline, and there is no discernible mouth. Their armor is yellow with white area around the side, as well as red points. There is also red spikes on their heads. The one leading has a large spike on its head. The other one is a large reptilian Pokémon with large feet, a chunky tail, and a head integrated to its neck. It has zigzag patterns running down its body, gray bands around its arms, and has two black slits on its lower chest. Its right hand has four triangular indents, while its left has five. It also has a red segment on its head and two slits on its head. Its body is mainly light gray and dark blue. The Pokémon has yellow eyes with green pupils., making it appear that its scowling. Guzzlord turns and lets out a loud roar, trying to scare them off, but sadly, it wasn't enough to scare them off. "Try if may, Guzzlord, but I'm not running away from you! And you're not getting away from me either! Falinks! No Retreat!" Falink's eyes glows purple and it surrounds Guzzlord , keeping it from retreating. "Great! Now! Electivire! Fire your Signal Beam!" Electivire fired Signal Beam right at the second head; but Guzzlord fights back by firing Dragon Pulse right at Electivire.

"Vire!" Electivire cried. Bart clinched his fist, not backing down.

"If that's how you wanna do this, then let's do this! Duraludon! Breaking Swipe!" Bart ordered. Duraludon swings its tail giving a purplish glow and strikes Guzzlord hard. "Okay Lycanroc! Use Stone Edge!" Lycanroc howls as shard rocks comes out of the ground and heads right towards Guzzlord, striking it from under. "Charizard! You use Dragon Pulse!" Charizard fires Dragon Pulse right towards Guzzlord's weak spot, but Guzzlord fires Dark Pulse, blocking the attack. "Melmetal! Flash Cannon!" Melmetal fires Flash Cannon and Guzzlord swings at the large Pokémon, knocking it down. "Falinks! Megahorn!" Falinks's horn starts glowing light blue and charges towards Guzzlord, but it swings its claw right at Falinks. All of Bart's Pokémon combined their attacks to bring it down, but it wasn't enough. Guzzlord was about to give the finishing blow when the group had arrived just in time to save him.

Natsu jumps ahead of everyone else and his hands emits fire and he screams as he heads towards the large Ultra Beast.

"With a flame on the right and a flame on the left!" Natsu said, creating a huge fireball above his head. "When you combine the flames together: Fire Dragon Brilliant Flame!" The fireball strikes the Ultra Beast's claw. Guzzlord roars in pain to that. He turns to Bart. "You doing okay?"

"I told you to stay out of this!" Bart scowled at him.

"All I did was save your life, man! Try showing some gratitude!" Natsu stated.

"Pikachu! Go!" Sora shouted.

"Pika!" Pikachu said. He dashes around as he used the rocks to increase his steps.

"Thunderbolt!" Sora ordered. Pikachu fired Thunderbolt, but Guzzlord blocks the attack. The Ninja Turtles threw their shurikens right towards Guzzlord's weak spot, but it blocks it with its other claw, but they explode on contact. The Ninja Turtles land on their feet.

"Okay Leo! I'm open for suggestions," Raph said.

"Try aiming for the legs. Raph, Shining Armor, and Applejack, and are with us. Rarity, Starlight, and Pinkie Pie are with Donnie and Mikey," Leo instructed.

"I like the sound of that, dude!" Mikey said, twirling his nunchucks.

The ponies joined in the fray. The Pichu rode on Fluttershy as Togepi and Tyrogue rode on Cadance. Machop, Magby, and Meltan rode on Twilight. Raichu and Larvitar rode on Rainbow Dash. Leo, Raph, Shining Armor, and Applejack went on the left as Donnie, Mikey, Rarity, Starlight, and Pinkie went on the right.

"Turtle power!" Mikey shouted as he swung his nunchucks at Guzzlord's leg. Donnie did the same thing as Rarity and Starlight combined their magic and gave Guzzlord a strike on the side. Shining Armor used his magic to levitate Applejack and she gave it a good kick on the side as Leo and Raph struck Guzzlord's other leg. Meganium, Typholsion, and Feraligatr joined in the fight.

"Meganium! Petal Blizzard! Typholsion! Flamethrower! Feraligatr! Water Gun!" Sora ordered. All of the fully evolved starter Pokémon of Johto fired their attacks right towards Guzzlord's weak spot, but it fired Dark Pulse, blocking the attacks. The Strauss siblings moved right in. Mirajane was in her Satan Form and Lisanna is in her cat form and Elfman changed into a huge monster. His arms grew longer and larger. His hands grew claws and they become covered in thick fur, with their abdominal and pectorals prominent in the middle. His hair takes on a mane-like appearance, Elfman's ears and canine teeth became pointed, and he grew a pair of striped horns pointing upwards, starting from a plate on his forehead. His feet resemblance to a large bird's, with dark claws. Mikey nearly jumped out of his shell when he saw that.

"Dudes! Is that Elfman?!" Mikey exclaimed.

"It's Elfman using his Take Over magic. That form is known as Beast Soul. It is said to be the King of Monsters," Levy said.

"Godzilla and King Kong has some competition," Donnie said. Levy waves her arms around.

"Solid Script: Lightning!" Levy shouted. The word "Lightning" appears written in actual lightning and it strikes Guzzlord. Jet uses his speed magic and lands a hit on Guzzlord and Droy threw some seeds down to the ground.

"Knuckle Plant!" Droy shouted as fist-shaped plants grow out from the seeds and gave the Ultra Beast several punches on the face.

"I'll show you what a real man can do!" Elfman spoke in his monstrous form. He picked up a huge boulder and threw it right at Guzzlord, but it grabbed the boulder and ate it.

"My move now!" Lucy proclaimed, taking out one of the Zodiac Gate keys. "Open! Gate of the Maiden! Virgo!" A light shines from below as a maid with short pink hair, wearing shackles on her wrists twirls upon entry. She bows her head in respect.

"You summoned me, princess? May I be punished?" Virgo requested.

"Why is she asking to be punished?" Kairi asked, confused.

"Don't ask, Kairi," Lucy simply said. "Anyway, Virgo. I need you to help out by taking down that thing!"

"Such a strange creature, but as you wish, princess," Virgo acknowledged. Virgo drills into the ground underneath. She took out her other key. "Now let's run an interference. Open! Gate of the lion! Loke!" Out of a shining light, came a man with spiky orange hair; resembeling a lion's mane. He had hair that looks animal ears. He wore a black suit with a white shirt underneath and a red tie. He wore black shoes. He wore a pair of blue shade glasses.

"Hey there, beautiful. Good of you to call me on our date," Loki greeted in a flirting manner.

"Are you and he-?" Sora asked before Lucy cut him off.

"No we're not!" Lucy exclaimed.

"Oh, sure you're not!" Bickslow teased.

"Aye!" Happy added.

"Aye!" The wooden figres also added.

"Guys, shouldn't we focus on the Ultra Beast?" Kairi asked.

"She's right. We gotta take it down," Sora agreed.

"Ultra what?" Loke asked confused. The couple pointed to Guzzlord fighting the ponies, turtles, and Pokémon. "Wow, Taurus wasn't kidding."

"We'll talk later, Loke. Help take it down!" Lucy instructed.

"Like, we're going to let him hog all the glory!" Laxus said. He took off the coat and lightning emitting from his fist and leapt towards the Ultra Beast. "Lightning Dragon Breakdown Fist!" Laxus started to come down fast as Guzzlord swung its claw at him.

"Laxus!" The Thunder Legion exclaimed.

"You're going to pay for that, monster!" Freed threatened. He drew out his sword. He waved it in the air. "Dark Écriture: Wings!" Freed's sword creates several runes and forms into wings. Evergreen forms fairy wings and Bickslow waves his arms and his dolls .

"Fairy Machine Gun: Leprechaun!" Evergreen shouted. She fired a torrent of energy needles made from conentrated dust.

"Baryon Formation!" Bickslow shouted. His dolls positioned themselves in a pentagonal pattern. A large whirlwind is produced around the formation, and from the latter's hollow center a massive and powerful magical beam is generated, which is subsequently fired towards Guzzlord. Guzzlord responds by firing Dragon Pulse and it strikes the Thunder Legion. Azlack and Bisca fire their shots using their gun magic and they hardly made a dent on it and Cana threw her cards and Laki sends several wooden structures right towards Guzzlord. Romeo joins in the fray.

"Blue Fire!" Romeo shouted. He fired a blue flame and it strikes Guzzlord. Virgo digs from underground and heads right towards its weak spot, but Guzzlord swings its claw at the celestial spriit. Loke adjusts his glasses and his fist emits light.

"Regulus Impact!" Loke shouted as a magic circle appeared in front of him and fires a light forms a lion's face and heads towards the Ultra Beast.

Guzzlord fired Dragon Pulse blocking the attack. Wendy had Wendy Carla carry Wendy and Pantherlily carries Gajeel.

