Authors notes: I do not own Pokemon! Hey everyone sorry for the long update for this story, things got pretty out of hand last year that prevented me from getting a lot done for this story and some of the others. But have no fear it is finally here and the next chapter is done. With a whole lot of things happening in this chapter that it is...quite literally lengthy, nearly 47 pages long to be in fact XD which was not the intentional idea but got so much fun writing it and explaining what the Prototype device does, along with revealing a little bit of Blaziken's past in this chapter, to then introducing an OC that a member offered Which I hope did justice for him near the end and fight. But anyway...sorry no who's that Pokemon for this chapter, and the answer is Glameow. So without further adieu enjoy and have fun!

"Hey Professor Oak, Robert, Leaf and…Mom?" Called out an overly excited Ash Ketchum as he waves his arms back and forth towards the traveling group as well confusingly his mother also? As just like Officer Jenny told them back in blare gits Professor Oak was indeed going to regroup and meet with the boy at Vermilion city and what is surprising is that not only is Oak coming to check up on him: but also Robert and Leaf along with his mother looking to be excited as the others along with whatever news: from the look on her face to go by, has in store for him.

Then again it is nice to seeing his mother again for over the month of his travels. Even Pikachu on his shoulder is wagging his tail and cheering over towards the group happily, including sparking his electricity happily once in a while though making sure to not accidentally shock his best friend and trainer. To then smiling over at Buneary on his left shoulder who looking quite bashful and shy about seeing what looks to be Ash's mother to then giggling when Ash places a hand on her head, flattening her ears "Don't worry Buneary you will love seeing my mom, and Professor Oak." They then lifted their head up at the group as Oak was the first to call out and waving his arm.

"Hey Ash how ya doing I hope you don't mind that I brought your mother along. Like me she too has something important to tell ya as well discovered something incredible!" Yelled Professor Oak. As our young Hero will soon discover something incredible about his family heritage that will have meaning and connection to as why he is able to see certain Pokemon humanoid figures, all the while something in store for Ash and his friends will be expecting someone incredible who will no doubt have incredible influence on our hero and his friends! As Ash and his Pokemon are eager to know what it is that Professor Oak has for him as well as what kind of information his mother wanted to tell him?

Chapter 17: A Date with Destiny!

"OH wow that is amazing Ash, I can't believe you actually managed to defeat Lt Surge!" Exclaimed Leaf in disbelief as everyone who were down in the sandy beach area of Vermilion city with different beach tables and chairs along with some umbrella's and a made shift grill on the side. With the ocean breeze blowing gently through the waters, through everyone's body and skin even whipping up some grains of sand into the air. Leaf then adjusted her hat happily while tilting her head with her brown hair sliding against her shoulders "and not only that but defeating LT Surge Raichu surf with Pikachu's Iron tail is just simply amazing!"

Robert had to chuckle and laugh "I would never think of using Iron tail in a way like that! Heck", Robert then took a quick sip of his soda while eye smiling to then placing it back down onto the white table "how I manage to get through surf attack was either stopping Raichu before he could use it, or having Senny start using swift attack to break through it…" then sweat dropped "and even though it didn't stop the surf attack, it did however hit Raichu perfectly." Informed the boy rubbing the back of his head getting some chuckles and laughter from everyone. He then leans forward "but ether way that is pretty cool of you Pikachu, taking on a full forced water type attack like that. If anything", Robert then playfully poke the electric mouse stomach getting him to giggle "I might have to watch out for your skills in battle if we ever face off."

Robert teased and then playfully rubs the electric mouse head as Pikachu purred and chuckled from the attention as everyone was having an enjoyable time, until Professor Oak began clearing his throat and extended an arm "speaking of Pokemon why don't you all introduce us to all of your Pokemon? Before I go and make my announcement as well Miss Ketchum here informs her son about her findings?" The old man suggested while then grinning "it will be awesome to see how you are all progressing and taking well care of your Pokemon!" Asked the Professor with a big smile making the three children look at one another and nod.

With Ash being the first to stand up from the table "sure thing Professor Oak!" he then grabs all the Pokeballs from his belt and tossed them out into the open "come on out everyone and say hello to the Professor and my mom!" announced the boy watching all of his Pokeball's shooting out white energy into the sandy beach. Revealing each of his Pokemon one by one, side by side with Gardevoir being the first who bowed down to everyone in a polite manner. Lucario next who immediately darted right towards Ash followed by Ninetails as they both jumped him and pounce him right into the ground, causing the boy to scream in fright and then grunts in pain from the two girls snuggling and nuzzling against him. Too then glaring at one another with serious looks in their eyes only for Ninetails, who saw Ash's mother and being a new person she is seeing yelped and jumps off from the boy running right back with the other Pokemon and behind Nidoqueen who came out next.

As the female Pokemon tilted her body and lift an arm up in curiosity of the shy and bashful fire fox, who sheepishly smile at her and quietly informed how she is quite shy to new people. Making Nidoqueen to raise her head in a 'ah' fashion while then saluting towards the Professor and Ash's well mostly to Delia since Nidoqueen already has met Oak. With the last Pokemon to be sent out was Blaziken who looked like is in a very grumpy mood and didn't even shouted, yell or did her battle cry or even Flamethrower ASH! Which the female just huff and waved lightly at Oak and Delia, making the mother to happily giggled and wave back at the fire-fighting type with a sweet smile, causing her to blush a bit and turn her head away some more. Gaining some teasing giggles from Gardevoir who had a mocking look on her face quietly stating 'oh so you will be nice and calm around the mother but when she is not around, you will harm and hurt Ash huh?' which caused Blaziken to shrink her pupils and then screamed and chirp at Gardevoir. With Nidoqueen holding onto the fire type Pokemon by wrapping her arms underneath Blazikens own lifting her up into the air as she thrashes and kicks her legs.

"I…I see what you mean now Professor Oak when you said how Blaziken can be quite harsh." Delia stated with a sheepish giggle. But began fawning and being amazed at the many friends and Pokemon Ash had made or caught, while laughing at Pikachu and Buneary hurrying themselves off the table and heading in line with the rest of the team. 'Judging most of their stature and stances they all seem to be females, strong ones at that.' Delia thought and then laughed when Lucario after coaxing from Ash and the boy scratching under her muzzle told the female Pokemon that if she behaves she will be able to play with the other Pokemon. Having her squeal in delight and ran right on over towards the other with a very big smile then grinning smugly at a fuming Ninetails earning some more giggles from Delia as she tries really hard not to boast in laughter of how lively her son's Pokemon are.

"Well now you all acquainted with Ash's Pokemon, here are mine come on out everyone!" this time around it was Leaf who went and stuffed her hands into her bag, throwing out four different Pokeballs into the air with all four opening up and sending out her team into the fields couple inches away from Ash's Pokemon team.

That consist of her Charmeleon who swiped her claws up and down to then finishing up with a show off pose by crossing her arms and swishing her flaming tail. The next Pokemon to come out from their Pokeball was Leaf's Butterfree who chirped and twirled in midair happily too twiddling his small little claws against one another with the third Pokemon who got sent out next is a rare Pokemon Cubone: which shock Ash and Robert greatly when the skull Pokemon appeared onto the beach ground with a big smile on its face while marching in place swinging his bone left to right as if leading a marching band, even twirling the bone around like a performer and Leaf last Pokemon to be sent out is a Clefairy, another rare hard to see Pokemon or at least catchable Pokemon who lives in Mt Moon.

"Oh my, you sure definitely have rare Pokemon with you Leaf and amazing finds as well!" Oak exclaimed happily as he stares at her lineup of Pokemon though surprised she has only caught four of them. Then again knew that the girl wouldn't really be all that much of catching or getting a lot of Pokemon joining her. As she is more of a traveler than a Pokemon trainer but when she gets serious in a battle, just like Robert and Ash: Leaf can be quite dangerous and skilled trainer when it comes to Pokemon battles. She just prefers to be either a traveler or someday being a Pokemon doctor. "Cubone and a Clefairy are really rare to come by, I am surprised you even manage to find either one of these two."

Robert nodded while smiling at her "I guess when you said wanted to check out something before we even reach Vermilion city; you wanted to go and check out some of the rumors we heard back where Bill told us about there being some migrating Pokemon that is not common around route 24 huh?" Robert asked with a chuckled as it seems he is next to send out his Pokemon onto the field, even getting shouts and cheers from the Pokemon themselves of wanting to see his party members as he gets up from his seat to prepare releasing his Pokemon as he heard Leaf giving a smug smile as she tips her hat.

"What can I say there are days where even I, a future traveling Pokemon doctor would have to keep her secrets from her friends. Even hiding some of the Pokemon she managed to catch during her travels with her best friend." Leaf winks at the group earning some chuckles from Delia, Oak and Robert but a disappointed aww from Ash.

"Right, right anyway I am only to keep one Pokemon in their Pokeball alright? Want that one to be a surprise so come on out everyone!" Robert informed and then threw out all five of his Pokeball's minus the one he mention as they all burst open and shot out their white beam of energy towards the sandy ground. The first Pokemon to be sent out was his starter Pokemon Ivysaur, who happily cried out its name and then smiled brightly at everyone waving one vine whip out to greet them all.

The second Pokemon to be sent out was Eevee who just as before bundle of energy bouncing and kicking the sand everywhere while running around in circles playfully chasing his tail around in circles to then plopping himself down on the ground with a happy squeak: even more so when his eyes widen in happiness including Nidoqueens own eyes, as he began barking and yipping at the fully evolve Pokemon amazed at seeing her again and how great that she has somehow fully evolved into her final evolution. With the Nidoqueen laughing and chanting back at the little male Pokemon, congratulating him on finding a trainer and even laughing bashfully when she then began telling him of how she almost hurt or harmed Robert and his friends when she thought they were hurting or attacking some of the Pokemon back at the preserve in which Eevee chuckled and snicker while waving a paw, saying how Robert had informed him about the situation but glad everything turned out great at the end.

The third Pokemon to be sent out next was Robert's Sentret Senny, who blinked her eyes cutely at all the Pokemon around her and went ahead to stand on the tip of her tail, in order to see all of them and getting better views. To then happily wagging her body to the left and right with great balance, thumping and pounding her paws onto her circle stomach. With Pidgeotto being the fourth Pokemon to be sent out as the flying type immediately soars into the sky, twirling and spinning rapidly into the air and then stopping its flight completely by falling backwards to then dive bombing straight down towards the ground that caused Ash and Delia to gasp lightly thinking the Pokemon had pushed itself to hard only to then defend themselves by blocking their faces when Pidgeotto quickly spun upright and darted mere inches above the sands too then climbing back into the air.

Finding a spot where to land and smugly raised his head up in proudness though sweat drop when Robert sighed with both hands on his hips saying "yeah…sorry about that Pidgeotto can be quite the show off when he wants to be." Informed Robert while rubbing his face lightly watching the bird nearly throwing a fit for ruining his dramatic entrance.

With the last Pokemon to be sent out next out of Robert's six Pokeball's is the water type Pokemon Horsea! Who happily appeared out onto the ocean with a happy cry of her name while dipping down and out of the water to even making happy leaps into the air, while twirling and firing off water gun in spirals!

"Whoa Robert how and where did you catch a Horsea!?" exclaimed Ash happily while getting up and grabbing his Pokedex to scan the Pokemon in the water who is happily jumping and leaping out of the water with glee and continuing to play around in the water by rapidly spinning in circles. As Robert chuckled with a big smile and placing his hands onto his sides.

"What is funny is that near route 11 which is just east from here. I was just minding my own business while training and teaching my Pokemon on some techniques or battle plans to use for any future fights! When suddenly this fisherman who was about couple distance away from me." Robert then looks up in thought while humming lightly "yeah think that is right, well he was fumbling about in getting his many fishing poles all set up and the likes. With him and his Pokemon Spearow getting all tangled up, offered me one of his spare fishing rods for helping him out and began telling me about how fishing lures can catch Water Pokemon in the lakes, oceans and even ponds." Robert then chuckled when Horsea let out a happy cry as she was being cheered and applaud by everyone else Pokemon. Even Ash's Buneary was hopping up and down throwing her arms up whenever she jumps, to then pretending to twirl and dance in place trying in her own way mimic Horsea own excitement and dance.

Once Ash got his Pokedex ready he faced towards the light blue scale water Pokemon with a ping coming from Dexter "Horsea the Dragon Pokemon! If Horsea senses danger, it will reflexively spray out dense like ink from its mouth and try to escape. This Pokemon swims by cleverly flapping the fins on its back." Informed the Pokedex as Ash then yelped when he felt a stream of water hitting him on the face, getting him to laugh and chuckle from the playful Pokemon stop attacking him. Wiggling and flapping her fins happily towards him and then diving down into the water.

"And so after helping the fisherman as well finding a spot to fish or at least give fishing a shot. Next thing I knew my rod has gotten Horsea in the water with the Pokemon", Robert then laughed while rubbing the back of his head "had apparently thought it was a toy and started playing with the lore by shooting her water gun at it and throwing it into the air." Robert then crosses his arm waving lightly at Horsea who is squeaking out at Robert in a fashion of saying look at me, look at me and what I can do! "I think the Pokemon thought I had dropped a toy into the water and started playing with it for a while then when she got done playing. She swam up to the shore and handed the rod back, not before realizing that I was reeling it back to me and nearly burst in excitement."

"Aw how sweet! The Pokemon must have really thought it was a toy you could shoot out and pull back in to ya only to firing it off again" Delia giggled while clasping her hands together "sounds like Horsea is quite the curious Pokemon in your team Robert." Delia suggested as the boy look over at her and then towards Professor Oak who went ahead to speak up, hearing some of the Pokemon gathering around or speaking with one another in the background.

"It is wonderful as well I heard it is quite difficult to catch a Horsea with a fishing rod considering most if not a lot of water types would take the bait. Tell me what kind of lure did you use?" Only for Oak to suddenly blink his eyes when Robert fully turn his attention towards the professor and said he didn't use any lures at all let alone doesn't even know how to fish! "Really!? Huh…then I guess it was pure luck!"

Leaf then snicker "or Horsea believed it was a rubber ball that was floating in the water. But yeah Robert here", Leaf then playfully places both hands onto the now embarrassed looking teen as he looks away from her at the same time rubbing the bridge of his nose lightly "hates fishing or anything that has to do with sports. Never once I have seen this guy pick up any kind of baseball, basketball or even soccer ball!" giggled the girl while she pulls away and with a heavy pat on Robert's back, forcing him to stumbled forward a bit "if anything and betting my money on it Robert, would have given up fishing after the first thirty minutes and continue on his way. That and the food we were cooking was nearly done." Informed the girl as she and Robert walked on back towards the beach table.

