Note: I don't own Pokémon or anything but the storyline (feel like my English is good now)
Ash was asleep, dreaming about a battle
It was against Lance
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt"
"Dragonite, use Dragon Claw!"
Dragonite rushed up to Pikachu, hit it right in the neck. Pikachu still got off the Thunderbolt though
"Use Flamethrower!"
"Counter with Iron Tail!"
Iron Tail slashed through the Flamethrower and hit Dragonite
"Now use Electro Ball!"
"Use Dragon Pulse!"
The 2 moves caused an explosion
"Finish with Hyper Beam"
"THUNDERBOLT!"
This caused a massive explosion, with both Pokémon still standing, until Dragonite fell over
"Pikachu! We won!"
"Pika!"
Ash then woke up.
He realized it was just a dream.
It was 4 am, with everyone asleep
He decided to get some fresh air, thinking things through
"Will I ever become a Pokémon Master?"
He had flashbacks of all his league losses, his friends and Pokémon betraying him.
"Maybe they're right, I'm shit anyways."
"Who said that?"
"Professor!"
"Ash, listen here. If you were shit, then how come you placed 2nd in the Kalos League? Became a Hero in most regions you traveled to, befriended so many Pokémon, beat many legendaries."
"Guess your right"
"Ya know, I have a dream. And that's to start a Pokémon League right here in Alola."
"Really?!"
"Yep. Countless people said forget it, it'll never happen. But I never gave up. You were chosen by Tapu Koko and given a Z ring."
"Thanks professor"
"I hope to see you participate in the league and make it far."
"I'm not gonna make it far."
Kukui frowned
"I'm gonna win the whole thing!"
"Now that's what I like to hear!"
"Sorry for waking you up."
"It's nothing, let's go back to sleep and then we'll train tomorrow."
9 am:
"Alright Ash, ready?"
"Yes, now Trumbeak, I choose you!"
"Beak!"
"Come on out, Braviary!"
"Braviary!"
"Start off with Flame Charge"
"Use Brave Bird!"
The 2 moves kept on colliding, wearing both Pokémon out
"Now then, use Steel Wing!"
"Wing Attack!"
Both birds kept on hitting each other, hoping to get a severe blow
"Now use Rock Slide"
Braviary threw some rocks at Trumbeak, but Ash had a plan for this
"Use your Wing Attack to hit the rocks back!"
Trumbeak quickly deflected the rocks
"Now then, use Quick Attack"
At an incredible speed, Trumbeak hit Braviary in the stomach.
"Now then" Said Ash as he placed his Flyinium Z into the Z-ring.
He and Trumbeak did the pose, surrounding themselves with a light blue Aura
"Use Super Sonic Skystrike full power!"
"Grr, use Brave Bird!"
The 2 attacks collided, with Trumbeak easily beating Braviary.
When the smoke cleared, Braviary was unable to battle.
"You were great Braviary. Now take a good rest."
"Ary"
"You to Trumbeak"
"Anyways Ash, I'm sorry to bail on you but I have a debate to go to."
"Alright Professor, I'm gonna go find some people to battle."
"Alright then Ash, have a good day"
"You too!"
"Alright, heard there's gonna be a battle event here."
"Zz- so who do you plan on using?"
"Rockruff"
"Okay then"
"Anybody up for a battle?!" Yelled a confident boy
"I am."
"Alright then! We have a challenger!"
"Send out your Pokémon- what's you name?"
"Ash."
"Of Hau'oli"
"Alright then Ash of Hau'oli, send out your Pokémon!"
"I'm Hiroki by the way."
"Rockruff, I choose you!"
"Ruff!"
"A rock type eh? Mudbray!"
"Bray"
"Ha! I have the advantage, this'll be an easy victory."
"Rotom, who's that Pokémon?"
"Mudbray, the Donkey Pokémon. A ground type. Possessing mighty power, Mudbray can be loaded with 50 times its own body weight and will be totally fine."
"Alright Rockruff, start of with Rock Throw"
"Counter with Mud Bomb!"
