Future Life, Future Teachers

Equestria. Ponyville. Twilight's Castle. Afternoon.

Flora Ponies were currently within Twilight's Castle. Going by the names Daisy and Paradise, they roamed around Twilight's castle with high levels of curiosity. Following them in case something goes wrong were Twilight, Ash and Spike respectively, following the trail of flowers that these Flora Ponies left behind when using their Flower Transporation. Eventually, Daisy and Paradise would converge in the same room, reuniting Ash, Twilight and Spike.

And with Daisy being rather unaware of the rest of the world, she would eye down a pile of Poke Balls that were laid on the table. Her head was raised to the level of the table with her special eyes locking onto these revolutionary objects. She would pause for a moment, recognizing the Poke Balls as she has been multiple of them being thrown back at Saddle Lake when she was just a plant.

"Hmm..." Observing the Poke Balls, Daisy immediately thought about how everyone would throw them and a Pokemon would emerge from it. Curious about them, she would raise her hoof, summoning flowers out of it once more instead of grabbing it. She had her own way of grabbing whatever she wanted and that was with a stream of daisies.

Raising the Poke Balls up with her flowers, Daisy's next instinct was to devour them, for whatever reason. Lost about what she wanted to do since she was so new to the world, consuming the Poke Balls seemed like a logical option here.

"Oh, wait! That's not food!" Twilight would quickly drag them away from Daisy by using her magic. "Geez...Why was that your first instinct? You've seen us use the Poke Balls before and you want to eat them?"

"You're not? Sorry, mom. I wasn't sure what I wanted to do with them. I'm still feeling happy after all that food I ate." Daisy apologized, lowering her head before pouting. Twilight grimaced as Daisy put on a rather disheartening look on her face.

"Uh..." Twilight scrunched her face as she felt a bit of guilt speaking to Daisy that way. "Well, you're still new to the world, so I don't blame you, Daisy." It's just that the Poke Balls aren't for eating. They serve other purposes." Twilight gathered the Poke Balls. "And I'm not your mom."

"But you are." Daisy rubbed her hoof, still insisting on calling Twilight Sparkle her mother. Twilight would put on a poker face right afterwards before shaking her head.

"Okay...I guess that's not changing." Twilight sighed. "Alright. Since you're going to live here, we need to lay some ground rules first. You've already tried eating a lot of things when you get here and you almost got my pen. Not everything here is food and I can tell you what it is and what isn't. Understand?"

"I understand." Daisy nodded. "But what am I supposed to do? I don't know why I'm here..."

"Same here." Paradise walked over. "I mean...I don't know what I'm doing here but I know what I wanna try."

"Well, I would say I made you two by accident but that would be too harsh. I'm the one who put the elixir onto the flowers in the first place. You don't exactly have a purpose in life rather than just pure curiosity..."

"And it's a lot of fun...I can do almost anything!" The Flora Pony excitedly said before slamming her hooves on the table. Suddenly, Daisy would touch the table where the Poke Balls rested, suddenly enveloping them all in flowers. Twilight gasped as her tables were full of daisies, completely coated in them.

"Gaah!" Twilight screeched after the table had been consumed by the daisies. There was barely a semblance of it left except for the shape. Now there was a flower table within her castle and it wasn't even minimal decorations. Every side and surface had been covered.

"Oops." Daisy pulled back, looking at her hooves. "I didn't mean to do that..."

"Okay...the ability to cover things in flowers. Good to know..." A stunned Twilight Sparkle said before writing down new notes about the Flora Ponies. "Um...Let's be careful with that, please? I don't want everything being covered in daisies, even though that would look beautiful."

"You can make a pretty sweet garden with something like that. Same with you, Paradise." Ash said to Daisy and Paradise. "You can do it too, right?"

"I think so." Paradise looked at her hoove before touching a window. That window would be blocked off by an array of Paradise Flowers.

"Sweet!" Ash loved this but Twilight had a different opinion.

"My window! Ash!" Twilight growled at Ash as another part of her castle had been covered in flowers. Thankfully, they weren't being replaced by flowers. It was only a matter of them being covered.

