Bob stood with his girlfriend, cousin, and his cousin's girlfriend."I can't believe it Bob. We are going to Paradise Island on the SS Hyperion." said Stella."Yep. I am so happy because I get to see the family." said Bob.

He then ran on the boat as Rick said,"He is so much like a Pokemon."."Yep but it is one of his traits that we all like." said Krystal."Yeah. We better get on." said Stella."Right." said the two.

They followed Bob and they saw him.The boat was moving to the island and Bob said,"Lets have fun!".He then ran toward the dressing room and Rick sighed."Sometimes. He is like a kid on a sugar high." said Rick.

Bob then stood there in his trunks.Stella noticed his six pack and she said,"Wow."."Thanks Stella. Guess sparing with Selena and Nick helped a little." said Bob."Lets have some fun because the tourney can wait." said Krystal."Right." said the three.

Bob was relaxing in a beach chair as some of his Pokemon excluded his legendary Pokemon were out.Lapras was in the pool, Razor, Universe, Ray, and Robot were flying around, Brian was relaxing and he was keeping an eye on Donphan who was letting Dedenne and Spark play on her, and Swampert was keeping an eye on the Playful Pokemon who was dancing with some Bellossom and Maractus.

Bob then noticed three trainers walking toward him.One was a girl with red hair and the other two was a girl with green hair and the last boy has blue hair."Is your name Bob?" said the girl."Yep. And you guys are?" said Bob."My name is Ember and these are my friends Hydro and Flora and we challenge you to a triple battle." said Ember."Sure. I'm game. Return you guys!" said Bob.

Rick sat there with his girlfriend laying on him."This is nice. No battles to bother us." said Krystal."You must be happy that me and you aren't fighting in this." said Rick."It is nice but I would love to finally defeated you." said Krystal."We could have a battle right now." said Rick."Yeah. Lets do this! Go Ninetails!" said Krystal.The shiny Fox Pokemon came out and then Rick said,"Lets go Manectric!".The Shiny Discharge Pokemon came out and the two said,"Overheat!".

Bob stood there and he said,"You guys were awesome.".Swampert was covered with burns marks as he said,"Ember's Charizard and Delphox were fun to fight.".Drake stood there and he was soaked."Hydro's Feraligatr and Samurott were fun to fight. Not going to lie." said Drake.Thunder then had vines and petals over him as he said,"The Thunder could handled that Sceptile and Torterra!".

The three walked over and Hydro said,"Guess you being one of the final eight in the Ryoku League Tourney means that we had no chance of win this."."You need to have more confidence with yourself Hydro." said Stella.She was wearing a bikini that made Bob's face light up.

"You must be the premiere coordinator Stella. My name is Flora." said Flora.She shook her hand and Stella said,"Who are these people Bob?"."These guys are the Starter three." said Bob."Yep. I have Charizard, Typhlosion, Blaziken, Infernape, Emboar, and Delphox with me. People call me Ember. Charizard is also my main starter." said Ember.

She then did a pose along with her Charizard."Guess I am Hydro. I have Blastoise, Feraligatr, Swampert, Empoleon, Samurott, and Greninja. Feraligatr is my main Pokemon." said Hydro.

Feraligatr nod his head as Joy healed him."And I am the final member. I am Flora and I am a coordinator. I have an Venusaur, Meganium, Sceptile, Torterra, Serperior, and Chesnaught. Torterra is my main." said Flora.The Contient Pokemon smiled as Pancham played on him."Sorry about him. He is still a baby." said Bob."It is no problem Bob." said Flora.

Stella then grabbed Bob's arm and Bob said,"She gets jealous easy. So why are you guys going to Paradise Island?"."We are visiting the royal family." said Hydro.

He then looked off the boat and Stella said,"What is with him?"."He has a major crush on the princess and they are friends." said Blaze.

Bob then return his Pokemon and then he saw Rick with burn marks along with Krystal who also had burn marks."What happened?" said Flora."We got caught in a Overheat." said Rick.Bob then said,"Come back out Joy."

Hyperion landed as Bob got off.He then notice Paradise Island.It had a beach, several hotels, a town, and a castle."So what is that?" said Bob.Rick stood there and he said,"A castle Bob."."I know that Rick. But why is it here? I mean Hydro, Blaze, and Flora left already." said Bob."This castle is known for its relationship to Meloetta and Cobalion. Those two are both powerful Pokemon." said Krystal."So where is the family reunion meeting spot?" said Stella."It is always somewhere you don't expect." said Rick."Like there?" said Stella.

