Since Proctor and Annie have accepted Ash's offer to work for his family as researchers of the fossil Pokémon, Ash actually had to call his family, and tell them about it, so that they can make it happen.
He ended up calling Red and Riley, as they are the only ones who can build something in PPA, and who have to agree for this to actually work. Delia has nothing to do with Ketchum Family business, as she was never interested, while Ilene is simply the Queen of the Rota Kingdom, and has left the family business in Red's and Riley's hands.
While Ash was taking care of this, Proctor and Annie went and collected some seeds from an ancient berry trees, which grow only on Wales Island and which the Pokémon like Cradily and Armaldo, used to eat back in the old days. They want to try and plant these seeds in Pallet Town, so that they can grow these ancient berries for the ancient Pokémon. Of course, they don't know if these trees would be able to grow in Kanto Region, but they can try.
By the time Ash finished talking with his father and uncle, Proctor and Annie had all the seeds they needed, and all they had to do was pack their personal things, before they were to leave the Wales Island and head to Pallet Town, to meet with Riley, who will wait for them there, in order to help them find a place to stay, until the research center was built.
As for Ash, Serena, May and Max, with everything agreed upon with Proctor and Annie, they spent the night in their hotel rooms in the town near the coast, and then left the Wales Island in the morning, heading toward the next island on their journey.

The next stop on the gang's journey, was the Izabe Island.
When they arrived there, they found out that there is a Pokémon Contest in a place called, Purika City, the same place they arrived. Since they were already there, they decided to watch it, as there is nothing better to do, except train.
Once the contest was finished, with the winner being some guy called, Harley - a very strange looking guy, in May's opinion - the gang left the Purika City, and headed further inside of the Izabe Island, which is quite large compared to most island in the Hoenn Region, and has many settlements, and not just Purika City.
Right now, the gang of four were walking through the mountains of Izabe Island. The ground level of the mountain, and the path they are walking, is covered in fog, which makes the walking hard, as the visibility is very low in front of them. Still, if they were to look up, they can see more clearly.
It was as they were walking down the path, that Ash saw something high above them.
"Hey, look up there." Ash said to his friends, as they all stopped and looked at what Ash was looking at.
"Whoa." Serena exclaimed.
"Is that a giant Poke Ball?" May asked.
"That's way too big to be a Poke Ball," Max said. "It also looks-like it's made out of stone."
"I'd like to know what the story behind it is." Serena said.
"I can tell you about it," said a voice from behind the gang, making them all turn around to see who it was. They saw an old man, with long white hair and beard. He was wearing some green cloak and had a cane in his right hand. "Those who seek knowledge, deserve to gain knowledge." He said.
"Who are you?" May asked.
"I'm Sigourney," the old man said. "The sage of Izabe Island.
"What are the Sage's, again?" Serena asked.
"They are philosophers." Ash said.
"That's correct," Sigourney said. "And I have the knowledge you seek about the stone Poke Ball. The legend of the great Poke Ball has been passed since old times here in the Valley of Destruction."
"Why is it called like that?" Max asked.
"Are you curious?" Sigourney asked, making the gang nod.
"Then knowledge I shall give to you," Sigourney shouted, as he opened the green cloak, only to reveal boxes of food and souvenirs attached by strings around his neck, and in his left hand. "But first. Souvenirs, postcards, t-shirts, muffins, bumper stickers... What will it be, kids?"
The gang fell forward when they saw the old man change the character to go from the old, wise and mysterious man, to a street salesman.
"Are you kidding me," Ash said from the ground? Even he didn't expect this. "You are selling souvenirs."
"I got to do something," Sigourney said with closed eyes and a smile on his face. "We sages, don't get paid that much." He then got a hard look on his face, before he said. "But, no one knows the legends like I do, because," he pulled a book from… somewhere, "only I poses this ancient text handed down from the time of the great destruction."
Ash and the others were all back on their feet, and looked interested in what Sigourney was talking about.

Sometime later, the gang and Sigourney were seating on the mountain road, and having some snack from the food that Sigourney was selling.
As they were seating, Sigourney was telling them a story. "Years ago, in the time of the great destruction, a great power was sealed inside of that Poke Ball."
