Pokémon: The Prism League Chapter Two : Returning to the Team
Disclaimer: I do not own Pokémon.
As the day was coming to an end after the battle with Team Rocket the group returned to Ash's house for the night. The young trainers now sat in Ash's room dressed in their pajamas when Ash who had left to use the video phone returned to his friend sitting in a circle helping themselves to the snacks Mrs Ketchum had left for them.
"Hey, you guys couldn't wait for me to get back?" Ash cried out.
"Relax we saved you some." Brock said tossing Ash a bag of chips as he joined his friends.
"Complaining just because he didn't get his food first, such a little kid." Iris said while chewing on a candy bar.
"So Ash what are your plans for training tomorrow?" Dawn asked.
"Actually I can't start training just yet." Ash replied.
"What, why not?" Dawn asked surprised, knowing Ash to always jump right into his training.
"Because I have to get the rest of my Pokémon." Ash told the coördinator.
"The rest of your Pokémon?" Everyone except Misty, Brock and Tracy said confused.
"I thought all your Pokémon were here in Pallet Town?" Said Iris.
"Most of them are, but I have other Pokémon that I haven't seen in a while and now is the perfect time to bring them back, because if I want to have a chance of winning the Prism League I'll need my team at full strength."
"Wow, planning ahead, thinking things through, hard to belive this is really Ash." Misty said with a sly grin.
"Give me some credit will you." Ash groaned as his friends began laughing. "Anyway, you guys up for a trip around Kanto and Johto?"
"Sounds good to me." Brock.
"Yeah, it'll be great all of us traveling together!" Dawn said cheerfully.
"It will be just like old times." Said May.
"And I really wanted to do some sight-seeing here in Kanto, so this is perfect." Iris said excited.
"Great, then it looks we're all in." Stated Ash.
"Almost all of us, sorry Ash but I need to stay here to finish my research." Said Gary.
"Ahh man, that's to bad." Ash said disappointed.
"But tell you what, how about a battle before you guys head out tomorrow?"
"Really, sounds good!" Said Ash his enthusiasm being sparked.
"Yeah let's see if your still as eager when I'm wiping the floor with you Ashy-boy."
"What, we'll see about that, right Pikachu?" Ash turned to Pikachu who was sitting with Axew and Piplup enjoying a plate of cookies.
"Pika?" (What?) Pikachu asked with a mouth full of cookies having not been paying attention causing everyone to fall over.
"Don't worry about it Pikachu, I'll tell you later." Ash sweat-dropped.
The next morning everyone woke up to a breakfast buffet prepared by Brock, Cilan and Mrs Ketchum.
"Wow this is amazing!" Ash said enjoying the meal made by his three favorite cooks.
"Yeah, three great chefs makes for one really great meal." Said Misty.
"I'm glad you all like it." Mrs Ketchum said with glee.
"It does a chef's heart good to know their work is appreciated by those with a well refined palate." Said Cilan.
"Cilan I couldn't agree more." Brock said to his fellow cook.
The teens finished their breakfast and began to get ready for the day's journey getting dressed, gathering their bags and Dawn trying to tame her bed-head.
Outside the Ketchum house everyone had gathered on the front porch with Ash and Gary taking up opposite points for their battle. Suddenly everyone turned to the sound of motorcycle approaching. "Perfect timing." Said Ash. A closer looked reviled the rider to be Officer Jenny and in her sidecar was Squirtle
"Hey look It's Squirtle." Said May and Misty seeing Ash's first water Pokémon riding in the sidecar.
"And it's Officer Jenny!" Brock cheered with hearts in his eyes.
"Hey Ash, glad I got here before you left." Jenny said getting off her bike.
"Hey Jenny, hey Squirtle good to see you. Ash said as he hugged the turtle Pokémon.
"After you called last night Squirtle wanted to get here as quick as possible.
"Thanks Jenny, you guys got here just in time for a battle." Said Ash.
"Perfect Squirtle has been dying to have a battle." Said Jenny.
"And I've been dying to see you again my dear Officer Jenny!" Brock said passionately taking Jenny's hand.
