The sun rose over Pallet Town as the Pidgey chirped in the early morning. One boy was about to have the adventure of a lifetime. His name was Ash Ketchum and today he was going to become an official pokemon trainer. His dream is to become a Pokemon master with his partner Greninja. Ash found Greninja when he was a Froakie injured in the forest when he was seven years old. . Ash took Froakie to Professor Oak. Professor Oak told Ash about Froakie abandoning its trainers from the Kalos Region and so Professor Sycamore sent Froakie to him to find a trainer worthy of him.. Ash befriended Froakie and ever since the two have become friends. Froakie soon evolved into Frogadier and into Greninja by the time Ash turned Eight. Ash and Greninja have a bond that allows Greninja to become stronger. They tried to master the bond and succeeded when they saved a Family of Spewpa from a falling tree.

Ash was awoken by a six year old girl who was jumping on his stomach. She had black hair and she was wearing a Red dress. "Wake up big brother" said The girl. Her name was Amber Ketchum she was four years younger than Ash. .

"I'm awake Amber" said Ash.

Greninja woke up from his spot. 'Morning Ash"

"Morning Greninja, todays the day, We're finally going to be official partners" said Ash

Ash could understand pokemon ever since he and Greninja mastered their bond in which Professor Sycamore called it Bond Phenomenon. A rare evolution that happens every three hundred years. Ash also had the power to control Aura and so he received some training from a guy named Riley who became his mentor . the other Region Professors came to study the Bond Phenomenon. The only ones who know of his gift is his Mom, Amber, and the Professors. Ash yawned before he got up and hit the showers. He put on the clothes his mother made and putting on his cap. they went downstairs and saw Delia making breakfast. He packed his bag the previous night with A tent, pokemon food, His books, And sleep clothes. Delia turned to her children with a huge smile. 'Morning my handsome son, you look great in your clothes.'

"Morning Mom," said Ash hugging his mother. Ash ate the breakfast his mother made with his little sister. After breakfast and helping his mom clean up. Delia went into the kitchen and gave him a small pot along with some normal food. "Wow thanks mom" said Ash before he picked up the items and placed it inside his bag. He headed out the door. 'Bye mom"

"Goodbye honey have a safe journey" said Delia. The two was outside their house waving to the two. Ash and Greninja ran to the lab until they heard a scream. Ash and Greninja hurried and saw a Girl with blonde hair, Green eyes and was wearing a white skirt and White shirt. Right behind her was a large bat like pokemon. They was surrounded by several poachers. "Now were not going to tell you agian brat, Hand us over Lunala and you wont get hurt." said a grunt.

"No! Your not taking my Nebby," said the girl defensively in front of the Pokemon. Nebby let out a cry before letting out a Light blue beam at the grunts and their zubats. Nebby let out one final cry before it fell down too exhausted. "Nebby!" cried the girl rushing over to the downed pokemon. all of them was knocked out exept for one. He was about to issue an attack until Ash stepped in. 'Greninja Water Shurikan!"

Greninja formed A small water star before throwing it at the grunt and his Zubat. The two was knocked out unconciously. Ash and Greninja hurried over to the Girl and her Pokemon. 'Are you okay?" asked Ash

"I'm fine, Please save my Nebby" shouted the girl worried for her pokemon.

"Do you have a pokeball?" asked Ash. The girl shook her head no. Ash said 'Professor Oaks lab is not to far from here. Nebby opened her eyes and looked at the girl. "Can you make it to the Lab Nebby?' asked the girl. Nebby nodded before flapping its wings.

Ash, Greninja and the girl hurried to the Lab escorting Nebby. Ash saw Leaf and Ritchie was already there. "Hi Ash" said Leaf before she noticed Greninja and Nebby, 'Whoa what kind of pokemon are they. Nebby let out a soft cry before collapsing. the girl went to her pokemons head holding it. Ash banged on the door "Professor Oak, i got an injured pokemon out here and it needs help"

Right as he said that. Professor Oak answered the door and he saw the Pokemon. '"Holy Arceus Its Lunala!"