"Iron Dragon..." Gajeel started.

"Sky Dragon..." Wendy added.

The two Dragon Slayers finished, "ROAR!"

Wendy and Gajeel fired their breath attacks and headed towards Guzzlord, but it instead ate their combo attacks.

"It did it again!" Pantherlily exclaimed.

"Abra! Psychic!" Kairi ordered. Abra lifted some rocks and pelted the Ultra Beast.

Juvia fired her water magic right at Guzzlord. Erza even swung her swords at the Ultra Beast, but it didn't even flinch. Twilight and Cadance fired their magic right at the Ultra Beast and Togepi fired Swift, Magby fired Incinerate, Larvitar fired Rock Slide, Raichu fired Thunderbolt and Meltan fired Flash Cannon. All of the attacks were aimed at Guzzlord's weak spot and Guzzlord wasn't quick enough to respond and landed a hit.

"That was a pretty good hit!" April said.

"Yeah, but it's not enough," Bart said. "I guess I was wrong to try it on my own. Now let's do this! Duraludon! Steel Beam!" Bart ordered. Duraludon fired a silver beam of energy and it heads towards Guzzlord's weak spot, but Guzzlord fires a powerful Heat Wave and it cuts through the attack, and it hits the reptilian Pokémon on the spot, knocking it out.

"What was that?" Sora asked. "I never seen that attack before."

"Steel Beam. It's a Steel Type attack that takes form of a beam of energy. It also cuts the user's stamina in half after each use," Bart explained. He calls back his fallen Duraludon into its Pokéball. "Get some rest. You derserve it." He turns to Melmetal and his other Pokémon. "Melmetal, Lycanroc, Charizard, Electivire, Falinks. You're up!" All of his Pokémon nodded.

"So am I," Sora said. He looked right at him. Bart smiles as he saw a bit of himself in this young Pokémon trainer.

"Okay. Let's do this thing!" Bart proclaimed. He and Sora shook hands. Sora looked over to Pikachu and nodded. He got on Charizard's back as did Abra. Charizard flew off towards the Ultra Beast. Tyrogue performs Bullet Punch and Power-Up Punch on the Ultra Beast. Twilight and Cadance catches the Fighting Types with their magic. Sora, Kairi, and Bart stepped up.

"Pikachu! Electro Ball!" Sora ordered.

"Abra! Guide that Electro Ball right towards Guzzlord's top with Psychic!" Kairi called out. Pikachu forms a ball of electricity and Abra uses Psychic guide the electrical ball right towards Guzzlord and it strikes the large Ultra Beast on the mark.

"Melmetal! Double Iron Bash!" Bart ordered. Melmetal spins its body around, swinging both if its arms. Melmetal lands a hit on Guzzlord. "Great! Electivire! Falinks! Use Focus Blast!" Both Electivire and Falinks creates balls of blue energy and sends them right towards Guzzlord with Abra's Psychic. Lycanroc! Use your Accelerock!" Lycanroc uses its speed attack on the Ultra Beast, but it swipes at the wolf Pokémon with its claw. Elfman manages to catch Lycanroc.

"Got ya, wolfie!" Elfman said.

Magby fires Ember like a machine gun, but Guzzlord wasn't feeling that, but luckliy the Pichu both fired a combined Thunder Shock, even if it did hurt them from every use; but the knew the risk. That only tickled the Ultra Beast, but Meltan fired Flash Cannon right on its back.

"Feraligatr! Superpower!" Sora ordered.

"Melmetal! You use Superpower too!" Bart ordered.

Both Pokémon started glowing in a light blue aura and headed right towards the Ultra Beast, landing a hit.

"Typhloson! Flame Wheel!" Sora ordered. Typhlosion rolls into a ball of fire and rolls right into Guzzlord. Gray takes his shirt off and puts his hands together.

"Ice Make: Floor!" Gray shouted as he slams his hands on the ground, freezing the ground. Starlight uses her magic to move Rarirty, Pinkie, Shining Armor, and the Ninja Turtles and the Fairy Tail wizards just moved out of the way in time. Guzzlord has trouble keeping its balance and falls to the ground. Natsu comes into the scene.

"Fire Dragon Roar!" Natsu shouted unleashing his breath attack. Guzzlord manages to eat Natsu's fire attack. "It just ate my attack again!"

"Aye!" Happy said.

"Meganium! Vine Whip!" Sora ordered. Meganium smacks Guzzlord with her vines hard. "Pikachu! Thunderbolt!"

"Charizard! You use Dragon Pulse!" Bart ordered.

Pikachu fired Thunderbolt and Charizard fired Dragon Pulse and combined and gave a blow on the Ultra Beast. Suddenly, an Ultra Wormhole opens up. Sora, Kairi, and Bart were the first to notice it.

"It's an Ultra Wormhole!" Kairi pointed out.

"I see it!" Sora said. April and Lucy noticed it as well.

"That's what Donnie opened up before," April said. "Why did it just open up?"

"I don't know, but it's a good thing that it did, because, we have to get it through it!" Sora said.

"Although I hate to say it, but he's right. I know I wanted to catch it for myself, but it's too dangerous to have around as I now realize. It's best that it went home," Bart said.

"Then, let's get it back home before it closes!" Sora stated.

"He's right. The longer it stays, the harder it'll be to send it back," Kairi said.

"Right," Sora and Bart in unison.

"Everyone! Push Guzzlord in that Ultra Wormhole! Do it before it closes!" Sora called out.

"You heard him, guys! Send it packing!" Leo said.

"Didn't you say something about a chance to get back?" Donnie asked.

"Yes I did, but it's not it! Do it!" Leo said. The Ninja Turtles ran a few distractions on Guzzlord as the unicorns and alicorns used their magic to push the Ultra Beast backwards. Elfman ran up to the Ultra Beast, doing his part to push it back.

"Everyone man up and push it!" Elfman called out. Everyone did his or her part to send Guzzlord through an Ultra Wormhole before it closes.

Back in Equestria, the Alolan nine all returned to the Castle of Friendship, feeling satisfied with full bellies. The Cutie Mark Crusaders even joined them as they came back.

"Well, that was good," Acerolca said.

"Yeah," Mina agreed.

"Do you think Sunburst has found a way to send you back yet?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"I hope so, becuase I don't wanna think of anything bad happening to Sora and Kairi," Kiawe said. They all went to the library where Sunburst was still looking and Spike walked with Flurry Heart clinging to Spike. Spike noticed the humans to come back.

"Found anything yet?" Mallow asked.

"I'm afraid not. I'm sorry. I have searched for answers for several hours, but no such luck," Sunburst answered.

"No rush," Lana said.

Back on Sora's world, Team Rocket looked around for Sora, Kairi, and the Alolan nine.

"Where could those twerps be?" Jessie asked.

"We've been looking for them for several days and so far, no luck," James said. Jessie turns to Meowth.

"Meowth, are you sure this is where they would be by now?" Jessie asked, irritated.

"I am certain, Jess. The twerps would be coming here for a Gym Badge. So, for a change, we would have the drop on them before they even know we're here," Meowth said.

"Then, let's get to work and swipe Pikachu from those goody-good kids and leave them in the dirt," Jessie proclaimed. Team Rocket got to work on ther latest scheme.

Back in Equestria, the Alolan nine were helping Sunburst search for an answer when Discord had suddenly appeared before everyone.

"Hello again, everybody. I hope you're adjusting to your new life in Equestria. Gotta admit, it's a real nice place to live; would be nicer if I had added a little bit of choas in the mix," Discord said.

"We have no time to talk, Discord, because we're trying to find a spell to get back into Ultra Space," Hapu told the Spirit of Choas.

"Now why would you wanna go back in there? The whole place is crawling with Ultra Beasts, and you may not be so lucky to get out of there again," Discord warned the Alolan nine.

"Just to find Sora and Kairi. And get back into our world together," Kiawe added.

"Oh that," scoffed Discord. "Well, you'll be happy to know, that they are no longer there." The Alolan nine, Cutie Mark Crusaders, Spike, and Sunburst all looked right at the draconequus.

"What do you mean they're not in Ultra Space anymore?" Mallow asked.

"And how do you know about that in the first place?" Sophocles asked.

"I would know because I was just there," Discord explained. He snapped his fingers and a slide machine appeared. A snapshot of him with several Ultra Beasts popped up. "You see, that is me. I was searching high and low for the lovebirds when several Poipole confirmed that they saw them go through an Ultra Wormhole the same time you did." A snapshot of him as a cop interrogating them. So, I figured they had made an unexpected drop into a different world. So, I searched different worlds one by one. So, I came across on world known as Earthland and asked some people in a town called Magnolia and they said they saw a couple of kids and nine ponies matching the description perfectly. Along with four hooded indivuals." A slide of Discord wearing a light brown trenchcoat and a brown fedora shows him talking to a few people.

