I Choose You

Within a small house in Pallet Town, a young boy was fast asleep. He had black hair and amber eyes as well as a secret only a select few knew. Ever since he was a young child he possessed the ability to change into a dragon form. The only clothing he had on was a white t-shirt and pair of pajamas. His name was Ash Ketchum, and he was going to be receiving his first Pokemon from Professor Oak tomorrow morning.

In the Kanto Region, your options for a starter Pokemon as a beginning trainer were Bulbasaur, Charmander and Squirtle.

Ash had his heart set on Charmander, the Fire-Type starter. With that in mind, Ash pulled the sheets back and crawled into his bed.

*The next day...*

"Alright, Charmander here I come!" Ash yelled after waking up and pulling the sheets on his bed back. He ran downstairs as fast as he could. His mother Delia was in the kitchen, preparing breakfast for him.

"Good morning, Ash." Delia greeted him kindly. She was presently making a large breakfast in the kitchen for the two of them.

"Are you ready to start your journey today?" She asked. At that moment a dark blue bird-like Pokemon with red eyes landed in the open window. It resembled a chickadee.

*'What kind of Pokemon is this?'* Ash questioned himself, somewhat confused. The ten year old had never encountered this kind of Pokemon before.

On a hill in a different part of town was a young boy a year older than Ash with a sword holstered to his back. He was also going to begin his own Pokemon journey shortly.

Ash brushed the thought out of his mind and walked out the front door. A few minutes later, he stood still outside the door of Prof. Oak's lab and waited for a opportunity to receive his starter Pokemon.
Before the Orange Islands

With the Indigo League having wrapped up, the gang had returned to Pallet Town. Delia and Prof. Oak had arranged a big garden party for Ash. Even though he didn't get 1st place, Ash still did really well in the Indigo League. Ash, Tomo, Brock and Misty released their Pokemon to enjoy the party.

"I want to thank everyone for cheering for me in the Indigo League." Ash said. "And I thank all my Pokemon for helping me get into the Indigo League and for fighting by my side."

Everyone cheered at Ash's speech.

Ash and the gang were now eating some food.

"So Ash." Brock said. "What are you going to do now?"

"Hmm." Ash said. "Well I have been thinking about what to do next. And I've decided to head to the Orange Islands."

He showed them a brochure of the Orange Islands.

"It says that there is a league there and that's where I've decided to go next."

"Sounds like a great plan to me." Misty said.

"If you're going to the Orange Islands Ash." Prof. Oak said. "Can you do me a favor? I would like you to visit Prof. Ivy and pick up a package for me. Prof. Ivy lives on Valencia Island."

"Of course Professor." Ash said. "You want to come with me Misty, Tomo, Brock."

"Of course." Misty nodded. "I still want to travel more."

"So do I." Brock added.

"I'm never leaving big brother's side." Tomo said.

"All right then." Ash said. "We'll leave tomorrow."

The next day Ash and the gang got ready to leave for the Orange Islands.

"You take care of yourselves." Delia said. "And good luck in the Orange Islands."

"Okay." Ash said.

The gang said goodbye to Delia and Prof. Oak then headed off to their next adventure.

"How do we get to the Orange Islands big brother?" Tomo asked Ash.

"A blimp." Ash answered. "There's one at the airport in Viridian City that will take us there this afternoon."

"Great." Brock said. "We'll pick up supplies for the journey before we go."

They walked through Route 1 to get to Viridian City.

"Walking through Route 1 brings back a lot of memories, doesn't it Misty?" Ash asked.

"It does." Misty smiled. "This is where we met for the first time. It's also where you caught Rookidee."

At Viridian City, the gang picked up food and medicine from a convenience store and then they boarded the blimp that would take them to the Orange Islands.

"Orange Islands, here we come!" Ash cheered.

The journey to the Orange Islands now commenced.
Ash's Second Sinnoh Gym

Today it was time for Ash and Tomo to take Gardenia on for their second gym badge. This time Ash was going to challenge the gym first and then Tomo would follow. The Eterna Gym was a dome shaped building and since Gardenia used grass type Pokemon, the gym had trees and bushes inside and outside the building. Even the battlefield had trees and bushes and grass. Ash and Gardenia took their places.

"This is a three on three Pokemon battle." Gardenia's assistant Yoko explained.

Tomo and Growlithe promised to pay close attention to this battle, since Tomo would battle Gardenia next.

First off Gardenia sent out her Cherubi and Ash sent out his Mothim.
Lake Guardians

Looker was in trouble. He found Team Galactic in an abandoned warehouse called Fuego Ironworks, outside of Floaroma Town. So he assumed the disguise of a Team Galactic agent to find out what they were up too. But Commander Jupiter, who heard about him before from Saturn, didn't fall for his trick. So now he was under attack from Jupiter's Skuntank. Jupiter wanted to know how much information Looker had on Team Galactic.

Meanwhile...

The gang was resting in Floaroma Town's Pokemon Center. They needed to pass through the town again to get to Sunyshore City. Right now they were watching a news report on TV.
Battle Factory 2

Before heading to Celestic Town for the contest, the gang stopped somewhere first. The contest wasn't taking place until tomorrow, so it was fine.

They had come to the Battle Factory.

"This is just like the Battle Factory in Kanto." Ash said.

He was right because the battle factory was a metal factory exactly like Noland's battle factory.

"I wonder if the Frontier Brain is a inventor like Noland."

"I am." A voice said.

The voice came from a young man in a smart suit and Matt was with him.

"Good to see you kids here." Matt said.

The man introduced himself as Factory Head Thorton.

