SUPERMARKET SLEEPERS
 
Well now.... after they're scenic, nauseous for TR, beneficial for world 
domination for Togepi... AHEM!!! After their ride on the Magnet Train... 
the Twerp parade has arrived in Saffron City. They board off the train and 
begin to float around Saffron City at parade speed. Then..... only 
then...... do our beloved collection of misfits..... speak. 
 
"That ride was just soooo COOOOOOL!", screams a certain long haired hippie 
talking like an airhead. No.... that wasn't James... but it is Crystal 
making that outburst. And she did have reason to enjoy that ride. A roomy 
private booth with tons of room to store...... let's call it personal 
property this time, a nice and attractive older gentlemen, as well as a 
hot, young redhead who doesn't have to worry about being leeched by Togepi 
inside the train since Togepi can just look out the window and coerce its
message to dem hillbillies livin by dem train tracks. 
 
So you see, Crystal has had much to enjoy on that recent train ride. 
 
"All of these rides just keep getting bigger, better, fancier, more eye 
poppin'", notes Justin. "And speaking of eye-poppin, look around at all of 
these buildings. The size of these buildings never fails to impress me 
every time I come.", notes Misty as Togepi parades down the street with 
Misty getting yet another chance to spread its message of world invasion. 
 
Hmmmmmmmmm...... so that explains why the twerps are parading through the 
street. Togepi gets to claim more souls to help lead its invasion as its 
primary slave Misty chauffers it up and down the streets of Saffron City. 
Man..... Togepi is getting more and more devious nowadays. 
 
After Justin agrees with Misty, she then asks Crystal what she's going to 
do first. "Well", remarks Cris-tal who sounds totally stoned, "There's a 
gym here right? Let's go challenge the gym leader!" She, Pikachu, and 
Sandshrew begin to take off before Justin yells, "Wait!" Obviously, the 
pimp is looking out for his prospects. 
 
"You haven't even been in any pokemon battles yet. Are you sure you want to 
challenge the gym leader right away?", asks Justin. Misty agrees with the 
older, studlier man adding, "And the gym leader here is extremely tough." 
But Crystal retorts Ash has said that his pokemon are at a high level and 
she further claims that Sandshrew is well experienced, too. 
 
"Ash says a lot of things that can be somewhat cockamamie", sighs Misty 
about her crippled boyfriend. Justin then takes this opportunity to tease 
Misty which he'll never learn is a mistake. He tells her, "Like when he 
says he doesn't have a crush on you?" Misty responds by slapping him silly 
yelling, "WHAT THE HELL IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?", as Togepi roars in 
delight at the violence. 
 
Crystal tries to mediate like a good little hippie telling the two not to 
fight and she tells them to come with her into the gym. "Okay!" they both 
groan (Misty in frustration.... Justin in dizziness after being smacked 
around by a little girl) as they walk off towards the opposite direction. 
 
But then we notice a tired and bruised Team Rocket following them. "Ha... 
the twerps are in sight! Let's quick swipe Pikachu and that other sand 
rat", commands Jessie. But Meowth and James are too tired to run too fast. 
Jessie asks what's wrong and Meowth tells her, "Next time ya want ta tie a 
mine car to the edge of a Magnet Train, try to find a car dat's less 
bumpy!" "I'm tired of riding bumpy machinery!", groans James in yet another 
hilarious quote. 
 
He's probably telling Jessie that he doesn't want to ride on her G-train 
anymore. And I know that all you male dodgers want to board on.... I know 
y'all do!!!!!!!! 
 
Jessie then doesn't want to hear of James pleas of no more rapings so she 
yells at them, "Ooooooohhh! Just catch your breath and hurry up or we'll 
lose those twerps!" James and Meowth don't want another whipping from 
Jessie so James makes the best of the situation by agreeing to her and 
thinking about a nice piece of ass from long ago. "Roger!", he yells to 
Jessie as the trio races to catch up with their stoned adversaries. 
 
Hmph.... now "our heroes" have to do battle with not only with sentimental 
crap. But now they're taking on the war on drugs. 
 
