Can they recover the six starter Pokemon before the trainer arrives?

Run, Pokemon, Run: Part 1

It was a sunny morning at ToonSchool, the craziest school for toons. In the Pokémon Biology class out at the Creature House, Professor Oak was giving a lecture to the class…or trying to, at least, due to Bloo's interruptions.

"So why doesn't a Miltank have milk-based attacks?," Bloo asked.

"Well actually, it does have a non-offensive move based on milk," Oak said.

"And why must Pokemon be sprayed with Potions instead of drinking them?"

"Because…"

"And why do Pikachu look so fat? If you ask me, it's from eating all that electricity. And Ash's Pikachu is a prime example of that!"

"Hey, that wasn't nice!," Bubbles protested.

"Yeah, don't talk about my Pikachu like that!," Ash added.

"Hey, I'm just telling it like I see it. Besides it's not like he's around to hear it."

"Pika…," Bloo heard as he became nervous and glanced behind him to see Ash's Pikachu sparking electricity, and looking angry.

"Of course, I could be wrong."

"CHUUUUUU!," Pikachu said as it shocked Bloo with Thunderbolt.

"And the lights went out all over the world," Bloo said dazed before passing out. Several members of the class applauded at this including the gang.

"Serves him right," Blossom said. Just then the bell rang, signaling the end of the class, as the students gathered their things to leave.

"Um, Tony," Oak said. "Can I see you and your friends for a second right now?"

The gang stopped as the other students left the room. Tony walked up to Oak and said, "Professor, if this is about Bloo disrupting the class again, I think Pikachu already taught him a lesson."

"True, but that's not why I asked you all to stay behind. I have a favor to ask you."

"What's the favor?," Ash asked.

"Well, we have a new trainer here in ToonTown coming to get his first Pokemon," Tracey said. "He'll be here around the end of the day."

"And in addition to the Kanto region starters Charmander, Squirtle, and Bulbasaur, we have the starters imported from the Kalos region, Chespin, Fennekin, and Froakie," Oak added. "The trainer will be here later in the afternoon, and I have some a meeting to attend at the time. So…"

"You need us to babysit the Pokemon until the trainer gets here?," Tony guessed.

"Precisely."

"Well I'm up for it."

"Me too!," Ash exclaimed with glee.

"Me three," Daryl added. "Anybody else?"

"Yeah!," shouted most of the gang.

"Not us," said Bart, Timmy, and Bloo. Everyone turned and looked at the three.

"What? Why not?," Bubbles asked.

"Because we hate babysitting Pokemon, remember?," Bart said. "Everytime we do, it always brings trouble."

"Yeah, especially the last time, remember?," Bloo asked.

"Oh, come on dawgs, the last time wasn't so bad," Jake replied.

"Not so bad?! That Chimchar set me on fire!," Timmy annoyingly reminded them.

"It was just your pants, Timmy," Blossom reminded Timmy in return.

"But still we don't like it, and we're not doing it," Bart said.

"Yeah, so count us out," Bloo said.

"Well, you know you guys could use some lesson in fixing your mistakes, especially since you three make so many," Danny said.

"Like what kind of mistakes?," Timmy asked.

"Like the water balloon you set up on Prickley's office door," June said. Just then everyone heard a splash, and Prickley scream.

"When I get my hands on the hooligans who did this, they'll get detention for life!," he yelled.

"So what do you guys say now?," Buttercup asked.

Now scared, the three troublemakers turned and Timmy said, "On second thought, we'll help too."

"At least until Prickley cools off," Bart agreed.

"Good to hear. I best get to my meeting now," Oak said as he left the Creature House.

"Let's get to work," Tony said. The gang then set about to look after the six Starter Pokémon. Unknown to them, the Snob Squad, who'd been eavesdropping, peaked out from behind some boulders.

"So, babysitting Pokemon?," Vicky said as she got angry. "Not on my watch. I'm the only one certified to babysit anything around here!"

"So what do you have in mind, Vicky?," Eugene asked.

"Yeah, what's the plan," Brad asked as well.

"Well, our ex-member and those other two seem to hate the job…"

"Yeah, and?," Mindy asked.

"If we were to make things hard and inconvenient for them…"

"They'd go nuts and crack under the pressure!," Princess exclaimed. "Genius!"

"But how do we get them to crack?," Dash asked.

"I got it. Follow me!," Vicky said as the Snobs crept away unnoticed.

Meanwhile the gang and Tracey were performing check-ups on the Starter Pokemon's health. Bubbles, by far, was enjoying playing "nurse" the most to the Pokémon.

"Okay, Charmander seems a-okay," she said as she removed the stethoscope from Charmander's chest.

"Charmander-Char," Charmander replied.

"And it looks like this Squirtle's rearing to go," Danny said as he finished polishing Squirtle's shell.

