Pokemon: Bond Evolutions of Pokémon

Thank you guys all for reading until this far.

————————————————————

Ash had unexpectedly met the Ice-type Elite 4 member from the Hoenn Region in Mauville City, and their battle had also ended in a decisive draw.

Not only that, May also met Watt by chance at the Mauville City Food Court, who was Wattsons assistant at the Mauville City Gym.

She also and a practice match with her Skitty and Watts Ampharos, and she had surpassed won. She has really improved a lot now from where she was, even managing to beat a fully evolved powerful Pokémon like Ampharos with a Skitty.

Skitty's Assist move was indeed a much more improved version that Ash saw before, and this also proves the high compatibility between May and her new Skitty.

She also learned from Watt that Verdanturf Town, which was not that far away from Mauville City, was about to host a Pokémon Contest of their own.

After checking their map, they did find that Verdanturf Town was on one the closer route they had to take back to go to Petalburg City, so the obvious next destination for the group was Verdanturf Town.

Now Ash and May both have one official ribbon in their collection, but Ash still wasn't worried that either he or May will miss the Grand Festival at the end of their Hoenn Journey.

On the way to Verdanturf Town, the group also passed through a place called Foothill Town. There, May met a senior coordinator who uses a Delcatty, Abby.

Abby was one of the very few Pokémon Coordinators who had won the Grand Festival championship and thus also had the title of being a Top Coordinator, but she has now retired and opened a Pokémon Clinic in Foothill Town to enjoy a quite life, which can truly be regarded as finding a completely new path in life.

Delcatty was the evolved form of Skitty, so Abby and May hit their friendship off immediately, and she also provided some advice to May, almost a complete newbie, on how to be a better Pokémon Coordinator.

Mays Skitty also learned to use Double Slap from Abby's Delcatty while playing with a ball. She also told her experience on how to show off her Pokémon's unique skills in Pokémon Contest, this is something that all Pokémon Coordinators need to do if they want to better themselves and their Pokémon's.

Not only that, Skitty also learned how to use Blizzard, but she was not yet proficient in how to use it, and it doesn't work when she tries to move too much, so there was still much needed practice to have.

But in this way, May now had more confidence than ever in the next Verdanturf Town Pokémon Contest!

Just when they arrived at Verdanturf Town, the Pokémon Contest was still about a day away from them. But sure enough, there were already many Pokémon Coordinators gathered here to practice and do some final analysis.

For Ash on the other had, this was the perfect opportunity for him to earn more Exchange Points, which he really needed badly.

Entering the Pokémon Center, everyone saw the a very familiar figure. Sure enough, Drew had also arrived here, and he was asking Nurse Joy for something.

When they got closer to him, they saw that Drew's Roselia was covered in some deep bruises.

"Drew, you are here too!" May was full of fighting spirit, this time she must defeat Drew. "You also want to participate in tomorrow's Pokémon Contest, right?"

Drew returned to his now conceited look, "That's what I originally planing on doing to..." But his Roselia, who he had entrusted to Nurse Joy at the moment, cannot recover before for the match tomorrow or even the day after that.

"What happened to your Roselia? Why is she so injured?" May felt a little distressed when she looked at how injured the little flower was.

"We had a fight not long ago!" Drew could no longer maintain his conceited attitude, "I was cursed up in that battle!"

"There was Pokémon Coordinato with a mask, he calls himself The Phantom! May, you have to be more careful, but Ash, you mush definitely defeat him!" With that, he bowed lightly to Nurse Joy again and left the Pokémon Center to do whatever he had to do.

Although he has other Pokémon's in his team, he was no longer in the mood to participate in this Pokémon Contest.

He couldn't perform to his best with knowing how injured his Roselia was—and it was all his fault for being this weak.

From this perspective, Drew was still very immature, far from mature. But also shows just how much he loved his Pokémon's.

After completing their needed registration program, May hurried to an empty park near the Pokémon Center to practice. This time she decided to send Skitty on the field.

' That masked Pokémon Coordinator can even defeat even Drew to such an extent, so I have to be careful.' Although she knew that the masked Coordinator mush be very strong, May did not feel much intimidated by him at all. Instead, she gradually became more willing to fight. She had already made a lot of progress, especially knowing that her boyfriend got her back.

