Hey Everyone, with the help of Tevinblair & Jurassicdinodrew, we decided to call the Pokémon Journeys story. The Journey of Ash Ketchum(World Tour Adventures). Also here's something from Tevinblair

Tevinblair: so I'm guessing that everyone has noticed the chapter countdown to the Indigo League AKA The Indigo Plateau Conference Tournament. Well, I had Morpho set it up for everyone to know how close we are to the beginning of the League Tournament so we don't get bombarded with questions about when the Indigo League begins. So do you think that we should do this for all the stories in The Journey of Ash Ketchum series? Let us know ASAP in your reviews.

Princess Festival

The gang were at a place called O-Hina Town where it was throwing a festival.

"Looks like the town has some sort of celebration." Ash said

"Hey guys." A voice called

The gang looked & saw Leaf.

"It's Leaf." Serena said

"Hey guys, I'm happy that you're here." Leaf greeted

When she looked at Togepi, her eyes became hearts

"Oh my gosh, Serena, who is this little cutie pie?" Leaf asked

"This is Togepi, she's the Pokémon who hatched from the egg I was given." Serena said

"What a little sweetheart." Leaf adored

"Togepi" Togepi squealed in happiness

"Leaf, what's going on in this town?" Serena asked

"O-Hina Town is doing a special holiday called the Princess Festival." Leaf said

"Princess Festival? What's that?" Ash asked

"Every year, the Princess Festival salutes females everywhere. It is commemorated by various events, activities, and sales geared towards women. During the Princess Festival, there are drastic discounts at stores and restaurants for women only." Leaf explained

"Wow, sounds like my kind of holiday!" Serena exclaimed with joy

"Eevee!" Eevee beamed

"Looks like this gonna be a long day for us, Ash." Brock sweatdropped

"Don't worry Brock, everything's gonna be fine" Ash assured

The girls went shopping for clothes, jewelry, little dolls, & accessories. Ash had his Golduck, Haunter, & Butterfree use Psychic to carry the packages. While they were eating, they talked about their journeys so far.

"Stop, thieves!" A voice said

They looked & saw a man chasing two pink bipedal-like Pokémon. The two Pokémon had their arms full of food. Ash pulled out his Rotom Phone

Lickitung, the Licking Pokémon, A Normal Type. If you don't want to get licked, stay away from Lickitung. It uses its enormous tongue to investigate its surroundings, leaving an unpleasant smelling saliva that can cause a rash.

The first Lickitung turned & used its long tongue to grab the man's leg & flipped him over causing him to fall on his back. Then it ran away with the other Lickitung

"Let's go after them." Leaf said

The gang found them eating in the outskirts of town.

"Hey, that wasn't very nice of you." Leaf scolded

"Yeah, didn't anyone tell you that stealing is wrong." Serena scolded

The two Lickitung looked at them & went into battle stance.

"Looks like they wanna fight us off." Ash said "Ready Pikachu & Meowth?"

"Pika." Pikachu said in battle stance

"Ready." Meowth said in battle stance

"Wait Ash, Leaf & I can handle them." Serena said holding them back

"Leave it to us." Leaf said "Go Ivysaur!"

Leaf sent out her Ivysaur

"Ivysaur." Ivysaur said

"Ready, Eevee?" Serena said

"Eevee." Eevee said as she jumped off of Serena's shoulder

"Ivysaur, use Razor Leaf." Leaf said. Ivysaur fired multiple green glowing leaves from its bud.

"Eevee, use Swift." Serena said. Eevee's tail glowed yellow & fired multiple yellow stars

Both attacks hit both Lickitung. The first Lickitung arms glowed white & the second Lickitung's hand glowed dark purple & charged at them

"Watch out, they're using Knock Off & Hammer Arm." Brock called out

"Use Iron Tail." Serena said. Eevee's tail glowed white & hit the second Lickitung

"Use Vine Whip." Leaf said. Ivysaur released two vines from its bud, grabbed the first Lickitung's arms with them, & slammed it on the ground.

"Eevee, use Helping Hand." Serena said. Eevee placed her paw on Ivysaur which caused to become surrounded by golden aura

"Ivysaur, use Razor Leaf again." Leaf said. Ivysaur fired Razor Leaf & hit both Lickitung which caused them to become weakened.

