(DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN POKÉMON OR BEN 10! POKÉMON BELONGS TO GAMEFREAK/NINTENDO! BEN 10 BELONGS TO MAN OF ACTION STUDIOS/CARTOON NETWORK STUDIOS/WARNER BROS. DISCOVERY).

(It was a bright and sunny day with the RV Parked near a Tar Pit. Inside the Parked RV, Mohn is making Breakfast for him, and the kids. While Zoroark was filling food bowls for himself, Pikachu and Axew. Then Mohn called the kids).

Mohn: Rise and shine, sleepyheads. (Ash wakes up and sees his Pokétrix acting weird like an unseen force was using it).

Ash: Hey, what is up with this thing? (Then Suddenly Iris falls out of the top bunk of the bed with Axew).

Iris: Aah! Ohh! (Ash laughs at this, finding it hilarious).

Ash: Something tells me this is gonna be a good day. (Pikachu then smiles at Ash happily saying).

Pikachu: I guarantee it. (Ash, Iris, Axew, and Pikachu go to the table for breakfast).

Mohn: Hope you all are hungry. Because I have cooked up one of my world-famous breakfasts.

Ash: Uh-oh, plug your nose and kiss your tastebud's goodbye. (Ash said sticking his tongue out and holding throat in making a face. Then Mohn puts down a plate of food in front of Ash and Iris. While Zoroark does the same for Pikachu and Axew. Ash looked at his plate seeing what looked like Scrambled Eggs, Toast, and Bacon. Ash feels like this is going to be appetizing which is much different than the food Mohn usually gives him and Iris). So, is this, like, Drilbur Bacon and Dratini eggs?

Mohn: Nope, nope. Simply good old Pokémon bacon and eggs. But I understand if it does not sound good to you. (Ash and Iris begin wolfing their breakfast down without a second thought. As do Pikachu, Axew, and Zoroark once he takes a seat next to Axew. Before long they are through eating and Ash makes a burping noise in Iris' face. The RV Door opens with Iris and Axew walking out together. Iris and Axew are coughing from what Ash did).

Iris: Right in my face. Good one, Ash.

Axew: A Brand-new record.

Ash: Are you not gonna Freak out or something?

Iris: Why? It was just a joke, right? Come on, let us check out the tar pits.

Pikachu: Just relax Ash. And let us enjoy the bright and sunny day before us. (Ash shrugs his shoulders, deciding to take Pikachu's words for it. As they are walking around Ash gets bored that there is nothing really going on).

Ash: No, there must be something more exciting going on around here. (Then a School Bus comes their way. One of the tires goes flat and it stops in front of Ash, Iris, Pikachu, and Axew. They see that on the ship are a bunch of cheerleader girls).

Cheerleader Girl #1: Oh no. What are we going to do?

Cheerleader Girl #2: I wish somebody could help us. (Ash then says to Iris and Axew).

Ash: Guess that will do. (But then a Spaceship comes and lands nearby. From the ship come two old foes of Ash and the others... Celesteela the bounty hunter and Rhyperior the Criminal).

Iris: Celesteela and Rhyperior? What are they doing here?

Axew: What it is, it cannot be good.

Ash: About to get their Pokémon butts kicked, that is what. (Ash then Activates the Pokétrix as Pikachu jumps off his Shoulder as Pikachu cheers him on).

Pikachu: Go get em' Ash!

Ash: Going Hero. (Ash then goes hero).

🎵 It started when an alien device did what it did 🎵

🎵 And stuck itself upon his wrist with secrets that it hid 🎵

🎵 Now he has superpowers, he is no ordinary kid 🎵

🎵 He's Ash 150! (Ash 150!). 🎵

🎵 He'll turn into a Pokémon before your very eyes 🎵

🎵 He's slimy, freaky, fast, and strong, he is every shape and size 🎵

🎵 He's Ash 150! (Ash 150!). 🎵

🎵 Armed with Abilities, he is on the case 🎵

🎵 Fighting off evil from Earth or Ultra Space 🎵

🎵 He'll never stop 'till he Beats them in Battle🎵

🎵 'Cause he is the baddest kid to ever save the day 🎵

🎵 Ash 150! 🎵

(Iris, Axew, and Pikachu Stare Celesteela and Rhyperior Down with Ash's Pokémon of choice, Aggron. They jump out of the ship and land on the ground. Celesteela fires a Flash Cannon at Aggron, Iris, Axew, and Pikachu. Aggron responds using Iron Defense to protect them successfully. So successfully in fact that the blast sends both Celesteela and Rhyperior flying back. Aggron then turns to the Bus full of School Girls).

