Today the gang were now at a beach town called Palmpona Town.

"This is a nice place to relax." Yuna said.

"I agree. The beach is lovely." Brock commented.

"Ahahah Ahahah!" Takato and Mairin laughed as they played on the beach with Zack, Chespie and Light.

Alain checked the time, "As much as we want to relax more. It's time to go." He said.

"Okay. Takato! Mairin! Chespie! Zack! Light!" Yuna called out, "Time to go!"

"Okay!" Takato and Mairin said.

"Chespin!" Chespie nodded.

Zack barked.

"Pikapi!" Light ran towards her partner.

• • • • •

They gang packed up and left the area, walking along the beach.

"Pikachu Pikapi?" Light pointed towards something in front of them.

The gang notice a trainer with short dark green hair and black eyes, he was talking to a tall, cyan Pokémon.

"What's that Pokémon?" Mairin asked.

"It's a Wobbuffet." Alain replied.

[Wobbuffet, the Patient Pokémon. Wobbuffet like to live in dark areas so they can keep their pitch-black tails concealed.]

"Hello." The trainer of Wobbuffet greeted, when he notice the gang.

"Hello, nice Wobbuffet you got there." Brock complimented.

"Thanks. I'm Benny Teru."

"Nice to meet you Benny. I'm Yuna."

"Pikachu." Light waved.

"Alain."

"Heya, I'm Takato and this is Zack."

Zack barked.

"Hiya, I'm Mairin and this is Chespie."

"Chespin." Chespie smiled.

"And I'm Brock."

Benny looked at Zack and Chespie, "I've never seen these type of Pokémon before." He said.

"Their from a different Region." Yuna said.

"Ah." Benny nodded.

"What are you and your Wobbuffet doing Benny?" Brock asked.

"I was making sure my Wobbuffet was in tip top shape, I'm taking it to the Pokémon Swap Meet." Benny explained.

"Pokémon Swap Meet? What's that?" Takato asked.

"Every year they hold a swap meet here, so that Trainers can trade their Pokémon for a new Pokémon." Benny explained, "I plan to trade my Wobbuffet for a new Pokémon."

"Why would you want to trade your Wobbuffet?" Mairin asked.

"I do love my Wobbuffet but I wish to have a new Pokémon." Benny answered.

Brock thought, "That makes sense, trading Pokémon is a good way for trainers to get new Pokémon." He said.

"Don't you want to trade Poliwrath Brock?" Alain asked.

"That's right. You said that Poliwrath refuse to listen and it's was causing trouble back at the gym." Yuna said.

Brock nodded, "Your right. Ever since I caught it, I haven't been able to bond with it. I wouldn't mind a different Pokémon." He responses.

"Now that I think about it. I wish to trade some Pokémon." Yuna said.

"Same here." Alain said.

"Us too." Takato and Mairin said.

"Come with me, I'm heading over to the Pokémon Swap Meet now." Benny said.

"Thanks." Yuna said.

• • • • •

Benny led the gang to the Swap Meet location and it is held in the centre of Palmpona Town.

"Wow." Mairin awed, "This is like a festival."

Just then they heard rumbling noise.

"Hey, whats that sound?" Takato asked.

Suddenly they saw a heard of Tauros coming their way.

"What's happening?" Brock asked.

"It's a running of the Taruos." The man beside Brock replied.

"Running of the Taruos?" Alain questioned.

"Yes. It's Palmpona Town's tradition. You see if any person is brave enough to touch Taruos' Horn, while running with them, you get a special trophy." The man explained and then he ran to join in.

"Say what..." Brock almost face fault.

"That's a crazy tradition." Mairin said, eyes widen.

"You said it. I'll wait till I'm over twenty to try it." Takato said.

The gang and Benny stood on the side, away from the herd of Taruos.

The herd of Taruos started to run into a stadium.

"The Taruos have now entered the stadium! They are now ready for a the one-on-one Taruos Battling Competition!" The announcer inside the stadium announced, "In this tournament we will see whose Taruos is the strongest one of all!"

Yuna perked up at that, "Battling. Count me in!" She said and immediately got her Tauros from Professor Oak Lab's with her Pokédex and she ran towards the Taruos Competition stadium.

"There she goes..." Brock said.

"It's Yuna." Alain smiled.

• • • • •

At the moment a Taruos and it belonged to a trainer named Fernando Mitsuji, he is also the undefeated Taruos.

