On the island, they met Dr. Benton C. Quest and his son, "Johnny" and his assistant, "Race". He explained that he was cloning the legendary Pokemon, "Mew" from his last expedition when he accidentally unleashed it and got his leg crushed by a filing cabinet.
Inside a tent, they met 3 teenagers. "These are the offsprings of my co-workers." Dr. Benton said. "This is, "Veronica", "Eric", and "Rachel"
Veronica was a fire/ice Pokemon trainer with curly blonde hair, a red top with fire prints, a skirt with snowflake patterns, and boots. She had a Swinub, a Ninetails in Alola form, a beartic, an Arcanine, a torracat, and a Numel.
Eric was a water/grass types trainer with shaved black hair, a green tank, ripped shorts, and hiking boots. He had a Brionne, a Frogadier, a Swampert, a gogoat, a Tropius, and an Abomasnow.
Rachael and was a bug/ground type trainer with short red hair in a brown fedora, a Hawaiian shirt with bugs on it, ripped jeans, and sneakers. She had a butterfree, a beautifly, a scizor, a Hippowdon, a Donphan, and a Steelix.
Brock started to fall in love with Veronica and Rachael. "Being scientist daughters, I can learn love science."
"Here's a new science to study on leaving people alone," Max said as he grabbed his ear.
Lilo explained that Team Rocket has stolen their Pokemon. Rachael recognized them on their wanted poster.
"Pikachu!" Ash shouted.
Meanwhile, in the abandoned cloning place, Royal Pain was testing the clone Pokemon, who looked like the original with markings on their bodies. It told the clones to find the scientist's children's Pokemon so he can clone them and let the fake Bulbasaur and Geodude lure them into their trap and force them to fight.
The fake Bulbasaur and Geodude found them by the tents. Ash and Brock thought they were the real deal. "Bulbasaur!" Ash shouted
"Geodude!" Brock shouted.
Pikachu translated Geodude and it told Pikachu to let the humans go into the lab and find a room that says, "Safe room" while Bulbasaur takes the scientist's children's Pokemon to safety. "There's something wrong about these Pokemon." Misty said, "They got markings on their bodies."
"Maybe they got a makeover." Stitch suggested.
As the fake Geodude were leading them to the "Safe" room, Royal Pain used knockout gas. Meanwhile, Fake Bulbasaur lead the scientist's children's Pokemon into a cage and trapping them. Royal Pain came in and started cloning them.
There it contacted Mewtwo and told them the clones are ready.
Note: Veronica, Rachael, and Eric are named after Veronica Taylor, Rachael Lillis, and Eric Stuart. The voice actors of Ash, Misty, and Brock in the original Pokemon series.
