After the trio of Ash, Iris, and Cilan travelled through the Decolore Islands, they then travelled with Ash until Cilan returned home. Iris travels with Ash more as she sees him like a brother. While walking down the road in Pallet Town, Ash, Iris, and Pikachu come across someone training his Pokemon and another person lying on a tree. As they get closer to the Pokemon battle cries, the trio pokes their heads out of the bushes.
"Wonder what's going on?" says Iris, staying close to Ash in case something terrible happens. Once their heads poked through the bushes, Ash was starstruck as he rushed out of the bushes, leaving behind a confused Iris and Pikachu, getting the two Pokemon Jolteon and Flareon's attention stopping in their tracks being startled then their owner looked at Ash's way just to be tackled to the ground also scaring the woman with the three "AAH...Who the?..." says the woman looking at her boyfriend and Ash with a sweat drop surprise look on her face.
Iris and Pikachu approach the woman to the apologist, but they all hear laughter from Ash and the man he tackled. "HAHA...It's great to see you again, little brother." says the man as he and Ash get off the ground. An Eevee appeared on Ash's shoulder, nuzzling him, "Great to see you again, Jaden." says Ash, looking up to his fifteen-year-old brother, who is taller than Ash with Jaden being around five feet and eleven inches tall then the two look back at the tree seeing Jaden's girl and Iris with Pikachu coming towards them.
Ash takes another look at the redhead woman and then goes into shock after he finally recognises the woman. "Ah...Flannery...What are you doing here?." Ash says, shocked. "Well, I'm here with my boyfriend," she says, giggling and pointing at Jaden. Ash, in anime style, falls to the ground with a sweat drop on his face, looking at his brother "H...How? When?." he says while Iris and Pikachu help him up, but Flannery can't help but chuckle at Ash "Well...It's sort of a long, long story, but we'll make it short." she says offer her hand to help Ash back on his feet. Jaden and Flannery explain that Jade returned to her gym after Ash left during the start of Black and White.
Flashback:
While Jaden returns to her gym in Lavaridge Town, he pretends to be a new challenger, which works perfectly for Jaden's plan to confess his feelings to her. Jaden, waiting on one side of the gym, finally sees Flannery coming to the other side, and in Goku's style manner, he waves his hand halfway in the air and then says, "Yo!." surprising her, she falls to the ground the surprise.
Flannery gets back up on her feet, then sweat drops and hunches over, pointing at Jaden. "Wha...What are you doing here?" she asks Jaden, but she only responds with a chuckle and rubbing the back of his head. "I'm here to challenge you," he smiles at her. "Yo...You must be here for a different reason, aren't you?." She asks him if she's right. She gets her answer as Jaden smiles and then nods, saying yes. "Yeah, I am here for a reason; if I win, I tell you why, but if you win, I leave you alone," he says to her, offering this challenge, which she accepts.
Jaden and Flannery ready their PokeBalls as the referee announces it will only be a one-on-one battle. Both throw their PokeBalls, sending out their first one, with Jaden's first choice being his trusty Jolteon and Flannery sending out Torkoal.
The battle lasted almost nine minutes, with Jaden being the victor of their struggle as the two recalled their Pokemon. Then Jaden walked over to Flannery, smiling at her while she blushed lava red after seeing how Jaden battles. Flannery had never felt anything for someone before, and her heart started beating rapidly as Jaden was now in front of her. Flannery looked at him and gulped, then she hardly got any words out. "S... So... What... Did... Y-You... Wanted... To... Tell me?." she asks him, hoping it's a question she wants to hear.
Jaden rubs the back of his head, blushing like a tomato. "We...Well...I was...Wondering...I.If You would...Like to go...on...on a date with me." he says while trying not to show his body is shaken or sweating at this. Still taken off guard by this, Flannery's face went from a tomato to a rose "Ye...Yes, I will." she smiles at Jaden while Jaden smiles, then walks up to her, kissing her on her cheek.
Flashback Ends:
"And so from that day onwards, we've been seeing each other quite often," says Flannery as she goes up to Jaden, laces her arms around his stomach and leans on his back, making Jaden blush mad, but he chuckles. Ash smiles at them, then says, "I'm happy you are together." He smiles at them as Iris and Pikachu still stand behind Ash, but he finally remembers they are there.
Ash then sweat drops and looks back at his brother once more. "Oh yeah!... This is my best friend, Iris," he says as he gently moves Iris in front of himself, introducing Iris to Jaden. "Pleasure to meet you, Iris," he says so reasonably that even Ash is shocked. Iris smiles, then bows. "It's a pleasure to meet you. Finally, Ash speaks highly of you." She says, smiling that she finally met Jaden after Ash talks about him on their journey.
Realising it was getting late, the gang headed back to Pallet Town. "So Jaden, are you still doing your dream to become an Eevee Master?" asked Ash while he was walking side by side with his brother while Flannery and Iris were walking ahead of them, getting to know each other, "Yeah, I am, but I've been busy staying with Flannery." he says then he looks at Ash noticing that he's a bit daydreaming "So? What's on your mind little brother?." he says snapping Ash out of his trance.
Ash tries to hide the blush coming to his face. "You were thinking about them again," Jaden asks his brother, but Ash can't help but chuckle and then nods. "I...I've been getting these feelings for them since they left me to do their things," he says, looking down and annoyed that he didn't get to tell his true feelings; then Jaden wraps his arm around Ash's shoulders. "Hey, don't worry, little bro; next time you see them, just tell them," he says, smiling at his brother, reassuring him that everything will be alright.
Ash looks up at his brother and then smiles. "You're right, Jaden. Next time I see them, I'll tell them how I feel about them," he says, smiling. Still, when Ash was about to look at his brother again to thank him for the boost, Ash changes from a smile to complete shock his face walking next to him is no longer his brother but his best friends May and Misty, with downright evil smirks on their faces leaning close to Ash. "Tell who, Ash." they both say to him.
Ash quickly looks around to see where Jaden has gotten to. Still, he spots him next to Flannery, Iris, and now Max, making Ash's face lava red, then slowly and shakenly, turning his head back to his closest friends, "Um...Um..." is all that Ash could say, and then he tries to run away. Still, both May and Misty grab him by his shirt, making the others in front laugh at this "comedy show".
Flannery, Iris, Jaden, Max, and Pikachu stop, waiting to see how the girls react to Ash's feelings. Still, Ash could hardly get any words out as both May and Misty waited for him to speak, "We...Well...I...Er." he said before he said anything else. May and Misty kissed each side of Ash's cheek, and then he yelled the words he wanted to say. "I..I...I HAVE BEEN IN LOVE WITH YOU BOTH TOO.! he says, looking down and having his hat covering his face, waiting to see what they would do.
May and Misty are struck by his words, making both the girls blush. May says, "It's time, Ash, we love you too." May clings to one arm of Ash. Misty does the same and then says to Ash, "Yeah...It's about time. We thought you didn't like us." she says before she puts her head down in shame. Ash kisses Misty's cheek. May's, "Well, we all should get going." he says, smiling at his girlfriends as all three rejoin the others.
As soon they get closer, Max approaches Ash and jumps up, pulling on his ear. "Ow...ow...ow," he yells, surprising them all. Then Max smiles at Ash. "Please don't hurt my sister," he says, letting go of Ash's ear, making him chuckle. "You know I wouldn't do that," he says, smiling and reassuring Max as the two embrace before heading back to Pallet Town. Upon arriving at Pallet Town, Ash and the others walked to his house, but then they heard muffled noises inside it. Ash noticed the front door was cracked open, but upon nearing the door, he could hear everything that was happening, which put a shock of horror on his face and made the others worry.