Aggron: Do not worry, girls, I am here... (He then turns to see that Rhyperior is coming for him and clocks him with a Mega Punch attack). Oh! (Aggron goes flying and crashes into the ground. Iris, Axew, and Pikachu at once run to his side).

Iris: Ash, are you okay?

Axew: That must have been very painful.

Pikachu: Ash, you okay best bud? (Ash is surprised by just how concerned Iris and Axew are for him, but it used to Pikachu being worried about, even after being in countless battles).

Aggron: You are worried about me? Did you get a blow to the head or something? (They hear the cheerleader girls screaming and look to see Rhyperior picking up the Bus and holding it above his head. Before throwing it at the four of them. Aggron goes and then gets back up, before using his Sand Tomb attack to create a tornado of sand that floats up to the bus and catches it. Before lowering down slowly before dissipating upon setting the bus on the Ground. Then Aggron, Axew, Pikachu, and Iris dodge multiple Air Slash attacks from Celesteela. One Air Slash grazes Aggron's shoulder. Celesteela keeps firing Air Slashes at Aggron who dodges them and uses Rock Tomb to make a Rocky Ledge to run and jump into the air. Then Celesteela fires multiple Flash Cannons while Aggron simply blocks them Iron Defense. Before Heavy Slamming Celesteela into the ground. Celesteela is out cold before Aggron turns to Rhyperior coming for him with Another Mega Punch coming. But then Pikachu comes to Ash's Aid, giving Rhyperior a Thunderbolt attack aimed at Rhyperior's horn that is so powerful that Rhyperior stops in its tracks, completely paralyzed. Leaving Ash in shock since he knew that Pikachu's Thunderbolt attack would have had no effect on Rhyperior at all. Leaving him to ask). Pikachu, that was incredible! How did you do that? That would have been completely ineffective on him. (Pikachu simply smiles confidently and says).

Pikachu: Hey, I am no slouch. You may be keeping me out of the action to protect me, but I have training hard to be more useful to you and the rest of Team Ketchum. (Pikachu then gives Ash a Peace Sign. Ash just smiles back impressed. Then he turns to the still Paralyzed Rhyperior and repeatedly delivers one Mega Punch to Rhyperior after another. Not giving Rhyperior a Chance to counterattack. As the Cheerleader girls cheer him on. Pikachu is also cheering Ash on with Pink Pom Poms). Way to go Ash! Keep it up! (Ash delivers more Mega Punch attacks to Rhyperior before giving him an enormously powerful Mega Punch that sends him flying towards a dumpster. Iris then uses her magic to get her hand to glow with blue magic energy. Causing the Open lid Dumpster to go flying and catch Rhyperior. Before closing and shrinking down before falling to Iris and Axew's feet).

Axew: Nice Job Iris. (Iris simply smacked her hands together and walked away with Axew back on her shoulder. Then She, Axew, Aggron, and Pikachu see Celesteela take a Cheerleader girl hostage. Holding her against its chest. Before aiming a Flash Cannon at them). You have a ton to learn about school spirit. (Aggron fires a Single Stone Edge into Celesteela's Rocket booster arm. Causing it to explode, giving the girl a chance to run away before Celesteela grabs her again. Then Aggron fires More Stone Edges at Celesteela causing it to lose control and fly into the air before falling towards the Lake sized Tar Pits as Aggron notes). This could get sticky. (Celesteela then falls into the Tar Pits. Then Aggron turns to the bus and remembers that they have a Flat tire. Aggron uses his Iron Defense to create a tire rim around the flat tire rim before telling the girls). You are good to go.

Cheerleader Girls: Yes! Whoo-hoo!

Cheerleader Girl #2: You are impressive.

Cheerleader Girl #1: And so cute. (Then Aggron gets a surprise when a Cheerleader girl holding her Pokémon in her arms walks over, and this was a girl and Pokémon he recognized. So much so, that he found himself unable to speak. It Was Lillie and Snowy. Ash looked shocked and surprised to see them, Lillie especially, remembering how he felt around her. Lillie played with her hair and Snowy winked at them before the bus took off. It was only at that moment did Ash find his voice again).

Aggron: Lillie? Snowy? (But then Iris reminds Ash).

Iris: Did she not break your heart after we beat that Hisuian Zoroark in the desert?

Aggron: Thanks for reminding me. (Ash said remembering that Lillie broke his heart after they defeated the Hisuian Zoroark back in the Kalos Canyon. Another reason was that she was more interested in his Midnight Lycanroc Pokémon Form. But still...).

Pikachu: Talk About a Dream Encounter.


