Chapter 15: The Union and Reunion

Ash's POV (Also Time Skip)

We were in Anistar City now. Took about 20 minutes to get there. Not bad. By car that would have taken more than 2 and a half hours from Snowbelle City. We landed on a tarmac not that far from the Pokémon Center. We unbuckled our seatbelts and we all thanked the pilot then headed outside. In the near distance looking west we could see the Pokémon Gym and further than that in a little hill is the sundial that Team Flare is supposedly after. After getting off I see Diantha and the others getting off of their helicopters. We then go to them. They then gasp as they saw Mewtwo next to my side.

"Mewtwo. What are you doing here? I thought that you didn't want to show up until the meeting?" Olympia asked it a little taken back.

"After Ash told me about the precarious situation we are in right now I have decided that I should be at the meeting. I will wait a bit before I head inside though. I do have some business to attend to." It said affirmatively. She nodded.

"Mewtwo it is an honor." Diantha said slightly bewildered, but smiling.

"Likewise Diantha." It said with a smile too. We all are then grouped together and then start walking to the gym.

"So Olympia. Who else will be showing up?" Clemont asked while we were walking down the steps to the city.

"The rest of the gym leaders of Kalos and all of the gym leaders from other regions along with champions are coming too." She said. We all were taken aback especially me. Those were the special guests she was mentioning I'm betting.

"Wait are you serious?" Serena asks.

"Definitely. I have a connection with all of the gym leaders and champions of the other regions. The leaders from Kalos are already in the gym." She said. I'm glad that we are getting so much help in this.

"This is good. We have lots more numbers. This war will be much easier to fight." I said. We all murmured in agreement. We were almost to the gym. Lots of emotions were going through me. I know I'm going to be seeing lots of familiar faces. And maybe some I haven't heard before. But for now I will get to see all of the previous gym leaders I've battled. I'm pretty excited for that. We all walk to the doors and Olympia hums a tune and then the doors open. Pretty handy and advanced security system if you ask me. But I feel like someone else could like learn it or record her doing it, then use that to open the gym.

"Say Olympia. Couldn't someone just whistle the tune or record you doing it and then use that to enter the gym?" I asked as we walked inside.

"Good question Ash. Glad you asked. It is programmed to only respond to my voice, and my voice only. And in an event if someone were to use a recording of my voice it can detect the different frequencies and it only responds to one frequency which is my voice." She replies. We were all impressed. Especially Clemont.

"Wow that's really impressive. I could learn from you sometime." Clemont said jokingly. We all laughed. But I knew he also sort of meant it. We stepped into the gym and we all went to the room of the battlefield. But it looked completely different from when I was here when I battled Olympia. The battlefield was completely gone. There were chairs set up everywhere around a massive table that seemed bigger than the battlefield itself.

"Woahhhhh." Said Bonnie in amazement.

"Wow Olympia. What happened here?" Serena asked slightly in shock.

"My disciples and I rearranged the whole battlefield for the meeting. There's more than enough seats to accommodate for everyone coming to the meeting." She said.

"How many people will be here?" my mom asked.

"Well over 50 people. Pretty much every gym leader and every champion will be here from every region." Olympia said.

"So what about all the people that want to get their gym battles done? Don't they need to like find a replacement?" Clemont asked.

"Actually no. Some just stated that their gyms will be closed for a period of time. Others had backups to battle the challengers. They don't want to say the reason why of course because we don't want people going into mass panic." Olympia said. That does make sense. We need to keep information of this as quiet as possible. We all walked down the stairs to one side of the massive table to see all the Kalos gym leaders there. They all saw us and their eyes lit up. Especially when they saw Diantha and I.

"Ahhh everyone. Glad you are here. Good to see you all again." Ramos states. We all greet everyone back. Grant comes to me.

"Great to see you again Ash. I hear you're a vital role in this war." He said happily. I nodded while smiling a bit.

"I am yes. Probably due to my Greninja and I having our special form and my aura manifesting as well." I said.

"That's awesome. I would love to battle with you and your Greninja sometime and see the power myself." He said with excitement in his voice.

"Yeah of course! I bet you have gotten so much stronger." I said to him. He nodded.

"Oh yeah. I've been training my Pokémon a lot for this and my Onix evolved into Steelix not that long ago and I have Mega Evolution." He said. My eyes lit up to that.

"That's amazing. I bet he's a real powerhouse when he's Mega Evolved." I said.

"Yes of course. You will definitely see." He said. I honestly can't wait to see him in battle in this war. He said he then had to excuse himself to talk to Olympia.

"Ash!" I hear my name. I turn around. It was Viola.

"Viola! Nice to see you again! Haven't seen you since the Battle Chateau. How have you been?" I asked.

"I've been well. Been training a lot so a little tired. How are you?" She asked me.

"I'm slightly nervous about this war, but I know we can do it. Otherwise I'm well. Anything new with you?" I asked.

"Well my Surskit evolved to Masquerain a couple weeks back." She said excitedly.

