== Synopsis ==
==Plot==
With {{Adv|Red}} and {{Adv|Blue}} facing off [[Lt. Surge]] and [[Koga]], {{Adv|Green}} is free to enter the [[Silph Co.]] building unfettered to accomplish her own objectives. However, when she enters a room at the third floor, she finds herself apparently ''outside'' where a large [[Bell Tower|tower]] stands in the background. The scenario is revealed by [[Sabrina]] to be an illusion generated by her {{t|Psychic}} Pokémon, forcing Green to live her deepest fears. In retaliation Green releases her [[Blasty|Blastoise]] to do battle, but Sabrina's {{p|Kadabra}} outmaneuvers with {{m|Teleport}} before knocking it down with {{m|Psychic}}. Sneering at Green for immediately using her strongest Pokémon, Sabrina has Kadabra hold Blasty in a {{m|Disable}} before delivering a blow that shatters its shell.

With {{adv|Red}} and {{adv|Blue}} facing off against [[Lt. Surge]] and [[Koga]], respectively, {{adv|Green}} is free to enter the [[Silph Co.]] building unfettered to accomplish her own objectives. However, when she enters a room on the third floor, a loud gonging sound stops her in her tracks, leaving her nervously checking her surroundings for where it could've come from. Passing through the door leading to her destination, she suddenly finds herself outside.  


However, Green promptly sends out another [[Poké Ball]], surprising Sabrina when its contents are revealed to be the ''real'' Blasty, who strikes Kadabra down with a {{m|Mega Punch}}; the other Blasty revealing itself as Green's [[Ditty]]. Using her {{p|Horsea}} to release {{m|SmokeScreen}} and wearing her modified [[Silph Scope]], Green starts to taunt Sabrina in the dark as she prepares her counterattack...
A voice speaks from behind her, saying that the power of {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon will force her to experience her most terrible fears. As [[Sabrina]] finishes teleporting in, Green decides to engage her in battle, sending out [[Blasty]], Sabrina effortlessly able to dodge his attacks by using {{tp|Sabrina|Kadabra}}'s {{m|Teleport}} to stay in safety. Recognizing her opponent's control over both Teleport and {{m|Hypnosis}}, Green concludes that she must be a master of Psychic types. Sabrina introduces herself and brags that it was her who created the {{m|Light Screen}} around [[Saffron City]]. Standing by her Kadabra, she promises to treat the intruder to the wonders of the third floor, and commands a {{m|Psychic}}, causing Green to stumble in pain as all her [[Poké Ball]]s snap off her dress and fall to the ground. Sabrina laughs and gives her credit for at least being able to fool Red and Green, as her Kadabra strikes at Blasty. Sneering at Green for immediately using her strongest Pokémon, Sabrina has Kadabra hold Blasty in a {{m|Disable}} before delivering a blow that shatters its shell.


Back at the first floor, Lt. Surge continues to torment Red with his electric blasts, fainting [[Pika]]. Red's attempt to fight back with [[Saur]] seems equally hopeless, until Red has Saur redirect the leaves it scattered from its {{m|Razor Leaf}} at Lt. Surge and {{p|Zapdos}}. The attack not only severs the wires directing Zapdos' electric power away from Surge, but also ruptures the [[Gym Leader]]'s insulated suit, giving him a crippling dose of Zapdos' electricity that promptly knocks him out cold. Red congratulates Saur on a job well done before pocketing the Thunder Badge and Surge's electric-proof gloves, leaving the defeated elite agent with a warning on the undefeatable strength of a bond between a Trainer and his Pokémon.
Green cries out in disbelief, she walks over to another one of her Poké Balls and throws it out, revealing another {{p|Blastoise}}. Before Sabrina can react, Green commands out {{m|Mega Punch}}, immediately knocking down Kadabra. As the other Blastoise reveals itself to be [[Ditty]], Green sends out her {{p|Horsea}} and releases a thick {{m|Smokescreen}}, telling off Sabrina for thinking she's the only one who can play tricks on people. She puts on her modified [[Silph Scope]] to allow a clear view through the smoke, and continues taunting her. Sabrina and her Kadabra are completely disoriented, unable to even ascertain where Green's voice is coming from.


