35. Chapter 35

Author's disclaimer: I do not own Pokemon. Hey everyone sorry for the long wait, things had been quite busy lately and with summer finally over. I am able to get back to the groove of writing and updating my stories. Sadly I had no luck finding or making an eye appointment on the account of well...the pandemic still being around and such, so its a little difficult to see anything that has a bright white background or white layout that it becomes hard to read or see what I am doing.

Hopefully I can get a schedule in somewhere but for now, I have to push through. Another note to take, sure you guys seen my profile page but will say it here. Notifications are not working on the website, the website is not notifying me of any types of reviews, favorites, follows or private message. As I just now notice private messages and reviews just couple days ago. So that is why I haven't responded to anything.

Anyway, I had a lot of fun with this chapter and it is my very first time ever writing any type of dance sequences or scenes in any of my stories and spent a lot focusing on it to be sure that it would come out alright, the movements the position and the type of dance the characters will be doing. It also helped that I listened to Queen of Passion from Yakuza 0 to help me visualize the dance too lol.

Also I have concluded and ended another arc that was going to be part of the story, but considering situations and other things, I decided to finally write these two off from the story but still giving them a proper ending as I can finally go back to writing comfortably again without needing to be force a lot of dark themes or situations they will put Ash in. BUT! Despite not showing the battle with said two characters, it did help bring in another idea and prospect onto the table for me, that will benefit the story in the future. So yeah- sorry there won't be any climatic fights with these two but I had to write them off as...they were becoming and to be brutally honest, problematic for the vision I had in mind...so I am going be more mindful and think before accepting any type of well. OC's like these two in any of my story and not struggle coming up with chapter ideas and such, let alone plot.

Anyway without further adieu, hope you all have fun and enjoy the chapter. As I will work on Chapter 36 next where it will be Carla/Lucario focus chapter. Enjoy

Early in the morning, in a city called Rhythm Heaven, loud and boisterous music could be heard blasting down near the entrance of the town. Pokemon and humans alike were alerted, with the citizens who let out curious hums, stopped what they were doing. The people turned to where they heard the music was coming from and began squinting their eyes when they saw a figure in the distance.

"Oh yeah," came an energetic voice echoing throughout the town, keeping in tone and tempo with the music. "Yeah that's right, uh huh, keep the rhythm going." As the voice continued, the people managed to make out what looked like a huge afro that's two tones in color; red and white on each side. "Here I come, get ready, for I am about to hit the town with hot moves and beats~" Sang the voice out as two more people began walking and dancing alongside him.

Swinging and throwing their arms up and down, snapping their thumbs and fingers. Dancing to the obnoxiously loud music, doing some twirls and spins to even leaping into the air. All in sync with each other as they did a half-split when landing. They then quickly stood upright, turned their backs from the town and began moon walking backwards.

"Who are they?" One of the civilians asks, getting some of the others to shrug their shoulders and shake their heads. A few others were lightly puckering their lips and bobbing their heads to the beat of the music.

"I don't know, but that is some funky music they're blasting." Came one of the other peoples voices, as some of the Pokemon though were a bit annoyed and crying out how loud the music is, along with hurting their ears too. They glared in the direction of the moon walking men, who continued snapping their fingers and just dancing their way past the entrance of the city. Twirling around as they then threw their arms into the air!

Having multiple Pokeballs flying into the air and releasing their Pokemon out in the open, with four different Ludicolo -the grass/water type pokemon- coming out to dance in rhythm with their trainers. Rocking and rolling their flipper-like hands, doing quite big exaggerated moves to their dancing- while then few more Pokemon came out appearing before the trio of men, a Mime Jr, a small pink color creature with buttons on its stomach with a blue-puffy looking hair. Happily mimicking and moving in perfect harmony with its trainer.

The next one that came out was a Meditite- a Fighting/Psychic type Pokemon, with a small blue body frame and gray color waist area and head. Eye smiling and just doing its own dancing moves to the music and happily chanting out while levitating a few feet from the ground. It even did some flips within its dancing, while moving close to Mime jr and doing a cute duet with it.

The last Pokemon to come out was a Mienshao! A pure fighting type Pokemon from the Unova region. It's long and slender white fur body, swerved and wiggled left to right, throwing its arms up and down along its body- even hugging itself to do a very smooth and amazing wiggle like dance from head to toe- then quickly poses when the music will make a loud clap noise!

The people and Pokemon who were witnessing this and watching the show couldn't help but start getting into the groove these people and their Pokemon were giving. Finally able to detail out what they looked like, as the two men walking alongside the afro looking man- were wearing what seem to be open leather jackets, wearing ascots around their necks. Now moving their snapping fingers left to right in front of their bodies and pelvis, as their leader no doubt. Who is holding onto what looked to be a boombox on his left shoulder, were doing quite advanced and high level dancing moves.

Throwing the boombox up into the air for a brief moment as he spun in place, then caught it onto his other shoulder. Wearing what looked to be a bright purple jacklet that is unbuttoned around the torso area, revealing the yellow shirt collar from underneath. His sunglasses reflecting off from the sun as he poses dramatically, throwing his free arm into the air and extending his finger outward. With the Ludicolo's kneeling right behind him with wide eye smiles, waving their hands to present him to the people.

Even the two men did the same as they punched down the ground and resting their foreheads against their knees. Then quickly throw their heads back and follow up with throwing their arms forward as well to present their leader! The pokemon in front doing the same with posing and crossing their arms over their chests, having smirks on their faces as the afro hair man let out a calming breath while slowly moving his face forward and smirked as he announced.

"And here to take over this fine city with my beats, for Mirror B has arrived~" He announces and all three of them then grinned and widened their smiles with quite mischief looks. "And this town belongs to us!" He called out right as his music stopped playing on the boombox. The Orre region troublemakers dance group, led by Mirror B, had arrived!

Chapter 35: Pokemon show your dance moves!

Xxx

On this fine cool morning, Ash Ketchum was finishing up cleaning his camping equipment. Taking a small relaxing break from his travels with his Pokemon, the young raven-haired trainer is furling up his tent while letting his Pokemon roam free from their Pokeball, to enjoy the crisp morning air. After rolling up the tent, he went ahead and walked over towards the table he set up to eat breakfast on. "Pikachu, Lilligant, think you can help me with the dishes?" The boy called out towards the two Pokemon.

When he saw them, he chuckled at how Lilligant is playing with Pikachu and Buneary, though she began teetering after a few minutes of spinning in place. She quickly shook her head and blinked her orange eyes towards the trainer. The grass type happily eyes smiled and saluted to Ash, then let out a squeak when she went to take a step. Only for her foot to get caught onto her grassy skirt and fall forward! Liligant hit the ground hard and whined out in slight pain from the impact. Pikachu and Buneary approach her and help the klutzy Pokemon back to her feet.

Then the two laughed when the sheepish and bashful grass type thanked them. She told Pikachu to go ahead as she starts adjusting and fixing her grassy skirt, so this way she won't fall or trip over them. The two small Pokemon nodded and ran on over towards Ash, who saw what happened and couldn't help but shake his head. He grinned at Pikachu and Buneary, who hopped onto the table top and approached the plates. Meanwhile Lilligant, who got done adjusting her skirt and then quickly tugged against her pancho around her impressive mounds, happily giggled and began bouncing her way over to the table and helped out with the cleaning.

Blaziken, who was watching everything take place, let out a curious hum and tilt her head. Rubbing her chin slightly as she didn't notice that Lilligant was wearing clothes, similar to Gardevoir. It definitely surprised the starter Pokemon as she then turned to check out the other Pokemon who were here with them. Nidoqueen wasn't with them right now, but she did recall how the Poison/Ground type were basically wearing breastplates that barely kept her large melons within their cups. She spotted Lopunny near a tree acting a little oddly, as her brown fur face kept turning red whenever she seemed to look in Ash's directions, before grabbing her ears and covering her face, whipping behind the tree and letting out giggling fits. The fighting type Pokemon rolled her eyes and let out a happy sigh, silently telling herself how another Pokemon in the group seemed to have fallen for Ash's charms.

She then turned towards Ninty the Ninetales, who was relaxing and curled up next to Ash's backpack. She was wagging her tails playfully around their playful Mawile, their newest member on the team and quite the curious Pokemon too. Blaziken couldn't help but laugh a bit at how calm Ninty was with the girl, especially when Mawile happily coos and wraps one of the tails around her body and snuggles into it. Blaziken then turned towards the lakeside, seeing Greninja was happily floating in the water with her head poking out of the surface. The ninja frog pokemon had a content looking expression and a smile on her face, even blowing bubbles once in a while on the water surface. The fire type diverted her attention away for a brief moment, when she spotted Lucario happily returning with some wood and sticks; seeming to have tied them up into a pile too. The jackal pokemon happily yipped out and wagged her tail rapidly when she called out to their trainer.

Said trainer lifted his head and greeted Lucario and welcomed her back from collecting woods. Blaziken smiled and then turned her attention to the last companion, Gardevoir. The Psychic/Fairy type Pokemon who had gone the extra mile and reached out to her. Freeing Blaziken from her inner darkness that she's been in for who knows how long. She saw the female Pokemon looking herself over at the lake, staring at her reflection as she moved and softly touching her hands over to her eyes. She stretched her eyelids slightly, looking over her eyes that were originally red, but were now the color blue. A mutation that happened during their fight a couple nights ago... If Blaziken were to be honest, she has to admit the girl looked beautiful with blue eyes. That wasn't to say that her red eyes weren't pretty either, but the new color makes her stand out more from the other Gardevoir.

Blaziken couldn't help but snicker and grinned at how the female Pokemon was still tugging and grabbing her dress constantly. Letting out whines and frustrated coos, she mumbled out how tight the dress feels. Blaziken, who closed her eyes and shrugged her arms outward, began walking over to the girl to see what's the matter- as well probably have some fun with her too. The fire/fighting type felt a bit of a happy sensation coursing throughout her body, enjoying it greatly and is happily accepting it- she has so much to thank the Psychic type Pokemon for everything. She needs to repay her in some way, but how is the question? Then again, considering how giddy and happy Gardevoir is of becoming her best friend and battle partner, then that'll be her way to repay her.

Gardevoir growled lightly after finally getting her dress fitted in a way it wouldn't be pushing or pressing heavily against her breasts. She placed one hand against her shapely hips, cocking it outward and putting her weight on her right leg. She stared down at her reflection in the lake, with Greninja a couple inches to the right of the reflection. The water pokemon curiously blinked her eyes at the busty Pokemon and croaked out, asking why she seemed frustrated. The reflected Gardevoir shifted her blue eyes to the Pokemon and let out a low breath of air. Informing Greninja that her dress has lately been feeling too tight on her- pressing hard against her chest that it is becoming a bit hard to breathe. The frog Pokemon let out an accepting croak from her throat and looked the Pokemon over.

