Chapter 16: Breakfast and Memory Sharing Part 1
The next morning, Ash, Pikachu and their friends arrived outside of Fifi's electric fence to have breakfast with Fifi and her mother. Pikachu was currently perched on Ash's shoulder. Ash and Serena already told Bonnie that Fleur was already married. After getting scanned, the group of Pokémon Trainers and Pikachu went into the border of the electric fence and into her house. Fifi La Fume was waiting for them. "Bahnjour," said Fifi. "Hello, Fifi," said Ash. "Pika," said Pikachu. Pikachu jumped off of Ash's shoulder and into Fifi's arms. Pikachu began to rub cheeks with Fifi. "Ooh la la! Usually I'm ze one who shows ze ahffection first," said Fifi. "Well, my Pikachu is starting to like you since I convinced him to give you a chance," said Ash.
Fifi's eyes widened when she heard what Ash said. "Ees eet true, Peekahchu?! You're stahrteeng to like me?!" asked Fifi excitedly. "Yes. Why else do you think I chose you over Bimbette? And I guess our kiss at the park really opened my heart toward you. When I look past your smell, I don't see a stinky skunk. I see a beautiful girl who wants to be loved," said Pikachu. Fifi then wrapped her arms and tail around Pikachu. "Le squee! I knew zat you cahred fahr moi!" said Fifi excitedly. The purple skunkette kissed Pikachu all over his face, covering it in pink lipstick marks. Pikachu's eyes turned into pink hearts and he sighed happily. "Now I know how Mickey Mouse feels," said Pikachu. Fifi giggled. "I ahlmahst fahrgot how cute you look when your fahce ees cahvered een my leepsteeck," said Fifi. She then began rubbing noses with him. "Where's your mother?" asked Serena. "She's een ze keetchen, cookeeng our breakfahst," said Fifi. Everybody went inside the house and saw Fleur was cooking a big French breakfast.
After cleaning Pikachu's face, Fifi, Ash, Pikachu and the others sat down at the dining room table. Some of the dishes Fleur cooked included French Toast, Chocolat Chaud (a French Hot Chocolate), Belgian Waffles and more. "Zanks fahr hahveeng breakfahst weeth me. I usually eat weeth my mahthair evair seence she stahrted leeving weeth me. But eet's steell kind of lahnely. So eateeng weeth friends, especially weeth a boy I'm een lahve weeth mahkes me very hahppy," said Fifi. Very soon, everybody started eating. "Wow! This food's really good! No wonder you're a famous chef!" said Clemont. "Merci. I'm glahd you like eet. You two must be Clemahnt ahnd Bahnnie," said Fleur. "Mm-hmm," said Clemont & Bonnie. "Ahsh tahld me ahbout how you're ahn eenventahr, Clemahnt. He's ahlso tahld me how your seestair hahs zat unhealthy hahbeet of playing mahtchmakair between you ahnd rahndahm geerls. Rahmahnce doesn't wahrk zat way," said Fleur.
Fleur turned to Bonnie. "Eet ees naht wise to sink a wahmahn ees perfect because of hair looks. A laht of good wahmen hahve been lahst to bahd mahrriages zan to wahr, fahmine, disease ahnd deesahstair," said Fleur. "You can say that again. Bonnie was trying to pair her brother with Elmyra and Bimbette Skunk of all girls," said Ash. "Defeenitely naht zose two, especially Elmyra! Eet seems to me of ahll ze ahneemahl residents of Ahcme Ahcres she wahnts ahs a pet, she cahvets my daughtair. I hahd Elmyra ahrrested mahre times zan I cahn count!" said Fleur. She showed everybody a photo of Elmyra's mugshot. "Ziss mugshaht wahs tahken dureeng zat whahle phahny lahwsuit scahndal. Ahs fahr Beembette, she's been trying to steal ze boys zat Fifi hahs hair eye on! Beembette may be beauteeful ahnd reech, but she's spoiled. Know ziss, young lahdy. A beauteeful fahce could mahsk a deadly veepair," said Fleur.
"She's right. Last night, Bimbette attempted to steal Pikachu from Fifi, but Pikachu resisted the temptation and chose Fifi over her," said Ash. "Evair seence we mahved out of ze junkyard, Elmyra hahs been on a weeld goose chahse trying to find my hahme. So fahr, she hahsn't, zank goodness. 'Cause ze lahst time I encountered hair, eet seems zat she's lahseeng hair sahneety," said Fifi. "Spritzee," said Pinky & Violet. "That girl should be put in a straightjacket," said Serena.
"You said that Meowth was trying to kill you yesterday, right?" asked Pikachu. "Wee. Ahlthough just like when Jessie ahnd Jahmes were stahlkeeng you, zey seem to bahckfire befahre zey could be eeneetiated. I found out Meowth wahs trying to do me een when he tried to treeck me eento tahkeeng piano lessahns weeth a piano reegged weeth dynahmite. But I kept meesseeng ze reegged nahte. On purpahse zat ees, cause othair toons hahve tried ziss treeck een ze pahst. He grew so eempahtient, he shahved me ahside ahnd played ze cahrrect nahtes, getteeng fried eenstead," said Fifi. "Although it's curiosity that normally killed the cat. But in this case, impatient would've," said Pikachu. Fifi and the others laughed due to Pikachu's joke.
"So why does Meowth hate you to the point that he wants to kill you?" asked Bonnie. "I think I may know why. You see, Fifi along with her mentor, Pepé were the first to come to our rescue during the event when Pikachu got amnesia and Team Rocket tricked him into thinking he worked for them. They had Pikachu paralyze us and we were captured. They were so drunk with power thinking they were invincible with Pikachu at their side. Team Rocket got too big for their britches and decided to hold a public execution of us in order to send the world into fear and give in to their demands," said Ash. "Wee. Eet hahppened dureeng ze summair when I tried to get Jahhnny Pew's autahgrahph. Ze event of when I sahved you begahn when I wahs destroying my Jahhnny Pew merchahndise ahftair I found out how selfeesh he wahs. Eet wahs ahlso a time where I ahlmahst gahve up on rahmahnce," said Fifi.
3 Years Ago . . .
Pepé Lew Pew was walking down the street, on his way to visit Fifi La Fume at the Acme Acres Junkyard. As he was walking, he began to smell smoke. Smoke that smelled like there was a fire. He ran toward the source of the smoke, which was coming from the Acme Acres Junkyard. When Pepé got there, he saw that there was a bonfire near Fifi's Cadillac. The male skunk also saw Fifi toss some items related to Johnny Pew into the flames.