"Oh Brock so nice to see you again." Jenny said laughing uncomfortably.
"Hey what's wrong with Brock?" Iris asked watching the breeder go on a rant of love.
"This is normal for Brock that's what's wrong." Dawn groaned.
"Oh Jenny to have you here with me now is like dream from which I never wish to wake!" Brock said passionately then cringed in pain as both his ears were being pulled.
"And we're your worst nightmares!" Misty and Max said together as they each pulled on one of Brock's ears.
Brock let out a painful gasp as he felt the familiar pain of Crogunk's Poison Jab. "I take it back... someone wake me up." Brock said through the pain falling to the ground before being pulled away by Misty, Max and Crogunk.
"Is he going to be alright? Iris asked with a look of shock.
"He'll be fine, he's used to it by now." May said with a sigh before turning back to Ash and Gary.
"Ok Gary, I'm going with Squirtle." Ash said as Squirtle took its place to battle.
"Pi pika pikachu!" (Go get him Squirtle!) Pikachu cheered for its friend.
"Alright then, lets go Arcanine!" Gary called throwing his pokeball releasing the fire type. "Arc!" (Ready!)
"Why would Gary chose a fire type to battle a water type like Squirtle?" Dawn asked confused.
"I think he's planning to use Arcanine's speed to get the better of Squirtle." Max said examining the two Pokémon's strengths.
"And Gary's Pokémon are no push overs, this will be a tough battle for both of them. Misty said being the most familiar with both trainer's battling skills
"Brock can you ref for us?" Ash asked the older teen.
"Sure thing." Said Brock taking his place between the two trainers
"He recovered fast." Iris said surprised to see Brock back on his feet.
"This will be a one on one battle with no substations and no time limit begin!" Brock said signaling the match to start.
"Alright Squirtle lets start with out with Water Gun!" Ash ordered. Squirtle fired a powerful shot of water at Arcanine.
"Dodge and use Flamethrower!" Said Gary. Arcanine jumped out-of-the-way of the attack then unleashed a powerful blast of fire from its mouth. Squirtle quickly receded into its shell as the flames hit it reducing the damage to almost nothing. "Now use Fire Fang!" Arcanine's teeth became cloaked in flames then with one quick movement grabbed Squirtle in its fire filled jaws.
"Quick Squirtle use Hydro Pump!" Ash said thinking fast. Squirtle began to spin rapidly still in its shell and fired four high pressure streams of water each striking Arcanine in the face as the water type continued to spin. Arcanine was forced to release the tiny turtle to avoid more damage allowing Squirtle to leave its shell.
"Arcanine use Flamethrower!" The fire type once again fired a burst of flames from it mouth.
"Counter with BubbleBeam!" Squirtle unleashed a spray of energised bubbles blasting through the Flamethrower striking Arcanine causing it to howl in pain.
"Wow those two don't kid around when it come to battling." Said Iris as she watched the battle amazed.
"Ash always gives it everything he's got, but Gary isn't about take it easy ether. Stated May.
"Yes I sense a powerful rivalry fueling their battle recipes." Said Cilan.
"Cilan can you ever just say what you mean?" Misty groaned still not use to the connoisseur's terms.
"My mistake, I simple ment that they seem to make one another battle harder."
"Not surprising, they've been rivals since they started their journeys." Tracy explained.
"You can tell nether one of them is about to back down." Dawn said watching the battle continue.
"Arcanine use ExtremeSpeed!" Gary commanded. Arcanine charged forward at blinding speeds.
"Squirtle use Water Gun rapid fire!" Squirtle began firing off Water Gun attacks one after another each being dodged easily with Arcanine's amazing speed.
Arcanine smashed into Squirtle sending the water type flying into the air leaving it wide open. "Flamethrower!" Arcanine unleashed another burst of fire but this time Squirtle was unable to defend itself taking the full force of the attack.
"Squirtle!" Ash called out worried.
"Now Arcanine use Flame Wheel! Gary ordered. Arcanine charged forward then became surrounded in a cloak of fire and tackled Squirtle once again.
