[Serena POV]

Days have passed since I last saw Ash. More than a week. The attack in Kanto and Johto has given a big impact on other regions. People hardly come out of their houses. Schools and offices have been closed for the safety of the citizens. We haven't got any news from Kanto and Johto. The communication has been completely cut off from the other regions.

Most of my time is spent in the living room waiting for Ash to come back home. I don't have much to do since the schools are closed and we don't have homeworks. I just sit at the couch and watch the TV for any news on the regions under attack. I just sit there with my hands clasped together praying for the well being of Ash.

Leaf too isn't doing much better these days. She misses her brother dearly. She doesn't go out and pay with the Pokémons or do any kind of activities, just sitting by the window of her room and staring at the sky or laying anywhere she finds comfortable and thinking deep, probably about Ash.

Life isn't going any good these days. I just hope that Ash returns home safe, if not at least an alive. No, what am I thinking? Ash has to stay safe at all cost. I can't live one more day without him. I miss him too much.

Right now I'm sitting on the couch in the living room as usual and passing my time on my phone. Leaf is laying beside me in a sulked position. It's almost evening, the sun has started to set. We remained there until late night. Emma gave us our dinner then we went to bed.

As I was in the room, I walked to Ash's table and ran my hand over his possessions kept there. My eyes once again settled at a certain worn out snap book. It was the same diary that caught my attention ever so often. I was missing Ash so much that I decided to have a look at his memories. Just too keep my mind off this sadness. I carefully picked the little booklet from the table and ran my fingers across it's cover. It had words engraved on it. My precious memories. Slowly and carefully I turned open the front page.

Dear diary,

Let me first introduce myself to you, I am Ash Ketchum and I'm 10 years old. Today is my big day as today I'll be starting my journey to become a Pokemon Master. I received my first Pokemon from Professor Oak. And unfortunately it was a Pikachu. I know it sounds weird because normally you get to choose from Charmander, Squirtle or Bulbasaur but I kinda slept more and got late for my meeting. Other Pokemons were already taken by other trainers. However he had another Pokemon, and that's how I got Pikachu. Although he doesn't really obeys my commands, but that's not a problem. I'll befriend him and train him to become stronger and then I'll win my first goal to become a Pokemon Master, The Indigo League.

Dear diary,

It's been seven days since I started my journey. I have caught a bunch of Pokemons. However, none of them are battle fit. Pikachu is still as stubborn, he doesn't listen to me, doesn't go into his pokeball and always attacks me using thunder bolt. I've caught a Charmander, a Squirtle and a Pidgeotto. Charmander is really weak, he was a sick Pokemon when I caught him. His attacks are not strong enough to battle any Pokemon. Squirtle is very mischievous, he is always playing pranks on me and other travellers. Pidgeotto is an angry bird, always attacking me and other Pokemon and people when he gets irritated. Nothing is going on as I planned. I had decided to participate in the Indigo League that is held in October. But I don't think I can collect all the gym badges till then.

Dear diary,

As you know that my journey isn't going as I planned. My Pokemons aren't listening to me. But today's event changed everything. My Pokemons understood the importance of a trainer. What happened today was, well Squirtle being Squirtle, he disturbed a flock of Spearows. They started attacking us and my Pokemons were not strong enough to take them so I returned them to their pokeballs, but Pikachu still didn't go in. I picked him up and started running, he of course didn't like being in my arms. The Spearows were gaining near us. That was when I tripped on a stone and fell. The Spearows were coming closer, I looked back at Pikachu who was lying near me. He was too injured to battle so I got up and stood in front of him firmly. I shouted at them that if they wanted to hurt my Pokemons then they have to first finish me. The Spearows got ready to attack me, I braced myself for it but instead I felt some weight in my right shoulder. I opened my eyes and saw Pikachu leaping above me and he used a huge thunderbolt and defeated all the Spearows. He was too exhausted I took them to Pokemon centre and got them healed and now all of them are really good to me. I'm really happy today.

