"So what are you going to do with the wedding?" Ash asks his siblings, and Minami says, "We are going with the Western Style wedding, even though we are born in the Eastern, but we think that a wedding gown is better than a Kimono."

"You think so?" Lillie asks with a little blush.

"Of course, now for the wedding place: This castle can be quite romantic when it comes to the wedding." Trenor says.

"So after the wedding ceremony, we have a Dance Ball, that is when we can have fun with the guests that we invited." Ash says, "But I think we should give them something in return..."

"How about a battle between you two? It will be great to show your thanks for attending by doing a full six-on-six battle." Insey says.

"That sounds like a good plan." Lillie says. "Not many people have seen the two of us battle. It will be a great experience."

At the same time, the Alolans, Gary, Dawn, Chloe, and Serena are sitting in the corner, Serena says, "I don't know why, but we don't know how to join in the conversation..."

Gary says, "Yeah, it seems like they have been planning this before they show their identity to the world. And with the knowledge of the United Region, our minds need some time to progress."

Gladion says, "I can tell, I also feel like the sister I knew for a lot of years...has become a stranger to me, just why did my mother hide the fact from me?"

"They are trying to protect you as Ash said?" Sophocles asks.

"So what did you guys think?" Lillie turns to the group, who flinched as they show confusion. Ash asks, "What's wrong? It seems like you are confused."

Gladion says, "First of all, you guys have already planned the wedding before we could know what is going on, so we don't know anything that you planned. Second, our minds are still processing the real you and Lillie, so you can see we are kind of having some headaches."

Those who know everything just laugh a little, Ash claps his hands and says, "Then how about we stop thinking about it? Why don't we try to do different things? How about we show you our Pokemon?"

"That will be nice to know." Dawn says as they all go to the ranch. Ash and Lillie actually have all the Pokemon there is, and some Pokemon are a mystery to the people who haven't seen them before.

After walking around their Pokemon territory of the Castle, Ash says, "Now that is all the Pokemon I have owned throughout these 9 years. What do you think about it?"

Gary says, "Dude, you really have a lot of them. What if someone gets inside and tries to take your Pokemon like those three idiots?"

"Three idiots?" Ash is confused at first, then he says, "Oh, you mean Jessie, James, and Meowth, right?"

"Well, they aren't idiots." Lillie says, somehow in an annoyed tone. "They have been helping us a lot in the journey to be fake villains."

"Seriously?" Serena asks. "How do you know about that?"

"In truth, Jessie and James aren't actually real characters in the world, in fact, they are actually our disguises." This causes them to get surprised. "Wait, you are those three?" Gladion asks.

"Yeah, but you know, being a self-centered bitch is not that easy..." Lillie says, "But it seems like we really act well."

This causes them to get a heart attack, then Ash says, "As for Meowth, let's say that he was also in the Pokemon territory with other Pokemon there."

"This is really weird...I can't believe all this time, you are trying to steal your own Pokemon?" Gary asks in shock.

"Yeah. But regardless of that." Ash says. "It is true that I need to be worried since those so-called friends that threatened to steal your Pokemon will try to get my Pokemon for greed."

"You mean Misty and the others?" Mark asks. "What will you do if they really come to this place?"

Ash says, "It is simple. I could teleport them back to their houses, but that will be too easy since they will be back with their own Psychic Type Pokemon."

"We have high electric fences, they are made by Ash and no one has been able to break it." Mark says. "They can't come inside the territory, so they won't know where the Pokemon are."

Sophocles says, "But what if they try to make machines inside the territory? Like some drone cameras or spying devices?"

Lillie says, "Well... if that happens. We just have to destroy them, being the Legendary Pokemon Arceus and the skilled Aura User, we have sensitive hearing to know if they are nearby. That's also how we could always find each other after we were blasted off by Pikachu's Thunderbolt."

"Okay..." The others are feeling weird at the things they have learned from the past hour, and they decide not to think about it.

Ash looks at the time on his watch, seeing the time and he sighs, "Well, it is about noon. Time does pass by very quickly..."

"You're right. We did a lot of things in the morning." Lillie says, "But I think we should try doing something else."

"So what are we going to do now?" Minami asks, and the others are sharing the same confusion.

"How about we go have lunch at the RPA? It has been a while since we eat together." Ash says. "Since we all have duties to do, it would be better if we hang out these days."

"I agree." Lillie says. "Brother, guys, do you want to come with us to RPA?"

"RPA is Ash's company, right?" Dawn asks. "But we don't know anything about it..."

