What if by a twist of fate Ash was not the happy go lucky boy he was supposed to be? 
Living with a widowed mother, bullied by most of the other children and a strong will to become a Pokemon Master one day, changed him and he became the cold, serious and hard working young man he is today. This is the story of his adventures in Kanto with his arch-enemy Gary Oak and the girl who was crushing on him since...forever, Leaf Green.

With a trusty Ralts by his side he begins his grand adventure into the Kanto region not as the pathetically weak, loud and obnoxious trainer he was supposed to be, but as the serious, hard working and cold persona that listens to none and goes his own way. But the dark lurks in the corner as an old threat re-emerges...Team Rocket.

Can he stop the evil people threatening to destroy his homeland? Can he become the Pokemon Master he wills to be? Will he find the love of his life in his childhood friend?

This is a story to answer those questions...This is a story of the spirit of adventure...Of friends and rivalries...Of love and hate...Of happiness and sorrow...But most of all this is the story of your choices in life. This is about how a path you choose affects you.

"...In the end...It doesn't matter who you are or what you've become. What matters at the end of the day are the decisions you made...The paths you chose...The roads you walked and where that has led you...Now...As I stand upon the roof of my office...My extra cool champion cape fluttering in the wind behind cliché style *chuckle*...And look back at the choices I made...I feel regretful...Guilty. And yet...I walk ahead...I move on with a smile on the face...Because...I learnt from my mistakes...My shortcomings...And became better than I used to be...And now...I know what truly matters in the end is...
                             ...Going My Way..." 

- Ash Ketchum, 19 Year Old Pokemon Champion.

The Ketchum Family by Razor_Keyboard
63 parts Ongoing Mature
This is the story of what happens after Ash wins the Masters Tournament. All our heroes attend a celebration in honor of the new Monarch. What will happen when Ash and Serena finally reunite? Where will their paths lead next? How will their relationship change as they get older? Info: I have written this story to be very much like the anime. I try very hard to stay true to the characters and portray how I believe they would change as they grow older and gain life experience. All of my chapters are long and full of description, character development and worldbuilding. If you like fun, well thought-out stories with humor, drama, and action, you should like this work. Rating: PG-13 with moments of strong sexuality. There's no profanity or graphic sex. Any sex scenes are poetically written. Some of the romantic scenes are quite sensual, so be aware. As I said, I try to stay true to the anime and that means keeping 'dark' story elements to a relative minimum. There's plenty of intense Pokemon Action and some scary moments, but nothing that veers into gratuitous violence. As far as 'intimate' stuff goes, there are a few sex scenes but they are not gratuitous. I keep things poetic and beautiful, not smutty. That being said, at times, things will get very steamy and intense. As a general rule, if there's something edgy in a chapter I will put a small warning at the beginning. I'm not here to shock anyone. Additionally, as far as ages go, Ash and Serena's age (and any other characters of comparable age) should be considered to be 18 at the start of this story. A lot of time has passed since Ash started out on his journey and although, for now, he is a child at heart, he is actually an adult. Now that their journeys are ending and relationships are beginning, they will finally start experiencing more of what life has to offer. Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon. This is a work in progress.

Pokemon: Dreams Come True by Darkxtex
61 parts Ongoing
The Sinnoh region holds many tales about the great and beautiful Cynthia, the reigning Champion. She was renowned for being a Dragon Master, and her Dragon-type Pokemon were enough to bring others to their knees. This Champion was known as the greatest trainer in all of Sinnoh and also as one of the greatest in the world. But what about her family? Vali, the son of Cynthia, is fifteen and doesn't have a Pokemon. From ten-year-olds to literal preschoolers, there seems to be no end to the amount of new Pokemon Trainers each day. Ever since that day when Ash Ketchum won against his mother in the World Coronation Series, when she started to show more interest in her duties as a Champion and as a Trainer than her own family, Vali started to dislike Pokemon in general, as they remind him of her. But when a fateful encounter with a Pokemon ends up saving his life, something lingering inside of him awakens and reminds him who he truly is. But is this really enough to bring back the love that he used to have for Pokemon? Vali will soon find himself caught in the center of dangerous activities. He must go through powerful Trainers, girls, dangerous Pokemon, discover the secrets of his past and bloodline, and confront his mother. (This all takes place five years after the master's 8.)

13 parts Complete
Ash has just lost in the Indigo League, due to his Charizard's disobedience. As he and Pikachu are thinking things over by a lake, they are sure in for a nasty surprise. Betrayal. That's what, out of all possible scenarios, Ash never imagined that his own friends and family would betray and even try and kill him. Now though, Ash must rise above this and prove the traitors wrong, starting with redemption. He heads over to the Orange Islands for sanctuary and to start a new journey, a new start was just what he needed, with new friends, new Pokemon, and mysteries surrounding the Pokemon world. But at the end of it all, the true adventure has only just begun... Warning: Foul Language, minor Adult topics, mentions of blood and gore. Not recommended for young children. Disclaimer: I don't own Pokemon. ATTENTION: This story will not be finished. I am instead turning it into a rewrite of the entire Anime in light of Ash leaving the show as a main character. I don't know if I will be posting it here, since Wattpad can be really annoying to use, but I will be posting it on A03 and Fanfiction.Net. Whenever I actually have the time, since I'm a college student with a busy life.
Our Promise, Our Future by JohtoAmour64
90 parts Complete
After winning the Kalos League and keeping their promise, Ash and Serena continue their journey together. From new regions, to new Pokemon, to new battles and new experiences. Whatever lies ahead, they don't know, but they will face it together. This is a sequel to my Our Promise one-shot (which you can read if you'd like for some extra exposition but it's not required). I kept looking over it and I saw more potential in it, but instead of going back to that story, I decided to keep it a one-shot and make the sequel a multi-chapter story. I don't know how many chapters I'll write, but I'll try to make it long enough to be considered a good read. I do know that I don't have an uploading schedule, so new chapters will most likely appear at random. I hope you'll all enjoy my first attempt at a multi-chapter Pokemon story. Fair warning though. This story will have swearing and some mature topics in it, so be prepared for stuff like that. So please enjoy reading Our Promise, Our Future! Lifespan: 12/30/21-10/27/23 1/19/22: 1k reads!!!!

Pokémon: Kanto Summer Camp by NocturnalJay
29 parts Complete
Hello, I'm Nocturnal Jay! I used to also make these stories on a YouTube channel, but I opted to end that and focus on writing without being limited to screencaps. I feel more free with just doing text versions! This story was my first one from my old channel. I started writing this in 2016 and finished in early 2018. It's a nice, comedic, feel-good story with some drama and sadness thrown in there. It'll feature a lot of shippings, most of which are with Satoshi (Ash), but as for which Ash ship wins, you'll have to find out at the end! (No spoiling if you've already seen it on YouTube when it was on there). It's written in mainly script format, but with some shades of prose as well. I prefer script format for several reasons, so please be open-minded. I know it might not look like normal stories, but I promise it's worth the read! It contains about 40 characters, more or less, who attend a summer camp in Kanto. The characters are averagely about 18 or older (yes, pretend that it makes sense for 18-year-olds to be at a summer camp, just pretend!). I tried to keep a lot of realism with this story that I wasn't seeing with other ones. The story is finished, so check it out and leave some (positive) feedback!
