Episode 1: Welcome to Aloha

In the beautiful region of Aloha; there four islands. There is also the Aether Paradise, a place that was designed to protect the wild Pokemon being treated in the facility. However on the four main islands their are Pokemon their that are the guardians of the island. On Melemele Island the guardian Pokemon their is Tapu Koko, On Akala Island the guardian is Tapu Lele, on Ula'ula Island the guardian is Tapu Bulu and on the last island Poni Island the guardian is Tapu Fini.

Meanwhile on Melemele Island, in out on the beach front their was a boy with raven black hair out in the water riding on a sharpedo with his pokemon and best friend; Pikachu. "Alright! Woo hoo! This is awesome!" Ash cried out happily as he turned to his Electric Type partner, who was hanging onto his left shoulder. "Right, Pikachu!?" Ash exclaimed, which Pikachu agreed on. "Pika!" The Mouse Pokémon said happily, as the two laughed together, both believing that this was fun, indeed. "Alright... Full throttle, Sharpedo!" Ash said, allowing the evolved Water-Dark Type to dive under the ocean again.

Once they were underwater together, they watched the underwater scenery around them as it looked beautiful to them. There were colorful corals, and underwater plants. Plus, there were lots of Water Type Pokémon around here, especially the ones Ash had never seen before! Ash watched as he took a look at many of the Alolan Pokémon. There was one that looked like a water spider. There was another one that seemed to be small and lonely, until its friends came up to it.

There was a Pokémon that looked like a black slug with small purple spikes! Ash blinked in surprise as he poke the Pokémon, only for it to react by giving off a sudden peace sign to both him and Pikachu!

Ash was startled by this but grinned, before giving the peace sign back. However, Pikachu seemed to be out of breath as he struggled to swim up to the surface. Seeing Pikachu go up made Ash remember that he needed air again, as the he signaled his Sharpedos to go up, which they did so.

As they reached the surface, Ash and Pikachu took deep breaths, before they shook the water off of their face as something shot out of the water, right in front of them! It seemed to be a colorful piranha as they yelped in surprise.

Pikachu watched as his teetered and tottered, while trying to keep himself on Sharpedo, until he fell into the water, causing Pikachu to widen her eyes in worry. "Pika!? Pikachu!?" Pikachu cried in worry as he watched bubbles coming out of the surface, signaling that Ash was coming up.

After a few seconds, Ash gasped as he swam over to Sharpedo, holding onto its left fin for safety. "Hah... Hah... Made it, buddy..." Ash said weakly as he heard small laughter coming from ahead of them as they turned to see a blue-haired girl giggling, while a blue sea lion looking Pokémon laughed happily, patting its fins together in joy, as it seemed to have enjoyed seeing Ash fall and then come back up.The two were riding on a Lapras, with the girl looking like she was fishing for fun.

Ash noticed the girl laughing with the sea lion Pokémon as he laughed along, believing himself to be funny, too, especially with the act that he had done.

After saying their goodbye to the two, Ash and Pikachu headed back to the beach shore, where he gave his life jackets back to the young woman that was caring for the Water Pokémon Jet-Ski.

"The famous Alola Water Pokémon Jet-Ski! So, what did you two think?" The woman asked as Ash grinned at the attraction. "Man... It was super fun!" Ash said. "Pika! Pikachu!" Even Pikachu seemed to have enjoyed their time with the underwater jet-ski attraction. "Great! Come back again soon, you two!" The woman said as Ash nodded, promising to do so. "Right! We will!" He said. "Thanks for the ride. You did great!" Ash said, thanking the Sharpedo as he smiled in thanks to Ash.

Meanwhile out on the beach their was a red and black cat pokemon, this pokemon was knows as Litten, the fire-cat pokemon. It was laying down in the sand slowly falling asleep until Ash ran past it and stepped on it's tail causing Litten to cry out in pain before hitting Ash in the face with an ember attack causing Ash to cry out in pain. "Pika!" Pikachu said worried about Ash.

Ash looks at Pikachu and nods nervesly. "Yeah I'm fine Pikachu" He said as he rubs the back of his head as they continued walking heading back to where his mother was.

"Hey, Mom! We're back!" Ash cried, as he and Pikachu ran to reunite with Delia and Mr. Mime. "Hope you two had fun out there!" Delia said with a giggle as Ash nodded with a small smile on his face. "Yeah we did" Ash said as he explained with full details about the underwater jet-ski activity. "We went diving with the Sharpedo and we both saw lots of Pokémon that we've never seen before!" Ash explained excitedly. As he talked,Pikachu showed face expressions of the Pokémon that they've seen underwater.

"Well, we have Mimey to thank for winning the tickets for our Alola vacation! Thank you very much, Mimey!" Delia said happily, as Ash smiled in agreement. They remembered on how they were lucky to have their Alola vacation... thanks to Mr. Mime winning the Pallet Town drawing prize. "So! Shall we change and get going?" Delia asked, confusing Ash. "Where to, Mom?" Ash asked. "To Prof. Oak's cousin, remember? The Pokémon Egg request?" Delia answered, catching Ash's attention. "Right! I forgot!" Ash exclaimed, as he remembered on what they needed to do for the Professor.

Flashback

Before their trip to Alola, the Ketchum family met up with Prof. Oak, as they explained their vacation plan to him, which made him happy as he needed the Ketchum family to do something for him. "Mm... Yes, this will work out just fine! I was worried on how I was going to get this to my cousin in the Alola region! Now, I'm not!" Prof. Oak said in relief.

He took out a small case, which was revealed to be a Pokemon Egg! At seeing the Egg, Ash widened his eyes at the Egg in amazement as their Pokémon were amazed to see the Egg, too. "Wow... An Egg! What kind of Pokémon is it?" Ash asked, leaving the Kanto Professor to smile at the question.

"You'll just have to wait for it to hatch to find out!" Prof. Oak said, as he handed the case to Ash, who gently took it in his arms. "Oh man..." Ash said, his curiosity growing stronger. "Count on us! Well get it there!" said Delia, as she assured to Prof. Oak that everything would be fine with them.