But when Yuna entered her Taruos, who was really excited, the competition. Yuna's Taruos overpowered Fernando's Taruos, knocking it out, her Taruos became the winner of the Taruos Battling Competition.

"That was fun." Yuna smiled and petted her Taruos. "What did you think?"

Taruos nodded, agreeing.

Yuna returned her Taruos back and headed back to the others.

• • • • •

After the Taruos Battling Competition, the gang went back to the Pokémon Swap Meet.

The Pokémon Swap Meet; has a lot of trading machines and trainers with Pokémon, also some trainers were displaying their Pokémon.

"Woah." Yuna said.

"Cool... Though, people sure are bragging a lot." Mairin said, she could hear trainers talking highly about their Pokémon.

"Well, when you've raised a Pokémon a lot, you pretty much have a reason to brag about it." Brock explained.

Just then three trainers came up to Yuna, who startled her and Light.

"Your Taruos was amazing." One trainer said.

"Strongest one that I have ever seen." Second trainer said.

"It was the best." Third trainer said.

"Can I trade for your Taruos!" All three trainers said.

"Erm... I don't want to trade my Taruos but I do have three other Taruos to trade and they are just as strong as this one. What Pokémon do you have?" Yuna asked.

The three trainers were fine with that and agreed to trade for Yuna's other Taruos'.

"I have a Mareep." The first trainer replied.

"I have a Girafarig." The second trainer replied.

"And I have an Onix." The third trainer replied.

Yuna nodded, "Okay, I'll trade you my Taruos' for them."

The three trainers nodded.

They all headed towards one of the trade machines, Yuna traded her first Taruos for a first trainers Mareep, then the second Taruos for the seconded trainer Girafarig and her last Taruos for the third trainer Onix.

"Thank you." They all thanked each other and the Three other trainers left.

"Nee-chan, when did you capture them?" Takato asked.

"Before we left Kanto. I actually have a Rhydon, Graveler, Machoke, Machamp, Primeape and a Dodrio." Yuna answered.

Brock sweat stopped, "Power much..."

Yuna shrugged her shoulders, "Now, let's see my new Onix, Mareep and Girafarig." She sent out the rock snake Pokémon, wool Pokémon and long neck Pokémon.

"Roar!" Onix appeared.

"Mareep..." The Pokémon appeared.

Girafarig appeared with a neigh.

"They sure are strong and healthy." Brock said, looking at all of them.

Suddenly the rock snake Pokémon began to glow and then it changed into a giant metal-like snake Pokémon.

"What?" Mairin said, confused.

"It evolved into a Steelix." Alain said, he saw something around the iron snake Pokémon neck, "Ah, that's the reason." He pointed out. "A Metal Coat was around its neck."

A Metal Coat looked like a small weight used to weight scales.

Yuna pulled out her Pokédex and scanned the Pokémon.

[Steelix, the Iron Snake Pokémon. The evolved form of Onix. It has been compressed underground, making its body harder than diamonds.

Note: Onix can only evolved into a Steelix, when Onix is trade holding a Metal Coat.]

[Metal Coat; Metal Coat allowed Onix and Scyther to evolve into Steelix and Scizor, respectively and also increase the power of the holder's Steel-type moves.]

"Lucky me." Yuna smiled, taking the object around Steelix's neck and placing it into her bag, before returning the iron snake Pokémon and then scanned the others.

[Mareep, the Wool Pokémon. Mareep stores electricity in their wooly coats. They avoid battles and have mild disposition.]

[Girafarig, the Long Neck Pokémon. Girafarig has a second head on its tail that bites those who approach it carelessly.]

Yuna smiled, placing her Pokédex away, "Their great." She return back her two Pokémon.

"Now, I want to trade my Victreebel, Scyther and Machoke." Takato said.

"Same here. I want to trade Nidoran and Butterfree for some new Pokémon." Mairin said.

"I need to trade Marowak, Dugtrio and Donphan. I caught them two days ago." Alain said, when Mairin looked at him.

"How about we all split up, since we all want to trade. After we trade our Pokémon, we'll meet up at the water fountain." Brock suggested.

"I'm fine with that." Yuna said.

"Same here." Takato and Mairin said.

Alain nodded, "Takato, Mairin return Zack and Chespie back to their Pokéball." Seeing some trainers eyeing Chespie and Zack.

Takato and Mairin looked at Alain with the expression, 'why!'.

"Unless you want them to be available for trading." Alain said.

