"I still can't believe Brooks Oliver is with Team Rocket..." Eloise said. "He's absolutely terrible, terrible, terrible!"

"Agreed." Akito nodded.

"What did he do that's so bad to you?" Duck scoffed. "Take candy away from you?"

"No, but he was going to marry Mr. Peabody's daughter!" Eloise replied. "He was only using her though!"

"Yeah, he only wanted to marry her for her money." Estelle said.

"Wow, he does sound like a jerk." Lexi had to admit.

"So, uh, how rich is this Rachel Peabody girl then?" Duck asked with an eager smirk.

"DUCK!" Everyone glared.

"Hey, I just wanna know, is she as cute as she is rich?" Duck asked innocently.

Everyone grumbled about Duck as they kept walking along until they were suddenly hit with fog.

"This is getting bad." Brock said.

Togepi was so scared he dug himself inside of Misty's bag.

"Uh-oh, how are we going to find our way now?" Estelle asked.

Celebi sounded worse from the fog.

"We better keep moving," Rev suggested. "If we stop now, it might be too late."

"Guys, look!" Pikachu saw someone coming which made everyone look forward.

"It's an Ursaring!" Sam recognized the Pokemon coming.

Everyone looked cautious until a little Teddiursa came beside the Ursaring which made Teddy stare at them. Teddy went up to them curiously. The wild Teddiursa and Ursaring took a long look at Teddy. Teddy looked at them too and felt connected to them somehow the same way Larvitar felt connected to the Tyranitar from earlier.

"Do I know you two from somewhere?" Teddy asked.

The Teddiursa and Ursaring looked to each other.

"Let your humans follow us." Ursaring told the other Teddiursa as she then left with her own.

Teddy nodded and followed.

"They want us to follow them." Jenny told the others since she could now talk to Pokemon like the Fudo siblings and Felicity.

And where they soon started to follow them.

"Mama, they look like me..." Teddy said to Estelle about the wild bear-like Pokemon.

"That's because that's an Ursaring, it's your evolved form and that would be it's child, a Teddiursa." Estelle told him.

"Hmm..." Teddy hummed at his kind.

They kept walking until they passed a wild Stantler in the fog who then took it from there.


Teddy stared at the Teddiursa and Ursaring as they went along without them and the Stantler took the lead from there.

"Reminds me of Bambi." Jenny commented about Stantler.

"Cool, a real Stantler." Eloise smiled.


They kept going further throughout the forest until the Stantler stopped in the grass to see yet another Pokemon of the forest.

"That one, I am not sure what is..." Felicity said about the ground Pokemon who looked playful as an otter.

"Aw! It's a Furret." Estelle smiled.

The Furret led them around by poking its head out at every angle as they walked through the grass.


The Furret then took them out to a body of water and went back to where it came from, stopping its help for them there.

"Hey, do you think this could be the Lake of Life that Diana's grandmother was talking about?" Brock spoke up.

"I think so, but just to be sure; we better place Celebi in it." Akito said.

Celebi shallowly breathed and slowly opened its eyes. Sam held onto Celebi nice and tight and walked through the lake water. Once he was deep enough in the water, he placed Celebi in the water. The other Pokemon of the forest watched this. Celebi's eyes opened under the water as it then glowed and made a huge impact under the water from its glowing and energizing.

"I think it's working." Vincent said.

The others looked awestruck at the underwater glow. Celebi then glowed after the glow darkened and it was able to fly all around while underwater and looked much happier.

"It worked." Estelle smiled.

"Oh, look at how happy it is." Eloise beamed at Celebi's energy levels going up.

Everyone was happy because Celebi was now happy again.

"Isn't it wonderful?" Emi smiled to Akito.

"It sure is." Akito smiled.

Lexi thought this was both awesome and sweet as she was here to witness it with the others. Even the other Pokemon agreed. Celebi soon flew over to them and decided to playfully splash Ash and Akito. Sam came back on dry land with the others. Ash and Akito called out and laughed from the splashing.

"Oh, you're gonna get it!" Akito called out playfully as he set Emi down and wanted to go in the water then.

"I'm with ya!" Ash jumped into the water with Akito then.

Once in the water, Akito changed into his merperson form. Sam came back into the water with them. Estelle, Vincent, Felicity, Jenny, and Eloise decided to go in as well, also becoming merpeople. Jenny did a double take, but then smiled, she still wasn't used to becoming a mermaid, but it was a lot more fun than regular swimming, plus she could breathe underwater and talked to anyone who lived down here. And where it was fun swimming with Celebi.

Many other underwater Pokemon joined them in the waters. Ash and Sam struggled as they rushed back up to the surface so they could breathe. Akito and the others joined them even if they could breathe underwater. Celebi made a glow around Ash and Sam which made them leap out of the water while glowing. Suddenly, the two boys were then flying with the Pokemon. Akito did the same.

Jenny, Eloise, Felicity, Estelle, and Vincent came up to the surface while laughing, they then watched as Ash, Sam, Akito, and Celebi then flew above the water. Akito soon changed back into his human form. The others smiled and waved as they were coming back to the surface. Celebi decided to heal Emi and Misty. Misty then bent her sore knee while Emi tried to stand straight up and the girls were both instantly better, much to the joy of Pikachu and Togepi.

"My knee's better!" Misty smiled.

"So's my ankle!" Emi added in.

"Thanks, Celebi!" the girls beamed at the wonderful Pokemon.

Celebi soon flew back to the boys.

"Emi, your ankle's better." Akito smiled to the girl he loved.

"Yeah and it's thanks to Celebi." Emi smiled.

"Really...?" Akito looked to the Celebi. "That's quite an impressive Pokemon."

"Oh, yes, yes, yes." Eloise agreed.

"I bet you could see the whole forest from up there." Larvitar smiled.

"Oh, you bet, little buddy," Akito smiled to Larvitar. "I haven't flown like that since Rev trained me after Tech would tutor us."


Meanwhile with Team Rocket and the Iron Masked Marauder...

"So, what were these Jessie and James like?" Brooks asked Butch and Cassidy.

"Total losers, they always failed the boss." Butch said.

"They're just wannabes," Cassidy scoffed. "Especially their pathetic talking Meowth."

"Yeah, it doesn't even know the move Pay Day." Butch said.

Cassidy laughed at that.

"Well, hopefully I'm with more reasonable people, especially to make that little 'Plaza Princess' pay for what she did to me." Brooks commented.

"You're holding a grudge against a six-year-old girl?" Butch replied. "Man, and people say I'm immature."

"She ruined my plans into marrying Rachel Peabody and where I would have then gotten all the money her family had." Brooks said.

"So, you only married for money?" Cassidy asked.

Brooks nodded.

"Interesting..." Butch smirked.

"Why else marry a hotel owner's daughter?" Brooks smirked back. "I was so close until that little brat got in the way, she's so spoiled and gets away with everything because everybody loves her precious mommy and nanny so much."

"Well, if you stick with us, you'll get more money than you could ever dream of." Cassidy smirked.

"Bring it on." Brooks smirked back.

"I think I like this guy." Butch said to Cassidy.
