Here's yet another story from that crossover fiend:  Me, SAMAS.  

Story note(Pokemon):  This story assumes that the Pokemon story takes 
place 
on a large island in the Pacific Ocean.  The Pokemon League mentioned in 
the 
game and anime is the local league in Pokemon Island.  Having won the 
Local 
Championship, a trainer now has the right to compete in the GPL, or 
Global
Pokemon League.  Ash has beaten the Elite Four, and now sets off to find 
Gary
and face the world.  His main Lineup of Pokemon hasn't changed much so 
far, 
just some evolution, but he may have other Pokemon back at Prof. Oak's.  

Discriptions of attacks will be based on what I've seen on the show, or 
in th
case of attacks not seen of if it's just better, my own images I come up 
with
when I play the game.

Story Note(Ranma 1/2):  This takes place at the normal mid-times usually 
used
in Ranma fanfics.  There are quite a few differences, though:

Ranma is not cursed... yet (evil grin).  Instead, he lives at the Narima 
Dojo
/Gym with his sister Ranko.  

Genma lives with Nadoka, as he never made that stipid promise to make 
Ranma, 
"a Man amongst men."  He did swear to make him and Ranko the best 
Pokemon 
trainers in the world, however.  

Of course, Ranma has yet to visit Jusenkyo, and so far knows nothing 
about the
curses... Heh heh heh.  Of course, this means a new introduction for 
Shampoo.

Oh, and one other thing:  Seeing as how this is the Pokemon world,  I 
felt 
that the Nekoken was... inadequate.  (Evil Laughter)

Announcer:  "Ash and his friends, having defeated the Elite Four atop 
Indigo
Plateau, now set out beyond the shores of Pokemon Island to explore the 
world
and to compete in the Global Pokemon League."  

Ash dropped from Pidgot's claws to the sand below.  Behind him, Brock 
and 
Misty, former trainers of the Pewter and Cerulean City Pokemon Gyms, 
respectively, rode in on the back of Misty's Lapras.  

Pikachu dropped from Ash's shoulder and stretched, happy to be on solid 
ground once more.  "Pika!"  "See Pikachu,"  Ash said, "I told you not to 
worry too much!  Pidgeot knows what it's doing!"  Pidgeot cooed in 
agreement.  

Misty petted Lapras as Brock gratefully dismounted.  "Well, we wouldn't 
have 
to surf all this way to Japan if you could for once pick a ship that 
DOESN'T
get attacked by Team Rocket and sunk before it gets a few miles from the 
Island!"

Ash had the decency to look sheepish.  "Hey, it was only our second 
trip!  How
was I to know Team Rocket had the ship staked out again?"

"Hey, you two!"  Brock called.  "Let's find someplace to rest and wash 
this 
seawater out of out clothes, we're beginning to reek of salt!"

Pidgeot sniffed Ash and recoiled back.  "Pidgeot!" 

"Very funny!"  Ash replied, drawing his PokeBall.  "Pidgeot, Return!"  A 
beam
of light shot out of the white button on the front of the ball, striking 
the
large bird and pulling it into the waiting ball.  Ash clipped the ball 
to his
belt.  "Brock's right.  Let's go!"

Misty pulled out a map.  "It says here, that the nearest large city is 
Tokyo."

Ash moved closer to look.  "Hey, there's two Gyms in Tokyo!"  

"Cities on the mainland, even island nations like Japan, are much larger 
than
the ones back on Pokemon Island."  Brock explained.  "Some of the larger 
cities have two, three, or even four Gyms."

"Saffron City even used to have two Gyms,"  Misty added, "But Sabrina's 
Gym
beat the other in a battle, and they lost their Gym status.  Not to 
mention
Dark City."

"Oh yeah, I forgot!"  Ash said.  "Wasn't that the Fighting Dojo we heard 
about?  Maybe we should've gone there after I got the Marsh Badge."


Chapter One
Ash:  Nidorans, and a New Journey!


"Pika!"  Pikachu cried, pointing to some bushes.  "Pi-Pika!"  Ash turned 
around to see a rustling in the bushes.  Suddenly, a small, blue 
creature 
that resembled a spiked rabbit, but with large, round ears, emerged.  