"Greninja, nin." Greninja chattered out, remarkling how it does look tight on the psychic/fairy type Pokemon. Even lifting a finger through the lake surface and pointing to the girl's breasts. "Gre, nin, ninja." She mentioned how even her nipples were poking through or against the green part of her dress. Gardevoir squeaked and blushed red as she quickly slapped her hands over her breasts, covering her chest. She quickly sighed in depression, hanging her head low and then lazily swung her arms down against her sides.

"Voir…" She whined out and closed her eyes, ready to sit down and admit defeat. Ever since training and gaining experience, her assets have been growing a lot lately and becoming quite womanly. Now with the Pokeblocks evening out her… well everyone's figure, her supple E cups have now grown into healthy and fully rounded bouncy G cups; which was proven to be too much for Gardevoir's dress. Even a slightest movement would cause them to tear and rip. Her stomach being nice, slim and toned, smooth feeling skin that curves inward against her waistline, then curving outwards to her shoulder length hips. Having a very graceful presence as her thighs were thick and absorbent to the touch with her rear moderate in size but super plump and soft.

There was definitely beauty within Gardevoir's body, which even she couldn't help but blush happily about. Considering her experience was being shown physically, despite help from the Pokeblocks, her figure is almost the same as Blaziken. Gardevoir is nearly catching up to Blaziken's level of experience. "Voir…" she growled though when she felt the dress tightening again and tried stretching it out, or purposely had the dress be stretched out as she moved her hands over the collar of the green part of her dress. She pulled it forward and hoped it would stretch it out, but it showed mountains of cleavage within the dress. "GAR!" The green haired pokemon then yelled in frustration and stomped her foot, pouting at her reflection; indirectly scaring Greninja slightly as she croaked nervously at the female Pokemon.

"Blaziken, ken." Thankfully Greninja was saved by Blaziken speaking up and calling towards the Gardevoir. She asked her whershe didn't just take the dress off! Gardevoir blinked her blue eyes and turned her attention to the female Pokemon, then smiled brightly with a happy blush on her face. Watching the fire/fighting type walking on over and waving towards her, the psychic Pokemon felt giddy. But then she widened her eyes at what Blaziken had just said and glared. Her actions caused the taller female pokemon to giggle, making Gardevoir close her eyes and huffed in annoyance.

"Voir, Gardevoir," Gardevoir cooed annoyingly, remarking how Blaziken's joke isn't funny anymore and rolled her neck to look at the girl while crossing her arms. "Gardevoir, voir!" She continued saying how this joke had gone long enough only to falter her expression and began hanging her arms down to her stomach, then waved them against her sides when Blaziken stopped a couple inches in front of the Gardevoir. Cocking her impressive waist to the right and placing her hands against her hip.

"Blaze, Blaziken." The fire/fighting type chirpp out, asking how she knows if she was joking or not? The fairy type was left staring in confusion for a while. "Blaze, ken, ken." Blaziken continued speaking, as she raised her hand and began pointing and jabbing in the air at Gardevoir's dress. Stating how Gardevoir could easily just take the dress off and go nude instead of wasting time trying to adjust or fiddle with it. As Gardevoir's eyes bulged out and her white face began to turn red, she began screaming and scolding at Blaziken who shielded herself with her own fits of laughter.

"GARDEVOIR! Voir, voir!" The psychic Pokemon screamed at her friend, scolding how she will never undress or go nude in a public or open place while being indecent in front of others and people. She shook her arms and gritted her teeth, as her face turned even more red when Blaziken lifted a hand, wiggling a finger against her ear and chirped at the fuming Pokemon. Gardevoir felt steam coming out from her own ears, only to shrink her pupils when Blaziken retorted how there's nobody around, only Ash and their companions, then shook her head.

"Blaziken, blaze." Blaziken chirps out how she has nothing to hide, considering she and Ash had been making love with one another. The boy already saw what she looked like under the dress multiple times on their journey. Blaziken quickly raised her hand and began laughing more when Gardevoir let out a shriek and began slapping weakly at the blunt friend of her, rapidly telling her to shut up or how that's very indecent behavior coming out from her. "Blaziken, ken!" the fire type retorted how it's true, while then quickly stating that everyone else here, besides her and Lilligant, are basically nude and naked around the boy.

Fuming, Gardevoir leered up at the busty Pokemon and then quickly turned her back on her and let out a humph, then stuck her tongue out at Blaziken. The fire/fighting type blushed and snicker at how adorable Gardevoir's being, never seeing quite an expressive Pokemon like her before. Blaziken wondered if it's because of Ash allowing them to express themselves more than other trainers? She quickly looked up in thought and recalled how Ash and his other friends, out of everyone she met during her travels, are the only ones who seemed to let their Pokemon out of their Pokeballs whenever taking breaks. He allowed his Pokemon to be open and expressive, unlike most trainers who have them kept inside their Pokeball.

Blaziken quickly shook her thoughts away from that and faced Gardevoir, who raised her head in defiance. Stating how the others may be comfortable being naked around the boy, but only because they have fur to hide their private parts away from their man. Greninja let out a couple of confused croaks, having no idea what they're talking about and even looked to Ash from the lake. "Greninja?" the frog openly said as she began imagining the others walking nude around their trainer. Ash was a poorly animated chibi and she just had question marks above their heads.

Blaziken sighed while eyeing Greninja in the lake, then smiled at the naive ninja Pokemon. It seems the girl doesn't know about Ash's gift, or hasn't learned about it yet from the others. Blaziken then stared at Gardevoir's reflection, having another tinge of pink on her cheeks. A playful look of mirth was then plastered onto her face, as she turned her attention towards the psychic type and began slowly sneaking up to her.

The fire type Pokemon made sure her steps were silent as possible as she approached Gardevoir. The latter continued to not pay her any attention and looked down to her chest, sighing irritably as the female Pokemon continued to fiddle with her dress once more, in order to not have it choke her. Unaware of the approaching Pokemon behind her, Blaziken stuck her tongue out and raised her arms forward slightly from her torso, and then struck!

Gardevoir let out a very loud shirke of surprise, squealing loudly as she felt Blaziken hooking her arms underneath her armpits and locked her in place. Followed by slapping both her hands onto her G cup bosoms, feeling the fire type's talon like hands sinking into her massive orbs. The female psychic type let out a somewhat loud moan before quickly shutting her mouth and whipping her hands up to Blaziken's own hands.

"GARDEVOIR!" she yelled out as she thrashed and wiggled within Blaziken's tight grip, feeling the fire type's own G cups pushing against her back. The avian pokemon's breasts were flattened and rubbing sensually against the psychic pokemon's spine, while feeling Blaziken's breath hitting against her neck. Her blue eyes were wide and shaking at what the female was suddenly doing to her. "Voir, Voir!" she continued scolding and screaming at the Pokemon, throwing their weight around, leaning forward and then back against Blaziken's body that had her legs kicking into the air, before landing back down onto the grassy ground.

Blaziken just giggled as she was moving and groping the Pokemon's body, hooking and slipping her thumbs into Gardevoir's dress. She surprisingly enjoyed the way her feathers were rubbing and caressing against Gardevoir's upper back, as well as her bosoms meshing heavily against the girl's bare-back. She continued giggling at how much Gardevoir was trying to break free from her hold, but failing miserably. "Blaziken, blaze-" cooed the playful pokemon as she began digging her hands more onto Gardevoir's melons. She was enjoying the different level of squeaks the psychic type was letting out, even feeling the girl absently rubbing and slightly grinding her rear up against Blaziken pelvis.

The psychic Pokemon's breasts were even sinking and squeezing between Blaziken's fingers. The latter watched the way Gardevoir's nipples were becoming erect and hard as she bucked forward and back against Blaziken, hoping to buck her off while throwing herself left to right… But all it seemed to be doing was tearing and ripping the dress somewhat.

Greninja, who's currently motionless, watched them as she was unable to figure out how to act or behave with this situation. On one hand, she considered Gardevoir to be in distress… but she also seemed to enjoy it too with how her face seems to be slightly pink from embarrassment... but also happy that Blaziken is behaving like this?

Granted, Greninja learned about Blaziken and her behavior from the other female Pokemon and Pikachu a while ago. The ninja Pokemon felt a lot of remorse for the fire/fighting type… but after seeing her happy and free from whatever shackles were keeping her in her inner turmoil, she couldn't be happier. But she also wished to stop her from doing whatever it is she's doing? It didn't help that Gardevoir was sending out mixed signals, asking for assistance but also not wanting assistance? It was very confusing to her.

The squeals and squeaks also attracted the others' attention, even Ash had to look up from his backpack at the two Pokemon. The boy was ready to scold them, but quickly stopped himself from doing so, especially seeing the jubilant, happy expression on Blaziken's face. He never thought he'd ever see that in his life, especially when messing around and having fun with Gardevoir. The young trainer laughed at how much Blaziken had changed from her encounter with Gardevoir. Yes, Ash finally learned why gardevoir was exhausted a couple days back, and got the explanation from the Psychic Pokemon. She informed him how she wanted to get Blaziken out of the darkness and leave it at that, while also pinning him to the bed that night stating how she will reward him for her hard work, and to be ready to see a brand new Blaziken.

Seeing it in person, as well as the happy expression on the Pokemon face -if it were anything to go by- Gardevoir indeed helped free Blaziken from whatever darkness she was in. "I don't know who or where her trainer is… but if I ever see his face, I am going to give him a piece of my mind and tell him what he did to Blaziken was wrong! Even if it means giving up being a trainer, nobody -not even Pokemon- deserves whatever treatment he gave her." Ash said to himself, even seeing Pikachu nodding his head as if he picked up what his trainer was feeling, letting out a couple sparks of electricity from his cheeks in agreement. The electric mouse let out a low "chuu" when Ash chuckled and patted his partner's head.

They then whip their attention back to the struggling duo, watching Blaziken now lifting Gardevoir into the air! They witnessed the girl fruitlessly kicking her legs in all directions, having her dress show off and reveal her toned legs and pelvis area. Meanwhile, Blaziken began moving her hands away from the Girl's bouncy G cups and started sliding her hands over to the dress' shoulder straps. She hooked her hands into them and was ready to take off the dress completely. The avian even teasingly slid and massaged her thumbs against the upper back of Gardevoir's spine, sending pleasure throughout the psychic/fairy Pokemon body, as well as making her shiver with a shaky moan.

"VOIR!" Finally though, Gardevoir had enough and she blasted Blaziken off from her dress straps, throwing the girl down to her back. However, this inadvertently had Gardevoir squeak out as she spun around and fell right on top of Blaziken. This caused them both to grunt out when their foreheads hit each other, forcing the two to close both their eyes and groan out in pain. Despite Gardevoir escaping Blaziken's grip, the latter's actions bore fruit.

