As Ash and Serena made their way down to the depths of the Rocket Base below the Game Corner in Celadon City, they encountered the executives they met at Mt. Moon. "So, we meet again twerp," Jessie said as Ash approached a door they most certainly led to their boss.

"This time we'll prove to the boss we're not weaklings," James said as he got Koffing ready for battle.

"Then we'll do a double battle," Ash said as he prepared both May and Claire ready. "Claire, Dragon Rush! May, Flamethrower!" Both May and Claire unleashed their attacks on Koffing and Ekans as they came out, Knocking both of them out. Meowth just comically put an X around his neck.

"Serena, I guess you're ready to attack?" Meowth asked

"Thought you'd never ask Meowth," Serena said as she fired a Thunderbolt at Team Rocket, sending them through the roof and opening the door at the same time. "Ash, it looks like a guy in an Italian suit is the leader."

Ash and Serena walked into the next room and saw the man she described. "Are you the leader of Team Rocket?" He asked.

"I guess those executives of mine couldn't take care of a little pest like you," said the man. "I'm Giovanni, and I'm indeed the leader of this organization. If you think you can beat me, be prepared to be disappointed."

"Don't be so sure." Ash grabbed Gardenia's PokéBall and let out the flowering Ivysaur girl while Giovanni let out Onix. Ash just shook his head as he looked at the supposed leader. "Choosing a weakness? Aren't you supposed to be smarter than this?"

"I'll show you! Onix, Rock Throw!"

"Gardenia, strike with Razor Leaf before he gets a chance!" Gardenia proved to be faster than Onix and she easily knocked out Onix. After Onix returned to his PokéBall from being defeated, Gardenia was enveloped by a white light. As the light dispersed, she stood there with her dress a bit longer and her a bit taller, now matching Serena's height of 5'3". The flower on her back was now in full bloom and smelled real nice to Ash. "Gardenia, you evolved to Venusaur."

"So what!? You won't win against Rhyhorn!" Ash had Gardenia switch with Dawn. "Heh, now look who's choosing wrong."

"Dawn is faster than you think. She's been training with Serena. Dawn, Hydro Pump!" The blunette Wartortle launched her most powerful Water-type move and hit Rhyhorn with great speed and accuracy. As Rhyhorn lay unconscious, Dawn too was evolving. As she emerged from her white light, Dawn stood with two canons protruding from the back of her shell dress and again stood at 5'3".

"Two evolutions!? How!?"

"Shows how much I love my Pokémon. The only one I need to evolve is May." He let out the Charmeleon and she readied herself for battle.

"Persian would be more than happy to defeat your measly Charmeleon. Come out and use Bite!"

"May, counter with Flamethrower!" May opened her mouth and flames hit Persian full force, knocking it out. May glowed and grew wings then yelled in victory as she stood there at 5'3". "Alright! 3 evolutions at once and we won against the leader of Team Rocket."

"Augh! My organization shall retreat for now. I cannot risk our hideout being found out, but I won't forget this!" As he vanished, he dropped what seemed to be a pair of night-vision goggles.

"Ash, these look like those Silph Scope developed by Silph Company," Serena said as she gave them to him. "It's said that they can see and uncover Ghost-types."

"This should help us catch a new Pokémon," Ash replied. "I've always wanted a Ghost Pokémon."

"Lavender Town's Pokémon Tower has the Ghost-types you want then. Let's stay over at the Pokémon Center here and head back there in the morning.".

"Agreed." They got back up to the where the casino was and headed back to Celadon's Pokémon Center to regroup and sleep for the night, as the journey continues.

A/N: Okay guys, let's hope this was to your expectations for the training filler I was doing for this area. I've been playing Yellow like the anime, so I've been trying to super train them to Lv 50 before getting my fourth badge since Sabrina's Pokémon on Yellow are at Lv 50 so I hope it does meet your expectations. R&R plz
