Chapter 12: Once In A Blue Moon

(Mew and her friends continue their way to Violet City so Mew can have her gym battle.)

(but today, they've stopped in a pretty little town called Cherrygrove City.)

(It's a perfect day.)

(Clear skies, warm breeze, and a quiet scenery.)

(It's a perfect place to have some lunch.)

(Brock is cooking lunch while Mew polishes her Pokeballs.)

(Jen, Tomo, Meloetta, Skwovet, Amaura, Snubbull, Togepi, and Pichu are playing together.)

(Mew finishes one.)

Mew: "As good as new."

(Pikachu then hands Mew the GS ball.)

Mew: "Thank you, Pikachu,"

(Mew says, and takes the GS ball.)

(Then Mew polishes it as she says.)

Mew: "Gotta take extra good care of this GS ball."

Misty: "I have to admit it, Mew. You've been acting like a much more responsible trainer than usual,"

(Misty says.)

Mew: "Probably because I've been doing it for some time, and taking note of what I learned. And I learned that Pokéball maintenance is quite important."

Misty: "Oh, I quite agree,"

(Misty agrees.)

(Then Brock calls out.)

Brock: "Hey! Lunch time!"

Mew: "Okay,"

(Mew says.)

(She then quickly put some of the Pokeballs she had out into her bag.)

(Unknown to her, the GS ball falls out and lands on the grass next to the river.)

(Mew walks to Brock without noticing.)

(Pikachu, and the others rush over as well.)

(Just then, Eevee stops to see the GS ball.)

(She walks over to pick it up, but notices a strange Pokemon appear from the water.)

(Eevee asks.)

Eevee: "Eevee?! (Who's there?!)

(Mew hears Eevee's voice and asks.)

Mew: "What? Something the matter, Eevee?"

(Then Mew spots the mysterious Pokemon.)

Mew: "Look!"

(The others turn to see the mysterious Pokemon sticking its head out of the water.)

(The Pokemon is light blue, tiny black eyes and nose, and a wide mouth.)

Jen: "What is that?"

(Jen asks.)

(Mew takes out her Pokedex and Dexter says.)

Dexter: "Quagsire, the Water Fish Pokémon. A Water and Ground Type. The Quagsire makes its home in clean, fresh water lakes. The Quagsire is covered by a slippery layer of skin, making this Pokémon especially difficult to handle."

Tomo: "Wow. Sounds really slick,"

(Tomo says

Misty: "Quagsire's gotta be one of the cutest Pokemon ever!"

(Misty happily says.)

(Then the Pokemon says.)

Quagsire: "Quagsire."

Misty: "Hey! I'm gonna catch it!"

(Misty eagerly says, and brings out her Pokeball.)

(Suddenly, Psyduck and Wooper come out of his Pokeball on its own, again.)

(Then Psyduck walks over and seems to have a mental connection with Quagsire, until Misty walks in and picks up her Pokemon.)

Misty: "You can't just stand here all day,"

(Misty says.)

(Suddenly, the GS ball rolls towards the river, allowing the Quagsire to snatch it.)

Mew: "The GS ball!"

(Mew cries out.)

(Then Quagsire swims away.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Wait, you can't take that! Stop!"

(Mew then calls out her Pokeball.)

Mew: "Squirtle, bring back that GS Ball before Quagsire gets away!"

(Squirtle comes out of the Pokeball and leaps onto Quagsire, preventing it from escaping.)

Mew: "Nice work, Squirtle!"

(Mew says.)

(Suddenly, Squirtle starts to slip on Quagsire's slippery skin.)

Mew: "Hey, look out!"

(Mew calls out.)

(Then Squirtle lands shell-first into the water while Quagsire escapes.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Squirtle! Squirtle, are you okay?!"

(Squirtle soon surfaces and speeds up in pursuit as Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Squirtle!"

(Just then, Wooper jumps into the water and swims with them.)

Misty: "Wooper, wait for us!"

(Misty calls out.)

(Squirtle speeds and catches up with Quagsire.)

(Squirtle tries to jump on it, but Quagsire uses its tail to smack it away.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Hurry, Squirtle! Hit it with your Water Gun!"

(Squirtle then uses Water Gun and forces the GS ball to slip out of Quagsire's mouth.)

(and Pikachu catches it on its way down, and Wooper jumps out of the water.)

Mew: "Nice catch, Pikachu!"

(Mew says.)