Gardevoir's dress was halfway down from her body, with the shoulder straps hanging off from her forearms and exposing her entire upper body and revealing her breasts. Thankfully, they were being hidden by pressing and pushing down against Blaziken's own, but it was still showing off the top of Gardevoir's boobs and mount of cleavage. Along with being trapped and pressed against Blaziken's own feathery bosoms, as the two Pokemon's breasts were greedily melding against one another, daring to let their nipples be exposed. This ended up happening when Gardevoir leaned away from Blaziken, using her hands to push herself up and rested one hand against her forehead.

She then opened her blue eyes, glaring down at the giddy fire/fighting type who started back up at her with a smirk. The two then turned their heads towards Ash's direction, after Ash figured their roughhousing was finished and spoke up. "Alright you two, are you done messing with each other?" The raven-haired trainer chuckled, then snickered when Gardevoir gave him quite the stink eye and even baring her teeth at him. This just earned more laughter from her lover, who was amazed at how expressive Gardevoir seems to be today. "Alright, alright, Blaziken-'' he corrected himself while raising his hands into the air in surrender, getting the fire/fighting type chirping in laughter. "Are YOU done roughhousing with Gardevoir?" He asked and placed his hands against his sides, watching the fire Pokemon just shrug her shoulders, chirping out that she is... but she still wants to take the psychic's dress off.

She ended up yelping when she tried to grab Gardevoir's straps again, only to get smacked by the female Pokemon, who was definitely showing her teeth now at the female Pokemon while having quite the red face. "Okay… why are you trying to get Gardevoir's dress off, Blaziken?" Ash asked while tilting his head. "I don't think she likes the idea of going without it on?" He then chuckled when Gardevoir raised herself up from Blaziken and gestured her left arm towards the body, as if to say how Ash even knows she doesn't like to be naked! This had Ash looking over his Pokemon, noting that other than Gardevoir, Lilligant is the only other Pokemon here who seems to be in what appears to be clothing. The rest either have fur covering their assets, or just bare skin with Greninja, yet it doesn't look like the girl was exposing anything. He couldn't help but laugh at Greninja, who finally got out of the lake waters, looking so confused from everything that happened.

While the others gathered around, Blaziken just shrugged once more and faced Gardevoir with playful mirth and spoke once more. "Blaziken- Ken, blaze." Saying again how Gardevoir has no reason to be embarrassed about being naked around them or Ash. This got the Pokemon on top of her to give her a deadpan expression on her face. Her face then turned dark red, while growling out in annoyance, when a boastful Lopunny proudly hopped her way over and posed sexually towards the female Pokemon.

"Lop! Op, punny!" Chanting out how there's nothing wrong or to be embarrassed about showing your womanly parts to the world. "Lopunny!" She added how Gardevoir should take pride in strutting what she has going, only to yelp and feel a kick to the back of her neck. Courtesy of her younger sister Buneary, who had quite the red face had leapt into the air to reprimand her sister.

Her drop kick sent her taller sister flying across the fields and right into the lake waters, creating a loud splash. Everyone there could only wince slightly, as well as be somewhat amazed at the small rabbit's strength. Lucario, who was standing next to Lilligant, Ninety and Mawile, turned her attention towards the three when Mawile looked up to her and pointed at the jackal.

"Mawile?" She asked out of curiosity if Carla the Lucario was wearing any type of clothing? The female jackal hums and looks down at herself in thought. Wagging her tail curiously, even cooing out how she honestly doesn't know. She never really checked or even bothered considering she was just in fur like the rest. But then, she proudly smiles at Mawile and places her hands against the side of her hips. Lilligant blinked when she saw Luacrio's hands sliding down against the baggy like fur, seeing what seems to be fur underneath it?

"Gant?" The grass type then points to Carla's legs, alerting Ash to the trio. "Lilligant, gant." She continued telling Carla that maybe she does have clothes and points to her leg. Lucario then looks down and raises her hands a few inches away from her legs and lets out a hum. This alerted everyone, including Blaziken and Gardevoir, as they watched Carla tilting her upper body to the right and then placing her hands onto the sides of her hips, feeling what felt like...a hem? Noticing it, she grabs said hems and widens her eyes when she feels her fur going down?!

The entire group stared with widened eyes and nearly gasped at the sight of Lucario stripping out what seems to be shorts!? At last, the rest of her body had been revealed, as she got each leg out of the pant legs, showing off her real figure to the world. Her real legs and thighs were shown to have the rest of the tan fur on her stomach reaching all the way down between her legs, where the black part of her fur formed over her thighs. It looked to be going to her inner thighs, her rear and lower back. The rest of her legs had blue fur, stopping right above the shins where the rest of it and down to her feet were still black.

"WHOA, WHOA, WHOA!?" Ash shouted and nearly tripped over his feet as Carla began moving and swinging her blue shorts around. "Carla, you're wearing clothes too?!" Ash shouted and saw the Jackal looking at him with a curious expression, then folded her ears back as she stared down at the blue baggy shorts. Lucario began laughing bashfully, rubbing the back of her head and mumbling out how she guessed she was. This had everyone there stare in confusion, even more so with Ash who closed his eyes and felt his eyebrows twitching. He then turned to the rest of the girls and threw out his arms "Does anyone else want to share with me that they're wearing clothes that I don't know of!?" He screamed in quite a silly fashion, watching everyone there to hum and then looking themselves over. Lilligant's eye smiled and was ready to raise her hand, only for Ash to quickly say, "Put your hand down Lilligant." He already knew about her, so he stopped her with a knowing tone, making the girl giggle softly and rest her hand back to her side.

Lopunny growled after she crawled back out from the lake waters, marching her way over to Buneary. She grabbed her sister by the tuff of her neck, as the bunny began flailing and apologizing profusely towards her. Instead of letting her go, Lopunny quickly spun around and threw the girl into the lake waters as she screamed! stomping her foot, the older sister shouted in her specie's tongue, "THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR KICKING ME!" After that, she huffed and turned to face the group. Annoyed and frustrated, she began wringing out her ears to drain the water out, unaware that her nipples on her supple bosoms, as well as her private parts, were exposed to the world, due to her fur being wet and sticking against them. Seeing this, Ash sighs with a red face and turns around to give Lopunny some privacy.

Meanwhile, he heard the rest of his Pokemon chattering out how they don't have clothes. Blaziken and Gardevoir, who were still in the position they were in, looked at one another for a bit. Just then, Gardevoir's face turned red when Blaziken snickered out and whispered, "Feeling comfortable pinning me, or are you waiting for me to make a move on you?" The fire type then laughed when the psychic female turned purple, while quickly hopping up and away from the brazen fire type, as she quickly went and began adjusting her dress again from the tussle and wrestling match she had with Blaziken.

The fire type Pokemon laughed some more and began standing back up, shaking her head as she enjoyed that very much, even feeling a bit lonely without Gardevoir's touch. But then turn her attention to their equally bashful trainer who walked over to his bag and spoke out. "Alright, alright. Since everyone is done having fun, we should get going and reach the next town." He informed them, as he stood back up and swung his bag over his arms and placed it against his back. He then faced the group with a smile, raising the portable PC-transceiver that Oak gave him back at Vermilion city.

"Alright, Mawile, Greninja, do you want to head back to the lab?" He asked the two in which they nodded with smiles, figuring to head back and rest up. Especially since they gained some experience during their travels against wild Pokemon. They were starting to feel exhausted and they weren't sure how long it would be until they reached the next city. Seeing them nod their heads yes, Ash went ahead and grabbed their Pokeballs from his belt, recalled them back and then placed the two pokeballs onto the device, watching it send them back to Oak's lab. With that matter settled, Ash and his team march onward to continue their journey, not knowing what awaited them at their destination.

It only took a couple of minutes after leaving their campsite to reach the nearby city. However, it was a strange sight to see when they arrived, leaving Ash and his pokemon somewhat puzzled, not entirely sure of what to make of the sight they were seeing? Buneary tilted her head and raised her right paw to her mouth, hearing her trainer then saying, "Okay, I know it's called Rhythm Heaven, but isn't this taking things too literally?" The trainer's Pokemon gave questionable nods in agreement, watching everyone at the front entrance dancing and swaying their bodies to what appears to be some very loud and obnoxious music blasting throughout the town.

Even the dance moves they were doing looked pretty outdated, making Ash cross his arms and cock his head slightly. "I thought Disco died? Why is everyone dancing as if Disco had made a comeback?" Pikachu just shook his head, having no idea what Disco is in the first place, let alone what dancing is. Gardevoir pursed her lips to the side, as she began wandering her blue eyes around the city. She saw it wasn't just Pokemon and people in the streets dancing… but also those inside buildings. The Psychic type became a little worried, wondering if there's more going on than the naked eye can see?

Buneary however, young as she is, found all the dancing pretty amusing as she was hopping lightly against her heels, and smiling at the silly dance moves everyone's doing out on the streets. The little girl wanted to dance as well, as she went ahead and began twirling in place and swaying her body about, having Ash laugh. "Heh, it does want to make you dance too, huh?" Ash said openly as he looked back at the townsfolk again, even turning his attention towards the Pokemon who were dancing too. However, his eyes squinted in concentration when he took notice of how slightly miserable the Pokemon looked. they seemed to either be struggling with their dance, or trying to force themselves not to dance?

This also caught Blaziken and Gardevoir's attention. They too saw the Pokemon in the city were seemingly in agony, while trying to resist whatever it is that has a very strong hold on them. They even appeared to be throwing their weight in directions that just caused them more pain. "Voir…" The Psychic/Fairy type mewed out softly as she then turned her blue eyes up at Blaziken, who'd rested her left hand against her right elbow while stroking her chin in thought, trying to piece together what's happening. Though their answers were closer than they think, as all of them blinked their eyes when they heard what sounded like an intercom going off. Alerted, the group turned towards where the sound came from, leading to one of the power lines, where loudspeakers and even radio style speakers were hung up.

"Yo, yo, yo check it out people and Pokemon of Rhythm Heaven! This is your DJ host and amazing king of dance, Mirror B coming to you live for your hourly update!" A loud voice boomed over the speakers, causing Ash and his Pokemon to stare confusingly at them, while whispering out the name. Though Blaziken and Gardevoir couldn't help but snort at how ridiculous the name sounded. "This fine hour we will be playing my own impressive beats and theme for you all! I want you all to shake what yer mamma gave you and have your Pokemon dancing to the beats. If they are exhausted then send them over to our Dancing care center where my boy's and staff will happily heal them up, so they can continue dancing the day away! And if they can't dance, have no fear!"

