Chapter 91: Chapter 91: Following The Diglett
(Soon enough, Team Rocket hears what is going on.)
Jessie: "We're Pokemon trainers, aren't we? Why don't we try to win that reward?"
(Jessie says.)
James: "That's a brilliant idea, Jessie,"
(James says.)
(Then Jessie says.)
Jessie: "If we get rid of the Diglett, we spend a week at that hot spring resort. I could use a rest."
James: "I could use a little relaxation, myself, Jessie. I'll get rid of those Diglett!"
(James says, standing on his feet.)
Jessie: "Don't forget, James. We're a team,"
(Jessie replies.)
(James says.)
James: "You're right. I almost forgot that."
Jessie and James: "And our team is, Team Rocket!"
(Jessie and James says.)
(Meowth rolls his eyes and wonders if it's possible for him to get himself a less embarrassing team.)
(Suddenly, Jessie and James feel a strange sensation.)
(Jessie becomes weary.)
Jessie: "Oh, it sounds like those…"
James: "Aliens are back!"
(James adds, a little frightened.)
(Then, they both fall over.)
(Soon, the construction is happening again and the Pokemon run away in fright.)
(Meanwhile, the Foreman is addressing the trainers who arrive, including Mew and her friends.)
(The Foreman announces.)
Foreman: "We greatly appreciate all of you talented Pokemon trainers interrupting your training to come here and help us get rid of the Diglett!"
(Meanwhile, Team Rocket is spying on them.)
Jessie: "Look at all those punks! Each outfit is more dreadful than the last,"
(Jessie says.)
(James wags his finger.)
James: "Tsk tsk tsk. Jessie, there's no need to be catty."
Meowth: "What's wrong with catty?!"
(Meowth exclaims, feeling insulted and scratches James' face.)
(Jessie soon says.)
Jessie: "I just thought of something! With this many trainers, imagine how many Pokemon they must have!"
(Jessie then checks the calculator.)
Jessie: "Let's see. If each of them has six, there'd be six times that many Pokemon!"
Meowth: "You can do the math, I just wanna grab all those Pokemon!"
(Meowth says.)
Jessie: "It's a Pokemon bonanza!"
(Jessie cheers.)
James: "All we have to do is…"
(James says.)
(But soon realizes something.)
James: "Forget it. Let's just give up now."
Jessie: "James, what's the matter? What's wrong?"
(Jessie asks.)
James: "How can we possibly defeat all those Pokemon when all we got are.."
(James whines.)
(Jessie soon realizes.)
Jessie: "Ekans."
James: "And Koffing,"
(James adds.)
(They soon sigh to realize that their two Pokemon against that many trainers is a no winner for them.)
(Jessie then says.)
Jessie: "Another sneak attack!"
James: "They've never worked before in that past, have they?"
(James says, drawing circles with his finger.)
Jessie: "No,"
(Jessie says, defeated.)
(Meowth then says.)
Meowth: "How bout plan B?!"
(Jessie lifts her head up.)
Jessie: "You know what this would mean?"
James: "Let's try it!"
(James agrees.)
Meowth: "It's the.."
(Meowth says.)
(Then all three say.)
Jessie, James and Meowth: "Principal of Induced Evolution!"
(Back at the site, a poster of a Diglett with an X is hanging behind the foreman.)
(The Foreman says.)
Foreman: "Pokemon trainers, here you see Diglett, the greatest parasitic bug Pokemon of the century!"
(Gary interrupts.)
Gary: "Just a minute! Technically, Diglett is not a bug Pokemon. As a matter of fact, the term mole Pokemon would be more appropriate. With a height of eight inches, and a weight of two pounds, they're hardly candidates to be called the greatest anything of this century."
Mew: "They may be small, but they are fast and are very good diggers,"
(Mew adds.)
(The Foreman says.)
Foreman: "They may seem to be weak, but together, they can destroy."
(He then notices something and panics.)
Foreman: "It's the Diglett! It's the Diglett!"
(Right on cue, a Digleet starts to tunnel towards the buses and sink them to the ground.)
(Then the Diglett begins to pop up from the ground.)
(Gary steps forward.)
Gary: "I'll take care of this!"
Gary: "Now everyone will be able to see the top Pokemon trainer in action!"
(Gary says with confidence.)
(He then kisses his Pokeball, and says.)
Gary: "This should do the trick!"
(Gary then throws his Pokeball in front of the buses.)
(However, to his shock, Gary's Pokemon begins to come out, but goes back in.)
(Gary exclaims.)
Gary: "Hey what?!"
(Everyone is stunned to see the result.)
Misty: "It won't come out!"
(Misty says.)
Mew: "What's wrong?"
(Mew wonders.)
Pikachu: "Pikachu," (Same here.)
(Pikachu says.)
Eevee: "Eevee." (Me too.)
(Eevee replies.)
(Suddenly, a Diglett digs through the ground with the Pokeball on it.)
(Then lifts its head up to give Gary his Pokeball.)
Gary: "Oh, thanks,"
(Gary says, taking his Pokeball.)
(Then realizes.)
Gary: "Wait! This can't happen!"
(Then Gary holds out another Pokeball.)
Gary: "Okay, I can take care of this! I'll just bring out my best Pokemon! You can handle it!"
(Then kisses the Pokeball three times for good luck.)
(Then he throws the Pokeball.)
Gary: "Go get em!"
(However, the same result happens.)
(The Pokemon refuses to come out.)
