Pokemon: Radical Redux

Walking back Ash was comforting Brock after he got rejected by the store clerk, eventually, they got to the lake and Misty was fishing in the lake and Yellow was drawing in her notebook, with her Pokemon sleeping around her.

"Hey guys we're back," Ash called down waving at them and getting their attention.

The girls turned and saw them approach with Brock sad, again, "Let me guess, Officer Jenny?" Misty said.

"Nope, cash register girl," Ash responded.

"Hey, why are you guys having fun on my misfortune." Brock cut in.

Ash and Misty chuckled and Yellow patted Brock while he was crumbling in a ball, "Well anyway what is the plan, because I still want to fish around here for a bit," Misty asked.

Brock picked himself up and went back to his usual self, "Well it's fine, it is still quite early and we are only a day or two from Vermilion City."

Ash shrugged, "Sure not like we are running out of time, not like we were lost for a week or two. How about lunch then, we just got restocked."

Misty immediately agreed and Yellow nodded, "Alright then how about Jelly don- I mean rice balls and sandwiches." Ash offered.

They agreed and Ash and Brock made the completely real Jelly donuts that do not look like rice balls at all.

Eventually, when they were done Ash had Bulbasaur help him carry some of the food to everyone.

Misty was about to get up before she started feeling a tug at her line and she started trying to reel it in, "I caught something!"

Then when she pulled it out it was one of the Squirtles, who got out and threw water at Misty getting her soaked, but Ash stepped out of the way and grabbed the plate from Bulbasaur.

Soon after all the Squirtles appeared and demanded for them to hand over the food, of course only Ash and Yellow understood that because of their supernatural stuff.

Ash raised his hand, "Hey can I suggest something." Everyone looked confused and the leaders allowed him to say what he had to say.

"Thanks, I gotta say I love the glasses, but that's beside the point I wanted to say, How about No," Ash said signaling for Bulbasaur to strike.

Bulbasaur got his vines out and grabbed the Squirtle by Misty and threw it to the other Squirtles putting them all into a cluster.

"Pikachu do you mind?"

Pikachu sent a thunderbolt at the Squirtles, frying two of them and making them retreat as the leader glared back at them.

Ash paid no mind to them and pulled out a towel and threw it to Misty, "This is why we pack more than one pair of clothes,"

"Yeah, Yeah, but that was the Squirtle squad again right," Misty asked as she tried Drying herself off as much as she could.

"Seems like it, they might be following us," Brock said as he sat down.

"They probably are, we didn't fall for their prank, and we just stopped them from trying to rob us," Ash said.

"I still feel bad for them," Yellow said, "I wish we could do something for them."

"Yellow there are some people that don't want to be helped and right now it seems like they don't want or deserve it," Misty said, still agitated about them.

Brock tried to get them to cheer up with a joke, "Hey how about we eat these Jelly donuts they are delicious."

Meanwhile

Jesse, James, and Meowth were preparing to rob the store to get the blast powder they needed.

They got in holding their fake guns filled with Cherry blossoms and stole nearly everything in the store, and got away on their blimp.

"That was too easy, we are good at this, '' Jesse said as she was sitting on a thought of stuff.

"Yes we have had more luck stealing anything except Pikachu," James said.

"Maybe that Darn Pikachu is just bad luck," Meowth said as he ate a sandwich.

"Don't be ridiculous, how can that Pikachu be bad luck if it never went bad for the twerp," Jesse said, hitting Meowth on the head with a fan.

"But he has a point, we never failed a mission until we met Pikachu and his trainer, Ash I think, and every time we failed after that we saw them," James said.

Jesse was about to hit him too but she stopped to think a bit, "Well you do have a point, well then it's decided we won't chase that Pikachu, but if we see them on the way then let's steal it, maybe by then our good luck will return."

"Alright but what is the plan anyway to get those Squirtles, you said you would tell us after lunch and you never did." James reminded Jesse.

"It's called Monologuing James, all the most beautiful villains do it, but yes we are going to use this Blast powder to Blow them out of the forest where they will be all ours for the taking," Jesse said.

James and Meowth looked at each other for a second then at the same time they said, "Phrasing."

Meanwhile with the Squirtles,

The Squirtles went back to their cave base carrying their two fried members,

The leader Squirtle spoke up, [Alright you get the potions for these two,] he pointed to grunt Squirtle 1.

Grunt Squirtle 1 ran to their stash of things they stole from the townspeople and grabbed some paralyze Heals, then applied them to Squirtle Grunt 2 & 3.

Squirtle Grunt 4 decided to ask, [Boss what are we going to do against that group of humans, no one has ever gone against us,]

The Boss pulled out his Bandana and put it on, [It is simple we are going to make the greatest prank ever, because who are we] Squirtle said pointing at his team.

[The Squirtle Squad!!] the four other Squirtle said in unison.

[So let's get ready and ゴPoseゴ] Squrtle said while striking JOJO pose.

The Squirtle grunts looked at their boss, put on their headbands then struck the Ginyu force pose with their Boss, [Yes Boss.]

