In Ash's worlds, a realm beyond time and space, an entity is watching the world.
"Where is Giratina," asks the entity
"We don't know, we can't feel Giratina in this universe" says the another entity
"Dialga and Palkia, you find Giratina at any cost. If Giratina don't return here on time then world will collapse due to unstable distortion world " says the entity
"Yes father" says Dialga and Palkia
"Can't you create another Giratina" asks Dialga
"I can but what will happen when it will return" asks the entity
"You are right, but we have multiple guardians of soul dew right" asks Palkia
"Ok, I will create a new Giratina but that will be for temporary basis. We should still look out for Giratina" says the entity
"I wish Giratina return here safe and sound " says the entity
"And chosen one is also disappeared, " says Lugia as she landed in front of them
"What, but how" asks entity
"Lord Arceus, it looks like something is related to Giratina and the chosen one" says Lugia
"This happened because of us, team galactic controlled us. They failed to create a universe but it results into a space time rift that expanded and pulled Ash inside it. But we don't know where Ash disappeared. " says Dialga
"What if the rift opened in some other universe" asks Dialga
"This can be a possibility but I don't know if I can trace them that far. " says Arceus
"You are god pokemon right, " asks Palkia
"I will try, but it will take time. I will be back, take care of the world" says as Arceus as he disappeared
"Place Pikachu's statue here " says Giratina as Ash nodded. His pokemon surrounded Ash and they are awaiting for Pikachu's revival.
Once Ash placed Pikachu, Giratina glowed dark and emits the ghostly aura that surrounded Pikachu. Soon cracks started to form on Pikachu's statue and then it happend. The tail of pikachu starts to become normal followed by whole body. Once Pikachu got normal, he opened his eyes and saw Ash he smiled at him.
"Pikachu, I am glad you are okay. Thanks to Giratina you are back " says Ash as Pikachu turned his head and saw Giratina with shocked expression
"You are right, Giratina is our team member now" says Ash as Giratina screamed in joy
"Are you a girl or a boy " asks Pikachu
"I am a female and because scientists never caught me so they categorized me in genderless. " says Giratina
"I though legendaries are genderless" says Ash
"It's not like that, no one saw legendaries and thus they didn't research on us and as a resukt our gender is unknown" says Giratina
"I am glad that you are back. " says Ash as he gave Pikachu a deep hug.
"Why don't you play with your friends" says Ash as Pikachu nodded
"Congratulation, you got your friend back" says Chi-chi and Bulma
"By the way, are you oy the two people who stay here or " says Ash
"No, we have our family and friends. Actually they went to train themselve for upcoming threat" says Bulma
"Upcoming threat ?" asks Ash in confusion
"Bulma, no need to tell him. " says Chi-chi
"No worries, if this threat is life threatening. Then I will help you, along with my pokemon, I will help you out" says Ash
"But" says Chi-chi
"Are you sure, because we need all possible help to save the earth" says Bulma
"Yes, I will help and I think that with my pokemon, I will save you, at least I can assist you" says Ash
"Guys, we decided. We will train with them to get stronger and when right time comes we will assist them in their battle" says Ash as his pokemon nodded
"Are you sure. Because it can kill you. " says Bulma
"We will, afterall we need to get stronger" says Ash
Meanwhile Goku and Gohan arrives at his home.
"So our new guest woke up" asks Gohan
"Yeah, he recovered from the injuries and his friend is also alive. " says Bulma
"Nice to meet you. My name is Ash and these are my pokemon" says Ash
"Nice to meet you. " says Gohan as he extends his arm to which Ash replied by hand shake
"Me too" says Ash
"So these are your pokemon, " says Gohan as he walked towards Ash's pokemon.
"Yeah, they are kinda shy towards new faces but they will warm up to you" says Ash
"By the way can you teach me how to fly. " asks Ash
"You want to learn our art of ki manipulation and combat" asks Goku
"Yes, me and my pokemon wants to help you in your quest to save earth from androids. Mrs. Bulma told me about the upcoming threat and me and my pokemon want to help you" says Ash as he pleaded Goku
"I don't know, I mean you are not aware of the consequences of the battle. You could die" says Gohan
"I know, but that doesn't mean I can't help you" says Ash
"Ash, you have a pure heart. Don't worry, you will train with us, but before that we need to see what you can do" says Goku
"Thanks " says Ash
"We have three years before android arrives and we can't slack off. " says Gohan
Post they all have their lunch, Ash recalled all of his pokemon in the pokeball and went with Goku at training spot.
