Firey got up after Rayquaza sensed something was off. A Meowrh Balloon flew past the Pokemon Center.
"To Protect the world from devastation...Ahhh!" Jessie screamed.
Rayquaza used Hyper Beam, which put a hole in the balloon and sent blasting off again.
"Great, it's 5:30 am, time to wake everyone up." Firey said.
Twenty minutes later, Pikachu was shaking Ash, trying to wake him up, but to no avail, so Pikachu used Thunderbolt.
"Chuuuuuuuu!" Pikachu exclaimed as it used Thunderbolt.
"Pikachu, I'm up!" Ash exclaimed.
"Pika!" Pikachu smirked.
Everyone met Ash at the cafeteria in the Pokemon Center, eating a breakfast made by Cilan, Brock and Clemont.
Ash was at a videophone, talking to someone male, with red and black hair, wearing winter clothes, with a green haired girl, a platinum blonde haired girl, a blue haired girl, and a shorter orange haired guy.
"Okay, we'll see you when we get to Vermillion City, bye everyone!" Ash exclaimed.
"Who was that?" May asked.
"My classmates from Alola, Kiawe, a fire type trainer who is quite strong, Lana, a water type trainer, Misty should get along with her, Mallow, a chef who has grass types, Sophocles, an inventor with electric types, and Lillie, who only has two Pokemon." Ash explained, "We all went to a Pokemon School run by Professor Oak's Cousin, Samson."
"My sister, the champion, her rival is his grandson, Johann, and technically, Gary's third cousin." Firey explained.
"Oh." Everyone said.
"So, we'll have four people to cook." Clemont asked.
"Yes." Ash answered.
"Everyone, we're heading out!" Ash exclaimed.
Everyone got their stuff, Pikachu hopped on Ash's shoulder, Sharp popped out of her Pokeball and walked beside Firey as he returned his Rayquaza, Dawn's Piplup hopped on her head and Dedenne hopped in Bonnie's bag.
Everyone was walking down the route when they stepped, except for Firey, in a giant hole.
"Hey, who put that hole there!" Everyone except Firey yelled.
"All the twerps in one hole!" (Jessie)
"Never thought that would roll!" (James)
"To Protect the world from Devastation!" (Jessie)
"To unite all people within our nation." (James)
"To denounce the evils of truth and love!" (Jessie)
"To extend..." (James)
"Entei use Fire Spin!" a voice yelled.
A spinning ball of fire went right past the balloon, startling everyone on board.
"What was that for!" (Jessie)
"Back off, my friend is in this group!" The voice yelled.
"Gligar, use Fury Cutter!" James yelled.
"Entei, Use Heat Wave!" the voice yelled.
Gligar was knocked out by the wave of heat.
"Sharp, use Thunder!" (Firey)
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!" (Ash)
"Piplup, use Hydro Pump!" (Dawn)
"Axew, use Dragon Rage!" (Iris)
(If you are wondering, Iris and Cilan caught up to them in Cerulean City.)
Dedenne, use Thundershock!" (Bonnie)
"Charizard, where are you going?" a girl yelled.
The Charizard's eyes lit up, and a ton of fire came flying towards Team Rocket's balloon, all the attacks hit at once sending them blasting off.
"We're Blasting off again!" (Team Rocket)
"Sorry about Charizard, he can be a bit difficult at times!" the girl exclaimed, "Hey, I know you, you're Firey Argentston!"
"You are?"
"Jaclyn, Half sister of the Kalos league winner last year."
"Jaclyn, the other finalist is here..." Firey whispered.
"Oh." Jaclyn whispered.
"Where are you going?" Firey asked.
"Hiru, a kid said she saw a Hiruan Giratina flying by earlier, I don't believe her." Jaclyn said.
"You should, because Zachary Zirconis caught it." Firey explained.
"Holy Miltank!" Jaclyn exclaimed.
"We were on our way to Vermilion City to get to a ship for Hiru." Ash explained.