"What kind of power?" May asked.
"It doesn't really matter now," Sigourney said. "The ball is empty. An evil stranger released the destructive force within the ball many years ago."
"What happened after the force came out?" Serena asked.
"It destroyed the island, that's what happened," Sigourney said. "For seven days and seven nights, the destroyer crushed and burned everything in its path. Just when all hope was lost, a figure appeared out of nowhere. A White Sage. He summoned a second giant Poke Ball from another dimension, and sealed the destroyer inside of it. To this day, it is still trapped in the middle of the Izabe Lake.
"As proof that my story is true, I can take you to see it, if you are worthy of it… Are you worthy?"
"Of course we are worthy!" Max shouted.
"And how would you know that?" May asked him.
"You can all prove that you are worthy by… buying some of my souvenirs." Sigourney said, making everyone face-fault.

On the Northern side of the Izabe Lake, stood Shelly, formerly of Team Aqua, but after she escaped from the Monsu Island, she returned to her real job as a spy.
Shelly looks quite a bit different then she did when she was a member of Team Aqua. Her black and blue hair that used to be very long and wild, is now a bit shorter and tied in a high ponytail with chin-length bangs. Instead of the blue Team Aqua suit she wore, she now wears a one-piece, black body suit, almost like a one-piece swimsuit. It's wrapped around her neck and covers her breast and torso area, along with her private area. Her back is completely exposed, and the lower half of the suit is like a thong, barely covering anything. She wears black arm-warmers, and long black socks, going up to her mid-thigh.
She is currently standing by the Izabe Lake, talking with someone on the phone. "Why am I doing this, again?" She asked the person on the other side of the phone.
"It was decided that we will not outright interfere in Ash Ketchum's business," a female voice on the other side said. "But we can't just leave him alone. We have to follow him and know of his and his friend's whereabouts, as well as any increase in skill. As such, you were assigned to start this long-term mission, and tail Ash and his friends, until your replacements arrive, from where they will continue the spying, while you will return to the HQ. Is that understood?"
"It is," Shelly sighed. "But I still don't think that this is necessary. We already know all about Ash Ketchum and his skills."
"We do," the voice on the other side confirmed. "But he is just 14 years old, and his skills are going to change over time. Increase as the time passes, and he grows older. As such, we need to know as soon as any changes and increase in power and skill happens, so that we can make our plans according to those changes. Ash Ketchum and his family are very dangerous, and they need constant observation. They are a threat to us, so we need to know all about them. As of right now, all Ketchum's, except Ash, are under watch and plans are made on how to deal with them. With you, and later your replacements, watching Ash, we will have eyes on all Ketchum's, as well as Serena Gomez and Grace Gomez. As such, all of our enemies and potential enemies are under watch, and won't be able to surprise us with anything when the time for the confrontation starts."
"I understand all that," Shelly said. "But if I do this, it won't be just Ash and his friends who are in danger. This entire island will be in danger."
"We don't care about stuff like that," the voice from the other side said. "Remember your teachings… #7. Remember that when you joined this organization, you stopped carrying about everyone and everything else in the world. The only thing that matters, is the Queen. Her desires, and her life is important. Nothing else. Do you understand that?"
Shelly was quiet for a few moments, before she finally replied. "Yes," she said. "I understand perfectly."
"Good," the voice said. "Now, proceed with your mission. And DON'T FAIL!"
The phone line ended, leaving Shelly in quiet, as she stood there by the lake, thinking of what's about to happen.

Sigourney led the gang to the lake, where he showed them a giant Poke Ball, floating on the middle of the lake.
"There it is," Sigourney said. "Exactly where it's been for the last thousand years. BEHALD…" before he could say anything else, there was a loud roar coming from the lake, before something hit the giant Poke Ball from below, bursting it into little pieces, which scattered all over the lake.
"What the hell was that?" Sigourney shouted while watching wide-eyed at the lake where the giant Poke Ball used to be, and where there is currently a pillar of light shooting toward the sky. At the same time, the lake was split in half, creating a trench.
