Attention all readers-Here is the Johto region. I'm going on record to say that I'm working hard on the Johto region and I've only seen certain clips online for certain episodes. In the original airing of Pokemon and its entire running of Ash and Pikachu's journey, I know that Ash doesnt have a sibling. Like the other Pokemon Fanfiction that I have uploaded so far, in my version (as well as others that I have read), Ash has a sibling.
Also, Jordan will do the current count for the number of times Team Rocket tried to take Pikachu and Meeko away from her and Ash, that includes the banned and not aired in the United States episodes. I don't want to make those episodes feel left out. I hope that you will like it and Happy Reading!
I DONT OWN POKEMON! I ONLY OWN THE OC AND THE CREATION OF HER REGIONAL POKEMON TEAM! TO ANYONE WHO HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE REGION ORDER THAT I'M WRITING, I ASK THAT YOU STOP COMPLAINING ABOUT IT! ITS GETTING REALLY ANNOYING RIGHT NOW! I'M WORKING WITH WHAT I GOT SO DONT RUSH ME TO DO THE OTHER REGIONS, OK!
Shoutouts:
Narrator: On their journey to Violet City and Johto League glory, our heroes find themselves in the majestic town of Palm Hills.
Jordan: So many palm trees.
Meeko, looking around her: Riolu
"Look at all these humongous houses!" said Ash.
"They aren't houses. They're mansions." said Misty.
"Think you'll live in a mansion like those one day, Misty?" asked Jordan.
"I hope so." she tells her.
"It says here Palm Hills is famous for its sprawling estates and sweeping lawns." said Brock.
"I'll say." said Ash.
"Palm Hills is too rich for my taste." said Jordan.
"Riolu." said Meeko.
"Wow! Look at the size of that one over there!" said Misty.
"Its huge!" said Ash.
"Ah!"
"I wonder how many rooms it has." said Jordan.
"Sweeping lawns, huh?" asked Ash. "I wouldn't even want to mow it."
"I bet it would be fun to play hide and seek in a house with that many rooms." said Misty.
"Togeprriii!" said Togepi.
"It would be the biggest game of hide and seek in Ketchum history." said Jordan.
"Hey, do you think maybe they'd let us camp out in their garden?" asked Brock.
"Somehow, I don't think so, Brock." said Misty.
"Have you searched everywhere?" asked a man running behind Misty,
"Uh-huh."
"All the usual places."
"You keep looking and I'll keep madam from getting frantic." said the man.
"Right." said the second man as he and the third man take off.
"Looking for what?" asked Ash.
"Better yet, looking for who?" asked Jordan.
"Olu?" asked Meeko.
"Hey, look what Togepi and I found." said Misty with a map in her hand.
"What is it?" Ash asked.
"It's a map that will show us where all of the stars are!" said Misty.
"I know where the stars are, Misty!" said Ash as Misty laughs.
"She's not talking about those stars, Ash." said Jordan. "Good thing I brought my camera."
"Exactly! Movie stars!" said Misty. "It shows where the houses of the movie stars are."
"Who wants to waste time looking at houses?" Ash asked.
"Sounds boring to me." added Brock.
"Oh really, Brock?" asked Misty. "Well, lots of your favorite actresses live in those boring houses."
"Ash….we gotta get a picture of Mom's favorite movie star." said Jordan. "And you know I gotta at least take a picture of their house. Otherwise no evidence, no proof."
"Ah!" said Brock, changing his tune. "So, what are we waiting for? Come on!"
"Wait up!" said Ash as they took off after him. Out of nowhere, a Growlithe turns the corner, howling in pain.
"Hey, a Growlithe!" said Ash.
"Growl, Growl!" said Growlithe, upset as it ran.
"Something's making Growlithe awfully upset." said Ash.
"Pika." said Pikachu.
"Who or what made Growlithe upset?" asked Jordan.
"Riol." said Meeko.
"Growl!" it said as it stops in front of the quartet.
"You got to settle down now, Growlithe otherwise we cant even try to help you!" said Ash.
"Growl! Growlithe! Growl!" it said. In the dust cloud, there was a little pink Pokémon, hanging onto Growlithe.
