The  Rocket-Mart    by  Blue9Tiger

  It was  raining  at  the  town of Lavender. That was a rare occurence, because Lavender
Town was always dark, but without rain. 
The  Poke'mon Mart had just closed for the night, and the shopkeeper was busy tallying the day's total,
when suddenly, two Rockets appeared in his doorway. 
  "Oh, no, what do you want?"
  "If you require to know who we are..."
  "NO!  STOP WITH THE MOTTO! We KNOW who you are, and I'm 'outta here!"
  With that, the man grabbed his cash register, having no success at pulling it out.
  "OH, NOOOO! Will you guys help me with this?!! I have to get away from you!"
  "No, we'd just steal---"
  "SHUT UP, James!" Cried Jessie, silencing  him with a paper fan.
  "Meeeeowth, whadda dope."
  "We'd be glad to help you with it!" She answered in a sweet voice. 
But  then she realized that she couldn't pull the register out, either.
"James, help us!"
It was obviously and order, not a plea, and James cursed this fanfic for being Comedy and not JAJRN.
But it was his chance to push the storyline toward that category. 
He grabbed Jessie's two large  (CRASH), and she screamed, slamming him on the head. 
  "DON'T GRAB THERE, YOU IGNORAMOUS!"
  "I'm not ignorant of those! They're huge!"
  "How about I make that lump exactly the same size?! RRRRGHHH!"
  Meanwhile, the shopkeeper struggled with the cash register. Meowth decided
to loosen  it with his claws. Half an hour later, it was out, but the money
had fallen out because Meowth ripped holes in it.
  "Whoops, guess I was strongah 'dan I 'tought..."
  "AAAAAAAHHH! My cash register! That's it, I'm leaving! You can have the cash register! 
In fact, you can have the store! I'm going to get my brain transplanted!"
  "Uuh, there's no such thing!" James called.
  But the man had  already left the store, leaving Jessie and James to take care
of  his Mart.
  "Now ya've BOTH done it! We 'gotta get 'dis place fixed up befohe we get 
custahmers!"
  "Customers?! You don't mean we're actually going to SELL things here?"
  "What about Pikachu?"
  "Meeeeowth, It's 'da poyfect way to get some quick cash!"
  "If we're recognized, we'll get a QUICK ride to jail!" James whined.
  "No, we won't, James! Lavender Town citizens are incredibly ignorant to 
our imaginitive insubordination against the incredulous government!"
  "HA-HA! YOU COULDN'T MATCH 'DA LAST WOYD! YOU USED A "G" WOYD, INSTEAD
OF AN "I" WOYD, WHICH WAS  PART OF YOUH ALLITERATION!!"
  "If you don't quit laughing at me, I'll call you the "B" word, then
the other "B" word, then the "GD" "Y" "F" "A" "T" "H", and then I'll kick
your scrawny "A" to "H"!!!"
  "Oh, look who knows her "ABCs!!"
  "You'd bettuh luhn  them befohe youh teeth fall out. But, being the 
old hag you ahe, that'll be pretty soon!"
  "RRRRRGHHHHHH!! Butch, since when did you take CASSIDY's lines?!"
  "Huh?"
  "Cassidy's always insulting me, you never do, why the sudden switch?"
  "Maybe they're-----soulmates!"  cried James.
  "'Fess up, you two! You love each other! Go and kiss before I have a 
chance to throw you out of our store!"
  Butch and Cassidy suddenly turned a bright red, not able to hide their 
feelings any longer. They turned so red that an Electabuzz and Scyther ran 
through the door, with the purpose of beating them up.
  When stars where swirling above their heads, and enough to fill
the Milky Way, and then another galaxy, they kissed.
  "OOoooooooohhhhhhh!!" James squealed, grabbing a camera. Unfortunately,
it was out of film. He grabbed some from the  counter and snapped the
picture, then gave it to Jessie.
  "Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha-haaa!!! If you don't help us running the Poke'mon Center--I mean---"
  Suddenly, Nurse Joy walked in. 
  "What do you mean by "The Poke'mon Center"? I run that."
  "Sorry, I was just-----"
  "Oh! So you think you can just take my line, right?"
  "Listen, will you---"
  "You think you have the brains and the looks to run the Poke'mon
Center?!"
  "The looks, but not the---"
  "Are you trying to barge in on my profession?!!"
  "NO! I wouldn't be a Poke'mon Nurse in a million---"
  "But you used my line?!!!"
