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 doesn't 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: It's a beautiful moonlit night and our heroes find themselves in a lovely little place called Happy Town. Lucky for them.

Jordan: It's really lucky.

Meeko: Olu.

Narrator, smiling: They could use some cheering up!

"My feet are killing me." complained Brock.

"So are mine." said Ash. "And I'm starving."

"We're hungry and tired." said Misty and Jordan.

"I don't know about you guys, but if we don't find a place to stop pretty soon, I'm gonna collapse." said Brock.

"Toge Togeprii!" said Togepi.

"Pika.." said Pikachu, exhausted.

"Riol…." said Meeko, rubbing her eyes.

"Hey, look, guys," said Ash, looking up. "it's a Pokémon center. They'll have lots of food and soft beds."

"Yeah, and nice hot showers too." said Misty.

"Showers!" said Jordan.

"Riolu!" said Meeko. Ash tries opening the door, only to find it locked.

"Uh, I hate to tell you this, but I think it's closed." said Ash.

"Closed?" asked Brock.

"No way!" said Misty.

"No shower?" said Jordan, feeling disappointed.

"Hello in there." said Ash, knocking on the door. "Anybody home? Hey, Nurse Joy? Sure is funny, I wonder where she is. Anybody…"

Just then, the door swings open, knocking Ash to the ground as Chansey-like Pokémon appears. "Blissey." it said, then sees Ash on the ground.

"Oh, my head." said Ash.

"Blissey, Blissey." it said to Ash, sad as it apologizes to him.

"Oh, that's okay, Misty and Jordan are always telling me I have a thick head." Ash tells it.

"Blissey, Blissey." said the Chansey-like Pokémon.

"That's true." said Jordan. "I'm curious though, is that a new version of Chansey?"

"Sort of looks like a Chansey." said Misty.

"Yeah. But it definitely isn't one." said Brock.

"Well, let's see!" said Ash.

"Blissey, the Happiness Pokémon. It is kindhearted, and loves helping people. Blissey is the evolved form of Chansey." said Dexter.

"Cool!" said Jordan, her eyes widen in awe.

"Riol." said Meeko, wondering how Chansey evolves into Blissey.

"Ah, I should have guessed you were evolved from Chansey." said Brock, taking a closer look at Blissey. "The resemblance is striking. This hairdo is a very interesting choice."

"Blissey?" asked Blissey, confused by Brock's comment of its hairdo.

"Don't worry, Blissey." said Jordan as Blissey turns to her. "He just wants to feed his Nurse Joy obsession" Just then, Ash's stomach starts growling.

"Oh! My stomach's reminding me its empty." said Ash, grabbing his stomach.

"Blissey!" said Blissey. "Blissey, Blissey, Blissey!"

Blissey then leads the quartet to the lounge. "Hey, where are you taking me?" asked Ash.

"Blissey, Blissey!" Blissey tells Ash, then walks into the kitchen. "Blissey, Blissey."

"I wonder what Blissey's doing." said Ash.

"Yeah." said Misty.

"Blissey." Blissey said to itself as it was cooking. "Blissey, Blissey, Blissey."

"Whatever it is, it sure sounds happy." said Ash.

"Really happy." said Jordan.

"Pika." said Pikachu.

"It almost looks like…Aah!" said Brock.

"Aah!"

Blissey comes out with food trays stacked high. "Blissey!" it said, with food trays stacked high above its head.

"Look, Blissey made a ton of food for us." said Ash.

"It's just as I suspected." said Brock.

"Thank you, Blissey." said Jordan.

"Well, stop talking and start eating." said Misty.

"Pikachu! Riolu!" said Pikachu and Meeko.

"Togeprii!" squealed Togepi.

"Blissey! Blissey!" Blissey said as it walks over to the quartet.

"Well, take it easy, Blissey." gasped Ash.

"You don't want those trays to fall over." said Jordan.

"Yeah, you can't get too carried away when you're carrying trays." said Brock.

"Blissey! Blissey!" said Blissey, determined to give them food.

"Pika!" shouted Pikachu as he and the others ran from Blissey.