"Wonder what's wrong?" asked Brock.
"I think something's been chasing it, Brock." said Misty. Finally, Growlithe shakes it off and runs off in a panic.
"Huh?"
"Is that a Pokémon?" asked Misty.
"Wow, it's a Snubbull!" said Brock. "I've never seen one of these before."
"Snubbull!" it said, annoyed.
"Cool." said Ash. "Lets see what Dexter says."
"Snubbull, the Fairy Pokémon. While it may appear gruff and grump, deep down, Snubbull is a kind and caring Pokémon." said Dexter.
"I would say something, but I don't want to be negative about it." said Jordan.
"Riol, Riol, Riolu." said Meeko.
"Pika!" Pikachu scolded Meeko.
"Olu, Riol!" said Meeko.
"It must be kind and caring way deep down." said Misty.
"Snub." said Snubbull.
"Huh! You better let an expert handle this." said Brock.
"Snubbull?" Snubbull asked, confused by Brock.
"You wont snub me, will you, Snubbull?" Brock asked, petting Snubbull.
"Hey, look." Misty said, taking a closer look at Snubbull. "Pink ribbons."
"I guess that makes this Snubbull a girl!" said Brock.
"Snub, Snubbull." it said in agreement.
"I guess you are, huh?" asked Ash. "A grumpy girl who's not afraid to chase Pokémon that reminds me of Misty and Jordan in a way."
Misty, Jordan and Snubbull growled annoyingly at Ash. "Really, now!" said Jordan.
"In a good way." said Ash, hands up to keep the peace.
"Ah! There you are!" said the man from earlier, stopping behind the quartet.
"Huh?"
"Madam, your Snubbull has been found and she's perfectly alright!" he called out to Snubbull's trainer.
"Hello, Snubbull!" said the woman, running towards Snubbull. "Here I am. Thank goodness. Are these children the ones responsible for saving my precious Snubbull?"
"They are." answered the man.
"I simply cannot thank you all enough." said Snubbull's trainer. "Snubbull disappeared last night and ever since I've been in a terrible state of panic imagining the poor thing lost."
"Riol?" Meeko asked Jordan.
"I would go to the ends of the earth to find you and Pikachu." said Jordan as the woman picks up Snubbull.
"Come here, precious." she said as Snubbull turns away. "There! There! Isn't that better now?"
"Snubbull!" Snubbull said, annoyed with its trainer.
"Snubbull, I know you've had a scare but there's no need to be upset." Snubbull's trainer tell it. "After all, you're going home now. Please join us for lunch."
"Uh, okay." said Ash and they followed her to her home. "I don't what it is, but all of a sudden I feel like I'm at the airport."
"You're not the only one." said Jordan.
"And the driveway's as long as a runway." said Misty.
"Riolu?" asked Meeko.
"I'll take you to one someday." said Jordan.
"Snubbull! Snubbull!" Snubbull said, struggling to get out of its trainer's arms.
"Hmm." said Brock, thinking as he watched Snubbull for a moment.
"What's the matter, Brock?" Misty asked.
"What's going on in that head of yours?" asked Jordan.
"I don't know, but if you ask me Snubbull doesn't seem too happy to be going home." said Brock.
"Snubbull." said Snubbull, really wanting to get out of its trainer's arms. Once at the woman's house, the quartet gasped. "It's like a palace." said Misty.
"Or a castle." said Ash.
"I wish we could afford a place like this." said Jordan.
"Its filthy outside so we mustn't forget to wipe our feet." the woman said to Snubbull, wiping her feet, causing the quartet, Pikachu and Meeko to wipe theirs.
"I bet there are fifty rooms in this house, huh?" wondered Misty.
"Jeeves would know the answer to that." said Madame Muchmoney. "How many rooms do we have, Jeeves?"
"Eighty-six at the last count." replied Jeeves.
"Right." she said. "We're planning an addition to the West Wing."
"Huh?"
"There's no time for the grand tour but perhaps you'd like to see Snubbull's wing." Madame Muchmoney suggested.
