Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_1086f287 | comment |
Sure, Let's Go with That: Ash assumes that Pikachu decided to join him in the Tour de Altomare race. Actually, Pikachu just slipped and fell from where he was spectating as Ash was passing by. Ash's Arc Phone notifies him that they've entered a different time zone, and offers to adjust the clock. Ash assumes that it meant adjusting its internal phone clock to show the local time zone. But since it's actually a tiny Arceus, it may have meant something different. | |

Tag Team Twins | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_10dd8619 | comment |
Tag Team Twins: Taken up to eleven or more precisely, twenty-seven, by the entire Ryuunited Kingdom a.k.a. Ash's entire contingent of the Dragonite line (excluding King Dragonite a.k.a Hugtini and the Dratini traded to May). All of them eagerly wanting to evolve, they took part in Ash's gym battle against Tate and Liza, with the twins using Mega Gardevoir and Mega Gallade and Ash using a Dratini and Dragonair, and with a little help from Mew/Dunsparce, every time one of them evolved during the battle, they'd quickly use an attack to hide themselves from view and be teleported back to Oak Ranch, and an unevolved Dratini/Dragonair would take their place. By the time the last Dratini is teleported out at the wrong time and gives the game away, the other 26 have successfully evolved all the way to Dragonite. Ash puts them all in time-out for their antics. While never actually battling, Dawn and Princess Salvia have this situation, right down to their Pokémon forms being Plusle and Minun, whose whole in-universe role is this trope. | |

Alternate Timeline: Several of these more or less collide with each other when Celebi gets controlled by the Iron Masked Marauder and told to eliminate Ash. There are repercussions when the situation stabilises, too, with Zacian retaining some memories of the alternate events. | |

David Versus Goliath | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_1b3b48f3 | comment |
David Versus Goliath: Ash's Clefairy faces Steven's Claydol, which is not only a giant version from Izabe, but is also spamming Hyper Beams. In a possible Shout-Out to the original, Clefairy hits Claydol with a pebble-sized Smack Down rock — while gravity is reversed, making Claydol fall into the sky for a Ring Out. | |

Voluntary Shapeshifting | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_1fb440a6 | comment |
Voluntary Shapeshifting: Ash has several Pokémon who know Transform, but there are also stranger examples. Ash himself, after being repeatedly turned into a Pokémon by a magic potion, seems to have developed an affinity for the form, and Jirachi's wish-granting powers will transform him again any time it's a reasonable interpretation of a wish. Whitney later tries out the potion too. Appropriately for her passion about cuteness, she becomes a Snom. Dawn, too, tries the shapeshifting potion and becomes a Plusle. Princess Salvia does the same and becomes a Minun. Iris becomes a Zoroark — meaning that she can then illusion herself as any other form. Tiny Shiny Rayquaza turns out to be able to transform by picking up the Red or Blue Orbs, which will change her into a tiny Shiny Primal Groudon or Kyogre respectively, and change back by putting them down. Ash's Unown, after becoming disconnected from the Hive Mind, is able to transform into any letter shape — and even, as it turns out, symbols in other languages, although it takes more practice. | |

Closest Thing We Got | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_213dc284 | comment |
Closest Thing We Got: When Ash catches meta-Groudon but it's still dependent on draining energy from everything around it, Ho-Oh declares himself to be "the next step up from a doctor!" and proceeds to use Sacred Ash. To be fair, the result — while a bit surprising — is a definite improvement by any reasonable measure. Meta-Groudon turns into a tiny Shiny Rayquaza. | |

Failed a Spot Check | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_21e5b9c7 | comment |
Failed a Spot Check: Ash's mother regularly supplies dango for the bird Pokémon that visits Ash's window, and never realises that rather than a Pidgey, he's feeding Zapdos. Max is excited and overwhelmed to learn that his sister has been traveling for the past two days with Ash Ketchum, who has so many Legendaries people lose count, but May hasn't seen him use any; just Pikachu, Cranidos, Croconaw, Zapdos and Zorua. Professor Juniper isn't convinced by Professor Oak's accounts of Ash's abnormal relationship with reality, and the fact that Ash is carrying a canine-looking Pokémonnote (Zygarde) doesn't change that. | |

Adaptation Deviation: Some canon Pokémon have their team members switched around. Ash's canon Bulbasaur and Squirtle are caught by Brock and Misty respectively. Team Rocket is the one who obtains Ash's Muk. Brock's Croagunk goes to Ash and his Happiny is hatched by Grovyle. | |