"Who is this weirdo?" Ash remarked while lifting his hat up and scratching the side of his hair. "Why's he the one telling people what to do and forcing the Pokemon to dance, when they're clearly feeling hurt?" The teenager ranted as he turned his attention and his Pokemon - as well to the city. one thing's for sure, no one will catch me dancing like a weirdo… no offense to those guys." Ash quickly corrected.

"None taken!" A person nearby replied quick and giddy, making Ash laugh nervously a bit. The person continued on their merry way again, though looked extremely tired themselves. Having Blaziken to chirp lightly and face back to the speakers. "If none of you cats know how to dance, then I'll gladly have Mime JR use its telekinetic powers to help you dance with it! So in one minute, prepare to be amazed and dazzled by the dancing! Get ready to shake your groove!" The man's voice ended there and went quiet, as the music returned playing through the speakers.

"Mime jr?" Ash hummed out and reached for his Pokedex and opened it up, but paused. He recalled how when he tried to get data from Janines's Salazzle during his gym battle. His Pokedex couldn't find any registration files on it. The girl had stated how he should probably get his Pokedex updated as well. "Hm... well, I hope the pokedex has something on Mime Jr. if not, I definitely need to get to a center and ask Oak to update it." The trainer stated, having his Pokemon gather around him, with Buneary hopping up onto his shoulder and blushing towards Pikachu, who smiled back and looked at the dex.

"Searching...Searching...Data found."

"Alright! Hopefully it can tell us what the Pokemon is?" Ash said with excitement, glad to know the Pokedex has something on the Pokemon that was just mentioned.

"Mime Jr: the Mimikry Pokemon. The pre-evolution of Mr Mme. When this gifted mimic surprises it's opponents. Mime Jr becomes so happy it forgets it's imitating something"

"Wait, if it mimics people, then how does Mirror B get it to make people and Pokemon dance?" Ash questioned while lifting his head away from the Pokedex and turned to the two female Pokemon. Both looked back and shrugged with equal confused expressions and lost looks. They weren't sure how Mirror B could even get the Pokemon to have others, imitating the little Pokemon. Though that thought wouldn't last too long, as a large plasma screen TV, which was in the city square and hanging from the biggest building, showed static and fuzz while some fanfare was being played. The People and Pokemon of the city all groaned in detest and exhaustion, while Ash and his crew were curious of what was happening.

It didn't take long before the screen started flickering and receiving a signal. It went through some prompt cards with words and some cute like drawings of Mime Jr drawn on a brown looking cardboard box. "Jr, Mime-Mime, Mime Jr!" A Pokemon's voice echoing out from the screen. It's hands happily moving and presenting the title on the cute drawing that reads out "Mime Jr Dancing hour." To which Mime Jr's hand pulled the cardboard away and showed another one, holding it in the center and having its arms thrown into the air, as the cute Pokemon continued chanting it's name. "Mi, mi, Mime JR!" it cried out with glee and excitement as if to say with your host, Mime Jr!

Blaziken deadpanned at how dumb this was... but couldn't help blushing for how cute the little Pokemon was being. The little one threw the cardboard away and began twirling and swaying away from the camera, posing in front of its audience, then bowing down to the right and then to the left. Mime Jr had put on such an act for everyone, even Gardevoir was giggling at the cute little Pokemon's antics. Once the Pokemon was done bowing, it opened its black and white eyes to its audience, then proudly and happily tapped its chest. "Mime Jr, Mi, mi, mime!" it chanted out, which was lost in translation for Ash, as he wasn't sure what the Pokemon was saying.

However, Pikachu, Blaziken and Gardevoir were on edge when they heard the Pokemon saying that it will be presenting everyone with a new dance. Along with announcing to its audience to be ready and follow what it does! Once the music began playing, having an upbeat and slightly fast tempo to it, the group looked at the loudspeakers and then towards each other. They then faced the TV screen as Mime Jr happily let out a happy cheery tone, then clapped its hands.

Huge amounts of psychic energy were sent throughout the town, connecting to Pokemon and People alike, even landing on Ash and his Pokemon. "Whoa, what the?!" Ash exclaimed with the Pokemon, feeling their limbs being forced to move on their own and matching the pose Mime jr is having. Gardevoir growled in protest as she felt the energy coursing through her body. The girl was trying to resist moving her limbs to pose, feeling them start moving and beginning to weave with struggling movements as Mime Jr began to start a dance. However, Gardevoior managed to sense the strength of the psychic energy and widened her eyes open and had them glowing blue!

She not only washed away the manipulative energy out of her system, but also Ash and the other Pokemon too. Ash, Pikachu, Buneary and Blaziken blinked their eyes and let out low breathes of air, with the boy smiling towards the psychic pokemon. "Thanks Gardevoir, I don't know what happened, but you saved us from… whatever the Pokemon wants us to do?" Ash stated and turned to the screen, only to nearly snicker at the dance it was doing. It was actually kind of cute and endearing, as the small Pokemon did what looked to be the traditional Alola hula dance. It happily waved and moved its arms and hands up and down, going side to side whenever switching positions to then raising one arm into the air and began spinning in place.

"Well, I suppose it isn't that bad of a... dance." Ash began saying while laughing softly and then facing forward. Only to feel himself going silent when he got a good look at the citizens and other Pokemon within the town who seemingly got caught within the psychic energy and began doing what Mime jr was doing. All of them were doing this against their will. "Then again… maybe not." Ash took back his previous statement and stared at those who were getting affected. There were workers who were just minding their own business, carrying what seemed to be important cargo and groceries. Only for them to be dropped onto the ground and smashing everywhere, causing the people to let out growls of frustration as they were forced to start copying and moving with Mime Jr's movements.

Ash then turned towards some of the children who were out with their Pokemon, who at first seemed to enjoy the dancing. But apparently, before he arrived here, it started getting on their nerves, which made them cry out they needed to get home or were thirsty and such. But they were preventing them from doing what they wanted to do, even as they cried out that their Pokemon were tired too and they needed to get them healed up. This had Ash whipping his attention back to the TV screen and glare lightly, but he wasn't blaming the Pokemon. Obviously, it was no doubt enjoying itself, but it doesn't seem to have any ill intent either.

Blaziken hummed and began looking around, figuring out if the trainer was nearby or not. All the while hoping to pick up any clues from the people who might know who's doing this. "Blaziken, ken." She chirped towards a nearby person: a slightly fit, skinny man who was being forced to dance and move like the Pokemon on screen. He turned his head at the Pokemon and watched the Fire type approach him. This in turn had Ash and the others facing in Blaziken's direction, wondering if the person knows who is forcing people to dance? "Ken, Blaze?" The avian Pokemon asked while then pointing to the screen.

"Are you asking where that Pokemon is?" The man asked the female Pokemon, who nodded her head. He started moving away when Mime jr began changing the dance moves and had people and Pokemon unwillingly start kicking and throwing their legs into the air. "Well, these strange people had entered the city earlier this morning, playing a very loud and upbeat type of music." He began saying and watched the others, who were probably with the Blaziken, as well seeing a Gardevoir among their group. He had to guess is able to protect her trainer and friends from being manipulative psychic waves. "They aren't a big group, but their Pokemon are certainly strong though. Some of the officials we have in town couldn't even beat them, especially with their odd way of wanting a Pokemon battle." The man continued, who was now being forced to do a shimmy dance with his hands.

"A certain Pokemon battle?" Ash repeated as the man nodded, doing his best to move his fingers to point in the direction they were at.

"Yeah, they call it a dance battle. It's when trainers have their Pokemon try to out dance their own Pokemon, while even battling it. Whoever has the best dance moves are able to get free hits. Those are the rules." The man groaned out when his back was starting to give out on him. "However, since none of us really have our Pokemon dance, we don't force our Pokemon to do it." He then let out a grunt when he began rotating and moving his hips in circular motions, earning some snorts and snickers from the Pokemon. "Yeah-yeah, let it out of your system." Despite the snark, he couldn't help but laugh at himself. "Actually, this is quite therapeutic in a way." As it was actually helping with his back pain.

Ash hummed and thought it over. He never heard of dancing being used as a form of battle before? But he will worry about it later, he needs to figure out and learn where this group is at. "Anyway, if you're curious where they're at, just go down past Hoop district and about nine blocks down, there's a large TV studio that's in the center, so you can't miss it." He informed and nudged his head in the directions, watching Ash and his Pokemon turn their focus in the direction and then turn back to face the man. "The guy you're looking for is wearing a Pokeball style large Afro. You'll see it for yourself soon enough!" He informed the group.

"Okay thanks, we will definitely stop them and save this town." Ash exclaimed and then turned to the Pokemon. "Come on, let's go and see if we can stop those guys from forcing both people and Pokemon from dancing themselves to exhaustion!" He told his Pokemon, who all nodded in agreement and began following right behind Ash as they darted off.

"Be careful! Their Pokemon are really strong and can easily wipe you out if you're not cautious!" The man shouted and then sweat dropped. "I just let a kid know where these people are, without telling him to get back up… What can a single boy and his Pokemon do to save an entire town?" He groaned and shook his head, "I really hope this doesn't bite me in the butt later?"

"Mime, Mime jr, mi!" The Mime Jr said towards a camera and gave a bow to the viewers and watchers who were tuned in on the station. He began waving towards the endearing fans that were watching and then smiled upwards when he heard the door of the studio opening up. It was a person clapping their hands, who just so happened to be its Pokemon trainer.

"Marvelous work Mime Jr, amazing job as always!" Chortled the tall man as his afro bounced after squeezing through the doorway and popped. "I believe you even got more fans and audience to tune in more than earlier this morning." The man laughed as he walked on in and knelt down to start petting Mime jr on the head. The Pokemon giggled out and happily wiggled in place. "No doubt your cuteness is winning their hearts and your dance moves are bringing them together." The man then happily moved his arms away and threw them outward. "Not to mention the free lessons you're giving them with these dance moves too, it's just marvelous my little guy." He told the Pokemon, who happily placed its hands onto its face cheeks and gave a bashful giggle.

"Mirror B, Mirror B!" voices called out in the distance of the recording studio and broadcast room. The tall man sighs in annoyance as he hears his teammates rushing their way down the halls in a hurry, shouting out his name. "Mirror B, Mirror B we have a problem!" Two men cried out as they were crushed between the doorway. They thrashed their limbs about as they both entered the room at the same time, getting themselves stuck between the door in the process. Mirror B, who got up from his kneeling and turned towards the goons, wore an unimpressed look on his face at this. Including Mime Jr, who was mimicking its trainer expression, while laughing at the goons. Eventually, they broke free and fell onto the floor, with Mime Jr playfully copying them as they then saluted when they recovered and stood up saluting to their leader.

The afro wearing man stared dubiously at his crew and shook his head with a sigh, slowly placing a hand on his forehead, which Mime Jr copied. "Alright you two, what seems to be the problem? You two are more jittery and shaky when Disco nearly disappeared out of the world." He mused out and looked towards his crew, who slouched and softened their shoulders then slowly turned their heads at each other. Then faced back at their Leader with one stepping forward.

