Josh- We find yours truly and his motley crew walking down the
road.
Matt- What the?
Misty- Youre not the narrator, Josh!
Josh- So what? Anyway, we find Ash, the trainer from Pallet
Ash- Soon to be the worlds greatest pokémon master!
Josh- You wish! I am! (Ash glares) Misty, his fiery girlfriend
from Cerulean
Misty- For the hundredth time, I AM NOT HIS GIRLFRIEND!!!
Josh- Brock, the gym leader, breeder, and womanizer from
Pewter
whom I might add, has NEVER successfully asked a girl out
this ENTIRE series
Brock- Dont remind me!!
Josh- Matt, the headphone-wearing trainer from Vermilion
Matt- Hey now, youre a
(Takes off headphones) What did you say
about me??!!
Josh- And me, Josh, the greatest of them all. Sure, Ash may seem
like the hero. But just because hes in the first episode
doesnt mean anything. I run the show around here
Misty- SHUT UP!!!
(Misty throws a rock at the screen. It hits, and the first-
person falls to the ground. It shifts to third-person, and it
turns out Josh was video-taping this from up a tree.)
Josh- Owww
Misty- Now youre mine!!
Ash- Well see who runs the show around here, Josh!!
Josh- Aww, look. Youre helping your girl
Matt- I wouldnt have said that.
Misty and Ash- WHY YOU
(They start beating up Josh. After a while, the scuffle stops
and it reveals Ash hanging over Josh and Misty pinning Joshs
arms down.)
Ash- Now wheres the real narrator?
Josh- Tied
up
top branch.
Brock- Ill get him. (He climbs up)
Matt- Dont say I didnt warn you, Josh
Pikachu- Chaaa
(A sigh)
(Ash shouts title)
Narrator- Whew! Now that Im out of that mess, we can continue.
So, lets check on Team Rocket
Jessie- I wonder what those brats are doing.
James- What do you see, Meowth?
Meowth- Hmmm
Traveling as usual.
Jessie- Rats! Theyll be expecting us!
James- Hey! I have an idea!
Jessie- You have an IDEA?!
Meowth- Thats a foist.
James- Well, if theyre expecting us to jump out right now, they
wont, because theyll think that we wont try that again,
because weve done it in the past and it failed, so if we jump
out now, theyll be surprised! (Jessie and Meowth stare) What?
Jessie- Thats brilliant!!! (She throws her arms around him.
James does his laugh.)
Meowth- Simple, but with good reasoning. It might woik. (Sees
James) Youre enjoying dat, arent cha?
Jessie and James- WHY YOU
(They beat up Meowth)
Back to our heroes
Brock- Its a beautiful day!
Josh- Blue skies, white clouds
It seems too good to be true!
Misty- No other trainers, no gym leaders, no danger or death-
defying adventure
and no Team Rocket!
Matt- Yeah, now Team R isnt bugging us anymore!
Ash- Three cheers for having no Team Rocket!
All- Hip hip hooray! Hip hip hooray! Hip hip-
Jessie- Thats what YOU think, brats!
James- Im afraid your sunny day WAS too good to be true! (The
Rockets show themselves)
Jesse- To protect the world from devastation!
James- To unite all peoples within our nation!
Jesse- To denounce the evils of truth and love!
James- To extend our reach to the stars above!
Misty- SHADAAAPP!!! (The surprised Rockets stop indeed.)
Brock- I hate to say it guys
Ash-
But were not in the mood today.
Matt- Take the rest of your stupid motto and shove it!
Josh- Electrode, go, and blow away these morons! (Electrode pops
out and flies at the Rockets)
Jessie- Aaah!!! Jessie!
James- Oh no!!! James! (Electrode blows them up with Explosion)
Jessie- (flying away with the rest of TR) Now were blasting off
at the speed of light!
James- We should have surrendered by now instead of trying to
fight!
Meowth- Meowth! I think youre right!
All of TR- Team Rockets blasting off
alreadyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!
Brock- Hey guys! Look at this!
Ash- What?
Matt- Cool! Electrodes Explosion uncovered a trapdoor!
