Chapter 21 - Chapter 21: Mew Vs Misty And Free Cascade Badge

[Soon enough...]

(Misty and Mew are standing on platforms on opposite sides of the pool.)

Misty: "Alright Mew, we'll have a two on two Pokemon battle. The winner is when both Pokemon from either side are unable to battle."

(Misty says.)

Mew: "Okay. Your gym, your rules."

(Mew says.)

(Mew then turns to her Pokemon.)

Mew: "Eevee, how about you take the first battle?"

Eevee: "Eevee!" (My pleasure.)

(Eevee says, and hops on the platform.)

Misty: "Alright. Staryu, go!"

(Misty says, and throws her Pokeball.)

(Then Staryu comes out of the Pokeball.)

Mew: "A Staryu, huh?"

(Mew says, and brings out her Pokedex.)

(Dexter says.)

Dexter: "Staryu, the Star Shape Pokemon. A Water Type. The core of this Water Pokémon shines in a rainbow of seven colors, a core that is valued by some as a type of jewelry."

Mew: "Cool Pokemon Misty."

(Mew calls out.)

Misty: "Thanks, but we have a battle to do."

(Misty says.)

(At the stand, Violet asks.)

Violet: "Do you think Misty could really win?"

Lily: "Like in her dreams maybe."

(Lily says.)

Mew: "Okay Eevee, use Tackle."

(Mew calls out.)

(Eevee then performs Tackle as she jumps from one platform to another.)

(Then knock Staryu to the ground.)

(Misty calls out.)

Misty: "Staryu, counter attack!"

(Staryu then performs the same attack.)

Mew: "Eevee, dodge!"

(Mew says.)

(Eevee dodges the attack.)

(Staryu lands on the platform, and Eevee then tackles Staryu from behind.)

(Then tackles again.)

(Misty calls out.)

Misty: "Staryu, Water Gun!"

(Staryu jumps in the water and sprays Eevee.)

(Staryu performs multiple Water Guns, but Eevee dodges the attack.)

Mew: "Okay Eevee, use Swift!"

(Mew calls out.)

(Eevee then performs a Swift attack and it hits Staryu with full force.)

(Soon Seel begins to clap with glee.)

(Violet asks.)

Violet: "Which side are you clapping for?"

(Misty calls out.)

Misty: "Staryu, use tackle!"

Mew: "Use Tackle too, Eevee!"

(Mew calls out.)

(With that, both Pokemon begin to use tackle.)

(Of course, Staryu bounces in and out of the water while Eevee bounces on the platforms floating on the water.)

(Misty then says with confidence.)

Misty: "If Staryu can get Eevee underwater, I win! Water Pokemon always have the edge in the water!"

(Then laughs with confidence.)

(Mew feels a bit well, uncomfortable about Misty's confidence.)

(At the stand, Daisy says.)

Daisy: "Misty's totally awesome."

Lily: "Well, we three got the good looks in the family so I guess she had to get some talent."

(Lily says.)

(Staryu is able to strike at Eevee and she falls into the water.)

(Luckily, Eevee is able to swim in the water and swims back to the Platform.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Alright Eevee, return here."

Eevee: "Eevee." (Okay.)

(Eevee says.)

(She then jumps on the platform until she is on the same one Mew is.)

(Mew then brings out her Pokeball.)

Mew: "Pidgeotto, I choose you!"

(Then Pidgeotto comes out of it.)

(Misty then calls back her Pokemon.)

Misty: "Staryu, return!"

(She brings out another Pokeball.)

Misty: "I choose Starmie!"

(The Pokemon comes out almost like Staryu, but has another five sets of points, and has a pinkish red color gem, and it's the color violet.)

Mew: "Starmie, huh. That's the evolved form of Staryu."

(Mew says.)

(Then holds her Pokedex, and Dexter says.)

Dexter: "Starmie, the Mysterious Pokemon. A Water Type. And the evolved form of Staryu. Its sparkling core is called "the gem of the sea". This core can be made into high-priced accessories that are traded in secret."

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Pidgeotto, whirlwind it away!"

(Pidgeotto does just that and Starmie tries to stand its ground.)

(Misty calls out.)

Misty: "Dive under than up!"

(Starmie dives under the water.)

(Then jumps out of the water and tackles Pidgeotto.)

(It spins around and is coming back.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Strike it back with Wing Attack!"

(Pidgeotto then strikes at Starmie with Wing Attack, and throws it back.)

(Starmie suddenly spins back and tackles Pidgeotto.)

(Pidgeotto spins and flies away then maneuvers for another attack.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Pidgeotto quick, use your Gust attack!"

(Pidgeotto then performs Gust Attack, and it's enough to push Starmie away and slams to the wall.)

(Starmie then falls to the ground.)

Misty: "Starmie,

(Misty says, concerned.)

[Suddenly...]

(the gem on Starmie begins to flash.)

(Misty says.)

Misty: "Oh, no, Starmie's energy is just about to run out!"

Mew: "Okay Pidgeotto, let's finish this."

(Mew says.)

[Suddenly...]

(they hear an explosion, followed by rumbling, making the building shake.)

(Everyone turns their attention to the wall that begins to crack and then bursts out to reveal a green machine with a giant gray hose.)

Violet: Check out that hair!"

(Violet asks.)

(Daisy then asks.)

Daisy: "Like, who invited the party crashers?"

(Suddenly, Team Rocket rises from inside the machine.)

Jessie: Sorry to break in on you, ladies.

James: Allow us to introduce ourselves.

Jessie: To protect the world from devastation.

James: To unite all peoples within our nation.

Jessie: To denounce the evils of truth and love.

James: To extend our reach to the stars above.

Jessie: Jessie.

James: James.

Jessie: Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of light!