"Blissey, Blissey!"

"Come on, Blissey, if you don't slow down all that stuff is gonna…." Ash tried to tell Blissey when he suddenly tripped. "Aah!"

"Blissey! Blissey!

Proven that they were right, Blissey accidentally trips, causing the trays it was holding to fall all over Ash. "Well, Ash….." said Jordan, looking at the spilled food that was all over her brother. "I'm sorry that the food is all over you."

"Riolu." said Meeko, feeling bad for the eldest Ketchum.

"Don't worry about it, Blissey. It was an accident." Ash said, reassuring the Happiness Pokémon as it pushes him towards the bathroom. "I know you were trying to help. I'll eat after I wash up."

"Blissey, Blissey!" said Blissey, understanding that Ash wasn't mad.

Ash was in the bathroom, washing up when Blissey came inside. "Blissey, Blissey, Blissey, Blissey." it asked Ash.

"Oh, sure, Blissey." said Ash. "It'd be great if you could wash my back."

"Blissey, Blissey." Blissey said, nodding.

"It's been quite a while. I could use a good scrub." said Ash.

"Blissey." said Blissey, holding a long scrub brush in its hand and scrubs Ash's back roughly, causing him to scream.

"AAH!" Ash screamed.

"That back's really scrubbed." said Misty.

"And yet, it looks painful." said Jordan.

"Pika." squeaked Pikachu, concerned for Ash.

"Riol." said Meeko.

"Blissey." said Blissey, apologizing again for what happened. "Blissey, Blissey."

"I think Blissey's trying to tell you that its sorry." said Brock.

"Don't worry about it, Blissey." said Ash. "I know you didn't try to hurt me on purpose. Do you have something you can put on it?"

"Blissey!" it said, holding medicine in its hands. "Blissey, Blissey. Blissey!"

"Is that rubbing alcohol?" asked Ash.

"Looks like it." said Jordan.

"Riolu." said Meeko.

"When it hits those scratches." said Misty.

"Blissey." said Blissey, putting rubbing alcohol on Ash's back.

"AAH!" Ash screamed again.

"This is worse than what I did to you when I was two." said Jordan.

"Pika?" asked Pikachu.

"Riolu?" asked Meeko.

"According to mom, Ash was playing tickle monster and I accidentally scratched his cheek really hard." Jordan explained. "Ash cried really badly."

"You didn't mean too." said Brock.

"We know. Just don't tell anyone." said Jordan.

Yawning, Nurse Joy was in her pjs, walking down the hallway and pulls out her ear plugs. "I'll have to ask Blissey if anything happened while I was asleep." she said. "Oh, Blissey? Uh!"

Ash turns to face Nurse Joy, all wrapped in bandages from head to toe. "AAH!" she screamed. "I can't tell you, how sorry I am for all the trouble my Blissey's caused you, Ash."

"Blissey, Blissey." said Blissey, bowing to Ash.

"I just hope you can understand that Blissey only wants to help." said Nurse Joy.

"Well, you think Blissey could help a little less?" asked Ash.

"Yeah." said Misty and Jordan.

"I know how you must feel." said Nurse Joy. "But Blissey's heart's always in the right place."

"I'm a hundred percent on your side, Nurse Joy." said Brock. "I say, if Blissey's heart is in the right place who cares where anything else is."

"Huh?" she asked.

"And speaking of hearts being in the right place, I think you should know that my heart is in your hand." said Brock, taking her hand into his.

"Uh!" said Nurse Joy, feeling uncomfortable.

"Well, your heart may be in her hand but your ear and vest is in ours." said Misty as she, Meeko and Jordan dragged him away.

"Riolu." Meeko said.

"Control yourself, Loverboy." said Jordan as Ash laughs nervously on the bed.

"Anyway, I just want you to know that Blissey always tries very hard to be the best nurse it can be." Nurse Joy explained. "Isn't that right?"

"Blissey, Blissey." Blissey said with a smile.

That night, everyone but Ash was asleep. "Some night, I didn't do anything wrong and I still got sent to bed without supper." he said, staring at the ceiling.