She pointed to a festival."Nope but good try." said Bob."Did Uncle Clifford pick that place last year?" said Rick."He did." said Krystal.

Then Stella screamed.She jumped into Bob who fell into the ocean."Bob!" said Stella.Then Rick saw a familiar Pokemon.It was a Shedinja."Hey Ricky." said a man.The man had short red hair and he was standing next to a Stantler who had a sleigh attached to him."Uncle Clifford!" said Krystal.

She hugged her boyfriend's uncle."It is good to see you again Krystal. So where is Bob?" said Clifford."Well. Shedninja scared Bob into the ocean." said Rick.Bob then came out and he said to the Shed Pokemon,"Good to see you again. Next time please don't scare my girlfriend. She doesn't like bug Pokemon or Ghost Pokemon which means that she isn't a big fan."."Your girlfriend?!" said Clifford.

He then grab the girl and he said,"My name is Clifford and please don't do leave my nephew for some one way better. I mean he always lose his Pokemon matches because of his horrible luck.".

Bob stood there and he said,"I love you too Clifford."."Oh I didn't see you there Bob." said Clifford."So are you taking us there?" said Krystal."Yep. I heard from Lance who made it here last night." said Clifford."Then lets go." said Rick.

He was standing there as Bob enter the sleigh."So Bob? Is your family like this?" said Stella."Nope. Only Clifford. They will love you. I promise you that." said Bob.

The sleigh pulled by the Big Horn Pokemon stopped outside a hotel called Le Fancy."So this is the meeting place?" said Stella."Yeah. Rick's Aunt Glenda picked this place." said Clifford.

Bob got out and Stella grabbed onto him."Can you please return Shedinja?" said Bob."Why?" said Clifford."Stella isn't the biggest fan of Bugs or Ghosts. She is fine with her Beautifly and my Aegislash, Gengar, Golurk, Genesect, Giratina, Froslass, and Leavanny." said Bob."Oh. Okay. Return Shedinja!" said Clifford.He return the Shed Pokemon as Stella said,"Thank you Uncle Clifford."."You're welcome pretty lady." said Clifford.

The five walked inside as Bob saw his family.He saw his older brother battling his older sister.Lance had his Talonflame on his side and Robin had her Milotic."Big brother!" yelled Rose.She then tackled the boy and Stella said,"She must be happy with your recent victories."."As am I Bob." said Spencer.

He stood there with Derek."Hey guys. You guys enjoy my victories?" said Bob."Yep. We never thought you make it this far." said Clifford.Bob then fell over as Spencer said,"Not everyone thinks like that Bob. We did think that you would make it far in the League after your victory at the Grand Festival."."Yep and you might be able to beat my brother in law." said Derek."Derek!" said Robin.

Then he moved from the fainted Tender Pokemon as The Scorching Pokemon went to his trainer."Guess Talonflame has gotten stronger." said Robin."Well. I have to thank the Elite Four and Marco for that." said Lance."Yeah. I remember the old Lance who couldn't even beat a Rattata." said Clifford."At least I can win a match!" said Lance."You want to go Lance?" said Clifford.

The two then had flames around them as a voice said,"Cool them off Gorebyss with Hydro Pump!".The South Sea Pokemon then blasted the two men and it cooled the flames.A woman stood there and she said,"That is my brother."."Bob. Who is this?" said Stella."Oh yeah. This is my Aunt Jenna." said Bob."You must be my nephew's girlfriend. I think you two click." said Jenna."Hey Bob. Can we have a battle?" said Clifford."Um sure. This will be great some training for my match." said Bob.

Bob stood across from Clifford and Jenna said,"Shouldn't we wait for Rick's family?"."We should but you guys know Uncle Clifford." said Rick."Yeah." said the family."So why can't we wait?" said Stella."Uncle Clifford is like a fire Pokemon. He always need to battle." said Krystal."Yep. Lets go Magmar!" said Clifford.The Spitfire Pokemon came out and Bob said,"Lets show them your strength! Go Joy!".His Happiny came out and Jenna said,"You caught yourself a Happiny?"."Yep. She may be new but she can handled any foe." said Bob."Begin the match!" said Derek.

Now take a good long rest." said Clifford.

"I can't believe it Stunky. We see Uncle Clifford admitting defeated." said a boy.Then Stella saw a boy who looked about 9 with the Stunk Pokemon with a woman with blue hair and a man with blond hair."Hey mom and dad." said Rick.