James: Surrender now, or prepare to fight!

(Suddenly, Meowth lands in front of his teammates.)

Meowth: Meowth! That's right!

Misty and Mew: "Team Rocket!"

(Misty and Mew exclaim.)

(James says.)

James: "The water Pokemon have the advantage."

Jessie: "But if we steal that water away."

(Jessie says.)

James: "Then the Pokemon are ours for the taking!"

(James says.)

(Meowth says.)

Meowth: "And Meowth knows just how to do it!"

Violet: "What are they trying to prove?"

(Violet asks.)

[Just then...]

(the giant machine and hose begin to suck up the water.)

(Mew looks at the machine.)

Mew: "A massive vacuum and a giant hose…"

(Mew gasps.)

Mew: "Team Rocket were the robbers who broke into that store back there! I should've known it was them!"

(Daisy says, distressed.)

Daisy: "Our swimming pool!"

Misty: "They're sucking it dry!"

(Misty says, shocked.)

(Lily says.)

Lily: "That's our water!"

Meowth: "Right! I should give it back."

(Meowth says, then reverse the flow of the water and at the girls.)

(Misty cries out.)

Misty: "We've gotta protect the Pokemon!"

Violet: "Like, what about my hair?!"

(Violet cries out.)

Meowth: "All right! Now's the time to suck 'em up!"

(Meowth says.)

(Meowth puts the vacuum back in forward and starts sucking up the water and all the Pokemon trapped in it.)

(Seel cries out.)

Seel: "Seel!" (Help!)

Violet: "Come back, Seel!"

(Violet cries out.)

[Suddenly...]

(Pikachu and Eevee are swept away in the water.)

(Mew cries out.)

Mew: "Pikachu! Eevee!"

(Pikachu and Eevee continue to be pulled into the machine.)

(Suddenly Mew has an idea.)

Mew: "Hey, wait a second! Water conducts electricity! Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"

Pikachu: "Pikachu!" (I'm on it!)

(Pikachu says.)

(Then let out a thunderbolt.)

(Team Rocket screams in agony as they are being shocked by the Thunderbolt.)

(Then the bad guys become paralyzed.)

James: "It's times like these that make me want to go straight!"

(James says.)

(Then they all fall into the water.)

James: "Now I know how it feels to be all washed up!"

(James says, paralyzed.)

(Then Jessie says.)

Jessie: "We'll never come clean!"

[Soon...]

(Team Rocket is sucked into the machine and comes out through the other end.)

(And as usual, they are sent flying.)

(Finally, Team Rocket screams.)

Team Rocket: "Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again!"

(In the gym, Pikachu and Eevee continue to be pulled in by the hose.)

(Daisy worriedly says.)

Daisy: "Oh no!"

Misty: "Pikachu! Eevee!

(Misty panics.)

(Mew runs around the pool as fast as she can to turn off the machine.)

(Pikachu and Eevee are soon sucked down into the water and pulled into the hose.)

(Mew quickly reaches the machine and climbs on it.)

(She jumps to the switch and screams.)

Mew: "No!"

(Finally, she pulls the switch down, causing the machine to reverse.)

(Pikachu and Eevee fly out.)

(Pikachu lands in Daisy's arms while Eevee lands in Lily's.)

(After that, they see the damage has been done to the gym.)

(Misty says to Mew.)

Misty: "Hey, we never got to finish our match."

Mew: "Yeah. Our battle ended up washed up."

(Mew says.)

(Then Violet says.)

Violet: "You could say your match had to be postponed, like, due to drain."

Lily: "At least nobody lost."

(Lily says.)

(But Misty says.)

Misty: "I wanted to win."

Mew: "I guess I'm not gonna get that Cascade Badge."

(Mew says, feeling a bit disappointed.)

(But Daisy says.)

Daisy: "Wrong. We're giving this badge to you."

(Then presents her the badge.)

(Mew becomes confused.)

(Misty then asks.)

Misty: "How come she gets the badge? She didn't win!"

Daisy: "Pikachu was, like, the one who totally saved us all. And if she used Pikachu from the start, there's no way your water Pokemon would have won."

(Daisy says.)

Misty: "Oh, man!"

(Misty says, disappointed.)

Daisy: "Take the badge, Mew. You deserve it."

(Daisy says.)

Mew: "Are you sure?"

(Mew asks.)

Daisy: "I'm sure,"

(Daisy says.)

Mew: "Um, thank you."

(Mew says.)

[Later on...]

(Mew and Misty are ready to set off on their journey.)

(Lily says to Misty.)

Lily: "Misty, you just go right on trying to become a Pokemon trainer. You might as well be good at something cause you'll never be stars like us."

Misty: "You keep that up and you'll be seeing stars!"

(Misty angrily yells.)

(Violet calmly says.)

Violet: "Chill out, Misty!"

Daisy: "Be careful! You know we love you."

(Daisy says.)

(Misty smiles and says.)

Misty: "Yeah."

Brock: "Hey Mew!"

(Brock's voice calls out.)

(The girls turn their heads to see Brock running to them.)

Mew: "Hi Brock,"

(Mew says.)

(Brock then asks.)

Brock: "How did it go?"

Mew: "I got the Cascade Badge."

(Mew says, showing it to Brock.)

Brock: "Cool, let's go!"

(Brock says.)

Mew: "Right,"

(Mew says.)

(Then turns to Misty.)

Mew: "Ready Misty?"

Misty: "Sure. Let's go."

(Misty says.)

(With that, Mew, Misty, Brock, Pikachu, and Eevee walk away.)

(With that, Mew and Misty explain to Brock about their match and how Team Rocket end up disturbing it because of their schemes.)

(Anyway, Mew ends up with the Cascade Badge and so they all continue on with their journey.)