(Soon, both Quagsire and Squirtle fire a Water Gun at the other, resulting in a standstill.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Okay Squirtle, you can come back now.

(But Misty comes out with a Pokeball and says.)

Misty: "You just keep that Quagsire busy, Squirtle. And I'll capture it in my Pokéball."

Mew: "Oh Misty,"

(Mew replies, rolling her eyes.)

(Of course Misty will be very eager to catch a Water Pokemon.)

(Suddenly, they hear a whistle and soon see Officer Jenny arriving on the scene.)

(Of course, Brock says in lovestruck.)

Brock: "Officer Jenny!"

(Then he rushes over and takes her hand.)

Brock: "Your whistle is like the song of a beautiful love bird, and I'm hoping it's meant for..."

(But Officer Jenny brings out handcuffs, making Brock stop.)

Brock: "huh!?"

(Then Officer Jenny sternly says.)

Officer Jenny: "Can it, buster. You're all under arrest for violating Quagsire Preservation Restrictions."

Everyone: "Huh?!"

(Everyone reacted in shock.)

(Even the Pokemon are confused and wonder why they're being arrested.)

_______________________________________

(Later at the station, Officer Jenny is speaking with Professor Oak about Mew and her friends' situation.)

(Professor Oak explains.)

Professor Oak: "That's right! The Quagsire! Oh, this is embarrassing! I'm terribly sorry, but I'm afraid to say it completely slipped my mind. Of course, I should've mentioned it to them. Officer, all these trainers are new to the area and most of them except for the one I mentioned don't know the Quagsire Restrictions, I assure you."

Officer Jenny: "I understand,"

(Officer Jenny says.)

Officer Jenny: "If that's the case, I'll drop the charges, Professor Oak."

(Then turns to the group.)

Officer Jenny: "We always have to be on guard. Quagsire are very special Pokémon to the people here in Cherrygrove City."

(Then Professor Oak explains.)

Professor Oak: "You see, the Quagsire in Cherrygrove City only live in the cleanest waters, so the townspeople can judge how pure the local water sources are based on where they find them."

Officer Jenny: "That's why we have these strict Quagsire preservation laws here. No Quagsire capturing or battling allowed. Is that clear?"

(Officer Jenny adds.)

The group: "Yes,"

(The group reply with a nod.)

Professor Oak: "You've been warned. Make sure you don't cause anymore trouble for Officer Jenny,"

(Professor Oak says.)

Mew: "Sorry about that, we didn't mean to cause any trouble, professor. The Quagsire was trying to take the GS ball and I don't want to lose it,"

(Mew explains.)

Tomo: "Don't worry, we'll make sure that doesn't happen again,"

(Tomo says.)

Jen: "And we'll keep the GS ball safe too,"

(Jen adds.)

(Then Brock comes in.)

Brock: "Don't worry, Professor! There won't be any trouble! Not with Brock around! Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor Gloom, nor Vileplume will stray this Pokémon Breeder. We won't cause trouble, I consider it my duty to keep anyone from causing YOU trouble!"

(and takes Officer Jenny's hand.)

Officer Jenny: "Oh... kay,"

(Officer Jenny says, confused.)

(Misty then grabs Brock from behind and drags him away.)

Misty: "And it's mine and Mew's duty to keep you out of trouble."

(Tomo, Jen, and the Pokemon begin giggling.)

(Wooper is practically laughing and falls over.)

(Then Professor Oak clears his throat.)

Professor Oak: "Oh, and by the way, Mew, you haven't forgotten my little errand, have you?"

Mew: "Don't worry, Professor. The GS Ball is in good hands,"

(Mew says, and holds out the GS ball.)

Professor Oak: "Good. Take care,"

(Professor Oak says.)

(Then says to the Pokemon.)

Professor Oak: "Pikachu, Eevee, watch out for her."

(Pikachu and Eevee nod in agreement.)

(Then the call ends.)

(A little, confused, Mew wonders.)

Mew: "I still don't understand. Why would that Quagsire want to try to take the GS Ball?

Officer Jenny: "Because it's round,"

(Officer Jenny answers.)

Mew: "Because it's round?"

(Mew asks.)

Officer Jenny: "Right,"

(Officer Jenny says, then explains.)