"Charizard and I are heading there." Jaclyn said as she boarded her Charizard, "Use Fly to go to Fairyfoot town!"
Charizard flew off towards Hiru as our crew climbed out of the giant hole they were in.
"Everyone, let's go!" Ash and Firey exclaimed.
As Ash and company headed down the route towards Vermilion, what seemed to be an Arcanine flew past them.
"Sorry about my Arcanine, he is always like this!" Adrianna exclaimed.
"Entei, use Extrasensory!"
Something odd hit the Arcanine, startling him.
"Thank you so much, Arcanine return!" Adrianna exclaimed.
Everyone continued down the route, Adrianna and the other girl went off in their own direction, until they found what looked like a Team Magma Admin.
"You again!" Firey yelled, and three pokeballs opened.
Firey's Sceptile, Ninetales, and Rayquaza were all glaring at him, scaring the man off.
"Who was that?" Ash asked.
"Magma Admin, involved in controversial case." Firey explained.
"Oh.." Ash responded.
As the crew arrived in Vermilion City, they located the Pokemon Center. Everyone went there and found the five people and their Pokemon.
On the far left was Kiawe and Turtonator, then Mallow and Tsareena, Lillie and Snowy, Lana and Popplio, and Sophocles and Togedemaru.
Snowy is an Alolan Vulpix with white fur where the orange was.
Snowy jumped on the floor and as that happened, Firey let out his Ninetales.
"Nine?" Ninetales asked her trainer.
"Woah, a Ninetales," A boy asked, "Where'd you get it?"
"Mt. Pyre in Hoenn." Firey answered.
The boy left and everyone went about their business.
"Vul?" Snowy asked.
"Nine." Ninetales responded.
All was going smoothly until someone released a Tentacruel and somehow managed to poison all of the Pokemon.
"What the Distortion World!?" Firey yelled.
"Sorry about my Tentacruel." another boy squeaked, "Hold on, Firey, right?"
"You know me?" Firey asked.
"Have a message from the Unova League accepting your offer of Alder to return to the league since you still need to travel." The boy explained.
"Tell him thanks." Firey explained
"I am too busy to be a champion, its just not the right time." Firey explained, with tears hanging in his eyes.
"Oh!" Ash and the others sighed.
"Well, Firey?" Lillie asked, "Are you ok?"
"I'm still grieving for my last girlfriend's fatal accident." Firey answered.
"Oh." Lillie sighed.
"Vul?" Snowy asked.
"Nine." Ninetales said sadly.
"Vul." Snowy sighed.
Everyone went to bed, as several of the Pokemon were being treated for poisoning, Firey's Ninetales had sensed sludge and used a light Flamethrower to incinerate the leftover sludge.
The next morning, everyone woke up to what seemed to be like a herd of Donphan running around the Pokemon Center.
"What was that!?" Misty yelled.
"Why does it sound like a herd of Tauros are in the Pokemon Center!?" Ash yelled.
"Argh!" Firey yelled, "Getting Weavile."
"Y-you have a-a We-weavile?" Iris asked shaking.
"Yes, why are you asking?" Firey asked.
"As you may not know, I am afraid of Ice types." Iris exclaimed.
"Also after this, you may want to look on the roof." Firey explained.
Iris went outside and her jaw went slack at the sight of the Rayquaza napping on the roof.
"Weavile, use Icy Wind to herd the Donphan!" Firey ordered.
"It's ccccold innn hereeee!" Iris exclaimed, shivering.
"Sorry!" Firey exclaimed.
The herd of Donphan ran out the door.
"Weavile, return, I'll send you back when we get to Fairyfoot town." Firey whispered, "Let's head to the harbor and catch a boat to Hiru!"
"Let's Go!" Everyone exclaimed.
Everyone ran out of the Pokemon Center and headed to the harbor.
"Tickets for 19?" Firey asked.
"Here they are!" the attendant said.
They ran on to the boat, it's a big boat.
