Kanto Saga
Chapter 18
Do Magnemite Dream of Electric Pokémon!?
After having Ash's and Makoto's Butterfrees leave the group to go back to their own kind, our Heroes Continued on to Route 10 and on their way to Celadon City which suddenly starts becoming cold and Misty the following morning as the fog begins to come closer and closer making if difficult to see which out light Usagi, Chibiusa and Minako start complaining as Raichu starts looking unwell all this sudden as Pikachu starts to worry.
"It's too foggy to see anything." Usagi said
"Are you sure we should start ahead this early, Minako?" Ash said
"Yeah." Minako said "As they say the early bird gets the worm and I do not want to eat worms."
"Guys, there should be a Pokémon Center nearby that we could get breakfast at and heal our Pokémon." Ami said
"Pika Pika!"
"Rai..."
Ash and Makoto sees the that Raichu is feeling unwell.
"Oh no Raichu, What's wrong?!" Makoto asked
Raichu starts falling over and Pikachu, Ash and Makoto catches her but they both end up getting shocked immediately by Raichu and Pikachu as a mysterious Pokemon watches the gang from afar then Ami lead the way as Makoto puts on her gloves protect herself, our heroes rush to the Pokemon Center to heal Raichu and their Pokémon.
"Pikachu!"
"Don't worry Raichu, we'll get you all healed up!" Ash said
"Hang In there Raichu!" Makoto said "We're taking you to the Pokémon Center next to the entrance to the Rock Tunnel!"
"Hurry everyone, Raichu is starting to fade fast!" Ami said "If we don't then Raichu might fall unconscious."
As our heroes rush into the Pokemon Center, Meowth watches them from the sewers through a periscope and at first they start complaining that they lost the gang, but they found them once more.
"I've confirmed it." Meowth said "They've entered the Pokémon Center!"
"To protect the world from devastation." Said Jessie
"To unite all peoples within our nation..." James said
However, before Jessie and James can finish their motto, the overpowering smell of the sewers they and Meowth are in gets to them and the duo forgot to put on the suits to protect them from the smell of the Sewers
"What is that smell?" Jessie asked "This is ridiculous!"
The duo putted on the diving suits Meowth got for them and setted up and electric pump so they can breathe and they are both greatful.
"The Fresh air will be sent to you via the electric pump." Meowth said
James and Jessie complained to Meowth "If you've prepared this sort of crap, say so sooner!" They both said
"Ok, Ok, stop complaining and dive into the water already." Meowth said "From there, you'll sneak into the Pokémon Center, you know the rest right?"
"Stop screwing around!" Jessie snapped "What's with the damn attitude?!"
"We're the lovely, Charming villains." James said "Even of it's to capture a Pikachu and now a Raichu as well that's the few top priority! And plus how is the water so clean and how can we get through that damn fog?!"
Before Jessie was about to complain with James some more Meowth pushes a button in his sub it causes Jessie and James to get electrocuted and he gives Jessie and James the bird As a result, Jessie and James enter the sewer against their will and they spot some piles of dry Ice is what's causing the fog to come outside.
Ami, Makoto, Naru, Chibiusa, Rei, Minako, Ash, Pikachu, Luna, Artemis and Usagi all arrive at the Pokémon Center and they went inside to heal up Raichu and Ash rings the bell for Nurse Joy and then Nurse Joy comes out yawning.
"What in the world are you all doing in this early of morning?" Nurse Joy asked "and coming from the fog that's outside?"
"It's My Raichu!" Makoto said "She's not feeling well, it's an emergency!"
"It seems like you're Raichu's discharging more then usual, she has a very bad cold." Joy said "If you leave her with me for 3 hours it will be healed up in no time."
"A cold?" Makoto said
"And you all could use a visit to the Pokémon Center Cafe in the meantime." Nurse Joy added "You all look like haven't had any breakfast yet."
"Good thing too." Usagi said "because I'm starved."
Makoto handed her Raichu to Nurse Joy and she placed her to a hospital cart and the Gang headed over to the Pokémon Center Cafe to get some breakfast.
Outside, in the waters, a bunch of purple sludge creatures emerge. Creatures that are actually, Grimer. And without hesitation, the Grimer swarm into a water entrance. Turns out, the entrance actually is the water intake valve for the hydroelectric power plant that gives The Route 10's Pokémon Center electricity. With the Grimer blocking the water intake, the generators lose power as the Pokémon Center as well. The Power Plant workers starts to panic.
Meanwhile, down in the sewers, the generator Meowth set up shuts down due to the Grimer jamming the intake valve. Meowth starts panicking that the Generator stopped working as Jessie and James would run about of air and will die.
"Hey! What's going on?! The power supply just went dead!" Meowth screamed "If the pumps stop working, there's no air."