"Sorry for the intrusion sir, we weren't intending to interrupt anything Mime Jr was doing." Explained the slightly hunched biker wearing outfit man, as Mime Jr waved its right hand in assurance, letting the goon know that it had actually just finished its daily dance hour. The goon smiled in relief and leaned down on his legs and knee, "Really? good to hear Mime Jr, I didn't want to interrupt ya." He laughed when Mime jr nodded its head, then began mimicking him after he stood upright and raised his right hand. "Right, as for what the trouble is sir? We noticed that while the Mime Jr broadcast was going on, we detected some… weird and powerful Psychic energy flux."

"Flux of Psychic energy?" Mirror B repeated while going over his thoughts. "Well, they're some Psychic Pokemon in town. But I don't know who would be strong enough to cancel out Mime Jr and Meditite's psychic control…" The man then adjusted his glasses slightly and lowered them, so his eyes could be seen. "Do we know what Pokemon interfered with the Psychic waves?"

The second member stepped up this time and began pushing his left hand into his pocket, then pulled out a device. "We have an idea of what Pokemon, but the readings are a little off though. We believe it might be a Gardevoir…" The goon shows his boss the energy reader, which Mirror B looks at and smirks when he feels Mime Jr hopping onto his back, crawling up to his shoulders to get a look too. "But for some reason, we keep getting some readings from a human psychic too… it's bizarre."

Mirror B hummed as he took the device and had it facing upright to himself. He looked it over and fiddled with the knobs, trying to see if he could calibrate it better and get a pinpoint reading. "Gardevoir are an interesting species, that's for sure. They tend to have a strong connection and psychic link with their trainers and human partners. So, the device might be getting a bit of her trainer's bond." He mused out, although he looked up when the left goon silently shook his head. "Oh?"

"Trust us when we say the trainer doesn't seem anything special." The man then went ahead and walked over towards one of the consoles in the recording booth, pressing a button to bring up a TV screen within the recording booth and pressed a few buttons to show a live feed of the city. The camera zooms in on the trainer of Gardevoir, along with some other Pokemon following right behind him. "This is the trainer, and after looking things up about him?" The first crew member spoke from the studio. "His name is Ash Ketchum, there's nothing about him having any type of psychic energy whatsoever… it's kind of boggling to think Gardevoir is capable of beating Mime and Meditite psychic-"

"Unless the Gardevoir is highly skilled and has a lot more experience than our current Pokemon." Mirror B retorted while rolling his head to the right, looking over his right shoulder at the man. Mime Jr did the same, while letting out a sigh like his trainer. "I mean, Mime Jr here is still a pre-evolution, and so is Meditite." Mirror B laughed as he lifted his right hand up and pet the Pokemon on the head, having it give a happy coo. "So of course a fully evolved Pokemon like Gardevoir will easily break free of the hold." He then turns back towards the TV screen, taking note that the trainer and his Pokemon are almost about to reach the TV station. "Not only that, but if he is capable of getting his Pokemon that strong, to the point of breaking free from our Pokemon's psychic control, then this trainer is nothing ordinary we're dealing with." He chuckled and began stroking his chin, and Mime jr giggled and stroked its chin as well. "BOYS!" he suddenly shouted and spun in place to face his crew and snap his fingers.

"YES SIR!"

"Bring the welcome carpet for our dear guests! Let's welcome them with open arms," Mirror B began swinging his arm up and down in a criss-cross fashion as he began tap dancing and clicking his heels against the floor, then twirling and throwing his arm up into the air with the studio lights suddenly turning on and shining down on the man. "Let's see just how skilled this trainer is and test him in a Dance battle!"

"Of course sir, right away sir!" The two shouted and lifted their legs off the floor and began darting towards the exit, slamming against one another once more as they tried exiting out of the room at the same time. They pushed their arms and bodies against each other, throwing their legs in a flailing fashion before a pop could be heard and both were released from being trapped in the doorway. They hover in the air for a brief moment, before slamming their right feet onto the floor and begin running down the halls.

Mirror B and Mime Jr were by themselves as they watched the dust being whipped into the air from the goons dashing through the halls. Both the man and Pokemon get a couple of sweat drops before facing each other as Mime Jr happily eyes smiled and laughed with its trainer, while scratching the side of its cheek like Mirror B. "Sometimes, it makes me wonder how those two even survive in the outside world with their goofiness." Mirror B whispered softly to Mime jr, then grinned "Ah well, at least they're entertaining right?"

"Mime, mime!" Mime Jr said and nodded its head to its trainer, agreeing with his statement as they began twirling in place happily. Mirror B smiled while looking down at his Pokemon, letting out a chuckle when the mimic Pokemon was copying some of the goons' antics from earlier. Next, the afro man posed; his face facing down and placed two fingers on his forehead. Then, he raised his other arm high above his head and spun in place, before throwing both arms outwards. "Okay! Mime Jr, let's get excited because we'll be in the Dance battle of a lifetime!"

About a couple minutes away from in front of the TV station, Ash and his Pokemon were approaching the building fast. They were prepared for whatever trouble they might be facing or whoever this Mirror B person is. "I wonder if they are connected to Team Rocket? I don't know anyone who is that goofy like those three." The raven-haired teen said to his Pokemon, with the group shrugging or chirping out their answers. They were unsure if this group is with Team Rocket or Associated with them? One thing that's been bugging both Blaziken and Gardevoir, ever since speaking to the guy from before, is Dance battling.

He told them that these strange people will challenge the trainer and their Pokemon to a dance off. In all their life, since being with their trainers… They had never heard such a thing before. It was a little weird, but it somewhat sparked Blaziken's interest. In truth, the avian pokemon always wanted to know what it's like to dance. Sadly, she couldn't think it over for too long, as once they got closer to the station, the doors to the front entrance burst open! This caused all of them to come to a sliding stop and stare widely at the entrance. They then stepped to the side when what looked to be a rolled up carpet came rolling out from the building, reaching a couple feet past Ash and his Pokemon.

The group then turned back to the entrance when they heard loud fanfare echoing from within. The sound of trumpets were poorly being played by two strange looking guys in overalls. Ash winced when he felt Pikachu crying out and shoving his entire body within his bag, hoping to drown out the bad music. Buneary cried out in pain and went teary-eyed from how bad it's hurting her ears. While Blaziken and Gardevoir gritted their teeth and winced with one eye closed, doing their best to cover their ears from the sounds that were coming out of the instruments. The group let out breaths of relief when the weirdos stopped playing, only for another set of music began playing, having a tempo and upbeat rhythm to it.

"Oh yeah, here we go." A voice shouted within the building as the bass of the music began beating, along with the trumpets playing as sounds of clapping could be heard within the music. Followed by the rhythm, the sound of drums playing joined in with the beats. "It's time for the star to appear, making his way through the welcome carpet to see who it is that he will be facing. The king of dance and disco makes his entrance to the front!" The singing voice continued, belonging to the man of the hour, the one who has the city under his thumb started appearing in front of Ash and his pokemon.

The guitar began playing within what sounded like the man's theme. Pikachu poked his head out from the bag and blinked his amber eyes, while Buneary slowly uncovered her ears and cooed curiously at the tall weird looking man and his giant afro. Meanwhile, Blaziken and Gardevoir were actually feeling their feet tapping to the rhythm of the music while gently and unbeknownst bobbing their heads to the beat and...actually liking the music that's playing. Ash glanced at the girls and back at the man while silently laughing to himself. 'Huh, who knew Gardevoir and Blaziken liked music? I'll have to remember that later, and see if others like music too? But now isn't the time to focus on that."

Ash then took a step back when he saw the afro man begin twirling and facing his back away from Ash, as he moonwalked backwards on the carpet. His shoes slid perfectly across the red carpet, not making it messy when doing so. The man with the giant afro-like hair even began hopping up and down before doing a big backflip into the air and twirled his body around with his arms hugging tightly against his chest. He then lands back onto his feet facing Ash, followed by splitting his legs skillfully apart and touching the ground with incredible skill. He then immediately brings his legs back close to himself, rising up and does a hop before throwing and swinging his left hand criss-cross in front of his body, then snaps his finger. stars somehow flew out when doing so as he posed in front of the young trainer and his Pokemon. "Ladies and gentlemen, Mirror B has arrived, ready to show the world what I can do!"

The man announced, leaving Ash and his Pokemon silent for a brief moment while they stared at him as winds began blowing between the two groups. Mirror B felt a sweat drop forming around his forehead, waiting for a response or some reaction from the young man and his team. "Psst, that's your guy's cue to either applaud or react to my finishing moves." Mirror B whispered out quickly towards Ash and the Pokemon, having them blink their eyes a couple more times then letting out low 'ohs'.

"Oh, um…" Ash began to speak up and then scratched the side of his cheek. "Err sorry, I'm not entirely sure how to respond or react… Considering it's our first time seeing someone dance like that?" Ash answered honestly while chuckling nervously. He watched the man in front of him deflate some air and lower his arms slightly, before straightening himself back up again and looking at the boy. "Sorry." Ash finished, before glaring at Mirror B and his men. "But besides that, who would applaud someone like you? You're forcing people here to do what you want, without even letting them decide for themselves!"

Ash then fumed when Mirror B seemed to ignore his accusation and began stroking his chin. "Huh, tough crowd, tough crowd. I could've sworn my music was moving you guys and having that dancing spirit within you shine." He then points his finger towards Gardevoir and Blaziken, who were taken aback by him noticing. "I know those two definitely felt the beat and the urge to dance within?" He said while smirking at the girls, who quickly looked away. Blaziken crossed her arms, huffing and doing anything to deny that happened. While Gardevoir faintly began opening and closing her mouth and holding her hands behind her back as if to ignore being spoken to. This just made Mirror B laugh, "Very well trained Pokemon there, I respect trainers who have Pokemon who know what or able to feel music through their bodies." Mirror B then raised a finger into the air, "did you know that dancing with your Pokemon is another way of having them relax? It can help relieve them of any stress they have from a Pokemon battle."

"Wait, really?" Ash suddenly asked and then looked down in thought. "Hmm, I'll keep that in mind and-" Pikachu tapped his head, having the teen look at his buddy, before quickly shaking out of it as Pikachu reminded him of the situation. "STOP CHANGING THE SUBJECT!" Ash shouted and thrusted a finger up towards Mirror B, who just chuckled and smiled down at the young trainer. "We're here to stop you from forcing these people and Pokemon to dance!" The trainer then gestured his arm towards the town. "Don't you know how many of them are getting exhausted and tired everyday? They can't go home because they're forced to dance every hour and by the hour!?" Ash then thrusted both arms down when the man let out a yawn, causing Pikachu and Buneary let out threatening growls.