"So Thorton, do you invent things like Noland does?" Ash asked.

"Yes in a way, I know Noland quite well." Thorton said. "I like to invent machines for Pokemon. So are you kids here to battle me?"

"I am. My name's Ash." Ash stepped forward.

"Well Ash, I accept your challenge." Thorton said.

He led Matt and the gang to a big metal warehouse; this is where the battlefield was. Thorton had a apprentice named Wayne who also acted as the referee for the battles.

"This will be a three on three Pokemon battle and whoever knocks out all three Pokemon first is the winner." He explained.

Ash and Thorton took their places on the battlefield. Matt, Brock, Dawn and Tomo sat on the sidelines.

"I wonder what Pokemon Thorton uses?" Dawn asked.

"Well Noland used different types of Pokemon, so Thorton probably does the same thing." Brock said.

"Not exactly." Matt replied. "Thorton uses Pokemon of multiple types to help with his work, but during battles he only uses one type of Pokemon."

Dawn, Brock and Tomo wondered what type it was.

Thorton sent out his first Pokemon, a Magnemite.

*'He probably uses either electric or steel type Pokemon.'* Ash thought.

Ash called out his Breloom to battle.

"Breloom is a grass/fighting type and Magnemite is weak to fighting type Pokemon." Brock said.

"Mach Punch." Ash told Breloom.

Magnemite used Metal Sound to throw Breloom off balance.

"Breloom, use Energy Ball." Ash said.

Breloom fired a Energy Ball attack that hit Magnemite.

"Impressive." Thorton said.

"Magnemite, Lock-On." He ordered.

"Uh-oh. Magnemite is probably going to use Zap Cannon." Tomo said.

"But electric type moves aren't very effective against grass type Pokemon, so why?" Dawn asked.

"That is true but Zap Cannon is a very powerful electric type move that inflicts paralysis." Brock explained.

Magnemite did use Zap Cannon, but Breloom used Protect. Then he punched Magnemite with Sky Uppercut.

"Nice Breloom, now finish this with Mach Punch." Ash said.

Breloom punched Magnemite before it had the chance to do anything and it fainted.

"Ha ha the first win." Dawn said.

"I wonder what Pokemon Thorton will use next?" Brock questioned.

Thorton returned Magnemite and sent Magneton out.

"Do you think Thorton uses the Magnemite evolution line?" Tomo asked.

"Bingo. That's exactly what Thorton uses." Matt said.

"That figures." Brock said.

Ash knew Magneton would be stronger than Magnemite, having battled Magneton before.

"Be careful." He told Breloom.

"Okay Breloom, use Leech Seed." Ash said.

"Use Thunder Wave Magneton." Thorton said.
Before Johto

After Ash's battle with Gary, he went back home and told his mom about his plan to go to the Johto Region.

"I understand Ash." She smiled. "So I wish you luck on your journey and make sure to look after yourself and Tomo."

Misty and Brock wanted to go to the Johto Region with Ash and Tomo as well.

"I want to catch water type Pokemon from that region." Misty said.

"Yeah and I would like to catch some Johto Pokemon from there too. Especially some new rock type Pokemon for my family's gym." Brock said.

"Are you going with us?" Ash asked Tracey.

"No." Tracey responded.

"I'm going to stay here and become Prof. Oak's assistant." He explained.

Ash and the others nodded; Tracey did admire Prof. Oak after all.

When Ash and the others met up with Prof. Oak again he was trying to study the GS Ball.

"Any luck professor?" Ash asked.

"I'm afraid not." Prof. Oak sighed. "Not a single computer of mine can analyze this."

"Wow, this GS Ball is more mysterious than I expected." Ash said.

"But there is someone in Johto who might be able to uncover the mysteries about the GS Ball." Prof. Oak said.

Prof. Oak explained that in the Johto Region, in a town called Azalea Town lives a man named Kurt.

"Kurt is a man famous for designing special Poke Balls." Prof. Oak said. "So if anyone can figure out the GS Ball, he can."

"Can you take the GS Ball to Kurt?" Prof. Oak asked Ash.

Ash agreed to take the GS Ball to him and put it in his bag.

"Oh Prof. Oak there is one more thing I would like to do." Ash said.

He informed the professor that he wasn't going to bring his current Pokemon to Johto as he wanted to capture Pokemon native to that region. Prof. Oak liked that idea.

"I can't wait to find out what Johto Pokemon you catch." He said. He also gave Ash a new Pokedex.

"This Pokedex is from the Johto Region." He explained. "And it has all you need to know about the Pokemon that live there."

"Thanks professor." Ash said.

The next day Ash and the others got ready to leave for the Johto Region. Ash and Tomo were wearing different outfits. Ash was wearing a white shirt with a black and blue jacket and dark blue jeans. The only things he kept on were his hat, sneakers and gloves. Tomo was wearing grey trousers with a white t-shirt and grey trainers. Delia, Prof. Oak and Tracey went to see them off.

"Well I hope you all enjoy your journey in the Johto Region." Prof. Oak said. "And Ash, I wish you luck in the Johto League."

After all the goodbyes and best of luck, the gang set off to Johto for new adventures.
Before The Battle Frontier

Since the gang wasn't going to be traveling through Kanto just yet, Ash was spending the day checking out all his Pokemon, talking to Delia more about his adventures in Hoenn and looking at his badges and other things he won during his journeys.

"I can't wait to start collecting the Frontier symbols and the contest ribbons." Ash told himself.

Prof. Oak had given Ash, Tomo and May new Pokedex's and he updated Ash, Tomo and Max's Pokenav's to show them where the battle facilities were. The first one was near Cerulean City, so Misty agreed to join the group from there. May also got something else; the Squirtle she befriended wanted to join her so May had a new Pokemon.