(Later that Day, in the Northern Star, Mohn is driving along, while Ash is checking out his Pokétrix, noticing something weird going on with it, when Mohn says).

Mohn: Hey, who is up for pizza and games at "Pizza an' Play"? (Iris and Axew Smile as Does Ash and Pikachu).

Ash: This day just keeps getting better and better. (And it did, with Ash and Pikachu eating Pizza, tossing a ball at the Machine to earn points in the slot machine, then Winning a Jackpot of tickets with him, Iris, Axew, and Pikachu dancing happily, getting a t-shirt that says "1,000,000" Customer from two girls who kissed each of his cheeks making him get a goofy look on his face. It was truly the perfect day for Ash).


(Later, the Ketchum's are exiting the establishment when Ash Remembers the condition of his Pokétrix).

Ash: Oh, yes, with everything going on, I almost forgot to show you. The Pokétrix has been acting very weird. (As if on cue, the Pokétrix begins beeping. But Mohn and Zoroark Shrug it off).

Mohn: Hmm. Well, I would not worry about it, I am sure it is nothing.

Zoroark: Why worry about something if there is nothing to worry about?

Pikachu: I agree with Mohn and Zoroark here Ash. I do not see any real problems here.

Axew: Let us just enjoy the day ahead of us. (Before Ash could press on here, they heard a truck horn going off. They see a truck come before turning and two boxes come out of the truck. The box's Contents spill out in the street and Ash runs over to see what it is. Before he becomes amazed at what he saw).

Ash: Really? Whoa, "Smash Bros Ultimate". This game is not supposed to be out for, like, a year. I by chance should return these, should not I?

Mohn: No, that truck is long gone, I say play away. (Ash Smiles at the amazing fortune that has befallen him recently).

Ash: Could this day get any better? (While the Pokétrix continues beeping and flashing here).


(Later, with the RV parked in a Park Like area, with Ash lounging in a deck chair with a Headset on, and a tv hooked to his gaming controller, so Ash Can play his new game, "Smash Bros Ultimate").

Mohn: There. That should enhance your gaming experience a bit.

Zoroark: You now have Maximum Comfort for Maximum Comfort.

Iris: Want me to whip up a couple of snacks for you?

Axew: Any Particular snack in Mind Ash? (Ash is very much enjoying how they are practically spoiling him and does not hesitate to insult Iris to her face).

Ash: Sounds great, pukeface. (Iris strangely just shrugs it off).

Iris: Oh Ash. (She, Axew, Mohn, and Zoroark walk off. Then Pikachu says).

Pikachu: I will go and help them out. Okay best bud? (Ash nods and Pikachu goes to join the others in the RV).

Ash: Do not know why you all are being so nice... But keep up the excellent work. (Ash begins playing his new game, as Mohn closes the RV Door behind him. Then running towards the RV from a nearby Distance is for a weird reason, another Iris, Axew, Pikachu, Mohn and Zoroark. They run up to Ash and then Iris tells him).

Iris: Yo, mega dweeb, get off your butt and follow us now.

Pikachu: Trust us Ash. You are in real Danger!

Ash: Time to go Hero?

Iris: Duh, I would say so.

Axew: No Question.

Ash: Then let us do it. Smash Bros! (Ash turns to his Game where is he in the middle of a fight between Richter Belmont (His Character) vs. Snake). And I love this game. (Then the RV doors open and the other Iris, Axew, Pikachu, Mohn and Zoroark come out. But upon seeing their duplicates, they drop the food and snacks they were carrying and go to attack their respective doppelgangers. Iris goes and attacks her doppelganger from behind as does Mohn, Zoroark, Axew, and Pikachu. Dragging them into the Northern Star and closing the door. While Ash just stays fixated on his game. They keep wrestling each other around until one of the Iris' Face ends up pressed against the window and shouts to Ash).

Iris: Ash, help! (But Ash completely misinterprets Iris' call for help).

Ash: Since when does it take two people to make nachos? (Ash goes back to the game. Then the doors open, and all the doppelgangers tumble out onto the ground, wrestling with each other. Ash finally hears and looks to what is going on. His widen and two copies of everyone and asks). Uh, what is going on?

All Mohn/Iris: Ash, help! They are fakes.

Both Pikachu's: You are in grave danger!

Both Axew's: Help Us! (But Ash is in complete shock and confusion here).

Ash: Hey, what is going on? (Then one of the Mohn's grabs Ash and takes him into the Northern Star).

Mohn: We will have to explain on the way. Get in. (In No time the RV is driving away with only Mohn, Iris, Axew, Pikachu and Zoroark present).


