Chosen One, Adrift with Legendaries (джен)

BB: I keep forgetting to ask, how are you finding the Orange Islands?
UT: they’re great!
UT: we’ve met some new friends, seen some new pokémon, and i’m on my way to the first gym!
UT: we also crashed two blimps, broke dialga, and i think kyogre is stalking me.
BB:
UT: so it’s pretty normal!
BB: Ash, that is so not normal I don’t even know where to start with you…
Ash Ketchum is fresh out of competing in the Indigo League, cheered on by both his human friends and the large cast of legendary Pokémon who were watching and commenting on the progress of his entire Kanto adventure. They weren’t supposed to interfere, but this being Ash, and they being bored, that lasted about three hours. Now Ash is tasked by Professor Oak to retrieve a mysterious artefact from his colleague in the Orange Islands. After everything that happened in Kanto, it’s safe to assume that this will totally go off without any problems and everything will be fine.
Or: It’s never safe to assume when the legendary Pokémon chatroom is involved.
Alternatively or: Having made multiple collisions and derailed, this canon train is heading straight into the sea.
