Ash Ketchum and his friends were all sitting in the classroom discussing their new lesson. Today Lillie just returned to school after they saved her mother Lusamine from the Ultra Beasts with the help of Starcloud who evolved into Solgaleo, The legendary pokemon of Alola. Solgaleo vanished after they came back and Ash missed him. He was taking care of Solgaleo when he was a Cosmog. his first form and the name Rotom gave him. Ash was leaning on the rails to the school. Pikachu and his other pokemon, Litten, Lycanroc Rowlet and his newest pokemon Jangmo-o came to him after playing with the other pokemon. They too missed Starcloud and wondered where he was now. Jangmo-o was still honored to meet the Legendary Solgaleo. Ash and Kiawe battled the Totem Pokemon Kommo in order to reach the Altar of the Sunne. Komm-o gave them each a Dragonium-Z and Jangmo-o accompanied them.

Ash was looking at the Solganium-Z Crystal in his hand.

'Pika, Pikapi?' asked Pikachu rubbing his cheek on his trainers face.

'I didn't get a chance to say thank you or goodbye' said Ash looking at the crystal. He wondered where starcloud was now. he felt another pair of hands that are very soft on his. He looked into the eyes of Lillie. another thing that happened while ash was attending alola. He was helping Lillie get over her fear of touching pokemon. one day ash asked her out and she accepted. ever since then they have been dating with Gladions approval. "you miss Starcloud don't you" she asked.

"Yeah," He said softly.

Lillie smiled at him before she kissed his cheek. "No need to worry, Starcloud probably misses you too Ash,'' She said.

"How's your mother?" asked Ash.

"She's recovered well and is now back at the aether foundation." said Lillie with a smile. Kukui and the rest of the gang came inside the classroom. The lesson began and everyone sat down. Ash took a glance outside thinking of Starcloud and where he was now.

/Ultra Space,/

A roar was heard as A rock was smashed by a powerful Sunsteel Strike. Starcloud manage to destroy the rock with his attack.

"Very good my Son, You have mastered Sunsteel Strike very well" said Solgaleo. Lunala was beside him watching their son training. "What else is there i need to train on father?" asked Starcloud.

"Nothing, you have learned everything you can from me." said Solgaleo.

"What is it that you will do now son?" asked Lunala. Starcloud thought back to Ash and the gang. "I see you wish to go back to Ash." said Solgaleo.

"How did you?" asked Starcloud.

"We know you missed Ash after the moment you came to us a month ago. Your training is complete and you wont need us anymore." said Lunala. Her son has bonded well with the Chosen One.

"Go to your trainer son, He misses you as well." said Solgaleo with a smile.

Starcloud roared with a smile for he was going back to his other family. He felt one pokemon also connected to Ash. He can feel the pokemon's aura from Kalos. Starcloud after saying goodbye to his parents left Ultra space.

/Somewhere In Kalos/"

A dark red Vine came out of the ground and it was starting chaos until it was destroyed by a Water Shuriken. A bipedal frog pokemon called greninja. Watching him was two green blob pokemon. "That is it, the last of the Red Vines are vanquished," said Greninja. His year long mission was complete. Thank you for your help Greninja" said Z2.

"Your welcome Z2," said Greninja., "Now i can go back to Ash, Wherever he is?"

"I'm sure you will find him" said Squishy when a bright light appeared. They looked up to see a white lion with a mane resembling the sun. The pokemon roared before it landed right before them. "Solgaleo, What brings you to Kalos?" asked Z2.

Starcloud looked at Greninja before he said. "So your a friend to Ash?"

"How do you know him?" asked Greninja.

"He raised me when i was a baby" said Starcloud.

"Ash is in Alola!" said Squishy and Z2.

"Get on, Im going back to him as well" said Starcloud. Greninja hopped on the lions back and Greninja said goodbye to the cores. The two cores watched bewildered as they vanished back into a wormhole. "Shall we go to Bonnie, She has this amazing Massage technique she uses when im gathering sunlight" said Squishy before changing into his ten percent form.

"As long as she doesn't tickle me" said Z2 hopping on his back.

/Back with the gang. Three days later./

All of them were outside the school. It was lunch break and all their pokemon were playing except for Lycanroc and Litten. "Man i am so ready for the field trips Kukui has planned for us" said Hau. He was jumping up and down with excitement. His Dartrix slept beside Rowlet.

"Yeah, a chance to capture a lot of pokemon from the other regions. How cool is that" said Sophocles thinking about all the steel, Bug and electric type pokemon he can catch.

"The water pokemon, i can't wait to get popplio some friends" said Lana.

"The same with snowy." said Lillie.

"Just thinking about all the fire type pokemon that can become a powerhouse with my team" said Kiawe.

"The grass type pokemon are just to cute" said Mallow.

"Yeah not to mention that professor Kukui is marrying Professor Burnet" said Lillie before a bright flash came out of nowhere. Ash and the gang look up. "Can it be?" thought everyone.

Soon they all heard "LA-LEON!"

"It is!, Its Starcloud!" exclaimed Lillie pointing to Starcloud descending towards them. Starcloud landed before them as he roared a greeting before giving Ash a big wet lick with his yellow tongue. "I missed you buddy right pikachu" said Ash hugging the lions head. "Pikapi!" said Pikachu on head. Ash's other pokemon were happy to have him back. The alolan gang greeted him before they noticed Greninja jumping off him. "Rotom who's that pokemon?" asked Lana.

