Ash the Zoroark

Chapter 1

The Start of a New Adventure

Hello! It's me Scribe0magic, I have had this story floating around in my head for sometime and I've stalled a bit on the other stories I have going at the moment. Plus I have wanted to make this for sometime, ever since I found out about this variation of the main story. Anyways enjoy this new story I have made!

Also I do not own Pokemon, just the fanfictions I make

Chapter 1

"Ash! You need to get up sweetie! You don't want to miss getting your starter today do you?" called a female voice from outside the door

We then see a small red and black foxlike pokemon stretch and get out of the bed he's sleeping in and then change into a human ten year old, without cloths, and proceeds to get dressed and ready for the day "Man I can't wait to get my trainer's license" says Ash as he heads down the stairs to eat breakfast with his parents

Now you might be wondering how a pokemon can be a pokemon trainer, well the truth of the matter is some time ago a large number of trainers were discovered to actually be pokemon in hiding and even two of the members of the Pokemon League's officials were pokemon. It was then decided that some new laws would be put in place that allows certain pokemon (ones that can create illusions or other ways of hiding what they really are) could be pokemon trainers, if they follow certain protocols

Another thing you might be wondering is how a zoroark is in Kanto when they are from Unovia? Simply put, a large number of rare pokemon had been gathered by poachers years ago, but the pokemon managed to break free and cause the airship they were in to crash into the forests next to Pallet Town. The men didn't survive, but most of the pokemon did and ever since the area has been quartered off and was added to the grounds of Prof. Oak's Lab so they could be kept safe. Some of the pokemon decided that they wanted to explore the region and left, others decided to hide in plain sight and live among people

Back to Ash and his parents

"Son, have you gotten the chip that will block pokeballs from capturing you yet?" asked a lucario that was sitting at the table critically "Yes dad, I got it taken care off yesterday" replied Ash as he got his plate and began eating "Good, now please try to keep your growing psychic abilities under control while you are out there" said Ash's father as he took a sip of his tea "I know dad, I still don't know how I can use more than what you and mom can do" replied Ash as he finished his meal

"Sweetie do you know what pokemon you re going to start with?" asked Delia Ketchem as she came into the room "Thor remember? We've been friends for years now, and he wouldn't like it if I left him behind" answered Ash "What about Rosie?" asked Ash's father "I was going to get her after I get my license" answered Ash with a slight blush "We should pay her parents a visit latter" said Delia "Dear, they're rather busy watching over the lab remember?" said Ash's father "Aren't you supposed to be helping them right now?" asked Delia "*Erk* I'll join them after Ash leaves for his journey" replied Ash's father rather quickly

"Well I have a few more things to pack, but I'll do that after I get Thor and Rosie" said Ash as he got up from the table "Don't worry about that dear, I'll take care of it and bring your bag to you at the lab" assured Delia "Thanks mom" thanked Ash as he gave her a hug and then ran out the door

Delia then dropped her illusion relieving a shiny zoroark standing in her place "Now, lets see about Ash's bag" Delia said as she headed up the stairs to pack Ash's bag

We see Ash jogging up to Prof. Oak's Lab waving to his neighbors who all knew the truth about Ash and his family, but didn't think anything of it and supported Ash in his decision to be a trainer. Ash had spent the last four years learning everything he could so he was ready for his journey, including things from cooking both human and pokemon food, to scuba diving, to learning all he could about all the legendary pokemon in the world, to medicine (exactly like in Ash's Journey Version I, minus the Latias incident) to learning the basics of controlling his psychic powers he developed for some reason a few months ago

"Well if it isn't the trickster Ash" said Gary as Ash came over to the other starting trainers "Gary, remember the last time you made me angry?" asked Ash as he crossed his arms "*Erk* Well in any case gramps said that there are only three starters this time so you're out of luck" said Gary to change the subject "Like I care, I already made arrangements with Prof. Oak for my starter pokemon" replied Ash "Really? Which one?" asked Leaf a childhood friend of Ash and Gary "Thor, I can't go anywhere with out him or he'll flip" answered Ash "You mean that pikachu that follows you around most of the time?" asked Leaf "Yep and I'm going to go pick up another friend after this too" answered Ash