"Sahcrebleu! Fifi, whaht een ze wahrld ahre you doing?" asked Pepé. Fifi turned and spotted her mentor. "I'll tell you whaht I'm doing. I'm destroying ahll of my Jahhnny Pew memahrahbeelia! I gaht a chahnce to finahlly meet heem so zat I could get hees autahgrahph! But he said zat he hahd no pen! So he hahd to mahke me wait. While we went on a dahte aht a movie zeatair, he fahlls fahr ziss othair geerl skunk nahmed Beembette! He revealed zat he hahd a pen ahll ahlahng ahnd gahve hair ahn autahgrahph, weeth my phahto! He could've gahve me ahn autahgrahph ahll ahlahng! But no, he selfeeshly wahsted my time! So I keecked heem out of ze movie zeatair! Summair ees nearly ovair ahnd I hahven't hahd ahny fun or rahmahnce!" said Fifi angrily.
"But Fifi, you're ahcteeng eerrahtiona . . . ," said Pepé. "Dahn't you Fifi me! Eet seems every time I find a boy I like, sahmetheeng or sahmeone ahlways tears zem ahway frahm me! I'm through weeth lahve! Why bahthair to cahnteenue seekeeng fahr rahmahnce eef zere ees no boy who lahves me?! Eet's naht wahrth ze search ahnymahre!" yelled Fifi. She fell to the ground on her face and began to cry hysterically. There wasn't the usual, "le boo hoo hoo" or "le sob". She was crying realistically. Pepé Le Pew approached his student.
"But you shouldn't give up on rahmahnce," said Pepé. "Why shouldn't I? Nahbody lahves me due to my smell," lamented Fifi. "I've hahd my heart brahken ahs much ahs you hahve. But I've nevair given up on finding my dream geerl. Ahnd you shouldn't give up eithair," said Pepé. "But I'm naht like you," said Fifi, wiping away a tear. The purple skunkette continued to cry and Pepé hugged his student to try to comfort her. "I ahm here, Fifi. Shh. Shh," said Pepé. He took out a tissue and gave it to Fifi. Fifi blew into the tissue. "Tell you whaht, Fifi. Why dahn't I treat to lunch aht Weenie Burgair? Will zat cheair you up?" asked Pepé. "I guess so," said Fifi doubtfully.
Pepé and Fifi went to Weenie Burger to have lunch. The TV was on and everybody was watching a football game that was happening. Just then, the screen started to turn static.
(Insert "Team Rocket Hideout Theme" from Pokémon)
Almost immediately, the static disappeared, showing Meowth's face on the camera. "What happened?" asked Customer #1. "Where's the game?" asked Customer #2. "Hello. Is this thing on?" asked Meowth. A customer started to press the buttons on the TV, but Meowth's face didn't disappear. "It's on every station," said Customer #3.
"Listen up world and listen well! This is Meowth reporting live from Lilycove City, in the Hoenn Region! I along with my two parters, Jessie and James are the top members of the criminal organization, Team Rocket! We were the most feared criminals around! Nobody would dare stand up against us, until somebody decided to defy us and make fools out of us! These twerps right here!" said Meowth. He stepped aside to reveal Ash, Verity, Sorrel, May and May who were being tied up by Jessie and James. During his time in Hoenn, Ash wore a red & black hat with a green symbol on it, a blue hoodie, black & green gloves, a new pair of jeans and blue, white & black sneakers. Underneath his hoodie, he wore a black T-shirt similar with an orange horizontal stripe. The backpack he carried was green, with one pocket and a red Pokéball design on it.
May was a slim girl of average height. She had long brown hair with a single fringe at the center with three edges secured by a red and white kerchief, and blue eyes with long eyelashes. She wore a red short-sleeved shirt with a navy blue semi-circle on it, a yellow fanny pack, white gloves with navy fingertips, a white mini skirt over dark blue cycle shorts, and black ankle socks along with red shoes with black and yellow stripes. For a girl here age, she had a large bust. Max was a small, six-year old boy. He had short, oxford blue hair and brown eyes, much like his father, Norman. He wore a money-green-colored T-shirt with a white collar and button, charcoal-colored shorts and green and black and white slip-on shoes without socks. He also wore black, framed half-moon glasses.
"They had the nerve to mock us, trample over us and humiliate us because they opposed our vision for a new world! And because of them, all the other villains, including our fellow Team Rocket operatives and our own boss have been laughing at us! We were becoming the joke of the criminal underworld! But today, it all ends!" said Meowth. Then, somebody else stepped forward. It was Ash's Pikachu, but he had a mean looking expression on him. "For now we have the head twerp's Pikachu on our side! It took him a while, but he finally realized that we are its true masters! For the head twerp disobeyed Team Rocket's number one law; all powerful Pokémon are Team Rocket property! So that makes Pikachu legally ours!" said Meowth. Fifi gasped when heard what Meowth said. "What you're saying is a bunch of hooey!" said Ash. "Shut up! Can't you see we're in the middle of trying to do a speech!" said James. "We will repay the twerps' treachery for defying Team Rocket's vision of a better world by having Pikachu destroy them for abusing it! Once they're dead, we'll finally get the respect we deserve and the world will bow down to Team Rocket!" bragged Meowth. Giovanni, the Team Rocket leader was watching the public broadcast too, but he wasn't happy. Giovanni was a middle-aged man with brown hair and black eyes. He wore an orange business suit and had a green vest beneath his button shirt and a red tie. "Those idiots! What do they think they're doing?!" asked Giovanni.
Also watching the broadcast was Ash's mother, Delia and Professor Samuel Oak. Delia was a woman with brown hair & eyes. Her hair was in a ponytail. She wore a pink jacket, a yellow shirt, a blue skirt and cream-colored shoes. Professor Oak was was a man with gray hair and black eyes. He was in his fifties and he wore a white lab coat, a red shirt, a brown belt with a silver buckle, light brown pants and dark brown shoes. Delia and Professor Oak watched with worry about Ash's safety. "Oh Ash . . . ," said Delia sadly. "Those three have crossed the line," said Prof. Oak grimly.

Pepé Le Pew realized that he and Fifi La Fume couldn't sit around and do nothing. "Fifi, we hahve to go to Leelycahve Ceety," said Pepé. "Why?" asked Fifi. "We cahn't just seet ahround ahnd do nahtheeng while zose blahck hearted scoundrels ahre ahttempteeng to keell zose eennahcent keeds! Zey need to be sahved, especially Peekahchu! Now do you see why you cahn't give up on rahmahnce?! Peekahchu needs you mahre zan evair!" said Pepé. Fifi was silent for a few seconds before she finally spoke. "You're right. I shouldn't give up on rahmahnce! He couldn't hahve joined zem so easeely! He must've been brainwahshed or blahckmailed eento wahrkeeng fahr zem! I steell lahve Peekahchu so now ees ze time to show heem zat I truly lahve heem! He sahved my life wance, now eet's my turn to return ze fahvahr! I lahst heem wance! I'm naht going to lahse heem ahgain!" said Fifi. "Zat's ze speerit, Fifi!" said Pepé. Pepé and Fifi then began to run out of Weenie Burger. "But how do we get to Leelycahve Ceety een time?" asked Pepé.