They begin running but then we notice a yellow face sensing danger. And as 
Team Rocket is racing towards Cris-tal and Co., they run smack dab into an 
invisible wall made by this Hypno who is walking along with a trainer. The 
guy, who looks like a rock star reject, scolds his Hypno not to make 
invisible barriers randomly on the street and then he yells at it to come 
with him to the store. 
 
As Hypno walks dejectedly moping "Hypno", TR is also moping about the wall 
they smashed into as the inconsiderate pretty boy doesn't even check to see 
if they're okay. "Well this soitainly halts our plans!", PUN-ishes Meowth. 
"We've been running into many unseen obstacles lately!", moans James as 
Wobbuffet makes its appearance as it scratches it head uttering, "Wobbuh."
 
 
<cue intro> 
 
 
We cut back to our new Team Toyboy who is still looking for the Saffron 
City gym so Crystal can challenge that freaky Sabrina. Misty then remembers 
that the gym is around the next corner of the block they are on. So they 
turn the corner and Crystal spots the gym and she encourages everyone to 
let's go as Pikachu and Sandshrew cheer in excitement. 
 
They get to the front of the gym while Justin asks them to slow down 
claiming he low on energy which is probably from that weed that Cris-tal 
made him smoke during their train orgy. Everyone is about to enter the gym 
when a mysterious voice calls out to them, "You here to challenge the gym 
leader?"
 
They turn around to notice that same punk rock loser who's out doing some 
shopping for his mummy as well as his Hypno. 
 
Crystal tells the guy arrogantly that she's going to do just that. But the 
guy says that she's just wasting her time. So Crystal yells back, "What? 
You think I'm not good enough?" "Well, probably not. But that's not why I'm 
stopping you!", says the man. Misty shouts at him why he stopping them as 
they all give him a sinister look. The mama's boy answers, "Because the gym 
leader isn't there and she's not going to be for quite awhile." 
 
"Why not?", asks Crystal in shock until Justin tells them all to look at 
sign. Crystal, Misty, Pikachu, Sandshrew, and evil Togepi all read the sign 
which says that the gym leader is on vacation and won't be back for at 
least another week. "Oh great... now what am I supposed to do?", gasps 
Crystal. 
 
Justin tells the little crack ho to relax and he assures her that they 
don't have to rush through the Kanto League right away. Togepi makes its 
slave Misty tell Crystal, "Besides... I'm getting hungry. Let's go grab a 
bite to eat and enjoy Saffron City while we're here." "That's a wonderful 
idea, Misty", says Crystal as Pikachu yells, "Pika-chu", to congratulate 
Togepi on its hunger pains timings. 
 
The mama's boy then decides to interrupt our trio again saying that he's 
headed to Stop-n-Shop (a supermarket) nearby and that they're welcome to 
follow him if they want. He then introduces himself as Gavin and apologizes 
for being rude at first but he was only saying all that because the Saffron 
gym leader is so tough. Crystal then also apologizes for her attitude 
asking Gavin (mama's boy extraordinale) if he frequents the gym. 
 
He says that he does and that he trains there with his Hypno all the time 
against the other psychic pokemon. He says that he's been training so hard 
that they've won many key battles together but yet he has still never been 
able to defeat the gym leader. 
Ahahaha...................................... LOSER! 
 
On their way to the supermarket, Crystal tells him if he keeps working at 
it, then she's sure he'll beat that gym leader someday and blah blah blah. 
But Justin then adds, "As for today... let's stock up on supplies at the 
supermarket!" They all rejoice as they dream about what food they're going 
to eat. 
 
"I'm going to buy all the ice cream sandwiches that I could possibly 
hold!", gapes Misty. Justin states, "I'm going to have a hot dog or two... 
mmmmmmmmm!" "And I'm just going to get as many goodies as I possibly can.", 
declares Crystal. "Shrew shrew!", adds Sandshrew proclaiming its hunger as 
well as does Pikachu uttering, "Pika-pikachu!" 
 
They finally arrive at the supermarket and arrive on a sight that would 
make Ash throw an enormous tempertantrum. A 36-wheeler truck containing 
circus Snorlax?? has tipped over on a Saffron City street falling right in 
front of the supermarket entrance. The Snorlax who were being transported 
in the truck are sealing off the other entrance. Apparently, they fell out 
and have landed conveniently in front of the other entrance and are 
sleeping so they can’t be moved. 
 
