Chapter 50 - Chapter 50: Mew Get Fever And Magikarp Evolved Into Gyarados

(Just then, Mew and the others rise to the surface and take deep breaths from being underwater for so long.)

Misty: "That was too close for comfort."

(Misty says.)

Mew: "At least we made it out of the ship before it sank."

(Mew says.)

Pikachu: "Pika," (No kidding.)

(Pikachu says, tiredly.)

Eevee: "Eevee." (That wasn't fun.)

(Eevee tiredly says.)

[A little later...]

(Mew and her friends use the leftover wood and other materials still floating to make a raft for them.)

Gary: "Now that we're out of the ship and build a raft, we just need to find land."

(Gary says.)

(Mew looks around.)

Mew: "Yeah. From the looks of it, there's nothing but ocean in every direction. It will be hard for us to tell which way to land."

(Luckily, Gary has an idea.)

Gary: "I know We can use a Flying Pokemon to find land. They can bring back a branch from their direction and we'll know which way we need to go."

Mew: "Good idea,"

(Mew says.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Pidgeotto, go!"

Gary: "Go Fearow!"

(Gary calls out.)

(Pidgeotto comes out.)

(And Gary's Pokemon is a large, mostly brown avian Pokémon with a vulturine neck and broad, powerful wings.)

(It has a long, pointed, pink beak and a decorative red coxcomb on top of its head.)

(Its narrow eyes have very small pupils, shaggy feathers at the base of its neck and covers the upper portion of its wings, and feathers are cream-colored, as are the tips of its flight feathers.)

(Its sharp-clawed talons are pink, with three toes pointing forward and one pointing backward.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Pidgeotto! Fearow! Please, bring back whatever you find!"

(Pidgeotto and Fearow nod their heads and fly off in separate directions so they can cover some ground.)

(Mew worriedly says.)

Mew: "Please come back safely!"

(Pidgeotto and Fearow fly in different directions and hope to find land so their trainers can reach safety.)

(Back on the raft, The group waits patiently for the flying Pokemon to return.)

Misty: "They sure are gone for a while."

(Misty says.)

Brock: "We just need to wait a little longer. I'm sure they'll find something."

(Brock says.)

Gary: "Yeah. Still, the sooner they find something, the sooner we can find land."

(Gary says.)

Mew: "I know we will. Like Brock said, we do need to give them a little more time, I'm sure they'll find it."

(Mew says, but the group senses something off.)

(The group turns their heads to notice Mew cheeks are looking a bit red, and feeling a bit dizzy.)

Gary: "Mew, are you feeling okay?"

(Gary asks.)

Mew: "Maybe a little funny, my head feels a bit warm and feeling a bit dizzy."

(Mew answers.)

(Misty walks to Mew as the girl sits down and kneels down to her.)

(Then uses her hand to touch her forehead.)

(She gasps.)

Misty: "Mew, you're developing a fever!"

Brock: "What?"

(Brock asks, shocked.)

(Gary and Brock hurry toward the girls to see that Mew isn't feeling well.)

(Pikachu and Eevee soon grow worried.)

Mew: "I'm… I'm okay… I just need a little rest."

(Mew says, feeling dizzy and on the verge of collapsing.)

(Gary catches Mew and then lays her down.)

(Misty panics.)

Misty: "Oh, you are not fine!"

Brock: "We need to get Mew to dry land, now."

(Brock says.)

(Pikachu then hurries to Mew's backpack.)

(Then brings out Squirtle, Poliwhirl, and Magikarp's Pokeballs.)

(Then take out Vaporeon, Staryu, Starmie's and Golduck's Pokeballs.)

(Then taps on each of them and has the Pokemon come out.)

(Pikachu explains.)

Pikachu: "Pika Pikachu Pika Pika Pikachu. Pika Pika Pikachu Pika Pikachu Pikachu Pika Pikachu." (Listen everyone, Mew is getting a fever, and we need to get her some help! You need to swim everyone to shore as fast as you can!)

(The Water Pokemon nod their heads in reply.)

Brock: "I think Pikachu got the Pokemon to help us out."

(Brock says.)

Gary: "Then let's hurry,"

(Gary says.)

(The group then has the Pokemon tied on to the raft and then the Water Pokemon pull the raft as fast as they can.)

(Just then, Pidgeotto and Fearow arrive on the scene.)

(Pidgeotto is holding a branch while Fearow is holding a seashell.)

Misty: "Looks like Fearow and Pidgeotto found land."

(Misty says.)

(Eevee hurries to Pidgeotto and Fearow in concern.)

Eevee: "Eevee Eevee. Eev Eevee Eevee Eevee." (Thank goodness you're back. Mew is sick and we need to get to shore fast.")

(Pidgeotto and Fearow fly in the air and point in the same direction they need to do.)

(Eevee turns to Misty and the others.)

Eevee: "Eevee Eevee." (They said to head that way.)

Brock: "I think Eevee wants us to follow Pidgeotto and Fearow!"

(Brock says.)

(Misty calls out to them.)

Misty: "Okay, lead the way!"

(The two flying Pokemon nod their heads and fly off to the direction of land.)

(The Water Pokemon then follow the Flying Pokemon as fast as they can.)

(Misty helps care of Mew while Gary and Brock help the Water Pokemon pick up some speed by roaring.)