Too then Leaf feeling her Clefairy coming on over and hopping right on top of her lap after she sat down on a chair. Then cooing happily when she began petting her head getting Delia and Oak to laugh a bit "yeah Miss Arma has told me Robert can be quite impatient sometime" getting a hey from Robert. "But anyway before I go and tell everyone or Ash something important? Who here is hungry?" Oak then nearly screamed out when every single Pokemon minus Nidoqueen and Blaziken as well Horsea considering the Pokemon needs water. All whipped their attention towards the man and came rushing over towards and about to run over Ash as he is about to return the table. Only to completely missed him when Gardevoir went ahead using her psychic powers to lift the boy away from the stampede and placed him right towards her, too then happily letting him down with a big smile and immediately places her head right onto his shoulders with a happy coo of her name.

Getting Blaziken who watched this to sneer angrily at the affection she is showing and then swing her head to another direction. Unable to find a tree branch or spot for her to hide up onto or distance herself away from everyone: especially Ash himself as the boy could be heard thanking Gardevoir and laughing happily as he tries making his way over to the table once more. Only for Gardevoir making things difficult in her own teasing way by having the idea of hanging off from his shoulders. Laughing and giggling excitingly even feeling her feet getting tickled by the sandy ground.

This had Ninetails who is watching curiously at the female Pokemon to tilt her head confusingly. Wagging her nine different tails up and down pondering the sudden mood change from the psychic type? Only to then smiled brightly and eye smiling happily when she saw how happy and excited Gardevoir look, compare to earlier in their journey where she didn't want to have anything to do with Ash. Minus probably teasing him or messing with the boy, but seeing how different she is behaving and even having FUN with the boy brought a happy feeling to her heart.

Though the same could be said differently for Lucario who is trying everything in her will power to not stomp on over and tell Gardevoir off about hanging off from her MAN like that! Even daring herself to getting more attention from the boy than herself; Ash deserves her cuddling and putting his attention to her, even petting and messing with her and being glomp by her! And yet here is Gardevoir who originally just like Blaziken not wanting to do anything with the boy, except for maybe giving him somewhat a difficult time or messing with his head. Hanging off from his shoulders, pressing herself against his body and even trying to climb on top of Ash only for him too quickly telling her no and that they might get hurt if she were to try and ride on his shoulders. Lucario couldn't help but glare harshly at the female psychic type as they were walking past her, then flicking her ears upward when Gardevoir stuck her tongue at her in a teasing manner and then hearing Lucario, growling at her with eyes halfway open with her ears folded back against her head in a threatening manner.

To then start yelling and shouting at Gardevoir while throwing a bad temper towards the Pokemon. Who in a lady like manner got off from Ash and began spreading out her dress, to then snickering as she looks at Lucario with a playful work, causing Lucario to stop her thrashing and angry shouting too then blinking her eyes confusingly towards the psychic type. But got no answer from her as she just giggled while turning around folding her hands behind her back as she happily stride on over towards the beach table. Making Lucario to growl out once more and about ready to throw another fit but decided against it on the account what good will it do and will be wasting her energy on the Pokemon. Who knows what goes on in her mind and now that she is wanting Ash's possible attention now? Means that she now has another competition to be up against and with Gardevoir sexy and alluring curves she could possibly win him over without even trying!

"Hey mom are you going to be making lunch or should I?" Ash asked while walking on over and then happily extend his arm when he felt Pikachu running up to his back and climbing all the way up to his shoulders. Then chu when the boy began petting his head while taking his seat, to then looking towards his mother who happily smiled.

"Well I wouldn't mind watching you cook for us Ash but I would not mind cooking for everyone! Even having my famous outdoor barbeque hot dogs, corn, steaks and even cheeseburgers if you all don't mind!" Which she widen her eyes when everyone minus Oak shouted yes please with pleading eyes. Making the mother chuckle while placing a hand against her mouth "oh-oh my, my sons cooking has to be quite good if Robert and Leaf wants some of my cooking."

"You kidding!" Leaf exclaimed while lifting her fork and knife up into the air as she then smiled happily. "But yeah Miss Ketchum having a homemade meal taste amazing when a family member cooks it. And since you are family to Ash, with his amazing cook meals no doubt your cooked meals will be even more amazing!" Teased the girl as Delia couldn't help but close her eyes and blushed from being complimented by the girl.

"Hey my meals aren't that bad right…" Ash played while sweat dropping to then lightly chuckling "but yeah she is right mom! Your food is always amazing and then while we eat, could tell me what it is you wanted to say!" The boy beamed and even got Gardevoir nodding and agreeing with him. Getting his mother to smirk as she gets up from the table resting her hands on the edge of the table.

"Alright then if my son says so then I will cook for everyone and it's a deal Ash dear!" And got a groan from the boy asking her or hoping she wouldn't embarrassed him by saying embarrassing things about him or calling him with names like dear or Ashy-boy, oooh how he hates being called Ashy-boy from his mother. His rival Gary…always calls him that to taunt him or make fun of him whenever they challenge each other in something "alright then Ash how about you help me get things set up. Leaf you go and grab the food from my cooler bag and Robert." The mother then turns towards the boy only to shrink her eyes, more of everyone shrinking their eyes a bit as they saw that before he could get up and ready to assist them with the meal.

Almost every single Pokemon who were out of their Pokeballs minus a few, or mostly the smaller of the bunch were surrounding him and getting all up into his personal space. Begging and widening their eyes into puppy eyes at the young man, who is doing the best he could not to move an inch on his seat. Only to then get tackled and dog piled by almost everyone's Pokemon to then dragging him with them with happy yips, barks or cries of their names as the boy who is being dragged by Charmeleon. Shrugs his shoulders at everyone ad then laughed lightly "I…think have other plans." Robert chuckled out as Ash, Leaf and Delia blinked their eyes as they then turn towards what seems to be a laughing Oak.

"Trust me he will be fine apparently everyone wants to play and have fun with Robert. Or in Robert's case, they want the boy to play games with them and find some activities to do." Oak then thumbs towards the boy being brought up onto his two legs and then oomph when his Ivysaur whacks a rubber ball he found inside of Robert's bag and tossed it to him. "Something tells me they saw Robert having toys in his bag to either play with them or train them with." Chuckled the man as he then reaches down next to his chair opening up his own duffle bag "in any case he is going to be quite busy for when the food is done. So this gives me enough time to grab what I need and get it all set up." Informed the professor while happily tinkering and pressing on what appears to be a strange device with a flip open lid case, with what appears to be an opening underneath it for someone to slide their hands through and then click onto the belts together so it will attach to each other without falling off the persons arm.

"We-well since the Pokemon will be playing with Robert", Delia giggled lightly while turning her attention towards a smiling Leaf and Ash "that means we need-", she didn't get to finish as Pikachu let out a happy Pika and holding what appears to be the hot dog buns within its bag. While Gardevoir came up next with a smile holding the hamburger buns for the cheeseburger. As the two Pokemon then happily smiled and blush when Delia accepted the bags "OH thank you both was very kind of you, now come on let's get this barbeque ready!" Cheered Delia as she smiled at her son excitement who woot and fist pump into the air as he and Leaf went ahead to have the grill going and lit for the mother at the same time helping her get all the food onto it.

All the while trying their best not to laugh or burst out laughing when they heard the Pokemon and Robert playing with each other and the boy calling out to them of cheating or not playing fair. Only to then for said Pokemon to try their best to argue and say they didn't only to get caught from Robert and Eevee, looking down at the ball it was holding noticing it was covered in some of their attacks or had gotten somewhat dirty from the sands blowing into it and sticking badly on the rubber. Then screamed out when everyone dog piled on the Pokemon with Robert hand extended out to calm them down but sighs in defeat seeing his voice is going on deaf ears.

Xxx

Yeah everything is exciting for the group today as they were happily enjoying themselves and the atmosphere they were all giving out. With Ash and Leaf helping Delia out with setting up the table and plates, silverware and even bowls which they managed to pull Robert out from all the playful and hyper active Pokemon and giving him their food bowls for everyone to start eating and munching down on their own food.

Which would have gone greatly but whenever Robert tried to approach Blaziken and hand her food bowl. He will get snarls and growls from the fire type Pokemon and even feeling his hands getting somewhat thwacked when she swiped the bowl away from him to then stomping her way to eat in peace. Making him to tend his wrists lightly and rolled his eyes at the angry Pokemon, though had to stop and lean back a bit when Nidoqueen approach him to then gently grabbing his hand lightly, tilting t and shifting it around in a fashion of a mother to making sure he didn't badly cut or looked broken. When she saw nothing seems out of place and Blaziken not going out of her way to harm Robert let out a comforting sigh and happily chants at the boy saying how he is alright. Making him chuckle and pat her head lightly as he goes and grabs more of the food bowls.

As for Professor Oak who is sitting at the table and working diligently at the device in his hands. Couldn't help but laugh lightly when he had Lucario, Ninetails Buneary and even Charmeleon getting close to the man as well staring at what it is he is working on. To then nearly snorting when he felt Lucario softly placing her head onto his right shoulder, feeling her fur tickling and brushing against his skin curiously humming and growling lightly at the man. Asking him what is the strange device in his hand for, while once in while with a whimper tries to reach out and take it from him. Only to get her paw smack very softly from the man while scolding her about waiting till he is done, getting her to tend her paw while then sticking her tongue out at him. As she decided it wasn't important and goes on over towards Ash, ready to glomp him only to slam down the breaks when she saw that Ninetails had beaten her too it.

Watching the vixen rubbing and nuzzling her cheek against his side along with rubbing up against his hips and legs, dragging her nine tails over him and tickling him. Only to then yelp when Ash gently places a hand onto her back to rub it only for her to freak out a bit and darts under the table in complete shyness earning a soft aw from Delia. "Aw the poor dear is really shy…" informed the mother as she approaches the table and then knelt down in front of Ninetails, who widen her eyes and quickly covering herself with her tails "it's alright to be shy and bashful Ninetails: there is no shame in it." The mother said while stretching her arm out to then gently pets her head watching the Pokemon peeking between her tails then removes them completely with blinking eyes and hums happily. "You sure are a beautiful Pokemon and I bet Ash has taken great care of you huh?" The mother smiled while tilting her head getting a nod from her "then that means you really care for Ash right? Is that why you are shy or bashful whenever he tries and pets you, is because you're not sure if what you're doing is a good thing?""

Making Leaf, Robert and Ash to stare at Delia with confusion and realization as Leaf was the first to step forward and ask "are you saying the reason Ninetails tends to back off whenever someone tries to pet her and return her kind gesture is because Ninetails, doesn't know that she will scolded or punished?" Delia nodded as she happily stands up and watches Ninetails bashfully walks out and then yipped happily when Ash approached her and pets her head chuckling down at the female, telling her that she doesn't have to worry about that. "How could you tell from just seeing it Delia?" Leaf asked once more as the mother hummed and shifted her brown eyes upwards.

"Well I can say it definitely wasn't from her trainer that caused her to behave like this, so no one doesn't have to be concern about that. But I have a feeling ever since being a Vulpix and hanging around with her previous trainer, she might have been quite the hyper active Pokemon. Like children whenever they get overly excited or to hyper they tend to not pay attention to what they are doing." She then turns her head at Ash figuring it out right away earning a bright smile from Delia.

"I get it and since she probably just learned one of her Pokemon moves or becomes overly excited! She must have always accidentally use either Quick attack or ember towards her previous trainer without noticing they were getting hurt." The boy then laughed when Ninetails happily hops up onto him knocking the boy down into the sandy ground to everyone eyes. While for Ash she got extremely happy when the boy figured out why it is she is so bashful and shy or darts away whenever he tries to pet her or places a hand on her. Forcing the boy to feel her entire weight and nicely figured body rubbing, pressing and squishing up against him with her breasts rubbing roughly against his chest. Enjoying the boy rubbing and gliding his hand down her slender back "okay-okay girl! So that's why you always run from me when I try to pet you, you're afraid that I might scold you or yell right?" Asks the boy while getting a happy lick to his face and pushing him more down into the ground as Lucario. Who is fuming and puffing her cheeks out in annoyance.

Smiled caringly at the two and even wagging her tail happily as she now knows or understands why Ninetails does that to the boy. Her trainer "which means that Ninetails trainer used to yell and scold at her a lot, causing her to get quite scared over the course of her travels with them. Too forcing her personality to shift from her original persona in which is who we see right now." Robert finished the thought for Lucario as the aura Pokemon look down with a sadden look.

Leaf hums lightly while crossing her arms trying hard not to get mad or gritting her teeth "I don't know if I should be mad at the trainer or disgusted: to even acknowledge where the trainer is coming from but..." They all then heard Oak shouting ah-ha after finally getting everything done with what he is working on as well interrupting their conversation as it brought their attention. In which Leaf cleared her throat while spreading her arms out with open palms "do you mind Professor Oak we were having a discussion here."

"Oh-oh sorry about that you guys but I have finally done it and finished the latest prototype device I have received from a colleague of mine from Professor Ivy!" Exclaimed the man as he then cleared his throat while setting the device down on the table, as Delia who let out a gasp and wide-eyes quickly run over to the grill in order to make sure that the food wouldn't get burnt or crispy for anyone to not eating it "now.., you were talking about Ninetails right?" Which Ash and Leaf nodded as Ash then looks towards Robert, watching the boy flailing and trying to hold back all the Pokemon were jumping or trying to swipe away the food bowls away from the young teen.

"Hey Robert I'll help ya!" Ash shouted while running on over and seeing even his Pikachu is joining in on trying to swipe away the food making the inspiring young trainer to scoop the electric mouse up and had him facing towards Ash while then bashfully chuckle at the scolding but smirking face of Ash "buddy you know better than that! Now come on let's help Robert out with everyone." Ash suggested while throwing the electric mouse into the air "Thunder wave!" thus Pikachu began firing off waves of electric rings to everyone surrounding Robert, to causing the status effect of paralyze to everyone though failing on some of the smaller Pokemon or being completely avoided by some of the flying Pokemon who moved out of the way in time. Which the Pokemon who got paralyze glared over at Pikachu and Ash after the mouse landed back down on his shoulder, with the two widening their eyes in fear and then screaming out in terror when every Pokemon decided to charge at him forming a dust cloud with both Ash and Pikachu crying out mercy.