Back at the Pokemon Center, the power outage is revealed to have shut down the intensive care unit, where multiple Pokemon are kept, including a Growlithe, a Spearow, and a Sandshrew, just when our heroes were finishing their breakfast and hanging out then they find out as they rush inside.
"What happened with these Pokémon?!" Ash asked
"They're in the middle of treatment." Nurse Joy explained "If the power isn't restored soon, they would die!"
"Chaa!!"
"What the hell?! That's not good!" Makoto said
"We've gotta do something, and fast!" Rei shouted
Chibiusa then looked at Growlithe sadly as she is more worried "Poor Growlithe..."
"Seems like she's worried about that Growlithe, but we need to focus on getting the power back up." Naru said "What should we do?"
Minako got out her PokéDex and analyzed it which said "Growlithe, the Puppy Pokemon. Growlithe has a brave and loyal personality. It can take on any opponent, and then scares them off with its bark and bite."
"Yeah, if we don't do something, all the Pokémon will.." Minako said
"Everyone, I really don't think casting Nurse Joy is going to help." Ami said "Something must be really going on at the nearby Kanto Power Plant."
"Right, Ami!" Ash said "Come on, everyone!"
"Pika!"
"Raaaiiichu."
"Raichu, You stay here and get a good rest!" Makoto said "We'll be back soon."
"Everyone, please do your best." Nurse Joy said
Our heroes rush out of the Pokémon Center and it's still foggy outside stopped upon a big water stream which the other side leads to the Kanto Region Power Plant with a tall chimney.
"Crap, looks like there's no way across." Rei said
"Girls, I have a Lapras that can help us get across." Ami said "But we have to take turns because she can hold 3 people at a time."
"Good idea, Ami." Ash said "who's up first because Ladies first."
"Ashy, you're such a gentleman." Makoto said
"I think Me, Rei and Mako should go first." Usagi said
"It's a lot better than sinking like the Titanic or a boat with a hole in it." Minako joked
"Minako!" Everyone shouted
"I was only joking..." Minako whined
Suddenly the gang heard something from the bushes and everyone stood their guard and Usagi, Chibiusa and Minako feared that something bad is coming as they feared for the worst but it was Makoto's Raichu who is 80% better and everyone was relieved, Raichu still wanted to go with the group regardless and she still loves Ash's Pikachu, and they ran up to her.
"Raichu!" Makoto said "Raichu, I told you to rest at the Pokémon Center, didn't i? you're not fully healed yet."
"Chuu.."
"Pikachu."
"You don't want to wait at the Center?" Makoto asked
"Mabye Raichu thought it was being left behind?" Usagi asked
"Hmmm..." Ash said
"Just think about it, Mako. Raichu's afraid we'll leave and we won't come back." Ami assured as Raichu nodded
"Pi Pikachu.."
"Rai Raichu!"
"And also Raichu doesn't want to leave Pikachu's side." Rei said
"And besides Raichu's mind is made up." Ash said
"Pretty please?" Asked Chibusa
Makoto looked at Raichu and her friends and Ash who she has been holding hands with lately she can see that her Pokémon doesn't want to be left alone and she a deep breath and with a smile she spoke.
"Well... Ok, Raichu." Makoto accepted "You can come with us. But since you're almost better, you gotta take it easy."
"Yeah, so if you feel a bit uneasy again you can hold my Pikachu's hand." Ash said
"Pikachu."
"Raichu!"
Raichu happily jumps into Makoto's arms, but only for Ash, Usagi, Rei, Minako, Chibiusa and Naru to get shocked by Raichu as they screamed an pain. Ami, Pikachu, Luna and Artemis covered their eyes and got of the way just in time as the same Pokemon from before watches from afar.
Meanwhile, Team Rocket has returned to the surface after their failed mission for fresh air and Jessie and James gasped for fresh air and Meowth is relieved that they are still alive as even though the three are goofballs they are best friends deep down.
"I thought I was going to die." Jessie said
"A power outage so suddenly?" James said
"But Eather way, you do care, Meowth!" Jessie and James cried while hugging the talking Pokémon while bursting into tears and crying "Thank you, Thank you, thank you!"
Suddenly they trio's hug fest comes to an sudden stop when they spot our heroes crossing the river with Ami's Lapras to the power plant with Ash leading the way while in a fog.
"You what they say: 'Nurse clothes calls into chances of a lifetime!'" Meowth said "With the Power out and us placing the Dry Ice in the sewers to make fog to stop the twerps, now's our chance to get Pikachu!"
"Come on!" Jessie complained "Let us rest some more, will ya?! The main reason why we placed the Dry Ice in there is to make fake fog for the twerps to get confused!"
"Whatever." Meowth smiled "This time we've got an awesome secret weapon, so it'll be fine!"
