"I see you all made in one piece," said a man by the name of Professor Rowan as he looked at the three people that walked into the lab with a small smile on his face. The three that have made it were a boy named Ash Ketchum, a girl named Dawn Hikari and an older boy by the name of Brock Takeshi. They were in the Sinnoh Region and in the town of Sandgem.
Ash originally came in Sinnoh after finishing his journey in Hoenn, participating in the Evergrande League until losing to a man by the name of Tyson and beating the head of the Battle Frontier, Brandon, to continue his search to become the very best like no one ever was and to find a massive amount of new Pokemon. He came with his trusty Pikachu on his side and an Aipom that snuck onto the boat.
When he came to Sinnoh he called Professor Samuel Oak which then resulted in Team Rocket trying their best to catch Pikachu, but failed once they started to gloat once more. He met up with Brock (who was driving along with a girl that went to see her boyfriend), caught a Starly and met a dude with an Elekid that released his 2 of the 3 Starlys for the reason that they didn't know Aerial Ace.
Brock and Ash then met up with Dawn (Who is a new trainer from Twinleaf Town that had her first Pokemon of Piplup and whom found Pikachu while he was injured) as James, Jessie and Meowth had a weird machine, which Ash managed to destroy making good work of his athletic skills as they blasted off again for the 3rd time in one day.
"Obviously! That was nothing compared to what we went through, ain't that right Pikachu?" asked Ash, with his clothes torn up.
Pikachu happily yelled, "Pika!"
"I have to agree with him, Professor," said Brock, "He could withstand the might of a Charizard's Flamethrower on the daily. A machine from Team Rocket won't keep him down."
"You know it." said Ash as he and Brock fist bumped each other.
"If that was nothing compared to what you two could handle, then I would love to see what you would consider tough." said Dawn as Piplup turned to his trainer in shock.
"Hmm, interesting. Well, Aipom's Poke Ball is not the only thing that either your mother or Professor Oak sent me, in fact, your mother sent me a new set of clothes that might be to your liking." said Rowan as he then began to walk into his office where the package was in, which hyped Ash as his Hoenn clothes were torn up from the explosion.
While he walked towards the package, he then heard a scientist burst through the door to his office, "PROFESSOR ROWAN! WE HAVE MASSIVE NEWS! GROUDON SIZED NEWS!" yelled the scientist as Rowan raised a brow hearing that.
"Yes? What is it?" asked Rowan as the scientist fixed his glasses.
"Well, remember the new set of Pokedexes that Alola uses? Where they use their unique designed Pokedex and fused it with the power of a Rotom in which it becomes sentient?" asked the scientist as Rowan sighed.
"I remember, you don't have to remind me. The news of the types of Pokedexes shocked the world, so how on Earth wouldn't I remember that?" asked Rowan as once the news spread like wildfire, he, along with Samuel Oak, Cerise, Elm, Birch, Juniper, Sycamore, Kukui and Magnolia were tasked into creating a new type of Pokedex that was like the one in Alola where it fused a Rotom into it so that it could act like a perfect Pokedex for anyone to use.
"They have came! The newly created Pokedex has finally came into fruition!" yelled the scientist as Rowan gasped hearing that.
"Are you being serious?!" yelled Rowan as the scientist nodded.
"I am! They finalized everything! From the function, to how it looks and how it is made!" yelled the scientist as he heard that Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, Kalos and Galar have gotten their newly acquired Pokedex for everyone to use, even those with limited knowledge of Pokemon.
"Are you a Slowpoke?! Place the package onto the table!" yelled Rowan as the scientist placed the massive box.
"Here you go! That is just the first box of many! Almost every trainer in the world will have them!" said the scientist as Rowan opened the box to reveal several multicoloured smartphones and Poke Balls of a certain Pokemon.
"Thank you. This… will be perfect. I have three trainers who will love these." said Rowan as he then took 3 of the empty smartphones, one red, one pink and the final one brown and took three Poke Balls. Then he grabbed onto the box he was given by Delia Ketchum and walked out of his office.
"Geez Professor, what took ya so long? It couldn't have been that much of a hassle, could it?" asked Ash as he saw Rowan carrying a box with 3 phones on top of it and 3 Poke Balls.