Officer Jenny: "I know it sounds strange, but it's true. Around this time every year, the Quagsire starts to appear all around Cherrygrove City. No one knows why, but they swim downstream from their homes at Blue Moon Falls, looking for anything that's round. Then they take whatever they found, and swim back upstream. The next morning, all the round things they took come floating down the river and back to their owners."

Tomo: "That's weird,"

(Tomo says.)

(Jen giggles.)

Jen: "That sounds funny."

(Then Officer Jenny says.)

Officer Jenny: "Actually, people here are happy when their things get taken, because when they drift back, they bring pure water and good luck."

Misty: "Wow. They're like floating good luck charms,"

(Misty says.)

(Then Officer Jenny adds.)

Officer Jenny: "Especially if the last thing to float back is yours, because that one's supposed to be the luckiest of all."

(Then she spots something at the window.)

Officer Jenny: "Oh, look!"

(Everyone looks and sees Quagsire out the window.)

Misty: "Quagsire!"

(Misty says, surprised.)

Tomo: "I think it's the same one,"

(Tomo suspects.)

(Brock asks.)

Brock: "Does anyone else get the feeling it's still after the GS Ball?"

Jen: "I think it is,"

(Jen says.)

(Even the Pokemon agree.)

(Mew walks to the window and says.)

Mew: "Sorry Quagsire, but I can't let you have the GS ball, it's too important to lend it to you or any for that matter."

(Just then, Wooper walks to the window and begins to talk to Quagsire. Quagsire talks back to it.)

Misty: "That's sweet. Wooper is talking to Quagsire,"

(Misty says.)

Brock: "It's no surprise there. After all, Wooper will evolve into Quagsire itself someday,"

(Brock says.)

(Then Quagsire leaves the scene.)

(Later, Mew and her friends are now crossing the bridge across the river.)

Tomo: "I'm starving,"

(Tomo says.)

Brock: "Me, too. We never got to eat our lunch, did we?"

(Brock says.)

Jen: "Thanks to Quagsire,"

(Jen says.)

(Then Misty notices.)

Misty: "Hey! Speaking of which, there's that Quagsire."

Brock: "Nah. That's a different one,"

(Brock says.)

(They look to see a Quagsire is taking the round object off the bridge pillar.)

(It then dives in the water, and swims off with the object.)

Misty: "Guess they're here taking round things, just like Officer Jenny said,"

(Misty says.)

(Then Mew says.)

Mew: "It sure is weird that the Quagsire only take things that are round, isn't it?"

Brock: "Yeah,"

(Brock says.)

(Then each Pokemon says, "Real weird," in their language.)

(Soon, the same Quagsire from before shows up, startling the group.)

(Mew yelps.)

Mew: "Not you again!"

(Quagsire reaches its flipper out, asking for the ball.)

(However, Mew says.)

Mew: "I already told you, you can't have the GS Ball."

(Suddenly, the Quagsire jumps into Mew, covering her face.)

(Mew struggles and muddles.)

Mew: "Hey! Get off of me, will ya?! Somebody do something!"

(Mew quickly grabs her Pokeball, and Chikoirta comes out while everyone tries to pull Quagsire, but are unable to.)

Misty: "We can't get a grip on it! It's too slippery!"

(Misty cries out.)

(Seeing her trainer in trouble, Chikorita charges in, spinning her head lead around.)

(and knocks Quagsire off of Mew while also knocking everyone down.)

Misty: "That felt like a windmill,"

(Misty says.)

Tomo: "More like a whirlwind,"

(Tomo says.)

(Then Chikorita nuzzles Mew with glee.)

Misty: "Hey, what's gotten into Chikorita?"

(Misty asks.)

Brock: "Well, I think Chikorita is being overprotective because she has a sort of admiration towards Mew,"

(Brock suspects.)

(Mew turns to Chikorita.)

Mew: "Really? That's very sweet."

(Soon, Quagsire appears behind Mew again.)

(Chikorita doesn't like it and spins her head leaf at Quagsire.)

(Mew cries out.)

Mew: "Hey! Quit it! Cut it out, Chikorita!"

(Suddenly, the GS ball falls out of Mew's bag, which both Mew and Quagsire notice.)

(Quagsire takes it's chance, and quickly dives after the GS ball, and takes it underwater with it.)

Mew: "Oh no!"

(Mew cries out and rushes to the bridge to see Quagsire swimming away with it.)

Mew: "Oh no! We gotta catch it!"

(Mew says.)

(Then Chikorita jumps on the bridge and tries to jump in the water.)

