It had been a week since the swap incident but now Lincoln is doing great
right now he's hanging out on the beach with his classmates and Wes who was now in a kid form having grown up a little bit
right now they were having a splash fight when ash went to go over to check some rocks
"be careful pops!" Wes yelled to ash
Wes had taken to calling ash "pops" and mallow "mom" much to the confusion of others and joy to them
while bloop allows ash and mallow to hold them without being hit with a dragon breath
after a little while they see an explosion come from where ash was at
"what was that?!" Kiawe yelled
"let's go check it out!" Lincoln said
once they got there they saw team rocket celebrating while rowlet was poisoned and pikachu was out cold
"hey back away from our boyfriend!" Lincoln and mallow yelled as Lincoln sent out Marshadow and mallow sent out bounsweet
"wait boyfriend?" James said
"you mean da twerp actually got some dates?" Meowth said
"uh yea?" Lincoln said
"I'm confused." Mallow said
"we've been after pikachu for 6 regions." Jessie said "and every single time there's at least one person that has a crush on him."
"he's denser than a bag of bricks." James said "he never picks up the signals."
"ok now I'm even more confused what exactly is your connection?" Lincoln asked
"they're bad guys but not bad guys you get what I mean?" Ash asked
"elaborate." Lincoln said
"basically they help me a couple times and I help them with non team rocket related matters." Ash explained "like dealing with James's arranged marriage."
"you poor soul." Lincoln said to James "it's not fun having someone trying to plan out your life."
"you know what it feels like?" James asked
"all too well." Lincoln said
"(yea Meowth has even travelled with us a couple times.)" pikachu said barely awake and forgetting that Lincoln can understand him "(the dates are easier then.)"
"what dates?" Lincoln asked confused as pikachu flinched
"shoot." Meowth said having realized he had been caught
"MEOWTH HAVE YOU BEEN DATING THE ENEMY?!?" Jessie yelled as ash looked at pikachu with an "are you serious right now?" Expression while Marshadow burst out laughing
"(like trainer like pokemon!)" Marshadow said in between laughs
"ok wow that's a lot of truth bombs." Mallow said
"yea can we move on now?" James asked "marinie use spike cannon!"
marinie began to fire spikes at bounsweet
"Thunder punch!" Lincoln yelled as Marshadow knocked marine out of the sky
the suddenly bewear came out of its pokeball an grabbed team rocket and ran off
"we're off with a new blast." Team rocket said as they were carried away
after getting healed
"so pikachu you said something interesting." Lincoln said
"(ah crapbaskets.)" pikachu said after remembering what he said
"sooo you wanna talk about it?" Lincoln asked
"(you wanna talk about how wes calls you dad mallow mom and ash "pops"?)" pikachu asked
"fair enough." Lincoln said
a couple days later
Lincoln and ash were sitting outside mallow's family restaurant watching mallow trained bounsweet to move with a bunch of pancakes on its head
"do you have any idea to what bounsweet is up to?" Rotom asked
"nope." Lincoln said
"beats me." Ash said "mallow!"
"not right now we're constraining!" Mallow said
"sorry." Lincoln said
"alright bounsweet full speed!" Mallow said
bounsweet began to speed up
"you did it in great time!" Mallow said as bounsweet finished moving
"we keep training every day till the race your time will get even quicker!" Mallow said
"did you say race?" Ash asked
"that's right I guess you two wouldn't know about it." Mallow said "it's a melemele tradition! The melemele pancake race!"
"pancake race?" Ash questioned
"I've never heard of it." Rotom said
"I know! Why don't you two join in?" Mallow questioned
"as much as that sounds fun I don't think any of my Pokémon could do it because half of them would eat the pancakes and the other half can't balance it." Lincoln said
"I'll give it a shot!" Ash said
"plus the day of the race is like a huge festival!" Mallow said
"alright I'm in!" Ash said
a couple of days later
Lincoln was watching his boyfriend and girlfriend about to start the race when he began to think about something
(I wonder how my sisters are doing?) Lincoln thought to himself (better question how will they take what has happened?)
meanwhile at the loud house
things were not going well for the loud sisters
first off the tried to see if Lincoln was bluffing but no one knew where he was even Clyde didn't know
due to being grounded all of the loud sisters wanted some revenge with the exception of Leni and lily
Leni didn't want revenge due to being worried about Lincoln being gone for so long
however the others weren't so worried
Lori wanted revenge for Lincoln sticking his nose in and causing her to lose the dress
Lisa was upset that he got rid of the sister fight protocol
Lola was upset due to having her more expensive stuff sold
Lana was upset that she had to clean things as punishment
luan was mad that Lincoln got her pranks taken away meaning she couldn't prank anyone while was he gone (no one else was upset at that though.)
Lucy was upset because she lost her coffin
Lynn jr was upset that Lincoln got her sports equipment taken away
Luna was upset that she got some of her instruments sold
they were all swearing revenge under their breaths for when he came back
(little do they know that will easier said than done.)
back with Lincoln
Lincoln watched as principal oak's komala win as pikachu and raichu tied for second
(you know when I woke up this morning I didn't see this one coming.) Lincoln thought to himself (but I was expecting not to expect something so it doesn't count.)
the next day
as Lincoln was sitting with Wes and bloop in class the egg Lillie had been watching over began to glow
"is it hatching?" Lincoln asked
"I think so!" Lillie said
the egg began to crack and then a white furred vulpix came out
"Wow!" Lincoln said
and that's that for now
yes ash's pikachu x team rocket's Meowth is a real thing and it's hilarious
