[I]When you walk down the road

Heavy burden, heavy load

I will rise and I will walk with you[/I]

(set after the Alola travels, about to enter a region based on Nevada)

Ash Ketchum was walking down a desert road, with only Pikachu.

For the umpteenth time, he was starting an adventure in a new region, with only Pikachu in hand. Fresh off completing his trials in Alola, he was entering the desert-like Vages region.

That region had a reputation for having some difficult Gyms to beat.

He only took like 10 steps down the first road out of the first town when a surprise visitor came to see him.

"Ashy-boy, you didn't think I was gonna let you travel through Vages all by yourself didn't you?" a familiar red-head shouted out.

Ash said, "Misty! I thought you had to take care of the Gym in Cerulean City" as he reunited with his love.

"my sisters came back from their trip finally, besides, when you walk through the night, I will come and I will walk with you" Misty said.

"That's reassuring," Ash said.

"Until the sun don't even shine, I'll be there all the time, I tell you I'll walk with you. Come on, this region has the most difficult Gyms in the Pokemon world. I will see you through your victories" Misty said.

Ash, Misty and Pikachu began a new journey through a very unforgiving region. Until the clouds faded away, nothing could keep Ash and Misty apart, ever again.