"Squirtle are you Ok?" Ash asked his Pokémon.
"Lets finish this with Fire Blast!" Gary told Arcanine.
"Oh no, if this hits it'll all be over!" Dawn gasped.
"Ash has to do something quick!" Said Tracy.
Ash watch as Arcanine readied itself for its next attack while Squirtle was struggling to its feet. "Squirtle I now you can do it!"
"Pika pika!" (That's right!)
Hearing the encouragement of its friends Squirtle rose to its feet standing tall then began glowing bright white. Everyone gasped as they watch Squirtle body begin to change even Arcanine. Squirtle had grown several inches taller its tail had become large and furry and a pair of ears sprouted on top of Squirtles head matching it tail. "Wartortle." The new Pokémon exclaimed.
"Wow Squirtle evolved! Dawn said amazed.
"And it couldn't have happened at a better time!" May cheered.
"This battle has just taken a very interesting turn." Said Cilan.
"Awesome, Wartortle!" Ash said taking out his Pokedex and scanning his new Pokémon.
Wartortle the turtle Pokémon, It is said to live 10,000 years and its furry tail is a popular symbol of longevity.
Wartortle pulled one of its arms into its shell before pulled out its signature Squrtle Squad sunglass and through them on. "Tortle Wartortle!" (Time to get serious!)
"You got that right!" Ash said turning his hat around.
"Arcanine Fire Blast quick!" Gary ordered.
"Wartortle use BubbleBeam!" Ash commanded with renew confidence.
Arcanine fired a burst of flames that took the shape of a star while Wartortle fired energized bubbles that burst through the fire attack hitting Arcanine. "Try a Flamewheel!" Arcanine charged forward covered in flames. Wartotle's tail began to glow with a blue aura then a spiral of water erupted from the turtle's furry tail striking Arcanine dosing the flames and doing even more damage to the fire type.
"What was that?" Iris asked after seeing the unfamiliar move.
"That was Aqua Tail!" May said knowing the move her own Wartortle uses.
"Nice job Wartortle you learned Aqua Tail, now finish this with Skull Bash!" Ash ordered.
"War!" (Right!) Wartortle launched itself at high-speed smashing head first into Arcanine's causing it to growl in pain then drop to the ground with swirls in its eyes.
"Arcanine!" Gary called out to his fallen Pokémon.
"Arcanine is unable to battle, that means the victors are Wartotle and Ash!" Brock said giving Ash the victory.
"Way to go Wartortle!" Ash Cheered.
"Chu pika pi!" (You did great!)
"Tortle War." (Thanks guys.) Wartortle said rubbing the back of its head a little embarrassed.
"You did well Arcanine, now take a good rest." Gary said returning his Pokémon to its pokeball.
"That battle was amazing!" Dawn said still in aw of the battle.
"You two were great." May said to both trainers.
"I forgot how impressive a battle between you two could be. Said Brock.
"And Squirtle evolving was pretty cool." Said Max.
"Yeah it was great battle, you did good Ash." Said Gary.
"Thanks Gary,so did you and this was the perfect way to start off my training.
"Speaking of which I think it's time we all get going." Brock reminded the younger trainer.
"Yeah we should." Ash said recalling Wartortle to its pokeball and place it in his backpack before Ash had left the lab yesterday Professor Oak had deactivated the pokeball restriction on Ash's pokedex allowing Ash to keep all his Pokémon with him. "And here's our ride." Ash unhooked a Pokeball from his belt and released Charizard.
"We're riding on Charizard?" Asked Dawn.
"Yeah I want to get my Pokémon together as quick as possible and if we fly it will only take a few days."
"You mean we get to actually ride on Charizard?" Iris asked excited.
"Well I was kind of hoping you and Cilan could ride on Dragonite." Ash informed Iris.
"Awww but I wanted to ride on Charizard!" Iris looked up at Charizard with stars in her eyes while Charizard just looked confused.
"Iris I hate to break it to you, but Charizard isn't a dragon type." Ash tried to explain.
"Ash your such a kid, you can't even tell your own Pokemon's type." Iris said as she was still marveling at Charizard who was starting to get annoyed.
