AUTHOR'S NOTE

This story takes place after the events of the original series episode 'Johto Photo Finish', and is based on the episodes 'Cerulean Blues', 'Gotta Catch Ya Later', 'Hoenn Alone' and 'Get The Show On The Road'.

The events in this tale divert from the original continuity in two ways. Firstly Ash, Brock and Misty take a different route back to Pallet Town, stopping by Cerulean City, instead of Viridian City. Secondly, Magikarp's evolution into Gyarados occurs while Misty's sisters are still at the gym, thus preventing them from taking the cruise that would have necessitated Misty becoming the Cerulean Gym leader.

I take no credit for the original episode material used here. This story is written purely for entertainment purposes, with no copyright infringement intended.

Many thanks to jettmanas, who kindly did some original illustrations for this story.

The sun shone brightly upon them as they reached the top of one of the hills, and found a spot where they had a perfect bird's-eye view of the whole city below them.

"Wow, the city sure looks small up here," remarked Ash, as they all appreciated the view before them.

"Pi-ka!" agreed Pikachu, the yellow-furred electric mouse Pokémon, who was currently sitting on Ash's shoulder.

"Yeah, and you can see the gym from here too," smiled Misty, who as usual, was clutching Togepi, the little baby Pokémon, in her arms.