The 2 moves cancelled each other out
"Use Tackle!" Both trainers yelled simultaneously
Both Pokémon hit each other with their full force, refusing to give in.
"Use Bite"
Rockruff bit Mudbray on its right front leg.
"Use Double Kick!"
Mudbray hit Rockruff in the face, knocking him back
"Use Rock throw"
"Use Mud Slap!"
This time, Mud Slap overpowered Rock throw and hit Rockruff, doing massive damage to him
"Let's finish this Rockruff!"
"Ruff!"
Ash and Rockruff did the pose for the Z move, surrounding themselves in a white aura
"Use Breackneck Blitz full power!"
Rockruff easily beat Mudbray, winning Ash the battle.
"Aww man, nice one though. Congrats and let's battle again some time."
"Agreed"
"Who's next?!"
"I am, if you don't mind."
The person that sad this was a tall, blonde boy. He had light green eyes. He wore a black sweat shirt with rips on his arms. He had an Umbreon beside him
"Names Gladion."
"Alright Gladion, so anyone else?"
"I will!"
"Ah yes, sailor Konu."
"So it's Konu vs Gladion. Send out your Pokémon!"
"Lycanroc, show your crimson red glare"
Out popped a midnight form Lycanroc out of an Ultra Ball.
"Roc"
"That's one badass Lycanroc"
"Agreed"
"Ruff!"
"Rockruff sure has taken an interest in that Lycanroc."
"Your right Rotom"
"Blastoise!"
"Toise"
"Start off with Hydro Pump"
"Stone Edge"
Stone edge managed to overpower Hydro Pump, damaging Blasoise
"Use Dark Pulse!"
Blastoise launched a Dark pulse at Lycanroc, but Lycanroc immediately moved back to dodge
"Use Swords Dance"
Lycanroc surrounded himself with Swords, boosting his attack
"Now use Crunch"
Lycanroc but Blastoise on the arm, causing it to cry out in pain
"Grr, use Skull Bash"
"Counter"
Lycanroc glowed in a red aura and hit Blastoise in the stomach as it was about to hit him.
Blastoise was knocked back so hard, it immediately fainted
"Blastoise is unable to battle! Lycanroc wins!"
"Wow that's one badass Lycanroc"
"Hey! Gladion!"
"Ash?! What the fuck are you doing!?"
But Gladion already left.
Ash chased after Gladion, catching his attention
"Oh, need anything?"
"Yes, I'd like to ask for a battle."
"A battle?"
"I'll think about it."
"If it helps, I'm Ash Ketchum"
Gladion flinched
"THE Ash Ketchum?!?!?!"
"Quiet down, and yes. I'll explain everything if you have a battle with me."
"And might I add, Tapu Koko gave me my Z-ring and Waterium Z."
"I'll think about it. Where are you staying "Ash Ketchum"?"
"Professor Kukui's house."
"And what proof do you have?"
"Not much, other than this" he said as he threw a Pokéball
"Vine"
"Ask Kahuna Hala of you want."
"I believe you I guess."
"Alright, even if you weren't Ash Ketchum seeing how you got a Z-ring from Tapu Koko?!"
"I'll think about it."
"Gladion!" Yelled a familiar voice
"Lillie?!" Both of them yelled at the excact same time
"What are you doing here Big Brother?!"
"BiG bRoThEr?!?!?!" Yelled Ash and Rotom
"Hold on, you 2 are siblings?!?!" Yelled a Rotom
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Looks like me and Rotom are both stupid."
"Shut your mouth Ash!" Yelled Rotom
"So how's your training?"
"Doing fine, made a new ally."
"And it looks like Eevee evolved!"
"Breon"
"Hold on, you can touch Pokémon now!"
"Yes, Snowy here is my first Pokémon. I raised her from an egg. It's all thanks to Ash in part of course."
"And did he get a Z-Ring from Tapu Koko?"
"Yes"
"And he's Ash Ketchum?"
"Of course."
