There is alot of alternate universes of Ash even Smarter Ash AUs.
This time this Ash does not want to become Pokemon Master (or lacks of the motivation to become one) instead just travels around the world and catch more Pokemon than his anime canon...
Last night, Ash was asked by Professor Oak, To head to Route 25 where they need to help a Pokemon Fanatic, Bill, The same guy that developed the Storage System.
But first they must walk to a beautiful golden bridge called the Golden Ball Bridge or what most people called, The Nugget Bridge. Ash told his friends that there heading on Route 25 and the request from the Professor. Misty recognizes about Route 25 where at the east side is called the Cerulean Cape, She comments where is good spot to have a date there and she loves watching the sunset whenever she goes there time to time
(Author's note: I have to look up Bulbapedia that Misty looks up at the sunset at the east but it usually set on the west)
All three agree and began heading to the infamous Nugget Bridge, But before he step foot, A brown hair boy runs in a state of panic like he seen something "Eyaaarrgghh!" He screamed "What the-"
THUD!!
The boy accidentally knocks Ash as he stumbles and looses his balance, Both trainers fell there butts on the ground.
"Ash are you alright?" Said Misty "Yeah I'm alright!"
Turning to the boy that bumped into him, He recognize that familiar brown hair which is Trace, The last person in that day to get a starter which he remembered is Eevee. "Um hey, You okay dude?" He offers his hand to get him up

"Y-yeah I'm alright thanks" He grabs the hand from Ash and stands up also dusting off his clothes "Hey I know who you are!, You're Ash right?" "Yes, I'm Ash" "Then I challenge you to battle!" Trace declared "..."
After the sudden declaration of Trace wanting for a Pokeball, They decided to take the back of the Pokemon Center with a battle arena for them. Brock tells them that he will be referee for the battle.
"Ash I've heard alot of things about you" "Like what?" "From Professor Oak, I've heared you got stronger with your Pokemon and got two badges now" "Uhuh yep" "Well I wanna to see how strong you are just like the Professor said, Were going 3 vs 3, sounds good" Ash nodded from the conditions of the battle "Yeah I'm in"
"The battle between Ash and Trace will now begin, Both sides send your Pokemon"
Trace smirks ready to battle his rival "I'll start, Let's go Pidgeotto!"
Out of the Pokeball, An eagle like bird but unlike the small Pidgey, This one is bigger including his feathers and has some red like design on it including his long red comb. "Pidgeo!" It cawed
"Oh a Pidgeotto" Cue the Pokedex check...
