Team Fellowship and Brock arrived to Cerulean City. "Cerulean City, at last," said Diane. "There's Paul," she spotted their rival in a distance.
"There's Blue too," Jeffrey saw Professor Oak's grandson.
"It will take more than your Ivysaur to win all eight badges, I caught more PokeMon than you do," said Blue arrogantly.
"Oh yeah! The PokeMon I caught earlier don't meet my expectations, weak PokeMon can never become strong," Paul spoke brutally.
"I take it that you released them all."
"That's right, I'll show you something strong the next time we battle," Paul left.
"Jeffrey, Diane, Brock, I never thought you would have caught up to here," Blue turned to face Team Fellowship.
"You owe me a battle," said Diane.
"Let's do this together," said Jeffrey
"If it's a double battle you wanted, very well then," Blue agreed.
"The battle between Blue Oak and the young couple is about to begin. Both sides will use all of their PokeMon, the battle is over when one side runs out of PokeMon," Brock announced as a referee.
"Pidgey, Rattata, I choose you," Professor Oak's grandson sent out his two PokeMon.
"Go Pidgey," Jeffrey sent out his own bird PokeMon.
"Go Squirtle," Diane called out her Water PokeMon.
"Let the battle begin!" Brock announced.
"I see gramps had given you the Squirtle," Blue commented. "Rattata, Tail Whip. Pidgey, Quick Attack on his Pidgey."
"Dodge and use Quick Attack on his Pidgey," Jeffrey ordered. His Pidgey struck Blue's Pidgey in full speed first and dodged the opponent's Quick Attack.
"Squirtle, Tail Whip," Diane ordered. Her Squirtle and Rattata wagged their tails lowering both sides' defense slightly.
"Pidgey, Quick Attack on his Pidgey," Jeffrey had Pidgey giving Blue's Pidgey a Quick Attack.
"Squirtle, Tail Whip once more," she had her Squirtle lowering the opponents' defense slightly one last time.
"Pidgey, use Gust on his Pidgey. Rattata, use Tail Whip once more," Blue ordered both of his PokeMon and his Rattata lowered its opponents' defense slightly one last time.
"Dodge and use Quick Attack," this caused Pidgey to dodge the Gust and stuck Blue's Pidgey in high speed defeating it during the process.
"Blue's Pidgey is unable to battle," Brock announced.
"Pidgey, return," said Blue calling his PokeMon back. "Abra, come out," he sent out another PokeMon.
"Pidgey, you take a rest," said Jeffrey and Pidgey stepped out. "Go Beedrill," he sent out his Bug PokeMon and it readied itself with Focus Energy.
"Rattata, use Hyper Fang on Squirtle. Abra, Teleport," Blue ordered and his Abra Teleported somewhere else.
"Dodge and use Tackle on Rattata," this caused Diane's Squirtle to dodge the attack and Tackled Blue's Rattata.
Beedrill found Blue's Abra, "Beedrill, use Twineedle on Abra," Jeffrey ordered. However, it used Fury Attack instead. "Abra, Teleport," Blue caused his Abra to teleport to avoid the fight. "Rattata, Hyper Fang on Beedrill," this caused Rattata to land a direct hit on Beedrill.
"Tackle on Rattata," Diane ordered. Her Squirtle defeated Blue's Rattata with a Tackle.
"Rattata is unable to battle," Brock announced.
"Squirtle, you should take a rest too," she had her Squirtle walked out.
"Rattata, return," Blue called back his PokeMon. "Wartortle, I choose you," he sent out a Water PokeMon appeared similar to Squirtle but it was bigger with ears and bushy tail.
"Wartortle, the Turtle PokeMon, its large tail is covered with rich, thick fur that deepens in color with age. The scratches on its shell are evidence of this Pokémon's toughness in battle," she checked her PokeDex.
"Your Squirtle must have evolved," said Diane. "Go Butterfree," she called out her Bug PokeMon.
"That's right. Wartortle, Water Gun on Beedrill," Blue ordered and his Wartortle squirted water at Jeffrey's Beedrill.
"Dodge and use Fury Attack on Wartortle," Jeffrey ordered, however his Beedrill ignored him and continued pursuing Abra.
"Butterfree, Sleep Powder," this caused her Butterfree to put Abra and Wartortle to sleep.
Beedrill took the opportunity to use Fury Attack on Blue's Abra and there were five critical hits on the head defeating Abra.
"Abra is unable to battle," Brock announced.
"Abra, return," Blue called back his PokeMo. "Dodge and use Water Gun on Beedrill," he ordered. His Wartortle dodged the Sleep Powder and defeated Jeffrey's Beedrill with Water Gun.
