In an 'ash travels with gary fanfic', perhaps they are on a mission to discover some ancient Pokémon secrets. They travel through different environments, from forests to mountains. Along their journey, they meet old friends and rivals, and their relationship evolves from just being competitors to real friends who support each other in battles and other challenges.
Well, it could be about Ash and Gary being on an adventure when Gary suddenly has an asthma attack. Ash has to use his knowledge of Pokémon to find a way to help Gary, like finding a plant that has medicinal properties. Maybe they're in a forest and Ash sends out his Bulbasaur to search for the right plant.
The main characters are obviously Ash and Gary. Ash is the determined and kind - hearted Pokémon trainer we all know, and Gary is his rival - turned - traveling companion in this fanfic.
The plot could be as simple as Ash training an Electrivire in secret. When Gary challenges Ash to a battle, Ash unleashes the Electrivire, which is much more powerful than Gary expected. Pikachu could also be involved by taunting Gary's Pokémon during the battle, adding to the overall scare factor.
In this kind of fanfiction, perhaps Gary has some extreme jealousy towards Ash. Maybe he kidnaps Ash because he wants to prove himself superior in the Pokémon world. He could be tired of always being in Ash's shadow and thinks this is a way to get the upper hand.
It could be that Ash and Pikachu are trying to play a prank on Gary. Pikachu jumps out and scares Gary who is with his Electrivire. Then Gary might get angry at first but then they end up having a friendly battle or competition after the initial scare.
Well, one possibility could be that Ash gets into a really dangerous situation in a battle against a super - strong and evil Pokémon trainer. Gary, who has always been his rival but deep down respects him, steps in at the last moment. He uses his unique Pokémon team and battle strategies to fend off the enemy and save Ash. Maybe Gary has been secretly following Ash's journey and realizes that Ash is the key to maintaining the balance in the Pokémon world, so he can't let him be defeated.
The plot could start with Gary getting the torso burn in a mysterious incident. Ash, being the kind - hearted trainer he is, decides to take care of Gary. This could bring out a softer side of Gary as he has to rely on Ash. As Gary recovers, they might start to understand each other better and form a stronger friendship that was previously overshadowed by their rivalry.
Character development is a key characteristic. As the story progresses, we see Ash and Gary change and grow, not just as Pokémon trainers, but also in how they view each other. There can be a lot of emotional depth, from anger and jealousy in their rivalry to understanding and even love in their friendship.
Maybe Ash will encounter new and rare Pokémon in the regions this time. He could also meet some old friends and have epic battles together.
One possible plot idea could be that Ash and Gary are on a journey to discover a rare Pokémon. They face various challenges along the way, like rough terrains and strong wild Pokémon. Their different approaches to Pokémon training might lead to some friendly arguments but also help them learn from each other.
