Pokémon: Shadowed Affection

After claiming the title of World Champion, Ash Ketchum expects his next adventure to be one of celebration - not heartbreak. When his childhood friend Serena is kidnapped and twisted into a weapon by Team Rocket's cruel experiments, Ash is thrust into a fight unlike any he's faced before. This isn't just about winning battles; it's about saving someone he loves from the darkness consuming her.

With Brock, Misty, Pikachu, and unexpected allies at his side, Ash charges into enemy territory, battling shadow-corrupted Pokémon and the ruthless Giovanni. But as Serena's true self fights to break free, Ash must risk everything - his title, his safety, even his own heart - to pull her back from the brink. Love, loyalty, and unshakable resolve will decide if the light can overcome the shadows... or if Serena will be lost forever.