"Uh, sure." said the quartet.
"This is Snubbull's bedroom on Saturdays." said Madame Muchmoney, showing them one of Snubbull's rooms. "She watches all of her favorite cartoons here every weekend."
"Oh!" gasped the quartet.
"This is Snubbull's walk in closet." said Madame Muchmoney, showing them the closet.
"Its so big, it ought to be called a drive-in closet, not a walk-in closet." said Misty.
"Toge-Toge!" said Togepi.
"I think mom needs one of these." said Jordan. "Better yet, one of us needs one."
"Mom definitely needs one more than us." said Ash.
"It has to be roomy, because I couldn't bear for Snubbull to have to wear the same thing twice." said Madame Muchmoney.
"Pika!" said Pikachu as he, Meeko and Togepi were on a treadmill.
"We all know how important exercise is so I had this workout room built to keep Snubbull in tip top shape." said Madame Muchmoney, showing the exercise room.
"Seems nice, but I think if I was Snubbull I'd rather be running around in tha gigantic yard down there." said Ash, looking out the window.
"I'm trying to keep Snubbull healthy so I hate to send her out with all that harsh sun and polluted air!" said Madame Muchmoney.
"Snubbull."
"Hmm." said Brock.
"And this is her private Snubbull bubble bath." said Madame Muchmoney as Pikachu, Meeko and Togepi were in the water.
"Pika…" Pikachu said, relaxing in the water.
"Riol…" said Meeko, with a towel on her head.
"Toge-Toge!" added Togepi.
"Well, I don't see too many bubbles, but it sure looks like we're gonna have a tough time getting them out of there." said Ash.
"They're so relaxed." said Jordan, smiling at their Pokemon.
"Snubbull's really very lucky to have someone who takes such good care of it." said Misty.
"Thank you, dear, I've spared no expense to make sure my Snubbull is perfectly happy." said Madame Muchmoney.
"Snubbull! Snubbull!" said Snubbull, irritated as it wiggles in its trainer's arms.
"'Perfectly happy', huh?" asked Brock. "I'm not so sure about that."
"Huh?" asked Ash. Just then, the clock chimes noon.
"Oh, its time for Snubbull's lunch." said Madame Muchmoney. "I certainly hope you'd still like to join us."
"Would we ever." said Misty.
"We're starved." said Ash as Jordan pats her stomach.
"Wow! I've never seen a dining room this size before." said Misty.
"We could invite our families here." said Jordan.
"That's because this isn't the dining room, dear." said Madame Muchmoney. "It's only our humble little breakfast nook." Just then, the food was brought out and set on the table.
"Wow! This looks great!" said Misty.
"Even the food's rich." said Ash.
"Looks fantastic!" said Jordan.
"Pikachu! Riolu!" said Pikachu and Meeko.
"Please, everybody, help yourselves." said Madame Muchmoney.
"Thank you. We will." said the quartet, and they started eating. Pikachu and Meeko squealed as they ate. "Not bad, huh, Pikachu?" asked Ash.
"Pika!" said Pikachu.
"Tastes yummy, right, Meeko?" asked Jordan.
"Riolu!" said Meeko.
"It is delicious, isn't it, Togepi?" Misty asked.
"Togeprii!" squealed Togepi.
"Hmm." said Brock, then takes a look at Snubbull.
"Snub." it said, turning its head away from the food.
"Don't you like it, Snubbly Wubbly?" Madame Muchmoney asked Snubbull, then turns to her chef. "I'm sorry, Jacques, but you'll have to clear the table and bring back something that Snubbull will actually eat."
"Ah, but, madame, I have tried everything I know but still mademoiselle Snubbull will eat nothing." said Jacques. "Perhaps, she is simply not hungry."
"That just cant be!" said Madame Muchmoney. "There must be something special you can make for her."
"Ah, I know." said Brock. "I always carry a little something in my bag to snack on. They, uh, they've got to be in here somewhere. Here you go, Snubbull, popcorn balls!"
"But, Brock, there's no way Snubbull's gonna wanna eat them." said Ash as Snubbull looks over and sniffs the food. "Even I think they taste awful."
