[This is Aura speech]
It was nighttime, and Ash was off training with Riolu. [Ice Punch!] yelled Ash as ice covered his hand and he struck Riolu. [Meteor Mash!] roared Riolu back smashing Ash away, and making Ash nearly be fried by one of Charizards Flamethrowers. ("Oy! Watch where you aim dog!") Growled Charizard at Riolu. ("Who are you calling a dog, lizard!") snapped Riolu back. "Stop" said Ash simply shutting them up. "We should get back to camp, it's morning" he finished. Latias then flew him Riolu, and Pikachu back to camp.
Brock was up cooking and nodded in greeting to Ash as he came. "You know" Brock mused "before you wouldn't get up before noon unless Pikachu shocked you, but now you're up all night training." "Yup" grinned Ash. "You know, every girl but Jessie left awhile ago and they haven't come back yet. "Could you go find them Ash?" "Sure thing" the Aura Phoenix said.
1 hour earlier…
Misty looked at the sky and thought to herself 'I love him, and I will do anything for him.' May, Dawn, and Iris all had identical thoughts as they looked at the sky. May's Glaceon, May's Skitty, Dawn's Buneary, Dawn's Pachirisu, and Iris's Emolga all thought 'I love that Pikachu, but does he love me?' From four different directions the girls walked to a clearing. When they reached there they read each other's faces like books. "Ash is mine" snarled Misty "I knew him the longest." "Ash taught me everything I know" replied May "I won't give him up." "I am the only person Ash traded a Pokemon with" Dawn shot "none of you can beat that." "Ash has helped me so much" snapped Iris "I will never give him up."
"Go, Gyarados!" "Go, Blaziken!" "Go, Mamoswine!" "Go, Dragonite!"
"Gyarados, use Hyper Beam on Blaziken!" "Blaziken,dodge with Quick Attack and then use Mirror Move!" Gyarados shot a massive beam of energy at Blaziken, only for a copy of it to hit Gyarados instead as Blaziken dodged the original Hyper Beam. "Dragonite, use Flamethrower on Mamoswine!" "Mamoswine, use Dig to dodge and then use Ice Armor!" Dragonite shot a Flamethrower at Mamoswine, who dodged it using Dig and resurfaced with ice spikes all over him. "Blaziken use Blast Burn, full power!" The Blast Burn knocked out Gyarados, but sent Blaziken into Blaze. "Get some rest, Blaziken" May said running over and patting him on the head. "This isn't over" snarled Misty "I will have Ash!" She then turned and began the long trek back to camp.
"Mamoswine, use Ice Shard and Hidden Power!" Hidden Power was Ice type and the two super-effective moves knocked down Dragonite. "Again Mamoswine!" The same thing happened. The third time knocked out Dragonite. Iris left exactly like Misty. A single OverFlame then knocked out Mamoswine. May and Dawn then left glaring at each other.
Breakfast was so tense that you could practically cut it with a knife. After they hit the road, Ash asked "why are you four so mad?" "We're not mad" the quartet chorused glaring at each other. Ash then turned to Jessie, who shrugged her shoulders. As they walked Ash remarked "hey, this is close to Pokemon Trainers Tech. Maybe we can meet Giselle and Joe again. That'd be nice."
When they reached the school, they saw a sign on it that said 'CLOSED FOR TRAINING PURPOSES' "that's strange" said Brock "why would it be closed for training purposes? It just doesn't add up." Shrugging, Ash led them away.
Eventually, Ash's Ivysaur burst out of his Pokeball, and said Ivy-Ivy-Saur-Saur-Saur-r-r-r-vy-vy-vy-Ivysaur! ("Ash, we're close to the hidden village! Can we please go see Melanie and the others? Please!") Ash smiled. "Of course we can Ivysaur" he said while Meowth translated it for the others. Melanie was quite happy to see them, and Jessie, James, and Meowth apologized for their earlier transgression.
The group set out again the next morning. Eventually, they saw the rock that Ash had first seen his Charmander on, and they saw A.J. there. "Hey, A.J.!" Ash called out. "Hey, Ash!" He yelled back. They chatted for a while, and Jessie, James, and Meowth apologized for their earlier transgression. Ash and A.J. decided to have a one on one battle.
"Go, Sandslash!" Ordered A.J. "Go, Riolu!" Ordered Ash. "Sandslash, use Fissure!" [Riolu, Magnet Rise!] Sandslash unleashed a massive earthquake, which Riolu rose over. "Sandslash, use Defence Curl, then use Rollout!" [Riolu, use Force Palm!] Sandslash curled up into a ball and rolled towards Riolu, who struck it hard. "Sandslash, Aerial Ace!" Riolu was struck by the super effective move. "Now use Return!" Riolu was struck again. [Riolu, use Endure!] "Sandslash, use Fissure!" An earthquake opened up and closed on Riolu who broke out just barely still up. Suddenly Riolu glowed. His form began to change, and he became a Lucario. [Lucario, use Dragon Pulse!] a draconic beam of energy struck Sandslash. [Now use all of your power in an Aura Sphere!] Lucario did, and knocked out Sandslash.
After chatting a bit more, A.J. left, and the group continued on. They met the squirtle squad, and talked to Bill. Finally, they reached Vermillion City.
"Hey, look who's here." Said Lt. Surge "little baby with his Pikachu." "Hey Surge" grinned Ash as he introduced everyone else. After chatting a bit, they stood on the field, with Brock as referee. "This will be a one-on-one battle between and Ash Ketchum. "Go, Raichu!" "Go, Latias!" Lt. Surge's jaw dropped. "How-how-how in the name of Zapdos's strongest Zap cannon did you catch a Latias?!" "Long story" Ash smirked. {Latias, turn invisible} Latias disappeared. "Raichu, use Thunder!" {Latias, fly up and use Protect} Raichu unleashed thousands of volts of electricity. {Latias, use Dragon Breath} draconic flames came out of thin air and struck Raichu. {Latias, use Sunny Day, then Solarbeam} the sun came out and a green yellow beam of energy struck Raichu. "Raichu, use Shockwave." A bolt of lightning struck Latias, causing her to cry out in pain. "Latias, use DRACO METEOR! Lt. Surge swore, and said "Raichu use VOLT TACKLE! A massive explosion rocked the gym. When the smoke cleared, Latias was up, and Raichu was unconscious. Max battled against Lt. Surge's Pikachu with his Gardevoir, winning with 5 Psychics, and a Future Sight. Jessie used her Arbok (Arbok and Weezing and were at the hidden village) to great effect on Surge's Voltorb. James used Yamask on Surge's Magnemite. The group then left.