Meanwhile back at camp

Everyone had finished eating and Brock and Yellow were helping to clean up, meanwhile, Ash gave his hat to Pikachu and was lying down thinking about things.

'Well let's start with what I know, Squirtle joined after Ash saved him from the forest fire from Team Rocket but they haven't been showing up recently, how can I get him, well I could burn the forest myself but there are 2 problems, one I don't have a fire type, and two if I get caught probably going to jail. So that's out.'

'Well besides that Charmander hasn't been abandoned yet so I will see what I can do about that, and finally my Weedle and Magikarp. They both should have evolved by now and yet they have both started growing bigger than normal. I can't figure out what is going on with them.'

As Ash was thinking Misty was looking at Ash thinking he was asleep, she smirked and pulled out a water balloon and prepared to drop it on him, and she bribed Pikachu with some Ketchup to keep him quiet.

She dropped the water balloon, but as soon as it got close Ash grabbed it out of the air, used aura to make it swirl inside the Balloon, then threw it back at Misty, hitting her directly.

Ash got up and looked at Misty with a smirk, "It's never going to happen, if you want to hit me train for another 100 Ye-" He was cut off by a water balloon hitting him from the side of the head, making Pikachu and Misty start laughing.

"What was that?" Yellow asked, looking around to see what threw the balloon.

"Don't look at me, I didn't do it," Brock said, defending himself from the accusations.

"Well serve you ri-" Misty was also cut off when a second water balloon hit her in the head.

"Who is throwing those balloons?" Brock said, looking around.

"I think they are-" Yellow was cut off by another water Balloon and as Brock helped her up he was also hit by one.

Pikachu was laughing until a water Balloon hit him and ruined his Ketchup bribe.

Misty and Pikachu were both very mad and looked around only hearing "Squirtle, Squirtle, Squirt." Looking back they saw the Squirtle squad with water balloons, they threw the last few they had before they ran into the forest.

"Those Jerks when I get my hands on them!" Misty said angrily, with Pikachu agreeing and following Misty into the forest.

Ash handed Yellow and Brock a towel before looking at them, "Pikachu still has my hat."

Brock was Drying himself, "Do you think it is a trap?"

"It is completely a trap, but they have my hat so let's go after them," Ash said, so all three of them started following the path of destruction left behind by Misty and Pikachu.

They eventually got to the cave of the Squirtles and Misty was tied up with Pikachu on a rock and Squirtle had his hat.

"Hey you guys having fun," Ash said, "You let them get my hat, you don't take a man's hat who does that."

"Forget the hat, can you get us out of here?" Misty Yelled

Squirtle walked forward and started Monologuing about how this was their fault and other things until everyone got interrupted by a sound.

BOOOOMMMMMM!!!!!

A large explosion surprised everyone as a fire started breaking out engulfing their entrance in fire, everyone was confused until they heard familiar music and smoke coming in.

Jessie: Prepare for trouble...

James: ...and make it double!

'You have got to be kidding me' Ash thought, so while everyone was distracted he just walked over and untied Misty and Pikachu, then he took back his hat.

Meowth: Meowth, dat's right!

"Ok Squirtles you are under arrest and will be in the custody of Team Rocket," James announced with a microphone from the balloon.

"Hey isn't that the kid Jimmy," Meowth said, noticing Ash standing by the cave.

"You're right, just our luck just when we said we wouldn't specifically follow them." James sighed.

"No matter," Jessie said while also grabbing the microphone from James, "Hey twerp surrender your Pokemon and the Squirtles."

Team Rocket threw more bombs causing more of the forest to light up, at this point, the Squirtles started trying to put out the fire and Misty sent her Pokemon to help.

"Pikachu, can you hit them from here?" Pikachu nodded before jumping on top of Ash and running along his arm and jumping, "Thunderbolt."

The bolt of lightning went to the trio and hit them, igniting the rest of the Blast powder they had left, it exploded and sent them Flying again.

"Alright, we got rid of them, we all need to get out of here." Ash said, "We need to stop the fire that's farther in the forest."

Misty, Brock, and Yellow understood and started moving along but the Squirtles seemed to want to continue protecting their area, "This area is already a lost cause even if you put out the fire everything is already burnt so let's try to stop this forest from burning down."

The Squirtles wanted to argue but they knew he was right so at the command of their leader they started moving.

As they all continued walking, they all tried putting out the fire any way they could, once they got to the other side they finally started pushing the fire back, until they realized they were missing one turtle.

Ash sighed, took off his hat, and ran back into the forest while his friends tried to stop him and he continued walking.

Looking in the fire he saw the Squirtle trapped behind some burning logs, Ash used aura to cover his hands similar to gloves, and pushed them out of the way and got to the turtle.

He picked up the turtle as another log fell behind them, Ash didn't even try to move around he just pulled out Abra and teleported back.

He appeared behind his friends who were yelling for him, he just walked forward and tapped them on the shoulder, "I have an Abra remember?"