Later on Mewtwo had a talk with Ash. Mewtwo wanted to travel across the Kanto region, since he hadn't been around Kanto yet.

"Be careful Mewtwo." Ash said. "Remember Team Rocket is still roaming around Kanto and I don't want Giovanni to try and capture you again."

*'Don't worry.'* Mewtwo said. *'I have been training myself to get stronger here at the lab. So I will be ready to attack Team Rocket if they find me.'*

Ash was worried for his friend, but there was nothing he could do to stop Mewtwo.

*'I must say Ash, I feel a power growing inside of you but it isn't your psychic power.'*

"So have I, but I don't know what power it is." Ash said.

He told Mewtwo about the blue light he saw with his eyes closed and how it helped him around Granite Cave and other places without getting lost.

*'I don't know what power that is, but it sounds useful.'* Mewtwo said.

"Yes, and I have this feeling that I will be finding out what this power is later." Ash said.

Truthfully Ash wanted to know what his new power was.

The next day...

It was time for the gang to start their journey through Kanto. Ash and Tomo were still wearing their Hoenn outfits. By now Ash and Tomo had decided what Pokemon they wanted to take with them. Ash had Manectric, Grovyle, Crawdaunt, Swellow as well as Phanpy and Larvitar. Phanpy and Larvitar wanted to travel again, so Ash agreed. Tomo had Growlithe, Elekid, Magby, Magcargo, Pelipper and Dusclops.

"Ash and Tomo you care of each other on your journey." Delia said.

"Don't worry Mom." Ash said. "Tomo and I will be home safely once our journey is over."

"Yes we will." Tomo agreed.

Then the gang said goodbye to Delia to start their journey.

But before they started to leave Pallet Town, Brock showed up. He heard that the gang was traveling through Kanto and Brock wanted to go with them. So with Brock back in the group, it was now time for the new adventure to begin.
Ash Has a Thought

Sometime after leaving Metallica Island, the gang came to a city. They weren't in a rush today so it was a good day for them to relax. May was doing her usual window shopping trip and Brock was doing his usual stocking supplies. As for Max and Tomo, well they were tending to their new Pokemon. Not long after Ash won his Spirit symbol, Tomo had captured a Ponyta and Max had captured a Ditto. Ash was thinking about something; he was thinking about the times he used his aura to find people and Pokemon and how it helped him figure out someone was in disguise along with his enhanced senses and things like that.

"Once I defeat the Battle Frontier, I will work on my aura. It will prevent me from going on a journey for a while, but I have no intention of breaking my promise to Lucario and not learning more about this." He said out loud to himself.

Ash then decided to call Prof. Oak to inform him of his decision and went to a phone inside the Pokemon Center. When Prof. Oak picked up his phone at the lab, Ash told him right away that he needed help.

"From the sound of your tone, this seems serious." Prof. Oak said.

"Professor, do you remember when I told you I found out about my aura power in Rota?" Ash asked.

"Yes I do remember Ash." Prof. Oak answered. "And I still find it surprising that you're a descendant of the famous hero Sir Aaron and that you also have the power of aura."

"My aura power is what I need help with." Ash said. "You see as soon as I finish the Battle Frontier, I wish to train my aura power."

Prof. Oak was surprised by Ash's decision, but he agreed with it.

"As you were born with this power Ash." He said. "I also find it important that you train your aura power just like you've trained your psychic power. I will see if I can find anyone else who has the power of aura and they can teach you."

"Thanks professor." Ash said.

The phone call then ended.

And so it was decided that Ash would train his aura power after he finished the Battle Frontier. The others agreed with the idea too when Ash told them about his decision that evening. Since they knew that Ash had the power of aura, they also knew that this power would help Ash in the future. But before Ash could think about the aura training, he had two other things to think about, and that was finishing the Battle Frontier and participating in the Kanto Grand Festival.

Get Yarr Game On

Slifer Red Dorm...

Things had returned to normal after Tania's defeat. They then got intense as Jaden had a issue to resolve.

"YOU WHAT? WHERE WILL I SLEEP!"

They saw Syrus stand in front of Jaden, very upset.

"Sorry." Jaden apologized. "I really hadn't thought about that in all the excitement."

"EXCITEMENT!?" Syrus screamed. "You traded my bed for a card."

"But I got it for you. Isn't your birthday next week?"

"IT WAS LAST TUESDAY!" Syrus cried out, visibly annoyed and ticked off. "And I'm surprised I made it with everything you've put me through this year. I might need a… new roommate!"

"Don't say that, I'm really sorry. I promise I'll be the best roommate ever from now on."

"What's this?" Chazz spoke up a few tables away from them, smirking at their situation. "Trouble in paradise?"

"Hey! It's private!" Syrus shot back.

"Come on, it's just Chazz." Jaden said. "We share everything… like dessert for example."

"Yeah right, Slifer slacker. Dream on!"

"Okay… then can I have your corn dogs too, and your mashed potatoes?"

"How about you ask for a bed while you're at it!?" Syrus said.

The door to the cafeteria then slid open and Chumley walked in, a look of confusion on his face. "Hey, guys? Anyone order a submarine? Cause there's one parked outside."

"Avast, ya landlubbers! I be the Admiral!"

A large, fat man dressed in a sailor outfit with a captain's hat stood on top of a huge submarine floating in the water.

Everyone held their ears, hoping their eardrums didn't burst.

"Who is he?" Jaden yelled over the noise. "A pirate or something?"

