This here is part 2 of the fifth arc of a fanfiction of my own version of the Pokémon anime, called Ash's Pokémon Journey, where Ash continues his journey through the Sinnoh region before competing the Sinnoh Pokémon league, I hope you'll all like this. [Note: Please don't leave any mean or dirty comments about this story, other than that, please enjoy.]

The final Team Galactic battle.
After earning his seventh Sinnoh gym badge, and stopping Hunter J from capturing Regigigas, Ash heads off to the next city that has the last Sinnoh gym leader. While on the way, Chimchar evolved into Monferno, and Ash pulls out his Pokédex to find out more. Pokédex: [Monferno is the evolved form of Chimchar, and it controls the flame on it's tail to keep it's opponents at an ideal distance while battling.] in the middle of the night, Ash, Dawn and Brock have the same dream about three legendary Pokémon, called Azelf, Mesprit and Uxie, who were calling them for help. Once they woke up, they were worried and puzzled. Ash: “Who were those Pokémon…” Dawn: “The legendary lake guardians of Sinnoh… Azelf, Mesprit and Uxie… I don't know why… but I think they were trying to call us for help…” Brock: “I think you're right…” Ash: “But help them with what?” Dawn: “That I don't know… I wished I did…” Pikachu: [Either way… something tells me that whatever they're calling you for… it's something big…] when the morning came, at a certain lake, Hunter J, who was hired by Team Galactic, came to capture the legendary Pokémon, Azelf, which was able to do. Once that happened, Ash felt terrible pain in his head, much to his confusion and agony. As Hunter J was putting Azelf in a container, Mesprit and Uxie came to the scene and begin to battle in hopes to rescue their fellow lake guardian. Unfortunately, Hunter J was able to capture them too, and when that happened, Dawn and Brock felt pain in their minds and bodies, like they were sensing legendary guardians' pain, like how Ash was sensing Azelf a few moments ago. When Hunter J gave the lake guardians to Team Galactic and fly off in her ship, the lake guardians' Future Sight came and damaged the ship, which then fell into the lake and sank to the bottom, and Hunter J was no more. Back with Ash and his friends, they were no longer in pain, but they were very worried. Ash: “What was that…?” Dawn: “I don't know… but I think Azelf, Mesprit and Uxie are in trouble…” Brock: “I think you might be right, something happened to them and they use their psychic powers to alert us.” Ash: “But why, we never even met them…” Dawn: “Yeah… it's a real mystery…” meanwhile, at the Team Galactic HQ, Saturn and Mars were busy placing what looked like red crystals, called the red Chain, on the foreheads of the lake guardians, and once that happened, the lake trio were no longer in stone form and started screaming in pain. Back with Ash, he and his friends were pain too, and suddenly, they glowed and vanished without a trace, and somehow ended up in Team Galactic HQ. Saturn; “Those kids again?” Mars: “What are they doing here?, and how?” asked Mars, before Ash and the others see the lake trio. Ash: “Azelf!” Dawn: “Mesprit!” Brock: “Uxie!” Ash: “What's wrong with them?” Dawn: “What are those things on their heads?” Saturn: “That would be pieces of the Red Chine, something we made from the meteor we got from Veilstone city.” Ash: “Team Galactic!, we should have known it was you!” Mars: “Yeah, and soon our plan to create the new world is nearing completion.” Saturn: “Now it's time to finish you off.” said Saturn, before another man, named Cyrus (voiced by Ted Lewis), the boss of Team Galactic himself, came to the scene. Cyrus: “Wait, what have I told you about solving everything with violence?” Saturn: “Right… my apologies sir.” Ash: “You must be the boss of Team Galactic…” Cyrus: “That's right, I am Cyrus, founder and leader of Team Galactic, and my goal is to end this terrible world and begin a new and better one with the aid of Dialga and Palkia, along with the lake trio.” Ash: “But you can't!, there are so many people and Pokémon living in this world!” Cyrus: “Maybe… but they're worthless souls who believe only in violence and greed, like Hunter J for example, or Team Rocket for another.” Dawn: “You're no different from them!, you're hurting so many Pokémon and people for your goal!, this has gotta stop!” Cyrus: “You can't stop the plan, especially not when we're so close to achieve our long awaited goal.” said Cyrus, before he orders his men to attack and capture the group, and soon they were locked up in a cell with