Ash's POV

Tournament Day 1...

Finally, the day we're waiting for, the day the we will show how Alola is different from the other regions. Everyone was now getting ready, Lillie was brushing her Pokemons, which is kind of, uhh, weird, but she said that brushing them can make them confident, especially Snowy, sooo...

Everyone were now heading to the battle arena, trainers are also entering the arena, which is so many, I'm surprised that this tournament had these many people, probably 100,000 people watching, or if possible, more.

We are now at the center of the battlefield, every trainers participating the tournament are going to meet their opponents there, a wide screen was displayed at the side, so that we can know our opponents. Then, a short man showed up, and announced something, probably it's Mr. Goodshow.

Mr. Goodshow : Trainers! Thank you for participating the tournament! I'm very happy that we have so many participants today, but, only one of you can be announced as Champion, so, do your best, and may the Alpha Pokemon be with you.

Even them don't know the name of this Alpha Pokemon, I sighed and then looked at the list on the screen, Lillie and the others was beside me, doing what I was doing, the cards, containing put pictures, we're now shuffled, after done shuffling, my eyes widened in shock and surprise. It's a familiar face at the school before!

Me : No way...

Lillie : Who's your opponent Ash?

Me : I-Its May...

Kiawe : Who is she?

Me : One of my...'friends'

Mallow : Whoever it is, I'm sure you'll do great!

Me : Thanks Mallow, I appreciate it.

After the shuffling, Mr. Goodshow then announced the rules of the tournament.

Mr. Goodshow : So, were done with the match ups, let me announce the rules of this tournament, but first, let's greet our champions on Kanto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova, and Kalos...Lance, Steven, Cynthia, Alder and Diantha!

The crowd burst out cheering and yelling their names, so the champions are here to watch the tournament too, I wonder why are they needed.

Mr. Goodshow : They are here to watch the exciting tournaments until the end of it, if the Champion of this tournament is finally decided, then, he or she will have the honor of battling one of them!

The around us were shocked at the announcement, then I can feel the excitement on them, and the gang too, Kiawe was now on fire, fire background, fiery eyes, it feels like Groudon just used it's magma blades coming out from the ground,(If you know, please tell me, I forgot the name of the move, I'm sure it starts with P) or the Wela Volcano just erupted seeing him this excited.

Mr. Goodshow : Now for the rules, starting matches can only have 1 vs. 1 battles, there are 384 trainers in all, if these 192 trainers won their battles, then they can access to the 2 vs. 2 battles, the remaining 96 trainers can gain access of the 3 vs. 3 battles, if 48 of them won their matches, then they are now at the semi-finals, which is a 6 vs. 6 battles, so does the finals, then these 24 is still at the semi-finals, then 12 of the trainers who won will still, at the semi-finals, but these final 6, will be at the finals, then these 3 will have to battle themselves, so a triangle battle will be held, also in a special battlefield, which is of course, be shown at the finals.(For Arceus' sake, I did math, I got a headache😭😭)

Never heard of a triangle battle before, but that kinda sounds fun, I hope the others can get into the semi-finals, well, the final semi-finals, and I do hope I'll be in the finals too. But wow, 384 trainers!(About the calculations, please do tell me about it, I really suck at math...)That many! I'm now wondering how they will operate this.

Mr. Goodshow : And as I said, the one who will win this tournament, will have the honor of battling one of these champions here!

The crowd once again yelled, screamed, and cheered, they were really excited at the battle now, and us too, and we can't forget to mention, the one who made heat around here, Kiawe, like, seriously, he sounds like a Wela Volcano erupting.

Mr. Goodshow : And now, we're done with the rules, and now, enjoy the tournament!

The other trainers went back to the original place, I looked at the monitor to know the others' opponents, but it looks like I'm the only one battling a familiar face. Then I searched for my 'friends' faces, I also saw their faces with other trainer's faces, I can't wait for the time to come that I'll battle them, and I'll show them what I can do.

...(Sorry for the timeskip!!)

All of them are now done with their opponents, Lillie, Lana, Mallow, Sophocles, and Kiawe successfully defeated their opponents, which is kinda easy for them, them the time has come, the confrontation of one of my 'friends', oh I can't wait to beat them, but I really want to beat Gary or the others, but time will come, I know that they can handle their opponents, they can handle it through the semi-finals.