"Ye scallywags never laid your ears on the tales of the Admiral? Scourge of the seven seas?"

"Yeah, he sounds like a pirate." Alexis commented.

"I set sail to challenge one of ye to a duel!" Everyone held their hands over their ears as the high pitched noise flared again. "The bilge rat known as Jaden Yuki!"

Bastion and Alexis looked at the fat man in surprise. "Is he-"

"A Shadow Rider!" Jaden finished for them.

"Show yourself, Jaden!" The admiral shouted into his microphone, causing the annoying noise to pop up again. "Where ye be?"

"Ye be here?" Jaden replied a moment later. "And aren't you just a little old to be playing dress up?"

"Why, I'll keelhaul ya poopdeck! At arms, ye scurvy dog! We be dueling. Now get yarr, game on!"

"Now?" Jaden asked, surprised.

"No, next week." Bastion said sarcastically.
Floaroma Contest

*The next day...*

The Floaroma Town contest was about to start. Marian did the usual introductions and showed off the Floaroma Ribbon. The ribbon was orange with a white stripe on each end. In the dressing room Ash, Kenny and Dawn were waiting for the contest to begin. Ash was wearing a blue tunic, white trousers, brown belt, brown boots and gloves, a blue hat and a red cape. Keny was wearing a white shirt, black tie, a jade green waistcoat, a jade green jacket with yellow markings, jade green trousers with yellow markings, a red sash, white socks and black shoes. Dawn was wearing her pink dress, but it had yellow roses on it and she had her hair tied long with a red hair ribbon and two big curls on the front and two yellow hair barrettes with a bigger red ribbon tied around her neck. Kenny couldn't stop staring at Dawn in her dress; the truth is he liked her despite teasing her so much. The three rivals promised that they wouldn't go easy on each other.

It was soon time for the contest to begin and Dawn was first in the preliminary rounds. She sent her Pachirisu out with a line seal and this one created blue lines. Pachirisu broke the blue lines with his electricity and blue particles were created. Pachirisu landed on his tail, but the tail slipped on the stage and he began rolling around. Because of that Pachirisu started to get stage fright. Dawn had a idea; she had a poffin in her pocket and threw it to Pachirisu. Since poffins were Pachirisu's weakness he quickly got out of his stage fright and grabbed the poffin while using Spark. Then Pachirisu used Discharge which lit up the area, and then he used Sweet Kiss to finish it off. It wasn't bad, but Dawn still had some more work to do to make Pachirisu work better in contests.

After Dawn was a Buizel, a Magmar, a Sealeo, a Magneton, a Koffing and a Pokemon called a Kricketune. Kricketune was a black, red and cream colored cricket Pokemon and it was a bug type Pokemon. Next up was Ash and he sent out Staravia with a smoke seal, and this one created white smoke.

"Staravia, Aerial Ace." He commanded.

Not only did Staravia show how fast he was, he also made the smoke break apart.
Pokemon Ping Pong

*The next day...*

It was time for the Pokemon ping pong contest. Ash and Barry decided to get some more practice in before it started. Dawn didn't really understand the rules about Pokemon ping pong and she admitted it. So Barry explained them. The rules for Pokemon ping pong were a trainer and any of their Pokemon team up together for the game. The trainer got to use a ping pong paddle while the partner Pokemon uses it's body in the ping pong match. It was also forbidden for the Pokemon to use moves to hit the ball. The team who got 11 points first wins the match. After hearing the rules Dawn decided to enter the tournament too and she and Ash registered for it right away. Dawn decided to enter with Ambipom as it really started to like Pokemon ping pong.

After registering, Ash and Dawn decided to practice before the tournament started. There were plenty of practice Pokemon ping pong tables. Dawn used her heads and tails app and Ash won with heads. Winning trainer got the first serve, so Ash gave the first serve. Soon Ash and Dawn were hitting the ball back and forth at each other with the paddles. Unbeknownst to them, a man was watching them practice. Just then Pikachu struck the ball with his tail, but Ambipom struck the ball back with one of her tails. The ball sky rocketed off the table and headed towards the man, who had been watching. The man caught the ball with ease and was impressed by what happened.

The gang ran over to the man to see if he was okay.

"Sorry about that." Dawn apologized.

"I'm impressed with Ambipom's reflexes." The man said. "Have you two been practicing ping pong a lot?"

"This is actually the first time we competed in Pokemon ping pong." Dawn admitted.

The man was impressed.

"Do your best." He said, and then left.

Brock noticed the man on the front of a magazine he was holding, which made the gang wonder who the man was.

Later on it was time for the tournament to begin. Ash, Barry and Dawn made their way into the stadium with their Pokemon. Brock and Tomo took their seats. There was a big TV screen that showed the match ups in the tournament. It revealed that if Ash and Dawn won their first matches they would be up against each other. They were in block B while Barry was in block A. Just then Dawn noticed the man from earlier on the screen.

"That's O. He was the winner of last year's Pokemon ping pong tournament." Barry explained. "He has a reputation for being the world's strongest ping pong player."
Ash's 7th Gym Battle

*The next day...*

Ash would take Candice on. The battlefield was iced up again and was ready for another battle. The gym rules were the same as yesterday.

"I can't wait to see how Ash will do against Candice." Zoey said.

"You will love this." Dawn said.

Tomo was sitting in the seats with the others.

The battle started and Candice called out Sneasel. Ash sent Gallade out.

"Gallade is perfect against Sneasel as it's a psychic/fighting type." Brock said.

"Gallade, use Leaf Blade." Ash said.

Gallade charged towards Sneasel to use Leaf Blade, but Sneasel dodged it and began skating around on the ice.

