"So six badges, I guess we head north now?" Rosa asked.

"No can do, turns out that Twist Mountain is only accessible for certain people during this season, and we'd all need that access." Ash said in thought. "I guess we could head back towards Nimbasa and go east from there or maybe even south east from Castelia."

"Both of those are a ways off. Can't believe I'm saying this but I kind of miss the tour bus for situations like this." Rosa admitted.

'Someone is trying to call you on your C Gear.' A voice said coming from Ash's wrist.

Authors Note

Yes I know originally I said they were X Transcievers, those are gen 6, my bad, to be fair there are THREE watch accessories in Pokemon, and all were introduced one after another. Also the amount of mistakes I made in Nimbasa I don't really know, something was wrong with my memory then. Now back to the story.

"Hello?" Ash asked, answering his C Gear as Rosa and Elliot leaned in.

"Ash, Rosie, Eli, good to see all of you again." Stu Deeoh said energetically. "How have things been?"

"Pretty good Mr Deeoh, I just earned my sixth badge, and we're trying to figure out where to go next." Ash admitted.

"Well I have an answer for that, Opelucid City. The location of the fourth Riolu Kid Movie will take place there and I've even gotten permission from the local gym leader and mayor to use his gym for one of the sets." Stu Deeoh said.

"Opelucid City?" Ash asked to Elliot.

"It's about as far from here as we can get with Twist Mountain being unavailable." Elliot said, looking at the map.

"Hmm, where are you three right now?" Stu Deeoh asked.

"We're currently in the Mistralton City Pokemon Center." Ash said.

"Mistralton City, alright I'll make some calls and have you three take a plane from there to Lentimas Town." Stu Deeoh said. "From there you'll have to go through Reversal Mountain to get to Undella Town, and from there head north to Lacunosa Town, and then head west to Opelucid City."

"Alright, I've got that all written down." Ash said, writing down the instructions.

"Good, let me know when you make it to Undella Town Ash." Stu Deeoh said. "I'm looking forward to seeing you again and hearing from you soon."

"Well, I guess we're taking a plane." Ash said, as he and Stu Deeoh had hung up with each other.

"Finally traveling in style. About time your stardom was useful to us." Rosa said with a grin.

One hour later

"This is not what I thought of when he said a plane!" Rosa said, sitting in a cargo plane on top of a crate.

"Why did we have to be flying there?" Elliot asked, holding his third barf bag.

"Come on guys, how many other people can say they've ridden in a cargo plane flown by a gym leader!" Ash said excitedly. "Thanks again Skyla!"

"Don't mention it, that Stu man paid a lot of money for me to fly you three safely to Lentimas Town." Skyla said. "Is he going to be alright?"

Elliot gave a weak thumbs up in response.

"Pika!" Pikachu said excitedly hopping from crate to crate with Minccino.

"How much longer until we get there?" Rosa asked.

"Not far, Lentimas is a pretty closed off town in the center of a mountain range, so we just bring in supplies ever week or so to help them out with what they can't otherwise get or grow themselves." Skyla said. "See you can see it right down there."

Ash looked out the window to see a small town at the base of some mountains with a runway at one end.

"I'd buckle up if I were you, that runway is mostly for show." Skyla commented.

"Buckle up where?!" Rosa said, hanging on for dear life.

"WOOHOO!" Ash cheered as they began to descent as he held onto his hat with one hand and some netting with the other. "Lentimas Town here we come!"

A bit later on the ground

"You know, I was really hoping for something more than, well this." Ash admitted.

"Not every location can be special." Rosa commented.

"Oh sweet ground, I'm never getting so far from you again." Elliot said excitedly.

"Well you three, best of luck getting through to Undella Town, but I have to be going." Skyla admitted as the last of the crates were unloaded.

"Thanks again for the lift." Ash said, as the trio walked into town. "Alright, a quick stop at the Pokemon Center and then we get going."

"Might need to make it a bit longer than just a quick stop." Rosa admitted, as ELliot was still recovering.

"Right, we'll head off tomorrow then." Ash said calmly. "I actually want to switch some Pokemon now that we're going to be going through a mountain rather than flat road."