"Ah, I see everyone is here" said Prof. Oak as he came to the door and then asked "Ash I must ask, where is your father? He hasn't come in yet" "At home, he wanted to see me before I left" answered Ash "He should be here soon though" "Good, he's one of the best outlooks we have" said Prof. Oak before ushering the four new trainers in

"So you all have made your choice of which pokemon you are going to start with?" asked Prof. Oak "Professor, we've been talking about what pokemon we wanted for weeks now" said Leaf "I know that, I just wanted to make sure you got the right one" said Prof. Oak as he handed Gary, Leaf and Blaze (Yes he's just like the first one) their pokemon and starting gear

"Now Ash here's Thor's pokeball, where that rascal is I have no idea" said Prof. Oak as he handed Ash a pokeball with a lighting bolt sticker on it "If I know him as well as I think I do, his showing off to the younger pokemon out back" said Ash "Well I wish you good luck on your journey, not many pokemon get this opportunity you know" said Prof. Oak as he handed Ash a specialized starter kit he put together himself, a international pokedex, a psychic guidebook, twice the number of pokeballs and some more advanced ones, a first aid kit, and four pairs of scrubs

"What are the scrubs for? I'm not a doctor" asked Ash "Truth is Ash you almost are one" explained Prof. Oak "You took four years of med school and have been helping me with such things around the lab, so if you help out at enough pokemon centers you will be granted a special medical license" "Oh cool! I wondered when I was going to get it" replied Ash happily, he knew his kind aren't the normal helpers at pokemon centers but every bit helps

"Ash I must ask, what is your goal?" asked Prof. Oak "Well first I want to show that I can be a top trainer, but I also am thinking of doing contests when I reach Hoenn" answered Ash 'There you are!' cried a pikachu as it came into the room 'I tried looking for you at your house, but your mom told me you already left' "Hey Thor, ready to hit the road?' asked Ash 'You bet I am' replied a pumped Thor "Don't get a big ego now, we haven't done anything yet" scolded Ash 'Sorry' apologized Thor

"Well I better start heading out" said Ash "Alright, call me when you get to Viridian City" said Prof. Oak as Ash headed out

When Ash came outside he found his parents waiting for him, in all their pokemon glory "Here sweetie I got everything taken care of" said Delia as she handed Ash his bag (it's more of a satchel) "Thanks mom, I'll call once I get to Viridian alright" replied Ash as he put his bag over his shoulders "Good luck honey" said Delia "Good luck son, I know you'll go far" encouraged Ash's father before he went inside the lab and got an ear full from Prof. Oak

"First things first, lets go get Rosie" said Ash as Thor jumped onto his shoulder "Thor, you know if I change you'll fall right?" 'Umm who's parents came from Alola?' replied Thor "Yours did, but still be careful" answered Ash

Soon Ash and Thor were heading to were Rosie and her family lived, in the restricted area "Ash I'm guessing you're here for Rosie?" asked the Officer Jenny that was at the only gate that allowed entry "Yep, once I go pick her up I'll be on my way" answered Ash "Very well go right in" said Jenny as she stepped aside

After a half hour Ash arrived at Rosie's home, a quaint little hovel under a large tree "Rosie! It's me Ash are you ready to go?" called Ash 'I'll be right out! I just have to say goodby to nana' called a voice back

Soon a riolu came out with a big smile on her face 'So you're a trainer now?" asked Rosie "Yep, and you know what that means" answered Ash as he pulled out a Luxury Love Ball 'I can stay out right?' asked Rosie "I'd only recall you in an emergency" 'Good, now lets get this over with so we can start our grand adventure' said Rosie as she tapped the button on the pokeball and was sucked in. The pokeball instantly dinged signaling an instant capture, Ash then let Rosie out who then gave him a big hug "Alright lets head out to Viridian City" said Ash 'Right!' cried Thor and Rosie
