Special Skills Rank

Note: The rank was made with three things in mind: How it can make difference in uncommon battles? This support/attack move can really change battle course? This damage can OTK? Except the E and F Rank ones, all the special skills are good, so anyway, you can use them! If the special skill is in D Rank, for example, it doesn't mean you need avoid use them!

Other observation, literally, almost all specials can OTK enemies (according by this ML Fandom Page)

While taking an elevator in a training facility, the building's power was lost and she and Melissa got stuck. Assunta began having a panic attack, until the door was suddenly opened thanks to a trainer, Ritchie, and his Pikachu supplying enough power for it to do so.

When they meet up the girl introduces herself as Yancy. Blake Introduces himself under the alias Nate to protect his identity as an International Police officer. Yancy asks him to accompany her around the park as a way of saying thank you.

The two go on various attractions and Yancy asks Blake to exchange contact information and keep in touch. Blake agrees and the two spend the following year talking to each other on the phone on occasion. Over this time Blake develops romantic feelings for Yancy. He also pieces together that Yancy is in fact the idol superstar Nancy.

As it approaches the one year anniversary of their first "date," Blake applies to be assigned on a mission to Orre. Not wanting to leave on this mission without explaining himself somewhat to Yancy he invites her on a real date to a movie premier. After the movie but before the date concludes, Blake confesses his feelings for Yancy, but that he can't be in a relationship with her. Not only does he know it would be very hard for her because of her idol career, but he tells her he is leaving to Orre for work and can't promise his return.

Heartbroken but understanding, Yancy suggests that they try to make as many good memories as they can that night. Blake agrees and the two return to Nimbasa Park for the remainder of their date. At the end of the night on the Ferris Wheel, Yancy gives him half of a set of love pendants to remember her by and a romantic kiss. Blake walks her back to her hotel, says goodbye, and walks away.

He then reports in to Looker that he is done with his appointment. Looker informs him that his hunch about Orre was correct and that he has all but been approved to go to the region.

(NON) Reset Bloodlines

**(NON) Reset Bloodlines**is a sidestory related to the expanded universe of *Pokémon Reset Bloodlines.* Unlike most others, it is set in an alternate but connected timeline to the main story, one where Ash Ketchum did not merge with his counterpart from The Old Timeline before beginning his journey. It is also the eighteenth sidestory written by Crossoverpairinglover and ninety-seventh sidestory overall.

In an alternate timeline, Ash Ketchum works part-time helping his mother Delia in the Pallet House restaurant, and he's rather quick to make friends with visitors from foreign regions thanks to his knack for studying foreign languages. He ends up having a head start as a trainer thanks to finding a Pikachu chewing on the restaurant's electricity cables, and an Alolan girl named Iolani who gives him a Rowlet to take care of.

## Continuity

* First appearances (proper) of Dawn, Rowlet and Hop, albeit as alternate timeline counterparts.

Alola

**The Alola region** is a trainer nation not affiliated with T.A.T.O. The people of Alola are friendly to a degree that unnerves outsiders. Of course, many Unovans retire to Alola and thus some of their culture came with them. Trainers who start in Alola and qualify for an official starter Pokémon are given a choice between Rowlet, Litten and Popplio.

## Government Structure

### Kahunas

A kahuna is the equivalent of a governor of one of Alola's four islands. They are handpicked by the Tapu of their island and have the right to select Trial Captains, but also have to keep the Tapu happy. In the Island Challenge, they are the ones who manage an Island's Grand Trial.

### Trial Captains

A Trial Captain has the job of managing a Trial for the Island Challenge. The pay is awful and hold the position until they turn 25 or get incarcerated. They are required to set up some task a challenger must complete before fighting their Totem Pokémon.

Totem Pokémon are unique to the Alola region and only started appearing after King Kahele returned from his trip abroad with the first Z-Crystals. The only known limitation of what Pokémon can become a Totem Pokémon is that it cannot evolve further naturally. A Trial Captain needs to be able to at least influence a Totem Pokémon's behavior, if not outright control it.

True Z-Crystals are rare and are not regularly given out at the end of each Trial. The traditionally known poses for using them are cultural and variations on efficiency are rare.

## Laws

* Invasive Pokémon may not be killed, but may be spayed or neutered to prevent their population from increasing.
* The general public may not access the Baggage Claim in an Airport.
* Gay marriage is legal in Alola.
* It is legal to check an unborn child's gender in Alola, unlike in the Ranger Union.

## Cities and Towns

* Iki Town
* Po Town
* Hau'oli City

Casem

**Casem** is a young orphan who suddenly developed Bloodliner abilities after Ash's battle with Sabrina. He, along with Katty are currently being taken care of by Ren.

## History

### Sabrina Arc

Casem was hit by the radiation caused by Ash's Butterfree's Shattered Psyche and Sabrina's Mega Alakazam clashing. This resulted in him developing Bloodliner abilities.

### Indigo Arc

Casem accompanied Ren and Katty to the Indigo League Conference so that Ren would be able to gather information on the Bloodliners competing in the tournament. Ren had a single ticket to watch Ash and Otoshi's battle, so she procured tickets for Katty and Casem to watch the Whirl Cup Qualification Tournament that was happening at the same time.

After watching the first few rounds, Katty and Casem were inspired that they wanted to get Water-type Pokémon of their own. They went down to a river and tried to fish up some Magikarp using improvised fishing rods. When Katty was pulled into the water by a Magikarp she hooked before it escaped, Casem expressed that she should have handed him the string to reel the Pokémon in. The teenagers were suddenly called out to by a voice letting them know that just a string rod would make catching a Pokémon very difficult. He looked up to see it was one of the trainers competing in the qualification tournament, Misty.