"Beedrill is unable to battle," Brock announced.
"Beedrill, return," Jeffrey called back his PokeMon in an upset tone.
"Wartortle, Water Gun," Blue ordered.
"Dodge and use Confusion," Diane had her Butterfree dodged the Water Gun and unleashed power from its mind on Wartortle. During the process, Wartortle became confused.
"Snap out of it!" Blue shouted, however his Wartortle was still confused.
"Keep up with Confusion," Diane had Butterfree continued to Confusion until it was defeated.
"Wartortle is unable to battle, victory goes to Jeffrey and Diane," Brock announced.
"Wartortle, return," Blue called back his PokeMon. "You two are impressive despite I got two badges," he gave the duo prize money.
"We got ourselves the Boulder Badge," said Jeffrey.
"But you're always plodding behind me. So here, I'll give you a little present as a favor," Blue gave the duo a Fame Checker. "A chatty gossip like you … That thing's perfect. I don't need it because I don't give a hoot about others. All right, this time I really am gone. Smell ya!" He left afterwards.
They stayed at the PokeMon Center for a night before going to the next gym. Brock and Jeffrey made PokeMon then passed it to their PokeMon, however Beedrill was not in a mood.
"Beedrill, what's wrong?" Jeffrey asked and it went outdoors. "What's gotten into Beedrill? When we were having a battle, it was defeated for not listening to me," he said to the nurse.
"Beedrill had been rebellious and now it was upset with the loss," she replied.
Jeffrey caught up with his Bug PokeMon, "Beedrill, I know you're upset that you lost. We have to work together as team, you have to cooperative." Suddenly, Beedrill was being netted. He jumped onto the net hanging onto it and there were laughter, "Prepare for trouble."
"Make it double."
"To infect the world with devastation."
"To blight all peoples within our nation."
"To denounce the evils of truth and love."
"To extend our wrath to the stars above."
"Emma."
"Clarence."
"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light."
"Surrender now or prepare to fight."
"Team Rocket!" Jeffrey, Diane, and Brock shouted as the Team Rocket duo were in the hot air balloon.
"Get off, you twerp! Ekans, Poison Sting," Emma called out her snake PokeMon that fired poison needles at Jeffrey.
The team leader felt the pain as he gritted his teeth and refused to let go. He drew his sword and cut the net freeing Beedrill. As it saw its trainer was taking damage, Beedrill popped the balloon sending it crashing down and Jeffrey landed in front of the basket. Diane and Brock along with their PokeMon caught up to them.
"You asked for it, Ekans, Poison Sting," Emma ordered and Beedrill took the attack instead of Jeffrey. Beedrill then prepared its Focus Energy.
"Bellsprout, come out," Clarence called out his PokeMon.
"Go Magikarp," Diane sent out her Magikarp.
"The weak fish doesn't stand a chance," Clarence mocked.
"Twineedle on Bellsprout," Jeffrey ordered and this time Beedrill was willing to listen to him. The poison bee PokeMon jabbed Bellsprout's head with stingers on its arms twice creating two critical hits and defeated it.
"Ekans, Poison Sting on Magikarp," Emma ordered.
"Dodge and use Tackle," Diane ordered. Magikarp jumped out of the way to dodge and Tackled Ekans.
"Ekans, Bite," Emma ordered.
"Dodge and use Tackle," Diane had Magikarp dodged the attack and Tackled Ekans. There was light in Magikarp as it was evolving. Its body elongated as it became serpentine with dorsal fins on its back, its face became dragon's with whiskers, and its tail had fins.
"Gyarados!" Emma and Clarence became frightened.
"Gyarados, the Atrocious PokeMon, it is an extremely vicious and violent Pokémon. When humans begin to fight, it will appear and burn everything to the ground with intensely hot flames," Diane checked her Gyarados.
"Gyarados, Tackle," Diane ordered. Gyarados listened to her without question and defeated Emma's Ekans in a Tackle.
"Pidgey, finish them with Whirlwind," Jeffrey ordered and Pidgey created a Whirlwind blowing Team Rocket away.
"Team Rocket's blasting off again!" Clarence and Emma shouted in unison.
"You did good all of you," said Jeffrey and Beedrill was joyed.
"You did good, Gyarados," Diane hugged her PokeMon and it was gentle to her despite its fierce appearance. Gyarados learned Bite since the evolution.
The next day, Jeffrey took Beedrill on a work out. Beedrill was changed as it was willing to listen to him and obeyed his commands without question.
