After finishing the call with Professor Samuel Oak, Ash took Ralts for a check-up. The results were great, and everyone was healthy.

  "Very good, everyone is healthy."

  "Of course, but you over there! Who are you!" Ash said, pointing in a certain dire, from which two voices came.

  "No way? Are they talking about us?"

  "Have we been discovered?"

  "You two idiots, meow! We've been discovered, meow!"

  "Go, Koffing, use Smog!"

  Then the smog began to spread, and Ash looked at his Meowth in fusion, asking, "Hey Meowth, you don't have a talking sibling, do you?!"

  Meowth was also fused, reizing the voice. "No, meow, I lear myself, meow!"

  "Never mind... let's use a blower to clear it..."

  "Okay, meow!"

  As Meowth pressed a button on a tool, it turned inte blower that dispersed the smog, and the three voices iarted coughing.

  "Cough! Idiots, we got hit first!"

  "I didn't expect that either!"

  "You two idiots, meow!"

  Listening to the three voices in the smog talking like morons, Ash couldn't help but sigh, asking, "Who are you?"

  And Ash's question seemed to flip a switch, then...

  "Since you asked sincerely,"

  "we will generously tell you!"

  "To prevent the world from beiroyed,"

  "to protect the peace of the world,"

  "to uphold love and true evil,"

  "the cute and charming vilins~"

  "Jessie!"

  "James!"

  "We are Team Rocket, bsting off through the gaxy!"

  "White hole, a white tomorrow is waiting for us!"

  "That's it~ Meow~~~~"

  Looking at these three guys, especially Meowth, Ash was pletely dumbfounded. What the heck is that talkih?! Does he have two Meowths at home?!

  Thinking this, Ash couldn't help but ask Meowth, "Excuse me, Meowth, are you from Hollywood?"

  Being asked by Ash, Meowth was stunned for a moment, then said, "No, meow, I'm from somewhere else."

  "Then how you talk?"

  "I lear from books, meow. What's wrong? No, meow! Why should I answer you, meow? Now I have to plete the task to impress the boss aurn to his side, meow!"

  After listening to Meowth's words, Ash uood that it should be a ce, but si's like this...

  "Good, I've asked all I wao ask. So, you guys are useless now."

  Straightening his hat, Ash's aura started to bee terrifying.

  "Hey, Jessie, I feel that this little brat is a bit off..." James sehat the atmosphere was a bit off. And Jessie also nodded in agreement, saying, "I think so too. Anyway, let's strike first! Ekans, go!"

  "Charmander, use Ember to blind him and then scratch him!"

  As Ash threw the Poké Ball, Charmander came out. Hearing Ash's and, Charmander spewed a burst of fire, sg Ekans, and thees sharp cws to send Ekans flying.

  "My Ekans!" Jessie couldn't believe that her Ekans was taken down i. Seeing this, James quickly said, "Koffing, use Smog!"

  "Koffing!"

  As Koffing started to spew out smog, Charmander's vision was blocked.

  "Charmander, lie down!"

  Hearing Ash's words, Charmander obediently y down, and this position also avoided Koffing's collision.

  "What?"

  "Stare at him!"

  When Charmander gred, Koffing was clearly scared, but this wasn't the end.

  "Use your tail to send him flying!"

  "Lee!"

  Charmander's tail hit Koffing, and Koffing was knocked out.

  Seeing that both Ekans and Koffing were defeated, Meowth khat things were going badly.

  Meowth: "I think we'd better leave, meow..."

  Jessie: "Good idea, Meowth."

  James: "Meowth, you're really smart."

  Seeing these three about to run away, Ash, who had Meowth blow away the smog, looked at them with red eyes.

  "Don't be in such a hurry to leave. I haven't treated you properly yet."

  "...We're in trouble..." *3

  "In order to thank you for being oppos aing Charmander practice, I will send you off now! Pikachu, Hyper Eleaginon!"

  "What?!" * 3

  "Pika~Chu!!!!"

  Pikachu took out a small , threw it into the air, then raised its little fiowards Team Rocket's trio, and flicked it.

  Boom!!!!

  With a beam of lightning shooting into the sky, Team Rocket's trio magically flew away.

  "Su annoying feeling!" * 3

  "Hmm, suddenly I feel refreshed." Watg the trio fly away, Ash inexplicably felt a sense of relief, while Meowth looked in the dire Team Rocket flew and said, "So there are other Meowth that talk too, how fasating."

  "The world is full of wonders, I'll trahe repair fee to you, Nurse Joy! I have other matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave first!"

  Nurse Joy watched Ash leave and wished him, "Take care on your way!"

  After leaving the Pokémoer, Ash arrived at the Gym of Pewter City, the Pewter Gym.
