Chapter 66: Pallet Town Party and the Hexagon Pokémon

Hello everyone, it's been a while but here's the next chapter for the series as we're starting a brand-new arc. In this arc there'll be new captures, evolutions, rivals, and new villains will appear. But for today's chapter it'll mainly focus on the gang having an after party for the league and discovering a new never before seen Pokémon I hope you all enjoy!

The chapter begins 3 days after the last chapter ended and it's currently nighttime in Pallet Town with everyone sleeping peacefully. Up in the sky we see a large plane that's invisible it's currently flying over Pallet Town inside the plane we see two men looking through the cargo as one of them speaks.

"How come we're on cargo duty?" Man 1 asks in frustration as the other man speaks.

"Because the boss said so and you don't want to get on her bad side" Man 2 responds with Man 1 nodding as they continue looking through the cargo. As they're going through the boxes Man 1 finds a mysterious black box with red and blue lines on the side. Man 1 continues to look at it as he speaks.

"Hey, did we need to do anything with this box?" Man 1 says showing Man 2 the box. Man 2 looks at the box and speaks.

"Hmmm I've never seen this box before" Man 2 says as Man 1 speaks.

"What should we do with it?" Man 1 asks as Man 2 speaks.

"Let's see what's inside" Man 2 says with Man 1 nodding as they open the box. Once they do they see nothing inside making both men annoyed as Man 1 speaks.

"There's nothing valuable in here why do we have it on the ship?" Man 1 asks as Man 2 speaks.

"I'm not sure but it's just taking up storage space let's get rid of it" Man 2 says with Man 1 nodding. They find a window open it and throw the box outside, once they do Man 2 speaks.

"Now that, that's done come on let's continue checking on the rest of the storage" Man 2 says with Man 1 nodding as they both leave. Meanwhile we see the black box continue to fall from the sky until it hits a Fearow on the head, making the bird crash on the ground next to Prof. Oak's ranch. Fearow groans in pain and looks at the box that fell on its head. Fearow has an angry look on its face but decides to fly away saying to itself that it'll deal with the box tomorrow, as Fearow's flying the box slightly opens as a small grey Pokémon with what looks like a hexagon on its head appears getting out of the box and landing on the ground. Before Fearow gets too far away it sees the Pokémon looking around and begins walking away from the box. Fearow now knows what to go after as it continues flying in the air until it reaches Viridian Forest to rest. Meanwhile the little Hexagon Pokémon continues to walk around as a few more like it appear out of the box and begin walking around too.


It's now 8:30 am in the morning we see Ash, Misty, Brock, Delia, Mr. Mime, Pikachu, Riolu, Froakie, Torracat, Lycanroc, Floragato, and Rowlet (perched on Brock's head) they are all outside currently saying goodbye to Red. During the past 4 days Ash and friends have mostly been relaxing, Ash thanked all of his Pokémon for how well they did in the league and Red stayed home too spending time with his family. Also 1 day prior when the gang along with Ash's Pokémon and Mr. Mine were out of the house spending time at Oak's Lab Delia and Red got to spend some alone time together. Neither Ash, Misty, nor Leaf knew what the two adults meant, they tried asking Brock, but the teen tells them that they're too young to know with his face being bright red. We now come back to present time Ash looks at his father and speaks.

"Do you really have to go dad?" Ash asks as Red speaks.

"Yes, unfortunately I do I'm currently still in the process of looking for something and I'm not sure when I'll be back" Red responds with Ash nodding as Red continues to speak.

"But if you ever want to talk to me, you can call me on your Pokegear and I'll make sure to answer" Red says smiling making Ash smile too. Delia then walks over to Red hands him a bag of food and speaks.

"Here's a weeks' worth of food make sure you don't eat all of it in one day" Delia says with Red nodding. Red then turns around grabs a Pokeball and speaks.

"Charizard, I choose you!" Red says he throws the ball forward as his Charizard appears letting out a mighty roar then waits for Red to get on its back. Red then gives Delia a goodbye kiss, hugs Ash and shakes Brock's/Misty's hands. Red gets on Charizard's back looks at everyone one more time and speaks.

"I'll see you all later. Let's go Charizard" Red says with the fire lizard nodding as it begins flying in the air Delia speaks.

"Red don't forget to change your underwear every day!" Delia says which almost makes Red fall off Charizard's back but he manages to catch himself. Red's face blushes in embarrassment but smiles as Charizard continues to fly forward. The group wave them goodbye until they can't see them anymore, once they're gone Ash has a sad look on his face as Misty speaks.

"Are you okay Ash?" Misty asks as Ash speaks.

"Yeah, I'm fine it sucks that my dad's gone but it was great that I got to spend time with him even though it was short. And the next time I see him again I'll request a battle and show him just how much stronger we've become" Ash says with his Pokémon roaring in agreement making Misty, Brock, Delia, and Mr. Mime smile. Brock then looks at his Pokegear and speaks.

"Hey, look at the time it's almost time for the party" Brock says with everyone nodding as Ash speaks.

"Okay let's go" Ash says as he along with Misty, Brock, Delia, Mr. Mime, and his Pokémon begin walking to Prof. Oak's lab.


10 minutes later they've made it to Oak's lab. Currently Ash (with Pikachu, Gyarados, Clefable, Venusaur, Wartortle, Charizard, Kingler, Raichu, Ninetales, Muk, Primeape, Gengar, Riolu, and Froakie next to him), Leaf (with Venusaur, Meowscarda, Poliwrath, Talonflame, Nidoqueen, Jigglypuff, Krookodile, Kanto Rapidash, Toedscruel, Fearow, Persian, Flamigo, Victreebel, and Aurorus next to her), Oak, Delia and Rose are standing on a stage looking at a big crowd of people. We see the residents of Pallet Town, Daisy, Misty's sisters, Brock's family, Sabrina, Anabel, and all of Ash's/Leaf's Pokémon. They're all looking at the stage as Oak speaks.

"Hello everyone thank you for making time in your busy schedules to come to this party where we celebrate Ash making to the Top 4 and Leaf making it to the Top 8 let's all give them a round of applause!" Oak says as everyone claps for them making both Ash and Leaf happy as Oak continues to speak.

"Now with that out of the way let's party!" Oak exclaims as everyone lets out a loud cheer Misty and Brock send out their Pokémon. Misty's Pokémon consists of Vaporeon, Golisopod, Psyduck, Slowpoke, Sobble and Quaxly (Misty puts Togepi down so it can join her Pokémon). Brock's Pokémon consists of Onix, Alolan Golem, Vulpix, Midday Lycanroc, Croagunk and Kangaskan. Once their Pokémon appear they have smiles on their faces as they and everyone else begin enjoying themselves. Everyone's having a fun time eating food, playing games, and interacting with each other. We see Ash's Hawlucha, Farfetch'd, Primeape, Heracross, Tinkaton along with Leaf's Flamigo, Hitmonchan, Hitmontop and Poliwrath currently having a flex off. Ash's Hitmonlee, Bisharp and Charcadet are currently meditating with Leaf's Hitmonlee joining them. Ash's Clefable walks over to the 4-mons and hands them all a plate of food making them happy saying thank you. Up in the air we see Ash's Pidgeot, Corviknight, Noivern, Flygon, Scyther, Noctowl, Leaf's Fearow, shiny Talonflame, Shiny Altaria, Toucannon, her 4 Oricorio's and Daisy's Aerodactyl are happily flying in the air interacting with each other. Next, we see Ash's Pikachu, Alolan Raichu, Alolan Ninetales, Glalie, Galarian Darumaka, Hisuian Arcanine, Dusk Lycanroc, Torracat, Floragato, Luxio, Pyroar, Tauros, Lee, Blaze, Aqua, Riolu, Froakie along with Brock's Onix, Vulpix, Midday Lycanroc, Kangaskan, Alolan Golem, Croagunk, Misty's Vaporeon, Golisopod, Psyduck, Slowpoke, Sobble, Quaxly, Togepi and Leaf's Meowscarda, Dachsbun, Boltund, Obstagoon, Persian, shiny Kanto Rapidash, Galarian Rapidash (now named Cotton), Mudsdale, Kabutops, Omastar, Omanyte, Kabuto, Morpeko, Maushold and Greavard are happily sitting together talking and eating food.

We then pan out throughout the party and see that everyone's having a good time except for 1. We see Ash's Charizard having a sad look on its face, Charizard's still sad that it lost the league for Ash. Dratini looks at Charizard and goes to her master. Once Dratini's close enough she speaks.