Gary: "What's going on here?!"
(Gary asks, shocked.)
(He then begins to throw the rest of his Pokeballs.)
Gary: "Alright, I'll show em! I'll use every Pokemon I have!"
(The Foreman then screams.)
Foreman: "Please, somebody stop them! Stop the Diglett!"
(Every other trainer who arrives begins to throw their Pokeballs.)
(so their Pokemon can battle the Digletts.)
(but the same thing happens like to Gary.)
(All their Pokemon refuse to come out.)
(Soon, all the Digletts return the Pokeballs to their original trainers.)
Misty: "At least they're polite,"
(Misty says.)
Brock: "Yeah, and unstoppable,"
(Brock says.)
Mew: "That's weird,"
(Mew replies.)
(Gary then says.)
Gary: "They won't come out."
Mew: "For some reason, the Pokemon refused to battle the Diglett. I wonder why,"
(Mew says.)
(Suddenly, they hear banging sounds and turn their heads to see.)
(the Foreman trying to hit the Digletts with a mallet.)
(but they keep ducking their heands into the ground.)
Foreman: "You won't get away with this! Go away!"
(The Foreman says in anger as he continues to smash on his mallet.)
(Gary says.)
Gary: "That won't work! Diglett can pull their heads in at 186,282 miles per second!"
Misty: "What's that?"
(Misty asks.)
Mew: "It's the speed of light, right Gary?"
(Mew asks.)
Gary: "That's right. Diglett aren't very strong, but they can move super fast,"
(Gary says.)
Mew: "And dig as fast as well,"
(Mew adds.)
(Gary then turns to Mew.)
Gary: "I'm surprised you haven't called out your Pokemon."
Mew: "I am alright, but I'm not going to battle them,"
(Mew says, and brings out her Pokedex.)
Misty: "Are you sure? Your Pokemon might not come out, either,"
(Misty says.)
(But Brock says.)
Brock: "Actually, I think Mew's Pokemon might come now."
Misty: "How can you tell?"
(Misty asks.)
Brock: "It's Mew after all, and she wants to help Pokemon,"
(Brock answers.)
Misty: "You're right. Mew doesn't really want to hurt the Pokemon, and her Pokemon knows that,"
(Misty says.)
(Mew then says.)
Mew: "Maybe Sandshrew and I can talk to Diglett. Ground Pokemon to Ground Pokemon."
(Then tosses her Pokeball.)
Mew: "Come on out, Sandshrew."
(With that, Sandshrew comes out of the Pokeball when no one else would.)
(Mew kneels to Sandshrew.)
Mew: "Sandshrew, can you help me talk to the Digletts and ask them why they're stopping the construction of the dam?"
Sandshrew: "Sandshrew," (Okay.)
(Sandshrew answers with a nod.)
(Mew and Sandshrew walk to a Diglett and they both sit next to each other.)
Mew: "Excuse us, Diglett?"
(Mew calls out.)
(Diglett turns to Mew and Sandshrew.)
Diglett: "Dig? (Yes?)
Sandshrew: "Sandshrew Sand," (Can we ask you something?)
(Sandshrew asks.)
Diglett: "Diglett," (Okay.)
(Diglett says.)
Mew: "Can you tell us who you are disturbing the construction on the Gaiva dam, or why the Pokemon refuse to come out of their Pokeballs to fight?"
(Mew asks.)
Diglett: "Diglett Dig Diglett Dig Diglett," (Because it disturbs our home)
(Diglett answers.)
Mew: "Really?"
(Mew asks.)
Diglett: "Diglett. Diglett Dig Diglett Dig Diglett Diglett " (That's right. Listen for our song and you'll know the answer.) Diglett says.
Mew and Sandshrew: "Song?/Sand?" (Song?)
(Mew and Sandshrew say, confused.)
Diglett: "Dig Diglett" (Yes, tonight.)
(Diglett says and goes back underground.)
(Gary asks.)
Gary: "So what did Diglett say?"
Mew: "Diglett said that the construction is disturbing their home and we'll find out why tonight,"
(Mew says.)
(Later in the night, Mew and her friends are relaxing in the hot springs.)
(Mew explains to her friends, including Gary, what Diglett has told them.)
Misty: "So Diglett said that we need to listen to the song and we'll have our answers tonight?"
(Misty asks.)
Mew: "That's right,"
(Mew says.)
Brock: "And they'll tell us why Pokemon wouldn't come out of their Pokeballs,"
(Brock says.)
Mew: "Also right,"
(Mew says.)
(Suddenly, Pikachu points out.)
Pikachu: "Pika Pi," (Look over there.)
Eevee: "Eevee Eev," (Here they are.)
(Eevee adds.)
(Everyone turns to see the rocks and Diglett pops up.)
Mew: "Diglett!"
(Mew says, surprised.)
(The group quickly gets up from the water.)
(Just then, the Diglett from before comes up to them.)
Mew: "It's the Diglett from before,"
(Mew says.)
Diglett: "Diglett Dig," (Follow me.)
(Diglett says.)
(Mew turns to her friends.)
Mew: "Diglett says to follow them."
Gary: "Then let's hurry,"
(Gary says.)
(After getting dressed, Mew along with her friends begin to follow the Digletts.)
(with Pikachu and Eevee close behind them.)
(They soon run past the Foreman who continues to bang on the ground.)
(to attack the Pokemon, but they continue to follow the Diglett.)