"Take care of Snowy" said Gladion as he petted Snowy
"Pix"
"But Master Gladion! You should come home and catch up with us"
"Thanks, but no thanks Hobbs. I have some things to do."
Not to far away:
"That blonde boy with that Lycanroc and Umbreon sure is cool"
"Your right Tupp, he'd make an excellent addition to Team Skull"
"Shut up Rapp!"
"Yo yo yo, what the fuck Zipp?!"
"I'm watching something"
"What are you watching?"
"None of your business"
"I'll go find Hau and battle him!"
"Ok Ash, after that what are your plans?"
"Hope Gladion accepts!"
"Hope you don't get your heart broken"
"He's not gonna decline a battle with me"
After heading to Iki town, Ash found Hau
"Hey Ash, just finished packing my things. You up for a battle?"
"Hell ya I am, also have you heard of the guy named Gladion with a Lycanroc and Umbreon?"
"Yep, he's all anyone talks about!"
"I challenged him to a battle and he said he'll think about it."
"Lucky! Anyways, where do you wanna battle?"
"Let's go to Professor Kukui's house, just make sure your gramma and grampa know."
"Grams and Gramps will be fine with it, I'll just ask Selene to tell them."
"Hey Selene! Tell Grams and Gramps I'll spend the night at Professor Kukui's house!"
"Alright then, bye!"
"Bye Selene!"
"Will he be fine with me spending the night?"
"I think so"
"Let's head over to the beach"
The 2 boys made it to the beach and met Professor Kukui
"Hey Professor, is it okay if Hau spends the night here?"
"Of course, but is it fine with Hala?"
"Selene told them and they haven't said anything yet."
"Alright, I was just gonna talk to him so I'll ask, if you 2 need anything tell me."
"Alright thank Professor!" Both yelled simultaneously
"How about a double battle Ash?"
"Sounds good to me, Servine and Rowlet I choose you!"
"Vine"
"Koo!"
"In that case, come on out Pichu and Noibat!"
"Chu"
"Bat"
"Start off with Attract on Pichu and Peck on Noibat!"
Both Pokémon did as ordered, immobilizing Pichu and damaging Noibat
"Noibat, use Air Cutter and Pichu use Thunderbolt"
Pichu was immobilized by love, unable to move and Noibat got her move off
"Rowlet, counter with Leafage and Servine use Leaf Storm on Pichu!"
Leafage was overpowered by Air cutter, and Leaf Storm did massive damage to Pichu
"Now then, Rowlet use Tackle on Pichu and Servine Vine Whip on Noibat!"
"Use Dragon Pulse and Tackle!"
Rowlet and Pichu met, clashing each other and Noibat tried using Dragon Pulse, but it failed
Servine soon hit Noibat, knocking her out.
"You were great Noibat. Take a nice rest."
Hau didn't expect much of Noibat yet, after all she is still VERY young and hasn't mastered most of her moves.
"Alright Pichu, its up to you."
"Chu"
"Alright then, let's use a Z-move!"
Hau replaced his Decidium Z with a Normalium Z, doing the pose.
"Use Breackneck Blitz!"
"Counter with Leaf Storm then when it's almost over use Leaf Blade. Rowlet, use Double Team and then Peck"
To
Pichu was at first overpowering Servine and Rowlet, but then was quickly overpowered
Pichu was finally unable to battle.
"Hey Pichu, you did great. Your Z move was on point!"
"Chu"
Hau returned Pichu, now looking at Ash
"Hey, great battle. You guys really are something else. But next one is mine!"
"Agreed and not if I can do anything about it"
Ash and Hau both started laughing
Kukui then showed up.
"Hi Professor, anything interesting happen?"
"No, not really. How'd your battle go?"
"Ash won with Rowlet and Servine against Pichu and Noibat."
"Congratulation to you Ash, and Hala agreed to have you stay but I also have your luggage."
"Thanks Professor, will he be at the port?"
"Yes"
"Hey Ash, what should we do?"
"Let's watch TV"
They flipped through the channels, until they got interested in something
It was an interview with Cynthia
"So Ms. Cynthia, what are your thoughts on the Ash Ketchum situation?"