"Tini?" Dratini asks if Charizard's still sad about the loss with Charizard nodding. Dratini then tells Charizard that even though it lost she still finds her master to be cool, tells Charizard that it did great in the league and looks forward to one day becoming as strong as it. Charizard looks at Dratini until Gyarados, along with Ash's other fire types appear agreeing with her saying that they'll continue to grow stronger together alongside Charizard. Charizard looks at them and smiles as it then happily begins to eat some food with the others joining in. As we continue to see everyone enjoy themselves, we see Delia, Rose, Daisy, and Sabrina currently at a table talking as Sabrina speaks.

"So, Red didn't want to stay?" Sabrina asks as Delia speaks.

"Unfortunately, after 4 days of relaxing he wanted to go back to work. But even though it was only 4 days I'm happy that he stayed home for a little bit" Delia responds smiling with the 3-woman nodding as Daisy speaks.

"Aw that's a shame I was hoping he would come as Mr. Riley; Ms. Yellow and my father couldn't come as they were too busy" Daisy says with Delia and Sabrina nodding. Rose then lets out a big sigh catching the 3 woman's attention as Daisy speaks.

"Is something wrong Ms. Green?" Daisy asks as Rose speaks.

"Oh, it's just that I remembered that after this party I have to go back to Indigo Plateau tomorrow to sign a bunch of paperwork" Rose says as Sabrina speaks.

"Is that a requirement of when you become an Elite 4 member?" Sabrina asks as Rose speaks.

"Not really but since there's only been 3 Elite 4 members for a long time, they were unable to finish a lot of paperwork so now that I joined, I have to do it. If I'd known that from the beginning, I wouldn't have joined" Rose says while having a tired look on her face with Daisy, Delia, and Sabrina nodding as Rose speaks.

"So, before I go back to work, I'm going to party as much as I can!" Rose states as she begins to drink a lot of soda pop and eat a bunch of food. Daisy, Delia, and Sabrina look at Rose eating/drinking fast and have sweat drops coming down their heads. Meanwhile we see Ash's Tyrantrum, Gyarados, Brock's Onix and Leaf's Aurorus currently giving Brock's siblings along with the other kids that live in Pallet Town a ride on their backs making the kids happy. Next, we see Ash's Rowlet, Grovyle, and Croconaw go over to Leaf's Leafeon (when Leaf was training for the league, she captured an Eevee near Celadon City and after training with it she found a Leaf Stone and evolved it), Salazzle, and Espathra they pull out roses and speak.

"Row, row" "Grov, grov" "Croc, croc" The 3 mons say asking Leafeon, Salazzle and Espathra to go out with them. Leafeon, Salazzle, and Espathra look at them and yawn before walking away. Rowlet, Grovyle, and Croconaw have shocked looks on their faces as they drop their roses on the ground. Meanwhile in the background Ash's Wartortle, Thwackey, Gengar, Gabite, and Crocalor are laughing at them. Rowlet, Grovyle, and Croconaw look at them and begin chasing them with the 5-mons running away while still laughing. Torracat looks at them and calls them idiots until Floragato appears wrapping Torracat in a hug surprising the fire cat. Torracat blushes in embarrassment but enjoys the hug while Ash's Dusk Lycanroc, Riolu, Misty's Psyduck, Slowpoke, and Leaf's Meowscarda chuckle making the fire cat annoyed as it begins chasing after them with the 5-mons running away. Everyone looks at them and begin to laugh. Leaf then sees her shiny Krookodile off to the corner standing by itself and walks over to it. Once Leaf makes it to the croc, she looks at it and speaks.

"Is something wrong Krookodile? you're missing the party" Leaf asks as Krookodile doesn't respond. Leaf thinks for a little bit then speaks.

"Oh, I get it this must seem unfamiliar to you as when you were with Giovanni you probably never did anything like this before" Leaf says with Krookodile nodding as Leaf smiles and speaks.

"Well, you're not with Giovanni anymore you're now with me and have many friends that want to have fun with you" Leaf says as her Nidoqueen, Jigglypuff, Venusaur, Dugtrio, Female Pyroar, Magnezone, Female Jellicent, Cetitan, Ribombee, Walrein, Bewear, Palossand, Drednaw, Clodsire, and Frosmoth appear. They all have smiles on their faces agreeing with Leaf. Krookodile looks at them and smiles as Leaf speaks.

"There's that smile now come on" Leaf says with Krookodile nodding as it along with Leaf's other Pokemon begin walking back to the party. 10 minutes later everyone continues to enjoy the party as we see Ash's Gyarados, Kingler, Wartortle, Froakie, Palpitoad, Croconaw, Aqua along with Misty's and Leaf's water Pokemon they're all currently relaxing/swimming in a nearby lake. Togepi's with them too but it along with Psyduck and Slowpoke are on Golisopod's head as they aren't very good at swimming. We then see Ash and Brock who're currently walking over to where their Lycanroc's, Ash's Arcanine along with Leaf's Boltund, Dachsbun, and Greavard are digging, when they reach them, Ash speaks.

"Hey, did you guys find something?" Ash asks with the 6 canines nodding they continue to dig making Brock and Ash excited as they think that there might be buried treasure. When the 6 canines are done digging, they look in the hole and see Ash's Dunsparce, Crocalor, and Rowlet all happily sleeping as Ash and Brock speak.

"Huh?" The two boys say having confused looks on their faces wondering how Rowlet and Crocalor got in the hole while the 6 canines all have smiles on their faces and let out a happy bark. A couple minutes later Ash begins watching his Pikachu and Raichu play with Leaf's Morpeko and Maushold. As he continues to watch Anabel walks over to him and speaks.


"Hi Ash" Anabel says as Ash looks at her and speaks.

"Oh, Hey Anabel how've you been?" Ash asks as Anabel speaks.

"I've been great, I just wanted to say your final battle in the league was amazing and congratulations on making it to the Top 4" Anabel says as Ash speaks.

"Thanks, it was a tough battle, but I still wished I won and made it to the finals" Ash says as Anabel speaks.

"Yeah, that's understandable but even though you didn't win the league I still thought that you looked cool" Anabel says while blushing as Ash speaks.

"Thanks" Ash responds smiling. As Ash and Anabel continue to talk, we cut over to Misty who's currently sitting at a table drinking some orange juice looking at Ash and Anabel. Misty keeps watching until someone speaks.

"You know Misty it's rude to stare" The voice says making Misty turn around as she sees her 3 sisters then she speaks.

"Oh, it's you guys" Misty says while having an unamused look on her face as Lilly speaks.

"Hey what's with that look?" Lilly asks while glaring at her, but Misty doesn't respond as Daisy speaks.

"Anyway, Misty why're you looking at Ash and Anabel? Gasp don't tell me that you're jealous" Daisy asks while having a smug look on her face making Misty blush as she quickly turns her head away and speaks.

"What're you talking about I'm not jealous Ash and Anabel are just having a friendly conversation" Misty responds as Lilly speaks.

"But your face says otherwise" Lilly responds making Misty blush more Daisy and Lilly chuckle as Violet speaks.

"Now, now I think that's enough teasing" Violet says with Daisy and Lilly nodding. Violet then walks over to Misty and speaks.

"Anyway, Misty now that the Kanto League is over what're you going to do now?" Violet asks as Misty speaks.

"What do you mean? I'm still going to travel with Ash" Misty responds as Violet speaks.

"I see but what about your goal to become a Water Pokémon Master? Will continuing to travel with Ash help you achieve that goal?" Violet asks as Misty thinks for a few seconds she looks at Violet and speaks.

"Yes, I believe so" Misty responds with Violet nodding as she speaks.

"I see well Misty it seems like you know what you're doing" Violet says with Misty nodding as Violet continues to speak.

"Now then let's talk about your relationship going forward with Ash" Violet says making Misty blush as she speaks.

"What do you mean?" Misty asks as Violet speaks.

"Well, it's obvious that you really like him, so I think it's time we give you some sisterly advice" Violet says with Daisy and Lilly nodding as Misty speaks.

"No way I can figure it out myself!" Misty says as she begins to walk away Daisy then speaks.

"You won't get away from us Misty! After her girls!" Daisy says with Violet and Lilly nodding as they begin to chase Misty with Misty running away. Ash and Anabel look at Misty and her sisters running around as he speaks.

"I wonder what's gotten into them?" Ash says with Anabel wondering the same as they hear a voice.

"Hey Ash!" The voice says making Ash and Anabel turn around once they do they see Brock running over to them. Once he makes it, he pants a little bit as Ash speaks.

"Hey Brock, what's wrong?" Ash asks as Brock speaks.

"It's your Pokémon" Brock responds making Ash curious as he, Anabel, and Brock quickly run over. When they make it, they see Ash's Pokémon in a circle looking at Charizard and Krookodile who're staring at each other with a tree stump in between them. Ash then speaks.

"What's going on?" Ash asks as Brock speaks.