"You mean you could travel between worlds the whole time?" Lillie asked.

"Hello! Spirit of Choas here. I can travel to different dimensions with a snap of my talons. And I just thought you would like to know that they are okay. And you are welcome by the way," Discord said.

"And you couldn't tell us about it until now?" Sophocles asked.

"It would have been too easy if I just gave you the answer from the word go. Just thought you should experience the surroundings of your current enviroment. And maybe adjust to life in Equestria as humans tends to do," Discord said.

"That could be useful," Illima said, making everyone turn to the Normal Type trainer. "We're glad to know Sora and Kairi are doing alright, so we would appreciate that you get us there as soon as possible. Please." Discord thought for a moment.

"Well, okay. Only because you said please," Discord said. He snaps his talons and the Alolan nine, Cutie Mark Crusaders, and Spike teleported out of the room leaving him, Sunburst, and Flurry Heart behind.

"Discord! Why did you teleport Spike and the Crusaders, too?!" Sunburst exclaimed.

"Oops," Discord said.

Back in Earthland, everyone was continuing to push Guzzlord back to Ultra Space when suddenly, the Alolan nine, Spike, and the Cutie Mark Crusaders came falling down from the sky, making Kairi, April, Bart look up. They all move as they all dog pile on top of Sora.

"I could have done without the teleportation of us too," Spike groaned.

"We're glad that you're okay, Spike, but could you please got off my back?" Lillie asked.

"Could all of you get of my back?" Sora asked. The Alolan nine got wide-eyed when they heard a familiar voice.

"Sora!" The Alolan nine all exclaimed.

"Who were you expecting, Iron Man?" Sora asked. Everyone got off of Sora and they were thrilled to see him again.

"You're alive!" Sophocles cried, hugging him tight.

"The same for you, Sophocles," Sora said feeling his grip.

"How did you get here? Did you find a out of Ultra Space just like we did?" Kairi asked.

"We did. And you wouldn't believe where we've been," Mallow said. The couple looked over to the three fillies and baby dragon.

"Try us," Sora said. Guzzlord's roar is then heard cathing the Alolan nine's attention. "Maybe later." They all got a look at the Ultra Beast and they were shocked to see it.

"What in the world is that thing?!" Hapu exclaimed.

"And Ultra Beast known as Guzzlord," Bart answered the Ground Type trainer's question.

"And who are you?" Acerola asked.

"We can talk later. We have to work together to send it back through that Ultra Wormhole," Kairi said.

"Right," Lillie said. She turns to Spike and the Crusaders. "Spike, you and the girls stay back. It's dangerous." Spike gulped. The baby dragon knew how dangerous it really is.

"Don't worry about us, Lillie. We got that covered," Spike said.

The Alolan nine sent out their Pokémon to assist in sending Guzzlord back to Ultra Space. Everyone combined their attacks and manges to push the large Ultra Beast through the Ultra Wormhole before it closes. The Fairy Tail wizards, Ninja Turtles, and ponies were exhausted from the intense battle as were Sora and Kairi's Pokémon.

"It's over," Sora sighed.

"So glad," Lucy added. Virgo appears before Lucy.

"Since victory is ours, princess, may I now be punished?" Virgo requested.

"We can talk about that later," Lucy said, sending Virgo back.

"See ya around, beautiful," Loke said, vanishing as well.

"Did you see the look on that thing's face dudes? It was all like 'roar' and we were all like, 'we're sending you back' I have gotta tell you, that was pretty epic," Mikey said.

The Alolan nine were shocked to see four giant turtles walking up along with the Pokémon. They didn't know how to react. Spike and the Crusaders were seeing them as well.

"Am I seeing four big turtles?" Mina asked.

"Yes you are, Mina," Sora said.

"And don't worry, they won't bite," Kairi added.

"Unless we're snapping turtles," Donnie added.

Twilight, and the other ponies noticed Spike and the Crusaders with them.

"Spike? How did you get here?" Twilight asked surprised.

"Discord, that's how," Spike said.

The older ponies and the younger ponies were happy to see each other again. Sora, Kairi, Pikachu, Togepi, and the Pichu were relived to see the Alolan nine again. The Fairy Tail wizards approached the other trainers, particularity Natsu.

"Didn't expect you guys to show up like that. And those other things sure did lend a hand," Natsu said, smiling.

"Aye sir!" Happy added.

"First four big turtles, now a flying talking bue cat?" Lillie asked.

Everyone all returned to the Fairy Tail guild hall, but along the way, the Alolan nine all expplained that they had ended up in Equestria and how they met the Crusaders and Spike. Natsu was stoked on seeing Spike. Even though he is a small dragon, but it didn't contain his excitement. The Ninja Turtles even shared the story of how they became what they are now. The Thunder Legion were amazed to hear how they were ordinary turtles before being mutated and raised by a rat.

Sora had been wondering why Bart was joining them, but he just said, he had nothing else to do, but to challenge Sora into a battle. He accepted the challenge from him. Sora had a question that needed answering.

"Say Bart. There was something I wanted to know and it'll bug me if I don't ask," Sora said.

"What?" Bart asked.

"My thoughts have been on Melmetal. How did you get a hold of that huge Pokémon?" Sora asked.

"I found it as a Meltan back home. There were a whole bunch of them and they were eating all sorts of metal. I never would have imagine how many of those little ones I saw. And not too long afterwards, my Meltan evolved into a Melmetal," Bart explained.

"So Meltan can evolve after all. Professor Oak is sure going to be in for a huge surprise when he hears about this," Sora said.

"How did you get a Meltan?" Bart asked.

"We found Meltan in my backpack and mistook it for some trash, until it fired Flash Cannon from all the poking it was getting," Sora said.

"I see," Bart said.

"Also, I was surprised to see that you had a Dusk Form Lycanroc, just like me," Sora said.

"You have one, too?! I thought I was the only one!" Bart said.

"So did I," Sora said. "I mean, the only one that I know about."

"Also, those other Pokémon with you, I never saw those before. You from the Galar region?" Sora asked.

"I am," Bart admitted. Sora took out his Pokédex and he scanned Bart's Pokémon.

The hardness of its cells is exceptional, even among Steel Types. It also has a body structure that's resistant to earthquakes. Its body resembles polished metal, and it's both lightweight and strong. The only drawback is that it rusts easily. It shares a fierce rivalry with Tyranitar.

"Whoa," Sora said, putting his Pokédex away. "My Pokédex couldn't get info on Melmetal. Could Melmetal be a new kind of Pokémon just like Meltan?"

"That could be possible, Sora," Kairi said.

"I thought the same thing as she did," Bart said. "I'm going to admit I was surprised by how something so tiny could turn into something so huge."

"Like you're the only one, Bart," Sora said.

"Any idea on how you're going to head back home, Bart?" Kairi asked.

"If I knew, I would have already thought of it. I guess I'm stuck here until then," Bart said. He looked over to Sora. "You said you found Meltan in your backpack right?"

"Um, yeah. We all had to assume that it was a new species of Pokémon," Sora said.

"Also, I heard those little fillies mention something about you winning the Pokémon League back in the Kanto region. But the problem is I have never even heard of you. I also did a little detective work. You, her, and your friends aren't from the same Earth as me," Bart concluded. Sora and Kairi let it all sink in as they had looked at each other.

"So, you're from an alternate Earth, huh?" Kairi asked.

"Yep. So, I wanna see how tough you are when I challenged you into a Pokémon battle," Bart said. "We can have our match first thing tomorrow."

"I was wondering when we were gonna have it," Sora said. The two trainers shook hands holding each other to the upcoming battle. The couple joined Lucy back to her apartment for one more night as the Alolan girls went with April at Fairy Hills and the Alolan boys stayed with the Staruss siblings. Morning came as Bart and Sora got ready for their battle. It was taking place at Magnolia's South Gate Park.

It drew in quite a crowd from all over the city. Also from other guilds as well. The Trimens were drawn to it as well as Lyon, Sherry, Shelia, and a man with huge eyebrows and a dog faced man. With them is a large bald-headed man with a long goatee. With the Trimens is a young woman with blonde hair wearing a strapless light pink dress and she wore a fair mount of jewelry.

Coming in is a group of men that appear to be from a different guild. One of them looked pretty sadistic. In another section, three individuals accompanied by two exceeds, with one of them wearing a pink frog suit. One is a young man with blonde hair wearing white and the other is a young man wearing black and he had black hair. One is a young woman with short white hair and she had keys similar to Lucy's. There were two women present and one of them resembled a cat and the other had long purple hair resembling a Japanese princess style haircut. She wore an elaborate blazer with gold lining, and a large collar, which is open to reveal a collared shirt and red tie underneath. Her cuffs of the jacket are tucked into a pair of white wrist-high gloves. On her legs, She wore a pair of black tights, which are tucked into a pair of knee-high boots and sit under a short white frilled skirt. She also wore a white headband with a white ribbon tied at the middle in a bow, pointing straight up.