Brock- It was buried pretty deep. That Electrode is strong!
Josh- Not that Im bragging, but I AM DA MAN!!!
Misty- I thought he said he wasnt bragging.
Ash- Lets go in.
Matt- Wait a minute! What youre saying is, you want us to go
down into that dark, smelly cave, probably filled with super-
pokémon or endless pit or some other unknown danger that could
kill us all?
Ash- Yeah.
Matt- AWESOME!!!
As they go down the ladder
Ash- Shes gonna say it
I know shes gonna say it
she wouldnt
be Misty if she didnt say it
Misty- Ash, have you gotten us lost again?!
Ash- Errrgghhh
Matt- Whats with her?
Brock- Its a girl thing.
Ash- Nah. Its just a Misty thing. (Misty smacks him) Ow!
Matt- But why does she always pick on Ash?
Josh- Now THATS a girlfriend-boyfriend thing
(Misty smacks
him) OW!
Brock- Quit it, guys. This ladders very rusty. It could crack
at any time.
(Matt, the last one down, hears a crack. He sees the portion of
the ladder just above him crack.)
Matt- Uh, guys
I think the ladder decided to crack
now.
Josh- Isnt that just our luck. (The ladder breaks and our
heroes tumble into darkness screaming.) (They land on a billowy,
puffy substance.)
???- Whaaatt?! Where? Who? (Looks above itself) Huh?! (The thing
forms a hole in the center of its body, and our heroes tumble
to the ground.)
Misty- Ash, look!
Ash- Wha
what is that thing? (Pulls out pokédex)
Dexter- Pokémon unknown.
Mysterious pokémon- Intruders! Here?! I must tell the boss! (It
flies off)
Brock- Now that thats over
Josh- Where are we?
Matt- It looks like an underground base
very suspicious
Ash- Wed better look for a way out.
(They walk around a bit. Then Ash spots a door marked
)
Ash- PRODUCTION ROOM. Authorized personnel only
Misty- Maybe we shouldnt go in!
Matt- Are you kidding? I want to bust these Rockets!
Brock- Rockets?
Josh- Matt, this is not a secret underground Rocket base. (Ash
opens the door. Everyone gasps.) But then again, it really is
something
(We see a room filled with weird machines, computers everywhere,
pokémon in cages, and an odd device at the end. This is what our
heroes run to.)
Ash- What is it? (A pokémon pops out that everyone gasps at.
Its picture pops up on large computer screen not too far away.)
Computer- Erchin, the Sea Urchin pokémon. Lives miles under the
ocean. Only comes up once in every 10 years to lay its eggs on
the beach.
Misty- This huge contraption is
Ash-
Is making pokémon.
Matt- I smell Team Rocket!
Josh- Oh brother, Matt. And, if the Rockets are doing this, than
whos THAT? (He points way up high.)
(Up on a raised platform is an odd pair of pokémon. One is a 6-
foot bug keying on a computer with its claws and the other is a
large red bird with a huge beak sitting on a stool punching in
keys with his feet.)
Bug- Well, another satisfied customer. Have you put Erchin in,
Zippo?
Zippo (the red bird)- Of course, Aspenth!
Aspenth- Just checking. (The weird pokémon from earlier flies
in)
Mysterious pokémon- Master Aspenth! Master Aspenth!
Aspenth- Calm down, Midnight. What is it?
Zippo- Probably thought he saw something again.
Midnight- Really, boss! There were 5 kids (Our heroes gasp) and
a Pikachu! (Pikachu gasps {Pika!}) Here in the factory! They
came down the ladder!
Zippo- Really? Well, where are they now?
Midnight- (Looks around nervously, and then spots our heroes)
RIGHT OVER THERE!!!
Zippo- What?! (He flies down in their direction. Our heroes
brace themselves as Zippo rears back his head
and spits a small
stream of flame.)