"And the last time we gave food to a Pokémon, Ash had to go after it because it took his hat, remember." said Jordan.
"Riolu!" said Meeko.
"Snub!" said Snubbull, taking a Popcorn ball and having a taste. "Snubbull!"
"Well! If that isn't the most adorable thing I've ever seen." said Madame Muchmoney as Snubbull continues to eat. "I'll see to it that from now on, we have an endless supply of the finest popcorn balls money can buy."
"That was easy." said Misty.
"I'll say." said Jordan.
"Huh! I have a feeling Snubbull's been looking forward to a taste of reality for a long time." said Brock.
"Maybe the luxury life's not all it's cracked up to be." said Misty.
Outside of the mansion, Team Rocket pops up for a look. "Get a load of these digs!" said Meowth. "Anybody who lives in a joint this swanky must have more dough than a pizza parlor."
"They probably have the pizza parlor too." said Jessie. "That's how it is for the upper crust."
"James would know, 'cause he was born with a silver spoon in his mouth." said Meowth as he and Jessie turned to him.
"Yes, its true." said James. "But we had to get ride of it right away to make room for my foot."
Soon as he said that, Jessie growled at him. "That's not fair." she said, looking at the pool. "Why is it always the rich who get to have all the money?"
"All I know is the only kind of pool when I was growing up was a cesspool." said Meowth.
"For your information, growing up with everything can be terribly hard on a child." said James, thinking about his childhood. "As a boy, I used to get so bored that the servants would have to take me fishing in our pool which was so devasting as you can probably imagine because I never caught a thing."
"You've got some nerve fishing for sympathy!" said Jessie.
"We'll smash you till every bone in your body knows what its like to be broke!" Meowth chimed in.
"Come on, you two." said Jessie as she and the boys crawled on their knees. "This mansion is full of treasures that are ours for the taking if we can just sneak in quietly enough."
"They're never gonna hear us, Jessie." said Meowth. "They've got money coming out of their ears." Meowth stops in his tracks as Snubbull appears in front of him. It then licks his chin.
"Ah! What's that?" Meowth asked.
"I don't know." said Jessie.
"I think that Pokémon is called a Snubbull." said James.
"The jig is up!" said Meowth.
"Hey, you, hold it right there!" said Jeeves, running towards Team Rocket.
"What do you think you're doing with that Snubbull!" said a second servant.
"Getting away from it as fast as we can!" said Jessie.
"They're closing in!" said Meowth.
"Snubbull!" Snubbull said, seeing Meowth's tail. "Snubbull!" Snubbull goes in for a bite of Meowth's tail, causing said Pokémon to scream in pain.
"What're you waiting for, Meowth?" asked James.
"I'm running as fast as I can but I got a Snubbull on my tail!" Meowth cried out, tears streaming down his face.
"Huh?" said Jessie as she sees the quartet. "Fancy seeing you here!"
"I don't blame you." said Jordan, putting away her 'Team Rocket' notebook.
"Well, there goes the neighborhood!" said Ash.
"And who let you losers in?" asked Jessie.
"Out of the way, Twerps!" said James.
"Huh! We just happen to be very special guests here." said Misty, causing Jessie to growl.
"Hey, first things first." said Meowth, running around with Snubbull on his tail. "Forget about them for a second and get this thing off of my tail!"
"Uh….should I just…?" asked Jordan, seeing Snubbull clamp down on Meowth's tail.
"Riolu? Riol?" Meeko asked.
"I wouldn't if I were you." said Brock. "You might hurt him."
"Right." said Jordan.
"Olu." said Meeko.
"Cant you do anything yourself?" Jessie asked, and grabs Meowth by his neck, swinging him around. "Get off! Off! Let go!"
Snubbull lets go of Meowth's tail, flying through the air and lands in Miss Muchmoney's arms. "Oh! Well, hello, precious." she said. "Mummy is happy to have Snubbull home too."
"Wait!" shouted Jeeves as they continued to run towards Team Rocket.
"Go, Weezing." said James. "Smokescreen attack!"
