World Relief - Kanto

Summary:

Ash gets a phone from Mew and added to a group chat to save the world, repeatedly. Fairly standard Ash chatfic, just by a terrible writer

Chapter 1: New phone who dis?

Notes:

I hope to add more non chat parts and have this be a combination of chatfic and not chatfic, but at the same time I have never written before and when I started out with that I got like 10k words in and realized Ash still didn't have his Pikachu, so I decided to hold back.
A general understanding of Pokemon, specifically the anime is needed to understand everything.
Give me feedback, I have never written before.
Don't get too hung up on the details of the game map, or even on what can be figured out through the anime, as they aren't the same and I am primarily going to do what benefits me the most.
Will have some ships, but I don't think any will receive too much focus.
Some of the things in this are inspired by works I have read before, but I can not remember any of the origins for these, but if I notice one while re reading fics, then I'll try to add it afterwards.

Mental: I must ask you do not add me to your group chats, no matter how big of a fan you are, it would be unprofessional for me to stay in such things.

The ancestor: The world is fated to be under the constant threat of destruction, with one trainer being the only human whose personal fate is strong enough to act as a balance.

The ancestor: I don't want to have to deal with humans so I'll go through the basics so that I can ignore you all for a year without needing to worry. First things first, Don't too many of you gather at any given event. Fate is… fickle to say the least, so if too much positive fate that isn't strongly connected gathers at one location with a strong negative fate, the world will try to compensate.The next important thing to note is that, outside of those with a strong connection to the hero, do not carelessly add to or mention this chat. From your perspectives this is merely some chat on a human made social media, but that is not what it actually is, this chat is actually a mental pathway made by Arceus and given a physical form to be easier to digest for you, which means this chat affects the world fate to some degree as is. The degree of this mental link's ability to change fate is minimal as Arceus is tied into fate too tightly for their power to affect fate to a substantial degree. Those who have little to no ties to whether humanity survives will increase this chat's influence on fate more, which will not benefit you. As I said, this chat is mental, meaning thoughts, so when speaking of it try to be vague, as if those of whom are disconnected from humanity's fate get a good grasp of this chat, that means they will be somewhat connected to it, and increase it's influence.Lastly, none of you are random people, all of you have influence over your regions and the world as a whole, so do not let your pride get in the way of not dying.

The ancestor: Anyways, good luck, good night, and goodbye.

Mental: Just because you pasted a long message doesn't mean I will read it.

Mental: How have you blocked me from leaving this chat?

Star: You might want to read that message

Star: If true, it is worrying

Star: And I am champion so it would make sense I'd be added if this is real

Hero: Why did Mew just give me a strange phone?

Pest: Is mew that weird floating pink feline pokemon that just appeared and threw this thing at me

Hero: Sounds like Mew

Hero: Img_001

Folktale: A pokedex with a scanned Mew… Arceus is this real?

Sun: Hero, are you perchance in Viridian City?

Hero: How did you know?

Sun: I recognize that room. On an unrelated note, you didn't happen to be involved in the center blowing up, were you?

Hero: It's not my fault, they were trying to steal the pokemon, and how was I supposed to know Pikachu's thundershock would cause an explosion when it hit a smog

Sun: Ash?

Wrath: This report is real?

Folktale: Are the pokemon okay?

Star: A center got blown up?

Mental: How did that happen?

Pest: Is Joy okay

Hero: Yeah my name's Ash, how did you know. I don't know what report. I can't say about team rocket's koffing, ekans, and meowth, as they got sent flying high in the sky, but all the others were okay. A lot had been sent to Pewter, so only those further back remained, and the explosion happened in the lobby so the further away parts of the center are in fairly good shape. 2 crazy people and a talking Meowth come through the ceiling, and try to steal the pokemon; this girl, who I think hates me, fought them for a bit, then my Pikachu came out after being healed and we joined, their koffing used smog as we combined the elctricity from dozens of pikachu into one and blast them, the smog then suddenly went boom. Yes she is.

Sun: I'm a regular at the diner, there was a betting pool on how far you'd get before causing trouble, Kallen wins I think once they find out you blew up a center, and I assume the Hero is just starting his journey, in which case how many fresh trainers in Viridian have a Pikachu the same day the season started

Hero: Can you keep this a secret, I don't want Kallen to win

Sun: They'll just grill your mom to find out, and she's terrifying so do you really plan on lying?

Mental: I still can't tell if this chat is real

Sun: When you wake up in the morning there will likely be news articles to prove the center got blown up at least, but even so, here, an aerial view of the destroyed center Img_151

Sun: So either this chat is real, an absolutely bonkers coincidence happened, or you were added to a chat for people planning terrorist attacks, which you should probably stick around for, do some champion work, right Diantha?

Mental: ?

Sun: Acted extremely politely and assumed this chat was made by ravenous fans, the number of people who could receive a name like Mental while being someone trusted with humanity's prosperity, and having the influence outlined by who I assume to be Mew, or at least a legendary. Most also would have a better name as most would fall under the category of major psychics. You are a minor psychic, also none of our names seem strictly positive, so adding someone who isn't entirely mentally stable to the earlier criteria leaves the Kalos champion, and maybe some of the wasteland's overlords, none of whom I think have quite enough influence tho

Hero: Wasteland?

Sun: The regions next to Unova that are desolate and ruled by criminal organizations, a number of which openly do so

Sun: Also, Ash, go to bed. You now have a pokemon you're responsible for, so not only do you need sleep for your own health, if you're awake your pokemon are less likely to sleep which isn't good for their health, especially if what the Professor said about Pikachu disliking it's ball is true Sun: Also I'll tattle

Hero: Fine

Hero: Good night

Folktale: Good night

Sun: Good night

Star: Still daytime, but good night

Star: To each their own I guess

Sun: Viridan City is in Kanto, it is quite late here

Wrath: I hope you have a good sleep.

Mental: Folktale is Cynthia, Wrath Lance, Shale is Steven, Star is Leon, Pest is Alder, and you Sun are Professor Oak.

Mental: Also good night

Sun: Wrong

Sun: @Wrath gotta love that this happened while the gym leader was away

Wrath: I won't be getting any sleep.

Sun: Tell Oak that since one of his trainers caused it he should deal with the cleanup

Wrath: That's a good idea.

Wrath: Professor Oak is tech illiterate, he gets one of his assistants to do most tech related things for him, so he wouldn't be capable of messaging us.

Mental: Who else can he be.

Sun: Wrong

Sun: My name is Marianne, you wouldn't know me, my influence is more so over criminals than normal people

Mental: WHY ADD A CRIMINAL TO SOMETHING MEANT TO SAVE THE WORLD

Sun: I just want money, and I need the world to exist for money to have value

Mental: That is surprisingly reasonable.

Mental: Also why is it only us talking?

Sun: Lance is busy with a blown up center, Alder is Alder, Ash is sleeping (hopefully), Steven is either asleep or in a cave, and idk about Cynthia or Leon

Mental: I'm seeing posts about Leon being on a date with one of his gym leaders, fourth different one this week, so probably just a friendly meeting once more.

Mental: Cynthia is probably searching for every historical record of any hero.

Sun: Anyways, it's late, I'm off

Mental: Good night