Robert gulped and had only pupils staring at the outrage Ash got himself caught into though not entirely getting hurt or harmed from the Pokemon group.

"I…would help Ash but I am prone to bruise easily." Robert excused lightly while laughing a bit at the hilarious scene in front of him as well doing his best. Not to get hurt or blinded by some of the sand being thrown around during the wrestling that both Ash and Pikachu are receiving right now. As he decides its best to let Ash and Pikachu learn what it means to 'not' get in the way of Pokemon and their food as he proceeds placing the last food bowls down "okay everyone make sure you find the ones with your pictures." Robert told them while pointing down in the front of the bowls so the Pokemon. Will know which bowls belong to whom as he stands up and heads back to the table, in time to hearing Delia announcing that the food is ready.

"Is that so…" Leaf asked while leaning against the tabletop "you say that the trainer behavior to Ninetails is the cause for her shift in personality, but it isn't because they didn't care for them or wanted them anymore, is just they couldn't figure out how or what to do after Ninetails began acting differently? That they decided to send the fox through the PC and leaving her with you Professor Oak?" Leaf asked while rubbing the side of her right forearm as she watches the old professor nodding his head with a smile while finishing up with the device he's been working on and seems to be done fine tuning it.

"Yeah it took me awhile figuring out behind the abandonment but after fully see her now and what Mrs. Ketchum just said about how she is and bashful I think finally figured out why it is that Ninetails was abandon by her trainer." Informed Oak as he stretches a hand out from his side of the table and begins petting Ninetails on the head as the fox happily hums and purrs from the petting treatment "is because of her 180 shift in personality that the trainer obviously didn't know what to do and afraid that if they were to continue training or traveling with Ninetails, with her acting all differently by her bashfulness and backing away from everyone like this: they probably thought they couldn't get anything done if Ninetails were to constantly run away."

Robert and Leaf let out the same time of "OH's" while nodding their head in agreement and understanding where Oak was coming from now. Ninetails abandonment was now in full detail and explained form Oak of why the trainer at the time abandon her although, it is still wrong to abandon your Pokemon just because of a stupid reason "either way Oak even if her personality shifted or not. A trainer shouldn't abandon them just because of their behavior taking a 180 turn like that all of the sudden?" Robert informed while smiling as Delia began placing everyone's meal with a big smile on her face as the mother giggles when she handed Robert his lunch and being thanked having two cheese burgers, while then giving Leaf her own and Professor Oak his meal too with all of them thanking her.

"Ash stop playing with the Pokemon to come and eat son! Your food will get cold!" Delia exclaimed while giving Ash his own big helping amount of food to eat and chow down on, which is the same amount of food Robert has. Making the older teen to stare disbelieving at the amount of food is on Ash's plate, causing him to raise an eyebrow lightly while looking up at Delia. Who giggled and winked whispering out "trust me Robert Ash has quite a huge appetite when it comes to my food." The mother laughed while they then heard Ash calling out that he will be right there and began crawling right on out of the beat down he was getting from the Pokemon who were being prevented from eating their meals from Ash and Pikachu.

Once he broke free and out from the fray he immediately darted right towards the table with a very hungry look in his eyes and happily smiled brightly towards his mother, thanking her for the meal and was about to begin scarfing down the food only to get his hand thwacked by his mother's spatula "Ash table manners young man I raised you better than that!" Delia scolded too him. Watching the young boy chuckling lightly while sheepishly rubbing the back of his head to then blushing in embarrassment from Leaf and Robert snickering lightly at the boy only to then lean back when Delia looked at them with the Spatula raised to their nose "now no teasing from any of you, you hear? We are all here to enjoy one another's company and have a great time with one another." Informed the mother and laughed when the older teens smiled bright and gave a happy nod with Robert giving a two finger salute.

"Now", Delia cleared her throat as she happily adjusted her long skirt with a sigh and begins setting up her own plate while sitting down next to Ash "I believe Professor Oak has some important things to discuss with you Ash. Something pretty amazing that he has been working on the past few weeks ever since you four left from Pallet town!" Exclaimed the mother happily watching her son who already began eating and cheeks puffing out with food. Blinked his brown eyes at his mother to then turning his attention towards Professor Oak on the other end of the table watching the old man chuckling at the three. While telling Ninetails to go ahead and eat her meal which she happily yipped and nuzzled her cheek against the man's thigh and ran off to find her food bowl "so exactly what have you been working on Professor? I never got the chance to ask on our way here considering I too was a bit excited to telling Ash about the discoveries I found!" Beamed the red hair mother making the children at the table to stare confusingly at the two adults and then at each other.

To then shrugging their shoulders as Ash tries his very best to pound his chest in order to swallowing the amount of food he stuffed into his mouth while then gasping heavily from nearly choking "ugh blegh…oh really mom, Oak what is it that you want to tell me?" Asked the curious young trainer watching the professor smiling happily at Ash while lifting up what appears to be that device he had brought looking to be working and turned on.

"Well my boy it is still somewhat a prototype but it is also a joint project that one of my colleagues from the Orange islands, Professor Ivy and I had started working on last year. But had sent her to finishing up the design and materials for this little device here while I go and work on the more complicated computer and technology aspects for the device." He then happily places the wrist looking device that seems to look like a mixture of what seems to be a Pokedex coloring but at the same time behaving like a portable computer device that fits on a person arms. "You see this device here that Ivy and I have been working on for the past year." The man then paused lightly as he goes and begins pushing couple of the buttons and setting on the device.

Making everyone there who is watching and making sure to taking some bites out of their sandwich to stare intently at it. Only for Robert to suddenly grunted when he felt Ivysaur rubbing and nuzzling his head against his leg, making Robert to stare down at the grass type who then stretches out his vines. Begging or asking if it will be alright if he could have piece of his cheese burger in which made Robert to chuckle lightly and peels off a small size of his burger and hands it down to Ivysaur who happily bark his name and carefully took a bite out of it as Robert smiles "and after I go setting things here and there along with making sure things are in working order…" Oak held onto his sentence and then laughed in success as the words 'please register a Pokedex' came on screen "good it is working! Ash could you please hand me your Pokedex?" Asked the man while stretching a hand out and happily thanks the boy who nodded eagerly while bringing the Pokedex out from his pokedex.

Then handing it over to Professor Oak "whoops…" Ash suddenly said as Oak let out a surprise yelp from feeling what seems to be ketchup smeared lightly on the covering of the Pokedex "oh man so-sorry Professor" Ash then blushed embarrassingly "should have used a napkin before grabbing."

"Oh Ash don't worry about it "Oak laughed happily as he grabs a napkin to wipe the Pokedex "you know how many times I stain this device while I was working on it? You wouldn't believe how much different oil, paint, scrap metal and yes", he chuckled at the end "even food get smeared on these things? It is a good thing I made sure they are proof from everything that might get into this little encyclopedia!" Oak laughed and earning some more from everyone at the table minus Robert. Who is doing his best to pay attention but at the same time, keeping some of his Pokemon away from the food or in this case EVERYONE Pokemon from wanting to taste some of the human food. Which always happens whenever he tries and sneak in some of his food to either Ivysaur or Eevee, which the ones who were begging and asking for food was Eevee, Lucario, Clefairy and even Buneary who were all giving the boy cute bubbly eyes at the young man who gulped and sweat drop at the collective stares he was getting from everyone.

"Now once we placed the Pokedex face first onto the device and have the portable trans-comp scan your Pokedex and information within the device. We should all be ready and good to go giving this a test run for what it can do!" Exclaimed Professor Oak happily as he can be seen eager and itching to show everyone his combine efforts with Professor Ivy and his greatest invention, despite it being a prototype and possibly having limitations it will definitely change ways of how Pokemon trainers will travel and being able to make things easier for them to raise all the Pokemon they had befriended or catch during their journey.

"It takes awhile for the device to register the information on the Pokedex which is something I am going to try and make up for once I get the resources again. But if we wait and allow it to scan the Pokedex, you should be able to do something wonderful Ash!" Exclaimed the man getting Ash to widen his eyes in excitement as he can't wait for whatever it is that he will be able to do with this prototype Trans-comp device.

"If you don't mind me saying this Professor Oak but I think the name Trans-comp is not a very good name don't you think?" Leaf informed while deadpanning lightly as she lowered her eyes halfway "it is an idiom for Transportable computer right, then should it have a bit more of a fancier or better name for the device?" Leaf suggested while watching the old professor laughing lightly as well sweat dropping.

"Yeah know where you're coming from Leaf and trust me the name for now is just a place holder. If you, Robert or Ash ever come up with a better name in the future. I will gladly re-name the device of whatever it is you three will come up with!" Oak informed happily and then smiled when he heard a ding coming from the device as he removes the Pokedex, seeing the 'OK' appearing on screen to then showing a PC symbol in the corner of the screen with Ash's name and how many Pokemon he has currently in his PC storage.

Making Ash to smile brightly to then grunts out when Leaf came around the table and shoves the boy down onto the picnic table in order to see the device in action with Ash having dilated eyes in annoyance while looking up at her "do you mind getting off of me Leaf?" Growled Ash as the girl just stuck her tongue out and took the device off the table to see what Pokemon he has making the boy to turn at the girl "hey that is invading privacy!"

"Oh come on Ash there is no harm of me looking to see what is being shown right!" Teased the girl while looking down at the screen "though it is impressive Professor Oak why is it showing Ash's PC box by the way? And Ash…" Leaf then nearly began snickering and snorting into fits of laughter "for someone who wants to be a Pokemon master you sure don't have a lot of Pokemon caught do ya!" Leaf teased as she is doing everything in her power not to make fun of the boy or laugh out loud. As Ash growled out and swipes the device away from her in frustration to then his eyes turning into dots once more from the girl now fully laughing "seriously Ash what have you been doing this past month besides training your Pokemon!" The girl announced laughing and giggling uncontrollably.

"I have you know that most if not all Pokemon Masters always have a slow start and don't usually go around getting every Pokemon they see!" Stated the boy with his head held high to then flinching lightly and lowering his head a bit when he heard Delia his mother laughing along with Leaf while making a statement.

"Well much I don't want to agree with Leaf dear she does have a point though. Most trainers by this point in their journey usually has a pretty good amount of Pokemon under their belts." Laughed the mother as Ash slowly turn his head at her like a crank with twitching eyebrows, wondering when this all became picking on Ash day?

"Come, come no reason to get angry Ash even though it is true!" Leaf teased while slapping his back hard and causing the boy to yelp in pain while then rubbing his back glaring up at the girl. "But seriously let's get back to topic; hey Robert…eh!?" Leaf turn her attention towards the boy and then twitched at the sight of what appears to be Robert once again being surrounded by some of the Pokemon who looked to be getting some food off from the table by Robert, ignoring their food bowls completely with their tails wagging and happily smiling up towards the boy. Who also has his own smile on his face telling the group of how it tastes and that they should not try to rush through their foods "ROBERT!" Leaf screamed while her head enlarging in anger forcing Ash to cover his ears from the sudden shout while making Robert who is sitting on the edge of his chair.

To nearly jump out of his seat while flailing his arms and then began juggling the plate of food in his hands trying hard not to having it fall onto the ground. Too then sighing when Gardevoir who was among the Pokemon quickly used her psychic powers to prevent his food from flying off onto the beach and then smiled happily at him with Robert thanking her though flinched when he got shouted at once more "Robert how many times have I told you about giving Pokemon some of the human food! Every time you do feed them the food, they will always want to try and have some more of it. I don't care what you say or do around with your food but you always tend to not finish them or even eat your entire meals. Cause of you always giving it away or sharing them to others!" Leaf scolded and yelled out at the boy as he is seen raising his hands up in defense trying to calm her down and waving his hands back and forth.

"I-I know but Leaf it is" then nearly falls backwards when Leaf thrust and jab her finger repeatedly on the boy's chest as she continues scolding and shouting at him with her eyes turning quite angry and scary looking towards him and the Pokemon behind him as everyone panic and immediately began stepping away minus Robert's Eevee, Ivysaur and Pidgeotto who were sitting there with the boy to take some of the shouting and yelling of Leaf as they were much guilty as the boy while lowering their heads down in shame.

"NO BUTS ROBERT you always do this and always get left with nothing to eat in the end. When you don't eat you start crashing and unable to get very far on your journey, don't you forget Robert that your health isn't the best, especially your sugar levels! What will I say to your mother if she finds out that you have been giving the Pokemon you catch or see your food but left with nothing on your own! Do you want to pass out in the middle of nowhere without anything to eat or help keep your blood sugar from crashing!"

"m-my I know Leaf can be quite protective with Robert…but I thought Miss Arma was kidding when she said that the girl adopted her mother like instincts." Delia stated with dotted eyes and blinking them along with Oak and Ash who nodded their heads slowly in agreement.

Ash then turn his attention down to the device around his wrist, pondering and curious of what it could do and waiting for Oak to continue explaining what it does or why it is showing his PC box and the current Pokemon he had caught on his journey. Showing Meowth, Flareon and Lopunny who are currently waiting and in Ash's PC storage box with the status of OKAY over their little icons. "Ahem right well anyway the reason behind the portable device, showing Ash's storage box is because of registering his Pokedex onto the device and having it scan the ID on said dex. It will allow Ash not only to see his Pokemon current conditions: this device will also allow you to being able to not only check your Pokemon. But also allowing you to being able too wirelessly connect to your storage box and switching out any of the Pokemon you have currently with you, to the ones in the PC!" Beamed and exclaimed the professor happily as well enjoying the wide-eyed expressions everyone is having. Even Robert and Leaf stopped from what they were dong to look at Oak with their own wide-eyed expressions.

"Whoa-whoa-whoa you mean I-I can switch out any of my Pokemon any time I want?!" Ash shouted while jumping out of his seat and pumping his arms in great enthusiasm. "Does that mean I can even call and switch out my Pokemon when I am in a Pokemon battle?" Which he lowered his arms when Professor Oak shook his head no but still smiling.

"No it does not mean you will be able to switch while you're in a Pokemon battle. That is the one feature Ivy and I made sure it will not be made. Considering it wouldn't be fair for those who don't have this device feel cheated out of the battle, if you were to show or switching out with more than six Pokemon Ash." Oak informed the boy making the young training nodding with a big smile. Completely understanding the situation behind why he wouldn't be able to switch during a battle.