  "Uhhhhhh......"
  "YOU USED MY LINE!!!!!!! HERE I AM, A SUPPORTING ROLE, WITH A FEW LINES,
AND YOU'RE A MAIN CHARACTER, WITH ALL THE LINES, AND YOU STOLE MY 
LINNNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
  "Okay, that's enough. Joy, you can scream all you want at the stationhouse!"
  "SHE STOLE MY LINEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!"
  Meowth looked at the audience, and declared,
  "Here's a lesson: Don't scream above 90 Decibels when ya 3 FT away from
'da cops' HQ."
  "As I was saying......If you don't help us run the  Poke'mon MART,
we'll develop these pictures and send them to the "Unlikely Marriages" 
newspaper!!!"
  "Noooooo!  Please, Jess, be a pal and don't!!"
  "Good, then help us run this!!"
  The  next day, Butch was arranging the different levels of Potions on  the shelf.
  "Lets see what we got, hehe. Poke'Potion, Great Potion, Ultra Potion,
Master Potion, GS Potion---wait a 'sec!! Meowth, wehe you messing with
the Potions?!"
  "Meowth?"
  "Don't play nohmal! Tell me!"
  "Nya-nyaaaaaaaaa!!"
  "VERY  FUNNY. Put a translation, hehe."
  "Meowth-Meeeowthh!"
  He leaped on top of Butch and used Fury Swipes. The latter grew red
with anger, and was beat up by the  Scyther and  Electabuzz again.
  "Here they are, Butch. Ten Revives."
  "I didn't want Revives. I wanted the right Potions."
  "What's wrong with the Revives?"
  "CASSIDYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY-----" 
  He cut himself off, looking out the window to see Jenny.
  "Meowth, give those Potions back, NOW!" Jessie commanded, stomping 
on his head, and his eyes bulging out so wide that a person with 20/70
vision could see them.
  "Meeeeeowthhh! Okay, okay! 'Dey're in my-----Meoowthhhhhh!!"
  James pried open the Scratchcat's mouth, finding all of the Potions.
  "Do you have a Staryu to clean this off? Ewwwww."
  That afternoon, customers finally came in, only to find that the 
Mart was lacking Revives, because Cassidy had the smarts to place them
next to the Poke'Balls, and there was a fainted Eevee on the shelf who
was conveniently at half energy after the Revives were gone.
  "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-----"
  "That's enough!"
  "------KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY!!!"
"Now we have  more Revives!"
  "I am not a chemist....I am not a chemist..I am not a chemist.." Cassidy
repeated to  herself. She mixed up a terrible-smelling mix of 
junk, and was prepared to test some on her fainted Raticate, when the
customers poured in.
  "WE WANT REVIVES! WE WANT REVIVES! WE WANT REVIVES!"
  "Okay, fine! Here's your Revives!"
  "Thanks, creeps!" shouted the customers.  
An hour later, they returned and complained,
  "STUPIDS! These aren't Revives! They don't work right! You should
have RAISED the  prices, not drop them!"
  "Why not?" asked James, arranging Great Balls on the shelf.
  "These are  Max Revives!"
  Cassidy sighed in relief, and Jessie, James, Butch, and Meowth were
pleasantly surprised that it had worked so well.
  "Okay, now I'll try and make a Max Potion!" declared Cassidy.
  Unfortunately, that Potion had the opposite effect, and it killed 
every single Poke'mon exposed to it, including their Trainers.
  "Cassidy, you idiot! What did you put in that?!"
  "Essence of Koffing, Syrup of Weezing, Acid of Ekans, Aroma of Primeape,
Eyes of Grimer, Ass of Muk, Big Purple Glob, Original Potion, Original
Revive, Poison of Frogs....."
  "Cassidy, you're more of a witch!" James exclaimed.
  "(sighhhhhhhhhhhhh) Oh, well, we'd better close the shop before 
we mess anything else up and lose money."
  "RRRGGGHH, don't you mean YOU mess anything?!"
  "True, true," Butch seconded.
  "Guess it's back to capturing Pikachu."
  "Meowth, 'dat's right!"
  "And it's back to the getting caught."
  "That's right."
  With that, they left the Poke'Mart, which was later taken over by 
other Rockets, who sold the Max Revives but not the Max Potions.
Then they were driven out of business because the Lavender Town Poke'mon
Mart wasn't supposed to have either Max Revives or Max Potions.