"Will you stop complaining, Ash?" asked Misty. "Brock, Jordan and I are just as hungry as you are."

"That's right, so stop your grumbling and go to sleep, will ya?" asked Brock, peering from the top bunk.

"If you don't stop arguing, I'll smack all three of you!" growled Jordan, peering from the bunk she shared with Meeko, Pikachu and Togepi.

"Riolu!" added Meeko.

"Tell that to my stomach." said Ash as his stomach growled again.

Outside the Pokémon center, Team Rocket was in the bushes. "We've got to eat something soon." said Jessie.

"I can't even remember what food tastes like." James complained.

"There's got to be someplace with a chow nearby." said Meowth.

"I know, why don't we sneak into the local Pokémon center and pick up some Pokémon-to-go for the boss?" James asked. "And while we're at it, we can pick up a little dinner to go for the three of us."

"James, that's a great idea!" said Jessie.

"Let's do it!" said Meowth. Lights were off at the Pokémon center as Team Rocket breaks in from the floor.

"Huh? Hmm. Hm."

"Nothing." said James, after entering the kitchen with Jessie and opens the trash can lid. "They didn't even leave us one crummy crumb."

"No, we've been cheated, there aren't any leftovers left over." Jessie tells him.

"Hey, look what I got me." said Meowth, digging through the fridge. "This parsnip gave them the slip. Oh!"

Jessie and James chuckled as they took the parsnip out of Meowth's hand and placed it on the cutting board. "We'll divide it into three equal pieces." Jessie said with a knife in her hand.

"That's fair!" said James.

"Ah!"

"Meowth!" shouted Jessie as Meowth takes it from them.

"What's the big idea?" asked James.

"Sorry, guys, its finders eaters, losers weepers." Meowth tells them and runs off.

"You get back here!" Jessie called out after him, shoving James aside. "Now where did that rotten furball go?"

Just then, she hears footsteps approaching her. "Huh!" She then runs towards the footsteps.

"You're not going to get away from me you selfish little…!" she then shouted and stops in front of Blissey. "Uh! Aah!"

"Blissey!" it said, surprised to see Jessie inside the Pokémon center.

"Oh, no." said Jessie and turns back in the other direction.

"Blissey! Blissey!" Blissey said in delight as it rushes after a frightened Jessie, jumping on her.

"Hey, you get off me. Let me go!" said Jessie, looking up at Blissey.

"Blissey, Blissey!" it said, happy to see Jessie.

"Why are you so happy?" asked Jessie and takes a look at the necklace around its neck, especially the pendant. "Oh, it's been a long time. I always hoped I'd run into my old friend."

Jessie takes out the other half of the pendant. "Remember?"

"Blissey! Blissey!"

"Well, you finally made your dream come true, didn't you?" Jessie asked as she, James and Meowth sat down with Blissey.

"Blissey, Blissey." Blissey tells Jessie.

"Jessie, you two actually know one another?" asked James.

"As friends?" asked Meowth.

"Blissey, Blissey." answered Blissey, nodding as Jessie smiled.

"A long time ago." chuckled Jessie before staring off into space. "I was a simple yet exceedingly beautiful little girl with a dream."

[Flashback]

"I'm afraid becoming a Pokémon Nurse will be extremely hard for you." the man said to young Jessie at the desk. "We can't accept your application."

Young Jessie sighs at this, head hanging. "Pokémon Nurse School?" she asked, looking at the brochure on the counter. "Uh, I can learn to be a Pokémon Nurse here."

"Miss, that's no place for you." he tells her, causing Jessie to laugh.

"Don't you worry. I fit in anywhere." said Jessie, confidently.

At the Nursing School, Jessie was the only person besides the teacher, surrounded by Chansey. "With lots of hard work and proper study habits, I'm sure each and every one of you will become a competent Pokémon Nurse." said the teacher.

"Chansey!" said the Chansey.

"Jessie." Jessie said, feeling embarrassed that she said her name out loud. "Uh."