"Hey," Ash said, pulling out his PokeDex.  "Isn't that..."

Dexter buzzed.  "Conflicting readings, cannot identify."

"Conflicting?  What's the strongest reading, then?"

"Female Nidoran."  Dexter chimed.  "A Poison Pin Pokemon.  The female of 
the 
species has smaller spines than the male."

There was another rustling, and another Nidoran arrived.  This one was 
purple,
with longer ears and larger spikes.  A small horn jutted from its 
forehead.

"Nidoran Male."  Dexter continued.  "This Rabbit-like creature has 
large, 
poisonous spines used for defense.  The males are very protective of 
their
mates."  

"Hey, cool!"  Ash exclaimed.  "I never got the chance to catch a pair of 
Nidorans!"  He pulled out another PokeBall.  "Bulbasaur, Pikachu, GO!"  
The 
ball opened, releasing a lizard or Dinosaur-like creature with a plant 
closed on its back.  "Bulbasaur!"

"PIkachu!"  Ash's Pokemon advanced on the two Nidorans.  The female 
jumped in 
front and rushed at Pikachu.  Pikachu leapt out of the way and shot a 
blast
of lightning at her.  (Author's note:  From here on, the Female Nidoran 
will
be refered to as Nido-chan.)  Nido-chan dodged and tackled Pikachu to 
the 
ground.  

"Bulbasaur, Razor Leaf attack!"  Ash commanded.  Bulbasaur complied, 
filling 
the air with deadly foliage.  Nidoran avoided the majority of the 
leaves, but
still recieved quite a few cuts.  Nitoran dashed forward and rammed 
Bulbasaur
with his horn.  Bulbasaur was knocked off its feet, but got up and shook 
it
off.  "Pikachu, Quick Attack!"  "Pikapika..."  Pikachu ran forward, 
moving 
almost too fast to be seen.  "...Chu!"  It struck Nido-chan with a 
flurry of 
hits as it ran by her.  

"Alright!"  Ash cheered.  "Now, Bulbasaur!  Leech Seed!"  A large seed 
popped
out of the bulb on the pokemon's back.  It shot forward, landing on 
Nidoran's
shoulder.  The seed sprouted into a tangle of vines that started to 
drain the
energy from him.  Ash pulled a Pokeball from his belt and threw it.  
"PokeBall, Go!"  The ball struck the Nidoran, drawing it in, and trying 
to 
contain it.  The ball rocked violently back and forth as the Nidoran 
tried to
escape.  

Bulbasaur walked over to inspect the ball as it jerked back and forth.  
It 
had never seen a Pokemon fight the ball like this, not even Primeape.  
"Bulba..."

Ash's attention was drawn as a cry from Pikachu alerted him.  Nido-chan 
was 
easily avoiding Pikachu's attacks, and was dancing around it's 
Thundershocks.
Nido-chan looked over and saw that Nidoran was still caught in the 
PokeBall.
her eyes seemed to glow red for a second, then it rushed at Bulbasaur in 
a 
rage.  "Nidoraaaaaan!"  Its claws seemed to blur as it attacked the 
Pokemon 
with a vengeance.  

"Bulbasaur, Return!"  Ash cried, sending the wounded Grass Pokemon back 
to 
it's PokeBall.  "Pikachu, Thunder!"  "Pika... CHUUUUUUUU!!!"  The small 
rodent released a HUGE bolt of electricity that hit Nido-chan dead on.  
She 
fell down, but got back to her feet, a blue aura forming around it.

Nido-chan brought her tiny paws together.  "Nido Nidoran!"  A ball of 
energy
formed between her paws and shot out, hitting Pikachu.  

Misty was shocked.  "How could a wild Pokemon learn an attack like 
that?"

Ash ran over to Pikachu's side.  "Pikachu, are you alright!"  "Pika..."  
Pikachu answered weakly, waving him off.  "Pikapi!  Pika pika!"  Pikachu 
pointed towards Nido-chan as she picked up the PokeBall containing the 
still-
fighting Male.  "Pidgeot, stop her!"  Ash cried, tossing out another 
PokeBall.
Pidgeot swooped on the small Pokemon, knocking her to the ground.  
"Pidgeot,
Razor Wind!"  Pidgeot furiously flapped its wings, then sent a cutting 
blast
out that seriously injured Nido-chan.  