"Hehe!" Ash giggled, rubbing his hair while looking to the side.

"Alright. New rule. Please don't just cover everything in flowers." Twilight would share some more ground rules for the Flora Ponies. "And that goes for outside too. Unless you're in a field, garden, forest or anywhere with a ton of flowers. Be careful with that kind of magic. If that is magic."

"Yes, mom." Daisy and Paradise both said with low tones, heeding Twilight's rules.

"But if you wanna make something look good, go ahead. Just make sure it's the right thing and then go wild." Ash encouraged them to use it whenever they felt like beautifying something.

"Ooh!" The Flora Ponies would have their eyes shoot up after Ash brought some encouragement their way.

"You must use your abilities responsibly. That way, you can keep yourself and others safe." Twilight continued. "That involves no pushing, Paradise. Unless it's absolutely necessary. Understood?"

"Yeah, yeah I get it," Paradise replied. "Ash already told me that. But I wanna hurry and do something already."

"Same here!" Daisy pranced on the spot, either to get involved with something. All these two have been doing is moving around, looking and occasionally trying to eat something. "What about those Pokemon? We see them all the time whenever you showed up at Saddle Lake."

"Mhm. We'd love to try our hooves with them. The way you throw them and a Pokemon flies out is so amazing!" Daisy giggled with glee. "Especially you, Ash. Your battles are so much fun!"

"Glad you asked." Granting them their wish, Ash held out two Poke Balls. "Here you go. Two Poke Balls for you two." The two Flora Ponies would then excitedly grab the Poke Balls as fast as they could, this time with their hooves. "There aren't any Pokemon inside. Those are empty ones. But you can get started with catching your first Pokemon."

"Really? Thank you so much!" Daisy would happily hug Ash's leg, having impressive physical strength that caught him off guard, making his leg twitch.

"Gh! N-No problem...I can teach you a lot of stuff about Pokemon while you're here. Let's make that the first thing you can really get involved with."

"I've got something better," Twilight spoke. "Tomorrow, I'm heading over to the Pokemon School. I think now is a good time to let these two join it. That's where they'll see a lot about Pokemon."

"Aw...But we wanna learn with Ash." The Flora Ponies groaned, shifting their favouritism to learning with Ash. "We don't wanna go to school..."

"Eh?" Twilight pulled back. She was surprised that they even knew about the concept of school. But then again, with how many ponies show up- at Saddle Lake, the Flora Ponies, despite being new to the world, have a lot of vocabulary on them. This made them easier to chat with but they also had child-like tendencies and mannerisms to them. "But you can learn a lot more over at the Pokemon School and get a ton of information there. All the teachers will help."

"Come on, Twilight. Just for today, we can teach 'em some stuff and they'll be ready for tomorrow. We'll drop them off together too." Ash insisted, choosing the side of the Flora Ponies.

"Fine...Just for today and tomorrow, it's off the Pokemon School. Which I also attend." Twilight sighed. "It's just that this kind of education can't be missed. I remember how excited I was when I first went to school. I wanted to be the best student I could possibly be."

"Have two more." Ash dropped off two more Poke Balls to them. "An extra pair, just in case." At this point, the contrast between how Ash and Twilight treated the Flora Ponies was stark. Ash was encouraging, ready to spoil them with everything related to Pokemon and indulge in their quest of curiosity. Meanwhile, Twilight, knowing how special these Flora Ponies were, wanted to keep things safe for them and her own castle. But she would still show kindness to them, only wanting the best.

"Make sure you don't spoil them, Ash." Twilight chuckled. "Anywhere...I'll whip up a new room for you two to sleep in. You um...can sleep, right? I mean, I don't know if flowers sleep so I'm not sure about Flora Ponies."

"Even if they can't sleep, they'll have a room that they can hang out in," Ash added. "How's it gonna look since it's gonna be both of them? Are they gonna share a room or..."

"They'll share. It's best to keep them together since they understand each other. It'll look like every other room here, Ash. Full of crystals." Twilight rubbed her hoof on the walls. "Glistening beautifully in the moonlight."