"Squirtle-Squirtle-Squirt," Squirtle said happily.

"And Bulbasaur is all pumped too," Lilo said as she and Stitch tested it's reflexes.

"Bulbasaur!," Bulbasaur said. Meanwhile, Tony was looking over the Kalos starters with Ash.

"Wow, the Kalos starters are incredible," Tony said.

"I know," Ash said. "Froakie's the Water-type. It can create bubbles called Frubbles from its chest and back, which act as a cushion and soften the blow of an opponent's attack. It evolves into Frogadier and then Greninja."

"Sweet! What about Fennekin?"

"Fennekin's the Fire-type. It expels hot air that can reach nearly 400 degrees. It also likes to snack on twigs. It evolves into Braixen, and then Delphox."

"Nice. And Chespin?"

"Chespin's the Grass-type. It can flex the soft spikes on its head, making them so stiff and sharp that it can even pierce through stone. It evolves into Quilladin, and then Chesnaught."

"Wow. These three are awesome Pokemon," Tony complimented. The three starters blushed at the complement. Just then, the school bell rang.

"Lunch time!," Buttercup shouted.

"Yeah, all this caring for the Pokémon has made me hungry," Jimmy said. Just then, they heard a growling sound and looked at Tommy.

"Me too," he said.

"So then let's go and get some lunch!," Tony said, as the gang and Tracey turned to leave the Creature House. But then he turned towards Bart and Timmy.

"Hold on, Bart and Timmy," Tony said. "Could you two and Bloo-"

Before he could finish, Bloo rushed out of the Creature House screaming, "FREEEEDOOOOM! CHILL ROOM AND VIDEO GAMES HERE I COME!"

"Or just you two feed the Pokemon?"

"Huh? Why do we have to do it?," Bart asked in protest.

"Because you guys didn't do anything to help out with the Pokemon," Ash told them.

"Just feed them and then come join us in the cafeteria," Ash said as everyone else left.

"Aw, man," Timmy said. "Well let's get this over with."

The two then fetched some bags of Pokémon food and poured it into the bowls in front of the Kanto and Kalos starters, who then began to eat. As this happened, Chespin tried to take some of Squirtle's food, but Squirtle slapped Chespin's hand away. Chespin then shoved Squirtle shoved back, and then the two tackled and start wrestling each other as Bart and Timmy tried to break them up.

"I thought Pokemon were supposed to be as easy as pets," Timmy said.

"Me too, some job this is," Bart added.

Meanwhile, in another part of the Creature House, the Snob Squad had reached the section where a large swarm of Beedrill were kept.

"So you're gonna unleash the Beedrill on them?," Mindy asked.

"Yep! And everyone knows what happens if on of them stings you, and everyone will run for their lives!," Vicky said.

"But what about the door's code? Only Professor Oak and that Tracey guy know it," Brad asked.

"Leave that to me and my newly bought Code Cracker," Eustace said as he took out a phone-like device and hooked it up to the door's code pad. In a few moments the code appeared on the screen: 4197.

"Easy," Eustace said as the door opened. Dash then threw a rock inside at the Beedrill and then they all hid as the swarm came flying out angrily.

"Yes!," Vicky hissed.

Back with Bart and Timmy, the two had finally managed to stop the fight between Squirtle and Chespin when…

"Hey, you hear that?," Timmy asked.

"Hear what?," Bart asked.

"That buzzing noise."

"Yeah, I do. What is-?"

Just then the two looked to the side to see the swarm of Beedrill coming straight at them!

"Beedrill?! How'd they get out?!" Bart shouted.

"I dunno, but run!," Timmy screamed. The two boys along with all the Pokemon in the Creature House ran screaming for cover as the loose Beedrill buzzed all around. The Snob Squad, hicde nearby, snickered at their misfortune.

"Ha, look at them run!," Vicky said.

"This is better than chasing after nerds!," Dash said. Just then Princess heard a similiar buzzing behind her. She turned and saw several very angry Beedrill staring at the six.

"Um, guys you might wanna look behind you," she said fearfully. The other five did just that, and became afraid at the sight of the Beedrill.

"Run?," Princess asked.

"Run," Vicky replied and the Snob Squad ran off with the Beedrill chasing after them. They all quickly climbed out of a window, shut it behind them and ran off. Back inside it was chaos as the two boys dove for cover as the Beedrill continued to buzz around the Creature House. The six starter Pokemon ran around terrified, until Charmander saw an open window and ran towards it. The other five saw this and followed, with all of them crawling out the window and running off in different directions.

Not long afterwards, the gang, minus Ash returned from the cafeteria to see what was keeping Bart and Timmy.

"What's taking those two so long?," Buttercup asked.

"Yeah, I mean it can't take that long to feed six little Pokémon," Mac said. "What's going on?"