"Yeah, yeah… not like I heard this speech before young man." He then placed a hand on Ash's head and rubbed it furiously. "It is adorable how you want to play the hero though. Listen kid, there are no such things as heroes or villains in this world. Having the mindset and heart of thinking you're doing the right thing is admirable, but sometimes it just leads to more trouble than being helpful." The man then pushed down on Ash's head, forcing the trainer to lean down and then get thrown off balance when Mirror B then shoved his head backwards!

This caused Pikachu to fall on the ground as he landed onto his rear, getting help from Buneary who began asking if he was alright. Ash was caught by Blaziken and Gardevoir, who quickly stepped forward and grabbed before he could fall onto the ground and then glared towards the tall weird man. Ash thanked the girls and gave the same glare towards the man, "I am not acting like a hero!" Ash shouted and stood back up, dusting and adjusting his coat sleeves. "I'm only doing what is right! What you're doing, by forcing people into doing something they don't want to do, is wrong!"

"I don't know?" Mirror B began saying slowly while chuckling. "Seems to me your acting like a stupid little hero," he taunted and watched everyone in front of him getting upset and angry at Mirror B's word. "If you're not acting like a hero, then what do you call it then, hmm?" The afro man leaned forward, having a smug and teasing expression on his face. "Cause right now, all I see is a little kid trying to act like a big shot and play hero. All because he doesn't like what I'm doing here. Stick his nose in other people's business where it doesn't belong."

"Why you-!" Ash began growling, his arms violently trembling, ready to punch the guy in the nose! "Fine, think whatever you want, it doesn't change the fact that we are going to put a stop to your operation!" Ash shouted and pointed one arm at the man. "Let's have a Pokemon battle and we will see who'd be laughing-"

"Nah, not in the mood for a Pokemon battle." Mirror B quickly said while shrugging his arms, causing Ash and his Pokemon to collapse comedically onto the ground before quickly standing back up. "Pokemon battles are for barbarians who just want to prove their crazy fantasy of strength and power." Mirror B stated in his logic, causing Ash and his Pokemon to lose their angry expression from the statement. Then they all deadpanned at once when he gave another dance pose. "SO instead, I do Pokemon Dance battles! It's like Pokemon battles, but without the need of causing needless destruction or hurting Pokemon. Instead of forcing them to waste perfectly good energy, they can use that for dancing!"

Ash and his Pokemon just stared dumbly at the man who was spouting his explanation to them. The raven-haired teenager hummed as he thought it over and decided to see it from his point of view. He turned to look at Gardevoir, asking through eye contact to the blue-eyed Pokemon if this man was telling the truth or not. In which the psychic type pursed her lips to the side, cocking her head lightly while giving a small nod. "Well… alright?" Ash answered as he turned back to the man. "But how do you even do a dance battle?" He asked out of curiosity, seeing the afro wearing man laugh proudly and in excitement, as he raised his hand into the air and once more snapped his fingers with stars flying shouting.

"THIS IS HOW ONE DO DANCE BATTLES!" Mirror B exclaimed as all of a sudden everyone had teleported inside the TV station, due to a psychic type Pokemon using Teleport. They had all been sent to a large room, bathed in lights with diverse colors, softly flashing every few seconds as the colors changed. Large booming music played and echoed within the disco style room. Ash and his Pokemon were mildly surprised at the sight, even more so when they saw the dance floor tiles changing color in rhythm to the music beats. On said dancing floor were Pokemon spread across on it, showing graceful, energetic and skillfully timed dance moves.

This had Ash and the Pokemon eyes widening at the sheer sight of how great dancers these Pokemon were! As the music played, the Pokemon who were dancing showed how in sync they were, a sign of how much they practiced! Ash and his pokemon had to admit, it was an impressive show of talent. In particular, Blaziken, unbeknownst to her, was smiling at the sight and even let out a cute chirp, before blushing when she realized what she did. The avian pokemon even heard Gardevoir giggle while raising her hand to her mouth, but then shielded herself when the sheepish Blaziken slapped her shoulder playfully, before looking away with a snickering smile. The fire type was not at all embarrassed about letting out the cute chirp around her.

Pikachu and Buneary's ears kept raising and lowering to the beat of the music. The two were transfixed on the dance moves of Meditite, Mienshao and Ludicolo, even Mime jr once he joined in after walking through a door. Their bodies all moved and flowed to rhythm, timed with each other's movements. They bobbed their heads to the beat, swung their arms and legs to the tempo of the music. The Ludicolo's even playfully grabbed hands with Meditite and Mime Jr, lifting them to the air and doing small twirls. He then placed them down onto the dance floor, while they themselves twirled in place when the small Pokemon happily lifted their held hands into the air and then posed.

"Amazing, huh?" Mirror B suddenly said to Ash, who couldn't help but nod at the sight. The trainer didn't know people could teach Pokemon to dance like this, let alone how happy and fun they were having too. "What you said before, I know that what we're doing to those people may not be right. But sometimes, we gotta share that music within ourselves. To show the world that there are many ways to be happy. Dancing is one of them, whether you know how to or not?" He continued saying as he stepped forward in front of the trainer and his Pokemon. Spreading his arms out wide with pride, he continued. "That is why me and my gang are here, to spread happiness and joy to the world with dancing. People need to feel the music and rhythm within themselves, even if they don't want to!"

Ash stared at Mirror B a little, and then crossed his arms, closing his eyes in thought. He snorted lightly when he heard Pikachu and Buneary- the small rabbit grabbing onto the mouse's hands and dragging the male Pokemon onto the dance floor! This had Ash open his eyes again, watching how the other Pokemon happily welcomed them onto the dance floor. They began moving slowly with the two, teaching them the steps slowly at first, easing them into it before speeding it up. Gardevoir and Blaziken had jubilant expressions on their faces, playfully clapping to the beat of the music, cheering the two smaller Pokemon on, giggling at the sight of Pikachu stumbling and trying his best to keep up with the rhythm.

"Everyone looks happy, I don't feel anything… bad from them either." Ash thought to himself, that and it is kind of cute seeing his buddy and Buneary dancing with each other. But…"It still doesn't mean you should force people to do something they don't want too." Ash openly said and looked towards Mirror B, who looked at the young trainer and smiled. He sensed the burning passion in Ash's words and determination, picking up the young man's drive to help those in need. "So, no matter what. I will put a stop to this." Ash then laughed with a bashful blush. "As long as you keep your promise not to bother people or have them do something by force."

Mirror B smirked, "Well I can't keep that promise. BUT," He raised a finger before Ash could protest, "if I come across someone like you in the future, I will do the same with them and not force people to dance. Deal?" He chuckled as the young trainer couldn't counter with that argument. He's got a point, Ash thought to himself. He won't know if Mirror B will keep his promise, thus making that argument and arranging a deal to work around it. Who knows? that trainer and their Pokemon -like him- might also find fun in this.

"Deal," Ash agreed, then looked towards the dance floor and saw the Pokemon were now clapping their hands and side-stepping now with amazing sync. Even Pikachu was able to keep up now and was hopping in his steps with the rest of the Pokemon, as they threw their hands up and clapped. They then sidestepped to their left with four steps and clapped once more, then when they began moving to the center of their last position the entire group spun in place and began putting one paw forward each. Raising their arms up and then the other arm down, then doing it reverse as they all have smiles on their faces. "So… if it's a dance battle, how do you do it with Pokemon?"

Mirror B smirked and thought it over, watching the group of Pokemon doing the dance and not having the heart to stop them right now. He thought the entire dance alone was amazing, and with Buneary and Pikachu in the mix? This had to have been the perfect dance going on for a group dance. It'd be stupid to have his Pokemon do a new dance and challenge the young trainer to making a new one. He then moved his eyes over towards Gardevoir and Blaziken, who were just joyfully clapping their hands, their bodies skipping to the music playing. Mirror B stared for a while, before smiling. "I think I know how we can have this battle." He suddenly said, gaining Gardevoir and Blaziken's eyes, as well as Ash's attention.

The raven-haired trainer then looks towards the two Pokemon, watching their blue eyes staring back at him and the man. Gardevoir's eyes then shrank and turned completely red in the face as she sensed what the two guys were thinking, while Blaziken tilted her head and then pointed a talon finger at herself and Gardevoir. "If Blaziken and Gardevoir show even better dance moves than the large group are showing right now, then they win?" Mirror B began saying as he approached the two females and walked behind the two. He then brought them closer to each other, causing Blaziken's red face turning Pink when she was brought closer to Gardevoir, with the latter looking down in complete embarrassment and rapidly shaking her head no. She didn't want to dance, she'd get embarrassed about it and possibly make a fool of herself!

"Come on Gardevoir, what did I say?" Mirror B chuckled and stepped away from the two girls, having them both look at him and then watch the man spread his arms apart. "Whether you dance well or not, it's all about having fun. I can sense that the two of you have this deep passion to dance inside of you." He grinned and pointed his index fingers at the two Pokemon. "Come on, what do you say? Show everyone here the passion within you and show your dancing sides!" The man encouraged them, as the two girls glanced at one another and then sheepishly looked away, though Gardevoir's eyes turned white when Blaziken pumped her arm chirping out "sure thing!"

The bashful psychic Pokemon reacted by whipping her head towards Blaziken and nearly squealed out, though blushed and blinked her blue eyes, when Blaziken calmly held both hands with her own and smiled down at the Pokemon. "Blaziken, Blaz Blaz," she chirped, telling her how she has nothing to fear, letting Gardevoir know to use her empathic ability to keep and be in timing with the girl. The blushing fairy/Psychic type Pokemon continued staring with her blue eyes before sighing, then smiling weakly and nodding her head. She figured what did they have to lose, besides the whole town? No pressure, she thought to herself sarcastically!

"Alright then, everyone step off of the dance floor! Gardevoir and Blaziken will be showing us what kind of dance Pokemon can really do!" Mirror B shouted while clapping his hands, as the Pokemon on the dance floor looked towards the two female Pokemon before walking off the stage. Buneary and Pikachu wished the two of them good luck, as Blaziken and Gardevoir began stepping onto the dance floor, with Blaziken still holding onto Gardevoir's hand as they walked up. The empathetic Pokemon stared at the hand, feeling the fire-bird pokemon's talon thumb gently caressing against her hand to calm her down, assuring her everything is going to be okay.

Once they got to the center of the stage, the two faced one another with Gardevoir looking up at her and Blaziken looking down at her and winked. This garnered a confused expression on Gardevoir's face, who then picked up the type of music they would be dancing to from within Blaziken's mind. It's a fast, upbeat song that the fire starter heard during her travels that fits perfectly for the two of them. The lyrics play in Gardevoir's head, having the girl blush and giggle happily as she felt that it fit perfectly for the two of them. The song name even floated over to the DJ of the room as Mirror B approached him, who looked at the song he grabbed. The DJ whispered out at the afro man, "I don't know why, but this popped in my head all of the sudden?"