"Could you please just call out Dragonite?" Ash asked giving up on correcting Iris.
"Oh alright, Dragonite come on out." Iris released the Dragon who appeared with a loud growl. "Dragonite could you give me and Cilan a ride?" Dragonite turned away being fine with taking orders in battles but not liking the idea of being its trainer's personal ride. "Please Dragonite." Iris asked again.
"Ax Axew Axew Ax." (Come on just do it.) Said Axew poking its head out from Iris's hair. Dragonite turned back and bent down signaling Iris to get on.
"Thank you Dragonite, come on Cilan hop up." Iris said to the connoisseur.
"Iris while I'm all for flying I don't belive the safest means of flight is on Dragonite." Cilan said with a worried look.
"Oh come on." Iris groaned dragging her friend up on to the dragon. "You ready to go Ash?" Iris asked seeing Ash help the others up on to Charizard.
"Yeah so let's get going!" Ash said giving Charizard the signal to take off.
The two dragons took to the sky and in moment were soaring high above Pallet Town. "I still don't think this is safe!" Cilan cried out in terror.
After a short flight thanks to the speed of Charizard and Dragonite the group arrived at their first destination just outside the Viridian forest.
"Thank goodness." Cilan said relived to be back on the ground.
"Come on Cilan it wasn't that bad." Said Iris.
"Ash do we really have to go in there?" Misty asked looking to the forest shaking violently.
"Of course we do, I need to find Pidgeot." Ash stated.
"But then why can't we just fly over the forest?" Misty groaned.
"It's best we go on foot, if Pidgeot's flock saw Charizard and Dragonite they would probably think we were a threat and attack. Brock explained.
"Brock's right so we better get going." Ash said as he and Brock pulled the displeased water trainer along.
"Hey Tracy, what wrong with Misty?" Dawn asked the older teen.
"Well Misty gets kind of bugged by what live's in the forest." Tracy said with a sweat drop.
Dawn gave Tracy another confused looked "What's that?"
"BUGS!" Misty screamed as the group were being chased by a swarm of Beedrill. "This is exactly why I didn't want to come in here!" The teens ran as fast as they could with the swarm still behind them.
The Beedrill began to firing a spray of tiny needles narrowly missing the teens. "They're using twinneedle!" Shouted Cilan.
"We have to get out of here!" Brock advised. Using the smoke kicked up from the Beedrill's attack Ash and the others ducked into the bushes and watched as the swarm flew past causing everyone to let out a sigh of relief.
"That was a close one." May said breathing heavy.
"No kidding." Said Max.
"Can get out of this bug infested forest now!" Misty screamed only to have her mouth covered by Tracy and Cilan.
"Keep it down Misty." Tracy hushed.
"I think it's best we get out of here and search for Pidgeot in another part of the forest." Said Brock.
"Right." Ash agreed as he and the others slowly made their way out of the bushes and continued on.
After sneaking through the woods the group came to an open field in the middle of the forest. "Now which way do we go?" Iris groaned.
"I'm not sure." Ash said truthfully.
"You mean we're lost?" Dawn asked worried.
"No we're not lost." Ash replied.
"Face it Ash we're lost again!" Misty said annoyed.
"Come on Misty take it easy." Brock tried to calm the angered red-head.
"Maybe we should go back the way we came." Iris suggested.
"I don't think that's a good idea!" Max said frantically causing everyone to turn around and see the swarm of Beedrill had returned. While out in the open the teens had nowhere to run or hide leaving them open when swarm dive-bombed them. Just before the Beedrill were about to strike a barrage of powerful wind blades struck the bug types forcing them to flee.
The teens turned to see their saviours were a flock of Pidgy, Pidgeotto and Pidgeot with one Pidgeot in the front catching Ash's eye. "Pidgeot!" Ash cheered recognising his own Pidgeot out of the flock. Hearing its trainer's voice Pidgeot flew down and took Ash and Pikachu into its wing hugging them tight. "Long time no see buddy!"
"Wow Ash's Pidgeot saved us." Iris said relived.
