A Legendary Week!

Day 5

Day 5

"Hey Ash, remember me?"

Ash looked at the Pokemon in front of him, "Yeah, how are you doing Manaphy?"

"I'm great!" said Manaphy, "How's May?"

"Last time I checked, she was doing well," said Ash, "she even earned the title of 'Princess of Hoenn' for her coordinator skills,"

"That's great!" said Manaphy, "Hey, when you see May again could you ask her if she wants to come visit me at Samiya anytime?"

"But I thought it was only visible during a lunar eclipse," said Ash, "won't it be hard to find?"

"Not necessarily," replied Manaphy.

"What do you mean?"

"Well," said Manaphy, "as people who have been blessed by the temple, you, May, Max, and all your friends who came with you will be able to find Samiya at any time,"

"How do we find it?" asked Ash.

"Well," said Manaphy, "just think of Samiya when you're near the ocean. If you do it right, you'll know exactly where it is. The only problem is that sometimes it can be pretty far away."

"Really?" asked Ash, "Ok, I'll tell May as soon as I get home,"

"Thanks Ash," said Manaphy, "don't forget, you're always welcome there too,"

Ash smiled. "Don't worry, I'll come and visit sometime,"

"Alright," said Manaphy, "I'll see you there!"

"K, bye Manaphy!"

"Bye Ash!"

"Hmm," said Ash after Manaphy had left, "that sounds like something cool to do sometime,"

"Yeah," said Pikachu, "it would be nice to be able to visit Samiya without being chased by some crazy pirate guy or having the temple flood while you're in it,"

"Or drown while trying to fix the Sea Crown," Ash added jokingly.

Pikachu shrugged. "Eh, I think you're basically invincible at this point,"

Later...

"You know buddy," said Ash, "I know we keep getting stronger, but what do you think could top defeating Leon?"

"I don't know," said Pikachu, "maybe we'll just find out? After all, we couldn't think of anything better than winning the Alola league last time,"

"Personally, I would say just listen to your truth,"

"And your ideals, that should give you an answer,"

"Oh, hi guys!" said Ash, waving to the two Unovian dragons. "Uh, what do you mean by that?"

"Well," said Zekrom, "if you want to find a new challenge, you should ask yourself what your ideal goal is,"

"And," added Reshiram, "you must use your truth to make that goal a reality,"

"Huh?" asked Ash.

"Sorry," said Pikachu, "let me put it in simpler terms, pick a goal and work for it."

Reshiram and Zekrom sweatdropped. "It sounded much cooler our way," said Zekrom.

"Yeah," said Pikachu, "except Ash here doesn't understand anything beyond logic,"

"I can too!" protested Ash.

"Let me rephrase that," said Pikachu, "You can't understand anything beyond simple logic except in battles or when it's about food,"

"But-" started Ash, "Oh whatever. Um, anyway, how's N doing?"

"He's doing well," replied Reshiram, "he simply needed to understand not all trainers are bad, and that humans and Pokemon can work together as a team. Ghetsis presented his idea as good, but it was corrupted with evil, thus N was heavily misinformed."

"That's good," said Ash, "he is a nice guy,"

"Yes," said Zekrom, "I think we were able to teach him how to observe the world from an ideal standpoint,"

"Speaking of which," said Ash, "which one of us is the Hero of Ideals? I mean, I know one of us is the Hero of Ideals and the other is the Hero of Truth but..."

Both dragons looked at each other.

"Let me guess," sighed Pikachu, "more timelines?"

"Probably," said Zekrom, "although we haven't talked to Dialga about it yet,"

"Let's just say that, at the moment, you and N can consider yourself both," said Reshiram, "it keeps things, should we say, simpler,"

"That's simpler?" asked Ash.

"I feel like we don't want to know the other way," said Pikachu.

"Hello Ash,"

"Nebby!" said Ash, "How have you been?"

"I've been well," said the Solgaleo, "and you?"

"I'm doing pretty well," said Ash, "traveling through Galar and re-visiting other regions was super exciting!"

"Sounds fun," said Nebby, "though I'm curious, are you a Pokemon Master now since you beat the world's strongest trainer?"

"I don't know," said Ash, "I never really had anything in mind when I started my journey. I know being the strongest trainer is part of that, but I just feel like something's missing,"

"Well," said Nebby, "maybe you'll find your answer here,"

"Do you know something about that?" asked Ash.

"No," said Nebby, "I just heard some of the other legendaries talking about it. I'm not sure if I was supposed to tell you that,"

"Meloetta and some of the others hinted about something as well," said Pikachu, "maybe only certain legendaries know?"

"I'm not one of the major legendaries like my mom or dad so I don't know that much," said Nebby, "but I'm pretty sure that they have something in store,"

"Oh well," said Pikachu, "I have a feeling we'll know eventually,"

"Right," said Ash "I almost forgot to ask, how is Ultra Space?"

"I would say it's going pretty well," replied Nebby, "we're almost done restoring it to how it was before. Getting Necrozma back helped a lot but there are a few things that need more time to be completely restored."

"That's great! Is Naganadel doing well?" asked Ash.

"Pretty well," said Nebby, "I think he's the leader of the Poipole colony now,"

"Really?" asked Ash, "That's great! Tell him I said hi!"

"Will do," said Nebby, "it's the least I can do to repay you for taking care of me,"

"It was no problem," said Ash.

"Actually..." said Pikachu.

Nebby laughed. "I've heard I was quite the handful for you and your friends."

Ash laughed as well. "Yeah, but it was fun,"

"I agree," said Nebby, "unfortunately, I have to go now, but if you ever visit Alola again make sure to drop by Ultra Space for a visit!"

"Sure!" said Ash, "See ya!"

"Goodbye Ash!"
