Disclaimer I'm not the author nor do I take credit for this fanfiction in any way shape or form. The original author is Robin.exe
If you want to read his other fics go to fanfiction.net. I only added this to this platform to listen to it using the audio feature.
Also the chapter thing is set up like this.
If it's just a plane number it's the whole chapter. If there .0 to .9 it's because I had to split the chapter into segments to fit into this platform medium. Since the max is 20,000 words or 100,000 characters permited per chapter. So dont be surprised if it just suddenly cuts off at random. I eyeballed when to split into segments I try for the max per chapter.
Now there are some things that will be cleared up. Yes, I already know there are a lot of these fanfics about how things should go for Ash. Why I am taking a shot at it? Well, I've been in a Pokémon mood lately and have been watching the entire first season of Pokémon again thanks to Netflix airing all the way up till the Orange islands episodes. That and I've been thinking of writing my own version of how Ash's Pokémon journey should've gone. Plus, like Naruto, I'm actually following a mostly original story arc this time, and not trying to add too many original ideas for my own Pokémon fanfic. So yeah lol, now I'm going to lay down what will be different.
1. Ash is 14 years old in this story, after an incident happened with a close friend of his. The Pokémon Officials changed the age limit from 10 to 14 years old.
2. I will be following somewhat closely to the original canon, but all the while not exactly like them. Meaning I will follow the path Ash took in the anime, but different kinds of events and happenings will occur.
3. No, Ash will not have full access to his Aura, or any other kind of powers.
4. Ash will be somewhat smart, but not overly powerful. He will still be his goofy self, and will be inexperienced throughout his journey. I don't care what people say, you are not a prodigy when you start on your journey the first time.
5. Gardevoir and Blaziken are Ash's only hard-hitters, and they will not listen to him at all until a certain point and time in his journey when they will completely listen to his commands. As for Lucario and Ninetails, they evolved before they could have any battle experience, so their strengths are that of beginners.
6. There will be lemons in this story, which will begin around Ash's 3rd or 4th gym badge. The requester wants this to be an Ash x Pokémon pairing...at least far as I know. XD So you have been warned, and if you're not into that stuff, kindly hit that back button. ^^
7. Also, the female Pokémon will be Anthro to Ash's eyes, while everyone else will see them as regular Pokémon. This will be somewhat explained throughout his journey.
And that's about it! If anyone has a better title, I would love to hear it, but for now it will stay as it is. I know you're all probably going to find grammar problems and etc. So please be kind enough not to go into a raging fit about it, I have this apparent strange habit of whenever I start a new story and get working on the first chapter, it's littered with some errors lol. So I am aware of them, but I don't catch them right off the bat. So without further ado, and I'm glad that I'm back into writing again, hope you all enjoy the first chapter, of hopefully many to come with Ash and his Pokémon!
