Ash's friends and family have betrayed him and now he is the champion of the Kalos region, now know to be one of the strongest leagues there is. With the Kalos league hosting a event where all the strongest trainers far and wide come to take part, what will happen when all of Ash's ex friends show up to compete as well. Thanks to CoolWolfMaster for making me an amazing cover!

This cover was made for me by LillianDuncan. Loyalty shall be broken. Bonds shall be severed. Love shall be denied. Or so it seems. Join Ash as he embarks on a dangerous journey through the Alola region unlike one he's ever experienced before. His mission? To free his loved one from the darkness. I do not own Pokemon and their characters. (If I did, Ash wouldn't be ten years old for over twenty years, and he wouldn't be dense as a rock. And Greninja and Serena would still be with him.) I do own this story, though.

5 years after Ash's death, the ultimate Pokémon tournament is being held. All the best trainers are competing in it. A mystery masked trainer suddenly appears and intense drama unfolds. He seems to have an interest in a certain blue-eyed performer, but why? Who's the masked trainer? What's his goal? And most importantly, who'll win the tournament?

A new teenage boy, age 16 to be precise, has just arrived in Kalos under orders from the Kanto Protection Association and is attending the Lumiose High School. This new boy seems to be out casting everyone and refuses to open up. The only happiness he ever demonstrates is towards Pokemon. Will the cause of the problem be discovered? Will a certain person he meets be able to find out more about him? Will the boy crack his emotionless shell, or is there something greater ongoing?