At that moment, Fifi spotted the Roadrunner and realized what they needed to. Fifi and Pepé ran toward the speedy bird. "Roadrunnair! Roadrunnair!" cried Fifi. Roadrunner turned and saw the two skunks. "Deed you see ze news recently?" asked Fifi. The Roadrunner nodded. "We need you to get Pepé ahnd I to Leelycahve Ceety een ze Hoenn region. Run ahs fahst ahs you cahn. Fahstair zan you've evair gahne befahre. Cahn you do zat?" asked Fifi. The Roadrunner then had a look of determination, knowing what he must do. Fifi and Pepé climbed onto Roadrunner's back and put on some goggles. The Roadrunner began to run like he always did. But now, he began to run faster and faster. "Hahng on, Fifi!" cried Pepé. The two skunks screamed as the Roadrunner started to run really, really fast. So fast that he left a sonic boom in his wake. He ran past Wile E. Coyote, which caused all his fur to fly off. Wile E.'s head turned red in embarrassment and he put a barrel over his body. He then began to walk away to find some spare fur to glue on.
(Insert "A Brutal Pokémon Appears" from Pokémon)
Back at Lilycove City, Team Rocket were almost ready to execute Ash, Verity, Sorrel, May and Max. Jessie was holding a bag containing their stolen Pokémon. "Twerps, your days of making our lives miserable ends today. It's time for you to die," said Jessie. "And what better way to kill you than with Pikachu, which rightfully belongs to us, not you!" said Meowth. "Any last words before we kill you, like an apology or begging for mercy?" taunted James. "You'll get no pleasure from us, you slimy pieces of worm ridden filth!" said May. "You really think killing us is going to get the whole world to submit to your will?" asked Ash. "Yes," said Team Rocket. "Wrongo. Our deaths will just encourage more people to rebel against you. That's right. Rebel! They will continue to defy your so called vision for the world! And they will hunt you down like animals and won't stop until you three and the whole Team Rocket organization are dead! And you three lying in a puddle of your own blood!" sneered Ash. He then spat at Meowth's face.
"Enough! We've put up with your bleep until today!" said Jessie. "And now our conflicts ends with your deaths!" said James. "Pikachu, charge up your strongest electric attack. Make it so strong that they'll be reduced to smoking corpses once you're through with them!" said Meowth. Pikachu's cheeks began to spark as he prepared to charge a powerful Thunder attack. "Oh no!" cried May. "We're doomed!" said Max. "And there is nothing or nobody who can stop us!" said Meowth. "I can't watch!" cried Delia. She began to sob as she buried her head in Professor Oak's shoulder. The relatives of Ash's other friends also turned away from what apparently was going to happen.
But then, Jessie and James began to hear a faint noise in the distance. The two started to grow nervous. "Hey, what's that sound?" asked Jessie. "Meowth, can you have Pikachu hurry it up? I'm getting nervous with this sound I'm hearing," said James. "Shut up, James. Pikachu's attack isn't strong enough. It has to be strong enough to kill the twerps," said Meowth. The noise was getting louder and louder. But Meowth was so fixated on trying to kill Ash and his friends that he couldn't hear neither his partners' pleas to hurry it up or the noise in the distance. "The time has come for you to . . . ," said Meowth. BAM! Something hit Team Rocket and Pikachu before they could deliver the killing move. This sent them flying in different directions, screaming. In the process, Jessie dropped the bag with the Poké Balls. The four were sent crashing into different walls. Ash and his friends were surprised at what they just saw. "What was that?!" asked Verity. "It looks like somebody's come to our rescue," said Sorrel. Professor Oak saw what happened on TV. "Delia, your son's been saved at the last minute," said Prof. Oak. Delia looked and saw he was right. The relatives of Ash's friends were relieved too.

Team Rocket and Pikachu recovered from the blow that was dealt to them. But they didn't have the strength to get back up on their feet yet. Meowth didn't see that the coin on his forehead was starting to crack. "Who dares interrupt our moment of revenge and triumph?!" cried Meowth. The ones who hit them revealed themselves. It was the Roadrunner along with Pepé Le Pew and Fifi La Fume. Roadrunner panted from all that running since he never ran at that speed before. "We mahde eet," said Fifi. "Ahnd just een ze neeck of time, yes?" asked Pepé. "It's Fifi La Fume and that skunk that chased Misty back at Celadon City!" cried Ash. Suddenly, Roadrunner was teleported back to Acme Acres and to the safety of his nest. The one who did was a Cresselia. "You've fulfilled your purpose, Roadrunner. Now take a nice rest," said Cresselia.
"What are you doing here?" asked Ash. "I cahme to sahve you ahnd Peekahchu. Whaht's going on, Ahsh?" asked Fifi. "Pikachu got amnesia during a fight with Team Rocket and Meowth tricked him into thinking he's a member of Team Rocket. And because they got so drunk with power with Pikachu on their side, they believe the time has come to kill us," said Ash. "Zat's naht going to hahppen, naht on my wahtch!" said Fifi. Fifi then saw the video cameras that Team Rocket used to broadcast their attempted execution were still on. This gave the skunkette an idea. She ran up to them and had it show her face.
"Leesten up, wahrld! Ziss ees Fifi La Fume, student frahm Ahcme Looniverseety! You cahn't just cowair een fear while Team Rahcket ahre ahttempteeng to keell Ahsh ahnd hees friends!" said Fifi. Everybody who were watching the broadcast were surprised at how Fifi was starting to say a motivation speech. Among some of the people watching were Fifi's fellow students. "Is that Fifi?" asked Buster. "And there's Professor Pepé too!" said Plucky. "You must hahve courahge ahnd fight bahck ahgainst zem, like how my mentahr, Pepé ahnd I hahve gained ze courahge to cahme ahll ziss way to sahve zem! Dahn't let Team Rahcket get whaht zey wahnt! Fight bahck ahgainst zem! FIGHT!" said Fifi. "Get away from those cameras!" cried Meowth. He tricked to scratch Fifi, but she whacked Meowth aside with her tail.