Meanwhile, our heroes have arrived at the power plant and inside it was pitch black and the gang enters the plant, but it seems to be deserted and find the Central Control room and find what is the cause of the sudden fog since the morning and Ash sent out his Shiny Charmander to have light for our heroes. Ami, ChibiUsa, Minako, Makoto, Rei and Usagi transform before they all went in and Naru didn't look.
"This is the power plant." Ash said
"Everyone before we all start looking, I think that some Creatures called, Grimer and they swarm into a water entrance. Turns out, the entrance actually is the water intake valve for the hydroelectric power plant." Sailor Mercury said while getting her PokéDex/Supercomputer. "That's the main reason why the Pokémon Center's power has gone out."
"Ami's right!" Ash said "Let's head in and turn the Power back on before the Pokémon in the Pokémon Center could die!"
"Excuse us! Is anyone here?" Sailor Moon called
"This place is empty, by the looks of it." Sailor Jupiter said
"If no one's here, we might as well look around, huh?" Sailor Mars said
"Pika."
"Raiii.."
Charmander illuminated the area, but there was no one in sight in front or around them and they came across a map guide to the Power plant and the yellow dot is at the entrance that says 'You are here.'
"Ok, everyone." Sailor Mercury said "We're right here at the lobby, the Central Control room is at the 2nd floor of the Power Plant, unfortunately the elevator is down so the stairs are at the end of the main hallway so that is our best option. And the hallway is split into two section so we have to split up into groups of 4."
"Chaa.."
"Good, Me, Sailor Mercury, Sailor Venus and Sailor Chibi Moon will go one way." Ash planned as he handed Sailor Jupiter the flashlight "Sailor Moon. You, Sailor Mars, Sailor Jupiter and Naru go another way, ok?"
"Right!" Everyone said
"Pika!"
"Raaiii.."
The two groups split up into two different hallways with Sailor Jupiter guided group one with her flashlight and group two Sailor Mercury and Ash's Shiny Charmander guided the group with Sailor Mercury's Visior that can glow in the dark as well as her PokéDex/Supercomputer and The flame on Charmander's tail as the Mysterious Pokémon watches over them once more.
At group one Sailor Jupiter lead the group to a way to the stairs due to the hallways being split when Naru spoke nervously.
"Guys, Something's really weird." Naru said "Why isn't anybody working here?"
"Raichu?"
"If we reach the end of the hallway we'll find stairs to the 2nd floor for the Central Control room." Sailor Mars smoothed
As group one walk on, something follows them, as evidenced by Sailor Moon feeling something behind her she hid behind Sailor Mars like a frightened kitten. As Artemis is frightened as well and jumped onto Naru's arms.
"Something's following us." Sailor Moon stuttered
"M-Meow." Artemis meowed
"Artemis, watch where you're jumping on!" Naru complained "and try not to land on my boobs."
Sailor Jupiter looked behind her with a fearless anger look to see that there's no one there.
"What?" Sailor Jupiter asked "Someone can't be following us."
"I thought I hear something back there." Sailor Moon whined
"Don't be such a chicken, Sailor Moon." Sailor Mars said "Last time I saw you chicken is where you and SailorVenus are afraid of a Gasly."
"Hey, I'm not being a chicken!" Sailor Moon yelled while sticking her tounge at Sailor Mars "at least I wasn't listening to Michael Jackson while in hotel rooms."
"What?!" Sailor Mars yelled back "How dare you mock me for liking Michael's music, Bun head!"
"Ok, Girls let's break it up." Sailor Jupiter smoothed "Let's get to the second floor and get this Mysterious fog out of here."
Back with Group two Sailor Mercury lead the way with Sailor Venus is being held Bridal style which made her happy when Sailor Chibi Moon asks Ash a question.
"Hey, Ash how come your strong enough to pick up the Sailor Guardians?" Sailor Chibi Moon asked
"Well, you see Chibiusa." Ash said while his cheeks are flushing red "I was training with Mako and I suddenly have the strength to pick you up, including Minako."
"Ah, so you have a habit of lifting girls off their feet, huh?" Luna teased
"Luna! Just because I have the strength to pick you girls up doesn't mean you get to.." Ash shouted
"Ok, Ok, I was just joking." Luna smoothed "Therefore no need to get all defensive about it."
"Luna's right, Ash. It's ok for you to pick us up off our feet" Sailor Mercury smiled "Besides we really like it when you do so and you like it when Mako picks you up as well. anyways let's get going, we shouldn't be too far from the end of the hallway."
And group one Continues to walk forward as they do a sudden fog then comes by the distance as they cannot see anything.
"Why is the fog inside!?" Chibiusa complained
"I can't see!" Sailor Venus whined
"Sailor Mercury, can you find out where that fog is coming from?" Luna asked
Sailor Mercury then analyzed the distance and It was a box of Dry Ice and a bucket of water meaning that someone placed a Block of Dry Ice in the bucket and it causes the hallway to be foggy the Gang rushed over there and Ash sees that it is indeed Dry Ice.
