Team Fellowship traveled miles through Route 19 and into Route 20 by riding Lapras. "It's the Sea Foam Islands," said Misty.
"We'll have to go through there to reach Cinnabar Island," said Jeffrey.
They finally made it to the islands and had a lunch break at the beachside before entering the caves.
Many of the wild Pokemon inhabiting the caves inside Sea Foam Islands were Water type such as Slowpoke and Seel. Diane caught a Seel and Slowpoke that were sent to Professor Oak's laboratory. She encountered a wild Water type Pokemon that appeared like Seel except it was not sticking its tongue out.
"Dewgong, the Sea Lion Pokemon, It loves to snooze on bitterly cold ice. The sight of this Pokémon sleeping on a glacier was mistakenly thought to be a mermaid by a mariner long ago," Diane checked her Pokedex.
"Vileplume, I need you," Diane had her Vileplume in position.
The wild Dewgong used Aurora Beam on Vileplume.
"Dodge and use Petal Dance," Diane ordered. Her Vileplume dodged the attack and fired petals at the wild Dewgong. It was super effective and wild Dewgong was defeated.
Not all the inhabitants inside the caves were Water type; there were more wild Zubat than wild Golbat.
Team Fellowship progressed further and reached a point where they would need to cross the water.
"The current is too strong, Lapras can't swim through it," said Misty.
"Look over there," Diane saw two large round boulders.
"Geodude, we need your Strength," Jeffrey called upon his rock Pokemon. "Transform," he took Machop form. Geodude, Jeffrey, Diane, Misty, and Brock pushed a boulder together into the water blocking the flow of water. After they pushed another boulder into the water, there was no current in the water.
Jeffrey and Diane used the fishing rods. Like in the ocean; wild Magikarp, Horsea, and Krabby were fished out through the use of the Good Rod. The Super Rod enabled the duo to fish out wild Horsea, Krabby, and Gyarados.
Jeffrey and Diane called most of the Pokemon they got in Kanto into their Pokeballs except Lapras. Misty and Brock did the same.
When traveling through the water; wild Seel, Dewgong, Tentacool, Tentacruel, Slowpoke, and Zubat were encountered.
"Guys, look," Diane pointed to Pokemon that appeared like a huge blue bird landing into a rocky island through an opening and began to rest.
"Articuno, the Freeze Pokemon, Articuno is a legendary bird Pokémon that can control ice. The flapping of its wings chills the air. As a result, it is said that when this Pokémon flies, snow will fall," Jeffrey checked his Pokedex.
"Let's ignore it," said Jeffrey, however a net landed onto Articuno abruptly waking it giving it electric shock.
"Now what?" Diane muttered.
"Prepare for trouble," two familiar figures appeared.
"Make it double."
"To infect the world from 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, Misty, and Brock shouted in unison while Lapras got closer to the rocky island.
"Let that Articuno go or you'll be sorry!" Jeffrey shouted.
"Sorry? I don't think so. Stay out of our way," said Emma.
"Not if we can help it," said Diane.
"Arbok, I choose you," Emma sent out her cobra Pokemon.
"You too, Victreebel," Clarence sent out his flycatcher Pokemon. "Get them! Not me!" he yelled in frustration when Victreebel bit on him affectionately.
"Go Alakazam," Jeffrey sent out his psychic Pokemon.
"Go Vulpix," Diane sent out her fox Pokemon.
"Arbok, Acid on Alakazam," Emma ordered.
"Victreebel, Vine Whip," Clarence ordered.
"Psychic on Arbok," Jeffrey had his Alakazam unleashing a power psychic power on Arbok. It was super effective and Arbok was defeated.
"Flamethrower on all of them, don't hurt Articuno," Diane ordered and her Vulpix unleashed a powerful stream of flames. It was super effective on Victreebel defeating it and triggered an explosion sending the Team Rocket duo along with their Pokemon flying into the air.
"Team Rocket's blasting off again!" Emma and Clarence shouted in unison.
"Alakazam, return," Jeffrey called Alakazam back. "You did a good job, take a rest. Ivysaur, I need you," he sent out his Grass type Pokemon. "Cut the net with Razor Leaf," Jeffrey had his Ivysaur firing razor-leaves from its plant on its back and they sliced the net without hurting Articuno.
"We're not here to hurt you," Diane said to the Articuno. The legendary Pokemon looked at Team Fellowship carefully and it allowed them to pass without a fight.
Finally they got out of the caves and camped out in the beachside.
The next day, Team Fellowship had breakfast before continuing to travel. Before they got into Lapras' back, a familiar face approached them. "Chester? How did you get here?" Diane recognized the bird keeper.
"One of my birds flew me over the sea and stopped here. Want to see how they strong have gotten?"
"Sure."
"The battle between Chester and the young couple is about to begin. Both sides will use all Pokemon and can substitute. The battle is over when one side runs out of Pokemon," Brock announced as referee.
"Farfetch'd, Dodrio, I choose you," Chester sent out two of his Pokemon.
"Go Geodude," Jeffrey sent out his rock Pokemon.
"Go Goldeen," Diane sent out her goldfish Pokemon.
"Let the battle begin," Brock announced.
"Farfetch'd, Fury Cutter on Geodude. Dodrio, Tri Attack on Goldeen," Chester ordered.
"Rock Blast on Dodrio," Jeffrey ordered and his Geodude hurled boulders at Dodrio. It was super effective and Dodrio was defeated in two strikes.