"Weezing, Weez!" it said, releasing Smokescreen on everyone as Team Rocket makes their escape. As Team Rocket makes their getaway, Snubbull stares longingly after Meowth's tail. "Snubbull! Snubbull!" it said, struggling to get down but Madame Muchmoney held onto it.
"I can see how terrified you are but I promise I'll never let you out of my sight again." said Madame Muchmoney.
"I cant believe Team Rocket showed up here of all places." said Misty.
"I wouldn't be surprised if we havent seen the last of them." chimed Ash.
"I'm surprised that Snubbull bite Meowth's tail." said Jordan.
"Riolu." added Meeko. Brock takes a look at Snubbull once again.
"Snubbull." said Snubbull, sadly as it throws a tantrum in Madame Muchmoney's arms. "Snubbull! Snubbull!"
"Maybe its just me, but I couldn't help noticing Snubbull seems a little unhappy." said Brock.
"She's not unhappy, dear." said Madame Muchmoney. "She's just nervous like most brides on their wedding day."
"Wedding day? Riol?" asked Misty, Jordan and Meeko.
"She gets so grumpy, I decided she was lonely and needed a companion." Madame Muchmoney said, then shows then the picture.
"Lets see!" said Misty as Jordan, Meeko and the boys leaned in for a closer look.
"Here comes the groom." sang Ash and suddenly they all gasped.
"His name is Winthrop Snubbullfeller." said Madame Muchmoney. "A real dreamboat, don't you think? They're going to make such a lovely couple."
"Ah!" said the quartet.
"Uh, maybe Snubbull isn't getting lost after all." Misty said to the others. "Maybe she's just plain running away."
"Yeah." said Ash.
"Maybe she doesn't wanna get married to Winthrop and she's just trying to escape before the ceremony." Misty added.
"I don't blame her, Misty." said Jordan. "If I was doing that to Meeko or Pikachu, I better get a Thundershock by Pikachu and get tied to a chair with Meeko sitting on me."
"I really don't think that Snubbull likes all that smothering and pampering either." Brock chimed in.
"Uh…she doesn't exactly have a lot of freedom, does she?" asked Ash.
"No she doesn't." said Jordan.
"Riolu." said Meeko, shaking her head.
"Well, we certainly don't wait to be late to meet Snubbull's new husband." said Madame Muchmoney. "We'd both love it if you'd come to the wedding later."
Uh, okay." said Ash, Misty and Jordan.
"Oh, that's sounds really great." said Brock.
"What do you think we should do?" asked Ash.
"Run away?" Jordan said, bluntly.
"I don't know for sure but we gotta try to help Snubbull." said Brock.
Outside of the mansion and down the block, James was wrapping Meowth's tail. "Lets go, before this tail gets any more pathetic." said Meowth.
"Meowth, you're not the only one who deserves to have a happy ending." said Jessie.
"I agree, and the only way we're going to get it is if we activate our Snubbull stealing plan." said James.
"Hm, good idea, James, and I think I know just what to use for bait." Jessie said, looking right at Meowth.
"Ah, sounds kind of fishy to me." said Meowth.
"I'm sure you can tell by Snubbull's behavior we're just delighted to meet you." said Madame Muchmoney.
"I assure you; young Winthrop and I are equally delighted to meet you and your Snubbull." said Lady Snubbullfeller.
"I must admit that I've never seen such a distinguished and well-groomed groom." said Madame Muchmoney. Ash, Jordan, Misty and Brock watched the interaction from the bushes.
"You've obviously raised your Snubbull to be quite the charming young lady." commented Lady Snubbullfeller.
"They're absolutely perfect for each other!" sad Madame Muchmoney.
"I'm sure they're going to get along just beautifully." said Lady Snubbullfeller.
"Does your Winthrop have any interesting hobbies?" asked Madame Muchmoney.
"Winthrop likes nothing more than staying inside and sampling his store of gourmet bones." Lady Snubbullfeller tells her. "Isn't that right, Winthrop?"
"Snubbull." said Winthrop, chomping on his bone.
"I'm so pleased to hear that since my little Snubbull is so fond of fine food and indoor activities herself, aren't you darling?" Madame Muchmoney asked as Snubbull kept reaching for the outdoors.
