“ It's a cold, flat world out there. ”

Ash and Peeks both looked on with awe when the Luxury Ball popped open! “ Hey, check it out! Bentley evolved, too!? ”

Peeks hopped off Ash's shoulder, vaulting down to greet the Simisage. “ 𝘚𝘦𝘦𝘮𝘴 𝘸𝘦'𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘰𝘵𝘩 𝘭𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘶𝘱.ᐟ 𝘓𝘰𝘰𝘬𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘨𝘰𝘰𝘥, 𝘱𝘢𝘭. ”

Ash smiled at the exchange. “ What a coincidence, huh? ”
February 17, 2026 at 2:35 AM
“ 𝘙𝘢𝘪𝘪𝘪-𝘢𝘪.ᐟ ”

Peeks cooed happily. He then grumbled, realizing the gadget secured to his tail was turned off. A brief pulse of static changed that. This time, it translated his words for him.

“ 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘣𝘦𝘵 𝘐 𝘥𝘪𝘥.ᐟ 𝘛𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘴𝘰 𝘥𝘪𝘥 𝘐.

We're doing great! Living it up, and stronger than ever! See for yourself!

[And, he's accompanied by... ah! Raichu!? He looks happy to see Cilan.]

A thoughtful hum and nod.

“ Right. Unless you're a type specialist, that's the best way to go. Rock, Ice, Psychic, Electric, and Steel-types will be your biggest snags. The first four are super-effective against Flying-types, and Steel's immune to Poison attacks. You following, so far? ”

“ It's more that you can find Zubat in almost any cave. It's an inside joke among trainers. ” Ash chuckled, and poked a finger at Zuty. “ But, you've got the right idea! Any Pokémon can stand out, no matter how rare or common they are! ”

He grinned at the Pokémon's undeterred enthusiasm.

. . . uh, yeah! What Dawn said.

You afraid of a few lil swears? Bitchmade behavior tbh.

“ 𝙏𝘼𝙆𝙀 𝙏𝙃𝙄𝙎, 𝙈𝘼𝙍𝙓.ᐟ 𝙍𝘼𝘼𝘼𝘼𝘼𝙂𝙃.ᐟ.ᐟ ”

An earth-splitting blade spun and carved through the skies, headed for the malicious jester! Worse yet, the Rex Spinner's spiraling, cutting motion could repel 𝘼𝙉𝙔𝙊𝙉𝙀 attempting to capitalize on this life-or-death charge!

The kunai buried in the earth carved a steadily widening crater with its drilling motion, leaving a concave collapse to pull in Rick, or anyone who dared tread near!

On Z's command, Ash 𝙔𝘼𝙉𝙆𝙀𝘿 the sword out of the earth, launching himself and his Rex towards the airborne Marx at full velocity! 🔽
February 16, 2026 at 2:34 PM
“ Z . . . ! ” Ash grunted, as they spun, and spun, and spun. The rush was stomach-turning, but he refused to surrender! “ We're headed for Marx! ”

The orbiting parts of Z were thrown into a spiral by Ash's gambit. The digital Pokémon chirped.

“ 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 . . . 𝐑𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 . . . 𝐍𝐎𝐖. ”

“ 𝙒𝙊𝘼𝙃.ᐟ.ᐣ ”

Rip Roarin' Rick was right on his flank! There was no time to avoid the rambunctious rodent. Ash had to improvise!

“ Fine. 𝙇𝙀𝙏'𝙎 𝘿𝙊 𝙏𝙃𝙄𝙎.ᐟ ”

Ash drew his 𝐒𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐃 — The kunai formed of water from his Greninja's 𝐈𝐀𝐈 𝐆𝐈𝐑𝐈 — and stabbed it into the road beside his Rex Spinner! 🔽
February 16, 2026 at 2:34 PM
“ Heheh! Sorry, both of ya. But I saw a chance, and I took it! ”

Ash grinned and brushed his index over the bridge of his nose, watching Knuckle Joe and Tsuki alike recoil from his sweeping laser. “ That's the luck of the— ”

“ 𝐃𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑. 𝐃𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐄𝐑. 𝐀𝐍𝐆𝐑𝐘 𝐅𝐔𝐂𝐊𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐇𝐀𝐌𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐎𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐆. ”

“ Maybe we could do Water-type Wednesday . . . ”
February 16, 2026 at 1:23 AM
The Poké Ball and Beast Ball popped open at once!

“ Charizard! Naganadel! I choose you! ”

Two large winged beasts appeared— a li zard with orange scales, horns, and a blazing tail, accompanied by an alien-esque hornet with cool hues and poisonous stingers!

“ 𝘈𝘺𝘰𝘰𝘰.ᐟ.ᐟ ”

“ 𝘎𝘳𝘰𝘢𝘢𝘢𝘩.ᐟ.ᐟ ”
February 15, 2026 at 6:11 PM
“ Alright. Then you can see for yourself! ”

Ash tossed two spherical devices into the air! One was a basic Poké Ball, with red and gray patterns united by a darker latch; the other looked almost alien, with an outer shell resembling the night sky, with light webbing surrounding it.

The baddie isn't a 𝙍𝙀𝘼𝙇 baddie.

That's a relief.
February 15, 2026 at 2:23 PM
Ah, I gotcha! Good on you, Susie.

I like ya as is, would hate if we had to fight for real at some point.

But, yeah. They're kinda similar. Really evil organization, but I got saddled with the three stooges because they wanted to steal Peeks.

Kind of like those two guys you complain about.

Who're the Sungondees?

[⁉️]

Alright, alright. You got me. That was good.
February 14, 2026 at 11:19 PM
“ Zubat are Poison and Flying-types, and they're a lil frail, but very fast. So aerial attacks are probably your go-to — that and their Supersonic, which can confuse opponents.

You'll wanna keep track of type match-ups, too. ”
February 14, 2026 at 3:20 PM
“ Yeah, that's pretty much the first Pokémon I'd expect. ”

Blunt, with a grin cracking through. That wasn't to say he was admonishing the choice.

“ But hey, good for you! You've got a new friend. Must be exciting for you too, eh, Zuty? ” He addressed Zuty, just as he had his Noivern, before. 🔽
