by Master Alchron
Alchron awakens near Pallet Town with no memories beyond his name—and a mysterious ability to feel what Pokémon cannot say. With nowhere to return to, he accepts a rare yellow Charmander and the Pokédex of Ash Ketchum, a young Trainer who has remained in a coma for two years. Promising to record the journey Ash never had, Alchron sets out across Kanto in pursuit of eight badges. But as rivals become companions and Pokémon become family, every step carries Alchron toward a question no victory can answer: Who was he before he opened his eyes—and why was everything else forgotten?