"They're going to be so happy together." said Lady Snubbullfeller.
"I couldn't agree more." said Madame Muchmoney. Both women laughed as Brock glares at them.
"Enough is enough!" said Brock, popping out of the bushes.
"Oh!" said Lady Snubbullfeller.
"Hello, there!" said Madame Muchmoney. "Did you come to bring Snubbull her wedding gifts?"
"Maybe you ought to start thinking about your Snubbull once in a while!" Brock tells her.
"I am, dear. That's why I asked about her presents." said Madame Muchmoney.
"That's not what he's talking about." said Jordan.
"If you were really thinking about her you'd know that she doesn't want wedding presents especially since she doesn't want a wedding." said Misty.
"Hmm?" asked Lady Snubbullfeller, looking down at Winthrop while Madame Muchmoney looks down at Snubbull. "Hmph!"
"Ash?" Jordan asked her brother, causing him to turn his attention to her. "You, Misty and Brock better restrain me and Meeko before I lose my temper."
"You got it." said Ash, him taking Jordan while Brock picks Meeko up.
"She just wants room to be herself but she doesn't get it with you smothering her all the time." Brock explained to Madame Muchmoney.
"But, children, keeping her close and giving her everything is the best way to show her I care." said Madame Muchmoney.
"No its not!" said Ash.
"Take a look at her!" said Jordan. "She would rather be outside and in the dirt than be pampered all the time."
"Riolu!" said Meeko. Low and behold, Team Rocket came back and laughs at the Ketchum siblings.
"Tada!" said Jessie.
"Just what do you think you're doing?" asked Madame Muchmoney.
"Prepare for Snubbull trouble."
"Make it double trouble Snubbull."
"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!"
"Jessie!"
"James!"
"Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!" said Jessie.
"Surrender now or prepare to fight!" said James.
"Meowth, that's right!" said Meowth, hanging from a string "Is it too late to worm my way out of this one?"
"Snub! Snub!" giggled Snubbull.
"I would help you, Meowth, but I cant." said Jordan as Jessie and James lowered a whimpering Meowth. Snubbull wiggles its way out of Madame Muchmoney's arms.
"Whats the matter, Snubbull?" she asked as Snubbull leaps out of her arms and bites Meowth's tail, causing him to scream.
"You caught a Snubbull!" exclaimed Jessie.
"And a wide mouth Meowth!" said James, bringing Meowth back up.
"If I'd know I was the bait, I'd tried to get off the hook!" said Meowth as he and Snubbull were pulled up.
"Snubbull, come back, darling!" said Madame Muchmoney.
"Pika! Riol!"
"We finally caught one. That Snubbull's a real beaut." said Jessie.
"We better do something quick, Ash and Jordan!" said Misty.
"Don't worry, I'll handle this." said Ash.
"Oh, no, you won't!" said Jessie, sending out ankle cuffs that wrapped around the ankles.
"We figured you could always use another pair of cufflinks." said James.
"Sorry to break up the party." Jessie said.
"And the marriage." said James as they left.
"I'm in extreme pain here!" said Meowth.
"Come back!" Ash and Jordan called out to them.
"Snubbull!" said Madame Muchmoney.
Outside, police surrounded the area, looking for Snubbull. "I can't believe we're trapped in this crummy shed!" said Jessie, then turns to James. "I hope you're happy. Stuck on an estate surrounded by servants and enemies!"
"Actually, I am happy because it reminds me of my youth." said James, crossing his arms.
"This is no time for nostalgia." Jessie tells James. "Meowth, where did you park our getaway balloon?"
"Most of these rich people are so full of hot air I thought this would be a good place to have the balloon refilled, I'll see if it's ready." said Meowth.
"The balloon wasn't empty, but your head obviously was!" James yelled at Meowth.
"I've had about enough of your air-brained schemes!" shouted Jessie.
"Not exactly the sharpest tool in the shed, are you, Meowth?" asked James.
"Ahh!" said Meowth, when Snubbull appears in front of him.
