A Jigglypuff?

Ash was sitting at a table, on the other side of him was Green, and on the table, a Jigglypuff was looking at him sadly.

Abra was on his side after she went to go pick up Green from where she was since Abra did mark both Green and Gary back on the ship.

Ash put his hand between his brow, "So tell me again why you can't just send this thing to the Pokemon center?"

"C'mon, and deny you the chance to practice your skills, you're a much better doctor for both humans and Pokemon than they are," Green said, it was painfully obvious she was buttering Ash up.

"Flattery will get you nowhere, but whatever I can take a look," Ash said as he reached into his bag and got some basic medical equipment.

"Remind me again what the problem is," Ash said as he took a flashlight and a stick to inspect Jigglypuff's mouth.

"Well this girl, she has some problems in her voice, she can't really sing anymore and I can't tell why."

That caught Ash's attention, "Where did you say you found her?"

"Near Neon Town, I was doing completely fair and legal work there and I just found her."

"...You were gambling-"

"I was gambling"

Ash sighed, he also realized this was the Jigglypuff that would always chase around Ash, "Alright then it looks like her throat is just inflated, we have two options."

Jigglypuff and Green looked hopeful, "So what is it?"

"Well, 1. I can perform surgery and remove the inflated area while removing the excess liquid from behind the throat."

Jigglypuff and Green looked at each other and looked back, "And the other?"

"Well the less fun option is that she can just get some Throat Spray," Ash said as he pulled out a bottle.

Then the bottle disappeared as Green took it from his hand and was using it on Jigglypuff.

After the bottle was empty Jigglypuff was clearing her throat and Green was looking at the pink ball. And when Jigglypuff looked back up she started happily canting and jumping around on the table.

Green also got happy and grabbed the pink ball and hugged it as she rubbed her cheeks, "You're all better now!"

Ash sighed and looked over at the current races, the main race was the Ponyta race, and unsurprisingly Lara won, in record time too. Much to a certain boy's frustration, of course, Ash saw him as he walked away.

From what he heard about the Dodrio race, Lara and Ponyta finished a whole 20 seconds earlier than them.

But in the corner he saw an even better show, the slowpoke race…., it's been going on for 3 days.

As Ash was distorted thinking about all that he heard Green call out to him, "Hey by the way, where's Yellow and the other two?"

"Oh, on a raging Rhyhorn, probably a few miles away, they should get there before nightfall," Ash said looking over to Abra.

Green clasped her hands in front of her and took a breath, "mmmmmm, I can't believe I'm the one to ask this, but how much mental trauma are you giving them?"

Ash raised his hand and waved it a bit, "Yellow is probably at a 3, and Brock is probably a 4."

"...and the other one?"

"...Probably about a 7."

Green to a breath of concern, "Seems about right, let me guess, they tied you up?"

"Pretty much, though they didn't lock me in a basement like 'she' did," Ash said as he leaned back on his chair.

"*Sigh* Yeah that girl was crazy, she still thinks you and Gary have a thing for her."

The girl in question was someone from Pallet town, she was a year younger than them and her family was very rich, her name was Pink.

"Yeah, but at least you all found us after like 30 minutes, though I'm still not over the fact you and the girls took that as an invitation to dress me and Gary as Girls," Ash said

Green gave an evil smile, "Hehe, Look I'm just saying, you would have been hot if you were born as a girl."

Ash took a sip from his drink and pointed at Green with his pinky, "I am immune to your charm, nothing you say will sway my mind or conviction."

Green gave a cheeky smile, "So you admit I'm pretty,"

"Don't recall saying you weren't" Ash said unfazed.

But as he said that they felt the ground rumble and everyone looked around in confusion, people were muttering and saying all kinds of things and speculations on what the rumbling noise was, but then they saw it.

A herd of Tauros was charging at the town, and almost immediately people started panicking, one Tauros is one thing, but an entire herd, and there is a very good chance that Fusha would be destroyed.

Immediately Lara and Ponyta ran towards all the Tauros in an effort to stop them before they could arrive in town.

Ash and Green looked at each other before sighing and both got up to get ready just in case.

But it didn't seem like they would be needed, and a certain figure watching from the tops of the buildings seemed to think the same.

As Lara approached she released her Growlithe and started wrangling up the herd, with the help of the Growlithe the herd was starting to back themselves back into each other until they calmed down.

As it did Lara finally got a chance to breathe as she looked at her herd, "What's gotten into y'all?"

But at that moment a large rumble cut through the relief of everyone, from the distinct what they saw was a giant robotic Tauros charge towards them.

From the nub on the head came a quick light that flashed Ponyta in the eyes causing it to get scared and move to its hind legs causing Lara to fall off and land on her arm.

The Robot Tauros stopped in front of the herd, and then the sound of a speaker phone rang through the town. And what played next was theme music.

Jessie: To protect the world from devastation.

James: To unite all peoples within our nation.

Jessie: To denounce the evils of truth and love.

James: To extend our reach to the stars above!

Jessie: Jessie!

James: And James!

Jessie: Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!

James: Surrender now, or prepare to fight, fight, fight!

Meowth: Meowth, that's right!

Then Jessie's voice rang through the speaker, "Congratulations everyone, we will accept everyone's immediate surrender, we just need all the Pokemon, starting with these Tauros!"

"No, you can't!" Lara yelled as she got up holding her arm, "These Tauros don't belong to Y'all, you can't just take them as you please."