Pepé managed to free Ash and his friends from their bindings. "Thanks," said Ash. "No prahblem. Oh ahnd I believe zese belahngs to you," said Pepé. He gave Ash and co. their Poké Balls. "Thanks, whoever you are," said May. "Ze nahme's Pepé Le Pew," said Pepé. Meowth gasped when he saw what was happening. "Jessie, James, Pikachu, get up! The twerps are free and they have they're Pokémon back!" said Meowth. "What?! No!" cried Jessie. "I told you that you should've just had Pikachu kill them right away! But you just had to try to have him charge up a super killer attack!" said James. "Okay, okay. I'm sorry. Let's just get them already!" cried Meowth. Ash and co. along withe Fifi and Pepé turned to face Team Rocket.
"Team Rocket, I'm taking my Pikachu back and you're not going to stop me!" said Ash. "He was never meant to be with you to begin with! He was always meant to be with us! It was his destiny!" said Meowth. "Bleep desteeny, you mahneepulahtive, furry cahnnahrd!" said Fifi. Meowth didn't understand that much French, but he knew what Connard meant in English. He growled due to Fifi's insult at him. "Eet's naht your cahll to decide who Peekahchu ees best weeth! Eet's Ahsh's!" said Fifi. "Oh yeah?! He and his twerpy friends couldn't bring themselves to hurt Pikachu just to try to get him back! And they can't do it now!" said Jessie. "Zey're naht ze ones who ahre going to fight Peekahchu!" said Fifi. "They're not?" asked James dumbly. "No! Peekahchu's oppahnent . . . ees moi!" said Fifi.
Everybody gasped when they heard this. They were silent for thirty seconds. Team Rocket began to laugh. "You really think you can fight him, skunk to Pokémon?!" asked James. "You're not a Pokémon!" said Meowth. "Eet doesn't mahttair! I ahm steell going to fight heem! Or ees Peekahchu a cowahrd?" asked Fifi. When Pikachu heard this, he got angry. Even Team Rocket were surprised at that Fifi would say something like that. "What did you call me?!" asked Pikachu. "You heard me, or ahre you deaf? I cahlled you a cowahrd!" said Fifi. "Nobody calls me a coward and lives!" said Pikachu. "Yeah! Nobody calls my friend a coward and lives! Pikachu, destroy her! We'll deal with the other twerps!" said Meowth. "Fifi, you're going to get yourself killed!" said Ash. "I wahn't bahck down!" said Fifi, strapping on some rubber gloves. "I cahme here fahr ze sahle purpahse of breengeeng my lightneeng bahlt of l'ahmour bahck to ze side of good. Ahnd I'll fight to do so, even eef I hahve to beat ze eveel out of heem weeth my bahre hahnds!" said Fifi.
"Enough chit chat and let's fight!" said James as he and Jessie took out Poké Balls. "You've gone too far, Team Rocket! And we're going to make sure you get your most merciless beatdown ever!" snarled Ash, Verity, Sorrel and May got out their Poké Balls. Ash threw his Poké Balls. "Grovyle, Swellow, Corphish, Torkoal, I choose you!" cried Ash. "Piplup, Lapras, Mudkip, Politoed, Corsola, we need you!" cried Verity. "Lucario, Forretress, Lombre, go!" cried Sorrel. "Combusken, Beautifly, Skitty, Bulbasaur, Swablu, it's time to battle!" cried May. All four Trainers threw the Poké Balls and their chosen Pokémon popped out.
Grovyle was the pre-evolved form of Sceptile. It was a light green, bipedal Pokémon with plant and reptilian features. Its head had a long snout with small nostrils and yellow eyes. A long, mane-like leaf extended from the back of its head. It had a red/orange stomach extending from its jaw to its rear. Grovyle had two arms, each with a small extension on the elbow-area and two claws. Sets of three leaves hung from them. Its tail consisted of two leaves and its legs were large with two claws as well. There was a green line on the middle of its stomach. Swellow was a large, dark blue bird Pokémon with a red breast and face. A crest of feathers swept back from the top of its head. A blue stripe separated the red markings on its head and chest, and it had a white underside. It had small, narrow eyes, a pointed, yellow beak, and red feet with black talons. Each foot had three forward-facing toes and one pointed backward. Two long, pointed feathers with red tips formed its tail, and were an indication of good health when standing up straight. Swellow's wings tapered to a sharp point.
Corphish was a red-shelled, crustacean Pokémon with a short tail similar to a lobster. Its eyes were saucer-like with small pupils, and it had three spikes on top of its head. It possessed four pairs of limbs in total: two large pincers used for gripping prey, and three pairs of legs used for walking. The upper segments of its legs, underside of its body and lower halves of its pincers were cream-colored. Torkoal was a rust-red tortoise whose black shell has seven coal vents.

Its ears were shaped like spirals and it had a small horn on its forehead. Having no legs, it instead had four flippers for easy mobility in the water. Lapras also had large, gray shells on their backs with "knobs" covering them. Mudkip was a small quadrupedal amphibious Pokémon that resembled mudskippers and axolotls. It was cyan blue in color, with a light blue neck, underbelly and tail. It had a large upright segmented fin atop its head, and large orange cheeks with three pointed whisker-like feelers on each. It had short legs and small paws with three toes on each, and a very large fin-like tail.
Politoed was a green, bipedal, frog-like Pokémon with yellow hands, belly, throat, and toes. It had a long, curled hair on top of its head and pink cheek spots that were smaller on the female than on the male. There was a green swirl on its belly. Its legs were well developed and it had bulbous toes and fingers. Corsola was composed of a pink and white, coral-like substance. It had a small face and a white underbelly. In addition to the coral outgrowths (also described as branches) situated all over the upper half of its body, Corsola also had a growth like a horn on its head, and that is considered its natural armament when facing underwater predators.
Lucario was a bipedal dog/wolf/jackal-like Pokémon, with a few kangaroo-like characteristics as well. Its forepaws were black and it had large pointed spikes. There was also a third spike protruding in the middle of its chest. Lucario's ears and muzzle were long amd it had a "mask" and red eyes. The "mask" also had an added upper stripe. It also had four black sensory bundles on the back of its head. Additionally, Lucario's torso was covered in yellow fur. Forretress was a large, spherical Pokémon with no visible limbs. The upper and lower halves of its body were capped by bumpy steel plates. The outer plates had zigzagging ridges that opened along its back and front, revealing its smooth, red inner shell. The inner shell was punctuated by four cylindrical spikes, each tapering to an open point. Between the spikes, the inner shell opened along a straight line to reveal Forretress's eyes, which are round with large pupils. Lombre was a bipedal Pokémon. It wore a leaf on its head that was shaped like a sombrero. Its face, arms, and part of its upper body were all green. It had a green crescent shaped marking on its face that goes to its legs. It had claws and a mustache that was colored light red.