"Snubb!" it said, angrily as it protects Meowth.
"Snubbull doesn't like it when you threaten me, see." said Meowth.
"Snubb." said Snubbull.
"I hate to say it, but I think Snubbull might really like Meowth." said Jessie.
"What's not to like?" asked Meowth, blushing a bit as he laughs while Snubbull looks at Meowth's tail again and bites it.
"Then again, actions speak louder than words." added Jessie as Meowth screams in pain.
"In that case, Snubbull just said a Meowth-ful." said James.
"What do I have to do to get some help around here?" Meowth asked, screaming in pain as he ran around with Snubbull on his tail and his cohorts relaxing, thinking that its love. "Quit yapping and get it off me!"
"There's no way they could've gotten away 'cause we've got the whole place surrounded." said Ash. "All we have to do is keep looking."
"They're probably hiding somewhere." said Misty.
"But where…" said Jordan.
"Hmm." said Brock. Just then, they heard Meowth screaming and they gasped.
"That answers my question." said Jordan. "Following the screams of Meowth."
Just before they could do that, Meowth runs out of the shed. "I cant take it anymore!" he shouted.
"Huh! There she is!" said Misty.
"My Snubbull!" said Madame Muchmoney.
"Meowth!" shouted Jessie.
"Get back in here!" shouted James.
"Ah-hah!" said Ash and Jordan.
"Huh?" said Jessie and James.
"There they are! Over here!" said an officer as they made their escape.
"Let's get out of here." Jessie and James said as they ran out of the shed.
"Come on out, Arbok. Go!" said Jessie.
"Chaaabok-bok!" said Arbok as it slams its tail against the officers faces.
"Go, Weezing!" said James.
"Weezing!" said Weezing and once again, releases its Smokescreen.
"Go, Heracross!" shouted Ash as the officers coughed behind him.
"Heracross!"
"Go, Raven!" shouted Jordan.
"Hoothoot!"
Just then, Heracross goes to some flowers for a snack. "Ahem!" said Jordan, glaring at Heracross as Ash falls, groaning.
"Hera?" asked Heracross.
"You're needed in a battle." said Jordan.
"You heard Jordan, Heracross, so stop that!" said Ash. "Quit snacking and start attacking!"
"You can have a snack break afterwards." said Jordan.
"Hoothoot!" said Raven, pecking Heracross' butt to get it moving.
"Hera!" shouted Heracross as it attacks Weezing.
"Heracross, use your Horn Attack now!" said Ash.
"Raven, use Supersonic!" said Jordan.
"Hoothoot!" shouted Raven, creating a sound wave.
"Heracross!" shouted Heracross, slamming its horn on Arbok, who was trying to cover its ears.
"Get this off of me!" shouted Meowth with Snubbull still holding on when Arbok landed on them.
"Snubbull." said Snubbull, getting out from under Arbok and bites it by the tail.
"AAAA!" screamed Arbok as Snubbull bit down hard. Jessie and James were terrified as they and Arbok ran with Snubbull clinging on tight.
"Oh! Stop behaving that way, Snubbull." said Madame Muchmoney. "You're going to get hurt! Stop it right now!"
"Good job, Snubbull! Keep it up!" cheered Brock.
"How could you?" asked Madame Muchmoney.
"You try it." he suggested. "Just tell your Snubbull to use her Tackle Attack."
"Huh?"
"Snub!" shouted Snubbull as it was thrown down by Arbok. "Snubbull! Snubbull!"
"Ta-Tackle Attack." stammered Madame Muchmoney and Snubbull tackles Arbok.
"Now we're getting somewhere!" said Brock.
"Alright!" said Ash.
"Okay, Arbok!" shouted Jessie. "Show them how to tackle, when you tackle it back!"
"Snubbull!" shouted Snubbull, getting tackled by Arbok, then glares at it. "Snubbull, Snubbull, Snubbull!"
"There's her Scary Face Attack!" said Brock.
"Snubbull!" said Snubbull, giving not only Arbok a good scare, but Jessie and James as well.
"I'd hate to have to face that!" said Misty.
"I don't blame you. Riol." said Jordan and Meeko.