As Ash, Goku and Gohan arrived at the training spot, they saw Piccolo is doing the air combat
"What he is doing" asks Ash
"He is Piccolo, my mentor and he will be your mentor too but before that you have to show your skills" says Goku
"Hey Piccolo, " says Goku
"You brought that kid here , are you out of your mind" asks Piccolo
"He insisted to get train. He wish to help us out" says Goku
"What makes him a good contender for this battle. We are going to face androids not some clowns" says Piccolo
"That's where initial test come into picture. We will see what his pokemon can do" says Goku
"Pokemon " asks Piccolo
"The pets he have, he call them pokemon" says Gohan
"Send your pet one by one and we will see what you can do" says Piccolo as he took battle stance.
"I will start with Pikachu" says Ash as Pikachu jumped on the battlefield as he released thunder in the air.
"No way, it can generate electricity " says Gohan in shock
"Let's start with " says PPiccoloas he made his clones
"You are going with double team. Pikachu use counter shield" says Ash as Pikachu started to spin on his back while releasing thunderbolt that hit Piccolo's copy but not made him flinched.
"Hmm, let's see how he will face this" says Piccolo as he fired scatter shot
"Pikachu quickly use quick attack to evade it" says Ash as with lightning speed Pikachu ecaded scatter shot.
"I am impressed. Though they are not that strong, they possess some good warrior skills" says Goku
"Send your next pokemon" says Piccolo as Ash recalled Pikachu and sends his Heracross out
"I will battle him" says Goku as Piccolo nodded as he took his position opposite to Heracross
"Heracross use pin missile " says Ash as Heracross's horns glowed white before he released multiple white needles.
"What " says Goku as he starts to panic
"Dad focus, you can't let your fear overpower you" says Gohan as multiple pins hit Goku.
"Heracross use shadow claw" says Ash as Heracross's arms sirrounded in shadow and thrust it on the ground after which dark claws came from under Goku's feet and striked him causing a good damage.
"Geez, what kind of tricks are that" asks Goku
"These are kind of moves that each pokemon can learn" says Ash
One by one Ash showcased his pokemon moves and skills and full day passed and it's time for final decision.
"Ash, your pokemon are amazing, tehy can execute some good attack but it's not sufficient. You have to make them physically fit and mentally strong, you can't take down the threats like androids because they are so powerful that they can kill your pokemon.
We decided to take you as our apprentice and we will train you. The training you will do is not an easy one, " says Goku
"Me and my pokemon are ready for this." says Ash as his pokemon nodded
"You and Gohan will be training partner and once you able to defeat Gohan, you will face us
"And one more thing, you won't be training in this outfit. We will give you new outfit " says Goku as he disappeared
"Where did he go" asks Ash
"Don't worry, he will return soon. You see he ises a technique called instant transmission and user can teleport anywhere " says Gohan
Ten minutes later Goku arrived with another set of same clothes that he carry.
"You see, I used to carry this when I was younger and now you can use this" says Goku
"From tomorrow morning you will be put into training regiment. We will train harder in a way you haven't imagined." says Piccolo
"Damn, these weights are too heavy" says Ash as he can't move his body one inch after putting the weights
"pika pi" says Pikachu
"You can do that Ash," says Gohan as he motivated Ash
His pokemon feels the same way, they didn't believed what they put themselve in.
"This is not a pokemon abuse, isn't it" asks Ash as his pokemon agreed but a low level energy beam hit near Ash's leg causing him to run fast
"Run faster kiddo, you have to sustain the pain. No pain no gain" says Piccolo as he fires death beams constantly causing him and his pokemon to work the end of the day, Ash managed to walk ten meters easily with the weights
"You did great, " says Piccolo
"Are you sure, that was only ten meters" says Ash
"It doesn't mean if you walked ten meters or ten miles, what matters is your will power. You gathered your courage to forget about pain and showed great determination to get stronger and this is what makes you better warrior." says Piccolo
"And same goes for your pokemon friends" says Piccolo as he gently pet the Pikachu
"Let's meditate and focus our energy" says Piccolo. With that Ash and his pokemon starts meditating
One month passed and Ash did better than expected. He is able to walk in weights easily but not like others. Ash's pokemon are also able to mold themselve in the new training regiment of Piccolo. Right now Ash is in a capsule home provided by Ash is not able to sleep because he is constantly thinking about his world.
"Don't let your thoughts disturb your sleep. It will be difficult for your family to digest the news of your disappearance but when you go back as the strongest warrior, you will feel better" says Piccolo
"Thanks, I don't know how I will repay you" says Ash
"No need for that. We are happy to train you as we need to get ready for the problem we are going to face after three years" says Piccolo
"Ash you have to do it " says Goku as he is kept pushing Ash harder
"Hundred and one, hundred and two ...hundred and fifty" says Ash as he collapsed on the ground
"You did great, even after carrying the weights, you completed your target" says Gohan
"Now we will train you on how to manipulate your ki" says Gohan
"Close your eyes and look into your ki. " says Gohan
"Everyone, you do the same " says Ash to his pokemon as they follow the lead.