Prophetic Fallacy | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_256eaa53 | comment |
Prophetic Fallacy: Grings sees himself in the future stealing the Time Ripple, and thinks that he therefore can't lose. It's actually an illusion created by a Zoroark. For bonus points, the illusory scene is created after he's arrested, and his protests that it can't end this way inform Zoroark of exactly what illusion to create. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: While battling an Azumarill, Ash's Clefairy uses Taunt and calls her mother a "Pikablu". Whitney presents two Marill and invites Marilyn to guess, if she can, which one hatched as a Marill, vs which one hatched as an Azurill and evolved (Marilyn can't tell). Marill was introduced in the generation 2 games, as was the breeding mechanic, but Azurill was introduced in generation 3, so it is indeed possible to either hatch Marill directly (generation 2) or hatch Azurill and evolve it (generation 3+). Whitney's Miltank has a reputation from the game as invokedThat One Boss, with its Rollout attack putting an end to many inexperienced teams. Here, she tells Miltank to "roll it out" — and Miltank rolls a trolley out of the next room, bearing Regigigas. Goh makes an appearance, and is stated to have rescued a Pidgey from under a truck, after which the Pidgey started hanging around regularly. For some reason, the Pidgey is very attentive whenever he talks about his desire to catch Mew as a starting Pokémon. The events of Pikachu's Rescue Adventure have a lot of shout-outs to Pokémon Mystery Dungeon. There are a lot of gags relating to Saphroneth's other famous Pokémon fic Ashes of the Past: Both fics have a Master of Illusion-focused trainer traveling with Ash and Co. In the other fic it was Brock; in this fic, it's Ash himself. Pikachu starts off both fics knowing a Fighting move that highlights his status as a Pintsized Powerhouse. In AotP it was Force Palm; in this fic it's Sky Uppercut. This isn't the first time Saphroneth has written an Absol being unable to tell whether or not they'll get turned down with their disaster sense. Team Rocket possessing an airship. In AotP, they had a large cargo plane. Here, they repossess Lawrence III's Hikokyu airship, which they plan to keep far away from Ash. When asked about nicknames, Max says that he can't think of any good ones. The Max in AotP is The Nicknamer. Arceus turning out to be in the GS Ball. When one of them captures a fire-fighting Squirtle, its attacks are several times more powerful than they should be. May and Max see Brendan battling in the LaRousse Battle Tower, and think that they ought to know him from somewhere. He makes a return appearance at the Ever Grande Conference and faces off against Ash. Pikachu eventually learns the move Surf. As in, he learns to conjure a surfboard made of water. Later, Squirtle uses Surf in practically the same way. When Lance sees tiny Shiny Rayquaza learning to Mega-Evolve, he speculates that Ash is actually too strong to join the Elite Four. This may be a reference to the Smogon competitive battling website banning Mega Rayquaza even in its most inclusive "Uber" tier. Thanks to Mew and Celebi, a few Hisuian Pokémon show up: an Alternate Timeline shows Ash having a Wyrdeer, the aforementioned two give Professor Oak a Hisuian Growlithe to study, and Ho-Oh reincarnates the King of PokeAtlantis into a Hisuian Zorua named Aten. Dawn has, in canon, a non-biological twin in Princess Salvia. When Dawn takes the potion, she becomes a Plusle, and later Salvia becomes a Minun. Barry manages to defeat Cresselia by using a combination of Leech Seed and Toxic — which in generation 1 games, due to a bug, caused Leech Seed to drain health faster as the Toxic damage increased (effectively doubling the Toxic damage). As in Canon, Ash gets involved with the Pokémon School in Alola. This time, however, he's a teacher, not a student. May's Arcanine melts sand into glass and splashes through it as part of a Contest Appeal, but finds it odd to call that a splash, because, "I feel like that would just mean nothing was happening." | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: In-Universe when Eevee performs in her first Contest. Everyone can see how she creates attacks of different elements paired with illusions of the matching evolutionary forms, but only Ash can understand her accompanying song. The Ryuunited Kingdom is a pun, if you are aware that "Ryu" means "dragon". After encountering a trio of mean girls, Iris announces that she might be about to learn Imperial Rage. "I know it's normally just called Outrage, but I'm that angry." While Outrage is the English translation used in the games, the original Japanese name was 逆鱗, which translates more directly as "Imperial Wrath". | |

Adapted Out: Several of Ash's Pokémon don't appear... since they turn out to actually be Mew pretending to be those Pokémon. This includes Butterfree, Primeape, and Lapras, for a very abridged list. Ash doesn't catch any Tauros in this fic. He catches a whole load of Dratini instead. The TRio are effectively adapted out of Sinnoh by the simple expedient of being Whitney's replacement Gym Leaders. | |

Stable Time Loop | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_37690091 | comment |
Stable Time Loop: Not that Celebi seems to be all that concerned about stability, but giving Pidgeymon to Ash impresses Mew so much that Mew later begs Celebi to go back and do it. Also, there's when Celebi helps Ash's Zorua, disguised as a Zoroark, disguised as one of Koga's ninja, to go back in time and give Ash his own egg. Also due to Celebi, Manaphy effectively ends up hatching several weeks before they encounter the point in Ash's journey where they first meet its original owner. The Jewel Of Life incident is meant to be one... until Nickit just retrieves the Jewel in the present. Arceus forces the issue anyway, so Nickit just retrieves it again in the past. Princess Salvia's desire to become a Coordinator is solved this way, as she spends a day as a Minun along with Dawn, then the same day pretending to be Dawn, then the same day actually doing what she was meant to be in the first place. | |

Death Is Cheap | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_37fcf16 | comment |
Death Is Cheap: At least, with enough Legendary Pokémon involved. When Ash is killed by Mewtwo's Psystrike, there are Pokémon arguing over who gets to revive him. Ho-oh insists that his own reincarnation ability is superior to Xerneas' ability to restore life, since Xerneas can only fix someone who was killed with no other injuries. Xerneas ignores him and revives Ash anyway — but Ho-oh was already powering up, so he reincarnates someone else entirely, namely the clone of Amber Fuji. Later in Movie 3, Ho-Oh revives a not-quite-dead Mrs. Hale as a Mew. During Movie 5, Zygarde enables the Latios inside the Soul Dew to communicate with his children. | |

Wrong Assumption | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_38072b53 | comment |
Wrong Assumption: Marcus is established as believing he lives in a Terminally Dependent Society that will die without the Jewel of Life in a case of No Ontological Inertia. Arceus makes it clear that holding the Jewel of Life has infused life into Michina and that it will continue to prosper both through lingering influence of the Jewel and Arceus's will. | |