"By the way, Ash, who are you going to use in this Pokémon Contest?" Brock asked with concern as he watched May train her Skitty to get better with the ball.

"Togetic is is too playful and doesn't like to perform well in front of so many people, and she also really doesn't seem to be interested in this Kim foc things. Since there is such a powerful and mysterious new character this time, I have decided on going ohhh this girl." Ash threw out a new Poké Ball very casually, "Come out, Meganium."

Meganium, who had not seen her beloved Trainer for a long time now, in real life, saw Ash again and turned her head to ignore him. Ash could easily read what was written all over her face, "I'm very angry and can't be easily coaxed!"

"Wow, what a beautiful Pokémon!" May was immediately stunned. Ash's Meganium was one of the prettiest Pokémon's she had ever seen.

"And it also smells so good." Max was very moved to see the Meganium that so easily beat her opponents in the Silver Conference, "I already saw Meganium when it was still in the Johto Region. May, this is the same Meganium that instantly defeated her opponent in one move at the Silver Conference. She is very strong! You'll definitely lose this time!"

Ash hit him in the head for talking too much but was still very proud to see someone say how strong they were a

Ash also said proudly, "Of course she is beautiful, I take great care of her beauty, I, too, am proud of her!"

Even when she heard Ash praising her so much, Meganium just twitched the corner of her mouth, and then twisted her face away again.

Seeing its appearance, Asv immediately laughed, patted her neck gently and said with a smile, "Okay, is this about not being with me? Don't be angry, I will be with you these couple of days, okay?"

"Ral ra!"

Ralts teleported in front of her, waved her little hand towards it, and the two girls started chatting, ignoring Ash completely as if he wasn't there at all.

They already know each other, after all, Ash had temporarily teleported his Ralts to the Lab for some training a while back.

Besides going to his Growlithe to play around with, and getting yelled at by Houndoom for disturbing his peace, Ralts' biggest achievement was getting to know this beautiful sister, well in her eyes.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew in, mixed with fallen leaves and dust, and a figure appeared from the wind. He was wearing a black cloak, a black hat, and a Dusclops mask on his face.

"Let me ask you, are you going to participate in the Pokémon Contest as a Coordinator and Trainer?" he asked.

"A Pokémon Coordinator who wears a mask!" Max exclaimed in surprise, he now confirmed that this was the same Trainer that Drew was defeated by so easily.

And then he admitted it himself, "I want to fight against you. If I don't fight with someone that has some power, my life gets too boring to enjoy!"

Hearing this, Ash was also a little happy. His Meganium was still standing there next to him. Where did he even get the courage to say all this? Does be not know what true pain was?

Meganiuk was pretty much an insurmountable mountain to this guy.

"Alright then, I'll accept your challenge!" Ash will not refuse the invitation to battle so easily, especially when is blows into him like this guy.

Brock still served as the referee to this battle, and the time limit was 5 minutes. The battle method is the same as the they use in Pokémon Contests. The Pokémon that Ash will use is of course his powerful and bulky Meganium.

The masked man also threw out his Pokémon, "Go, Dusclops!"

It was indeed a Dusclops, and his outfit also had the same styling elements of this Dusclops. Ghost-type Pokémon's are seen as behe difficult to deal with, especially Pokémon's like Dusclops who have a plethora of different ways to do things.

"We have to face him again tomorrow, don't break him too much!" Ash warned his Meganium, "Petal Dance!"

Ash's Meganium's Petal Dance was completely different from what Drew and his Roselia can do.

Both much more beautiful and more unimaginably powerful, the sweet petals spread out and immediately enveloped Dusclops. Before it could use any moves or react to what was happening, it was instantly defeated by Ash and his Meganium.

The scene in front of him made the masked man feel too weak, but then he noticed a luxury car driving towards the park, and immediately took back his Dusclops, who had completely lost his ability to fight back, "The battle will continue next time, goodbye!"

As he spoke, another strong wind blew, and he ran away without leaving a trace, or did he.
