Could Possibly be a Whetstone!!!

Ace returned home and sat in the Hot Spring. Noivern crawled down and nudged him, "Noivern…" Ace rubbed his head and smiled, "I'm alright." Noivern licked his face and smiled, "Noiv Noivern." Ace chuckled and rubbed his ears. Noivern growled in comfort.

As the night came, Ash, Dawn, and Brock arrived.

Dawn complained, "Oh my god! How do you get up and down everyday?!" Ace looked over and smiled, "I usually jump off." Dawn was dumbfounded, "YOU WHAT?!" Ace laughed and shook his head, "Let out your Pokemon, the Hot Spring is big enough for everyone. We can watch the Moon tonight."

They did so and Ace tapped his head, "Dawn, I left two Eggs in the house, can you go get them?" Dawn blinked, "Oh. Okay." as she left, "I'll be right back, Piplup!" Piplup patted her chest, "Pip~"

Ace grabbed Piplup by the head and turned her to him, "Huh." Piplup was dazed, "Lup?" Ace threw her into the water, "Stop making noise and get in the water." Piplup popped up, "Pip! Pip Piplup! Piplup!!" Ace rolled his eyes and ignored her.

Everyone else got in the water and Ash smiled, "Ahh! This is great!" Pikachu floated by, "Pika…~"

Suddenly there was a scream, "AHHH!" They looked back as Dawn ran out, "Oh! Ace! Your Pokemon hatched! I'm sorry, I didn't! Ahh!" Ace looked at her and rolled his eyes, "Well, nothing can be done now… They'll only recognize the first person they see!" Dawn was dumbfounded, looking at the two little guys.

A Cutiefly and Eevee.

Ash looked at Brock, who shook his head, "Ace is getting better at fooling people…" Ash nodded and then said, "Huh? Misty and May also have an Eevee." Brock looked at Ash knowingly…

Sooner or later, they can line up and show off all the Eeveelutions!

Ace sighed, "You have to take responsibility, Dawn. These Pokemon will only recognize you, if I take them away, they'll cry!" Dawn looked upset, "I'm so sorry, Ace! I didn't mean to… They just hatched when I touched them!" Ace smiled, "It's alright, Dawn. But you can't let them down! You have to train these little guys well!"

Dawn waved and said, "But I'm a Coordinator!" Ace nodded, "Yes, the stronger a Pokemon is, the more moves it can use. The more moves it can use, the more performances you can make. And the more performances you can make…" Dawn gasped, "The better show you can perform! Wow! So that's how it is!"

Ace nodded, Wife #3 is a bit dumb. That's okay. She was fooled like this, sooner or later, this strategy will become mainstream.

After all, if you one shot the other Pokemon in the Contest Battle, what can the judge say? I'm afraid it's only 'You win' right?!

Dawn swung a fist, "Well train hard and crush everyone! Haha!" Ace smiled, she's violent. Ace was thinking that Dawn just might be his favorite! Though, Misty was very violent too.

Hmm… It's a tie.

Ash muttered, "Crush everyone? You don't even know how to battle…" Dawn pulled his ear, "ASH! KETCHUM! AHHH!" before she jumped into the Hot Spring, fighting him in the water.

Ace chuckled as he watched them, he turned to the babies, putting two bowls of milk. They licked the milk and smiled happily. Ace looked at the sky and sighed before closing his eyes.

A bit far away, Paul looked at Ursaring, holding the Red Peat Block, "Are you ready?" Ursaring nodded and Paul tossed it over.

Ursaring grabbed it and said in surprise, "Ursa?!" before lighting up. Paul watched flatly as a new Pokemon appeared. But it wasn't what he was thinking. He looked at the Ursaluna picture before looking at the Ursaluna in front of him.

Paul clenched his fists, muttering, "Thanks…" before taking a good look at Bloodmoon Ursaluna, "How do you feel?" Ursaluna felt his paws and said, "Ursaluna!" before roaring as moonlight shone on him, healing him slightly.

Paul wrote it down as Ursaluna turned to a cliff face, the Blood Moon on his forehead lit up and a beam was blasted from it, blowing a hole in the cliff. Paul paused, "Special Attacker?" Ursaluna looked happy and Paul said coldly, "Continue training. You need to get used to your new body. If I'm not wrong, you should be better at Special Attacks now, right?"

Ursaluna nodded and waved his arm, "Ursa." Paul frowned, "What?" Ursaluna punched the wall hard and also broke it. Paul thought about it and muttered, "We have work to do… That guy probably knows more…"

The next day

Ace stretched and went for a run as Ash, Dawn, and Brock followed him. They watched Ace jump from the cliff and land on the ground with dumbfounded faces. Ace looked up at them, "Come on."

Ash jumped off, "Come on, guys!" Dawn trembled but was pushed forward by Noivern, Brock jumped off and Ace looked at them, rolling his eyes as Dawn screamed her lungs out.

He caught them all before smiling, "Awake now?" They all had bright eyes, "Yeah!" Ace rubbed his nose and nodded, "Good! Time to warm up!" as he ran off.

5 hours later

Ash was breathing heavily while Brock leaned on a wall, as for Dawn…

She was face down on the street, laid out.

Nurse Joy walked by with a Blissey, shaking her head, "Training with Ace? You three are brave! Blissey, Heal Bell." Blissey shook her hand as Dawn jumped up, "WOAH!" even flexing.

Ace rolled his eyes and smiled, "Warm up is over." Dawn nearly fell over, "That was a warm up?!" Ace nodded and said, "Of course! Normally I train for another 5 hours with weights. But since Ash has a Chall-huh?" He looked up before smiling wryly, "Looks like you'll be postponed again, Ash…"

Ash was stunned and a Garchomp landed on the square. Cynthia got off, flicking her hair, "Hey!" Ace crossed his arms, "What happened now?" Cynthia smiled, "I came to battle again."

Ace looked at Garchomp as Noivern grew instantly, nudging Garchomp affectionately. 

Brock fell to his knees, punching the ground.

Ash asked in shock, "You! You're the Champion?!" Cynthia looked at him and smiled, "Oh, Ash. I haven't seen you since you were this big!" as she made a gesture. Dawn gasped, "You're Cynthia! You know Ash!? And Ace!? Wow! I'm a Big fan! You're so cool!" 

Cynthia covered her cheek, "Oh… Oh!" Ace scratched his cheek, "You want to fight? Again?" as he looked at Garchomp and understood.

[Garchomp Lv99]

Ace's lips twitched, did he look like a whetstone???