"No!" The two kids said and returned back their partner Pokémon.

☾ >> ——— [Break Scene] ——— <<☽

So the next hour, the gang set out to trade Pokémon in the Swap Meet.

Takato and Mairin stayed together, they went to look to see what Pokémon they would like.

Brock had his Poliwrath out to see if any trainers would want it.

Alain went to look around to see if any Pokémon interest him.

Yuna looked around the Pokémon Swap Meet area and to see if any Pokémon that she would like.

"Keep an eye out Light, there may be a Pokémon that I would like to trade for." Yuna said.

"Pikapi." Light nodded.

"Excuse me." A boy trainer came up to Yuna, "Do you have a Pokémon that your willing to trade?" He asked.

"Yeah, I do. I have a Rhyhon, Graveler, Machoke, Machamp, Primeape and a Dodrio." Yuna replied.

"Um, if you don't mind, are you willing to trade Graveler and Dodrio for my Mime Jr. and Happiny?" The boy asked, nervously. He was afraid that the female trainer won't trade for a Pokémon so small.

"A Mime Jr. and Happiny?" Yuna questioned and pulled her Pokédex to look up the Pokémon, the boy mention.

[Mime Jr., the Mime Pokémon. The pre-evolved form of Mr. Mime. It can quickly imitate anyone it sees. It can sense people's emotions as well, and when it sense danger it erect a barrier, so it can escape.]

[Happiny, the Playhouse Pokémon. The pre-evolved form of Chansey. It loves round white things. It carries a round stone in its pouch that looks like an Egg, and gives it to people that it likes.]

"Heh, the pre-evolve form of Mr. Mime and Chansey..." Yuna said, "Cute..." She looked at the boy trainer who was looking at the ground. "Sure, I don't mind. I also did want another nurse Pokémon and my mum would love Mime Jr. since she has a Mr. Mime."

The boy looked up and smiled, "Thank you very much." He bowed.

"Your welcome. Now, let's go to a trade machine."

Yuna and the boy went to the trading machine and they traded their Pokémon. The boy got Graveler and Dudrio, Yuna got Mime Jr. and Happiny.

They both thanked each other and they left.

• • • • •

Yuna continued to look around and after seven minutes another trainer came up to her.

"Excuse me. Do you have any Ground-type or Psychic-type Pokémon to trade for my Misdreavus?" The girl asked.

Yuna pulled out her Pokédex and searched up Misdreavus.

[Misdreavus, the Screech Pokémon. Misdreavus are extremely mischievous and like to cry out at night just to startle people.]

Light sweat dropped, "Pikachu Pikapi. (It would get along with the Gengar group.)" She pointed out.

Yuna nodded, placing her Pokédex away, "Thats true." She looked at the girl, "I have a Rhydon you can trade."

"Thank you. I'll be happy to trade for it." The girl happily said.

Yuna and the girl went to a trading machine and they traded their Rhydon and Misdreavus.

They both thanked each other and left.

• • • • •

As Yuna was looking around for different Pokémon to trade, she and Light heard someone complaining about something.

Yuna looked for the voice and spotted a worker in construction clothes, complaining something about not having the right Pokémon and she was curious.

"Pikachu? (Going to asked?)" Light asked.

"Don't know." Yuna walked over to the worker, "Excuse me sir, is something wrong?" She asked.

The worker man looked at Yuna and sighs, "Yes, you see I want to trade my Mienfoo, Pidove and Jangmo-o for Pokémon that could help me with my construction work." He answered.

Yuna pulled out her Pokédex and search up those three Pokémon the man mention.

[Mienfoo, the Martial Arts Pokémon. Mienfoo's sharp claws strike quickly and precisely. It also overwhelms opponents with its skilful combination attacks.

Note: Mienfoo are native in the Unova Region.]

[Pidove, the Tiny Pigeon Pokémon. A Pidove flock's cooing can get extremely noisy. Pidove is not attracted to shiny objects.

[Jangmo-o, the Scaly Pokémon. It expresses its feelings by smacking its scales. Metallic sounds echo through the tall mountains where Jangmo-o live.

Note: Jangmo-o are native in the Alola Region.]

"A Jangmo-o? Where did you get this Pokémon from sir?" Yuna asked, looking at the picture. Alola Region, it's far away from its home.

