Ash: Pikachu! We're almost home! Pallet town is just around the corner!
Pikachu: Pikaaaaa!!!
Ash has split ways with Cilan and Iris returning back to Pallet town while the other two companions decided to visit Johto so they could follow their dreams. Iris wanting to become a dragon master and Cilan becoming a connoisseur.
As Ash approached his house he noticed a large grey truck parked just outside his front door sending confused thoughts into his mind.
With Pikachu also determined to find out an answer to their question the pair charged towards their home questioning the presence of the moving truck. Bursting through the front door Ash called out to his mother in an exhausted voice.
Ash: Mum! I'm finally home!
Delia: Ash! What a surprise that you're home so soon!
Ignoring her positive greeting, Ash struck Delia with a tight hug long awaited by his mother.
Ash: I've missed you so much mum! However.... I failed to win the Unova league like I said I would.
Realising that he only managed to reach the top eight, Ash's face dropped in slight disappointment which Delia caught sight of quickly.
Delia: Dear, It doesn't matter if you won the league or only reached the top eight because I'll always be proud of what you have achieved.
Ash: Thank you mum... But I do have one question to ask.
Delia: I presume your question involves the truck outside?
Ash: Mhm. Why is it outside?
Delia: During your journey in Unova I had time to think about our future plans. It consisted of staying here in Kanto or starting fresh in another region, and that's when Professor Oak suggested the Kalos region.
Ash: The Kalos region?!... That also means we'll be leaving Pallet Town and Kanto as a whole.
Delia: Correct. I thought I would interpret the Professor's suggestion and decide on both of our behalves on moving to the Kalos region.
Ash: So when are we leaving?
Delia: In two days time. It will be a tiring journey, but once we arrive at our new home I can safely say it would of been worth it
Ash: I hope so, but what will happen to my other Pokemon? Will they stay with Professor Oak?
Delia: Actually, each house established in Vaniville Town will also provide ten acres of land allowing plenty of room for your Pokemon to roam around.
Ash: That's a lot of space! And now we're able to experience a new region with all my other Pokemon.
Pikachu: Pika pil
Ash: Pikachu you really are excited!
With the adrenaline rushing throughout his small yellow body, Pikachu couldn't contain his excitement resulting in Mr.Mime having to use Psychic to calm the furry electric mouse down. While Pikachu was slowly calming down in Mr.Mime's arms, Delia inspected her son's clothing and bag.
Delia: Oh that's right! I almost forgot to inform you that Professor Oak, Gary and Tracey will all be coming round for dinner soon.
Ash: You've got to be kidding me... Why Gary? He stressed me out more than my battles do.
Delia: I can tell you've had quite the journey by how roughened up your clothes and bag is.
Ash: I participated in many battles, so that would explain how damaged my clothes and bag are.
Delia: Well why don't I take your bag and clean your dirty washing while you change upstairs into your night clothes.
Ash: Okay mum... Whatever you wish.
Ash grabbed the straps wrapped around his shoulders, then swung his bag out in front of his body. Rummaging through his bag he pulled out his badge case and the Macho Brace that he won along with Pignite's assistance.
Delia: That should add eight more gym badges to your large collection.
Ash: That's right! I now have forty four gym badges including my four orange island badges and seven frontier symbols.
Delia: You have achieved so much, yet you still have more to learn... Anyway. While I clean your dirty clothes and prepare dinner for our guests, go change into your night clothes.
Ash: Okay mum! Pikachu lets go!
Pikachu: Pika!
The Kantonian immediately sprinted up the flight of stairs as Delia watched in delight to see her son back. Entering his room, Ash felt a calm beginners vibe as he placed his first step into his bedroom. He took of his cap and gently placed it onto his bed, then made made his way over to his desk where he kept all of his achievements he had gained ever since he started his journey six years ago.
Ash carefully placed his Unova badge case next to his set of prized possessions from Sinnoh. Shortly after he placed the orange and red Macho Brace next to the gym badges gazing upon what he gained in Unova satisfyingly.
Once he had changed into his night clothes consisting of a black tee-shirt and grey shorts, he rushed downstairs only to bump into the Professor, Gary and Tracey,
