Hello readers! I would like to thank Kingdom Infinity, WordSmyth, urs-v, Matt and Jazz for reviewing the previous chapter as well as FallenLucifersAngel for favoriting and following along with jordandragons for favoriting and ApocSM for following! Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!

For your information, as much as I love reviews, I HATE being rebuked for my ideas and writing style! Constructive criticism is acceptable, but not outright flaming! It would have been a lot different if you mention the bad with the better, but if you only bring out the negative aspects, I just find that offensive! I work very hard in all of my stories and am not thankful about receiving diatribes! I mean, who likes to be insulted about their work?! Not me.

By the way Matt, I didn't forget; in fact, I remember what happened to each of Jessie and James's Pokémon. Let's just say that the two met up with them at some point and recaptured them after the hunter was arrested.

Unfortunately Jazz, this website apparently censors links; that's why whatever you gave me turned out incomplete (except for the one for YouTube itself). By the way, I tried the link you gave me, but it didn't work (I removed all the spaces).

I did manage to find this (remove spaces and extraneous punctuation): www .youtube.!com./ watch?v=WyZbrx53OPI

Look over it (or at least the scene you want). If it's okay, tell me but if it's not...you'll have to give me the link you tried to give me with a lot of spaces (like the one above).

FYI: shounen-ai means boyxboy (shounen=boy and ai=love). However, unlike yaoi, it is light, fluffy and barely any 'action' occurs between them (if you know what I mean). If you don't like that kind of stuff, it's okay for you to stop reading but if you do...enjoy! :D

Anyways, I'll do that for you, WordSmyth but for the Pokémon translations only; you still have to wait until the end in order to see the moves/jutsus. Here they are:

Forms: Kabigon (Snorlax)

"Hey! Long time no see!" The three turned to find...

...Zorua emerging out of the bushes, grinning ecstatically. "Tsutaaja, what are you doing here?"

The mentioned crossed her arms. "I decided to start a little journey of my own."

The fox appeared shocked. "You...You can speak human?!"

The one in question quirked a brow. "So can you. And it's just Telepathy; we're not actually talking."

His eyes only widened even further. "I know, but the last time we met, you could only communicate in Pokémonese!"

"Pokémonese?!" Naruto exclaimed.

"That's the name of our language." The fennec replied. "It sounds like we're only saying our names, but underneath those simple noises lies a universal idiom that we all can understand."

The reptile shrugged. "Not telling."

"Fine!" The cub sighed. "When you're dead-set on not telling something to anyone, there's no way to get it out of you! Geez!"

The accused smirked. "Thanks for the compliment."

"Yeah right...You're so mean, Tsutaaja!" The kit groaned.

"That's exactly what I said earlier!" The Uzumaki voiced.

The ivy snake smiled, unfazed by the rebuking. "How did you three meet?"

The pup beamed. "Oh! Well, I played a prank on multiple shinobi which caused Sasuke to pursue me. We fought for a while and ended up in a stalemate of sorts before Naruto and three others joined him. Meema got angry after seeing me getting hurt and swore to kill all of them but when she saw me protecting them, she ceased. After a few threats, we made our way to Konohagakure, their village, so I could apologize for my misdeeds. I participated in an illusion contest against Naruto that I won before a scout summoned us to the Hokage, their leader, who had fallen ill. After healing her, I received pardon from everyone and even got this headband to signify my allegiance! Cool, huh?"

The ivy snake shook her head fondly. "I didn't ask for you to tell me all that you went through, but that does explain a lot."

The speaker huffed. "And I wasted all that time for nothing."

The other shrugged. "So does that mean you and your mother will be staying?"

"Yep!" The quadrupedal beamed. "Enough about me; what happened with you? How was the Kalos League?"

She sighed. "It didn't go as expected."

"What happened? Didn't you kick the butts of all your opposers during the preliminaries?" The kit interrogated.

"Yep."

"And the semifinals?"

"Yep."

"THEN WHAT HAPPENED?!"

"Just let me speak!" The fox hushed instantaneously at the harsh glare she gave him.

"Okay." He whimpered. "Shoot."

"For starters, my trainer reminds me of you." The speaker turned to the blond.

"Me?!" The ninja gestured to himself. "Thanks for the compliment!"

The progeny bursted out laughing. "That was supposed to be an insult, you know!"

"HOW?!"

The biped huffed. "You're both idiots."

"I'M NOT AN IDIOT!" The flaxen declared indignantly.

"So I'm not alone in thinking that." Sasuke commented.

"SHUT UP TEME!"

"You both thought I'm a guy even though the fact that I'm a girl was revealed to each of you!" The female screamed.

The metamorphose chuckled. "He was always a little dimwitted." The creature chided as he became a short boy who was tanned throughout his body. He wore red traveling shoes below dark jeans and a short sleeved jacket. Black and red fingerless gloves adorned his hands. The cap that sat on his head smothered black locks. "That's Ash Ketchum for you! Anyways, what happened? Didn't you beat all six of the challenger's Pokémon and single-handily win the entire tournament?!"

"No, because he left me in his room before the match even started." The serpent deadpanned, her blazing orbs betraying her stoic visage.

Zorua began snickering before falling onto his back, holding his stomach in a vain attempt to control himself. "HAHAHA! THAT'S SO HILARIOUS!"

"Shut. Up." The endotherm seethed.

Naruto joined in the fray. "HE'S RIGHT! THAT'S TOO GOOD!"

The snake leered hard at the whiskered. "Do you want to end up like Team Rocket?" The shinobi immediately ceased.

"You guys met them earlier?" The kit inquired, brow quirked.