Mundane Solution | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_3c7022ce | comment |
Mundane Solution: The GS Ball is all but impregnable to all attacks and any attempts to make it open. Then the move Roar forces its inhabitant out via the switch-out rule. Ash, Brock, and Misty struggle to come up with a Pokémon who can transport them all to Cinnabar Island. Suicune could take one of them, but only if it's her turn to come out the shared Safari Ball. Zapdos could carry someone, but Misty is "allergic to being electrocuted". Goldeen could tow her, but that would be exhausting for both of them. Geodude probably doesn't have the endurance to pull a surfboard that far. When a volcano is erupting, Entei (who can make volcanos erupt by barking) tries to stop it by barking in reverse (".foow"). When it starts back up again, Suicune tries to purify the magma into water. When it starts up again, Skitty pre-empts the eruption and converts it into a Fairy-type rain of sparkles. Despite all their efforts, though, the volcano continues. Then Marshadow breaks the machine Team Magma was using. Various Legendary Pokémon are discussing ways to drain an entire lake to retrieve a Pokéball from the bottom, when Charizard turns up with the ball, having simply used Dive. | |

Flat "What" | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_3c88d6c2 | comment |
Flat "What": Very, very, VERY common in this fic, mostly in reaction to Ash's antics. Jasmine knows Ash is a bit crazy, but when hyperspeed Snorlax whip-cracks her Steelix into the gym floor, she still blurts out, "I'm sorry but what?" This is Clair's first reaction to Ash himself, magically transformed into an Absol, participating in her Gym Challenge. After taking a moment to collect her thoughts, she repeats it, but with a question mark. And then again when Ash compliments her Dragonair on the Thunder attack that he just shrugged off. Max (not Maple) sees the glittery aftermath of the Gang stopping the Eruption on Route 113. Bruno has a similar reaction upon seeing Ash's shapeshifting Unown: "I'm sorry, but what." And Gym Leader Byron seeing Ash respond to Skarmory with a shiny Yveltal. Lance has seen, and heard about, quite a bit of Ash's unusual circumstances. He was there when Ash caught Ho-Oh, he has fought Ash at the Silver Conference and seen the ridiculous things his team can do. But still, when he sees tiny Shiny Rayquaza learning to Mega-Evolve with some teaching from Big Rayquaza, his reaction is, "What is happening." Without a question mark. Even Lucario has this reaction when Mew mentions teaching Ash moves. But perhaps the crowning achievement is when Mew gets a Flat What from Arceus. By making a tiny shiny Arceus, to serve Ash as a mobile phone. | |

Crack Fic: From Mew teaching Pokémon moves that should be impossible for them to learn, just because it's funny and he doesn't see why not, to Legendary Pokémon arguing over which one has the best resurrection powers, to Ho-Oh ordering takeout (delivered by Pidgeys) while waiting and waiting for Ash to work out that he's supposed to come to the Tin Tower and challenge him... As is typical of Saphroneth, though, the zany premises are then handled more or less logically. | |

Achievements in Ignorance | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_57b74bd4 | comment |
Achievements in Ignorance: During Rudy's target-shooting challenge during the Orange League, Ash mentions that he also destroyed the big Magikarp-shaped explosive bonus target. When a confused Rudy says he doesn't have a big Magikarp-shaped bonus target, Ash realizes he just beat Team Rocket. Again. Mew attempts to teach Goldeen Levitate, which is an ability rather than a move. Heracross is puzzled, but Mew quickly silences him. Grovyle learns Grass Shuriken while at a ninja training camp — even though they weren't trying to teach him that, and he wasn't trying to learn it, and no one even knew that a Grass-typed version of Water Shuriken could exist. Pretty much everyone takes Aten's attempts to be a homicidal monster as being anything from hilarious to ignoring them entirely, but Whitney takes the cake by finding his endless attempts to kill her even more adorable, which makes him try harder... Ash repeatedly defeats Team Galactic by simply being in the right place at the wrong time (for them), but the most ridiculous moment comes when Team Galactic sets everything up for capturing Dialga and Palkia, only to evacuate when he arrives. He enters the still open portal, assuming that Arceus had just absent-mindedly left the Pillar unlocked after the Michina incident, cleans up their equipment, then effectively locks the door after setting the alarm, leaving the actual key inside. He never actually fights any of Team Galactic, and in fact has no idea they were there. Ash has read a story before about a large diamond being found on the moon, so it's quite reasonable for his lunar-empowered Snivy to use Diamond Storm. Afterward, however, Arc informs him that the story has no known scientific basis, causing him to apologise. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_5d9bdbb1 | comment |
World's Strongest Man: Grand Champions are this for each region. Lance proves that he deserves the title when he beats Ash, whose team includes Crowned Sword Zacian (which should be a hard counter to dragons), even if it was only by a single Pokémon. Ash himself technically qualifies after he defeats the Hoenn Elite Four and Steven after winning the Ever Grande Conference, and then later on the Unova Elite Four and Alder after winning the Vertess Conference. The only reason he's not officially this is because he turned the title down both times. Cynthia proves herself worthy as well, also beating Ash by a single Pokémon. It shows — for example, her Togekiss manages to dodge moves by being very good at sensing kindness and telling other things from the shape of that kindness, and her Roserade went up against Galarian Moltres. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_60fb097 | comment |
Dick Dastardly Stops to Cheat: Darkrai takes on this role when a gathering of Legendary Pokémon come together for what is recognizably an episode of Wacky Races using ice sleds. The course gets filled with Darkrai cardboard cutouts, pit traps, and false tunnels that are actually solid walls. Reshiram and Zekrom follow a false arrow, and in the process, interrupt what could have been a Darkrai victory. Happens again during a hot air balloon race, with them being interrupted this time by a carrier Pidgey. | |