"Lunala! as in the Legendary Pokemon that Protects the Moon" Exclaimed Ash. The crowd gasped at looking at the unconscious Lunala.

"Please help her" cried the girl holding Lunala's head. Delia and Amber appeared though a small crowd. Professor oak went to help the Pokemon "Someone call me Nurse Joy and tell her to get here now!." shouted the professsor.

Delia came to help the Professor. He and Delia sprayed Lunala with Potion. By the time they finished spraying the Moone Pokemon. Nurse Joy and her Chansey arrived "Oh Dear i'ts very weak" said Joy.

Ash said 'hang on Lunala, well help you"

"Right!" said Greninja. Ash's Eyes glowed blue before he began transfer his Aura to it. In the shadows of a Tree. A small mouse Pokemon Called Pikachu was watching the whole thing. Ash and Greninja continued to transfer Aura to Lunala. Lunala Awoke and let out a cry before flapping her wings. Ash and Greninja fainted from using too much energy. Ash woke up to a worried Delia, Amber and Greninja. 'Are you okay Big Brother" asked Amber

"I'm fine" said Ash rubbing his head. Delia said "That was a very reckless thing you did young man, Using that much Aura to heal a pokemon, But i'm glad you did."

Ash got up with the help of Greninja. He saw that he was in a guest room at the lab. Ash and his family went into the Lab and saw the girl next to Lunala. When the girl saw him she hugged him in a tight grip. 'Thank you for saving Nebby" said the girl.

"Your welcome" said Ash with a blush. Greninja smirked as did the small mouse hiding.

"Thank you" said Nebby.

Ash said 'Your welcome Lunala"

The Bat gave him a look "You understand me?'

"yeah i can communicate with Pokemon" said Ash. "I have the gift of Aura and I'm training to become an Aura Guardian." The girl said "That is so amazing, I wish i can Talk to Nebby"

"What is your name? Mines Ash Ketchum' asked Ash

"Lillie, Its a pleasure of meeting you Ash" said Lillie. Amber instantly took a liking to her as did Delia. Professor Oak looked at Ash. "Im sorry my boy, but im out of Starter Pokemon."

"Its okay professor, I got Greninja" said Ash looking at the Frog Pokemon. Pikachu came out of his hiding spot. Ash saw the electric mouse and slowly approached him 'Be careful Ash, That Pikachu doesn't like humans. I found it chewing on wires. "

Ash nodded at the professor before kneeling to the pokemons level. 'Hi there Pikachu, My names Ash and I want to become a Pokemon Master, is it alright if i touch you"

The Pikachu was shocked at this human, Asking to touch him with permission. Pikachu nodded as Ash petted the small mouse pokemon. Pikachu thought. 'This boy is different than the rest of his kind. Pikachu let out a "Cha" meaning he liked it. Ash asked "Do you want to be my Starter Pikachu?'

"Yes,i would like that?, What you understand me?' said Pikachu.

Ash said "yes, I can use Aura to communicate with Pokemon"

"That's Awesome!" Exclaimed the mouse. Ash looked at the professor. "Professor, I choose Pikachu"

Professor Oak gave Ash a pokeball with an electric symbol on it. "No, Not the dark Place," said Pikachu shaking a bit at the sight of the pokeball.

"You dont want to go in your pokeball? Thats fine with me" said Ash. "Greninja stays outside as well"

"Ash, this could be the start of a great Freindship" said Pikachu climbing on his shoulder. Professor Oak then had a tray which had Sixteen Pokeballs including Greninjas and a Pokedex.. "My fellow Colleagues and i Agreed to allow you to carry up to Twelve pokemon as long as you use Six in a Battle."

"Really, Thanks so much Professor!" said Ash picking up the items and placing them inside his coat. Professor oak turned his attention to Lillie. "Kukui told me that you would be arriving in the Kanto Region to begin your own journey. I'm sorry for all that you've been though" he said

"it's okay professor," said Lillie. "Nebby was there for me when we left Alola."