______________

If so that's what happened, well it was for the best. I read more of his diary and found out how he trained him Pokemons and what new Pokemon he caught. He even changed his plan, he decided that first he would capture as many Pokemons and train them then he would enter all the Leagues.

He trained his Pokemons well and many of them Evolved too, his Charmander evolved to a strong Charizard, Squirtle Evolved into Wartortle, Pidgeotto evolved into Pidgeot. He had a grovyle, Torterra, Riolu, Monfernape, Froakie, and many more.

I kept on reading his adventures, the first competition he entered was the Orange league. He had collected all the badges and he was going to battle Drake, the champion of Orange league.

Dear diary,

I am really happy today, I finally won my first league. Although it wasn't much popular around the world but it's better than nothing. Drake was a strong trainer, especially his Dragonite but I defeated him with my Charizard and Pikachu. All of my Pokemons are really happy in my victory, I too gave them a huge treat for their hard work. Now my goal is to enter all the Leagues and take them down one by one, and I'm sure I can do this with the help of my Pokemons and my training.

Dear diary,

Sorry for not updating much but you know I was busy in my Silver conference, The Johto league and of course I won it. It was hard all the trainers had trained well for it but if guess I was the best of them. I told  my parents about it and they were happy for me. My dad said that he was proud of me and gifted me a bracelet, it wasn't any ordinary bracelet it was fitted with a special stone, AKA the key stone. He said he that when I would meet him next he will give me the Mega stone for one of my Pokemon. I'm really excited to have a mega evolving Pokemon in my arsenal. My next league would be the Lily of valley conference.

Oh and one more thing my frogadier evolved into a Greninja during my final battle.

Dear diary,
As you must be knowing I was busy in my league, the Sinnoh league of course. It was one of the toughest leagues I battled. And for the first time ever I battle a MEGA Pokemon. It was a trainer named Sawyer's Sceptile. A strong one though but I defeated him using my Infernape. Yup my Pokemons have evolved much. My strongest Team of six is; Pikachu, Charizard, Sceptile, Infernape, Greninja and Snorlax. You must be confused with Snorlax right? But I'm telling you they aren't very lazy when they are angry or more like... hungry. Haha, but he's tough as hell. Anyways my next league would be in Unova region, but there's a big problem, the Indigo League would be starting during the semifinals of the Vertress Conference and I don't want to miss any of them. I don't know what to do. Right now I'm going to be busy thinking over this dilemma. Until then good luck to me.

Dear diary,
Today is the first time I updated my diary during the semifinals of the league, but it's worth it. Remember my dilemma of Vertress conference and Indigo League. It got even worse, both my matches were on the same day and the regions are far apart. But I also got a solution for this. I found a pidgeotite for my Pidgeot and because of that his speed had went up gradually. He can now fly across two regions in just 2 hrs. So the distance between Unova and Kanto is just 2.5 hrs instead of 6 hrs, which is through air plane. I just needed a permission certificate from the international police for the transport. My dad got it for me because if his reputation as a former regional champion. Now the last problem if this news was the my presence, since I cannot be in both places at the same time. I needed to get the permission for my absence in one of the matches. According to the league rules the trainer must be present on his debut matches so I cannot be absent on the Indigo League, so I requested the Vertress conference officials to allow me for my absence. They allowed me but gave a condition that I must be present during the second half of the match. Since I would be able to reach there till then I accepted the deal.

Good bye now, I'll be updating after my matches.

Dear diary,
My debut match in the Indigo League was easy, I mean really easy. Or I just made it one. There was a technical difficulty before the match so it didn't start at it's expected time. I was getting nervous by each second because I had to reach Unova before the second half started. As soon as the match started I called out Pikachu and you know what would have happened since PIKACHU is the strongest in my team. He finished the opponents Pokemons in single hits. Right after the match I called Pidgeot and mega evolved him and flew off to Unova. It was one of the most nervous travel. When I reached the stadium the announcer was making a countdown. I had left Greninja and Charizard for the battle in the league until my arrival. Apparently the second half had started without my presence and both my Pokemons be were fainted. They were waiting for me to bring out my third Pokemon. I reached there and sent Pikachu eve….