(As they are driving away from the Scene, Ash's head is full of questions on what is going on here. And he makes it clear that he wants answers at once).

Ash: Somebody better start explaining, or I am out of here. Why are there two Grandpas, two Iris', and two of our Pokémon?

Mohn: The others are fakes, imposters created to keep an eye on you.

Zoroark: Ash none of this is real in a sense. (Then Iris takes over explaining it).


(A Flashback begins).

Iris: This all started with you not having the best of days. (A Flashback shows Ash banging his head on the ceiling after waking up one morning, due to sleeping on the top bunk, then another shows his Super Smash Bros' underpants falling in front of the bus of Cheerleader girls who are laughing at him. Then a flashback shows Ash being the victim of an energy blast from two wielded blasters). Things only got worse after a sneak attack by Team Plasma. (Next a Flashback shows Ash going into a Team Plasma Limousine by two employees as Mohn, Iris, Axew, Pikachu, and Zoroark watch on helplessly.).


(Back in the Present, Ash interrupts her saying).

Ash: Whoa, whoa, whoa. If Team Plasma captured me, I think I would remember. (But then Mohn interjects him).

Mohn: No, Ash, you would not, because they hooked you up to... (But before Mohn can finish, Ash looks out the window and sees a Car coming their way and fast).

Ash: Look out! (It is too late for Mohn to get them away from the Car before it... WHAM! They are victims of the Car bashing!).


(The Car Bashes right through the middle of the Northern Star, cutting it in half! The Car comes to a Stop. The Car Door opens and out comes Looker of the International Police. He then yells to his men).

Looker: Secure the area. Move, move, move! (The Swarm out of the Car and head to the wreckage of the Northern Star. Ash comes out stumbling but is otherwise okay. The International Policemen all go to him and point their Blasters at him. Then he comes to and sees what is going on here as the Men part to allow Ash to see Looker is here as he asks).

Ash: Looker, what are you doing?

Looker: Saving your Fanny. Sorry for the drastic measures, Ash. (Then he helps Ash to his feet). But if they saw us coming, who knows what they would have done to you.

Ash: Who are you talking about? (He then turns to see Mohn, Iris, Axew, Pikachu, and Zoroark from the smoke, they look to be okay as well. Before Looker grabs Ash by the arm and forces him behind him). Aah!

Looker: They are you not family, Ash. They are Kanto Muk ... (Looker's Men swarm Mohn and the others forcing them to raise their hands in surrender). Pokémon shapeshifters working for Necrozma. (Ash is so confused here before replays the explanation that Mohn and the others gave him).

Ash: But... but they said the other grandpa and Iris were fakes, and that Team Plasma were behind all this.

Looker: And you believed that load of fertilizer? (Mohn rebukes this saying).

Mohn: He is lying, Ash. We are your real family.

Zoroark: We would never lie to you Ash.

Axew: Never ever.

Pikachu: I am your one true yellow partner and Best Friend. (But then they hear an all too familiar voice).

Voice: You may have stopped my minions, but you will not stop me. (They look up and see floating above them in the sky is Necrozma's ship, "The Black Prism". Then a Black Beam of light zooms out of the Ship before crashing onto the Ground. Coming from the Smoke following that is Necrozma itself. That is walking towards Ash and the others).

Looker: I hate to say, "I told you so", but... (Ash goes hero turning into Machamp).

Machamp: Yahhh! You are messing with the wrong kid, Prism face. (Machamp goes and then runs towards Necrozma ready for a beatdown. Necrozma goes into a Speeding run too. Then go and attack each other with Necrozma using a Double Handed Brick Break attack. That Machamp Blocks with his arms before collapsing beneath him. Looker watches before sending a glance to the other Ketchum's and their Pokémon who now have their hands behind their heads. Machamp leaps into the air and pounds Necrozma into the ground with its Superpower attack. Before picking Necrozma up by its arms and swings him around at an extremely fast and rapid speed using his Darkest Lariat attack to throw Necrozma into its ship. Causing multiple explosions before the ship blows up and Necrozma lands back on the ground. But it is not through yet, not by a long shot, as it pulls out its secret weapon that makes Machamp back away in fear). The Distortion World projector.

Necrozma: Now I will send you to that wretched wasteland where you sent me. (But Machamp beats Necrozma to the Punch with its Mach Punch attack. Knocking Necrozma to the ground and catches the Device in his hand).

Machamp: Sorry, Necrozma. Looks like it is just not your day. (Necrozma goes after Machamp just before he fires the Projector device that creates a portal right in front of Machamp).

Necrozma: Aaaahh! (Necrozma screams as he returns to his prison, the Distortion World. The Portal closes and Looker comes up to him).