He hugged the two as the man said,"It is good to see you again Bob."."You too Uncle Joey, Aunt Mable, and Cousin Wade. This is my girlfriend." said Bob."It is nice to meet you all." said Stella."Cousin Bob's girlfriend is too good for him right Stunky?" said Wade.

The Skunk Pokemon agreed with his trainer as Bob fell over."I think Bob and Stella work well together." said Jenna."Always a romantic. So Bob. You and Rick should have battle this year." said Mable."But Rick ,Bob, and Krystal are all in the Ryoku League. We can't make their Pokemon work too much." said Wade.

The Skunk Pokemon agreed with his trainer and Rose said,"Yeah. Big brother Pokemon need rest."."How about Stella and Krystal?" said Joey."Yeah." said the two kids."What do you think Stella?" said Bob."Sure." said Stella.

"This is a one on one match between Stella and Krystal." said Joey.He was the ref as Krystal said,"Lets go Sunflora!".The Sun Pokemon came out and Stella said,"Lets try our best! Go Togetic!".Her partner Pokemon came out as Joey said,"Begin the match.".

Stella then grabbed the Pokemon and she said,"You were awesome out there."."When did Togetic learn Flamethrower?" said Robin."From Blaze, Heatran, Victini, and Entei. They trained well together." said Bob."Guess so." said Stella."We better get going." said Mable."Why?" said Bob and Stella."Tonight is the ball!" said Rose and Wade."The ball?" said Bob."Yeah. It is the annual dance of Paradise Island and your uncle Clifford is going to get himself a date." said Clifford.

Then Bob and Rick started laughing as Clifford said,"What so funny?"."You getting a girlfriend?" said the two."Big Sister Stella/Krystal! Why is Big brother Bob/Rick laughing?" said the two kids."Um." said the girls."We have known Uncle Clifford since we were little so him getting a girlfriend is really funny." said Rick."Your family is so entertaining Audrey/Robin." said Spencer and Derek."And you are part of it now." said the two girls.

"So Robin? Where are Riley,Dallas,and Lucas?" said Bob."They are inside sleeping. We got here late this morning so they are still sleeping. They really want to see their big brother's Pokemon." said Audrey."They want to see them more than mine." said Derek.

Then a woman stood there with the three kids.The two tackled him and Bob said,"It is good to see you guys too.".Lucas then crawled toward his mom.She then picked him up as Derek said,"Bob! Can we have a a battle?"."Um sure." said Bob.

"This will be a three on three Pokemon Battle between Bob and Derek." said Rick."Lets go Steelix!" said Derek.The Iron Snake Pokemon came out and the four children climbed on him."Um kids. You should get off." said Joey."I am so sorry Joey but when my Steelix comes out, kids gravitated toward it." said Derek.Bob then saw his Pancham go on it."Good grief." said Bob."I got this.

"And Bob would love to meet you. Isn't that right Bob?" said Clifford."Um yeah but I want to have this battle." said Bob."Then do you mind us watching?" said Vicky.Bob then looked at his girlfriend who nodded her head and Bob said,"Okay. Lets go.".

Bob stood there and he said,"Let see if you got this! Lets go Sawk!".The Karate Pokemon stood there and he was ready to fight."Begin!" said Rick.

"You may have the advantage but that doesn't mean anything in this battle." said Derek."I know." said Bob."Okay Iron Tail!" said Derek.The Fighting type then held the tail and then Bob said,"Seismic Toss!"He then threw the snake in the air and Bob said,"Time for a good old fashioned Focus Punch!".He then punched the snake and he was still standing."How?" said Stella."That Steelix look well maintained. I mean Bob's Sawk looks strong and Derek's Steelix looks strong. I don't know who to root for." said Lynda."I feel like Bob can do this." said Stella."He is quite the Pokemon trainer if I do say so myself." said Vicky.

The Aura Pokemon then went back into the poke ball."Thanks for your awesome battle Derek." said Bob."It was a fun one. So when is the ball?" said Derek."Later tonight. We should get to the castle." said Vicky."Right." said Bob.

Outside of the castle, three people were standing there.They were wearing so nice outfits.One of them was holding a screen."We are here Master." said a man.

Arthur stood in the screen as he said,"We have some info about Bob and the legendary Pokemon being here. The master wants him eliminated."."But we can't handled this super powerful Pokemon ." said a man.