"Show Farfetch'd Waterfall," Diane ordered and her Goldeen glowed blue causing a column of water to rise up then collided it on Farfetch'd defeating it while climbing it.
"Farfetch'd and Dodrio are unable to battle," Brock announced.
"Farfetch'd, Dodrio, return," Chester called back his defeated Pokemon. "Fearow, Pidgeot, you're up," he sent out his last two Pokemon and one of them had evolved recently.
"Goldeen, you take a break," Diane called off her Goldeen. "Vaporeon, you're up," she sent out her animal-like Pokemon.
"Fearow, Fury Attack on Vaporeon. Pidgeot, show Geodude fly," Chester ordered and his Pidgeot flew up high.
"Aurora Beam on Fearow," Diane had her Vaporeon firing a cold rainbow beam on Fearow. It was super effective and Fearow was defeated.
"Fearow is unable to battle," Brock announced.
"Fearow, return," Chester called back his defeated Pokemon.
Pidgeot swooped at Geodude and it was not very effective.
"Rock Blast on Pidgeot," Jeffrey ordered and his Geodude return the favor by hurling boulders at Pidgeot. It was super effective and Pidgeot was defeated in three strikes.
"Pidgeot is unable to battle, victory goes to Jeffrey and Diane," Brock announced.
"Pidgeot, return," Chester called back his defeated Pokemon. "You did your best, take a nice long rest," he turned to the duo giving them prize money. "I'll stay here until the birds are all rested, have a safe journey."
"You too," said Diane.
"You did good, Geodude. Return," Jeffrey praised before calling back Geodude into the Pokemon.
"You did real great, Vaporeon," Diane hugged her Vaporeon.
Team Fellowship got into Lapras' back with Vaporeon swimming next to them and continued traveling through Route 20. During the process, they encountered more wild Tentacool than wild Tentacruel. Team Fellowship made it halfway and stopped at a small sandy island where they had lunchbreak.
Before Team Fellowship continued traveling, a beautiful blond young woman wearing pink bikini top with a pink cloth wrapped around her waist approached them, "Are you all going to Cinnibar Island?"
"Yes, we are," Jeffrey replied.
"My name is Melissa, want to have a battle?"
"How about we go out for a swim together instead of battling?" Brock flirted with her while holding her hand.
"Don't even think about it, Brock," Misty dragged him away by the ear.
"The battle between Melissa and the young couple, Jeffrey and Diane, is about to begin. Both sides will use all Pokemon and can substitute. The battle is over when one side runs out of Pokemon," Brock announced as referee.
"Poliwag, Goldeen, I choose you," Melissa sent out her first two Pokemon.
"Go Goldeen," Diane sent out her own Goldeen.
"Go Ivysaur," Jeffrey had his Ivysaur ready.
"Let the battle begin," Brock announced.
"Poliwag, Hypnosis on Ivysaur. Goldeen, Tail Whip," Melissa ordered and her Goldeen wagged its tail to lower both opponents' defense slightly.
"Stop Poliwag with Vine Whip," Jeffrey ordered and his Ivysaur grabbed Poliwag with its vines then slammed it onto the sand. It was super effective and Poliwag was defeated.
"Show her Goldeen Fury Attack," Diane ordered and her Goldeen jabbed Melissa's Goldeen with its horn defeating it in five strikes.
"Melissa's Goldeen and Poliwag are unable to battle," Brock announced.
"Poliwag, Goldeen, return," Melissa called back her defeated Pokemon. "You two take a nice long rest. Seel, Horsea, you're up," she sent out her next two Pokemon. "Seel, Aurora Beam on Ivysaur. Horsea, Twister," Melissa had her Horsea casting a twister on both opponents.
"Vine Whip on Seel," Jeffrey ordered and his Ivysaur grabbed Seel with its vines then slammed it onto the sand. It was super effective and Seel was defeated.
"Fury Attack on Horsea," Diane had her Goldeen jabbing Horsea with its horn defeating it in five strikes.
"Seel and Horsea are unable to battle," Brock announced.
"Seel, Horsea, return," Melissa called back her defeated Pokemon. "You two take a nice long rest. Staryu, Psyduck, you're up," she sent out her last two Pokemon. "Staryu, Camoflauge. Psyduck, Confusion on Ivysaur," Melissa ordered and her Staryu blended in with the sand becoming Ground-type. Unlike Diane's Psyduck, Melissa's Psyduck had no problem with using the move as it unleashed a psychic power on Ivysaur and it was super effective.
"Goldeen, Fury Attack on Staryu," Diane ordered and her Goldeen jabbed Staryu with its horn defeating it in five strikes.
"Vine Whip on Psyduck," Jeffrey had his Ivysaur grabbing Psyduck with its vines then slammed it onto the sand defeating it.
"Staryu and Psyduck are unable to battle, victory goes to Jeffrey and Diane," Brock announced.
"Staryu, Psyduck, return," Melissa called back her defeated Pokemon. "Take a nice long rest," she turned to the duo giving them prize money. "Your Goldeen is strong," Melissa said to Diane. "My father is working on a machine in the Cinnabar Laboratory," she gave out some information.
"Do you know what the machine does?" Jeffrey asked.
"Why don't you go see him," Melissa dodged the question.
"Ivysaur, you did a good job. Return," Jeffrey called back his Ivysaur. "You take a rest."
Team Fellowship got into Lapras' back with Goldeen and Vaporeon swimming along then continued traveling through Route 20. Finally, they made it to Cinnabar Island.