"Kukui sent me a pokemon that would benefit for your Starter" said Professor Oak before he sent it out. The pokemon was a Vulpix except it had white fur instead of red fur. "It's a Vulpix!" said Ash

"It's so Cute" said Amber

"I've never seen a white Vulpix before?" said Delia

"In Alola, Some pokemon there have different Forms. Alolan Vulpix are Ice Types." said Professor Oak,

Lillie knelt down to the small fox. "Hi Vulpix, My name is Lillie and we're Going to be partners, do you want to become my Partner Snowy?"

"Sure Lillie, I would Like that" said Snowy before she jumped into Lillies arms. Professor Oak handed her Snowys pokeball and six others. "Kukui also sent me this Pokedex" said Oak revealing a Strange pokedex A Rotom appeared and went inside the Pokedex. The Pokedex activated as it Became a Rotomdex. "Whoa thats so Cool!" said Ash and his pokemon. "Registration Complete, User Lillie zzzt" said Rotom.

"Wow it talks" said Amber

"Thank you Professor" said Lillie.

Nebby let out a Cry before she gestured to one of her pokeballs. "Nebby, You want to fully become my pokemon?" said Lillie. Nebby let out a soft cry as Lillie tossed a pokeball at her capturing her. The small Group exited the lab as ash said 'Lillie why don't you join me, it would be better if we traveled together"

"Sure Ash, I would like that" said Lillie. Amber was about on the verge of tears. Ash knelt down and hugged her. "It's Alright Amber" said Ash soothing his sister.

"It's Just not fair, Why can't i come with you?" said Amber with tears in her eyes. Ash couldn't stand to see his little sister upset. Lillie watch the scene and it reminded her of when she and Gladion was young.

"I Know, but someone has to keep mom company while i'm on my journey' said Ash. Amber looked sad as she looked down. Delia said "If you want to go with your big brother Amber then it's okay"

"Really Mommy!" said the girl excited.

"But mom?" said Ash "Wont you be lonely"

"no i will have Professor Oak to keep me company" said Delia before giving her son a breathtaking hug. "I'm so proud of you my son."

"Mom c-can't breathe" said Ash. She let him go before looking at Greninja and Pikachu. 'Greninja, Pikachu take good care of Ash and Amber for me"

"You got it" said the two Pokemon.

"Come Amber, lets go pack you a bag" said Delia. Ash and Lillie followed them back to the house and waited outside. Five minutes later Amber came back out with a bag and her Teddiursa. "Rotom can you scan that pokemon?" asked Lillie

"Sure thing Lillie Zzzt" said Rotom. "Teddiursa, the Little Bear Pokémon. This cute, cuddly Pokémon is easily frightened and frequently licks its paws, which are usually covered with sweet honey."

'its so cute" said Lillie,

"I found Teddiursa hurt one day and i took care of her, She decided to stay with me" said Amber hugging the bear

"hi there" said Teddiursa.

"Off you go then" said Delia with a hankercheif. The three and their pokemon started down the path. "Be safe, Ash take care of your sister" said Delia.

"By mom/mommy!" said the Siblings waving bye to their mother. "Well call you when we reach Veridian City" said Ash. They ran out of Delias sight before she said 'Go and live you dream Ash"

Ash and his companions stopped running and took in the scenery. Thats when they saw a Bulbasaur and a Pidgeotto fighting each other. The Bullbasaur was guarding some Pecha berries and the Pidgeotto just wanted some. "Big brother do something" said Amber watching the fight. Ash pulled out a blue Ocarina and began to play a little melody (Oracion). The fighting stopped as the soothing melody played. Pikachu remembered the time he had with his family before Poachers came and took them away which lead to hate towards humans until he met Ash. Bulbasaur handed Pidgeotto a berry and the two ate one. Ash stopped playing the instrument. "What a beautiful song" said Lillie.

"Mommy calls it Oracion" said Amber, "Big brother learned to play it when we went to Alamos town to visit the Space/Time Towers for my Sixth birthday"

Bulbasaur and Pidgeotto said 'Can you play it again?"

