Hey, everyone! Since I'm back here, I'd love to show you guys a story that I've been working on for a couple of years, now. I'd love if some of you could check it out and/or tell me what you think! It's pretty long at this point, even if it's not done yet, so there's a lot of content to enjoy. This one's called Another Road; it's set after the very end of Diamond/Pearl, but before Black/White. The story revolves around Ash being disappointed with his repeated failures at conferences, and wanting to do something different to change that trend. So, he puts himself through a strict training regiment, and later travels familiar territory again to prepare himself for the next league he enters. How does this relate to pearlshipping, you might wonder. Well, Ash won't be alone for the ride ! Along the way, Dawn joins him, having finished her pokestylist work for now, and she's started to slack off, so she teams up with Ash to continue winning ribbons.
The story's primary focus is Ash wanting to finally succeed, but there's plenty of chemistry between Ash and Dawn to run with if you enjoy the ship, and you'll get to see her take on contests again! They'll have to face a few outside perils, too.
Here's the story! www.fanfiction.net/s/11351431/1/Another-Road
Any questions and commentary are appreciated!
EDIT: Keeping the rules of the forum in mind, I should probably warn that there are minor mature themes in this fanfic. Nothing incredibly explicit or awful; not to scare anyone off, but occasional swearing and violent intentions on behalf of the antagonists are involved. Not everyone in Team Rocket is a bumbling joke like Jessie and James have been, you know!
The T rating on the site is appropriate.
Oh, and last but not least, here's a video trailer I made for it! Hope it gives you guys a rough idea of what it's about.

I have read so far seven chapters from your story and it's realy good!!! I like the way that you brought back Pigeot and Lapras!!! Also the interaction between Ash and his Pokémon!!! The battles are so close with of the anime!!! The spirit and the creativity are exacly the same!!! I feel like I'm watching the anime!!! And also I like the fact that you put the action in a place which is known to the fans but it's not familiar!!! You are realy good!!! Thank you and please keep up the good work!!!

Thanks so much!
Yeah, I didn't want to leave anyone out, and I put my heart into the battles. It's good to know that they came out engaging!
Of course; there's still plenty more where that came from! I hope you get to read the rest, I feel like I was still getting into the groove of writing back then, so the later stuff is probably better.

Wow, that's really nice of you, thanks! See you then!
I have some fanart for the story, but not all of it's pearl, so I'm not sure whether it'd go in this thread or the fanart board haha.

Yes I know!!!! I just received a masage in my mail about the new chapter!!!! Now I'm officialy one of your followers!!! Unfortunately yesterday I was able to read only three chapters!!! I loved them!!! I'm starting to think that you are in my mind and you are truly lucky because you have the ability to write what we have imagine!!! So the reunion of Ash and Larvitar/Tayranitar was perfect!!! And I liked that you used a scene like in anime with the Unknow!!! Then we have Bayleef's evolution!!! That scene was not only good but so emotional and affectionate!!! From Johto Bayleef is one of my favorite Pokémon!!! After that we have the battle of Pikachu with Moltres!!! I leak of words!!! When I read that scene I felt like I was watching the xyz episode with Zapdos or the battle between Charizard and Articoono!!! It was that great!!! And the finaly blow was that you send Ash to learn how to use his aura!!! I was jupping in all my home because I was so happy when I read this!!! Please tell me that you make Ash to catch a Riolu or a Lucario and my happyness will be comlete!!! I realy don't know what else to say!!! They are such a good chapters!!! Keep up to write good stories so I can read them!!!!