Looker: Good. Now, if you could just use that little toy on our shape-shifting friends, our work here will be complete. (Mohn and the others panic at the sound of this).

Mohn: Ash, do not. You Need to listen to us.

Axew: Do not do this!

Pikachu: Trust us.

Zoroark: If you do, it is all over! (But then Iris says).

Iris: Forget it, Grandpa, Zoroark. Ash's too much of a lame pukeface dim-witted doofus. (Ash just hears and tunes her out...). He cannot even figure out that Necrozma would get the Pokétrix before he tried to send him into the Distortion World. (... Until he hears this comment from Iris as his eyes widen in shock. Then he knows what to do).

Machamp: Two one-way tickets to Pokémon storage coming up. (He fires the Distortion World Projector device as Looker's Men knock the Ketchum's and their Pokémon onto their stomach's).

Iris/Mohn: Ugh! (The Portal sucks up all of Looker's Men just as Mohn, Iris, and their Pokémon land on their feet. Then the Portal dissipates, leaving Looker confused by what just happened).

Looker: What are you doing?

Machamp: That Iris is telling the truth, (Then Machamp grabs Looker by the Chest and holds him tightly) which means you must be lying. (Then Looker speaks with a voice that is not his own).

Voice: How terribly clever of you. (Lookers eyes glow red and release a brief flash of light, when the flash dies down his real identity is there for Machamp to see).

Machamp: Mirage Master! Then Team Plasma is behind everything. (Mohn has gotten the key to the Shackles put on him, and Iris and is trying to get her free. Zoroark is using his claws as a makeshift key trying to get Pikachu and Axew free from their Shackles. Mohn is successful in setting Iris free as Zoroark with Pikachu's Shackles. Pikachu uses Iron Tail to free Zoroark of its Shackles, before doing the same for Axew).

Iris: That is what we have been telling you. (Then Multiple Team Plasma soldiers arrive on the scene. Armed with Laser Swords, and Shields).

Mirage Master: We needed to keep your mind preoccupied while we removed the Pokétrix. (Machamp holds up the Distortion World Projector to the Mirage Master before it melts in his hand). Having you believe this was the perfect day was one way. (Then the World around them changes to become a Nightmarish world). Now you will live your worst nightmare. (Machamp is undeterred by this).

Machamp: Nice trick, but I am still gonna kick your tin-can butt. (He winds up a hand to punch him before the Pokétrix suddenly times out turning him back into Ash).

Ash: Something tells me this day's about to go downhill.

Mohn: Let us move.

Axew: Time to get out of here!

Pikachu: Run!

Zoroark: See ya. (The group runs away, but this does not bother Mirage Master in the slightest).

Mirage Master: Go ahead and run. It will do you no good. Because I control this world. (Indeed, he shows everywhere the Ketchum's turn to run. Before long, a Giant and Larger than Life version of Mirage Master appears, towering over them. He raises his hands and causes the ground to come apart and the area fills with dust).


(Moments later, the dust settles, and the Ketchum's find themselves somewhere. Surrounded by red colored walls).

Iris: Mirage Master said he would create your worst nightmare, (Iris then asks fearfully). So... So, where are we? (Ash begins shaking in fear).

Ash: It is... (What looks like bookshelves rise from the ground one after another. And Ash knows exactly where they are) it is school! (Ash runs away screaming). Get me out of here! (Before Iris grabs him by the collar of his shirt). Aah!

Iris: Only you would fear a book. (Ash then mocks Iris by mimicking her words back at her).

Ash: Only you would fear a book. (Then Mohn and Zoroark walk past them with a Device in Mohn's hand. Ash, Iris, Pikachu, and Axew follow them. But Ash still has A Couple of questions that are still unanswered). Uh, would someone mind explaining where "here" is?

Pikachu: A very scary place Ash.

Axew: Even scarier than the Mythical Back Rooms in Urban Legend.

Iris: The scariest place of all... (She then leans in closer to Ash to yell) inside your head! (Iris then continues Mohn's explanation from earlier before the Mirage Master's/Looker's interruption).


(Flashback to earlier with Mohn's explanation).

Iris: Mirage Master wanted the Pokétrix, but to remove it, they needed time, (The Flashback shows Ash hooked up to a device including a helmet like one with his arms on pillows while Scientists work at the Pokétrix) so they used Pokémon technology that would keep you happy in dreamland while they worked to remove it. (Ash understands now what that was making the Pokétrix act like it did before).

Ash: That is why the watch was wigging out.

