Pokemon: Radical Redux

(Oak POV)

Oak was currently thinking of how he could get Giovanni's son into his school without anyone suspecting something. Over all the years that he had lived in Pallet Town no other children from other regions or towns had ever come to the school in Pallet.

But that gave him an idea, 'If I let other children from other regions and towns, nobody would suspect Silver specifically. I should ask my colleagues in other regions to recommend some children to join my school.'

Oak then went over to his Computer and contacted other professors from other regions, and some friends from other towns to recommend a new batch of students to join Oak's school.

(Ash POV)

(A few months later)

'After a few months of training there are two main things of note that have happened, I have been getting better in sensing, but I haven't mastered it yet, I could have but Sir Aaron told me to progress slowly otherwise I might get corrupted and I don't want that, no matter I don't have a time limit anymore so I can take as much time as I need.'

'Secondly, Professor Oak's school is going to start this coming Monday. I will finally get to learn from the man himself. So I need to be ready, there's no telling what else is different so I will need to learn as much as I can. But first, more training,'

(On Monday)

"Ash come downstairs, you need to go to class you can't sleep-in, in on the first day of school," Dela said trying to get Ash to get ready.

"I'm already up and ready, but me personally I would never be caught sleeping in," Ash yelled as he ran down the stairs.

"Well good to know you are as energetic as always, any way do you want me to walk you to school," Dela said while smiling.

Ash looked a little dumbfounded, "Seriously, it is literally down the corner, it's fine I can go alone, thank you anyway" Ash said as he started walking out the door "Bye."

Dela said, "By Ash, love you"

As Ash walked out of his house he noticed Gary was also leaving his house to get to school as well, so he approached.

"Hey Gary, you are walking to school alone too," Ash said to get Gary's attention.

Looking at Ash, Gary said, "Oh hey Ash, yah Daisy went off to her classes earlier and it's literally down the corner" He said looking at the School building was probably less than a block away.

They started walking together to get to school but then Gary brought up something interesting.

"Hey, have you heard that apparently, Gramps is letting other kids from other towns and regions join his school?"

That made Ash genuinely confused, "What? Isn't the fact that no one but people from Pallet and those recommended by Oak himself allowed to even come into Pallet, much less to study under him."

Gary just shrugged, "Apparently he wants to allow others the same opportunities or something, so he asked his friends to recommend some kids to join us."

As Ash heard that he thought, 'That is concerning, what made Oak let others in, people have tried and failed to bribe him so what could be his reasoning for letting others in.' He thought as he and Gary arrived at Professor Oak's school.

As they came in they looked at a large building and moved to the Auditorium, where they saw Oak on the stage along with a lot of other kids, more kids than normally live in Pallet. As they sat down due to the magic of plot convenience Oak started.

"Hello everyone, welcome to my school. As you all may know I am Professor Oak, but you may know me as the Pokemon professor, all of you are here for your reasons and some of you may be confused, but worry not, I have chosen to allow my colleagues to recommend students from other regions to join, as to see if there may be a positive effect to a more diverse school." Oak said, to some students' excitement and some students' dismay.

'Right, and Team Rocket just wants to expand our knowledge about Pokemon and make mermaid Pokemon, they don't want a weapon of mass destruction. Yeah, I don't believe that for a second, if that was his goal he had nearly 20 years to do that. So what is the real reason?'

"So to allow all of you to get to know each other, everyone, to come up and announce themselves. Say your preferred name and what you want to be. We'll start with people from Pallet and then we'll go with everyone else and we can go alphabetically. No need to be afraid we are all friends."

'Well, I guess that means I am up first.' As Ash got up to get to the stage the line of those from Pallet formed behind him.

"Hello, you all can call me Ash, and I want to be a Pokemon trainer."

…

…

"Hey, I'm Gary Oak and I will be a Pokemon master"

"Hello you can call me Green I want to become a Pokemon trainer"

…

…

…

…

…

As those from Pallet finished, he noticed only he, Gary, and Green want to be Pokemon trainers.

"Thank you, everyone, now for everyone else, come up and say your preferred name where you come from, and what you want to be," Oak said trying to let others feel welcomed as well.

As he said that some children came up on stage, there were a few unfamiliar faces but there were also some faces he recognized.

...

—----------------------

As Ash was listening to this so many things were going through his head, 'Why were so these people here, If Chloe is here why is Goh not here? How and why are they here? And how will this be different? And why is becoming a Pokemon trainer so rare.'

Oak started to speak," Well this was a very productive day I ho-"

"WAIT!!"

As everyone looked through the door a small blond kid was running through, "Barry from Sinnoh, and I will become a Pokemon trainer." As he got inside he said, "Sorry I'm late I slept in."

Oak looked and shook his head, "That is alright my boy, just if it happens again don't make such a loud commotion" and looking at everyone in the room, "As I was saying, I hope we can all get along with each other, now for classes, there will be a few classes that everyone has to take, like pokemon History. But then each of you may choose electives that may relate to what you want to do or just what you find interesting. You may choose as many as you like but don't overwork yourself."

"Next You all will be split into different groups since there are so many of you this year compared to previous years, you will be put into different classes based on how you were recommended."

"And last thing before I let you all socialize and look at classes, you may all leave the school or keep studying at any time, but I must have you all stay depending on your region's minimum age requirement. I know some of you want to start as soon as possible but the rules are beyond my control."

"But other than that I will let you all choose your classes, I hope to see you all tomorrow for your first class."

And as he said that people started to pass around a pamphlet with the classes available, and others started leaving.

The required classes ranged from math, Pokemon Biology, English, Basic Pokemon Knowledge, Ect.

And the elective classes ranged from Pokemon battling, inventing, contests, care of Pokemon, pokemon research, medical fields, etc. Even some specific professions like Ace trainer, and Rangers.

Looking around a bunch of people were doing different things May and Dawn were hitting it off, makes sense they both want to do contests and like bird-like Pokemon. There were the people that seemed to know each other before coming here like Bianca and Cheren, and then there are the introverts like Wally and Yellow and the extroverts like Bianca and Tierno. And then there was the angry corner with Paul and Silver.

Looking down at the paper Ash thinks, 'Well I might as well apply to as many as I can, Knowing original ash he probably took the classes that were required and just left.'

Looking around seeing everyone talking, even Gary is talking to some people, 'I might as well talk to everyone since I'll be with them in classes.'

So hey the school ark is starting and believe it or not, I had more characters planned but got rid of a lot so there would be 9 named boys and 9 named girls, I chose them based on what I thought I could make a better story with.

Believe it or not, I originally had it doubled, and had every Main character from the manga.

I will not make this an academic slice of life, I will establish time skips and important information to the story. So don't worry for those of you who don't like this sort of thing.