"Oh! I want mine to be pretty like that!" Daisy bellowed, startling Twilight. "C-Can we choose what it looks like"?

"Yeah, I wanna choose!" Paradise nodded with great enthusiasm. "Can we choose, Ash?"

"Sure you can. Say the word and we'll make it happen." Ash agreed. "Whatever you two wanna have, we'll make it possible."

"We will." Twilight smiled as she was on the same page as Ash, finally. "You have a lot of catching up to do and you'll have us and your teachers to help you through it. That goes for our Pokemon as well."

"Pikachu!"

"Espeon!"

"Hmm..." Spike chose to observe this for himself, staying silent in all of this. When seeing Ash and Twilight's ways of interacting with the Flora Ponies, he couldn't help but see how perfect this was. Ash's sense of freedom and fun combined with Twilight's sense of education plus cultivation was a good balance. They needed it for new they were to everything.

Ash and Twilight would immediately get them started. The Flora Ponies did have some knowledge on Pokemon after the events that constantly take place over at Saddle Lake but they had a long way to go.


Nightfall had arrived at last. And for the Flora Ponies, they would find their new room that Twilight made for them. Right now, it was merely a blank slate, resembling every other room here. But soon, it would be decorated into something that would suit them.

"When you're at school tomorrow, by the time you get back, this room's gonna look the way you want it to look. Get some rest first though. If you can..." Ash scratched his face, pondering for a moment. "You guys eat sunlight, right?"

"Mhm." Daisy and Paradise collectively said.

"So what about the moon? Do plants eat the moonlight?" Ash wondered.

"Plants don't eat moonlight, Ash. It's only Sunlight. Moonlight just isn't bright enough for them. But I don't think that'll be an issue for you two." Twilight confirmed. "Have a wonderful first night's sleep, alright?"

"Uh...How do you do this?" Daisy went up to the bed, poking her head against it. The concept of lying down seemed to escape her. That also applied to Paradise who stand on the bed instead of lying down.

"They'll get used to it." Ash said. "If you can't sleep, talk about what you guys love to do. I gotta head home.
"
"You're not going to stay, Ash?"

"Nah. I've got my own home back at Pallet Town. But you'll see me again." Ash reassured. "I'll always be around when you need me. And we'll have a ton of fun the next time we meet. For now, Twilight, Spike and their Pokemon are gonna be around you. And Starlight and Hatterene too. You can count on them. See ya tomorrow."

"Pikachu."

"Sleep tight, okay?" Twilight would be the last to leave as it was now just Daisy and Paradise in this room. Silence entered the room with the remaining sounds being Twilight's hoofsteps.

On their own, it was just these two Flora Ponies. While their day hasn't been the most eventful it could be, it was a curious one. Brought into this world by the power of the elixir, they may appear as adults and have been around for a long time when they were just regular flowers, there was still a lot to learn and take in.

Stuck to Saddle Lake their entire life, they've seen a handful of battles, ponies and Pokemon show up. And now with the ability to move, their freedom reached new heights.

"Hey, Paradise...Can I call you sister?" Daisy asked before finally learning how to lie down, mimicking the Pokemon when they fall over.

"Sister? I guess we are, aren't we? What's up?" Paradise would soon fall asleep as well.

"What do you wanna do after this? I mean...what can we do?"

"Anything. Anything we want. We get to walk, run, grab, jump and do whatever everyone else can do. We're pretty free right now, Daisy." Paradise brought out all the positives from this. And they were hefty and abundant. "It's still weird being here, isn't it?"

"It is. But I love it." Daisy smiled before closing her eyes, attempting to put herself to sleep. "I get to finally speak with those who were so interesting to watch. And they're so wonderful. Especially mom and Ash, right?"

"Mhm. Ash is pretty cool, giving us these." In Paradise's hooves, she would hold up the Poke Ball Ash lent her. "I can't wait for tomorrow."