"Ash was a great trainer, friend, and person in general. He had many strong and reliable partners like his Infernape, Sceptile, his infamous Greninja and of course his partner Pikachu. I hope he and Snivy are alright and safe."
"Do you have any good memories with him?"
"My favorite one was witnessing his battle with Paul of Veilstone in person, 2 opposite sin the Quarter finals of the Sinnoh League. It was a beautiful battle that was more meaningful to people who witnessed their rivalry, also meeting him in Unova was really amazing. I only wish him the best of luck."
"Holy shit Ash! You met THE Cynthia?!?!?!?!" Yelled Kukui, Hau, and Rotom.
"Yep. We're good friends."
"Your the luckiest man alive Ash!"
"Thanks Professor."
"We should watch some battles!"
"I'm down"
They were scrolling through the channels, until they saw something about the Cerulean gym
"We will be airing a gym battle against Trip of Nuvema town in the Unova region! It will be 2 on 2"
"Hmm, this should be easy, come in out, Luxray!"
Trip had travelled to Sinnoh while Ash was in Kalos, he got to the top 8.
Luxray was his ace of Sinnoh, his strongest behind Serperior.
"Come on out, Seismatoad!"
This was Ashs former Palpitoad.
"So he evolved eh"
"That's your Palpitoad I'm guessing"
"Right on spot Professor."
"And that's also your main rival in Unova, Trip."
"Also correct Hau"
"Start off with Muddy Water!"
Seismitoad released a huge wave of brown water, with Trip not really caring
"Protect"
Luxray surrounded itself with a huge green Sphere.
"Ice Fang"
Luxray's teeth grew an ice color, biting on Seismitoad
"Use Hydro Pump"
"Thunderbolt"
Hau was shocked, but Ash and Kukui knew it was just to have Hydro pump not do damage
"Crunch!"
"Use Mud Shot"
Mud shot hit first, knocking Luxray back but it quickly hit back, proving its strength
"You've clearly raised your Luxray well."
"Same for "your" Seismitoad."
Misty knew he had some information, and she didn't like it.
"Use Sludge Wave"
Seismitoad surrounded himself with a dark purple liquid and charged at Luxray, pushing it back
"Finish with Ice Fang"
Luxray bit into Seismitoad, knocking him out.
"Seismitoad is unable to battle, Luxray wins!"
"You were great Seismitoad"
"Good job Luxray, take a break."
Trip returned Luxray, shocking Misty
"Why'd you do that?!"
"To give someone else a chance to battle."
Misty sent out Gyarados, while Trip sent out Serperior
"Gyarados, Mega evolve!"
Gyarados started to grow in size, growing a huge black fin on his back
"Use Rain Dance"
"Energy Ball"
Gyarados used Rain Dance, but at a cost of getting hit with an Energy ball.
"Use Hurricane"
"Dodge"
But Hurricane was to fast, being in Rain and hit Serperior
"Use Frenzy Plant"
Serperior launched huge vines at Gyarados, doing massive damage
"Crunch"
"Dodge then use Dragon Tail"
Serperior dodged at the last second, and smashed Gyarados into the water
"Use Hydro Pump"
Gyarados launched a huge beam of water at Serperior, throwing him into the water
"Swim through the water!"
Serperior swam through the water, being out of sight
"Use Hurricane"
Serperior was caught in the Hurricane, being trapped inside it.
Serperior was now low on energy, with him activating Overgrow
"It's Overgrow"
"Your right Ash, this battle might now be in Trip's advantage
"Use Energy Ball"
"Hydro Pump"
Thanks to Overgrow, Energy Ball overpowered Hydro Pump.
"Finish with Frenzy Plant"
Frenzy Plant quickly hit Gyarados, immediately knocking him out.
"Well Trip won, honestly not shocked."
"Why's that?" Asked Hau
"Trip's just a better trainer."
"Anyways, what should we do now?"
"I'll make dinner while you boys talk about whatever you want."
