As the ship leaves port, Iris points out that their is a battlefield on board. Ash and friends go check it out. Ash asks Iris to battle him so he can get ready for an Aspertia Gym battle. Iris accepts and gets ready for battle. Just then, Pikachu senses someone and Ash and friends wonder. They see that it is the same man that was watching them from the port. The man walks up to Pikachu and remarks it cute. Ash wonders why he was staring at them before, and then he says he heard a friend's voice. He refers all Pokemon are his friends. He tells Ash he hear's Pikachu's voice saying how much it cares about him. He says that he finds it rare that people and Pokemon can form a strong bond. Cilan wonders if he can literally hear a Pokemon's inner voice. He replies that he convinced himself that he can. Cilan thinks it doesn't sit quite right. The man replies that it doesn't really matter and that what matters is that a Pokemon and it's trainer come together as one. Ash and friends introduce themselves to him as he introduces himself as N and is always happy to meet new friends. N wonders where they are headed, as Ash replies that they are heading to ancient ruins that have something to do with Reshiram. N is shocked by it as he has a flashback about Reshiram going to burn down the whole world. Ash asks what's wrong with him, but he replies it's nothing. He says that Reshiram is great but says he hasn't met it, but when he does, he would consider himself lucky. Cilan brings up how Ash met Zekrom, and N is shocked about this too, and would appreciate it if he would tell him about it.
