124. Phanpy

Thunder and lightning were everywhere, in front of them, behind them, over them, and the sides!

Pikachu's cheeks sparkled with constant sparks, looking particularly excited amidst the thunder storm that was going on.

However, Molly changed her usual fearless and careless attitude and huddled in Ash's arms while holding the Pokémon Egg that Ash received. She was a more than a little afraid of the ongoing thunder storm.

Meganium reached out to the side and gently patted her back with her Vine Whip to comfort the little girl.

Because of the constant thunder and heavy rain, and Ash and his group hurriedly ran towards the Pokémon Center that was located nearby.

Fortunately, it was already dark, and they had already planned to spend the night at the Pokémon Center, so the distance was not far away from their current location.

"It's raining heavily outside, I'm glad to see you guys are all fine!" Nurse Joy handed Molly a towel and was nice enough to help her dry her hair when she walked inside.

Brock suddenly rushed over to her in an instant, "Nurse Joy, I think this rain is pulling use to meet each other! We are destined to be together!"

Misty pulled him away by his ears before he could continue on with his love confession, "Okay, okay, that's it for now! You can distract her later."

The only guests who came tonight were Ash and his party. They came to the room arranged by Nurse Joy for them. After a tiring day, they tidied up and went to sleep quickly after falling on the bed.

Late at night, The Team Rocket Trio appeared in front of the door of Ash and his team's room. Meowth stretched out his claw and quickly unlocked the door and saw the Pokémon Egg placed on the table.

"Then let's start with that Pokémon Egg, we will snatch it away from the twerp!"

They planned to steal Ash's Egg because of their last failed attempt ar doing that!

James used one of his trusted fishing rod to lift Meowth up. This self made crane was used to lift Meowth up to get the Egg by the bedside.

"Nice!"

"Yeah!"

"Wobb-!"

But no, Wobbuffet couldn't stand to be quite anymore!

Jessie and James quickly held it down, but its sound had already woken up a member of Ash's group!

Togepi!

Seeing the farce of the idiot trio, Togepi seemed to be particularly happy, waving her little hands around.

Almost like a Metronome, because it was a Metronome.

Then, a faint light emitted from these little hands, and with a slight wave, the Pokémon Egg disappeared and appeared in the forest outside the Pokémon Center.

She is using the move Metronome to use Teleport! Or sending others with Teleport! How awesome is that!

When the Team Rocket trio came to their senses, they found that the Egg was missing!

"Wobb~"

Before they could even think about looking for it, Wobbuffet picked up a fruit and started eating it. Their attention was immediately attracted by the food in the Pokémon Center.

Who cares why or where the Pokémon Egg disappeared? They just wanted to eat something right now.

By the time Molly discovered that the Egg was missing in the morning, they had already eaten and left the Pokémon Center.

"Brother, the Pokémon Egg is missing!" Molly was so sad after noticing it that she started to cry. Ash had to coax her first to stop crying because anything else.

"What happened?" Nurse Joy heard the little girl crying from where she was early in the morning and hurried over to check up what the situation was.

Molly's mood had recovered a bit after being coaxed by Ash, and she replied pitifully, "Nurse Joy, the Pokémon Egg that was with me is missing!"

"Missing? How is that possible?"

Nurse Joy immediately called Officer Jenny after hearing Molly's words.

Officer Jenny arrived very quickly after getting the call. She drifted and stopped in front of Ash and the others who came out of the Pokémon Center. She gave a standard salute, "Is this the Pokémon Center where the incident happened?"

Brock immediately went up to her and was getting ready to say his usual confessions when seeing a beautiful lady. But this time something special happened.

This time, Misty didn't need to take any action. Molly jumped up and pulled his ears away before he could even begin his talk, "The most important thing now is to find my Pokémon Egg. Brother Brock, don't cause trouble for now. You can do that later!"

Officer Jenny ignored their antics and looked at Ash and Nurse Joy, "Please tell me all the details you have!"

In fact, there are no details whatsoever. They just woke up in the morning and found that the Pokémon Egg that was with them was now missing. In fact, Ash had no intention of asking Burse Joy and Officer Jenny for help.

But this Officer Jenny seems to be particularly enthusiastic, "I have handled countless incidents like this, so leave this matter to me. After all I'm a professional detective, I know how to deal with this kind of things!"

After listening to her talking, this Officer Jenny seems a bit unreliable!

She must have been the oddball in her family.

Ash shook his head, "Officer Jenny, did you bringing out your Growlithe with you?"

Originally, he was planning to exchange Houndoom for help, but now that Officer Jenny is here, it saves him the trouble of calling Professor Oak again.

Of course Officer Jenny took her Growlithe with her, and following the scent of Ash's body, it quickly found the constant-temperature incubator that originally contained the Pokémon Egg.

However, the Pokémon Egg itself is missing from the inside!

"Growlithe, please try again!"

This time following the smell of the missing Egg inside the incubator, Growlithe quickly led the group to find a wild Kangaskhan.

In the pouch of that Kangaskhan is Ash's missing Pokémon Egg!

"Big Brother, I found it!" Molly seemed even happier than Ash after finding the missing Egg.

She immediately rushed forward, "Kangaskhan, that Egg belongs to my brother, can you please return it to us?"

Molly is very courageous, even if that's not a good thing in some cases. If the Kangaskhan attacks her, she won't be able to do anything to it! But fortunately, Kangaskhan as a species is a very gentle Pokémon.

Ash ran over to her side, looked at the Kangaskhan and smiled, "Are you worried about it, so you put it in your pouch? Thank you so much for protecting it!"

Kangaskhan confirmed the Aura on Ash's body and returned the Pokémon Egg to Ash.

Ash carefully put the Egg back into the incubator and handed it to Molly to hold it for now.

Then, he hugged the Kangaskhan gently and said, "Thank you!"

"Molly, there is always a lot of warmth in this world, understand?"

At this moment, this Pokémon Egg suddenly began to emit a dazzling light!

It was going to hatch right now of all time!

"It's about to be born!" Molly exclaimed. This was the second time she witnessed the birth of a Pokémon, but no matter how many times she came, she was always full of expectations!

Misty, Brock, Nurse Joy and Officer Jenny gathered around, hoping to witness the birth of a new life!

After shining for a few seconds, what appeared in front of them was a blue cutie, with big ears, a long nose, and a cute and innocent look!

Phanpy is the pre-evolution form of Donphan that Ash and his team encountered way back around the beginning of their Johto Adventures. In the original series, he will become another one of Ash's Pokemon's!

"Wow, it's so cute!" Molly almost fainted from the cuteness of the baby Phanpy. She likes Phanpy very much ever since she first saw it from her dad. She even used a Phanpy to fight Ash during the incident in the Crystal Tower.

Ash nodded his head, "Molly, now there is a little guy who is even cuter than you!"

"No, I'm always the cutest!" Molly curled her lips.

Ash walked up slowly and gently touched Phanpy's nose. Feeling the owner's affection, Phanpy waved his nose around happily, and then bumped him with his nose. This was Phanpy's way of expressing his love.

Despite its small body, it was already very powerful. The Normal Trainer cannot handle such a Tackle, but Ash took it easily because he is not normal in any sense of the way.

"Come on, come on!"

He took out the Poké Ball and subdued the newly hatched Phanpy.

"I just caught a Phanpy!" Molly stole Ash's signature words again!

The Kangaskhan looked at Ash and his newly hatched Phanpy and nodded towards them, then turned and left with her baby.