"A Gyarados," Ash said while watching with narrowed eyes. "That roar was Gyarados. It must have fired a Hyper Beam at the ball and destroyed it."
"What are you talking about," Sigourney asked? "There are no Pokemon in the Izabe Lake, especially a Gyarados."
"That was most certainly a Gyarados," Ash said. "I can recognize that roar anywhere because I have a Gyarados."
Soon, the pillar of light disappeared, before it revealed a rather BIG Claydol, floating above the middle of the lake, right over the trench.
"The hell is that thing?" May asked in shock as she saw what she considered to be the biggest Pokemon ever. She thought that Mega Rayquaza is big, but this thing is probably twice as big as the Legendary Mega Pokemon.
"It's a Claydol," Max said! "But why the hell is it that big? Is it even possible for a Pokemon to be that big?"
"Are you telling me that the horrible destroyer from the legend… is a Giant Claydol?" Ash asked.
"Yes," Sigourney said, while reading his book. "It's all right here in the book. It explains what has always been a great mystery to the sages. The ancients drew the picture of a Claydol the size of 20 normal Claydol." He showed the picture in the book to the gang so they can see it.
"How was it stopped the last time?" Ash asked.
"Well," Sigourney read from the book. "It says that the White Sage used his Pokemon to fight it, and defeated it, before he sealed it inside of the giant stone Poke Ball."
"So we must fight that thing and defeat it?" Max questioned.
"Pretty much," Sigourney said. "But that won't be easy. That Claydol is extremely powerful to the point that it would take a Champion level Pokemon to defeat it."
"What are we going to do, Ash," Serena asked? She was really worried about this, and what is going to happen now that this Giant Claydol is released. "We don't have any champion level Pokemon here with us."
"We better find a way to stop it soon," Sigourney said. "Claydol is moving, and judging by the directions it's going, it's heading straight towards the village. If it gets there, it will destroy everything."
Ash frowned and thought about what to do. None of the Pokemon he has with him, could battle against that thing, and that includes his two Lapras's, who are both Elite Four Level. He thought about bringing his old Pokemon who are Champion level, but at the same time, he isn't sure if that would be a good idea.
In the end, he decided to try the simplest approach first. Ash pulled out a Poke Ball, and threw it at the Giant Claydol, hitting it on the head. The Poke Ball opened, and red light surrounded Claydol, but after few seconds, nothing happened, and the light disappeared, while the Poke Ball fell into the lake.
"I guess an ordinary Poke Ball can't handle something that big." Max commented after he saw Ash fail to catch Giant Claydol.
"Maybe one of the special Poke Balls I have would work," Ash said. "But they are all back at my house. I never brought them with me when I came to Hoenn."
"My Poke Balls are also home," Serena said. "I only have the regular ones."
"Then the only thing we can do is try and catch it with the giant Poke Ball that you saw earlier." Sigourney said.
"Are you crazy," Max asked? "We can't lift that ball."
Ash released his Grovyle and Combusken, before he said. "I want all of you to try and stop that Claydol from reaching the village. That goes for the two of you as well." He said looking at his Grovyle and Combusken, who nodded at Ash.
"What will you do?" Serena asked.
"Someone used Gyarados to release that Claydol," Ash said. "I'm going after them. I can sense someone on the north side of the Lake, so that's where I'll head."
"Are you sure about this?" Serena asked.
"Not really," Ash said. "But there is no other way. We somewhat know what to expect from this Claydol, so it would be safer for all of you to try and stop it, then to go against someone we know nothing about."
They all saw logic in what Ash said, so they agreed with him. A moment later, Ash run from the group, and around the lake, so he can reach the northern side of it.
When Ash run off, Serena, May and Max, along with Sigourney, stayed behind, and looked between each other and the Giant Claydol, who was already engaged in battle against Combusken and Grovyle.
"Those two really don't waste time, do they?" Sigourney commented.
"With the way Ash trains them, I would be surprised if they were still here with us." May said, while looking at the battle.
Serena and May decided to help Combusken and Grovyle, so they sent their own Pokemon. Serena sent out her Delphox, the strongest Pokemon she has, while May sent out her own Combusken, which is also her strongest Pokemon.