Free to go up to the second floor, Red arrives just in time before the unconscious Blue is about to receive another attack from {{p|Golbat}}...
Meanwhile on the first floor, Red is still suffering Lt. Surge's constant attacks, throwing him and [[Pika]] against one of the electric walls. Despite his pain, Red manages to send out [[Saur]], knowing he needs to make a move. Before he can call out a move, Lt. Surge strikes first with Zapdos, a {{m|Thunder Shock}} immediately almost completely knocking out Saur. Lt. Surge taunts him as Red speaks encouragement to his Pokémon to gather the strength to fight back. Firing back a {{m|Razor Leaf}}, Zapdos is still left untouched. Lt. Surge figures he needs to be dealt with in a truly decisive blow, and orders Zapdos to attack with its max strength attack, {{m|Thunder}}.  


== Major Events ==
Just before Zapdos strikes, Red orders Saur to carry out their plan. Suddenly, the loose leaves from Razor Leaf are redirected, severing the jumper cables attached to Zapdos, leaving Lt. Surge vulnerable to its electricity. Boasting that no electricity will ever make it through his insulated suit, he looks down and notices large cuts in the fabric along his body. The attack sends a crippling dose of electricity through his body, immediately knocking him to the ground, incapacitated. Red celebrates with Saur and quickly roots through Lt. Surge's pockets, producing the {{badge|Thunder}} and his electric-proof gloves. As Red leaves for the second floor, he gives Lt. Surge with a warning about what happens if you try to get by with only brute strength or raw numbers, saying that there's nothing more powerful than the bond between Trainer and Pokémon.

With Red and Blue facing off against Lt. Surge and Koga, respectively, Green is free to enter the Silph Co. building unfettered to accomplish her own objectives. However, when she enters a room on the third floor, a loud gonging sound stops her in her tracks, leaving her nervously checking her surroundings for where it could've come from. Passing through the door leading to her destination, she suddenly finds herself outside.

A voice speaks from behind her, saying that the power of Psychic-type Pokémon will force her to experience her most terrible fears. As Sabrina finishes teleporting in, Green decides to engage her in battle, sending out Blasty, Sabrina effortlessly able to dodge his attacks by using Kadabra's Teleport to stay in safety. Recognizing her opponent's control over both Teleport and Hypnosis, Green concludes that she must be a master of Psychic types. Sabrina introduces herself and brags that it was her who created the Light Screen around Saffron City. Standing by her Kadabra, she promises to treat the intruder to the wonders of the third floor, and commands a Psychic, causing Green to stumble in pain as all her Poké Balls snap off her dress and fall to the ground. Sabrina laughs and gives her credit for at least being able to fool Red and Green, as her Kadabra strikes at Blasty. Sneering at Green for immediately using her strongest Pokémon, Sabrina has Kadabra hold Blasty in a Disable before delivering a blow that shatters its shell.

Green cries out in disbelief, she walks over to another one of her Poké Balls and throws it out, revealing another Blastoise. Before Sabrina can react, Green commands out Mega Punch, immediately knocking down Kadabra. As the other Blastoise reveals itself to be Ditty, Green sends out her Horsea and releases a thick Smokescreen, telling off Sabrina for thinking she's the only one who can play tricks on people. She puts on her modified Silph Scope to allow a clear view through the smoke, and continues taunting her. Sabrina and her Kadabra are completely disoriented, unable to even ascertain where Green's voice is coming from.

Meanwhile on the first floor, Red is still suffering Lt. Surge's constant attacks, throwing him and Pika against one of the electric walls. Despite his pain, Red manages to send out Saur, knowing he needs to make a move. Before he can call out a move, Lt. Surge strikes first with Zapdos, a Thunder Shock immediately almost completely knocking out Saur. Lt. Surge taunts him as Red speaks encouragement to his Pokémon to gather the strength to fight back. Firing back a Razor Leaf, Zapdos is still left untouched. Lt. Surge figures he needs to be dealt with in a truly decisive blow, and orders Zapdos to attack with its max strength attack, Thunder.

Just before Zapdos strikes, Red orders Saur to carry out their plan. Suddenly, the loose leaves from Razor Leaf are redirected, severing the jumper cables attached to Zapdos, leaving Lt.
