I just had an epiphany when I was jogging in the morning. You know how everone has thought like a million times, "Why doesn't Ash just not blast Team Rocket away, and have them arrested?" (admit it, everyone has wondered.) I thought this and it suddenly hit me all they cause. Now this example is, what if Team Rocket got arrested after the Silver Conference. Now think. They would never have strapped that magnet to Pikachu at the beginning of Hoenn. And thus, Pikachu would not have suffered from overcharge. They would not have been in a hurry, and probably wouldn't have met May. They would have walked a day to reach Professor Birch, and missed May completely.

Also, I am just going to say Brock doesn't come. I like Brock, but I enjoy writing Ash alone stories. Ash has to get through Hoenn by himself. I will include all his pokemon, and more. I might even have him bring some of his other pokemon later on.

This is just for fun, but what if Ash actually hit puberty like a normal boy. He must be sixteen now, and he isn't any taller. So during Hoenn, he must be thirteen or fourteen. Normal age for puberty. So for fun, I'm going to say he goes through puberty. Not sure what it will lead to, but it should be fun.

I'll have the first chapter up in several hours hopefully.
