Part #1: Welcome To Pikachu Valley


50 Years Ago...

There was a beautiful place only inhabited by 3 species: Pichu, Pikachu, and Raichu.

It was a beautiful place with sparkling waterfalls and fresh green grass. There were shimmering, fast running rivers, and warm patches of sunlight. There were trees and bushes, bursting with berries of all kinds.

Some of these pokemon used hollow trees for their homes, while others dug dens to live in. This place was protected by a magical psychic barrier that made the entrance look like the wall of a cliff and while in this place, you could see the sky, but if you looked down from the cliff at this place, you would only see the rock hard bottom of a giant valley.

This wonderful place was called Pikachu Valley.

Pikachu Valley was full of thunder stones that were kept in a secret hiding place. When a pichu reaches a certain age, it is granted the choice to evolve into a pikachu. If it does, then when it reaches the next certain age, it was once again granted the privilege to evolve.

All pichu were born in Pikachu Valley, but once they become a certain age, they must choose between Pikachu Valley and the Outside World. If a pichu, pikachu or raichu (depending on if they chose to evolve) were to choose the Outside World, they would forget about Pikachu Valley completely, as to not endanger it of being discovered.

This item is the reason the waterfalls and rivers kept running. It was the reason the grass stayed fresh and the trees stayed green all year-round: The Pikachu Crystal.

The Pikachu Crystal is what gives Pikachu Valleys all it's power. That is why if it were taken, rivers and waterfalls would run dry, the grass and trees would die, flowers would wilt, berries would go rotten, the psychic barrier would fall, and Pikachu Valley would be no more.

All was well in the Pikachu Valley, that is, until one day. On that fateful day, an evil, power hungry trainer and his mimikyu found Pikachu Valley. They forced all the pokemon out of their homes and stole the Pikachu Crystal. Pikachu Valley was never to be seen again...

Ash, pikachu, and mew were wondering through the forest, trying to find the nearest town. "I told you that you'd get us lost!" Pikachu yelled. "It's not my fault humans don't know how to make a map!" mew shot back. "Guys stop it!" Ash said. They ignored him. "And I suppose it's their fault you couldn't hold it too?" pikachu inquired. "Well excuse me, but these paws weren't exactly made for holding things!" mew shouted. Mew was in the form of eevee, since they made a deal that if mew was good she could become one. She was good, so here they were. Mew had wanted to read the map and direct everyone, but the wind blew it away and now they were completely lost.

Ash suddenly stopped walking, right by the wall of cliff. His pokemon noticed he wasn't with them and they turned around and saw him standing there. "Ash?" mew asked uncertainly. "Are you ok?" pikachu asked. Ash was deep in concentration. "I sense something behind this wall." Ash finally said. Mew perked her ears up and said, "Your right! I sense an incredibly strong psychic power coming from there." Pikachu closed his eyes and stood really still. "I sense more beings. They're small and-" pikachu suddenly stopped. "What is it buddy?" Ash asked his partner. "They're pikachu!" Pikachu's eyes suddenly shot open. "There's a place full of them behind this wall! And raichu too!" pikachu exclaimed. "That's impossible there's nothing but- AHH!" mew suddenly fell into the cliff wall. She had been leaning against it to prove her point when it suddenly disappeared.

Pikachu and Ash watched in shock as mew tumbled right through the cliff's wall. "What in the world..!" pikachu shouted. Ash took a step towards the cliff wall and stuck his hand out to it. It went right through it! "It's not real..!" Ash whispered to himself. "Wha!" pikachu asked. "It's not real! It's an illusion!"

On The Other Side Of The Strange Wall

A Few Minutes Earlier

Loud sirens were going off, and lots of shouting could be heard. Red lights were whirling all over. "Human Alert! Human Alert! Human Alert! Human..." a mechanical voice kept saying the same thing over and over. "Defense brigade ready!!" a raichu said. "All raichu and pikachu at the ready!" he continued. This was the chief.

A female pikachu came running up. "Sparkle what are you doing here?! You should be at home!" the raichu said. "I just wanna help!" she said. "But what if you get caught! It's not safe!" he said. "But-" "No buts! Go back!" he said. She sighed and turned around. Just then, another raichu came running. "Dad! I'm...so..sorry!" he said panting. "Ray, take her back!" the chief barked. The panting raichu, now identified as Ray, led his sister back to their home.

ϞϞ (๑⚈ ․̫ ⚈๑)ϞϞ

"But I wanna help!" Sparkle argued. "No! Just stay in there and make my life easier would you..?!" Ray said, leaving Sparkle at the door of her room. "Hmph! Maybe I can't help, but I can at least see what's going on! Not like I'll get too close or anything." she said to herself.

She scampered out the door and back towards the entrance to the valley. She hid behind boulders and stuff as to not be seen.

Just then, a pink thing tumbled through the barrier. 'What is that thing?' Sparkle thought.

ϞϞ (๑⚈ ․̫ ⚈๑)ϞϞ

"Ahh! It's a bunch of pikachu and raichu!" mew shouted. A hand appeared through the barrier. 

"DEFENSES READY!!" the chief shouted.

Mew flew up and tugged on the hand. "Whaa!" Ash tumbled through the barrier. Pikachu ran in after him. "What the heck mew!" Ash said. "Ash! A bunch of pikachu and raichu are staring at us and they don't look happy!" pikachu shouted. Ash looked over and was shocked! There were hundreds staring at them!

ϞϞ (๑⚈ ․̫ ⚈๑)ϞϞ

Sparkle looked at the new pikachu shocked. She ran home as fast as she could. She ran upstairs and banged open a door. "Big brother!!" she yelled. Ray took off his headphones and looked away from a computer. "What now! I was streaming!" Ray said. "Big brother is back!" she shouted. "I am your big brother and as far as I know, I haven't gone anywhere!" he said. "No, not you, idiot! Spark!"
