AN: Mew Games have arrived!

K: Oh no.

SV: It really won't be that bad.

P: It won't. Until Trix decides to use some ideas from the games to prank us.

T: That's a good idea! Thanks sis!

K: We don't own Pokemon, now go have fun reading!

Chapter 13.

Ash, Mew, Crimson and Pikachu all landed in a huge field. They looked around and saw it was bordered by mountains on one side, and an ocean along the other. Crimson flinched as she saw the huge waves crashing on the shore, but they were far enough away that the spray didn't get anywhere near the four. The two 'humans' then changed to their Pokemon forms, and the two Mew floated next to them, grinning.

'Whoa! Where are we?' Pikachu gasped, looking around wildly.

'It's another dimension!' Ash answered.

'Yep! I used this place to play games with Ashy when he was little, but I haven't had much use for it recently.' Mew said, twirling around. 'So now I'm going to use this for training you guys now instead!' Ash looked a little worried.

'What do you think we should do to train?' He asked.

'Well, Pikachu aren't really known for their defensive power, and isn't too offensive either. For now I think that we should just work on offensive this time, and we can work on defence tomorrow.' Mew waved a paw, and the two starters were surrounded in a dome.

'Errr, Miss Mew?' Pikachu said, looking worriedly at the dome. 'What are we going to do?'

'Well, me and Ashy are going to race around the island a few dozen times, but you two are going to be fighting.' Mew grinned somewhat evilly. 'Have fun!' Mew grabbed Ash's tail with her own and teleported them. Crimson looked at Pikachu.

'Well, I hope that you can deal with Rock types.' Crimson told him.

'Not really, no.' He replied, looking around worriedly. 'Why's that?'

'I've done this bit of training before, over the last two days that I've been with Miss Mew.' She grinned at the worried mouse. 'It normally involves me going solo against a group of Rock types. Miss Mew makes it easy when I'm alone, but because there's two of us there'll be more Pokemon attacking.' Before Pikachu could reply, the dome expanded, getting close to the mountains before stopping. Platforms appeared, floating in the air, and Crimson lept to one. 'Get up friend! You don't want to be down there when the first wave hits!' A rumbling echoed from the right, and both Pokemon looked to see a group of Tyrunt and Cranidos charging them.

'Ohhhh boy.' Pikachu said. 'That is a lot of fossils.'

'Yeah. I'd say get up here now.'

'I think that's smart.' Pikachu jumped onto the platform next to Crimson. 'Any idea what these are?'

'The ones with the blue heads are Cranidos, and the small T-Rex's are Tyrunt. Tyrunt is part Dragon, but Cranidos is purely Rock.'

'When did you learn that?'

'The first day I was here, Miss Mew gave me a crash course in Rock types. The first gym in Kanto is that type. You'll probably get something similar later on.' The Charmander stopped talking of a second, glancing down into the pit of fossil Pokemon. She shot a somewhat small Ember at them, which knocked a few out.

'Did… did you just knock out those Rock types with a fire attack?' Pikachu asked, confused.

'Yeah, so?' Crimson shrugged. 'Miss Mew makes it easier when we're young. It'll get harder as we grow more powerful. Here, add a Thundershock to my Ember when I fire.' Confused, Pikachu used Thunder Shock, and Ember wrapped around it. The result crashed into the Pokemon, knocking most of them out. The rest were finished by a couple of Embers.

'That was cool. Where'd you pick you that one?'

'Miss Mew liked to travel a lot before she got Master Ash.' Crimson shrugged. 'She told me she saw it from a trainer with a Dratini. The Dratini had tons of control over its attacks, and was able to use both Flamethrower and Thunderbolt at the same time, causing a more powerful version of that.'

'Wow!' Pikachu said. 'That sounds awesome! Do you think we can meet that trainer?'

'That isn't likely. They're a lot older that me, and I think they're in Sinnoh for a holiday.' Both starters jumped, and turned to see the young blue Mew floating behind them.

'Wha? How long have you been there?' Pikachu asked his trainer.

'Just got here.' He replied. 'But yeah, the trainer Mom told you about lives in Pallet, and their team is pretty cool. We might be able to make some combo's like they did.'

'You know them?'

'They live pretty close to us. Like I said, they're on holiday at the moment.' Ash looked at the fossil Pokemon below them. 'I think you're done, by the way.'

'As do I.' Mew said, teleporting in. 'Should we start on defense?'

'Hang on.' Ash focused for a moment, and opened a little viewing panel in the air, showing the outside area near their camp. The sun was still pretty high, so Ash closed the panel. 'Right. Let's try and get a stronger move for these two first. Maybe Iron Tail and Metal Claw. Then we can move on to the defensive.'