"Okay I understand and you are right wouldn't be fair. So…how do I switch?" Ash asks while staring down at the device twisting and turning it feeling Pikachu, who got done eating his food with the girls ran on over towards him and climbing up his body towards his right shoulder. Too then peaking his head over the boy's shoulders sniffing lightly at the device in curiosity.

"Quite simple really all you have to do is grab one of your Pokemon Pokeball, return them inside of it and then place the ball on top of that little open slot where the Pokeball goes; you then choose which of the Pokemon you want to switch with on the screen by tapping on the switch command and hit confirm, viola! Instant transmission between your party and stored Pokemon have successfully switched give it a try Ash. I'm sure Lopunny would love to return back to ya, all the while Meowth and Flareon will want to meet up with the other members of your team." Explained Oak as he went ahead and begin eating his food that Delia had made.

Speaking of Delia the mother began clapping her hands happily as she really wants to see the other Pokemon as well "oh yes Ash please do I would love to see Lopunny, Meowth and Flareon! No doubt they are interesting Pokemon like the ones who are currently with you right now" exclaimed the mother as she would really like to see those three Pokemon as well. Sure she hasn't spent too much time with the group as of now, but seeing how well they were being taken care of and behaving quite amusingly around the boy. Along with the fact she now knows that Ash is able to see the female Pokemon like humans, just adds in the fun factor of seeing just how amazing they were.

Even by first glance at his Pokemon she can tell they were all very close to the boy, well minus Blaziken who is still warming up to her son. Everyone else seems to be very much enjoying his presence and having fun wanting to try getting Ash's attention to them. Definitely noticeable between Lucario and Ninetails who seems to deem one another as rivals; trying to get the boy to pay attention to either one of them by rubbing or pressing up against him or nuzzling their heads into the boy.

Nidoqueen it is hard to tell but seems to be quite calm and collective around Ash: though still can see quite fondness in the tall female Pokemon eyes for the young raven hair trainer, to even blushing happily at the boy when he isn't looking.

Gardevoir well if anything she could go on a guess on and the way the female psychic type seems to be glowing and unable to keeping that smile of hers away? Something tells Delia she and Ash had done something to make her permanently glow with excitement and love for the boy in which is possibly…well doing the act already. Which granted she should talk to Ash about it but hell will she embarrass him or tell him off about doing it with a Pokemon, if Gardevoir is glowing like this and seemingly being very close to him or literally cuddling with him without hesitation. Then why should she ask the two if they done it. Clearly they have and if Delia is remembering Gardevoir species correctly and with any Pokemon that needs high level friendship to evolve: Gardevoir or any psychic types for that matter will become very attached to their trainers and will do anything to making them happy and proud of them.

"Or my son case make love", Delia giggled at the thought and softly blushes "aw my little man is growing up no doubt he treated Gardevoir right." And here she is not getting upset or even mad about the idea of Ash and Gardevoir doing it together HELL, after discovering why Ash could see the female Pokemon the way they are and if they're very compassionate to the boy? Then what rights does she have of preventing the girls from making love with her son, after all and been told many times by Miss Arma.

"The most interaction a Trainer will have is mostly with their Pokemon. Rare occasion do they ever meet or travel with another human. Now I see why Miss Arm told me this a lot while we were growing up and it is true. I did not meet my husband until I was literally settling in Pallet town around 19 years old." Delia then got out of her thoughts when Ash shouted out cool making the mother to shake her head and blink her eyes over at the boy.

"Punny, pun? LOPUNNY!" Lopunny voice could be heard through the device and even can be seen on the video screen from hearing something tapping onto her Pokeball after Ash pressed the button to having her come over to the gang. To which opened up a different kind of space in the device and showed a full on screen image of Lopunny, who at first that didn't notice was seen flicking and plucking frustratingly at what appears to be a grassy fields. Which had the rabbit Pokemon to suddenly blink her eyes at the sudden change in scenery, making her tilt her head of why she is suddenly in a grassy field. Only to then hear Ash shouting cool which alerted the female rabbit to swing her head around her shoulders and beamed brightly at what appears to be a screen showing Ash's face. "Pun, pun, pun PUN!" she began shouting and cheering only to then grunt and face plant right against the screen too then falling backwards onto her rear, while she went ahead and began grabbing her muzzle tending to its injury.

"OH Lopunny you alright?" Asked the boy watching his Lopunny suddenly shaking her head to get out of her dazed state and happily hops back onto her feet. Smiling and giggling happily at finally seeing the boy's face as she then glared harshly at the boy. Causing Ash who is seeing this to chuckle sheepishly, knowing exactly why she is getting mad and that is because she wanted to fight Lt Surge and Raichu "Lopunny trust me when I say this; that Raichu of his is really strong and has almost every moves to being able to take down any type of Pokemon that comes its way." Though stop in mid-sentence which had Lopunny tilting her head, while then smiling happily at the sight of her little sister Buneary.

Hopping on up onto Ash shoulder waving happily at her and then became a giddy schoolgirl at the older sister. Who couldn't help but laugh with her and then literally beaming brightly when Ash, who wanted to get into a better position without throwing Pikachu or Buneary off from his shoulders opened up his jacket and smiled at the female Pokemon "but look we managed to win in an awesome rematch against Lt Surge, Pikachu Iron tail versus Raichu's surf attack it was really amazing!" informed the boy making Lopunny go into jumping joy and glee as she began bombarding the electric mouse of how he is able to over powered such a powerful move, or asking questions of how exactly strong is Raichu and would she stood a chance if she were to have a chance to fighting him?

"Huh Oak I thought you said Ash can only switch in and out his Pokemon? I didn't know he could also speak to those who were in the PC storage?" Robert piqued after finally getting done with his LOUD lecture from Leaf as he can be still seen rubbing and wiggling a finger into his ear. Approaching the old man while watching Ash, Pikachu and Buneary along with some of his other Pokemon who are gathered around interacting and speaking to Lopunny. Who then was approached by a female Meowth and a somewhat bashful Flareon though immediately became happy at the sight of the boy and ran along from the right side of the screen.

Professor Oak hummed lightly as he too was surprised of the featured as he then looks up in thought "hmm I might have forgotten some of the newer features Ivy probably inserted into the device before sending it on over too me? Then again we tend to overlook our own notes and forget to inform others about what kind of features are shown and given." Which Robert nodded but not entirely upset about it as it does seem quite fun from the looks of it. Even laughing at some of the funny gestures and motions both Ash and his Pokemon were given to the ones in the PC storage boxes or Transpute-ceiver as Oak had dubbed the wrist device which seriously he needs to come up with a better name for it.

Delia definitely seems to be enjoying it more than Ash is as the mother is definitely having a blast talking and interacting with everyone, including the Pokemon appearing on Ash's wrist device. Getting up-to-date information about Ash's journey, how he ran into some of the Pokemon or where he met them in certain cities and routes. Along with the mother getting more ideas on everyone's personality and behavior from the female Pokemon and she could not be any prouder of her son finding quite the fun batch!

Lopunny personality like a sister to her Buneary: is definitely one who prefers more of the action life, challenging things that really test her might and abilities along with being quite the tomboy when Delia began asking and pondering of what the girls looked like in their more humanoid figure. Considering unlike Ash, she is unable to see what his female party members look like which the girls happily explained what they all look like, minus Blaziken who is still calmly eating her meal with Leaf and Robert's Pokemon. But yeah Lopunny is definitely more of a tomboy and loves being adventurous and heavy on fighting strong opponents.

Meowth or Meowzy one of Ash's newest Pokemon he had caught. Definitely have the feline personality of hers and seems to have a strong sense of wanting to show her strength and has what it takes to show her skills, the air around the feline Pokemon is definitely of loyalty and is willing to do anything to make her trainer/owner happy best she can, along with having somewhat a 'lady' like persona meaning she is very dignify in the things she does and is not afraid to get somewhat dirty or feral in battle.

Flareon is definitely one of the more surprising Pokemon on the account the way she was treated. But since Ash told Flareon that she has nothing to fear and can show her true self whenever she is around him, his friends family or even Pokemon? This female Pokemon has a prideful personality out of every Pokemon here minus Blaziken, like all fire type Pokemon are prideful of their strength and abilities all the while having a very serene presence around the female Pokemon, how does Delia knows? Considering how cuddly Meowzy is with Flareon and allowing the feline to nuzzle or be close to her shows that this fire eeveelution has a very kind and caring side of her though she does get annoyed whenever Lopunny tries and flaunt out how her assets are more sexy than hers from what Delia and Ash could detailed out.

Though the group nearly burst into laughter when Robert Eevee heard Ash calling Flareon? The bundle of fluff energy Pokemon, used quick attack in order to reach Ash in mere seconds jumping onto the boy's head and looking over it pushing his hat down against his eyes. Squeaking and wagging his tail happily at the sight of seeing Flareon who had first step back from the sudden appearance of Eevee, but then began smiling and tilting her head to the side going into what appears to be a small discussion with the energetic fluff ball. Getting Delia to hold her stomach from hurting at all the laughter she is giving out along with the others as it seems he is preventing Ash from being able to remove the male Pokemon off from his head.

And basically that is how the rest of the greetings and hellos continued on with Delia seeing all of Ash's eccentric female Pokemon group. All the while getting a better idea with Pikachu, Buneary Gardevoir, Lucario and Ninetails as Nidoqueen definitely shows she is the calm and collective type Pokemon, all the while having this somewhat legal guardian character around everyone.

Lucario is quite the curious Pokemon she has ever met as it seems that anything new or interesting sparks the female Pokemon greatly and will immediately begin to investigate or ponder what that thing does to even lean close she could onto the said object or person. Sniffing and even lightly tapping her paw against it or them too then jump away quickly, then yipping with a smile as she goes back to the object or person again to tap on them again or see what makes it tick.

Ninetails out of the whole group seems to be the shy type of everyone and somewhat bashful. Especially whenever she meets someone new or out of the blue feels someone brushing her fur or petting the fox Pokemon, she will immediately squeak and dash away out of slight surprise though once she knows they mean no harm or want to pet the female Pokemon. She will blushed embarrassingly and then happily walks on back to the person who is brushing or petting her fur, definitely saw this right away when Delia tried petting the female fox Pokemon.

Gardevoir oh how she can definitely get along greatly with the female Psychic type. Caring, loving and quite the protector to those around her, everything about this particular Gardevoir that stands out the most is that she isn't afraid to show her fun side or even show others unlike most Gardevoir that she is quite interested in having fun or wrestling with another person slash Pokemon. Too even having somewhat a teasing side to the female Pokemon on the account from what she could tell between a small discussion with her and Ash out of Leaf and Robert's ear shot. The female Psychic type seems to enjoy teasing and messing with Ash a lot during his travels and can be quite the trickster Pokemon when she wants to be, though has quite the ticklish body as Delia could definitely picture their time at the river side of Mt Moon. Gardevoir giving the boy somewhat a hard time washing her; flinching and thrashing about from the tickling sensation going throughout her entire body.

Delia then stared on over towards Pikachu and Buneary who were being talk and spoken to by Lopunny after Ash. Who asked Nidoqueen if it will be alright if she were to switch places with Lopunny? Happily nodded and even roared out in her own speech saying to Ash 'no problem just remember to call me anytime and the other's' in her own language before being recalled into her Pokeball and were switched places with Lopunny. As Nidoqueen could be seen in that interesting world space smiling down towards Flareon and Meowzy who greeted her and welcomed her back, to then immediately asking her of how the fight went.

The mother just couldn't help but smile seeing just how happy everyone seems to be with her son. Heh even Buneary and Pikachu seems to enjoy being with Ash, especially Pikachu. Never has she seen two best of friends being so close to one another or having such a strong bond together that they will try anything in their power to making one another happy or feeling proud of themselves. That is definitely the vibe she gets from just looking at Pikachu alone if anything she could say Pikachu is like a long lost brother to Ash and is quite happy to finally finding him to then becoming close of friends.

Delia giggled at how bashful and loving Buneary is acting around Pikachu no doubt like Ash, Pikachu is also beginning to attracting girls towards him and falling for him. Though it does make Delia pondered if he will be in the same situation as her son Ash? Where it won't just be one Pokemon falling for him but others along the journey…if anything and what she could tell from Buneary. Buneary is a very loving Pokemon who has such a big heart it will be difficult to be mad or angry at the girl and possibly will even feel bad of herself, if she might accidentally had someone messing up or distract them from something unintentionally which would have them. Reassuring her that she meant no harm that is the feeling Delia gets from Buneary.

The mother then turn her attention towards Blaziken in the distance as she soften her eyes and sighed worriedly. The fighting/fire type story she had heard and gotten from Professor Oak along with hearing how she treats her son illy at time to time, though couldn't help but snicker at some of the tales of Blaziken flamethrower her son at times from invading her personal space little too much, or tries to pet or touch the female Pokemon without her noticing or warning her of him doing so. If anything and her personality is…she hates to say it but she has no idea what Blaziken is like?

The posture and angry vibe the fire type seems to showcase and emit is definitely scared along with keeping things to herself. Only question Delia has "what is it that she is scared of?" A mother's intuition is never wrong they say and what Delia is seeing or noticing that Ash seems to not be able to see. Is that Blaziken is scared of something how you may asked? Well considering how Blaziken is doing everything in her power to keeping Pokemon and Ash from ever getting close to her is one thing, violently attacking and thrashing towards the other whenever they ask what is wrong with her or why she is behaving in such a way is another reason.

THAT and when Robert's Eevee after getting done groomed and petted by Robert hops off from his lap. Only to then Robert having Ivysaur coming over to the boy and nudging his head against the boy's legs, wanting to be groomed and petted by him along with Senny doing the same on Robert's other leg and getting him to sigh out playfully.

Delia watched the Eevee try his best to walk and approach Blaziken or even carrying his food bowl with his teeth towards the female fire type. Who just opens one eye at the fluff ball of joy, then blushing lightly when he happily places himself onto her lap and sat the bowl down in front of him. With Blaziken having her arms raised up in a defensive/what are you doing fashion looked left to right in case anyone is watching and stares back down at the Eevee who is behaving cutely, looked up at the female with a tilt of his head and a smile. Only to then blink his eyes with a squeak of his name when he felt Blaziken lifting him from both sides. Too then carrying far to the right of her as possible and giving him a little light toss away from her which he grunted after landing back on the sandy ground and trotted couple steps forward to then swinging around to face her, then flatten his ears while lifting one paw up soon after the fire type Pokemon tossed his bowl gently at him though making sure it wouldn't spill over.

