-Stadium Reception-

"Well, look here, a trainer who lost 6 leagues in a row, is now the world's champion and Pokémon Master. How've you been?" Paul stated, extending his hand to Ash.

Ash shook it.

"Great. With some of my friends betraying me, having to move to another region, changing my name, and, well, life's been great." Ash stated. Nobody knew if he was being sarcastic or not.

"Oh, I heard about the betrayal thing. How've you been holding up?"

"Well, the bright side is... I have friends who would stick by my side no matter what, and a younger brother. So... if you look at the pros, life's been amazing!" Ash said, smiling.

"A little brother? Since when do you have a little brother?" Paul asked, confused.

"Since the betrayal. Max, May's 'former' brother, left his family and asked my mother, Delia to adopt him, because he didn't want to live with a monster anymore. And she agreed." Ash replied.

"Okaaay... anyway, what are you doing in Alola? Besides being invited to the tournament."

"We live in Alola. Our house is on top of a hill, here in Melemele island."

"Wait, that huge mansion on the hill belongs to you?!" Paul asked.

"To me, my family and Pokémon. All of us live there. It wasn't that hard to build it, considering we all made it together." Ash said.

At that moment, Paul went blank. Who could build a mansion by themselves? Much less a house.

"That's..." he felt light-headed, "a bit unbelievable.

"Yeah. But, considering how many Pokémon we had, it was deemed possible," Ash smiled, rubbing his finger under his nose.

"Sorry, I have my battle soon. I gotta go." Alain said, walking away with Aria. Mairin, Trevor, Sawyer and Lillie tagged along.

-A half hour later-

Paul was at a Café with a familiar Kalosian blunette: Miette.

"Let's head back to the stadium. I heard the 6th Frontier Brain, Touya, will be having his battle soon." Paul nodded.

They headed to the Moltres battlefield. That's where Alain and Calem's battle is. When they arrived, they looked for Ash's gang.

"There they are." Miette said pointing towards the 5th and 6th row of seats. They took a seat with them.

"Hey, Paul." Ash greeted. "Wait, Miette?"

She waved. "Heya, Ash."

Before any conversation could be made, the referee spoke.

"The match between the Kalos League champion, Calem and the 6th frontier brain, Al-Touya is about to commence." He said, with a slip of the tongue. "This is a 3 on 3 battle, with no time limit. Substitutions are not allowed. Trainers, bring out your first Pokemon!"

"Scizor, battle ready!"

"Hawlucha, you're up!"

"Battle...BEGIN!"

"Scizor, metal claw!" Alain commanded first.

Scizor's claw started to glow white. He charged at Hawlucha.

"Hawlucha, dodge!" Calem ordered.

Hawlucha barely, but successfully dodged metal claw.

"Hawlucha, use high jump kick!"

Hawlucha jumped high up, and used high jump kick.

"Dodge!"

Scizor obeyed..

"Finish this with night slash!"

"Dodge it!"

But Hawlucha wasn't quick enough. So he got hit with Scizor's night slash.

"Hawlucha is unable to battle! The winner is Scizor! Bring out your next Pokémon!"

"Thanks, Hawlucha. Return!" Calem returned Hawlucha. "Lucario! Your turn!"

The bipedal aura dog Pokémon appeared from it's Pokéball.

"Lucario, close combat!"

Lucario tried to land a hit on Scizor, but it just kept dodging Lucario's attacks.

"Scizor, Steel wing!"

Scizor's wings glowed white, and he charged towards Lucario.

"Lucario, counter with bone rush!"

Lucario summoned a blue long bone. And he countered Steel wing. An explosion took place on the battlefield. Before the dust cleared, Calem gave an order.

"Quick, before the dust clears! Aura sphere."

Alain couldn't see where Lucario was, so when he saw a blue orb of aura, it was too late. The aura sphere landed a direct hit on Scizor, when the dust finally cleared, Scizor had swirls in it's eyes.

"Scizor is unable to battle! The winner is Lucario! Send out your next Pokémon!"

-In the stands-

Ash smiled when Scizor fainted. Paul noticed this and asked:

"Why are you happy that Scizor lost? Isn't Alain 1 of your friends?" Paul asked, confused.

Ash leaned back on his seat and crossed his arms. "Alain gave the victory to Calem. Scizor didn't have an advantage, but Alain has trained him for when the opponent has the advantage."

They turned back to the battle.

-The Battlefield-

"You're strong Calem. Can't refuse that."

"You too. But let's see who's gonna win this match."

Alain smiled. "Charizard! Let's go."

The large orange dragon Pokémon appeared from it's Pokéball, it was larger than a normal Charizard, and gave a battle cry. The stadium shook a little, yet a lot. It gave fear to a few people's faces, while others' excitement.

"Charizard, blast burn!"

Calem and Lucario were too distracted on how large Charizard was, that they didn't here Alain give his order. And so, Lucario got hit directly by Blast burn. He fainted, with a lot of burn marks.

"Lucario is unable to battle! The winner is Charizard! Send out your next Pokémon!"

Calem finally broke out of his trance and returned Lucario, whispering a little 'thanks'.
Then, brought out his last Pokémon: A Charizard.

"A BATTLE BETWEEN A CHARIZARD AND A CHARIZARD! THIS BATTLE SURE IS HEATING UP!" The king of exclamations, Antony exclaimed.

"Wow, this guy really likes screaming doesn't he?" Miette stated, annoyed.

"Charizard, flamethrower!"

Calem's Charizard used flamethrower on Alain's. But it didn't do much damaged. Then Alain's Charizard used dragon claw, Calem's countered with dragon claw as well. And it went back and forth for approximately 10 minutes. Then, they gave their last command:

"Charizard! Blast burn! Full power!"

Both Charizards, with all the energy they have left, charged a blast burn, and 3 seconds later... released it. An explosion took place, and dust was scattered through the battlefield. A minute or two later, they heard a 'thud', indicating 1 of the Charizards fell. Everyone eagerly waited for the results. When the dust cleared...

"Calem's Charizard is unable to battle! The winner in Touya's Charizard! Therefore, the victory goes to Touya and his Charizard!" The referee declared.

The crowd went wild! Although, Calem lost, he had a smile on his face. Both trainers returned their Pokémon, and walked to the centre of the battlefield.

"Good battle." Calem said, smiling.

"Agreed."

"It was an honor to battle the strongest of the frontier brains."

"And it was an honor to battle the Kalos League Champion."

Both trainers smiled.

-In an Unknown location-

"They're more stronger than we thought."A man with brown hair said in a deep voice.

"What do we do now?" A man with orange hair and an orange beard asked.

They were watching the tournament on Television.

"Yes, do we cancel the plans? Or go through with it?" A woman with blonde hair asked.

"We're definitely gonna go through with it." Another man with faded blue hair declared. "They've troubled us enough!"

The others nodded in agreement.