"Ah, I got Jangmo-o from a Pokémon Egg and it hatched not too long ago. But you see has a worker I don't really have time to raise it and this one as well." The man took out a Pokémon Egg, "I found this Egg two days ago and I heard about this Pokémon Swap Meet and thought it would be perfect to find a trainer for it."

"I see. Sir, I have a Machoke, Machamp and Primeape to trade for them." Yuna said.

The worker man face lit up in happiness, "Those are great Pokémon to help me and my work. Thank you and you can take this Pokémon Egg as well." He handed her the Pokémon Egg.

"But-"

"No but, young lady. You already helped me with trading and I can tell you will take good care of it." The worker man smiled.

"Okay sir." Yuna said.

Yuna and the worker man went to a trading machine and they traded three Pokémon.

"Thank you very much, young lady." The worker man shook Yuna's hand in gratitude and he left.

"Bye sir." Yuna waved and then she looked at the Pokémon Egg, closely.

Light looked at the Pokémon Egg and felt a strong presence, "Pika." She said.

"You can sense it too huh, Light?" Yuna said, "Whatever the Pokémon is must be powerful to have a strong presence around it already."

"Pi." Light nodded.

"Well, that's everyone." Yuna said, as she place the Pokémon Egg into her bag, carefully.

☾ >> ——— [Break Scene] ——— <<☽

One hour later, the gang all arrived at the meet up area, by the water fountain.

"How did everyone go?" Yuna asked, sitting by the water fountain.

"Fine." Alain said.

Takato ran up to his sister, "I got two new Dark-type Pokémon and one Electric-type." He smiled.

"Oh." Yuna smiled.

"I traded my Poliwrath for a new Pokémon and it's a Rock-type, perfect." Brock said.

"I got two new Pokémon." Mairin smiled.

"What Pokémon did you get Yuna?" Brock asked.

"Well, you already know about Steelix, Mareep and Girafarig. I'll show you the new ones I got." Yuna tossed out six Pokéballs, "Mime Jr., Happiny, Misdreavus, Mienfoo, Pidove and a Jangmo-o."

"Dhawww, soo cute~" Mairin squealed and poke the mime and playhouse Pokémon who giggled.

"Mime Jr. is going to mom, Mimey would love him." Yuna said.

Takato nodded, agreeing.

"I recognise most Pokémon, expect for... What Pokémon is that?" Brock asked, pointing towards the scale Pokémon, who sticking close to Yuna.

"Its a Jangmo-o, a Pokémon from the Alola Region, a Dragon-type." Yuna replied.

"Huh, didn't Uncle Lance tell us about them." Takato said.

"He did and he wanted to get one for himself." Yuna smiled, "And what about you guys?"

"It's easier to show everyone." Brock said and left out his Pokémon.

Takato, Mairin and Alain also let out their newly trade Pokémon.

Yuna eyes lit up, "Wow..." She took out her Pokédex and scanned all the Pokémon that the others got.

[Dwebble, the Rock Inn Pokémon. After finding a suitable rock, Dwebble digs a hole in the rock's bottom to use as a protective shell. Dwebble can make rocks easier to carve by producing a liquid from its mouth.

Note: Dwebble are native in the Unova Region.]

"Nice one Brock. Dwebble is part Bug and Rock-type." Alain said.

"Exactly and it's perfect." Brock agreed.

[Sandile, the Desert Croc Pokémon. A dark membrane protects its eyes from the sun, and it buried itself in the sand with its eyes and nose sticking out.

Note: Sandile are native in the Unova Region.]

[Minun, the Cheering Pokémon. Minun cares more for its teammates than for itself, sending off showers of sparks while cheering them on.

Note: Minun are native in the Hoenn Region.]

"And I see you were able to get yourself an Umbreon as well." Yuna said, looking at the moonlight Pokémon.

"Bre." Umbreon said.

Takato nodded, enthusiastically, "Yeah."

[Hoppip, the Cottonweed Pokémon. This hopping Pokémon is light as a feather, and can be lifted by the gentlest breeze.]

[Plusle, the Cheering Pokémon. Plusle always supports its teammates, giving celebratory sparks when a teammate does well.

Note: Plusle are native in the Hoenn Region.]

"I'm surprised that you both have Minun and Plusle." Yuna said.

"We got them from one trainer." Mairin said. "They are siblings."

"Min Minun!"

"Plus Plus!"

Both cheering Pokémon nodded and high five each other.

[Larvitar, the Rock Skin Pokémon. Larvitar generally hatch deep within the earth and take a long time before coming to the surface.]