"Dry Ice?" Sailor Mercury asked "Why would someone put dry ice in the water to create fake fog?"
"Mabye they didn't want us to be here." Chibiusa said
"Chaaa..."
"The box says 'Property of Team Rocket.'" Sailor Mercury said "Let's tell the others what's going on. Come on!"
"Right!" Ash, Sailor Venus, Chibiusa and Luna said
"Pikachu!"
"Damn it! I can't believe those three idiots tried to pull a stupid prank like that on us!" Ash cursed
Group one then continued on as Sailor Mercury informed the others what's going on that it was Team Rocket who set up the Dry Ice to stop them and Sailor Jupiter was annoyed that Team Rocket would pull such a prank on them and both groups met up by the end of the hall and they all head upstairs and made their way to the Central Control room.
"We should stick together everyone." Sailor Mercury said "We're almost there, and I think that Team Rocket put another pair of Dry Ice in the sewer that's coming out of the manhole."
"That explains why it's so foggy this morning and foggy now." sighed Sailor Mars
Our heroes carried on a Pokémon that had been stalking the gang appeared behind of Sailor Venus as she feels very frightened as Sailor Moon then she spoke to the group.
"Everyone, S-Something is following us!" Sailor Venus said as Artemis jumped on Sailor Venus' arms
The gang turns around behind them to see that no one is there meaning they think Sailor Venus is seeing things.
"There's nobody here." Ash said "Minako, are you sure that you're not imagining it?"
"I'm not!" Sailor Venus snapped them stook her tongue at Ash when whined "I'm certain I felt something here."
"You're feeling that because you're thinking of how scary it is." Sailor Mars said "You're just as Chicken as Usagi, and you and Usagi got no spine when things turn out like this."
"What the hell was that?!" Sailor Moon and Sailor Venus cried now sounding angry "We're not chicken! There really was something here, we mean it!"
"Everyone, please!" Sailor Mercury shouted then whisper "Please use your indoor voice, the sooner we find a way to turn the power back on the sooner..."
But before Sailor Mercury can finish, she and some of the gang sees the shape as familiar, are spooked by a sudden shape appearing near Ash and behind Sailor Jupiter.
"What's going guys?" Ash asked
"And again with the 'The floating object'?" Sailor Jupiter asked
"Ashy, Mako." Sailor Moon shivered
"There's something..." Sailor Venus whined
"...Behind you two." Sailor Mars said
Ash and Sailor Jupiter turns around, but the form is gone and finally Ash and Sailor Jupiter has had enough of whoever is trying to play cruel tricks on the gang and they both shouted, losing their patience.
"Ok, that's it!!" Ash snapped "Who's there!? If you're out there, the come the hell out and show yourself right now!! We just had about enough of you're pranks!!"
"That's right!!" Sailor Jupiter roared "If anybody's there, you can come on out! And if you're a ghost or a monster, you can get the hell over, here where you are and tell us why you're pranking us and we won't bother you anymore!!"
Just before Sailor Mercury was about to scold Ash and Sailor Jupiter for shouting very loudly, the thing that was following our heroes soon appears behind Pikachu, frightening him and the others save for Sailor Mercury and Luna jumped on Sailor Moon's arms and Artemis Jumped into Sailor Venus' arms.
"Pika! Pika!"
"Rai! Raichu!"
Pikachu and Raichu got the gang's attention and they turned around they see what's going on, spooking them more Sailor Jupiter hugged Ash as she held him close. Our heroes, save for Sailor Mercury, backed into a wall and tremble in fear.
"W-What the hell is that thing?!" Ash trembled as his head is in Sailor Jupiter's pink bow and between her big breasts
"I-I-I don't know!" Sailor Jupiter said "Hang onto me and don't let go!"
"What is that thing?!" Sailor Mars shivered "What is it?"
The shape comes out of the shadows from Pikachu and Raichu to reveal a Pokemon known as Magnemite everyone was Surprised.
"Magnemite?" Everyone said
"Could it be a Pokémon?" Ash said getting out his PokéDex
Ash analyzed the Magnemite with his PokéDex and it says: "Magnemite, the magnet Pokémon. It moves about by floating in the air, but anything concerning its structure is unknown. An Electric type Pokémon of many mysteries."
"It looks so cute." Sailor Mercury awed sweetly "It's ok everyone, there's nothing to be afraid of."
"Sure, but what's a Pokemon like that doing here?" Ash asked the bluenette
"I think it's trying to warn us about the Grimer." Sailor Mercury said kindly "aren't you little one?"
"That's right, there's no way this little one could be responsible for the blackout." Sailor Chibi Moon said "A whole swarm of Magnemite could do it, but not just one."