"Calm down Gallade. Try to sense Sneasel's movements." Ash said.

Gallade closed his eyes and thanks to his psychic power he was able to charge at Sneasel and hit it with Leaf Blade.

"Nice job Gallade. Now use Close Combat." Ash said.

Gallade attacked Sneasel with Close Combat. Sneasel was knocked out.

"You've got great kiai Ash as I thought you would." Candice said. She returned Sneasel and sent Medicham out.

Ash returned Gallade and sent his Froslass out.

"Medicham is weak against ghost type moves." Zoey said. "But Ash will have to watch out for Fire Punch."

"Ash will pull through. He always does." Brock said.

Ash made the first move.

"Froslass, Shadow Ball." He said.

"Medicham use Confusion to send that back." Candice said.

Medicham's Confusion stopped the Shadow Ball in it's tracks and sent the attack back to Froslass.

"Attack it with Ice Shard." Ash said.

The ice shards collided with the shadow ball, creating a small explosion.

"Quick, use Ominous Wind Froslass." Ash said.

Froslass released a Ominous Wind attack that hit Medicham.

"Medicham, use Fire Punch." Candice said.

"Counter it with Water Pulse, Froslass." Ash said.

As Medicham charged at Froslass to use Fire Punch, it quickly created a ball of water to use as a shield. Thanks to that the Fire Punch didn't connect completely.

"Ash really knows how to perform surprise attacks." Zoey said.

"Told you." Brock smiled.

"Froslass, Shadow Ball." He ordered.

This time Medicham was hit by the attack.

It was thrown back into a iceberg and then fainted.

"You really impress me Ash." Candice admitted.

"You haven't seen anything yet, Candice." Ash said.
Learning a Lesson

It had been quiet lately following the defeat of the recent Shadow Rider.

Most of the Blues however hadn't changed the way they act towards the Slifer's and Ra's.

Fortunately some of them decided to do something about it.

"Looks like they need to learn the hard way." Kaoru said to herself.

She and her siblings were going to cooperate with Ryan.

They headed in the direction of his room and knocked on his door.

"Can I help you?" He asked after opening it.

"We would like your help to deal with the rest of the Obelisks." Kaoru stated.

"Frankly things haven't changed a bit." Davis said.

"And I'm gonna be leaving soon as part of the graduating class and I don't want Tyson to have to deal with this kind of crap when he arrives next year." Arisa added.

"Why come to me? Wouldn't Zane be a better person to handle this?" Ryan questioned.

"Zane's about to graduate and so is Arisa." Davis said. "The only catch is Arisa wants to go into law school in case her dreams of becoming a professional duelist don't work out."

"And besides you're the only other Obelisk boy we trust." Kaoru said.

"That's a lot to put on one person, but I'll try my best." He held his hand on the back of his neck.

"Don't worry, we're going to help you." Davis said.

"Well, count me in." He replied.

"Good to know." Kaoru nodded.

With that settled, their plan could now commence.

"Where should we go first?" He asked.

"Start with the Blues who bully students from the lower ranks." Davis said.

That was a good way to begin.

Their first target was Raizou.

They found him walking down the hall.

"Hey." Kaoru called out.

"What do you want?" Raizou rudely asked.

"We want you to stop bullying the Slifer's and Ra's." Davis told him.

"Yeah right." He scoffed. "Go away."

Raizou wasn't going to be bossed around by them.

He walked away from them.

"What? Are you a coward?"

He turned and angrily looked at her.

"Fine, you wanna a duel. Let's go."
Griseous Orb

After the encounter with Team Galactic, the gang visited Angie at her family's Pokemon day care center in Solaceon Town. They were just about to leave but Ash stopped everything and took out his Master Ball.

"What's wrong Ash?" Dawn asked.

"Please be quiet. It's Mewtwo. He's contacting me to tell me to go to the Solaceon Ruins." Ash said.

"Mewtwo may have news for us." Brock added. "We better get to the Solaceon Ruins."

Once they got to the ruins, Mewtwo was outside waiting for them. He held a weird yellow orb in his arms.

"What happened Mewtwo?" Ash asked.

*'I informed Giratina about Team Galactic and their intent to use Dialga and Palkia to create a new world by destroying this one.'* Mewtwo said. *'Giratina was not happy to hear this and then I said you needed it's help.'*

"Did Giratina agree to help us fight Team Galactic when we need it." Ash said.

*'It did and it gave me this. The Griseous Orb.'* Mewtwo said.

He held the orb up.

"Hey I've seen this orb before." Ash said. "Back when I was still in the Reverse World. Giratina used this orb to recover after it had been injured."

"That must mean this orb is connected to Giratina like the Adamant and Lustrous Orbs are connected to Dialga and Palkia." Brock said.

"Wow, who knew Giratina would have it's own orb." Dawn said.

"So it's obvious we will need this orb to summon Giratina when we need it to fight Team Galactic in the event they do summon Dialga and Palkia." Ash said.

He remembered last time and took it from Mewtwo's arms.

"Good work Mewtwo."

"Can I rest in the Master Ball for a while?" He asked Ash.

Ash then returned him.

"Okay guys, we have Giratina's orb the Griseous Orb as proof he'll help us. Remember we never tell anyone about this until the time is right. Agreed?"

"Agreed." Brock, Tomo and Dawn nodded.

Ash then put the Griseous Orb in his backpack and then he and the others got ready to leave Solaceon Town again.

