After the match/POV: Dusk

Goomba, Darkrai, and Ashlie were enjoying some Scones in Turffield, when I heard Goh call me over, so I walked over to him behind one of the store buildings, and asked if there was a problem.

"Dusk, I know you're the respected Champion of Reborn, so, can I ask you a couple of things?" Goh sighed, "It's about Ashlie."

"What's the problem Goh?" I asked him, not knowing what to expect.

"Is she really Ash Ketchum?" He asked.

Oh man, he figured out the secret! Well, I hope this goes well...

"Yes, yes she is..." I sighed in defeat, "...but she'll have a heart attack from the rapid flow of memories of her old selves."

"What do you mean?" Goh asked, and I explained that she is Ash Ketchum and Lillie Aether combined, and Chuster was Pikachu and Lillie's Alolan Vulpix 'Snowy' combined as well, but they have no memories, "Yeesh, that's rough!"

"Yeah, so please don't give it away Goh," I sighed, ", it would mean a lot!"

"Sure, we're friends now Dusk, anything for you guys!" Goh chuckled.

"Hey Darkrai, hey Goomba!" I heard a familiar voice, "How have you been?"

"Hey, where's my greeting Leon?" I laughed, and Leon walked over to me and shook my hand, "Long time no see!"

"It sure has been a while, and I also brought Hop along!" Leon chuckled, "He's joined the World Coronation Series, but still, it's sad to hear what happened to Ash..."

"Leon, about that, can I talk to you in private?" Darkrai asked, and the Galar Champion nodded and they went to the river to talk.

"So you've entered the World Coronation Series Hop?" Ashlie asked, and Hop nodded, "I just entered it too! Say, how about we have a World Coronation Series battle tomorrow? Because I am pretty tired out from the battle against Milo!"

"Yeah, tomorrow will be the start of my legacy!" Hop laughed.

At the river/POV: Darkrai

"So, there's something you need to know about Ash Ketchum, Lillie Aether, and their partners Leon..." I sighed, "...they're actually alive."

"No way, really?!" Leon gasped, "Where are they?"

"They were fused together, Ash and Lillie became the blonde girl, and Pikachu and Snowy became Chuster!" I stated, "Don't tell them though, because it'll have memories flow back to them, and make them traumatized."

"Your promise is safe with me Darkrai!" Leon stated, "Now, I suppose you and Dusk want to have a rematch with me since in the Masters Cup I defeated you Cinderace with Inteleon, and Dusk's Eevee with Dragapult!"

"I think Dusk wants to do more training before facing you again!" I laughed, "But I'll happily face you!"

"Right, let's get ready!" Leon stated, we used our Rotom Phones to set up a match in Turffield Stadium at 1:20 pm.

Back at the lunch table/ POV: Goomba

"Well if it isn't my old friend Goomba!" I heard a easily recognizable voice exclaim, "Over here!" I looked to my left and saw my old friend Zizzy, and smiled.

(Note: I got permission to use Zizzy in this story!)

"Hey Spiky look, it's Zizzy!" I chuckled to Spiky, who grinned and rushed over to Zizzy, giving her a hug, "Same old Spiky. how are you Zizzy?"

"I'm great!" Zizzy giggled, "Also, Scorbunny evolved two times, and now she's a Cinderace!"

"No way, seriously?!" I exclaimed, "Cinder also evolved! Cinder, come on out!"

"Cindy, you too!" Zizzy exclaimed, and out two Fire Types shared a hug, I remember when they hatched from their eggs.

"So Zizzy, I'm assuming you got my text?" I asked, and Zizzy nodded.

"Okay, so the blonde kid is Ashlie right?" Zizzy asked, and I nodded, then she walked over to greet the kid, "Hey there Ashlie, my name's Zizzy! I'm a friend of Goomba!"

"Nice to meet you Zizzy!" Ashlie giggled, and Chuster walked onto her shoulder, "This is my partner Chuster!"

"Nice to meet you!" Chuster chuckled, and then a Great Ball on Zizzy's trainer belt popped open and let out her Pikachu "Pika"!

"Ooh, a Pikachu!" Pika chuckled, "Nice!"

"Long time no see Pika!" I laughed, and Spiky jumped down to greet her old friend, "Why not send Rosie out Zizzy?"

"Okay," Zizzy stated, ", Rosie, come say hello!" And her Sylveon came out.

"Oh, hiya Goomba, long time no see!" Rosie giggled, "How have you been?"

"I've been great Rosie!" I chuckled, "We met Ashlie at the Crown Tundra and she's been training with us for a while!"

"Wow, what's that Pokemon?" Ashlie gasped, and she scanned her Rotom Phone onto Rosie, seeing what a Sylveon was, "WOW!"

"Say Goomba, Ashlie, and Goomba's friend, since there's still a lot of time left today, how about we go to the Wild Area and catch some Pokemon?" Goh suggested while walking towards us, "I'm Goh by the way!" Zizzy introduced herself to Goh, and we started to leave, and I saw Darkrai and Leon duking it out, but I don't know where Dusk went....

Wild Area 20 minutes later/POV: Goh

Okay, so now we're hunting Dynamax Pokemon, I hope things end well!