Flashback End

Later on they were in the market as Delia walked up to a market booth to see which fruit would be the best to take home, back to the Kanto region. "Mm... It's so hard to make a decision." Delia said.

"Wow..." Ash said, looking around. Just before Ash could look around more a wild pokemon and popped out near by him and Pikachu.

"Whoa!" Ash yelped as he looked to see what it was. It was a Pokémon, that looked some kind of bug with small pincers, enough to pinch someone's nose very hard. "It's a Pokémon! So cool! I wonder what its name is!" Ash said, taking a closer look at the Bug Type.

The Pokemon grew annoyed with Ash getting too close to him as he used his pincers to pinch Ash's nose, causing Ash to yelp in pain, causing him to jump up high.

As the Bug Type finally released Ash's nose. It fell back underground, digging for an escape. But, Ash glared at where it was going, as he felt annoyed for his nose being pinched. But at the same time, he felt determined to capture it at the same time to learn more about this Pokémon.

"Okay! Let's catch it, Pikachu!" Ash said, his determination growing large. "Pika!" said Pikachu as the two ran after Grubbin.

While the two ran after Grubbin with the pokemon, Delia sighed happily after smelling another one of the fresh Alolan fruits. "Mm... Ash, look!" Delia said as she turned to see her son, only for her to discover that he missing!

Meanwhile Ash, Jasmine, Pikachu and Shimmer were still chasing the Grubbin. "Hey! Slow down!" Ash said, as he tried to catch up to Grubbin, who dug even faster to escape faster. He and Pikachu ran after Grubbin, who led them deep into the forest! Jasmine and Shimmer and finally caught up with Ash and Pikachu as they continued running.

As the chase continued on, the two and their Pokémon didn't notice someone else joining with the chase as this figure zipped between trees to stay out of sight.

But for Ash, he was more focused on Grubbin as he dove to catch the Bug Type, only for the Bug Type to escape again and use Dig once more! Using the Ground Type move, it dug underground to make its complete escape. Running to the hole, the Kanto trainer tried to dig the hole to find Grubbin, frustrated that the Bug Type was getting away!

Ash tried digging after Grubbin,however before Ash could continue on, something dropped on his head, catching his attention as he looked up!

It was a berry; a sitrus berry to be correct. There seemed to be nothing above him, which left both Ash confused. Ash looked around as he stood up, finally recognizing the place they were in. "Huh? Where are we Pikachu?" Ash asked, looking around. As he asked, Pikachu began to eat the Sitrus Berries that fell, as he enjoyed the taste of it.

Ash suddenly remembered on what he needed to do. Recalling of why he was here in the first place, Ash remembered the reason why he was out in the first place.

"Oh well... Where are we supposed to take that Egg again?" Ash asked himself as he was interrupted by a long moaning in the forest.

He remained stiff as he and Pikachu slowly looked around to see if someone was around. Pikachu remained curious. Ash on the other hand, knew what it could possibly be. "A Pokémon!" Ash said, as his prediction was correct.

Out of the rustling bushes, a big, pink and sweet looking Pokémon appeared, yawning from the small nap it took. "Oh wow!" Ash said, pointing at the Pokémon excitedly.

But Ash and his Electric Type didn't know this as they walked up to the waving Bewear. "Ha ha! It's waving! You sure are cute!" Ash laughed as he walked closer to it. But at that moment, Bewear's expression looked dark as it let out a loud screech, startling the two and their starter Pokémon.

Before any of them could move, the evolved Normal-Fighting Type smashed a tree down, leaving Ash and Pikachu stiff and shocked at the same time! Ash gulped as Bewear smashed more trees, like it was going berserk! It then screamed out loud, like it was either upset or angry!

Ash looks before running off with Pikachu running beside him both shocked and scared at the same time Bewear screamed as the chase was on! "AHHHH!" Ash screamed as he ran as fast as he could.

The two ran with all their might to escape the screaming Pokémon, as Bewear smashed more of the trees to get them out of its way! They kept running until they all realized that Bewear had stopped chasing after them. Nobody however had noticed a shadowy figure passing through a tree.

Ash was panting, exhausted with all the running he had to do. "Huff... Huff... What's up with that?" Ash asked before he saw something flying up! He looked up, to see someone riding on a Charizard! "What's that...? A Charizard? Must be an Air Ride Pokémon! That's awesome!" Ash said, as another excited feeling came up to him.

As Ash and Pikachu ran to follow the Charizard, they stopped to see a large area of some sort, which seemed to be a large school! There were trainers and students chatting around, while having fun with their Pokémon! There seemed to be lots of them as the sight of it left Ash excited.

Excited at seeing the new Pokémon, Ash climbed over the school fence so he could meet the new Pokémon. "Whoa! So many Pokémon!" Ash exclaimed as he tried to run to them, until and a girl tried to stop him from moving. "No! Look out!" She cried out, startling Ash as he felt rumbling close by!

He turned to his left to see a trio of Tauros charging to his way! Three people were riding on them, as it looked like they were having a race! But the warning failed as the Tauros were already in front of Ash! They trampled Ash, causing him to yell in pain. "WAAAAHHH!" "AAAARRRRRGHHH!" Him screams shocked the three riders, his sister and the girl as the green haired girl pulled Tauros back to stop the race. "Stop! Stop it, Tauros! Come on!" The green haired girl shrieked in surprise.

Pikachu ran to his beaten trainer as he was worried for his condition... even though this happens back in Kento with the 30 Tauros' he has. "Pika Pi!?" Pikachu cried out in concern as the girl ran over to him in worry as well. "Ah! Are you alright!?" The girl asked as Ash groaned, before getting up.

"Uh... Uh, yeah! Actually, I'm good at dealing with Tauros! You see, I've caught some!" Ash explained with a grin as his sister just sighs.

The girl shrieked when she felt something touch her as it turned out to be a Tauros touching her as she got behind Ash, surprising him. Then, when she noticed Pikachu beside her, she shrieked again, stumbling back as Ash frowned, suspicious at her strange behavior.