From there on, it began a four on one battle which caused another great destruction.

As Ash ran toward the norther part of the Izabe Lake, he paid attention to the feeling he was getting from the person there. He didn't want them to run away, or slip pass him. He can't let that happen, at least until he sees who it is, and what was the reason for releasing the Giant Claydol upon the innocent people.
From where he was, he was able to sense that there is only one person, a person which feels familiar, but he couldn't remember from where. Ash can also sense that this person has some… mixed feelings. Like they are not sure about what they are doing, yet is doing it, more out of 'must', then 'want'.
As he was running around the lake, Ash could also see the battle against the Giant Claydol. He could also hear the sounds of explosions from the destruction, and the attacks clashing against each other. He wondered if his Pokemon, as well as Serena's and May's, would be able to defeat the Giant Claydol… or at least keep it from advancing to the village, until he deals with the person who released it in the first place. Once he does that, he might be able to call Professor Oak and ask him to send him one of his strongest Pokemon. Alakazam might be a nice choice, as he hasn't battled in a while.
Few minutes later, Ash arrived at the north shore of the Izabe Lake, where he noticed a person hiding behind the trees, a person who doesn't seem to have noticed him and his approach.
Ash took a good look at the person, and realized that it's a woman. Upon a closer look, he recognized her as a member of Team Aqua he run into on several occasions, though she looks quite a bit different and doesn't wear the Team Aqua uniform she used to wear, but instead wears a much more revealing outfit… if you can even call it that way. It's more like a swimsuit then an outfit.
Ash tried to slowly approach Shelly, so she wouldn't see or hear him. He hoped to catch her off guard like that, and apprehend her without any trouble. Unfortunately, as he was walking toward Shelly, he missed seeing a small tree branch on the ground, which he stepped on, and caused it to crack, making just enough noise for Shelly to hear it, and look at where the noise came from.
Shelly took one look at Ash, and nearly had a heart attack. In fact, if she wasn't just in her mid-twenties, she most likely would have had a heart attack from the fright she felt upon seeing Ash standing just several meters away from her. To her, it was like standing several meters away from the Death itself.
"Y-You!" Shelly almost shouted, while looking at Ash, wide-eyed.
"Yes… me," Ash said, while looking at her with narrowed eyes. "Would you mind telling me what are you doing?"
Shelly stood straight as a board, and shock her head. "I'M NOT DOING ANYTHING!" She yelled. It was obvious that she was afraid like never before in her life.
Ash looked at her, and had to control himself not to start laughing at the fear Shelly was feeling. He can literally smell it on her. Instead of laughing, Ash decided to scare her some more. "Come here!" He ordered, while his eyes glowed for a moment. In that moment, he has done the same thing he did to Serena and May, while they were in the sauna in the Lilycove City. He has ordered her to do something, thus pretty much controlled her to do it.
Shelly was unable to resist the command and started walking toward him. She was shaking like a leaf, while wondering what is going to happen now. In the back of her mind, she knew that she shouldn't be listening to Ash like this. She should be running away from him like he is the devil himself - which might not be that big of a stretch considering what he can do. Unfortunately for her, she didn't have a control over her body, even though she knew that. She wondered, what is happening.
Shelly came and stood right in front of Ash. Her body shivering, her breathing hard, while sweat was rolling down her face.
Ash stood in front of her, looking at her with narrowed eyes. He was thinking on what to do with her at that point. He could tie her up and then hand her over to the police. She was a member of the Team Aqua, and as such she is a criminal, even though she was never caught as she was able to escape from the Monsu Island.
That would be the most logical thing to do. She is a criminal, and deserves to go to prison. But, at the back of his mind, Ash isn't sure if that would be such a good idea. For one, she is really, REALLY, beautiful, up there with Jane as two most beautiful woman he has ever seen in person… well maybe three, if he takes into consideration that pink haired woman from Team Magma, though he has only seen her face, and nothing else so he isn't sure about her. As such, Ash knows that the prison will not be easy on her, and it would be a shame to let her suffer at the hands of the other prisoners.
