Ash woke up snuggled with his girlfriends in his Arceus form, "You have got to love being a Pokémon," Ash said remembering last night, "Ash wake up the girls Dawn is making her special breakfast," Serena said, "Okay be out in a moment," Ash said nudging his girlfriends awake, "Hmm what time is it," Azelf asked still sleepy, "Dawn's making her special breakfast today," Ash said getting the rest of them to wake up, "Yes that's perfect," Latias said, "I don't what's in it but it is delicious," Giratina said, "Aunt Dawn making special breakfast yay," Manaphy said, "Well then I need to get dressed so I'll meet you over there," Ash said to his girlfriends as fire engulfed him returning to human form, "Pikachu you still here bud," Ash asked as Pikachu came out of the trees, "Hey Ash how well did you sleep last night," Pikachu asked winking at him, "Pikachu we weren't getting down and dirty last night but I did sleep with them which is always pretty good," Ash said smiling, "Aw come on man you got the greatest girls in the world and your still not going at it," Pikachu said disappointed, "Let's just go and eat alright bud," Ash said rolling his eyes, "Fine there better be some ketchup," Pikachu said and Ash laughed as they left to go eat, "AHHHH," Dawn shrieked, "What's wrong Dawn," Ash asked, "The food it's gone," Dawn said with anime tears, "What's wrong Aunt Dawn," Manaphy asked (I did not try to rhyme that at ALL), "Someone stole the breakfast I made and I can't make another without the right ingredients," Dawn said calming down, "Who took it," Manaphy asked, "I don't know I saw something small fly by fast with a red head," Dawn said, "I think I know what Pokémon took your food," Serena said, "Really which one was Serena," Ash asked, "From what she said it sounds like a Fletchling," Serena said, "A Fletchling I could use a flying type for my new Kalos team," Ash said, "Well if you catch it teach it some manners alright," Dawn said, "Deal come on Pikachu let's go find that Fletchling," Ash said as they ran off to find the Fletchling, "Now where could that Fletchling be," Ash wondered, "Ash look over there," Pikachu said pointing towards a bush as Fletchling popped out using Aerial Ace, "Pikachu use Thunder," Ash said as Pikachu unleashed his devastating attack hitting Fletchling to the ground, "Go Pokéball," Ash said throwing the Pokéball at Fletchling it shook 5 times before it was a success, "Alright we caught Fletchling," Ash said as Pikachu jumped up, "Now Fletchling come on out," Ash said letting Fletchling out, "OW that hurt," Fletchling said, "Sorry here this will help," Ash said spraying the potion on his wounds, "Ah much better thanks," Fletchling said, "Well let's head back to camp," Ash said returning Fletchling to his Pokéball, "Well Ash did you find that Fletchling," Dawn asked, "Yeah I'll train him for my next Gym battle," Ash said as a Froakie appeared fighting a Chespin, "Whoa two of the Kalos starters are here sweet," Ash said watching the two Pokémon fight, "Ash catch them before they destroy all of our stuff," Dawn said as Ritchie ran towards Ash, "Hey Ash mind if I catch Chespin," Ritchie asked, "Sure I'll catch Froakie," Ash said, "Let's end this in one move," Ritchie said with a smirk, "Alright then," Ash said with a smirk, "Double Thunderbolt," Ash and Ritchie said in unison as Pikachu and Sparky unleashed the most powerful attack they had knocking both Pokémon unconscious, "Go Pokéball," they said throwing their Pokéballs at the two Pokémon catching them instantly, "I got a Froakie," Ash said jumping in the air, "I got a Chespin," Ritchie said copying Ash and everyone started laughing, "Alright next stop is Cyllage City," Ash said as he heard a cage door shut, "Guys a detour just came up girls it's safer in your Pokéballs so please return," Ash said returning his girlfriends to their Pokéballs, "What's up Ash," Ritchie asked, "Pokémon Poachers are you coming," Ash asked him, "Hell yeah they are going down," Ritchie said, "Me and Serena will set up a makeshift medical station," Dawn said, "Good now let's go," Ash said in serious tone running towards the sound of the cage with Ritchie.
Near an old dirt road, "Crap the tires flat," a poacher said cursing under his breath, "Well we can buy a better car once we sell these two baby Pokémon," a second poacher said pointing at the two injured baby Pokémon, "Yeah this one is an Riolu a Sinnoh Pokémon and that one is an Electrike a Hoenn Pokémon," a third poacher said, "Excuse me are those your Pokémon," Ash said with his cap over his face, "What's it to you," the first poacher asked, "We don't like that you think you can just sell Pokémon like their nothing more then a item," Ritchie said wearing a hood, "Well maybe you should sleep on it," the third poacher said signaling the other two too let out their Pokémon, "Yeah take a dirt nap," all three poachers said in unison letting out their Pokémon, "Really this won't even be a challenge," Ash said as his Pikachu appeared, "I agree we only need one move for this," Ritchie said as Sparky appeared, "DOUBLE THUNDERBOLT AND SEND THESE CLOWNS TO THE NEXT CENTURY," Ash and Ritchie bellowed as their Pokémon charged the attack, "FIRE," they screamed as the Pikachu's unleashed their power knocking out the poachers and their Pokémon, "You called Officer Jenny right," Ash asked Ritchie, "Yeah she'll be here in ten to twenty minutes," Ritchie said walking towards the cage, "These guys are injured and the cage is electrical," said Ritchie after inspecting it, "Stand back," Ash said and Ritchie stood back as the cage door blew open, "Ritchie take the Electrike and I'll Riolu," Ash said gently picking up the Riolu, "Okay," Ritchie said gently picking up the Electrike, "Now lets tie them up for the Officer Jenny," Ash said grabbing rope with his Aura and tied up the poachers, "Now let's go Ash," Ritchie said as they ran back to their camp site.