"Hmm…" Mirror B looked at the title and smiled brightly. "Ah such a classic! You have some amazing taste, Blaziken." The man praised with a chuckle, surprising everyone in the room. They wondered how he knew it was Blaziken who wanted it, while said Pokemon smiled brightly, glad to know Mirror B heard of the song. She saw him take the music record from its box and place it onto the record player.

"Alright you two, you got this!" Ash cheered out along with Buneary and Pikachu, as they watched their friends take center stage and faced one another. Blues eyes connected to one another as they waited for the song to start playing, with the movements beginning to play in Gardevoir's head. The girl gulped softly as she had never danced for a long time, not since she was a Kirlia. Gardevoir felt Blaziken resting one hand along her hips, while the other hand went and held onto Gardevoir's other hand. This had the girl look at the hand on her hip, which she figured to copy it and placed her hand onto Blaziken's hips and held onto her hand as she stared back up at the female Pokemon, who nodded and waited for the music to start.

"Alright girl's...3...2...1" Mirror B counted backwards before placing the needle onto the record player, and then music started playing.

Xxx

The room went silent when the two Pokemon took center stage as the lights began dimming down, turning all surrounding the dance floor into darkness. This way, both female Pokemon won't get distracted or get stage fright from seeing the audience. The lights below them on stage glowed, illuminating both girls in white light, their eyes glistening within half of the darkness in the room. They felt their hands squeezing against one another, inhaling and exhaling to relax themselves as they closed their eyes for a brief moment… Nothing exists outside, nothing exists around them, it is just them now and no one else in the room. Both girls open their eyes once more and stare at one another. Blaziken feels her face turning pink slightly as she stares at Gardevoir's blue eyes, with Gardevoir staring back and waiting for when the song starts.

I gonna show you my power~

I gonna show you my Fire~

I'm sexy, of course I know it~

Once the song began, the girls immediately went to it as they started moving to the music. Blaziken took the lead in dancing as the two of them began shuffling east of the dance floor. The two of them spun around a little, before Blaziken began spreading and spinning Gardevoir outwards, with both of their arms sliding away from one another and extending out. Gardevoir threw her arms up into the air when she reached the end of where their arms reached. She then quickly twirled back inward when Blaziken lifted her arm into the air and twirling her back to her. The two girls bumped into each other and began rocking and moving backwards to the west of the dance floor. As Gardevoir was now leading, she felt a pulse of emotions going through her body.

She twirled the two of them as she stayed in the center of the stage, throwing Blaziken in a spinning dance to the outside of the floor. Their arms extended and reached out for one another, with Blaziken stopping herself and lifting one leg into the air just a few centimeters from the floor, with her free arm raising into the air. The two of them then began spinning in place with their connected arms doing loops with each other as Blaziken moved elegantly around to the back of the dance floor, with Gardevoir spinning and moving her body in large circles whenever her arm goes over her body. The empath's dress flapped and swung around, showing her legs off nicely as the dance floor began turning green and red respectfully between the two Pokemon.

I gonna steal your heart baby~

I gonna steal your part of life~

I'm sexy, no doubt I knew it~

The two female Pokemon then briefly let go of one another and spun around the dance floor with their arms hugging close, with one leg lifted up and touching against their knees. Their movements timed in sync with each other as they were spinning and turning around the dance floor, the lights blinking between the two of them in red and green color. The red lights followed Blaziken in a clock hand like fashion, while the green lights centered on Gardevoir, before extending into a circular shape around her and then back in. The two Pokemon were now spinning side by side, both quickly threw one arm up and then their heads into the air, then threw their free arm down, spreading their fingers as they started to slowly raise them up. Both of them have bright smiles on their faces as they clapped their hands together, and then clap their hands low and swinging their bodies side to side, shaking their hips and doing small steps to the right and left, moving forward and then clasping their hands and arms together, bringing them towards then away from their bodies.

I'll have your heart oh~

Inside of my hand~

Cause I'm a queen~

Oh Queen of the passion~

They then slid away from each other, having their arms connect and slide from their forearms to their extended arms. They then held onto each others hands as they pulled away from each other, both of them then swinging themselves into the other with their backs, clapping their free hands on their partner's and then towards the outside of the dance floor. They clapped their hands again and pulled each other away from their backs, while Blaziken was having Gardevoir spin towards her chest, feeling her back hitting against her. She then wrapped her right arm around the psychic girl's waist line, resting her head against her shoulder and smiling at the blushing psychic/female Pokemon. The latter's just covered in smiles as she held onto Blaziken's arm that wrapped around her waist. They bounced and kicked their legs up and down moving to the right, and then moving in that direction.

I gonna show you my power~

I gonna show you my Fire~

Well I know it, I'm Queen of Passion~

Everyone in the room was amazed as they stared at the two pokemon dancing on the floor. They were clapping and moving their bodies to the movement and beat of the music. People and pokemon alike enjoyed the show in front of them, unable to tear their eyes away from the two Pokemon who were stealing the show greatly! It even had Ash left in awe at how spectacular the two were at dancing, let alone Blaziken whose smile never left the girl's face. Gardevoir also looked to be having a fun time as the two girls continued moving and swinging their legs in time with each other. Ash was smiling and beaming brightly at the show, now seeing how dancing could be another way for Pokemon and humans to have fun!

I'll have your heart, oh~

Inside of my hand~

Cause I am the queen~

The two Pokemon grabbed onto their partner's free hand and Gardevoir began spinning away from Blaziken and then got pulled back. As the avian Pokemon held her close, she took small notice of the girl's dress straps beginning to slide down and off Gardevoir's shoulders. Not wanting the girl's dress to fall on her, Blaziken made sure that near the end of the dance the two would be held close as they pressed into one another. Gardevoir giggled, turning red when she felt Blaziken's right arm reaching to her back and slightly above her rear, but didn't care! She was having a blast as the light around them shone on the two within the darkness, as they glided and slid around the dance floor. Both of them pull apart and back in together, throwing their hands out and close to each other.

Oh the queen of Passion~

Gardevoir then felt Blaziken wrapping her arms around her sides, pushing her down slightly and spreading her legs apart, as Gardevoir slid between them. She then felt her entire weight being lifted and thrown into the air! Gardevoir's dress flapped widely as she made a quick pose with her eyes closed, elegantly bending her upper body down and using her psychic powers to stay a float for a while. She posed stupendously for everyone there as the lights shone behind Gardevoir! Blaziken's face smiles brightly and turns completely pink, admiring the grace the Pokemon has as she then saw the girl beginning to let gravity take place and began falling down towards the dance floor.

Cause I am queen~

Blaziken threw her arms up and grabbed onto Gardevoir's hands, before tugging hard and fast. This threw Gardevoir's weight towards herself and the dress flowing swiftly with the movement. The empath felt her right leg intertwining with Blaziken, as she slipped it between Blaziken's inner thighs as it stuck out behind her dance partner, while the other leg touched the floor and bends down from Gardevoir's weight. She then laid her upper body back and downward with closed eyes, feeling Blaziken's face and chin resting and touching against her chest with her eyes closed as well. Her forehead resting against Gardevoir's chin,as she was in a kneeling position finishing up their dance routine as the song ended.

Oh I'm the Queen of Passion~

Xxx

Few minutes after the dance was done, the entire crowd within the dance floor were cheering, rooting and clapping their hands and paws! The cheers did not once stop as both Gardevoir and Blaziken returned to their senses and finally took note of where they were. They could hear the cheers and claps from the audience, their trainer and even Mirror B being the loudest with their applause. The two female Pokemon were panting and breathing while still in their pose. Blaziken lifted her head away from Gardevoir's chest, while Gardevoir lifted up her head and upper body arms instinctively wrapping around the avian's shoulders and neck. Then let out a quick yelp when Blaziken threw the two of them back onto their feet, having the psychic/fairy type come close against the fire Pokemon body, feeling their chests touching and squishing into one another, while she felt Blaziken firmed hands wrapping softly and securely around Gardevoir's waist and back.

Gardevoir started laughing when Blaziken spun her around and had her facing the crowd while resting her talon hands onto her shoulders. The avian pokemon's face turned pink when Gardevoir looked over her shoulder and smiled brightly at the tall Pokemon with her own blush. The two faced forward when Ash, Pikachu and Buneary came running onto the dance floor, with Mirror B approaching as well. "That was amazing! I never thought the two of you could dance like that, especially you Blaziken!" Ash exclaimed while throwing his arms forward. Getting the fire starter to chuckle bashfully while looking away in embarrassment. Then chirps out some squeaks some more when Ash continued praising her, "aw come on that was amazing! If I knew you could dance like that and making you feel happy, I should've gotten us a portable radio or something!" Ash continued saying while beaming brightly at the now bashful and embarrassed fire type, who shut her eyes and growled out at the boy telling him to stop. Earning some laughter and giggles from the Pokemon and some laughter from Mirror B.

"He is right, you girls were fantastic!" Exclaimed the afro-haired man as she does some quick dance steps, snapping his fingers posing in front of the group. "It was DY-NA-MITE", he then relaxed and smiled towards Ash. "Young man you definitely have great Pokemon on you. I will confess," he then smirked as Ash widened his eyes and then let out an understanding ah when Mirror B said. "When I laid eyes on that Pikachu of yours and then the two girls. I knew I wouldn't stand a chance in a Pokemon battle. As my Pokemon are groomed and trained to be dancers, not fighters. Thus I challenged you to a Dance battle."

While he explains this to Ash, Gardevoir let out a couple of small groans and grunts, as she began rolling shoulders, sighing in agitation. Alerted to her cries, Blaziken turned to the girl and smiled, "Blaziken?" She suddenly chirped to the psychic, who turned to look at her, and saw Blaziken raising her talons up. "Ken, blaziken." She asked if Gardevoir would want a massage? The empathetic pokemon hummed, thinking it over while shifting her blue eyes towards the right. After a few seconds, she looked back at the avian pokemon and nodded with her eyes smiling. She turned her back towards Blaziken and did her best to relax. She shivered slightly when she felt Blaziken approaching and rested her talons onto her shoulders. The fire type removed the dresses straps for easy access, letting the dress droop down ever so slightly, revealing more of Gardevoir's supple bosom and cleavage.

Gardevoir hummed as she felt Blaziken's touch… but it was odd? The way she grabbed her shoulders, she was being tender and very careful, as if she didn't want to hurt her. The psychic type felt Blaziken's thumbs pressing and pushing up against the back of her shoulders, with such tender care as they began to knead in small circles, while the fingers gripped over her shoulders and began squeezing and kneading into them with... tender love? Regardless though, Gardevoir was cooing softly with a deep pleasant moan that had Blaziken's face turning even more pink as she focused on the task, continuing her massage and tending to Gardevoir's sore muscle. Meanwhile, the Psychic type tried her best to figure out what's going on as her empath was picking up a lot of… different senses and emotions from Blaziken, but didn't dare to speak or bring it up.