Nido-Chan got back up and charged at Pidgeot, jumping up and blasting it 
with
a jump-kick to the face.  She ran back to the PokeBall and started 
yelling at
it.  Soon, the PokeBall burst open and Nidoran came out.  He squeaked 
something
back and kicked the female high into the air.  Unfortunately, this left 
him 
wide open for Pikachu's Thunderbolt.  Ash tossed the ball again, and 
waited 
anxiously as the ball rocked violently.  

"Man,"  Brock said, "He's still fighting!"

"These Pokemon are tough."  Ash replied.  Finally, the ball stopped 
moving and
the button light died out.  "YES!"  Ash cried, scooping up the ball.  "I 
caught Nidoran!"  

He was so happy, he didn't notice the falling Nido-chan until she landed 
on his
head.  "Ow!"  He pulled out another PokeBall and captured the unconcious 
female.  "And that makes two!"  

*************************************************************

Later that day, the trio(four, if you count Pikachu) arrived in the 
Nerima 
district in Tokyo for their first Gym battle, the Tendo Dojo.  The Gym 
was 
pretty small, as far as Pokemon gyms go, and was shaped like a Martial 
Arts
Dojo.  Next to it was a fairly large house that seemed to have quite a 
few
patches in the roof.  Oddly, Ash noted, if you looked close enough, some 
of
the patches looked roughly man-shaped.  

Ash entered the Gym and looked around.  In one of the large side rooms, 
a 
young boy wearing a large spatula on his back moved through a complex 
kata in
front of a group of trainers and their Pokemon.  Next to him, a 
Kangaskhan 
mimiced his moves perfectly.  Ash noticed that the Kangaskhan also had a 
large
spatula strapped to her back.  

Brock noticed somethig else.  "Why is she disguised as a boy?"  

The head trainer looked up.  "Hey, you three with the Pikachu!  Quit 
hiding
in the doorway and come out.  I won't bite."  "Kangas!"  "She might 
though, if
I tell her to."  The trainer rubbed the Pokemon's head affectonately.

Brock nearly stumbled through the door.  "H-Hello, miss!  I'm Brock, 
pleased
to meet you!"

The trainer blinked.  "How could you tell that I'm a girl?"  

"Don't mind him,"  Misty groaned, "Brock can tell a girl a mile away."

"Sometimes it's the only way we could find a town!"  Ash quipped.

The trainer smiled.  "Well, hello Brock.  I'm Kuonji Ukyo.  Who are your 
friends?"  

"Hi."  Ash said.  "I'm Ash!"

"And I'm Misty."

"Well then, welcome to the Tendo Dojo and Pokemon Gym.  What can I do to 
help 
you?"  

"I'm here to challenge you for a badge!"  Ash replied.

Ukyo chuckled.  "Honey, you've got the wrong trainer.  I'm just one of 
the 
Junior Trainers, You want Ranma and Akane."

"You have two leaders?"

"And you gotta beat them both to get the badge.  Ranchan only lets the 
best 
trainers walk away from here with one of our badges.  Or should that be 
limp?  Unfortunately, They're not here right now.  His father took them 
off
on a training trip.  The good news is, they're due back any time today!"

A voice called out from the front.  "Everyone, I'm home!"  a pretty 
young 
woman in her early twenties stepped into the gym.  "Oh my, we have 
visitors!"
The Chansey standing behind her waved cheerfully.  "Chansey!"

"Good afternoon, Kasumi, Chansey."  Ukyo waved back, "We got someone who 
wants to challenge Ranchan and Akane for a Badge, so they'll be staying 
around
until they get back."  

"So, Kid."  Ukyo continued, turning to Ash, "If you want to face Ranma, 
you 
have to take me on first.  Let's go to the Arena!"  