"Hey Ash, what is one Pokémon you want to catch?"
"I've always wanted an Espeon since it's my favorite of the Eevee evolutions."
"Alright, I'm gonna watch Laki so you 2 shut the fuck up."
"Let's go to where I sleep"
They went up the stairs to Ash's place.
"So, what's a Pokémon that you want to catch?"
"Definitely a Crabrawler like my gramps, and for it to evolve into a Crabominable."
"What's a Crabominable?"
"That's my cue!"
"Rotom, where the hell did you come from?"
"I heard you want to know about a Pokémon"
"Crabominable the Wooly Crab Pokémon and the evolved form of Crabrawler. A Ice and fighting type. It just throws punches indiscriminately. In times of desperation, it can lop off its own pincers and fire them like rockets.
"Now you 2 small brains go back to whatever you were doing. I'm going back to watching Laki."
"What the fuck do you mean by "small Brain"
"That just proves my point Hau."
The 2 boys went back to talking. They discussed battling, Pokémon, and their future goals.
"So what are your plans after the island challenge and league?"
"Haven't really thought about it. If I lose I'll just go to another region. Definitely plan on getting back all my loyal Pokémon. Even a few others I left with other trainers. So what are your plans?"
"If I don't win the league, go to another region like Sinnoh maybe. Heard they have a battle frontier like the Kanto one."
"That's cool."
"Hey Ash?"
"Ya Hau?"
"Will we be friends after we're done with our Alolan adventure?"
"Of course! Why do you ask?"
"You see, it's just that this is my first time having another friend my age that isn't Selene. You, Kiawe, Lana, Mallow, Lillie, and even Sophocles are my first friends other than Selene who I've known ever since I remember. I don't wanna lose that."
"Hey, don't sweat it. We'll always be friends, and since Alola is practically now my home, we'll still visit each other."
"Thanks. It's nice to know I'll always have my friends, family, and Pokémon."
"Ash! Hau! Dinner is ready!"
They had their dinner, with them both enjoying it.
"Professor, this is amazing!"
"Glad you like it Hau, anyways when you're done put your dishes away since I'm going to bed. Have a good night!"
"Thanks Professor! You to!"
The boys both went to bed about 20 minutes later, with Hau sleeping on the couch.
It was about 6 am when a dark, thin, Pokémon came onto the roof and had something in its mouth.
Servine noticed.
It was Gladion's Umbreon.
It dropped a letter to Servine, who quickly slapped the shit out of Ash.
"What the fuck was that for?"
"Vine" said Servine as she handed him the letter.
Meet me at the beach in 15 minutes if you are up for a battle. I'll be using Lycanroc against you. If your friend wants to battle, tell him I'll use Umbreon.
-Gladion
"Alright!" Yelled Ash
The idiot woke up Litten, Rowlet, Trumbeak, Rockruff, Pichu, Noibat, Dartrix, Hau, and Rotom
"Dude, its 6 am."
"Gladion agreed to battle me! He even offered to battle you!"
"Now you're talkin, Dartrix, you up for it?"
"Trix"
"He said he'd use Umbreon against you, and Lycanroc against me."
"Ruff!"
"You wanna battle Lycanroc I'm guessing huh Rockruff!"
"Ruff ruff"
"If any of you wanna watch, let's go."
None of Ash's Pokémon responded
"I've got to see this!" Yelled Rotom
"Any of you guys?"
Pichu and Noibat shook their heads.
"Let's go then!"
The 5 of them burst through the door
After 2 minutes, they met Gladion.
"Alola Gladion!" Yelled Ash, Hau, and Rotom
"Hello Ash and Hau."
"How do you know who I am?!"
"Your the Grandson of Kahuna Hala."
"Anyways, let's battle!"
"Is that fine if I go first Ash?"
"Of course."
"Let's go Umbreon."
"Dartrix, you to."
"Dark Pulse"
"Razor Leaf"
"When did it learn Razor Leaf?!"
"Training with Gramps"
The 2 moves Collided, but Dark Pulse overpowered Razor Leaf.