"Where are they," Serena asked getting worried, "Their going to come back just be patient," Dawn said calming Serena down as Ash and Ritchie came out of the woods with two baby Pokémon, "Dawn; Serena these two are injured," Ash said he placed them on the table letting his girlfriends out of their Pokéballs, "What happened," Cresselia asked then saw the two injured baby Pokémon, "Ash do you find poachers nearby," Kyogre asked, "Yeah and Officer Jenny should be driving them to a jail cell right about now," Ash said with a still serious look on his face, "Ash Riolu and Electrike will be fine in hour they need some rest and then they should wake up," Serena said, "Good Ritchie and I want to ask them a question," Ash said remembering the four dead Pokémon they found chasing those poachers, "Okay then why don't you two wait for them to wake up in here," Serena said letting Ash and Ritchie in and the girls kept close to the door, "Is Papa okay," Manaphy asked, "He is fine dear he's just worried about those two alright," Ho-Oh said, "He loves everything but won't accept the abuse or neglect that some people have for their family, friends, or their Pokémon," Giratina said, "Another reason we all love him," Azelf said and the girls all agreed, "Papa is very nice but he's scary when he's angry," Manaphy said as the girls continued to talk as Ash and Ritchie waited with the baby Pokémon.
1 Hour later
The two baby Pokémon began to stir Ash went towards the baby Riolu and Ritchie went towards the baby Electrike, "Hmm ouch where am I," the baby Riolu asked getting a little scared, "Hey it's okay we won't hurt you," Ash said, "W-Who are you and where's my Mommy and Daddy," the Riolu asked scared and looking around for them to comfort him, "I'm so sorry but by the time I got their the bad men had already killed them I tried to help but the wounds were to severe and I made a promise to with them to take care of you so and make sure that you stay safe," Ash said almost tears remembering their last breath, "T-They're gone," the baby Riolu said and started to cry and Ash hugged him, "It's going to be okay you're safe the bad men who killed them went far, far away," Ash said whispering into Riolu ears, "Now my family is gone," Riolu said still crying, "I consider my Pokémon as my family if you want to meet the rest my Pokémon family you can and they will tell I will never hurt you or mistreat you," Ash said trying to give the Riolu as much comfort as possible, "O-Okay I want to meet them," Riolu said with tears still in his eyes, "Why don't you meet Pikachu first," Ash said and called Pikachu in the room, "Yes Ash do you need me," Pikachu asked, "Yeah this is the Riolu we saved he want's to meet the rest of my Pokémon but I want him to meet you first," Ash said as Pikachu hopped up on the table, "Hi I'm Pikachu," Pikachu said holding his hand out, "I-I'm Riolu," Riolu said grabbing Pikachu's hand and Pikachu began to shake his hand, "I've been with Ash for a really long time I was his very first Pokémon and I'm his best friend he and we have always been together through thick and thin," Pikachu told Riolu making awestruck, "Where are you from," Riolu asked them, "Were from the Kanto region," Ash said, "Do you keep all your Pokémon with you," Riolu asked, "If I could they would all be with me having a great time," Ash said, "Why can't you," Riolu asked, "There are rules that I have to follow but I was able to bring my girlfriends with me because I have connection with a great person his name is Professor Oak," Ash told Riolu, "Your girlfriends are Pokémon," Riolu asked confused, "Yeah and their Legendary Pokémon," Ash said and Riolu had a stunned but also confused look on his face, "How can you date a Pokémon if you're a human," Riolu said then giving little yawn, "I'll tell you later why don't you get some rest for now okay," Ash said smiling, "Okay as long as you're my new daddy," Riolu said, "Of course," Ash said to Riolu, "Okay good night… daddy," Riolu said drifting off to sleep, "Good night son," Ash whispered to the baby Riolu then took a small blanket and put it on Riolu's body and Ritchie was doing the same with Electrike, "Hey girls," Ash said, "How is he," Azelf asked, "He seems to be doing okay for right now," Ash said, "So what are you going to do," Giratina asked, "I made a promise to his parent's before they passed and I'm going to keep my promise to them," Ash said, "So he'll be joining us," Cresselia said, "Yes he sees me as his new dad so it will be like Manaphy having a brother," Ash said, "Riolu is going to be my brother," Manaphy asked, "Yes Manaphy, Riolu will be your brother," Ash said rubbing her head, "This has been a very eventful day," Ho-Oh said, "Yes it has and I will talk to Riolu in the morning some and try to get to know him," Ash said, "Good idea," Giratina said getting nods from all the other girls in agreement, "I think I will sleep close by in case he gets scared," Ash said, "We should stay in our Pokéballs until morning so any lingering poachers won't be drawn here," Latias said and the other girls agreed, "Alright then if that's what you want," Ash said returning them to their Pokéballs and Ash went back into the room and brought out his sleeping bag and saw Ritchie in the room too, "Looks like we had the same idea," Ash said smiling, "They need all the support they can get," Ritchie said as he got in his sleeping bag and went to sleep, "Sweet dreams Riolu my son,' Ash thought and went to sleep.
