As soon as the smoke dispersed in an instant Arcanine disappeared and then reappeared behind the Blastoise launching a Thunder Fang in the neck.

Machamp saw his partner getting attacked. He aimed a punch directly in the dog's face, but Arcanine jumped then clouds gathered under his feet so he could perform a second jump going over Machamp and on the way down a slash with his claws.

Houndoom from the side charged a Shadow Ball and aimed to hit a Super Fang after, so Arcanine jumped as the ball started following him then he bit down on the bat and forced it to take the hit.

Overall Arcanine was doing better against them, and he could probably win if it weren't for one thing, as the battle continued 'The Gentlemen' started sweating Arcanine was also feeling fatigued but could still continue. But after years together their stamina isn't what it used to be before they could hold it for a long time, but now they could maybe hold it for a minute or two.

So he decided to try to end it now, "Let's end this now, Flare Blitz!"

Arcanine started getting enveloped in light red fire with orange streaks of fire spiraling around it, in an instant, he jumped forward and reached them in the blink of an eye.

Houndoom immediately tried jumping in front to take it with its ability Flash Fire, but the absorbing moves like lightning rod have a drawback, they can absorb the elemental attack, but if the attack is too powerful or it is too much then the Pokemon effectively uses explosion. This was both.

So as the fire started going into the dog it quickly wanted to run away but Arcanine didn't let him, as Houndoom absorbed more and more eventually, *BOOM* an explosion of fire appeared, and when it cleared Houndoom was unconscious, Machamp was unconscious, and Blastoise was unconscious, Arcanine was Breathing hard and couldn't hold the transformation anymore and reverted back to normal Arcanine.

'The Gentlemen' fell over thinking he won until he was a bat landed on his cane, looking over Proton was walking up, "I must say I am impressed, if Golbat was caught in that he would have also gone down, too bad for you, but you have wasted more than enough of our time, I'l take this back," Proton reached into his shirt pocket and pulled out the spoon.

"And since we won I suppose I'll take this too." Proton put his hand out as Golbat removed the Keystone from the cane and put it in his hand as he walked away.

"Don't worry you have impressed me so I'll give you one final goodbye gift," Proton said as he nodded to the grunts and they all immediately started getting into groups to teleport out, meanwhile he gave the spoon back to his Kadabra and pulled out a small flat button.

Kadabra started charging as Proton pushed the button and dropped it into the water, and then they all disappeared.

Underwater Ash and Co finally found the remaining stones; the Sun, Dawn, Dusk, and Shiny stones, he put them away immediately and praised his Pokemon, then from the corner of his eye he saw Magikarp swimming over with a chest in his teeth.

Ash raised his eyebrows and went to meet with him, [Hey what did you find?]

[I found a weird ship and this was in there. I don't know what it is and I can't open it, can you?] he asked.

Ash looked at the lock then with two fingers he snapped it off, letting them see what was inside.

Looking at it it looked to be a Yellow gem with Blue and red inside, Ash could tell what it was so he put it away.

[Good work this is very useful, but for now, we need to get out of here we have spent enough time down here.]

His Pokemon were about to say something when they all noticed a weird disk float down next to them, before they could look at it started releasing an annoying sound, they all heard it but it didn't do anything to them, except for Magikarp, not just his but all the Magikarp around, they all started acting weird like they were in pain.

Ash looked confused when suddenly a random Magikarp evolved in front of him and yelled as he rushed up, then another, then another, then another, they were all evolving and Magikarp seemed like he was resisting it since he saw how they were acting.

The Gyarados started viciously attacking each other trying to show dominance, all of them were blinded by rage.

Ash returned his other Pokemon and went over to Magikarp to grab him, [You need to calm down before it's too late this isn't you.] Only now did Ash see the Yellow scales on Magikarp's stomach.

Magikarp was starting to fade in and out of consciousness, he knew if lost right now he would go on a rampage, he could hear Ash's voice and he started reminiscing about things.

Flashback no Jutsu

This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.

Magikarp was born in the Ocean instead of the Pond where he was found, when he was born he was the last to come out and the smallest, his parents however were both Gyarados which naturally made him better than regular Magikarp.

However because he had a litter of nearly a million siblings, and by Magikarp standards if 2 survive to adulthood that is considered overachieving, as the runt he was left behind to fend for himself.

He managed to survive by himself by abusing his small size, and hiding until he reached the equivalent of his teenage years, by then he was the size of a child Magikarp, so he managed to blend in with a different group of Magikarp.

It went on until he was caught by a bird, and instead of the bird eating him there he flew, all the way back to the forest. He tried to escape by flailing but never did until he got in the middle of the bird and another bird fighting, he escaped and fell into the forest and into the Pond, injured, battered, and bruised along with being in an unfamiliar land he thought it was it for him until a different bird found him.

The bird looked at him as he accepted his fate, but then a feather fell on his head and it went into his body, he was completely healed and felt different, when he tried to see the bird it was gone.