"I'm not sure Krookodile asked Charizard something and they've both been staring at each other" Brock says with Ash nodding. They keep watching until Charizard and Krookodile sit down and put both of their right arms on the tree stump. Clefable then walks over and speaks.

"Clef, clef" Clefable says as both Charizard and Krookodile's right hands then grip each other as Ash speaks.

"I get it now they're going to have an arm-wrestling match" Ash says as Brock speaks.

"I see so Krookodile probably wanted to test its strength against Charizard by having an arm-wrestling match" Brock says with Ash nodding. Meanwhile back with Charizard and Krookodile the two mons continue to stare at each other until Clefable puts her right hand on top of Charizard and Krookodile's hands then speaks.

"Clef!" Clefable says telling the two mons to begin. Clefable quickly backs away as Charizard and Krookodile start their arm-wrestling match. The two mons try pushing their opponents hand down but neither's giving in as Ash's other Pokemon begin to cheer. The ones cheering for Charizard are Pikachu, Gyarados, Kingler, Dratini, Pidgeot, Raichu, Noivern, Corviknight, Flygon, Ninetales, Muk, Primeape, Torracat, Floragato, Arcanine, Rowlet, Charcadet, Blaze, Crocalor, Pyroar, Venusaur, Wartortle, Hawlucha, Hitmonlee, Scyther, Grovyle, Riolu, and Froakie. The ones cheering for Krookodile are Croconaw, Tyrantrum, Gabite, Lycanroc, Glalie, Darumaka, Tinkaton, Boldore, Palpitoad, Dunsparce, Tauros, Lee, Aqua, Luxio, Farfetch'd, Gengar, Bisharp, Heracross, and Thwackey. They all cheer loud rooting for the one they want to win while Clefable continues to watch. Charizard and Krookodile continue their match going back and forth with neither one giving in. As they keep going Krookodile starts to get the upper hand and begins to push Charizard's hand down Krookodile smiles and speaks.

"Krook" Krookodile tells Charizard that it's his victory. Krookodile keeps pushing Charizard's hand down making it so it's just inches away from touching the tree stump. Charizard doesn't want to lose as it begins putting more strength into its hand and begins pushing it back up. Charizard keeps going until its and Krookodile's hands are back in the middle. Charizard and Krookodile look at each other they grip each other's hands tighter and begin putting in more power. As they continue to put more power into their grips their elbows start to crack the tree stump, everyone continues to watch as Charizard and Krookodile then roar. The two-mons put more strength into it as Charizard starts to overpower Krookodile, Krookodile tries its best to push Charizard's hand up, but the fire lizard is too strong. Charizard keeps going until it successfully pushes Krookodile's hand down on the stump as Clefable speaks.

"Clef, Clef!" Clefable announces that Charizard's the winner as Charizard stands up and lets out a mighty roar in victory with the ones who cheered for it let out a loud cheer. Meanwhile, the humans clap as Brock speaks.

"Krookodile put up a good fight, but Charizard was stronger" Brock says with everyone nodding. Meanwhile, Krookodile's sad that it lost but the ones who cheered for it tell Krookodile that it did great with the croc nodding. Krookodile then sees Charizard standing in front of it and stands up. The two-mons stare at each other in silence for a little bit until Charizard smiles telling Krookodile that the match was fun. Charizard then points its right fist forward making Krookodile smile telling Charizard that even though he lost he had fun too. Krookodile then points its left fist forward and fist bumps Charizard. Krookodile then tells Charizard that next time it won't lose with Charizard nodding as everyone smiles. After that 10 minutes pass and everyone continues to enjoy the party. We come over to Rowlet it's currently eating a bowl of food next to Leaf's Morpeko (who's in Hangry Mode) and they're both eating fast. As Rowlet continues to eat it sees something out of the corner of its eye, Rowlet stops eating it looks to its left and sees a small metal like Pokémon with a hexagon for a head trying to climb on a tablecloth. Rowlet gets curious then flies over, once Rowlet reaches the mon the hexagon Pokémon gets a surprised look on its face as Rowlet speaks.


"Row, row" Rowlet tells the mon that it's not going to hurt it with the hexagon Pokémon nodding. Rowlet then asks if it wants the spoon as the hexagon Pokémon nods yes. Rowlet flies on the table grabs the spoon then flies back down and hands it to the hexagon Pokémon. The hexagon Pokémon has a happy look on its face and thanks Rowlet with the green owl nodding. The little hexagon then begins to eat the spoon which surprises Rowlet as it has a shocked look on its face. Once the hexagon Pokémon's done it lets out a burp, but its stomach begins to growl as it's still hungry. Rowlet looks at the mon then tells it that it'll grab some more silverware making the hexagon happy. Rowlet then starts flying around taking different kinds of silverware from the tables and bringing them to the hexagon Pokémon making it happy. As Rowlet keeps doing that Ash, Misty, and Brock look at the owl as Misty speaks.

"Why's Rowlet taking silverware?" Misty asks as Ash speaks.

"I'm not sure let's go see" Ash says with Misty and Brock nodding as they walk over to Rowlet. Meanwhile, Ash's Ninetales, Lycanroc, Arcanine, Riolu, Froakie, Muk, Dunsparce, Thwackey, Gengar, Darumaka, and Primeape along with Misty's Pokémon and Brock's Kangaskan, Vulpix, Croagunk, Alolan Golem and Lycanroc are currently playing ball. As they're playing Primeape throws the ball over to Muk but the sludge monster misses making it roll over to Tinkaton. Tinkaton looks at the ball then picks it up. She looks at her friends who're telling her to throw it back. Tinkaton nods she throws the ball over to them as Ash's Lycanroc jumps in the air and catches the ball with its mouth making everyone clap as they then tell Tinkaton to join them. Tinkaton smiles, she puts her hammer down and goes to join the others. As Tinkaton's happily playing ball 4 more Hexagon Pokémon suddenly appear they look at Tinkaton's hammer and begin to drool. We now come back to Ash, Misty, and Brock; they've made it over to Rowlet as Ash speaks.

"Hey Rowlet, why're you taking the silverware?" Ash asks as Rowlet turns to its trainer he moves to the right and showcases the hexagon Pokémon happily eating the silverware. The 3 kids have surprised looks on their faces as Misty speaks.

"Is that a Pokémon?" Misty asks as Brock speaks.

"If it is then I've never seen a Pokémon like this before" Brock says as Ash speaks.

"Maybe my Pokedex knows" Ash says as he pulls out his Pokedex to scan the mon.

"No Data" The Pokedex says as Misty speaks.

"No Data?" Misty says as Brock speaks.

"Maybe this is a new rare species of Pokémon which would explain why there's no data" Brock says as Ash speaks.

"Then that means we've just discovered a new Pokémon species Cool!" Ash says while having an excited look on his face. Ash then walks over to the little hexagon Pokémon and bends down getting on its eye level. The little hexagon stops eating and looks at Ash as the boy speaks.

"Hello there, my name's Ash Ketchum it's nice to meet you. It seems like you've a big appetite and are friends with Rowlet how about you join me?" Ash asks as he pulls out a Pokeball. The little hexagon looks at Ash it can feel that Ash's a good person, the mon then looks at Rowlet who nods. The little hexagon looks at Ash again before it gives Ash an answer someone yells.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!" The voice echoes making the group look over as Ash speaks.

"What was that?!" Ash exclaims as once he, Misty, Brock, and Rowlet turn around they see a whole bunch of hexagon Pokémon walking around happily eating everyone's silverware which shocks the 3 kids and Rowlet as Misty speaks.

"There's more of them?!" Misty exclaims as Brock speaks.

"They're everywhere" Brock says as they continue to watch they see some of the guest drop their plates letting the Pokémon eat it Leaf along with Delia, Mr. Mime, Sabrina, Anabel, Rose, Daisy, Flint, Lola, and their kids all have surprised looks on their faces as Daisy looks at her grandpa then speaks.

"Grandpa aren't these?" Daisy asks as Oak speaks.

"Yes, I believe these are-" Before Oak can finish everyone hears a loud "TINK!" Everyone looks over and see Ash's Tinkaton looking at the hexagon Pokémon chewing on her hammer. Tinkaton gets an angry look on her face (looking demonic) lets out a loud "TINKKKKKKKK!" and jumps forward. Tinkaton goes to punch the 4-hexagon mons, but they quickly move out of the way as Tinkaton punches the ground instead. Tinkaton then looks at her hammer and sees bite marks all around it. Tinkaton has tears well up in her eyes, but she quickly gets over it as she watches the hexagon Pokémon continuing to eat silverware. Tinkaton gets angry, she grips her hammer tightly then jumps forward. As Tinkaton brings her hammer down the hexagon Pokémon quickly move out of the way making Tinkaton's hammer hit the ground instead creating a crater and a large gust of wind. The wind blows away not only the hexagon Pokémon but some of the people as well, Tinkaton then begins to chase after the hexagon Pokémon with them running away as Brock speaks.