"Hey... You're kind of acting like you're scared of Pokémon." Ash said. "I am not scared! I love Pokémon... at least, from a research point of view." Lillie said to him as the three riders came back, meeting up with the two. "I'm sorry! You came out of the forest so quickly like that... I couldn't stop!" The green-haired girl said nervously, as she said her apology.

The chubby one smirked. "Hey, I see that Lillie has shown you she can't touch Pokémon!" The chubby boy said teasingly, as Lillie pouted at his teasing, before she denied it once more.

"I can touch them! Theoretically, that is! If I really, really wanted to... I'd just choose not to!" Lillie said annoyingly as the chubby boy sighed, before shrugging his shoulders. "Whatever you say Lillie."

"Don't worry! Don't get all frustrated and one day, you'll be able to... If you want." Mallow said, comforting the shy girl as the blue-haired girl agreed this time. "That's right!" The girl said as Ash blinked in surprise. He pointed at the girl, recognizing her from the beach!

"Ah! You! I saw you at the ocean fishing!" Ash said, causing the girl to remember. "For Bruxish!" The girl said.

"You know this guy?" Mallow asked Lana, as Ash explained. "I'm Ash Ketchum! I came from Pallet Town in the Kanto region! And this is my good buddy Pikachu! Nice to meet you!" Ash explained, as he gave a grin at his introduction. "Pika Pika!" Pikachu said.

"So... This place... is really the Pokémon School?" Ash asked, looking around as Mallow smiled, before making her answer. "That's right!" Mallow said as the Kanto trainer widened his eyes, amazed at this. "I've heard of the Pokémon School! Wow... this is it!" Ash exclaimed as the green-haired girl smiled, believing that she knew what Ash wanted.

"I guess you must've gotten lost!" Mallow said with a chuckle as the Kanto trainer let out a nervous laugh. "I'll show you around!" Mallow said. Mallow led Ash to the school inside. As the green-haired girl dragged Ash inside, the Pokémon sitting on her shoulder let out a sweet aroma!

The aroma made Pikachu feel relaxed as they sighed happily in content. "Come on! This way!" Mallow said, as Ash showed his displeasure of being dragged around. "Hey... You don't have to pull so hard!" Ash said, which Mallow ignored as the small tour of the school began for Ash.

Once they were inside, Ash was immediately amazed of what he was seeing. He ran around, taking a close look at the Pokémon skeletons. "What's that!? So cool! Awesome!" Ash laughed as he ran around, excited to be in such a great place.

Ash then ran to the window as he noticed two boys playing a ball game with a Primeape and Machamp as all four of them showed teamwork to each other, leaving both Ash and Pikachu even more amazed as they had sparkles in their eyes. "This is great! Where am I again?" Ash asked dreamily, as Mallow giggled at his question. "It's the Pokémon School! It's a place where Pokémon and students all study together!" Mallow explained with a giggle.

Jasmine just shook her head at her brother, as the three trainers walked up to a door, which seemed to be the prinicpal's door as Mallow knocked on it to call someone. "Principal, sir? I brought a new student!" Mallow called, shocking Ash..

"A new student!? N-no no no no!" Ash yelped, as he flailed his arms desperately to stop her. But before Mallow could react, the door opened, revealing Delia coming out with Mr. Mime! "Ash! You finally made it!" Delia said happily as she felt happy to see her son again.

" Mom!" Ash gasped as his mom stepped out to the hallway, greeting her son. Before Ash could speak up, the principal came out, greeting them.

"Alola, Ash! Welcome to the Pokémon School! Ho Solrock and roll!" The principal said, as he made a Lunatone face expression. Ash widened his eyes in surprise as he believed this man to be the Kanto Professor. "Professor Oak!? What are you doing here!?" Ash yelped in surprise, only to make the principal laugh at his shock.

"Ha ha ha! People tell me we look alike! I guess that's why you recognize me! The name's Samson Oak!" Principal Oak said with a grin, as Mallow sighed. "He's the principal of the Pokémon School, and the cousin of Professor Oak of the Kanto region, if you recall, Ash." Delia said, making Ash finally understand.

"Hm hm! Nice to meet you!" Principal Oak laughed as he made a Trapinch expression, while using his hands to make a Trapinch mouth, causing Ash, and Mallow to sweat drop at the principal's actions. "Uh huh... Nice to meet you, too..." Ash said nervously, while Mallow sighed.

"This won't be the only time you see Principal Oak doing this, Ash, he always makes jokes playing around with pokemon names..." Mallow said, folding her arms.

"We all need a little fun, a little dose of levity and laughter is what my rant is for" Principal Oak said making another pokemon face while Ash and Mallow just sweatdropped.

Later on, everyone was in the prinicpal's room, where Ash explained all the details of what happened to him when he and Pikachu chased after the Grubbin, following when they ran away from a Bewear. The story came to a conclusion where a Ash mentioned a person riding on a Charizard, causing the two to run all the way here and from the forest.

While they were talking, Mr. Mime was having a bit of fun with Pikachu, and Bounsweet. "And after Pikachu and I chased after Charizard, we kind of just wound up here!" Ash explained, leaving Mallow to come to the real conclusion. "So, that means... You're not a new student here after all!" Mallow said, leaving Ash to nervously laugh in agreement.

"I guess I... never really got the chance to explain." Ash explained, leaving Mallow to shake her head and accept the blame for her premature conclusion. "It's my fault... I'm in such a hurry all the time,I miss things!" Mallow said.

"Hey, Samuel! It's me! I've got your Egg safe and sound!" Principal Oak called, as he contacted his cousin from the Kanto region. With the communication clear, Professor Oak's face appeared on the plasma screen! "Excellent, Samson! That's what I like to hear! Thanks to you, Delia!" Prof. Oak said, as he thanked her.

"It's my greatest pleasure!" Delia said, giving a small bow to the Kanto Professor. As she did so, an idea suddenly popped into Mallow's head as she made her request to the school principal. "Say... Principal Oak, sir? May I show Ash around the campus?" Mallow asked, as Ash grew excited.

