In the forest of the Hoenn region, a 10-year-old girl with a red scarf around her head was riding her bike. "Whoo! Yeah!" she said, happily.

"Hi. My name's May and I'm 10-years-old. I'm on my way to meet my dad's friend, Professor Birch, and to get my beginner's Pokémon. Then I can begin my journey as a Pokémon trainer. But just between you and me, what I'm more interested in is traveling and seeing new places. There it is. Littleroot Town up ahead."

"Duskull!" said the ghost Pokémon, appearing at May's side, causing her to scream in fear and crash into a tree.

"I guess I should have worn a helmet." May said to herself. "Oh..."

"Duskull?" Duskull asked as she fell to the ground. "Duskull."

May gets back on her bike and rides back up the hill. "The truth is, I don't like Pokémon." said May. "Ah, voila."

Up ahead was Littleroot town. "But the traveling? I just love it." she added.

Narrator: Still determined to become a Pokémon Master and greatest Pokémon Trainer, Ash, Riley and their best friends, Pikachu and Meeko continue their quest as they sail towards the Hoenn Region.

Riley: We wonder what kind of Pokémon are in the Hoenn Region.

Meeko, nodding: Riol!

Riley, looking over her shoulder: We're just.....

Narrator: But right now, there're only one thing on Ash and Riley's minds.

In Ash's arms, Pikachu was sleeping as sparks came out of his cheeks. "Just try to rest, Pikachu." said Ash.

"You'll be okay, Pika-Pik." said Riley, worriedly.

"Riolu." said Meeko.

"As soon as we dock, We're gonna take you right over to the Pokémon Center." said Ash.

"Pik-Pika." Pikachu murmured, then sighs as Riley and Meeko quickly scratched his head.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Littleroot Town." said the man on the intercom. "Prepare for arrival."

"Littleroot Town?" questioned James.

"The city whose colors will never change." said Jessie.

"Huh? Hmm?" the boys asked her as they looked up.

"That's right." said Jessie. "Littleroot Town has remained true to its roots. Ah, me, I guess my colors have slowly been changing over the years."

"What do you mean?" asked Meowth.

"Jessie, have you been here before?" asked James.

"Mm-hmm." she answered, then turns her gaze to the sky. "Is this really all that there is?"

"Huh?"

"Following the twerp, his sister and trying to catch Pikachu and Meeko?" Jessie asked. "James, have we ever truly blasted off at the speed of light?"

"Is she speaking hypothetically?" James asked Meowth.

"If that means wacky, then yes." said Meowth.

"Wobbuffet!" said Wobbuffet, appearing out of its Pokéball, causing Jessie to call it back and sighs.

The ship finally docks at the port. "Excuse me, sir." said Ash with Riley and Meeko next to him. "Could you tell me where the Pokémon center is?"

"I'm afraid this town doesn't have a Pokémon center." said the man.

"Huh?"

"What?!" said Riley, then looks at Pikachu.

"Pik...Pik..."