"Wow Alain, you got a Cyndaquil and a Pidove as well." Brock said. "You got lucky."

"Cyndaquil is a male." Alain said.

"My Pidove is a female and Alain's one is a male." Yuna said, as the tiny pigeon Pokémon was cooing on her head.

"Everyone got amazing Pokémon." Brock said.

"Yay!" Takato and Mairin said, happily.

"Pi Pikachu Pika. (Yuna, you forgot about the Pokémon Egg.)" Light said.

"Oh and I almost forgot. I also got a Pokémon Egg from the worker man who I got Mienfoo, Pidove and Jangmo-o from as well." Yuna took out the Pokémon Egg carefully and showed it to the gang.

Alain felt the presence of the Pokémon, whatever it is, it strong.

"Wow..." Mairin said.

"That is so cool." Takato said.

"Wonder what it could be?" Brock questioned.

Yuna shrugs her shoulder and she place it back carefully into her bag. "Don't know but I know it would be amazing." She said.

Everyone returned back their new Pokémon back to their Pokéball.

"Wonder if Benny has traded his Wobbuffet yet." Brock said.

"Let's go and see." Yuna said.

• • • • •

When the gang found Benny and he hasn't traded his Wobbuffet yet.

Yuna looked thoughtful, "I think we need to demonstrate how great Wobbuffet can be." She suggested.

"How should we do that?" Benny asked.

"Well, Wobbuffet can only use the moves Counter, Mirror Coat, Safeguard and Destiny Bond." Alain responses.

"The moves such as Counter and Mirror Coat are amazing because they bounce back attacks that are thrown at them. So what we should do is demonstrate the moves Counter and Mirror Coat." Yuna explained.

"I get it. If we demonstrate what those two moves can do, people will see how great a Pokémon Wobbuffet can be." Brock said.

The gang and Benny all agreed to the idea of Yuna and they went to set up the plan.

What everyone didn't know was that trouble was brewing at the Pokémon Swap Meet.

...

...

...

It was Team Rocket and they intent to use the Pokémon Swap as their goal.

"It's a good thing that we found out about this Pokémon Swap Meet." Jessie said.

James nodded, "I agree, there are so many Pokémon here and we will be rich." He said.

Jessie smirked, "And with our machine it will be a snap taking them all." She said.

Team Rocket has a trading machine of their own but it wasn't real but a fake.

"Meowth are you ready?" James asked.

"Meowth, I am. I have all the empty Pokéballs and the basket for the real Pokéballs are all set up. We're ready to go." Meowth answered.

The trick of Team Rocket is that they are dressed up as scientists who does the swap with the trading machine for the trainers, but instead of the trainers getting their traded Pokémon they are getting empty Pokéball with no Pokémon inside.

"Time to get to work." Jessie stated.

• • • • •

Meanwhile the gang started to demonstrate Benny's Wobbuffet.

"Now everyone, I'm pretty sure that don't think that Wobbuffet is a great Pokémon. But we're here to prove you wrong." Brock spoke, through a microphone.

Yuna and Alain, stood on the side.

Takato and Benny were facing each other, like in a Pokémon Battle and Wobbuffet opponent or helper is Politeod.

"Okay, Politoed use Double Slap."

"Poli~" The frog Pokémon ran towards the patient Pokémon with his hands ready to slap.

"Use Counter Wobbuffet." Benny commanded.

"Wobbuffet!" The patient Pokémon body became outlined in pink.

"Politoed!" Politoed used Double Slap but the physical attack just bounced off, "Poli!" The frog Pokémon got hurt from the Counter attack.

"What Wobbuffet just did is used the move Counter. The move Counter bounces off physical moves like Double Slap from the opponent and then the attacks hits the opponent back double the damage."

"Water Gun." Takato said.

"Poliiiii!" The frog Pokémon launches a steam of water form his mouth towards the patient Pokémon.

"Mirror Coat Wobbuffet." Benny commanded.

"Wob-buffet." Wobbuffet's body became surround in white mirror effect.

As the Water Gun hits Wobbuffet, the Water Gun attack bounces off and went back to the frog Pokémon who jumped out of the way.

"And Wobbuffet next move is Mirror Coat. Mirror Coat is a move that bounces back special moves like Water Gun and doubles the damage. So even if Wobbuffet don't do attacks like Psychic or Solar Beam or whatever special attacks, it has brilliant defensive Pokémon when it's uses Counter or Mirror Coat."