Lillie : Good luck! You'll need it! Oh, and this too!

Lillie gave me a peck on the cheek, causing for me to...what's that--- I remembered! Blush! Phew, thankfully, no one was here, and the worst, Mallow, if she saw this, there's no tomorrow, I swear. I smiled in reply and then waved at her goodbye, before entering the battlefield, then I can see May already there.

Referee : This is a match between Satoshi and May!

At Gary's place...

Gary : There he is.

Serena : I wonder how will May do this, I'm kinda feeling nervous, this is the first match and she will just lose to him?

Paul : Hey, we still don't know, trust her, she's skilled.

Dawn : Yep, don't worry about it!

Brock : But we saw his Gallade, and you saw the others from Alola too right? They just defeated them easily, they didn't even drop a sweat.

Misty : Brock, just watch, we will know the outcome once this battle will be finished.

Dawn : But that Lillie girl, her Vulpix is white? Why is that? And it's really beautiful!

Gary : And I'm surprised! It can use Ice-Type moves! The Vulpix I know uses Fire-Type moves! Now I'm really taking a liking with her!

Trip : Snap out with it Oak Tree.

Gary : What did you call me?!

Trip : Oak Tree.

Gary : You!

Paul : Hey, stop it, focus on the battle geez.

Serena : Hey guys, notice those bracelets on his wrists?

Gary : Oh that? That are just normal bracelets, or watches.

Serena : No, it kinda looks different.

Paul : You're right, I wonder what is it for.

Trip : Let's just wait and see.

At Ash's place...

May : I saw you're battle with my friends yesterday, and I can't lose to you no matter what.

Well, determination was in her, I kinda pity her a bit, she's not sometimes there when the others bully me, but still, just sometimes, so that means she still bully me, this is my revenge for her, I'll make sure I'm gonna defeat her in this very first match.

Referee : Trainers, ready your Pokemon!

May : Blaziken, let's go!

May tosses a pokeball, revealing the fire-type starter, Blaziken, Blaziken cried and then went into battle stance, I can notice a pendant on Blaziken's chest, so im assuming May got the mega stone for Blaziken, a Blazikenite.

Announcer : What a strong looking Blaziken! What will trainer Satoshi use?

I thought a while for a second, then finally decided my Pokemon, if I showed up Gallade from before, now how about this!

Me : Gardevoir, I choose you!

I tossed Gardevoir's pokeball, revealing herself once she got out from it, the crowd was in silence for a while, of course, it's shiny.

Announcer : A-A-AMAZING! What a sight! This trainer has a Shiny Gardevoir! This is amazing!

At Gary's place...

Everyone : ......WHAT?!

Gary : Before was a Shiny Gallade...

Misty : Now a Shiny Gardevoir?!

Brock : How does this guy get these shinies?!

Dawn : No way!

Misty : Hey! Remember? That Lillie girl also have a Shiny Gardevoir?

Gary : Is Alola really that plenty of shinies?!

Paul : I think Nurse Joy is wrong about this.

Trip : But I think she's also right.

Misty : If she's right, how did they get those shinies?

Serena : Oh no, what will May do?

Trip : May got this.

Paul : Yeah, believe her.

Dawn : I hope so.

Gary : If May can't defeat this guy, then I'll make sure I'll be the one to defeat him!

At Clemont's place...

Bonnie : Brother! Come quick!

Clemont : Yeah yeah, I'm coming......WHAT?!

Bonnie : You seeing this brother?!

Clemont : No way! A Shiny Gardevoir?!

Bonnie : Yeah! He's amazing right?

Clemont : Before was a Shiny Gallade, now a Shiny Gardevoir! How many shinies he owns anyway?!

Bonnie : Shh brother! I'm watching the battle!

At the Champions' place...

Steven : Hey Diantha, check this out.

Diantha : What is i--- Woah!

Alder : This kid is mysterious.

Steven : Yeah, hiding himself in that black cloak.

Lance : This guy is really mysterious and strong-looking.

Steven : Notice those bracelets on his wrists? I can feel that one of them is a Mega Ring, I wonder what's with that other one.

Cynthia : My my, I just arrived here and now I'm watching an interesting battle.

