Chapter 1: Re-Generator
This was based off an actual episode of Doraemon called "Regenerator" that aired in my country back in 2005 and 2007. I've never seen it aired ever since and I've been searching for it for a long time: I searched it in 4 languages, including Japanese, but couldn't find any traces of it on the Internet and it's one of my favorite episodes.
Since I remember a lot about the episode and it seems lost, I decided to write it as a short story with reliance on memory from 2007, thus, It might deviate from the actual episode if anybody can find it and compare to this story.
Please enjoy!

3:15 P.M
"Nobi-san, do you wanna head to the park?" Shizuka asks as she walks down the streets with Nobita: "Maybe Gian and Suneo are there and we can all hang out?"
"Gian might be there. But, I don't know where Suneo would be right now" Nobita half-agrees with her until an expensive car passes them by; he remarks: "Never mind, I found him"
The car pulls over and the window comes down, revealing a familiar and snobby voice: "Hey, Shizuka! Oh, hey Nobita"
"Hey, Suneo!" Shizuka cheerfully replies.
"Hey" Nobita says the same, except with much less enthusiasm.
"How would you two like to join me and my driving brother for a ride?" Suneo politely offers them, at least it seems like that right now.
"That'd be great!" Nobita replies as Shizuka enters the car from the passenger door. Just as Nobita's about to enter the car, Suneo delivers some bad news: "Oh, sorry. There's not enough space in the car, Nobita"
"Wait, there is more-" Shizuka tries to interrupt him, but Suneo interrupts her: "-Sorry!"
The car drives off with Suneo sticking his tongue out the window while Shizuka wasn't looking, leaving an annoyed Nobita to cough out the flying dust left behind by the car tires.
Nobita walks over towards the park and notices a couple of friends standing and reading a comic book together.
"Hey, what comic is that?" Nobita intrudingly yet good-heartedly approaches them: "I want to read it!"
He tries grabbing one side of the comic book, but this action accidentally causing it to split from the middle
"Dude, what the heck?" one of them scolds him as him and the other kid walk away, annoyed
"I'm sorry!" Nobita apologizes, but that's useless since they're long gone.
"Hey, Nobita!" Gian approaches Nobita: "We're playing baseball. Do you wanna be fielder?"
"Sure!" he agrees as all players get into position and the game begins: The pitcher throws the ball and Gian, the batter, strikes the ball; the ball launches over a fence instead of towards the fielders and then the sound of a window shattering echoes across the park.
"Everybody, run!" Gian yells to his team and within mere seconds, they had all disappeared, apart from Nobita who would have to soon hear a roaring Mr. Kamamichi as he approached Nobita and scolded him for apparently smashing a baseball through his window (Might have gotten his name wrong).

The Streets, Again
3:35 P.M
"Ugh! This just isn't fair. Why does Gian get away with everything?" an irritated and unfairly treated Nobita asks hypothetically as he walks down the street. Still feeling angry, Nobita notices a rock on the street and kicks it so hard that it launches into the air and descends back towards the ground like an upside-down parabola.
Unfortunately for Nobita, the rock hits a stray dog on the head as it scavenges for free food in a trash can set aside on the road.
"Uh, oh…" Nobita whispers in fear as the dog turns around and glares.
"I'm sorry…." He tries apologizing but the dog only gets angrier and chases after the boy. Nobita runs in the other direction as the dog chases after him.
The episode changed to a side view of Nobita's clothed butt for a few seconds as he runs until the dog bites it with all its might. The gravity from the dog's pull and Nobita's acceleration force was too much for the fabric, and the entire seat of his pants was torn off, revealing his bare butt through the huge hole in the shorts.
"Oh gosh…" he blushed and yelled at the dog as it smiled while clutching the fabric in its teeth.
"I hate you!" Nobita screams as he faces the dog that walked away.
But, the dog just growls at him.
"I didn't say anything" a terrified Nobita contradictorily replies.
The dog just glares at him, spits the fabric onto the streets, and walks away. A young girl walks down the street behind from Nobita.
"Ha! Ha!" she giggles softly as she stares at Nobita's exposed butt and walks away.
Embarrassed, Nobita blushes and covers his butt.
"I need to find a phone, fast!"