Rowan laughed, "Nonsense, I was just preoccupied with someone as I heard fantastic news!" said Rowan while Dawn looked at him.
"And what that might be?" Dawn asked as Rowan placed the package on the table as he looked at all of them.
"Long story short: The Professors from all around the world have worked on a new type of Pokedexes for over a year that can be used by anyone no matter the age or the inexperienced, and today, a package full of new Pokedexes came into the lab." explained Rowan which caused Brock to almost reveal his eyes.
"Really? That sounds great!" said Brock.
"It is. So, please, take these smartphones, I believe that these will be your favourite colours." said Rowan as he gave the three the smartphones, one for Ash, one for Brock and the other for Dawn.
"Uhh… what is this?" asked Ash as they, sans Brock, turned to him.
"You never had a smartphone before?" asked Dawn.
Ash shrugged his shoulders, "Never had one. Pallet Town only has 1 place with an immense amount of electronics and that was Oak's lab."
"I see, though, you should not worry. Anyone can use this new Pokedex even if you just heard of it," said Rowan as he then took 3 of the Poke Balls, "Now, watch and see this new Pokemon!" he yelled as then three identical copies of one Pokemon appeared. It is a small digital floating being with orange skin and digital blue eyes as there was a digital electric field to the entire Pokemon.
"WOAH!" Ash took several steps backwards from shock.
"What the heck?" asked Dawn as Brock looked at all of them.
"What is this new Pokemon?" asked Brock as he looked around.
"This is a Rotom, an Electric and Ghost Pokemon. A Pokemon that became rather popular in the past few years, so much that it even can appear in different parts of the world. The exact number of them is unknown, though there are more than enough for every Pokemon Trainer in the world." explained Rowan as he remembered encountering one in Eterna Forest's Mansion.
"I see," Brock crossed his arms, "Do they come into our party?"
Rowan shook his head, "Unfortunately no. Like Alolan Pokedexes, it isn't possible to transfer the Rotom into your team. We haven't found a way to do it, so for the time being, they will not assist you in battle."
"Oh…" Ash sadly said that as he kinda wished to have one of them in his team. Pikachu patted him on the back.
"Fret not. Please, raise your new smartphones." said Rowan which caused them to look at him with a confused look.
"Why?" asked Dawn with Piplup tilting his head.
"You will see." said Rowan as they looked at each other before raising their smartphones. Rowan then turned to the three Rotoms, "If you may." The three Plasma Pokemon then flew towards their smartphones, to which it shocked the three, including their Pokemon. Everyone, with the exception of Rowan, gasped seeing this.
As then… they spoke.
[Greetings. User Registered: Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town.] Ash's new smartphone spoke as then, his red smartphone grew 2 small electric arms with the back being that of Rotom's face. He wasn't the only one that got it.
[Greetings. User Registered: Brock Takeshi from Pewter City.] Brock's new smartphone spoke as then his brown smartphone grew 2 small electric arms with the back being that of Rotom's face.
[Greetings. User Registered: Dawn Hikari from Twinleaf Town.] Dawn's new smartphone spoke as then her pink smartphone grew 2 small electric arms with the back being that of Rotom's face.
"What… in the world?" asked Ash in shock as he looked through the phone.
"That is the newly named Rotom Phone, an upgrade to every Pokedex in all of the Regions, including that of Alola." said Rowan with a proud look on his face.
"What does it exactly do?" asked Dawn as Brock began to look through the new Rotom Phone as the attention was now on him.
"Hey, wait a minute, these are all of the Pokemon I have caught!" yelled Brock as he then showed the Pokedex, which included a Steelix, Crobat, Swampert, Forretress, Ludicolo, Graveller and their pre-evolutions.
"You found its first feature, well done. It acts as a Pokedex for every Pokemon you have ever encountered and stores it in the Rotom Phone. Now, can any of you look at a Pokemon with the Phone, please?" asked Rowan as then Dawn's Rotom Phone flew upwards, "...forgot to mention it can move on its own."
Dawn's Rotom Phone then turned to Piplup, who jumped from the shock as then it scanned the small Pokemon. [Piplup, The Penguin Pokemon. It lives along the shore in northern countries. A skilled swimmer, it dives for over 10 minutes while hunting.]