Steven : We should take an eye on him, maybe this guy will---

Alder : Of course this kid will! Look at that Shiny Gardevoir! It's more amazing than Diantha's Gardevoir!

Diantha : Hey! I'm here you know!

Alder : I know.

Diantha : Why you!

Steven : Jeez, stop.

At Ash's place...

I smirked under my mask, I can clearly see May's fear plastered on her face, how I love seeing them like this, this is for what they have done to me.

Referee : B-Battle begin!

May : Blaziken, start off with Blaze Kick!

Blaziken then started the battle by charging to Gardevoir, then Blaziken jumped, and making it's foot being in fire, then attempting to use Blaze Kick on Gardevoir, I nodded at Gardevoir, then she easily dodged the attacks, Blaziken did Blaze Kicks repeatedly, but Gardevoir is always avoiding it's attack.

May's eyes widened, the whole crowd was filled with silence, I think May realized that I didn't commanded Gardevoir, but sadly, no. I grinned at their reactions, this is so fun to watch, maybe I can do this forever

Announcer : I can't believe this! Satoshi was communicating to Gardevoir with just eye contact! Just like Diantha's Gardevoir!

At the Champions' place...

Lance : Hear that Diantha?

Diantha : Just, no way! How does this guy master it?! I thought me and Gardevoir were the only ones who can do that!

Alder : Anything is possible Diantha, who knows, maybe this kid can do more than this.

Cynthia : Alder's right, anyways, let's just continue watching the battle.

At Ash's place...

May stood there in fear, sweats were now dropping from her cheeks, she can't even command Blaziken with it's next move.

I nodded again at Gardevoir, then she nodded back, then suddenly, she sank onto the shadows, then appeared behind Blaziken, then slapped Blaziken, hard.

Announcer : Now way! Gardevoir has Shadow Sneak! That's a rare Gardevoir he got there!

At Gary's place...

Everyone : SHADOW SNEAK TOO?!

Misty : His Gardevoir can use that move too!

Serena : No way!

Gary : What's wrong with that Gardevoir?!

Dawn : May, hang on!

Trip : You've gotta move!

Paul : I can't believe May was just standing there.

Brock : She can't do this...

Dawn : It's her first match and she even face off that guy?

Paul : Whatever, I'm gonna beat that guy.

Gary : Hey! That'd be me!

Paul : No, me!

Gary : Me!

Misty : Will you guys stop?!

Trip : Geez, just focus on the battle, will you?!

At the Champions' place...

Lance : You see that Diantha?

Alder : The kid just made Gardevoir move, still in eye contact.

Diantha : I can communicate with Gardevoir through eye contact so that she can dodge an attack, I'm surprised that this guy can communicate eye contact to make a move, and I'm really surprised that his Gardevoir can learn Shadow Sneak! My Gardevoir can't learn that move!

Cynthia : My, this guy is full of surprises.

At Ash's place...

May : Argh! Blaziken! Mega Evolve!

May let Blaziken activate it's mega evolution, them Blaziken undergo mega evolution, red bandage-like strings(Sorry! Dunno how to describe!😅😅)and addition of red streaks, and a large crest on his head. The light died down and revealed a mega evolved Blaziken.

Announcer : Amazing! May just did Mega Evolution!

At Gary's place...

Gary : Way to go May!

Misty : Now, get him!

Trip : May can do this.

Paul : Yeah, she can do this, with Blaziken's mega evolution.

At the Champions' place...

Steven : What an amazing sight! A trainer with a Blaziken with a Blazikenite!

Alder : Just because Blaziken can mega evolve, doesn't mean you can be awestruck at it, who knows, maybe the guy hides something.

Cynthia : Well, the answers will be revealed in this battle.

At Ash's place..

So she really mega evolved it, well, as what they say, two can play a game, I looked at my right wrist, where the mega ring was in, the Gardevoirite was shining, it is really excited to make Gardevoir mega evolve, I showed them my right wrist, containing the Gardevoirite.

Announcer : Is it?----

Me : Yes it is, Gardevoir, mega evolve!

To be continued...

(A/N) Sorry for the cliffhanger XD, I want to make a part 2 of this, so hopefully you understand, but don't worry, maybe I can post the part 2 later!
