Ash's Saga Chapter 1
Ash stays with Professor Oak to change his Pokémon lineup. He leaves his current team with the professor except for Pikachu, of course. As he is thinking of what Pokémon he should use, Misty gives back Ash's old Pokémon; Pidgeot and Butterfree.
Ash: I'll pick Pidgeot for my team.
Ash and company meets the rest of Ash's Pokémon and decides on more Pokémon.
Ash: Sceptile was helpful when I needed it. Come along. You too, Kingler.
Just as Ash is about to decide on his fifth Pokémon, his Charizard flies towards him.
Ash: Charizard? It's good to see you. Since you're here, how about you come to my new team?
Ash couldn't simply choose his sixth Pokémon, since all of his Pokémon are strong to him. Oak recommends Ash to choose his Muk. Just as Ash was about to decide, a barely recognizable face with a Pokémon that Ash can barely forget appears.
Brock: Isn't that…Anthony?
Ash: The guy in that P1 thing?
Anthony: It's real good to see you again, boys. I've come to give you a surprise.
Ash: Sure what is it?
Anthony: Here it comes. *Anthony sends out Ash's Primeape*
Ash: Primeape? You look a lot stronger!
Anthony: Thought you'll need it. *gives Ash Primeape's Poke Ball*
Ash: Thanks. So my new team is composed of Pikachu, Pidgeot, Sceptile, Kingler, Charizard, and Primeape. Thanks, Anthony.
Anthony: No problem.
Ash, Brock, Misty, and Ash's Pokémon begin to leave to Indigo Plateau. Oak, Tracy, and Anthony waves good-bye. They take the last three super bikes to Indigo Plateau. In almost no time at all, they reached their destination. Misty's hair is messed up badly, so she fixes it while Ash registers for the League. Brock sees yet another familiar face.
Brock: Hey look, it's Ritchie.
Ritchie: Hey Brock. Where's Ash?
Brock: Over there. And Misty's over there, fixing her hair.
Ash finishes registering and sees Ritchie, as does Misty. Ash and Ritchie wished each other luck. The Indigo League begins and both Ash and Ritchie are doing well. Hours later, the two faces each other in the finals. (It only took hours instead of two days since not many people were around.)
Ritchie sends out Cruz, (Or Cruise, whatever you like you spell its name.) which evolved into a Tyranitar. Ash sends out Primeape to see what Anthony has done for it. One-Hit-Cross Chop-Critical Hit-Knock Out (Or OHCCCHKO). Ritchie sends out Rose, which evolved into a Swellow. Rose defeats Primeape with various Aerial Aces and other moves. Ash sends out Pidgeot and beats Rose. Ritchie sends out Sparky (Pikachu) and beats Pidgeot. Ash is tempted to use Pikachu, but ends up using Sceptile instead. Sceptile beats Sparky, but Sceptile is weakened. Ritchie sends out Zippo, evolved into Charizard, and beats Sceptile. Ash sends out Kingler to retaliate, but it didn't work. Ash sends out his own Charizard to beat Zippo. Ritchie's Happy (Butterfree) didn't help in beating Charizard. Ritchie sends out a Linoone named Arrow. Arrow uses Surf to OHKO Charizard. Ash's Pikachu finished the battle with a tough fight (and a Volt Tackle). Ash wins.
After all that, Ritchie says good-bye and the heroes head west.
