In the last episode Timmy goes ‘gaga’ over a large piece of wood…

“Excuse me. I couldn’t help but notice how much you seem to like that 
particular
weapon.” Timmy’s face turned red, “Oh sorry sir, I didn’t mean to bother 
you.”
The man smiled and said, “No problem at all. In fact I would be willing to 
buy it
for you…” Timmy was ecstatic, “You would!” “…I will on one condition.” The
man replied. Timmy grew immediately suspicious, “What condition?” “I have
need of a pokemon that I can monitor during a fight. I’m researching how
effective certain attacks are on certain pokemon. Since you have a pokeball 
on
your belt I figured that you trained pokemon. Maybe you could let me borrow 
one
of your pokemon for a day? I promise that it will be perfectly healed once 
I’m
done.” The man finished. Timmy thought about the offer. Well maybe a day 
would
be fine. Yes, a day. “Ok, I will let you borrow my Machop for a day if you 
buy me
the Bo. But you must buy it for me now.” “Deal!” the man said. “If you will 
just
wait right here for a minute I will go and purchase the staff…” “Bo,” Timmy
corrected. The man continued, “Bo, and we can trade. By the way, my name is
Jared Caon. And if you need your pokemon back for some reason or another, 
I’ll
be staying at the hotel down the road and to the left.” With that, Jared 
went into
the store and soon purchased the Bo. Timmy waited outside patiently. A few
minutes later Jared returned with the Bo in hand. “Here’s the Bo and in 
return I
would like your Machop for the day. You can come and retrieve it tonight at
eight.” “Ok. Thank you.” Timmy said as he took the Bo and gave Jared his
pokeball containing Machop. “Alright then. I guess I’ll see you tonight.” 
The man
said. “Ok.” Timmy replied. They both walked back to their hotels, which
incidentally are on opposite ends of town. Later that day Timmy walked over 
to
the place Jared had said where he was staying to check on Machop. When Timmy
got to the area he couldn’t find a hotel! Timmy tried asking around if there 
was a
hotel nearby. However, everyone he met said there was no hotel! Timmy tried 
the
street on the other side of the road, but to no avail. Jared wasn’t in any 
of those
places. Timmy ran over to the Pokemon Center, thinking that maybe Jared was
there testing. But when Timmy asked for him the nurse grew pale and told 
him,
“Jared. You mean Jared Caon?” Timmy began to feel uncomfortable, “Umm, Yes
that’s the name he gave me.” The nurse then said, “I’m sorry but you 
probably
wont see your machop ever again. You see Jared Caon is a pokemon thief and 
he
will often trick people into giving him their pokemon, which he then sells 
over
seas for a large sum of money. Chances are he’s halfway to Pewter City 
airport, if
he doesn’t have a car.” Timmy grew determined, “Well I’m gonna stop him
anyway!” Timmy ran out of the Pokemon Center to his hotel. Timmy raced up to
his room where he gathered all his belongings, checked out, and ran towards
Viridian Forest. After many hours and a few run ins with trainers that tried 
to
challenge him, Timmy was about halfway through the forest. Another hour or 
two
and Timmy heard a familiar voice, Jared! It looked like he was forcing a 
girl
(about Timmy’s age) to ‘lend’ him her pokemon. Timmy was slowly creeping
around the woods encircling the clearing Jared was in. Timmy then stumbled 
on
something. It was his machop!