Now Ash would take to action hero antics here and try to lift the 36-
wheeler over his head and throw it far away in an effort to impress Misty. 
But we're not dealing with Ash here kiddies..... because Ash is now 
physically (in addition to emotionally) crippled. Team Toyboy et al. gasp 
at the carnage at the scene as well as the long line just to get into the 
store. Gavin complains that it'll take forever before he gets all the food 
that he needs (from his mama's shopping list I bet). 
 
"Well... what are we going to do?", asks Crystal. "Well", suggests Misty, 
"There are many other stores and businesses around here... let's go check 
them out." Justin utters, "Eh..... might as well..... but I was really 
looking forward to getting those hot dogs!", making Misty, Pikachu, and 
Crystal show a sweat drop.
 
Make of that what you will.... 
 
They invite Gavin and Hypno (another Abbott and Costello in the making, 
no?) to come along with them while they do whatever. But unbeknownst to 
them, they're being watched by Team Rocket thanks to their super-senses 
binoculars. "There they are.... found them again", states Jessie looking 
from up top of a building. Meowth sighs that at least they caught up with 
them again as they normally do. Jessie then continues, "And they're with 
that kid and his Hypno we crashed into!" 
 
"Well I for one think that the furry little psychic brat should pay for 
messing with us.", shouts James. Jessie then adds, "Yes.... and so should 
that Hypno!", as a rim shot rings in everyone's ears. "Well den there's 
only one ting we must do!", proclaims Meowth, "We must swipe dat Hypno 
along with Pikachu and Sandshrew!" 
 
"Aha", states Jessie as TR shows bright smiles while the background becomes 
colorful, "That will be Team Rocket's #1 (her cute belly rumbles).... 
uh....... eehhh ............ I mean Team Rocket's #2 priority!" This change 
of thought makes James and Meowth fall over. "I'm so hungry", moans Jessie 
(GETCHA MINDS OUTTA DA GUTTA!), "We have to get some food!" 
 
James then enters gay family flashback sequence telling Jessie, "I remember 
that there's an enormous supermarket right nearby.... I used to go there 
all the time when I visited Grand-ma-ma!" "Okay!", shouts Jessie who's now 
pushing a shopping carriage with Meowth in the little seat part where 
mothers put babies. "Let's go shopping!", she proclaims with true valley 
girl style as they pretend to be in one of the aisles of the supermarket. 
 
However, when they get there they observe the same scene that the others 
saw with all the entrances being blocked. Jessie squeals in panic shouting, 
"How will I ever fill my voracious little appetite?" Meowth then unwisely 
interrupts her saying, "I tought your appetite could neva be satisfied." 
This earns Meowth a pounding from a pissed off Jessie. 
 
But James intervenes trying to hold back Jessie saying, "Wait Jessie... 
it's okay it's okay... while we wait for the supermarket to reopen, we can 
come up with a plan to swipe all of those pokemon!" Jessie dejectedly 
cowers, "I guess so!" 
 
Back with the other trio, Crystal tells everyone that they've got to pass 
some time while the supermarket is blocked off. So she asks what they 
should do. Misty says that she spots a beauty salon nearby and that she's 
going to get her hair done. This leads Justin to ask her, "Isn't your hair 
done as it is?" Misty answers him, "A woman's hair can never be totally 
done.... come on Togepi let's go!" She then yells back to them that they'll 
be back in a little while.
 
Hmmph... it looks like Togepi is bored with her hairstyle now. So now the 
freaky egg thingy has her changing her hairstyle so it has a new form of 
life it can leech off of Misty.
 
"Okay Justin", says Crystal, "I'm going to make a phone call and then 
organize my belongings." And we all know that means Crystal has to get a 
new supply from her dealer..... but wait till you read who her dealer is 
today. She then asks him what he's going to do and if he wants to come with 
her (so they can be......... alone......). But Justin replies that he's 
going to try to help out with the accident and then he calls out his 
Nidoqueen and tells it to do all its heavy lifting for him.
 
Justin then leaves as Crystal comments, "Some people will train even during 
the toughest of times", hiding the rage she has that Justin chose a big 
smelly jagged Nidoqueen over her. But then Gavin makes his move saying that 
he'll accompany her for the time being. She thanks him and then adds that 
maybe when she's through with her business (like getting her drug supply 
back up), they can have a little pokemon battle. 
 