Aspenth- (Flies in on Midnight) Zippo! You must remember you
were not made for battle! (To Ash and co.) All right
what are
you doing here? If you know whats good for you, youll leave
now! (Crouches into a fighting stance and clacks together claws
menacingly)
Ash- Well, uh, you see
Misty- We sort of
Brock- Dropped in unannounced
Josh- Its not our fault, really
Matt- Hello! Im Matt, and these are my friends Ash, Misty, -
Ash- (Covers Matts mouth along with Brock) Shut up, Matt!
Brock- You wanna get us in trouble?
Ash- Really, uh
mister, we found a trapdoor in the ground and,
our curiosity got the better of us! (Puts arm behind head) Heh
heh
Josh- You see
Misty- Oh boy. Here we go again.
Josh-
my Electrode blew it open. Its very strong, really
Misty- All right, thats enough!
Aspenth- You mean
it wasnt your fault?
Our heroes- YEAH!
Aspenth- Oh! Terribly sorry. I had no idea
Midnight! You really
should question intruders before running to me!
Midnight- Sorry, Aspenth.
Zippo- Ha ha!
Midnight- Shut up!
Aspenth- Perhaps you would like to know more about this place
Mysterious voice from nowhere- This is no time for a guided
tour, Aspenth.
Aspenth- Master? Im sorry, O Great One, I was just trying to be
a good host
Voice- I understand, Aspenth. But still, I would like to see
them
in person.
Aspenth- Yes, master. (To Ash and co.) Come. I must take you to
him.
Ash- To who? The president of this factory?
Aspenth- Actually, I am the president of the Pokémon Factory.
But, you are about to meet the CEO!
Outside
Jessie- Heres where they were
James- But where are they now?
Meowth- Hey guys! Over here! (Meowth is at the trapdoor.)
James- They must have gone down there.
Jessie- Then that is where we must also go.
(As they climb down)
Meowth- Its too cramped here!
Jessie- This is NOT good for my hair!
James- You hair isnt good for me! Its getting in my face!
Meowth- Youre just mad because you cant look up her
Jessie- YOU LITTLE!!! (She uppercuts Meowth, who falls off the
ladder. He falls onto Jessie, who falls onto James. All three
tumble down the shaft screaming.)
Back down under
Brock- So this is the computer that mainly creates all the
pokémon.
Aspenth- That is correct, young one.
Zippo- These are the Factorydexes. They are like your pokédexes,
but they have every pokémon made in the Factory on them. I
suppose you can each borrow one
Matt- Sweeeet! (They get the Factorydexes)
Aspenth- And this is the teleporter to the bosss audience
chamber.
Misty- Cant you just walk there or something?
Zippo- Of course not! Our boss is too smart to let just anybody
walk in! These teleporters are password protected so no one can
walk in and attempt to hurt the boss.
Aspenth- (whispers password and the door opens) All right, one
at a time. (Each one of our heroes walks in one at a time. Then
Midnight, then Zippo, then Aspenth.)
Josh- That was a wild, crazy trip!
Matt- So, this is the headquarters of Giovanni.
Josh- For the tenth time Matt, this is NOT Team Rocket were
dealing with!
Voice- Correct, boy. It is by a force you have never imagined.
The nine leaders of the Pokémon Factory
commence! (More figures
appear in the teleporters)
???#1- Humans?
???#2- Here?!
???- Calm yourselves! (To Ash and co.) I apologize. I have not
yet properly introduced myself yet. (Steps out of the shadows)
Brock- Mew?
Matt- It looks more like
urgh, I know Ive seen a pokémon like
that before
Ash- Hold on
(Whips out Factorydex)
Factorydex- Mewthree, the Blend pokémon. The second attempt at
cloning a Mew. It uses powerful psychic abilities and fighting
techniques.
Brock- Second attempt
was there even a first attempt?
Mewthree- Yes, I am another Mew clone. However, my mind is not
as
misguided as Mewtwos. They left more of Mews mind in me.
Matt- Mewtwo
where have I heard that name before?
Mewthree- But dont worry. I have no intention of harming you,
after what Aspenth said.
Josh- But he didnt say
oh yeah
the psychic thing.