"Of course! Porygon! Run Away!" Principal Oak said as he showed his Porygon expression.

"Ready to go Ash?" Mallow asked. "Yeah!" Ash said as he, Mallow, Bounsweet and Pikachu walked out of the room.

As Mallow was showing Ash around campus they started hearing music being playing, followed by a beautiful singing voice. Pikachu listened and had recognized the voice before he jumps off Ash's shoulder and ran towards the sound as his cheeks started to spark up.

Ash looks. "Pikachu come back!" Ash said and follows after Pikachu, with Mallow behind him.

Meanwhile in a room near where they were, their was a girl standing their holding a guitar. This girl had light skin, black spiky hair that goes down to her waist, light brown eyes. She was wearing a white stomach shirt, pink jacket with white and black outlines on it and white short sleeves, black finger less gloves, dark blue shorts, and white sneakers. Up against was wall was a pink and black backpack.On the girls shoulder was a female Pikachu with blue eyes she nicknamed; Shimmer cause her eyes shimmer sometimes.

The girl was know as Jasmine and she was the one singing a love song that she had dedicated to the one boy she will ever love.

After she finished singing, Jasmine smiles softly as she pets the top of Shimmer's head softly and Shimmer let's out a happy cry. "I know, I miss them too buddy" She said. "Pika?" Shimmer said as she looks around as she cheeks sparked up a bit.

Jasmine looks up at the picture she had taken her last day in Kalos with the group, as she looks at Shimmer she noticed her cheeks spark up a bit causing her eyes to widen a bit. "No way... their here in Alola" She said referring to Shimmer's mate and his trainer.

Jasmine grabs her bag and puts the picture inside before putting the bag on. "Shimmer can you sense him?" She asked. "Pika! Pika!" Shimmer said running to the door.

Meanwhile outside the door Pikachu lead Ash and Mallow to a door. "Pika!" He said as his cheeks spark up even more.

Mallow looks. "Ash why are Pikachu's cheeks sparking up?" She asked.

Ash looks at Mallow. "They only spark up when his mate his around" He said and looks at the door and was about to open only to be stopped by Mallow.

"Don't" She said. "This room is forbidden, Jasmine doesn't let anymore enter her personal music room, what she does in there is privet" Mallow said.

With that said the door slowly opened as Jasmine walks out and she froze seeing Ash in front of her. "A-Ash?" She said softly as Shimmer jumps off her shoulder and tackled Pikachu is a hug and was nuzzling her mate. "Pika, Pika, Pikachu!" Shimmer said. "Pika pi!" Pikachu said.

Ash looks seeing Jasmine. "Jasmine... hey" He said nervesly. He was still shock about the kiss that she gave him before they went separate ways after their journey though Kalos.

Flashback

Jasmine and her friends, Clement, Bonnie, Serena and Ash were all standing with her in the airport as Jasmine was getting ready to leave Kalos and go back home to the Alola region. Shimmer was standing with Pikachu nuzzling him.

"Ash, thank you. I'm glade I came with you, your the kind of person I wanna be" Jasmine said a small smile on her face as Ash looked shocked. "Huh" He said as Clemont,Serena and Bonnie laughed a bit.

"Next time we meet your gonna like the kind of person I've grown in to" She said smiling a bit with a small wink as Ash smiled at her.

"Awesome" Ash said as Jasmine giggled a bit. "See you" Jasmine said as Shimmer jumps onto her shoulder and she walks to the escalator and Ash walked closed.

Jasmine closed her eyes thinking to herself before looking back. "Hey Ash there's just one more thing" She said. "Huh" Ash said as Jasmine comes back up. Ash Jasmine stood in front of his she gave Ash a quick kiss on the lips as Clement looked shocked and Bonnie and Serena looked happy before going back down the escalator blushing. "Thank you" She said softly.

Ash smiles blushing a bit and waves at her. "Take care of yourself Jasmine" He said. "Bye, bye" Ash said as Jasmine waves at them all.

End of flashback

Jasmine blushes a bit. "Hey, how have you been" She asked. "I-I've been great" Ash said.

Mallow looks at the two of them. "Jasmine did something happen between you and Ash during your last adventure together" She asked, "No nothing happened Mallow, come on let's just get to the classroom" She said her cheeks red a bit.

Mallow looks suspicious. "Ok" She said as she led the way to the class room.

As they were walking to the classroom Jasmine was thinking to herself about the kiss. She was glade that she had kissed her crush she just hoped that he feels the same way. While she was thinking Mallow had stopped by at a classroom!

"Now, this is our classroom!" Mallow explained as she presented the room to Ash, who was immediately in awe to see such an open classroom. "Whoa... Wow!" Ash said as he ran around, before he reached the outside of the classroom. The cool breeze blew onto his and Pikachu's face as the two relaxed with the soft breeze coming to them.

"This is so nice!" "Pika!" Ash said, with Pikachu agreeing. "That's not all that's nice. Remember the field? That's where you had ran into Tauros." Mallow explained, recalling on how Ash was trampled accidentally by herself and the others. "There's also a lake, and the campus is huge, and we learn all sorts of amazing things!" Mallow explained brightly.

This left Ash even excited to see more as another person came in, greeting the three trainers. "Hi! A big Alola to you all!" A man said, walking in. He looked like a professor, but in a more relaxed and intelligent way. "Alola daddy!" Jasmine said, giving a small hug to the Alola Professor.

"Professor? Dad?" Ash repeated in surprise, causing Mallow to explain. "Yeah! He's a teacher here! And he's also Jasmine's dad" Mallow explained before she turned to her teacher. "Professor I'd like you to meet Ash!" Mallow said as she introduced the Kanto trainer to her teacher. The Alola Professor let out a small chuckle before he gave a nod to one of his student.

"Prinicpal Oak just filled me in! Hi, Ash! Pikachu! The Pokémon School is a wonderful place! I hope you enjoy your visit here!" Prof. Kukui assured to Ash, who nodded in response. "Thank you!" "Pika!" The two thanked together as they felt happy to meet the Alola Professor.

