(On a beautiful and sunny day.)
(Mew and her friends stopped at an open field, having a relaxing picnic lunch.)
(Misty picks a piece of rice ball.)
Misty: "Okay, Togepi. Open wide."
(Togepi does so and Misty feeds the piece to Togepi.)
(Togepi takes a bite and chews it.)
Misty: "Now, make sure to chew every bite,"
(Misty says, and Togepi is thrilled because of the taste.)
(Mew takes bite of the rice ball.)
Mew: "These rice balls are pretty good."
Brock: "Of course they are,"
(Brock says.)
(And prepare another one and use martial arts.)
Brock: "When you got lemons, you make lemonade. And when you got rice, you make rice balls! Eat up, everybody! There's plenty more where that came from!"
(As Mew and the others are having their lunch.)
(they are unaware that they are being closely watched by a complete stranger.)
(Whatever the being is or what is plotting.)
(seems to be using something to get a closer look at Mew.)
(Then lower the camera to see Pikachu.)
(The stranger quietly says.)
???: "Okay. I have the Pikachu in my sights. Now, don't move."
(Suddenly, Mew spots a strange device hiding in the bushes that catches her attention.)
(Mew whispers to her friends.)
Mew: "Hey guys, I think someone is spying on us?
Misty: "Where?"
(Misty asks.)
(Mew gently points to the bushes.)
Mew: "Over there."
(The group turns to notice something behind the bushes.)
(Tomo whispers.)
Tomo: "Is it Team Rocket?"
Mew: "Possibly,"
(Mew says, and brings out her Pokeball.)
(Then then opens her Pokeball and Squirtle comes out of it.)
Squirtle: "Squirtle," (Hi everyone.)
(Squirtle says.)
Mew: "Hi Squirtle. Listen, we need you to aim your Water Gun at that bush."
(Mew says, pointing to the direction.)
Squirtle: "Squirtle," (Got it.)
(Squirtle says.)
(Squirtle then sprays the Water Gun and suddenly hears someone screaming.)
(Along with shouting.)
???: "Quit it! Stop spraying me!"
(Mew says.)
Mew: "Okay Squirtle, that's enough."
(Squirtle stops spraying Water Gun.)
(Turns out the mysterious intruder is actually a boy who has black colored eyes, brown hair and brown eyebrows.)
(He is wearing a red and light red striped shirt, blue shorts, brown shows, a green bag, and has a camera.)
(Misty walks over and asks.)
Misty: "Is everything okay?"
(The boy checks the camera and says.)
???: "It's okay! It's working just fine!"
Misty: "I wasn't asking about your camera, I was worried about you!"
(Misty says.)
???: "But, you see, this camera is my life,"
(The boy says.)
Mew: "We're sorry about spraying you like that. We thought you were someone else. My name is Mew and this is my Partners: Pikachu and Eevee,"
(Mew says.)
Pikachu: "Pika," (Hi.)
(Pikachu says.)
Eevee: "Eevee," (Hello.)
(Eevee says.)
Tomo: "I'm Tomo,"
(Tomo says.)
Misty: "I'm Misty and this is Togepi,"
(Misty says.)
Brock: "And I'm Brock,"
(Brock says.)
Todd: "It's nice to meet you, and no hard feelings. My name's Snap, Todd Snap, and I love taking pictures,"
(Todd says.)
Tomo: "Photos?"
(Tomo says confused.)
(Then Todd says.)
Todd: "You should consider it an honor that I want to take a picture of your Pikachu."
Pikachu: "Pika?" (Picture?)
(Pikachu replies.)
Misty: "Oh, really?"
(Misty says.)
Brock: "If you wanted to take a picture, why didn't you just ask us first?"
(Brock replies.)
(But Todd says.)
Todd: "I didn't want Pikachu to know I was taking pictures of it. I never liked them to look posed. You see, I am the number one Pokemon photo master!"
Misty and Brock: "Did he say.."
(Misty and Brock say, confused.)
Mew and Tomo: "Photo Master?"
(Mew and Tomo add, confused.)
