Pokémon: A Revolution Begins!

Hey chap and chapettes of the internet and welcome back to another chapter of Pokémon: A Revolution Begins! Anyway thanks again for reading these, I'm actually quite surprised at how many people read these Fics. And thanks to everyone leaving a review I do read them and although there aren't many, it's nice to read what you guys think.

Anyway on with the Fic and remember to visit Russia before Russia visits you!

Pallet Town:

Ash stood out of his stool and pulled Dawns ribbon out of his blue jeans staring at it. His mind clouded with a nostalgic blur. With his cap in one hand and Dawns ribbon in the other, he declared "The next time I see you, I'll tell you the truth Dawn. I will tell you how I feel" with the enthusiasm his younger self would have shared.

Ash walked out of the kitchen, into the living room. Deciding that he should pack his bags for tomorrow he walked to stairs with a new found spring in his step and ran up the stairs at speeds that rivalled his own Pikachu. He quickly opened his door and immediately spotted a pile of neatly folded cloths on his bed with a red and white baseball cap atop them. Eager to see his new outfit he rushed to his bed and picked up his new cloths. His new outfit consisted of black combat pants, a blue and white zipper top with a light blue undershirt and of course his new red and white cap with a blue Pokéball on the front (if my description isn't very good then search for Ash's Unova clothing).

His mother stood at the doorway trying (and failing) to stifle a laugh as she watched Ash 'test' his new cap. He immediately twisted his body around to face her. "What's so funny?" He asked confusion plastered on his face as the setting sun peered through the window of the pallet town native's room, giving the room a strange orange tint.

"Nothing, nothing whatsoever don't you worry your little head" She said grinning like an idiot as she patted the boys very confused head.

"Thanks mom, you know I could have just wore these cloths right?" Ash said pointing at his current Sinnoh attire as he took a seat on his bed.

"You're welcome and no you couldn't have just worn those, you've had them for two years and it does show" she responded taking a seat next to her son on his bed pointing at the many rips his outfit had endured throughout his journey in Sinnoh.

Ash couldn't help but grin at his mother's attitude towards him. They sat there for a while talking about how his cloths gained their 'war wounds' before the conversation quickly changed to the rest of his adventure, of course he edited all of the times he was reckless or did something dangerous (essentially the entire story) in an attempt to avoid scolding from his mother but inevitably the conversation drifted onto his newest travelling companion. His words on her were not dealt with the same sadness that had accompanied them earlier in the day. He tried to keep it brief but with Dawn he couldn't be brief she was his drug and right now he was riding a nostalgic high as he described her to his mother.

His expression of sadness and depression that was in the kitchen was gone, seeing this Delia smiled inwardly; glad that her son was back to his usual self. As he went on about Dawn his words expressions became more and more dreamy, something that Delia took note of. As he concluded his speech about Dawn, Delia decided that she would have a little fun at her son's expense "Well it's a shame she couldn't come with you…" Ash responded with a 'yeah' as he continued staring at the ceiling, still in his dream like trance "-I would of loved to meet my future Daughter in Law". Ash yet again responded with a 'yeah'. "You two getting married?" Delia chuckled out. "Yea-W-WAIT WHAT?" Ash stuttered, finally coming out of his trance. Seeing her son become redder than a Heatran on a bad day in less than a second was hilarious to Delia so she decided to continue humiliating her son. "Oh you were just telling me about how you and Dawn are getting married, have you arranged a date?", Ash's face burned in embarrassment, he opened his mouth to speak but decided against it trying not to dig himself into a bigger hole of humiliation. He stood up and pulled his hat down to try and cover his blush.

Feeling he had suffered enough Delia, grabbed him by the shoulders and took his hat off. "Nothing to be embarrassed about Ash it was bound to happen eventually, you falling in love". He then looked to the ground and mumbled "I don't like her like that". She smiled widely at this sarcastically saying "of course not" before walking over to the door.

"What time do we leave tomorrow?" Ash said quietly still not trusting his voice.

"Well the plane leaves about 9.00 pm so I don't have to wake you up early in the morning although I would suggest you go and see your Pokémon again, they're worried after they saw the state you were in earlier" she responded. Ash couldn't help but feel guilty at that. "Yeah I'll go to the lab before we leave tomorrow" he replied, his voice now taking a more serious tone.