"Remember, you must always wrap a patient's bandages firmly yet gently." said the teacher as Jessie and the Chansey were working on bandage wrapping.

"That's not so hard." said Jessie, finishing up her bandaging on her practice Chansey when she looks over her shoulder. "Huh?"

"Chansey. Chansey." said Chasey, worriedly as the bandage was on the floor, on it and not wrapped around its practice patient.

"I'd be glad to give you a few pointers." Jessie said, walking over.

"Chansey?" it asked, surprised that she would help it. Jessie starts showing Chansey how it was done.

"There, nice and neat." Jessie said to the practice Chansey, before turning to Chansey. "Take your time and keep them tight, but not too tight."

"Chansey." it said, nodding.

"You can do it." said Jessie as she walks away.

"Chansey!" it said, grateful that Jessie helped it out.

"Mm-hm." the teacher said as she walks over to Chansey. "You're doing very well."

"Chansey, Chansey!" it said happily. In the cafeteria, all of the Chansey were talking with each other while Jessie ate alone. "Chansey." said Chansey, setting down a plate of Pokémon food beside her. "Chansey. Chansey."

"Oh, that's nice of you." Jessie said. "Why don't you join me?"

"Chansey!"

Excited that it was invited by its new friend, Chansey accidentally spills its drink on Jessie's head. "Ugh!" groaned Jessie

"Chansey." Chansey said, apologetically.

"Even though you paid for it, looks like this lunch is on me." Jessie said, giving Chansey a forgiving smile.

In the library, Chansey was reading a book, trying to make sense of it unknowingly that it had the book upside down. "Chansey, Chansey." it said, perplexed as it tries to read the book.

"It's easier this way." Jessie tells Chansey as she corrects the Pokémon.

"Chansey!" Chansey said and starts reading the book.

"Whenever a patient is restless, simply use your sing technique to make them fall asleep." said the teacher, then places headphones on her ears. "Class begin now."

"Chansey, Chansey, Chansey, Chansey." sang the Chansey, relaxing the Pokémon in front of them.

"Bellsprout." said Bellsprout, falling asleep. Jessie fell asleep on the bed next to Oddish.

"Chansey. Chansey." said Chasney, worried as it wakes Jessie up.

"Uh? Huh?" asked Jessie, waking up.

"One doesn't become a nurse by sleeping in class, Miss Jessie!" the teacher scolded her.

"I know, ma'am, I'm awfully sorry!" said Jessie, fearfully. Back in the dorm, Jessie slammed her palms into the floor.

"What does she expect from me?" she asked. "It's not my fault I'm not a Chansey."

"Chansey, Chansey, Chansey." Chansey said, comforting Jessie.

"I don't need you to comfort me." Jessie said, angrily pushing Chansey back.

"Chansey." Chansey said, sadly.

Jessie saw the sadness in her friend's eyes. "I'm sorry, you're the only one in this whole school who even cares about me." said Jessie. "I guess it's time I faced up to the facts. There's no way I'll become a Pokémon Nurse."

"Chansey." Chansey said to Jessie, giving her a hug.

Later, Chansey were lined up with candles in their hands, wearing nurses hats and wearing necklaces. "Chansey, Chan, Chan. Chansey, Chan, Chan." they sang as several Chansey was being presented their Nurses hat and necklace.

Behind the door, Jessie watches her friend graduate with a sadden look on her face. She turns and leaves Nursing school. "Chansey!" Chansey called out to Jessie.

"Huh?"

Jessie looks over her shoulder and sees Chansey run up to her. "Chansey?" Jessie asked, wondering what was wrong.

"Chansey!" it said, happily then hands her its Nurses hat. "Chansey."

"You want me to have your cap?" asked Jessie.

"Chansey, Chansey." it said, nodding.

"That's very, very nice of you, Chansey and I'll always remember you for it." Jessie said, placing the nurse's cap back on Chansey. "But no, you deserve it."

"Chansey?" it asked, sadly then came up with an idea. "Chansey."

Chansey broke the pendent it wore around its neck in half, giving the piece it broke off to Jessie. "Chansey!"