After a section break, Ash is discussing their move selection and training plans. May also count as a Bait-and-Switch, since it appears that Latios' "final decision" was in Ash's favor all along. | |

Understatement: Iris is dumbfounded to discover that her school lecturers, when telling the class about Ash Ketchum, were not exaggerating but understating it. Most likely because Ash doesn't advertise all the ridiculousness he comes across, such as Meta-Groudon being reincarnated as Tiny Shiny Rayquaza, or teaching Gible to fly by reasoning that someday there might be a Gible-shaped aircraft. | |

Adaptational Early Appearance | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_723606c4 | comment |
Adaptational Early Appearance: Ash manages to meet a good portion of the Legendaries he would have met over the course of his travels before he even sets off on his journey. Mew plays with him throughout his childhood. Solgaleo takes him racing against Hoopa. Silver, the young Lugia, turns up to watch TV with him. He hand-feeds Zapdos through his bedroom window. Giratina takes him through the Reverse World to dodge some inclement weather at summer camp, giving him a mirror afterward to let him contact Giratina at will. And he literally trips over Shaymin when getting out of bed on the day he becomes a trainer. During the events of the third movie, Entei uses Roar to force Zorua to return... and Arceus pops out of the GS ball, which is where he was in Saph's other fic, Ashes of the Past, but that little fact wouldn't normally be revealed for another few years. | |

Adaptation Relationship Overhaul: Whitney and Ash get along quite well, unlike their antagonistic relationship in Ashes of the Past. She even joins him on his Sinnoh journey, since Brock stayed in Kanto after finally entering a relationship with Pike Queen Lucy, and May went to Johto to follow Drew. Drew is kinder and more respectful of May than he is in canon, if slightly weirded out by her personality, performing style and overall world view (courtesy of Ash). The Ship Tease between them is also a lot less belligerent. | |

Adaptational Badass | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_736d791f | comment |
Adaptational Badass: Ash and his team. At the Silver Conference, he nearly defeats the entire Elite Four on his first try, only losing to Lance by one Pokémon after taking out his Mega Dragonite, and Lance even offers him a place on the Elite Four! During the Hoenn Grand Festival, Brock calls Lance Ash's Johto rival. Lance later decides that Ash's team (which includes a tiny Shiny Rayquaza capable of mega-evolution) may actually be too strong for the Elite Four. At the Ever Grande conference, he beat Steven, the Hoenn Grand Champion (though he turned the title down). The "he beat" is quite literal as well; he personally defeated Steven's iconic Shiny Mega Metagross, as Mega Ashbsol. Jessie, James, and Meowth have become much more competent, too. Giovanni later admits (albeit indirectly) that they're his best agents, and that in a couple of years they should be able to take on Lance. The confrontation with Rico the poacher, where they canonically had to release Weezing and Arbok, turns into a Curb-Stomp Battle, with Wobbuffet Countering a terminal velocity impact with the ground and directing the energy into Rico's Tyranitar. Meowth then warns Jessie and James to be wary in case he has a tough Pokémon as a trump card. They mention during a briefing to other Rocket agents that they consider Brandon to be an acceptable practice run for fighting Ash, with Brandon later confirming that they did challenge him. All of Ash's travel companions end up being much stronger than they would be normally. Dawn, in particular, is offered a spot as a junior gym leader for Volkner at Sunyshore. | |

Almighty Janitor: On paper, Jesse, James, and Meowth are on a dead-end job of monitoring Ash and reporting intel about him to Giovanni, along with their futile attempts to try and steal his Pokémon. In reality, they're Giovanni's most important agents because they're actively distracting Ash from going after him directly, along with giving their boss the intel to avoid Ash entirely. They're also his best agents, since they're some of the only Pokémon trainers in the world that are able to seriously challenge Ash at all. | |

It Amused Me | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_820ac351 | comment |
It Amused Me: Hoopa is bored. This is probably a bad thing for the world. Hoopa disagrees! Hoopa will save the day, or at least will have fun watching what happens when Pokémon get voluntarily, or involuntarily, or unknowingly transported across the world. Mew completely jailbreaks the Pokéball network, gets caught over and over again in different forms, and generally messes with everyone's heads, just because it's fun. Fortunately Mew doesn't seem to be malicious. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: Downplayed with Paul, but when he releases Chimchar he tells him it's because he can't bring Chimchar's full potential out and warns him that if he chooses to come back to Paul the training will be the same. He also has no issue if Chimchar finds himself a trainer who can do what he failed at... At which point Chimchar joins Ash's team. | |

Stating the Simple Solution | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_86f4f393 | comment |
Stating the Simple Solution: Darkrai's cardboard cutout is surprisingly tough, able to survive several of Mewtwo's Psystrikes despite creating a twelve-foot crater around it, until a giggling Ambertwo asks why they don't just go around. Meowth points out that, without the Red and Blue Orbs there, Teams Rocket, Magma, and Aqua have no reason to fight. Jessie and James dislike this, since they were planning on throwing a bag full of Ekans who all knew Seed Bomb at the two other Teams. Hoopa is sure that the easiest way to simultaneously solve a flooded valley, and the scarcity of water in the desert city of Dahara, is to just run a portal from one to the other! Baraz of Dahara might have raised concerns about this plan, if he weren't busy dodging a high-pressure stream of water. | |

