You do you, little bro.

[ To each their own, as it were. There was a flash and An Tintreach popped up with the other two Pikachus. She looked at the screen, saw The Flying Bear, and her eyes lit up. She jumped onto Ash so she could see clearly, waving to the Stufful ]

Flying Bear!! You've been keeping up on your training?

[ Ash just smiled and rubbed the top of her head. ] Hey An Tintreach. I mean, I'm kinda used to it. Like I said, me and my Dad would use Irish at home and when we were out and about at times, so I'm guessing this is just what it's like on the other side of that.

...Wait, when did you meet Noctis' stuffed plushie mon? [ He doesn't remember introducing An Tintreach to Amicitia, partly cos he hasn't seen him before much himself. ]

[Amicitia perks up at the sight of his mentor, attempting to stand up on Noctis's head which has the prince wincing and reaching up to try and stop him.]

Hey--

An Tintreach! I've gotten stronger! So have Kitty and Crowe! We're going to be the best wrestlers ever! [He pauses, swaying on top of Noct's head.] Well, not better than you but second best!

Apparently they met when we weren't around because I never see him get this excited unless it involves my Larvitar and Tyrunt.

[ Ash laughed brightly as An Tintreach beamed and held her tiny fists up gleefully ]

Looks like we just can't stop our Pokemon being friends, huh?

I can't wait to see you guys in action and fight with you! I gotta show you my new move; I've been training every day to nail it and to get strong. And hey, you can be just as good as me. If your fighting spirit is as strong as mine!

[ Ash couldn't understand her, but he could feel her getting pumped and see her thump her chest. He ruffled the top of her head. God, he loved this Pokemon. ]

Nope, doesn't look like it. It's a horrible thing, huh?

We'll all be the best then! The best wrestlers ever!

[Amicitia bounced and promptly fell only to be swiftly caught by Noctis.]

Easy there, buddy!

It is! I don't want yours influencing mine to be trouble! Look at that bear, being so clumsy!

[ He says with a playful grin...as An Tintreach beams with pride. ]

Yeah we are! No-one'll be able to face us and walk out of the ring!

Oh yeah because yours are completely innocent in this!

[It's said with a laugh as he holds onto Amicitia who growl-roars happily.]

We'll be the best in the region! Pro-wrestlers!

The best in the world! We'll be legends!
[ The Legendary Trio of the Cruncher, the Flying Bear and the Catastrophe, with their mentor, The Lightning herself! ]

[ Ash can't help laughing ]

Good point; my Gallade teaching your Sneasel how to be a knight and all. How terrible! ...but at least T-Pain hasn't gotten anywhere near your younger Pokemon.

They'll tell stories forever and ever!

[Ah, young and impressionable Pokemon. Noctis had no idea what he was in store for.]

Why? Is T-Pain the worst of the bunch?

[Because he's not sure if he believes that or not.]

[ An Tintreach is so proud, she can't help laughing eagerly. ]
And someday, there'll be Pokemon who were once like us! They'll hear our stories and decide to be legends too!

He's the ringleader. I know he is; Macavity and Kinnagoe both talk with him before things suddenly appear. [ Ash lowered his voice ] I found him holding onto this rock the other day. No idea where he's gotten it, but I found a picture of it in the Goldenrod Department Store catalogue. It's called a King's Rock. I'll bet gold to potatoes he nicked it somehow.

Yeah! We'll inspire everyone!

[Amicitia waved his front paws before going limp and just hanging on Noct's arm as he grinned at An Tintreach.]

It's all because of you!

That's..Ash that's amazing. You have a Slowpoke that's a criminal mastermind!

[ An Tintreach just beamed, unable to hide her joy. ]
I just started this...without you guys, it'd just be me by myself. And it's way more fun with friends to wrestle!

I told ya man; he wasn't upset at all when I took him from Azalea!

[Amicitia looked briefly shy, hiding his face against his paws.]

We just wanted to be awesome like you! Thank you for being our mentor!

What have you done, Ash? You've doomed us all!

[ Ash shrugged with goofy smile ]

Criminal slowpokes, all these Pikachus...I don't even know what I'm doing man.

[ Speaking of the Pikachus, they were clearly quite impressed by An Tintreach. The one who had spoken to Ash stepped forward again, leaning on Ash's leg to watch the conversation. An Tintreach nodded to him and then to Amictia. ]

It's totally my pleasure! Thank YOU for being my pupil!

Starting a ring of criminal activity, that's what you're doing.

[Noct sighs, shaking his head but it's clear he's trying not to laugh.]

My best friend here in the Pokemon world is an unintentional criminal enabler.

[Amicitia brightens, squirming about again.]

It's an honor, An Tintreach!

Hey, I also got a knight! And quite a few good boys and girls! [ He's grinning as well, sitting back and smiling. ]

To be fair, I never thought I'd have an honourable, but sleepy, prince for a friend either. So we're clearly even.

[ She couldn't help it. An Tintreach cupped her cheeks and squished them in joy. ]

((

))

[That gets a sheepish laugh out of Noctis, the prince rubbing the back of his neck.]

Alright alright, fair enough.

[ Ash just smiled and then noticed An Tintreach being the cutest thing. Placing two fingers on each check, he took over squishing and rubbing them for her. ]

What are you doing, huh? Being fucking adorable, like Noct here?

Okay, I am nowhere near as adorable as she is!

[Ash why do you say these things??? Why???]

...I'm gonna squish your cheeks when I see ya. [ HE'S GONNA DO IT NOCTIS. THIS IS THE SMILE OF A MAN WHO WILL. ]

Don't you dare I will make you regret it, Ash!

Well I can't turn down a challenge, can I!

That was totally not a challenge, you ass!

[He's laughing though so it's clear he isn't really mad about it.]

[ Ash is just laughing as well, while An Tintreach grin bright and cheers. Her trainer NEVER refuses a challenge!! YOU SQUISH THOSE CHEEKS ASH! ]