"That is not it, can you look into the Pokemon for further examination , please?" asked Rowan as Dawn nodded.
"Sure? Check Piplup for me." Dawn said to her Rotom Phone which flew towards her starter Pokemon.
[Piplup: Water Type. Hardy Nature. Ability: Torrent. Moveset: Bubble Beam, Bide, Peck and Pound] Dawn's Rotom Phone preserved the Penguin Pokemon which Piplup gasped hearing that.
"That's a perfect examination!" Dawn gaped hearing that.
"As I explained, its examination is close to perfect. Surpassing that of the regular Pokedex, though that is not all. There is a button that allows you to contact your Professor and Lab which allows you to choose any Pokemon you want to add, or possibly Trade without looking for a machine." said Rowan as he narrowed his eyes, "In short: It is what we call a 'Portable PC', which allows any trainer to contact their professor and get any Pokemon they want to that they caught."
"I- WHAT?!" Ash dropped his jaw hearing that.
"That is insane." said Dawn which Piplup took a hold on it, to see if there are any games on the phone.
"We didn't program it for over a year for it to work like a normal Pokedex, did we?" asked Rowan as then he heard Ash's phone beep.
"Is this a new feature?" asked Ash as he saw the contact being his mom.
"Of the Pokedex? No, that is a regular feature of a phone. You can call anyone from anywhere, anytime in any condition." said Rowan, to which Ash nodded at that.
"I see, well, see ya guys later, I have to take this call." said Ash as he then began to a different room.
"With those clothes? Not on my watch, change with the clothes that your mother made for you." said Rowan in a stern voice as Ash turned and nodded.
"Right, almost forgot. Thank you!" yelled Ash as he grabbed the box and ran towards a different room.
While Piplup was playing with his new phone, a tiny static shock was dispersed from it, shocking the small penguin. "PIP?!" yelled Piplup as they turned to see him yelling at the Rotom Phone.
"What's going on, Piplup?" asked Dawn as she looked at her starter who was trying to use Peck on the small phone.
"Piplup pi! Piplup!" yelled Piplup as he pointed at the Rotom Phone which raised a brow hearing that.
"Possessed? I know it is controlled by a Ghost Pokemon, however, these new Rotoms are very Docile and are contempt with their positions." said Rowan.
"Piplup pip!" yelled Piplup as Dawn rustled his head.
"Don't worry, Piplup, it won't hurt you. maybe it is how you were touching it." said Dawn as Piplup glared at the Rotom Phone, who for a second showed a mischievous smile on the screen before it disappeared.
Piplup will never trust that Rotom Phone ever in his life.
Authors Note:
Well that was it! I am going to admit, that was quite the ride. So why did I do this? I have no idea, lol. If I am being honest with myself, I just wanted to do this because lately, I have gotten so many Pokemon Ideas, specifically for the Sinnoh Journey since it is my favourite region. For example: Paul vs Cryus, a rework of Tobias vs Ash and a way to introduce Tobias as a character and more.
I plan on working on these since I do have a lot of ideas and they have been on my mind for a while now. I won't write a whole Sinnoh Journey, just the parts that I have the most amount of ideas for. If I want to do it, I might work on a whole Pokemon Fic journey. It will combine the anime with the games, so that means the final fight of Team Galactic will be after Monferno evolves into Infernape. Just an example of that. That and I have an idea for Trip from the Unova Region, and I won't bash him. I never really hated the kid, just thought he was a lil underwhelming as a Rival.
The Pokemon will mostly be in Canon with a new set of Pokemon that Ash and pals might use, like Dawn with a Clefable, Brock with Biberal, Ash with Glaceon, Paul with Leafeon and more. I will give them Pokemon I always really enjoyed and that they might use.
Now for this: I never really watched the show past Unova, though I did do a little research for this and I loved the idea of a Rotom Phone, so I made it a bit better than in Canon by using most of the Professors from the Pokemon Anime which it would make sense that they would work on them. The next one shot might be Paul and Ash getting an Eevee egg, dunno though.
I think that is about it, so see ya!