The Pidgeotto Ash caught. She's different from all of his other Pokémon, being one of the Kanto Com Mons, and Ash is only teaching it moves that Pidgeotto could normally learn. Then Pidgeotto evolves... into Pidgey. Oak notes that that's probably the gift Celebi gave her. Later, she reveals the ability to "Pidgey-volve" from Pidgey to Mega Pidgeot and back again. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_8a5dc833 | comment |
It Runs on Nonsensoleum: Any attempted explanation to how Ash and Co's Pokémon can do all their seemingly-impossible shenanigans (like learn any move they want) will most likely start with the fact that Ash knows Mew, pass through the idea of "it makes sense in this way, so it works", and end with the thought of "it's obviously not impossible if we're doing it right in front of your eyes". How can May's Skitty flip around Pokémon attack types to whatever type she wants? She can turn off her Normalize Ability so hard that it works backwards. | |

Didn't Think This Through: Pikachu knows Sky Uppercut (thanks to Mew), which is all well and good, quite an effective move and very surprising to those who don't expect it, but he probably shouldn't have used it on a Mega Aggron who had just used Lock On, and who knew Heavy Slam.note Which is to say, an immense mass of steel just fell on Pikachu with pinpoint accuracy from the stratosphere. | |

Laugh Themselves Sick: When Ash's Zapdos meets up with her Trio's Moltres, she tells him what she's been up to, and he asks whether that isn't compromising the inherent dignity of Legendary Pokémon. Zapdos almost falls out of the sky laughing. After Professor Oak tells Ash that there's a pile of two dozen unconscious Dragonite on his lawn, from Ash's remaining Dratini and Dragonair all infiltrating his gym battle, Dunsparce falls out of its Pokéball, "started giggling, and didn't stop for several minutes." Max nearly falls over laughing when Doctor Yung tells them that he can make his Mirage Pokémon use moves they wouldn't normally know. Iris is unimpressed by Ash and questions whether he knows anything about how to catch Pokémon, causing Pikachu to almost fall off his shoulder laughing. | |

Then the goons realize that, since only one could really be her, there is (at most) only one Pokémon that is actually frozen. At that point, Aten's patience expires and extreme violence ensues. | |

Flight | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_9e0b9695 | comment |
Flight: Several of Ash's Pokémon find unconventional ways to fly, despite not having the Flying type nor the Levitate ability. The Dratini learn Steel Wing with Mew's help. Each of the Legendary Beasts learns to fly in a different manner. Raikou learns how to use Steel Wing, and figures out how to fly with it. Suicune uses her water-walking ability, with water telekinetically held in the air. Entei makes helicopter blades out of lava. Torchic has wings, so even though he's not a Flying type and doesn't normally learn any flying moves, it's at least somewhat logical that Ash teaches him to fly. But then he evolves into Combusken, which doesn't have wings, and doesn't stop. Larvitar rides on a flying carpet made out of Sandstorm. When facing Winona, who requires all challenging Pokémon to be able to fly; Ash doesn't use any Flying types at all, just Suicune, Zacian, and Dratini, even though he has so many Flying types that Lance offered him an Elite Four position as a Flying-type trainer. Subverted when it turns out that Dratini was actually Zorua. Ash himself lifts off the ground and flies through LaRousse city with the help of the tiny Rayquaza in his backpack. Ash manages to get Croagunk to hover, by simply having him jump as high as possible, then avoid the act of hitting the planet. | |

Friendly Fireproof: When rescuing a group of Togepi cornered by a bunch of enemy Pokémon, Dragonite just blasts the area with dragon fire, throwing away the enemies while leaving the Fairy-type hostages completely untouched. Lokoko is able to exclude Ash from the effect of her Hypnosis illusions, while including everyone else. Which still won't affect a Dark-type Pokémon, but will affect the Pokémon's trainer, hindering their ability to give good directions. | |

Rule of Funny: The fic usually works on this as a whole, but Jirachi's wish-granting powers are specifically stated to go for the easiest and/or funniest path first. For example, when Max wishes to be able to understand Pokémon without help, Ash turns into an Absol again. | |

Ascended Extra | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: Lokoko the Ninetales, a Pokémon of the Day, joins Ash and his team as yet another Master of Illusion. In anime canon, Whitney is a gym leader whom Ash faces in two episodes and then never appears in person afterward (though she did make one or two cameos in flashbacks or imagination spots). Here, after her introduction, the story periodically cuts away from Ash and co. to show what she's doing at the time and ultimately has her become a full main character, joining Ash as a traveling companion in Sinnoh. | |

Reality-Breaking Paradox: When Ash gets creative and tries channelling Bayleef's solar energy through Snivy's Lunar Blessing, the result is not just an eclipse but a Black Hole Eclipse. Arc files a bug report with Arceus. | |

Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_a9de87d2 | comment |
Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass: Misty's Psyduck in a nutshell. Thanks to Mew's meddling, it now has an enormous attack repertoire, but the only way for it to use them is via Sleep Talk. Put it this way: when Misty's sisters are using Psyduck in gym battles, after the steps to self-hypnotise it and get it to use Sleep Talk, the next step is to evacuate the building. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_abd29ad8 | comment |
No-Sell: The Iron-Masked Marauder tries to stop Ash and Co. by getting Celebi to shift to an alternate timeline where Ash isn't there to stop him. The problem is, in every timeline Celebi tries, Ash, although with different companions and Pokémon, is still there trying to stop him. The Taillow Ash catches in Hoenn is unaffected by Electric-type moves.note This is pulled straight from the anime. Then Mew teaches it the move Electrify, so it can convert any incoming attack to Electric-type (and thus be unaffected). | |