"Don't worry, as you can see, RPA is the best company in the seven Southern Regions. It will be a shame if you didn't go there." Trenor says.

"My brother is right you know." Insey says. "The main Department store and the headquarters of the company are located just close here and you could see it from the balcony.

"Sure. Let's go check it out." Mallow says as they prepare their items and go there.

Unknown to Ash and the others, a glow appears in front of the castle as the traitors appear once more.

"It is a good thing my Gallade learns how to Teleport." Max says as he recalls his Pokemon.

"Yeah. It saves us a lot of time and money." Misty says with a fury that is related to the sudden teleportation.

"So this is the United Region...I can't believe we are actually here..." Clemont says. Then they see Ash and his friends walking on the road and chatting, then they decide to follow them to see what they're up to.

After walking for a couple of minutes, they are now at the front of the RPA company. Gladion and the ones who don't know about this company are shocked to see how big it is, and Serena says, "It looks just like a department store."

"Of course." Ash smiles. "After lunch, we can go have some fun inside. There are clothes stores, jewelry stores, and some other great places to go."

"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go inside." Minami says as they all head inside the store, and once they get inside, the traitors also arrive and Brock says, "So this is the company Ash owned..."

"It sure is big, just how much money did he use on this kind of thing?" Cilan says as they head inside.

As the group head to the restaurant, a Waitress comes and bows to them. She says, "President Ash, President Lillie. It is an honor to have you here."

"Give us a private suite so it can hold us all." Lillie says. "And maybe some quiet place as well."

"Yes. President. Please follow me." Then they go with the waitress. Gladion says, "Wait, Lillie? You are also the President? I thought it is only Ash's company..."

"Then you are wrong." Lillie says. "Ash and I are the Co-Presidents, not to mention Mother has also been helping out a lot with this company, the Aether Foundation is also one of the sponsors."

Once they all take a seat, they look at the menu and Dawn says, "Wow, there is a lot of food to choose from."

"They all look delicious, I don't know which one I should choose." Sophocles says while his mouth is watering.

Golly says, "It is common for the first time that you don't know what to choose, since the food here is as good as a five-star restaurant."

Minami says, "And besides, Brother is the one who designs the food."

"Well, we did manage to try out back at the Kanto Region, as he holds a feast so that the PLA and the RPA can have a meeting." Chloe says.

The traitors are having a table near their suite, Iris looks at the menu and says, "What the hell? All of the food is designed by Ash? And how was he able to cook that well?"

"Yeah. I still can't believe this restaurant is owned by him." May says.

Mallow asks, "But when can Ash cook? I remember that the last time I asked Ash for help in my family's restaurant, he had been ruining the kitchen and making some dishes that aren't edible..."

Trenor says, "Well, the Ash you know is actually a disguise that is meant to keep his own identity safe. But I think that Brother didn't think much when splitting himself, and that self didn't know how to cook. But in truth, brother is a good cook and he has been taught by Seibold and takes the cooking class in the Narauva Academy in the Paldea Region. If you don't know, Seibold is actually our uncle."

"You mean the Water Type Elite Four member in Kalos is related to you? That's so cool..." Serena gasps in shock.

Ash says, "It is obvious that family takes care of family. So teaching him how to cook is what we Ketchums need to learn."

"It sounds like the Ketchum family is that influential." Kiawe says.

Mark says, "Just so you know, without the Ketchum Family, there will be no Showcases as well as Contests. Mega Evolution, as well as the Legendaries, weren't going to be common in the world."

Dawn says, "I never knew that, I mean, I couldn't believe that the founder of contests is actually your mother as well."

The traitors are listening as Misty says, "The most influential family, huh?"

"No wonder he is being this respected." Goh says.

"Yeah, and being like a spoiled brat getting everything he wanted..." Max mutters.

Once the food arrives, they start to eat the delicious meal. They also chat on the way about stuff. After learning a lot of things from Ash's siblings, Serena asks, "Just how did you guys gain a lot of power? I mean, from what we have heard, you guys are capable of doing anything."

"Well, basically we Ketchums never give up until it is over. And we manage to push ourselves to limits." Ash says.

"So is there a Pokemon League in the United Region?" Gary asks.

"We don't have a League Challenge, but we have something much cooler. Each Region holds a flag of its type. By battling against the rulers, you can get the flag. By gathering all 18 of them, you'll have a chance to face either of us." Ash says. "Since we represent the Multitype Region here."

"That sounds interesting. It will be great to find it out." Gladion says as they nod.

And I'll end the first chapter of the RPA exploring here. I decide to go with my old version until I start to show around the United Region and its culture. I hope you understand.