(Soon, Mew and her friends join Todd at his small.)
(white house that has a red roof and a chimney, where they can finish their lunch and Todd offers them drinks.)
Todd: "You may not recognize my name, but I'm sure you've heard of the photographer who took the only known of the legendary Pokemon, Aerodactyl,"
(Todd say.)
(Everyone looks confused.)
(Misty turns to Brock.)
Misty: "Have any of you?"
Brock: "Not me,"
(Brock answers.)
(Todd falls back in disbelief, but quickly gets back up.)
Todd: "How is it possible that they've never heard of me?!"
(Then hurries off.)
(He soon returns with the magazine and opens it on the table.)
Todd: "Here. Look at this issue of Pokemon Times! That's my picture of an Aerodactyl!"
(He then opens the magazine to see Todd's photo and the silhouette of an Aerodactyl.)
(Seeing the photo, Mew realizes.)
Mew: "Hey! That's me!"
(pointing to the photo.)
Todd: "What are you talking about? This is Aerodactyl, the ancient Pokemon,"
(Todd says, confused.)
Mew: "I know about that, but see the one Aerodactyl is hanging on to. That's me. What's more, I caught that very Aerodactyl in your photo,"
(Mew says.)
(Misty looks at the photo and says.)
Misty: "You're right, it is."
Brock: "It's the same Aerodactyl,"
(Brock says.)
Tomo: "Yeah,"
(Tomo says.)
(Hearing the conversation, Todd asks, surprised.)
Todd: "Wait, you're saying that you caught an actual Aerodactyl? The same one I took a picture of?"
Mew: "Yeah. It happened when we were at Grandpa Canyon,"
(Mew says.)
Misty: "And each of us have found Pokemon fossils from there,"
(Misty says.)
Brock: "Not only that, Mew didn't just catch a living Aerodactyl, but a living Omanyte and Kabuto as well,"
(Brock says.)
Tomo: "And her Charizard evolved and beat Aerodactyl, and we got Togepi's egg from the canyon,"
(Tomo adds.)
Todd: "Wow! That's amazing. Do you have them right now?"
(Todd asks, excited.)
Mew: "Sure. I'll show you,"
(Mew says.)
(Then tosses her Pokeballs in the air.)
Mew: "Come on out!"
(With that, the three Prehistoric Pokemon come out of their Pokeballs.)
(Todd is amazed.)
Todd: "Wow! Your Aerodactyl is so big. And your Omanyte and Kabuto are amazing."
(Todd then begins to take pictures of them with his camera.)
(Omanyte turns to Todd and waves its small tentacles at him.)
Mew: "Omanyte is saying hi,"
(Mew says.)
Todd: "Well then, hi to you too,"
(Todd says.)
(Omanyte continues to wave with glee.)
(Aerodactyl walks to Mew and snuggles Mew's head with his muzzle.)
(Kabuto crawls to Pikachu and Eevee to say hello.)
(Mew says.)
Mew: "We're trying to keep a low profile on where they come from. To be honest, there are actually more of those Pokemon from the canyon, it will be terrible if anyone knows about it and will try to capture them. So you have to promise not to tell anyone where I got them from, sounds fair,"
(Mew says.)
Todd: "You have a deal. I'm also sorry I scared you guys. Let me make some breakfast for you. You like pancakes?"
(Todd says.)
Mew: "Thanks Todd, that's very nice of you,"
(Mew says.)
Brock: "I haven't had pancakes in a LONG time!"
(Brock says.)
Misty: "That sounds great, Todd!"
(Misty says.)
Todd: "Okay! And I'm sure you won't mind if I take Pikachu's picture,"
(Todd says, and turns to Pikachu.)
Pikachu: "Pika?" (Picture?)
(Pikachu says, confused.)
Todd: "Don't worry. I'll be sure to capture your best side,"
(Todd says.)
Pikachu: "Pi? (Huh?)
(Pikachu says, confused.)
(Soon enough, Mew and the others are having pancakes and are beginning to eat it.)