"Awesome! I'm happy for you. I bet she's a real powerhouse." I said.

"Yeah! So I hear you and Greninja have this sort of Mega Evolution. How does that work?" She asked.

"I don't know actually. I think it's our bond and our mutual trust for each other that does it. Like our bond is so tight like we surpass the need of Mega Evolution stones." I said. She seemed very intrigued.

"I would love to battle you and see that in action." She said.

"I would love that. Grant said the same thing also." I said.

"Of course he did." She said and we both laughed. I then heard Olympia call for all of our attention. We all face her direction. She then started levitating so we could all see her.

"So as we all know. We have all of the other gym leaders and champions coming from other regions. But we also have a special guest," There was constant murmur as to who the special guest was among the gym leaders. I already knew and so did, Wulfric, Serena, Bonnie and Clemont, my mom and Diantha.

"That special guest is Mewtwo." She said. And it appeared next to her. Everyone who didn't know gasped.

"I'm glad to be working with you all," It said and it smiled which it does very rarely. Everyone collectively said the same back.

"Well if Olympia hasn't informed you yet, all of the evil organizations seem to have formed an alliance with Team Flare, making our situation even more precarious than before, but with the help off some of the strongest trainers in the world, we will have no doubt that we can beat them." It said. It looked at me when it said "strongest trainers in the world."

"So who are some of the other evil organizations from the other regions?" Wulfric asked.

"Well unfortunately I only know the one that made me and that team's name is Team Rocket. But I know each region has their own organization." It said.

"Hmmm I've encountered them before with Ash. They tried to steal the secret scroll from us at the Tower of Mastery that turned out to be blank." Korrina said the last part flatly and I chuckled a bit.

"Ahh I see. Well they are native to Kanto." It said.

"I know some." I spoke up. I felt all eyes on me after not even 2 seconds of saying that.

"Ahh I see. Care to enlighten us?" Olympia asked. I nodded slowly.

"Let's see. So yeah Team Rocket is native to Kanto and Johto, Team Aqua and Magma for Hoenn, Team Galactic for Sinnoh, Team Plasma for Unova, and then of course Team Flare for Kalos," I then get flashes of an unknown region, well unknown to me, seemed to be an archipelago, not the Orange Islands, a different region. It seemed more tropical than anything. Then I saw people who had bandanas covering their mouths and tank tops with X's on them and wearing shorts. They were also wearing white berets with black markings on them, almost like if it was the top of a skull. They had on these wrist bracelets and somehow they were able use them to have their Pokémon unleash powerful attacks. Then the name Team Skull popped up. I felt an arm on mine. I snapped out of my trance. I looked and saw Serena's arm on mine. She was looking at me with worry on her face.

"Are you alright sweetie?" She asked me. I was slightly dazed by what I saw.

"Did you have a vision Ash?" Olympia asked me.

"I did. There were these people. From a region I have yet to visit. Their name is Team Skull." I said. Olympia seemed very surprised. Serena went back to where Diantha was.

"They are from the Alola region if I'm not mistaken. It's an island region far from here. Thousands of miles away. A very long plane ride. Close to a day maybe in duration." She said.

"Soooo maybe we don't have to worry about them?" Diantha asks.

"We shouldn't. That's way too far away for them to have even gotten word about the Kalos Disaster." Mewtwo said.

"Just wondering Ash, if this Team Skull does not have anything to do with the war, how did you get a flash of them?" Clemont asked me.

"I don't know that's a good question. I think it could be because we were talking about these evil organizations and I guess my aura just flared up because Team Skull was relevant to the conversation." I said.

"Hmm. That does make sense." He said in return. We all then heard a loud ding. I pulled out Greninja's Pokéball and popped him out just in case. Pikachu hopped off my shoulder and got into battle mode.

"What was that ding?" He asked quietly.

"I have no idea. But stay alert." I said back quietly. He nodded.

"Oops sorry about that. We have visitors. Everyone else is here!" Olympia exclaimed with a sigh of relief. Greninja, Pikachu and I calmed down and we all looked at each other and started laughing. But finally. Everyone was here. The moment has come to meet everyone. Olympia left to go get the door for them.

"So you can understand your Pokémon?" Korrina came up to me with a happy yet surprised expression on her face.

"Yeah! And it's not just my Pokémon. It's all Pokémon." I said. She seemed slightly taken aback.

"So if I were to pull out like my Lucario you could understand it?" She asked still in shock, but sort of warily.

"I sure could!" I said enthusiastically.

"Ok let's see!" She said with a hint if excitement in her voice. She pulled out Lucario's Pokéball and popped him out.

"Ah Ash. Good to see you again." He said peacefully.

"You too Lucario. I bet you have gotten a lot stronger." I said joyfully.

"I have. Thanks to Korrina." He said while looking at her and with a proud smile on his face.

"That's good to hear. I know you will be a real powerhouse when you are Mega evolved." I said. He nodded with a determined grin on his face.