'Alright.' Mew replied. She was taking orders from her child, surprisingly. 'I can teach Metal Claw to Crimson. Are you going to deal with Pikachu?'

'Yep.' Ash transformed into a Pikachu himself, and Mew became a Charmeleon. The knocked out fossil Pokemon disappeared, and the barrier evaporated into the air. He looked to the little electric type while Mew went to Crimson. 'Right, so here's the basics of how it works…'

A few hours later, both young starters had mastered the new move.

'Good job guys!' Mew said happily, turning back to her normal form. 'That's sure to surprise anyone!'

'That's right. It isn't often that new trainers teach Pokemon these kind of moves.' Ash continued, transforming too. The blue Mew turned, once again opening a little portal. It was a few hours until evening. 'I think we should leave for now, and get moving to Viridian City.'

"Ok. Let's go. I'll pack the tent for you." Mew shifted to her form as Mia, and Ash turned human too. They flickered out of the warped dimension, and landed in a bush near the camp. Mia lead the way. "By the way, don't forget to call me Mia."

"Of course not." Ash said. Mia waved her hand, and the tent packed itself up, then teleported away. "Where did you send it?"

"Back to the training ground. I've changed it slightly, so there's a house on the mountain. We can keep our stuff there."

"What happens if we get human travelling companions?"

"I'll think of something. Remember, I'm the trickster with billions of years worth of practise. And I've been avoiding humans for just as long, I can make an explanation for this." Ash rolled his eyes.

"And I thought you had gotten better since you adopted me." He sighed. "Anyway, let's get going." He floated a map out of his bag, taking a look at it. One of the things he had learnt over the week of travelling to the middle of nowhere multiple times is reading a map. Because of this, he had several maps in his bag of all the different regions, which Mew had brought for him. Even though they had been teleporting to most of the places, they had been far enough away that they still had to fly at least part of the way. He turned until he was facing the right way, and placed the map in his bag again. "Right, it's this way." He said.

"Crimson, return for now." Mia said, pointing the ball at her Pokemon. "By the way, are you going to nickname Pikachu? Just in case we run into any others and he gets lost."

"Good idea." Ash thought for a moment. "How about Bolt?"

'I guess that's ok.' He shrugged. 'By the way, I'm staying out. I hate those ball things.'

"Sure thing bud. Let's go."

Chapter 14.

The two disguised legends walked along the path. Mia's eyes were glowing faintly as she used Psychic, looking around for humans and Pokemon. Ash broke the silence that had come over them.

"So, you plan to do the league as well?"

"Of course! I didn't choose to do this just to travel with you." She giggled. "I'd thought over this idea before." She continued, lowering her voice. "I've been thinking of doing this for about a century. Taking a human guise and becoming a trainer. It sounded fun."

"Why didn't you?"

"Well, I didn't think I'd be able to manage it. After all, every legendary has it's own job, so it was likely my duties would stop me from getting into the Pokemon League. I thought about being a Coordinator, because that's shorter, and it also is really creative, which is something I love, but the issue of training a team was still there. Even with warped dimensions and teleporting, I didn't think it would be safe to do it. There was also the fact that someone might figure out my real identity, even if that was unlikely."

"Didn't you say that Arceus had been against the idea of you travelling with me at first?"

"Yes, but this time I was determined. I had wanted to travel as a trainer for a century, and now my child was becoming one. It was a great reason to go too." Mia was about to say more, but was interrupted by a loud squawking, and a scream. All three looked over, and ran towards it without a word.

'What do you think that was?' Ash said telepathically, causing Bolt to jump slightly.

'It sounded like Spearow.' Mia replied. 'But the scream, I couldn't say.' Her eyes glowed much brighter as she used a more powerful scan. 'I can see a girl, not sure of her age, and a flock of Spearow. I think that she must have disturbed them. No Pokemon out, so she either doesn't have one, or they're all knocked out.'

'Right. Bolt, get ready. Most powerful Thundershock you can manage.'

'Crimson can help too. They can use that Flare Shock move from before.' Mia added, sending out her starter. 'Let's go.' She stopped her Psychic scan, letting the pink glow die down, and they burst through the trees. A ginger haired girl was surrounded by Spearow, like Mia had said. Crimson and Bolt fired their attacks, and the Flare Shock attack flash fried most of the attacking Pokemon. Mia ran over and helped the girl up, leaving Ash in command of both Pokemon.

'You get her out of here, ok?' Ash said to Mia.

'Of course. I'll be back in a minute.' She replied, helping the girl out of the area.