A light shined on them.One was a man with purple hair, one of them was a man with brown hair, and the last one was a blond haired girl."Can't you three work together? I mean you guys are the tag team of Hyde. I mean we have Terry the man with the powerful Toxicroak and his incredible Poison Pokemon, Floyd the man with the quick and fast Hitmonchan and his fighting Pokemon, and then we have the final member of this trio Mandy and her very Powerful Pokemon. You guys can handled my idiotic family members." said Arthur.

"You're right!" said the two men.The girl aka Mandy stayed silent."Lets go!" said Terry.He was the leader of the group and the men sneaked in.Mandy followed them.Arthur turned off the screen as a Cobalion smashed the screen with its hoof and it said,"I better find this Bob guy." It hoped on the water.

Bob was dancing with Stella."So is this a nice family reunion?" said Bob."It is because you and me are having our dance and no one is going to stop us." said Stella.Yep. Every since I told everyone that I am not going to battle tonight. They will just have to wait till tomorrow." said Bob."That was a very smart idea Bob. You really impressed me." said Clifford.

He stood there looking for a girl as Bob said."I thought the master of love would be dancing right now."."I am waiting for a girl to dance with me!" said Clifford."You need to ask them Clifford." said Stella.He stood there and Stella took Bob away.

Inside the castle,Mandy was staring at her arm."Why am I with these people?" said Mandy.She tried to remember something when she saw a boy.It was Wade."Are you alright?" said Wade.He was with a very rare Stunky.She then thought,"This kid looks too young to be a Pokemon Trainer."."Who are you talking to Wade?" said a Man.

It was Joey."This lady looks sad. You should dancing with her Daddy." said Wade."But I am with your mother. She seemed happy to take care of you and the others but you escaped with your Stunky" said Joey.

He then smiled as Mandy said,"It is fine. I don't want to bother you two.".Joey then looked at the girl and he said,"Care for a dance?"."I would be delighted too." said Mandy.She danced with the men and he thought,"She looks sad.".

Bob then stood there with his cousin."This was a fun time Rick. I had a blast seeing my cousin and family again." said Bob."It was nice but I wish I got to battle you." said Rick."I did but Stella and Krystal wouldn't allow it." said Bob.

The two then heard the doors slammed."Hey! We are still out here!" yelled Rick.Bob then notice a ladder."Rick!" yelled Bob.He then saw his cousin climbing down a ladder and he followed him.

The two then found a garden."So how are we going to get in? I mean I left all of my Pokemon with my mom." said Rick.Bob then said,"I brought some of mine with me. Lets go Spark!".His Pikachu came out as I said,"Can you help us find a way into the castle?"."Yep!" said Spark.She then ran off as the two boys ran after her.

Stella was tied up with Krystal and the others."What is going on?!" said Stella."Prepare for your destruction!" said a voice."Yes." said another one.

Two men stood there with a girl."Mandy?!" said Wade and Joey."I am sorry." said Mandy."You know her Joey?" said Mable."Daddy danced with her because she was all lonely." said Wade."I expect as much." said Mable."So who are you two?" said Vicky."I am Terry and I am the poison member of the best tag team in Team Hyde." said Terry."And I am Floyd the fighting master." said Floyd."And I am Mandy." said Mandy.She seemed off as Terry said,"Tie her up Toxicroak!".

The Toxic Mouth Pokemon tied up the girl and she threw her to the others."I thought you guys were friends." said Ember."We were but she isn't a true member of Team Hyde." said Floyd."What do you mean?" said Mandy.

"You were once a simple girl living here on Paradise Island but our leader took you in after your home burned down thanks to a wild Pokemon. We had the best scientist turn you into our puppet. We were never friends." said Floyd.

Mandy then fell down as Flora said,"That is so not cool."."Yeah." said the crowd."Why should we listen to you? We have your Pokemon being guarded by our strong Pokemon." said Terry."You idiots aren't going anywhere!" yelled Floyd."I hope Hydro and Lynda are going to be alright." said Vicky.

Hydro was at the fountain and he was waiting for Lynda."I can't believe this day is finally happening. She is asking me out." said Hydro.

The water types nearby was confused at the boy as they noticed a Pikachu running by them."Slow down Spark!" yelled a boy.Hydro then saw Rick and Bob."Rick and Bob? What are you guys doing out here? I thought you guys would be at the party." said Hydro."We were but we got locked out." said Bob.