"Not surprising, Pidgeot was one of the most loyal Pokémon you would ever meet." Said Brock recalling Pidgeot's time with Ash.
"It truly shows the timeless bond between trainer and Pokémon." Said Cilan.
"It's great to see Pidgeot we've been looking all over the forest for you, I want you to join the team again." Ash said surprising the flying type. "So what do you say?" Pidgeot took only a moment to think then signaled a smaller Pidgeot to come over, after a few words were traded the smaller Pidgeot took Ash's Pedgeot's place at the front of the flock.
"Pid pidgeo!" (Count me in!)
"Alright good to have you back buddy!" Ash cheered.
Pidgeot bid its flock farewell who did the same for their departing leader. Ash reached into his bag and pulled out an empty pokeball tapping it on Pidgeot, the flying type was then converted to energy and was drawn into the ball. The pokeballs center became bright red then shook several time before stopping, the red light disappeared signaling a succesful capture. Ash and Pikachu looked at the pokeball with bright smiles having one of their oldest friends returne.
"Ash I'm really glad you found Pidgeot but can we please get out of this forest!" Misty shouted.
Several hours of flight later Pidgeot who had carried Ash and Pikachu while Charizard and Dragonite carrying the other landed just outside the Saffron City Gym.
"So Ash what Pokémon are we here to get?" Asked Dawn.
"We're here for my Haunter." Ash confirmed.
"Did you leave it here for training?" Asked Max
"No, the gym leader and Haunter became fast friends so I left it here for the Gym Leader Sabrina." Ash explained.
"Well good luck with getting Haunter Ash." Said Brock
"Yeah, we'll be waiting right here." Misty said standing next to Brock on the opposite side of the street from Ash and the others.
"What are you guys doing over there?" Ash shouted.
"We just think it's best to stay out here where it's safe." Brock sweat-dropped.
"Oh come on guys there's nothing to worry about." Ash said as he dragged Misty and Brock inside the gym with the others.
"What has you guys so scared?" May asked as they continued further into the building.
"It Sabrina." Misty said nervously shaking.
"Is she really that strong a Gym Leader?" Dawn asked.
"It's not her battling that scares us, it what she does after the battle." Brock said with fear in his voice.
"What do you mean?" Asked May.
"Sabrina has psychic powers and she uses them to do thing you wouldn't belive." Misty said recalling what Ash, Brock and herself had gone through.
"The first time we came here she beat Ash without even trying then she said we had to play with her." Brock said grimly.
"She shrunk us down and put us in he toy box." Misty said shaking at the memory.
"What!" Everyone but Ash said in total shock.
"Then the next time Ash challenged her we tried to run and then she turned Misty and I into dolls." Brock said as a shiver ran up his spine.
"Your saying she turned you guys into real toys!" May said not believing her own words.
Misty and Brock could only nod as they relived the horror of being turned into dolls. Each of the teens became frightened at the thought of being turned into dolls themselves all except Ash and Cilan. "I highly doubt that is what happened, there's simple no possible way a person could turn people into dolls." Cilan said thinking logically.
"Easy for you to say Cilan, you've never been stuck in a doll house." Misty said annoyed.
"Ash maybe coming here wasn't such a good idea." Dawn said hugging Piplup tight to her body.
"There's nothing to worry about guys, I talked to Sabrina last night and she was fine." Ash said trying to calm his friends as they finally came to the battlefield.
The teens shook with fright looking around the dimly lighted arena until they saw Sabrina sitting in the shadows, as the light began to illuminate her Ash and the other could see that the cold stoic look they had once feared had been replaced by a bright smile. "Ash you made it." Sabrina said waving to the trainer across the field.
"Hey Sabrina good to you." Ash said rushing up to the gym leader.
"Good to see you to and congratulations on making it into the Prism League." Sabrina praised.
"Thanks, did you tell Haunter about it?" Ash asked excited.
"I did and Haunter was thrilled to hear you were coming, but there is something you should know about Haunter." The gym leader informed.
"What's that?" Ash asked when he heard someone scream then turned around to see Dawn floating in mid-air.
