Chapter 34: The Start of something New.

Jake was driving in his convertible down Kanto expressway, entering from Celadon City and heading toward Pewter City. His plan was to meet his pupil Ash Ketchum, whom he heard was heading back to Viridian City to battle for his last badge. "Alright, time to put the pedal to the metal!" Jake said, shifting into 4th Gear, and speeding down the overpass. His music played songs from the Protomen as he sped down.



Jake arrived on the outskirts of Pewter City going toward Mt. Moon. He jumped out of his car, and recalled it with its Item Ball, and walked up the trail. The sun was almost ready to set, surely Ash and his friends would be close to Pewter City by now. Continuing up the path, Jake spotted a blue-shirted trainer and walked up to him.
"Excuse me, have you seen Ash lately?" Jake asked the trainer.
"Ash? Huh! That loser. What would anyone want with him?" answered the trainer. Jake suddenly recognized the trainer, he met him in a Viridian City Hostel when he first started his Pokemon journey.
"Wait a minute..." Jake said. "You are Gary!"
"Yes. I. Am. Gary!" Gary responded, with a mocking tone.
"Ohho, well Ash isn't going to be a loser when I'm done with him!" said a certain Jake.
"Whatever." said Gary, who just walked off.

After continuing his walk for a few more minutes, Jake spotted Ash, Misty and Brock in the distance. "Hey! Ash!" shouted Jake.
"Wow! Look who it is!" said Misty.
"Jake!" said Ash.
"Pikachu!" said Ash's Pikachu.
"Jake, I never did get a chance to thank you for saving my life." said a grateful Ash.
"All was my duty." said Jake. "I care about your well-being as a trainer. I want to travel with you guys for awhile. I'm sure Ash could learn a lot from me."
"Uh, okay..." responded Ash, not knowing what else to say.
"Great, why don't you guys jump in?" Jake said, releasing his convertible from its Item Ball. "First, we're going to Pewter City."
"Why Pewter City?" asked Brock. "That's not where the last gym is."
"Remember the Four Stats?" asked Jake. "It's time we elaborate further on it. We're gonna run some tests." Ash, Misty and Brock entered the convertible, and Jake sped off towards Pewter City. Eventually, Jake pulled up to a Pokemon Center. "Lets go!" he said, and Ash, Misty and Brock followed him in.
Inside the Pokemon Center, Jake released his Porygon from its Poke Ball. "Porygon!" said Porygon.
"Alright Porygon, connect via USB!" commanded Jake. "Ash, put this on." jake handed Ash a brain-wire hat, which Ash put on over his head. "Now Porygon, Stat Scan!" Jake said.
"Porygon, Porygon." said Porygon. "Brrrrrrrrrrrrp...." "Stats Found."

- Fighters Promise - 3
- Psychic Ability - 1
- Awareness - 6
- Endurance - 6

"Wow, Fighters Promis of 3." said Jake. "The low Psychic ability is understandable. Everyone knows you're dumb as a rock." Jake insulted.
"Hey!" resented Ash.
"But its true." said Jake. "Everyone thought it was stupid of you to get rid of that Primeape."
"Ungh, Primeape?" Ash said, possibly remembering.
"Anyway, now, let me show you my stats." said Jake, grabbing the wire hat and putting it on his own head.

"Stats Found." said Porygon.

- Fighters Promise - 2
- Psychic Ability - 6
- Awareness - 3
- Endurance - 4

"Hmmm, Psychic Ability, 6?" Jake pondered.
"Hey, your Fighters Promise is lower than mine!" pointed out Ash.
"Yes, that's because I'm not even on a badge quest. All I'm doing is traveling with Pokemon." Jake explained, then a vision of Mewtwo's Psychic ability failing on him went through his head. "Well Ash, I think I good way to raise your Fighters Promise is to catch more Pokemon. Professor Oak told it to you once, you cannot be a good trainer if you don't catch Pokemon."
All of a sudden, the lights went off, and two laughing echoes appeared in the room.
"You've fallen for our trap!" said a female voice.
"And just before I snapped!" said a deep, masculine voice.
"I know those voices..." said Brock.
"Prepare for trouble!" said the female.
"And make it double." said the male.

To Protect the World from devastation.
To unite all peoples within our nation.
To denounce the evils of truth and love.
To extent our reach to the stars above.
Jessie.
James.
Team Rocket, blasts off at the speed of light.
Surrender now, or prepare to fight!


"Who are you guys?!" said Jake.
"We're hear to capture your Pikachu! Go Arbok!" shouted Jessie.
"Go Weezing!" said James.
"ChAAA-Bok!" said Arbok.
"Weezing, whee..." said Weezing.
"Go Beedrill!" said Jake, releasing Beedrill. "You too Porygon!"
"Bzzz-Drill!" said Beedrill.
"Porygon." said Porygon.
"Weezing, Smokescreen!" ordered James.
"Weeezing..." said Weezing, puffing out smoke.
"Porygon! Do something about the smokescreen!" Jake suggested.
"Porygon, Porygon!" Porygon shot at the computer with USB cords, plugged into the internet, and transfigured into a fan, which blowed the Smokescreen away. "Smoke, deleted." said a feminine voice coming from the computer, possibly coming from Porygon.
"Now, let's go Pikablu!" said Jake, tossing another Poke Ball from his belt.
"Pikablu!" said Pikablu, upon completing its energy transformation.
"Pikablu, finish them off with a Thunderbolt!" Jake commanded.
"Pika!" said Pikablu, cackling electricity with its cheeks and zapping Team Rocket, causing an explosion to send them away into the sky.
"Waaaah!" said Team Rocket.

We're Blasting off again! *ding*

"And there you have it!" said Jake. "Do you understand Ash?"
"Yes, I'll try to start capturing more Pokemon!" answered Ash.
"Good, then tomorrow we'll head for Viridian City." proposed Jake. "How about we start things off in the morning with a Pokemon Battle?"
"Alright, sounds good." responded Ash.
"Great, this is the start of something great." said Jake.