"Ash, I can sense your feelings are distracting you, your mind is full of worries, you have to clear it first" says Gohan
"I know, but I can't stop my thoughts from distracting me" says Ash
"You have to work on that, this is the trait that will make you stronger " says Gohan
"I will try" says Ash
Just like this Ash trained for two weeks and right now he can control over his thoughts.
"Ash you are doing good, and as another step, we will make you blind by strapping this on your eyes and you have to use your senses to dodge it" says Gohan
"But you are going to attack me" says Ash
"Nope, your pokemon will. This will make them stronger" says Gohan
Once Ash is blinded temporary, Gohan asks his pokemon who is Ceruledge to strike Ash silently. Ceruledge nodded and then two swords surrounded in flames.
"That's cool " says Gohan as he saw how Ceruledge charged at Ash and landed a powerful hit.
"That hurts" says Ash as he scream in pain
"Remember, the more you train, the more you get stronger. In our team Krillin is strongest human" says Gohan
"I know, thanks for reminding me" says Ash as he took the attacks continuously and as a result, his body surrounded in blue aura.
"That's a surprise, your ki is different" asks Gohan as he tried to read the ki but he is shocked
"Ash, you have god ki in you" says Gohan
"No way, you are kidding right" says Ash as he got hit by Ceruledge once again.
"I am sure, your ki is different, you sure have some different ki" says Gohan
It's full day passed since Ash started training but he is not making any progress.
"Why don't you take rest, after that we will resume our training" says Gohan
"Sure" says Ash as he walked to his pokemon who are resting.
"So, how was your day everyone. Did you enjoyed" asks Ash as his pokemon nodded
"Zer" says Zeraora as he pointed to Ash's other pokemon
"Do you want to train" asks Ash as he nodded
"Don't stress your body, we will train but we don't want to die either." says Ash
"Ash, can I ask you something " asks Gohan
"Yeah, go ahead" says Ash
"I sensed your ki, it felt different" says Gohan
"You see, when I was travelling in Hoenn, a region in my world. I took part in the tournament where I met a Lucario who was trapped in the staff for many years until he came out due to my aura." says Ash
"Aura" asks Gohan
"The think you call ki is aura. It matches with the aura of Sir Aron who was an aura guardian. He sacrificed himself to save his kingdom. The same Lucario told me that I can use aura and if harnessed properly," says Ash
"You can be a z warrior" says Gohan"
"Once you learn how to manipulate aura or ki, you can execute attack like us, you can do combat like us" says Gohan
"What aura users can do" asks Gohan
"I don't know but I read somewhere that once used unlock his aura, he or she can prepare weapons, use it for combat and many more thing" says Ash
"Then you are at right place" says Gohan
"Focus Ash, you have to run as fast as possible." says Piccolo as he asks Ash to run with only one cloth in coldest weather."I can't keep up" says Ash as he sneeze loudly"Pika pi" says Pikachu as he is also forced to run along with him."Everyone move your feet quickly" says Piccolo to Ash's pokemon"I am doing" says Ash as he tried to move quickly
One year passed since Ash started his training under Z-warriors. His pokemon trained against each other and as a result they become more agile and strong.
"Lucario and Infernape use close combat" says Ash as both pokemon charged at each other and starts exchanging series of kicks and punches.
"Ceruledge and Zeraora use close combat. Corvisquire and Staraptor use brave bird" says Ash as his pokemon engaged in combat.
"Ash ,fight me" says Gohan as he charged at Ash and with in seconds Gohan landed critical punch that sends Ash crashed into the mountain.
"Ouch, that hurts " says Ash as he stood back
"This won't make you stronger, you need to work hard " says Gohan as Ash nodded as he gets back to the business. Slowly and slowly Ash starts to train, day and night he and his pokemon put their efforts.
Two months later Ash and Gohan are still training.
"Let's see how good you are at flying and using instant transmission" says Gohan as Ash surrounded in silver aura before he fly in the air.
"Now, I will send energy blast and you will dodge" says Gohan as he fires energy blast at fast speed which hits Ash.
"Focus Ash" says Gohan as he fired another attack. This time Ash focused and tilted his body to miss the attack. Gohan increased assault on Ash as it is getting difficult for Ash to dodge.
Two months left before arrivals of the Androids.
"Gengar use shadow ball, rapid fire. Lucario use close combat. Gardevoir use shadow ball, Bisharp use night slash" says Ash as he is checking results of the training. Ash can see the results of his training, though they are not unleashed their full limits but they are capable of defending against Androids.
