"So Pikachu, it looks like for this Battle Frontier, if we want to take on the Frontier Brains, I need to have an unbroken winning streak of 5 battles in their arena." Ash said, looking at a pamphlet. "So which one should we go for first?"

"Pi!" Pikachu said, pointing his paw at the Ferris Wheel.

"Alright, I'll put in a request to take on a challenger then, let's get the others from Professor Oak for this!" Ash said excitedly.

A bit later

"Alright, here we are Pikachu." Ash said, looking at the giant Ferris wheel. "Looks like there are two lines, one for the ride, and one for the trainers. "I guess we're over there."

"Grawr!" Charizard growled, coming out of his Pokeball.

"Charizard? What's up, you usually aren't like this." Ash said, noticing Charizard look off in the distance.

"Hey, I remember you. Though I could've sworn you were a boy, guess puberty did you a favor." A guys voice said.

"Do I know you?" Ash asked, looking at the greenish-blue haired boy in question. He seemed familiar but he couldn't quite put a finger on it.

"You took my Charmander." The boy said angrily.

"DAMIAN?!" Ash exclaimed in shock.

"Yeah, eight years ago you took my Charmander, and I'd like it back." Damian said.

"Not happening, you left Charmander to die!" Ash argued. "And he's my Pokemon now!"

"Well, we'll just have to see who the stronger trainer is then, hope you trained well, because this time we'll be battling." Damian said holding up a challenge ticket.

"Charizard, you've got this." Ash said confidently.

"Grawr!" Charizard growled.

On the Ferris wheel stadium

"Alright trainers, stocked to have you here on the Battle Wheel, the rules for your match are pretty straight forward. You can use any part of the Ferris wheel for the battle, but you have to keep at least one Pokemon on the center stadium at all times. This is all about double battles, if you want to win you need to knock out three of the four of your opponents Pokemon." A recording of Scott said.

"Four on four with a winning of three, leave it to Scott to create a strange battle." Ash said. "No matter, I'll keep to the sky's and to the ground! Charizard, Pikachu I choose you!"

"Predictable, Rhydon, Starmie come out." Damian said.

"Pikachu use Thunderbolt! Charizard you use Flamethrower!"

"Rhydon use Rock Blast, and Starmie you use Water Pulse." Damian said.

Pikachu's Thunderbolt redirected, striking Rhydon's horn as Charizard's flames were scattered by the two opposing attacks.

"Okay, Lightning Rod, we'll need to take care of that first. Pikachu come back, let's go Dracovish!" Ash said. "Charizard get Starmie out of here with a Seismic Toss! Dracovish use Fishious Rend on Rhydon!"

Dracovish rushed out, firing a jet of water at Rhydon as Charizard grabbed a hold of Starmie, flying up into the air with it.

"Starmie use Thunderbolt. And Rhydon you use Horn Drill."

Rhydon charged forward, it's horn spinning as it attacked Dracovish who bit down as the horn simply spun around in his mouth, while Charizard endured the hit, as he tossed Starmie back down.

"Now Dracovish use another Fishious Rend! Charizard use Dragon Rush!"

Dracovish launched backwards from the force of his own attack, soaking Rhydon completely as Charizard launched Starmie back into their partner.

"Oh too bad, looks like you just lost a Pokemon. But not to worry, you can still turn this around!" The Scott recording said.

"Oh I will, and I plan on getting my Charmander back." Damian said. "Dodrio use Drill Peck! Starmie use Water Pulse!"

"Hey idiot! My Charmander is now the Charizard mopping the floor with you!" Ash called out. "Charizard use Flamethrower! Dracovish use Super Fang!"

Dracovish chomped down on Dodrio as Charizard flew around, engulfing the armored top of the carriage in flames.

"Charizard cool it, Dracovish is in there!" Ash reminded.

Charizard let out a stream of flames in anger reminding Ash of many different situations before.

"Charizard, I don't care if you're angry, but you still need to work with me, we can't take out our own, you remember what happened with Kommo-o and to Guzzlord." Ash said, calming his fire type.

Charizard nodded as Dracovish popped back out of the flames, looking okay, all things considered.

"Dodrio use Tri Attack! Starmie use Ice Beam!"

Both attacks struck Dracovish from behind, causing him to drop showing most of the damage had been on his backside in the first place.

"It's alright Charizard, this fight is personal I get it." Ash said, recalling Dracovish. "Just don't knock out this next one, alright."

Charizard nodded in understanding.

"Alright, come back out Pikachu!" Ash said excitedly.

"Dodrio use Drill Peck! Starmie use Flash Cannon!"

"Pikachu use Thunderbolt! Charizard use Flamethrower!" Ash exclaimed.

The two blasts of electricity and fire shot forward, flames engulfing Dodrio while the bolt of electricity pierced through the Flash Cannon, knocking out both of Damian's Pokemon at once.

"Oh too bad, looks like you're out of three Pokemon, which makes you the looser. Don't worry there's always next time, but remember you still need five consecutive wins here to challenge this station's frontier brain, so get back out there and give it your all!" The Scorr recording declared.

Author's notes

Like I said, we'll be seeing a lot of characters that the originally story never went over, and with how much Charizard has been focused on my stories lately, bringing his OG trainer back just to see him get creamed present day by the same Pokemon he once called weak. Each frontier brain will have a theme for the trainers before them, so for this one it will be characters introduced in the original series, if Ash had his original outfit, that's what I'm counting for these characters. Also as for why this chapter came out so quickly after the previous chapters is because this chapter has been sitting in waiting since the Three Ashs crossover when I wasn't sure when I wasn't sure where I was going to update his story.