a man named Looker (voiced by Jason Griffith), a member of the international police force, and the Team Rocket trio. Jessie: “Great… they got the twerps too…” Ash: “Team Rocket?, what are you doing here?” James: “We were trying to find you when we found this place, and Team Galactic caught us…” Meowth: “And we've been in here since then with this guy named Looker, who happens to be a member of the International police force.” Brock: “The International police?!” Looker: “Yes, I was trying to uncover the plans of Team Galactic, and it seems they planned to destroy this world and make a new one in their own image…” Ash: “We can't let them do that!, we gotta stop them!” Jessie: “Okay, but how do you plan on getting out of here?” asked Jessie, before some noise was heard from outside, and that was when the doors opened up and Cynthia was the one who opened them. Ash: “Cynthia!” Looker: “The Sinnoh league champ?” Cynthia: “I was training in the area when I saw the kids been taken here by Team Galactic.” Ash: “Yeah, we gotta hurry, if we don't stop them now, it's the end of the world!” said Ash, before he makes a run for it, heading to where Team Galactic was, while the others followed behind him. Back with Team Galactic, Cyrus was in Spear Pillar, and he was using the Lake trio and the Adamant and Lustrous orbs to summon both Dialga and Palkia, who got caught in the Red Chain, which has the power to control them. Of course that was when Ash and the others came to the scene, and they were determined to stop Team Galactic once and for all. Brock sends out his Croagunk to battle Saturn's Toxicroak, and this time, Croagunk takes down Toxicroak at last. Cyrus tried to order Dialga and Palkia to begin creating his new world, and the legendary duo were firing beams from their mouths that hit each other, and an orb that showed some kind of universe beginning to be formed. Cyrus: “Once my world is made, everything and everyone of this wold shall be erased.” Mars: “Then let's go to our new world.” Cyrus: “I have no need for you any longer, your mere existence will only poison my new world.” Saturn: “No need for us?!” Ash: “How could you do that to your own teammates?!” Cyrus: “They were nothing more than cruel tools that are no longer needed, I shall create my perfect world by my own hand.” Ash: “You're insane!” Meowth: “For once I agree with the twerp.” Jessie: “Same here.” James: “And make it double for me.” Cyrus: “It doesn't matter what you think of me, you're all about to be erased.” Ash: “Not if I can help it!, come on Pikachu, let's end this!” Pikachu: [You got it!] soon, the battle between Team Galactic and our heroes went more intense, and Pikachu used Iron Tail to break the Red Chains on Dialga and Palkia, along with the Lake trio, causing them all to be free again, causing the new world to start fading away. Cyrus: “My perfect world… it's mine… and mine alone!” shouted Cyrus, before jumps into the new world, and vanished along with it. Mars: “Cyrus… he's gone…” Saturn: “Along with the new world…” said Mars and Saturn, before the Lake trio came over to Ash, Dawn and Brock. Azelf: [Thank you Ash, along with Brock and Dawn, we knew you would have what it takes to stop Team Galactic.] Ash: “But how?, we never met before…” Azelf: [Well… we did… but it's complicated…] Mesprit: [Yes… you'll understand better when the time comes…] Uxie: [But for now… we must go, and return to our lakes.] said the Lake trio, before they flew up and teleported away, while Dialga and Palkia let out a mighty roar before going back to where they came from. Soon, the police came and arrested the rest of Team Galactic, and Cynthia and her grandmother, who arrived a short time ago, were making sure the Adamant and Lustrous orbs will be go back the research center at Celestic town. Cynthia: “We can't thank you enough for saving not only Sinnoh, but the whole world as well.” Ash: “That's alright, we were just trying to do the right thing.” Dawn: “Yeah, so there's no need to worry.” Brock: “Say Cynthia… I hope you don't mind… but could you perhaps…” before Brock could finish, Croagunk used Poison Jab on him, knocking him out and drags him away from the scene. Cynthia: “Is he okay?” Dawn: “He'll be fine, this is actually normal.” Ash: “That's for sure…” Pikachu: [No kidding… but at least we don't have to worry about Team Galactic anymore…] and so Ash and his friends have saved Sinnoh and the world from the evil plans of Team Galactic, along with saving it's legendary Pokémon, who knows what could be next for our heroes as the journey continues.