Combusken was a bipedal bird-like Pokémon that resembled a young chicken or rooster. It was slightly humanoid in body shape. The top part of its body was covered in bright yellow feathers, while its underside was bright orange. It now had long feathery arms with three sharp white claws on its hands, and muscular, powerfully-built legs and feet with very sharp gray clawed talons with three digits and one in the back. It had a plume of three orange feathers atop its head, intense orange eyes, and a short orange beak. It also had a short orange pointed tail. Beautifly was a black-colored, butterfly-like Pokémon. It had the black slanted point extended on its head and a grayish face with a black proboscis. It had large, dark blue eyes, its face is light grayish in color. Beautifly's body also had grayish, stubby, fingerless limbs with a white, egg-shaped underside/abdomen. Its wings were very large and colorful with yellow, blue and red spots. The lower part of the wings had pointed horns and long extensions.
Skitty was a pink, cat-like Pokémon with a big pouch as a tail. It was known for having the trait of chasing its own tail. It had large, pink ears with three tips on each ear and small eyes. Bulbasaur resembled a small, squatting dinosaur that walked on four legs, but bore three claws on each of its feet and had no tail. It also had large, red eyes and very sharp teeth. Its skin was a light, turquoise color with dark, green spots. It had three claws on all four of its legs. Its most notable feature, however, was the aforementioned bulb on its back, which according to its entry in the Pokédex, was planted there at birth. Swablu was an avian Pokémon with a round, blue body. Since it had no discernible neck, its body appeared to be all head. There were two long feathers on top of its head, and it had a short, rounded white beak and beady, black eyes. Its wings were fluffy and white, resembling cotton or clouds. It had tiny, white feet and two pointed tail feathers.
"Wobbuffet, Seviper, Dustox, crush these wimps!" cried Jessie. "Cacnea, Chimeco, go!" cried James. The two thieves summoned their Pokémon as well. Seviper was a purplish Pokémon with golden "plates" on its body. Both of its fangs were red, but one side of its face was light purple while the other side was a darker purplish color. Its eyes were also red and they also have gold "plates" on them. Dustox was a moth-like Pokémon. Its body was purple while its wings were green with red circles in them. Its eyes were yellow with black dots in them. On its abdomen there were four little "arms" that were red.
Cacnea was a round, green Pokémon covered in green spikes. Its arms were different, however because of them being straight instead of round. Cacnea's mouth appeared to have a couple of black spots on it, forming its mouth. It had eyes deep into its body with carved holes showing black inside of Cacnea. It also appeared to be wearing a yellow crown on top of its head. Cacnea also has giant spikes underneath it, forming its feet that functioned like footstools. Chimeco was a light blue & red Pokémon with a gold, bell like object on the top of its head. It's body was a circle, but it has a huge tail that resembled a seal and on the bottom of the tail there was some red. By its face, there was two upside-down "V" shaped red marks. It had three very small light blue arms.
The first thing Cacnea did was jump at James wanting a hug from him. But due to Cacnea being a cactus Pokémon, James was poked by its spikes. He yelped in pain. "Cacnea, we got a big battle to win! And we're not going to win it with hugs!" cried James. Cacnea then rejoined its comrades on the battlefield.
(Insert "Mars")
Fifi La Fume prepared to fight Pikachu, knowing it was the only way to save her crush. "I dahn't wahnt to hurt you, Peekahchu. But eet ees ze only way to sahve you," said Fifi. "I don't need saving! I know who I belong to. And it's not with that Ash kid!" said Pikachu. He then fired a Thunderbolt attack. It hit Fifi, but she wasn't affected since she was wearing rubber gloves. "Bleep your rubber gloves! If you weren't wearing them, I'd crush you instantly!" said Pikachu. He decided to execute a Quick Attack instead. But Fifi managed to dodge it by executing a dodge roll. The skunkette struck back by whacking him with her mallet. Pikachu recovered from that blow and whacked Fifi with an Iron Tail attack. Fifi was sent crashing to the ground. But luckily, she recovered from the blow and was still able to fight. In retaliation, Fifi slapped Pikachu in the face with her own tail rapidly. "Cahme on, Peekahchu! You hahve to remembair who you ahre!" yelled Fifi.
"Seviper, Poison Tail! Dustox, Psybeam!" said Jessie. "Cacnea, Pin Missile!" said James. Seviper's tail started to glow purple and it charged at Ash & co.'s Pokémon. Dustox fired a rainbow colored beam from its eyes. Cacnea began to fire pin missiles from its hands. But Ash & co.'s Pokémon dodged the attacks. "Everybody, attack!" cried Ash & co. All of Ash & co.'s Pokémon fired their strongest attacks, which hit Team Rocket's Pokémon. This resulted in an explosion. When the smoke cleared, all of Team Rocket's Pokémon were defeated. Team Rocket gasped when they saw this. "Oh no!" cried Team Rocket. "This is what happens when you rely on trying to steal other Pokémon instead of training your own Pokémon," said Verity.
Just then, Meowth saw Fifi slapping Pikachu was her tail. By now, Pikachu's face was turning red. "Cahme on! Remembair!" cried Fifi. "Hold on, Pikachu! I'll save you!" cried Meowth. He ran toward Fifi and Pikachu. However, Meowth's running was so loud that Fifi heard him. "Stay out of ziss! Ziss ees between me ahnd Peekahchu!" cried Fifi as she fired a stink bullet at Meowth. The stink bullet hit Meowth and exploded into skunk fumes. Meowth coughed as he was engulfed in the skunk fumes. The Normal-type Pokémon then felt something wet dripping on his forehead. He looked up and gasped in horror. Fifi's odor was powerful enough to actually melt Meowth's gold coin. "No! Not my charm! Not my precious charm!" cried Meowth. Fifi then whacked Meowth with her mallet, sending him crashing into Jessie and James. The three thieves then toppled over. Fifi then resumed her fight against Pikachu.
Team Rocket growled angrily. "We will not let you twerps beat us again! This is our day of victory! And this will ensure it!" said Meowth. He took out a remote and pressed a button. Everybody heard some stomping. "What's going on?" asked May. Everybody then saw that the stomping was caused by a giant robot built in the image of a Meowth wearing knight's armor. It was armed with a sword and shield. Ash and his friends gasped when they saw how huge the robot was. Team Rocket then got into the cockpit of the giant robot. "Our Robo Meowth Knight will crush you twerps under its mighty feet!" sneered Meowth. The robot raised its foot to try to stomp on Ash & co. "Look out!" cried Ash & co. They dodged its giant foot just in time. "Hold still, will you?!" asked Jessie.