"This is bad if Tinkaton keeps going after them it'll not only hurt them but accidentally hurt people too" Brock says as Ash speaks.

"I'll stop her Gengar, Clefable, Raichu, and Noctowl use Psychic on Tinkaton to stop her!" Ash calls with the 4-mons nodding they quickly fire the psychic waves stopping Tinkaton in her tracks. Tinkaton quickly uses Foul Play easily breaking out of the Psychic and continues her pursuit of going after the hexagon Pokémon as Misty speaks.

"That didn't work" Misty says as Ash speaks.

"Okay let's try this Charizard, Gyarados, Pidgeot, Venusaur, Tyrantrum, Krookodile, Heracross, Arcanine, Primeape, Kingler, Boldore, and Muk stop Tinkaton!" Ash calls with the 12-mons nodding. Venusaur, Pidgeot, Charizard, Krookodile, Heracross, Arcanine, Muk, Kingler, Boldore, and Primeape get in Tinkaton's way going to stop her, but Tinkaton easily blows them away. Gyarados and Tyrantrum are next, they go to grab Tinkaton but the mon easily evades them. Ash's Wartortle, Tauros, Lee, Aqua, Blaze, Riolu, Froakie, Croconaw, Crocalor, Charcadet, Torracat, Lycanroc, Floragato, Thwackey, Grovyle, Scyther, Dunsparce, Darumaka, Corviknight, Bisharp, Pyroar, Farfetch'd, Hawlucha, Hitmonlee, and Ninetales try to stop Tinkaton too, but the hammer mon swings her hammer easily blowing them all away and continues going after the hexagon Pokémon destroying many tables that get in her way. Everyone continues to watch as Brock speaks.

"Tinkaton's really going on a rampage" Brock says as Misty speaks.

"She was able to knock away Ash's Pokémon is there any way to stop her?" Misty questions as Ash speaks.

"I was hoping to avoid it but looks like we'll have to use force." Ash says as he looks over at Noivern, Flygon, Gabite, and Dratini then speaks.

"Noivern, Flygon, Gabite, and Dratini use Dragon Pulse!" Ash calls the 4 dragons nod as they fire the dragon beams that combine creating a big beam. The combined Dragon Pulse crashes in front of Tinkaton creating an explosion that blows her back a few feet. Tinkaton safely lands as she's about to chase the hexagon Pokémon again Ash calls for his next command.

"Pikachu, Raichu, and Luxio use Thunderbolt!" Ash calls Pikachu, Raichu, and Luxio fire the electric bolts they combine into 1 Thunderbolt and hit Tinkaton. Tinkaton cries out in pain until there's an explosion. When the explosion clears Tinkaton's groaning in pain and drops her hammer. Once that happens Tinkaton's about to grab her hammer again, but Gyarados quickly grabs Tinkaton with his tail, Tinkaton begins thrashing about trying to get out of the hold, but Gyarados is holding on tightly as Ash speaks.

"Whew looks like that worked" Ash says with the others nodding as Misty speaks.

"Now that Tinkaton's stopped what do we do about these other hexagon Pokémon?" Misty asks as Ash speaks.

"Let's gather them together Clefable, Raichu, Gengar, and Noctowl use Psychic!" Ash calls with the 4-mons nodding they fire the psychic waves grabbing all of the hexagon Pokémon (including the one that was with Rowlet) and put them together in the center of the party. Everyone then walks over to the hexagon Pokémon as Misty speaks.

"Now that, that's over who are these Pokémon? or are they even Pokémon at all" Misty asks as Leaf speaks.

"Do you know Professor?" Leaf asks as everyone looks at the old man who's in thought. A few seconds later the old man speaks.

"To answer your question Misty these are indeed Pokémon and they're called Meltan" Oak responds making everyone confused as Brock speaks.

"Meltan? I've never heard of a Pokémon with that name before" Brock says as Ash speaks.

"Me neither and how come there's no information about them in my Pokedex?" Ash asks as Oak speaks.

"Well to answer Brock's question Meltan are Pokémon that used to live a long time ago in ancient times. And as for why there's no information about them in the Pokedex is because 1 your Pokedex needs a new update and 2 there's not much information about these Pokémon making them mythical" Oak responds with Brock and Ash nodding as Misty speaks.

"I notice that they were eating a lot of silverware" Misty says as Daisy speaks.

"Yes, if there's one thing, we know about Meltan it's that they love eating anything that's metal/steel also they're pure Steel types" Daisy says with Misty nodding as Brock speaks.

"So that explains why they were chewing on Tinkaton's hammer and the silverware because that's the kind of food they eat" Brock says with everyone nodding. They then look at the angry Tinkaton who's still trying to get out of Gyarados's hold with the sea serpent doing its best to not let go. Ash then sees how damaged Tinkaton's hammer is then sees Tinkaton having tears in her eyes. Ash then looks at the Meltan and speaks.

"Hey Meltan, I know that you were only feeding yourselves but what you did to Tinkaton was bad. That hammer is very special to Tinkaton so when you were chewing on it, it made her very sad, making her angry and chase after you. Now you wouldn't want something like that to happen to you right?" Ash says as the Meltan look at Tinkaton having tears in her eyes then look at her hammer. They then realize that if they lost their hexagon piece, they'd be sad too. The Meltan get sad looks on their faces then go over to the still thrashing Tinkaton. Tinkaton looks at them and begins yelling saying all kinds of things she keeps yelling until she sees the Meltan bend their heads down saying sorry. Tinkaton then stops thrashing as Ash speaks.

"You see Tinkaton the Meltan are very sorry that they chewed on your hammer they didn't know that it was very special to you, but they do now and won't do it again" Ash says with the Meltan nodding. Tinkaton nods then calms down. Gyarados then puts the hammer mon down as she continues to look at the Meltan then looks at her hammer. Tinkaton walks over to her hammer, picks it up and sees just how damaged it is. As Tinkaton's about to cry she hears a "Sharp" making her turn around as she sees Bisharp and Corviknight. The two-mons hand Tinkaton pieces of metal from their bodies so she can fix her hammer, Tinkaton gets a big smile on her face then hugs the two mons with Bisharp and Corviknight hugging her back as Ash speaks.

"That's great Tinkaton now you can fix your hammer" Ash says with Tinkaton nodding. Tinkaton then looks at the Meltan and walks over to them. The Meltan tell Tinkaton sorry again with Tinkaton accepting their apology and telling them sorry for chasing them making the hexagon Pokémon happy. Tinkaton then tells everyone else sorry as well with everyone nodding as Leaf speaks.

"Looks like everything's calmed down" Leaf says with everyone nodding but the calming doesn't last for long as everyone hears a loud yell.


"FEARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!" The voice yells catching everyone's attention they all look to the sky and see a horde of angry Sperow's/Fearow's. Everyone has shocked looks on their faces as Misty speaks.

"Why're these Fearow's and Sperow's here?!" Misty exclaims as Brock speaks.

"I'm not sure but they don't look happy especially the big one" Brock says with everyone nodding as they look at the big Fearow. Ash's, Misty's, Brock's, and Leaf's Pokémon quickly get into battle stances waiting to battle. As the big Fearow keeps staring another Fearow flies next to it telling its boss that it was the Meltan who hit it on the head. The big Fearow looks at the Meltan's and begins glaring at them making the hexagon Pokémon scared but Rowlet stands protectively in front of them. As the big Fearow keeps looking it then sees Ash. Once it does the big Fearow gets angrier letting out a mighty roar creating a big shockwave that almost blows everyone away, but they hold on strong. When the big Fearow's done roaring it commands its army of Sperow's and Fearow's to attack with the birds nodding. The Sperow's start firing multiple Air Slashes while the Fearow's start firing Hyper Beam's Prof. Oak then yells.

"EVERYONE LOOK OUT!" The old man yells as everyone quickly moves out of the way doing their best to dodge the attacks Sabrina then looks at Anabel and speaks.

"Anabel, we need to get the guest out of here!" Sabrina says with Anabel nodding they both glow in purple psychic energy and begin teleporting around grabbing the Pallet Town residents and taking them away from the ranch. As that's happening a Hyper Beam's about to hit a few people Delia then speaks.

"Mimey use Protect!" Delia calls Mr. Mime quickly jumps in front of the blast and summons a protective barrier blocking the attack. Delia then runs over telling the people to follow her with them nodding. When that happens Rose and Leaf command their Venusaur's to grab people with their vines bringing them to safety. A Hyper Beam heads for Misty's sisters but Misty's Golisopod quickly jumps in the way blocking the move with its arms. Golisopod along with Vaporeon fire an Ice Beam/Hydro Pump respectively at the Fearow's but the birds dodge Misty quickly runs over to her sisters and speaks.

