Quick recap

Ash competes in the Unova League, the Vertress Conference. He gets through the early rounds and loses in the quarterfinals to Cameron and his Lucario, finishing in the top eight; Virgil takes the title. Then Team Plasma, led by Ghetsis, tries to control the legendary Reshiram, and N, the young man who talks to Pokémon, helps Ash stand up to them. With the threat contained, Ash, Iris and Cilan travel through the Decolore Islands, meeting Pokémon and people along the way. At the end they meet reporter Alexa from Kalos, and Ash picks his next region.