The Sunyshore city tower heist.
After stopping Team Galactic and saving Sinnoh and the world, Ash continues his journey with his friends, and it wasn't long before they arrived to Sunyshore city, the location of the last Sinnoh gym badge. When they met the gym leader, who was named Volkner (voiced by Eli James), he was not into gym battles as much as he used to and was more into machinery, so the man only handed Ash the badge, but he refused to take it unless he earns it. Volkner: “Look kid, what's the point of battling if I could just beat you with ease?” Ash: “What?!, you don't know that!, my Pokémon are really strong!” Volkner: “That's what they all say before they get the shock of their lives.” suddenly, a hole was formed on the ground, and out of it came what looked like a small dragon that looked a little like a shark, along with a little green and white hedgehog, and a little Cyndaquil, and all three of them were beaten up pretty badly. Dawn: “Oh my gosh!, the poor things!” Ash: “I see a Cyndaquil… but what are the other two?” Volkner: “The one with the fin is Gible… but the other… that's a Shaymin… a Mythical grass type of Sinnoh…” said Volkner, surprised to see a Shaymin in person. Dawn went to pick up both Cyndaquil and Shaymin, while Ash picks up Gible, taking them to the Pokémon center in hopes to heal them. Nurse Joy: “They should be fine now… but what happened?” Ash: “No clue, they just came out of a hole and they were covered in bruises…” Brock: “My best guess was that they were attacked…” Dawn: “But by what?, and who?, and why?” Volkner: “If only one of us can talk to Pokémon… then maybe they can tell us…” Ash: “Uh…” said Ash, while trying to look away and of course Brock and Dawn were doing the same. It wasn't long before Gible, Shaymin and Cyndaquil woke up and see that Ash, Dawn and the others were there. Dawn: “No need to worry, you're safe now.” Shaymin: [Hey… you're the humans that helped us get here… thanks…] Ash: “No problem… but can you tell us what happened?” Shaymin: [If only I could… but it would be tough to tell you that some trainer hurt us…] Ash: “A trainer hurt you?!” Cyndaquil: [Wait… did he just…] Gible: [No way…] Shaymin: [You can understand me?] Ash: “Yeah, I can talk to Pokémon, through something called Aura.” Shaymin: [Then that means… you're an Aura guardian?!] Ash: “Not really, just a trainer, but can you tell me what happened?” Shaymin: [Well… alright, it happened this morning…. When I was flying in the sky and saw a poor little Cyndaquil being beaten up by his own trainer, just for failing a few battles.] Ash: “What?!, no trainer should treat their own Pokémon like that!” Shaymin: [I know… that's why I went to take him away from that trainer, who began to send a lot of Spearow to attack us… of course Gible was in the area and he helped up by using Dig…] Gible: [But those Spearow followed us through the tunnel and attacked… I managed to block the part of the tunnel to keep them away… and dug as fast as I could to escape… and that was when we came out of the ground and met you…] Ash: “I'm so sorry to hear that…” Cyndaquil: [That Damian… he was so mean…] Ash: “Wait… was that his name?!” Pikachu: [That low life… so he's behind this…] said Pikachu, before Ash went to tell the others what he learned. Dawn: “Wait… Damian… where have I heard that name before…?” Brock: “That was the trainer we warned you about, the one who abandoned Grotle and Monferno when they were just a Turtwig and Chimchar.” Dawn: “Oh yeah… now I remember… I can't believe this… how could he do that to a poor Cyndaquil…” said Dawn while feeling sad for Cyndaquil and angry at Damian. Ash: “I know… he gives trainers everywhere a bad name…” Brock: “And something tells me we'll meet