(But Mew catches her and says.)

Mew: "Sorry Chikorita, but I don't think you can swim to catch up with the Quagsire. It's swimming too fast. We'll have to go on foot."

________________________________________

(Meanwhile, Team Rocket is out in the woods, somewhat lost.)

(Meowth is too busy playing with a kind of round ornament.)

(James is also looking at the map to see which way they need to go.)

Jessie: "Great. We've lost those twerpy kids again,"

(Jessie says, frustrated.)

(Then turns to Meowth.)

Jessie: "What are you so happy about? What's that thing you've got there?

Meowth: "It's just an old lawn ornament. There's a bunch of neat stuff over in that field and it's all round,"

(Meowth says, and likes it.)

Jessie: "Small minds are easily amused,"

(Jessie comments.)

James: "Let's see!"

(James says.)

(Meowth, somewhat surprised at James' response, shows him the ornament.)

(Then James uses it as a crystal ball.)

James: "Now I will gaze deeply into this ball, which will reveal the twerp patrol's whereabouts."

Meowth: "Their whereabouts? Who cares what they're wearing?"

(Meowth questions.)

(But James says.)

James: "Silence, please! Wait! It's getting clearer! Clearer."

(Soon, a Quagsire appears, spooking Team Rocket.)

(James panics.)

James: "I was only kidding!"

(Then Quagsire takes the ornament and runs off with it.)

(Meowth cries out.)

Meowth: "Hey! I saw that first!

Jessie: "Outrageous! How dare that slippery, smiling, little whatever it is steal your ball?!"

(Jessie angrily says and gets out her Pokeballs.)

Jessie: "Lickitung, Arbok, go get him!"

(However, two more Quagsire shows up and steals Jessie's Pokeballs.)

(James then brings out his Pokeball.)

James: "Okay, Weezing, Victreebel, don't let it get away!"

(But Two more Quagsire appear and steal them too.)

(James cries out.)

James: "My Victreebel and Weezing!"

Jessie: "My Arbok and Lickitung!"

(Jessie panics.)

(Meowth cries out.)

Meowth: "Come back here!"

(Then Team Rocket begin their pursuit of the Quagsire as they swim down the river.)

(Later in the evening, Mew and her friends are still in pursuit of the Quagsire who stole the GS ball.)

(They've been chasing the Quagsire for a while, and soon, they come to a wooden bridge, but no Quagsire or GS ball around.)

(Wooper swims up the river to help out.)

(It jumps out of the water to meet Misty, and shakes his head in reply.)

Misty: "It's okay, Wooper. You did your best,"

(Misty says, and let Wooper sit on her shoulder.)

Mew: "There's no sign of that Quagsire anywhere,"

(Mew says.)

Brock: "Yeah, it's gotta be swimming in this river, but who knows where it could be?"

(Brock replies.)

Misty: "Maybe we'd have a better chance of finding it if we just waited for it to swim downstream,"

(Misty says.)

Brock: "You're right. If we're lucky, the GS Ball will just float right back down the river,"

(Brock says.)

Tomo: "Yeah, but what happens if we're not lucky?"

(Tomo asks.)

Brock: "Well,"

(Brock says, and thinks of the possibility.)

Brock: "If we're not lucky and it doesn't float down the river, we'll be up the creek."

(Everyone shrugs.)

(And Misty replies.)

Misty: "Bad joke, Brock."

(Suddenly, Pikachu spots something.)

Pikachu: "Pika Pika!" (Look down there, guys!)

Mew: "What's up, Pikachu?"

(Mew asks.)

(Mew soon spots what Pikachu has spot.)

Mew: "Quagsire!"

(Mew says.)

Brock: "I betcha they'll lead us to the one that has the GS Ball!"

(Brock says.)

Mew: "Then let's hurry,"

(Mew says.)

Jen: "We don't wanna lose them,"

(Jen adds.)

(Everyone begins to head upstream to follow the Quagsire, while Team Rocket trails behind.)

Meowth: "Is my imagination running wild? Or did I just hear the twerps?"

(Meowth asks.)

James: "Even if you did, we can't stop them until we get our Pokémon back!"

(James says.)

(Then Jessie says.)

Jessie: "But when we do, we'll take care of the twerps, and that slimy Pokémon, too!"

(Later and it's night, Mew and the others are able to find multiple Quagsire and all the round objects they have too.)

(They look through the tall grass to see them all in the water, each holding their object.)