He then grab his Pokemon and Lynda said,"Bob and Rick? What are you guys doing here?".She stood there and Bob said,"We got locked out."."I see. Don't worry. We have a secret way into the castle." said Lynda.

She then made a secret path out of the fountain."So Lynda? What did you need to say to me?" said Hydro."I love you. I have fallen for you." said Lynda."That is so awesome! This is just like when my team mastered Hydro Cannon!" said Hydro."That is great but can we get going?" said Rick."Right." said the two.

Bob had Spark use Spark as the four explored the secret way.Bob then found a door and he opened it.He found the food supply room."Food!" yelled Bob.He then started eating as Rick opened the door."Do either of you two have your Pokemon on you? Because Bob is out." said Rick.

The three looked at the boy and the mouse and they were eating."I have my Furfrou." said Lynda."And I got Feraligatr." said Hydro."Good. Bob!" said Rick.The two stop as Bob said,"What?"."We are leaving." said Rick."Right. Lets go Spark!" said Bob.The Mouse then agreed as the five walked toward a room where they left their Pokemon.

Bob then notice a Throh and Weezing guarding the door as Rick said,"Darn!"."Pancham!" said Spark.She then ran toward the two and Bob said,"Okay! Thunder Tackle!"."Huh?" said the three.Then the mouse made a Volt Tackle with the power of Thunder.She then knocked out the two as Bob kicked the door down."Sorry about that Lynda!" said Bob.He found his bag and he put it on."Okay. I'm ready." said Bob.The three grabbed their bag as Bob return Spark."You were awesome. Now take a good long rest." said Bob.

Bob then kicked down another door as Lynda said,"Stop doing that!". Sorry." said Bob.Rick then opened a door because he didn't want to get on the bad side of the princess.He found the gang and Krystal said,"Rick?"."Hydro?" said Flora and Ember."Lynda?" said Vicky and some people."Bob?" said his family."Hey guys. So why are you guys tied up? Is this a new dance or something?" said Bob."Bob!" said Stella.

Bob then dodged a Poison Sting from an Arbok."You must be Bob? Time for you to die!" said Terry."Not going to happen Team Hyde." said a voice.Then the Cobra Pokemon was hit with a Psychic and Iron Head.

Bob then saw the Iron Will Pokemon standing next to the Melody Pokemon."That is so cool!" said Bob.He then shook the hand of the Pokemon and then the goat said,"Duck!".Bob then ducked as a Focus Blast went over my head."Stay still!" said Floyd.

He stood there with a Machamp and Conkeldurr as Terry stood there with a Drapion and Garbodor."Bob. You should help them." said Rick.Rick was helping the people escaped with Hydro and Lynda."Gotcha! Lets help these two out Lapras and Luxray!" said Bob.The Gleam Eyes Pokemon came out with the Transport Pokemon.

"Blizzard and Discharge!" said Bob.The two attacks hit and Cobalion and Meloetta attacked with Sacred Sword and Sing.The four evil Pokemon were asleep and Bob said,"It is over you two."."He is right. You two should just give up now because you can't win against us." said Cobalion."Fine." said Terry.

The two were gone and then Bob sat on the floor.Then the Iron Will Pokemon said,"You saved this Kingdom Bob from the evil Team Hyde. You should be happy."."I am but those two might know something about my friends's stolen Pokemon." said Bob."Your friends had their Pokemon stolen?" said Meloetta."Yep. They said something about Team Hyde." said Bob."Can I join you on your Pokemon journey?" said Cobalion."Don't you have to protect the kingdom?" said Luxray."We do but we can leave thanks to Hydro and his friends staying here." said Meloetta."They are?" said Lapras.

"Yeah. I mean Princess Lynda has a crush on the water type trainer for the longest time so we are happy for them but we must help the humans." said Cobalion."Lets go." said Bob.He then captured the two and he return Luxray and Lapras.

Bob was on Hyperion."I can't believe that we have to go Bob." said Z.She stood there with Damien and Meowth carrying bags."Yeah but the Ryoku League needs me." said Bob."You are right but when are you going to use me?! I mean you are in the semifinals and you haven't use me yet." said Z."You are my secret weapon Z and I don't want anyone to see my secret weapon in action." said Bob.

"Bob. You should use Z in the next round." said Stella."Why? Did she bribed you?" said Damien."I feel like Bob should use her. I don't know why but you should Bob." said Stella."She bribed her." said the two men."Makes sense. Okay Z. Once we reached the mainland, we'll make a plan with Z." said Bob.