"Hey, Ashy." Sailor Jupiter smiled "Let's see if you or I could catch it and check it out for the time being.."
"Hold on, Mako." Ash said "That Magnemite doesn't look like it wants to battle."
Ash was right, as Magnemite circle around Pikachu as Raichu begins to get jealous shouts at Magnemite to stop, and Ash shook his head and Sailor Jupiter is now puzzled.
"Why the hell is it circling Pikachu?" Ash said shaking his head "and it seems like You're Raichu is getting Jealous, Mako."
"I think it's circling around Raichu as well, Ashy." Sailor Moon said "and it doesn't look like it's doing anything bad too."
"Chaaa..."
"Raaiiichu."
When sparks fly from Raichu's cheeks, the Magnemite blushes at her and Pikachu is now Jealous that Magnemite is attracted to Makoto's Raichu as he yells at Magnemite to stop.
"Ooohhh..." Sailor Mars said teasingly "The Magnemite's cheeks are blushing redder than a traffic light, it means it's in love with your Raichu, Mako."
"Aaand It's following her." Naru sighed
"And Pikachu is Jealous." Ash said
"I could understand it if it was an animal Pokémon." Sailor Mercury wondered "But can it be normal that a Pokémon like Magnemite fall in love with an electric mouse like Raichu?"
Magnemite starts following Raichu about as Pikachu chases after Magnemite to get it to stop stalking Raichu as he continues to shout at it more out of Jealousy.
"Come on!" Sailor Jupiter pouted "It's following my Raichu, she's not interested, she's only interested in Ash's Pikachu!"
"Mabye it wants Raichu to have it know what love truly feels like." Sailor Venus giggled "It's like killing two birds with one stone!"
"Minako, please stop the bad puns." Ash asked then turns crossly at Magnemite. "Hey, Magnemite, Raichu isn't interested in you and only likes my Pikachu! So stop making him Jealous!"
"And stop stalking my Raichu!" Sailor Jupiter angrily snapped
Sailor Jupiter's and Ash's yelling caused Magnemite stops following Raichu and goes a different direction meaning something is coming then Raichu hid behind Sailor Jupiter. But Sailor Venus glared at the two for yelling at a Magnemite.
"Shame on you two!" Sailor Venus glared "Yelling at a poor defenseless little Magnemite when it's falling in love with.."
Before Sailor Venus could finish they heard something coming from the ceiling air vent Sailor Mercury analyzed it which her visor then as soon as they know it a ceiling vent grate falls and two purple sludge blobs fall after, two Grimer.
"Ew!" Sailor Mars complained "What are those things?!"
"It stinks!" Naru cried
"Everyone, stand your guard we got some Grimer is coming from above the Ceiling vent!" Sailor Mercury said
Ash analyzed the Grimer with his PokéDex and it reads: "Grimer, the sludge Pokémon. Being Pokémon born from sludge, they specialize in the sludge attack." Then Ash turned to the gang.
"Magnemite left because of these Grimer, not because of me and Mako yelling at it!" Ash said covering his nose
"Is this what sludge smells like? It really stinks!" Sailor Chibi Moon said holding her nose
"Chibiusa!" Sailor Mercury said scoldingly "We shouldn't say anything that would hurt their self-esteem and make them angry."
"I'm sorry, Grimer!" Sailor Chibi Moon apologized
"Yeah, she didn't mean to say that!" Ash chimed in "we don't want any trouble.."
Sailor Mars had lost it and lashed out at the Grimer because she cannot stand it's smell and is freaking out.
"Trying to reasoning with it won't help!!" Sailor Mars screamed covering her nose "They still stink!!"
"REI, NO!!" Everyone shouted
The comment that Sailor Mars made has made All the Grimer offended and angry at the gang which causes a Muk, Grimer's evolved form to come out from behind and it was not happy. Everyone was horrified and Sailor Mars knew she messed up big time.
"Don't look now guys, but there's an even bigger sludge Pokemon right behind that Grimer army!" Naru screeched
"It's huge!" Ash said
"Everyone, that Muk in the back is the Grimers' leader and it's very upset!" Sailor Mercury gulped
"Now you've done it Rei!" Sailor Jupiter glared at her
"I'm sorry!" Sailor Mars screeched
Ash got out his PokéDex once more and analyzed the Muk from behind the Grimer and it reads: "Muk, the sludge Pokémon and the evolved form of Grimer. Caution should be taken due to it's oozing body being full of toxins." Our heroes start looking worried as they back away from the Sludge Pokémon.
"It's becoming more troublesome." Sailor Venus said "Hasn't the smell become beyond terrible?!"
"Pika."
"Raichu!"