Sora and Bart got into position as they got ready for their battle. Illima had stepped in acting as referee. Kairi sat along with her Pokémon, the Pichu, the rest of the Alolan nine, the ponies, Spike, Ninja Turtles, April, and Fairy Tail wizards to watch the battle about to begin.

"Ladies and gentlemen! What you are about to witness is a Pokémon between Bart against Sora! Both trainers are using six Pokémon each and the battle is over when all six are unable to continue! Trainers! Are you ready?!" Illima announced.

"Yes!" Sora and Bart announced.

"Then, let the battle begin!" Illima instructed. Bart makes the first move, taking out a Pokéball and gets ready to throw it.

"You're in first, Electivire!" Bart shouted when he threw his Pokéball. It let out a loud yell upon entry. Sora took out a Pokéball as he made his first choice.

"Go right in, Larvitar!" Sora shouted. The Pokéball opens as Larvitar enters the battle against Electivire. A lot of murmurs were going around as why he chose a small Pokémon like Larvitar against a large Pokémon like Electivire.

"He's sending Larvitar against that thing? Why would he do that?" Natsu asked.

"Because he knows Electivire's Electric Type attacks won't have any effect since Larvitar is a Ground Type. Bart knows that too," Kairi said.

"Electivire! Signal Beam!" Bart ordered. Electivire fired Signal Beam right at Larvitar.

"Dodge and use Rock Slide!" Sora ordered. Larvitar avoids the beam and sends out a a barrage of rocks. The attack strikes Electivire, but it blocks the attacks with its arms.

"Electivire! Use Focus Blast!" Bart ordered. Electivire forms a blue ball of energy and sends it towards Larvitar.

"Block it with Dark Pulse!" Sora ordered. Larvitar blocked the attack with Dark Pulse making a small explosion.

"What a lucky break," Lucy said.

"Yeah, but Bart's not finished yet," Mallow said.

"Electivire! Signal Beam again!" Bart ordered. Bart fired Signal Beam, but Larvitar avoids the attack.

"Dark Pulse!" Sora ordered. Larvitar fires Dark Pulse and it strikes Electivire on the spot. "Now use Earthquake!" Larvitar jumps in the air and the whole park starts shaking. Everyone held on to something as the Earthquake took effect. Electivire fell to the ground, feeling the effect. "Now use Crunch!" Larvitar lands a bite on Electivire's arm.

"Shake it off!" Bart called out. Electivire tries to shake off Larvitar, but his hold was too great. Sora saw how fast Electivire was tiring itself out.

"Okay Larvitar! Let go and hurl Rock Slide!" Sora ordered. Larvitar fires Rock Slide and it strikes Electivire, knocking it out. Illima raises his right hand.

"Electivire is unable to battle! Larvitar wins!" Illima announced.

"One down and five to go," Acerola said.

"That was impressive," Raph said.

"It sure was. Just how did he do that?" Gray asked.

"He used his head, that's how," Hapu said. Bart calls back Electivire and looked right at his Pokéball.

"You did your best, Electivire. Take a good long rest," Bart said, taking out another Pokéball. "It's your turn now, Falinks!" He shouted when the Pokéball opens and Falinks got into position upon entry.

"So, he's sending in a Falinks. A good choice against a Rock Type like Larvitar," Lillie said.

"I thought you said Larvitar is a Ground Type," Natsu said.

"Larvitar is a Rock Type and a Ground Type. Falinks has the advantage since being a Fighting Type," Sophocles said.

"I'm guessing he wants to get back at Sora for taking down Electivire," April said.

"Falinks! Start off with No Retreat!" Bart ordered. Falinks used this move on Larvitar just so Sora wouldn't be able to switch any of his Pokémon. Sora tried to make a switch, but it wasn't working.

"What the?! Why isn't Larvitar coming back?!" Sora exclaimed.

"Because Falinks used No Retreat. It not only keeps you from switching your Pokémon, but it also raises Falinks's stats," Bart explained. "Comes in handy when trying to catch a wild Pokémon."

"Good to know. Larvitar! Rock Slide!" Sora ordered. Larvitar forms rocks around himself and sends them right at the formation Pokémon. Bart wasn't easy to scare off.

"Falinks! Rock Smash!" Bart ordered. Falinks moved towards the rocks and splits to smash them all into tiny pebbles. "No use Megahorn!" The brass's horn glows light green and grows larger. Falinks charges towards Larvitar.

"Block it now!" Sora called out. Larvitar grabbed Falinks by the horn and holds his ground against the formation Pokémon. Both Pokémon weren't backing off one little bit.

Unknown by anyone, watching the battle is a girl that appears to be thirteen years of age with very long, wavy, pastel yellow-blonde hair that reaches down to her feet with a smallahoge large green eyes with no pupils; peachy skin. She wore a frilly, pink layered robe with a red ribbon tied in a bow around her neck. Around the chest are three blue diamond patterns with two blue triangles above. Each series of these is outlined in a hot pink. She wore wing-like adornments around her ears and small hoop earrings. She is also barefooted.

The girl was impressed by how well they handled their Pokémon and how well they in turn work with their trainers. Larvitar and Falinks continiued to hold their ground waiting for the other to slip up.

"Larvitar! Give Falinks a toss!" Sora called out. Larvitar lifted the brass and held it in his right hand. The other five individuals were stunned to see what Larvitar was doing. Larvitar rolled the brass like a bowling ball and hit all of the others like bowling spins.

"Strike!" Mikey and Pinkie both said in unison.

"I wasn't expecting that to happen," Kiawe said.

"Can Falinks keep going after taking that hit?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Only one way to see," Lana said. Falinks tried to get back up, but it was too hurt from that bowling ball trick and laid on the ground in a daze. Illima raises his right hand.

"Falinks is unable to battle! Larvitar wins!" Illima announced.

"That answers that," Shining Armor said.

"Impressive. The boy has shown such real potential," the large man said.

"I agree, Jura. From what we have heard from Gray, I didn't doubt his skills; especially when dealing with a larger opponent and one that can come apart," Lyon said.

"I gotta admit, I thought that first one was going to mop the floor with that small fry, but I guess I was wrong," the dog man said.

"So did I, Toby. The way that spiky-haired kid turned the size tables on that yeti thing took me by surprise," the man with large eyebrows added.

"He had love on his side," Sherry said.

Bart calls Falinks back inside and he takes out another Pokéball and threw in the air.

"It's your turn now, Lycanroc!" Bart shouted and Lycanroc howls upon entry.

"Bart's next Pokémon is his Lycanroc. And it's a Dusk Form Lycanroc," Hapu said.

"And Sora is the only trainer I know who has one," Mallow said.

"Seriously? The only one you know about?" Twilight asked surprised.

"Yeah," Mina said.

"This was a sight I never thought I would see," Kairi said.

"This should be interesting to watch," Acerola said. Sora saw how tired Larvitar was and he calls back Larvitar and pulls out another Pokéball and threw it.

"Go! Meganium!" Sora shouted. The Pokéball opens and the first thing Meganium does is charge right into Sora and nuzzles him. He wheezes, "Love you too, but we have a battle here."

"Why did Meganium just do that to Sora?" Apple Bloom asked.

"Meganium has been like that ever since Sora first caught her. She was such a stubborn little Chikorita; not accepting defeat as an option," Kairi explained. "Then, she started to show some affection for him."

"And judging how he took it, it seems that he's very used to it," Donnie said.

"Sure looks that way to me," Rainbow Dash said.

"And by sending out Meganium, Sora has the advantage in Type when it comes to Lycanroc," Hapu said.

"Meganium! Vine Whip!" Sora ordered. Meganium stretches her vines towards Lycanroc, but Bart wasn't gonna have it.

"Lycanroc! Counter!" Bart ordered. Lycanroc's body glows in an orange aura and the vines smacks Meganium in the face. "Now use Accelerock!" Lycanroc darts itself towards Megnium and strikes Meganium hard.

"Meganium! Petal Blizzard!" Sora ordered. Meganium fires a flurry of flower petals right towards the wolf Pokémon.

"Lycanroc! Dodge and use Stone Edge!" Bart ordered. Lycanroc jumps in the air and sends out a trail of stones pointing up and glowing blue.

"Meganium! Try to dodge it! Hurry!" Sora called out. The herb Pokémon runs to her left, but the stones came too fast and they quickly caught up to her. "Petal Blizzard again!" Meganium fires the same flurry of flower petals and they scatter all around.

"Another flow of flower petals," Gajeel deadpanned

"So pretty," Asuka said, catching some of the petals.

"You're telling me," Scootaloo said.

