(3) Tell Us About It (OneShot Collection) (Pokemon)

"Alright, Bulbasaur, Ash's Kalos Pokemon are ready to be introduced." Tracey told the grass type, who promptly walked into the field and shot off a patterned solar beam.

Yes, there was a pattern for all of Ash's pokemon.

Ash's pokemon were all quick to join Bulbasaur in the field, all waiting for the newcomers. Tracey through up five pokeballs, pokemon coming out of three of them.

Gasping could be heard from some of the group.

"Ash hasn't permanently released a pokemon since Johto!" Kingler exclaimed.

By permanently released, they all meant Ash still had their pokeball, but he left them behind somewhere for some reason and they didn't return when Ash came back to Kanto. They half expected them all to return, as Ash still had their pokeballs and they are part of the family, after all. Even if the majority didn't know a thing about them.

Staraptor had moved to introduce himself to Talonflame, Heracross and Gible doing the same to Hawlucha and Noivern, respectively.

"Which one of you were first?" Swellow questioned, "Personally, I'm guessing Talonflame. Us birds tend to come first, after all."

"Excuse me?" Came Heracross voice.

"Plus Butterfree was caught before Pidgeot." Muk added.

"Both can still fly." Torterra spoke, "Even if they aren't birds."

"Actually, it was Greninja." Talonflame spoke, "You guys watched the league right?"

"Never works out." Bulbasaur replied, "We always try to watch, but something always goes wrong. We did see Greninja and Goodra though, we all were sure to watch the finals on our own."

"Still upset he lost to another of your species?" Sceptile questioned Charizard.

"YES! He was so close to winning too." Came Charizard's reply.

"So, who was the ace? We all assumed it was Greninja, but you never know." Noctowl spoke.

"I was hoping it'd be Goodra." Krookodile said, "Then maybe we could show these starter aces who's boss."

"You're one of the weaker aces." Infernape commented.

"Sorry to break it to you, but Greninja was the ace of the team." Hawlucha spoke.

Krookodile muttered something, but otherwise didn't react.

"Did this Greninja have a tragic backstory?" Came Bayleef's question, "Or do any of you? Or Goodra?"

"One of them has to." A Tauros commented.

"And who was the egg? Or did one of the traveling buddies have the egg?" Donphan asked.

When the other pokemon noticed that the Kalosian trio seemed a bit exasperated, Quilava moved to speak up.

"They always happen. Someone, normally the fire starter, if there is one, has a tragic backstory and there's always at least one egg. I'm the only fire starter here without a tragic backstory." Quilava spoke.

"I'd say Goodra had the tragic backstory, right?" Hawlucha asked, the question directed towards Talonflame.

"Yeah." Talonflame agreed.

"Wasn't Greninja's kinda tragic too?" Noivern questioned before moving to look at the rest of the group, "I was the egg."

"Oh, true." Hawlucha replied.
