{{Tense}} | {{Tense}} | ||
Our heroes | Our heroes were wandering through the forest without a compass, trying to find the path to [[Vermilion City]]. {{Ash}} and [[Misty]] were fighting, as usual, this time over who led them astray, while [[Brock]] was trying to get them to cool down. | ||
They | They paused for a rest, and Ash saw an {{p|Oddish}} taking a drink. Misty sent her {{TP|Misty|Starmie}} to fight the Oddish so she could catch it. The Oddish was defeated, but Misty's [[Poké Ball]] was deflected by the appearance of a {{p|Bulbasaur}} before she could claim it. The Bulbasaur attacked and defeated the Starmie; Ash sent his {{AP|Butterfree}} after the Bulbasaur with a {{m|Sleep Powder}} attack, but the Bulbasaur blew the powder back at Butterfree. Both the Oddish and the Bulbasaur ran off into the underbrush. | ||
The trio | The trio attempted to cross a rope bridge, but a wind started to rip the bridge apart. Brock fell into the river below, while Misty and Pikachu clang to Ash. Ash ultimately managed to pull them up, and the three made their way to the end of the bridge. They made their way down to water level and went looking for Brock. At once, Misty fell through a dead fall into a pit. Ash pulled her out, and they went on looking. As they walked along, Misty's toe caught a rope, and they found themselves suspended in a net. They were found by Bulbasaur. | ||
[[Team Rocket]] | [[Team Rocket]] appeared, looking for a village across the bridge. | ||
Ash | Ash speculated that Brock had been washed to sea and shanghaied by pirates; moments later, Brock appeared and cut them down. Brock related his experience in the river; he was rescued from the rapids by an "incredibly beautiful" girl. Brock took them to the village and introduced them to the girl, [[Melanie]]. | ||
Ash and Misty | Ash and Misty noticd the large number of Pokémon in the village and wondered if they belonged to Melanie. Brock explained that this village is a place for abandoned or injured Pokémon to come to rest and relax. Melanie cares for them until they're better, then they leave. Melanie collected plants to use for medicine, though she said she's unqualified to be a Pokémon doctor. Misty teased Brock for falling in love with Melanie; he reacted a little violently, fearing Melanie might overhear. | ||
Melanie | Melanie explained that she set the traps they fell into to prevent [[Pokémon Trainer]]s from reaching the village. She was trying to protect the injured Pokémon from being captured while they are too ill to escape. | ||
[[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} | [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} tried to cross the remains of the bridge, but it collapsed under them, dumping them into the river. | ||
Brock promised Melanie they wouldn't capture any of the Pokémon in the village; Misty | Brock promised Melanie they wouldn't capture any of the Pokémon in the village; Misty asked if he sealed the promise with a kiss, and Brock thumped her hard on the top of her head. Misty agreed anyway, saying, "Only bad guys try to capture sick Pokémon." Ash worried that the traps weren't enough to keep robbers away, saying, "You'd have to be pretty stupid to fall into one of those holes." Almost immediately, Team Rocket climbed out of a hole and Jessie said, "That's the third hole we've fallen into!" They got out only to immediately get caught in a net. | ||
Brock and Ash | Brock and Ash were tending to a {{p|Staryu}}, while Misty apologized to the Oddish. She and Ash began quarreling, and the Bulbasaur tackled Misty, thinking Oddish was in danger. Melanie explained that Bulbasaur volunteered to protect the whole village. Bulbasaur tried to push Ash out of the village because it didn't trust Pokémon Trainers. Ash wished he had a Pokémon that brave. | ||
Team Rocket | Team Rocket appeared from behind a cloud, standing on a balloon-lifted platform, reciting their mantra. They landed in a clearing outside the village, and tried to collect all the Pokémon in the village with a massive vacuum. Brock herded everyone into the cabin, but Oddish got caught in the suction. Bulbasaur rescued Oddish with its {{m|Vine Whip|vine whip}}, and Ash helped block the wind so it could carry Oddish to the cabin. The vacuum started to actually pull the roof off the cabin, so Bulbasaur used its vine whips to smack the hose around. Ash released his {{AP|Pidgeotto}} with instructions to start a {{m|Gust}} attack. The resultant tornado tossed Team Rocket and their platform into the distance. | ||
Melanie | Melanie asked Ash to take the Bulbasaur with him; the village was too small for its bulb to grow. She said the Pokémon are staying in the village too long, because the Bulbasaur had done too good a job of protecting them. She felt Ash would be a good Trainer for Bulbasaur. Bulbasaur agreed to go with Ash, on condition that they battle first. Ash sent Pikachu, and the two traded rams. Bulbasaur used its vine whips to toss Pikachu around, but Ash called for a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, which shocked Bulbasaur into submission, allowing Ash to catch it in a Poké Ball. Brock offered to stay and help, but Melanie refused, telling him to continue on his adventures. | ||