Jasmine smiled at Ash's enthusiasm, only for his smile to drop as he heard a familiar roar coming from near the school entrance! Everyone in the classroom turned to see a boy confronting three suspicious looking people with a Charizard at his side! Noticing the suspicious people, Ash frowned at seeing them.

"Who are they?" Ash asked, as Jasmine groans and rolled her eyes. "Ugh... Team Skull... Why them again." Jasmine groaned as she ran out of the classroom, with Shimmer at her side. "Wait! Jasmine!" Mallow said as she ran after her friend. "Hey! Hold on, you guys!" "Pika!" Ash and Pikachu cried together as they ran after Jasmine and Mallow out of the school.

Prof. Kukui frowned at the scene ahead as he knew that this wasn't good. "Oh boy..." said the Professor as he ran outside to confront the scene.

Meanwhile, at the entrance of the Pokémon School, the boy and his Charizard glared at the three suspicious people, as they stepped off of their motorcycles to confront the boy. "Stopping our bikes the way you did was not the smartest of moves." The first grunt said in annoyance. "Yeah! Just like what my bro said!" The second grunt agreed, showing the same annoyance as the first.

"Team Skull doesn't like anyone getting in our way!" The first grunt said, giving the reminder to the boy, which the third grunt agreed on. "You've got that right!" The female grunt said with small laughter. The boy sharpened his glare as he remained unfazed by the small threats that the grunts were giving off.

"I don't remember blocking the road. The only people I see getting in the way are you." The boy said, amusing the first grunt as he began to taunt the boy even more. "Well! Listen to the big talker!" The first grunt said in amusement as the argument went on. "Ha! I dare you to say that again!" The second grunt said, making his taunt as well.

While the grunts were arguing with the boy, Lana, Sophocles, and Lillie watched with Popplio and Togedemaru as their friend was confronting their enemies. By that time, Jasmine, Ash, and Mallow had arrived in time to see the scene. "Who are those guys!?" Ash said, not liking them already.

"Like I said, they're Team Skull... Troublemakers of the Alola region, their pretty much the Team Rocket of Alola." Jasmine said bitterly. "Pika..." hissed the female yellow mouse Pokémon. "Yeah. They're always bullying us into a Pokémon battle! Not nice!" Mallow said, showing her upset about the evil organization in Alola.

By the time she had said that, Prof. Kukui arrived in time to see the grunts challenging one of his students to an unfair battle. "IF... you can beat us in a Pokémon battle, MAYBE we'll let you walk away." The first grunt said, as the second one made another deal. "Yeah! But if we beat you, then that Charizard of yours will belong to us!" The second grunt said in a tauntingly way.

At that part, the boy's face darkened before he raised it up to face his enemies in a battle. "You'll be sorry..." the boy said, which unfazed the grunts as they took out their Pokéballs! "Ha! We'll see about that! Come on out, Salandit!" The first grunt cried as he summoned his three Alola Pokémon out for battle.

"Yungoos!" "Zubat!" The two other grunts called their three Pokémon out, all calling them out for battle. As they were summoned, the nine Pokémon prepared to fight as they hissed and glared at their enemy, which seemed to be only one. "Now, tell your Charizard to fight!" The first grunt demanded, much to the boy's annoyance.

Just as he was about to send one of his Pokémon out, that was when Jasmine and Ash ran up, confronting the Team Skull grunts. "Hold it right there!" "Stop it!" The two cried out as they faced the grunts. The three all blinked to see new opponent's running up as both Jasmine and Ash glared at them, both annoyed by their antics and unfair battling styles.

At seeing the two confront them, Lana, Mallow, Lillie, Sophocles, and Prof. Kukui all gasped in surprise as Mallow and Lana called out to the two in worry. "Ash!?" "Wait, Jasmine!" The girls cried out as the second grunt sneered at the two. "Who do you two think you are!?" The second grunt demanded annoyingly, as Jasmine sharpened his glare.

"This has gone far enough, you imbeciles. Three against one is rough, but nine against one!? That's going way too far!" Jasmine said, as Ash aided his words. "That's right! You're all cowards! Ganging up against just one opponent!?" Ash snapped, as the first grunt scoffed at the two.

"Ha! And what are you two going to do about it?" The first grunt asked, which was immediately answered. "I'll fight, too!" "I'll be a part of this battle!" The two shouted out together as they got ready to fight. "Are you ready!? Um... And you are...?" Ash started to ask, until he realized that he was teaming up with someone he didn't know.

"Kiawe... But I don't need any help. Especially yours, Jasmine." Kiawe said, as he turned to his classmate. Jasmine looks at Kiawe and smirks. "Come on Kiawe you know you love to battle with me" She said.

"Those guys are really dangerous, Ash! Jasmine!" Mallow said in worry, as Jasmine looked. "Relax, Mallow. I've dealt with these kinds of people before." Jasmine said in assurance. "Pika pi!" Shimmer said confidently as she got into a fighting pose, much to the grunts' annoyance. "Won't be that hard!? Why, you little..." The second grunt snapped angrily.

"Pikachu! Ready? I choose you!" Ash said as he sent out his partner for battle. The Electric Type stood next to his mate Shimmer also ready to fight. At seeing the Kanto trainer's determination, the Alola Professor widened his eyes before he stroked his chin, feeling interested with the Kanto trainer. "Oh my..." Prof. Kukui said in amusement.

"Don't hurt yourselves, you two." Kiawe said, warning his comrades, as Jasmine glanced back. "Speak for yourself. Like I said, I've dealt with these people before. So don't worry about me." Jasmine said confidently, causing Kiawe to raise his eyebrows as he took out a Pokéball for battle. He closed his eyes for a moment before he sent out his battling partner.

"Now! Turtonator! Come on out!" Kiawe called as he summoned a giant Pokémon that had piercing spikes on its back. It looked like an unfriendly fire dragon, while sturdy as a boulder at the same time! At the sight of Turtonator, the Kanto trainer was amazed to see such a Pokémon. "Wow! Totally awesome! So that's a Turtonator, huh?" Ash asked in amazement.