Since she is so beautiful, Ash is feeling attracted to Shelly, even though she is his enemy. That doesn't matter to him, though. He won't marry her or anything like that.
Thinking on what to do with her, Ash decided to have some fun with her, while he thinks. "Get on your knees." Ash ordered, his eyes glowing red.
Shelly dropped on her knees, her head right in front of Ash's pants-covered dick. Ash lowered his pants down to his ankles, and stood there with his dick right in front of Shelly's face.
Shelly took one look at Ash's dick, and realized what he wants. She also took one look at it, and started to salivate at her upper and lower lips. At six and a half inches in length, Ash is just over an average when compared to a full-grown man, but considering that Ash is just barely 14-years old, then he is quite big. Shelly was sure that by the time Ash is fully grown, his dick might even reach 10 inch, and that though made her salivate even more.
"Suck." Ash ordered, and that was it. Shelly simply dived it, and started to such his dick, though she didn't take it all the way in right of the bat. She wanted him to enjoy, even though she wasn't sure why, as he is pretty much forcing her to do this. So, she started to slowly lick his head, before she moved to the shaft, and then back to the head. When Ash's dick was fully coated in her saliva, then Shelly enveloped Ash's dick in between her lips, making Ash hiss in pleasure.
While Shelly was sucking his dick, Ash's head was bent backwards, and his eyes were closed. He was enjoying the felling of his dick being sucked, and had to admit that compared to Serena and May, Shelly might as well be an expert, though thinking back, she isn't as good as Caroline and Jane were.
At the same time, he was also thinking on what to do with her. The way she was sucking his dick made Ash think that he was right, and that throwing her ass in jail, would be such a waste, but to just let her go and continue to be a criminal, is also not such a good idea. In fact, it's even worse than to send her in jail.
As the minutes passed, and as Ash was approaching his release, as Shelly was now giving him a handjob, while at the same time was sucking on his head for all it was worth; Ash was also approaching to the best possible decision to make in regards to Shelly.
At the same time he exploded inside Shelly's mouth, filling her guts with his semen, Ash made a decision on what to do with Shelly.
XXX
While Ash was enjoying himself with Shelly, his friends were not having a fun time. They were having a lot of trouble with the Giant Claydol, who proved to be very powerful. The only good thing is that Claydol doesn't seem to know many attacks, and is only using Ice Beam, Hyper Beam, and Psybeam.
As for the gang Pokemon, May's Combusken was taken out, before she sent out her Sableye, and used Mega Evolution for the first time.
As for Ash's Combusken and Grovyle, as well as Serena's Delphox, they were holding their own against the Giant Claydol, constantly landing their attacks, but the giant Pokemon is proving to be very tough, and impossible to take down, no matter what attacks they hit it with.
The situation changed a little when Sableye Mega Evolved, as his attacks became more powerful and dealt quite a bit of damage to the Giant Claydol who is weak against Ghost and Dark Type Pokemon, and Sableye is both.
During the battle, a lot of the area was destroyed. The gangs Pokemon have done some damage, but the most damage was done by the overpowered Hyper Beams used by the Giant Claydol, who didn't care for the damage done, as long as it takes out the pests which are standing on its way.
Eventually though, even Giant Claydol' near infinite endurance has come to an end, as it fell on the ground, barely keeping itself from passing out. It was defeated and it knows that, but Claydol wouldn't be Claydol, if it went down without one last attack. It was defeated, but it will make sure that his opponents go down with it.
Suddenly, the whole area around Claydol, started to glow, much to the shock of Serena, May, Max and Sigourney, who knew what is happening.
XXX
Once he came into Shelly's mouth, Ash pulled his dick from her mouth, and tucked it back into his pants. He was still ready to go few more rounds, but he had more important things to do right now.
As he was standing there at the edge of the forest, near the Izabe Lake, Ash watched Shelly as she was on her hands and knees, coughing from the amount of sperm which flooded her mouth and almost caused her to suffocate. Once she was able to either swallow or spit out all of the sperm, she looked up at Ash, with teary eyes.
"We need to talk," Ash said to her. "As such, sit down, and relax. You will have to answer some questions. Is that understood?" Ash asked in the end.