"Ash, let's see if you can take on the attacks" says Gohan as he fired the kamehameha which Ash blocked with the aura shield. Gohan is pushing hard and then he disappeared before arriving behind Ash. Ash's senses kicked in and he turned back before sending aura sphere that he leared two months back with the help of Lucario. Aura sphere and Kamehameha collided causing explosion that sends both of them back.
"You did great, you are faster than before and I think we need to work on strategy to defeat them." says Ash
"We can plan a new strategy" says Ash
At Kami's lookout, everyone assembled to see what Ash is planning
"Why you called us" asks Vegeta in annoyance
"I decided to form a plan , in this way we can defeat them" says Ash
"This is not a children game kid, you need pure power" says Vegeta
"Sometimes we need a plan Vegeta, " says Piccolo
"He is right. Tell us what your plan is" asks Gohan
"We must understand what are Abdroids. " says Ash
"Androids are not humans, they are cyborg or machines.I fought one when I was small " says Goku
"So in that case they can't be put to sleep, and if they are machines we can short circuit them" says Ash
"We can do that but how, for that we need to be in close range" says Yamacha
"That's where Giratina will come in handy. Giratina is ruler of distortion world in my universe and she has great control over gravity. What if you all act as a beacon for Androids, bring them to an open area and then Giratina can confined them into closed space which they can't tear apart and then we will destroy them." says Ash
"That sounds like a good plan" says Goku
"We all can use our attacks to destroy them" says Krillin
"But one thing we must remember, what if Androids have data on all battle styles, techniques and skills we have" says Goku
"That's where me and my pokemon will come in. They can't reproduce the attacks we have, they can't play with the element manipulation like my pokemon can do. " says Ash
"We have to play with their brains. After all they are robots right, " says Ash as everyone nodded
"What you are planning then" asks Gohan
"This is like a pokemon battle, we have to make use of our environment, battle terrain and nature" says Ash as they got confused
"Don't consider them weak, they are powerful beyond your thinking. We had a guest from future and androids killed Goku in that timeline." says Vegeta
"Did he told us how these androids look like" asks Ash
"No, all he said that two androids will invade the city" says Piccolo
"Dad" says Gohan
"What happened Gohan" says Goku with concern
"We could have used dragon balls to stop incoming threat" says Gohan
"Sorry to interrupt but what's dragon ball" asks Ash
"These are seven magical orbs that can summon Shenron who will grant us the wish" says Goku
"Damn ! Why didn't thought about that.We could have used dragon ball to make a wish for peace on earth or universe" says Goku
"We don't have time now, it will take us
good amount of time to search for them." says Vegeta as everyone nodded
"Now which pokemon you are going to use" asks Gohan
"Basically I am selecting few pokemon for this. Gengar, Gardevoir, Lucario, Giratina, Ceruledge,
Zeraora, Hitmonchan, Hitmonlee,Sceptile" says Ash
"This won't be enough, what if Androids can absorb our energy attacks" asks Gohan
"You are right, we can't give them unnecessary advantage. Wait a minute, if they need our energy to work, in that case we can't confined them in energy barrier, they will steal it anyway" says Ash
"Leave that to me,I can sacrifice some of my energy to destroy them" says Giratina
"We are clear on this, find androids separate them and destroy them." says Goku
"Right and I will be the first one to destroy them" says Vegeta
Finally the day arrived when Androids will invade the earth. Ash and others are flying towards the island.
"Are you ready Ash " asks Gohan
"Yeah, I can't wait to see result of my training" says Ash
"Don't worry kid, even if you failed to defeat them we are here for you" says Goku
As they reached towards island they saw Krillin, Yamcha and Tien along with Bulma standing on mountain looking over the city
"Hey everyone" says Goku as he landed followed by Gohan,Ash and Piccolo
"Are you ready " asks Tien
"Yes, " says Ash
"Bulma why you are here" says Gohan
"I am here to watch you all battling those Androids" says Bulma
"Wait who is this" asks Goku as he walked towards the kid in Bulma's arms
"His name is Trunks. He is me and Vegeta's child" says Bulma
"Congratulations Bulma, and I am sure that Trunks will become a good fighter" says Ash
"But you shouldn't be here Bulma. It may cause trouble to you and others as Androids may target you" says Ash
"He is right" says Gohan
Meanwhile Yajirobe arrives and handed them a pouch of senszu beans.
"Thanks " says Goku and others
"How we are going to find them" asks Goku
"Leave that to me " says Ash as he tossed few pokeball from which came out Gengar, Pidgeot,Swellow,Staraptor, Noctowl,
Corvisquire and Fletchinder.
"Guys, Androids are here, and we need to locate them. Can you search for them, and use aura vision to see their aura. If you don't find traces of aura, do let me know via aura signal. And stay alert as they can be dangerous. " says Ash as they nodded and with flap of their wings they flew away. Gengar floats towards the city while staying invisible
