Update: I decided to update the chapter so that Fifi now lives in an actual house. Everything will be explained in a later chapter. It'll also b explained in my upcoming TTA Season 4 fanfic.

Chapter 10: Asking Fifi Out

Present Time . . .

"After that, we haven't seen Fifi until Hoenn and they went on a date after she saved Pikachu. That was when I made my promise to Fifi that I would let her travel with us once she finished school. A couple years later, we met her again in Kalos and now we're here," said Ash. "Pika," said Pikachu. "I can't believe you'd sink that low to defend yourself," said Sceptile, commenting on how Pikachu ruined Fifi's dress. Pikachu blushed red in embarrassment. "Hey. Whenever we fight Team Rocket, we always ruin their clothes. How is that any different?" asked Pikachu. "The difference is that Team Rocket deserve it each time," said Sceptile. "I don't know what's worse, Misty pestering me to get her a new bike or Fifi holding a grudge against Pikachu for ruining a dress of hers," said Ash.

Then, tears began to form in Fifi's eyes. "Why do you keep runneeng ahway frahm moi? I only wahnt to be your geerlfriend," said Fifi. "I'm sorry, Fifi. The truth is, I did kind of like you, but it's your odor that caused me to run away from you every time," said Pikachu. "Why deedn't you tell me you were bahthered by my odahr?" asked Fifi. "I didn't want to hurt your feelings," said Pikachu. "You deed hurt my feeleengs, by runneeng ahway," said Fifi. "With all the crazy adventures that Ash and I went through, I almost forgot about my old home until Serena won those tickets to Acme Acres and when you sent me that love letter," said Pikachu. "Why does Beembette like you ahnyway?" asked Fifi. "Why are you asking this?" asked Pikachu. "Beembette claims she'll choose hair ovair me yesterday," said Fifi. "She tried to flirt with me in Sinnoh cause she mistaken me for a skunk. I only painted myself to look like a skunk to scare off this Buneary that had a crush on me. But I had no feelings for Buneary. Unfortunately, Bimbette fell in love with me even more when she found out I was just a Pikachu. I had to decline her offer to be her boyfriend. I hope you can forgive me," said Pikachu. "Eet's going to tahke mahre zan a seemple ahpahlogy," said Fifi, turning away again.

At that moment, Pikachu got an idea. "Fifi, I promise you, I'm going to make it up to you," said Pikachu. "Ahnd how do you plahn on doing zat?" asked Fifi. "I know! Fifi, I'll take you out to dinner, tonight. We'll make it a double date since my Trainer and Serena are in relationship," said Pikachu. Fifi finally made eye contact with Pikachu. "And as a bonus, I can get you a new version of the dress I ruined before the date. We'll be at your home by 6:50 P.M.," said Pikachu. "You mean eet?" asked Fifi. "Cross my heart and hope to die. After hearing how Bimbette hurt your feelings, it makes me so glad I turned down her offer to be her boyfriend. I plan to make it more romantic than our first date," said Pikachu.

Fifi La Fume smiled and she wrapped her arms around Pikachu and began to hug him. "Bless you, Peekahchu! I've been waiteeng fahr ze day you finahlly ahsked me out on ahnahthair dahte! How cahn I stay mahd aht your cute fahce? Especially seence I steell hahve ziss," cried Fifi happily. She took out what looked like a locket. It was heart-shaped and was pink and gold. There was a gold chain on the locket too. The skunkette opened up the locket to show a picture of Pikachu. "You actually have a locket?" asked Pikachu. "Wee. I've kept eet weeth me evair seence our first dahte," said Fifi.

Fifi then began to kiss Pikachu silly, covering his face in pink lipstick smears. The purple skunkette giggled in between her kissing. "Aaaaaaaaaaaaawwwwwwww," said Serena & Bonnie. "How romantic," said Serena. "It sure is," said Bonnie. Fifi started to left off her smell, which caused everybody to hold their noses. Fifi then began to plant a really big kiss on Pikachu's right cheek. But that was a big mistake. For Fifi's lips were applying too much pressure on the electric sack in Pikachu's cheek. His cheeks started to spark. "Pikachuuuuuuuuuuuu!" cried Pikachu as he let off a Thunderbolt attack. It shocked everybody in the room, causing them to scream. Fifi dropped Pikachu in the process. "Fifi! I'm so sorry! Are you all right?!" asked Pikachu. "Nevair bettair," said Fifi. And she fell unconscious.

Later, Fifi regained consciousness. Pikachu had his face cleaned earlier. "Whaht hahppened?" asked Fifi. "You kinda got carried away with kissing Pikachu that you set off the electric pouch in his cheek and he zapped you," said Ash. "I guess I deed gaht cahrried ahway. Why does my voice sound funny?" asked Fifi. "You might want to look in the mirror," said Serena. Fifi looked at her reflection and saw her swollen lips. "Sahcrebleu! My leeps ahre ahll swahllen!" cried Fifi. "Sorry about that, Ms. La Fume," said Pikachu, blushing in embarrassment. "It'll wear off eventually," said Clemont. "When you cahme to peeck me up aht my hahme, I live aht a lahvely peenk house een ze ceety, surrounded by ahn electreec fence weeth a wahtch towair aht ziss ahddress," said Fifi, writing down her address on a small card. She handed it to Serena. "Why do you have an electric fence around it?" asked Ash. "Evair seence Peekahchu sahved me frahm Elymra, I wahnted to mahke sure she nevair tries to mahke me hair pet evair ahgain. I used to live ahn ahbahndahned peenk Cahdeellahc een ze ahcme ahcres junkyard. But now I live een a neecair hahme. See you tahnight," said Fifi. As Fifi was starting to leave, she brushed her tail against Pikachu, which caused him to blush. And she left Ash and co.'s motel room. "Zere's gaht to be a way I cahn keess Peekahchu weethout reesk of getteeng zahpped on ze leeps. But whaht?" asked Fifi to herself. She began to think for a moment.

After Fifi left, Ash, Serena and Pikachu began to discuss about the preparations for tonight. "Okay, now that Pikachu asked Fifi out, we need to live up to his promise," said Ash. "So what do we do?" asked Serena. "Serena, you, Bonnie and Pikachu get Fifi's new dress. Leave the restaurant reservations to me," said Ash. "You think you can actually afford a reservation at someplace fancy?" asked Serena. "Yes. When you're a two time Pokémon league champion, you'll get the best luxury at certain places. But I don't let the fame get to my head unlike a certain loud mouthed oaf from Orange Star City," said Ash. "I thought it was called Hercule City," said Bonnie. "Yeah, but I liked the original name better than its new name," said Ash. "In the meantime, I'll build something that should help train Pikachu to resist Fifi's smell. The future is now, thanks to science!" said Clemont. Ash, Pikachu, Serena and Bonnie went to do their errands, while Clemont started to build another invention.


Pikachu has finally decided to give Fifi a chance and has asked her out on another date. The first date that the characters mentioned will be shown in a flashback in a later chapter. Anyway, very soon, I'm going to start working on the first episode of my planned Tiny Toons Season 4 fanfic. Next chapter, Team Rocket are going to try to steal Pikachu as usual, but will experience bad luck, Wile E. Coyote style . . .