"Just watch us Meowth!" Meowth's voice came out as from the back of the Bull came multiple claws that immediately went over to start grabbing the Tauros.

As the claws started raising the Tauros, a purple blur sped across, and then in the next moment the claws were cut, releasing the captured Tauros and making them run in different directions.

"Looks like you didn't learn your lesson back on the ship," A female voice rang out from the rooftops.

Jumping down from the building was a familiar ninja girl, Janine, immediately a Ariados appeared beside her as she stared down the giant Robot.

"Wa- of course, whatever, don't think things will go the same as last time!" Jessie's voice rang through the speaker.

The horns of the bull turned into cannons that released two Pokemon, Arbok and Weezing, their newly evolved Pokemon.

"That doesn't seem entry fair, for you!" Janine said as her Ariados approached the two poison types.

Meanwhile stuck in the crossfire Lara was walking along with her Growlithe trying to catch up to Ponyta as Growlithe tried calming down the Tauros, but in all the chaos she was also trying to not get hit by the rampaging Tauros.

As she kept walking she saw a group rush at her, Growlithe tried to stop them to no avail and she ended up tripping while trying to get away, so she did the only thing she could and closed her eyes.

But suddenly she felt a pull from her on her back, as she opened it and looked to the ground she saw that she was moving and about 5 feet off the ground, looking behind her she saw Ash and Green riding on Ash's Tauros as Ash pulled her up.

"Can't have you getting squashed, how's your arm?" Ash said as Tauros got in position ready for his next command.

"Sorry, I think it got dislocated," Lara said sadly.

Ash looked at everything happening and looked over to Green, "Do you think you can take the wheel?"

Green put her thumb and index finger in a circle, "Who do you think I am, I can take it from here."

Ash nodded and looked back at Lara, "Just tell Green what to do, and try to get all the Tauros before anything happens."

Lara nodded and asked, "What about you?"

"What else, I'm stopping Team Rocket," Ash said as he jumped off the charging bull, causing Lara to look concerned but Green was unfazed.

"Alright country girl, I want you to know I have no idea what I'm doing," Green said as she took control.

Back with the battle, Ariados jumped out of the way from Arbok's [Poison Fang] and Weezing's [Sludge Bomb], and as he did he shot out two webs that grabbed the two and slammed them into each other.

Janine's Ariados in particular had webs that were sharp and strong enough to pierce even metal, so Arbok and Weezing were very much stuck.

But before Ariados or Janine could capitalize, the Tauros robot raised its head and charged its version of a [Hyper Beam] aiming at both of them.

As the beam left the robot's mouth a light blue screen appeared directly on the mouth of the robot, causing the beam to explode in its mouth.

From the side, two voices yelled out, "Hey guys, it's been a while, did you miss us!" "Pika Pika"

As the robot turned its head and looked in the direction of the voices, there they saw Ash and Pikachu, with a small pink thing behind Ash's head.

"Wha- it's the twerp!" James said

"No matter, we'll just take Pikachu and the rest of the Pokemon" Jessy yelled out as the Robot's eyes glowed red again.

"Hey, I think you forgot about something!" Janine yelled out, as they looked back they saw the sight of Arbok and Weezing being thrown back into the face of the robot.

"Gahh! Hey, what's the big idea!"

Janine smiled back, "Sorry, I was just feeling left out,"

"Fine, what's one more twerp! Pull the lever." 

"Meowth, Let's do this." 

The Bull's horns relieved steam as the bull itself started moving towards Janine and Ariados, but just then they heard the sounds of a whistle, and multiple webs grabbed onto the hind leg causing the bull to lose balance and fall over to its side.

Flying over the robot was Beedrill who had both her hands connected to multiple webs, each of them leaking with a liquid, "You shouldn't put your back on someone, Beedrill, Flame web."

The liquid on the web was a nitroglycerin-like poison that she practiced creating, as she wiped the web it started turning red from the heat and ignited, also tearing off the hind leg of the robot.

Janine looked over to Ash and yelled over, "Not bad, you're definitely more creative, but mine are stronger, Ariados show them how it's done!"

Ariados shot out two webs at the Bull's front legs, immediately the webs cut through the legs like butter, and as they latched onto the Robot with one pull the Robot fell on its face.

Beedrill looked at the difference in quality of the webs and seemed unsatisfied by her own progress so she looked at Ash, who just sighed.

"Alright, I can help you with that later, but also go do 'that' they're approaching," Ash said.

Beedrill nodded and flew away in what seemed like the forest's direction, meanwhile, Jessie and James were frantically trying to find something in this robot that would do something.

"I told you we shouldn't have gotten the discounted one!" Jessie yelled.

"It's not my fault, Meowth told me we should waste less money so we don't end up broke like before!"

"And you listened!" Jessie yelled.

"Yeah, even I'm not dumb enough to listen to myself," Meowth said.

From outside the robot, they heard Janine's voice, "It's over, you're surrounded and your robot is due for the scrap yard."

"It seems like we need to do this the old-fashioned way," Jessie said, pulling out a rose.

James pulled out a blue rose, "Very well, let's show them our beauty they can't comprehend."

The head of the Tauros popped open revealing the group standing there with their Pokemon at the ready.

Jessie: Prepare for Troub-

They got cut off by a familiar Rhyhorn tackling square into them and immediately sending them flying yelling out "Team Rocket's blasting off again!! x 3"

The Rhyhorn stopped after crashing into the metal, Beedrill came flying over calmly, holding everyone on a web safely and putting them down, on the ground, some looking calmer than others.