"A Fire and Dragon Type. A strong and trusty friend. A wise one." Kiawe explained as the battle began.

Team Skull Grunts: Yungoos, Zubat, Salandit (x3) VS Jasmine, Ash, Kiawe: Pikachu(x3, Shimmer), Turtonator

"Alright, Salandit! Show 'em your strength with Venoshock!" The first grunt cried out loud. "Yungoos! Use Bite!" "Zubat! Leech Life!" The second and third grunt cried out loud.

"Pikachu! Use Quick Attack!" "Shimmer, dodge and counter with Iron tail!" Ash and Jasmine shouted out their commands, causing their partners to evade the Venoshock attacks! While not taking damage from the enemies' attacks, the Quick Attack and Iron tail together bashed the three Salandits away! Kiawe widened his eyes at the speed of the two together.

"Both of them are fast!" Kiawe commented in surprise as he noticed six more enemies coming to his way this time! The three Zubats and the three Yungoos struck at Turtonator, who only turned around, letting its enemies bite its spiky back. As the attacks made contact, the spikes on the Fire-Dragon Type's back suddenly exploded!

It blasted the three Zubats and Yungoos away, knocking them all on the ground, much to the grunts' shock and disbelief. Ash was shocked too as he never seen an attack or ability like that. "Ah! What happened!?" Ash gasped as Jasmine smirks. "That's one of Turtonator's Traps." She said, leaving Ash confused. "Traps?" Ash repeated in confusion.

"Right. If something touches the spine on Turtonator's shell, they'll blow up." Kiawe explained, leaving Ash even more amazed as his eyes sparkled in amazement. "Wow...!" It was all Ash could say as the first grunt used this chance to counterattack with his three Fire-Poison Types!

"Quick, Salandit! Use Flame Burst!" The first grunt yelled desperately, calling for another attack. At that point, one of the Salandits launched small rings of fire towards Pikachu and Shimmer, causing the two to counter the attacks. "Dodge and use Electro Ball Shimmer!" "Pikachu! Dodge it and use Thunderbolt!"

At the orders, the three Flame Bursts attacked were avoided as Shimmer and Pikachu dodged the attack. As for Pikachu, he launched an Electric Type attack at the Salandits! While Shimmer did the same with her electro Ball! The moves shocked them all, knocking the three down for a moment.

"That's power..." Kiawe said, impressed with the electrifying power. The other classmates seemed amazed as they all cheered for Ash, Jasmine, and Kiawe for the win. "Yeah! Way to go!" Ash said, as he felt more determined to win.

What he and Jasmine didn't notice was that a pair of eyes were staring at them, as if the figure was interested in the two. Other than that, the battle wasn't over as none of the grunts' Pokémon were going down that easily. But with the huge amount of damage they all took, it wouldn't be long before victory came for Jasmine and her two comrades.

It was then the time as Kiawe stepped up, preparing to make one last move. "I'll finish this." Kiawe said, catching Ash off guard. Before he could question Kiawe, Jasmine placed a hand on his shoulder, telling him to back up. "Brace yourself. Because this is going to be very hot." Jasmine said, confusing Ash once again.

"What do you mean?" Ash asked. Before Jasmine could answer, Kiawe's ring on his left wrist began to glow, showing a Type symbol as he made several poses, while calling for Turtonator's attention. "Alright! Turtonator, let's go!" Kiawe called, as the Fire-Dragon Type nodded in agreement, as it was ready to make one last attack.

Ash gasped to see this as the Team Skull grunts widened their eyes in shock. "Oh no!" The first grunt gasped. "Uh oh!" "Could it be THAT move!?" The other two grunts panicked as Kiawe made some words to chant as the 'move' process went on.

"The scenic! All my might! Of body! And spirit! With the great mountain of Akala! Become a raging fire and burn! INFERNO OVERDRIVE!" Kiawe yelled as he and Turtonator were in complete sync, as they made poses to show how strong their bond was. With the power and the spirit together, the Fire-Deagon Type created a giant burning fireball!

It blasted the fireball at the nine Team Skull Pokémon, creating a huge explosion in the process! Ash watched in awe as the smoke cleared to show all of Team Skull's Pokémon knocked out! Panicking for their loss, the grunts returned their Pokémon, annoyed and afraid at the same time. "Argh! This can't be happening...!" The first grunt panicked as the others panicked as well.

Winner: Ash, Jasmine, and Kiawe

Jasmine smiles happy with their win. Ash then looks at Kiawe wandering what he did. " Kiawe, what was that move you did earlier?" Ash asked. Pikachu felt as though he had the same question as he hopped onto Ash's shoulder.

"Pika..." Pikachu said as he was also amazed to see the move from before. "A Z-Move!" Prof. Kukui said, catching Ash attention by surprise.

"Z-Move?" Ash repeated in confusion. "Yep!" Prof. Kukui said, confirming his words as Jasmine took over and explained. "Z-Moves are like what you call, special moves that have been passed down in the Alola region." Jasmine explained as she allowed her father to continue.

"That's right! In Alola, there are four islands! And each of them has its own Guardian Pokémon! Only for those who participate in the ceremony called the Island Challenge are able to use Z-Moves!" Prof. Kukui explained, which seemed to have sparked Ash's interest as he was even more excited to know more about this region.

"Ah...! Island Guardians...! Island Challenge... And Z-Moves, too!" Ash said happily.. At seeing Ash's interest, Prof. Kukui placed a hand on both Ash and Kiawe's shoulders, pulling them together.

"Now, that was a real Mega Punch Level battle, with you two teaming up with Jasmine earlier!" Prof. Kukui said as he gave a small smile to his daughter, who smiled back happily. "Say, Ash! You seem to enjoy a great battle!" Prof. Kukui said, which Ash agreed on with a big grin on his face.

