Ash and his companions burst into the streets of cerulean city, panting hard. "What kind of Pokémon was that?" Misty cried out to her exhausted friends, "You live here!" Ash yelled back "You've never seen that Pokémon before?" "Of course I haven't! If I did, it would be in the pokedex, wouldn't it?" Misty responded, getting even more frantic by the second. "Oh, yeah…" Ash said, looking at the small device that malfunctioned when it was supposed to scan the creature. "I've never seen that happen to a pokedex, I wonder what that thing did." Brock said, putting on his thinking face. "Hey, maybe we could catch it and show it to the professor! He'll definitely know what it is!" Ash exclaimed, excited with his plan. "Of course! Oak must know what to do with that thing, besides, we might have discovered a new species!" Brock responded, warming up to the idea.

Meanwhile, a creature made of living data and a cocoon as durable as steel who was riding comfortably on his back, making silk straps around his large companion's shoulders. Were, together, tracking the scent of their new friends towards the large city ahead of them.
