The Pewter Museum Heist

Tom, Sparky, Liam and their pokemon all woke up and got ready for the next leg of their journey. They went downstairs for their free hot breakfast that Nurse Joy had cooked for them. They left the pokemon centre and began to leave the city when they heard the yell of a Voltorb followed by an explosion. 'Please don't hurt me!' a man cried in the distance. The trio turned around and noticed a hole in the Museum Of Pewter City.

'They must be after the expensive gem stones and fossils that are in the museum!' Liam yelled
'I bet they are!' Sparky agreed

They ran toward the museum to see Blake returning his Voltorb and Bonnie commanding Shellder to keep an eye on the museum owner as she loaded all the gemstones into a sack. 'Blake get upstairs and grab the three fossils and load them on the Rocket Chopper!'

'Stop right there Team Rocket!' Tom yelled
'How amusing' Bonnie smirked 'Get them with ice beam Shellder!'
Bonnie's Shellder used its ice beam at Tom but he managed to dive out the way.

'Squirtle tackle it!'

Squirtle tackled the Shellder and it flew backwards and smacked into the wall behind it.
'Elekid, go upstairs and stop Blake!' Sparky commanded as she threw out the pokeball. Elekid did what it was told and ran upstairs. Liam threw his pokeball and sent out his Sandshrew and told him to check if the museum owner was alright. Squirtle continued to fight Shellder when Shellder surprised Squirtle with an ice beam attack and knocked him to the floor.
'oh no, Squirtle!' Tom yelled
'Back him up Sandshrew!' Liam commanded

Sandshrew dug under the floor of the museum and then popped up and surprised Shellder with a tackle attack and made it slam the roof and faint. Tom, Liam and the pokemon headed up to join Sparky and Elekid. Blake swiftly kicked Elekid and it tumbled across the floor. Bonnie and Blake threw the sacks of gem stones and fossils into the helicopter and took off but not before tom grabbed onto the bottom of it.

As they ascended Blake decided to get Tom off the chopper himself so he sent out his Voltorb. 'Voltorb use self-destruct! Oh wait don't don't don't!' but it was too late, Voltorb exploded the helicopter as Tom let go and started to fall

'Sandshrew start digging Tom a pile of soft dirt to land on!'
Sandshrew started to dig as fast as it could and made a very tall pile of soft earth. Tom landed right on the pile and rolled over the side of it. As Bonnie and Blake were sent flying out of view and all the gemstones started to rain down. 'Everybody start grabbing the gemstones before they break!' Tom yelled
Everybody was running around catching the gemstones when a clear looking one landed in the grass next to Squirtle 'Squirtle stay away from that, that is an everstone. If you touch that then you will never be able to evolve!' Squirtle seemed to know that but kept walking towards it. Squirtle picked up the everstone and let it dissolve into him.

'Oh no Squirtle, we better get you into a pokemon centre to see if they can quickly undo the effects of it' Tom panicked but Squirtle refused. 'you mean you never wanted to evolve?'
Squirtle nodded its head.

Later that evening all the gemstones had been returned to the museum and the owner was very grateful. He didn't mind that Squirtle had used his everstone but he was glad Shellder didn't get his hands on a water stone and that Team Rocked didn't get the fossils. The trio went back to the pokemon centre and spent the night there. The next day they headed off to the city gates to depart for their journey. This time they made it past the gates and began to head towards Viridian Forest.
