Chapter 159: The Knowledge Of Pokemon Test Exam And Mew Got Highest Score In First Position

(Soon enough, Mew, along with Jessie and James are in the exam room to take the test.)

instructor: "The first test will measure your overall knowledge of Pokemon! Ready? Begin!"

(The instructor says.)

(Mew nods her head.)

(Then Lickitung appears on the screen.)

Computer: "Lickitung's tongue is twice the length of it's body. True or false?"

Mew: "Hmm, I remember seeing Lickitung when Jessie caught it. And even the Pokedex said that it's more than twice the length of its body. So it has to be false,"

(Mew says and presses the button.)

(Then the computer shows Vulpix and says.)

Computer: "A Kanto Region Ninetales evolves from A Kanto Region Vulpix only by use of a Fire Stone. True or False?"

Mew [in mind]: "That's true,"

(Mew thinks and presses the true button.)

(The computer shows Hitmonlee on the screen.)

Computer: "Hitmonlee is also known as 'The Punching Demon.'"

(Mew thinks.)

Mew [in mind]: "Hitmonlee is known as the Kicking Fiend while Hitmonchan is known as the Punching Demon. I've seen them before."

(Mew then presses false.)

(The computer says as it shows a picture of Magikarp.)

Computer: "The only attack Magikarp originally knows is Splash. True or False?"

(Meanwhile, Jessie and James continue to take the exams.)

(In fact, Jessie is only pressing true on all the questions.)

(Time has gone by and the second exam is about to begin.)

(The instructor says.)

instructor: "Now, we will measure your ability to recognize Pokemon! Please name the Pokemon by identifying its silhouette or any part of its body as it is displayed here!"

Mew [in mind]: "So I have to remember a Pokemon's appearance, silhouette or any of its body parts,"

(Mew thinks.)

instructor: "Here's the first question,"

(The instructor says.)

(Just then a black circle appears on the screen.)

Computer: "Identify this Pokemon."

Mew [in mind]: "Hmm, it could be a Voltord or an Electrode, but that seems too obvious. Hmm, maybe I need to focus on their point of view,"

(Mew thinks.)

(Then remembers.)

Mew [in mind]: "Wait, Misty's Jigglypuff is round from a top view."

(Then taps on the screen and has a picture of a Jigglypuff.)

(James answers.)

James: "Ah, how simple. It's a Pokeball, without a doubt."

(Jessie says.)

Jessie: "Obviously, it's an Electrode."

(Hearing James and Jessie, Mew thinks.)

Mew [in mind]: "An Electrode is a good guess, but a Pokeball…"

instructor: "And the answer is a.. Jigglypuff seen from above,"

(The instructor says, the answer is soon shown on the screen.)

(Mew blinks her eyes in surprise because she has the right answer.)

(James and Jessie nearly fall out of their seats in disbelief that they have the wrong answer.)

instructor: "Next question. What Pokemon displays this pattern?"

(The instructor says.)

(Then shows a swirl that starts from the right.)

(James answers.)

James: "It must be an Omanyte shell!"

Jessie: "It's an Arbok when it's all coiled up."

(Jessie says.)

Mew: "Hmm, the only Pokemon with those patterns is Poliwag, Poliwhirl, and Poliwrath. Back when Poliwhirl was Poliwag, it used to have that pattern, so it has to be it,"

(Mew says, selecting Poliwag.)

(The instructor says.)

instructor: "The correct answer: Poliwag."

(Jessie and James fall out of their seats in disbelief.)

(Mew simply smiles to have the right answer again.)

(The instructor says.)

instructor: "As any master would know, when Poliwag evolves into Poliwhirl, the swirl on its stomach reverses direction."

(The rest of the gang are watching through the glass window.)

Misty: "Hey, this is hard,"

(Misty says.)

Brock: "And it's getting harder by the minute!"

(Brock says.)

Pikachu: "Pika," (No joke.)

(Pikachu says.)

Misty: "Hope Mew will do fine,"

(Misty says.)

Eevee: "Eevee," (Me too.)