"We're up for that!", retorts a determined Crystal as Sandshrew and Pikachu 
each give the punk rock weirdo a smart-ass, 'I'm better than you' smile. 
"Shrew shrew!", cries Sandshrew while Pikachu rests on top of Sandshrew's 
head shouting, "Pi-pikachu!" 
 
 
<cue commercial> Who's that pokemon?? 
 ...... It's Exeggutor................................ "Exeggutor!"  
 
 
We see Crystal on her videophone ready to talk to her dealer. The phone is 
answered and the person on the other line reveals himself to 
be................. Prof. Oak!!!!
 
Okay..... we knew he was a pervert already and that he's been screwing 
Ash's mother rotten for many, many years. But this may just take the cake! 
"Oh Crystal!", utters Prof. Oak pretending to notice Crystal, "How are 
things going in the Kanto League so far?" She answers that things are going 
pretty well and that she's made some new friends and is in Saffron City 
already.
 
"Wow! Sounds like you're doing very well for yourself.... I knew you'd make 
out okay", answers Old Man Oak. "Ash said recently that you wanted to speak 
to me! What's going on?", says Crystal acting as if she has no idea what he 
has for her.
 
Oak says he got some things for her.... (see.... told ya!). He then 
mentions to Crystal that Ash also has several extra pokemon at his 
bordello/freak show ranch that Crystal can use. "Oh wow.... I wasn't even 
aware of that. What other pokemon do Ash have?", asks Crystal.
 
"Well", grins Old Man Oak as Muk jumps onto the screen and attempts to rape 
him again but he holds off the slimeball so he can speak. "Ha ha ha... 
you've got Muk here... he's definitely a people person." You heard it 
here dodgers..... Muk is totally into people.... not just into say...... 
umm.... other Muks. Oak adds, "There's also the clever and cunning 
Kingler!", he adds as Kingler jumps into view while Oak begins his corny 
alliterations. "..... plus there's the terrifically tough Tauros.... the 
sensational super-sized Snorlax.... and the heroically horned Heracross."
 
Hmmm..... bet everyone $20 that he REALLY meant to say heroically horny 
Heracross. Well... all of the pokemon make their appearances including the 
perverted Heracross whom lands on the dirty Professor's back and tries to 
hump him. But Muk gets envious of this and and tackles Heracross trying to 
rape it instead. Heracross then just laughs and enjoys the fun of Muk all 
over its body. 
 
And so goes life on the ranch of that perverted sicko.... Prof. Oak and his 
powerfully perverted pokemon.
 
Crystal then wows and says she never had any idea of how many pokemon Ash 
has had. She still doesn't...... she has no idea of the several pokemon 
that Ash has given away including one all mighty Charizard. Oak then 
continues in the midst of all the pokemon perversion and tells Crystal that 
he has a couple more things for her.
 
Hmmm.... it has just become dodgier in this room. 
 
Oak gives her Ash's pokedex and he tells her she can use it to identify 
pokemon for reference. So now not only has Cris-tal sweet talked her way 
into Ash's pokemon... she now has his identity, too. (Remember, pokedexes 
are used for identification.) So now Dexter is back.... but that's not all. 
Oak also says that he has some useful goodies for her.
 
We notice in the bag that there is a lot of green and brown material that 
looks like dirt and leaves. So Crystal receives her "care package" from the 
dirty old man and she thanks him (for giving her a new stash of hemp). Oak 
reminds her to remember to use the pokedex and Ash's other pokemon if she 
needed it. She thanks Oaky and hangs up to let him tend to his 
business....... his dirty business with those dirty pokemon...... and Mrs. 
Ketchum.
 
"It must be really great to have an expert like Prof. Oak on your side", 
says Gavin towards Crystal. Apparently he knows a thing or two about the 
drug business as well. Crystal does tell him that it's an extra bonus to 
have a perverted old man on her side. She then asks him if he wants to 
battle her now. Gavin then replies with the simple yet ever infamous dodgy 
line, "Let's do it!" Hypno adds, "Hypno", cuz after all.... whose says it 
doesn't want some action. 
 
