Time is after Ash defeats the CEO of Engerland or whtvr
Ash & co. are not "companions" per se, more of a bunch of guys you encounter from time to time (mainly during the more challenging proffesor's quests)
(Speaking of wich) they consist primarily of: "Go there, record/catch X pokemon, come back."
Other times, it consists of translating old ass runes or exploring ruins. Yes, protag travels to other regions, but WAY less than in Journeys (expensive).
Other important pokemon catched include but are not limited to: Nidoking, Scrafty, Lurantis, Frosmoth & Scizor (obv they evolve along the crew).
A lot of the focus is split between jobs, the tournament, & taking care of willd (& own) pokemon in the free time, because...
The protag only battles like 3 times with Ash, the last one during the tournament, in every single one of them he (protag) loses
During losers matchups he leaves to stop a cataclysm (IDK, maybe the regies under the bad guys control, for example)
Ends the series by becoming a pokemon ranger.
