1	->"When my friends and I were battling Giratina in Turnback Cave, the legendary sent a portal to swallow us and send us to your dimension. I kicked Giovanni into the stupid thing because I thought it would get rid of him for good. Instead, it spat him out in your little world of sunshine and gumdrops, where apparently you never actually have to deal with competent evil!"

6	While fighting to prevent Team Rocket from capturing Giratina, things go south and Red, Blue, and Green end up in another dimension. They soon encounter the new universe's counterparts of Red and Blue: Ash Ketchum and Gary Oak. However, the situation in this dimension is quickly turning towards the dire: the dex holders' version of Giovanni came to the new world with them, and he almost immediately escaped to continue his own plans. Ash and his friends must put their differences aside and work together with the newcomers to avert an impending crisis.

9	!!''Pokémon Adventures: Ash Gray Chapter'' provides examples of the following tropes:
10	* ActionPrologue: The entire fic opens up with the dex holders taking on a crapload of rockets in an attempt to stop them from capturing Giratina.
11	* AllStarCast: The dex holders teaming up with Ash's crew? Heck yeah! Not to mention that WordOfGod has assured [[spoiler:pretty much every main character from both worlds will make an appearance.]]
12	%%* AlternateUniverse: The basis of the entire story.
13	* AlwaysSecondBest: In the beginning, Ash is upset that he can never seem to win a league, and the idea of being second to Red also seems to haunt him throughout the fic.
14	* BreakTheCutie: [[spoiler: Ash is pretty much set up as a more innocent Red, but he is pounded on throughout the entire story, possibly coming to a climax around chapter 15?]]
15	* BackToBackBadasses: This trope happens several times due to the sheer number of enemies the heroes are usually fighting.
16	** Ash and Red in chapter 13.
17	** Misty, Brock, and Green in chapter 14.
18	** Ash, Misty, and Yellow it in chapter 25.
19	** Ash and [[spoiler: Tobias]] is set up as this, but it's subverted as they split up before fighting.
20	* BatDeduction: Often used on one counterpart to another.
21	** Blue and Gary use this to pull psych evaluations on each other when they duke it out in chapter 4.
22	** The Lances use this to do the same thing in chapter 17.
23	** Green uses this to find Misty's BerserkButton in chapter 4.
24	** Misty also uses it to return the favor.
25	* BerserkButton: Where do I begin? Everyone seems to have one of these!
26	** First off, [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend don't tell Ash that Misty is his girlfriend.]]
27	** Oh! Also, [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend don't tell Misty that Ash is her boyfriend.]]
28	** [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Green totally doesn't have a crush on]] [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend Red]] [[LoveTriangle or]] [[SheIsNotMyGirlfriend Blue.]]
29	** [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Gary is totally not worried about going into research because of his grandfather's accomplishments.]]
30	** Manga Giovanni is clearly afraid of the dex holders to the point of it becoming a BerserkButton.
31	** And Red '''DOES NOT''' want any help from the anime crew in taking down his BigBad.
32	** Yellow clearly loses her cool a few times when Red goes missing.
33	* BigBad: Giovanni. [[spoiler: Manga, to be specific.]]
34	* BigBrotherInstinct: Red to Ash. Sure, [[spoiler:it looks like Red is being a jerk at first, but he's really just looking out for Ash.]]
35	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: [[spoiler: Mewtwo after chapter 15 in a nutshell.]]
36	* TheCaptain: Red seems to usually have this position, but he occasionally trades with Ash or is shoved out of the way by Anime Lance.
37	* ChekhovsGun: In chapter 9, Lance makes a passing reference to the fact that he has a small case of tracking buttons in his pocket. By the end of the chapter, he improvises the mission by placing one under Giovanni's sleeve.
38	* ContinuityNod: ...I'm not even going to try to name all of them.
39	* DamselInDistress: [[spoiler: Misty from the end of chapter 14 until chapter 21. Lampshaded by her and Ash a few times]]
40	* {{Determinator}}: Ash. Red to a degree too, but he is set up more as TheHero.
41	%%* DiabolicalMastermind: Manga Giovanni.
42	* DefeatMeansFriendship: Subverted after the [[spoiler:Ash vs. Red battle]], but the heroes do learn to respect each other more.
43	%%* TheDragon: [[spoiler: Mewtwo from chapter 15 onward.]]
44	* EvilerThanThou: Clearly the case with Manga Giovanni compared to Anime Giovanni.
45	%%* EvilTwin: Anime Lance and Manga Lance.
46	%%* HannibalLecture: Manga Giovanni and Manga Lance both seem to like this a lot.
47	%%* HeelFaceTurn: You're SOOO close Team Rocket Trio! SO close!
48	* HeroismMotiveSpeech: Anime Lance to his [[EvilTwin counterpart]]
49	-->'''Anime Lance:''' "You said it yourself. I'm you. I've felt what you're feeling many times before, and I'm sure I'll feel it many times in the future. I love Pokémon, and I have a heart for them. Nothing angers me more than when humanity does something stupid to hurt Pokémon. That's why I got into Pokémon training. That's why I joined the G-Men. I am what I am to make a difference for the creatures I love. Some days, I do wake up and just wish that all of those evil people in the world were gone, but I know that it can't be that way. It's not my place to make that call."\
50	* InterdimensionalTravelDevice: Giratina, and later, [[spoiler:The laser Team Rocket starts working on.]]
51	* TheMultiverse: [[spoiler:Professor Oak mentions that Ash and Red's universes likely exist in one of these. The Giovannis also seem to have the same idea.]]
52	%%* NebulousEvilOrganisation: Team Rocket... Duh.
53	%%* OneManArmy: Mewtwo and Giratina [[spoiler:before the level cap set in.]]
54	* PowerCreepPowerSeep: It's a plot point that Pokémon from different worlds don't have the same strengths and operate under different rules. Without levels and stats existing in the anime, Pokémon from that world are significantly more powerful than Pokémon that come from other worlds.
55	%%* ThePowerOfFriendship: Also a major theme throughout this fic.
56	* RedemptionRejection: When [[spoiler:the two Lances]] finally meet, the one from the anime tries to convince his manga counterpart that he has the potential to be a hero. The manga version thinks about it for a moment... then tries to kill the anime version.
57	* SameCharacterButDifferent: While for the most part everyone is exactly how they are in canon, Red is somewhat more cynical, and for some reason is more of a loner than the HotBlooded IdealHero he usually is, being more of a planner than the type that regularly makes use of the IndyPloy. Ash also seems more aware of what romance is and has the {{Keet}} part of his personality heavily toned down.
58	** It should also be noted that N acts noticeably [[AdaptationalHeroism a lot more like his game counterpart than normal Adventures!N does]].
59	* SheIsNotMyGirlfriend: Ash and Misty seem to go through this the most, but Green suffers a bit too.
60	* SomebodySetUpUsTheBomb: [[spoiler: Just read the title of chapter 20.]]
61	* TakeOverTheWorld: Giovanni's plan. Actually, if you want to be more accurate [[spoiler:Take Over the Multiverse.]]
62	* ViolentlyProtectiveGirlfriend:
63	-->'''Misty:''' "And in THIS dimension, if you have a problem with Ash, you take it up with me! Got it?!"
64	* WellIntentionedExtremist: Manga Lance and the Elite Four have always filled this trope, even in canon.