Misty: "Wow! Look at them all!"

(Misty says, amazed.)

(Then Jen asks.)

Jen: "You think this is where all the Quagsire live?"

Brock: "Remember what Officer Jenny said? She told us that the Quagsire made their home at some place called Blue Moon Falls. But I don't see any waterfalls,"

(Brock says.)

Mew: "You're right. I don't see any either,"

(Mew says.)

(Soon, Tomo spots the Quagsire with the GS ball.)

Tomo: "There's that Quagsire!"

Mew: "It's best we remain here for the time being. There's not much we can do at this point,"

(Mew says.)

Misty: "You're right. Officer Jenny made us promise that if we saw any Quagsire we would leave them alone,"

(Misty says.)

Brock: "We'll keep our eyes on it so it can't get away,"

(Brock says.)

(Tomo and Jen agree.)

(The group of friends watch the Quagsire, Team Rocket does the same.)

Jessie: "Look. Over there,"

(Jessie says.)

James: "It's the twerp,"

(James says.)

Meowth: "If we move fast, maybe we can grab deir Pikachu and Eevee,"

(Meowth says.)

(Then Jessie says.)

Jessie: "Why just settle for one Pokémon? If we can capture all of those Quagsire, we could make a fortune."

Meowth: "Okay, let's go get em,"

(Meowth says.)

(Then James says.)

James: "Fine. You and Jessie go and I'll wait back here."

(Jessie quietly scolds James.)

Jessie: "Oh, no you won't. We're all in this together. Don't be such a coward."

James: "Well, I'll, try,"

(James says.)

(With that, Team Rocket whispers.)

Team Rocket: "Team Rocket…"

James and Meowth: "Charge,"

(James and Meowth says.)

(Back at the lake, all the Quagsire start looking up in the night sky.)

Misty: "They're all standing so still,"

(Misty says.)

Brock: "It seems like they're waiting for something to happen in the sky,"

(Brock says.)

Mew: "I wonder what it is,"

(Mew replies.)

(Suddenly, Mew spots a claw and it's moving towards the Quagsire with the GS Ball.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Quagsire, look out!"

(But Quagsire is soon grabbed.)

Mew: "Oh no!"

(Mew cries out.)

(Then Brock says.)

Brock: "Oh, yes! And look who it is!"

(Soon, it's revealed that Team Rocket has captured Quagsire with its claw, and they begin the motto.)

Jessie: Prepare for trouble, because trouble's what we love!

James: Make that trouble double, when we cause it from above!

Jessie: To protect the world from devastation!

(But as Jessie says her part of the motto, the Quagsire slips through the claw and escapes as the other claw tries to grab another Quagsire.)

James: To unite all peoples within our…

(But the other Quagsire escapes too.)

(James is shocked.)

James: "It got away!"

(Annoyed, Jessie and James try to grab the Quagsire.)

(as they continue their motto, and the Quagsire continues to slip through the claws.)

Jessie: To denounce the evils of truth and love!

James: To extend our reach to the stars above!

Jessie: Jessie!

James: James!

Jessie: Team Rocket, blast off at the speed of Light!

James: Surrender now or prepare to fight!

Meowth: Meowth. Yeah, right.

(Frustrated, Jessie says.)

Jessie: "We'll never catch those things this way!"

(Then says to Meowth.)

Jessie: "Meowth, it's time to go to plan B!"

Meowth: "From now on, I think we oughta start with plan B. Here goes,"

(Meowth says, and presses the button.)

(Then a net drops from the basket of the balloon, and on to the Quagsire.)

Mew: "The Quagsire!"

(Mew calls out.)

(Jessie and James say.)

Jessie and James: "Nice catch, Meowth!"

Jessie: "Well, with this haul, our money troubles will be a thing of the past. We can pay off our debts and have plenty left over,"

(Jessie says.)

Meowth: "Leftovers? Boy, I sure could go for a nice meatloaf sandwich,"

(Meowth says.)

James: "Say, I wonder where those Pokémon hid our Pokéballs,"

(James says, looking.)

(Team Rocket searches around and quickly spots them.)

Team Rocket: "There they are!"

(However, their Pokeballs aren't with the others, and sitting there with discarded junk.)

(Jessie angrily says.)

Jessie: "The nerve of them! Leaving our Pokéballs in a pile of garbage!"

James: "Slime balls! Don't you know you're not supposed to litter?!"

