As Team Rocket were sneaking through an alley, a trash can rattled beside them, startling James and Meowth.
"What was that?" Meowth cried out, while James merely let out an inarticulate shriek.
"Oh please, you two," Jessie scoffed. "It was just something hitting the side of that trash can! Probably a Rattata."
She kicked the trash can, as if to prove her point. It fell over, the lid rolling away and the garbage from inside spilling out into the alley.
Along with empty packages and rancid-smelling remains of what had formerly been food, something else rolled out...
"Is that... a Pokemon?" Jessie asked uncertainly, kneeling down to get a closer look.
"Kiiii," the tiny creature chirped, and let off a weak flash of light.
It was silver and had a keylike horn on the top of its head. With its two thin little arms, it clutched a battered metal charm. Jessie reached out to the little Pokemon, trying to get a better look at what it was holding. She was able to see that the charm was engraved with the words Mom's Keys, before the Pokemon shrieked "Kiiiiiiiii," and hit her with a strong blast of light.
"Meowth, what's it saying?" James asked.
"It's not saying anything," Meowth replied. "It's just yelling. Like when you went 'aaaaaaaaaahhhh' earlier."
"Ouch... that felt like a Flash Cannon," Jessie complained. She was so used to being struck with Pokemon moves that she could tell them apart on impact.
"So it's a Steel Type?" James said.
"Probably. Not many other types can learn Steel Type moves."
"Anyway, it looks like it's hurt. We should take it to the Pokemon Center."
"If it will let us..."
They were blasted a few more times before the little creature realized that they weren't trying to take its treasure away, and finally allowed Jessie to scoop it up into her hands.
When they brought it to the Pokemon Center, Nurse Joy said, "Oh, a Klefki!"
As she set it in the machine to be healed, she lectured them about letting their Pokemon get into such a horrible condition.
"We found it in the trash," Meowth piped up defensively.
"Kiii," agreed the Klefki.