Iris: Fortunately, Grandpa was able to track the Pokétrix's signal (Then the flashback shows the Northern Star parked not far away from Team Plasma's castle. Inside Mohn has machines just like the one Team Plasma is using on Ash) and tap into the frequency of their dream machine, (Now Mohn, Iris, Pikachu, Axew, and Zoroark are using the Dream Machines) which let us come in here and try to fish you out. (The Flashback ends).


(Back in the present, Ash says).

Ash: All I need to do is wake up, right? So, hit me. (Iris smirks, knowing she will enjoy this). Ow! (The Screams fill the school as Ash stumbles back with him holding his foot that Iris Stomped on... Harshly!). Did not work!

Iris: Yes, Grandpa said that it would not, but you asked for it. And nor would one of Pikachu's Thunderbolts.

Axew: It was kinda funny though.

Pikachu: Sorry Ash. (Then Mohn gets their attention).

Mohn: I scanned the whole area, and there is only one glitch through which we can exit. This way.

Zoroark: Come on. (The kids catch up to Mohn and Zoroark with Ash asking).

Ash: So, what happens if we are still in here when the Pokétrix comes off?

Mohn: Then the dream and us will be no more. (Ash, Iris, Axew, and Pikachu exchange scared looks with each other). Come on. (They walk around the corner of a hallway and get a nasty surprise this time. And it was Paul Shinji coming out of another hallway. The group ducks behind the corner hoping to not have him see them as Mohn puts the device away for now).

Ash: It is Paul.

Iris: That is one tough hall monitor. (Ash then turns to his Pokétrix hoping for a little help from it).

Ash: Good thing I have my all-access pass right here. (He taps the Pokétrix only for nothing to happen. He keeps trying but gets the same result). Oh man, it is still recharging. (They look over to see Paul Standing there. He begins closing in on them as turns into his Mutated form of Paul 151. He begins chasing them down the Hallways with his Arms and wings scraping against the walls and ceilings. As Paul 151 keeps chasing them, Ash shouts), I HATE SCHOOL! (This was indeed becoming a real nightmare for Ash and the others. And what is worse, they cannot wake up from it!).


(Ash, Pikachu, Iris, Axew, Mohn, and Zoroark were running down a hallway with Paul 151 chasing them. They run around a corner with Mohn and Zoroark turning to see Paul coming out at the other end. Paul fires a Fire Blast at them. While Zoroark counters with the Most Powerful Shadow Ball attack it can give. The two attacks collide with Fire Blast overpowering the Shadow Ball. Luckily Mohn and Zoroark dodge in time to avoid the attack. They group runs into a Classroom. Iris sees there is no other door or window present).

Iris: We are stuck!

Axew: This cannot be the end of us. It just cannot. (Then Mohn with Zoroark's help pushes a table in front of the door to barricade it. Then Ash looks and sees a table with a computer on it).

Ash: What is up with this? (He sees what is on the Computer Screen). A test? Why I would rather take my chances with Paul. (Iris pushes Ash out of the way to take it for him).

Iris: I am on it. (But something goes wrong and a large group of tiles on the floor collapse revealing a very undesirable red area).

Ash: Guess that was a wrong Answer. (Then they hear a loud noise). Huh? (They see Paul 151 punching a hole in the door with his Aggron Arm. Before pulling it back to punch another hole in the wall. Ash then goes to take the quiz himself).

Iris: What are you doing?

Ash: It is multiple choice. Just choose "C" for every Answer, and you will pass. (Iris finds this to be illogical, saying).

Iris: That will not work. (But then Parts of the wall nearby begin changing. Ash then chooses the wrong answer and an even larger number of floor tiles collapse including the floor tiles under the desk used as a barricade. Zoroark almost loses his footing because of it, but Mohn saves him in time. Ash keeps answering questions correctly and more parts of the wall become what looks like a door. As Paul 151 bends a part of the once barricaded door outward. Finally, the door to escape is visible).

Ash: How do you think I got Through the third grade? (The group escapes through it. Just as Paul 151 makes into the room after knocking the door down and roars at them. With Mohn last to go, as he closes the door making it disappear before Paul 151's Fire Blast can hit them).


(The Ketchum's are now walking down another Hallway. With Mohn using the device again).

Mohn: Okay, we are close. Now I Bet we just need to... (But then bumps into something or someone). Ugh!

Ash: Trip and Drew, the school bullies. (Only this version of the two of them are much bigger and have Ears like that of trolls. Trip picks Mohn and Zoroark up in his arms).

Iris: No one bullies my grandpa or Zoroark. (Iris goes and jumps kick Trip in the Face. Only for nothing to happen, he does even react to it at all. He then grabs Iris by the leg and throws her back to the ground). Ugh!