To him it was history repeating itself, but on a much different scale.
Tomo's Third Gym Battle

So with Maylene regaining her confidence thanks to Dawn, she was ready to battle Tomo and Ash. Tomo was up first and Ash was sitting on the sideline with Pikachu, Growlithe, Lucario, Dawn and Brock. Dawn was in her cheer-leading outfit to cheer for Tomo and Maylene. She had Piplup, Buneary, Pachirisu, Ambipom, Smoochum and Clefairy with her and they were dressed in cheer-leading outfits and held pom-poms too. The rules for this gym battle were the same as yesterday's battle; a three on three Pokemon battle.

Maylene sent a Machoke out to battle first. Tomo sent his Xatu out to battle first.

"As Xatu is a psychic/flying type, it has a major advantage over Machoke." Ash said.

"Let's see how Maylene will do with this." Brock said.

"Xatu, Peck." Machoke used Brick Break to defend itself from Peck.

"Xatu, use Psychic on Machoke." Tomo said.

Xatu's eyes glowed blue then she lifted Machoke into the air and dropped him to the ground again.

"Oh no Machoke." Maylene said.

Machoke was still able to battle.

"Good Machoke. Now use Seismic Toss."

"Xatu, Quick Attack." Tomo ordered before Machoke could grab onto Xatu to use Seismic Toss. Xatu managed to get away.

"Now Xatu, show Machoke your Drill Peck." Tomo said.

Xatu pecked Machoke really hard with her beak and it fainted.
Meeting Nando

On the way to Jublife City, Dawn was showing the boys her Buneary and shiny Ariados, and she told them how she captured Ariados.

"Wow Dawn." Ash said. "I say that's lucky because when I caught my Ariados in Johto I had to battle it. And you getting a shiny Pokemon on your first day is lucky too."

"Do you have any shiny Pokemon Ash?" Dawn asked.

"Yes my Noctowl, my Milotic, my Aggron and my Arcanine are shiny too." Ash answered.

Dawn was amazed.

"Are you going to use any of them in contests Ash?" Dawn asked.

Ash told her that he would only use Pokemon he caught in Sinnoh and the Pokemon he caught in Kanto for the contests and gym battles.

"All of my older and stronger Pokemon have had their turn in leagues, contests and other competitions, so now it's my new Pokemon's turn to shine."

"I think I've got the message." Dawn said.

She didn't fully understand it, but this was Ash's choice not hers.

Suddenly they saw the move Sunny Day with gleaming rays in the sky.

"There must a Pokemon nearby." Ash said. "Let's check it out."

They didn't need to go anywhere as the Pokemon that was using Sunny Day came up to them; it was a Budew. A man who was a minstrel was standing by it; he was Budew's trainer. He had a golden harp in the shape of a Mew. The man introduced himself and said his name was Nando and the gang introduced themselves to him. Nando explained that he and his Budew were going around bringing joy to everyone.

"Can we battle?" Dawn asked Nando.

She wanted to show the boys how strong she had gotten.

"Are you on a quest to battle the Sinnoh League, Dawn?" Nando asked.

"No, I am on a quest to win the Grand Festival." Dawn answered.

Nando accepted the challenge and suggested they do a contest battle.

So Dawn and Nando got into position for their battle. Ash and Tomo wondered if Dawn will be alright since this was her first battle, but this was a good start to try battling. Dawn sent her Piplup out to battle Budew. That wasn't the best choice of course since water was weak to grass, but Dawn was more in sync with Piplup than her other two Pokemon.

"Use Peck." Dawn told Piplup.
Before the Creation Trio

*One night...*

Ash, Brock and Dawn had the same dream. In the dream Azelf, Mesprit and Uxie appeared to them, physically this time.

"We finally meet." Ash said.

"Wow, you three look so cute." Dawn added.

"I do wonder why you appeared to us." Brock inquired.

The lake guardians started to talk, worried.

"What is it?" Ash asked.

"If you have something to say, please tell us." Dawn begged.

Suddenly the area turned a nasty blackish-red color and a dark red shadow appeared to grab Azelf, Uxie and Mesprit. The lake guardians tried to run away from the shadow but it was no use and Ash, Brock and Dawn couldn't do anything about it.

Just then the dreams ended and Ash, Brock and Dawn woke up with a fright.

"What's going on?" Tomo asked. He was woken up by the others.

"What a dream." Dawn said. "I saw Mesprit and the other lake guardians."

"I did too." Brock added. "And I saw a shadow."

"We all had the same dream." Ash continued. "And from the looks of that shadow capturing them that must mean they're in danger and the dream was a warning."

The others believed his words.

His words turned out to be accurate as Hunter J and her crew appeared at Lake Valor on their ship. They were going after Azelf first.

"Prepare to drop the Galactic bomb." Hunter J said.

She had a big bomb attached to her ship; this bomb had been constructed by Team Galactic and they gave it to J for the purpose of capturing the lake guardians.
Ash has a talk with Mewtwo

The gang camped out in the middle of nowhere. They had just left Alamos Town. Because of an incident that took place there, Dawn couldn't stop thinking about their visit.

"I must ask?" She asked the boys. "Was that incident with Dialga and Palkia like the incidents you told me about."

"Yes, but normally it's a bad guy behind the incidents." Brock said.

"Yeah but there was no bad guy this time at fault in Alamos Town." Ash said.

"Except Baron Alberto." Tomo joked.

The others laughed.

"I have to say." Brock said. "We did get Dialga and Palkia to stop fighting, but we never found out why they were fighting with each other."

"You're right Brock." Ash nodded. "But we'll probably find out why the next time we see them. I have a feeling that somehow we may end up meeting Dialga and Palkia again."

Dawn hoped if they did it wouldn't have anything to with another raging battle.