Suddenly, and without warning, several attacks hit the Robo Meowth Knight. "What the?!" asked James. They saw who fired the attacks. They could see a bunch of Trainers whom Ash and co. befriended over the years were riding on some Pokémon. First was Brendan, the son of Professor Birch. The Pokémon he had out was his Swampert. Accompanying him was Wally, a Trainer from Hoenn. The Pokémon he had out was his Gallade. The Kanto Elite Four were present too. First there was Lorelei, the Ice-type member who had her Lapras out right now. The second member was Bruno, an elite Fighting-type Trainer. He had his unusually large Steelix at his side. Agatha, the ghost-type member of the Kanto Elite Four had her Gengar out. And finally, the leader of the Kanto Elite Four, Lance the Dragon Master was riding on top of his Dragonite.
"Have no fear! We're here to help!" said Lance. "Alright! It's Brendan, Wally and the Kanto Elite Four!" said Ash. "Piplup!" said Verity's Piplup. "We got Fifi's message to take a stand and fight back against Team Rocket," said Brendan. "But some of us we're already on our way even before Fifi gave others motivation," said Lorelei. The calvary's Pokémon started to fire more attacks at the Robo Meowth Knight. But those six weren't the only heroes that came to the rescue. Next, the various Gym Leaders across Kanto, the Orange Islands, Johto and Hoenn came to the rescue too. But since Erika was fired years ago, a new Gym Leader took her place. This new Gym Leader had green hair & pink eyes. She wore a green and yellow casual dress as well as red lipstick and green eyeshadow. She was riding on the back of her Tropius. "Are you the new Celadon City Gym Leader?" asked Ash. "Yes. My name is Grace. I've fixed the reputation of Celadon Gym ever since you got Erika fired," said the woman. "That's good," said Ash.
Other people that came to the rescue were Ash's former rival; Gary Oak, Jimmy and Marina from the Johto Region and the Hoenn Elite Four. A Trainer named Vito Winstrate was helping too, with his Alakazam and Swellow. "Who are you supposed to be?" asked Meowth. "My name is Vito Winstrate. I was the one who sent blasting off when you tried to steal Pikachu during Ash & friends visit to my family," said Vito. Meowth growled angrily. "We'll destroy you too along with the rest of our enemies today!" yelled Meowth. The Robo Meowth Knight tried to slice at Vito, but his Alakazam used Teleport to teleport Vito and itself out of danger. "Over here," said Vito. The Robo Meowth Knight tried to strike again, but Alakazam used Teleport again. "Ha ha! Missed us!" said Vito.
Suddenly, another Steelix burst out of the ground and ripped the shield out of the Robo Meowth Knight's hand. "Hey!" cried Meowth. The Steelix ripped the shield to shreds with its jaws. The one riding the Steelix was none other than Brock. He was wearing a different set of clothes than the ones he wore in Kanto. He now wore a brown jacket with an orange collar. Under it, he wore a green undershirt, but he no longer wore a belt. His shoes were a dark blue, and his new backpack is blue, but has no bedroll. "Brock? You're here too?" asked Ash. "Look, I know that you're still angry at me for what happened during the Indigo League and that I'm the last person you want to see. You had the right to ditch me and Misty because of that. But please, let this be the first step in redeeming myself in your eyes," said Brock. "Okay. You can start by trashing that robot," said Ash. "That is my intention!" said Brock, grinning. The Robo Meowth Knight swung its sword at the attacking Pokémon, but they kept doing the attacks. "Hold still!" yelled Jessie.
Meowth then had the Robo Meowth Knight point its sword at Ash. "Prepare to be skewered!" yelled Meowth. But before the robot could attack Ash, a Hydro Pump attack hit the robot. Everybody turned and saw who the attacker was. It was a Gyarados belonging to a Team Aqua Grunt who wore blue combat armor. Gyarados was a dragon-like Pokémon that was serpentine in shape and covered in blue and yellow scales. It had white fins on top of its body and it had a tan underbelly. It had fins on the side of its face and a large, blue crest on its forehead. Like Magikarp, it had "whiskers".
"Stay away from Ash! He's my prey!" snarled the armored T.A. Grunt. "Oh great. It's that armored Team Aqua Grunt who was trying to kill me back at the Weather Institute. He must really want to kill me," said Ash. He turned to the others. "Guys. Can you hold Team Rocket off? As long as that guy's trying to kill me, I can't fight Team Rocket without his interference," said Ash. "Okay," said the others. Ash and his Sceptile turned to fight the Team Aqua Grunt and his Gyarados. "Gyarados, Flamethrower!" said the Armored T.A. Grunt. Gyarados fired hot flames from his mouth, which Grovyle dodged. "Grovyle, Bullet Seed!" said Ash. Grovyle fired yellow energy seeds at Gyarados, which were a direct hit.

Fifi and Pikachu continued to fight hard. By this time, both were covered in bruises and cuts. "Peekahchu, please! Cahme bahck to me! I lahve you!" cried Fifi, with tears in her eyes. Pikachu fired a Thunderbolt attack in response. But once again, Fifi's rubber gloves gave her protection. Fifi then pulled out a remote and pressed it. This caused an anvil to fall, right on his tail! Pikachu screamed in pain as he felt the anvil crush his tail. Pikachu struggled to pull his tail out, but the anvil was too heavy. "Zere's only one way I know zat may breeng Peekahchu's memahries bahck. Eet's a lahng shaht, but I've gaht to try!" cried Fifi. Fifi ran up to Pikachu and grabbed him by the cheeks. She then began to force a kiss on Pikachu's lips. Pikachu then began to let off another electric attack to shock Fifi. But Fifi wouldn't let go.
Everybody's Pokémon continued to fire their attacks at the Robo Meowth Knight. As the fight progressed, its armor was starting to come off. Its sword was also melted by Lance's Dragonite, using Flamethrower. Then, the Pokémon fired their strongest attacks, which resulted in a massive explosion. Team Rocket yelped as it shook their robot. The robot then crashed to the ground and fell on its face. "We got 'em!" said Brock. "In your faces, Team Rocket!" yelled Gary.
But then, the heroes began to hear Team Rocket laughing. It was low at first, but it got louder and more insane. "Our robot's only begun to fight! The armor was merely a restraint! So now you fools have spelled your doom! For now, you'll face our robot's true form and true power!" taunted Meowth. The robot then got back up and when the smoke cleared, everybody could see its true form. It was a gold Meowth robot with sharp claws. In addition, it had missile launchers on its shoulders. "You'll die for your evil deeds against Team Rocket!" said Jessie. The Gold Meowth Robot fired its missiles at the heroes. The heroes barely dodged them. "Evil?! How dare you call us evil! We work for the forces of good, not evil!" yelled May. "Anyone who apposes Team Rocket is bad regardless!" snarled Meowth. The Gold Meowth Robot then fired a deadly laser from its forehead coin. The laser hit the ground near the heroes, sending some of them crashing to the ground.