"Are you guys okay!" Misty asks with her sisters nodding as they along with Misty and her Pokémon quickly run to safety. We then see a few Sperow's and Fearow's going to attack Brock's family as Flint's about to send out a Pokémon Brock's Onix, Croagunk, Vulpix, Kangaskan, Alolan Golem, and Midday Lycanroc appear easily knocking the birds away. Brock quickly runs over to his family telling them to follow him for safety with his family nodding. Daisy has her Aerodectyl fire a Stone Edge which knocks away some of the Fearow then has the people along with Daisy ride on its back taking them to safety. The big Fearow then looks at Ash and gets angry. It along with 11 other Fearow's quickly charge up Hyper Beams and fire them at the boy as Ash speaks.

"Pikachu, Raichu use Thunderbolt, Gyarados, Wartortle, Kingler use Hydro Pump, Pidgeot use Air Slash, Clefable use Moonblast, Venusaur use Solarbeam, Charizard use Flamethrower, Ninetales use Ice Beam and Muk, Gengar use Sludge Bomb!" Ash calls the 12-mons roar and fire their moves at the incoming Hyper Beams. The moves collide creating a big explosion that causes the whole area to shake. When the shaking stops out of the explosion comes the big Fearow it heads for Ash using Drill Peck as Ash speaks.

"Primeape Ice Punch, Hitmonlee Blaze Kick, and Farfetch'd use Night Slash!" Ash calls the 3 mons appear and counter Fearow. The big Fearow tries to push the 3 fighting types away, but they stand their ground as they keep pushing each other back and forth they eventually back away from each other with the big Fearow flying back in the air and continues staring at Ash. Misty, Brock, and Leaf quickly run over to Ash once they're close enough Misty speaks.

"That Fearow doesn't seem to like you Ash" Misty says as Leaf speaks.

"Yeah, did you do something to it?" Leaf asks but Ash doesn't know. Ash then looks at the bird as he continues to look he gets a feeling of familiarity. That's when Ash gets a memory of the day his journey started, he remembers throwing a rock at a Sperow that was about to eat Caterpie. Once Ash remembers he then speaks.

"This Fearow I knew it felt familiar" Ash says as Brock speaks.

"So, you do know this Fearow?" Brock asks as Ash speaks.

"Yeah, on the first day of my journey I remember throwing a rock at a Sperow making it mad as it called its friends to chase me and Pikachu" Ash responds as Misty speaks.

"You mean to tell us that, that's the same Sperow?" Misty asks with Ash nodding he along with everyone else continue to look at the bird with the bird along with its army looking back as Leaf speaks.

"Well Ash you're not alone this time let's work together and defeat it" Leaf says as Brock speaks.

"Yeah, everyone else has made it to safety so we can help you out" Brock says as he, Misty, and Leaf get ready Ash speaks.

"I appreciate the help guys, but can you let me do this?" Ash asks, surprising his friends as Misty speaks.

"Ash, do you know what you're saying?! that's an army of Sperow and Fearow" Misty says as Leaf speaks.

"Yeah, Ash there's no way you can do it by yourself" Leaf says as Ash speaks.

"True but I'm not by myself I've my Pokémon with me and we'll drive them away right guys!" Ash responds as all his Pokémon let out a roar in agreement. Misty, Leaf, and Brock look at them then back at Ash as Brock speaks.

"Ash are you sure about this?" Brock asks as Ash speaks.

"Yes" Ash responds having a determined look on his face the 3 kids continue to look at Ash then smile as Brock speaks.

"Well Ash if you're confident that you can win then I trust that you know what you're doing" Brock says as Leaf speaks.

"Yeah, Ash kick their butts!" Leaf cheers as Misty speaks.

"Just don't be too reckless okay" Misty says with Ash nodding as he speaks.

"Yeah, I'll be careful now you guys' better go join the others" Ash says with the 3 kids nodding as they along with their Pokémon quickly go to where everyone else is. Once they make it Delia looks at them and speaks.

"Wait where's Ash?" Delia asks as Misty speaks.

"He said that he's going to take care of the Spearow's and Fearow's by himself" Misty responds shocking the woman and everyone else as Delia speaks.

"What?! there's no way Ash can do it by himself we need to help him" Delia says as Misty speaks.

"But Ash isn't by himself, he has his Pokémon with him and is confident that he can stop them" Misty says Delia looks into Misty's eyes then looks at Brock and Leaf who've the same look. Oak then puts a hand on Delia's shoulder the woman looks at him as he speaks.

"Let's let Ash handle this" Oak says as Delia then looks at Rose, Sabrina, Anabel, Flint, Lola, and Misty's sisters who have the same look. Delia nods then looks back to where Ash is and speaks.

"Ash be careful" Delia says to herself as back at the ranch Ash along with his Pokémon continue to stare at the flying types Ash looks at the big Fearow and speaks.


"When I first started my journey, I wasn't strong enough to face you then and ran. But I'm not the same trainer as before I've grown a lot stronger, captured many Pokémon and made many friends. So, I'm not going to run away this time I'M GOING TO FIGHT!" Ash states he turns his hat backwards as all of his Pokemon let out a mighty roar. The big Fearow roars too and commands his army of Spearow and Fearow to attack with the Fearow's firing multiple Hyper Beams as Ash calls for his commands.

"Torracat, Pyroar, Crocalor, Charcadet, and Arcanine use Flamethrower! Croconaw, Palpitoad, and Aqua use Hydro Pump!" Ash calls the 8-mons fire their moves that collide with the Hyper Beams and create an explosion. Out of the explosion appears Pidgeot, Noctowl, Corviknight, Hawlucha, Heracross, Scyther, Noivern, Flygon, Gabite, Gengar, Raichu, and Glalie. They head for the Sperow's and Fearow's as Ash calls for his commands.

"Pidgeot, Corviknight, Scyther, and Hawlucha, use Aerial Ace! Noctowl use Hypnosis then Air Slash! Heracross use Mega Horn! Noivern, Flygon, and Gabite use Dragon Rush! Gengar use Psychic, Glalie use Ice Beam, and Raichu use Thunderbolt!" Ash calls as the 11-mons roar Pidgeot, Corviknight, Scyther, and Hawlucha speed up hitting multiple Sperow's and Fearow's making them fall out of the sky landing on the ground knocked out. Noctowl fires the Hypnotic waves putting multiple Sperow's and Fearow's to sleep. Noctowl then fires multiple slashes of wind that hit the birds and easily knocks them out. Heracross's horn glows in green bug energy and easily defeats multiple Fearow. Noivern, Flygon, and Gabite roar as they cover their bodies in dragon energy and fly forward. The Fearow's fire multiple Air Slashes at them but the 3 dragons easily pass through them and hit 5 Fearow's easily defeating them. A few Sperow's and Fearow's head for Gengar going to use Drill Peck but Gengar fires the psychic waves catching the birds and holds them in place. The Spearow's and Fearow's try to break free but are unable to as Glalie and Raichu fire an Ice beam and Thunderbolt respectively hitting the birds and easily knocking them out. Multiple Sperow's along with a Fearow head for the Meltan, the Fearow goes to hit the Meltan with Drill Peck making the Hexagon Pokémon scared as Ash speaks.

"Rowlet use Tackle!" Ash calls Rowlet instantly appears on Fearow's left side and kicks it hard in the face with its right foot. The Fearow is kicked a few feet away landing on the ground, a couple seconds later the Fearow stands up and looks at Rowlet who's standing protectively over the Meltan. The Meltan look at Rowlet as the green owl looks at them and smiles making the Meltan happy. The Fearow then roars commanding the Sperow's to attack with the birds nodding as they go to attack Rowlet. The green owl looks at the Sperow's and gets ready to battle until Pikachu, Kingler, Luxio, Pyroar, Lycanroc, Torracat, Bisharp, Charcadet Floragato, Grovyle, Thwackey, Hitmonlee, Tinkaton, Darumaka, Dunsparce, Heracross, Crocalor, Croconaw, Farfetch'd, Dratini, Riolu, and Froakie appear. They all easily knock the Sperow's away standing alongside Rowlet and the Meltan making them happy. Ash looks at them and smiles he then turns his head back to the battle he sees a few Fearow's flying forward using Brave Bird and calls for his commands.

"Tauros, Lee, Blaze, Aqua, use Raging Bull and Arcanine use Raging Fury!" Ash calls as the 5-mons roar and run forward. Tauros covers its body in white, Lee covers its body in orange, Blaze along with Arcanine cover their bodies in fire, and Aqua covers its body in water. They then jump high in the air clashing with their respective Fearow's and easily knock them away making the birds spin out of control as Ash speaks.