Zoroark: Ash, please do something to help Mohn! (Ash activates the Pokétrix as Pikachu jumps to the floor).

Ash: Let us see how tough they are picking on Magmortar. (But instead of Getting Magmortar he really gets...).

Iris: Even in your dreams, you are such a dweeb. (She says seeing that Ash is the miniscule Elgyem. While Mohn is getting painful treatment from the two bullies with Drew pulling on Mohn's Underpants while Trip holds him tightly).

Axew: This is the Possible time for Elgyem.

Mohn: Oh!

Zoroark: Mohn!

Elgyem: We need to do something. They are giving grandpa a wedgie, and it is atomic! (Elgyem goes up to Drew's ear and says). Pokémon wet Willy. (Elgyem licks his finger and puts it in his ear making him cringe in disgust and let go of Mohn, while Iris does what Elgyem did to Drew to Trip. This causes him to let go of Mohn, freeing him).

Mohn: Thanks, guys. Now let us get out of here.

Zoroark: Thank goodness you are okay Mohn. You are okay right? (Mohn nods. And then they see the remains of Mohn's broken device on the ground).

Mohn: Oh, it is kaput.

Axew: Now what?

Pikachu: What are we going to do?

Iris: How are we gonna find the exit? (Elgyem ponders this saying).

Elgyem: Hmm. Mirage Master would try to hide it in the last place we would think to look.


(A Short time later, they arrived at the place Ash suspected. With Ash now himself again).

Mohn: Your gym locker? Of course. (Ash works his locker dial. He puts in the combination before trying to open to no avail. But then approaching them are Mirage Master, Celesteela, Paul 151).

Mirage Master: Trying to leave school early? (Then Coming from the door behind them are Trip and Drew). Now you are really in trouble. (Trip grabs Mohn, and Zoroark, while Drew grabs Iris, Axew, and Pikachu. Ash tries to activate his Pokétrix only to find himself encased in a Rock growing around from Paul 151's Aggron arm. Ash keeps trying to activate the Pokétrix to no avail). You do not get it, do you? You may have had the advantage in the real world, but this is not the real world. (What Mirage Master said gives Ash an idea and decides to use the words of the Mirage Master against him).

Ash: You are right. This is not the real world. It is my world in my mind, and I say I am Ash Knight. (Ash goes Knight).

Ash Knight: But I am going to take it up a notch here. (Ash Knight Grins and Pulls Out a Disc. The Outer Edges of the Ring Are Red. On the Disc Are Pictures of a Gold Coin with Kanji Symbols on it with a Silver Background. They Go All Around the Disc. In the Center of the Disc is a Hole with a Red Outline. Ash Knight Holds the Disc Out to Mirage Master). And My Shogun Aura Power Disc Will Help with That. (Ash Knight Materializes a Sword Out of His Aura Energy. Ash Knight Places the Disc on the Handle Side of the Sword and it Clicks Indicating it is Set in Place and Shouts). SHOGUN MODE! POWER OF THE ANCESTORS! (Ash Knight Spins the Disc on the Sword. The Shogun Disc Transforms Ash Knight and Gives a New Appearance. Ash is Now in a Blue Shogun Like Outfit. With 4 Arms and Plating Jutting Off his Shoulders with Gold Lining. There Are 2 Silver Plates on Them. Under His Chin, are 4 Gold Squares Separated by Black Outlining. The Black Line Goes Downward. Underneath it is a Black Belt, in the Front is a Belt Buckle That when Opens Reveals a Shogun's Face. Under the Belt are Blue Plating Tiles. Wearing Blue Boots with Metal Plating at the Top of the Boots. His Shoes are Blue and Are Pointy. On His 4 Arms Sleeves There Are Metal Blades on the White Gloves of His Suit. On His Helmet is the Kanji Symbol for His Name "" in Black with a White Outline. In the Space Under his Kanji Symbol Mark is a White Space for his Mouth. The Same Symbol Appears in Gold Plating That Rests Above His Head. "". Ash is Now "Ash the Shogun Knight").

Axew: Impressive.

Pikachu: So Cool.

Zoroark: This may be Ash's dream, but he undoubtably knew when to dream big like this. (Mirage Master freaks out a bit but does not show it before saying).

Mirage Master: You will not be able to stop us all.

Ash: You are not the only one with backup. (Ash turns to Mohn and Zoroark and sends them both Aura Power too. Giving them a Samurai Armor suit like his. Once complete, Mohn and Zoroark manage to free themselves from Drew's Grip).