"Yeah! I want to become a Pokémon Master!" Ash said, leaving Kiawe surprised while leaving the Alola Professor amazed since Ash has the same dream as his daughter. "Oh! I see!" Prof. Kukui said. Ash to turn to look at Jasmine for a moment until he felt something fall on his head!

Jasmine noticed it too as she and Ash turned to see a Pokémon flying by and into the forest, soon out of sight. Ash was the first to ask what Pokémon it was.

"Who's that Pokémon?" Ash asked, catching the students' attention. Mallow, Lana, Lillie, Sophocles, and Kiawe all looked around, as they were confused on what Ash was saying. "Pokémon?" Sophocles repeated in confusion. "But where?" Lana asked, looking around. Mallow frowned, as she didn't see anything fly by, either.

"I didn't see anything!" Mallow said, as Jasmine turned to the others. "I saw it, too. But... I just don't if what I saw is true..." Jasmine said, admitting his unsureness.

"Whoa, you guys, too!?" Mallow said in surprise as Ash tried to explain. "Yeah! It was just there! It was a Pokémon for sure! It was yellow... It was this big... with an orange crest on its head!" Ash explained as he tried to explain the description of the Pokémon he, and Jasmine had saw just now.

The description left Jasmine to widen her eyes as Shimmer expressed her surprise, too. "Then, what you're saying is... we all saw..." Jasmine started to say, as Kiawe finished it.

"Tapu Koko..." Kiawe said in disbelief, as Lillie stepped up in surprise. "You two saw Tapu Koko!? Guardian of Melemele Island?!" Lillie asked, catching Ash by surprise. "Wow... Guardian? That's what that was...?" Ash asked.

That night at a restaurant, the Ketchum family were enjoying an Alolan cuisine, as Delia seemed to enjoy it the most, along with Mr. Mime. Taking a bite from her dishes, the mother of Ash smiled, beaming at the taste of the cuisine. "Mm... This is so good!" Delia said, complimenting the taste of the Alola dish.

Pikachu, and Mr. Mime seemed to be enjoying their food as well as they beamed at the tastes, too.

Seeing his expression left his mother smiling as she was sure something exciting happen today. "Anything interesting happen today, Ash?" Delia asked, catching Ash's attention. He turned to his mother, who smiled at what he was thinking just now.

"You seem a little... distracted this evening." Delia said, catching Ash by surprise. Ash smiled before looking at his mother and saying.

"You have no idea... how many interesting things happened today, Mom." Ash said, catching Delia by surprise as she smiled at her son's words. "I see..." Delia said happily. Before Ash could say anything else, he heard a Pokemon cry coming near them, as Ash shot up from his seat. Delia looked at Ash in surprise as he looked around.

As he kept looking, he spotted a familiar figure passing by, causing him to jump up and run after the figure. "Yeah! That was it!" Ash said as he ran off, with Pikachu following him! "Where are you going!? Pikachu!?" Delia said in surprise but just left them to do what they had too.

Meanwhile, at Jasmine's house, "I'm still surprised Jasmine, You actually saw the Guardian of Melemele Island, Tapu Koko?" Kukui asked his daughter in surprise. They had just finished eating dinner and they were eating cookies as dessert while Jasmine was writing in her song book working on a new song. She was humming and quietly singing.

Hey-o, here comes the danger up in this club
When we get started and we ain't gonna stop
We gonna turn it out till it gets too hot
Everybody sing, hey-O
Tell'em turn it up till they can't no more
Let's get this thing shakin' like a disco ball
This is your last warning, a courtesy call

Jasmine stopped writing in her book and she looks at her father. "Yeah I did, it was really cool" She said smiling softly. "I'm sure you mother would be proud if she saw you now." Kukui said. Jasmine smiles sadly at her father at the mention of her mother. Her mother, Amy was a pokemon researcher and had been studying Tapu Koko and the other guardians before going to Kalos to learn about Mega Evolution, while she was in Kalos, she had disappear and hasn't been heard from in years so the case was closed and she was presumed dead.

While Jasmine was thinking about her mother she heard a pokemon cry and she jumps up knowing who it was. She ran outside and looks into the sky seeing Tapu Koko again, he sounded like he wanted her to follow him. Jasmine looks at her father who gives her a nod saying it was alright for her follow Tapu Koko.

Jasmine nods before she ran after Tapu Koko with on thought on her mind. 'What does Tapu Koko want with me?'

Meanwhile, at the town's fountain, Jasmine and Shimmer had managed to follow Tapu Koko up there, before they had lost it as they looked around to see if the Guardian of Melemele Island was around. "Hey! Jasmine! Shimmer!" Ash cried out, catching the two by surprise. Jasmine and Shimmer turned just in time to see Ash and Pikachu running towards them..

"Hey, have you been following Tapu Koko, too?" Ash asked, getting nod from Jasmine in confirmation. "Yeah... Shimmer and I heard its voice together. It looked like it was asking us to follow it." Jasmine explained. "Pika..." Shimmer said nearly the same thing to Pikachu, which left the two to now understand.

"Ko!" Jasmine and Ash and their starters blinked to see Tapu Koko appearing in their sights, as Jasmine was the first to spot it. "There it is!" She said as she ran after the Guardian. Ash followed as he and Jasmine followed the Guardian of Melemele Island, up to the high viewpoint of the city.

The two of them caught their breaths as they confronted Tapu Koko, who didn't fly away this time. It instead waited for the two boys as Jasmine stared at it. "To think that I'm confronting the Guardian of Melemele Island... Tapu Koko... Again" Jasmine said in disbelief; She hadn't seen Tapu Koko since she was like 3 and they was only because she was with her mom that day when she encountered Tapu Koko and had saved her. "Pika Pikai..." Shimmer said, as he couldn't believe it, either. "That's Tapu Koko?" Ash repeated, amazed.

Jasmine looks and nodded to her best friend as she walked over to the Guardian, with Ash following. "Why do you keep coming to us? Is there something that you want to tell us both?" Ash asked, confused. As they stopped right in front of it, the Guardian of Melemele Island showed two items, before it used its powers to send the two items to both Ash and Jasmine.

