Sam was yawning in bed. He had just woken up, from the loud, golden bell on the deck of the domed ship he was on. Next to his soft, heavily covered bed was his first pokemon, Flare, his Vulpix. Also heavily covered in her small, light blue bed, she turned, her many red tails, slightly poking out of the, also light blue, sheet, barely visible under her two covers on top of the single sheet.
Sam sat up on his bed, thinking about what he had just done with his life. He had just left all of his old pokemon, except Vulpix, to start a new journey. 'Well, new journey, new pokemon!' He thought, slightly doubting it. He had only been away for the night and he was already missing his old pokemon, friends, especially Jared, who gave him Flare, and his family. He looked around the room. It had many golden-colored columns. These took Sam's mind off missing his pokemon. 'Wonder if they're real gold…' He thought, curious.
The room also had a wooden chest right next to his bed. The chest had small pokemon markings on it. There were Poliwags on the top corners and Steelix in the bottom. Even though they were badly discolored Sam could still see what they were. In fact, he had seen the pokemon before. Robbie and Jamie… Evil Team Magma thugs. They were the ones who had those pokemon. Sam could still recall the battle where they had used those pokemon against him, too.
Team Magma… Evil pokemon poachers, at least now. Jesse, James, and their Meowth had stopped Team Magma and Aqua years ago. Years before the two teams wanted to capture rare pokemon, certain rare pokemon, really rare pokemon. Brock, Sam's idle, had gotten tangled up in this mess once. Legend has it that Team Magma was after the pokemon Groudon, while Aqua was after Kyogre.
The two teams caught the other's pokemon, for bait. After they awakened the two pokemon, with the two orbs, the pokemon hovered towards Sootopolis City, in the Hoenn Region, where Sam was going to fight their hearts out. All of the skies went black, flashing with yellow sun, hidden in the rain clouds.
When it seemed like all hope was lost, but another legendary pokemon appeared. No one quite knows what that pokemon was. It came through the clouds, coiled. It's green body shone with its yellow markings as the sky returned to normal and the other legendary pokemon fled. The pokemon stayed in its pose for a moment, roared loudly, then left.
Sam suddenly remembered that the bell had rung . It was time to go! He quickly shook Flare, helping her pull the covers off. Sam quickly pulled his coat off the brass-like hooks on the wooden wall with his free hand.
"Come on, Flare. We've got to go!" Sam said, still waking the pokemon up.
"Pi… Vullllll…" The pokemon squealed, getting out of the bed quickly.
Sam ran out of their room, now dressed and packed completely. "Wait for us!" He yelled. "Wait!"
The assistant also got off the ship, closing the door behind him. Sam and Flare were now alone in the ship. Sam still ran until he got to the door. He tried the silver-ish door handle. It was locked! Sam was locked in the ship!
"Ha ha!" A young boy's voice sounded from what seemed like the top of the ship.
"Is that…" Sam said, shaking his head. "No…"
"To protect the world from Team Rocket!" A ladies voice said, from the same place as the other.
"To get Groudon, yes we still want it!" The boy continued the jingle-like phrase.
"It is…" Sam whispered.
"Jamie!" The lady, turning out to be Jamie, continued, jumping out of an air vent, along with Robbie, her companion, near Sam, still taking turns in the jingle.
"Robbie!"
"Now that introductions are over," Sam said, grasping his belt, expecting poke-balls and then remembering what had happened. "What do you want this time?"
"Your Wigglytuff!" Jamie said smiling. "And we're willing to fight for it!"
"Oh…" Sam said, also smiling. "Bad news… I left my pokemon in Johto! All I have now is Flare!"
"We're still in Johto aren't we" Jamie asked Robbie, smiling evilly now.
"No." Robbie replied. "We are now in the Hoenn region, welcome."
"You dim-wit!" Jamie said, her face still pointed towards Robbie. "You were supposed to stop the ship!"
"That was your Magby's job!" Robbie replied, grabbing his black and red poke-ball from his pocket then facing Sam. "Still, I know he has his pokemon! Go, Poliwag. Get those pokemon!"
"You too, Magby!" Jamie said, also grabbing the same kind of poke-ball from her blue belt.
"Okay, if you insist. Go Flare!" Sam started as Flare walked into the fray. "Use Fire Spin!"
Red and orange flames came out of the pokemon's mouth, capturing the Magby and Poliwag in its tornado-like whirlwind.
"Poliwag…" Robbie coughed. "Quick use your Water Gun attackMake a path through the tornado!"
In a mass of clear-blue water the tornado died down for a couple seconds, just enough for the two other pokemon to get out of it.
"Poliwag!" Robbie kept giving orders. "Follow it up with a Bubble Beam!"
Out of the wave of water came lighter-blue bubbles. They weren't very fast but still charging at Flare.
"Magby," Continued Jamie. "Push those bubbles on with your Flamethrower!"
"Flare! Use your Fire Spin attack to capture those attacks then push them back with Flamethrower!" Sam said, a little bit scared for Flare.
The Vulpix quickly reacted to the directions, flames pouring out of her mouths. The flames, also quickly, sucked up the two attacks, stopping them completely. Flare, now sweating, sent out a bright red Flame Thrower attack, just like the Magby had, to push the multi-colored ball of attacks towards the other pokemon, who had now turned away, thinking they had won the battle.
"Magby!" Jamie said, trying to save her pokemon from losing. "Watch out!"
"Poliwag, you too!" Robbie said, doing the same.
The two pokemon turned around, shocked to see a multi-colored ball of attacks charging right at them. The two were too shocked that they couldn't move, allowing the energy ball to land a direct hit, sending the whole gang, including Robbie and Jamie, flying out a window near the vent.
"We'll get you for this kid!" Jamie yelled as they flew out the window.
"We will…" Robbie also yelled, his voice trailing away.