Then turning her back towards him and going back to eating which had Delia giving a caring smile. Feeling somewhat sorry for Eevee as the little guy just wants to be friends with the girl. But is constantly being denied by Blaziken or even getting roughly shouted by the Pokemon telling him off whenever he tries to lift his food bowl back up and sits by the girl, only to given up at the end ad carries the bowl back over with the group. "I wonder what it is that she doesn't want to show or is scared of Ash or anyone noticing something from her? If anything and the way she is quite defensive about it…along take into fact that fighting and fire type Pokemon tends to have pride. She might also be afraid of being shamed by everyone, whatever her trainer did besides saying horrible things to her and breaking her Pokeball right in front of her. Must've really destroyed her confidence and trusts for other…" Well she can't do anything about it or she would be able to do something about it.

But after couple hours and few attempts of getting close to Blaziken. The mother has notice the fire/fighting type is HIGHLY afraid of her and would immediately start freaking out and does her very best to running away from Delia whenever she spots the mother to start approaching her, making the mother to well laugh and giggle at the Pokemon. As guessing the term of feeling a mother's wrath when messing with their children is no stranger to apparently Pokemon! She even laughed when Leaf even mentions how seems like Blaziken fear of being chewed out and scolded by the mother, will do her best to keeping her distance away from her in case the boy or his Pokemon had told her about the way Blaziken mistreats Ash.

Couple more hours went by as everyone was enjoying the peaceful day with each other along with their Pokemon. Having mostly a blast with the device on Ash's wrist and what it could, what is allowed and what isn't allowed to even explaining from Oak of how the device will automatically lock itself if Ash is in a Pokemon battle. Asking how that will be possible Oak went ahead and points to what appears to be a lens on the device that is near Ash's hand, showing that there is a camera there that is program and has a built in scanner that will know if the trainer will be in a battle and make sure to lock all its features from being used for cheating purposes or the trainer switching out a Pokemon from the PC storage box.

While this is going on with the trainers, Professor Oak and Delia; Ash's Pokemon deciding they had enough fun and enjoyment from learning of the device Oak is giving Ash. Went ahead to go and do whatever they feel like doing and spend time on the beach some more before everyone gets up and heads on out in their own direction with Pikachu, Buneary and Lopunny going off playing with one another in a game of tag, Lucario just standing by with Robert's Ivysaur and Eevee all taking a little quiet nap and huddling together. With Ninetails speaking and chatting with some of Leaf's Pokemon asking them of how everyone is doing and how Leaf's journey is coming along with Robert?

While Gardevoir who isn't too far from the table and yet not too close to it either, is happily and lovingly staring at the backside of Ash her lover, her mate rejoicing the amazing memory inside of her head of the two making amazing love with one another and fully making out with each other as her blush kept growing and getting the girl to giggle, clasping her hands to her cheeks with a big smile and bashfully covering her eyes while shaking her head left to right in pure happiness as she couldn't believe how amazing that love session felt even not feeling odd whatsoever when she did with a human too! She even read Ash's mind during their love making and was surprise to hear how Ash thought the same of how right it felt making out, kissing and having sex with the female Pokemon.

The Pokemon just sat there smiling lovingly at the boy just having quite the dreamy look on her face. Pondering and wondering if the two of them will be able to perform the act once more later down the road, ooh how that will be nice and amazing thing. Hell she could have some fun with the boy outside of her Pokeball like how all cute couples do! Kissing playfully against one another's cheek having their lovers carrying them in their arms or just cuddling and snuggling as they walk with each other to their next destination. This had Gardevoir giggling like a school girl nearly squealing out in the open almost alerting everyone there to her excitement as she quickly covered her mouth and then eye smiled.

Though unaware that Blaziken who is close by and staring at the female Psychic type with her teeth baring lightly. Couldn't believe how ridiculous Gardevoir is being! Behaving like a lovelorn who just experienced the most exciting thing ever in her life, which makes it disgusting to know or even seeing a Pokemon crossbreeding themselves with a human! A HUMAN, she doesn't fucking care if the boy they are with right now is able to see them in humanoid forms or not. No Pokemon in their right mind nor desperate enough.

Should ever considered seeing humans as possible mates and lovers! That is wrong and sickening to even think about it or doing a taboo of forcing themselves onto the humans. IF she recalls it is humans who will do harm to them and hurt them in the end if they were to ever show affection for Pokemon. Her trainer is prime example of it and now Gardevoir, will no doubt make the mistake of trusting Ash into thinking he will keep loving her and having her around throughout his entire journey.

"Ken." No she stated, she is not going to let it happen nor will she have Gardevoir tainting the minds of the other females into thinking the boy's a saint! Clutching her talons tightly into her hands and beginning to march her way over towards the female Psychic type: all the while being mindful of Eevee being next to her considering the little fluff ball kept insisting of wanting to be friends with her and wanting to eat nearby her; had Blaziken making sure none of the sand gotten into his food as she steps over him.

Making the little Pokemon to blink his amber eyes a bit too then turning his head over his shoulders. Watching the fire type marching right on over towards the Gardevoir, causing the small Pokemon to whimper lightly knowing that trouble is about to start between the two of them, which Eevee immediately began running straight towards the trainers hoping he will be able to reach them in time before a fight breaks loose between Blaziken and Gardevoir.

Xxx

Speaking of the two and Gardevoir quietly licking her lips lightly undressing Ash in her head and thoughts heard what sounded like crunching of sand near her being stepped on by a Pokemon. Making the female to growl out in irritation of being brought out of her fantasy world of her and Ash doing it again has the girl. To lean back with a disgruntle sigh with both eyes closed to then opening them up towards the person who interrupted her daydream. Too then blinking them wider at the sight of a very, very pissed off looking Blaziken who had her arms crossed over her very large and supple double E cup breasts that were being pushed up by her forearms and squishing against each other "…voir?" she asked the fire type with a tilt of her head with a yes?

To which Blaziken responded back with a sneer quietly shifting her gaze towards Ash and then back at her with Gardevoir doing the same. When she looked back at Blaziken the female Psychic type moved her hands apart with open palms doing the motion of 'yeah what about Ash?' fashion. Earning another low growl from Blaziken even though it is not needed since she isn't exactly relaying the message clearly. Situated herself by moving one leg up each and removing her arms from her chest, to then thrusting a finger talon right up against the center of Gardevoir's face causing her to cross her eyes at it and then up towards Blaziken.

"Blaziken ken blaze-blaziken!" The female fire type growled out with deep rage behind her voice and in a threatening tone too. Demanding and asking Gardevoir of why is it, while not openly asking about what she did last night, she seems to be so interested in the boy or does she not care that everything he is going to do with them in future will just turn his back on them?!

Making Gardevoir who is really getting tired of this argument being repeated over and over throughout their entire journey. Let's out a frustrating sigh of annoyance and slaps her hands onto her own knees while standing on up in front of the female Pokemon, being couple inches smaller than her. Glared at Blaziken who returned it back to the psychic Pokemon "Gar-de-voir", she stated with each syllables of her name and then humps by flicking her head up to then start walking off away from the girl.

Stating how she doesn't need to listen to all this bull crap again or needing another repeat with Blaziken of how 'trainers are evil, trainers will turn their backs on you' blah, blah she is sick and tired of arguing with the female Pokemon over something that will ultimately go into a battle between the two of them. Plus add in the fact Gardevoir called her an immature witch for not letting go of the past and keep moving forward: just because she had one horrible experience with one trainer. Doesn't mean she will have constant repeats with every single trainer that she will be partnered with.

This, this got Blaziken blood boiling and rising greatly throughout her body as she never felt so much rage in her entire life! Moving one talon hand absently towards her right side of her rubs gently grasping and holding onto a very hard to see scare beneath her red feathers, growled and shouted out with a thrust of her arm forward. Forcing Gardevoir to completely stop in mid-step with wide eyes as Blaziken screamed "OH and fucking my trainer just to feel happiness isn't your way of coping with your emotions!" through her Pokemon tongue that literally had Gardevoir froze in place. As Blaziken thrashed her arms down and continue shouting towards the female Pokemon with sheer hatred.

Shouting and screaming towards the psychic type that she is just fooling herself, wanting to believe that loving and mating with Ash will make everything to go away. Thinking that coping by doing this will make all her worries and troubles go away making everything so perfect in the world of Gardevoir!''

"Voir…" Growled Gardevoir in saying towards the fire type to shutting up. As she continued pressing forward and telling the psychic type how just because she will find happiness in mating with Ash. Will not make anything or everything to go away and that the boy will sooner or latterly break her heart by being or pairing up with a HUMAN girl that is a lot better than being with someone like her. "GARDEVOIR!" the female Psychic type spun around while throwing her arms as she once again tells Blaziken to shut up!

"Voir, Gardevoir, voir, voir!" Gardevoir screamed and thrash her arms around telling Blaziken off. That she knows nothing about her or what she can or can't do with her life. Let alone telling her what she can feel with her emotions, stating how she and her are nothing alike and it will never be the same! Having the psychic/fairy type breathing and panting heavily in anger feeling the blood boiling up inside of her; her face red in embarrassment of how in the world Blaziken knew she and Ash even mated with one another?

But Blaziken continued pushing and pushing saying how she probably forced Ash into doing it with her, she probably forced Ash to having no choice in the matter forcing him to take of her needs and pleasure of what it could be felt like mating with a complete stranger. Basically having him be forced down, stripped away of his clothing and against his will because of how strong her sexual desires were "VOIIIIIR!"

"Oh right Ash there was something I needed to tell you before I forget again; I have searched." Delia went to say after everyone had calmed down and got over the excitement of the Transpute-ceiver device in the boy's wrist. As Ash who took down his drink ready to listen to his mother continue on what it is that she had searched for, only for everyone to gasp and jump out of their seats of what sounded like a very loud explosion very close by and near them. Forcing them all to getting up and running over towards where they heard it from.

At the same time spotting Eevee running towards them squeaking and shouting out at the group, only to stop by slamming down all four of his legs into the sand and immediately turning his entire body around soon as the explosion erupted not soon after he finally gotten towards the picnic tables. Flattening his ears at the sight of different fire and psychic type moves being thrown at one another, erupting and exploding sand everywhere! "What the hell is going on!?" Leaf shouted while running pass Eevee who jumped out of the way and began whipping, turning his head up at the group who were rushing past them and then squeaked when he felt Robert hands scooping him up into his arms and followed right after everyone else. With their Pokemon also following right behind them to seeing what is going on and pondering who in the world are attacking?

Unaware couple distance behind them and standing there with a Charizard and a shiny Gardevoir next to the tall man. The three of them look over the hillside leading down towards the beach witnessing the battle that just broke out or the conversation being made between two Pokemon. Who seemed to be arguing and fighting over something he was not completely sure, but from the expressions Gardevoir is giving along with interest? It seemed to have something to do with the young raven hair boy in his Pokemon league hat that they were arguing "well…we better go and intervene in-case things get overly hectic between the two. Or their trainer getting hurt badly from one of their attacks", the tall man stated with a slight worried tone but mix with amusement. Never has he seen Pokemon being quite passionate in things that may relate to their own trainer that will break into a fight. Even if it is just two Pokemon though he didn't want to risk any chances that they were very strong in their skills or power as he went ahead, grabbing all of his other Pokeballs from his belt hearing Charizard scoffing lightly and shaking his head.

"I know Charizard but still it is better to have everyone out and preventing those two Pokemon attacks. From over-shooting or flying straight towards the others and having more casualties you know that." The man chuckled as Charizard sighs while hanging his head down with a shake of his head. Agreeing and his trainer is correct, better to protect everyone than having their reckless attacks and type moves flying everywhere that might hurt someone nearby. Gardevoir next to him just giggled being somewhat surprised and interested of over-hearing the two Pokemon, reading through their thoughts a bit and actually got one hell of a shock to hearing how this trainer's Gardevoir? Had managed to admit her feelings and love for him all the while even proving to show him just how much she loves him, being very careful of her timing and showing this boy Ash, just how much she loves him.

Xxx

Back with the others or more of a jumping-jack Blaziken and a twirling, jumping and barrier using Gardevoir who were at each-other's throats trying their best to actually scoring a hit to one another. To prove and show that either side were wrong about what they think of the situation or more of wanting to force and show Gardevoir from Blaziken point of view. Of how sick and wrong she is of thinking that loving and breeding with a human being is seriously messed up! Along with stating how Gardevoir is quite the sick Pokemon to ever thinking it will work out between her and Ash; saying that he will just betrayed her and everyone around her by falling and becoming infatuated with a female human who will no doubt will be better in Ash's eyes than some Pokemon!

Who after tilting her body from dodging a Shadow ball from the female Psychic type Pokemon, to then cartwheeling out of the way from a Fairy type move Disarming voice that echoed loudly throughout the entire beach area as rings of energy came flying towards Blaziken, but missed entirely when the fire type Pokemon got out of the way of the attack and counter-attack with Blaze kick as she jumps up into the air and then dive straight down towards Gardevoir by flipping forward at the tip of her jump: then arcs straight down towards Gardevoir.

Though was futile considering Gardevoir smirk and had her eyes glowing blue using her Psychic attack against the fire type Pokemon, who grunted and felt her entire being becoming completely frozen in mid-air as she tries desperately to breaking out of it. Only to then get blasted with a loud boom and nearly get sent backwards away from Gardevoir.

Bouncing and tumbling against the sandy ground nearing the tip of the ocean water "Voir, Gardevoir", stated the psychic/fairy type as she crosses her arms over her chest. Announcing out that Blaziken won't win and can't even win on the account how different their beliefs are, all the while now that she has complete trust with her trainer or Ash in this case: she has the duty of making sure to protecting and defending the young boy from anyone who may want to harm him or herself. Giving her the strength she needs in order to fight someone like Blaziken, especially over who is right about how they should share or show their true feelings too the one they love or like!

"Hey what did I told you two about fighting and arguing with one another! I thought told you two that it isn't good for the team morale!" shouted Ash across the sandy beach, alerting Gardevoir quickly towards his general direction. Watching the boy and his friends, Oak and even his mother rushing their way over towards the two fighting Pokemon as Gardevoir, softly turns to face the group with sadness crossing her facial features as she watches Ash with Pikachu on his shoulders stopping right in front of the girl with confusion "Gardevoir…oh." Surprising Gardevoir at how he just said and then looks over towards Blaziken with sympathy and disappointment if he already came to a conclusion of who started the fight. "Did she", Ash went to say only to stop in mid-sentence when Gardevoir shook her head no, to then patting herself while stating how she is the one who attacked first.

