Ash, Brock, and Misty were on their way to Olivine City when they saw a Pokemon village nearby and decided to go stay at the village for a while until they were ready to leave for Olivine City. Meanwhile, Team Rocket were above a ledge overlooking the Johto region. Wonder where they're headed? asked Meowth It's obvious they're headed to the Pokemon village. Which means there's sure to be plenty of nyasi pokemon for us to get our hands on. alisema Jessie Wobbuffet! alisema Wobbuffet, finally popping out of its Pokeball at the last dakika (At the Pokemon Village) Hello. What brings wewe here? asked Melanie We were passing through and we just so happened to come across your village. alisema Ash Well, in that case, how does a little lunch sound to wewe and your Pokemon? I'm sure wewe must be hungry. alisema Melanie Yes. I am. I'm hungry for your love. alisema Brock, getting the wrong idea and flirting with her until his stomach growled. On sekunde thought, some lunch wouldn't be a bad idea. alisema Brock Great. I'll go inside and make wewe all something and then after, i can onyesha wewe the Pokemon. alisema Melanie Great! alisema Ash in excitement (After lunch) Oh how cute. alisema Misty, getting ready to pet the wild Chikorita on the belly until it swung its leaf on its head in defense Oh i'm so sorry. I forgot to mention Chikorita doesn't like having its belly petted kwa anyone who it thinks are strangers. alisema Melanie Oh. I wasn't aware. alisema Misty It's quite alright. alisema Melanie (Later that night) When Brock, Melanie, Ash, and Misty were all asleep, Team Rocket got to work using a mechanical Venusaur to capture Melanie's nyasi Pokemon. They caught her nyasi Pokemon off guard and her nyasi Pokemon tried to run to inform Melanie there were thieves outside but were snagged kwa a net that dragged them up towards the mecha where they disappeared before being trapped in a glass cage. As soon Melanie, Brock, Ash, and Misty realized this, they woke up and arrived outside to see the Venusaur mecha with Melanie's Pokemon inside the glass cage. Give me back my Pokemon! shouted Melanie I'm afraid we can't do that. replied Jessie As soon as we're through with you, we'll be taking your nyasi Pokemon with us to give to our boss. replied James wewe aren't going anywhere with them. Not as long i have anything to say about it. replied Melanie That's right. She's not about to let wewe take her nyasi Pokemon. added Ash, stepping mbele Out of our way, twerp unless wewe want us to steal your Pikachu along with these nyasi Pokemon. snapped Jessie You're not stealing my Pikachu. replied Ash Too late. We're still going to anyways. replied Jessie A mechanical vine swung mbele and grabbed Pikachu, placing it in the glass cage along with the nyasi Pokemon. Melanie stood there motionless, worried about her Pokemon until Ash encouraged her to get her Pokemon to slam against the glass holding cage. She agreed and finally took his advice. Before long, all her nyasi Pokemon slammed against the glass holding cage repeatedly. Even Pikachu pitched in and helped them to get free. Heracross. Help them out. replied Ash, sending Heracross in (The inayofuata morning) I can't thank wewe three enough for rescuing my nyasi Pokemon from those thieves. alisema Melanie My pleasure. alisema Brock, flirting with her one last time before being dragged away from her kwa Misty. Goodbye and thanks for everything. alisema Melanie, with her Rattata, Paras, and Caterpie down kwa her feet and her Chikorita in her arms. I wonder why that Chikorita wouldn't let me pet its belly. alisema Misty during their walk to Olivine City When a Pokemon like Chikorita feels as if you're a stranger, then that's a sign its body language is "hey i don't want to be petted right now". alisema Brock Melanie seems to be able to hold it with no problem. alisema Misty That's because Chikorita has known Melanie the longest and is used to her. alisema Brock With that, they headed on to Olivine City.