"Chansey, thanks so much." said Jessie. "Now, I'll always have a little part of you with me and you'll have a little part of me with you."

"Chansey." said Chansey.

"Goodbye." said Jessie and walks away from Chansey.

"Chan…" Chansey said as it watches Jessie leave.

[Flashback ends]

"I always knew that someday you'd evolve into a Blissey and become the kind of Pokémon Nurse I always wanted to be." Jessie said to Blissey.

"I have to admit, I'm very touched." said James, tears in his eyes.

"And he don't mean in the head." said a teary eyed Meowth. Suddenly, their stomach started growling.

"Huh?"

Blissey looks at Jessie as it hears her stomach. "Blissey." said Blissey, smiling at Jessie. "Blissey, Blissey." It then takes Team Rocket to the kitchen.

"Hey, where are we going, Blissey?" Jessie asked. "What's the big rush?"

"Blissey!" it tells her as Blissey takes them to the pantry. "Blissey, Blissey."

"Tell me I'm not dreaming." said Jessie.

"There's enough food here to give a Snorlax indigestion." said James.

"Blissey." Blissey said as it sets a couple boxes of food in front of Team Rocket, then brings another box.

"You aren't by any chance giving these boxes of food to us, are you?" asked Jessie.

"Blissey, Blissey." Blissey said, nodding. "Blissey!"

Using a wagon, Team Rocket takes the food to their balloon. "We'll never have to worry about food rationin' again." said Meowth.

"That's right, Meowth, now we can be completely irrational." said James.

"Well, I don't know, it seems like an awful lot for just the three of us to eat." said Jessie.

"Don't worry, I got nine lives." said Meowth. "And a stomach for everyone."

"Oh! That's funny." James said to Meowth. The next morning, the quartet wakes to a surprise.

"This is all there is for breakfast?" asked Ash, seeing what was on his plate.

"No way!" said Misty.

"Yeah…." said Jordan as the others gasped. "I need more than just this."

"What's wrong?" asked Nurse Joy as she walks over.

"Nurse Joy, I think Blissey's trying to tell us that this is the only thing that's left to eat in the whole Pokémon center." Ash explained.

"Blissey, Blissey." it said, hanging its head.

"Blissey, what about the food pantry?" Nurse Joy asked.

"Blissey, Blissey."

"Aah! I don't believe it!" said Nurse Joy, looking at the empty pantry. "The pantry was full yesterday."

"What happened to all the food?" asked Jordan.

"Somebody must have stolen everything." said Ash.

"Lets go to security." said Nurse Joy. "Maybe the camera can tell us who."

As Nurse Joy and the quartet watched the security tape, they see Blissey grabbing the food and handing it to Team Rocket off camera. "Looks like, our thief is Blissey." said Nurse Joy. "I cant believe you were behind this. What did you do with all that food?"

"Blissey." it said, guiltily.

"I could be wrong but…." said Jordan, looking closely at the security footage. "But the footage looks like even though Blissey is the thief, its happy about something or someone in the pantry with them. I could be wrong though."

"Blissey, if you tell me where the food is, maybe I can keep you out of trouble." Nurse Joy said to Blissey. "Blissey, listen to me. This could end your career as a Pokémon Nurse!"

"Poor Blissey." said Jessie, looking through the binoculars as she and the boys flew their Team Rocket Balloon. "I knew we shouldn't have taken all this food. I wish there was some way to help."

"Why don't we just bring the chow back?" asked Meowth.

"Because that wouldn't explain why Blissey gave the food to us in the first place." replied Jessie.

"Why don't we pretend that we tricked Blissey into giving us the food?" asked James.

"Another great idea!" said Meowth.

"That's two in a row." said Jessie. "But are you sure you don't mind helping?"

"Of course, not." said James. "One of your very-few friends is in trouble."

"We'll convince the twerps we pulled it off and enhance our criminal reputation." said Meowth.

Jessie nodded, beaming inside that James and Meowth would do this for her. Team Rocket then lands the food and their balloon on the ground in front of the Pokémon Center. "Oh, look, Jessie, we dropped all the food we stole from the Pokémon Center." James said into the Megaphone.