Making Ash to nod lightly while understanding that Gardevoir is the one who initiate the fighting by attacking Blaziken. Though what for will be the question as the fire/fighting type who is near the ocean and water is slowly regaining feeling back into her body, as she is slowly moving and lifting herself up from the ground with her arms tugging close to her body and then flattening out her talon hands onto the sandy ground. Shaking her head lightly as she began feeling the water brushing up against her feet and legs growling in frustrating by slowly lifting her head up towards Gardevoir and now others who were near the girl. Red is all she can see as her anger definitely broke through its limit and is all she can right now.

Just watching the Pokemon interacting and speaking towards the trainer like he is no threat to them! No threat to the Pokemon who are with him, traveling with him and knows deep down he will betray them all and hurt them. She doesn't care if his kindness to them is real or not she knows it is just a ruse, a ruse…like her own trainer who was the same like him…her the same as Gardevoir. Tears…? Blaziken felt her eyes burning and vision blurring up as she felt tears falling down from her eyes but for what reason…

Jealousy that she couldn't get the same happiness that Gardevoir and the other Pokemon were having? Unable to receive that kind of love anymore from anyone or even ignoring the boy's attempts of giving her that same love? Or is it because she wishes that the situation between her and her original trainer were the same as what Gardevoir and Ash shared.

What happened to that happy Blaziken, the little hyper-active and go getting Torchic she used to be before evolving and becoming who she is now along with becoming serious with her trainer. It isn't fair she thought while rising up onto her hands and knees: nothing but red at the direction of Gardevoir. Why does she get to have happiness and succeed in getting a human to be alright with it? When she tried doing it and attempting it all it got for her was pain, horrible pain from her trainer and getting badly injured for it. WHY, WHY is it that a psychic type worse an elegant Pokemon is able to do something that Blaziken tried so hard for nearly a two years of traveling with her trainer? Only for her to be denied of the true happiness she wanted and get seriously injured, leaving her for nearly broken…unable to accept what was happening around her, watching her world crumbling and falling apart all around her.

Blaziken fully stood up with claws digging deep into her talon hands almost ready to draw out blood from them as her flames began roaring out from her wrists and ankles. Breathing and panting rapidly as her anger, frustration and even her rage were breaking out of her limit seeing everything and everyone as the enemy now. "Worthless piece of shit Pokemon is this what you have been trying to do all these years!? You're disgusting you think just because of showing affection or pushing yourself on me, ya think will turn me around and fall for someone like you?! Think again…!" Blaziken closed her eyes in fear when she heard screams of her own name being attacked and slashed at by one of her trainers other Pokemon.

Who were thinking the along the same line as him and thought illy of the starter Pokemon. No matter how hard she plead, beg and ask for forgiveness from the young man. He did not let up or even told his Pokemon to stop attacking her, harming her and leaving her nearly dead on the route. Too almost having one of his Pokemon nearly leaving a huge gash across her right side leaving a terrible scar behind, a reminder for Blaziken and an oath she had made to never once again trust anyone that is human, trainers and even Pokemon who agrees with them. "Blaziken you alright what's wrong why are you crying!" Ash voice ranged out in which had Blaziken widening her eyes at him with a very scary scowl that literally caused everyone there, including Gardevoir to nearly freeze up and felt their skin crawling at the very scary kill intent coming off from the girl that literally scared some of the Pokemon who were nearby.

With Pikachu, Eevee, Charmeleon and Ivysaur all to step in front of their trainers, Professor Oak and Delia from whatever action Blaziken might do or even harm them in the process. Though even if they do stand in front too protecting their trainer they too were shaking and sweating badly at the high level kill she is giving off. Even Leaf's Charmeleon felt nervous about fighting Blaziken, considering how she is a fully evolve Pokemon and a very powerful one at that if she recalls what Leaf told her. Charmeleon is worried that she might be able to protect her trainer and friends?

"I am not showing mercy nor am I going easy on you just because I told them to stop." His voice echoed inside her head as Blaziken pupils were disappearing completely through her yellow eyes. Showing just how far in her rage is consuming her and began taking steps forward at the group in front of her. Tears rushing down over her cheeks and down to her beak "It wouldn't do me any good if I, kill something like you. Even though there are so many reasons why I shouldn't let you live; but instead make you live through this guilt instead." Is all she could remember him saying before blacking out in front of her trainer and hearing the snap of her Pokeball breaking and dropping down in front of her.

Too be left there to die on the cold wet muddy slash bloody ground he had left her to lay in. "Bl…Blaziken calm down!" Ash shouted while he grabs her Pokeball ready to recall the female Pokemon back to her ball, only for Blaziken to letting out a powerful battle cry of pain and agony to then dashing straight ahead at everyone! Tilting and weaving herself between the red beams of lights shooting off from her Pokeball that is trying hard to bring her back into the Pokeball.

"IVYSAUR STUN SPORE!" Robert voice cracked while rushing his voice out to command the grass type in hopes of getting its Stun spore attack out. While Leaf with her own rushed tone told Charmeleon to use Metal claw at the sandy ground in hopes of throwing the grain of sands into Blaziken eyes, in hopes of blinding her and forcing her to stagger as the two well everyone steps back in complete fear. When Blaziken jumped into the air powering up a full power Flamethrower at them all as Gardevoir.

Quickly moves in front of everyone in hopes of bringing up her Barrier in time as she felt the entire world around her was slowing down. Fear etched across her entire face as she isn't going to make it in time and fail in protecting everyone from the raging Pokemon as her eyes widen in fear from the orange glow illuminating right in front of her!

"Wing Attack Charizard!" shouted a male voice from the distance as the next thing they heard was a great roar. Too then seeing something going right in front of Blaziken, causing her to bulge her eyes out and nearly choked from her flamethrower reverting her blue pupils back to normal as she felt the entire air in her lungs leaving her and then screams in pain from feeling another wing thwacking right across her head and sending her flying backwards from everyone. Bouncing, tumbling and rolling uncontrollably on the sandy beach unable to stop herself or even get a footing until she finally came a stop on her stomach and slide across the sand. Groaning and moaning in great pain as whatever hit her hard was definitely strong and the attack itself, being a flying type move also nearly whipping her out instantaneously as she felt bruises all over her body and face.

"Blaziken!" Ash shouted and then everyone who were holding in their breath and felt death in their presence let out a loud breath of relief. With some of the Pokemon nearly collapsing scared out of their skin feeling themselves skipping couple years ahead from what they just almost experience. While Gardevoir nearly fainted as she tumble back but felt Ash grabbing her in time, with Lucario, Ninetails, Buneary and Lopunny rushing on over towards her and Ash yipping, crying out literally thrashing their limbs about if the two of them were okay.

Only for them to stop and whip their attention towards the Charizard who is standing high and proud in front of everyone, puffing out small flames from his mouth. Staring intently at the injured fighting type, somewhat surprised to seeing the female Pokemon managing too getting back up onto her feat. "Recall your Pokemon we don't want a repeat earlier. Also don't worry her rage should be calmed down from a blow like that." A young man announced while approaching the group with his Pokemon going on ahead of him and dong a formation that seems very odd and out of place to everyone.

Ash who look at him and then back towards the rising and crying Blaziken, hesitated a bit as he watches the fire type Pokemon. One of his partners just on her knees hiccupping and crying heavily on the spot not moving, not accepting anyone's presence or even looking towards them. Only…only to lift her head lightly and through half-closed eyes stares at Ash causing the heart of the boy, to nearly choke him and felt sorrow going through it just from making eye contact with the girl. "Ash recall Blaziken please we don't want to go through that again!" Leaf raised her voice in case the boy didn't hear the man or was too afraid to hearing anything. Which jolt the boy that caused him to shake whipping his attention at her and then back to Blaziken who lower her head with gritted teeth in shame which he nodded lightly.

"R-right Blaziken re-return." Stuttered out Ash as he goes grabbing Blaziken Pokeball that he dropped onto the ground and aims it at the Pokemon with the red light shooting out towards her and absorbing her back inside the ball.

Xxx

"Thank you young man for your help earlier." Professor Oak chuckled out lightly while shaking hands with the new comer who had ordered his Pokemon to come and attack the raging Blaziken, who almost blasted everyone with her Flamethrower attack.

"It was no problem was kind of hard to have some meditation with all the racket. But seeing what was about to happen I couldn't let her hurt you guys." Informed the man while he stares over towards Ash Ketchum. The current owner of said Pokemon who seems to have a very worried and upset look on his face as if contemplating of what he just saw really happened. "He even knows Blaziken had a reason behind her attack and possibly saw her crying out of pure sadness. Whoever mistreated her before getting Blaziken must've been really horrible event for the girl." "Hey Ash it will be alright Blaziken will be back to her regular…somewhat self." Shrugged the man making the boy to lift his head up at him with a huh "if I know about fighting types they usually calm themselves down after getting the sense knocked into them."

"Yeah…" Is all Ash stated quietly while thanking the man for the help. As the young boy sighs and placed Blaziken's ball with the others to then laughing softly when he felt his mother placing a hand onto her sons head rubbing it gently.

"Again thank you for helping us and my son back there what you did is truly amazing." Delia smiled while giggling a bit from feeling her son removing her hand from his head and then bows gently "if there is anything we can repay you with." Which the young man raises his hand up and shook his head.

"Oh no-no need to repay just doing what anyone would do to help out. Now if you excuse me, my Pokemon are waiting for me to train them." He informed as he turned his back on them and began heading on out to where his Pokemon team were, with his Gardevoir who was with him waved happily at the group and follows her trainer. Leaving everyone there to stare confusingly at the man and pondered who he is as well where he came from?

Definitely a strange fellow that is for sure and since it is getting somewhat late in the day? Professor Oak and Delia should head on back, speaking of Delia after watching the young man walking away and towards his Pokemon. She widen her eyes with one hand near her mouth "oh my gosh I nearly forgot about what I needed to say!" she then giggled and turns around towards Ash with a big smile "oh Ash I need to tell you what I discovered back at home with Oak." She started saying as she folds her hands down in front of her stomach with a tilt of her head. "Ash I have figured out the reasoning behind of why you are able-"

Only to once again something interrupting her and completely having her stop from what she is about to tell Ash. When the entire party heard what sounded like another explosion happening very close by them and started worrying if that young man is in danger? "Come on let's see if he is in danger sorry mom!" Ash stated while rushing on out over the dune hill with Robert and Leaf, who looked at one another with confusion to then shrugging their shoulders while Leaf hum lightly as they both decided to go ahead and follow Ash as Delia stretches her arm out.

"But Ash it is really…important oh brother." The mother joked while looking sheepishly at Professor Oak who just smiled. "Seems like I raised him too well don't you think Professor?" Delia said while rushing on over after the children leaving the man behind as he chuckled at the same time rubbing his head gently.

"Which is exactly why I believe he is right for those Pokemon, especially Blaziken." Before he went and follow them the professor looks back to the spot. Where Gardevoir and Blaziken were fighting to nearly almost trying to hurt one another with Blaziken on her hands and knees, crying heavily with tears…anguish behind those hurt and sad eyes of hers "just hope Blaziken will be able to see just how much Ash is willing to show her how kind everyone is. That not everyone is exactly like her old trainer…"

Oak said to himself quietly while shaking his head softly he really does hope that this journey will have the head-strong fire type Pokemon open up more to the young man. Too even trusting everyone around her and knowing they are not here to cause her harm. Anyway he better go see what is going on the other side of the sand dune.

Upon finally reaching up the dune though tired and losing of breath "phew…need to remind myself to start working out more, if a silly dune like this is making me exhausted. I better catch up on personally checking the Pokemon back at the lab instead of papers and videos." Chuckled the Professor as he tried to openly make a joke and have someone laughing or smiling towards him, only to see everyone with wide eye expressions and concern on their expressions considering of what they were witnessing.

"That is it everyone doing this will help us out, make sure not to let up or show any kind of mercy." Came from the young man ordering and training his Pokemon in what appears to be…training? But a very odd way of training and the fighting style they were using seems to be quite…brutal "Beedrill try swinging your stingers in a left-to-right motion not only will it pick up in better speed, but also gain an advantage against those who are very defensive. With the sharper end of your stingers will no doubt having them letting their guard down for an open attack." Informed the young man nodding at his Beedrill, who paused a bit and stared at its stinger for a bit too then buzzing its wings in approval and does so against the strange sword and shield looking creature it is facing up against.

That look quite out of the norm for everyone there who couldn't tell what Pokemon that was. Even Ash is having trouble getting information of the Pokemon, as the Pokedex stats data not found on the Pokemon. Which said Pokemon who is battling against the Beedrill sounded like it is getting hurt, as well having trouble defending itself against the bug type Pokemon who is effectively using its twin needle attack effectively!

"Glaceon sweep and slide all around Gardevoir even if you're on four legs doesn't mean your limited to movements. Gardevoir, conjure up much smaller reflects to shield yourself against any types of attacks that may come to you in any directions. Just because your eyesight is in front of you, does not mean your psychic powers and senses aren't limited to what you see." Even though his advice and methods of training looks to…be extreme and the way his Pokemon were fighting one another and attacking one another in such a fashion and way they are hurting each other is very brutal.

"The way he is training his Pokemon are way too rough how are they not protesting against this kind of training?" Leaf stated with a light growl well granted. Everyone has their own way of training their Pokemon or having them fight in a certain fashion, but the way they were attacking one another looks and feels like they are fighting what appears to be fight to the death kind of fashion.

Robert who is watching this and lightly curling his fingers into a fist wanted to lash out. To tell the guy off from what he is doing but…he can't for some odd reason? But he will definitely not stand for this especially when he saw Charizard fighting against what appears to be a Sneasel, who is doing her best to avoiding and dodging the very deadly and violent claw swipes the fire/flying type is trying to deliver towards the small Pokemon. Then hearing it squeak out in pain and nearly going flying across the sandy beach only to flip onto its legs and slide against the sandy beach "HEY!" Robert raised his voice down at the man causing the Pokemon there who were training and fighting one another to look over at the boy.