The crowd was impressed with what the patient can do.

Just then a lady with red hair and glasses, turned up.

Unknown to everyone that it was Jessie from Team Rocket in disguise.

Jessie saw the demonstration that the gang and Benny did with the Wobbuffet and she decide that it would be a great help for Team Rocket.

"I would like to trade Lickitung for your Wobbuffet, please." Jessie said.

Benny was happy, "That would great." He said.

Benny and Jessie went to the real trading machine and did the trade.

"Thanks for the Lickitung." Benny said.

"No problem kid and thanks for your fabulous Wobbuffet." Jessie said and left.

• • • • •

At the time Jessie was heading back, James and Meowth has done themselves greatly, with the fake trading machine.

"Ahaha, we got a whole full bag of Pokéballs." Meowth said, gleefully.

James agreed, with a dangerously smile on his face, "Your right... But we really should move before those trainers realise that the Pokéballs are empty." He stated.

"I agree with." Jessie said, arriving at their area.

"Welcome back Jessie." James greeted.

"I'm surprise that you traded Lickitung for that Wobbuffet Jessie." Meowth said.

Jessie made a face, "I had enough of that disgusting tongue of Lickitung." She then smirked, "Beside Wobbuffet's Counter and Mirror Coat moves will be great help." She said.

Suddenly crowd of people turned up and they looked mad.

"Hey! My Pokéballs were empty!" A man shouted, angrily.

"Yeah! Where is my Pokémon?!" Another man demanded.

"Give back my Pokémon!" A woman shouted out.

The gang heard all the shouting and saw a large crowd of people yelling.

"What's going on?" Yuna asked.

Team Rocket knew that the plan was over, they revealed themselves to the gang and everyone, they also explained about their fake trading machine.

Meowth smirked and took out a hand bazooka and aimed at the crowd.

Yuna and Alain tense at that.

When Meowth fired it a large net appeared and caught all the crowd, including Brock, Takato and Mairin. Yuna and Alain were able to move out of the way before the net hit them.

"Time for a getaway!" Jessie said.

Team Rocket jumped into the balloon and flies away.

"Ava! / Pidove!" Yuna and Alain sent out the tiny pigeon Pokémon.

Both Pidove appears with a cooing sound.

"Follow that balloon." Yuna commanded.

Both tiny pigeon Pokémon nodded and flew off after the Meowth head hot air balloon.

"Brock. Mairin. Takato." Alain calling our their names.

"Alain! Were fine." Takato said.

"Expect for the net." Mairin added.

"Yuna, Alain go." Brock said, grumbling at the annoying net, "We'll wait here."

Both Yuna and Alain looked at each other and nodded, they both ran off, after Team Rocket.

• • • • •

Team Rocket was hiding in the forest, with the hot air balloon and then big bag of Pokéballs.

"Aha, we hit the jackpot." Meowth laughs.

"Your right. Our fake trading machine may have gotten found out but we have no failed yet." Jessie said.

"Heh." James smirked.

"Team Rocket!" Yuna shouted out, "Give back those Pokéballs!"

Alain and Yuna turned up with their ting pigeon Pokémon flying beside them.

"Oh great it's the two twerps." James groaned.

"Not a chance twerps." Jessie said. "Go Arbork, Cloyster, Wobbuffet!" She sent out the cobra Pokémon, bivalve Pokémon and the patient Pokémon.

"Go!" James sent out his poison gas Pokémon, flycatcher Pokémon and his new cottonweed Pokémon.

Jessie was surprised, "When did you get a Hoppip James?" She asked.

"I swapped it for a measly Magikarp I got yesterday." James replied.

"A Wobbuffet." Yuna blinked, surprised.

"That Wobbuffet was Benny's." Alain said, confirming his girlfriend thought. "Jessie must've disguise herself to trade for a Wobbuffet."

Yuna grimace, "This is going to be really tough." She said.

"With Wobbuffet's moves, yes." Alain agreed.

Yuna sighs, "Go Ianthe!" She sent out her unique intertwining Pokémon.

"Syl~" Ianthe appeared with a sparkle and her ribbon feelers were wrapped around her trainers wrist.

"Pika!" Light jumped in.

"Go Meowstic!" Alain sent out the constraint Pokémon.

"Meowstic." Meowstic appeared.

Both tiny pigeon cooed as they are ready to battle.