Ukyo and Kasumi led the group to another room, where a redheaded girl 
was 
practicing attacks with her Machop.  She was about the same age as 
Misty, but
was much more... built.  The most amazing thing to Ash was the fact that 
she
was training her Pokemon by fighting it herself.  The two of them were 
trading
punches, kicks, and blocks.  

"Hey, Ranko!"  Ukyo called, "We got a challenger!"

Ranko stopped, which opened her for a Mega Kick to the back.  She 
angrily 
turned and punted her Pokemon into the rafters.  "I said, NO CHEAP 
SHOTS!"

"Hey!"  Ash cried, "Don't treat your Pokemon like that!"

"Mind your own business!"  Ranko snapped.  Suddenly, Machop dropped down 
on 
top of her, but she stopped the attack with a single finger.  Machop 
dropped
towards the ground, but Ranko caught it and cradled it in one arm.  
"Besides,
no self-respecting Pokemon Trainer would really hurt her Pokemon.  Ain't 
that
right, Machop?"  "Machop!"  her Pokemon agreed.  Of course, if certain 
Pokemon
would _listen_ to their trainers," she continued, giving her Machop a 
soft rap
on the head, "They wouldn't get kicked around so much!"  She pulled a 
potion 
out of her pocket and gave it to Machop, who drank it eagerly.  "Now, 
what was
that about a challenger?"  

"Ash here wants to challenge Ranchan for a badge,"  Ukyo replied, "so I 
thought you might want to keep him busy."

Ranko looked Ash and Pikachu over.  "Kinda scrawny, but I think we can 
whip 
them into shape."  

"What?" "Pika!"

"Well?  Come on, prove yourself!"  Ranko taunted, setting Machop down.  
"Machop just got warmed up, let's go!"

"I'll show you who's Pokemon is scrawny!  Wartortle, I choose you!"

The two Pokemon faced off on the training floor.  

"Wartortle, Water Gun!"  Wartortle spat out a high-pressure blast of 
water,
but Machop sidestepped the attack and ran in undr Wartortle's range.

"Low Kick!"  Ranko cried.  Machop went into a slide, lashing it's foot 
out and
tripping Wartortle.  Wartortle dropped to the ground, stunned.  "Now, a 
Seismic Toss!"  Machop picked Wartortle up and jumped towards the roof, 
then
hurled the Pokemon to the floor.  

"C'mon, Wartortle!  Ash cried, "Show him what you can do!  Bubblebeam!"

"WAR!"  Wartortle cried.  It's eyes glowed a deep aqua and it opened its 
mouth.
a beam of blue light, surrounded by bubbles of various sizes, struck 
Machop in
the shoulder as it tried to dodge.  

Machop, covered in a layer of sticky foam that hindered it's movements 
somewhat, managed to close in to Wartortle and get behind it.  Machop 
grabbed
Wartortle in Submission hold, but the turtle's struggles ended up 
hurting 
Machop almost as much as Wartortle.  

The two Pokemon threw each other away and faced each other.  Wartortle 
was 
definitely looking worse for wear, and even Machop was showing some 
serious
stress.

"Finish 'em off, Machop!"  Ranko commanded.  

"Here he comes, Wartortle!"  Ash warned, "Keep your head down!"

Machop came around with a Mega Kick, but Wartortle ducked it's head into 
it's
shell.  Machop tried another kick, but Wartortle bent over and it's head 
shot 
out, hitting Machop squarely in the stomach and knocking it into the 
wall.
Machop slumped to the floor, unconsious.

"Damn!  Machop, return!"  Ranko fumed for a moment, than calmed down and 
turned
to Ash.  "Alright, ya won.  Not bad, for a boy."

Ash smirked.  "I beat you, didn't I?"

"Don't get cocky, kid."  Ukyo said, "You fight me next.  Two Pokemon 
each, no
switching out during the match."

"I'm ready!"  Ash said.

"Win this and I'll cook dinner for all three of you.  Kangaskhan, Let's 
go!"
Ukyo tossed her ball out, and the large Pokemon sprang out.  Kangaskhan 
pulled
the spatula off her back and tossed it to the side.  "Kangas..."  

"Khan!" the baby in her pouch finished.  