Yeah..... and who also says that the weird looking teddy bear looking thing 
has never gotten laid by another pokemon. When you think about it.... it 
probably puts other pokemon to sleep by accident just before it gets to the 
best part. That is.... if the weird looking thing ever got that far. 
 
They go outside to have their battle right out on the street in the middle 
of traffic. Doesn't matter there.... cuz in the pokemon world, all those 
f*cked up pokemon people will stop what they're doing just to watch a 
little pokemon battle on the street. But when they get outside the 
videophone booth and get back onto the sidewalk, Crystal, Pikachu, 
Sandshrew, Gavin, and Hypno all fall into a ditch that was hidden on the 
sidewalk.
 
"How did this massive pothole get here?", asks Gavin with Hypno landing 
upside-down on him. He adds, "This city must be doing a horrendous job with 
construction." Crystal utters, "Ugh.... <cough>.... somehow I don't think 
this was an accident!" with Sandshrew landing right on her gut along with 
Pikachu. 
 
That is when three voices from above begin laughing. "Welcome to our little 
pitfall!", shouts Meowth. 
 
"Ha! This isn't an accident so prepare for trouble!"
"Your deep in the hole now so make it double!"
"To protect the world from devastation"
"To unite all peoples within our nation"
"To denounce the evils of truth and love"
"To extend our reach to the stars above"
"Jessie"
"James" 
"Yeah yeah yeah! I've heard it all before too many times already", 
interrupts Crystal. "And I'm not giving you any of my pokemon so you'd 
better just move on", she says proving she has no idea about what TR is all 
about. Gavin then decides to stick his nose in this thang shouting, "Who 
are you?! ... and what do you think you're doing?" He then realizes who the 
trio is from the earlier encounter. 
 
Jessie then cuts them all off screaming, "How dare you! You little 
twerps.... never ever interrupt the TR motto again!" "Now let's start off 
where we were so rudely interrupted!", sneers James. 
 
"Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light"
"Surrender now or prepare to fight"
Then there is a long pause as they wait for Wobbuffet to say its line. 
"Where's that camera hog?", says Jessie annoyed. "Ah.... screw him. We can 
skip right through him while it snoozes..... heh heh... that's right!" 
 
"This.... is the most important thing for you?", asks Crystal. Jessie 
answers, "The motto is like our identity." "We can't go through this 
without saying it", adds James. Meowth jumps in to say, "But anotta ting 
dat makes us who we are is what we do! And dat's stealin your precious 
pokemon." He then pushes a button on this strange two-handed fishing rod 
that grabs Pikachu and Sandshrew. 
 
Crystal shouts, "No!", in protest as any dumb good guy would say after 
their pokemon has been stolen. "Ha ha", laughs James, "That two-handed claw 
truly does make the trouble double, Meowth." "But wait... we ain't done 
yet!", adds Meowth as Jessie uses a stick to extend a giant sack that 
captures Hypno.
 
"Hypno.... no!", shouts the punk-haired mama's boy while demands that they 
give back their pokemon. As if that would ever work. Jessie responds 
pretending to try and think of a way to break the news to them. She says, 
"Hmmmmmm..... how can I say this so that you twerps can 
understand?......... ahhh.... no no NO! Ahahahahahaha!" 
 
 
"You're not smart and you're not funny so I guess you'll have to learn the 
hard way..... thunderbolt 'em Pikachu!", responds Crystal as Pikachu 
obliges but the double reel thing is shockproof of course. So after TR 
points out that the machine is shockproof, Crystal has Sandshrew try a 
sandstorm attack ...... but..... the device also has a little vacuum that 
sucks up the sand and throws it back in the faces of the two kids. 
 
"Ahahahahaha!", quips James, "All of that energy of yours twerp is being 
thrown right back in your face." Crystal groans and has Sandshrew stop the 
attack. Jessie concludes, "Well... you've been a pothole that's made our 
quest very bumpy. So it's only poetic justice that you end up in something 
that you are so used to being." "Speak for yourselves!", retorts Crystal. 
Meowth then says they don't have time to squabble and that they've got to 
wobble on out of here.
 
