==Synopsis==
==Plot==
{{spoilers}}
{{spoilers}}
In {{ci|Celadon}}'s Game Corner, {{Adv|Red}} is shown to have infiltrated [[Team Rocket]], having learned that they too are on the hunt for {{Adv|Green}}, the girl who stole his two [[Badge]]s. However, he gets more than he bargained for when he ends up in a secret underground laboratory. Where he and the other {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s are shown a half-formed {{p|Mewtwo}}, a new Pokémon formed from cells that the Grunts had obtained from {{p|Mew}}. And to complete the incomplete Mewtwo, they need more cells to be taken from Mew. This is why they are looking for Green, as it seems that she has stolen the disc which contains all their information on Mew.
At the [[Celadon Game Corner|Rocket Game Corner]], a {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}} informs [[Team Rocket Elite Trio|Ken]] that they are close to finding {{adv|Green}}. Meanwhile in [[Celadon City]], {{adv|Red}} is still frustrated over the loss of his [[Badge|Badges]], knowing that Green must have stolen them, and vows to get his revenge. He pulls out his [[Town Map|map]], knowing that she couldn't have made it very far in such a short time.


With this information, Red begins to look differently on Green, as he realizes that she too is working against Team Rocket, but his thoughts are interrupted as he and the other grunts are mobilized towards a sighting of Green. Making his way to her location, he finds her surrounded by grunts. She reacts by coolly tossing the disc into her [[Blasty|Wartortle]]'s mouth, and warning Team Rocket that if they attack, the disc will be damaged.
Suddenly, two Team Rocket Grunts walk past, and Red overhears them discussing their multiple unsuccessful attempts at capturing Green. Red is intrigued to learn that they're looking for her too, giving him an idea. He knocks one of them out and steals his clothes to infiltrate Team Rocket's hideout. Red then enters the Rocket Game Corner, where he and the other Team Rocket Grunts are quickly ordered to take a hidden staircase down to the [[Team Rocket Hideout|secret underground laboratory]]. Once in the laboratory they are shown a half-formed Pokémon in a vat, three sets of shackles and chains affixed to its arm and leg.  


Team Rocket attack with {{p|Machoke}} and {{p|Hitmonlee}}, but in their attempts to protect the disc whilst also taking down Wartortle, the two Pokémon simply end up injuring each other, much to Green's delight. As she gloats, Red is furious to notice that she is wearing his stolen Badges as earrings.
Red overhears from a scientist nearby that this Pokémon is {{p|Mewtwo}}, formed from {{adv|Mew}}'s cells that the Grunts had obtained. He explains that a single cell doesn't have enough genetic data to form a complete Pokémon, and that they either need to capture Mew itself, or capture Green to recover the data disk that she stole. Red gains some respect for Green, but wonders what the "Mew" they keep mentioning even is. Suddenly, all the Grunts are assembled, as Green has been spotted.


The highest-ranking member of Team Rocket present loses his patience and calls out his {{p|Tauros}}, a Pokémon that he warns Green was the leader of his herd, King of the {{safari|Kanto}}, and with the power to control other Pokémon by whipping his three tails. The Tauros commands all of Team Rocket's Pokémon at once, quickly neutralizing Wartortle and recovering the disc. With the tide of battle turning against her, and finding herself backed up against a cliff edge, Green switches Wartortle for her [[Ditty|Ditto]], much to the amusement of the Grunts present. As the Tauros charges her down, Red can't stand by and watch and throws her to the ground, protecting her as the Tauros passes by overhead and tumbles down the cliff with Ditto.
Out in a field, Green and her {{p|Wartortle}} [[Blasty]] are surrounded by over a dozen Grunts, who all send out their Pokémon in an attempt to recover the disk. The Grunts make a last attempt to ask her to hand it over, but she refuses, because she wants to capture Mew for herself. She tosses the disk to Blasty, who catches it in his mouth. Knowing the disk could be damaged in an attack, the Grunts still make an effort to retrieve it. Two Grunts command their {{p|Machamp}} and {{p|Hitmonlee}} to attack, but as Blasty dodges between them, the two Pokémon strike each other, both being knocked out in a single hit. As she gloats, Red is furious when he notices that she is wearing his stolen Badges as earrings.


Recognizing Red, Green seems pleased to see him and calls him her "hero", but Red is confused as to why she isn't more concerned about Ditto. Behind them, Tauros has made its way back up the cliff, but much to the Rocket Grunts' shock Tauros turns all the Pokémon present against them. In the confusion, Green grabs Red make a run for it, revealing Red's identity as an infiltrator in the process. Using her {{p|Jigglypuff}}, Green escapes with Red and the "Tauros" reveals itself to be Green's [[Ditty]], who had been utilizing its power to transform into other Pokémon, before it is returned by Green to its [[Poké Ball]].

Recognizing Red, Green seems happy to see him, but Red is more concerned about her Pokémon getting sent over the cliff. Behind them, Tauros has climbed its way back up the cliff, but much to the surprise of the Rocket Grunts, Tauros commands all the Pokémon to attack them. Green quickly pulls on Red's hand to lead him away, but one of the Grunts ask him why he isn't capturing her. Green pulls off Red's disguise and they both make an escape by grabbing onto Green's {{p|Jigglypuff}} as it floats away.