"Same here..." Daisy would yawn as she was truly capable of falling asleep. After yawning, the Flora Pony would put herself to sleep. Soon Paradise would fall asleep minutes after her sister clocked out.

When falling asleep, the beds they rested on would start blooming, slowly being covered by their respective flowers. Daisies and Paradise Flowers would bloom on the beds without them knowing and with no control over this. The sheets would be decorated beautifully by these flowers before they then spread across the floor.

Perhaps this blooming mess was perfect for the peaceful sleep they had. It was truly a Flower Bed at this point, befitting these Flora Ponies.


Equestria. Canterlot. The Pokemon School. Day.

A new day had arrived and it was another to learn at the Pokemon School. And for Daisy and Paradise to start their first day. Bringing them here would be Ash and Twilight as it would be on Dragonite instead of the Canterlot Train.

In the skies, Ash's Dragonite would carry Ash, Pikachu, Twilight and the Flora Ponies, showing these newly-created ponies the beauty of the world from a wonderful angle. The rolling and verdant fields along with the forests that dotted the land were theirs to witness.

"That was the best ride ever!" Daisy cheered as she and Paradise enjoyed that greatly.
"I know right? Having Dragonite bring us here was a good call.

"I was going to choose the train which would've introduced you to everypony else but...this works too." Twilight shrugged. Originally, she would've had them go on the train as usual, but Ash wanted to show them wonders on their first day to school. And what better than on a Dragonite? Granted, this meant that Daisy and Flora would not meet Ash and Twilight's friends along the way, but they would in here.

"Thanks, Dragonite. Return." Ash would return Dragonite afterwards. Upon arriving, Daisy and Paradise would face the school that stood before them. Entering this school were many students, young and old, having a lot more about the Pokemon World to learn. There was never enough.

"Take this you." Ash would then hold out his bag, lending it to both Daisy and Paradise. "I had my mom make some food just for you. You don't have your own bags, so share this with each other. You'll find a lot to eat inside. Just go after the food only, okay?"

"Are you sure?" Paradise asked after being given Ash's bag, which even surprised Twilight. "This is yours...Don't you go everywhere with it?"

"Until you get your own, which might be tomorrow, this is yours. So go ahead. And have fun too. I'll be nearby the school, okay?" Ash backed away, giving his best luck to them all. Twilight, who was also here to attend, would lead the way, being the perfect guide for them.

As for the ongoings within the Pokemon School, away from the Flora Ponies getting ready to experience their first day, most of the teachers had gathered in the library where other students could be found. Drayden, Roxanne, Roxie, Brawly, Olympia, Valerie and Volkner had all shown up for today.

"Well, after what Princess Celestia reported, I think we're getting closer to reaching Fantina at this point," Roxanne spoke, bringing up Fantina, who was still missing. How could they not bring her up considering how beloved she was? "I can't wait...And I hope when we find her, she'll be in one piece."

"Of course she will," Olympia reassured. "Fantina may not look like it, but she is a survivor. In her own unique way, of course. And when she returns, it will call for some celebration."

"Indeed. Though, she may be perplexed by the changes that have been made. Getting back to Sinnoh won't be easy for her. But I trust you can escort her back, Volkner.

"Yeah, I can do that." Volkner casually said. "I mean, it took me a while to get here. I'm lucky to be the last Gym Leader in my region. Same goes for you, Drayden."

"Well, we won't have to worry about that for long." The Mayor of Opelucid shook his head. "Changes have been made now that this new world exists...And soon the Pokemon School will have to go through those changes as well. Without us."

"Hm? What do you mean by that?" Roxie was lost on this. "What do you mean without us?"

"This school was made to be a place for species across Equestria to come and learn. A stronghold of our worlds uniting before Jirachi made that a reality." Olympia explained. "The truth is...by the time we showed up, everyone here already had their fair share of Pokemon knowledge."

"They have Ash to thank for that," said Valerie. "That also applies to Hollow and a few others. They were caught up with a few things but there is still a lot for them to learn. But maybe that can be found on their travels."