(James angrily says.)

(Then Meowth says.)

Meowth: "I wonder if dere's any potato chips left in dat bag down dere."

Jessie: "The way they treated our Pokéballs is positively unthinkable!"

(Jessie angrily says.)

James: "Well, they thought of it, and now we should show them what we think!"

(James says.)

(Soon, Meowth spots his ornament.)

Meowth: "Let em go, guys! I want my favorite toy!"

(Jessie and James soon retrieve their Pokeballs, and then they attack Meowth for his comment.)

(Soon, Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Hey, Team Rocket! Let go of those Quagsire!"

Meowth: "You gotta be kidding, kiddo!"

(Meowth says.)

(Then James says.)

James: "Not only are we keeping the Pokémon we have..."

Jessie: "We're about to pick up two more,"

(Jessie says.)

(Then the claw heads down and quickly grabs Pikachu and Eevee.)

(Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Pikachu! Eevee!"

Meowth: "We did it!"

(Meowth cheers.)

James: "Pikachu and Eevee!"

(James chers.)

(Then Jessie cheers.)

Jessie: "Now, we've got you!"

Mew: "Hey, come back!"

(Mew calls out.)

(Suddenly, out of nowhere, rocks are hitting Team Rocket in the heads.)

(Mew and the others turn to see the Quagsire who haven't been caught are firing the rocks with Water Gun.)

James: "They're putting on a rock show!"

(James cries out.)

Jessie: "Well, what are we going to do, now?!"

(Jessie asks.)

Meowth: "We shoulda had a plan C!"

(Meowth says.)

(Due to the rocks, Team Rocket releases Pikachu and Eevee by accident.)

Jessie: "There goes..."

(Jessie panics.)

(Then Meowth panics.)

Meowth: "Pikachu!"

(And James panics.)

James: "And Eevee!"

(Then Mew quickly catches them in the nick of time.)

Mew: "We have to save them, fast!"

(Mew says.)

_______________________________________

(Just then, Wooper gets in front and is ready to battle.)

Misty: "Mew, can Wooper and I handle this,"

(Misty says.)

Mew: "Take your best shot, Misty,"

(Mew says.)

Misty: "Alright, Wooper, use Stone Edge!"

(Misty calls out.)

(Wooper soon performs Stone Edge and sends rocks flying, cutting the rope, allowing the Quagsire to escape.)

(Then Misty calls out.)

Misty: "Now, use Mud Shot!"

(Then, Wooper uses Mud Shot at Team Rocket, covering their faces in mud.)

Misty: "And now, use Water Gun!"

(Misty says.)

(And with that, Wooper fires the Water Gun that hits the bottom of Team Rocket's basket, causing it to jump a little.)

(Then, some Quagsire launches a giant boulder at Team Rocket's balloon, punching a hole in it and sending the group flying.)

(Team Rocket screams.)

Team Rocket: "Looks like Team Rocket's blasting off again!"

(The Quagsire happily cheers with glee and gathers with Wooper and Misty.)

(Misty giggles.)

Misty: "I think the Quagsire are thanking you Wooper."

(Wooper is happily saying.)

Wooper: "Wooper. Wooper."

(Suddenly, Wooper begins to glow, surprising everyone.)

Tomo: "What the..."

(Tomo says, surprised.)

Brock: "Misty, Wooper evolving!"

(Brock says, surprised.)

(Soon, Wooper changes its shape and gains arms, and a large tail.)

(Soon, Wooper has evolved into a Quagsire.)

(Misty happily says.)

Misty: "Wooper evolved into Quagsire."

Quagsire: "Quagsire!"

(Misty Quagsire happily says.)

(Soon, a glow is soon seen over yonder, and the Quagsire swim towards it.)

Misty: "I wonder where all the Quagsire are going,"

(Misty asks.)

Mew: "I don't know, but they're all going there together,"

(Mew answers.)

Brock: "They're all heading back upstream,"

(Brock says.)

Jen: "Come on!"

(Jen says.)

Tomo: "Let's go see,"

(Tomo says.)

(Everyone begins to follow the Quagsire and continue upstream until they reach their destination, Blue Moon falls.)

(Mew and the others peek through the bushes.)

Mew: "Look. There they are!"

(Mew says.)

Brock: "Yeah, but..."

(Brock replies.)

(But soon, everyone looks up to see the Blue Moon in the sky.)