???#3- You must be mad, Mewthree! Letting humans run free in
here with our Factorydexes
Mewthree- Calm yourself, Hunter. I dont see what harm they can
do. I have scanned their minds and they have no hostile ideas in
their heads. Except pokémon battle
(Looks at Josh)
Josh- Heh heh
Ash- Hmmm
Factorydex- Hunter, the Ravager pokémon. Trained in 6 forms of
martial arts. When angry, it is also capable of using psychic
powers.
Ash- And youre Aspenth, Zippo, and Midnight
Factorydex- Aspenth, the Carapace pokémon. Its armor takes
little damage from physical attacks. In fact, no normal attack
can harm it at all. Zippo, the Lighter pokémon. A fire pokémon
which is useful to have for common every-day jobs, such as
starting a fire. Midnight, the Cumulus pokémon. Known to roam
the skies on stormy nights. When enraged, it will disperse
powerful lighting bolts.
Brock- What is the purpose of this factory anyway?
Mewthree- Perhaps the other factory workers would like to
explain that
Aurablu?
Factorydex- Aurablu, the Magical pokémon. Found southwest of
Cinnabar Island. It is said to have been dropped from the sky by
a legendary flying pokémon.
Aurablu- Its true, although Im not sure I remember a flying
pokémon
but enough about me. You see, we would have to explain
the history of this factory
Not too long ago, at a time Im
not sure of, a group of scientists, although discouraged by
their failure with Mewtwo
Matt- Where have I heard that name before?
Aurablu-
they made another altered clone, Master Mewthree.
However, he got away from the scientists
Aspenth- Not too long after his escape
thats when he met me.
Mewthree let the scientists error go. Our first meeting did not
go well, however
Mewthree- We fought. A long and hard battle, it was. We were so
evenly matched that we called it off.
???#1- (talks fast) And thats when the master started this
factory.
Ash- Who is THAT?
Factorydex- Tweak, the Fast pokémon. Unaffected by psychic
attacks. Quickly hunts down other pokémon with its razor-sharp
claws.
Tweak- Anyway,
themasterbegantomakeallofusandAurablufelloutoftheskyandandand
???#2- Awww, for crying out loud, let someone who obeys the
speeding laws do the talking!
Josh- Heh heh
hey Mewthree, is that your dog?
Factorydex- Legion, the Ghosthound pokémon. Easily seen on dark
nights, due to its claws emitting a strange and eerie greenish
glow.
Legion- Oh, thats sooo funny
now, like I was saying before I
was so rudely interrupted
Misty- Dont worry. Youre not the only one he does that to
(Josh- Heh heh
)
Legion- Well, Aspenth and Mewthree stopped fighting and decided
to join forces. They decided to start a pokémon factory
to make
pokémon for all great trainers
that could figure us out.
???#4- We have made over two hundred and fifty pokémon these
years
and the six of us, Hunter, Tweak, Midnight, Zippo, Legion,
and myself, Wendigo.
Matt- Whoa! Hes huge!
Factorydex- Wendigo, the Behemoth pokémon. The roar of this
pokémon can cause several pokémon several miles away to run. Its
huge claws can easily cut stone.
Mewthree- Now that you have gotten acquainted with everyone and
everything, Aspenth, why dont you give them a little tour?
Aspenth- Sure! Right this way, everyone. (He and the fab 5 step
into the teleporter that leads to the production room.)
Meanwhile
Meowth- Watta weird dump!
James- What is this place for, anyway?
Jessie- It looks like one of the bosss hangouts, but we never
heard about this one.
Meowth- I wonda where dis leads. (He points to a door marked
PRODUCTION ROOM. Authorized personnel only
)
Aspenth- You see, we get many, many requests for pokémon. We can
only choose the best. We average a pokémon or two every week.
(We see the Rockets ears pressed against the door.)
Matt- Wow, and youve made over two hundred and fifty pokémon?
That must have taken a long time.
James- Two hundred and fifty what?
Aspenth- Yes, it is quite an achievement, to make so many
pokémon.
All of TR- POKéMON?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! (They all evilly
grin)
Jessie- If we seize this place
James- The boss will pay us
Jessie and James- MILLIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meowth- Ill be top cat in no time!! Wattre we waitin for?