"Great job!" Ash cheers with the 5-mons nodding. The big Fearow gets mad and commands its army to launch a combine hurricane. The Spearow's and Fearow's nod they begin flapping their wings fast creating a giant Hurricane that heads for Ash and his Pokémon as Ash speaks.

"Gyarados use Hurricane!" Ash calls Gyarados lets out a mighty roar creating a giant Hurricane of its own. The 2 Hurricanes clash they begin fighting back and forth for a little bit until Gyarados's Hurricane destroys the other one and heads for the Spearow's and Fearow's. The birds quickly fly away trying to get away from the Hurricane but some of them get sucked inside and begin spinning out of control until the Hurricane disappears making the birds fall on the ground. Ash, along with his Pokémon cheer making the big Fearow angry as it roars commanding a few Fearow's to fire a Tri Attack. The 5 Fearow's nod they fire the beams of Fire, Ice, and Lightning as Ash speaks.

"Krookodile, Tyrantrum, Boldore use Stone Edge! Palpitoad, Wartortle use Hydro Pump! Clefable, Ninetales use Ice Beam! And Venusaur, Muk use Sludge Bomb!" Ash calls the 9-mons roar firing their moves that easily destroy the Tri Attack's and hit the Fearow's creating multiple explosion's as they all fall to the ground. After that Ash's Pokémon continue to battle the army of Spearow's and Fearow's. We see the fire types (along with Dratini) firing Flamethrowers, the water types firing Hydro Pumps, Venusaur firing Razor Leaf's, Grovyle using Leaf Blade, Thwackey using Wood Hammer, Rowlet using Aerial Ace, and Floragato using her grassy yo-yo easily blowing the birds away. We also see the rock types (along with Dunsparce, Flygon, and Krookodile) firing Stone Edges, the ice types (along with Clefable) firing ice beams/Blizzards, the poison types firing Sludge Bombs, the dragon types firing Dragon Pulses, the flying types using Aerial Ace/Air Slash and the fighting types punching/kicking the Sperow's and Fearow's. Kingler uses Liquidation to defeat multiple Fearow's. Torracat fires a large Fire Blast defeating multiple Fearow's too. Farfetch'd and Tinkaton use Brutal Swing they spin around and easily knock away multiple Spearow's. Gyarados along with Tyrantrum use Dragon Tail which knocks out more of the birds and Pikachu, Raichu, and Luxio fire Thunderbolts easily knocking out the birds. Tinkaton also launches Riolu and Froakie in the air with her hammer allowing the two mons to uppercut a Fearow with Power-Up-Punch and Aerial Ace respectively. The two mons look at each other and smile while doing a thumbs up. After that 2 Fearow's head for Riolu and Froakie the 2 mons look forward and have worried expressions on their faces. As the 2 Fearow's are about to hit them Noivern along with Hawlucha easily knock the 2 birds away with Dragon Rush and High Jump Kick respectively. Riolu and Froakie thank them with the 2-mons nodding Noivern then safely puts them back on the ground then flies back in the air continuing to fight the Spearow's and Fearow's. The big Fearow continues to watch its army getting defeated it sees the numbers continuing to fall making the bird mad. The big Fearow looks at Ash and lets out a mighty roar then flies at Ash using Aerial Ace. Ash sees the bird going to him but before it does Charizard quickly gets in the way and uses Fire Punch colliding with the Fearow. Charizard and Fearow begin pushing each other back and forth seeing who's stronger they keep going until they both roar creating an explosion. Charizard and the big Fearow then fly in the air when they get high enough, they stop and begin glaring at each other as Ash speaks.

"Charizard use Flamethrower!" Ash calls Charizard heats up its mouth and fires the stream of fire. It goes to hit Fearow but the bird roars and fires a big Hyper Beam that easily destroys Charizard's Flamethrower and goes to hit Charizard as Ash speaks.

"Charizard dodge!" Ash calls Charizard quickly moves to the right avoiding the beam as it keeps going until it hits another area of the ranch creating an explosion which scares the nearby Pokémon. The area that Fearow's Hyper Beam hit begins to catch fire which shocks Ash along with his Pokémon as Ash speaks.

"Wartortle, Palpitoad, Kingler, Croconaw, and Aqua use Hydro Pump to put out the fire!" Ash calls with the 5-mons nodding they quickly run over to the area and start firing Hydro Pump's easily getting rid of the fire. Heracross, Hitmonlee, Bisharp, Primeape, Arcanine, Tyrantrum, Venusaur, Tauros, Lee, Blaze, and Boldore also manage to save the nearby Pokémon too. The big Fearow then commands some other Fearow's to fire more Hyper Beams in that area, they quickly charge up the beams and fire them as Ash speaks.

"Oh no you don't! Gyarados use Hyper Beam then fly in the air!" Ash calls Gyarados roars it fires its own Hyper Beam which clashes with the Fearow's and easily destroys them. As Gyarados's Hyper Beam is about to hit the Fearow's the birds manage to dodge in time, Gyarados then begins to fly in the air. The Spearow's and Fearow's have shocked looks on their faces as the Fearow's who fired the Hyper Beams begin flying away with Gyarados chasing after them. Ash along with his Pokémon laugh while this makes the big Fearow angry it lets out a mighty roar and flies at Charizard using Aerial Ace as Ash speaks.

"Charizard use Thunder Punch!" Ash calls Charizard quickly covers its right fist in electricity and goes to collide with the Fearow. As the two mons are about to collide the big Fearow's body glows in a golden aura as it's now using Sky Attack surprising Ash. Fearow and Charizard collide Charizard tries his best to push Fearow away, but Fearow manages to knock Charizard away making it spin out of control. The big Fearow then heads for Ash going to hit him as his friend's yell.

"ASH!" Misty, Brock, Delia, Leaf, Rose, Oak, Daisy, Sabrina, Anabel, Brock's family, and Misty's sisters exclaim. They all watch as they see Fearow about to hit Ash, but something gets in the way creating an explosion causing the whole area to shake. When the shaking stops out of the explosion comes Fearow it looks downward as when the explosion clears it sees that Ash isn't there. The big Fearow has a surprised look on its face as it hears a voice.


"Over here!" The voice says Fearow turns around and sees Ash riding on top of Pidgeot. Ash's friends have relieved looks on their faces as Ash looks at Pidgeot and speaks.

"Thanks, Pidgeot" Ash says with the bird nodding Fearow has an angry look on its face and roars as it fires a large Hyper Beam that heads for Ash and Pidgeot Ash quickly calls for a command.

"Noivern use Boomburst and Flygon use Dragon Pulse!" Ash calls the 2 dragons roar as they fire their respective moves and collide with the Hyper Beam creating an explosion. Out of the explosion appears Ash's Corviknight it heads for Fearow as Ash speaks.

"Corviknight use Giga Impact!" Ash calls Corviknight covers its body in an orange sphere with purple streaks and heads for Fearow. The big Fearow roars it flies forward using Giga Impact too and collides with Corviknight. The 2 mons begin pushing each other back and forth with neither one wanting to lose. They keep going until they back away from each other as Ash speaks.

"Hawlucha use Brick Break, Scyther use Slash, Noctowl use Hypnosis, Glalie use Ice Beam, and Gabite use Dragon Rush!" Ash calls Hawlucha and Scyther appear in front of Fearow they go to chop/slash it but Fearow dodges. Noctowl gets in front of Fearow and fires the hypnotic waves, but Fearow manages to move out of the way. Glalie fires the icy beam but Fearow dodges that too, Gabite appears on Fearow's left side and goes to hit it, but Fearow quickly flies upward avoiding the attack as Ash speaks.

"Now Charizard use Fire Punch!" Ash calls as Charizard appears above Fearow covers its left fist in fire and punches the bird hard on the head causing damage as Ash calls for his next command.

"Now Pidgeot use Quick Attack!" Ash calls Pidgeot shoots forward and hits Fearow's stomach making it cough in pain as it's sent flying back a few feet away then stops itself. Fearow groans in pain but then glares at Ash, Pidgeot, and Charizard as Ash speaks.

"Man, it's tough" Ash says to himself. Meanwhile on the ground we see the rest of Ash's Pokémon dealing with the Spearow and Fearow. We see Lycanroc and Torracat knocking a few away with Stone Edge and Flamethrower. Dratini, Riolu, and Froakie are firing multiple Dragon Pulses, Aura Sphere's, and Water Pulses. As Ash's Pokémon keep battling, we see Rowlet kick another Spearow away making the Meltan smile thanking Rowlet. Rowlet looks at the Meltan and smiles, but its smile instantly goes away as it then gets blindsided from the Fearow it hit earlier who's using Brave Bird. Rowlet coughs in pain as it's then sent crashing on the ground a few feet away. The Meltan, Ash's Pokemon, and Ash have surprised looks on their faces as Ash speaks.

