"And with that, the Galarian Summit Tournament finally comes to an end! Ash Ketchum, the Pokemon trainer who came basically out of nowhere, who was known, get this, as Red Satoshi prior to the semifinal round, topples the local favourite and takes the trophy!"

"Aaash!! You did it!"

Ash heard a few shouts and the next thing he knew was him being glomped to the ground by the girls. He couldn't contain his joyful laughter as Goh and Brock were smiling and applauding their old friend.

Jira thanked Weavile as the Dark/Ice-type pokemon finally got up. Such a powerful Thunderbolt would surely need a check at the Pokemon Center, but Weavile knew he wanted to respect his opponent. He was still stumbling when Latios suddenly popped out of his Pokeball and allowed Weavile to take a seat on his back.

"Dear spectators", the referee spoke staring straight at Ash's friends, "I am sorry but you're not allowed to-"

"Stop right there." Jira spoke. "They're his best friends, I'm sure he'll be fine."

Jira then approached Ash as he was still being hugged by the four girls, before Serena noticed the runner-up and quickly apologized. Latios flew 50 meters before letting Weavile get down to shake hands with Pikachu, as the girls broke the dogpile and allowed Ash to stand up.

"Ash Ketchum of Pallet Town. You have my respect."

"That was a great battle, Jira. You and your Pokemon have done well."

"Ever since I found you, I just knew what you were made of, Ash. You've found your lost passion."

"Yeah! I'll have to repay you back a thousand times!"

"Maybe with one of these ladies…" Jira quickly thought.

"Two years, Jira." Ash continued. "That's two years more than I would have liked to. It took me this time to find myself."

"Next time, Ash… I'll win." Jira smirked.

Later

"Your Pokemon are finally back to perfect health, Jira." Nurse Joy told him, as Weavile and Latios immediately popped out of their poke balls.

"Thank you, Nurse Joy. By the way, have you seen Ash?"

"He must be in his locker room. The ceremony was quick… he took his trophy and a few pics with Leon and his Pokemon."

"I'm curious as to what his next plans are…"

With Ash and Goh

"Ash. Come here quick." Goh said.

"Goh…?"

"I think the girls are acting funny. They seem to really want to stay close to you. And you know by now what that means. There's so much… let's say, romantic tension in the air."

"Goh… I know. They've grown even more beautiful that I knew they were a while ago. I can't seem to choose between the four."

"Misty really dragged me down to earth when I was a rookie," he continued, "but she was such a sweet and caring person. A powerful water-type trainer, that's who Misty is. And now she's let her hair grow long and wants to play with mine."

"Dawn and May, too. These two girls taught me about Pokemon Contests. I've learned much more from them than I thought back when I was a kid. Dawn is always optimistic, May shares my love of food…"

"And Serena. Oh yeah, Serena… this girl taught me what love is. She gave me a huge kiss when I left for Alola. She just wants to see me doing okay. And she inspires others to become Performers."

"I love… them all, Goh. I just hope there's no war between them."

"But I can't feel like I can tell them at point blank. You see… I'm still a little shy."

"Ash, don't worry, bro." Goh said. "I sat with the girls while watching your battles. I don't feel like there's any animosity between them. Which is really weird to me."

"Perhaps a Luvdisc is watching over them, from above. Who knows. I remember swimming with May in a Luvdisc school..."

"See, maybe she is meant for you, Ash. I'm not sure how, um, ethical, would be for you to have..."

"But Serena also showed me signs of love. She always wore red when she was travelling with me. Dawn and Misty quote me often. Dawn made me a chocolate when I was travelling in Sinnoh with her and Brock, and it was around Valentine's..."

"..."

At 10:30 PM, as Ash and Pikachu were ready to go to sleep, when suddenly…

"Who could it be…?"

"Just let me sleep… I wanna think... How do I now return to my hometown?" Ash thought.

Ash opened the door… and Serena and the other girls were in front of him. The girls had slightly serious looks on their faces that began to blush the more they were looking at Ash.

"Hey Ash." Dawn spoke. "Could we…?"

"Dawn? Everyone? What are you doing here?"

"Ash… we were wondering if we could… sleep… with you…?" May added.

That made Ash's eyes go wide. Ash was unused to something like this, because the last time he's ever slept with anyone other than Pikachu was with Delia when he was a baby.

Ash remembered how Serena tried repeatedly to sleep with him during his Kalos journey, but back then, this oblivious as fuck trainer didn't let anyone interfere. He kept having to lock his room sometimes, despite otherwise having a great friendship with her and the Kalos gang.

But this time, he's grown up a little, and felt like some companionship might not be that bad.

"Yes… you may. But I don't think I have enough room…"

"Oh yeah, looks like there's two mattresses right here. Let me get them real quick. Hey Pikachu, you can sleep in my bed."

A few poke balls suddenly reacted and Glaceon, Buneary and Sylveon popped out, then jumped in Ash's bed to snuggle Pikachu. The little mouse had his own girl troubles.

Ash was helped by Dawn and Serena and put the two mattresses on the floor before covering them up and getting a few pillows. Then he instinctually sat down in the middle…

…as he felt Serena and Dawn nuzzling down his neck as they laid their heads on the chest. May and Misty cuddled his arms.

"Thank you, Ashy." May said. "Here's a small present."

Ash blushed madly as he felt May giving him a huge kiss on the cheek. Then Serena, remembering that moment, ramped up and kissed Ash straight on the lips.

"Ash. What does it... taste like?" she asked blushing. "I never got to ask you."

He blushed heavily, poor him…

"Like... strawberries? I don't know... why would you... ask me this?" he said while stumbling. Dawn waited for him to end his speech, before coming with her own kiss.

"What about mine?"

Then he felt Misty coming from above for a third kiss on his mouth, being careful not to hit Dawn.

"Or mine?"

"Does this mean what I think it means?" Ash thought. "They're... confessing to me now."

"Hey, wait for me! I only kissed your cheek." May said. "Here I come!"

May then rose up a little and kissed his lips just like the previous girls did. Poor Ash was blushing so hard, he was literally trying to think of other things, like dancing Altaria and Goh giving Cinderace food... and especially him finding a way to return to Pallet Town, but he couldn't, as the next words he heard were...

"Ash... we love you."

"..."

"..."

"I..." Ash said, "...I love you too, everyone... you're all so sweet."

The girls gasped in happiness and gave him lots of kisses on his face and his mouth. It was a good thing they weren't wearing lipstick. Ash was obviously happy, as the girls were lighting up his face with every little kiss and nuzzle.

"I was thinking of other things now...," Ash said, "but I was honestly... in need of some serious affection. I... I can barely let out my thoughts, but... I love you, my girls."

The girls were touched by Ash's words, knowing his past two years and his mention of love, and they cuddled him tighter.

"Anyway… everyone, good night. Let's sleep well." Ash spoke silently.

"Night, love." Misty spoke softly.

And this is the end of the Galarian Summit Tournament. I might write a sequel to this story - as you can see, there are plenty of unexplained elements for now, which will definitely come into play in the second installment - but for now, that's it.
