Ashley Ketchum's alarm clock blared like a wild Jigglypuff concert gone wrong. She groaned and slapped at it blindly, missing twice before finally smacking it silent with a loud clunk. The sunlight was merciless, creeping in through the gap in her curtains and landing right across her face. "Ugh, Sun! Take a hint," she mumbled, yanking her blanket over her head. For a split second, she entertained the brilliant idea of using Dig to escape deeper under the covers. Her toes wiggled as if prepping for action, but her brain kicked in a moment later. Today wasn't just any day-it was the day. Her eyes shot open like a Staryu's gem, and she bolted upright in bed, her blanket flying off her like a Togekiss taking off. "Today's my first day as a trainer!" she squealed, practically vibrating with excitement. She threw her legs over the side of her bed and stood up so fast she almost tripped on her Pikachu-patterned pajama pants.

"Tell me Ash, would you like me to teach you about pokemon? About how to take care of them? Cure them when they get hurt? Would you like to learn about becoming a trainer?" Professor Oak asked the speechless boy, making a decision that would change the life of Ash completely. *Hi! There will be a few changes to the story, mostly about the age of the characters. Ash's age and everyone who he had ever traveled with or was part of his friend group will be increased by five years. Lance, Professor Oak, Delia, Drayden, every other character on the anime will keep their age. Also, the age for kids to start their pokemon journey will be fifteen.

Ash Ketchum has finally won a Pokemon League, became a Generalist Master, defeated the Elite Four... but he lost against the Champion of Sinnoh. However, that's not all he has managed. He became an Ace Captain Ranger, an Aura Knight, and named the future Champion of the Orange Archipelago Pokemon League. Now he is going to a new adventure in Unova, with Max and Riley. They are not only going to face the Pokemon League of the region, but they are also facing off against their new enemy: Team Plasma. Will Ash be able to handle the pressure of being a champion? Will he defeat Team Plasma and fulfill his duties as the Chosen One? Or will the enemy prevail and the world will be submerged into darkness?

Yes, I finally did it! A Pokemon fanfic of Ash getting serious after the Battle Frontier Arc and training before going to Sinnoh. There will be the Tauros trade and aura training. A smarter, pokemon ranger, aura guardian Ash Ketchum. Ash will be paired off with a guy. If you don't like it, don't read. I still don't know which. You can leave me a comment with a suggestion.

Izuku has been told he won't become a hero or a Pokémon trainer. Now, he can't wait to prove them wrong! He will make a difference! Together with his team of Pokémon, he will catch the all! With the power of friendship! No one is expecting a quiet boy to walk into UA with an army of Pokémon behind him! This is cross posted on ao3. I DON'T OWN BNHA/MHA, POKEMON, OR ANY PICTURES THAT ARE USED IN THIS STORY. I write these stories for fun.