That is when Wobbuffet finally decides to appear and spread its message of, 
"Wobb!" once more. "We didn't say get Wobbuffet out of here so get back in 
your pokeball so we can get away or I'll begin to consider going away 
without you!!", shouts Jessie as it calls back Wobbuffet. "Wobbuh!", shouts 
Wobbuffet once more before being sucked back into its pokeball. "Ta ta 
twerps", yells James as they run off. 
 
"Our pokemon!", gasps Gavin, "And how are we going to get out of this 
hole!" "Team Rocket has to pay!", yells Crystal, "But don't worry Gavin.... 
I can get us out of this rut we're in! Go Bulbasaur!" The hard-ass pokemon 
then comes out shouting its name and sounding more pissed than usual. 
Bulbasaur then uses its vine whip at the request of Crystal and it pulls 
all of them out of the hole. Gavin thanks Crystal and then they go chase 
after TR.
 
The afformentioned Team Rocket is strolling through the street with their 
stolen pokemon in tow. James then decides to blurt out, "You know.... every 
time use the pitfall plan, we've had our easiest successes." "When have you 
eva had success?", screams back Meowth before Jessie stops the fiery 
scratch-cat and laughing, "Ha ha. I guess he likes to dream!" James moans 
back, "I have to or else life is no fun for me! This world is so cruel!" 
 
Hmmm.... read into that what you will. 
 
"Hey!" shouts out Cris-tal who has now found them. TR looks back and 
notices the two after them with Bulbasaur flanking Crystal. "Daaaaaaaah!", 
screams Meowth, "We're goin ta have ta pick up da pace!", as they begin to 
run away with Crystal and Gavin in pursuit. 
 
Crystal shouts that they have to find a way to slow down TR. That is when 
Gavin yells out to Hypno to try and stop them with a psychic attack. 
Somehow from inside the bag, Gavin's Hypno is able to use telekinesis and 
it levitates TR thanks to the fact that it is well trained. Jessie asks 
what happened and James answers, "It appears that we're frozen in time."
 
Crystal takes the opportunity to get her pokemon back having Bulbasaur use 
vine whip to pull Pikachu and Sandshrew free. Hypno gets free when James 
drops the bag that was carrying it in. Crystal welcomes back Sandshrew as 
mama's boy congratulates Hypno on a job well done. "Okay Pikachu... give 
them a nice blazin' thunderbolt", commands Crystal in true druggie fashion. 
 
Pikachu fries TR and then goes back to Crystal to be patted. "Hey Jess", 
groans James, "What do we have in common with that supermarket?" "I dunno, 
what?", replies Meowth. "We're work to try and make a living... but we're 
always getting shut down at inconvenient times", he answers to his unfunny 
joke. Wobbuffet then comes out to try and console him and to stop him from 
telling any more stupid jokes.
 
Crystal then shouts at them that she'll finally have them arrested by the 
corrupt cops that let her float around with all she's got. Jessie then 
quips, "Well twerp, you can thank the two inconveniences I have following 
m........ huh?" She then notices that something is starting to sizzle as 
does James and Meowth. "Daaaaaaaaaaahhh! Da two pronged fishin reel is 
short circuitin and it's gonna blow!!!", panics Meowth. 
 
Wobbuffet patiently wobbuhs as James nervously states, "So does this mean 
we're going to blast off again?" "I'd say the chances of that are pretty 
good", says Jessie with a touch of irony. And then low and behold.... the 
machine thingy blows sending them sky high. 
 
"Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh!", they all scream as Wobbuffet 
punctuates it with a "Wobb!" 
 
"So that was Team Rocket!", notes Gavin, "Are they always that annoying?" 
"Fraid so! They just keep following me ever since I entered the Kanto 
League.", utters Crystal in response, "but I guess Misty would know more 
about them than I do..... at least.... so far." Gavin then kisses her ass 
about how great it is for her to compete in the Kanto League and then he 
says that he wants to be good enough to compete in that league. "Thanks.... 
I just hope I can compete with all the other tough trainers out here..... 
like you!", replies Crystal.  
 
"Oh yeah that reminds me....... before we were so rudely interrupted, I 
believe you challenged me to a pokemon battle.... you ready?", states Gavin 
as Crystal says she is ready. She then tells her pokemon that its their 
first battle in Kanto and asks if their ready. Pikachu, Sandshrew, and 
Bulbasaur all aggressively shout out in readiness. 
 
