[Enter 'Pokemon Central' TV Host, Ash Ketchum, and Pikachu]

HOST: We are here live on Pokemon Central, where you'll meet some of the best Pokemon trainers in the world! [Whispers to crowd] Too bad we could only find him [Points to Ash]

PIKACHU: [Slightly angry] Pika...

HOST: Weeeeell, here we are with Ash Ketchum and his Pikachu... Ash, you're facing the wrong way...

ASH: [Turns around and faces the camera, looking embarrassed. Waves at the camera.] Umm, hi!

HOST: Ash, on the issue of your last name, who in Pewter City has such a weird name as 'Ketchum'?

[Ash continues to stare at the camera while answering]

ASH: Er... I do.

HOST: I see. Interesting. Well, let's bring out Misty!

[Enter Misty holding Togepi. Walks out waving energetically]

HOST: Now, I'm curious, Misty, remember in the episode on the 'Water Blast' video where you met those squirtles and blastoise, you know, the jigglypuff stuck in blastoise's water gun?

[Ash continues to stare at the camera]

[Misty nods]

HOST: Remember where you said 'It makes me feel like a cartoon character' when jigglypuff drew on your faces with its marker, what ever gave you the idea you were a cartoon character?

MISTY: I donno, just with the marker, it felt I like I was. Not like we are, or anything.

[Crowd sniggers]

HOST: I forget, why DO you follow Ash around?

[Misty glares at Ash, holding togepi tightly, and then whines]

MISTY: 'Cause he broke my bike!

[Ash finally looks away from the camera and crosses his arms]

ASH: Wasn't MY fault Pikachu was hurt!

MISTY: Was too!

[Ash stands up]

ASH: Was not!

PIKACHU: [Sadly] Pika...

HOST: Whoa, you two. This isn't Jerry Springer! Well, let's bring out Brock!

[Sailor Moon walks out on stage]

SAILOR MOON: [Sweat drop] Whoops!

LUNA: [From offstage] Serena, I told you this wasn't the right show.

[Sailor Moon tries to exit without being noticed. All eyes are on her]

HOST: Ooookay... That was weird.

[A guy with a clipboard runs on stage and whispers something to the host]

HOST: Oh... yes... um... Brock can't come today. He seems to have had a little accident with Onix... Onix kind of sat down where Brock seems to been have standing... [Pulls his collar]

[Ash goes back to staring at the camera]

HOST: Let's bring out Gary.

[Gary comes out with a smug look on his face, and three beautiful girls following him. Then looks around, confused]

GARY: Hey... Isn't this the Gary Show? Don't you think I ought to have my own show by now??

[The girls nod in agreement]

HOST: Yeah... whatever you say. Well, Gary-

GARY: Who invited these LOSERS? [Points at Ash and Misty] Are you still trying to train that stupid Charizard of yours?

PIKACHU: Pika... chu

ASH: [Stops staring at the camera] No... I mean, yes...

GARY: [Laughs as he walks offstage, the girls laughing with him]

HOST: Right... Let's bring out Team Rocket now!

[Enter Jesse, James and Meowth.]

[A guy walks across stage with a sign that says 'BOO']

[The crowd boos]

JESSE: To protect the world from devastation!

JAMES: To unite all peoples wi--

HOST: We know, we know.

[Ash starts staring at the camera]

MEOWTH: We didn't even get to my part! And my part was the best!

JESSE: No it wasn't! 'Meowth, that's right!'? What an idiotic part... Maybe we should even cut you out of it!

JAMES: Just as long as I get to say 'Meowth, that's right'.

JESSE: [Pushes James] No! You are not getting that part! I get to say it. It would be my turn, anyway, since you say your name last!

JAMES: [Pushes Jesse back, to the crowds surprise]

ASH: [Stops staring at the camera, noticing what's happening] Hey! Why's Team Rocket here? Look! [Points at Meowth] A meowth! I gotta catch it!

MISTY: Ash Ketchum! That's not just any meowth! You don't want to catch that one! It's Team Rocket's meowth! Duh!

ASH: [Looks at Misty angrily] I knew that!

MISTY: Sure ya did!

ASH: I did!

JESSE: [Shoves James hard]

MISTY: Yeah, right!

ASH: [Face turns red]

TOGEPI: [Jumps off Misty's lap and walks over to Pikachu]

MISTY: Hey, Togepi! Come back here! [Runs after togepi, but knocks into Jesse and James into a huge pile on the floor]

ASH: Ha, ha!

[Jesse pulls Ash down on the floor with them]

[Pikachu and Togepi shake their heads sadly and walk off stage]

[Meowth sits down]

HOST: That's our show for today! Keep watching, and maybe someday we'll have a real Pokemon trainer! Ta-ta for now!