(Mew eyes slowly open and turns her head to see Misty as she pours water on a small towel, rings it, and places it on Mew's forehead.)

(Pikachu and Eevee watch in concern as the boys and the Pokemon speed things up.)

(Magikarp turns his eyes a little to see Mew isn't feeling well and knows that she needs first aid, and quickly.)

(After all, despite it's big size and a salesman tries to sell it, Mew saves it and wants to be his trainer.)

(Magikarp decides to pick up the pace as fast as his large body can carry.)

(Suddenly, Magikarp begins to glow bright as his body begins to enlarge.)

(Misty, Brock, Gary, Pikachu, Eevee, and the Water Pokemon become surprised to see Magikarp is glowing.)

Gary: "What's going on?"

(Gary asks, surprised.)

(Brock says.)

Brock: "Magikarp is evolving!"

(Indeed Magikarp continues to evolve as it dives into the water.)

(In the matter of minutes, the raft is lifted from the sea and the Pokemon are being lifted up.)

(Gary, and Misty quickly call back their Pokemon while Brock calls back Mew's.)

(Magikarp is now a long bodied serpentine Pokémon, covered in slightly overlapping scales: mostly blue with a yellow underbelly, and it has a row of yellow spots down each side.)

(Its mouth is very large and gaping, bearing four pointed teeth and yellow lips.)

(It has one barbel and a small white fin on each side of its face.)

(The barbels are white on a female and tan on a male.)

(It has small, red eyes, a three-pointed, dark blue crest on its head, and four white, spiky dorsal fins.)

(Finally it's tail fin is similar in structure to the crest on its head, except with a thin, white fin spread between the points.)

Gary: "Woah! This Gyarados is two times the original size of a normal Gyarados!"

(Gary says, surprised.)

Brock: "Well, Mew did say that the Magikarp she found was twice the size of a normal Magikarp."

(Brock says, surprised.)

(Gary takes out his Pokedex, and Dexter says.)

Dexter: "Gyarados, the Atrocious Pokémon. A Water and Flying Type. This Pokémon has a vicious temperament, so use extreme caution. Its fangs can crush stones and its scales are harder than steel."

(Gyarados roars and continues to follow Pidgeotto and Fearow to their destination.)

Misty: "Well, this one isn't acting vicious."

(Misty says, surprised.)

Brock: "I think Gyarados evolved so it can help Mew get to land faster."

(Brock says.)

Gary: "I think you're right,"

(Gary agrees.)

(Misty sighs in relief.)

Misty: "That's good. I guess it just showed that not all Gyarados are vicious."

Mew: "Why do you say that?"

(Mew softly asks.)

(Misty turns her head to see Mew is still awake.)

(A little embarrassed, Misty says.)

Misty: "Well, it's a bit difficult to explain. Water Pokemon has always been my passion, but Gyarados is another story."

Gary: "What happened?"

(Gary asks.)

Misty: "Well, I don't fully remember, but my sisters also told me what happened. When I was a baby, I crawled to a Gyarados while it was asleep and tried to crawl on it. But I woke it up, and I got swallowed by it. Luckily it spit me out, but I've been kind of scared of Gyarados ever since."

(Misty explains.)

Brock: "Really? That's kind of surprising to hear it, since you and your sisters are Water Type gym leaders."

(Brock says.)

Misty: "Yeah. I tried to face my fears, but I couldn't stop being scared."

(Misty says.)

(Mew turns to Misty.)

Mew: "I actually remember that I used to be scared of Gyarados."

Misty: "You were scared?"

(Misty asks, shocked.)

(Mew nods her head.)

Mew: "Yes, but when I got to know them, I've learned that Gyarados can actually be nice and gentle and I wasn't scared of them anymore."

Misty: "Well, I believe you, and your Gyarados is very nice, so I guess it shows that Gyarados can be good and loyal Pokemon, and friends."

(Misty says.)

(Gyarados roars with glee.)

Gary: "I think Gyarados appreciates it."

(Gary says.)

(Time has gone by, and Pidgeotto and Fearow are able to lead Gyarados to dry land.)

(They arrive at the docks where they see different boats and ships around the area.)

(Gyarados arrives and lowers his head to let them climb off.)

(Brock carries Mew on his back and climbs down.)

(Misty holds out Mew's Pokeballs.)

Misty: "Thanks Gyarados, Pidgeotto, you both are a real help."

Gary: "Thanks Fearow,"

(Gary says.)

(Then they both call back the Pokemon in their Pokeballs.)

Brock: "Let's get to the Pokemon Center and get Mew some medical care."

(Brock says.)

(Suddenly, someone calls out.)

???: "Hey kids!"

(The three kids turn their heads to see Officer Jenny with the Captain of the St. Anne hurrying towards them.)

Brock: "It's Officer Jenny,"

(Brock says.)

Gary: "And the Captain of the St. Anne."

(Gary says.)

(Officer Jenny and The Captain arrive on the scene.)

Officer Jenny: "We're glad to see you're okay."

(Officer Jenny says.)

(Then the Captain says.)

the Captain: "When we saw that you four were missing, we feared the worst until we saw the Gyarados arrive at the docks."

Officer Jenny: "We're glad to see you all are alright."

(Jenny says.)

Misty: "We are too, but our friend Mew is getting a fever."

(Misty says.)

Officer Jenny: "Don't worry, we'll get your friend the medical care she needs."

(Jenny says.)