Because of what happened in Alamos Town, Ash decided to have a conversation with Mewtwo. He walked away from the others and took out his Master Ball.

*'Mewtwo, it's Ash.'* He said.

Mewtwo was flying over a forest when he heard Ash's telepathic message.

*'Ash.'* Mewtwo said. *'I've heard from wild Pokemon that a disturbance happened in a place called Alamos Town. What happened?'*

Ash informed Mewtwo about the fight between Dialga and Palkia.

*'They have stopped fighting now because of a song called Oracion, which has the ability to calm down raging Pokemon. But I have the feeling we'll meet them again.'*

*'Did someone do anything to them to make them fight each other?'* Mewtwo asked.

He remembered the confrontation between Groudon and Kyogre.

*'No there was no bad guy controlling them.' Ash said. 'And the others and I never found out what caused them to fight each other.'*

Mewtwo frowned.

*'Mewtwo I fear that Brock, Tomo, Dawn and I will go through rough times here in the Sinnoh Region.'* Mewtwo believed that as well and he promised to immediately tell Ash if he felt any disturbance with Dialga and Palkia again.

After speaking to Mewtwo, Ash rejoined the others. So there were three things to deal with during the journey in Sinnoh. Deal with Hunter J, find out about Team Rocket and find out the deal between Dialga and Palkia was all about.
More Fossil Pokemon

*The next day..*.

The gang visited the Oreburgh Museum with Roark. At the Oreburgh Museum there was an exhibition of a giant slab of coal, old tools and helmets miners used in the old days and also an exhibition of fossils. To the gang's surprise they learned that the museum resurrects fossil Pokemon from fossils with three special machines called the fossil-reviving machines and keeps the Pokemon after reviving them from the fossils.

"It's been a while since we were near fossils Brock, Tomo?" Ash said.

"You're right." Brock said. "We haven't seen fossils since we were in the Hoenn region."

"Oh, you kids have seen fossils before?" A man asked.

This man was the museum director Dr. Kenzo.

"The truth is I have a Aerodactyl, Kabutops, Omastar, Armaldo and Cradily." Ash said.

"I have a Kabuto, Omanyte, Anorith and Lileep." Tomo said.

"And I have a Kabutops, Omastar, Anorith and Lileep." Brock said.

Roark and Dr. Kenzo were surprised to hear that.

Dawn already knew this because they told her earlier.

"Well you kids should come to the mine with me." Roark said. "I can show you more fossils there."

Ash, Tomo and Brock accepted the offer, but Dawn wanted to go to the Pokemon Center.

"Okay, we'll see you back at the Pokemon Center after we've finished visiting the mine." Brock said.

So the boys went with Roark to the mine and Dawn went to the Pokemon Center.

In the museum there was trouble.
Training School

Not long after the conclusion of the Pokemon ping pong tournament the gang finally arrived in Snowpoint City. Johanna sent the gang new warmer clothing as Snowpoint City was a very cold place. She sent Ash, Tomo and Brock blue jackets while Dawn was sent a red coat, pink boots and a white scarf.

Right now the gang was meeting up with Zoey who also made it to Snowpoint City. She missed her hometown and decided to visit it.

"It's been a while since we last saw you Zoey." Brock said. "The last time we encountered each other was when we met Fantina."

"That's right." Zoey said. "Ash, I know you lost against her in the practice battle, but what about your official gym battle?"

"Tomo and I won our gym badges from Fantina." Ash said.

He and Tomo showed the badges to Zoey. She was happy for them and welcomed the gang to Snowpoint City.

"Wow Zoey, Snowpoint City looks so pretty." Dawn said.

"Yeah I love Snowpoint City." Zoey said. "It's so peaceful and quiet."

Zoey and the gang were about to enter Snowpoint City, but then a big green and white Pokemon appeared and fired an Ice Shard towards the group.

"Glameow, go!" Zoey commanded.

Glameow broke the shard with Iron Tail.

"Alright what was that all about?" Ash said.

Dawn looked the Pokemon up on her Pokedex.

"Abombasnow, the Frost Tree Pokemon and the evolved form of Snover. It whips up blizzards in mountains that are always buried in snow. It is the abominable snowman."

"Could this Abombasnow be a wild Pokemon?" Brock asked.

"That is incorrect." A voice said.

The voice came from a girl sitting on a tree branch.

"Welcome back Zo-Zo and Glameow." The girl said.

"It's always a wild welcome from you isn't it Miss Senior?" Zoey questioned.

The girl noticed Dawn's snow outfit and wouldn't stop talking about how cute it was.

"Where did you buy it?" She asked.

"My mom made it." Dawn replied.

"Miss Senior, you should be introducing yourself." Zoey interrupted.

"Oh yes, that's right." The girl said. "I am Candice and I am the leader of the Snowpoint Gym."

Ash and Tomo were happy to hear this. They introduced themselves to Candice.

"Can we challenge you to a gym battle?" They asked.

Candice was happy to know that she had two challengers because she hadn't had any challengers for a while. Apparently because Snowpoint City was a cold place and way up north, challengers didn't come to Candice's gym much.

"What a silly excuse." Ash said. "I've been to all sorts of gyms no matter where they are, including ones in very cold places or very hot places."

"That's just how some people are, Ash." Brock said.

Battle Castle

Today the gang walked through a grassy field in the middle of nowhere. Ash was looking at a map Matt gave him. This map was to direct him to where the first Sinnoh battle facility was.

"So Ash, are you excited about this first battle facility?" Dawn asked.

"Oh yes, it will be great to challenge another Battle Frontier." Ash said.

