CHAPTER ONE: TEAM ROCKET
We join our heroes Ash, Brock, and Misty walking along a dusty road towards their next destination. Pikachu is sleeping in Ash's backpack as usual. They have been walking for an hour searching for the next Pokémon Gym to try to get another Badge. Misty suddenly stopped and asked Ash, "So where is this Pokémon Gym you've been talking about all day, mister?" She began mocking Ash. "We'll be there in the morning!" "Hey, you're just jealous because you don't know your way around!" Ash yelled back. They started arguing as usual about which way to go. Brock helplessly tried to break them up. Pikachu was thrown into the dirt and Thundershocked Misty and Ash, angry at them for waking him up. They fell to the ground, black as charcoals. Suddenly, they noticed a lake with a Dragonair in it. "Wow!" yelled Ash. "A Dragonair!" "They're extremely rare." commented Brock. Ash pulled out Dexter, his Pokédex. "Dragonair, a very rare Dragon-type Pokémon. This Pokémon is very hard to catch because of its powerful Hyper Beam attack, approach with extreme caution." "I've got to catch it right now!" yelled Ash in amazement. "Pikachu, go!" "Pika, pikachu, pika!" Pikachu shouted. "Pikachu! Thunderbolt!" commanded Ash. Pikachu's cheeks sparkled with electricity. "Pi, ka, chuuuuu!" he shouted. The Dragonair was shot into the air by electricity and landed helplessly on the ground just in front of Ash and his friends, toasted. Ash was just about to throw a Pokéball at it, when a voice interupeted them. "Prepare for trouble!" "Make it double!" "To protect the world from devestation!" "To unite all peoples within our nation!" "To denounce the evils of truth and love!" "To extend our reach to the stars above!" "Jessie!" "James!" "Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light!" "Surrender now or prepare to fight!" "Meowth, that's right!" "It's Team Rocket!" Ash yelled.
CHAPTER TWO: THE KIDNAPPING
"What do you want?" Ash asked. "What we always want, of course!" Jessie replied. "Hand over Pikachu!" James yelled. "I'll never give Pikachu to you!" Ash yelled. "Then I guess we'll have to take Pikachu the hard way." James grinned. With that, Team Rocket ran away. "What? Where are they going?" Brock asked. "Something funny is going on here." Ash said. The whole group was puzzled. "Hey!" Ash yelled. "I have to catch that Dragonair!" The fried Dragonair had managed to crawl back into the water. "Pikachu, go!" Ash yelled, but before Pikachu could attack it, the Dragonair dove back underwater. Ash sighed. "Oh well, there's always next time." Brock said. They began looking for the next Pokémon Gym. "I can't stop wondering why Team Rocket would just run
off like that." Misty said. "Yeah, it's not like Team Rocket to do something like that." added Brock. Just then, a cloud of smoke appeared and covered the
whole group. "Pidgeotto, go!" Ash yelled. "Pidge!" yelled Pidgeotto. "Pidgeotto, Whirlwind away the smoke!" Ash commanded. "PIDGEOTTO!" Pidgeotto screeched. Once the smoke had cleared, Ash re-called Pidgeotto. The whole group was becoming even more suspicious, and they knew that Team Rocket had something to do with the smoke. They started on their way again. "Hey, wait a minute!" Ash yelled. "Where's Pikachu?" Pikachu had disappeared!
CHAPTER THREE: A LOST POKEMON
Team Rocket had Pikachu. In a secret underground room, Team Rocket was wondering what to do with Pikachu. Pikachu was crying in an electric-proof cage. "Jessie, what do we do now that we have finally caught Pikachu?" James asked. "We make it evolve, of course!" she shouted. "But Jessie, we don't have any Thunder Stones!" James yelled. "Hey, I know!" Meowth interuppted. "Let's ask the boss what to do with Pikachu!" "That's a good idea!" James grinned. They pressed some buttons on a control panel, and Giovanni, their boss, appeared on a big screen. "Boss," James grinned, "we finally caught that super-powerful Pikachu!" "Good." Giovanni said. "Should we make it evolve?" Jessie asked. "No, you fools! It would be too powerful and escape! I have a better idea." grinned Giovanni. "Prrrrr!" his Persian hissed.