All of TR- Lets go!!!
(They knock in the door)
Our heroes- ITS TEAM ROCKET!!!
Jessie- Prepare-
Meowth- NOOO! Not agains!!!
James- But the factory owners have never heard our motto
Our heroes and Meowth- (Heads grow big) DONT DO IT!!!
Jessie and James- Okay, okay!
Aspenth- Team Rocket?! (Whips out walkie-talkie) Mewthree! We
have a code red! Repeat! Code Red!!!
Mewthrees Voice- Roger that. The Factory 9
assemble in the
Production Room! (The other 8 owners appear in the teleporter.
Everyone who cant fly jumps on Midnight and everyone goes to
ground level.)
Jessie- The factorys run
James-
by pokémon?
All of TR- Youre coming with us!!! (They send out Arbok,
Weezing, Lickitung, and Victreebel. Meowth also jumps in.)
Ash- All right, you guys
Mewthree- No, Ash. We are more than capable of dealing with them
as one.
James- Weezing! Victreebel! Sludge and Acid! (They use their
attacks.)
Tweak- Theyre mine! Agility! (He easily dodges the goop.) Now,
Slash! TWEEEEEEKK! (He slashes them.)
Jessie- Arbok! Scare with Glare!
Aurablu- Oh yeah? Light Screen! ARORA! (The attacks block one
another.)
Midnight- Thanks, Aurablu! Now hes mine! Thunderbolt!
MIIIIDD
NIIIIIIIIIIIIGGGHHTTT!!!!! (Arbok is shocked.)
Jessie- Eeerrggghhh
Lickitung, its up to you! Body Slam!
Aspenth- Leave this to me! (Body Slam barely rocks him.)
Misty- Amazing!
Brock- But how
Aspenth- Read the entry! No Normal attack can harm me! Now for
Leech Life! PWENTH! (He sucks health.)
Jessie- Big mistake, bug boy! Lick attack! (Aspenth is stunned.)
Mewthree- How dare you
Now its my turn! Psybeam!
MEWTHREEEEE!!! (Lickitung faints.)
Meowth- Hah! What wimps! Now youre all mines!
Zippo- Wanna bet?
Legion- Zippo, no!
Meowth- Meowth howth howth! Scratch! (Zippo is hurt.) Hah hah!
Pathetic! Hieeeeya! (He kicks Zippo aside) Ha ha ha ha!
Aspenth- Oh no!
Zippo- WHY YOU LITTLE
(He glows with light. Meowth stops
laughing.) FIRE SPIN, NOW! ZIIIIIIIII
PPOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
Meowth- MEEEEEEEEE!!!!
Tweak- All right little guy!
Wendigo- Yeah! Now run, you bandits!
Jessie- But
Wendigo- (roars) NOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!
All of TR- Eeeeeeekkk!!! Team Rockets running off again!!!
(They scram.)
Mewthree- Theyre not getting off that easy.
(A platform rises under TR.)
Jessie- Whats that underneath?
James- It looks like
Thing underneath- Electroode!
All of TR- AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!! (They blow away.)
Meowth- For the thoid time
All of TR- Were blasting off aggaaaaaaiiiiiiiiinnnnnnn!!!!!!!!
Mewthree- Phew! That was close. I hate to say this, but I bet
its time you got out of here.
Ash- Youre not going to erase our memories or anything, right?
Mewthree- Oh no. Unlike Mewtwo, I can trust you.
Matt- Whos Mew
Heyyyyy, wait a second!
Mewthree- Goodbye, my friends.
Factory pokémon- Bye, see ya, blah blah blah
(Our heroes are teleported above ground.)
Matt- Now THAT was cool!
Brock- Yeah!
Josh- Now wheres the h
its gone!
Matt- Now no one will believe us!
Josh- Yeah, no one will believe how strong my Electrode is!
(Everyone laughs)
Misty- Too bad they didnt make you a super-pokémon, Ash.
Ash- Thats OK. I have a team of super pokémon right here!
Pikachu- Pi-ka-chuu! (Trans.-Youd better believe it!)