"What is he planning to do?" Romeo asked.

"He must be planning to throw Lycanroc off guard just by firing Petal Blizzard right at it," Lillie stated.

"And with so many flower petals, Lycanroc won't be able to block with Counter; pretty clever," Kiawe said.

"Your boyfriend sure is a smart one, Kairi," Lucy said.

"Sure is," Kairi agreed.

"Toge, Toge, Togepi," Togepi chirped.

"Pichu," the Shiny Pichu chirped.

"Pichu," the Spiky-eared Pichu chirped.

Bart knew Sora was trying something to throw Lycanroc off guard, but he wasn't gonna have it. He took out Lycanroc's Pokéball and calls Lycanroc back inside. Once Lycanroc was inside, he takes out another Pokéball and threw it.

"Go! Charizard!" Bart shouted. The Pokéball opens and his Charizard roars upon entry. Sora knew Meganium is weak against Fire Type attacks, so he decided to switch with Feraligatr just to play it safe. Once Meganium was inside her Pokéball, Sora took out Feraligatr's Pokéball.

"Go! Feraligatr!" Sora shouted. The Pokéball opens and Feraligatr lets out a loud roar as well.

"Good choice for switching Meganium for Feraligatr on Sora's part," Lillie said.

"Especially since Feraligatr has the advantage being a Water Type Pokémon," Sophocles said.

"That one is pretty obvious since water puts out fire anyway," Rainbow Dash said.

"Indeed. How does Bart hope to win against Sora now?" Rarity asked.

"Bart might have a way. Where we're from the phrase is there's more than one way to skin a cat," Sophocles said.

"Skin a cat?" Fluttershy gasped.

The yellow pegasus and exceeds all glare at the Electric Type trainer with concern by his choice of words.

"I didn't mean that literally," Sophocles said in his defense.

"Word of advice: don't just anything about skinning animals around an animal-loving pony like Fluttershy," Starlight said.

"Or to any of us for that matter," Carla added.

"I think he meant Bart has some other tricks up his sleeve about how to deal with Water Types, right?" Hapu asked.

"Of course I did," Sophocles said.

"You mean Fire Type Pokémon like Charizard can beat Water Type Pokémon like Feraligatr?" Twilight asked surprised.

"If given the right attacks, they might," Lillie said.

"Charizard! Thunder Punch!" Bart ordered. "Charizard's fist emits electricity and heads towards Feraligatr.

"Feraligatr! Ice Fang!" Sora ordered. Feraligatr waited for Charizard to get in proper reach and landed an icy bite on Charizard's arm. Feraligatr held right on, but Charizard starts using Thunder Punch to get Feraligatr to let go of its arm. Feraligatr felt the shocks, but it wasn't going to be enough to get him to let go of Charizard. One more punch was enough to force Feraligatr to let go.

"Charizard! Shadow Claw!" Bart ordered. Charizard's claws emits a shadowy aura and heads towards the crocodilian Pokémon.

"Feraligatr! Block it!" Sora called out. Feraligatr grabs Charizard by the claws and both had held on to the best of their abilities. "Water Gun!" Feraligatr fires Water Gun right into Charizard's face. "Now use Slash!" Feraligatr swipes his claws onto Charizard.

"Don't take that laying down! Dragon Pulse!" Bart ordered. Charizard forms a dragon-like aura and sends it right towards Feraligatr, but he wasn't gonna have it.

"Dodge it!" Sora called out. Feraligatr moves out of the way before the attack could strike at Feraligatr. "Water Gun again!" Feraligatr fires Water Gun and heads right towards Charizard.

"Dodge and use Blast Burn!" Bart ordered. Charizard's body becomes engulfed with flames. Charizard sends the flames right towards Feraligatr and engulfs him in the fire. Everyone watching watched in awe as the flames were burning intensely. Once the flames had subsided, Feraligatr is seen still standing, but had some slight burns on him.

"Did you just see that? Still standing," Shining Armor said.

"Blast Burn is a way more powerful move than I thought," Kiawe said. "Even for a Fire Type attack, it dealt heavy damage onto Feraligatr."

"Feraligatr! Ice Fang!" Sora ordered. Feraligatr moved in towards Charizard with his fangs emitting ice and lands a bite onto Charizard.

"Why didn't Charizard just move out of the way before Feraligatr bite it?" Twilight asked.

"Because Charizard used Blast Burn, he won't be able to move after using it," Kairi said.

"Okay Feraligatr! Water Gun! Full power!" Sora ordered. Feraligatr fired a full powered Water Gun and it gives Charizard a pretty good hit. Once Feraligatr had ceased his attack, Charizard is still standing from that attack and is panting from the Blast Burn he used and the Water Gun he just took. Feraligatr was pretty tired as well. Both fully evolved Pokémon stared into each other and Charizard fell to the ground exhausted. Illima raises his right hand.

"Charizard is unable to battle! Feraligatr wins!" Illima announced. Bart calls back Charizard and Sora calls back Feraligatr seeing how tired he was. Bart took out another Pokéball and threw it.

"Come back right out, Lycanroc!" Bart shouted. The wolf Pokémon takes its stance as did when battling Meganium, but it wasn't finished yet. Sora takes out another Pokéball and throws it in the air.

"Back to action, Meganium!" Sora shouted. The Pokéball opens and Meganium comes right back out.

"He's sending Meganium back out?" Rarity asked.

"We've seen this before," Kairi said. Everyone all looked at her.

"You have?" Leo asked.

"Yes. Sora did the same thing to a trainer named Sally when he was in the finals of the Indigo Plateau," Kairi said. "He wants to finish what he started before. By using the same Pokémon against the same opponent."

"I remember that battle. Her Wigglytuff got hit pretty bad with Crobat's Cross Poison and she switched with her Wigglytuff for her Jynx," Mallow said.

"And that earned a double knockout when Jynx and Incineroar combined their attacks," Acerola said.

"Whoa," The Cutie Mark Crusaders all said.

"So, sending Meganium back out are you, Sora? It's not gonna be enough to take down my Lycanroc; not even Water, Fighting, Steel, and Ground Type can scare it away," Bart said.

"Meganium! Vine Whip!" Sora ordered. Meganium sends Vine Whip to smack the wolf Pokémon on the spot, but Bart saw through that one.

"Didn't you learn from the last time? My Lycanroc can block it with its Counter attack. Lycanroc! Counter!" Bart ordered. Lycanroc blocks the attack with Counter, but Sora saw right through that one.

"I did. Meganium!" Sora called out and Meganium jumps out of the way of her own attack and the vines returns right back to her.

"That was unexpected," Kiawe said.

"Meganium dodged her own attack?" Cadance asked.

"Just like Sora to try something new," Sophocles said.

"Ya mean he never tried that before?" Applejack asked.

"I would remember if he tried that one," Kairi said.

"No doubt about it," Leo said. "You've known him so long, it's only natural to know someone like I would know about my brothers."

"It helps doesn't it?" Kairi asked.

"It does," Leo said.

"Now Bart is gonna have to think of something new himself," Raph said.

"Lycanroc! Accelerock!" Bart ordered. Lycanroc charges towards Meganium as soon as she lands on the ground.

"Meganium! Body Slam!" Sora ordered. Meganium jumps in the air again and slams her body into Lycanroc pretty hard. Lycanroc was now paralyzed.

"Lycanroc's paralyzed! Now it won't be able to move so much," Lillie said.

"And what does that mean?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"Sora has a chance to finish off Lycanroc," Lana said.

"Go! Go! Go!" Pinkie cheered holding a pair of pink and white pom-poms. "Go, Sora, go, Sora, go!"

"Meganium! Petal Blizzard!" Sora ordered. Meganium fired Petal Blizzard and the wolf Pokémon was paralyzed and wasn't quick enough to dodge and got hit by the attack hard. Lycanroc had fallen to the ground, beaten. Illima raises his right hand.

"Lycanroc is unable to battle! Meganium wins!" Illima announced. The crowd starts to mumur just impressed how this battle was getting. And how Sora had managed to take down four of Bart's Pokémon. He calls back Lycanroc and pulls out his next Pokéball.

"Not bad, Sora. You already to take out more than half of my team. But my next two Pokémon are going to give you such a hard time. You ready for them?" Bart asked. Sora figured Bart was saving Duraludon and Melmetal for last, so he was expecting that any one of them are next. He had Larvitar and Typhlosion to deal with them since being Steel Types.

"I'm ready for anything for anything you can throw at me, Bart," Sora said.

"That's what I wanted to hear," Bart said. He throws his Pokéball. "Duraludon! Go!" The Pokéball opens and Duraludon enters the battle. Sora looked over to Meganium and he saw she wanted to battle against Duraludon depsite her attacks not being to be able to do much damage against Duraludon.

"If you wanna stay in this, then I'll support your decision, Meganium," Sora said.