"Arbok use Poison Sting! Cloyster use Spike Cannon!" Jessie commanded.

"Weezing use Sludge attack! Victreebel use Magical Leaf! Hoppip use Bullet Seed!" James commanded.

"Meowstic return them back." Alain countered.

"Meowww!" Both of Meowstic's ears stood straight up and a blue outline appears around each of the attacks.

"Yikes!" Meowth yelped.

"Wobbuffet use Mirror Coat!" Jessie commanded.

"Wobbuffet!" Wobbuffet stood in front of all the Pokémon and it's body became surrounded in white mirror colour and all of the attacks were bounced off, sent back.

"Use Protect." Yuna and Alain said.

"Syl~"

"Meow~"

Both intertwining Pokémon and constraint Pokémon brought up a green barrier around themselves, blocking the double damage attack.

"Now Light use Iron Tail on Wobbuffet!" Yuna said, quickly as the Protect was brought down.

"Pika!" Light uses her speed and she disappeared and reappeared in front of the patient Pokémon, her tail glowed metallic colour and she immediately slammed it onto Wobbuffet's stomach, sending fly back, crashing into the trees.

"Wobbuffet..." The patient Pokémon was knocked out.

Jessie gritted her teeth, "Return!" She recalled back her unconscious Pokémon.

"Now Ianthe use Moonblast on Cloyster! Light use Focus Punch on Arbok!" Yuna said.

"Ava, Pidove both of you use Air Cutter on Hoppip and Victreebel." Alain commanded. "Meowstic use Thunderbolt on Weezing."

"Sylveon~" Ianthe opened her mouth and fires a large pink sparking orb towards the bivalve Pokémon.

"Cloyster!" Cloyster was surprised by the attack and it was hit, knocking it out.

"Pikapi!" Light disappeared once more and reappeared above the cobra Pokémon, her tiny fist had a brown aura around it and she punch Arbok on its head, hard.

"CARRRRBOKK!" The cobra Pokémon cried out in pain and it collapsed onto the ground with swirling eyes.

Ava and Pidove combined their Air Cutter attacks towards the two Grass-type, hitting them directly and then they immediately went into Aerial Ace, knocking both Hoppip and Victreebel out.

"Meowstic!" The constraint Pokémon fires a Thunderbolt at the poison gas Pokémon.

"Weezing Weez!" Weezing cried out in pain and then collapsed onto the ground with swirling eyes.

"Oh no!" Jessie and James exclaimed.

"No!" Meowth yelled out.

"Meowstic use Hyper Beam." Alain said.

"Ianthe use Hyper Beam as well." Yuna said.

Both constraint and intertwining Pokémon gathered up energy and fired the Hyper Beam. Meowstic Hyper Beam was orange and Ianthe Hyper Beam was pink because of her ability; Pixilate.

"GYAHHHH!" Team Rocket hugged each other as the Hyper Beam was closing in.

BOOM! BLAST!

"LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET IS BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Team Rocket shouted, as they were flying away with their knocked out Pokémon.

Yuna ran towards the bag of Pokéballs and took a look, "The Pokéballs are okay." She said, in relief.

Alain nodded, "Let's get them back to the trainers." He said.

Yuna and Alain return back all their Pokémon and they separated the bag of Pokéballs into two, so they could carry and they headed back to the town.

☾ >> ——— [Break Scene] ——— <<☽

The sun was setting, the trainers who were caught in the net were all free and waiting for the two trainers that went after the thieves, to get back their Pokéballs.

"Pikapi!" Light called out.

"Huh?" Brock, Mairin and Takato looked up and saw the electric mouse Pokémon with Yuna and Alain.

"Nee-chan! Alain!" Takato shouted out.

Yuna and Alain place the bags of Pokéballs down and all the trainers immediately went to take their Pokéball, they greatly thanked them both.

Mairin sighs in relief, "I'm glad that they are happy." She said.

Takato nodded, "Yeah."

Just then Benny turned up and he has new Lickitung out of its Pokéball.

"I'm glad you were able to trade your Wobbuffet Benny." Mairin said.

"So am I, because I think this Lickitung is great and I like it a lot." Benny smiled.

"Licky!" Lickitung started to lick its new trainer face in affection, it like Benny a lot and it was happy being with him, than with its precious trainer.

"I was hoping to see that lady I traded with again." Benny frowned, "I mean, we did thanked each other after the trade but I wanted to say goodbye again."

"That's good." Brock said.
