Summary
“The Pokemon World Tournament is a battle festival that happens once every two years. This time, in roughly a month’s time, Alola has the chance to organize it. Now, can someone tell me what makes the Tournament special? And why it may be weird that Alola’s organizing it?”
Lillie put her hand up. Professor Kukui nodded at her. “In contrary to the majority of other battle festivals, only those who are League Associates can be chosen to compete.”
“Exactly! Now, for my second question?”
“Alola doesn’t have a League,” Kiawe hummed. “There are no Associates here. So if it’s happening in Alola, who is going to be chosen to compete from here, and how?”
Ash remembered Shirona talking about it, during one of the first times they'd met. When he told her his name she recognized him as Red's little brother, and started talking about a Tournament that happened a few years back, in Unova, and how his oldest brother was chosen as one of the contestants.
And, that it was the last time she saw Red before his disappearance.
or; The League's biennial tournament is in Alola this time, bringing in a lot of trainers from various regions. That includes Ash's family – for better or worse.

Summary
“May 21st? That’s a year. Almost a year — round this time, in Kalos, I would’ve been wrapping… wrapping up my…” League Conferences are always in the spring. Ash knows this like the back of his hand.
“Wrapping up your what?” Sophocles tilts his head.
When was the Kalos Crisis? When, exactly, was it? The day, the hour, the minute, the second; sometime in the middle of May, death bloomed in the wake of April showers, and Ash knows when. His body does, because it tenses as if preparing for the rapture.
“...Ash?”
“Nothing!” Ash shouts. “Just realized I’m super hot and need to swim so, so bad — I’m just gonna go! Sorry! Bye!”
Sophocles protests, but Ash’s already sunk one foot in the burning sand, tumbling forward into the beach. Brilliant blue waves lap away at children’s ankles, their natural path disrupted — and Ash careens straight into an oncoming wave, only remembering to be excited halfway into the fall.
OR: A year after the Kalos Crisis, Ash finally feels all the emotions he's shoved down.