"Okay good, good. Have a nice sleep lover boy" She chuckled quickly walking away from the door before Ash could respond. Ash stood in the centre of his room with his mouth open wide and his face gently heating up. Pikachu, who had been sitting in the corner of the room the entire time attempting to stifle his laughter, erupted in a fit of laughter. Adding to his trainer's misfortune.

"Me and my big mouth" Ash sighed. Pikachu crawled over to its friend trying (and failing) to stop laughing.

"Oh you can hardly talk you're just as bad as me Mr. I'm in love with Buneary" Ash grinned as he saw Pikachu's expression quickly fall. Ash then climbed changed into his PJ's and went into his bed while Pikachu hopped onto the Snorlax beanbag than was at the foot of his bed.

Pallet Town-The Next Day:

Ash was sprawled out like a Staryu on his bed as his dreams drifted once again to Dawn.

' The dream was in Alamos town, He and Dawn were traveling up the Tower in a balloon when suddenly Dialga and Palkia fly by, disturbing the hot air balloon and making Dawn fall out. Dawn grabbed her hand but. She slipped from his grasp. Instinctively Ash jumped after Dawn, grabbing her in mid-air. The feeling of free-fall gripped him. He and Dawn clung to each other as they screamed in terror'

Ash sat up sharply clinging to his pillow, as he looked around frantically attempting to recognise his surroundings. The feeling of falling still engrained in his mind he shuck his head in an attempt to clear his mind from the dream. He'd been having the same dream quick a lot, ever since the events in Alamos town, so he was used to it by now. He gulped down his feeling on the matter and got out of bed to get changed into his new outfit. After an inspection his outfit in the mirror and the smell of pancakes drifting into his room he rushed to get down the stairs.

However in his rush to get down the stairs he tripped over something and 'bounced' down the final few stairs, resulting in a loud groan and hysterical laughter from his Pikachu who had been the 'something' he tripped on. "You're a real jackass Pikachu…" Ash groaned as he picked himself up from the floor of the living room.

"Ash breakfast is done" He heard his mother call. "Okay" He shouted back.

"Oh and Ash…" Delia shouted trailing off slightly at the end waiting for a response. "What?" Her son replied. "Quit running up and down the stairs, it's why you trip on them so much" she shouted in a matter of fact kind of voice.

At that Ash immediately looked up at his Pikachu, pulling out its Pokéball, much to its horror. "Oh you keep testing me and one of these days Pikachu, one of these days…" He said quietly as he gave a death glare to his partner.

After a short standoff Pikachu hopped onto Ash's shoulder and started nuzzling his head affectionately. "Yeah that's what I thought" Ash chuckled as he scratched the top of Pikachu's head, earning himself a small 'Pika' of approval.

Ash walked into the Kitchen taking a seat at the table in the centre of the room, placing Pikachu on the table. Delia walked over to the duo with a huge pile of pancakes that looked like they could leave a Snorlax fully satisfied for Ash and a small bowl filled with Ketchup.

Ash munched his way through the pancake at break neck speeds, finishing the mountain in less than a minute. A feet that would be strange for anyone, except Ash. Delia merely rolled her eyes at her son. "I take it, you liked the pancakes then?" she asked already knowing Ash's answer. "Nope I love 'em your cooking-" Ash started before being interrupted by his mother "-never ceases to amaze you I know".

Ash patted his belly in pure satisfaction from his breakfast. His eyes slowly wondered to Pikachu who was lapping the ketchup out of the bowl like a Poochyena drinking water. "I was trying to get him off that stuff you know" Ash sighed.

"I could take it off him if you'd like" Delia replied. Pikachu hearing this threat upon his favourite 'food' immediately clung to his bowl like a mother holding her child. Pikachu then unleashed his secret weapon…puppy dog eyes. However his ploy was not very effective as Ash and Delia retaliated with facepalm. Ash chuckled into his hand "I'd love to see you try, but if you want to keep your hair as it is I'd suggest you leave him be". Knowing her son was speaking from a lot of experience she followed his advice and left Pikachu to eat (or rather slurp) its food.