Oh, Crap! | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_ad1db87c | comment |
Oh, Crap!: Giovanni, after meeting Ash for the first time, getting his Nidoking trounced by Raikou, and then seeing Ash send out Zapdos. This is Falkner's introductory line: Mew gets this reaction when Brock catches her in the form of a Pineco. She has to spend the night getting blown up by more Pineco, trying to find one amenable to taking her place. The Iron Masked Marauder is very justified for reacting this way when Dialga appears, instantly destroying his time bubble and using Roar of Time to take him down and undo all the changes made to the timeline. Ash's shapeshifting Unown has spelled as far as "G-E-O-M-A-N-" when Gary realises what it's doing and his eyes widen.note "Geomancy" is slow to activate but strongly boosts its user. Trip is dismissive of Ash's homeland of Kanto, calling it "the boonies", and is then completely baffled by Ash's attempts to compare different regions (which involves calling Mirage Mew to check the skyscraper heights on the moon). But he challenges Ash to a battle anyway, and sends out his brand new starter, Snivy — and Ash, after checking with his Pokémon, decides to send out his Arc Phone. | |

So What Do We Do Now?: When Lucy actually responds to Brock's flirting and asks to see him after her battle with Ash, a stunned Brock turns to his friends and admits that since he never thought he'd get this far, he has no idea what to do now. Team Galactic are hit with this when Ash locks them out of the Spear Pillar, and they left everything, including the extremely rare and hard to find key, inside, effectively meaning the entire plan is impossible to implement. (Cyrus decides to pack up, ship out, and live on the Moon — but he finds Mirage Mew already there.) | |

I Was Just Joking: Nicolette relaxes when she recognizes her visitors, because they're not likely to be thieves; "if Ash Ketchum was the sort to try to steal something then he wouldn't be bothering with our farm. He'd be aiming for something bigger, like… I don't know. Saffron City. Or the tides." Brock then makes the mistake of asking how someone would steal the tides. | |

Epic Fail: Ash and Misty encounter some trainers in the Orange Islands who decided to get themselves a strong water-type Pokémon, and had heard that Cloyster like eating Slowpoke tails, so they had their Shellder battle a trainer with a Slowpoke. At the end of the battle, their opponent had a Slowbro.note Which is to say, the Shellder permanently attached itself to the Slowpoke, making it evolve. Not only did they power up their opponent, not only did they lose the fight, they actually lost their own Pokémon. Misty just stares at them for several seconds. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_ba112560 | comment |
Throwing the Fight: Zekrom is psyching himself up to beat Zygarde, when he remembers that he actually wants Ash to catch him, freezes in place, and collapses after being tapped. Dewott wants to participate in the Oshawott/Dewott tournament and test himself, but he doesn't want the prize of spending a year with Osharina. So he deliberately arranges to be disqualified at the very end. Gym Leaders normally adjust the strength of their team to match the challenger; obtaining a badge isn't supposed to require being stronger than the Gym Leader, just proving yourself to them. However, when Ash comes to the Blackthorn Gym, Clair brings her A-game, such as Mega Gyarados. Ash still wins. | |

Whitney's Galarian Rapidash is, similar to canon, a wholesale Shout-Out to My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic. A later Galarian Ponyta is the parallel world Twilight Sparkle. | |

Wowing Cthulhu | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_c81b2a53 | comment |
Wowing Cthulhu: Celebi is a master of time manipulation, capable of feats like making seeds grow into attack plants in linear seconds, or rewinding time so that a Pokémon who dodged an attack gets put back and hit by it anyway. He's still taken aback when Croagunk uses his Avoidance Kata. | |

Semantic Superpower | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_c85adb75 | comment |
Semantic Superpower: One of Suicune's known powers is purifying dirty water. Anything like mud, dirt, or even magma counts as contaminants. So, if Suicune manages to dilute the terrain with enough water for it to count as a field of dirty water, with a single touch, she can purify (read: transmute) the whole battlefield into pure water. Ash's Shiny Rayquaza has the ability to cancel out weather effects. This notably includes the weather itself. There are traces of this when Unown is partway through spelling an attack and Clefairy uses Me First — resulting in Clefairy using every attack that starts with F-L-, simultaneously. For the full list, that's Flail, Flame Burst, Flame Charge, Flame Wheel, Flamethrower, Flare Blitz, Flash, Flash Cannon, Flatter, Fleur Cannon, Fling, Flip Turn, Floaty Fall, Floral Healing, Flower Shield, Fly, and Flying Press. The Spiky-Eared Pichu is so detached from linear time, she no longer actually obeys any of the laws of temporal physics, even stopping an electric move from connecting mid-attack, and casually suggests a small scale time loop to solve how Princess Salvia can stand in for Dawn as well as do her normal duties... and goof around as a Plusle and Minun with Dawn. Scrafty decides, given how Ash travels around, that her territory is the whole universe, and that her Nature Power can therefore take on any element within her territory. Even Psychic and Dark Elements. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_caa28b82 | comment |
Cloudcuckoolander: Downplayed with Ash. Observed from a distance, or meeting him for the first time, he and his team appear to be insane. Hang around long enough, and his personality begins to make sense in terms of his own life experiences, where Legendary Pokémon are a dime a dozen to the point where they've scared away the Com Mons, and the rules and norms that other people take for granted (like limitations on which moves a Pokémon can learn) just don't apply. Still, when he's in a big fight, the best strategy is to just sit in the audience with popcorn, rather than trying to make sense of the things he does. Stick around Ash for too long, and you're in danger of being converted. May met him when she was just starting out on her journey, and doesn't realise how skewed her perspective is. Mew, hands down. From teaching moves that a Pokémon wouldn't normally learn, to jailbreaking the Pokéball system so that they can be caught multiple times (disguised as a different Pokémon each time), to demonstrating his/her/their utter lack of an attention span... Brandon, who is basically just an adult version of Ash. The traveling group for Sinnoh seems to be made up of these in its entirety - Ash is self-explanatory and Whitney just enables him, and without any more sensible-minded companions, Dawn is ending up just as bizarre as Ash himself. | |