Gavin and Crystal have their little staredown as then Gavin announces that 
he's going with Hypno. Whew..... big surprise there! Crystal then goes with 
Bulbasaur to battle Hypno. Pikachu quips, "Pika", as the suspense seems to 
be killing him. Crystal has Bulbasaur use tackle but Hypno's reflect keeps 
Bulbasaur at bay. Bulbasaur then tries razor leaf while Hypno is forced 
down to one knee to use future sight. 
 
Bulbasaur then uses vine whip but Hypno is well trained and evades the vine 
whip and it headbutts Bulbasaur. Crystal then sucks up to Gavin 
complementing about how well trained Hypno is as she watches it whoop 
Bulbasaur's ass. She then orders Bulbasaur to use synthesis that she 
must've found time to teach it while the TV audience wasn’t watching her.
 
Synthesis helps Bulbasaur recover some energyand Crystal is psyched that 
Bulbasaur gets back up. (Although I probably think that it was such a 
tough-ass pokemon that it got up on its own anyway.) Bulbasaur psychs 
itself up shouting Bulbasaur and then attacking with another tackle attack. 
Crystal then has Bulbasaur try to finish off Hypno with a razor leaf but 
before it can.... a sharp pain engulfs Bulbasaur like it has become 
constipated. "Uh oh.... I forgot about that future sight attack", remembers
Crystal and Bulbasaur is down.
 
Hypno then seems to finish off Bulbasaur with its psychic powers as it 
tosses Bulbasaur up and down the sidewalk before leaving Bulbasaur to rot. 
But Bulbasaur is a survivor and it won't be taken down that easily. So when 
Crystal encourages it to try and get up, it does despite all the bruises 
present on its plant/animal whatever it is body. 
 
 
Crystal has Bulbasaur use vine whip but Gavin, who is stunned that 
Bulbasaur didn't faint yet, yells for Hypno to hurry and use confusion. 
This... Hypno does just in time before the vine whip can whoop Hypno's ass. 
The confusion attack finally downs Bulbasaur after a long struggle. And 
thus, Crystal loses her first Kanto league trainer battle. 
 
I'll let all the insensitive assholes laugh at her right now for a moment. 
 
Okay... that's enough. Gavin then complements Crystal about how well 
trained Bulbasaur is. Crystal is flattered but then she claims that she 
didn't train Bulbasaur. She tells him that a friend of hers raised these 
pokemon but he's hurt now and is letting her borrow them for a while so she 
can live out her dream of being a pokemon trainer. Gavin then tells her 
what a great story that is and he says again that she's really impressed at 
the way she handles pokemon that hasn't known very long. He concludes that 
with some more practice, she'll be an extremely formidable contender in the 
Kanto League.
 
Well she didn't say that she was a loser on drugs that got lucky and ended 
up with other people's pokemon to let her compete in the Kanto League. But 
hey...... look on the bright side: at least she was more modest than that 
schmuck Ash would've been. She tells Gavin that next time.... her pokemon 
will be even tougher to defeat and Gavin replies he and Hypno will be ready 
and stronger as well. Crystal thanks Bulbasaur for the ass whipping it 
received and returns it to her pokeball. 
 
Gavin then suggests to her, "I'm sure the supermarket will be open by now! 
You want to go see?" Crystal responds, "That would be a great idea..... I 
haven't eaten anything since breakfast." Sandshrew also answers, "Shrew!", 
while Pikachu on its back also answers to the call of "Pika pika!" as its 
little pika-belly rumbles making Pikachu hold its stomach. 
 
They are walking on their way back towards the Stop-n-Shop when a voice 
cries out to the half-baked duo. "Hey! There you are", shouts Misty. They 
turn around and gaze in astonishment at Misty's new hairstyle (which looks 
like her hairstyle from the G/S games w/o the ponytail). "You like it?", 
she asks as Togepi roars nonstop as its an energy overload from its host. 
"It looks great..... you could turn some heads with your new style", 
compliments Crystal. Misty blushes in embarassment as Gavin tries to hit on 
the little energy starved girl, "You sure turned my head!", and they all 
share a vacant laugh. 
 