Ash grabbed his plate and walked over to the sink washing it. He dried it before turning to face his mother who was shaking her head at Pikachu who was slurping down his Ketchup as though his life depended on it. "I'm going to the lab soon, okay? I wanna see my Pokémon before I head off to Unova" He said. Delia took her eyes of Pikachu and stared at her son replying "Yeah it's fine, go ahead just be careful, alright?"

"I'll be fine, No Need to Worry, right?" Ash said quickly walking out of the house, into his front garden. The sun was high in the sky above Pallet at this point and Ash couldn't help but feel at home right now. He smiled as he walked past Mr. Mime who was attending some flower beds. He walked up to his small, white picket fence and hopped over it. Something he always tried when he was younger. Resulting most times with a bruise and a bloody nose. Ash put his hands in his pockets and closed his eyes as he stood in the middle of the sandy path enjoying the feel of the light wind against his skin he began walking to the professor's lab, remembering the first day of his Pokémon journey. "Man, I can't believe I turned up in my PJ's" He chuckled to himself.

After Pikachu licked his bowl clean he bolted out the door after Ash eager to see the rest of his friends. Pikachu caught up with Ash in no time and quickly took his spot on top of the trainers head.

Ash and Pikachu approached the professors' ranch gate and quickly climbed over it. In the distance over the vast grassy field, Ash could see Tracey feeding his Pokémon at the edge of the treeline, well at least most of them his 20 Tauros, were in their pen doing laps, or whatever his Tauros do in their spare time. Ash quickly walked over to his friends putting his hand on Tracey's shoulder as he crouched next to him. "Hey Ash, how you doing?" Tracey asked, clearly concerned.

"Oh I'm better I just wasn't having a good day yesterday that's all. How've you been" Ash asked. The two of them stood up. "Well I've been busy as you can see. Plus I've gotta help the professor with his research so I've always got lots of work to do, not that I mind it, I love it here it's quite peaceful don't you think?" Tracey asked looking at the sky. Ash nodded sighing a 'yeah' in utter content.

"Well I know why you're here, I'll leave you to it" Tracey said happily as he turned heel leaving Ash with his Pokémon whom had their backs turn and were completely oblivious to his location.

"Hey guys, you miss me?" Ash questioned loudly drawing the attention of his Pokémon. Naturally Bayleef was the first to tackle him to the ground in a show of affection, before the rest piled on top of him to show him their 'love'. His Pokéballs opened as a result of the pile-up causing Staraptor, Gliscor, Gible, Buizle and Infernape to materialise in a bright white light outside the carnage that was Ash's greeting. They all sweat dropped at the encounter but they could understand their enthusiasm, it was Ash after all.

After a good five minutes they let Ash out of their mosh pit and returned under the shade of the treeline from the baking sun. Ash no longer being body slammed by his Pokémon was able to get a better look at them. At the back resting against a tall Oak tree was Snorlax. "Thank Arceus he was asleep" He cringed imagining the situation that would have occurred if Snorlax had decided to join the other Pokémon in 'greeting' Ash. In the shade Sceptile and Torterra chuckled as they watched Bulbasaur try to pry Heracross of its sap-rich bulb. He gazed to his left he saw his Torkoal and Quilava sparing together, he sat down on the grass near them eager to see what they'd learnt since he went to Sinnoh, they were both being a bit rough (for sparring) trying to impress Ash. After they had finished he grinned in pride and congratulated the two of them. Looking down the hill he saw his Corpfish and Donaphan spraying water in the air making a little puddle for Totadile to do his little dance, Ash couldn't help but chuckle at that 'somethings never change I guess' he thought remembering the countless battles with Totadile bouncing on its feet doing its 'dance' to stay agile.

After a few more minutes watching over his Pokémon Ash walked down towards the laboratory and opened the door.

The professor quickly pulled Ash into a shoulder hug startling the Raven haired teen, "Ash my dear boy, you ready for the big trip?" he said much louder than needed. "Eh yeah I'm ready, but what are you wearing?" Ash responded, pointing to the professors attire, which currently consisted of green shorts a red Hawaiian shirt, some sandals and a pair of sunglasses. The whole outfit just looked…wrong, very, very wrong on the man.

The professor pulled away "It's cool isn't it" he responded pulling down his sunglasses from atop his head, causing Ash to sweat drop. "Yeah sure, whatever you say…" he trailed off nervously. Tracy walked then walked in the door munching an apple "Don't worry about him, he gets like this every time he leaves the region" he said between bites. Ash nodded in understanding, smiling to himself. He treated Professor Oak like his father but even he had to notice how…odd he was.