Considering it's only been a few days since their fight, with Gardevoir breaking Blaziken out of her shell? She didn't want to push the girl into answering anything, or be afraid of her shutting herself out again. But one thing she has been picking up from the fire type were… emotions centering around the psychic type herself. They appeared to be the strongest, and for some reason it brought a small blush to the girl. She giggled softly, alerting Blaziken who chirped curiously while noticing Gardevoir looking towards her and smiled. The empathetic pokemon smiled even brighter and said, "thank you." She then faced back forward, while Blaziken stared confusingly at first of what that meant? But she just smiled and blushed as she went ahead and finished up helping her friend.

Outside of the city gates, Mirror B and his Pokemon, plus his crew walking out with Ash up to a fork in the road, as they turned and faced towards one another as Mirror B then raised a finger. "Ah wait, almost forgot!" Laughed the man, having Ash to tilt his hands and then felt his hand being grabbed by Mirror B with his free hand, was in his sack that's tied around his hip and pulled something out. "Here you go." Then placed the object in Ash's hand and had the boy smiling, "your reward for showing us such graceful and amazing dancers like Gardevoir and Blaziken into our lives. Never have I seen such amazing dancing Pokemon."

"Oh wow a CD player, are you sure?" Ash asked while looking up at the ma and felt Buneary and Pikachu hopping onto his shoulders- even laughing when Mienshao bark at the boy with smiles of its own, as if answering Mirror B for herself. Making Ash to snicker when the Pokemon probably told him of course, "thanks Mirror B- it was a weird encounter but I learned quite a lot from this experience. Especially learning that Pokemon love to dance."

"It was a good learning experience for us as well, knowing there are genuine people like you out there. Who cares for others and Pokemon," then claps hands with Ash and shakes hands. "Whenever you have the time or chance Ash, you should try and visit the Orre Region." Then smiled and laughed, "there may not be many Pokemon there- but the places and villages there- are quite the sight to see and lots of people. Love to have Pokemon battles too."

"Sure thing I will think it over...but no promises." Ash said surprising Mirror B and then had the two of them bursting in laughter, as Ash did what Mirror B said back on the dance floor about not keeping any promise.

With a wave and going their separate ways our Hero continues his journey of becoming a Pokemon master. Learning things on his journey and having the knowledge now about Pokemon, love to dance and listen to music that will make them happy and relaxed. Our hero will make sure he takes everything he had learn from this Dance battle and make sure that whenever they have a break or picnic, he will ask his girls if they would love to dance to some music and have some fun as his next destination and Gym badge is not too far- as his journey to getting his seventh gym badge on Cinnabar island continues.

Meanwhile…

A man was blasted towards a nearby mountain wall, an energy beam going through his right chest. Psychic condensed energy crushed and broke his limbs with relative ease, making him scream in agony and pain. As unbearable as it was, he could also feel his body constantly becoming whole and transparent, as he was breathing ragged. His body slid down the mountain side and went limp on the ground.

His dirty and half destroyed league hat burned to ashes in front of him, and his derange, demented brown eyes lifted up towards his attackers, as he felt blood trailing down the right corner of his mouth. His blue jacket was destroyed and in tears everywhere- he coughed a couple of times and grinned sickly towards his attackers as he horsley whispered. "Who… would've thought that you would be capable of stopping me? Despite how many altered timelines we went through in this world. How many times you failed to kill me…"

The man he was speaking to is Des, who was staring down at the man. Alongside him were Mewtwo and Mew, who he had seeked for their assistance and help after the two legendaries fated encounter with Ash. He told them how dangerous the man in front of him, going by the name of Tey, truly was. He even revealed his identity and past to them, shocking the two Pokemon to their core, unable to fathom that 'he' could become this person! Let alone Tey was planning to turn him into himself, another Tey, a world that wouldn't survive if another was born. "Tell me...how-"

"It's actually thanks to Ash and his friends. First was Leaf, who you tried to capture and torture in order to bring in Ash. But because of her fighting back with her Pokemon, despite her being out powered by you. She forced you to waste a lot of energy during her fight." Des then steps forward and lifts a second finger, "Then Ash himself, you were in such a hurry to catch him and steal his life force to become whole again, you were once again forced to battle and fight his Pokemon. So you used up more of your powers that were keeping you here in this timeline." Then glared. "However, because of you trying to toy with him, force him to become you by messing with Pikachu, his Pikachu surprised you greatly with its strength. His pokemon took out even your strongest Pokemon, so you had to resort to using your own energy to capture them both."

That is when Mewtwo stepped, "Before he even went to find Ash at Lavender town, he came towards Doctor Fuji laboratory in order to control me and make me submit to his ways." The female Pokemon then grinned, "But what he didn't expect, despite trying to erase my memories, was me retaliating and fighting back against him. I forced him to already use his energy during our fight, weakening him greatly and using up his time here in this timeline and world." Then swished her tail left to right, "which had him become desperate when he got back to the main lands of Kanto."

Tey click his tongue and then let out a horrible howl of pain when he felt something stabbing right into his chest and heart, causing him to widen his eyes and feeling his entire life force disappearing within his body. Shifting his gaze at a now relieved and relaxed Des, who stares back "And thanks to those three, with Robert and his Eevee managing to keep getting back up, despite how much pain they were in. Send you flying out of the tower, forcing you to use up whatever energy you have left, to survive the fall." Des then steps back and watches the monster in front of him finally dying and disappearing in front of the trio.

"No more Ash's have to be killed by you now...they will all return back to where they belong, being freed from within you and setting everything to their worlds that Arceus made- all back in order." And then smiled, "and to think...it took a bunch of rookies to beat the well experience Tey…" then closed his eyes and shook his head as the man's form was now revealing the True tey, as the raven hair that once was coated in nothing but red and white, has reformed back to normal. The man's age regresses back to its true form and not the monster Des once knew, as his markings on his cheeks appear and a child-like face is replacing the mature looking face. As it reveals, "or should I say the well experienced Ash ketchum."

This had Mewtwo and Mew widening their eyes and complete shock of what's happening in front of them, as Mewtwo let out a soft growl. "So...it was Ash that I sensed within him when I encountered him, while being confused why Ash's presence felt like his...then that means." Then the two looked towards Des as he lifted his hands and saw he too was disappearing and reverting back to his true form as well. "...Ash?" The two Pokemon called doubt and watched Des turn to them and smiled apologetically.

"Sorry girls, I couldn't reveal myself to anyone here." He then looks toward Tey with a serious expression. "All of this happened because of Cyrus killing Pikachu. Ash has lost his mind and gone on a dark road… even using the red chains to absorb both Dialga's time travel powers and Palkia's dimension space powers into his body. He tried creating a perfect world where he and Pikachu would never separate. However, because of Arceus' ruling of his world, it could never happen…" The man clenches his fist. "So he decided that if he can't have happiness, then no Ash will. Becoming the monster you see right now…" Des then exhaled as he felt Mewtwo 's and Mew's confusing stares and worries as he mentioned Arceus… well more Mew being worried while Mewtwo was confused who Arceus is?

Des then lifted his head up to the sky, watching countless souls coming out of Tey and flying up, disappearing one by one as they were returning home, restoring their worlds once more. "Well Pikachu… I did it. I'm sorry it took so long to do, but I finally did it…" Des began saying leaving the two legendary confused of what's going on, and then gasp when he too began glowing and reverting back to his original form while a yellow orb began floating down towards the man and circling around him as tears began falling down his face in happiness, and began laughing- laughing in happiness once again, one he never thought he will ever be able to do. "Yes...let's go home Pikachu...everyone is waiting for us." Mewtwo and Mew shielded their eyes when the yellow orb touched Des and blinded them briefly. Once they recovered, the two blinked their eyes a couple of times and lowered their arms, then letting out curious hums when they saw another Ash, one wearing an outfit that was a black shirt with white short sleeves with a yellow stripe on it with blue jeans. His league hat being red, with black covering the middle part of it with a blue League symbol. Wearing black fingerless gloves, holding onto an orange fur color Pikachu who was nuzzling and rubbing her cheeks against his as they began floating upwards and towards the skies.

The two then separated and smiled as they then looked down towards the confused legendary Pokemon, "thanks again you two… If you ever meet Ash or his friends again, tell them I said thanks. Goodbye!" He called out with Pikachu doing the same as a bright flash of light engulfed them and disappeared in front of the two. The two continued staring at the open sky as the sun shined and no clouds in sight, with the nice warm summer air and winds blowing through the mountain side and fields, brushing against the two fur as they felt small tears rolling down their eyes. Causing Mewtwo to let out a low hum and then wipe her eyes, while Mew did the same.

The two then sighed and smiled towards each other, "It's over, we no longer have to worry about any more deranged and crazy people invading anytime soon. But what now? And… who's Arceus?" Mewtwo said and asked Mew, who laughed sheepishly and gently floated away from the girl as she muttered softly.

"Mew… ew, ew, Mew." Chanted the psychic cat, explaining to Mewtwo how Arceus is basically the creator of all worlds, Pokemon and humans. The GOD of all Pokemon and is technically their parent in a sense. Having Mewtwo stare dumbly at first and then leered at the cat, who began sweating profusely from the glare she was receiving.

"Really now? If this Arceus is this GOD of all Pokemon and creator of worlds...then how come they DIDN'T STOP THIS PERSON FROM EVADING OTHER WORLDS OR IN OUR CASE TIMELINE!?" She yelled while throwing her arms apart causing her assets to thrash about, as she took a step forward and poked roughly into Mew. "Don't even think of giving me 'they don't have the power to do so,' cause when you make a statement like GOD of ALL things, THEN THEY-"

"MEW, MEEW, MEW EWW!" Mew yelled back in retaliation, literally telling Mewtwo how Arceus refuses to interfere or intervene whatever goes on in the worlds they create. They let things play out on their own, and will only step in when they have too.

"Then how come they didn't stop Tey from absorbing Dialga and Palkia huh!? Something like that would have been called 'stepping in'!"

This had Mew nodding in response, it was confusing her too. The only way she could get the answers for that, is to go to the Hall of Origins to get the answers from the horse's mouth itself. "Mew, mew." Mew then hardened her expression and told Mewtwo that they were leaving! The taller Pokemon stared confusingly as she watched Mew starting to fly away,

"Hold on, where are we going?!"

Mew, who had her back facing Mewtwo, turned her head to face the tall female Pokemon with a very serious expression and said, "We're going to the hall of origins and speak with mother!"

And so, our hero's journey continues…

To be continued...