"Togeprrii!" Togepi added.
"Snubbull!" said Snubbull, biting Arbok's tail.
"Snubbull's got a great Bite Attack!" said Ash.
"Pika!" cheered Pikachu.
Arbok runs back and forth, crying as it tries to get Snubbull off its tail. "I guess that was what you'd call a bite to the bitter end." said Meowth, soothing his aching tail.
"I'll take over from here." said James. "Go, Victreebel."
"Oh boy." said Jordan as Victreebel has James in its mouth.
"How many times have we been through this?" James asked Victreebel.
Snubbull then uses Tackle on Victreebel with James still instead. "Snubbull. I never knew you had so much extra energy!" said Madame Muchmoney as Snubbull bites Victreebel.
"That wasn't very dignified, was it?" asked Lady Snubbullfeller. Snubbull starts swinging Victreebel and James by its teeth, throwing them towards Jessie and Meowth.
"Stop right there! Catch them! Don't let them get away!" shouted the officers as they ran towards Team Rocket.
"Ee! Don't look now! They're after us!" said James.
"Hah! Just in time." said Jessie as their balloon comes down. "Run for it."
"Heracross, stop them with your Horn Attack now!" said Ash.
"Heracross!" said Heracross, using its Horn Attack.
"Raven, use your Peck on the Balloon!" said Jordan.
"Hoothoot!" said Raven. Heracross and Raven used their attacks.
"Looks like Team Rocket's flipping out again!" shouted Team Rocket.
"Great job!" said Ash, praising Snubbull.
"You really showed 'em." said Brock. "Way to go, Snubbull!"
"I'm so proud of my brave Snubbull." said Madame Muchmoney.
"Snubbull!" Snubbull said happily.
"I hope Snubbull wont be lonely now." said Madame Muchmoney. "I'd certainly hate to see her turn grumpy again when she realizes that Winthrop is gone."
"Something tells me that she would've been even grumpier if he had stayed." said Misty.
"She'll be okay by herself." said Ash.
"I have a feeling Snubbull was never all that lonely in the first place." said Brock.
"Must've been all that energy." said Jordan.
"You're right, now that I've seen her battle I know she can be very independent." said Madame Muchmoney. "From now on, I'm going to be less overprotective and let her lead a more normal life."
"Then I'm sure she'll be happy." said Brock. "Take care of yourself, Snubbull."
"Snubbull, Snubbull." Snubbull tells Brock.
"The new exercise yard is ready, madame." said Jeeves. "We've brought in the finest materials to recreate a look of nature, just for Snubbull."
"You see. Enjoy yourself." said Madame Muchmoney, placing Snubbull on the ground. "I'll be right here whenever you're ready to come back."
Excited, Snubbull starts running around the exercise yard. "I've got plenty of popcorn balls if you get hungry." Madame Muchmoney called out.
"I guess its tome we're out of here." said Brock.
"Good bye now, Snubbull!" said Ash.
"Good luck on the rest of your journey." said Madame Muchmoney as the quartet starts to leave.
"Thanks." they said, heading out of town.
"Thank you so much for everything you taught me about Snubbull." she said.
"Goodbye! Bye!"
Narrator: With our heroes' help, Snubbull's trainer is learning that her Pokémon's affection has to be earned by paying attention, not money. And so our friends are on their way again but may the only ones.
Jordan: I have a feeling that we'll be seeing Snubbull again in the near future.
Narrator: You don't mean…?
Meeko: Riol?
Jordan: Yep. Snubbull is off to find Meowth and his tail.
Narrator and Meeko starts laughing at this.
Narrator: I feel bad for Meowth.
Sniffing the ground, Snubbull was on the hunt for Meowth when it hits some vines, then imagines Meowth's tail. "Snub…" it said, interested when it looks over at Madame Muchmoney.
"Maybe we should've made it bigger, Jeeves." she said. "Lets draw up some plans for an expansion. We could put in a waterfall."
"Snubbull." said Snubbull, annoyed at Madame Muchmoney. It then sneaks out and runs after Meowth and Team Rocket.
"Snubbull!"