Taking You with Me | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_caf89e54 | comment |
Taking You with Me: Destiny Bond is one of the few strategies that will work to take out Ash's Legendaries. Steven and Phoebe observe, though, that it's not easy to teach, and Pokémon may resent learning it. Notably, the one time it is used on one of Ash's Pokémon, the resulting attack effectively glitches out due to Swellow's abilities, and could have destroyed the arena and harmed the spectators if Zygarde didn't intervene... meaning that even that isn't a reliable strategy. | |

Spiritual Antithesis | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_ce2969d8 | comment |
Spiritual Antithesis: To Ashes of the Past, by the same author. Though some things happen similarly in both stories, a lot of things have been swapped, such as Ash having few qualms about using his Legendary roster, Whitney being friendly to Ash, Eusine being more reasonable and willing to talk to Suicune instead of being obsessed with catching her, or Ash not becoming the Johto League Champion but becoming the Hoenn League Champion instead. Also, instead of an overarching, world-ending disaster that Ash and Co. are gearing up and preparing for, the friends are just spending their regular Pokémon journey broadening their horizons in move development. In general, Ashes of the Past tends to have things Played for Drama, while Legendarily Popular has everything Played for Laughs. | |

Hoist by His Own Petard | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_d397657d | comment |
Hoist by His Own Petard: Why doesn't Ash win the Indigo League? Because Ritchie's team in this timeline contains a bunch of unevolved pseudo-Legendaries, all powered up with Eviolite, and what do unevolved Pokémon usually do around Ash? The Master of Mirage obtains all of Ash's Pokédex data under false pretenses, in order to improve his Pokémon simulations. That data includes the fact that Ash's Mew has epic computer hacking skills. Which get added to M-001, the Mew-shaped mirage designed as the conscience of the system, which the Mirage Master had tried to imprison when it objected to his plans. It proceeds to take over the entire system. Harley attempts to use a small thread cast between him and May to poison her Pokémon so they are unable to battle effectively... only for one of May's moves to set fire to part of it, and reveal the deception to the judges, who ban him on the spot. | |

Real Rayquaza is so done with it. | |

Failed Attempt at Drama: At the end of the Shamouti Island events, Lugia appears trying to be dramatic, only to find his normally recalcitrant Legendary Birds just bickering over dango, and when he tries to explain the Prophecy to Ash, his son Silver interrupts him to greet his childhood friend. Ho-Oh sees Tracey Sketchitt looking at him, poses artistically... and gets clobbered out of the air by a high speed blimp. Zacian formally greets Cameron's Hydreigon, stating her wish for a worthy battle, but all Hydreigon can concentrate on is asking how she can talk so clearly with a sword in her mouth. | |

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: The third-or-so time Casey sees Ash, Misty is having her Gyarados practice Acrobatics, performing a double-backflip through the air to knock Raikou a hundred feet backwards. Casey does an about-face and walks right off. When Ash returns to Kanto for the Battle Frontier, Giovanni makes immediate holiday plans in Alola. Professor Birch is stuck in a tree, surrounded by Poochyena — and then Ash flies in on Zapdos. The pack takes one look upward and flees. Ash and Whitney come across Dawn, besieged by a group of Ariados, and offer to take her back to Sandgem Town. One of the spiders becomes annoyed at being ignored, and tries to challenge them, but the other spiders recognise Pikachu, and know about Ash's Legendaries, and they are out of there. Hunter J swoops toward a herd of Shieldon, sees that Ash is present, and immediately calls her buyer to demand double the agreed price. Apparently the buyer refuses, because she then announces "Deal's off" and leaves. Saturn, of Team Galactic, becomes aware of Ash's presence at one of their operations, and orders an immediate cancellation and evacuation in the next minute, without changing his tone of voice, as if it was entirely routine. Upon meeting Ash a second time, Trip claims to have suddenly remembered something he needs to do in a different city and quickly leaves. | |

Know When to Fold 'Em | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_e16cd24e | comment |
Know When to Fold 'Em: Lawrence apparently decided to call it quits and auction off his airship and Mew tablet after finding himself to have apparently snagged three Zapdos (the Shamouti one, Ash's, and Mew pretending to be Articuno), and then seeing them promptly escape. In some of Ash's gym battles, there is a valid situation for a rematch, but in all cases, the leader decides to give Ash the badge rather than go through any more of his nonsense. Erika's gym battle had the requirement that at least one member must not be fully-evolved. When Ash realizes that the unevolved member (Mankey) was actually Mew, he rides back on his new Entei to apologize. Erika declines to make him battle again. When Ash matches Cissy of the Orange crew in a target shootout, Cissy decides to just give him her badge when she realizes the alternative would be a surfing match against Suicune. Ash technically forfeits his match against Rudy by using a disguised Zorua when he was supposed to use a Dragon-type, but after the experience with an Illusioned Dynamaxed Ninetales, Rudy just wants a lie-down instead. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_e83f211c | comment |
O.O.C. Is Serious Business: You know Mew is really concerned about a situation (the sick Ralts) when she drops her current Dunsparce disguise in order to help. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_e9327f58 | comment |
Too Spicy for Yog-Sothoth: Closer to too strong for the Elite Four, as Lance notes during the Scuffle Kerfuffle chapter... though he only decides that after Ash's Rayquaza learns to Mega Evolve. | |