"Rowlet!" Ash calls in worry back on the ground Rowlet's groaning in pain it then sees the Fearow standing over it and begins to spin its beak. The Fearow goes to hit Rowlet with Drill Peck as Ash yells.

"Rowlet!" Ash calls in worry his other Pokémon are about to go help the owl, but the Sperow and Fearow get in the way blocking their path making Ash's Pokémon angry as they continue to battle them. Meanwhile the Meltan's look on in horror as the Fearow's spinning beak's about to hit Rowlet the Meltan that Rowlet was with earlier gets a determined look on its face. Meltan quickly jumps forward and gets in front of Fearow. Rowlet tells Meltan to run away but the hexagon Pokémon declines, the Fearow then goes to hit Meltan. As its spinning beak is about to hit Meltan the hexagon Pokémon fires a large Flash Cannon that consumes the Fearow. The Fearow is blown a few feet away then crashes on the ground landing on its back. Everyone have surprised looks on their faces as Meltan looks at Rowlet asking if it's okay with Rowlet nodding and telling Meltan thank you. This makes the hexagon Pokémon happy as it begins to hug the owl with its hexagon head spinning which hurts Rowlet a little bit. The rest of the Meltan have surprised looks on their faces they weren't expecting their friend to do that, but this also gives them the courage to fight as they all get serious looks on their faces and begin sparking their bodies as Ash speaks.

"Is that" Before Ash can say anything the other Meltan's fire multiple Thunder Shock's which shocks multiple Sperow and Fearow causing super effective damage and easily knocking them out. Ash along with his Pokémon have smiles on their faces as he speaks.

"Thank you Meltan okay everyone let's go!" Ash cheers as his Pokémon along with the Meltan let out a mighty roar and continue their fight with the Spearow's and Fearow's. As they continue to fight the number of the Sperow's and Fearow's begin to drop faster thanks to the help of the Meltan. The big Fearow has an angry look on its face it heads for Ash using Aerial Ace as Ash speaks.

"Dodge Pidgeot!" Ash calls Pidgeot quickly flies up dodging the Fearow. But Fearow quickly turns around and heads back for them as Ash speaks.

"Pidgeot use your Aerial Ace!" Ash calls Pidgeot roars as it flies forward and collides with the Fearow. The two birds push each other back and forth for a little bit until Pidgeot manages to push Fearow away making it spin out of control as Ash calls for his next command.

"Now Charizard use Flamethrower!" Ash calls Charizard fires the stream of fire Fearow notices as it quickly stops itself and flies in the air as Ash calls for his next commands.

"Now Hawlucha use High Jump Kick, Scyther use Aerial Ace, and Glalie use Gyro Ball!" Ash calls as the 3 mons shoot downward and hit Fearow hard on the head. The big Fearow then crashes back down on the ground creating a dust cloud. A few seconds later the big Fearow appears from the dust letting out a mighty roar it then fires a large Hyper Beam that heads for Ash and Pidgeot as Ash speaks.

"Charizard Overheat and Gyarados Hyper Beam!" Ash calls Charizard and Gyarados roar as they fire their moves. The Overheat and Hyper Beam mix together becoming a big beam that easily destroys Fearow's Hyper Beam it goes to hit Fearow but the bird quickly flies in the air dodging the attack as when the move lands it creates a big explosion. Once Fearow's back in the air Ash calls for his next command.

"Okay Pidgeot use Brave Bird!" Ash calls with Pidgeot roaring as it begins to go faster with Ash holding on tightly. Pidgeot covers its body in flames then becomes a shiny blue and hits Fearow's chest making it cough in pain as it's then sent a few feet away. When Fearow stops itself, it looks at Pidgeot and sees it taking some recoil damage. As Fearow goes to fire a Hyper Beam it feels something on its back it looks and sees Pikachu sparking its cheeks as Ash speaks.

"Pikachu use Thunder times 5!" Ash calls Pikachu lets out a loud "PIKA!" and summons 5 large Thunders that hit Fearow and begin shocking it. Fearow cries out in pain until there's an explosion, Fearow then appears from the explosion and begins falling towards the ground. Pikachu begins to fall too but Charizard manages to let Pikachu land on its back. The yellow mouse tells Charizard thank you with the fire lizard nodding, Charizard then flies next to Pidgeot and lets Pikachu jump onto Ash's shoulder making the boy happy. After that the big Fearow falls on the ground landing on its back groaning in pain. The big bird lifts up its head then opens its eyes. Once it does, Fearow can see that its whole army of Sperow and Fearow have been defeated it then sees Ash along with his Pokémon standing over the bird looking at it. Ash gets off Pidgeot's back telling Pidgeot thank you with the bird nodding. Ash straightens his hat then walks a couple steps forward until he's close enough to Fearow. Ash then takes out a Pokeball once he does Fearow begins to growl at him. Ash's Pokémon get ready, but Ash holds his hand out to them telling them to stop with his Pokémon nodding. Ash continues to look at Fearow then puts his Pokeball away as he begins to speak.

"That look that you're giving me says that you don't want me to catch you right?" Ash asks with Fearow nodding as Ash speaks.

"Yeah, I thought so" Ash says as he continues to speak.

"Hey Fearow, I just wanted to say I'm sorry for hitting you with a rock back then. I was just beginning my journey and didn't know any better, but I knew that I couldn't let you eat Caterpie even though you were hungry" Ash says apologetically Fearow continues to look at Ash and can see that he's being genuine as Ash continues to speak.

"Also, I'm not sure what the Meltan did to make you go after them but they're also sorry" Ash says as the Meltan appear and say sorry too. Fearow looks at them and sees that they're truly sorry as Ash continues to speak.

"I have to say Fearow you're a really strong Pokémon I would love to have you on my team, but I get the feeling that you wouldn't be happy being with me but would rather be with the rest of the Sperow and Fearow you're with and continuing to live in the wild." Ash says with Fearow nodding making Ash smile as he continues to speak.

"Anyway, Fearow again I'm really sorry for what happened before, even though you along with your army attacked us I forgive you as you were just doing what you thought was right. Lastly even though I'm not catching you I hope that we can become friends" Ash says having a smile on his face with his Pokémon smiling too. Fearow looks at Ash it's surprised that Ash along with his Pokémon forgive it even though it along with its army attacked them. Fearow continues to look at Ash and his Pokémon then nods. The big Fearow then stands up as it along with its army apologize too making Ash along with his Pokémon happy. Once that's over Fearow along with its army get ready to leave as they're about too Ash speaks.

"Hey Fearow whenever we see each other again let's have a battle" Ash says having a determined look on his face with his Pokémon having the same look. Fearow along with its army look at them and smile/nod. The big Fearow along with its army look forward as they begin to fly in the air heading out of Pallet Town and going in the direction of Viridian Forest. Ash along with his Pokémon wave them goodbye until they can't see them anymore. Once they're gone Ash turns to his Pokémon and speaks.

"We did it guys we drove the Fearow and Spearow away and protected Prof. Oak's lab!" "Pika!" Ash and Pikachu let out a cheer as all his Pokémon (including the Meltan) happily roar in celebration. Meanwhile, in the place where Misty and the others are they're amazed that Ash and his Pokémon drove the Fearow and Spearow away as Leaf speaks.

"I was worried a few times, but Ash managed to do it" Leaf says as Daisy speaks.

"I'm surprised that Ash didn't catch that big Fearow it would've been a strong Pokémon to have" Daisy says as Brock speaks.

"Ash knew that Fearow wouldn't be happy with him, so he decided to let it live on as a wild Pokémon" Brock says with the others nodding as Delia speaks.

"That's my Ash for ya" Delia says with the group nodding as Lilly whispers into Misty's ear.

"I can see why you like him" Lilly says making Misty blush she looks at her sisters who're chuckling. Misty's about to respond but sighs as she looks back at Ash celebrating with his Pokémon and smiles. Meanwhile Anabel speaks.

"Ash's amazing" Anabel says to herself while having a big blush on her face. After that everyone leaves the shelter and run over to Ash and his Pokémon congratulating them. Everyone then begins to help with the cleanup the Meltan help too. 1 hour later when the clean ups over Prof. Oak speaks.


"Well, that was certainly exciting I wasn't expecting Meltan along with an army of Sperow and Fearow to appear but thankfully nobody got hurt" Oak says with everyone nodding as Oak continues to speak.

"Now then let's all give a round of applause to Ash and his Pokémon for helping protect the lab, us, and the Pokémon that live here!" Oak says as he along with everyone else begin clapping and cheering for Ash and his Pokémon. Ash along with his Pokémon have smiles on their faces as Oak continues to speak.

