For the joy of battles

by PenJunior

In a pokemon battle, you have to give it your all. And that's what Ash intends to do. After winning the Alola, Ash aims to defeat every elite 4 and champion he knows. So, join in.(Initial 10 chapters are one-shots as prep for this, so the quest starts from 11th chapter.) [Discontinued][Indefinite Hiatus]

14. Apologizes to all, story ends

Yes, this series is discontinued. Not on hiatus but discontinued. I don't give false hope, so let me get to point.

This series is my first multi-chapter fanfic of sorts, so I didn't know the baggage behind writing only battle scenes. Writing battle isn't hard, I just research their pokemon, pokedex entries, natures, movepools, anime exclusive movements that exist and could exist. But the main problem is that none of these battles have any excitement and meaning behind them. I guess that is why I started including some story snippets in my initial chapters, but now I ran out. I am terribly sorry for all those who have been following this and reading this. I just understood this after working on Siebold chapter, the battle with Wikstorm was long and extensive but it didn't have any life, that spark I see in some poke-anime battle.

Thanks for following all along, but I am discontinuing this fic. I could keep it on Haitus, but even I too don't know if I can come back in a few months and that would be cruel to you guys. I understand if you would be angry, don't understand me. Afterall, I am the selfish one who dragged you in, so very sorry.