"What did you say? What's going on here?" asked Nurse Joy as she and the quartet ran out the doors.

"Prepare for trouble, you little nurse."

"You make it double; we'll make it worse."

"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.

"You again!" said Ash.

"They must be the ones who made Blissey steal all the food." said Nurse Joy.

"I think you're onto something, Jordan." said Brock.

"You did say that Blissey could have handed the food to someone or something in the pantry." said Misty.

"Right." said Jordan.

"Riol, Olu." said Meeko.

"Yeah, I kept hoping that it was a wild Pokémon too." Jordan tells Meeko.

"Well, James, it sounds like they figured everything out." said Jessie.

"Well that Blissey thinks its pretty smart but we tricked it into stealing for us anyway." said James.

"A devilish clever plan which we cannot reveal fooled the innocent Blissey." added Meowth.

"That's how it happened." gasped Nurse Joy.

"Yeah, Team Rocket's lying." Jordan said under her breath, marking her 98th tick in her notebook.

"What was that?" Jessie shouted.

"Just give us one second…then we'll have a battle." said Jordan and everyone gathered around the youngest Ketchum.

"How'd you know that Blissey gave the food to Team Rocket?" Brock quietly asking her.

"I doubt that Meowth is friends with Blissey. I'm guessing either Jessie or James is friends with Blissey long before it had evolved." said Jordan.

"This is why you're the best sister in the world." said Ash.

"And you're the best brother in the world." said Jordan as Ash turns back to Team Rocket.

"You caused a lot of trouble around here when you took that food." Ash said angrily. "Now give it back or else!"

"Ash doesn't usually get this angry." said Misty. "I always thought it was Jordan."

"Toge…prii!" said Togepi.

"Ash doesn't usually get this hungry." said Brock.

"He's hangry." said Jordan.

"Riolu." said Meeko.

"We'll make you a deal, if you want this food back all you have to do is hand over every single Pokémon in the Pokémon center." said Jessie.

"You know I cant do that." said Nurse Joy.

"Quit wasting everybody's time and give back that food you stole." demanded Ash. "We're hungry over here. We want to eat."

"You know that I'm a growing child!" shouted Jordan.

"Blissey!" said Blissey, appearing behind the door.

"You twerps can eat as much as you want as soon as you hand over those Pokémon." Jessie told them. "It's all up to you!"

"Blissey, Blissey!" Blissey said, seeing Jessie again and runs out of the Pokémon Center.

"Ash, Jordan, we cant." said Nurse Joy.

"Ugh!" growled Ash when suddenly Blissey runs past them. "Huh?"

"Blissey?" questioned Nurse Joy.

"Blissey, Blissey, Blissey." it said.

"Riolu, Olu, Riol." Meeko said to Jordan.

"I'll take that bet." said Jordan, shaking Meeko's paw as they watched Blissey run towards Team Rocket.

"Aah!" shouted Team Rocket, realizing their mistake as Blissey ran towards them.

"No, Blissey, stay away." Jessie told Blissey.

"Blissey?" Blissey asked, confused then kept walking towards Team Rocket. "Blissey, Blissey."

"Stay away, Blissey, you'll ruin everything." said Jessie. "Don't you understand, you're a nurse in a Pokémon center. I'm the beautiful yet evil member of Team Rocket. It'll look bad if you're friends with me."

"Blissey, Blissey." Blissey said, not caring about what Jessie had said out loud.

"Huh…we had Blissey down for being friends with James." said Jordan.

"Riol." Meeko said, nodding.

"You'll still get to taste test the next food." said Jordan.

"You don't care, do you?" Jessie asked Blissey, not hearing Jordan and Meeko in the background. She then starts to get angry and brings out her Pokéballs. "Lickitung! Arbok! I choose you!"

"Lick!"

"Chaa-bok!"

"Blissey, Blissey?" asked Blissey, staring at Lickitung and Arbok.

"Blissey's got itself into real trouble." said Misty.