"Now, go Poké Ball!" Leaf said as she threw a Poké Ball at the first Lickitung

"Go Heal Ball!" Serena said as she threw a Heal Ball & the second Lickitung

The Poké Ball & Heal Ball hit both Lickitung & got captured

"Awesome, I got a Lickitung!" Leaf cheered

Serena's Lickitung's Heal Ball got transported to the PC

"Attention Princess shopper, in a few minutes, we will be holding the main event of this year's Princess Festival: the Queen of the Princess Festival Contest." A woman announced from the speakers. "The winner will receive a collection of Pokémon Princess Dolls, the winner will also have her picture taken with screen sensation Fiorello Cappuccino."

"What do you say, Serena?" Leaf asked "Should we compete in the contest?"

"Yeah." Serena nodded

At the contest, Ash & Brock watched as it was about to begin. Togepi was on Ash's lap watching the contest.

"Hello, Ladies & Gentleman, welcome to the Queen of the Princess Festival Contest. With me, we have a special guest Fiorella Cappucino." The anouuncer said

"Hello everyone, this is an exciting day." Fiorella said

"It definitely is exciting, the winner must be poised, serene, charming, & graceful. Now let's take a look at our contestants." The announcer said

The curtains opened to reveal the contestants. Serena was wearing a red kimono with white flower designs & had a pink flower in her hair. Leaf was wearing a light blue kimono with white Poké Ball designs.

"Wow, Boss Lady sure is beautiful, right Boss?" Meowth said as he turned to Ash "Boss?"

Ash was awestruck with a blush on his face as he was looking at Serena

"Boss? Yoo-hoo?" Meowth said as he waved his paw in front of his face "Earth to Boss."

"Ash, wake up" Brock said as he snapped his fingers in front of Ash's face

"Wha?" Ash said as he snapped out of it.

"Are you okay?" Brock asked

"Uh Yeah, I was just um..." Ash blushed nervously

"Heh, couldn't keep your eyes off Serena, can you?" Brock teased

"Shut up." Ash mumbled in embarrassment as Brock chuckled

"What a beautiful, gorgeous group we have this year, don't you agree, Fiorella?" The announcer asked

"Yes, they have such exquisite taste in beauty & fashion." Fiorella agreed

"Now, let's show them the prize one of them will be winning: the unique, antique, one-of-a-kind Pokémon Princess Doll Set." The announcer said

The dolls of the Pokémon Princess Doll Set were a Pikachu, Clefairy, Squirtle, Charmander, Bulbasaur, Jynx, Jigglypuff, Chansey, Poliwhirl, & a Slowpoke wearing kimonos.

"Now before we continue, this contest isn't just a beauty contest, it is also a battle competition." The announcer said

"The winner has to be a skilled Pokémon Trainer & the battles will be 4 on 4" Fiorella said

"Well Serena, may the best woman win." Leaf said

"Right." Serena said as she shook hands with her

During the break

"You were beautiful out there, Serena." Ash complimented

"Aw, thank you Ash, you're so sweet." Serena smiled sweetly

"So, which Pokémon are you gonna use?" Brock said

"Well, I'm gonna use Eevee, Jolteon, Gloom, & Vulpix." Serena said

"You're gonna do great, Serena." Ash said

"Thanks, I hope so." Serena said

Serena & Leaf defeated their opponents one by one until they were facing each other in the finals.

"This is it, Folks, We are now down to the final match between Leaf from Pallet Town & Serena from Vaniville Town." the announcer said "Who will be the victor & who will receive the title of Queen of the Princess Festival?"

"Go Ivysaur!" Leaf said as she sent out her Ivysaur

"Ivysaur." Ivysaur said

"Go Vulpix!" Serena said

"Vul." Vulpix said

"Battle begin!" The referee said

Serena vs Leaf

"Ivysaur, use Take Down." Leaf said. Ivysaur became surrounded by a golden force field & charged at Vulpix

"Vulpix, use Flame Charge." Serena said. Vulpix became surrounded by red flames & charged at Ivysaur. Both Pokémon clashed into each other causing an explosion

"Use Seed Bomb." Leaf said. Ivysaur fired multiple glowing green explosive seeds from its bud & hit Vulpix

"Use Will-O-Wisp." Serena said. Vulpix fired a pink, light blue, & dark blue fireball from her mouth & hit Ivysaur which caused to become burned.