Who came running down carefully the sand dune with his Eevee following right behind him. Curious of what he wanted? With Charizard lazily lifted an open claw up grabbing Sneasel paw before it could get a sneak attack against the flying type, to then grunting slashing and kicking her limbs at the fire type Pokemon then groan in annoyance and stops its attempts completely while hanging off from the Charizards hand with a very annoyed expression on its face.

"Yes can I help you?" The young man asked while turning to face Robert and his small Pokemon following right behind him as the boy who approached him couple inches away and lightly breathing a bit, trying to get some air back into his lungs raised one finger up into the air. "Ah take a deep breath and hold it in for a few seconds then let it out." Suggested the man with a small smile as he watches Robert doing just that and then exhaling out looking a lot better and having air back into his lungs. Too then tilting his head in a huh fashion, at how that worked then looks up at the young man "yeah it is a useful method but don't rely on it too much. Anyway is there something you want because as you can see we are kind of busy." The man informed while thumbing towards his Pokemon, though deadpan when sounds of Sneasel shouting and yelling at Charizard to letting her go! Only to then yelps loudly when he did let her go and face planted right into the sand.

Robert crosses his arms as the others began approaching the two "yeah the way you are training your Pokemon. What or why are you having them do such harsh methods and even having them striking, hurting and harming one another! That is not how you're supposed to treat your Pokemon!" Robert exclaim while pointing over at the team "can't you see how tired and exhausted they are or even care that they are hurting their friends throughout this entire training method of yours…uhh."

"Des." The young man stated quickly already catching on why Robert paused and lifted an eyebrow lightly at him. Which Des happily told or gave him a nickname he always goes with.

"Des…okay, can't you see", Robert repeated then shook his head and once more thrusted a hand over at the Pokemon group. Who do look tired but not extremely exhausted sweaty yes, exhausted no and they are really used to this type of training, well minus Sneasel who is the newest addition to the group as it finally pulled its face out from the sand and began spitting it out from her mouth.

"That treating your Pokemon this way is no good to forming a bond? Why having them train in such a way that they will harm or hurt one another to brink of exhaustion or unable to move at all!" Robert stated while standing upright with slight anger and frustration in the way Des is treating or having his Pokemon train in such a way that the man in front of him sighs lightly.

Too then looking towards his Pokemon team as they stared back at him, not at all disproving or seemingly against the idea of his training let alone hurting one another. They like him, were all thinking the same thing and that is this kid doesn't understand or know the situation they were in. Or what kind of place they live in except for Sneasel who seems to be somewhat out of loop and no matter what or how many times they tried to explain the ice/dark type Pokemon of their situation. It seems to either not really care or just really interested in the way they were training and helping one another to improve their skills "look…you seem like a person who really, really cares for his Pokemon and others around you and I respect that. But", Des started saying while closing his eyes moving one arm to his left shoulder rolling it around a bit "and not going to bore you with the whole everyone has their own way of training. But considering the type of situation and events we went through as of recently it is beneficial that we. Train in such a fashion in order to make sure too keeping our training up and going without slacking."

Robert furrow his brows along with giving a somewhat angry look towards the man. Causing Des who open his eyes and stares at the young man in front of him, while hearing the others or more importantly Leaf agreeing and shouting out how it is wrong to treat his Pokemon in such a way, while the youngest one Ash. Seems to be puzzled and not entirely sure what he should say or do as the boy seems to be indifferent or not entirely understanding what to do in this situation. "Tell me what way or how do you train Pokemon, for what purpose for the way you train them?" He asked turning the question around towards Robert who blinked his eyes and then felt Eevee, who is behind him did an impressive jump onto his shoulders while squeaking happily at the boy.

How does he train Pokemon? Guess that is a fair question Robert thought while thinking through of how he should answer, to then petting Eevee on the head "I train my Pokemon in a way to improve their skills so this way we can be ready when we face off against my brother!" Robert informed with a determined smiled at Des. Same with Eevee who nodded though both of them blink their eyes while their smiles disappeared when Des sighed in somewhat a disgusted way and shaking his head "what?"

"I'll ask again why do you train your Pokemon and how do you train them?" Des asks again as if he doesn't like the answer Robert had given him. Making both him and Eevee to raise their eyebrows, to shifting their eyes at one another a bit and then back at Des ready to answer only to back up when Des raised a hand "don't repeat the answer tell me the truth of what it is or why you train your Pokemon?" Des demanded the truth from Robert, as if what Robert is telling him isn't the right answer or even the truth?

"Err…to help them improve their skills and ability so we can…prepared for when." Once again Des stops him with annoyance. Making Robert to grunt lightly as well lowering his eyebrows "what! How do you want me to answer then?" Robert asks while moving a fist up not in a threaten manner, more of how does he want to answer. "We been training and practicing our skills so that we can prepare ourselves for when we go up against my brother sometime in the future or even the Pokemon league! How else will we get strong if we don't!?" There's the full answer and from the looks in Robert's eyes that Des can see?

His eyes were telling a different reasoning behind his training of his Pokemon. Along with possibly something else too which is very faint in the words he is speaking. Though the looks on Eevee definitely shows the truth behind the boy's words as he squeaks and growls out of why he is questioning Robert's own training…but seems like he knows the real truth behind it and is definitely happy with how Robert trains him and his party members. "Seems like his Pokemon knows the true reasoning behind Robert's journey and seems Robert does too…but seems like something changed it over the years." Des went to speak only for him and Robert who is about to ask, while taking a step back to think through of what kind of answer he wanted.

Both look down towards the ground at the sight of Sneasel who somehow made its way between the two of them with their conversations. Staring intently at Robert and his Eevee to then smirking and widening its smile greatly followed by hopping up and down against its legs. Looking up at Des with one claw pointing at the boy "Sne! Sneasel, sel, sel!" it chanted and demanded from Des of wanting to fight and battle Robert. Saying how she can feel a strong presence from the boy or a very strong will coming from Robert as it really wants to test its might against him.

"Sneasel I don't think that will be appropriate, you are still new to the team and learning our fighting style." Des informed sternly while crossing his arms down at the Sneasel. Who puffed its cheeks out and crossing its arms like Des, being stubborn and not moving from its spot unless it fights Robert! "Now Sneasel we went through this just because you pout or huff your cheeks out. Doesn't mean you will always get your way, just because I say no does not give you the right to openly ignore me." Des informed with slight annoyance but with an amused tone in his voice while hearing Robert chuckling lightly.

"Dude I know how it feels Pidgeotto is the same with me whenever we meet or greet somebody on the road." Robert informed but smiled "but why not? I wouldn't mind seeing your way of training is doing well for the Pokemon and can show just how effective it is compare to our ways of training." Robert stated and suggested why not? If Des think his method of training isn't harming his Pokemon but actually more profitable then Robert won't question his methods of training, plus it will be interesting to see just what kind of style the man could show.

In which Des who was about to protest and said no couldn't help but raised an eyebrow, then smiling himself as he saw a very big spark in Robert's eyes. One most trainers usually have when they want to challenge someone, but this spark or interest from Robert? Is actually showing that he wants to know him better by fighting and interested to seeing if his style is strong, like a true trainer willing to challenge those who are strong. Not to prove themselves or impressing someone in their skills, just out right wanting to see how strong they are and if later could be friends "so that is his way of fighting and training…to make friends to those who are strong or knows they care for their Pokemon. He maybe training his Pokemon skills and abilities to wanting to beat his brother, but the real reasoning behind it without him knowing. Is to reach out to his brother and show that being strong is not the way of being on a journey. Very well then I will learn from his heart and Pokemon to understand his real meaning behind his training."

"What the heck why not, it will also do some good for Sneasel I guess, along with it will show how far along she is with her fighting style. Robert, I accept your challenge." Eh why not it will be good for Sneasel and it is true, he would like to see just how far in the ice/dark type Pokemon gotten through his methods and new fighting style he has been teaching it as of late.

Though Leaf seems apprehensive about the idea of Robert battling this man especially the way he trains his Pokemon. Though all of them seemed to not mind at all and even looking interested in what kind of fight Sneasel will have against the boy "we will do four on one fight with your four Pokemon, too my Sneasel and don't worry about it not being a fair fight. I'm sure", Des then looks down at the now even more eager and pump Pokemon "she will enjoy it greatly to fighting more than one opponent." This had Leaf widening her eyes and whipping her attention at Des, ready to protest and telling him how that will be too much for the small Pokemon.

Only for Robert speaking up before she could protest "if you are sure she is able to handle it? Then I don't see why not." 'That and considering her typing…she can probably beat my Pokemon without much effort because of type advantage. But will still try my best to making sure to give an excellent fight for him and Sneasel.' Robert said and thought to himself at the same time as he shook hands with Des seeing the man nodding in agreement.

Oh how things seemed to have gone from interesting to incredibly bad for Robert in just a few minutes after sending out his first Pokemon against Sneasel. He knew that this battle is going to be tough with his current team members considering Ivysaur and Pidgeotto were Grass type and Flying type Pokemon. Who were weak against Ice type Pokemon, which Des demonstrated greatly by commanding and ordering Sneasel in such a way that one would considered unimaginable to see!

Its movements, its speed and fighting style just like the training is harsh and very deadly during battle. Especially the effectiveness he had the dark/ice type Pokemon do with its Ice Punch attack. Two forward jabs right into Ivysaurs face, sides and ribs were very deadly and hard to follow. Even being able to parry and block his Razor leaf and Vine whip attacks with little to no effort but still managing to get in some hits on the Pokemon who gotten overwhelmed when Robert, had Ivysaur keep his vines out and slamming them down onto the sandy beach to lifting it into the air, then flinging itself over Sneasel in the air to then firing off Razor leaf at her, followed by some Stun spore.

Though Des counter attack by having Sneasel using Icy wind against the leaves and stun spore. Freezing them in place and having them fall right onto the ground, though unable to freeze most of the razor leaf as a few of them managed to make contact but not enough to slowing down the Pokemon. The next Pokemon to come out was Robert's Pidgeotto after Ivysaur fainted and passed out from getting a heavy round house kick to the cheek, flinging the semi-heavy Pokemon off the ground and rolling towards his left.

Making Ash and Leaf to wince lightly at the brutality of Sneasel attacks were and how rough the odd fighting style was when used against the grass type Pokemon. Ivysaur despite being somewhat bulky couldn't really handle the swiftness of Sneasel along with the multiple Ice punches she been dishing out at him, surprisingly only taking about five minutes to knocking out Ivysaur. Too which Des couldn't help but smile from this as he didn't expect someone who from the looks of it, traveled for about two months to have a Pokemon last this long against Sneasel. Then again he has to take into account he just gotten Sneasel as a new member, so it hasn't fully awaken its potential but the results he is seeing is quite good enough.

Pidgeotto though after being sent out and began fighting Sneasel faired a little less than Ivysaur, which is understandable considering that in order to strike or even hit Sneasel? Robert had to find a way for him to swoop down and immediately fly back up into the air, only for whatever fighting style Sneasel has been learning? Actually slapped both her claws onto the side of Pidgeotto's body and then used Icy wind point blank on the flying type to then throwing the bird over its shoulders, slamming it straight down into the ground which had everyone flinching and guarding themselves from again…another brutality the Pokemon just delivered instantly knocking the bird right out and fainting on the spot.

Making Robert to rub the side of his hair while questioning and pondering of how he should handle the fight with his next Pokemon, though got reassured by Des that he himself did not think Sneasel could pull that off, on the account of her size and height it usually goes flying from the initial hit. Too then saying how Pidgeotto would probably even lift it off the ground, which Robert responded back saying how it was smart of the Pokemon to use Icy wind at close range.

Though he had notice how the man hasn't at all compliment Sneasel on the good job of being able to take out two of his Pokemon? Though the only noticing thing Robert could tell whenever Sneasel looking at him for a praise, is a small nod from the man in which causes her to tilt her head while lightly scratching the side of her cheek. Then puffing it out in annoyance and then face front once more as if ready to get a praise out of him, wagging her finger at Robert to send out the next Pokemon. In which Des who saw this couldn't help but deadpan lightly while shaking his head with a sigh…considering the Sneasel possibly did not understand of his praise and compliments of the Pokemon great progress of showing her skills against Robert's Pokemon, or understanding that his nods is sign of praise and approval…he might still need to work on that as well that sass of hers.

The next battle that took place was Robert's Horsea and Sneasel which you'd think Horsea has the advantage over the land driven Pokemon. Being in the water and all as well not on land will give the water female Pokemon an advantage over Sneasel who is a land Pokemon. At first she seems to be winning or at least having the edge in battle with the combination of bubblebeam and Water gun firing off straight at Sneasel.

But the ice/dark type Pokemon is proven she can be quite nimble despite being on land and not close to the ocean waters. As she is doing amazing twirls and jumps into the air while avoiding the many different bubblebeam and water gun firing at her, to then sliding underneath what looked to be an aurora beam? Which surprised Des a bit when he saw the attack curious if this Pokemon was bred or not…then again one will be surprise of what Pokemon can learn what. But thanks to the aurora beam being an ice type move, gave the man an idea of how to beat Horsea without too much concerns. By ordering and telling Sneasel to freeze the water surrounding Horsea by using Icy wind near the Water type Pokemon.

After that and trapping the water type after few minutes and hurting it with the ice move. Looking ready to faint Sneasel, who approached the water type with light breathing and sweat pouring down her own body. Twitched her ear and look towards Des, telling her to finish the Pokemon off earning some confusion by her and looking down at the Pokemon who is whimpering and crying in slight pain from the icy wind constantly hitting her. Sneasel also whimpered and turn her head towards the man while shaking her head, to then flinching as she closed her eyes with a hiss at the man shouting out how its kill or be killed at the girl.

In which Robert stares at him with a harsh glare and thrust Horsea pokeball out recalling her back inside of it. Making Sneasel who watched this to sigh lightly with relief and then happily ran back to the shoreline, chanting at Robert for recalling the Pokemon who nodded at her. Then glared when Sneasel went to look at the man for signs of approval though whimpered a bit when he just glared at her, while stating the female Pokemon of why she didn't go and finished the job? When knowing that in the world they live in is what it is?

Giving Sneasel who stared at him for couple times to humph and blew raspberries at him and then turn her head up in somewhat disobedience or not caring of the motto of his. Earning some snickers and laughter from Leaf and little bit of Ash who saw this. Which Des who was about to discipline stop midway of his movement while shifting his gaze to the corner of his eye…rethinking of what or why she done it and then just slump his shoulders lightly. Letting it go for now but reminding himself to later on informing Sneasel of what is going on around them after they get done battling and…guess he will have to apologize as well for the Pokemon.

