A Journey Together

CHAPTER 14: Oshawott's worst day

CHAPTER 14: Oshawott's worst day

Ash, Iris and Cilan had arrived Professor Juniper's laboratory, and they wondered what they could do since the Unova League ended. The Professor said that her father was doing investigations heading to the White Ruins, place where it was associated with the legendary Pokémon Reshiram. The three trainers accepted the idea and decided to go to that place, making stops along the way.

In middle of the way, they met with a mysterious man, he was called "N" and had the ability to communicate with the Pokémon. All of them talked a bit to know that man better. When he asked to them where they were going and they said that they were going to the White Ruins, N mentioned that he had an encounter with Reshiram, while Ash said that he had possibly encountered with Zekrom after landing in Unova for the first time. The mythology said that when the hero turns darkness to light and his heart became one with Pokémon, Zekrom or Reshiram would descend and lend the hero its power. In middle of the conversation, N asked to Ash what his dream was, and the young man from Pallet Town answered that he wanted to be a Pokémon Master. For the mysterious man, he didn't like what he heard, he said that he disliked to see Pokémon fighting each other under trainers' orders until hurting themselves and getting fainted. There was a strong clash of ideals between N and Ash.

During the trip towards the White Ruins, the three trainers said goodbye to N and later they returned to see him again in some occasions. What they didn't know was there was an evil organization inside Unova that wasn't Team Rocket. It was Team Plasma, what they wanted was to control the Pokémon with very advanced technology and bring out their true power. Ash and his friends bumped into the organization controlling the Pokémon so they destroyed everything in their path, but thanks to allied people that Ash met, they were able to disrupt Team Plasma's plans for the moment.

What Ash, Iris and Cilan didn't know either was that N was related somehow with the criminal organization from Unova. There were occasions where the three trainers came across with N trying to stop the evil team's plans and rescue the Pokémon that they had controlled. What Team Plasma wanted with N was to do a ritual to summon the legendary Pokémon Reshiram. After an intense conflict where the Unova region was in serious danger, Ash and his friends were able to stop Team Plasma completely and its grunts were arrested by the police. Once the criminal organization had been captured, N thanked Ash, Iris and Cilan and all of their Pokémon for stopping the evil team, and they said goodbye to N later for the last time.

In one point, Ash didn't know what to do, until he was told that he could return to the Kanto region, his home region, by cruise trips where they would make stops on several islands, called Decolore Islands. Ash accepted the idea and along with his companions decided to go to Kanto on cruise, where they would visit the island and have several adventures.

One afternoon that was night falling, Ash, Iris and Cilan were in the cruise as they watched how one of the islands that he had visited went far away. That island was the Scalchop Island, where a competition that Oshawott and Dewott participated was made. Ash's Oshawott participated there, but he sadly lost; not only that, he fell in love of a female Oshawott called Osharina. She sadly rejected him, so the Ash's Sea Otter Pokémon got completely sore, but his heart got healed quicker that they thought after seeing a Cinccino passing by from there. He fell madly in love of her and went to chase her to declare his sudden love. At least he returned to be happy.

More than a half hour had passed and for some reason, Oshawott didn't come back where the three trainers were. It was getting darker and they were worried about him, where would he had gotten so that he didn't come back with them? A Pokémon from the trainers, Snivy in this case, said to them that she would try to find her teammate for him to come back, they accepted her idea and the snake went to look for the water-type.