"Sure" said Ash. The pokemon did a small jump 'You understand us?" asked Bulbasaur. He said "I have the ability to use Aura. I can understand pokemon" he played Oracion again with his Ocarina. The music calmed down any pokemon that was near. Ash finished playing the song and put away his Ocarina when Pidgeotto got his attention. "Can i join you?" asked the bird

"Yes you can join me Pidgeotto" said Ash pulling out a pokeball and captured the bird. Lillie said "Bulbasaur, Would you like to be my Pokemon?'

Bulbasaur Looked at the girl and saw she was a gentle soul. She nodded as Lillie captured the grass type. Ash then sent out Pidgeotto. "Alright let me scan you Pidgeotto." He said. Ash pulled out his pokedex. "Pidgeotto, an evolved form of the Pidgey. It is armed with sharp claws and dives from the sky to capture its prey. Unlike the more gentle Pidgey, Pidgeotto can be dangerous. Approach with extreme caution, Gender Female, A Normal and Flying Type, Ability Keen Eyes, Hidden Ability Big Pecks, Moves Whirlwind, Twister, Roost, Quick attack, Ariel Ace, Steel wing, Gust, and The Egg moves Air Cutter and Brave Bird"

"Wow Pidgeotto, those are some great moves." said Ash. Pidgeotto looked proud at herself. "Alright Pikachu your next"

Ash scanned Pikachu next with his pokedex. (Pikachu, The Mouse Pokemon, It generates electricity from its pouches located on each check, Gender Male, Ability Lightning Rod, moves, Focus blast, Thunderbolt, Thundershock, Leer, Quick attack, electro Ball, Discharge and the Egg move Volt Tackle. Note the egg move is locked."

Pikachu scratch the back of his head. Ash looked at the small mouse and whistle. 'Those are some great moves Pikachu, But we need to focus on your Speed and Agility. The same with you Pidgeotto"

"Yeah!" said the Pokemon. For the next four hours, Ash and Lillie trained their pokemon. Ash invited Lillie to work out with him which she accepted. She didnt want to feel useless just in case she was surrounded by bad guys. They did push-ups, Sit-ups, and Practice fighting each other. Snowy was a Female and she knew the moves Powder Snow, Ice shard, Baby doll eyes and Moonblast, A Fairy type move. Her Bulbasaur which she nicknamed Flower was also a girl. she knew the moves Vine whip, Tackle and Growl. her egg move was Leaf Storm. Ash had Pickachu learn to use Iron tail. Ash wanted Pidgeottoto focus on her speed. They trained until the four hours was up. Before they decided to head out. they decided to fish for a Water Type. Ash pulled out a Fishing rod and casted the lure into a small river. Amber and Lillie sat beside him as he fished. 'Hmmm nothing biting" said Ash holding the fishing pole. Just as he was about to pull the lure out. The line started to pull which meant he had caught something. He pulled and a Gold Fish pokemon. "oh its a Magikarp" said Lillie 'i read about it but i never seen a gold one before?"

Ash pulled out his pokedex to analyze the Water Type. (Magikarp, the Fish Pokémon. Magikarp can live in the dirtiest of water. It jumps very well and can evolve into Gyaradoes. this pokemon is a Shiny Pokemon)

"Wow Who would have thought i would catch a Shiny Magikarp" said Ash before he tossed a Pokeball at the fish capturing it."Lillie you want to go next?' asked Ash. She nodded and casted the lure out into the River. A few seconds late, The line pulled and she pulled the rod out revealing a Purple Fish. "What pokemon is that?' asked Amber looking at the fish. "Feebas, the Fish Pokémon. Although extremely ragged, it is a tough Pokémon that can live in almost any kind of water. Its evolved form is Milotic." said Rotom

"This Feebas is a Shiny pokemon too" said Ash. he wasnt the only one getting a Shiny pokemon today. Lillie tossed a pokeball at the Feebas capturing it. Ash allowed Amber to try to catch a Water Type. She manage to pull out a Orange Shellfish pokemon called Shellder. She caught the water type with one of Ashs pokeballs. The three set off on therir way to Veridian City. A Cry was heard as the Three hurried and saw a Scyther getting tormented by a Flock of Spearows. "Greninja Water Shurikan, Pikachu Thundershock!" said Ash.