"What going on!" Dawn asked frantically as she rose high above the ground.
"Piplup piplup lup!" (Someone save us!)
"Dawn relax it nothing to worry about." Ash said being the only one having an idea of what was happening.
"There's a big need to worry!" Dawn cried still floating when suddenly a Gengar appeared behind her revealing it to be the one holding Dawn up."Ahhhhh!"
"Is that? Ash began to ask amazed.
"Yep, Haunter evolved." Said Sabrina.
Gengar took notice of its old friends return and dropped Dawn in its excitement.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhh!" Dawn screamed as she fell with Brock and Tracy scrambling beneath her managing to catch her just before she hit the ground. "I don't like ghosts!" Dawn groaned.
"Gengar gengar geng!" (Ash your finally here!)
"Yeah we came to make you an official part of the team!"
"Pi pi chu pikachu?" (So your in Gengar?)
"Gar geng." (I'm in.)
"Great thank you Gengar, and thank you Sabrina!" Ash said very grateful.
"It's nothing Ash, Gengar has been such a good friend to me this is the least I can do for you both and it was nice to see you again but it looks like you friends weren't to thrilled about coming. Sabrina said notice everyone keeping their distance.
"Please forgive them, but they seem to be under the delusion that you would turn them into dolls." Said Cilan.
"I understand I did do that once before." Sabrina said feeling guilty.
"Surly you can't belive you can do something so utterly impossible." Cilan said still not believing the gym leader.
"Of course I do, I can even show you." Sabrina said as a dark smile appeared on her face and her eyes began to glow blue.
A look of worry crossed Cilan's face as Sabrina stared at him and the others then a blue aura appeared around her causing everyone to scream in terror. "Ahhhhhhhhh!"
"Just kidding!" Sabrina said as she stopped glowing and her smile returned before she burst out laughing.
"Gen gengar geng!" (I taught her that one!) Gengar said joining Sabrina in laughter.
Everyone just watched in shock and fear as the ghost type and gym leader laughed hysterically.
"Sabrina with Gengar's sense of humor." Brock said shaking.
"That could be scarier then the old Sabrina." Misty said terrified.
After a speedy exit from Saffron City Ash and his friends moved on to their next stop a fighting gym a few miles outside Celadon City. Walking through the gym Ash and the others watched as trainers worked out with their fighting type Pokémon.
"Ash what are we doing here?" May asked as the group came upon a fighting ring and watched as a Hitmonlee a Hitmontop a Hariyama and a Machoke were knockout easily by the Pokémon standing in the middle of the ring which was a Primeape.
"We came to get my Primeape." Ash said with a smile.
"That's showing them whose boss Primeape!" Said a large muscular man on the side of the ring.
"Hey Anthony!" Ash called out rushing up to the larger man.
"Hey there Ash, good to see you made it." Said Anthony.
"Yeah sorry it took so long." Ash apologised.
"Don't worry about it, Primeape wanted to do some last minute sparing anyway, Hey Primeape look who's here." Primeape turned to Anthony and saw standing next to him was his first trainer Ash. In a fit of joy Primeape leaped out of the ring and landed right on top of Ash.
"Good to see you to Primeape." Ash groaned under the weight of the Pig Monkey Pokémon.
"That's what I call tough love." Brock said watching Primeape crush Ash.
"Ash I promised you a P1 Champion Pokémon and here it is." Anthony said lifting Primeape off Ash the giving him Primeape's pokeball.
"Thanks Anthony, I know Primeape is going to be a big help in the Prism League." Ash said sincerely.
"Yeah with Primeape on your team you better win." Anthony advised.
"That just what we're gonna do!" Ash said confidently
"Primeape!" (Right!)
"That's what I like to hear!" Anthony said shaking Ash's hand.
After a long day of traveling the group reached their last destination for the day a small deserted island just off the coast of the Seafoam Islands. It was here they would find Ash's Lapras. As night fell the group set up camp, all but Ash who never turned away from the sea.
"Ash staring out at the ocean isn't going help anything." Dawn said as she and the others sat around a fire.