Fifi continued to force her kiss on Pikachu's lips. As Fifi kissed Pikachu, his real memories were actually starting to return. They weren't gone forever. They were just locked away due to the amnesia. And Fifi's kiss was unlocking them one by one. At one point, Pikachu stopped giving off his electricity and Fifi broke the kiss. "Ugh. My head," said Pikachu. "Peekahchu, ahre you . . . ?" asked Fifi. Pikachu then saw Fifi. "Fifi? Fifi La Fume?" asked Pikachu. "You remembair!" cried Fifi. She then hugged Pikachu. "I wahs so wahrried ahbout you," said Fifi, with tears in her eyes. "What's happened?" asked Pikachu. "You gaht ahmnesia ahnd Meowth mahneepulahted you eento sinkeeng you're a membair of Team Rahcket. Whaht's wahrse, zey tried to hahve you keell your Trainair, Ahsh ahnd hees friends een publeec een ordair to get ze wahrld to submeet to zem. But my mentahr, Pepé Le Pew ahnd I ahlahng weeth ze Roadrunnair stahpped zem just een time. Ahlso, Ahsh's vahrious friends ahrrived to help heem fight a giant rahbot zey summahned. I restahred your memahries by keesseeng you," said Fifi. "Oh no! What have I done?! Where's Ash?" asked Pikachu. "Frahm whaht I lahst sahw, he's fighteeng ziss Team Ahqua grunt who seems to hahve a grudge ahgainst heem," said Fifi. "Then we have to help him before we stop Team Rocket," said Pikachu. After Fifi removed the anvil off of Pikachu's tail, the two ran to help Ash. Then, it started to rain and thunder.
But when they arrived to where Ash was, Ash had already made the armored Team Aqua Grunt retreat. He was covered in cuts and bruises. "Ash! Ash!" cried Pikachu. Ash heard Pikachu's voice and saw him along with Fifi coming toward him. "Pikachu?" asked Ash. "I remember who I am, thanks to Fifi. You're my Trainer, Ash, not Team Rocket," said Pikachu. "You got your memory back at a good time. Team Rocket have summoned a giant robot and its revealed its true power. They want to kill everybody who's here! They're out of control!" said Ash. "Not if I have anything to say about it!" said Pikachu. Ash, Pikachu and Fifi ran to help their friends.
The Golden Meowth Robot fired another forehead blast, which knocked down Ash's allies. "Misery, misery, misery," said Jessie. "That's what you've chosen," said James. "We offered you a chance to surrender . . . and you spat in our faces," said Meowth. The robot fired yet another blast, which knocked the heroes down again. They along with their Pokémon struggled to get back. "We can't let them beat us," groaned May. "The world's counting on us," said Gary. "You rebelled against Team Rocket for the last time," said James. "Had you all not been so selfish, the head twerp's death would have been quick and painless," said Jessie. "Now that you've really bleeped us off, we're going to finish all of you . . . nice and slowly. From now on, death will be the fate of everybody who rebel against the great Team Rocket!" said Meowth. Meowth started to have the Golden Meowth Robot charge yet another forehead coin blast.
But before it could fire it, Ash's Pikachu attacked. "PIKACHUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!" screamed Pikachu as it fired a powerful Thunder attack. The electrical attack hit the Golden Meowth Robot, zapping it. Team Rocket screamed as they were getting electrocuted by the attack. After the zapping was done, the robot started to spark and overload. "What's going on?!" asked Meowth. Team Rocket then spotted Pikachu with Ash and Fifi. "Pikachu, what are you doing?!" asked Jessie. "I know who I am! And I'm not a member of Team Rocket! I am Ash Ketchum's Pokémon!" said Pikachu. "Eet looks like seence you were cahnfident zat Peekahchu will be yours fahrevair, you deedn't even bahthair to mahke your rahbot Peeka proof," said Fifi. James glared at Meowth. "I told you we should've made the robot Pika proof!" cried James. The golden Meowth Robot fell to the ground and disappeared in a fiery explosion. Everybody shielded themselves from the brightness of the explosion.
When the smoke subsided, the robot had been reduced to a burning pile of scrap metal. Team Rocket were sticking out of the pile, pinned by the heavy pieces.
(Insert "Raid!" from Pokémon)
Suddenly, Pikachu grabbed Meowth and pulled him out of the debris. "I'm not done with you, you fleabag!" yelled Pikachu angrily. "Please, have mercy!" cried Meowth. "Mercy?! Why should I show mercy after you tricked me into thinking I work for you and almost had me kill my friends?! You don't deserve mercy!" yelled Pikachu. Pikachu then gave Meowth a powerful zapping, causing Meowth to scream in agony. He then threw the thieving cat onto the ground. Pikachu then began to stomp on Meowth. Jessie and James could only watch helplessly as the very angry Pikachu beat up their partner. What Pikachu did next was brutal. The electric mouse then broke Meowth's arms and legs with his bare hands. Meowth continued to scream in pain. Pikachu then grabbed a broken cord from the robot and tied it around Meowth's neck. He pulled it tight in order to choke Meowth. Meowth gasped for air as Pikachu strangled him with the cord. Pikachu then ripped off what remained of Meowth's forehead coin. Meowth screamed as he felt the intense pain. Pikachu then grabbed a nearby crowbar. "And now for the final touch!" said Pikachu. He began to hit Meowth with the crowbar with all his fury. Meowth screamed and yelped with each hit Pikachu delivered on him. Pikachu then delivered a powerful strike with the crowbar and everybody heard a loud crack. Meowth let out his most agonized scream, ever. For Pikachu had broken Meowth's jaw with that strong hit.
(End Music)
Pikachu lifted up the crowbar, ready to strike Meowth again. But suddenly, Fifi ran up to Pikachu and grabbed at Pikachu's arm. "Peekahchu! Please stahp! Zat's enough!" cried Fifi. Pikachu's look of anger disappeared. "You've ahlready wahn. Zere's no need to senselessly beat heem up even mahre," said Fifi. Pikachu looked at Meowth. The Scratch Cat Pokémon was all bruised and battered. He let out a weak groan due to the pain inflicted by Pikachu. Pikachu realized what he was doing and he dropped the crowbar. "What am I doing? I'm sorry, Fifi. I just lost control of my emotions after hearing what they tried to make me do," said Pikachu. "At least you stopped before you actually did kill someone," said Ash.
