I don't own Pokemon or the idea of this story which I got from Captain Buggles. I just own my OCs.

TMs will exist in this universe but instead of replacing older moves I will just add to the list like TM02 is still Razor Wind but Headbutt is TM57. I will put a list of TMs in this universe on my profile and I'll just make the HMs TMs as well.


James receives a Mime Jr from his grandparents.

Ashley is in a Pokémon Center getting psyched for his Battle Arena match when Scott calls to him from across the room. They talk for a few seconds, and Ashley vows to get his next Frontier Symbol.

At the Battle Arena, dozens of men are being trained in karate-style moves by Greta. For the next exercise, the group has to crouch with cups balanced on their heads and shoulders.

Meanwhile, Scott explains to Ashley group about Greta and two of her Pokémon, Medicham and Hariyama. He points out the similarity to two Fighting-type Gym Leaders, Brawly and Chuck. The group exits the Pokémon Center, but Ashley stops and contemplates Greta's Pokémon. Suddenly, he runs back into the Pokémon Center without any explanation.

Later, the group reaches the Battle Arena, and Ashley yells "Hello." This doesn't work, so Scott goes up and shouts "We wish to have a battle". The giant doors open, and Greta and the people she was training emerge. Ashley introduces herself and she and Greta get excited about the challenge. Suddenly, a giant roulette emerges from the ground that is meant to determine how many Pokémon will take part in the battle. Ashley pulls the roulette lever, and the spinner lands on two.

A gong rings, and Ashley and Greta prepare for their battle. The training group sits along the sidelines of the field, watching. Greta sends out Medicham and Hariyama, and Ash sends out Golurk and Snorlax, who he retrieved from Professor Oak. Scott observes that Ashley picked an odd type of Pokémon to use against Fighting types.

Golurk and Hariyama fight first. Golurk charges in with Shadow Punch which Hariyama blocks. Hariyama charges at Golurk, but Gourk jumps into the air and lands an Earthquake. Hariyama gets hurt and stunned so Golurk uses Dynamic Punch and Mega Punch. The Dynamic Punch knocks Hariyama back and the Mega Punch knocks out the Arm Thrust Pokemon.

Medicham jumps into play and shows off and easily defeating the lumbering Ghost/Ground type with multiple hits from Ice Punch. So Ash sends out Snorlax.

Greta tells Medicham to use Focus Punch, and Snorlax uses Protect. Greta orders another Focus Punch, and Ashley orders Hyper Beam. It misses, and Snorlax, hit, flies into the crowd of trainees.

The match continues, and Ashley tells Snorlax to use Ice Punch while Medicham is told to do the same thing. Snorlax is hit and freezes, making it immobile. Ashley suddenly remembers something and tells Snorlax to use Rest. It falls asleep, and Greta orders more Focus Punches to reach it through the ice. The ice breaks away, and just as Medicham is about to strike, Snorlax wakes up and dodges. Ash orders another Hyper Beam, which Medicham dodges. It uses Ice Punch again and hits. Another Hyper Beam is ordered, but Snorlax can't do it. Greta orders more Focus Punches, which hit Snorlax repeatedly. However, it charges its Hyper Beam, and just as Medicham is about to finish it off, Ash tells Snorlax to direct the Hyper Beam to the ground blasting it up near the ceiling, where it rocks down to crush Medicham with Body Slam. Medicham faints. Ashley is declared the winner, and Ash and Snorlax hug excitedly.

Outside the Battle Arena, Greta awards Ashley the Guts Symbol. Scott tells Ash that the next facility is the Battle Dome. The group walks off toward it..

Ashley and his friends are heading to the Battle Dome fresh over Ashley winning the Guts Symbol. May steps off the path to admire a nearby farm, but two Voltorb approach from behind. Max warns her, but it is too late to prevent them from attacking May with fierce Electric attacks. A young girl steps out from behind a bush and reveals that the Voltorb are trained to attack trespassers. However, she recognizes May from her win at the Saffron City Contest. Two adults call out the girl's name, Nicolette, and invite them inside. The family serves them a meal as the father, Christopher, introduces his wife Jeannie and her daughter Nicolette. Nicolette wants to be a Coordinator, but she does not feel ready to leave home. Max asks what kind of farm the family runs, and Christopher reveals that they are farm ranchers, raising Pokémon Eggs. He offers to give them a tour of the ranch.

As Nicolette carries a bucket of grass out, she notices Max grooming Munchlax. She talks about wanting to have a test battle, but she does not realize she openly said it to Max. She recovers and wants to battle, but Max points out that Munchlax belongs to his sister. May comes out and talks to Nicolette about training to become a coordinator. Nicolette challenges her to a battle, pitting Vileplume against Munchlax, despite that May has not battled with Munchlax. Vileplume attacks with Petal Dance, confusing Munchlax. Despite that, it still pulls off a Metronome attack, which unfortunately turns into Splash. Vileplume uses Stun Spore to paralyze Munchlax and cripple it further. Vileplume fires Bullet Seed, creating a smokescreen around Munchlax and apparently ending the battle. Nicolette begins to brag, which irritates May and gets her fired up to battle. Munchlax responds in kind, recovering from the attack and charging forward, executing a Focus Punch attack against the off-guard Vileplume and sending it back. As Max points out the attack, May orders Munchlax to use Solar Beam. Vileplume ducks the attack, but it makes a glancing blow, still enough to knock it out. Nicolette tries to brush it off, but she is amazed at May's skill. May celebrates her win with her surprisingly powerful Munchlax. Ashley and Brock call to them to check out the Eggs.

Inside one of the storage room, Eggs line the shelves and astound the group. Some of the Eggs belong to other Trainers while others belong to the family. Christopher asks May to share her traveling stories with Nicolette to motivate her. He points out that one Egg is ready to hatch and the group offers to help hatch it.

As the sun rises, everyone watches the Egg prepare to hatch. The Egg brings out a Vulpix, prompting May to check her Pokédex. May compliments Nicolette about her combinations, reassuring that Nicolette is ready. She makes the decision to go on her journey. As Ashley and friends prepare to depart, Christopher gives May an Egg as a gift for helping Nicolette. She accepts the Egg and the heroes depart. Learning about Pokémon eggs has opened up a new world for our heroes after returning a large collection safely back to their caretakers. As they once again focus on the Battle Dome and Ashley's next challenge, one can be sure what May's Pokémon might eventually hatch from its very own egg, as the journey continues.