"I don't understand it, you two, why would Blissey see Team Rocket again and act so happy?" Brock asked the girls.

"Blissey probably gave Team Rocket the food because they were hungry." Jordan said to Brock. "They're just saying that they took the food all by themselves because Jessie doesn't want Blissey to get in trouble."

"Well, I suppose you think you can catch Team Rocket all by yourself, Blissey." said Jessie. "Huh! We'll just have to relieve you of that delusion now, wont we?"

"Blissey." Blissey said, confused by Jessie's behavior.

"Oh! Oh!"

Jessie was struggling between trying to be nice to her friend and being loyal to Team Rocket. "Arbok and Lickitung!" she shouted. "Go show that conceited little Blissey we mean business!"

"Cha! Licki!" they both said as they headed for Blissey, knocking the Happiness Pokémon off its feet.

"Blissey! Blissey, Blissey!"

"Oh!" gasped Jessie as she sees Blissey on the ground. "That's not the way we planned it. Just pretend to attack Blissey."

"Called it." muttered Jordan.

"Good call." said Brock as they high-fived each other.

"Blissey. Blissey." said Blissey, standing up from the attack and still walks over to Team Rocket. "Blissey."

"This is awful, Blissey must be trying to make up for its mistake by fighting Team Rocket for that food." said Nurse Joy.

"Good for Blissey." said Ash.

"Stay back or they'll attack you again!" Jessie said to Blissey.

"Blissey. Blissey, Blissey." said Blissey, still walking to Jessie, James and Meowth.

"Lickitung, Slam Attack that Blissey!" Jessie shouted, then added. "Lightly."

"Licka!" said Lickitung, following what Jessie told it to do as it lifts Blissey up in the air, then gently sets it down on the ground.

"Riol?" asked Meeko.

"Pikachu." Pikachu replied, telling Meeko that it was new, even for him.

"Arbok, Bite Attack Blissey. Easy." said Jessie.

"Cha!" Arbok said, barely even giving Blissey a Bite.

"Well, I hope you've learned your lesson." Jessie said to Blissey. "That's what you get for threatening Team Rocket."

"Blissey." said Blissey, getting back on its feet. "Blissey, Blissey. Bliss."

"Ah! Blissey, no." said Jessie.

"Blissey…" Blissey said in a loving tone. "Blissey…"

"Blissey wont turn away from me." said Jessie, watching Blissey walk towards her. "If they find out, they'll never let poor Blissey be a Pokémon Nurse again."

"Blissey." Blissey said, lovingly.

Saddened, Jessie had to make a choice and used a small rocket launcher on Blissey to stop it from coming closer to her. "Blissey!" it said, getting knocked off its feet. "Blissey?"

"Take one step closed and next time I wont miss." Jessie warned Blissey, setting a boundary. "I thought you had guts, Twerp, but I guess you're gonna let this Blissey fight your battle for you and baby Twerp."

"What's the matter, don't you know how to lend a Pokémon a hand?" asked James.

"Then we'll give you two of 'em." said Meowth, laughing as he takes Pikachu.

"Pikachu!" shouted Ash.

"Pika-Pik!" Pikachu cried out as he struggles.

"If you don't do something quick, you'll lose your lunch and your Pikachu." said Jessie.

"Pika….Chu!" shouted Pikachu as he uses thunderbolt on the arms, causing Team Rocket to scream in pain.

"What a relief, they're finally fighting back." said Jessie.

"That was great, Pikachu!" said Ash.

"You're the coolest!" said Jordan.

"Riolu!" added Meeko.

"Pika!" Pikachu said, glaring at Team Rocket.

"Is everything okay with you, Blissey?" asked Ash.

"You're not in pain, right?" asked Jordan.

"Blissey!" said Blissey, reassuring everyone.

"I'm sorry, Blissey." said Nurse Joy. "Please forgive me for doubting you even for a minute."

"Blissey…" Blissey said, confused then looks over at Jessie.

"Shh!" said Jessie, telling it not to reveal their secret but Jordan notices.

"Blissey….." said Blissey, getting all teary-eyed.