"Snowy use Powder Snow!" said Lillie. Greninja fired his water star at the Spearow just as Snowy sent a small blizzard at them. Pikachu sent a small bolt of electricity at the brown birds. The Birds took off very quickly as Ash checked on Scyther. "Are you Alright Scyther."

"Very Weak," said the poor bug type looking at his savior. Ash then pulled out a couple potions and healed the Scyther. He wrapped the pokemons injuries in some bandages. Rotom said "The nearest Pokemon Center is in Viridian City"

Ash pulled out a pokeball and looked at the bug type. "Scyther is it alright if i put you in here. Well take you to the Pokemon Center and ill release you "

The bug nodded as He tapped the pokemon with a pokeball capturing it. Ash said "Lets go!" Amber and Lillie nodded but was surrounded by Spearows. "Uh-oh, Spearows can be very troublesome, Do we fight or flee" said Ash looking at Greninja and Pikachu. "We fight" said Greninja. Pikachus cheeks sparked ready for a fight. Ash was shocked at the loyalty of his pokemon. Thats when the Spearow used Gust which sent the three over the small cliff close to the river. Nebby popped out of her pokeball and used Pyschic to move them to safety. Nebby moved them close to a Orange haired Girl who was fishing nearby. Nebby locked eyes with the Spearow before flapping her Wings. A Strange Symbol appeared on her head before she fired her signature move Moongiest Beam at the Spearow and the Fearow leader. The flock fllew away from Nebby. Nebby let out a screech to the sky. Nebby flew back to check on her trainer. "Nebby, You saved us, Thank you" said Lillie as she hugged the pokemons head.

"Are you all okay?" asked the orange haired girl. She had a ponytail on one side. She was wearing a yellow shirt with blue shorts and red sneakers. Pikachu thought she was going to attack them and accidently use thunderbolt at her. She dodged the attack which electrocuted the bike that was nearby. "MY BIKE!" screamed the girl looking at the charred Bike. 'Oh im so sorry about that" said Ash."My Pikachu thought you were going to attack us?"

"WHY Would i attack you if i don't even know you!" shouted the girl.

"Big Brother we got to get Scyther to the Pokemon Center." said Amber. Ash said "Lillie can Nebby take us to Viridian City?"

"Sure no problem Ash, Even the Red head?" asked Nebby looking at the angry girl. Ash said "Listen miss, I am sorry about that,We have an injured Pokemon and we have to get it to the Pokemon Center. Your more than welcome to come with us and we can find a way to fix your Bike."

The girl calmed down a bit as she looked at the boy. She said "Alright, Since theres a Pokemons life in danger ill let it slide"

Nebby let out a cry before using Psychic to lift them onto her back before taking off towards Viridian City. On their way to Virirdian City, The four saw a Bird pokemon flying towards a Rainbow. Ash and Rotom took a picture of the bird when the Pokedex read No Data on the Pokemon. They made it to Viridian City thanks to Nebby, Lillie recalled her as the four hurried to find the Pokemon Center. Thats when a Voice came on a Intercom.

Attention all Citizens!, The criminal organization known as Team Rocket has been sighted. Peopleae advised to keep thier Pokemon inside their Pokeballs and report any suspicious characters.

Ash and their group was halted by Officer Jenny. She asked for some I.D. which He gave her his Pokedex. She warned them that Team Rocket was in the area causing trouble. The group hurried to the Pokemon Center. Ash hurried to the Desk and said 'Nurse Joy we need your help"

"Yes is there a problem?" asked Nurse joy. Ash pulled out Scythers Pokeball and he said "This Scyther was brutally attack by Spearows. can you heal him along with check on our Pokemon"

"Of Course its what i do" said The nurse as she took their pokeballs, Pikachu and Greninja to heal them. Ash sighed as did Lillie and Amber. "While we wait lets call mom and professor Oak and let them know we made it"

Ash and Amber went to the Video Phone as he dialed his house picked up as she answered "Hello?"