"Allow Me," said Rotom. "Greninja, the Ninja Pokémon, and the final evolved form of Froakie. Greninja can compress water into sharp-edged throwing stars. With the grace of a ninja, it slips in and out of sight to attack from the shadows."

When Ash heard that he looked to see Greninja. "Greninja!, Wow Starcloud you brought Greninja with you." said Ash. Greninja hugged his trainer and pikachu greeted him with a smile. "Is this your Greninja Ash?" asked Kiawe.

"Yeah he sure is, Greninja was the first pokemon i caught in Kalos." said Ash before he said. "So your mission is over, the Red vines are gone?"

"Ja!" said Greninja looking at them all. "Oh these are my friends, Hau, Kiawe, Lana, Mallow, Sophocles and Lillie, were dating" said Ash. Greninja thought his trainer would be with Serena. He gave them all a nod. "So how strong is he?" asked Hau.

"He's very strong," said Ash. "Say Ash, let's have a battle," said Kiawe wanting to find out how strong Greninja was. "Nator!" said Turtonator.

"What do you say Greninja? Up for a battle?" asked ash earning a determined look from Greninja. Kiawe and Ash took their place on the battlefield. A crowd of students gathered with Greninja and Turtonator on the battlefield. Starcloud was laying beside Lillie and the others. Kukui and Samson came outside as well. "Ready? Battle Begin!" said Mallow as the Ref.

"Turtonator use Flamethrower!" said kiawe. Turtonator spewed fire towards Greninja. "Greninja dodge and use Water Shuriken!" said Ash. Greninja dodged the attack with his speed before throwing water stars at Turtonator. Everybody was shocked to see how fast Greninja was. "What speed" said Lana.

"Greninja lets see what new moves you learned" said Ash. Greninja formed a Power up Punch and charged towards Turtonator. "Turtonator use Shell Trap!" said Kiawe. Turtonator had his back to Greninja as Greninja punched his spikes making an explosion. Greninja was a bit hurt but he was getting warmed up. "Ninja!' said Greninja eyeing him. Ash nodded before he and greninja raised their arms as one. Everyone wondered what they were doing until a Veil of Water surrounded greninja. Only Pikachu knew what was going on. Tapu Koko watched from the trees. The transformation complete as Greninja become Ash-Greninja. Greninja looked alot like ash and on his back was a water Shuriken. "What? Greninja changed Form" said Sophocles.

"It's like Greninja become Ash" said Hau. the rest of the gang were too shocked to move. Even Kukui and Samson didn't say a word.

"Meet Ash-Greninja" said Ash. Greninja was ready for another move. "Greninja use Water Shuriken!" said Ash moving in sync with him. Greninja tossed the water shuriken off his back at Turtonator. Turtonator was sent back a bit from the attack. "Such strength" said Kiawe "Turtonator use Dragon Tail!"

Turtonator's tail glowed and he was ready to hit Greninja. "Dodge it and use Cut!" said Ash. Greninja dodged the dragon tail and he hits Turtonator with Night Slash instead of cut.. Turtonator was panting and Kukui said. "And that's it. This battle is over."

Greninja reverted back to his normal form."You gotten stronger Greninja" said Ash happy knowing that Greninja learned a few new moves during his travel with Squishy and Z2. "What happened to Greninja Ash?" Mallow asked.

Ash then explained to them all about the Bond Phenomenon. A special ability that allows a pokemon and its trainer to sync up much like Mega Evolution.. "When we sync up. I can feel what greninja is thinking. Even his pain"said Ash. all of the pokemon were enjoying the pokemon food Mallow provided. Starcloud was eating a mix of star candy and Pokemon food. "Now everyone, i hope you are all ready for our planned field trip. Our Pokemon World Tour" said Kukui. Since he was planning on making an Alola League. He wanted his class to see how the other leagues do it. "Our plane leaves tomorrow for the Kanto region."

"I wonder if Misty and Brock will be there to greet us?" wondered Lana. Kukui dismissed them all as the bell rang and everyone went home. Ash and his pokemon all went back to Kukui's house with Lillie. All of them were watching the sunset at the beach. Ash was in deep thought. Starcloud was laying beside him watching Pikachu play with Snowy, Rowlet, and Jangmo-o. Litten, Lycanroc and Greninja stayed near their trainer. Lillie wondered what her boyfriend was thinking. "Ash is everything okay?" She asked.

"Yeah, i'm just thinking about a few things" said Ash.

"Like what?" asked Lillie leaning next to him.

"About the pokemon league. I almost could have won the Kalos League if i used all my pokemon instead of just my Kalos i am going to win the Alola League then i need to use all my pokemon. Even the ones i have released or befriended." said Ash looking out to the sea.

"Maybe you might be able to find them after all we are going on a long field trip tomorrow." said Lillie.

"Yeah and it's time i made up for the promises i made to my other pokemon." said Ash. Lillie's limo pulled up and she and snowy got in the limo. They drove away and Ash looked at all his pokemon. "We are going to win this league. I will succeed in becoming a pokemon master" thought Ash.

"Hey Ash its time for dinner" said Kukui. Ash and all of his pokemon went inside exept for Starcloud. He was too big for the house until Ash recalled him into his Pokeball. Ash caught him after he came back. Ash and his pokemon ate dinner with Kukui and Burnet. He turned in for the night ready to bring back his promises once and for all.