"Use Leaf Blade"
"Iron Tail"
Dartrix and Umbreon's attacks collided, being even but since Dartrix was in the air he overpowered Umbreon,
"Use Tackle"
"Quick Attack"
Both attacks collided with each other but Umbreon overpowered Dartrix
"Use Sky Attack"
Dartrix was charging in a golden light for about 20 seconds, Gladion didn't respond until the last second
"Use Shadow Ball"
Shadow Ball hit Dartrix
But he still got Sky Attack off.
"Dartrix, let's go." Said Hau as he placed him Normalium Z.
"Breackneck Blitz, GO!"
Gladion didn't respond
Breackneck Blitz hit Umbreon, but it was still standing
"Quick Attack and Iron Tail combo"
This was the finishing blow. Dartrix was unable to continue.
"Thanks Dartrix, you were great."
"Trix"
"Good battle. Ready Ash?"
"Yes, Rockruff I choose you!"
"Ruff"
"Lycanroc, show your crimson red glare!"
"Roc"
"Start off with Swords Dance"
"Use Rockthrow!"
Lycanroc got off Swords dance quickly, so he had time to respond
"Counter"
Lycanroc hit back the Rockthrows, but Ash quickly countered
"Use Tackle"
Rockruff dodged the Rock's coming his way, hitting Lycanroc in the stomach
"Use Crunch"
Lycanroc but rockruff, with his body being almost fully in Lycanroc's mouth.
"Use Bite on his arm."
Rockruff bit down on Lycanroc's arm, causing him pain.
"Use Stone Edge"
"Dodge on the left!"
Lycanroc hit 3 huge blue pillars on the ground, launching them at Rockruff but he dodged them quickly.
Just then, a huge net came and trapped Lycanroc.
"Roc?!"
"Yo yo yo, we captured an ultra powerful Lycanroc!" Yelled Tupp
"What the fuck? Not the wannabe gangsters again."
"Hey shut it blonde boy, we're not wanna be gangsters"
They started to drive off, but Rockruff quickly sprinted after them
"Whatever you say, Umbreon Dark Pulse"
"Use Rockthrow"
This ripped the net.
"What the fuck Zipp?! You said this was good!" Said a pissed off Tupp.
"Sorry sorry!"
Lycanroc was now free.
"Rockruff finish with-"
"Is it okay if we handle this?"
"Uh, sure Gladion."
Gladion activated his Z-ring, with there being a rock like color and a rock symbol inside it.
"The blue moon's Z-power washes over us, and the crumbling world"
Lycanroc and Gladion did a pose, they turned to the side, showing their ars near their head.
"Then seals it up, Now! Continental Crush!"
Lycanroc started to get a HUGE boulder over his head, then threw it at them.
"Oh shit, fuck this. Run!!!!!!!" Yelled Tupp.
But it hit them, causing them to blast off like Team Rocket.
"Woah, I'm guessing that was a Rock type Z-move, right?"
"Yes"
"I wanna use one also!"
"We'll beat Olivia. The Kahuna of Akala island."
"We planned on going there tomorrow so will we get a grand trial?!"
"You must pass a trial that Olivia assigns you first, then you can."
"Thank you Gladion, really."
"No problem."
"Can we finish this later? I have to get ready for Akala."
"Yes. Next time we meet. I can tel, your Rockruff is special."
"Thanks!"
Lycanroc started to pet Rockruff.
"Bye Gladion!"
"Bye Ash and Hau!"
Well that's it. Sorry for me making this a 4000 word chapter. Anyways now onto your reviews.
1. He will be dense for most of the series. Until he and Mallow get together. (If it helps, Ash won't be the most dense. That's gonna be Clemont.)
2. I hope I will make the Lurantis battle good. Ash and Mallow moments will be next chapter. Thanks and stay healthy.
Anyways, I hope you all have a great day/night/afternoon depending wherever you live. Stay healthy and safe. Also thank you all for reading this story, I promise the chapter after Akala will be a great one, with it being centered around the mystery character that will be a huge part of the story.
