Pokemon: Rising
"Onward to the Rentou League"
"Ash! Ash! Wake up; today you start your journey." Ash's mom Delia said as she was trying to wake up Ash but was unsuccessful."
"Well if I can't wake you up then…, Mr. Mime could you come here please?"
In a few seconds a pokemon that was white and pink in some areas with blue hair and had two red circles one on each cheek came in. Mr. Mime had large hands and a warm smile on its face.
"Mr. Mime!" the pokemon said.
"Mime-Me if you could wake Ash up I'll bake you a special cake." She said in a sing-song voice.
"Mime." The pokemon said happily.
So Mr. Mime went over to Ash's bed to face with a duster in its hand. Mr. Mime then began swaying the tips of the duster's feathers across Ash's face and Ash responded by making a funny face and Mr. Mime laugh. It was having fun that Mr. Mime overdid it causing Ash to wake up with Mr. Mime close up to his face.
"Ahhh!" Ash yelled causing Pikachu to wake up.
"Pikachu?" the electric mouse said in a tired voice while opening one eye.
An hour later in the kitchen
Pikachu was on the floor eating pokemon food, ash at the table eating his breakfast but was still tired, his mother cleaning up some dishes, and Mr. Mime dusting in the living room. Ash closed his eyes while rested his chin on his hand. When Mr. Mime saw this it uses the duster on him again.
"Ahh!" Mr. Mime will you stop. I'm not sleeping!" Ash said but Mr. Mime was too occupied.
"chuu." Pikachu sighed with a sweat-drop.
After the incident Ash packed up for his journey toward the new region.
"Ash did you pack…"
"Yes mom I did." Ash said before she could finish what she said, soon after saying goodbye and another incident with the duster Ash and Pikachu were on their way. As they were at the end of the town Ash heard a voice behind tem and turned around to find Tracy.
"Tracy!" Ash exclaimed as he saw the exhausted boy.
"Hey Ash. Professor Oak wanted me to give you something." Tracy said who was still exhausted. He reaches into his pocket and took out an object that was circular at one end and a rectangle shaped shape at the other. It was red all over with a black line down the middle and a clear small circle in the middle of the big on and buttons with letters on the rectangle shape.
"What is it?" Ash asked as he was examining the device that was now in his right hand.
"Pika Pika." Pikachu said also wondering what it was.
"It's a new kind of pokedex. It creates a holographic image of the pokemon you point at or you could look it up with the info." Tracy said
"Wow, thanks Tracy. Well we better head off then. Let's go Pikachu!"
"Pikachu" it said happily.
Both waved goodbye to Tracy as they head south toward the port.
Meanwhile in the forest
"I'm hungry Jess." A blue haired boy said.
"Well tough luck James. You're not the only one hungry." A girl with red hair said.
"Both of you be quiet, I'm trying to eat in peace." A cat-like pokemon said.
"Where did you get that apple?" James asked with hungry eyes.
"I found it on the floor" came Meowth's answer.
"And you didn't even bother to share with us." Jesse said while choking Meowth.
"Here you can have it." Meowth said still shaken from Jesse's rage with swirling eyes.
"Now that's more like it." Jesse said but before she could fully take it another hand grabbed the apple also.
"What about me Jesse, I'm hungry too." James whined.
"You're a man. I'm though a beautiful woman who needs her nutrition." Jesse now both were fighting over the apple.
"What about me, I found the apple first." Meowth said who was now battling for the apple as well.
While all three were arguing about the apple one of Jesse's pokeball fell off and a pokemon came out.
"Wobbuffet" the blue pokemon said.
Wobbuffet saw all three were now fighting and unknown to them the apple fell right in front of Wobbuffet. Wobbuffet saw and ate apple and Team Rocket who realize they didn't have the apple and saw it eaten by the blue pokemon.
"Wobbuffet, you useless blue blob!" Jesse said and pounded Wobbuffet on the head with her fist.
"Wobbu" the pokemon said in a dizzy state.
"That was the last of our food. Now we'll starve." James said
"Let's eat here Pikachu."
"Huh? Was that the twerp I just heard?" Jesse asked.
All three checked from a bush and found Ash and Pikachu sitting there eating lunch.
"This is our chance! We can grab Pikachu while they're eating." came Meowth's voice.
"I just want to grab the twerp's sandwich." James said with a drool on his mouth.
"Stop daydreaming James and let's go." Jesse replied while dragging James with Wobbuffet and Meowth behind them.
Ash and Pikachu are now in a forest just relaxing and having a quick snack.
"How's the food Pikachu?" he asked his friend.
"Pikachu!" it replies while it merrily munching on its food.
Ash was enjoying a good bologna sandwich his mom made for him. "You ready buddy." Ash asked his little friend.
"Pika!" Pikachu replied.
Before they could go anywhere they heard two familiar voices.
"Prepare for trouble."
"Make it double"
"To protect the world from devastation"
"To unite all people within our nation"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love"
"To extend our reach to the stars above"
"Jesse"
"James"
"Team Rocket blasting off at the speed of light"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight"
"Meowth that's right"
"Wobbuffet"
"Team Rocket!" Ash cried.
"Pi Pikachu!" Pikachu said angrily knowing who they were.
"What do you guys want?" Ash said furiously.
"Silly boy, haven't you already learn by now we're after your Pikachu" Jesse said pointing at Pikachu.
"Yeah so hand it over or we'll have to get physical on ya." Meowth yelled.
"Forget it, Team Rocket!"
"Fine have it your way. Go Seviper!" Jesse yelled while throwing a pokeball. There was a bright flash and then the pokemon appeared.
"Seviper!" the snake pokemon said.
"Seviper use your poison tail!"
Seviper's tail glowed purple and was about to strike Pikachu but Pikachu dodged easily.
"Cacnea go, use your pin missiles!" James said but Cacnea grabbed on to James." Not over here, over there!"
"Cacnea" its arms glowed and needles came from it and aim straight at Pikachu.
"Dodge and use quick attack." Ash quickly said.
"Pika." Pikachu easily dodge the array of needles and its body moved forward with a streak of light into Cacnea causing a direct hit.
"Had enough." Ash smirked.
"Grrr, use your tackle Seviper." Jesse angrily said.
"You too Cacnea." James said.
"Seviper."
"Cacnea"
Both tilted their heads and aim straight toward the electric mouse.
"Pikachu use iron tail quickly." Ash said.
Pikachu's tail glowed brightly and hit both pokemon causing Seviper and Cacnea to collide with their trainers.
"Pikachu use thunderbolt!"
"Pikkaachuu!" Pikachu yelled as its body was surrounded by electricity and send a large thunderbolt hurling at Team Rocket.
"Ahh!" James, Jesse, Meowth, Wobbuffet, and their pokemon yelled at they were sent flying.
"Jesse I'm still hungry." James said still in the air.
"Well Jimmy if Jesse wasn't greedy we wouldn't be in this situation." Meowth cried.
"Be quiet!" Jesse said.
"Wobbuffet!" the pokemon said.
"Looks like Team Rocket is blasting off again!" they cried as they became nothing more than a twinkle in the sky.
"I guess it's time we head off, Huh?" Ash asked and smiled at Pikachu.
"Pika!" Pikachu happily replied to Ash.
After an hour they had reached the edge of the forest. Ash and Pikachu were both in awe as they saw the buildings and the port as they headed into the city.
