Prologue 1:
One evening after getting yet another annoying call from Jesse and James, Giovanni the illustrious head of Team Rocket was finally ready to call it quits. Sure there were so many rare and powerful Pokemon to capture but all the peruse he was under it hard to get hold of a Magicarp let alone something with actual worth.
He sighed, remembering the golden age of Team Rocket, when they were feared and respected. Now Giovanni did not even have his gym.
Curse those stupid "Elite 4" members. He would have revenge… someday. But now was not that day, now he more important things to think about. Like figuring out if killing himself would really end his misery or only make it worse.
After several long moments of going through his melancholy thoughts his phone went off again. Cursing he answered it. "Yes, what is it."
"Boss, I have some good news." It was Black Tulip one of Giovanni's few "successful" agents.
"Yes" Giovanni said making sure that the tone in his voice did not betrayed his hope. "What is the news this time?"
"The lab has just informed me that they have found the tell-tail signs of a very powerful Pokemon."
Giovanni signed, the lab was always finding powerful Pokemon, all of them ended up being owned by a trainer who had the brains to protect it or was some common Pokemon that despite its power Team Rocket already had too many of.
Black Tulip must have sensed Giovanni disappointment because she added "trust me boss, you won't be disappointed." which often showed good results And quickly moved on to showing stats and charts which popped onto the phone screen blocking out Black Tulip. Giovanni's eyes widened, these charts and images were unbelievable, like nothing he had ever seen before. Yet somehow they were familiar, like a bad case of dejavu. "What do think Boss?"
"I will be right down." The Boss said, finally something worthwhile. He could not remember ever feeling this excited, expect for when… he could not remember. Either way this was a development that he was going to stay on top of.
Exiting his private the first thing Giovanni saw was Black Tulip. She had been transferred to HQ after the Johto lake incident; after a few she seemed had just lost her mojo. "I am knew you would be pleased." she said sticking out her chest with. "This time you won't be disappointed." she is repeating herself Giovanni thought never a good sign.
when he entered the lab, Giovanni was a gasped, he had never seen the scientist working so hard expert for when... it was there he just could not pull out that memory. So many of these things seemed to be familiar but he could not fully remember any of them. Black Tulip looked up at her boss concerned, he seemed to be in some sort of pain. Giovanni closed his focused only on retrieving his lost memories, all he needed to was find something to remind him of what he had forgotten. "Stand aside he order one of the scientist."
"yes boss." the young scientist quickly said moving out of the way with a bow to let his boss see the computer screen. Giovanni eye's widened all of these charts were bring back memories, but of what?
"what is that?" Giovanni asked pointing to a still frame from what appeared to be a security camera.
"that we believe is the Pokemon, sir." the scientist said
"Is that s... arg!" he cried and grabbed at his head which had started to throb.
"Boss are alright?" 009 cried running over. She stopped just short of her boss, unsure what to do. Then Giovanni began to laugh. "Sir are you alright." She asked tentatively
"Yes Domino, I feel fine." Giovanni said a smile slowly growing over lips. Giovanni looked back at image. It was of a tall Pokemon with a long tail. Though it was dark the Pokemon had an odd purple-ish tint to it. It look proud. Mewtwo. You may have beaten me once but it will not happen again. This time your mine.