"I definitely am I know it. But I can say I can just like feel the immense aura energy radiating off you." He said which didn't surprise me at all I mean he is called the Aura Dog Pokémon for a reason.

"Yeah it just started manifesting not that long ago. maybe close to a week ago." I said.

"Have you learned to create barriers and attacks with aura?" He asked me. I put my hand behind me sheepishly.

"Uhhh no not yet." I said sweatdropping slightly. He just chuckled.

"Don't worry you'll get there, it'll just take time." He said. I nodded.

"Yeah eventually I would want to create barriers and attacks with aura soon enough." I said proudly. He just smiled. Korrina looked back and forward between me and Lucario confused and baffled.

"Uhhh what just happened?" She asked. We both chuckled slightly.

"I can understand him remember?" I said while smiling.

"Wow you really can speak to Pokémon. That's like, so awesome!" She said with an excited squeal. All three of us laughed.

"Everyone!" I then heard Olympia. We all turned to the stairs that lead to the doors of the gym and saw Olympia with many people all behind her. And I mean like A LOT of people. This must be everyone. I saw Alder, Steven Stone, Lance, and Cynthia. With many of the past gym leaders like Elena, Volkner, Roxie and wait a minute. I could make out CILAN, CRESS AND CHILI! AND BROCK and MISTY! They're here with us! Oh my goodness this is just crazy. Things just got a lot better.

"We're all here! Make yourself comfortable and I shall speak to you guys soon." Olympia said and she floated off to Mewtwo to talk about the war. I knew she would.

"Oh my Arceus." Misty said quietly, but of course I heard her just fine, as she saw me. I ran towards them.

"Misty!" I said very excitedly.

"Ash oh my Arceus I've missed you!" She said in tears.

"Me too Misty!" I said happily. We both hugged each other. Man it feels good to see her again. We separated after a couple seconds. I picked up a strong feeling of jealousy in someone and I know exactly who it was. But I continued with greeting my friends.

"Brock oh my man it's been too long man." I said. He nodded in agreement while smiling and we gave each other a hug.

"Yes it has indeed." He said back.

"How have you two been?" I asked.

"Everything has been alright back in Kanto. Everything is still the same as it is when you went on your journey there." Misty said.

"That's awesome. I miss home. Oh yeah my mom is here with us." Their eyes widened.

"Wow really? Where is she?" Brock asked. I pointed down the stairs where she was at the table. She was with everyone else.

"Awesome! We're gonna go say hi to her. Let's catch up later!" Misty said happily. I nodded smiling.

"Of course. Great to see you guys again." I said.

"Likewise Ash." Brock said smiling and then they headed towards my mom. I then headed to Cilan. I don't know where Cress or Chili went.

"Cilan!" I said loud through all the noise. He turned in my direction and his eyes lit up when he saw me.

"Wow what a pleasant surprise! Ash Ketchum! It's so great to see you again!" He said excitedly. I then saw purple hair behind him. I already know who that is.

"You're such a little kid Ash." The purple haired girl said teasingly while giving me a cheeky grin.

"Iris! Oh my goodness it's so great to see you two!" I said.

"Indeed Ash! I can't believe it's already been a year since we had our travels together!" Cilan exclaimed happily with slight nostalgia.

"I know!" I said. I gave both of them a hug.

"How have you both been?" I asked.

"I've been well! I got back to the Unova region from Hoenn a few months ago." He said.

"That's awesome! How did you enjoy it?" I asked curiously.

"It was enlightening. I went to a couple of connoisseur conventions there and met people that was nice." He said.

"That's awesome glad you enjoyed Hoenn." I said happily.

"Yes indeed." he said with a smile.

"Yeah. How about you Iris how have things been with you?" I asked.

"Well I became the gym leader of Opelucid City. Drayden stepped down and gave the title to me. Well, more like I had to beat him in a battle for it. Also I'm officially a Dragon Master now!" She said happily.

"That's awesome I'm glad!" I said happily. Greninja walked up to us.

"Hey Ash. Who are they?" Greninja asked as he looked at them.

"Oh hey Greninja. These are my good friends Iris and Cilan. My last journey before this was with them." I said. He nodded and smiled at them.

"Nice to meet you guys." He said happily. They looked at each other confused, with a nervous smile. Of course they didn't understand him because to them he just says his "Greninja language". I think Greninja is just used to me being able to understand him he thinks other people do too.

"Oh Greninja remember I can only understand you." I said and I chuckled. He realized that and began to chuckle embarrassed.

"Oh right my bad." He said putting a hand behind his head embarrassed.

"He said nice to meet you guys." I said while still smiling. They both then had realization hit there face.

"But like, how can you understand him?" Iris asked shocked. I was about to answer, but I heard Olympia's voice.

"Alright everyone I need you to gather around here at the table and find a spot. We need to discuss the disaster that's ahead." She said in a serious manner. Iris, Cilan, Greninja, and I all looked at each other with a determined look on our faces. We started walking over to the table in the battlefield room. Here we finally plan how we are going to stop the Kalos Disaster once and for all.