The two friends looked at the items as they noticed that they were rings! "Ah!... Those look like the ones that Kiawe was wearing!" Ash said in surprise as Jasmine recognized these rings. "They're Z-Rings... The both have a Z-Crystal called Electrium-Z..." Jasmine said in disbelief.

Ash widened his eyes as he looked back at Tapu Koko, Jasmine did the same as well. A few seconds after they stared at each other, the Guardian of Melemele Island gave a nod to the two of them, as if it was signaling them that the Z-Rings belonged to them. Widening his eyes again, Ash smiled, before he turned to Jasmine, who nodded back to him.

Together, the two touched their new Z-Rings. As their fingers touched the crystals, Both Z-Ring began to glow bright yellow, startling them.

But soon after, after getting used to the glowing, both tof them watched as they held their new Z-Rings before they attached it to their left wrist. It was a perfect fit, as they looked back up at the Guardian of a Melemele Island. Tapu Koko gave a small nod to the two before it flew off and into the night sky.

"Huh!? Hey! Wait a minute!" Ash said as he tried to stop the Guardian Pokémon, only for it to be too late as Tapu Koko was already out of sight. Jasmine walked over to Ash, standing besides him as she looked back at the Z-Ring Tapu Koko had given her, along with the Electrium-Z crystal. She looked to where Tapu Koko had disappeared off to, before she smiled a little.

Jasmine looks at Ash, "What did you think that was about?" Jasmine asked, causing Ash to frown, as he was unsure about this, too.

"I don't know... But whatever we did, I think Tapu Koko had a reason for giving us these Rings!" Ash said with a grin, as he showed his Z-Ring to his best friend and crush. Jasmine only smiled at that answer as she nodded slowly back a small smile on her face as well as a small blush.

Later, after saving good night to Ash, Jasmine headed back home, where she went inside the house to see that all the lights were out. "Dad...?" She asked. "Hmm... he must be asleep" She said as Shimmer nodded in agreement.

Quietly and stealthily, Jasmine and Shimmer crept up to their room, where they got ready to sleep. Jasmine changed into her pajamas before she took her Z-Ring off. She placed it on her bedside table, preparing to show it to her classmates and father tomorrow morning before class starts.

Once everything was ready, Jasmine slipped into the covers of her bed, ready to fall asleep for the night. Shimmer slipped inside the covers with her, as she snuggled onto her trainer's chest. "Sleep tight, Shimmer." Jasmine said, as Shimmer grinned back with a nod. "Pika Pika." Shimmer said as she slowly fell asleep, causing Jasmine to fall asleep, too. However she has a dream... or a vision from her past memories.

Dream

It was a warm summer day. A young 3-year-old girl was with her mother; Amy who was a Trial Captain. Anyways the young girl was with her mother at the Ruins of Conflict since her father was away on business in the Kanto region.

Anyways while her mother was busy with a trial goer the 3-year-old was sitting in the grass when she found a pokemon that interested her so she slowly stood up and walks after the pokemon to the bridge. While she was walking across the bridge her mother noticed she was gone and saw her on the bridge. "JASMINE!" Amy screamed trying to run to her as the bridge broke and Jasmine fell only to be saved by Tapu Koko.

After thanking Tapu Koko they noticed Jasmine fell asleep in it's arms. She was asleep peacefully. While she was asleep Tapu Koko and Amy talked, while talking Amy found that in the future Jasmine with her friends would be the chosen ones to protect Alola.

End of dream

Jasmine woke up in a cold sweat tears in her eyes. "Mom" She whispered into the darkness sadly as she wipes her eyes. "Why did I dream that? And why did mom and Tapu Koko mean by me and my friends being the chosen ones?" She thinks to herself as she lays back down in her bed and goes back to sleep.

The next morning, "GAH! We overslept, Shimmer! Wake up!" Jasmine screamed in panic, causing Shimmer to yelp in shock as she woke up as her trainer got dressed and slips her Z-ring on her wrist and she grabs her bag and song book before going downstairs only to stop at the top of the stairs hearing Ash's voice.

Jasmine looks. "Why is Ash here?" She thought to herself as she stayed quiet and listened to his conversation.

Meanwhile, "Prof. Kukui's house is awesome! Know what!? There's also a Training Room in the basement!" Ash exclaimed as he jumped up and down, filled with joy and excitement. "Pikachu! Pika!" Pikachu said, as he showed his punching abilities to Delia.

Ash had contacted Delia on the TV video program, thanks to Prof. Kukui's help, which allowed them to call Delia if they needed to. The mother of Ash smiled happily at her son's excitement as she said her words to him. "That's great! I love seeing you and Pikachu have a great time!" Delia said with a smile.

Walking up to the plasma screen, Ash said his thanks to his mother. "And thanks, Mom." Ash said, much to Delia's confusion. "When I said I wanted to stay on the island, you said fine right off the bat!" Ash said, causing his mother to smile."I would've let you stay here anyway! I am your mother, after all. I had a feeling that you might ask me that! And I was right!" Delia explained happily.

At that time Jasmine choose to come down stairs. "Ash?!" She said shocked. "What are you doing here" She asked. Ash looks at Jasmine. "I've decided to stay in the Alola region for my next adventure, and go to the pokemon school" He said happily. "Really?" She asked.

Ash nodded back with a nod, before he gasped as he picked up his hat and backpack, as he prepared to leave. "Ah! I gotta go! I start Pokémon School today!" Ash said looking back at the screen as Delia smiled in understanding. "Have a great time! And be careful!" Delia said, which Ash nodded at. "I will!" Ash said as he ran out of the house, after he ended the call.

Jasmine looks. "Ash wait, wait for me!" She yelled and ran after him Shimmer on her shoulder as she puts her cap on backwards.

Ash and Pikachu both ran out of Prof. Kukui's house as they ran for the Pokémon School, after Jasmine and Shimmer caught up with them.

What they didn't know that today... would be the start of their adventures in the Alola region, while having new friends and Pokémon along the way for the trip along with an old pokemon.