"Y-Yes." Shelly said, before she set on the ground and looked at Ash.
Ash cast a look across the lake, seeing that the battle against the Giant Claydol was still going. He wasn't sure about all the details, but he is sure that his friends and Pokemon are having a lot of trouble with that thing, as such, he needs to hurry and help them. But, he can't just let Shelly go without questioning her, and he can't bring her to his friends, as they will want her sent to jail. As such, he needs to ask her few things, before he goes to help his friends.
"What are you doing here," Ash asked? "What was the point of releasing that Claydol from its prison?"
Shelly looked at the ground in front of her. She didn't dare to look Ash in the face, and tell him that she can't reveal that, or she would lose her life if she does. She isn't sure if he would care about that piece of information, or if he simply threaten to kill her if she doesn't tell him.
"Look at me!" Ash growled, making Shelly lift her head up and look him straight in his eyes. "Tell me!" He ordered.
"I-I was ordered to do this?" Shelly said.
"By whom?" Ash asked.
"By the Q-Queen." Shelly answered. At that moment, she felt like she has sighed her own death warrant.
"The… Queen," Ash said, thinking about what Queen could possibly order something like this. Then, it suddenly dawned on him, as he remembered that Grace told him that the leader of the Shadow Legion, and her own mother, is referred to as a, Queen. This made Ash realize that Shelly is a member of the Shadow Legion, which made him angry.
Ash's eyes glowed red as he was glaring at Shelly, who saw the look and thought that that's it. That she will die, and there is no one to save her.
"I should kill you right now," Ash growled at her, making Shelly whimper in fear. "When did you even become a member of the Shadow Legion? You were a part of the Team Aqua until like… two weeks ago."
"I-I was a member of the S-Shadow Legion since I was a teenager," Shelly confessed. "I became a part of the Team Aqua in order to spy on them for the Legion."
"Is that so," Ash asked, glaring at Shelly? "That means that you were a part of the organization that killed my friend's father, tortured my girlfriend, and tried to kill us all. That's enough reason for me to kill you, dismember you and toss your body parts all over this island."
Shelly said nothing, she only whimpered in fear as she was looking at the ground beneath her.
"Luckily for you," Ash spoke again. "You are far too beautiful to suffer that fate. The same goes for throwing your sorry ass in jail. As such… you will have to make a choice."
Shelly looked at Ash with hope in her eyes. It seems that he won't kill her, but then again, what does he expect from her in return. It most definitely won't be anything easy, and might get her killed anyway.
"W-What do I h-have to do?" Shelly asked.
Ash smirked at her, making Shelly shudder. She didn't like that smirk. Not at all.
"You were a spy for the Shadow Legion inside of the Team Aqua," Ash said, and Shelly nodded. "Well, then it shouldn't be that difficult for you to be a spy for ME, inside of the Shadow Legion."
When she heard what Ash wants from her, Shelly choked on her spit, and her eye went wide in disbelief. "I- I can't do that," Shelly said. "There is no way that anyone can be a spy in the organization like the Shadow Legion."
"And why is that?" Ash questioned.
"The Queen has Psychic powers, so she knows everything that's happening around her," Shelly said. "She can read our thoughts like an open book. I wouldn't be able to spy for you as she would know about it right from the start. That being said. The moment I go back, she will know what happened here."
"Well, that might be a problem." Ash said, as he thought on how to get pass the Queen and plant a spy in the organization.
As he was thinking on what to do with Shelly, and how to plant her as a spy in the Shadow Legion, the part on the other side of the lake where his friends and Pokemon were battling against the Giant Claydol, was enveloped in the white light. Ash and Shelly looked at this, and Ash instantly recognized what's happening.
"OH, FUCK!" Ash yelled as he run to the edge of the Izabe Lake, and raised both of his hands up in the air, pointing at the light.
Ash was surrounded by his aura, with his eyes glowing red. Soon, the area where the white light was, was enveloped in a green barrier. The area was rather large, so the barrier had to be even bigger. It was the biggest barrier Ash has ever made before, which is why the strain was showing on his face, as she started to sweat. Then, there was an explosion, which sent everything to hell.