(The instructor says.)

instructor: "Question fifteen: What Pokemon does this tail belong to?"

(Then it shows a picture of a tail flame.)

Mew: "Hmm. Charmander, Charmeleon, and Charizard have a flame on their tail. And so does Ponyta and Rapidash… This one is a tricky one,"

(Mew says, and thinks.)

(Mew looks at the tail carefully and thinks.)

Mew [in mind]: "The tail flame on the screen seems longer and wavy. It doesn't look like a tail flame of Charmander and it's evolution forms, and Rapidash tail is very large. So I think it's a Ponyta's, I remember Lara had one like it, before it evolved. Even Tomo has a Ponyta."

(Then Mew selects her answer.)

(The instructor says.)

instructor: "The answer is. Ponyta."

Mew [in mind]: "Hmm, these questions are really hard. Yet, it's understandable that a trainer needs to pay close attention to a Pokemon's appearance,"

(Mew thinks.)

(But her thoughts are interrupted when Jessie snaps in rage.)

Jessie: "Can't you ask me a question that I know that answer to?!"

(That makes Mew and the others turn their heads in surprise.)

instructor: "Please take your seat!"

(the instructor says.)

(Jessie angrily says.)

Jessie: "This is a joke! These stupid questions won't make you a Pokemon master!"

(The Head instructor sternly says.)

Head instructor: "For your information, young lady, a Pokemon master must understand all aspects of their Pokemon's life in order to achieve oneness with their Pokemon!"

Jessie: "You're not making any sense at all! I'm through with this!"

(Jessie yells and angrily walks to the door.)

(The instructor angrily says.)

instructor: "Get out!"

(Jessie takes off her tag and throws it to the ground.)

Jessie: "I can't wait to go!"

(Then leaves as she slams the door.)

James: "But, Jessie, I.."

(James says, concerned.)

Nurse Joy: "Dear, what a shame,"

(Nurse Joy sadly says.)

(Mew thinks.)

Mew [in mind]: "And I guess it helps me observe human behavior. That's Jessie alright."

(Outside of the building, Meowth is sleeping next to the ball of strength after finishing playing.)

(That's when Jessie comes up to him.)

Jessie: "Hey!"

(Jessie angrily shouts.)

(She kicks him and says.)

Jessie: "Let's go!"

Meowth: "Where am I going?"

(Meowth asks.)

Jessie: "You're going with me, to help me get my revenge!"

(Jessie says in full rage.)

(Meanwhile in the testing building, Mew walks over and meets the others.)

Brock: "How was the test?"

(Brock asks.)

Mew: "It was very hard, but I think I did okay. I didn't realize that trainers have to pay extra close attention to Pokemon's appearance,"

(Mew says.)

Misty: "Well, the important thing is that you did okay,"

(Misty says.)

Tomo: "I think you did great,"

(Tomo says.)

Mew: "Thank you, Tomo."

(Mew says.)

(Soon, the scoreboard begins to lower down and show the score.)

Misty: "Here comes the scoreboard!"

(Misty says.)

(Everyone looks at the scoreboard to see for themselves.)

Misty: "The ones on the right got the lowest scores, and the ones on the left got the highest,"

(Misty says.)

(Brock then notices.)

Brock: "Look, Nurse Joy has the second highest score."

Todd: "And look who has the highest score,"

(Todd says.)

(Mew walks over and asks.)

Mew: "Who?"

(Todd answers.)

Todd: "You did!"

(Mew becomes confused.)

Mew: "I did?!"

(Todd then begins to take pictures of Mew's score that is on the top left.)

(Right next to Nurse Joy's picture.)

Misty: "Wow! You got the highest score!"

(Misty says.)

Brock: "But remember, you still have another part of the exam to take,"

(Brock says.)

Tomo: "Go Mew!"

(Tomo happily says.)

(Back at the corner, James is distressed that Jessie has been expelled from the test.)

James: "Jessie's been expelled. Now, I'll have to do my best for her,"

(James says, clutching his fist.)