"Is Sora seriously sticking with Meganium?!" Hapu exclaimed.

"Looks like it," Mina said.

"Is that a bad thing?" Lucy asked.

"It is for Sora because Steel and Dragon Type Pokémon are resistant to Grass and Normal Type attacks; and that's what Meganium has," Sophocles said.

"I think it's because Meganium wants to battle against Duraludon," Kairi said. Everyone looked at her. "We all saw how much of a stubborn streak she had from when we first met her; and she didn't give up even once, so I doubt Meganium is going to give up now."

"I'm not surprised, because she always did have that stubborn streak to her," Acerola said.

"Meganium! Petal Blizzard!" Sora ordered. Meganium fired another flurry of flower petals and headed right towards Duraludon, but it just stood its ground, taking the attack. Duraludon was taking very little damage from Petal Blizzard, but not too much.

"Duraludon! Metal Burst!" Bart ordered. Duraludon's body starts glowing. It forms a ball of energy and sends it right towards Meganium. She got hit hard and Meganium got knocked out from the attack. Illima raises his left hand.

"Meganium is unable to battle! Duraludon wins!" Illima announced.

"Bart had finally took one of Sora's Pokémon. Incredible," Erza said impressed.

"About time, because it was getting just plain one-sided," Gray said.

"But knowing Sora, he'll make a big bounce when he get into a corner," Kiawe said.

"What do you mean by that?" Natsu asked.

"Just watch and find out," Mallow said.

Sora takes out another Pokéball and threw it in the air.

"Go for it, Typhlosion!" Sora shouted. Typhlosion comes out and flames flares from his neck. "Typhlosion! Flame Wheel!" Typhlosion rolls into a ball of fire and heads towards Duraludon.

"Duraludon! Breaking Swipe!" Bart ordered. Duraludon swings its tail and strikes Typhlosion hard. "Dragon Claw!" Duraludon slashes at Typhlosion with its claws giving off a purple aura.

"Flamethrower!" Sora ordered. Typhlosion fired Flamethrower and Duraludon took the hit, but it wasn't even making Duraludon slow down. Duraludon starting glowing again and Sora knew what was coming next. "Cease fire, Typhlosion!" He did stop, it was too late.

"Metal Burst!" Bart ordered. Duraludon fired Metal Burst and it struck Typhlosion hard and he was knocked out. Illima raises his left hand.

"Typhlosion is unable to battle! Duraludon wins!" Illima announced.

"And makes two Sora lost," Raph said.

"Poor Sora," Fluttershy said, sadly.

"That's not gonna stop him," Lana said.

"No," Mina said, shaking her head.

"Why not?" Sweetie Belle asked.

"Just like we said, he always bounces back," Acerola said.

Sora calls back Typhlosion and he figured he could tire out Duraludon for a bit before knocking it out. He still had Pikachu, Feraligatr, Larvitar, and Meltan to deal with it. He made his choice and threw it.

"Back to action, Larvitar!" Sora shouted. The Pokéball opens and Larvitar re-enters the battle.

"You should know Rock Type Pokémon are vulnerable to Steel Types, don't you?" Bart scoffed.

"Yeah, but you should know Steel Types are vulnerable to Ground Types as well," Sora countered.

"That I do," Bart said. Duraludon glares at Larvitar and huffs quite hostility towards the rock shed Pokémon. Sora remembered the Pokédex stating Duraludon gaving a rivalry with Tyranitar and knew that's what Larvitar evolved into after evolving from Pupitar.

"Why is Duralu-ludony looking at Larvitarty like that?" Pinkie asked.

"I think it's because of the rivalry with Tyranitar it has," Lillie said.

"What do you mean?" Shining Armor asked.

"There are some Pokémon that shares a fierce rivalry with one another over trivial things such as territory or for food; but there are some that have these sorts of rivalries since the dawn of history," Lillie said.

"You mean there are Pokémon that can go at it just like dogs and cats?" Scootaloo asked.

"This is amazing!" Twilight said, taking notes. Shining Armor and Cadance both laughed, not surprised seeing her being so studious.

"Duruladon! Breaking Swipe!" Bart ordered. Duruladon walks towards Larvitar and starts to swing its tail at Larvitar, but Sora had an ace up his sleeve.

"Larvitar! Dodge it quickly!" Sora called out. Larvitar dodges Duraludon's attack just by jumping into the left.

"Don't let it get away! Dragon Claw!" Bart ordered. Duraludon comes right at Larvitar again, but he manages to avoid Duruladon's claws. Larvitar eventually gets hit by one swipe, but he manages to regain his posture. "Breaking Swipe again!" Duraludon swings its tail towards Larvitar once again, but Larvitar manages to avoid the attack. Sora's plan was working perfectly; he saw Duraludon was starting to get exhausted from those attacks.

"This is great. Duraludon is starting to get tired. Larvitar may be small, but he's pretty fast," Sora said in his thoughts.

"Larvitar is just dodging from left to right," Lucy said.

"Aye," Happy said.

"Is Larvitar trying to run away? Gajeel asked.

"No," Kairi said. Everyone looked at her again. "Sora must be trying to tire out Duraludon. He must have figured out brute force wasn't enough to get through his steel defense, so he figured that he should tire him out."

"Of course! Instead of relying on sheer strength, he uses speed to immobilize his larger opponent. Such cunning brilliance," Pantherlily said.

"Duruladon! Dragon Claw!" Bart ordered. Duraludon tried to swipe at Larvitar again with his claws, but Larvitar manges to dodge each of Duraludon's attacks. Sora saw how exhausted the alloy Pokémon was getting. At last, he saw an opportunity to strike.

"Larvitar! Dark Pulse!" Sora ordered. Larvitar fired Dark Pulse and it struck Duruladon in the face, taking a serious hit. "Rock Slide!" Larvitar strikes Duruladon with a barrage of rocks and strikes Duruladon hard on the side. His body was starting to get a few dents on the side. "Now use Earthquake!" Larvitar shakes the ground, and Duraludon has trouble keeping his balance and falls to the ground. "Wrap it up with Dark Pulse!" Larvitar jumps in the air and forms a ball of dark energy and sends it towards Duraludon, but he wasn't calling it quits just yet.

"Duraludon! Fire your Steel Beam!" Bart ordered. Duraludon fired Steel Beam and it strikes Larvitar hard and sends him flying in the air. Larvitar lands back on the ground beaten. Duruladon manges to get back up and starts panting. Illima raises his left hand.

"Larvitar is unable to battle! Duraludon wins!" Illima announced.

"Larvitar just got blasted with that Steel Beam," Sophocles said.

"It doesn't matter, because Sora manages to tire Duraludon out. Looks like his plan worked," Hapu said.

"Bart must have had Duraludon use what half of energy it had left to fire that attack," Donnie said.

"And just how it looks right now, it doesn't look like it has much juice left," Raph said.

"Now Sora has the edge to win it," April said. Sora calls back Larvitar and he smiles.

"Get some rest right now, Larvitar. You've earned it; especially after tiring Duraludon like I wanted you to," Sora said. He puts it away and he pulls out Feraligatr's Pokéball and threw it. "Go! Feraligtar!" The Pokéball opens and Feraligatr roars upon re-entry. "I know you're tired from that battle with Charizard, but I need you to hold on a little longer. Superpower!" Feraligatr's body glows in a light blue aura and charges towards Duraludon.

"Metal Burst!" Bart ordered. Duraludon prepares to use it again, but Feraligatr's Superpower had overwhelmed Duraludon and brought him down for the count. Illima raises his right hand.

"Duraludon is unable to battle! Feraligatr wins!" Illima announced.

"Bart just has one left to use," Acerola said.

"Dude," Mikey said.

Everyone watched on as Bart calls back his Duraludon and takes out an Ultra Ball. He held it in his hand for a moment before taking in a deep breath.

"Okay, it comes down to this," Bart said. He prepares to throw his Ultra Ball in the air. "The most powerful Pokémon on my team; be prepared for what is coming." He threw his Ultra Ball in the air and it spins in the air. "Come on out, Melmetal!" The Ultra Ball opens and Melmetal flexed its metallic musles upon entry.

"Melmetal," Lana said.

"I knew he was saving Melmetal for last," Kairi said.

"I just find it hard to believe that's what Meltan evolves into," Sophocles said.

"Same here. I was surprised how it reminded of Meltan," Mallow said.

"Yeah," Mina said.

"And I think Sora is going to have a hard time with Melmetal," Hapu said.

"I think so, since Ferligatr is more tired than a moose carrying a huge boulder with its antlers," Applejack said.

"Feraligtar! Superpower!" Sora ordered.

"Memetal! You use Superpower too!" Bart ordered. Melmetal came towards Feraligatr as Feraligatr came towards Feraligatr, but Meltmetal was quick to inflict the attack on the crocodilian Pokémon and knocks him out. Illima raises his left hand.

