The boat stopped. It was next to the docks, which, for some reason, was very foggy.

"What's up with all of the fog?" Max wondered aloud.

"No idea…" Brock said.

"Man…" Ash groaned. "How am I supposed to find the next trainer now?"

"Ash," Dawn started. "You're too excited, but can't your next battle wait? We all want to relax.."

"You don't understand, I.." Ash started.

"…Am going to relax?" Misty interrupted.

"….Fine…" Ash muttered.

Little did they know, 3 people were watching them. That is, 2 people and one Pokemon.

"Those twerps won't know what hit 'em!" Meowth said.

"Indeed!" James exclaimed.

Jessie hit both of them. "Pipe down!" she whispered. "Do you want them to hear us?"

"A suit that would make you 3 idiots quiet won't stop them from noticing you," a voice behind them said.

"That voice…" Jessie, James, and Meowth whispered together. They turned around and saw the boss of Team Rocket, Giovanni, standing right behind them.

"Giovanni, SIR!" they exclaimed, standing up immediately.

"Well, well, well," Giovanni said. "If it isn't Jessie, James, and Meowth."

"You remember our names?" Meowth asked in shock.

"Idiot. Of course I do. At least, I just did." Giovanni replied.

"What are you doing here, boss?" James asked.

"I'm here to give you all something," Giovanni said promptly.

"MONEY?!" Jessie exclaimed with hope.

"ME SITTING IN YOUR LAP?!" Meowth exclaimed.

"BOTTLE CAPS?!" James exclaimed, which caused Jessie, Meowth, and Giovanni to look at him. "Never mind…" James sighed.

"I'm not here to give you any of that," Giovanni said. Jessie, James, and Meowth's hopeful faces vanished. "I want to give you this." Giovanni held something that looked like a gym badge, but it had the Team Rocket symbol.

"What is that?" Meowth asked.

"It's the Rocket Badge," Giovanni told them. "It's not just an ordinary badge. Put it on Meowth."
"ME?!" Meowth exclaimed. "NO WAY!"

However, Jessie and James put it on Meowth, much to his displeasure.

"Okay…it's on me. Now what?" Meowth asked.

"Press it," Giovanni instructed.

Meowth did just that. Meowth used Flame-Thrower!

"WHOA!" Jessie, James, and Meowth exclaimed.

"Press it again," Giovanni said.

Meowth pressed it excitedly. Meowth used Water-Gun!

"Does this Rocket Badge make me learn all Pokemon Moves?!" Meowth squeaked.

"No," Giovanni replied. "It makes you learn Flame-Thrower, Water-Gun, Thunder-Bolt, Bullet-Seed, and Pay-Day."

"THANKS, BOSS!" Jessie, James, and Meowth exclaimed.

"Just don't screw up," Giovanni said.

"We won't!" the trio replied.

Without another word, Giovanni left.

"Whoa!" Meowth exclaimed. "This is like the Ultimate TM!"

"With this, we can swipe Pikachu!" James suggested.

"We shall, but before that…" Jessie said. "Meowth, I'm going to use you in the Pokemon Contest here."

"SAY WHAT?!" Meowth exclaimed.

Meanwhile…..

"OH BOY!" Dawn exclaimed. "May, aren't you excited for the Pokemon Contest here?"

"I SURE AM!!!" May replied happily.

"I don't see the point of these contests.." Misty, Ritchie, and Gary muttered.

"COME ON OUT, PIPLUP AND CYNDAQUILL!" Dawn yelled as she threw 2 Pokeballs.

"Piplup!" Piplup said.

"Cynda-cyndaquil!" Cyndaquill said.

"YOU TOO, BLAZIKEN AND BEAUTIFLY!"

"Blaze….IKEN!" Blaziken yelled.

"Beautifly!" Beautifly said.

"Are you ready, Dawn?" May asked.

"I sure am!" Dawn replied.

Ring, Ring!

"What the…" Ash whispered. He reached into his pocket and saw the Blastoise badge ringing.

"Hey Ash, where'd you get that neat Blastoise Badge?" Max asked.

"From Blue, I already told you," Ash answered.

"Ash, I really think you need to see a doctor," Brock said.

"Look, I.." Ash started, but his Blastoise Badge interrupted him.

"Green…is near…." It said.

"Did you guys hear that?" Ash asked his friends.

"Hear WHAT?!" they yelled.

"…Nothing…look, I got to go to the bathroom…" Ash muttered, and he ran off.

"That's IT!" Misty exclaimed. "I don't care what he says, I'm getting an appointment with a doctor for Ash!"

"THANK YOU!" everyone else exclaimed in relief.

Meanwhile, with Ash….

"Pikachu, I think the badge is telling me that the next trainer is coming!" Ash said to Pikachu.

"Pika!" Pikachu said in agreement.

"GREEN'S CLOSE! SHE'S COMING!" the Blastoise Badge kept on saying.

"Okay, OKAY!" Ash yelled at it. "Just tell me where she is!"

"Right….in front of you…." The badge whispered.

Ash and Pikachu stopped and looked at the girl in front of them. She had a hat, brown hair, shorts, a black shirt, and a blue jacket.

"It's about time you came…." She said.