One of the PokeBalls on Ash's belt suddenly dropped to the ground and 
opened.
Ash jumped back as a large, Dragon-like creature materialized.  
"Charizard!  
what are you doing!"

"CHAR!"  It roared.

Ash shook his head.  Ever since that incedent with the Aerodactyl in 
that cave,
when Charmeleon evolved, Charizard had been one of his most troublesome 
Pokemon.  For a time, it was completely uncontrollable, only fighting 
when it
wanted to, wether Ash needed him or not.  Charizard had calmed down 
considerably since then, but would still burst out when it sensed a 
strong 
Pokemon it wanted to fight.  "Alright, You can take her on, but next 
time, 
don't come out unless I say so!"

Charizard nodded, but Ash noticed a look in it's eyes that seemed to 
say, 
"We'll see..."  It turned to the larger Kangaskhan and snarled.  
Kangaskhan
growled back, and without waiting for a signal, both monsters charged.  
They
collided with an impact that nearly shook the room.  Charizard stepped 
back
and whipped it's tail around, burning Embers flinging off of it.  
Kangaskhan
fought through and clocked Charizard with a Mega Punch to the chest.  
She tried
to follow through with a Tail Whip, but Charizard ducked and shot her in 
the 
face with a Flamethrower attack.  

Ash and Ukyo stared as their Pokemon battled without any guidance.  Both 
Charizard and Kangaskhan seemed to naturally dislike each other.  

Kangaskhan steeled herself, then swatted Charizard with her tail.  She 
then
hit it with a flurry of Comet Punches to the jaw.  Charizard Slashed her 
across the face with it's claws, and showered her with Embers.  

"Time to finish this, Charizard!"  Ash cried.

"End it, Kangaskhan!"  Ukyo commanded.

"Fire Blast!"

"Thunder Attack!"

Charizard drew in a great breath as Kangaskhan in her child built up 
electrical
energy.  They released at the exact same time, and their attacks slammed 
into
each other.  Kangaskhan was engulfed in a gout of ultrahot flames while 
Charizard found itself on the recieving end of a lightning bolt that 
would've
made a Zapados proud.  

After the attacks finally subsided, There was a pregnant silence as the 
two
Pokemon stood perfectly still, like a pair of scorched, blackened 
statues.
A full minute later, both of them fell backwards with a crash.  The baby
Kangaskhan coughed out a tiny puff of smoke.  

"I guess... that makes it a draw then."  Misty said finally.

Ukyo and Ash blinked.  Twice.

"Okay,"  Ukyo said, recovering. "for my next Pokemon, I pick 
Charmander!"

"I can beat that!"  Ash said confidently, "Nidoran Female, GO!"  

Nido-chan popped out of the ball and skidded to a halt.  She looked at 
her 
opponent, and then her surroundings.  Her face lit up as she looked 
around.
When her eyes came upon Ukyo, she squealed and ran towards her, stepping 
off
Charmander's head, and leaping into her arms.  Another ball dropped from 
Ash's waist, and Nido-chan jumped out of Ukyo's arms.  

"Hey!"  Ash protested, "What's going on here?  Those aren't your 
Nidorans, are
they?"  

"No."  Ukyo replied as Nido-chan released the Male from the other 
PokeBall.
"There aren't any Nidorans anywhere near Tokyo!"  

The Nidorans chattered among themselves for a moment, then ran out of 
the 
arena.  The group followed them, and got outside to see evidence that 
the 
Nidorans had just burst through the door to the Tendo's house.  When 
they 
reached the sitting room, they heard the sounds of a commotion upstairs.  

As Ash reached the steps, a boy and a girl both came down the stairs.  
They
were both around Ukyo's age.  The boy was wearing a dark green Chinese 
shirt
and black pants, while the girl was wearing a blue blouse with a yellow 
skirt.

"We're home." the boy said sadly.

"Ranchan?"  Ukyo asked.

"You're Ranma?"  Ash added.

"Yeah,"  Ranma replied. "I'm Ranma Saotome, and this is Akane Tendo."

"Sorry about this..."  Akane said weakly.

======================================================================

I said it would be here, and here it is.

C&C on this would be greatly appreciated.