They reach up with Justin just outside the Stop-n-Shop to ask how things 
are going. After he greets everyone saying, "I hope your free time went 
well.", he continues, "Well.... the main door is open again. Nidoqueen here 
and a bunch of other pokemon helped move the tipped trucks remains so it 
could be carted out of here." Mullet haired Misty then asks about the door 
blocked by Snorlax. Justin ponders and then tells them that they're still 
passed out in front of the other door. 
 
But Gavin is tired of being a loser and a mama's boy and declares that 
he'll fix that. He has Hypno use its psywave to wake up all the Snorlax 
which moves them in a matter of seconds. And with all those pokemon and 
civilians helping. It should make everyone ponder this question. Just what 
the hell were Officer Jenny and those other police workers doing? 
 
(Warning! Sarcasm alert!) Man..... can't underestimate the value of an 
Officer Jenny. 
 
Speaking of the corrupt devil, she comes over from sitting on her ass and 
thanks the twerps for helping to finally unblock the doors. I mean... with 
all the resources of the city government.... couldn't she figure out how 
solve that problem herself?...... geesh! 
 
Gavin thanks her for another empty compliment as Crystal suggests that they 
all go inside to get some food. And of course all of the twerps and pokemon 
are eager to go inside so they can stuff their faces. After they get all 
the suplies they need now that they magically have money after boarding the 
Magnet Train...... hmmmmm. Wonder if Crystal needed to sell some of her 
gifts she received from Old Man Oak.... 
 
Anyway Crystal thanks Gavin just outside the supermarket for the battle 
adding that it will help her become a smarter trainer. "No problem", 
replies Gavin who has a bunch of bags of food to bring back home to mama. 
"Hey Gavin", says Justin inquisitively, "If the Saffron Gym is going to be 
closed for a while... then where do you think we should go to find the next 
gym?" 
 
Gavin says he believes the next nearest gym is in Vermilion City. He then 
tells Crystal, "When you return here.... look me up and we'll have a 
rematch.", which could mean some kind of slang for 'Thanks for the 
weed'. He looks too burned out not to be on something. "You can count on 
it!" replies Crystal with more hidden msessages as Pikachu pika's on in 
delight at the food along with Hypno who's pushing the shopping cart. 
 
Then then have their good-bye waves with the new Team Toyboy not looking in 
front of them at all and with Gavin shouting good luck messages even though 
the lip movements don't correlate with the number of syllables he's 
uttering. And so on and so forth................ and thus Cris-tal may have 
gotten her ass kicked in her first trainer battle in Kanto... but it was a 
great learning experience. And she also now has a new drinking buddy in 
Saffron City. So the twerps move on and exit Saffron City. 
 
Meanwhile........... later that night........ 
 
TR is walking down the streets of Saffron City bruised and battered after 
yet another trip sky high thanks to Crystal. "Dat goil is more dangerous 
den dat otha twoip", mutters Meowth. "She's getting on my nerves almost 
as much my empty stomach!", adds Jessie beratedly. James then whines, "I 
just want something to eat."
 
They then turn their attention down the street and notice the Stop-n-Shop 
they were trying to get into. "The supermarket!", proclaims Jessie with 
their eyes lighting up. "Eeeeeee", gayly eeeee's James, "Let's super stuff 
our super sacks! (OH FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GETCHA MINDS OUTTA DA GUTTA)" Then 
then rush over to get into the store. 
 
But unfortunately this big fat mean lady locks the door and turns the sign 
around that says OPEN to CLOSED. "Hey.... we need to get in here and do 
some shopping!", yells Jessie. "Sorry.... we're closed!!", forcefully 
blurts out the manager lady. "Hey... I thought you guys were supposed to be 
serviceable and friendly!", yells Jessie again. "We're closed.... no ifs, 
and, buts, or second thoughts. We're closed! And we're only smiling and 
friendly during business hours!", yells the bitch as she then leaves into 
the store.
 
"Oh well", states Jessie looking like she's beginning to cry (and I know 
you'd want to console her), "Everyone else gets all the gourmet meals and 
luxury." "Yeah", adds a whining James, "And it looks like we're forced to 
making due with 7-11's." See..... every good advertisement makes a sinister 
lasting impression on you, especially when it comes from an animated 
celebrity villain.