"I know, but the map professor Oak gave me shows that Lapras migration patterns will bring them through here tonight." Ash explained.
"Those maps are only so accurate Ash, they could be a few miles from here." Said Tracy.
"Oh man." Ash faced palmed. "I could miss Lapras all together."
"Maybe we could send out our Pokémon to find it." Dawn suggested.
"We could send every water and flying type and still not find Lapras." Said Brock.
"Brock's right we can't go searching the whole ocean." Said Misty.
"I got it!" May snapped her fingers getting an idea. "Come on out, Manaphy!"
"Mana!" exclaimed the tiny legendary Pokémon
"How's Manaphy going to help?" Asked Iris.
"Just wait and see." May said before turning to Manaphy. "Manaphy we need to find Ash's friend Lapras and we know it's somewhere near by, so I was thinking maybe if you sang then it would come to listen, sound good?"
"Good!" Manaphy said using what english it knew then hopped on to a near by rock and began to sing. Manaphy's beautiful singing traveled on the night being heard for miles.
"Great thinking May!" Ash said catching on to May's idea.
"Wow that's beautiful." Dawn said relaxed by Manaphy's song.
"Yeah it reminds me of Meloetta's singing." Iris said listening in bliss.
"I forgot how nice Manaphy's singing was." Said Max.
In a matter of moments dosens of Tentacool, Seaking, Chinchou, Wailmer, Remoraid and many other water Pokémon appeared to hear Manaphy. Suddenly on the horizon Ash could see the Pokémon he had been waiting for. "Lapras!" The herd of Lapras gather around manaphy listening to it sing While Ash Lapras swam up on shore and nuzzeled Ash and licked Pikach's cheek. "I'm glad to see you to Lapras, I came to ask you to join up with me again, would you like that?" Ash asked only to be licked lovingly. "I'll take that as yes." Ash then took out an empty pokeball tapping Lapras with it pulling the Water type inside and adding it to his team. "Alright guy now all that's left to find is." Ash said turning to his friend only to see that Manaphy singing mixed with the day's journey had put them all to sleep. "Ok maybe I'll just tell them in the morning." Ash sweat-dropped.
Two days later Ash and his friends were now on Mt. Silver being chased by a very angry Tyranitar firing Hyper Beam attacks.
"Ash I thought you said you were friends with that Pokémon!" Iris shouted as she along with the others ran for their lives.
"That's not the Tyraniatar I was talking about!" Ash explained noticing this Tyraniatar had no scar on its chest.
"Can we ever go anywhere without being attack by a wild Pokémon!" Misty asked rhetorically as another Hyper Beam narrowly missed them.
"I think that means no!" Max replied as they continued to run with Tyranitar gaining on them.
"What are we gonna do!" Dawn asked hoping for an answer.
Tyranitar began to grow annoyed by this chase and decided to end it. Jumping high in the air then landing hard Tyranitar caused an earthquake that shook the surrounding area causing everyone to lose their footing falling to the ground. Tyranitar took this as its chance to attack and went for the closet person which at that moment was Ash. Everyone turned to see Tyranitar charging another Hyper Beam this one aimed right at Ash.
"Ash lookout!" May called out
"Get out of the way!" Brock shouted.
Ash looked up to see Tyranitar was about fire it's attack when suddenly from out of nowhere it was struck by a Hyper Beam attack sending it flying across the forest. "What was that?" Ash looked to see where the attack had come from then from out of the treeline came another Tyranitar but this one Ash recognised by the scar on its chest.
"Oh no another one!" Iris screamed.
"Hold on Iris this Tyranitar is our friend." Ash informed.
"Really?" Iris asked still worried.
"Yeah, this is the Tyranitar Ash mentioned earlier." Misty explained.
"Thank you for saving us Tyranitar, you came just in time." Ash thanked the Armored Pokémon. "Raa raa taaar, ranitar." (I'm glad your alright, Larviatar.) The large Pokémon called to its child and moment later Larvitar emerged from the bushes.
"Larvitar!" Ash cheered
"Pikachu!" (Larvitar!)
