Pokémon: Shigeru's Second Chance

One crushing defeat changes everything. When Gary Oak loses to Ash at the Silver Conference, memories of a past life flood back—and with them, the knowledge of a future he refuses to accept. No longer content to fade into the background as a researcher, Gary sets his sights on the only goal that matters: becoming the ultimate Pokémon Master. Armed with foreknowledge and an unshakeable resolve, he vows this will be the last time Ash Kizaki ever defeats him. In a world where friendship and rivalry collide, can Gary rewrite his destiny and claim the championship that should have been his?
