"A "Shocking" turn of Ee-vents!"
Jackson's Mom: So an insane old man dropped his lastest victim's son off here and is stalking you both? Jackson:Essentially, yes. JM:Well damn. Trace: Hey, wait up! I totally forgot something. JM: This him? Jackson:Yep.
Trace seems to have something important to inform Jackson of...
Trace: When Oak trapped me in that weird labcoat dimension, I found a bunch of strange stuff and decided to help myself! I think these are Pokédexes! Narrator: Usually parents chew their kids out when they steal, but I couldn't be happier! JM (To Jackson): Steal and I'll flatten you. Jackson(Frightened): Noted. Also, why are so okay with all of this. JM: Not my first rodeo, sport. Kids were put in way worse situations during my childhood. Most involving Hypno. Trace: Can we focus please? Oak'll show up at point! We need a plan! Jackson: Call the authorities? JM: Called the nearest retirement home? Narrator: Move to Orre? Nobody goes there. Trace: All good choices, but against Oak's weird tech, they aren't good enough! We need something strong! Narrator:Hm...The ever-so captivating narrator had an idea, but the risk was far greater than what he was comfortable with. It was bad. Perhaps even worse than Professor Oak...
Jackson: We CAN hear you, ya know? Narrator: *sighs* There is a rumor that the proffesor and I took some interest into involving a powerful Pokémon. They say it could crush your very spirit with a glare. It could turn your skeleton into jelly with a slight wave! IT COULD TANK EVEN THE MOST SUPER EFFECTIVE HITS! IT DIDN'T CARE IF THEY WERE CRITS! IT WOULD TANK THAT SH#T!
Everyone else:... Narrator: The point being, This Pokémon, if it exists, may stand a chance against Oak! Jackson: We're putting our time and energy at stake for a rumor? Narrator: Every rumor has a little truth in them somewhere... JM: Not the intentional ones. I assure you. Jackson: Luckily for us, we're all desperate enough to look into it. Where do we look? Narrator: They say it lurks in the Cerulean Cave, where dangerous Pokémon live. Jackson: That... pretty much clinches it. We should go there. JM: We leave at noon. Narrator: Well... Only the Elite Four and Champion have access to the cave. It's that dangerous. Trace (pulling Jackson closer to him): Then we will become champions! Jackson: What?! Narrator: "We?" Oh no, YOU aren't going anywhere. Jackson can collect all 8 Gym Badges, challenge the Pokémon League, and face this powerful and possibly fictional Pokémon, and lastly, defeat Professor Oak all by himself. Jackson: What?!?! JM: I'm okay with this, as long as you call every now and then. Jackson: WHAT?!?!?!
Trace: No! Dad, Oak took you away from me! I can't let him get away with that! Sitting around and doing jack diddly squat won't help pull it off. *grabs a Poké Ball and Pokédex* Getting stronger will! *races off* Narrator: Trace! Wait! Listen, I'm going to follow him...somehow. You need to get acquainted with that other Pokémon, stat! Jackson:... Oh, whatever! *grabs the remaining Poké Ball* What else could possibly happen?! *throws it* *out pops an Eevee* JM: Aw...! An Eevee! Eevee:... Jackson: Maybe this won't be so bad! *reaches out to Eevee* Eevee: *snarls* *Eevee leaps onto Jackson's head, and when he or his mom trys to touch it, it snarls some more* Eevee:... Jackson: Why do I even bother...?
Trace: Okay, I'm outside of Pallet Town... Sorry, Dad. I have to do this. *clutches Poké Ball* Oak: Do what? Trace: Ahh! You! Oak: Hello, grandson of mine! Trace: I'm not your grandson, you psychopath! Oak: Ohohoho! Kids really do say the silliest things. Speaking of kids, this one is awfully fond of them... Trace: Wait..."This one"? *Oak unleashes a Hypno, causing Trace to gasp in horror* Oak: I think it's time you start seeing things MY way... Hypno, you know what to do. Hypno: *nods* Trace: No... No! NO!!!