"You'll have to prepare yourself Ash." Brock said. "No doubt these Frontier Brains will be as tough as the ones back in Kanto."

Ash agreed, but he still couldn't wait to start challenging the Sinnoh Battle Frontier.

Suddenly a navy blue sports car drove up to the gang. It was Matt.

"Hi there, kids." Matt said.

"Hey Matt." Ash said. "Are you here to watch me challenge the first battle facility?"

He had a feeling that Matt would want him to challenge the battle facilities, like Scott did and he was right as Matt did want to watch him. Matt offered to give the gang a lift and the gang accepted the offer. Ash, Tomo and Brock feared that Matt would be a speeder like Scott was in his sports car. But the good news was Matt drove normally. Matt drove the gang to a magnificent stone castle with a big flower garden.

"Ash, this is the first battle facility. The Battle Castle." He said.

"Wow it's gorgeous." Dawn said.

"Well, here we go." Ash said.

He felt ready for this.

Matt and the gang walked up to the castle and Ash called out.

"I'm here to challenge you to a battle."

It was then the castle doors opened and a smart-looking butler came out.
Tomo's Birthday

Today the gang was in Transit Town, but they were not taking a ferry back to Olivine City yet. It was because today was a special day; it was Tomo's tenth birthday, so today the gang was taking a day off to celebrate Tomo's birthday. Tomo was happy to be ten years old; it meant he could truly be a Pokemon trainer like his brother Ash.

That morning, Tomo was playing with Growlithe and Togepi in the gardens of the Pokemon Center while the others were setting up birthday tea in the Pokemon Center. Ash thanked Nurse Joy for allowing them to celebrate Tomo's birthday in the Pokemon Center.

"No problem at all." Nurse Joy said. "Lots of birthdays have been held here in the Pokemon Center in the past."

"Oh Nurse Joy." Ash said. "Is the special present for Tomo ready as well?"

"Yes, everything is all ready for Tomo." Nurse Joy replied.

Ash had a special present organized for Tomo. Misty and Brock knew about the special present too and they couldn't wait to see Tomo's face once he knew what it was.

By lunchtime, Tomo and the others were now enjoying Tomo's birthday tea. There were lots of sandwiches, cakes, ice cream and orange soda and there was also a birthday cake. The birthday cake had the picture of a Growlithe on it. Ash, Misty and Brock wished Tomo a happy tenth birthday and Tomo was happy. Delia called the Pokemon Center and wished Tomo a happy birthday too as did Prof. Oak.

After finishing the birthday tea, it was now time for Tomo to open his birthday presents. Ash got Tomo a plush toy of an Arcanine. Misty got Tomo a headband which had pictures of flames on it. Brock got Tomo a yellow t-shirt which had a picture of a Teddiursa on it. Tomo thanked Ash, Misty and Brock because he really loved the presents. Delia sent Tomo a jacket which had a picture of a Pichu. From Prof. Oak, Tomo received his own Pokedex. Tomo was thrilled to get his own Pokedex.

Then it was time for Tomo's special birthday present. Nurse Joy came up to the gang with a tray that was carrying six Poke Balls.

"What are these Poke Balls for?" Tomo asked.

"This Tomo." Ash smiled. "Is your special birthday present. These six Poke Balls contain the three Kanto starter Pokemon and the three Johto starter Pokemon. For your special present; you get to choose one of Kanto's starter Pokemon and one of Johto's starter Pokemon."

"You mean, I will have my own starter Pokemon?" Tomo asked. "Really?"

"That's correct." Ash said.

Tomo beamed with happiness.

"Okay Tomo, what's your choice." Nurse Joy said.

"I've always wanted a Charmander and a Totodile." Tomo said.

"Very well then." Nurse Joy smiled.

Nurse Joy gave the Poke Balls containing Charmander and Totodile to Tomo.

Tomo released his new Charmander and Totodile from their Poke Balls and greeted them. Charmander and Totodile were happy to see their new trainer. Ash, Misty and Brock smiled at the scene, happy to know Tomo was pleased with his present.

For the rest of the afternoon, Tomo played with his new Charmander and Totodile as well as with Mareep, Growlithe and Togepi. Today had been Tomo's best birthday ever.
Tomo's Second Sinnoh Gym

*The next day...*

It was time for Tomo to battle Gardenia. Thanks to the time he had, Tomo was prepared for this gym battle.

"I wonder what Pokemon Tomo is going to use?" Dawn said.

"Well since he saw what I was up against yesterday, I'm sure he's picked the right Pokemon for it." Ash said.

The rules were as normal a three on three Pokemon battle.

Gardenia sent out her Cherubi and Tomo sent out his Ninjask.

"Aerial Ace." Tomo told Ninjask.

Cherubi dodged it thanks to it's speed. Today was a bright sunny day too.

"Ninjask is going to have trouble with Cherubi's speed." Dawn said.

"No need to worry Dawn. Look." Ash said.

Dawn looked and noticed Ninjask was glowing white and it was flying faster than normal.

"That's Ninjask's Speed Boost ability." Ash said. "It allows a Pokemon to move faster than normal each turn."

"Oh I see, then it will catch up with Cherubi's speed." Dawn said.

"Cherubi, Magical Leaf." Gardenia ordered.

Ninjask cut through the leaves with Slash. Then it slashed Cherubi with X-Scissor.

"Now finish it off with Aerial Ace, Ninjask." Tomo said.

Ninjask tackled Cherubi fast and hard and it fainted.

Gardenia returned Cherubi and sent out Turtwig. Tomo knew he had to watch out for Turtwig as well as Roserade.

"Ninjask, use Aerial Ace." He said.