"Yeah." The raven confirmed. "We were supposed to gather intel on them." The swordsman stared at the guilty pointedly who simply exchanged an indifferent glance.

"I can tell you about them." The accused shrugged. "They're a gang of thugs originating from the Kanto region in our world who seek to conquer the globe by assembling an army of Pokémon for their boss Giovanni. Seeing how strong my trainer's Pikachu was at the beginning of his journey, they began to stalk them as the duo traveled. Those criminals—mainly Jessie, James, and Nyarth—devised many schemes in an attempt to capture their target. In the process, they caused Ash and his friends pain both physical and emotional countless times."

"Wow..." The humans trailed. "Wait, why do they call you 'Kusa no Hebi'?"

The questioned shut her orbs before reopening them slowly. "That's my species name. However, they say it like that to 'curse' me in a way which I find completely ineffective."

"Here." The rouge morphed into a Delibird, retrieving the Zukan before tossing it toward the Uchiha. "Point it toward her and turn it on."

The male did just that and was greeted by a series of images concerning the ivy imitate. "Tsutaaja, the Grass Snake Pokémon. It is very intelligent and calm. Being exposed to lots of sunlight makes its movements swifter."

The tanned gaped. "Woah..."

"Despite all that though, you still consider him to be an idiot." The sable stated.

The squamata crossed her arms. "Who in the world falls for basically the same tricks over seven hundred times?!" The others were stunned.

"SEVEN HUNDRED?!" The impressionist shrieked.

"That's many? What an idiot."

"I can't be that stupid!" The Kyuubi holder protested.

"Keep in mind that he's only eleven." Tsutaaja huffed. "But yeah, he's brainless."

"By the way, if you didn't fight in the title match...who did in your place?" The trickster demanded.

The replier slapped her temples. "...Kabigon."

The incognito succumbed into fits of laughter. "KABIGON?!" A magenta light overtook him, changing him into a chubby bear covered in teal fur that encompassed pointy ears above a cream face sporting shut lids which matched the color of its stomach. "I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THE ALL-POWERFUL TSUTAAJA WAS REPLACED BY A KABIGON!"

The mentioned glowered. "It's not that he's weak, he's just lazy; he fell asleep during the battle, forcing his defeat via default."

"Why didn't you just step in and take over?"

The female scowled. "That's against the rules; even if I were to take Kabigon's place, Ash would have been disqualified for bringing in a Pokémon that wasn't registered to fight."

"How did that even happen in the first place?!" The furry wondered.

A tick mark became prominent on the reptile's forehead. "He mistakenly took Kabigon's Pokéball instead of mine!"

"That's forgivable; after all, they all do look like Sasuke's crest." The two stared at the emblem upon the raven's back.

He narrowed his eyes at the mention. "Hn."

"What's that supposed to mean?!"

"I know, right?" The flaxen agreed.

"Not mine." The creature brought up. "After you and your mother left, my original Pokéball broke due to the idiot's carelessness."

"So you're free now?!"

"Let me finish!" She yelled. "Cilan gave me a Leaf Ball in exchange for my ruined one; it's currently mine."

"You mean this?" He shifted into a sphere with the characteristic ebon divide and white hemisphere, solely distinguished by the green stop sporting a verdant front darker than the rest in the midst.

"Yep. It's especially designed for grass-types. It was Ash's stupidity for mixing them up! I had to watch him lose the chance of fulfilling his dream...again!"

"So that's why he's still on a journey." The kitsune mused.

"Partially."

"Okay..." The cub trailed before brightening. "Why don't you join Meema and me in allying with their village? I mean it's called Konohagakure and look at you!" The natives gazed at her curiously.

"No, I can't. It's okay for you two because you're both wild...but I still belong to my trainer."

"Ash?! I thought you were rebuking him just earlier by calling him an idiot!"

The serpent shook her head. "Even though he is, he's still my friend; his happy-go-lucky personality is refreshing and I can't bear to align myself with another group while I'm still with him."

"Aww." Zorua and Naruto sulked while the stoic grunted.

"However..." the two lifted their spirits, "that doesn't mean I can't join you guys as long as I'm still loyal to Ash. After all, he's the one who even allowed me here."

"Wait, is he near?" The fox swiveled his neck rapidly. "Oh the pranks I'll pull on him..." His face grew dark.

"No; he allowed me to journey on my own."

"REALLY?!"

"Yeah." The snake nodded. "When he saw me sulking one day, he asked what was wrong. I told him that I missed being able to travel. Sympathizing after he interpreted what I had said, he was about to release me and let me go when I spoke with him—he was quite suprised—about how I craved freedom yet wanted to stay with him and there you go."

"Yet you were insulting him earlier..."

She shrugged indifferently. "It's an undeniable fact but despite being a total moron, he has a good heart and that's what I love about him."

"Oh yeah! Didn't you defeat Arceus—the Pokémon God—with Return, a move that's supposed to signify the bond between trainer and Pokémon?!"

"Yep."

The fennec grinned. "That means if you knew Frustration, its counterpart, it would be extremely weak!"

The biped huffed. "I do know both and no, both have the same power."

"WHAT?!" The blond exclaimed. "DOES THAT MEAN YOU HAVE A LOVE-HATE RELATIONSHIP WITH ASH?! HOW IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE TO FEEL BOTH WAYS ABOUT THE SAME PERSON?!"

The serpent face-palmed. "Who said that?"

Her partner's eyes widened in sock. "You had multiple trainers?!"

"It's understandable for you not to know since you weren't there, but yes; I had two, including Ash."

"Who's the first one?"

Right as Tsutaaja opened her mouth, a voice rang out from behind the surrounding bushes. "What are you doing here?"

How was it?