him soon…” suddenly, all the power of the whole city went out, like the source of it's power was cut off. Nurse Joy: “Oh no!, something must have happened to the Sunyshore tower!” Volkner: “No kidding… look!” shouted Volkner, pointing at the tower itself, which was now flying like a rocket, before it makes a landing, and an evil laugh of the Team Rocket trio was heard. Jessie: “With this tower, we can use it as our Sinnoh base for Team Rocket.” James: “Indeed, and it's power is a good bonus too.” Meowth: “That's right!” Ash: “Team Rocket!, should have known it was you!” Volkner: “You know them?” Dawn: “Yeah, they're bad guys who steal Pokémon from other people.” Brock: “But it looks like they're planning to steal that tower.” Volkner: “That's not good, for you see that tower is the power source of Sunyshore city… and if they take that away, we're powerless!” Ash: “Well they're not getting away with it!” said Ash, before he runs into the building, with Volkner and Gible following behind him, before the tower started to fly off like a rocket. Dawn: “Ash!, Gible!” Brock: “We gotta go after them.” suddenly, they noticed Shaymin and Cyndaquil shaking in fear, and looked up ahead to see someone coming, who was in fact Damian himself. Damian: “So there you are, thought you could get away from me so easily, huh?” Dawn: “Who's that?” Brock: “It's Damian… looks like he showed up after all…” Dawn: “So that's Damian…” said Dawn, letting out an angry glare at the bad trainer. Damian: “Hey I know you!, the guy who hangs out with the kid that took my Charmander, Cyndaquil and Torkoal!” Brock: “He saved them from you!, for the way you treated them was cruel and against everything a trainer is supposed to do!” Damian: “Either way, I will get that Cyndaquil back, and that Shaymin will be mine too.” Dawn: “You're not getting either of them!, not on my watch!” Damian: “What are you gonna do about it?, you're just an annoying little bratty girl!” Dawn: “What did you say?!, you creep!, don't you know anything about how to talk to a lady?!” Damian: “Don't care about that, now if you want them too… then let's have a match to see who gets to have both of them.” Dawn: “Fine by me, if it means keeping them away from you!” Brock: “Be careful Dawn, Damian is the type who would cheat.” Dawn: “Don't worry, I won't lose to a jerk like him.” said Dawn, as she prepares herself to battle Damian for the sake of both Shaymin and Cyndaquil. Back with Ash, he was on his way to the Team Rocket trio, when the trio themselves came and sent out their Pokémon to battle, which was a venous fly trap like Pokémon called Carnivine and a red dragonfly like Pokémon called Yanma. The boy then pulls out his Pokédex to find out more about what he's up against. Pokédex: [Carnivine is a fly trap Pokémon, it has a large mouth to capture it's prey.] [Yanma is a dragonfly Pokémon that has eyes that can see a full 360 degrees around without moving it's head.] Ash: “I see you have new Pokémon.” Jessie: “Yes, impressive, aren't they?” Ash: “What happened to Cacnea and Seviper?” James: “We… gave them to the boss as an apology gift for not getting any Pokémon back in Hoenn…” Ash: “You gave your own Pokémon to that jerk?!” Meowth: “It's not like we had a choice, if you didn't gotten in our way, we wouldn't had to give them away!” said Meowth, before the battle begins, and that was when Yanma learned a new move called Ancient Power, and suddenly, Yanma glowed and evolved into Yanmega, causing Ash to pull out his Pokédex to find out more. Pokédex: [Yanmega is the evolved form of Yanma, when it flutters it's wings, it creates shock waves that can cause internal damage to it's opponents.] Jessie: “Well, that sounds impressive, alright, time to make