"Let's find out," Tony said as he opened the door. The gang was shocked to see the Creature House a big mess: food spilled, objects thrown around and broken, Beedrill buzzing around and other Pokémon running amuck.

"What the? What happened here?," Daryl asked. Just then, Bart and Timmy appeared, dazed and exhausted.

"Guys…thank goodness…you're here," Bart said.

"What did you guys do?!," Tony asked stunned.

"We didn't…do…anything," Timmy said.

"Then how do you explain this mess?," June asked.

"Beedrill…got out…somehow…chaos…all over…," Bart answered.

"Well it's a good thing I left before you made me feed those starter Pokemon," Bloo said.

"Speaking of which…," Tracey started to say.

"Where are the starter Pokemon?," June finished for him. The whole gang looked around the lab, but saw no sign of any of them.

"They must've slipped out of the lab during all the chaos!," Timmy said.

"What are we gonna do?!," Bubbles said. Just then, Janitor approached the gang.

"Um, excuse me fellas," he asked. "But can you explain why I found this in my cleaning cart?," he said as he pulled out Squirtle.

"Squirtle!," Tony said as he took the Squirtle.

"Well that's one we found," Danny said. "How did all this happen anyhow?"

"Well, come to think of it, the Snob Squad ran by me earlier, talking about Beedrill and them thinking something through," Janitor informed them.

"Of course, the Snob Squad," Blossom said in an obvious tone. "Who else could be so smart to sabotage us?"

"Or so stupid to brag about it as they run off," Buttercup added in the same tone. Just then, Ash walked in the Creature House.

"Hey guys! What's-"

Ash quickly stops when he saw the starter Pokemon are gone. "Aw man! Did Bart sold them?" Ash asked in anger.

"I don't sell Pokemon, weak..." Bart said, offended.

Ash groaned in frustration as Tony explains, "The Snob Squad let them escape. We found a Squirtle from Janitor."

"Unfortunately, we don't know where to find the rest of them!" Daryl continued.

Then, Professor Oak came in to the room and said, "Kids, what going-"

He also stops when he saw the mess of the Creature an empty table and six empty Pokeballs on the ground.

"Did Bart sold them again?," Oak asked in the same tone as Ash's.

"Why's everyone keep saying that?" Bart asked in frustration.

"No, the Snob Squad snuck in and let all the Beedrill out, and the Pokemon escaped in all the hullabaloo," Tommy said.

"I see. Well, we'll deal with the Snobs later, but right now we gotta find those Pokemon, before the trainer arrives," Oak said.

"Well what time will he get here?," Blossom asked.

"At 2 PM," Tracey replied.

"Well it's 11:30 AM now, so that gives us…two-and-a-half hours to find them," Jimmy calculated as he read the clock in the Creature House.

"Then we best get organized and get searching!," Daryl said.

"YEAH!," most of the gang shouted.

"Well can we have lunch first, cause I'm starving!," Bart said.

"Me too," Timmy added.

"NO!," most of the rest of the gang said as they rushed to get organized.

Ten minutes later, the gang, plus Oak and Tracey was gathered in front of a chart with pics of the Pokemon and about to set out to find the missing starters.

"Okay, guys," Tony said. "We have six starter Pokémon that have gone AWOL. We've already found one, Squirtle."

"So we still have to find Charmander, Bulbasaur, Froakie, Chespin, and Fennekin, in two hours and twenty minutes," Daryl said.

"And they could be anywhere in the school, so keep your eyes peeled and prepare to have to travel big heights if you have to," Tony continued.

"So, we'll have to split up. Jake, Blossom, Bart, Mac, Tommy, and Tracey you go together. Tony, Bubbles, June, Timmy, Bloo and Oak, you guys make the next group. And Danny, Ash, Pikachu, Lilo, Stitch, and Buttercup, you all come with me," Daryl organized.

"Now grab your walkie-talkies, flashlights, gadgets, and everything you need and lets move!"

Most of the gang did just that; Bloo, however, refused to budge.

"Uh, Bloo, were you not paying attention just now?," Mac said to him.

"Yeah I was. So count me out!," he replied. The gang looked at him stunned.

"Hey, we gotta get those Pokémon back!," Ash told him.

"No, you have to get them back. I told you I wanted nothing to do with babysitting Pokémon, and I meant it! And nothing's gonna change my mind!"

"Rotom, give him a Discharge," Oak ordered his Pokémon, who then started charging up to attack.

"AHH! Okay, okay, OKAY! I'LL HELP!," he said as he picked up his stuff too, not wanting a repeat of what happened with Pikachu earlier.

"Good, now let's split up and move out!," Tony said as the three groups split up to find the remaining starter Pokémon.

A/N: Well, the search is on! Can they find the Pokémon before the trainer arrives? And what heights will their search take them? Find out on Part 2, next time!