"Right. Can you two do that again?" He asked the starters. They responded by firing another Flare Shock, knocking out a few more, and causing the rest of them to flee. Mia had gotten quite far away in the meantime, helping the ginger haired girl away. Ash and the starters stayed where they were, ready to attack if the Pokemon came back. He closed his eyes for a moment, and reopened them filled with a blue glow. Glancing around with the Psychic scan active, Ash kept an eye out for the flock in case they came back. A crashing from behind alerted them to Mia's return.

"How did that go?" She asked. Ash lowed the scan and turned.

"Fine. Is that girl ok?"

"Yeah. I got her out of the way and told her to get going to Viridian. She should get there before the storm hits. We should go too." Ash nodded, and Mia returned Crimson again.

The three travelers didn't quite get to Viridian before the storm. Lightning crackled a bit away, and Mia looked over worriedly.

"I was hoping to avoid this."

"Oh well." Ash replied. "If we need too, we can just make a bubble to stay in."

"I guess so." Mia laughed slightly. "It really won't be much of a problem, will it?" Ash was about to answer, but a lot of flapping cut him off. Both 'humans' made another Psychic scan, and looked in the same direction.

'Looks like those Spearow are back.' Mia said.

'Bolt, can you and Crimson do another of those attacks? You can think a reply, we'll pick it up.'

I can try. The psychic's picked up Bolt's thought for his answer.

'We can't.' Mia interrupted. 'Rain, remember?'

'Oh right.' Ash blushed. 'Can we get rid of them with ThunderShock?'

'No need.' Mia said, looking at the sky with bright pink eyes. 'A friend of ours is here to help.' Ash was going to ask who, but the sound of a huge Pokemon made him look up too. A bright rose red flame burst out, hitting the flock and frying one of them. That one was knocked out, and the rest of the flock scattered, leaving as fast as they could.

"Huh." Ash said, looking at the sky as it started to clear. "Looks like the phoenix's are here."

'The… phoenix's?' Bolt said, confused. 'Who are they?'

"Friends of ours." Mia replied, searching the sky. Before Bolt could talk again, a gold and silver Pokemon glided down, perching next to them and folding its wings.

'Hello Ash.' It said, looking a him.

"Hello again Helina!" He replied, smiling. "What brings you here?" Ash had met the Ho-oh hybrid on the third day of visiting week, at the Tin Tower in Johto.

'We just got back from visiting Lena and the twins.' She said, bringing her head down to his level. Like the other hybrids, she was much smaller than the actual legend, but she was still much taller than the human forms of the others. 'You've started your journey, then?'

"Yep!" Ash said. "This is Bolt, my starter." He motioned to the Pikachu, who was staring at the shiny Ho-oh. "Bolt, this is Helina. I met her last week."

'I should not be surprised.' He shook his head. 'Is she like you?'

"Yeah. Any shiny legend is."

'Who's the other human?' Helina asked. 'She doesn't look very surprised to see me.'

"I'm Mia. At least, in this form." The Ho-oh looked at Mia strangely, and she undid her transform. She flew in a circle for a moment, the reapplied her human shape.

'Huh. Neat.' She said. 'Anyway, Meema and me need to be going. We need to get back to the Beast's.' She spread her wings, flapping gently to take off.

"Ok. We'll be sure to visit when we get to Johto!" Ash shouted, waving goodbye. The shiny bird hovered over them, and Helios flew over to her. Both waved a wing in farewell, and flew off, headed west, towards Johto. The others on the ground watched them fly away, and turned to go. Ash felt something land on his head, and reached up. Two feathers, one red and one gold, were in his hand.

"Rainbow Wings." Mia told him, already knowing what they were. "Helios and Helina must be leaving these as a gift. The human's have legends that if you see Ho-oh, you get granted eternal happiness."

"That's cool." Ash passed the feathers to Mia, who waved her hand in the air and conjured some string. She wrapped it a few times around the end of each feather, and handed the golden one to Ash. "What's with this?"

"May as well keep them as a good luck charm." Mia shrugged. "Oh, and I made a Psychic link on the string. It'll teleport back to you if stolen." Ash grinned, and both put them on as necklaces. "Let's get going. We might still get to Viridian before dark."

AN: Finally!

K: What's wrong?

T: Writer's block. Lot's and lot's of writer's block.

P: Trix made up most of the training, while I did the bit with the Ho-oh's!

K: I hope we didn't fry Shadow. She has other things to do.

SV: I'll be fine. Just give me a few days and a sketchpad or something. By the way, that Flare Shock comes from New Beginnings. As the team gets more Pokemon, I'll bring over a few of the other combo's, and maybe use them over there.

T: Wait, was that…?

P: Trixie, quiet! No spoilery things!

SV: Anyway, I'm drained, so I'll see you all later.