After all Robert and his Pokemon are not the enemy this is just testing to see whose training methods are good for their Pokemon. No war, no important battle to be made here just an innocent, if not fun fight between two trainers who just newly met. As he then sees Sneasel flicking her wrist in a manner of let's get the show on the road and gets back into her fighting stance once more for Robert's final Pokemon which no doubt is Eevee as the energetic fluff ball hops off from Robert's shoulder and got poise for battle!

Xxx

"You sure want Sneasel to keep going? Fighting three Pokemon in a row will definitely be taxing on any Pokemon." Robert called out towards Des who nodded in return. Showing that he is quite confident in Sneasel skills and the way things are going? The ice/dark type Pokemon can probably continue till the fifth Pokemon came out and then finally fainting, even if she is breathing heavily or sweating a bit she is eager and ready to keep going.

"I'm sure Robert and might I say", Des began as he harden his stare. "You are quite the trainer even for someone who only traveled for two months, never have I seen Pokemon managing to not only survive or stand up against my Pokemon moves? But being able to semi-keeping up and taking their hits while still getting their own attacks in is good." He complimented as the boy in front of him blinked his eyes confusingly while then raising one eyebrow, waiting for that but. Which Des couldn't help but laugh on the inside as not only is Robert good at taking care of his Pokemon but he is very observant…meaning his fighting style can be determined as timing his Pokemon moves just right or knowing when they are about to attack. 'There it is took me awhile to figuring out his fighting style but Robert fighting style seems to adjust depending on what Pokemon he uses in battle. Ivysaur despite being somewhat slower than Pidgeotto and Horsea, is one of maneuverability by using its vines as means of mobility and throwing its weight around in order to escape certain attacks. While doing so or air-born he will follow up with an attack or having Ivysaur using a powder attack to inflict status effects on his opponents Pokemon."

Des then closes his eyes to think through of the other two fights even though Pidgeotto was over in mere minutes, he already deducted what style Pidgeotto has "Pidgeotto style is dive in and out while following with possibly with his Flying type moves as such Gust, possibly even twister to confuse or blind his opponents by picking up dust or dirt surrounding his Pokemon or just blow them away with powerful gust of wind. While following up with either quick attack or Wing attack to deliver physical strikes to his opponents…in a hit-and-run tactic. Same with Horsea but with long range moves since being water Pokemon and all." The man then opened his eyes and stares at Eevee who is raring to go and eager by digging his paw into the sand and kicking it off lightly "now what kind of battle style will he do with Eevee?" Des said to himself as the next battle is about to get underway and started with the final match.

"Alright then if you're ready Sneasel we will make the first move! Eevee let's start things off with Quick attack!" Robert called out while swinging his arm outward watching the fluff ball squeaking out and leaping forward as he begins gathering energy around his body and darts quickly ahead leaving behind a white energy trail, causing the sands to literally get thrown into the air from the incredible speed and power Eevee is showing as Sneasel braces itself for a commands.

"Alright Sneasel counter with a two jab Ice punch." Des ordered calmly while biding his time when Eevee got close, then widen his eyes at the suddenness of the small Pokemon slamming down all four of his paws and then darted away from Sneasel when she went to punch her right arm forward, but missing completely while widening her eyes at this and then screeches in pain when Eevee: who hopped towards the right quickly slide against the sandy ground, while then darted right back into the ice type with quite the strong force of power that caused Sneasel to yelp with each bounce she made against the ground, while then digging her claws into the sand to hopefully stop her sliding only to then grunt out badly when Eevee continued once more with his Quick attack and slammed right into her stomach, sending Sneasel into the air. "Sneasel Icy wind!"

"Swift Eevee!" Robert and Des both commanded at the same time with Sneasel opening its eyes while then flipping upright as it then thrust its mouth forward to fire off Icy wind down towards Eevee. While Eevee counters back with his Swift attack by gathering yellow energy around his tail and then does a very heavy spin in place with his tail stretching out, throwing multiple stars straight towards Sneasel. Exploding and erupting when making contact to the Icy wind and barely missing the Ice/Dark type Pokemon when she fell back to the ground and runs forward at Eevee.

"Fury swipes with your fighting style." Des commanded while stepping forward. Only to then grunt lightly when Robert told Eevee to use dig and burrow into the ground. Which the little brown Pokemon did so and just barely avoiding Sneasel first claw swipe with the Pokemon, stomping her foot down frustratingly as it then goes down onto its hands and knees. Peeking inside the hole curiously with one eye "Sneasel stay alert and focus don't let your frustration make you blind." Shouted the man in slight annoyance only to then sweat drop and groan at how his Pokemon. Who turn its head away from the hole yells and shouts at him of stop stating the obvious or knowing about not letting her frustration getting the best of it.

Too then jumping away from the hole thinking Eevee was going to pop up from it, to then cartwheeling at the last minute away from Eevee digging out from behind and missing completely. To try and counter with a forward punch with her claw, only to feel Eevee's hind legs bucking up into her arm forcing her to get thrown off course and then yelp after the brown Pokemon landed on the ground and shoulder tackle her only for Eevee to yelp in pain when Sneasel, right before crashing onto the ground twirled her body in midair: delivering a double roundhouse style kicks into the male Pokemon and sending him flying towards the left from itself, bouncing and awfully close towards the ocean waters "Quick Icy wind!" Des quickly commanded while pointing towards the ground in front of Sneasel.

"Eevee get out of there with Quick attack and follow up with Shadow ball!" Robert commanded as the fur Pokemon with his ears upward and flapping when it shook his head, darted away from his spot and avoiding the icy wind Sneasel just used. Waiting the right moment to use Shadow ball after it gets done firing off the move, to which he leaps into the air forward flipping while gathering a purple orb of energy in front of his mouth and fires it straight towards Sneasel who slashed straight down the middle of the attack, splitting it into two and exploding right behind it to then smirking smugly when Eevee fell back to the ground began fumbling and slipping uncontrollably on the icy ground the Ice/Dark type had created.

Earning some snickering and laughter from the ice type Pokemon who is trying its best to be serious in the battle. But still shows that it is somewhat having fun with this fight, making Des to shake his head though quietly on the inside also laughing at the funny expressions and looks Eevee is giving as he tries desperately to keep his footing. Though yelp out in pain when Sneasel ran forward with a short hop and landing onto the icy ground, ice skating all the way towards Eevee who began flailing and shaking his head right before Sneasel delivered a heavy elbow thrust into his chest sending him flying. Too then jumping off the ice and dashing straight towards the normal type Pokemon "Eevee recover by using Dig!" Robert commanded quickly in panic then flinched when right before could land down on the ground.

Got hit by the first ice punch to the right cheek of his and then to his left cheek with another ice punch to it. Followed by Sneasel after swinging from the left side, spin her body with her left hook motion to deliver a powerful kick to his ribs and then another one with a short hop kick once more into Eevee's ribs with another powerful kick into it. With sounds of pounding echoing throughout the entire beach area followed by Eevee's painful screech as he went flying with incredible speed away from Sneasel.

Not hitting the ground or barely hovering right over it, until he finally did hit the ground tumbling uncontrollably! "Eevee!" Robert screamed while giving chase to his buddy as Sneasel. After recovering from her incredible and deadly combo fighting style she was taught. Blinked its eyes at the spunky Pokemon and nearly gasps in fright at the sight of the Pokemon looking to be quite injured and incredibly in pain, as it is having trouble moving or even twitching a single part of his body…but what surprised Sneasel and even Des who came walking towards Sneasel, right before Robert could slide down and aid the little Pokemon…saw the male Pokemon with gritted teeth and one eye shut tightly, forcing himself to getting back onto his feet! "Eevee no stop it, it's over the fight is over I am not going to push you too fight!" exclaimed Robert as Eevee still refused of giving up and continues to trying his best on getting back onto his feet. But whenever he does and feeling his right front paw going inward from the incredible pain, causes the male Pokemon to fall back down into the sandy ground.

The others also rush on over towards the boy and Pokemon with Ash, who ran past by Sneasel and Des. Looked indifferent towards the man with a harden look "Just who is this guy!? What kind of strength was that let alone how ruthless that move Sneasel just did. Was he actually planning to harm Robert's Pokemon to being unable to battle for months!?" Ash thought to himself as he turned his head forward at Robert and Eevee, watching the older teen lifting the little energetic ball of fluff into his arms.

Twitching and yipping quietly in pain though still smiled up at Robert. As it watches Leaf huddling close to the two of them holding what looks to be a super potion. With Delia asking Robert and the girl if he will be fine and alright, with Robert who is lightly shifting the Pokemon around looking over his body doesn't see anything out of place "I think he will be alright nothing seems to badly hurt?" Robert stated as he then looks towards Ash who approached them as well Pikachu and Buneary. "Don't worry he is fine the little guy a lot tougher than he looks." Robert chuckled and then heard Eevee through tired eyes nodding too then hissing in pain from the super potion being sprayed on him.

Oak though not liking the idea of such rough battling style turn his head at Des, ready to scold him on behalf of Eevee only to be out spoken when Des spoke first. "Robert you trained Eevee…hell all your Pokemon well." Informed the man as he chuckles lightly from Sneasel who looked very apologetic, bashfully and tentatively approaches the two speaking in its Pokemon tongue towards the male Pokemon. Asking and hoping that he wasn't hurting to badly or is in great pain as the Sneasel then lets out a sigh of relief when Eevee replied with a happy chuckled shaking his head, letting her know that he is quite alright…pain yeah but he will live. Making the ice type to feel somewhat better but still being guilty of hurting him in such a way that she never realized how dangerous her fighting style is…

"If anything and the way you train them…is quite fine indeed." Des informed with a smirk "don't change the way you train your Pokemon alright. I wish you the best of luck", as he goes and turns around ready to take a step he lifted his hand with one finger raised "oh-oh right almost forgot, Eevee", he stated making the normal type to raise his ears upward with blinking eyes "don't worry I am sure Robert will soon realize what his original goal of his Pokemon journey is. You're a kind Pokemon to helping him along with Ivysaur and the other's, just make sure you four and whoever else comes with ya watch over him. And Ash", the man then turns his attention towards the boy who blinked his eyes.

"Don't you worry about a thing no doubt in the future all your Pokemon or those who you meet and join you. Will no doubt trust you, I'm sure Blaziken will know it soon just keep being persistent and no doubt that the Pokemon, no doubt see that your feelings and your friends are true and means no harm. Come on Sneasel we need to get back with the others, as well work on that sassy nature of yours." Des informed and heads on out leaving the group behind him and with his somewhat vague advice towards the two trainers who no doubt are going to compete in the Pokemon league.

Along with groaning lightly from hearing Sneasel bantering and chanting out things in her tongue, no doubt saying that no matter what he does or tries to change about her. She will not be losing that sassy personality about her, to even being sassy right now by stating it right now along with sticking her tongue out him or smugly smiling with her head held high only to deflate and deadpan at the man when he told her that she should not get a swelled head. Reminding her of how she hesitated on having Horsea fainting or even having a hard time with Eevee's raw speed! Which is another thing that somewhat surprised him was how fast Eevee was in that fight against Sneasel…never has he seen a normal type of that magnitude have such incredible raw speed but unable to controlling too use it for his advantage. The man lightly hums and rubs his chin wondering if even Robert knows about Eevee's raw speed…he saw how great his timing and directing Eevee, or his other Pokemon in battle but seems to tend to lose track or start falling behind in orders when the battle drags out.

It brought a smile to Des face "Hit and Run tactic indeed…I wonder whose battle style will win? A Hit and Run battler, or an all on attacker while making sure not to get hit battler? Things will definitely be interesting when he and Robert reaches the Pokemon league." Which will no doubt be a spectacular battle indeed if the two ever makes it in the league.

Near the routes exiting between Vermilion city Ash and his friends were now standing outside the outskirts of the city. With their Pokemon healed up and all rested at the Pokemon center, along with everyone being somewhat exhausted and tired from such an incredible event today. With Ash getting a new prototype device from both Oak and Professor Ivy, too stopping a fighting outbreak between Gardevoir and Blaziken while noticing the fire type while being blown away from Gardevoir psychic type, crying in pure sadness and anguish. To being protected from a mysterious trainer by the name of Des, whom Robert challenged and fought after they spotted him and his Pokemon training.

Though at the same time looking quite harsh and lethal to everyone, to Robert losing a 4 on 1 battle with the man's Sneasel! With Eevee and Horsea putting up better fight with the ice type, but were overpowered by the man's advance tactics and commands that caused horrible if not deadly strikes on Robert's Pokemon but turned out to be quite a nice guy near the end, despite his harsh ways of battling and commanding his Pokemon. He seemed like he enjoyed that fight greatly, along with even saying how Robert's training is great for his Pokemon and not to change it at all…though right before leaving he told Eevee and his Pokemon friends to keep watching over Robert that one day; he will find the true reasoning behind his Pokemon journey, they just need to make sure to watch over him and see that he does.

After everything said and done along with so many things happening, everyone said their goodbyes as well once again went their separate ways. With Robert stating how his next destination will be taking him near Rock tunnel, which heard some rumors about there being a Pokemon he could find and train along seeing for his Pokedex, not at all upset about his lost against Des. While Leaf happily exclaimed while waving some Tickets for the S.S Anne nearby at the Vermilion docks that are welcoming people to come aboard and take them on over towards a resort island.

With Oak and Delia saying to Ash how they will return to Pallet town with Oak stating how he hopes that Ash will used the device to its fullest, without abusing it or trying to override anything that has restrictions. Which he nodded and happily tells the Professor he wouldn't all the while hugging and saying goodbye to his mother, who hugged and rubbed his head then informing him if he continues along the road side of the beach: he will no doubt reach and arrive to his next gym battle in Saffron city. Thus everyone heads on out with each goals and destination set.

What kind of adventures await for our young hero in Saffron City.

"Oh SHOOT!? AFTER ALL THAT EXCITEMENT I FORGOTTEN TO TELL ASH ABOUT OUR HERITAGE!" Exclaimed Delia with a panic look on her face and then hanged her head down in embarrassment while feeling Oak, with sympathy rubs the mother's back telling her that she can always tell him, whenever he gives her a call or ever comes back to Pallet town as our Hero's journey continues!.

To be continued…
