Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto or Pokemon
*3 months later*
It was a very bright, sunny day and the gang was traveling at a slow but normal pace. So far they have climbed mountains, gone through caves, and passed through different routes to get closer to their destination. After traveling for days, they stopped by a pokemon center located at the end of the Silent Forest (An: lame name, I know -_-). There they ran into Naruto gang and unfortunately for them, the blond and raven hair trainer wanted to battle both the silver-pinkette and the elder uchiha. A double battle more like it. Everyone else just sat down on a nearby bench to watch. Itachi chose his Blaziken and Sakura chose her newly evolved Sceptile. Sasuke chose his strong and trusty Charmeleon while Naruto chose his newly evolved Swampert.
"Now begin!" Sasori, acting as referee, shouted.
The four trainers sent their pokemon at each other with everything they got while their friends cheered them on. Five minutes has passed and so far, everything was going good for Itachi and Sakura who had the upper hand. Naruto and Sasuke on the hand weren't doing so well.
"Swampert, wash them away with Surf!" Naruto commanded.
"You know what to do Charmeleon." Sasuke said.
The fire lizard smirked before summoning a green barrier just a huge wave crashed upon and headed towards their opponents. Swampert was showing some great skill and balance on controlling the attack that seemed to be bigger than normal while riding on top of it, handstand style.
'Hmmmm, good…but not good enough.' Sakura and Itachi mused before calling out their attack.
"Spin and cut down that surf with Leaf Blade."
"Use Sky Uppercut right after."
Sceptile rushed forward with his arm blades growing longer and glowing green before he jumped and performed a summersault, spinning at high speeds and glow from his attack shined so brightly that it covered his whole body and spinning blades popped out.
"Sceppppp!!" he grinned as he slashed right through the water like it was paper and Swampert came falling down since he had nothing to suspend him in the air. Sceptile was now coming at the mudfish, from Naruto's and Sasuke's perspective of view.
"Dodge it!!!"
Right when the mudfish was about to move, Sceptile disappeared out of view only for Blaziken to pop up in front of Swampert's face, shocking the water pokemon.
"Blazzzzzeeee!!" the fire bird raised up his left glowing blue fist and slugged Swampert hard in the jaw.
"Swam!!!" he cried out before crashing into the ground and creating a nice sized crater too.
"No, Swampert!" Naruto shouted worriedly.
His partner Sasuke gritted his teeth and finally made his move "Come on out and use Fire Blast on both of them!"
Responding to his trainer's anger, Charmeleon burst out of the ground behind Sceptile and Blaziken and with all his strength blew out the most powerful and biggest Fire Blast he's ever done in his life. The fiery hot flames rushed towards the two, but they weren't worried one bit. To be honest, they looked really bored.
"Hehehe…" Sceptile smirked and summoned a green barrier and Blaziken jumped up high into the sky and then came down with a powerful slam. The ground blew up and the shockwave of the attack knocked the surprised Charmeleon over, swirly eyes appeared on the fire lizard's face.
"Damn it!" Sasuke cursed.
Naruto noticed that his pokemon finally got out of the crater with bruises all over and panting heavily. He knew his Swampert was at his limit and so he decided to use his final attack to end the match before he and teme loses.
"Use Hydro Pump at full power!"
"Wrap this match up with Energy Ball!"
Before Swampert could even get the chance to fire his attack, he was knocked down and the next second he was hit in the face by a dark greenish-black orb.
"Swam!!!" he cried out in pain before fainting dead away.
"Both Swampert and Charmeleon are unable to continue; therefore the winner of this double battle goes to Itachi and Sakura." Sasori announced boredly.
Naruto and Sasuke rushed towards their pokemon to check on them, after that two pulled out their pokeballs and returned their pokemon back into the balls to rest.
"Sceptile Scep Sceptile! (Great job, dude)" Sceptile grinned and bumped fist with the fire bird who bumped his back too.
"Blaziken Blaze Blaziken. (Yeah, you too)" Blaziken grinned back at his friend.
Naruto and Sasuke stood up while Itachi and Sakura came closer to the two.
"Foolish little brother, you haven't gotten any stronger than the last time we have met." said Itachi.
The young raven haired uchiha didn't say anything but grit his teeth in anger while Naruto looked at him worriedly. The audience in the back were quiet, the trainers and coordinater in Naruto's group were shocked except for Shikamaru and Shino.
"How could have Sasuke-kun lose?!" Ino wailed, refusing to believe that her number one crush just lost a few seconds ago.
"They probably cheated and Naruto-baka slowed Sasuke-kun down in the match!" Karin accused with a glare.
This earned to two a couple of glares for that remark, especially Naruto's the most.
"You shouldn't be little your friend so much." Kiyosha scolded.
"Besides, Sakura and Itachi are high level trainers, one being the Shinnoh Champion and the other being one of the Elite Four in Johto." Shikamaru explained.
"In other words, Sasuke and Naruto stood no chance against Sakura-chan and Itachi-teme, yeah." Deidara elaborated the rest.
Naruto's gang settled down, taking in everything they heard though Ino and Karin were still struggling to take in the harsh truth.
"Train your pokemon more and maybe then you'll be strong enough to face high caliber trainers like us." Sakura suggested/advised with a blank face. Itachi next to her, nodded in agreement.
"Hai…" came the defeated voices of Sasuke and Naruto.
