Subieko; Well, the Boss's only her adoptive father. Her real dad is Professor Oak. I like Giovanni way too much to let some Sue-bint screw with him like that. Yah, I'm a TR fan. Go Team Rocket! *runs in circles waving Team Rocket flag*

Only one review? *is greatly saddened*

Led by Vulpix and dragging a few multi-coloured bottles behind them, the 'elite commandos' ghosted up the stairs. Except for the liquid sloshing around in the bottles, and the occasional squeak when someone fell down the stairs, and all the noise they were making, they were as silent as a tomb.

Finally the small group made it into Celandine's room. The Sue was sprawled across the bed with her mouth wide open and snoring. Togepi sniggered. Vulpix shot him a stern look and edged over to the edge of the bed. Taking care not to disturb the sleeping monster, Togepi scrambled onto Vulpix's head, onto the horrible purple duvet (dotted with pink hearts) and balanced precariously on Celandine's chest. Once there, he waved his arms around vaguely and started to sing.

Describing Togepi's voice as being like a dying cow doing a duet with a rusty gate would have been terribly insulting, to both cow and gate. Nevertheless, it seemed to be doing it's job. Celandine's snores had definitely gotten deeper and louder.

Vulpix dragged the small table and basin out from under the bed, where Bulbasaur had put it earlier, and stood aside to let Squirtle fill it with water. Once there was water slopping over the sides, Charizard roasted it. Steam started rising from the bowl.

And with a flourish, Squirtle grabbed a bottle labelled 'Cyan', smirked wickedly, and tipped it over Celandine's head.

"Thanks for the lift, Team Rocket!" Pikachu shouted, waving cheerfully. Now there's a sentence I never thought I'd say, he thought, ambling through the door of the Pokemon centre and glancing around. Togepi, Vulpix, Charizard, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle seemed to be missing. Probably carrying out 'Operation Rainbow'.

Psyduck was sitting in a corner, muttering to himself. Pikachu ignored him, hurrying over to Onix. "Hey, Onix. Where did the Sue go?" he inquired.

Onix turned to look at him, then turned away again. A dreadful suspicion clutched at Pikachu's heart. "So, Onix." he said casually. "What do you think of, say, Celandine?"

Onix's eyes became even more glassy. "Her eyebrows are like twin moon crescents." he said, before going back to staring at the ceiling.

Pikachu raised an eyebrow. Uh-huh. Twin moon crescents. So Onix was gone. Well, it did make a little bit of sense. Rock Pokemon. Rocks in the head, that's like a universal...Hang on. Rock Pokemon. On a hunch, he headed over to Geodude.

"Hello, Geodude. What do you think about Celandine?"

Geodude didn't even look at the electric Pokemon, just gazed out of the window, drooling slightly. "Stars...pretty...sparkly..."

Pikachu blinked at him, then hurried away and up the stairs to find the missing five. So Psyduck was down, Onix was down, and Geodude was either down or on something illegal.

The electric mouse got into Celandine's room and stood gaping. The whole of Celandine's lovely, silvery hair had been dyed cyan, orange, green, purply- pink, and fluorescent yellow. In a checked pattern.

Pikachu grinned, took a running jump onto the bed, and grabbed a bottle marked Lime Green from Charizard.

"AIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!"

The scream echoed through the Pokemon Center and quite possibly the whole of Fuchsia City. Looking more like some kind of avenging troll than an exquisitely beautiful Mary-Sue, Celandine stamped down the stairs red with fury. Her hair looked as if a drunken modern artist had thrown water- balloons full of paint at her.

Pikachu stuffed a paw in his mouth to stifle the hysterical laughter. Vulpix was rolling on the floor giggling madly.

"Who. Did. This." Celandine hissed.

"I think you look like a vision of perfect beauty, my darling." Brock said woodenly, gazing into space. The Sue waved him off impatiently, then her stare settled on Pikachu and his elite commandos. With a smirk that said quite clearly, I'm plotting something and you don't know what it is, she grabbed Bulbasaur and lifted him up over her head. "This is a lovely Bulbasaur, Ash." she said with a sweet smile.

"Yeah, he's great." Ash said absently.

"He?" Celandine said in mock surprise. "But Ash, this Bulbasaur is a girl!"

Bulbasaur let out a shriek which altered pitch dramatically halfway through.

"AAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiiiiiiiiiiiiieeeeeeeeeeee!"