"It'll be our secret, old friend." Jessie said in a low voice.

Just then, Ash's stomach loudly growls. "Aah!" he groaned. "I need that food 'cause I'm starving! Squirtle!"

"Squirtle, Squirtle!"

"Chikorita!"

"Chika!"

"We cant let Team Rocket take that food away." said Ash.

"Pika! Chika! Squirt!"

"That's the spirit." said Jessie, popping back onto her feet.

"Hit us with your best shots." said James.

"We're ready for action!" said Meowth.

"Where do you think they'll end up next?" asked Misty.

"Some place where they can get more ideas on how to get Pikachu back to their boss." said Jordan. "Maybe they'll even try to get Meeko."

"You got a hold of their boss?" asked Brock.

"Yeah…he's a nice man, at least he is when I spoke to him." she tells him.

"Go Arbok and Lickitung! Get 'em!" shouted Jessie.

"Chaa! Licki!"

"Use Thunderbolt Attack, Pikachu!" shouted Ash.

"Pika….Chu!" shouted Pikachu, releasing Thunderbolt from his body.

"CHAAA!" screamed Arbok, feeling Pikachu's Thunderbolt course through its body.

"Tung!" shouted Lickitung, going for the others.

"Use your Vine Whip, Chikorita!" said Ash.

"Chika!" shouted Chikorita, releasing her Vine Whip, grabbing Lickitung by its tongue and swings it around, before slamming it to the ground.

"Use your Water Gun now, Squirtle!" Ash said.

"Squirtle!" it shouted as it uses Water Gun on Team Rocket.

"Well, if that's the best you can do, we deserve the food." said Jessie.

"We hate to run, but its way past our mealtime." said James.

"Chikorita, use Razor Leaf attack!" shouted Ash.

"Chika! Chika-Chika!" she shouted, sending Razor Leaf towards the food and Team Rocket's balloon.

"He didn't have to be so nasty!" said Jessie.

"We're blasting off again!" shouted Team Rocket.

"We did it. We got all of the food back." said Ash as he hugs the food.

"For a minute there, I thought our gooses were cooked." said Brock.

"Speaking of cooked, when do we eat?" asked Misty.

"Pikachu. Riolu!" said Pikachu and Meeko.

"Togeprrii!"

"Yeah, I'm starving more than Ash is right now." said Jordan.

"No way, Jordan. I'm more starving than you are and I'm older." argued Ash.

"Blissey…." said Blissey, looking up at the sky as she remembers the necklace around its neck.

"Here comes the moment you've been waiting for, Ash and Jordan." said Misty.

"Finally!" said Jordan.

"Yeah, Blissey's cooking up something special!" said Ash.

"Pika!" said Pikachu.

"Olu!" added Meeko.

"Blissey, Blissey, Blissey." said Blissey, carrying once again, one too many trays.

"AAH! Hey, not again!" shouted Ash.

"Not round two." said Jordan.

"If Blissey doesn't take it easy we're gonna have egg on our face." said Brock.

When Blissey finally reaches the table, it carefully sets down the trays in front of everyone. "That was a close one. But Blissey came through." said Ash. "Let's dig in, guys!"

"Yeah! Alright!" they said and started eating.

"Blissey, Blissey." Blissey said to the quartet.

"Thanks, Blissey!" they said.

Narrator: After a heaping helping of excitement, our heroes finally get to feast.

Jordan: Don't forget, a bath and laundry too.

Meeko: Riolu!

Narrator: That's right. But a big meal wont lesson Ash and Jordan's appetites for adventure.

Jordan: That's true.

Narrator: An appetite that will serve him well in the upcoming Johto League.

Somewhere in the water, Jessie looks over the basket. "I'm glad we could help my friend Blissey out of a jam." she said. "You don't find a pal like that every day."

"No, and we don't seem to eat everyday either." said James.

"Speaking of jam, you wouldn't happen to have any, would ya?" asked Meowth.

"Or marmalade perhaps?" asked James.

"Jelly would be nice, maybe grape or apple." commented Meowth.