"Ivysaur, Sleep Powder." Leaf said. Ivysaur released a blanket of light green spores from its bud

"Use Flamethrower." Serena said. Vulpix shot fire from her mouth which blew away the Sleep Powder & hit Ivysaur

"Now, Hex."

"Vul" Vulpix said as her eyes glowed purple & red, then he created a sphere of black energy with a red eye in the middle. The eye released multiple dark blue rings of energy & hit Ivysaur causing it to faint.

"Ivysaur is unable to battle, Vulpix wins." The referee declared

"Ivysaur return." Leaf said as she returned Ivysaur "Go Seel!"

Leaf sent out a white seal pup-like Pokémon with a small horn on its forehead

"Seel" Seel said as Ash pulled out his Rotom Phone

Seel, the Sea Lion Pokémon, a Water Type. Seel thrive in cold water thanks to a thick layer of blubber, but swimming in warm seas can tire them out.

"Vulpix, use Will-O-Wisp." Serena said as Vulpix fired Will-O-Wisp

"Seel, use Aqua Ring." Leaf said

"Seel!" Seel said as multiple rings of water surrounded its body & protected itself from the attack

"Now, use Brine."

Seel fired a powerful stream of water & hit Vulpix which caused her to faint

"Vulpix is unable to battle, Seel wins." The referee said

"Vulpix return." Serena said as she returned Vulpix "Go Jolteon!"

Serena sent out her Jolteon

"Jolt!" Jolteon barked

"Seel use Ice Shard." Leaf said. Seel becomes outlined in light blue, multiple shards of ice appear around it, & then fires them at Jolteon

"Use Pin Missile." Serena said. Jolteon's collar glowed white, fires white orbs trailing green streams of light which & collided with Ice Shard.

"Now, use Thunder Fang." Serena said. Jolteon opened his mouth, created yellow teeth-like aura with sparks of electricity & bit down Seel.

"Use Icy Wind." Leaf said. Seel's horn glows white & releases a gust of wind with light blue sparkle in it & hits Jolteon

"Use Thunderbolt." Serena said

"Jolteooooon!" Jolteon said as he fired a bolt of yellow electricity & hit Sell which caused it to faint

"Seel is unable to battle, Jolteon wins." The referee declared

"Seel return." Leaf said as she returned Seel "Go Jigglypuff!"

Leaf sent out a Jigglypuff

"Jigglypuff." Jigglypuff said

"Use Quick Attack." Serena said. Jolteon became surrounded by light blue aura & tackled Jigglypuff at quick speed, but suddenly his eyes became heart

"Huh?" Serena said confusingly

"Looks like Jolteon has become infatuated with Jigglypuff." The announcer said

"That's because Jigglypuff's ability is Cute Charm. When a Pokémon with this Ability is hit by a move that makes contact, the opponent will become infatuated if it is of the opposite gender to the Pokémon with this Ability." Fiorella said

"That means Leaf's Jigglypuff is female." Ash said

"Jigglypuff, use Wake-Up Slap." Leaf said. Jigglypuff hands glow red & slapped Jolteon multiple times

"Now, Hyper Voice."

Jiggly PUUUUUUFF!" Jigglypuff screamed as she released blue waves of energy from her mouth & hit Jolteon which caused him to faint

"Jolteon is unable to battle, Jigglypuff wins." The referee declared

"Jolteon return." Serena said as she returned Jolteon "Go Gloom!"

Serena sent out her Gloom

"Gloom." Gloom said

"It's a good thing Serena's Gloom is female." Brock said

"Jigglypuff, use Sing." Leaf said

"Jigglypuff Jiggly." Jigglypuff sang as multicolored music notes came out of her mouth & Gloom fell asleep. Serena just smiled

"Gloom, use Sleep Talk." Serena said. Gloom fired a thick stream of purple liquid from her mouth & hit Jigglypuff which caused her to become poisoned.