Sailor Mercury tried to reason with the Muk, but it wouldn't listen so by Muk's command The Grimer army charges as our heroes panic and run screaming as they make their way to the Central Control Room as the Grimer gang and Muk chases them in hot pursuit, not wanting them to get away, Sailor Jupiter calls out Sailor Mars for opening her mouth and making the Grimer and Muk mad and soon, our heroes run into someone and it was one of the 2 Power plant workers.
"W-W-Who are you people?" asked Worker 1
"I'm Ash Ketchum.." Ash introduced and before he could finish Sailor Moon chimed in.
"Uh Ash, I don't want to interrupt the introductions, but we gotta get out of here!" Sailor Moon shouted "we've got an army of Grimer on our tail!"
"They're coming!" Sailor Jupiter shouted
"The Grimer are here, too!" shouted Worker 1
"Chaa!!"
"Rai!!!"
Then Sure enough, the Grimer army rounds the corner Everyone runs right behind the workers in order to escape the Grimer army as Ash picked up Sailor Mercury and held her bridal style as he has another vision of the Silver Millennium as he shakes his head to snap himself out of it until Finally, our heroes reach the control room and close the door.
"Damn!" Ash cursed while breathing heavily as his head is in pain. "I had that vision again! Why do I keep having them?!"
"Ash, please settle down." Sailor Mercury said while placing her hand on Ash's to clam him down. "When you picked me up I had a feeling of it too. But eather way, we're safe for now. We're going to find out about the reason behind those visions later down the line."
The gang didn't know that Growlithe had followed Sailor Venus, who was hiding undercover She nodiced him and asks him why is he following them and Sailor Jupiter shouted.
"Hey, What the hell is going on here?!" Sailor Jupiter shouted "The Pokémon Center's in trouble because of the power outage!"
"If the Pokémon Center doesn't get any power, lots of Pokémon are going to die!" Sailor Mars snapped "and we found what's the cause of the mysterious fog, it was dried ice that Team Rocket planted in the sewer!"
Back at the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy keeps watch over the Pokemon and hoping that the gang gets gonna get the power back on real soon.
Back at the plant Ash finally snaps out of the Daydream as he puts the Visions he had about Silver Millennium aside for now and sees Sailor Mars and Sailor Jupiter telling them about the Power Outage as Sailor Chibi Moon and Naru trying to hold the door shut so the Grimer Gang doesn't get in. As they ram the door.
"Please generate the Power!" Sailor Jupiter said now begging
"We don't want the Pokémon to die!" Sailor Mars begged
"You see, a mass outbreak of the Grimer is clogging up the seawater intake value." said Worker 1
"If we don't boil seawater to revolve the turbine, it won't generate electricity." said Worker 2
"There must be something we can do to help you guys out." Ash said
"I'm afraid that's easy to say. We've been trying to.." Worker 2 said
"I knew it!" Sailor Mercury thought
Before he can finish the door that Naru and Sailor Chibi Moon were trying to hold off the Grimer as they start using tackle on the door trying to get our heroes, one by one, the Grimer ram the door in order to enter the room as our heroes help reinforce the door as Pikachu held e door fermly and Raichu tried to help. Unfortunately the Grimer manage to break the door down and enter the room and they stared down at everyone.
"Oh no! They got in!" Sailor Mercury cried
"Everyone l, if you're aspiring Pokémon trainers, then do something about these things with your Pokémon!" said worker 1
"That's right, if they can be driven away, we can generate the power!" said worker 2
"How can you say that when Raichu's not feeling well?!" Sailor Jupiter shouted "She couldn't take on some many Grimer like this at once."
"And I don't even have a Pokémon!" Sailor Chibi Moon said
Pikachu then used Iron tail to help the gang as one of the Grimer backed away then the Sailor Guardians sent out their Pokémon except for Sailor Jupiter as her Raichu stepped forward and Naru sent her shiny Eevee out then as Vaporeon, Flareon, Clefairy and Eevee came out Sailor Chibi Moon got her moon rod.
"Raichu, Please!" Sailor Jupiter said "Don't push yourself when you're in this condition."
Then she sees Raichu refusing to step down as she wants to fight and Ash's Pikachu ran to her side after giving another Grimer an Iron Tail
"Pikachu, I'm counting on you." Ash said
"Ok Raichu, you win." Sailor Jupiter sighed "Ok, Use Thunderbolt!"
"You too, Pikachu!"
"Pikaaa..."
"Raiii..."
"CHU!!!"
"Vaporeon, Hydro Pump!" Sailor Mercury Commanded
"Flareon, flamethrower!" Sailor Mars commanded
"Eevee, Swift!" Sailor Venus commend
"Clefairy swift!" Sailor Moon Commanded
"Eevee use swift!" Naru commanded
"Pink Sugar Heart Attack!" Sailor Chibi Moon shouted launching her attack
The Gang's Pokémon attack the Grimer one by one and just as they're seeming that all hope is lost and the Muk has won, through the ventilation shaft, Magnemite and several Magneton arrive and defend our heroes and our heroes were Suprised.