Jen: "I think we're at..."

(Jen says.)

(And Misty says.)

Misty: "Blue Moon Falls!"

Mew: "It's beautiful,"

(Mew says.)

Tomo: "I wonder why they gather all the round objects, including the GS Balls here?"

(Tomo wonders.)

(Then Brock says.)

Brock: "Watch. Maybe we'll find out."

(Just then, one Quagsire launches a baseball at the falls with Water Gun, looking to send it to the top, but it ends up hitting the falls as it goes down.)

(The rest of the Quagsire follow suit.)

Tomo: "I'm watching, but I still don't get it,"

(Tomo says.)

Jen: "Me neither,"

(Jen says.)

(Brock then thinks.)

Brock: "Well, maybe it's a competition to see who can get theirs closest to the moon."

Mew: "Maybe so. And maybe the closest one is considered the luckiest,"

(Mew says.)

Misty: "Well, whatever it is, it's exciting,"

(Misty says.)

(Then Quagsire continues to compete with one another, causing all kinds of sparkles to appear in the sky.)

Misty: "Wow! It's beautiful!"

(Misty says.)

Tomo: "It's so magical!"

(Tomo says.)

Brock: "It looks like some kind of special, secret Quagsire ceremony!"

(Brock says.)

(Finally, the Quagsire that has the GS ball is preparing to try its luck.)

Mew: "Look, it's Quagsire's turn,"

(Mew says.)

Tomo: "I wonder how far it's going to send the GS ball,"

(Tomo replies.)

(The Quagsire launches the GS ball in the air, and it manages to get it higher than the waterfall and nearly the moon.)

Mew: "Hey, guys! The GS Ball went higher than the rest!"

(Mew says.)

(All the Quagsire begin to celebrate as the GS Ball comes back down and down the river.)

Mew: "There it goes,"

(Mew says.)

Jen: "And all the round objects are going down the river too,"

(Jen says.)

Tomo: "Let's follow and see where it goes,"

(Tomo says.)

(With that, Mew and the others begin to follow the GS ball and the other round objects down the river.)

(Soon, the sun rises, and everyone in Cherrygrove City awaits to see the round objects float upstream.)

(Soon, people begin to call out.)

people 1: "Look! There they are!"

people 2: "They're back!"

(Soon, everyone runs into the river to gather back their belongings as they float down stream.)

(Everyone cheers that they'll have another year of luck.)

(Then Officer Jenny calls out.)

Officer Jenny: "Please come back out this way when you've retrieved your belongings!"

(Just then, someone calls out.)

someone: "Look! Here comes the last one!"

(Everyone sees the GS BAll coming, but no one has a clue who it belongs to.)

Officer Jenny: "What is it?"

(Officer Jenny asks.)

(Soon, everyone hear's Mew calling out.)

Mew: "It's mine! It's mine!"

(They turn around to see Mew and the others in pursuit.)

(Tired, Mew calls out.)

Mew: "Please, don't let it float, away."

(Officer Jenny scoops the GS Ball out of the river as the group stops and collapses from exhaustion.)

Officer Jenny: "Well, looks like you're the lucky one, Mew"

(Officer Jenny says.)

Mew: "Yeah, the GS Ball came back,"

(Mew says, and takes the GS Ball.)

(But Officer Jenny says.)

Officer Jenny: "Not just that. You're going to have the best luck of any of us this year. Your Pokéball was the last thing to float back down the river. That means, of all the round objects this year, yours was the luckiest. That ball is going to be your good luck charm, Mew."

Mew: "The, GS Ball's lucky?"

(Mew asks, surprised.)

(Then everyone gives Mew an applaud for her accomplishment.)

Mew: "it's really me? I'm the luckiest one of all?"

(Mew says, surprised.)

(She smiles and says.)

Mew: "I'm actually happy that my GS Ball became my lucky charm. I guess it means that I'll end up with luck for the Johto League."

Misty::"Yeah. But you don't just need luck to win. You already have great skill and great Pokemon,"

(Misty says.)

Tomo: "But now you're going to have some luck,"

(Tomo says.)

Brock: "That's true. There's more to winning the Pokemon League than just luck,"

(Brock says.)

(Mew holds the GS Ball up in the sky and is glad that the GS Ball is back, and now has become her good luck charm.)

(Now that the GS Ball is safely returned, Mew and her friends continue to travel through the Johto Region for the Johto League.)
