Episode 122: Mystery of the disappearing pokemon
“Something is wrong here.” Ash whispered. “I can feel it.”
Lance nodded. < This city has… darkness. No not Clow’s aura of darkness. Something else. >
< I know. >
< We must be careful. >
Just then, they heard screams.
“Stop that, Magnemite!”
“Get away from me, Electrode!”
Two trainers were running away from angry-looking pokemon.
“Pokemon are attacking humans?” Ash asked, shocked.
“Looks like it.” Lance said, pulling out a poke ball. “Okay, Darkstar, you’re up! Go save them.”
Dragonair nodded and flew towards the source of the disturbance.
But suddenly, it shuddered and froze, before turning back towards the two trainers.
“What? Darkstar, what are you doing?!”
The dragonair’s eyes flashed red as it charged up energy in its horn.
“It’s Dragon Rage!” Pika-chan cried. “Take cover!”
Ash quickly pushed Lance down and shielded them with a barrier of electricity. When the area cleared, Dragonair was gone, along with all the other pokemon.
An Officer Jenny rode up on a motorcycle. “What’s the matter?”
Lance was still in shock.
Ash decided to explain. “My friend’s Dragonair disappeared!”
“Another one?”
“What do you mean, another one?”
“For the past month, pokemon around here have been disappearing.” Jenny said. “Nobody knows where they have gone.”
“You don’t have any idea?” Ash asked, desperately.
“No…”
“GASTLY!” A voice suddenly said, as a Gastly popped up in front of them.
“Gastly, I’m working here!” Jenny said.
“I thought Officer Jennies all had Growlithes.” Ash said.
“Well, normally we do…” Jenny said. “I know! Let’s call someone and see what’s going on!”
“Who?”
“Professor Ivy, of course!”
“Professor Ivy?”
Pika-chan nudged Ash. < Ash… why don’t you say something nice to Crystal! She’s still out of it. >
< I would be too, if one of my pokemon suddenly attacked me like that. >
< I know. >
Lance stared blankly ahead, eyes a blank sort of blue.
Luna popped out of her backpack. What’s wrong?
Lance still didn’t answer, so Luna asked Ash.
“We saw some pokemon attacking their trainers, so Crystal sent out one of her Dragonair to help, but suddenly, it began attacking us!”
< That’s terrible! > Luna said.
< I know! What can we do? >
< Let me think. > Luna said, as she sat down. Meanwhile, Jenny placed a call to Professor Ivy.
“Gastly is the only pokemon not affected?”
“Yes.”
“It must be a psychic type attack.”
“Oh!”
“Yes, that would explain a lot.” Ivy continued on, obliviously.
After a while, Jenny cut her off and hung up.
“But where is the signal coming from?” Ash asked Pika-chan who shrugged.
“I’m a psychic type pokemon. I’ll find it.” Luna said. Her eyes closed and she began to emit a faint layer of psychic energy, searching for any disturbances.
“It’s coming from a radio transmitter.” She finally said after a few minutes.
Ash translated for Jenny, who nodded.
“Let’s go!”
Luna nudged Lance, who followed them, still ‘blank’.
Ash sighed. * This is not good… *
Soon, they were near the entrance of Butch and Cassidy’s warehouse.
“How are we going to get in?” Jenny whispered. “We can’t just barge in?”
Ash closed his eyes and thought back.
“Well, once, Charlotte and I dressed up as Team Rocket agents to get in.”
“Would that work?”
Ash nudged Lance. “Crystal?”
Lance turned and stared at him, still emotionless. Ash sighed. * This is not good… maybe I’ll have to shock her out of this. *
Pika-chan gave him a thumbs-up. < Try using Chi transference, Ash. >
< What’s that? >
< You force your chi into her body. >
< Okay… and how do I do that? >
Luna and Pika-chan looked at each other. < Do you want to explain? >
< No! >
< She’s your Chosen! >
< You’re his guardian! >
Ash, looking at the telepathic catfight that was going on, pulled out his magic encyclopedia and flipped to the section on chi transference.
“Four methods… WHAT?!”
Ash took a few deep breaths. * Okay, I can raise/lower a person’s chi by giving it to them through the mouth, through a magic item, something edible, or through making out?! I hope she didn’t use that method… *
But considering that Ash didn’t have any edible magic plants with him and he did not want to try option 4, he opted for the mouth-to-mouth method. Plus, he didn’t want to break the Wand of the Water Guardian.
Ash closed his eyes. * Here goes… *
He brought his lips to Crystal’s and condensed his chi into a tiny ball of glowing energy. Then, he watched it seep into her body.
Lance stirred and the milkiness slowly left her eyes.
When she looked, she saw Ash sprawled on top of her with his eyes closed.
“Um… Ash?”
Ash opened his eyes and realized that they were in a very compromising position. “Um…” He blushed bright pink.
“Don’t worry! It was just chi transference!” Pika-chan said.
Lance got
up and helped Ash up. “Good.” She turned to Ash. “Now what are we going to do?”
“How about dressing up as TR
agents?”
“Let’s check your stash of costumes.” They began digging through the box Teresa had. Soon, they pulled out a dark blue Team Rocket uniform with a gold ‘R’ for Ash. Ash did not want to know how it had gotten there.
“What about you?” Ash asked.
Lance smiled, pulled out a scrap of paper, wrote two words on it, and blew on it. A flash of blue light surrounded the paper, forming into a female version of Ash’s uniform.
“Wow.” Ash said. They quickly changed behind a dumpster and headed to the doorway, with an armful of poke balls each.
Butch and Cassidy looked up.
“We know you’re in there!” Ash said. “We’d like to join your operation!”
Butch and Cassidy shrugged and opened the door.
Jenny and Gastly jumped out.
“The police?!”
“Gastly, go!”
“Don’t think it’ll be easy!” Cassidy said. “Drowzee, use Hypnosis!”
The Gastly staggered and began to fall. The pokemon stood up and advanced towards the group.
Dragonair reared up and began to spit out a hyper beam attack.
Lance smiled and vaulted so she was directly in its path.
“What are you doing?!” Ash demanded.
“Watch and see.” Lance said, smiling. As the hyper beam streaked towards her, her eyes turned silver. The hyper beam abruptly stopped curved around, instead crashing into the Drowzee.
The wires on the contraption snapped and crackled.
“It still won’t be easy to beat us though!” Butch said. “No matter what you do!”
“Drowzee, use Mega Punch!”
Ash pulled out his key, after making sure Jenny was busy with the pokemon. “Key that hides the power of the stars, reveal your true form before me! Your master under the seal of contract Ashura commands you, Release!”
Ash grabbed his staff. “Okay, Wobbuffet, you’re up! Use Counter!”
The Wobbuffet bounced and nodded, sending Drowzee’s physical attack back at it double.
Drowzee crashed into the ground.
“My turn.” Lance said, smiling. “Darkstar, use Thunderwave!” Her dragonair, now back to normal, smiled and paralyzed both of the thieves, letting Jenny take them to jail easily.
Then, the group continued on to the next island.