Shortly after that Ash found him, and the rest was history, he managed to start growing and became stronger, and he received a true family.

Flashback end

Magikarp on the outside managed to calm down and saw Ash holding him, he started glowing but he wasn't angry, he was happy.

As he grew all his scales started shedding off revealing a beautiful golden set of scales, and then he was completely enveloped in light.

Back on top, the group went to help the old man back up, as he struggled to get his partner back into his Pokeball.

"Hey old timer, how you feeling?" Gary asked

"Do you want my honest answer?" The Gentleman answered, holding his chest, his heart beating irregularly.

"I guess not but we need to get you out of here, you need medical assistance," Brock said, doing a quick checkup on him.

"Please back in my day we would face far worse than this, if you want me to go to the hospital you'll need an army of Gyarados, Gurararara," the old man laughed, still feeling pain in his chest.

"Anyway we still need to get out of here, and Ash is still stuck downstairs, is Abra good to go," Janine asked, looking over at Yellow.

Abra looked at everyone and seemed to search for something, when she found it she nodded.

"Alright then go get him then we can get out of here," Misty celebrated.

Yellow held Abra out, "Ok Abra go get Ash then let's get ou-"

As soon as Yellow said that a Gyarados jumped out of the water, then another, then another, then another, until at least 10 angry Gyarados were surrounding the ship.

Everyone had a blank expression for a good few seconds, "... what? WHAT!?"

The Gyarados roared into the air and started thrashing around attacking everything and bumped into the ship making everyone fall over.

When they opened their eyes they saw that the Gyarados were starting to tear into the ship, and looking at the old man he was on his knees clutching his heart mumbling, "I was joking."

Yellow rushed to get him back up but looking back up she saw a tail rushing down at her, she closed her eyes since there wasn't much room to run and Abra flew out of her hands.

But instead of feeling anything, everyone heard a clap, when Yellow opened her eyes Ash was standing there and a Blue barrier was blocking the tail.

"Well, I didn't expect I'd need to show you guys this, especially not this early," Ash said smiling, as he held his fingers out and pointed to the side, a red Gyarados came and attacked the Gyarados knocking him away.

Everyone was stunned, firstly by what they were seeing and secondly by how Ash was looking, his clothes were wet, he had no hat so his hair was on his face, and his jacket was still dirty and had holes.

Yellow looked at what Ash was doing, "Wait are you going to tell them about the secret?"

Everyone hearing what Yellow was saying looked confused as they saw Ash put his hands down and the Barrier did the same.

"I'm about to let everyone in on the secret." Ash put his hands together and started doing hand motions (not like Naruto, more like JJK). Then he spun them as electricity sparked between his fingers, then he made a motion of pulling back a bow, and an electrical bow appeared in his hands.

He then released it then in an instant a bolt of lightning hit one Gyarados, then the lighting chained with the rest, shocking a total of 4, and with the x4 they floated back down.

Ash breathed out and let Gyarados take care of the rest, then turned back to see the old man struggling, "What happened while I was gone, hey Yellow mind helping me with this?"

Ash put the old man on his back and put his ear to his chest, meanwhile Yellow quickly rushed over with Pikachu. She put him down and put her hands on the old man as they started glowing.

After hearing his chest he got up, "His heart stopped, I need to restart it."

Ash put his hands together and a weak electricity appeared, "200 volts."

No reaction, "350 volts."

Still nothing, "500 volts"

By the third time, his heart finally started beating weakly, thankfully he was unconscious of everything.

"Alright he's alive, we need to get out of here," Ash said looking back and everyone was looking at him with a blank expression, except Damian.

"*Sigh* And this is why I didn't want to tell anyone, I can answer your questions later, for now, we need to get out of here," Ash said.

Over by the side, Gyarados took down most of the original group of Gyarados, but more were starting to appear.

Ash grabbed Abra, Pikachu, and the Old man then returned Gyarados as he rushed over to have everyone touch Abra, and as soon as they did they all diapered.

At the port, the 5 trainers were being questioned and Surge was finally getting back to his senses, the entire area was shut down since the international Police showed up, and Looker who was currently the highest rank took control as they started gathering boats to sail out.

Until a group of 10 people popped into the middle of the peer, and one of them was their senior officer, needless to say, the officers took them in for questions, but not before Ash handed the old man over to the medical team.

And after Damian, Tempest, and Darwin revealed their rank, and it was confirmed, they were all let go after they explained what happened over at the S.S. Anne.

Ash reached into his 'bag' and pulled out the 50 Pokeballs and explained how they were Team Rocket Pokemon, he even received a bit of money as compensation.

So after they all had a moment to breathe they all looked at Ash and Yellow questioningly.

"So are you going to tell us?"

"Well, long story short, you know the Pokemon Lucario, yeah I can pretty much do everything they can."

"How about a long story medium."

Ash sighed and slouched in his chair, "OK, ever hear of Aura"