Misty offers to help them catch themselves some Pokémon, adding that there's more than Magikarp around, and takes them to a different spot. She sends out her Tentacool to go looking for any Poliwag nearby, and after one gets knocked up to the surface, she uses a Quick Ball to catch it, much to Casem's surprise. Suddenly, a Bellsprout emerges from the bushes and grabs Tentacool with its vines, and Misty brings out her Wimpod to attack it, while one of her empty balls comes out too. During the struggle, Katty grabs the ball, which turns out to be a Luxury Ball to catch the Bellsprout, and apologizes for using it without permission. Misty however is fine with it, and allows them to keep the Pokémon. The kids seemingly wonder if they can achieve their own dreams, somehow having doubts, and from their words Misty deduces they're trying to reveal they're Bloodliners, so seeing that nobody is looking, she reveals herself as one too to cheer them up, assuring them that nothing should stop them from achieving whatever they want to do. She even offers to use her remaining time to show them that their Pokémon can do, which they gladly accept.

## Bloodline(s)

Crossoverpairinglover has confirmed that Casem's Bloodline was a species one, but did not confirm the species.
Damian

**Damian** is a trainer who is known for abusing his Pokémon, and abandoning them if they're too weak. He briefly owned both Ash's Charizard as a Charmander and Misty's Horsea before releasing them both. He was Ash's Charizard's second trainer in the Resetverse rather than his first like in the anime.

## History

### The New Timeline (Past)

Damian found out a Pokémon Center had a Charmander up for adoption, so went there to have it join his team. After being verified by the attending Nurse Joy, he left with his new Fire-type.

He pushed Charmander to train past exhaustion on its own and became more and more annoyed as the tired Fire-type was unable to perform well in battles.

He captured a Horsea at some point in this and after it lost a battle, he released it without healing the Water-type.

Eventually Damian got sick of his Charmander losing battles and ordered him to stay on a rock until he returned even though he had no intention to go back for it.

### Rota Arc

Damian was ambushed by Jessie, James and Meowth where the trio stole all the valuables an money the trainer had on him as well as his twenty Pokémon.

Adamant Orb

The **Adamant Orb** is a large blue sphere marked with hexagonal cells. It has the ability to show visions of what was, is, can be and could be, thanks to its relation to the Legendary Pokémon Dialga.

The orb was hidden in a chamber deep below the ground in Sinnoh. It was situated on a pedestal inscribed with: "A partial symbol of Time, a summoning of It and a tiny fragment of It's power. What is, what was, and what could be and could have been" in Unown ruins.

To get to the tomb, you had to go through some ruins with the inscription "...The Resting Place of My Fairest Wife, Taken from Dirtiest of Origins, May be Entered only with That Pokémon" on one of the walls of a hidden cavern with a set of sealed doors. To get the doors to open you had to present a Feebas before it. Deeper in the ruins a deliberate boulder was placed to block the way, that you had to try to get past.

Cynthia uncovered the orb and delivered it to the Celestic Museum.

At one point in time the museum lent it out to a small town to be displayed in the mayor's home. While it was there, William Stronger saw visions of a Bloodliner war when he touched it, and thus took up the mission to eliminate the Bloodliners of the world in an effort to prevent the visions from happening.

Ash's Pikachu

**Pikachu** continues to be Ash's main Pokémon in *Pokémon Reset Bloodlines*.

## History

### The Old Timeline

Pikachu appears briefly in The Old Timeline but is erased along with everyone else.

### Starting Arc

Pikachu is the first Pokémon that Ash releases from a Pokéball when given a different choice for starter by Professor Oak. Pikachu had reverted to its grumpy, unpleasant nature, but when Ash touches him, his memories are instantly restored in full.

On Route 1, Ash and Pikachu review what they already know about the situation, Ash talking and Pikachu responding with imitations. They are later set upon by some Pidgey and Pikachu realizes the hard way that he doesn't know how to use his more powerful attacks and is forced to use Thundershock to drive them off. Pikachu laments the erasure of all the hard work they put into learning those moves and Ash and Pikachu spend a few hours trying to relearn Iron Tail. When it starts to get dark, they are set upon by a group of Spearow and Fearow. The two of them promptly flee, but are cornered. Pikachu and Ash defend themselves, but Pikachu quickly exhausts itself and nearly dies when a Fearow uses drill run. Ash accidentally uses Counter and saves him before passing out.

When Misty comes to check on them, he recognizes her, much to her confusion. He then allows her to bring both him and his trainer to the Viridian City Pokémon Center. When Ash finally wakes up, Pikachu expresses his relief that Ash survived, but is confused when Ash shows hints that he literally understood him.

During Team Rocket's attack on the Pokémon Center, Ash has Pikachu lead with Iron Tail rather than Thundershock, and sends Koffing flying. Meowth gets behind Pikachu and when Pikachu tries to use Iron Tail again, it fails and Meowth hits it with Fury Swipes. When Meowth gets paralyzed, Pikachu chastises him for using a multiple contact move on him making Ash think he heard a voice again. Ash gives the command for Thundershock and Pikachu sends Team Rocket blasting off.

### Pewter Arc

Pikachu would be Ash's second Pokemon in his gym battle against Brock, fighting against Onix with Iron Tail. Pikachu would defeat Onix by using his electric attack to reflect Onix's Bide back at the Rock Snake Pokemon, defeating it and winning Ash the Boulder Badge.

* Volt Tackle

**Previously Known**