The silver pinkette smiled and was about to speak again but was interrupted when a red metal claw came out of the bushes and snatched up Luxray.
"Lux!!!!!!" came the electric pokemon's shocked cry.
Everyone turned around and spotted a Meowth shaped balloon with three people inside.
"What the-"
They were interrupted again by three familiar voices.
"Listen, is that a voice I hear?"
"It's speaking to me loud and clear."
"On the Wind!"
"Past the Stars!"
"In your ear!"
"Bringing chaos at a breakneck pace."
"Dashing hope, putting fear in its place."
"A rose by any other name is just as sweet."
"When everything's worse, our work is complete."
"Jessie!"
"And it's James!"
"And Meowth, now dat's a name!"
"Putting the do-gooders in their place."
"We're Team Rocket."
"In your face!"
"Wobbuffet!
"Mime Mime!"
At the sight of the five, Sakura gang's expressions turned a complete one-eighty.
"TEAM ROCKET!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Team who?" was Naruto gang's confused response.
Said three members of team rocket and their pokemon anime face planted in their hot air balloon while Sakura's gang just sweat-dropped.
Meowth was the first one to recover and he jumped up to shout "WHAT?!"
"How could you not know who we are?!" James hollered.
"We're Team Rocket, the most notorious, dangerous, and fearsome organization in the world!" Jessie shouted.
It was silent, everyone else waited for the spiky blond's gang response, anticipating on what they were going to say. Two more minutes passed before Naruto said something.
"Never heard of ya." he answered for his group.
Team Rocket face planted again and Sakura's gang sweat-dropped again, though it was bigger this time.
"Arrg, forget it! We'll just capture da rest of your pokemon!" Meowth rapidly pressed buttons on the machine pad in front of him and the other claw activated. It started moving and then it soar towards the two pokemon left, ready to capture them…only for it to be destroyed by Sceptile's Draw Claw and Blaziken's Mega Kick.
"……….." Jessie, James, and Meowth's jaws dropped at the site of their failed capture and ruined machine piece.
"We're not falling for that again." Sakura scoffed.
"Come on out Seviper and use Haze!" Jessie threw her pokeball and out came the giant snake with red fangs.
"Sevvviipperrrrrr…" it opened its mouth and sprayed a thick cloud of black darkness that covered the two gangs, Sceptile, and Blaziken and made them all cough.
When the haze cleared, team rocket was gone although you could still see them in the distance, barely.
"They're getting away!" Brainyu shouted while pointing at the meowth balloon.
"Let's follow them." Kiyosha and Sakura said and they ran down the road ahead with the rest following.
*** To Team Rocket***
"Luxray capture complete…" Meowth laughed.
The electric pokemon trapped inside a cage now tried to destroy it with his thunderbolt attack, but it didn't work.
"Good thing we paid extra to make this cage electricity proof." James grinned as the other two laughed.
Though there laugher was cut short when an Overheat came out of nowhere and struck bull's eye on its target and popped the air balloon in the process. The cage broke and Luxray came free but he fell out of it and was now falling out of the sky.
"Catch Luxray, Ninetails!" a familiar voiced called out.
A speedy pale yellow blur soared through the skies and caught the electric pokemon just in time and landed on the ground gracefully. The fire fox sat Luxray down and he turned toward his savior and smiled at Ninetails.
"Lux Luxray. (Thank you)"
"Ninetails Ninnnnnne. (You're welcome)" she smiled back.
"You're going to pay for that you bratty twerp!" Jessie yelled out angrily as her, James, and Meowth climbed out of their destroyed meowth balloon from behind the bushes.
"It's not nice to steal other people's pokemon…especially when that pokemon belongs to the Shinnoh camp, you'll face that trainer's wrath…right, Sakura." The stranger said just as soon as the whole gang came running into the clearing.
The silver pinkette, Brainyu, and Kiyosha looked surprised to see the familiar chocolate brown haired boy with blue eyes again.
"Yes, you are indeed right." she said but narrowed her eyes in team rocket's direction. Oh she was definitely going to get them alright.
"Time to take back what rightfully belongs to us now!" Jessie challenged, "Seviper, use Poison Tail!" she commanded.
"Carnivine, I need your assistance!" James said as he summoned the flytrap pokemon only for it to turn around and glomp/chomp him.
"This has happened one too many times!" James hollered/whined as he struggled/danced around to get the affectionate pokemon off who was squeezing the life out of the him now.
In the background, Jessie and Meowth sweat-dropped and then sighed heavily.
Once James managed to get Carnivine off of him he ordered it to use Vine Whip.
"Dodge that and use Flamethrower." John said calmly.
The huge fox with nine fluffy tails jumped out of the way from both attacks and spat out a stream of white hot fire at Seviper and Carnivine. They both cried out and crashed into their respective trainers, knocked out cold.
"Alright Luxray, send those idiots flying with Volt Tackle!" Sakura said coldly.
Luxray responded to his trainer's anger and glowed a bright golden yellow color as he ran and rammed right into team rocket, sending all of them flying.
"This is starting to get a little old now!" Meowth complained.
"Maybe we should go after another strong pokemon next time and deliver it to the boss!" James suggested, "Then again, we should've stick with capturing that twerp's Pikachu." he grumbled under his breath and Jessie just sighed in response.
"We're blasting off again!" team rocket screamed, their voices echoing in the morning skies as they disappeared in the far distance with a twink.