"Precisely. Most, if not all of us expanded our knowledge of Pokemon by exploring the world. Maybe in our own regions or even other regions. Ash certainly has. As such, some of these ponies will have to do the same. Actually, they already have, now that I think about it. Of course, this doesn't apply to the younger ponies and new species that will show up." Drayden crossed his arms, going into further detail but had yet to bring up his previous sentence.

"Yeah, I get that but what do you mean without us?" Roxie asked.

"Well..." Drayden stood up. "We won't be teachers here for long, Roxie. The distance from our regions to here is vast, as you can already tell. But even before that, we wouldn't have been teachers in this school for that long."

"Cynthia herself hasn't been around here for that much, even after accepting the position as principal. She's too busy getting out there to be here most of the time. Jasmine is too busy with herself to even bother showing up and who knows what Candice is up to. The same goes for all of us." Olympia continued Drayden's sentence. "This school was assigned to us Gym Leaders and Elite 4 Members because of our knowledge, but eventually, there will be new teachers who will take our positions. Possibly from Equestria."

"No way...We won't be around them anymore?" Roxie was shaken up about this, nearly dropping her guitar. "That blows...A lot."

"It does." Brawly sighed. "But I guess it makes sense. We're exhausting ourselves trying to make it here constantly. Who's gonna take our spots though?"

"Anyone well-versed in Pokemon and lives within Equestria. Truthfully, I believe Twilight herself would make a great teacher for the future generation. Wouldn't you all agree?" Olympia suggested Twilight. There was some bias there since she did teach Twilight a few tricks.

"Whoever they end up being, I can trust that they will take good care of the school for us," said Drayden. "But before any of that can happen, let's continue to teach everyone here what we know. And when the time comes for us to retire and leave it in the hooves of capable Equestrians, we'll be ready to depart. But that's not to say we won't come back. Equestria is far too interesting to just leave behind."

"Indeed." Valerie vehemently agreed. "Some unique memories have spawned from this land. The Pokemon School itself will grow into something bigger one day. Bigger for students and bigger for Equestria."

"And hopefully, before that happens, Fantina will show up again." Roxanne stood up. "I suppose we're all fine with the future now, right?"

"If it means I get to come back here and rock out with them, then sure." Roxie held her hand out. "I'm fine with it. It's not like I'm never gonna come back, after all."

"Same here." Brawly placed her hand on Roxie's. "I can find some sweet waves in this place. I mean, I've yet to try out Pegalysium and the Sea Cloud that they have. I wonder what that's like..."

"Then it's settled." Drayden and the others would add their hands, coming into full agreement. "For now, let's stay with our students and teach them everything they need to know. And more importantly, keep them safe."

"Right." The other Gym Leaders would say in unison, coming to a full agreement. One day, they would no longer be teachers here due to their occupations as Gym Leaders, the other jobs they have and the distance from their regions and Equestria. An understandable flaw but it wouldn't bother them too much, even if it did sting. They've grown to love it here, coming to this school back and forth to meet with everypony and teaching them new things.

The torch would have to be passed on as always. And that torch would burn bright for those born and raised in Equestria, holding a great ordeal of Pokemon Knowledge. After coming to that agreement and before they could split up, Volkner's Rotomphone would start ringing.

"Hold on. Volkner took out this Rotomphone, seeing what it had to share today.

"An Ultra Class battle is nearby. Do you accept?" The Rotomphone asked as this was another Pokemon World Championships match in the waiting.

"Well, would you look at that..." Volkner smiled before seeing who his nearby challenger was. Someone who was already in the Ultra Class for a while since last year. It was none other than Ash. "Looks like it's about time I challenged Ash. I picked a great time to show up here and for him to be nearby. I hope you're ready for our second match, Ash."

Volkner would accept this. And now it was a matter of Ash accepting this nearby World Championship Match. But knowing Ash, how could he deny it?

With a limited time of them being at the Pokemon School, paving the way for new teachers and more species to learn about the wonderful world of Pokemon, the Gym Leaders would make the most of their time. And for some, an imminent battle such as this was one way to do it as the journey continues.