"I take it you want to leave your Sinnoh team behind then" The professor stated bluntly looking at Ash. "I swear your bipolar" Ash responded earning a scoff from Tracy and Oak, "and yeah I would like to".

Tracy turned away from his computer desk and looked at Ash, "I'm curious, why do you leave them here. Wouldn't it make them stronger if you took them with you on your journey?". "I suppose it would but when I go to a new region I want to catch new Pokémon and make new friends plus if I use all my older Pokémon the gym challenge wouldn't be much of a 'challenge' so I'd become complacent and worse as a result. I could have the world's strongest Pokémon but it's no use if I'm a lousy trainer" Ash replied adding air quotation marks to 'challenge' as he said it. Tracy nodded in agreement it did seem like a logical perspective. He couldn't help but notice Ash's change from the last time he had seen him. He seemed much more, wise? Maybe. At least he was more mature which wasn't such a bad thing maybe he could get over his tungstenesk density one day after all. Tracy had to stop himself from laughing out loud at the last part.

The three of them stayed in the laboratory for hours talking about what had been going on over the past two years. Occasionally one of them walk to the Pokémart to get some snacks while they talked. It was quite the eye opener for Ash really. He didn't know much about what Pokémon researchers di d, he always just assumed they only took care of his Pokemon but their work on the genetic connection between Pokemon baffled Ash completely and he couldn't help but find himself having more respect for the pair as a result.

Looking at his watch the professor realised it was nearing 8 o'clock go so he got out off of his stool and looked at Tracy "Are you sure you're going to be okay?". Tracy sighed "You ask me this every time and my answer never changes, I'll be fine now go and have fun…" he then looked at Ash "Oh and Ash I finished that thing you wanted" he handed Ash a large black book. The professor and Ash then walked to the professor's old silver pickup truck and drove towards the docks. Ash couldn't help but be confused that they were going to a harbour to catch a plane it's not as though planes could land on water.

The two pulled up across the road from the harbour. The place was pretty quiet at this time. Ash looked over his shoulder and saw his Staraptor, Swellow, Gliscor and Noctowl on the edge of a roof. 'They followed me here just to say goodbye' he thought to himself as he waved at them, the four nodded in return sad to see Ash go.

Oak and Ash picked up their backpacks out the back of the pickup and walked towards the docks. Leaning on its railing looking for Delia, "Hey where's Pikachu, Ash?" the professor asked nervously. "If I had to guess he went back home to satisfy his Ketchup addiction and hitched a ride with mom" Ash said nonchalantly. Spotting his mom he pointed her out to the professor. She stood on the docks with the moons reflection just starting to appear behind her. His eyes shifted to her right, at her feet he spotted a familiar yellow mouse hapilly gulping down more ketchup 'I called it' Ash thought happily to himself. Looking further right he spotted their transportation…a floating plane. He threw his arms in the air, sheer disbelief painted across his face "What's next, square wheels?" He exaggerated getting strange looks from both the professor and his mother.

Ash and the professor walked down the dock cautiously so they wouldn't fall in. Eventually they reached the end of the dock and boarded the seaplane. Ash sat next to the window as the aircraft took off. Pikachu curled into a ball on his lap as Ash watched the night time view of the Kanto coastline in Awe. Ash quickly drifted into sleep, however his usual dram of the dreadful events in Alamos were gone. Instead he and Dawn were in a city, a city he had never seen before…

Anyway hope you enjoyed the chapter, I did say it would be longer and I hope to make them longer still but its 00:45 here in the UK while I'm writing this so I think I'll call it a night. Oh and Dawn will be in the next chapter, although they Ash and Dawn won't meet up just yet. It'll probably be in about a chapter, two at most. Please leave a brutal review, I want this story to get better and the only way to do that is for me to listen to your feedback. Or in other words scrutinise the shit out of this text. My apologies for any grammatical errors in the text I was tired when I wrote it and I'm tired now while I'm proof reading it so I'm very sorry. If you see any errors point them out to me and I'll update the story with a correction. I'm off to bed now before I pass out over my keyboard so Toodaloo my minions I'll see you guys in the next chapter!