"Ha ha ha!" Doraemon chuckles as he eats Dorayaki and watches a TV episode:
A dog chases after a young boy, the young boy tries jumping over a log fence, but his foot gets stuck in the fence as he leaps and falls forward onto his stomach on the grassy field. The dog stops, bites the young boy's butt, and rips the seat of his pants off and reveals his white underwear, unlike Nobita who, for some reason, wasn't wearing underwear.
"Ha ha ha!" Doraemon continues laughing until he hears the rotary phone ring. He runs towards the phone and picks up; he greets himself: "Hello, this is Doraemon"
"Hey, Doraemon. I need you, now. Meet me behind the candy store at Okashi-ya Street" Nobita unexplainably requests his robot buddy before hanging up.
Suddenly, Nobita puts the payphone down and notices two women standing behind him, pointing and laughing at the exposing hole in his shorts. Embarrassed, he covers it up and comments: "It's a new fashion!"
He blushes and runs away.

"Hey, Doraemon! Over here!" a hiding Nobita yells up to the sky as he notices Doraemon flying thanks to his Take-copter.
"I'm coming!" Doraemon replies as he descends towards a young boy covering something with his hands.
"Ok, promise not to laugh!" Nobita requests the robot before he turns around and withdraws his hands from the hole, revealing his bare butt.
Doraemon stares for a couple of seconds before bursting into laughter; he comments: "Is this a new fashion trend?"
"Please stop laughing!" Nobita blushes and requests him: "This is serious!"
"Come on, I'm just kidding" Doraemon replies while trying to contain his laughter: "I have the perfect gadget!"
"Re-Generator!" Doraemon announces his gadget name as usual: It was a bottle with pink-colored liquid inside and a photo of a lizard on the outside.
"Re-Generator?" Nobita asks, confused.
Doraemon then explains with an allegory to a lizard: Lizards regenerate their tails if they're detached from the body. Re-Generator works similarly by repairing anything, as made obvious by the gadget's name.
Doraemon applies some of the liquid on Nobita's butt with the help of a brush; Nobita chuckles as it tickled.
"Stay still" Doraemon orders him as he continues applying the liquid. Soon, the hole in Nobita's pants repairs, now concealing his butt.
"Doraemon, it looks absolutely new!" Nobita remarks before he asks: "Can I borrow that gadget?"
Doraemon, feeling confused, still nods.
Nobita uses the Re-generator to repair the torn comic book, Mr. Kamamichi's window, and then something unexpected:

"Mom's gonna kill us!" Suneo's brother cries at the side of the road next to an expensive car that had crashed into a utility pole.
"Doraemon! Doraemon!" Suneo comes crying out the car as he notices the yellow-shirt boy and earless-robot approach the wrecked car
Suneo begs for Doraemon to help them.
Nobita, selflessly yet understandably, asks: "Why should we help you? You didn't give me a ride, you jerk!"
"Please! I'm begging you!" Suneo pleads with Nobita who continues to say no until Shizuka exits the car and requests him, causing the lover boy to finally agree.
Doraemon fixes the car with the help of Regenerator and then Suneo and his brother cry of happiness.
"Thank you so much, Doraemon!" Suneo sings praises of the robot as if he were a god: "Please tell me if there's any way that I can repay you two! I owe you guys!"
"Actually, can you give me any of your broken toys?" Nobita requests, selfishly.
Confused, Suneo replies: "Um…ok, sure"

"Nobita, what are you doing?" a confused Doraemon asks as he enters the room and notices Nobita as he applies the Regenerator liquid onto Suneo's broken toys.
"For Suneo, these are trash. But, for me, they're treasure" Nobita replies as he repairs the broken toys to keep for himself.
"Oh, Nobita" Doraemon sighs, disappointed.