the twerp learn a lesson on not to mess with Team Rocket!” before Yanmega could attack, Volkner and Gible came to the scene, ready to fight back. Ash then sends out both Grotle and Monferno to battle, and during the fight against Team Rocket, both Grotle and Monferno evolved into Torterra and Infernape, and Ash pulls out his Pokédex to find out more about them. Pokédex: [Torterra is the evolved form of Grotle and the fully evolved form of Turtwig, and it's large back and sanitary nature offer an ideal place for smaller Pokémon to build their nests.] [Infernape is the evolved form of Monferno and fully evolved form of Chimchar, and it fiery crown reflects it's fiery nature, and it's speed is unmatched.] Jessie: “Whoa… they're both big…” James: “This can't be good…” Meowth: “You got that right…” Ash: “Alright!, Infernape use Flame Wheel!, and Torterra use Energy ball!, and Gible use Draco Meteor!” called out Ash, before the three Pokémon used those attack to send the Team Rocket trio flying out of the scene. Once the danger was over, Volkner went to the room where the Team Rocket trio were controlling it, and set it to fly back to Sunyshore city. As soon as the tower got back into place, Volkner went to look at the boy. Volkner: “Thanks Ash… if it weren't for you… my home would have lost this tower for good.” Ash: “No problem, I had to do something to help the Pokémon at the Pokémon center.” Volkner: “Is there anyway I can thank you?” Ash: “Well… if you give me a real gym battle…” Volkner: “I see… well you proved that your Pokémon are really strong… so I guess I can give ya a chance, but don't cry when I beat you.” Ash: “Don't worry, I won't lose so easily.” soon they made it back to the Pokémon center, only to see that Dawn was battling Damian, which was just about over. Damian: “I don't believe this!, how could I lose to a girl of all things?!” Dawn: “Because unlike you, I actually took care of my Pokémon.” Damian: “Whatever!, I'm gonna get that Cyndaquil and Shaymin if it's the last thing I do!” shouted Damian, before he pulls out a butterfly net and tries to use it on Cyndaquil and Shaymin. However, Pikachu used Thunderbolt to zap Damian, which forced him to retreat and left the scene. Ash: “Dawn, are you and the others okay?” Dawn: “Yeah we're fine, and I can see why you really dislike that Damian guy… he's a total jerk.” Brock: “No kidding… at least you managed to get the tower back.” Ash: “Yeah, and Volkner finally agreed to battle me for the badge.” Dawn: “That's great.” and so some time after repairing the tower, Volkner was ready to challenge Ash. The battle was tough, but the boy and his Pokémon were able to pull through and won the battle, allowing the boy to earn the Beacon badge. Volkner: “Well… I was not expecting you to be a real challenge… let alone beating me… well done, you truly earned the badge.” Ash: “Thanks.” after leaving the gym, Gible came over to Ash and asked him if he could join the team, which he accepts and soon the land shark Pokémon was caught. As for Cyndaquil and Shaymin, they decided to join Dawn's team, as a way to thank her for saving them from Damian. Dawn: “I can't believe that I managed to catch a mythical Pokémon… just like May with Manaphy on TV…” Brock: “Remember Dawn, you need to treat Shaymin with a lot of care just like the rest of your Pokémon.” Dawn: “I will, and I can't wait to get to the Grand Festival of Sinnoh…” Ash: “I know what you mean, now that I got all 8 badges of Sinnoh, I can finally enter the Sinnoh league…” and so Ash has caught a Gible and earned his eighth and final Sinnoh gym badge while Dawn caught a Cyndaquil and Shaymin. Who knows what could be next for our heroes as the journey continues.

The Sinnoh Pokémon League.