Very soon, paramedics as well as the police arrived. Everybody who was hurt were tended to. But it was Jessie, James and Meowth who had the worst of it, especially Meowth. A lot of Jessie's hair was burned off and her face had some nasty scarring. Her legs were crushed by the wreckage of their robot and were put in casts. James' right arm was broken and was put in a cast. He also had a black eye and lost some of his teeth. Meowth was in a full body cast and his jaws were wired shut. Whenever he talked, his voice sounded weird.
"How can Pikachu have gotten his memory back?! It was lost forever!" cried Meowth. "Ahmnesia ees nevair fahrevair. Sahme cahses, eet may tahke lahngair fahr sahmeone to regain zeir memahries. I just merely sped eet up," said Fifi. "How?!" asked Meowth. "I keessed hees memahries ahwahke. Ze powair of lahve will ahlways triumph ovair hahte," said Fifi. "That doesn't make any sense!" cried Meowth. "Eet doesn't mahke sense to you because you're nahtheeng but blahck hearted scoundrels," said Fifi. The paramedics and the police started to put Team Rocket in a medical police truck. "No, no! Don't arrest us! Arrest the twerps! They're the real villains!" cried Jessie. "That Pikachu is ours! They stole it from us!" cried James. "Nice try. We know that you're the real villains due to your evil gloating when you attempted to kill these kids," said Jenny. "Pikachu is mine and mine alone, Team Rocket!" said Ash. "Pika!" said Pikachu in agreement. Officer Jenny closed the doors to the medical police truck and it began to drive off. "All their past defeats must be affecting them badly," said Ash. "You may be right. When we were fighting them, they said that we'd pay for our 'evil' deeds against Team Rocket," said May. "It's sad, really," said Max unsympathetically.
Ash then began to hug Pikachu. "Oh, Pikachu. I thought we nearly lost you to evil forever," said Ash. "I'm sorry I nearly killed you and your friends," said Pikachu. "It's all right. It wasn't your fault. You were manipulated. The important thing is that you got your memory back and Team Rocket are now going to pay for their crimes," said Ash. He put Pikachu down. "Thanks to you, Ash and your friends, our city was saved," said a civilian. "No. Fifi La Fume along with her mentor, Pepé Le Pew are the real heroes today. They were the ones who stopped Team Rocket from delivering the killing blow of their attempted public execution. It was Fifi who motivated everybody to rally up and fight back against Team Rocket. And as she said, it was she who restored Pikachu's memories, thanks to her love for him. She's the one who deserves the credit," said Ash.
Some of the people began to clap. More and more people began to clap for the skunkette. "Three cheers fahr my prahtégé, Fifi La fume!" said Pepé. "Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray!" cried everybody. All the people began to clap and cheer for Fifi. Fifi La Fume was touched by this. She wiped a tear from her eye. "Merci. Merci, everybody," said Fifi. Fifi's fellow Tiny Toons, who saw the whole battle on TV were cheering too. "Wait to go, Fifi!" cried Babs. "Like, totally!" cried Shirley. "That's our skunkette!" said Buster.
At that moment, a Pokémon League Inspector approached Brock. "Brock Slate. What is the big idea of using Pokémon in battle when your Trainer license suspension isn't up yet?" asked the Inspector. Brock's eyes widened when he her voice. "Please listen. I had to do it," said Brock. "Okay. I'm listening," said the Inspector. "During my time of my Trainer license being suspended, I've finally realized what I tried to do to Ash was very wrong. When I saw how Team Rocket were going to publicly slaughter him and his friends like animals, I couldn't just stand there and do nothing. I don't care if you take away my Trainer license and my Pokémon permanently. I just had to redeem myself in Ash's eyes. I know I was disobeying the rules. But doing the right thing is most of the time more important than obeying rules," said Brock. Brock waited for a response from the Pokémon League Inspector.
"Well, Brock. Judging by what you're saying, it seems you are indeed telling the truth. So therefore . . . I won't punish you for going against your suspension. And since you saved the city from a great threat, I'm ending your Trainer license suspension early so that you can further make amends with Ash," said Inspector. "Thank you, Ms. Inspector. I'd knew you weren't a complete stickler of the rules," said Brock. "But . . . you were only lucky that time. Just keep that in mind," said the Inspector. "Yes, Ms. Inspector," said Brock.
"Aah. So you're zat Peekahchu who sahved my prahtégé frahm Elmyra years ahgo. Eet's good to finahlly meet you aht lahst," said Pepé."Nice to meet you too," said Pikachu, shaking Pepé's hand. "My student has been sinkeeng ahbout you everyday evair seence zat deesplay of brahvery. She even mahde a mahgneeficent painteeng of when you zahpped zat diable," said Pepe. Fifi La Fume turned to Pikachu. "Peekahchu?" asked Fifi. "Yes?" asked Pikachu. "Cahn we gaht out a dahte, you ahnd I, s'il vous plaît?" asked Ffii. "That means please in French," said Verity. Fifi then gave Pikachu the puppy dog eyes, complete with tears. Pikachu turned to Pepé. "Peekahchu, you should tahke hair out. She hahsn't hahd a good summair so fahr. She wahs hahpeeng to get ze autahgrahph of ze skunk movie stahr, Jahhnny Pew. But she found out zat he wahs nahtheeng mahre zan selfeesh wahste of a skunk.

So, you hahve to go on ziss dahte so zat she cahn finahlly hahve ze summair rahmahnce she wahs denied off," said Pepé.
Pikachu sighed in defeat. "Oh, alright. It's the least I can do to repay her for saving me," said Pikachu. "Le squee!" cried Fifi happily. She then wrapped her arms as well as her tail around Pikachu and hugged him. She also had tears of joy in her eyes. "Merci, merci, merci, my leettle spahrk plug! I zought ziss day would nevair cahme! Le hahppy sahb!" cried Fifi. Once again, Fifi showered Pikachu's face with lovely kisses, and smearing pink kiss marks on him too.. "Aaaaaaaawwwwwww," said everybody at the sight of the romantic scene. After kissing Pikachu, Fifi left to get ready.
There you have it folks. The flashback of this fanfiction's version of "A Scare to Remember", which takes place during "How I Spent My Vacation". Now you know why Meowth really hates Fifi since she took away their chance to destroy their enemies. Did you find the quotes I borrowed from the Tobey Maguire Spider-Man movie? There will be an uncut version of this flashback as part of my "Fifi's New Tiny Toon Adventures" fanfic cause you're not supposed to know the identity of that Team Aqua grunt yet. Next chapter will explain why Ash and Brock had a falling out. But the main event of the next chapter will be the flashback of Fifi and Pikachu's first date.