"Lar, Larvitar!" (Ash Pikachu!) the little Pokémon cheered rushing up to it friends. "Tar lavitar.(I missed you.)
"We missed you to Larvitar in fact we want you to join up with us." Ash said to the tiny Pokémon.
"Larvitar, Lar Larvitar!" (Really, sounds like fun!)
"Great so your coming? Ash asked.
"Raaan, ranitar." (We're coming.) Said Tyranitar.'
"Tyranitar you want to come to?" Ash asked the larger Pokémon this time and received a nod of agreement. "Awesome, then the both of you it you it is then!" Ash cheered even more excited now.
"Wow Ash, now you've got yourself two new additions to your team Larvitar and Tyranitar." Brock stated.
"So where are we off to next?" Asked Dawn.
"Actually we got really lucky, it's right here on Mt. Silver." Ash replied.
After a short hike down the mountain Ash lead his friends to a meadow at the base of the Mountain and filling the sky above them and the flowers surrounding them were countless Butterfree.
"Wow look at them all!" Dawn marveled at the butterfly Pokémon.
"They're all so cute!" May said with glee.
"Truly a sight to behold." Said Cilan.
"Yeah for bug Pokémon they're not so bad." Agreed Misty.
"So this is where your Butterfree is Ash? Max asked the older trainer.
"Yeah, the charts Professor Oak gave me show this is where Butterfree would be and by the looks of things they were right." Ash said searching the area for his Butterfree."Now we just need to find where my Butterfree is."
"Pikachu, pi pi pika chu Pika Pika!" (Butterfree it's Pikachu and Ash come find us!) Pikachu tried calling out hoping to reach its old friend.
"Good try buddy but I don't think it would be that easy to ahhh." Ash was cut off as a Butterfree wearing a yellow scarf flew into his face.
"Pika, Pi chu Pika!" (Butterfree, I knew that would work!) Pikachu cheered.
"Butterfree!" Ash said after pulling the bug type off his face then hugged it tight. "It been a long time Pal!" Ash's Butterfree was then joined by three more Butterfree a pink one and two smaller Butterfree one pink and one purple. "Is this your family Butterfree?" Ash asked reconizing the pink Butterfree as his Butterfree's mate.
"Ree reee" (It sure is)
"Well do you and your family mite want to join up with me?" Ash asked not wanting to seperate Butterfree and its family.
Butterfree turned to its mate and children telling them of Ash's offern for them to join him after whick all four nodded in agreement. "Great, it's good to have you back Butterfree!" Ash cheered.
"Ree reee ree!" (It's good to be back!)
Ash removed four empty Pokeballs from his belt the placed each member Butterfree's family inside their own pokeball.
"Pika pika chu pikachu!" (Great everyone is back together now!) Pikachu cheered having all its old teammates return.
"That right Pikachu the old team is back together!" Ash said with greater confidence than ever before.
"Way to go Ash, with all you Pokémon back your going to be tougher than ever to beat. Misty congratulated
"Misty's right this is the strongest team you have ever had." Brock agreed.
"This has truly added a powerful spice to your battling abilities Ash." Cilan stated.
"Your going to be amazing at the Prism League with so many powerful Pokémon now!" Dawn said excited.
"So is it time to head back and start training?" Asked May.
"Not just yet, there is one more place we need to go." Ash said surprising everyone.
"But Ash I thought you already found all of your Pokémon?" Said Iris.
"I have, but there is one new Pokémon I want to ask to join me!" Ash explained.
"What Pokémon is that?" Dawn asked.
"I'll tell you on the way there." Ash replied.
"Well can you at least tell us where we're going?" Iris asked.
"To Alto Mare." Ash stated.
If I had known everyone wanted Ash's other Pokémon to come back so badly I would have put this chapter out with the first one. I know most of you can guess What Pokémon Ash is going to Alto Mare for but I promise you will be surprised by what they find. I also want to thank everyone for your reviews so far they really help. Also sorry about the little mix up with Gliscor but I fixed it and Gliscor is with Ash's Pokémon at the Lab in the last chapter now.
Please read and review.
