The story so far: Ash, Brock, and Dawn befriended the owner of a ranch for rare pokemon. The owner, Milo, raises pokemon almost never seen in the region. Team Rocket showed up in one of their giant robots. Ash and company blew up the robot as usual, but Team Rocket followed with their backup plan; a net hanging from their balloon.
"Pikachu, cut the net open with Iron Tail!"
"Pi-ka!" Pikachu's tail glowed with the energy needed to harden it, then sliced through the net hanging from the Meowth's head balloon. It landed on the ground, opened up, and all the rare (and valuable) pokemon, who were fine because the fall was so short, escaped back to their habitats on the ranch.
"Meowth, what is the meaning of this?" Jesse demanded.
"Ya see, if ya want electricity insulated netting, ya gotta pass on some otha featchas. Like extra hardness."
James interjected, "Well, you know what happens next, do you not?"
Jesse paled. "Yes," she said, then prepared for the inevitable.
Below, Ash called, "Now, finish them off with a Thunderbolt!"
"We get blasted off on the spot!" They cried in unison.
"Piiiiii-kaaaaaaah-"
A familiar voice cut through the air."Hold it!"
"Chaaaa," Pikachu squeaked, letting its Thunderbolt go in an uncomfortable fizzle.
"Officer Jenny," exclaimed Ash and Dawn. Brock was already being dragged away by Croagunk.
"I got a call about an attempted robbery hereJust what do you think you're doing, young man?" Jenny said.
Ash explained, "I'm sending them off, just like I always do, so they can't steal any pokemon."
"I'm sorry, but this is a police matter, and we don't look kindly on vigilantes around here," she threw a pokeball, "Growlithe, bring those thieves down here!"
Growlithe shot a precise line of flame across the pipes holding the basket to the balloon, and it plummeted to the ground below as the balloon exploded.
"Now, you three are under arrest," then she turned to Ash and Dawn. "You three will need to stay in the area for a few weeks to testify at their hearing. Any issues can be brought up at the station. Now let's get going, you three."
And they were never bothered by Team Rocket again.
