"you know, there are other things you can admire," May teased Ash who was staring proudly at his two badges that were in his case. Ash blushed, put his case down and looked at May.

"You saying there's something else I should be admiring?" Ash asked.

"Well..." May began and she was pulled against Ash and kissed. She parted her lips and he slid his tongue into her mouth.

"Hmmmm, the behavior of you girls has changed slighted since we left behind Drew and those other boys," Cilan commented.

"Do they have to suck face?" Iris said and made a disgusted face.

"Ash," Dawn pouted. Ash released May's lips, allowing the brown haired girl to start kissing him under the neck. He pulled Dawn over to him and lip locked with her in a similar fashion.

'Cilan is right. Ash, or his aura, is seen a threat and Ash's instincts are kicking in. He's remind Dawn and May who is the superior male...and if I tell Ash about...' Anabel thought until Axew started making noise near Ash's backpack. Ash turned, along with everyone else to see that Ash's egg was glowing and shaking.

"My egg," Ash said and came over to the egg.

"The glowing means that it's getting ready to hatch," Cilan remarked.

"Well Axew, looks like you'll get to see your first pokemon egg hatching and you'll be a big brother to that pokemon," Iris said. This excited Axew, but this excitement lead to the pokemon tripping, sending the egg flying down the hill.

Ahhhh!" Ash shouted as he chased after his egg. He saw, at the bottom of the hill, a sharp rock and his eyes widened.

"Pikachu, Use Quick Attack to catch that Egg!" Ash shouted. Pikachu leapt into action and was able to catch the egg and land safely.

"You two ok?" Ash asked, Pikachu put a paw up in the air to show that they was fine and the egg was safe. Ash breathed a sigh of relief and turned to Iris.

"Sorry Ash," Iris apologized with Axew mimicking Iris's apology.
Ash took several calming breaths before saying, "it's ok, the egg is fine."

The egg then glowed again and finally hatched, revealing a Scraggy.


"it's a Scraggy," Cilan announced and Ash scanned the pokemon with his Pokedex.

Hey Scraggy, I'm Ash and this is Pikachu," Ash introduced. In response, Scraggy used a Leer attack and then used Headbutt, but Pikachu dodged the attack.

"Why is Scraggy so aggressive?" Angie asked. "I don't ever remember a pokemon hatching and ready to fight right off the bat."

"Ok, you want us to introduce ourselves through a battle then have it your way Scraggy," Ash said and checked the moves that the Scraggy had. "Hmmmm, only Headbutt and Leer."

"Only Leer and Headbutt?" Iris asked in shock.

"Hey, your Axew only has Scratch and Dragon Rage and it can't control Dragon Rage," Ash fired back.

"Besides, Scraggy just hatched. It only knows two moves," Cilan said.

"Yeah," May and Dawn said in unison.

"Still though, Scraggy shouldn't want to fight now," Angie put in.

"Maybe Unova baby pokemon are tougher than most," Ash said. "Ok, Scraggy, hit Pikachu with Leer and follow it up with Headbutt."

Scraggy used the two moves, but they did little or had no effect on Pikachu.

"Pikachu, use a Thunderbolt attack, but don't go overboard," Ash said and Pikachu attack, the move made Scraggy move back.

"You think you can keep going?" Ash asked Scraggy.who got back up and looked ready to keep going.

"I can't believe that Scraggy wants to keep battling," Cilan said.

"You've got a troublesome little brother Axew," Iris said.

"That's Piplup's little brother too you know," Dawn said.

"I still think that Scraggy is acting different from all the baby pokemon I've dealt with," Angie said.

"Ok, everyone, come on out and meet our new friend!" Ash called out and Pidove, Snivy, Oshawot, and Tepig all come out of their pokeball's. They received the new member of their team positively, but Scraggy Headbutted Pidove, shocking the small bird pokemon.

Things got progressively worse when Oshawot came over to Scraggy who Headbutted him, and the water pokemon attacked, harshly. This caused all of the other pokemon to try and separate the two. Scraggy Headbutted Oshawot, separated the water type from it's shell. Scraggy stood on Oshawot's shell, daring it to take it back.

Oshawot, seeing red, blasted Scraggy with Water Gun, pushing scraggy off of its shell and allowing Oshawot to reclaim his shell.

"You done now , scraggy?" Ash asked and Scraggy attacked Tepig.

"He's going after everyone," Anabel said.

"Yes, but Scraggy's Headbutts have a weak flavor," Cilan remarked.

Scraggy, seeing Snivy sunning herself on a rock, tried to Headbutt her, but she move and Scraggy Headbutted the rock.

Scraggy turned and tried again, but Snivy used her vines to hold the pokemon at bay. Eventually, Scraggy tripped and fell on its face.

'Had enough now," Ash asked dafter coming over to Scraggy who Headbutted Ash.

"Maybe that roll Scraggy took did something?" May offered.

"No, eggs can roll as long as they don't crash into sharp rocks...Scraggy is just overly aggressive."

"What is that?" Dawn asked nervously.

"That's a Galvantula," Cilan answered and Axew hid within iris's hair.

Galvantula , turned to the frightened Scraggy and waited. Scraggy shook in fear before regaining his nerve and to everyone's shock, Scraggy Headbutted Galvantula .

"That was a foolish move," Cilan said.

"Ash, get craggy out of there before he hurts himself," Anabel advised. as nodded, but before he could act, Galvantula used first Electro Ball, then used Electroweb, and ended with Pin Missile.

"Pikachu!" Ash shouted and Pikachu used Thunderbolt to drive away Galvantula.

"You stubborn pokemon," ash said affectionately to his hurt Scraggy.

"Iris, think you can..." Anabel asked.

"I'm on it," Iris said and went to gather herbs for some medicine.

Scraggy glared down all the Galvantula that were around him. He was going to take them on all at once. They were about to attack, but a Thunderbolt from Pikachu took one out that was the closest to Scraggy.

"Don't let them hurt Scraggy!" Ash shouted and Pidove, Snivy, Tepig, Oshawot, and Pikachu attacked.

The battle looked to be on Ash's side, but the Galvantula re-organized themselves.

"Anchor pokemon out, now!" Anabel shouted.

"Mamoswine!" Dawn called.

"Blaziken!" May shouted.

"Darmanitan!" Anabel released.

"Luxio!" Angie followed her sisters. Luxio couldn't be considered a true anchor pokemon, but it was her first and her highest leveled pokemon.

The battle turned again as Ash and the girls beat back the Galvantula to their hiding places.

'Ok, he's got some quirks to him, but Scraggy will be a good addition to my team,' Ash thought to himself with a smile.

"I'm not leaving Unova until I get Dawn to come with me," Kenny said.

"Face it, they are with Ash and you can't do anything about it," Harley said.

"Or maybe, you can," a voice said and the three boys turned to see N standing there smiling at them.

"Who are you?" Drew asked.

"Just consider me someone that wants to help you get your girl. You see. that pretty lilac girl is an empath like me and I believe that we're meant for each other," N said.

"Oh please, I know how this story goes. You are actually working for some evil organization like Team rocket," Harley said and N glared at him.

"Just think about it...I could help you get your girl if you help me get my empath," N offered.

"We'll have to think about it," Drew said and N smirked. They would make the right decision.

Ok, let me now what you thought of this.

Ok, Angie has five...what should be her sixth pokemon?

And, I'm still not convinced that Ash should allow more into the aura sisters. However, should Misty at least show up to mess everything up further or stay home? And, keep those reviews and suggestions coming.