Mohn: Ultra Grandpa and Alpha Wolf. We like it.

Zoroark: Sure do. (They both Give Thumbs Up. Ash then turns to Iris, Axew, and Pikachu. Transforming them as well. Axew gets a Samurai like version of Mega Dragon Outfit, and Pikachu gets his Video Game Outfit. While Iris Gets her Dragon Girl outfit, only her head is that of a Raticate. And she does not find it funny, not even a little bit).

Iris: So not funny, Ash.

Ash: Quite complaining and bite somebody. (Iris glares at him but goes and uses her bite attack on Trip forcing him to let them go).

Axew: But at least I have my "Mega Dragon" Outfit.

Pikachu: And my Smash Bros Uniform. (They all begin fighting with Ash the Shogun Knight going after Paul 151, punching him repeatedly. Before giving him a "Shogun Aura Blade Slash" attack sending him flying down the hallway of lockers. While Trip and Drew are now going after Mohn and Zoroark. They dodge their attacks and Mohn Punches them, before Zoroark gets them with Night Daze).

Mohn: All right. (Then he grabs both boys and flies up through the school roof before throwing them up towards the sun before they begin falling back down, with him catching them by their underpants. Then Ash the Shogun Knight flies past him, carrying Mirage Master as they fly higher and higher into the sky, and then into Space. Flying closer to the Sun).

Ash: My head, my rules. (Ash the Shogun Knight holds Mirage Master over his head). Consider yourself expelled. (He then throws the Mirage Master into the sun).

Mirage Master: No!


(In the real world, the Mirage Master awakens from his Dream Machine and says to his scientists).

Mirage Master: Quickly, get that thing off before he wakes up.


(Back in the dream world, Ash the Shogun Knight turns and rockets back to Earth towards his exit, his gym Locker).


(The Pokétrix continues beeping as the scientists are close to removing it).


(Ash the Shogun Knight, flies into his gym Locker escaping the dream world).


(Back in the real world, Ash finally wakes up from the Dream Machine. As Mirage Master is holding one of the Scientists and shaking him saying).

Mirage Master: This time I will not fail. (Ash, now fully conscious kicks the scientists surrounding him away. Then Activates the Pokétrix).

Ash: Dream on. (Ash goes hero becoming Sceptile before speeding away).


(Back in the Northern Star, Mohn, Iris, Axew, Pikachu, and Zoroark all wake up from their Dream Machines too).

Mohn: Ash!


(Back in the Laboratory, Sceptile makes quick work of the scientists knocking them out, dodging their blasts. Taking their Blasters then Iron Tail-ing them into submission. Then Sceptile comes face to face with Mirage Master who draws a laser sword. Sceptile goes and speeds away before coming and using Leaf Blade to destroy his Laser sword. Before using Leaf Blade again to deliver multiple blows to him. Even putting a "Kick Me" Sign on his back. Then Sceptile delivers another Leaf Blade that knocks Mirage Master onto the table where they kept Ash asleep).

Sceptile: Time to go nighty night, Mirage Master. (But he will not accept defeat so easily. Ash goes to the control panel to activate the machine, but then something happens. On a small display screen, the word, "Malfunction" flashes on it. And then the machine fails in activating, and Mirage Master stands over Ash).

Mirage Master: No! Ha! It did not work. (Then the Pokétrix begins beeping before it times out to Ash's horror).

Ash: No! Not now. (The Mirage Master laughs at this as he goes after Ash).


(Later, Ash is back in the Dream Machine, and Mirage Master is Removing the Pokétrix himself).

Mirage Master: At last, (He successfully removes the Pokétrix from Ash's wrist, holding it up in the air), the Pokétrix is mine. (He then puts the Pokétrix on his wrist, his dreams have come true...).


(... But only when he himself is in dreamland and Sceptile is using the Dream Machine himself. The doors open and Mohn, Iris, Axew, Pikachu, and Zoroark arrive in the Laboratory).

Iris: Give the bad guy a taste of his own medicine... nice.

Mohn: That should keep Mirage Master happy until the police arrive.

Sceptile: I figure even bad guys deserve to have a nice dream occasionally.

Axew: But now, I want a nice and real dream.

Pikachu: Me too.

Zoroark: Only if they are real dreams and not machine generated ones. (With that the Ketchum's leave the lab. Leaving Mirage Master alone to his dreams).


(A Short time later, a member of Team Plasma arrives to see Mirage Master condition and is horrified at it).

Voice: No! (But then another Member of Team Plasma arrives only this is much more threatening look one). Mirage Master has failed me one time too many. From now on, I will personally deal with Ketchum's.

Next time on... Ash 150