After catching Gible and earning his final Sinnoh gym badge, Ash was now able to enter the Sinnoh league. But before he can do that, it was time for Dawn's moment to shine, as she finally got enough ribbons to enter the Grand Sinnoh Festival, where the winner would get to be Top Coordinator. However, Dawn lost to Zoey, who became Top Coordinator, but Dawn knew that her dream was not over as she has still much to learn. Soon, the group made it to the Sinnoh Pokémon league, where they ran into Goodshow, the president of the Pokémon leagues of the world once again, well the first time meeting him for Dawn's case. Ash: “Hey Mr Goodshow, how's it going?” Goodshow: “Not good… the torch to start the league… well…” Ash: “Don't tell me… Team Rocket stole it again?” Goodshow: “Well I don't know if it was Team Rocket again, but it was stolen indeed.” Dawn: “The torch?” Brock: “Yeah, the Pokémon league starts with the flame of Moltres, or Ho-oh in the case of Johto.” Ash: “Team Rocket tried to steal the torch in Kanto, Johto, even Hoenn… I wouldn't be surprised if it was them again… even though it sounds really dumb for them.” Goodshow: “Yes, but they were still able to pull it off…” that was when Officer Jenny came to the scene. Officer Jenny: “President Goodshow, we located the thieves, they're trying to use a machine to switch the trainers' Pokéballs with empty ones.” Ash: “Really?” Officer Jenny: “Yes, say… you're one of the trainers that went to that machine.” Ash: “What?!” said Ash, before he checks out his Pokéballs, and it turns out they were all empty, much to his shock and dismay. Dawn: “Oh no!” Ash: “I can't believe it… I've been had!” that was when he and the others heard a laugh, which came from the Team Rocket trio, who were on a machine that was full of Pokéballs and Meowth was holding the torch. Jessie: “You got that right, twerp, now that we got your Pokémon, you can't stop us from getting the torch this time.” James: “Indeed, we're not as dumb as you thought we were.” Meowth: “That's right!” Brock: “But you didn't get our Pokémon.” Dawn: “Yeah, we can still battle you.” Ash: “And I still got Pikachu, you ready?” Pikachu: [You bet I am.] Jessie: “You don't wanna risk damaging the Pokéballs, meaning harming the Pokémon inside, do you?” said Jessie with an evil smile, causing everyone to stop and glared. Suddenly, all the Pokéballs glowed and vanished without a trace, much to the Team Rocket trio's shock and surprise. Meowth: “What the?!, where did they all go?!” James: “Was that magic?!” Ash: “Pikachu, Thunderbolt!” called out Ash, before Pikachu lets out a powerful Thunderbolt on the Team Rocket trio, sending them flying out of the scene. Pikachu then managed to get a hold on the torch, much to Goodshow's relief. Brock: “Nice catch.” Pikachu: [Thanks.] Ash: “But… what happened to the Pokéballs?” Dawn: “Look!, there they are!” said Dawn, pointing at the pile of Pokéballs on the ground. Ash: “What a relief… but I still can't understand how they got here…” Officer Jenny: “Well based from the glow… I would say a psychic type Pokémon used Teleport on them.” Dawn: “A psychic type?, what kind?” Officer Jenny: “That I have no clue… but I do know that Team Rocket would have gotten away with the torch and the Pokéballs if it didn't used it's move on them…” unaware to the group, the sound of someone giggling was heard only through Pikachu's ears, and the electric type heard somewhere before, but he didn't knew where. Turns out that Mirage Mew was the culprit of teleporting the Pokéballs from Team Rocket, as she had a version of the event happening, so she came to stop them, and now that the threat was over, she teleported herself back to Pallet town. Later, Ash was asked to run the torch to start the Sinnoh league, which he was happy to do so, and once he got the torch in place, the Sinnoh League was finally able to begin. As Ash challenges the first 4 rounds, Ash decided to let Cyndaquil, the fire type he caught from the Johto region, to have a battle as she wanted one more battle before evolve and she did. Cyndaquil evolved into Quilava, and Ash pulls out his Pokédex to find out more the Johto starter's new form. Pokédex: [Quilava is the evolved form of Cyndaquil, and it's body is covered in fire proof fur and can withstand any fire type attack.] then