"I'm going to become an even more attractive, incredible woman... One you really won't be able to take your eyes off of!" The escalator at the Lumiose City airport began its descent, and with it, the most important chapter of Serena's life came to a close. One sudden burst of courage, a fleeting kiss, and words left hanging in the air forever changed a relationship that, to Ash, had seemed like mere friendship. What happens to the heart of a boy who, until now, could only think about battles, when a burning, unfamiliar tingling lingers on his lips? How do you find your own unique voice in an unfamiliar world, when that iconic blue jacket is no longer by your side? "Ash & Serena: Chasing the Dream" is an emotionally deep continuation of the cult-classic Pokémon XYZ series, serving as a canonical bridge between the Kalos, Sun & Moon, and Journeys eras. It tells two parallel stories of ambition, growing up, and building one's own identity. In Hoenn, we dive into the spectacular world of Pokémon Contests. Desiring to create her own unique style, Serena enters a highly competitive arena, learning from the legendary May and facing ruthless rivals. Meanwhile, in Alola, we follow Ash's journey. Beneath the surface of exotic vacations, the boy from Kanto undergoes a profound emotional awakening as he faces tough life lessons and discovers the true weight of an unconditional bond. Though oceans apart, there is no room for doubt. The rule is simple: you conquer your world, I'll conquer mine, and when we both stand at the summit - we will meet again. This is a story about dreams that can endure any distance. Updates: Every Monday and Friday! Polska wersja językowa jest dostępna na moim profilu jako "Ash i Serena: Goniąc marzenia"!

Top 8. Three times. Ash Ketchum is eighteen years old with one shot left. The Kalos League is his last chance to qualify for the Masters' Eight, and his track record says he's not good enough to get there. He's going anyway, vowing to utilize his strongest Pokemon from Oak's ranch. He also has a blue-haired coordinator who sees through every wall he puts up and a region full of trainers, rivals, and friends who will push him further than he's ever gone. Ash sets out on the journey that will define everything. But Kalos has its own plans. Mega Evolution is changing the game. Old friends are finding new paths. New faces are finding theirs. And the lines between partnership and something deeper are getting harder to ignore with every city, every battle, and every morning spent across a shared table. Some things you can't outrun. Some things you shouldn't. Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon. Started: April 4th, 2022 Rewrite Started: 3/30/2026