Ash had sent out Pidgeotto and Brock had sent out Zubat to look for Pikachu. "We'll find Pikachu, Ash." Brock said, trying to comfort Ash. Then, something occurred to Ash. "I think I know where Pikachu is." he whispered. "I think that Team Rocket finally achieved their dream." "You don't mean!" Misty gasped. "Yep, Team Rocket's got Pikachu."
CHAPTER FOUR: A POKEMON GONE BAD
Ash, Misty, and Brock found Zubat and Pidgeotto. They told them the bad news, then told them to go look for Team Rocket. A while later, Zubat and Pidgeotto came back. They had found something. Zubat and Pidgeotto led Ash, Misty, and Brock deep into the forest, to a bush. "Zubat, Pidgeotto, this isn't Team Rocket! It's just a bush!" Ash yelled. Just then, Misty spotted something in the bush. "Hey! Look over here, Ash!" she called. The bush was covering a trap door leading down into the ground. "Good work, Zubat and Pidgeotto!" Brock said. Ash and Brock then re-called their Pokémon. They pushed through the bush and opened the trap door. They walked down a long set of stone stairs before they came to a dark room. Team Rocket was there! "Team Rocket, you give Pikachu back right now!" Ash yelled. "Sure." Jessie replied. "He's right here." Team Rocket moved away from each other and standing there was Pikachu! There was something different about Pikachu though. Pikachu's eyes were bright red, and it looked angry. Pikachu raced towards Ash, Misty, and Brock, Thundershocking them. Ash, Misty, and Brock ran as fast as they could outside, only to wonder why Pikachu attacked them. They didn't have much time to think about it though because Pikachu started chasing them. They came to a dead end. Pikachu's eyes glowed evily. Ash was about to do something that he never wanted to do. He was going to battle Pikachu.
CHAPTER FIVE: THE BATTLE
"Go Squirtle!" Ash threw his Pokeball and out popped Squirtle. "Ash!" Misty yelled. "Water Pokemon are weak against electric Pokemon!" "Huh?!" He said looking at Misty questionably. "Piii, kaaa, chuuuu!!" Pikachu's body let out a blast of electricity that blasted Squirtle. The Pokemon was thrown and landed at Ashes feet. "Squirtle return!" "Go Pidgeotto!" "Pidgeotto!" It screamed. "ASH!!! HOW MANY MISTAKES CAN YOU MAKE?!! FLYING POKEMON ARE ALSO WEAK AGAINST ELECTRIC POKEMON!!" Misty couldn't believe him. "What! You mean Pidgeotto is weak against Pikachu too?!" Pikachu's body grew tense as he used his swift attack. Ash could only watch as his Pokemon desperately tried to dodge the flying stars. "Ash call Pidgeotto back before it gets hurt!" Brock told him. But it was too late. Pikachu thundershocked Pidgeotto and the bird Pokemon fell to the ground. "Pidgeotto Return!" "Go Charmeleon!" Ash was quick this time. "Charmeleon, rage!" Charmeleon let out a blast of fire that Pikachu dodged easily. Pikachu quick attacked Charmeleon and the flame on its tail got bigger as Pikachu attacked it. "Charmeleon! Fire blast!" Charmeleons body
glowed a red-orange color as it prepared its attack. "Charrr!" It roared as a fireball came up through Charmeleon's throat and out its mouth. The fireball hit Pikachu with such force that it threw the Pokemon several feet in the air before landing in the dirt. "Pikachu!" Ash knelt and picked up the scorched Pokemon. "Pi......ka." The Pokemon cried weakly. "Pikachu is that, you?" "Pikachu." The Pokemon lifted its head to lick his trainers face. Then it layed back down and closed its eyes. "Why are our plans always ruined by you!" The group looked up and saw Team Rocket. Ash was enraged. "Charmeleon flamethrower attack!" Charmeleon flamethrowered Team Rocket and they went flying. "It looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again!" The group walked for a hour until they got to the next Pokemon Center. Ash revived his Pokemon and they were on their way. Everyone was happy. Well, almost everyone.

"You fools! This plan was made so even you coudn't mess it up! Don't talk to me until you've succeeded in doing something right!" With that the screen turned off and Team Rocket was left to feel sorry for themselves.