Ash gets to use Phanpy to battle a trainer, and he was ready to evolve too, which was a Donphan, and Ash pulls out his Pokédex again to find out more. Pokédex: [Donphan is the evolved form of Phanpy, and just like it's pre-evolved form, it attacks by rolling it's body into a circle and charges it's opponents, but with more power with it's armor and large tusks.] When Ash beaten that trainer and then got to the Top 8, he was facing a trainer named Paul, who was not only a cold trainer, but his Pokémon were really tough, but Ash and his team were able to pull off and beat him. As the boy plans for his strategy in the Top 4, Ash heard from some trainers talking about a trainer named Tobias, who managed to beat all the gym leaders by using only one Pokémon, which was the mythical Darkrai. Dawn: “No way… a trainer with a mythical Darkrai?, one that's known to give others nightmares…?, that will be a problem…” Brock: “Yeah, as most Mythical or Legendary Pokémon are known to be very powerful…” Ash: “I'm sure my team can handle it.” Dawn: “I don't know Ash… your Pokémon would have to be either mythical or Legendary to do much against something like Darkrai…” hearing this gave Ash an idea, and decided to get a call with Professor Oak. Soon, in the Top 4 round, Ash gets to battle Tobias (voiced by J. Michael Tatum), who sent out his Darkrai to battle. Tobias: “So you're the trainer who got to run the torch, it's nice to meet you, but this is about as far as you can go.” Ash: “We'll see about that.” said Ash, before the battle between the two trainers began, and it was tough, as the Darkrai proved to be very powerful, even Pikachu couldn't beat it. Tobias: “See?, noun of your Pokémon have what it takes to beat my Darkrai, and even if you beat it, I still have five more Pokémon, while you only have two.” Ash: “Maybe… but let me warn you… these two are in the same rank as your Darkrai.” Tobias: “Oh?, how so?” Ash: “You're about to find out… I choose you… Mirage Mew!” called out Ash, as he sends out Mirage Mew into battle, and the sight of her made not only Tobias to gasp in shock, but the whole audience in the stadium and those who were watching through the TV. Dawn: “Wait… Mew?, isn't that mythical Pokémon?, and Ash has caught one?!” Brock: “Yeah, near the end of Ash's trip in Hoenn just before the league there, so this is her first league battle.” Dawn: “Wow… amazing…” Brock: “Yeah… though I don't know if Mew's the best choice as she's a psychic type, and Darkrai is a dark type…” Dawn: “That's right, Psychic types are weak against ghost, bug and dark types…” Brock: “Even so… I doubt Mew is gonna be beaten easily…” back at the battlefield, Tobias was still shocked by this, he wasn't expected to battle a trainer with a mythical Pokémon of his own. Tobias: “Well… this is a surprise… you have a Mew?” Ash: “Yeah, and she's not gonna be taken down without a fight.” Tobias: “Well… this should be an interesting battle…” said Tobias, before the battle continues, this time it was Darkrai vs Mirage Mew, and the while the Mirage Pokémon had a type disadvantage, she was able pull through and managed to defeat Darkrai. Ash: “Alright!, way to go Mirage Mew!, you did it girl!” Mirage Mew: [Yay!, I really did it!] Tobias: “Well… I'm impressed, you're the first trainer who ever managed to defeat my Darkrai… but now it's time for my next Pokémon… go Latios!” called out Tobias, before he sends out what looked like a Latias, only larger, white and blue instead of white and red, and it was male, called a Latios. Ash: “What?!, you have Legendary too?!” Tobias: “That's right, of course Latios is my only Legendary while Darkrai is my only Mythical, but even if you can beat Latios, I still have four more, and you only have two, and one of them seems to be tired now.” said Tobias, who was right about Mirage Mew being tired after her battle against Darkrai. Ash: “Mirage Mew… can you still battle?” Mirage Mew: [I think so… and if I no longer be able to battle… you still have her…] Ash: “Yeah… let's do this…” said Ash, before Mirage Mew continues to battle, and this time against Tobias' Latios. The battle was intense, but in the end, Latios won while Mirage Mew was defeated. Tobias: “Your Mirage Mew was well trained… but this is the end, whatever your last Pokémon be… it'll be no match for