"Oh no!" Leaf gasped

"Looks like the tables have been turned thanks to Gloom's Toxic via Sleep Talk." The Announcer said

"Indeed, Sleep Talk is a very useful move." Fiorella agreed

"Use Wake-Up Slap." Leaf said as Jigglypuff charged at Gloom with Wake-Up Slap

"Use Sleep Talk again." Serena said. Gloom fired multiple dark purple blobs of poison & hit Jigglypuff which caused her to faint.

"Jigglypuff is unable to battle, Gloom wins." The referee declared as Gloom woke up

"& Gloom is down & out by Venoshock." The announcer said

"Jigglypuff return." Leaf said as she returned Jigglypuff "Go Lickitung!"

Leaf sent out her newly caught Lickitung

"Licki." Lickitung said

"Use Lick." Leaf said. Lickitung licked Gloom which caused her to faint.

"Gloom is unable to battle, Lickitung wins." The referee declared

"Gloom return." Serena said as she returned Gloom "Eevee, you're up next."

"Eevee." Eevee said as she entered the battlefield

"Lickitung use Lick again." Leaf said. Lickitung licked Eevee, but Eevee just shook it off.

"What?" Leaf said confusingly

"Eevee doesn't seem fazed by Lick." The announcer said

"That's because Lick is a Ghost Type move, & Eevee is a Normal Type. Ghost Type moves don't affect Normal Type Pokémon." Fiorella said

"Oh no, I forgot!" Leaf exclaimed in realization

"Eevee, use Take Down." Eevee became surrounded by a golden force field & tackle Lickitung

"TUUUUUNG!" Lickitung raged as he hit Eevee with Hammer Arm

"Eevee!" Serena cried

"Lickitung, I didn't tell you to use Hammer Arm." Leaf said

"Use Iron Tail." Serena said as Eevee charged at Lickitung with Iron Tail

"Dodge it." Leaf said, but Lickitung grabbed Eevee with its tongue & slammed her on the ground

"I told you to dodge, Lickitung. What's wrong with you?" Leaf scolded

"Eevee, are you okay?" Serena asked worriedly as Eevee was straining to get up

"TUUUNG!" Lickitung yelled

"Lickitung, don't do it! Stop!" Leaf cried

Lickitung charged at Eevee as she slowly got up

"Don't give up, Eevee!" Serena cried as Eevee glared with determination

"VEEEEEEE!" Eevee yelled as burst of golden energy which hit Lickitung & caused to stumble back

"What's this?" The announcer said curiously

"Oh my." Fiorella said

"What's going on, Brock?" Ash asked

"I don't know, but I think Eevee has learned a new move" Brock said

Eevee was glowing a gold color with light yellow sparkle around her.

"Eevee." Serena said in awe as she pulled out her Rotom Phone

Your Eevee has learned Veevee Volley, The more Eevee loves its Trainer, the greater the move's power.

Eevee turned to Serena

"Vee!" Eevee smiled in determination

"Right, let's win this Eevee. Use Veevee Volley!" Serena said.

Eevee charged at Lickitung like a meteor & hit it which caused an explosion. When the smoke cleared, Lickitung had fainted.

"Lickitung is unable to battle, Eevee wins." The referee declared "So the winner of the contest goes to Serena."

"Awesome, we did it, Eevee!" Serena said as she hugged Eevee

"Eevee!" Eevee cheered

"Outstanding! Serena has become the Queen of the Princess Festival!" The announcer exclaimed

"Lickitung return." Leaf said as she returned Lickitung "Congratulations Serena."

"Thank you, you were great too." Serena said

"That was amazing, Serena." Ash said amazingly

"It was spectacular!" Meowth cheered

"Pikachu." Pikachu complimented Eevee

"Eevee." Eevee blushed

"That was an exceptional battle, Serena." Fiorella said as he came up to her "Your bond with your Eevee caused her to learn that move. Congratulations."

"Thank you, Mr. Cappuccino." Serena said

Later on, Serena sent her doll set back home to Vaniville Town in Kalos

"It was great seeing you guys again." Leaf said

"You too, & we hope you make good progress with your Lickitung." Serena said

"I hope so too." Leaf said

After they bid farewell to Leaf, the gang pressed on to Cinnabar Island with Eevee learning a new move Veevee Volley as the journey continues.