(Even Pikachu and Eevee, along with Aerodactyl, Omanyte, and Kabuto are enjoying the delicious pancakes.)
Mew: "These pancakes taste great,"
(Mew says.)
(Pikachu and Eevee nod their heads in agreement.)
Brock: "You have to give me the recipe!"
(Brock says.)
(While Mew and the others are eating the food.)
(Todd then changes the lens on his camera.)
(Then has the camera points to Pikachu, but the Pikachu notices him.)
Todd: "Okay, Pikachu. Keep eating. Just pretend I'm not in the room, alright? Relax, just act natural,"
(Todd says.)
(Pikachu smiles, feeling embarrassed.)
(Soon, the others notice what is going on and Todd tries to get a picture of him.)
Todd: "That's fabulous. Now, smile. Smile. This is gonna be great!"
(Todd says.)
(Todd presses the button allowing the camera to take their picture, but Pikachu shocks him by accident.)
Pikachu: "Pi! Pikachu!" (Oh! I'm sorry!)
(Pikachu panics.)
(Mew covers her mouth as she lets out a chuckle.)
Mew: "The camera's shutter must've scared them. We don't get our picture taken too much."
Pikachu: "Pika," (Yeah.)
(Pikachu sadly says.)
Todd: "There's nothing to be afraid of, Pikachu,"
(Todd says.)
(Then has his camera ready.)
Todd: "let's try again. Okay, smile."
(Pikachu shyly smiles and feels embarrassed.)
(Todd then drops his knees.)
Todd: "I'm sorry, I can't work like this."
Brock: "What do you mean, Todd?"
(Brock asks.)
Todd: "Pokemon should be photographed naturally, not posing. It's the only way I want my pictures of Pokemon!"
(Todd says.)
(Confused, Misty asks.)
Misty: "Why is it such a big deal that the Pokemon pose or don't pose?"
(Todd then points to the photos.)
Todd: "Take a look at those photographs over there!"
(Mew and her friends look at all the wild Pokemon on the wall.)
(There are two Eevees, a Mankey, Pidgey, Dugtrio, and they all look natural.)
(Todd continues.)
Todd: "They're all Pokemon. Living in their own natural habitats. Those aren't poses, look how peaceful they are. Don't those shots show Pokemon the way they ought to be?
(Seeing them, Brock says.)
Brock: "Wow! I've never seen Pokemon pictures like THAT before!"
Misty: "They all look so cute and carefree!"
(Misty says.)
Tomo: "Yeah, they're happy!"
(Tomo says.)
Mew: "Wow! Your pictures are wonderful,"
(Mew happily says.)
Todd: "With my pictures, I can show the whole world how happy and beautiful Pokemon are in the wild,"
(Todd says.)
Mew: "Yeah!"
(Mew says.)
Misty: "That's great!"
(Misty replies.)
Brock: "You have a real talent for showing Pokemon the way they should be seen,"
(Brock adds.)
Todd: "That's why I never want to shoot a Pokemon that's posed and looks sad and scared,"
(Todd says.)
Pikachu: "Pika," (Golly.)
(Pikachu says, amazed.)
(Togepi and Eevee think the same.)
Mew: "Hmm, well, my Pikachu has a little problem about being photographed. Maybe you can take pictures of my other Pokemon,"
(Mew suggests.)
Todd: "That's very nice, but, no thanks! I only want to take pictures of Pikachu."
(Todd says.)
Misty: "What's so important about taking Pikachu's picture?"
(Misty asks, confused.)
Todd: "Well, you see.. I can't tell you why."
(Todd replies.)
Tomo: "How come?"
(Tomo asks.)
Todd: "That's all I can say. I have to take Pikachu and that's all there is to it!"
(Todd says.)
Mew: "This is going to be tough. The chances of getting Pikachu's picture without freaking out, it's well, close to zero,"
(Mew says.)
(But Todd laughs and is up for the challenge.)
Todd: "You just watch! I'll capture you, Pikachu, like no other photographer could capture you!"
(Nervous and frightened, Pikachu says.)
Pikachu: "Pi. Pika." (Uh, okay.)