"Feraligatr is unable to battle! Melmetal wins!" Illima announced. Sora call back Feraligatr and he looks over to Pikachu.

"I don't expect you to win, Pikachu, but I do expect you to tire out Melmetal just like Larvitar did with Duraludon. You game?" Sora asked.

"Pika," Pikachu said.

"I already know you'll do your best, buddy," Sora said, smiling. "Go! Pikachu!" Pikachu ran to the battlefield. A lot of people watching the battle were cooing over how adorable Pikachu is. Even Sherry and her cousin were affected.

"Oh, what a little cutie!" Shelia said.

"Those little red cheeks just makes it even cuter!" Sherry said. Bart chuckled as he saw through Sora's scheme.

"He must be planning to use the speed versus power strategy just like the last time. I'll just have Melmetal follow Pikachu move for move," Bart said in his thoughts. He ordered out loud. "Melmetal! Double Iron Bash!" Melmetal began to swing its body around around and sways its arms about. Melmetal spins around and heads towards Pikachu.

"Pikachu! Dodge it with Quick Attack!" Sora ordered. Pikachu uses his speed attack to avoid Melmetal's signature attack. Melmetal stretched its arms out and Pikachu manages to dodge the attack, but Melmetal was getting more ruthless with each attempt.

"Pikachu is dodging Melmetal's attacks, but Melmetal isn't even tired yet," Kiawe said.

"I wonder how long Pikachu would keep up the speed?" Starlight asked.

"Hopefully long enough," Lana said.

Melmetal kept swinging at Pikachu and then he got struck by the hex nut hand and Pikachu gets sent flying in the air.

"Pikachu!" Sora shouted. "Hang in there!" Pikachu manages to flip and land on the ground like a cat landing on its feet. "That was great! Use Thunderbolt!" Pikachu fires Thunderbolt and it gives Melmetal quite a shock. Many of the spectators were stunned to see what electricity he let out and how it was able to shock Melmetal.

"Don't take that laying down, Melmetal! Fire your Flash Cannon!" Bart ordered. Melmetal fired Flash Cannon and Pikachu manages to dodge the attack using his speed. But, Pikachu got caught in the debris and fell back to the ground. "Now use Double Iron Bash!" Melmetal spun around again and swung its arm to strike him, but Pikachu avoids Melmetal's first attack only to get hit by the second attack. Melmetal felt its body struck by static electricity and fell on its knee. Kairi, Togepi, the Pichu, the rest of the Alolan nine, the Ninja Turtles, April, the ponies, and the Fairy Tail wizards were certain Sora was close to winning, but the large hex nut Pokémon was still standing.

"That was so close," Kiawe said.

"I knew Melmetal is tough, but it's tougher than I thought," Mallow said.

"The same can be said with me, Mallow. That Melmetal is really dishing it out and so is Pikachu," Donnie said.

"The way Pikachu was running around, it kinda like the way Yoda fought in those Star Wars movies," Mikey said.

"Pikachu must have done a lot of laps, because the speed is pretty awesome, but Pikachu is nowhere near as fast as me," Rainbow Dash said.

"Melmetal! Superpower!" Bart ordered. Melmetal's body glows light blue and stretched one of its arms to strike Pikachu, but he manages to avoid the attack just by rolling to the left. "Don't let Pikachu get away!" Melmetal swung both its arms and Pikachu manages to dodge each blow. this was tiring out both Pikachu and Melmetal in the process. The plan to make Melmetal exhausted was working the same as as Duraludon. Bart said in his thoughts, "I don't believe it! I saw right through his plan and he's still getting the best of Melmetal's size and speed. I have to put an end to this now!" Bart spoke out loud, "Melmetal! Thunderbolt!" Melmetal fires Thunderbolt and sends it right towards Pikachu.

"Pikachu! You use Thunderbolt too!" Sora ordered. Both Pokémon fired their electric attacks and they hold it back against each other. Not one was overpowering the other. It kept up until an explosion occured and both Pokémon were taken by the blast. Everyone watching shielded their eyes from the smoke. Once the smoke had cleared, both Pikachu and Melmetal were still standing and they were panting heavily. They stared into each other while panting. Pikachu fell to the ground out of exhaustion while Melmetal was still standing. Illima raises his left hand.

"Pikachu is unable to battle! Melmetal wins!" Illima announced. Sora walked up to Pikachu and picks him up in his arms.

"You okay, Pikachu?" Sora asked with concern.

"Pikachu," Pikachu responded.

"You did great. And you tired out Melmetal like I wanted you to," Sora said.

"Pika," Pikachu said.

"You should rest up for a while, you've earned it," Sora said.

"Pika," Pikachu said.

Sora retook his position as Kairi comes and takes Pikachu in her arms. She rejoined the others as Lucy was holding Togepi. Fluttershy held Pikachu in her forelegs and gently patting him on the head. Sora tokk out his last Pokéball and he threw it in the air.

"Go! Meltan!" The Pokéball opens and Meltan comes right out. Meltan spins its headupon entry. Many of the spectators were dumbfounded by the size of Meltan.

"That thing is so very puny," one man said.

"No joke. How is that little shrimp going to overpower that big thing?" Another man asked.

Many more people were voicing their opionions, but Bart wasn't even phased by the sudden appearence of this tiny Pokémon one bit. He remembered not to underestimate his opponents no matter how weak or how small they looked, because even he knew so much power can come from small packages. It was that and he noticed how tired out it looked from that battle with Pikachu; plus from the paralysis.

"Melmetal, don't think it'll be an easy win. Do what you can for a quick win," Bart said. Melmetal nodded and got into position for battle. Meltan looked at its evolved form and tears form in its eyes, wondering if it could be as cool as Melmetal. "Melmetal! Flash Cannon!"

"Meltan! You use Flash Cannon too!" Sora ordered. Meltan and Melmetal fired Flash Cannon and both had collided with each other, resulting in a small explosion.

"Melmetal! Superpower!" Bart ordered.

"Meltan! Dodge and use Headbutt!" Sora called out. Meltan charged towards Meltan and swun its arm down on Meltan, but it dodged the attack and landed a Headbutt on Melmetal's arm. "Now use Thunderbolt!" Meltan fired Thunderbolt and it gave Melmetal a shock on the head.

"Melmetal! Double Iron Bash!" Bart ordered. Melmetal swung its body around to deliever the blow to Meltan. Meltan jumps onto Melmetal's arm and crawled around. Melmetal tries to bat Meltan off, but no such luck. Meltan crawls around like a hamster in someone's clothing and Melmetal tries to shake Meltan off.

"Can someone tell me what the hell is going on?" Gajeel asked.

"You got me, Metallica," Raph said.

"Meltan must be getting to Meltan just by crawling around on it," Kairi said.

"I don't think Melmetal likes that," Fluttershy said.

"And I don't think Bart likes that either," Starlight said.

"Melmetal! Thunderbolt! Shock Meltan to get it off!" Bart ordered.

"Meltan! Harden!" Sora ordered. Melmetal used Thunderbolt on itself while Meltan Hardens its body and takes the damage as its eye forms into a star. Melmetal ceases its attack, but Meltan is still on it; it's hurt, but still holding on.

"Meltan is still holding on just after taking that hit; even if it used its own attack on itself," Bart said. Melmetal was hurt, but still standing.

"Melmetal used its own attack on itself?! Why?!" Twilight exclaimed.

"Just to get Meltan off," Sophocles said.

"I think Meltan took some damage too," Juvia said.

"I think you're right, but it looks like Meltan can keep going longer than Melmetal can," Lillie said.

Melmetal swings its hex nut hand on Meltan only to dodge and jump on its head. Melmetal swings its hand to smack Meltan off, but it jumps in the air to avoid it and it hits itself in the face.

"Okay Meltan! Headbutt!" Sora ordered. Meltan headbutted Melmetal on the top on the head as fast as a bullet and it brings Melmetal onto its knees. "Now fire a full powered Flash Cannon!" Meltan built up some energy before it let out a powerful Flash Cannon and strikes it hard in the face and Melmetal started to fall on the back slowly. Everyone were amazed by how a tiny little creature was able to beat something so huge. Illima raises his right hand.

"Melmetal is unable to battle! Meltan wins! Sora wins the battle!" Illima announced. Everyone all cheered to Sora for his victory. The Fairy Tail wizards were among them for Sora's victory. Natsu grins and he went up to Sora.

"That was so very awesome, Sora! You gave it what you had and you didn't give up even once! Everything you threw is a sign that you're Fairy Tail material!" Natsu praised.

"Aye! Meltan might be puny, but it was still pretty cool!" Happy added.

Bart walked over to Melmetal and helped it up on its feet.