Rules Lawyer: Ash teaches Suicune how to fly using Suicune's ability to walk on water, teaching her Extrasensory so that she can carry water to walk on around with her like a shoe. He later teaches Croagunk how to fly by telling him to simply dodge gravity. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_ee7a60e9 | comment |
One-Steve Limit: Parodied with Ash, who can understand Pokémon Speak, and thus can hear "Bulbasaur" and know which of the two Bulbasaurs someone is talking about, while everyone else can't. Parodied when Ash introduces all (twenty-seven) of his Dragonite to Croagunk. | |

Anti-Climax | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_eeb4a5eb | comment |
Anti-Climax: Every single movie. The closest we have to a dramatic climax so far is Ash and Mew breaking the time lock in Movie 4 with Genesis Supernova, so Dialga can express his displeasure. Ash deals with meta-Groudon by accidentally catching it. The whole Delta episode is reduced to Big Rayquaza showing up afterward, having resolved everything and bringing a meteorite chunk for a picnic with Little Rayquaza, because "It is important for a growing Rayquaza to have plenty of space rock in their diet." The Jewel of Life issue is dealt with by Nickit using Spectral Thief to find it and give it to Arceus. Arceus does make them go back to fix it in the past as well, where they use the same solution. | |

Mundane Utility | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_eff83d77 | comment |
Mundane Utility: Lokoko is very pleased to have tiny Shiny Rayquaza travelling with them, because they always have good camping weather. Zacian uses Hoopa's Hyperspace Holes to share Brock's cooking with her brother. Hoopa initially complains about being a food delivery service, but is interested when the possibility of getting a share of the barbecue is brought up. Brandon gives Ash a notice that he'll be ready to battle tomorrow. He sends it tomorrow, after getting ready, with a Celebi delivering it for him to the day before. (And he does it because Ash told him it had happened and he thought it sounded like a good idea.) Cilan's phone was extremely cheap, because it doesn't even have a battery. Instead, his Stunfisk powers it directly when he needs to use it. | |

The Jewel Of Life incident is meant to be one... until Nickit just retrieves the Jewel in the present. Arceus forces the issue anyway, so Nickit just retrieves it again in the past. | |

Latias and Latios use "Hoopa Holidays" to visit Ash's bedroom and play video games. Much later, Latias uses her rudimentary fighting knowledge from those games to fend off Annie and Oakley's kidnapping attempt. | |

Spirited Competitor | |
Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_f7d11c61 | comment |
Spirited Competitor: Ash and most of his Pokémon qualify. After his loss to Lance, he bursts into laughter, rejoicing about what a great battle it was. Part of the reason he rotates his Pokémon around is because they love battling and he doesn't want them to feel left out. Snorlax is one of the few exceptions, mostly because battling interferes with sleeping time. | |

Whitney attempts to start off her battle against Ash by having Regigigas use Mega Punch, but its Slow Start ability means it doesn't react, so she decides to just use her regular team. After Ash beats her three Pokémon in an epic dance battle, Regigigas suddenly punches Ash's current Pokémon through the ceiling. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_fd7a9d0 | comment |
Removed Achilles' Heel: By applying his experience with the move Drill Run, Charizard learns how to Dive, and thus swim. Norman's opening move in Ash's gym battle is to have one of his Pokémon launch Gastro Acid at the other one — which is Slaking. Thus nullifying its Truant ability and dropping the "glacier" part from Mighty Glacier. Ash completes Skyla's Gym Challenge by teaching three of his team how to 'fly'. | |

Legendarily Popular (Fanfic) / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: Ash tells Lieutenant Surge that Pikachu can learn moves that Raichu can't, and Pikachu proceeds to send Raichu through the ceiling with Sky Uppercut. Later, as Ash and his friends are on the road to Celadon City, Butterfree wanders off on her own — and catches a falling Raichu. Whitney attempts to start off her battle against Ash by having Regigigas use Mega Punch, but its Slow Start ability means it doesn't react, so she decides to just use her regular team. After Ash beats her three Pokémon in an epic dance battle, Regigigas suddenly punches Ash's current Pokémon through the ceiling. Whitney stated that she got Regigigas from when it crashed into her Gym's Storeroom on an ice sled (which occurred during the Wacky Race in an earlier chapter). Latias and Latios use "Hoopa Holidays" to visit Ash's bedroom and play video games. Much later, Latias uses her rudimentary fighting knowledge from those games to fend off Annie and Oakley's kidnapping attempt. Ash, Dawn, and Whitney meet Paige, and her friend Yveltal. Yveltal requests that Ash inform him if he finds another Yveltal, musing that he's interested in seeing what he looks like shiny. Several chapters later, Ho-oh deals with a Spiritomb by reincarnating all 108 of its component souls, yielding three Legendaries — including a Shiny Yveltal. | |