my Latios.” Ash: “We'll see about that… I choose you… Latias!” called out Ash, before he sends out Latias to battle, and the sight of her made both Tobias and the audience to gasp in shock. Dawn: “No way!, Ash has a Latias too?!” Brock: “Yeah, he caught her near the end of his trip in Johto.” Dawn: “Does he have any more legendaries or mythical Pokémon?” Brock: “No, Mirage Mew and Latias are the only ones… and they're probably what Ash wanted to call Professor Oak for when he heard about Tobias and his Darkrai earlier.” Dawn: “I see…” back at the battlefield, Tobias was soon came back to his sense and smiled. Tobias: “Well… first Mew… and now a Latias?, it seems we both have some mythical and legendary Pokémon, however, you still have a long way to go.” Ash: “Maybe… but I can at least try taking down your Latios.” Latias: [Hmm… I never imagined that my opponent would the same kind as my late brother… but I know that's not him… and I won't let Ash down…] said Latias, before she and Tobias' Latios begin their battle. It was tough, and both Legendaries were giving each other everything they got. Eventually the battle came to an end, and both of them were unable to battle any further, but since Tobias still had four other Pokémon, he was declared the winner, while Ash lost another league, but he was happy as he was able to beat not only Darkrai but the Latios too, not to mention that he manged to make it to the Top 4 too. Later, Tobias went to the final round and was able to win, making him the winner of the whole Sinnoh League. With a winner now, the Sinnoh League comes to a close, and soon the trainers were on their back home to get some rest and get ready for the next time the League renews. As for Ash and his friends, they were at the docks, waiting for a ferry that will take both Ash and Brock back to Kanto, while Dawn will wait for a ferry that will take her to Johto. Ash: “Are you sure you're gonna be okay without us?” Dawn: “No need to worry, I've learned so much from you and Brock during our travels… I think I can take care of myself now.” Brock: “Well good luck in Johto.” Dawn: “And good luck on your dream on becoming a Pokémon breeder or doctor.” Brock: “Yeah.” Ash: “See ya Dawn, it was really fun traveling with ya.” Dawn: “Yeah… you too.” while saying their goodbyes, Piplup couldn't help but feel sad and wanted to cry, but Pikachu used his paw to pet the little penguin's head for comfort. Pikachu: [Don't cry buddy, this isn't goodbye forever… I'm sure we'll see each other again someday.] Piplup: [Yeah… I know… I just wished we can travel more together…] Pikachu: [Yeah… me too, but don't worry, I'm sure you and Dawn will be alright.] Piplup: [Uh huh… I think so too…] soon, the trainers went to their ferry rides and sailed off to either Johto or Kanto, waving goodbye one last time. Once Ash and Brock got back to Kanto, the pair looked at each, and Ash was looking a bit sad. Ash: “So… you're no longer able to travel with me?” Brock: “Not at the moment, I'm afraid my training to be a Pokémon doctor won't let me travel with you like I used to… but don't worry, I'm sure you'll be able to take care of yourself now.” Ash: “Yeah… you might be right, but tell me, why suddenly decided to be a Pokémon doctor?” Brock: “Well there aren't as many of those as there should be, and I always had the skills of one.” Pikachu: [Maybe he wanted to be one just to win Nurse Joy's heart.] Ash: “Yeah, you might be right.” Brock: “What did Pikachu say?” Ash: “Oh something about wanting to be a Pokémon doctor to impress a certain nurse.” this made Brock gulp and blush a little. Brock: “Well… maybe that too…” Ash: “Well either way… I'm sure you can do it… and I want you to know that it was really fun traveling with you this long…” Brock: “Yeah… same here, good luck on your dream.” Ash: “Yeah… yours too.” said the pair, before the shook hands and went their separate ways. Pikachu: [I can't believe it… first Misty… Tracy… then May and Max… Dawn… and now Brock… it sure feels lonely without them…] Ash: “Yeah, but I'm sure we'll make new friends on our next adventure.” and so Ash competed in the Sinnoh League, and although he lost again, he was able to show the world a legendary battle they'll never forget. Who knows what could be next for our hero as the journey continues.