"Oh my god." Sailor Venus said
"Could they be?.." Sailor Moon said
"Yes everyone, the Magnemite and their evolved form, Magneton! They're friends of the one little Magnemite that was warning us earlier!" Sailor Mercury said with joy "and now they're all here to help us!"
As the Magnemite and Magneton use Thundershock, Pikachu and Raichu gathered enough courage and unleashed the strongest Thunderbolt she could hold, shocking all the Grimer, which caused them to flee, while outside, the same thing happened with the Grimer blocking the sea water intake. And with the blockage removed, the generator starts up again and the mysterious fog from outside disappears and Route 10 is clear again and the Pokémon Center's power is back on.
"The hum of a generator starting up. Sweet music to my ears." Naru said
"We did it! The power's back on!" Sailor Mars said
"Yay and the lights, too!" Ash cheered
"And the Pokémon Center's power is back on too!" Sailor Jupiter said "Oh yeah!"
"The turbine's moving!" said Worker 1
"The Grimer have all cleared away from the sea water intake valve!" said Worker 2
Sailor Jupiter sees that Raichu is all better and is overjoyed.
"Raichu, you're all better!" Sailor Jupiter cried happily as she threw her arms around her electric type Pokémon "I guess all those Magnemite and Magneton's thunder shocks cured you, huh?"
"Rai, Rai."
"Everyone, I don't want to interrupt our victory but Muk is still standing." Sailor Mercury pointed out
Sure enough, the Muk that led the Grimer army still stood and refused to back down. Then Sailor Jupiter's Raichu stood by Pikachu's side once more
"Ok, Ash let's both take him down." Sailor Jupiter said with determination in her eyes
"Ok, Mako." Ash said to the Tall busty Brunette then turned to Pikachu "Pikachu.."
"Raichu..." Sailor Jupiter said
"Thunderbolt!" The both commanded
"Pikaaa.."
"Raiii..."
"CHUU..."
Both of their The attack lands, but Muk proves to be resilient which causes both Magnemite and Magneton to step in and uses thunderbolt on Muk and white Pikachu's Raichu's, Magnemite's and Magneton's thunderbolts combined the Muk then collapses and faints with a slump which gives Ash a chance to catch it he turns his hat backwards.
"Pokéball, Go!" Ash called
Ash then threw the PokéBall at Muk and it opens up and went inside and after 3 wobbles and shakes, a ping is heard with 3 stars glowing. Meaning, Muk was captured Ash picked up the PokéBall containing Muk and held it up high.
"Yes! I caught a Muk!" Ash cried while in his signature pose "Since the Generator's fixed too, I have no complaints."
Sailor Jupiter suddenly caught a Magneton and she held the Great Ball up high.
"And I also got a Magneton!" Sailor Jupiter said while doing a victory pose
"Pi Pikachu!"
"Rai Raichu!"
Ash then Looked confused and turned to Sailor Jupiter and looked at her dumbfoundingly
"Mako, when did you caught a Magneton?" Ash asked "you're pose is looking good."
"Well, right after you caught Muk." Sailor Jupiter said "and Thank you, Ash!"
Everyone then heads outside, where the gang sees the Mysterious fog has disappeared and then Ash airs out the Pokeball, without releasing Muk, due to the smell and Ami, Makoto, Minako, Rei, Chibiusa and Usagi are back to their normal selves and Ash's Shiny Charmander was recalled.
"Damn!" Ash said covering his nose "The smell comes through the Pokeball!"
"I'm certain that you'll get used to the smell." Makoto laughed jokingly
"Well, one thing's for sure Mako's Raichu is completely recovered." Rei said
"That's right." Usagi agreed "Even though it was affected by a cold earlier."
"Well you know what they say: "When you're heart is broken stink up while you can.'" Minako said which everyone looked at her dumbfoundingly
"When electric Pokémon build up too much power their charged body becomes an electromagnetic." Ami said "and there are times when they look like they're affected by a cold."
"Pikachu."
"Raichu."
"We sure did get lucky during this incident." Ash said "and we all sure owe a big thank you to Magnemite, here. Don't we?"
Magnemite lowers to Pikachu's level, but as Pikachu and Raichu starts to thank Magnemite, it moves away from him and it circles Naru a little as it likes her now as she starts to freak out a little.
"Uh Magnemite, I know we wanted to thank you for helping us, but can you please not circle me?" Naru asked
"Naru, I think Magnemite likes you." Ash said "and it wants to go with you."
"But..." Naru hesitated
"It really likes you, Naru." Chibiusa insisted "I know you're nervous about it but you'll have an electric type Pokémon on you're side like Mako and Ash."