"Now with that out of the way let's continue with the party!" Oak says with everyone cheering as they go back to enjoying themselves. Ash then looks over at the Meltan he then looks at Prof. Oak and speaks.

"Hey Prof. Oak, what's going to happen to the Meltan?" Ash asks as Oak speaks.

"Hmmm? Oh, you don't need to worry about them Ash as they're going to be staying with us" Prof. Oak says as Daisy speaks.

"Yeah, we've a storage room with many machines that we don't use anymore we think that it's going to be the perfect place for the Meltan as they'll have an endless supply of food, and it'll allow us to study them" Daisy says as Oak speaks.

"Not only that but your Clefable also decided that it wants to help take care of the Meltan it seems like it's grown a soft spot for them" Oak says as they look over at Clefable happily playing with the hexagon Pokémon as Ash speaks.

"Wow that's amazing" Ash says with the two adults nodding. As everyone continues to enjoy themselves at the party Ash notices that there's one Meltan that's close to Rowlet and has been with it ever since the clean up Ash then walks over to them. Once Ash gets close enough the owl and hexagon look at Ash as the boy bends down, he looks at Meltan and speaks.

"Hey Meltan, you really like Rowlet huh?" Ash asks with Meltan nodding as it continues to hug the owl making Rowlet happy. Ash looks at them and smiles he then pulls out a Pokeball and speaks.

"I already asked you this before but if it's okay with you can I catch you?" Ash asks Meltan continues to look at Ash as Ash continues to speak.

"You see I figured that if I catch you, you'll be able to spend as much time as you want with Rowlet I also saw you protecting Rowlet by firing that big Flash Cannon and I just knew that you would be a great Pokémon for my team. So, what do you say?" Ash asks Meltan looks at Ash then looks back at Rowlet who smiles. Meltan looks at Ash again and nods making Ash happy as he speaks.

"Great let's work hard together from now on Meltan" Ash says with Meltan nodding Ash points the ball forward as Meltan taps it. The Pokeball shakes a couple times until it dings confirming the capture Ash gets a big smile on his face and speaks.

"I Just Caught a Meltan!" Ash cheers along with his Pokémon as Leaf speaks.

"Hey, no fair I want to catch a mythical Pokémon too!" Leaf says while pouting as Ash speaks.

"Well, we have a lot of Meltan so why don't you ask them" Ash says as Leaf quickly runs over to the other Meltan asking them to join her but they all decline making Leaf sad while everyone else laugh. Ash then sends Meltan back out, it lands on the ground then looks at Ash as the boy speaks.

"Thanks for joining me Meltan" Ash says happily with Meltan nodding it then goes over to Rowlet and climbs on the top of its head. Rowlet then goes to sleep with Meltan doing the same everyone looks at them having smiles on their faces. After that a few hours passed and everyone continued having fun at the party, playing many games, and eating a lot of food. Tinkaton was able to get her hammer fixed thanks to Corviknight, Bisharp, and Meltan. Also, during this time Ash's Wartortle, Krookodile, Croconaw, Crocalor, Thwackey and Misty's Quaxly put on a show for everyone by singing, rapping, and dancing. Leaf's Krookodile got on stage and joined in on the rapping too which surprised everyone. Leaf's Obstagoon got on stage too and started to sing. Leaf's Jigglypuff tried to join in on the singing, but Leaf's Nidoqueen stopped her saying that she'll put everyone except her to sleep making Jigglypuff pout causing everyone to laugh. As everyone continued to enjoy themselves it was time for everyone to leave. The Pallet Town residents left first, then Rose and Leaf as Rose ate/drank too much and got a stomachache, so Leaf had to take her home. The next ones to leave were Brock's family and Misty's sisters, Sabrina and Anabel safely teleported them back to their homes. The next ones to leave are Sabrina and Anabel as Sabrina speaks.

"Thank you for inviting us to the party it was fun" Sabrina says with Anabel agreeing as Delia speaks.

"We're happy that you two had fun and you're both welcome to come back at any time" Delia says with Sabrina and Anabel nodding. Anabel then walks over to Ash once she's close enough Anabel looks at Ash and speaks.

"Hey Ash, I just wanted to say the party was fun and you looked really cool when you were battling the Spearow and Fearow you've a strong bond with all of your Pokémon" Anabel says making Ash smile as he speaks.

"Thanks Anabel it was great seeing you again too" Ash says having a smile on his face with Anabel smiling/blushing as Misty looks over at them. After that Sabrina and Delia hugged, then Sabrina and Anabel teleport making it back to Saffron City. Once they're gone Ash lets out a big yawn as Brock speaks.

"Tired?" Brock asks with Ash nodding as Misty speaks.

"It only makes since not only did you have an intense battle, but you also used up a lot of energy at the party" Misty says with Ash nodding as Delia speaks.

"Well then let's all head home and get some rest" Delia suggests with the 3 trainers nodding Ash then looks over at his Pokémon and speaks.

"Hey guys I'll come back to visit tomorrow and have a good night" Ash says with his Pokémon nodding as they except for Pikachu, Raichu, Rowlet, Meltan, Floragato, Lycanroc, Torracat, Riolu, and Froakie leave heading to their own areas to rest. Once they're gone Ash looks at Prof. Oak, Daisy and the other Meltan then speaks.

"Thanks again for the party Prof. Oak and Ms. Daisy and have a goodnight" Ash says with the two Oak's nodding as they along with the Meltan wave Ash, Misty, Brock, Delia, Mr. Mime, Pikachu, Rowlet (Meltan's on Rowlet's head), Floragato, Lycanroc, Torracat, Riolu, and Froakie goodbye and goodnight. Once they're gone Daisy takes the other Meltan to the storage room that has an endless supply of metals/steel making the hexagon Pokémon happy as they begin to eat it making Daisy smile. We then see Prof. Oak, he's in his lab sitting in a chair, he lets out a yawn then speaks.

"Boy that certainly was an exhausting but fun day" Oak says to himself as he's about to go to his room to sleep he sees that he's got an email message on his computer and speaks.

"A message? And it looks like it's from Prof. Ivy in the Orange Island's" Oak says he then opens the letter and begins reading it. As he's reading, he gets a curious look on his face and speaks.

"A Pokeball that won't open called the GS ball?" Oak says to himself he then lets out another yawn and speaks.

"Well, I'll give her a call in the morning" Oak says to himself as he along with Daisy go to their rooms to go asleep. Meanwhile high in the night sky we see the invisible ship at the beginning of the chapter flying through the air. Inside we see the two henchmen from earlier they're currently in a room and are in front of a woman with grey hair and has a serious look on her face as the woman speaks.


"So, the reason you idiots threw out the Mystery Box was because you thought it was empty?" The woman asks with the men nodding as Man 2 speaks.

"Yes, Madam we're very sorry we'll accept any punishment" Man 2 says with Man 1 nodding as they get on one knee and begin sweating profusely. The woman looks at them having a serious look on her face the two men continue to sweat more as the woman lets out a sigh and speaks.

"Well, there's nothing that we can do about it now we're already far away from the place you threw it out from, besides the person that was going to pay us for the box is already in jail anyway so we wouldn't receive payment for it" The woman says with the two men nodding as the woman continues to speak.

"But if you do something like this again without coming to me first, I'll make sure you suffer a harsh punishment, do I make myself clear?" The woman asks with the 2 men nodding as she speaks.

"Good now get out of my sight you're getting sweat all over my clean floor" The woman says with the 2 men nodding as they quickly leave the room. Once they're gone another man looks at the woman and speaks.

"Was letting them off with a warning good enough?" The man asks as the woman speaks.

"Yes, I'm confident that they'll be more careful from now on" The woman responds with the man nodding as she continues to speak.

"So how long until we reach the Orange Islands?" The woman asks as the man speaks.

"We should be there in a few hours Madam Hunter J" The man responds as J smiles and speaks.

"Good" J says she then puts on a pair of goggles and continues looking out the window as the chapter comes to an end.

Thank you for reading if you've made it this far. Here it is the first chapter of the Orange Island arc where Meltan and Hunter J got introduced and my take on the Pallet Town Party Panic tell me what did you guys think? I decided to have Meltan come early because it felt right for Ash to have Meltan now. As for Hunter J she'll play a big role in this arc and give the gang a lot of trouble in the future.

Also, I didn't have Ash catch Fearow as Ash already has enough flying types for now and I've other captures planned for Ash in this arc.

Next chapter will come out next week it'll mainly focus on the gang finally reviving their Galar fossils, learn about the GS Ball and begin their adventure to the Orange Islands I hope you all look forward to it.

Next Time Chapter 67: Galar Fossils and a New Adventure.

See you all next time!