"Hey mom its us calling, We made it to Viridian City" said Ash

"Already?, Your Father didnt even make it to Viridian City Until Three and a Half Days later. He never was good with Directions." stated Delia

"I dont consider that man my Father since he Abandoned us" said Ash a little angry.

"Oh sweety" said Delia

"It's okay i got you, Amber, The professors and Riley who i consider to be my Father" said Ash.

"Hi Mommy" said Amber "I caught a Shellder today"

"Thats great Amber" said Delia

"We have to call Professor oak Mom" said Ash.

'Okay have fun and stay safe" said Delia. She hung up the phone. Ash dialed up Professor Oak next as the old man picked up the phone. "Ash how are you and Lillie doing on your journey?" he asked.

Ash explained to him about the start of their jouney with the run in with the Spearow. 'Those Spearow are known to attack any who cross into their territory. Also my boy, i made a bet with Gary that you would only catch Two pokemon on your journey"

Ash sweatdroped as he said "You really shoudn't bet on that Professor, I caught more than two Pokemon"

"Yes! I knew i can count on you my boy. My grandson owes me fifty pokedollars." said the professor.

Ash also said 'Professor,We saw a Pokemon that wasnt registered into the Pokedex but i got a picture of it."

"Show me the picture and i will tell you what it is." said Oak. Ash showed him the picture and he was sure that he as about to have a heart attack. "Ash my boy do you know who that is? Its none other than Ho-oh the legendary Pokemon."

"Ho-oh, I thought it dissapeared" said Ash not believeing that he saw the phoenix. "Ho-oh decided to stay away from Humans for a while and hasn't been seen until Today" explained the professor.

Ash let out a small yawn just as his sister did. "I can see you very tired my boy, Go get some Rest" said the Professor.

"Bye professor ill call you agian soon" said Ash as he hanged up the phone. Lillie finished her call to professor Kukui thanking her for Vulpix. The four recollected their pokemon from Nurse Joy when they heard a ding. "Hows Scyther Doing?" asked Ash.

"Scyther will make a full recovery" said Nurse Joy. 'He will need to rest tonight in the center.

"Okay" said Ash before they knew it. There was an Explosion as a Man and woman came though the hole. Next to them was a meowth.

"Whats going on" said Ash

"Not to worry Little boy" said the women

"Who the heck are you crooks" said the girl

(Motto)

"Prepare for Trouble"

"Make it Double"

"To protect the world from devestation"

"To unite all people within our nation"

"To denouce the evils of truth and love"

"To extend our reach to the stars above"

"Jessie"

"James"

"Team Rocket blasting off to the speed of light"

"Surrender now or prepare to fight"

"Meowth! dat's right"

(End Motto)

Ash and his friends could only look at the crooks. 'Great a bunch of morons" said the girl next to Ash.

"Hey, That's rude you know" said James

"Whatever just hand us over the pokemon and well go" said Jessie.

Nurse Joy looked crossed at the crooks. "These Pokemon need rest and are being Treated" she said

'What about the Twerps pokemon" said Jessie pointing at Greninja, Pikachu and Vulpix.

"I've never seen a white Vulpix before, or that Frog" said James.

"Dat's right it must be Very rare" said Meowth. "Lets nab them!"

"Not if we don't Stop you" said Amber

Jessie sent out an Ekans as James sent out a Koffing. "Greninja Water shurikan!" said Ash

"Snowy Moonblast!" said Lillie. Greninja fired his Water shurikan at Ekans just as Snowy fired a Pink orb at Koffing. The two pokemon crashed into their trainers. 'Pikachu Thunderbolt!" said Ash. Pikachu electrocuted the crooks and sent them blasting off.

"Come on we didn't get to steal something for the boss!" whinned James

"We got beaten up instead" said Meowth

"Why does everyone hate us!" said Jessie

'Looks like were Blasting off again!" said the three as they was gone. Ash was confronted by Nurse Joy "Thank you for saving the pokemon" said Nurse Joy.

"No problem, Do you have any spare rooms?" asked Ash.

"Yes i have two spare rooms you can use" said the nurse handing them the keys. The four went into the rooms. Ash tucked in his sister before crashing on his bed tired from todays events.