Naru looked at Chibiusa and Magnemite and she took a deep breath and a smile she then nodded she got out her empty Pokéball and Magnemite pressed the Button on it and it went inside and the PokéBall pinged meaning Naru caught Magnemite.
"Magnemite, welcome to the team." Naru said softly
"You now got an electric type on you're team!" Usagi cheered
"That must be the reason. Animals are attracted to other animals by scent, so Magnemite are attracted to other Pokemon by their magnetic force." Worker 2 pointed out "Because Raichu had built up so much magnetic force, it must've been very attracted to that Magnemite. And now it's attracted to this young lady over here."
"Aww, You are all too much." Naru blushed happily
"Pikachu."
"Raaai."
"Raichu stopped emitting electricity and is no longer electromagnetic it lost interest and it went to Naru to join her." Ami pointed out "and on top of all that, the Mysterious Fog coming from the Dried Ice in the sewers has disappeared."
"You hear that, Raichu?" Makoto smiled "Now you won't be chased around anymore."
"Rai Raichu!"
"Pikachu."
Meanwhile From under the water, Team Rocket spots our heroes through a periscope and are in rage that their plan didn't work since their Dried Ice is gone.
"DAMNIT!!" Meowth cursed "They foiled our plans once again!!"
"But at least we got a giant Magnet to capture Pikachu and now Raichu." James said looking on the bright side
After Calming down Meowth got back on the peddles and Team Rocket's Gyarados submarine rises from the polluted water with a giant magnet attached to it.
"Now, on to plan B, with our new secret weapon! Tell them, James!" Jessie said
"Now that the Electricity-emitting Raichu and Pikachu emitted enough to become a magnet." James said "we make a powerful electromagnet react to them."
"It's the 'Let's suck them up' plan!" They both said
"Who the hell you guys are talking to?!" Meowth asked "The readers?!"
"What did we tell you about breaking the forth wall, Meowth?" The both asked
James then presses a button and activates the magnet but instead of Pikachu and Raichu getting sucked into it some Magneton get pulled in by it and then multiple Magneton get attracted to Team Rocket's magnet, unbeknownst to them Jessie, James and Meowth gulped, and more and more Magneton get attracted to Team Rocket's magnet, until their sub immediately sinks.
"Damn, Damn!" Team Rocket cired "Team Rocket's splashing off again!"
Soon, our heroes arrive back at the Pokemon Center and they see that all of the Pokémon from the Center is all better and Ash is wanting to call his mother to tell her that where he and the girls are and Ami delivered the news.
"All the Grimer that covered up the seawater intake value are now gone and the Mysterious Fog was all caused by Dry Ice set up by Team Rocket." Ami said while carrying a box of Dry Ice
"Thank you everyone." Officer Jenny thanked "We'll do everything we can to make sure that the ocean is really clean again. and that horrible prank will never happen again."
"Yeah, because Team Rocket are always up to no good." Ash Said
"Thank you, Ash." Joy thanked "You and your friends worked so hard to make sure all these Pokemon survive, you've inspired me to become a diligent nurse."
"We salute all of you." Officer Jenny saluted
"Aw, it was nothing." Ash blushed
"We are very happy to help." Rei said
Then Growlth turned to Minako and looked at her with his beautiful eyes as he wants to go with her on the quest.
"Minako, I noticed Growlithe here has taken an interest in you, I get the feeling it likes you." Nurse Joy said
"Ok, Growlth." Minako smiled then opens her arms "You can come with me now bring it here!"
Growlithe leaped into Minako's arms and began licking her in affection, Minako smiled in surprise, that she dropped her empty Friend Ball, Growlithe saw it fall, touched it with its nose, entered, and was instantly caught after the ping as she held her Freind Ball.
"You are all heading to Celadon City for the fourth gym?" Nurse Joy asked
"Yeah, We were about to head there until there was a Rock Tunnel nearby." Ash answered
"Wow, it sure is dark in the Rock Tunnel and so much that you might all get lost if you're not careful." Officer Jenny said
"The Route 10 Pokémon Center has a shop at the top floor if you all want to buy some gear to help you all cross the Rock Tunnel." Nurse Joy insisted
"Thank you very much Nurse Joy." Ami thanked them turned to the gang "everyone, let's head in so we can get the equitment we need. Like Ropes and cave light hamlets to see in the dark. And call Delia to tell her where we are before we go."
"Right!" Ash and the girls agreed
"Well I must be on my way back to my post." Officer Jenny waved goodbye "farewell everyone."
As our heroes head in the Pokémon Center to get the equipment they need to surpass the Rock Tunnel with big smiles and even bigger hopes, for a future that's cleaner, and greener, than before. Then 3 mysterious Sailor Guardians stood on top of a mountain and looked at our heroes and smiled who are these mysterious Guardians though? And can our heroes surpass the Rock tunnel to make it to Ash's 4th Gym Match? Find out as the Journey Continues!
