It was the dawn of a new day at Team Rocket HQ, and the infamous crooks were sitting around the table enjoying their breakfast. Of course, when I say Team Rocket, I mean the trio of Jessie, James, and Meowth, the most hell-bent Pikachu hunters the world has ever known. And when I say HQ, I mean a conveniently un-occupied cave. When I say table, I mean a cardboard box. And when I say breakfast, I mean a hearty meal consisting of a bag of "Gummi Wumple".

It was over this meal that the team was to discuss their newest plan for getting ahold of the twerp's strongest pokémon, Pikachu. Their meeting had been quite thus far, silently chewing of snack food mostly, until Jessie started the meeting.

"So, have either of you come up with our newest Pikachu catching plot?" she asked, though her tone informed James and Meowth that she could really care less. James opened his mouth to talk, but Meowth had already started yapping up a storm.

"Alright, my plan is dat we dig a big hole in ta ground, and lay a grass mat over top of it, den when da twerps walk over it, dey fall in, ten we get some of dat electric proof wire, nag ta Pikachu, and hit ta road!" Meowth smile was beaming after delivering his speech, clearly impressed that he had come up with such a masterful plan. Jessie and James however, were not so impressed. James, again, tried to speak, but Jessie beat him to it.

"Meowth, do you have any idea how many times we've tried that. Besides, he has that… Bat… Dragon… Thing. It could just fly them out," she said bluntly, still bored. There was a bit of silence afterwards, and James began to speak.

"Well, I have-"he said cheerily, before being cut off by Meowth again.

"But Jessie, we've never tried ta electric proof wire WIFF the hole. And besides, ya can't beat da classics!" he explained, his cheery mood restored. James, however, was getting very upset, grinding his teeth, waiting for Meowth to finish.

"Are you two-"he started again, but Jessie cut him off once more.

"But Meowth, it doesn't matter if-"she complained, but was cut off, this time by James, standing up and yelling at the top off his lungs.

"WOULD YOU TWO STOP CUTTING ME OFF!" he exploded, loud enough to finally get their attention. The two stared a James, perplexed by their partners sudden attitude shift. James sat back down and continued. "Listen, I have a plan. A fool-proof plan. You know that whenever we grab Pikachu, it always shocks whatever cage we trap it in, right?"

"Or any rope that we tie it up with," said Jessie.

"Or container we pud it in," said Meowth.

"Exactly!" exclaimed James. "Well, what if we use that electricity to electrify our balloon?" His partners looked very confused.

"What good…" started Jessie.

"Would dat do?" finished Meowth.

"Well, when the twerp gets his Talonflame to come and attack our balloon…" James started. Jessie snapped her fingers, having figured out the plan.

"It'll be shocked by a pika-powered thunderbolt!" exclaimed Jessie.

"Ta twerp's bird will get a one-way ticket to electi-city!" Meowth added.

The three spent a good half a minute laughing and giggling at just how amazing and fool proof their new plan was. James took to drawing himself a diagram in the dirt, Jessie was describing just how happy the boss will be when he gets Pikachu, but Meowth had stopped laughing and was standing on the "table", his paw to his chin in thought.

"Just hold on a minute youse guys," said Meowth. "How is we goin to be payin for all of dis? Ta proper equipment would probably be very expensive."

There was a bit of silence between the three, and they gave each other puzzling looks. Then Jessie shrugged.

"We can just put it on our Team Rocket tab," she assured him.

And so the three set off to town, ready, willing, and able to try there new plan. After all, it was fool proof! There was no way it could fail!


Yes, I know this isn't Scolipede Guild, but I had the idea and couldn't let it go to waste. I've been watching way to much of the pokemon anime ^^;

Make sure you tell me what you thought of it in a reveiw! And chapter two will be ready sometime soon, so don't go away!