"You okay, Melmetal?" Bart asked. Melmetal nodded sorely. "Don't feel bad about losing. You gave it everything you had and I'll always be proud of you. I can guarantee it."

Suddenly, Discord had appeared before everyone and he applauded to Sora for his victory. He wore face paint matching Sora's clothes and wore a giant foam finger.

"Bravo! Bravo! Woo!" Discord cheered. "Yeah!" Sora, Kairi, the Fairy Tail wizards, Ninja Turtles, and April were surprised to see a creature suddenly appear before them. "That was totally epic! I knew you were gonna win it!"

"Discord!" The ponies all exclaimed.

"Why didn't you just teleport us back when you had the chance?!" Spike exclaimed.

"Just wanted to see the battle between Sora and Bart. I was watching the battle closely and I was at the edge of my seat," Discord said. "So at the edge of my seat, I nearly ran out of popcorn."

"Can you send us all back to our worlds, Discord?" Sora asked.

"Of course I can. But I only want your autograph to make it complete," Discord said, taking out an autograph book. Sora signed a page on it. Sora turned to the Fairy Tail wizards and they all smiled. Sora looked at the ponies, Spike and the Ninja Turtles. He even looked over to Bart.

"Hey Bart," Sora said, walking up to him. "Why don't you come with me, Kairi, and my other friends in our journey? We could always use one more." Bart smiled at the offer and shook his head.

"Thanks for the offer, Sora. But I already have my own journey. And maybe I'll stick around here for a while. But I'm hoping maybe one day we can see each other again and I can challenge you into another battle," Bart said. Sora nods.

"You can count on it, Bart," Sora said. The two trainers both shook hands and promised each other another Pokémon battle when they cross paths again, somehow. Bart took one last look at the group and took his leave. Sora, Kairi, the Pokémon, and the Alolan nine were getting ready to set off. The ponies and Spike were bringing back some souvenirs and the Ninja Turtles were having some pizza to go. They got everything ready for their departure as Discord had opened three doorways for each world. One was of Sora's earth, exactly where they were before entering Ultra Space. The second door is of Equestria in the Castle of Friendship. On the other side is Sunburst and Flurry Heart waiting for them to get back. And finally is the Ninja Turtles home in the sewers. The groups took some looks at each other.

"So, this is it right?" Sora asked.

"It looks like it," Twilight said.

"I guess we knew we would have to depart for home at some point," Leo added.

"Yeah, that's true, Leo," Sora said. He smiled and he shook Leonardo's hand and he gave Sora a noogie on his head. The Cutie Mark Crusaders went up to the Alolan nine and they hugged them and they hugged the fillies back. Spike a smile and shook Illima's hand. Pinkie gave Mikey a cupcake and Mikey gave Pinkie a pizza slice with candy and popcorn on it and they both ate what they were given. As they all got ready to depart for their worlds, Lucy walked up to them.

"If you're heading off for home, I guess I can give you all a little something; apparently three things," Lucy said.

"What?" Sora asked. Lucy raised her finger into the air.

"When a wizard leaves the Fairy Tail guild, there are three rules you must live by!" Lucy started.

"Three rules?" Kairi asked.

"The first rule: never share any sensitive information about the guild to anyone just as long you shall live. The second rule: you must never contact any client you have worked for while in the guild for your own personal gain. And the third and final rule: although our paths must stray; promise to live the rest of your lives to the fullest. That means you must treat everyday as it was the last day of your lives," Lucy instructed. "Never forget your Fairy Tail friends. Treasure them just as long as you shall live."

The groups were astonished by how welcomed they all felt. Even though they never officially joined the guild, but they knew they would miss each other by leaving.

The Fairy Tail wizards gave them the farewell ceremony.

"Pika," Pikachu said.

"I wish you luck on your journey and pray for dreams to become a reality," Lucy said.

"Thanks Lucy. It's just hard to say goodbye to the new friends we made in just a short time," Sora said.

"It's not goodbye, Sora," Lucy corrected him. "I know we will meet again." Sora smiled and she hugged both Sora and Kairi tight. "Just take care of each other." Sora nodded. The groups said their goodbyes to each other and returned to their own worlds.

The ponies had arrived back home in Equestria and Flurry Heart went over to her parents and they embraced her. Discord even teleported back just in time.

"What happened?" Sunburst asked.

"Sunburst, it's a very long story," Twilight said.

In the New York sewers in their world, the Ninja Turtles and April returned home and Splinter had just entered the room.

"My sons! What has happened?! Where have you been?" Splinter asked.

"I know we have a lot to explain, father," Leo said. "We just don't expect you to believe it when we tell you."

Right in Sora's world, the group had finally came back and they all smiled having to see the familiar scene.

"Exactly where we left off," Sora said.

"But, how long were we gone? The last time this happened, we were only gone for a few hours," Lillie said. Sora accessed his Pokédex to check the date and time.

"Just in three days. I guess the dimensional times difference didn't occur when we got into Ultra Space," Sora said.

"There must be different laws," Sophocles said.

"I'm just glad that we're back," Hapu said.

"Me too," Mina said.

Sora had acessed the app on his Pokédex and exchanged Meganium and Feraligatr, for Pineco and Heracross. He handed it over to Kairi and she exchanged Abra, Magby, Tyrogue, and Machop for Seel, Elekid, Bounsweet, and Rockruff. Sora, Kairi, the Pokémon, and the Alolan nine made a stop to camp for the night, but not too far, Team Rocket had finally set up the ultimate trap.

"There! It is done!" Jessie said.

"The ultimate trap," James added.

"A trap so ingenious, we couldn't have done it better ourselves," Meowth said. Wobbufett popped up.

"Wobbufett!" Wobbufett said.

It turns out to be a bathhouse for Pokémon. They had a Meowth enjoying a bubbly bubble bath.

"Just when the twerps sees how filthy their Pokémon must be, they will not be able to resist letting them have a bath to wash away all the dirt and grime," Jessie said.

"A clever and well thought out plan, Jessie!" James added.

"And when those kids are waiting for their Pokémon to be squeaky clean, we can be out of there faster than a Doduo in a marathon," Meowth said. As Team Rocket had cheered, a Fearow flew onto the sign and pecked on it, causing it to collapse. The Fearow flew away and they turned to see the place in shambles. "Should have guessed this would happen."

"This is all your fault, James! You and your ideas!" Jessie accused.

"Me?! What the hell do you mean?! It was your stupid ass plan!" James barked at her.

"I'm with Jimmy here! It was all your idea!" Meowth agreed.

"Wobbu, Wobbu, Wobbu!" Wobbufett added. Jessie glares at the patient Pokémon.

"Who the hell side are you even on?!" Jessie hissed, calling back Wobbufett. Team Rocket continues arguing as a familiar figure approaced them. It was Rasputin the Mad Thief.

"Enough!" Rasputin shouted. The Team Rocket memebers stopped their arguing when they all turned to see Rasputin once again. "You three! With me now!" Not needing to be told twice, they followed him back to Mahogany Town for an assignment.

Over to Sora, Kairi, and the Alolan nine, the couple sat and gazed at the starlight.

"It's so beautiful, isn't it?" Kairi asked.

"Yeah it is," Sora agreed. "Not as beautiful as you are." Kairi was moved and she kissed him on the lips and he kissed her back. They broke the kiss and then Kairi thought of something.

"Wanna know something, Sora? I kinda miss them," Kairi said.

"If you mean Lucy, Natsu, Leo, Twilight and the others, then I guess I do too," Sora said.

"You guess?" Kairi raised a brow.

"Okay, okay, I really do. Those turtles were awesome and the ponies were nice; and not to mention Lucy had been a good hostess to us; and those Fairy Tail wizards were just as awesome, but I gotta admit, they made us feel so welcomed," Sora said.

"Sure did. I know we just got back, but I can't help but wonder what they're up to?" Kairi asked.

"Probably doing what they were doing before we met them, but we kinda left some memories behind," Sora said. "I know I won't forget them." Kairi leans on Sora's shoulder and he puts his arm around her shoulder.

"I won't forget them either. But, what do you think how it'll look if we tell Lusamine about our experience and our encounter with Guzzlord?" Kairi asked.

"I'm going to admit, I haven't even come to close to thinking of that, but I'm sure we can think of something," Sora gulped at the thought of Lusamine chewing him out. He knew that'll be a bridge he'll have to cross when he comes to it; but he wasn't going to worry about it for right now.

"Do you think the others have already fell asleep? I think we should do that too," Kairi suggested.

"Not a bad idea, Kairi," Sora agreed. The couple went into the tent they were sharing with Lillie, Mallow, and Lana and kissed each other on the lips before they drifted off into sleep.

All's well that ends well, but what is Team Rocket up to in Mahogany Town? What kind of diabolical scheme could be going through those evil minds of theirs? Just wait and see until the next chapter.
