Chương 42: Here Comes the Squirtle Squad
Hey so I was watching the english sub of the episode and my god are things different, you know how the Squirtle squad say they will try to make Misty's hair purple, in the original they legit try to kill her, but surprisingly the Bazookas were always fake just cherry blossom petals instead of ice.

The next day when everyone got up they practically had to pull Misty out of the Pokemon center so they could continue their journey, eventually they started the journey again to get to Vermilion City.
Along the way Bulbasaur got the hang of Sludge Bomb and Mega Drain, and they tried to find out why Weedle didn't evolve, after looking over her with Aura the best guess he had was ether his training was too effective, or it had something to do with the Queen Bee Mutation.
Kitty, Yellow's Caterpie, saw his friend grow and wanted to also evolve. This was a perfect opportunity to test his theory, he offered Yellow to help train Kitty to evolve, but that also caused the rest of her Pokemon to want to evolve as well. So 4 more Pokemon entered the training.
Eventually, 4 days passed and because Pokemon that trained needed more food to replenish their energy they were using their supplies faster than intended, they weren't losing it fast enough to be a problem before they got to Vermilion. But it was enough to be noticeable, and Ash was running low on Berries for Pokeblocks, and he didn't want to start using the good stuff yet. And the berries he was growing weren't ready yet.
On the fourth day on the road they were all sitting in their camp, Brock was helping Yellow's GeGe train with his own Geodude in a mock battle. And Misty hiding in her tent after seeing a small bug, Ash was just outside her tent looking over his Map trying to find where the small town was.
"Why do you hate Bug Pokemon so much?" Ash said mainly just making conversation.
"Because they are Gross, everyone has their own things they hate; I hate Carrots, Peppers, and Bugs!" Misty yelled out from within her tent.
"What about Surskit?" He asked wanting to find out where her double standards ended.
"They don't count, they are fine before they evolve. You cannot name any good bugs." Misty continued to say.
Ash took a breath before listing off," What about Wimpod, Golisopod, Dewpider, or Araquanid then?"
Misty opened the tent and came out a bit, "Ok fine there are some good ones but that doesn't change the fact that they are one of the three worst things in the world."
"You do realize that yesterday's lunch had both Carrots and Peppers, the one you asked for seconds from," Ash said.
Misty looked conflicted and shoved herself back into the tent, "Why didn't you tell me,"
Ash chuckled a bit, "You never asked, also it was Brock's turn to cook so go yell at him." Before getting up and walking to Brock letting Misty complain a bit in the tent.
"Hey Brock," Ash said, getting his attention, "There is a small town we can restock in, it is pretty close too, only about an hour or two walk from here." he showed the location to Brock.
"Good eye Ash, we should go better safe than sorry," Brock said.
Yellow who was sitting next to the boys looked a bit guilty, "Sorry it's my fault we are running out of supplies."
Ash gave her a pat on the head, "Don't worry about it. It's not your fault, it was bound to happen anyway, besides it's not like we are going to run out of anything."
Yellow blushed a bit and nodded before going back to play with her Pokemon.
After a bit of time they got everything packed and went on their way to get to the town.
As they were walking Bulbasuar was out and Clefairy was trying to play with him, Ash was looking around to find the pitfall that the Squirtle Squad made.
"Clefairy is as energetic as ever" Brock said, "Will she be fine jumping around so much?"
"She'll be fine, she act childish like that but she isn't dumb, she isn't going to go too far away,"
"You have a point but-" Brock said as he was cut off as the hole opened under him and Ash grabbed his arm so he wouldn't fall.
"You guys need to see where you are going, what is this the second-third time one of you almost fell for a trap." Ash said, helping Brock back up.
"Thanks, but what is a hole doing here?" Brock said in confusion before they all heard the annoyed grunts coming from the side.
Looking ahead of them they all saw 5 blue turtles with Brown shells with a yellow underbelly, each of them with sunglasses, 4 round and 1 much different than the rest.
'Wow Squirtles," Misty said in excitement before she realized something, "Wait you guys are the ones that dug that hole Aren't you, what is wrong with you we could have been hurt."
Squirtle made a imitation of Misty before they all started laughing, "Squirtle, Squirtle, Squirt"
"Why you," Misty looked like she was going to battle all of them, but not with Pokemon.
But then everyone heard a siren and the Squirtle Squad started panicking and said something that everyone understood.
[It's the Fuzz Scatter!] The leader said and they all ran in different directions, before a familiar Blue haired officer came on her motorcycle.
"Are you guys all right?" Officer Jenny approached them, "Has anyone been hurt here?"
"We are fine" Ash said as in the background Misty was pulling Brock's ear, "We just ran into some Squirtles."
She sighed "Great the Squirtle squad, did they do anything specific".
Ash raised his eyebrow and looked at the hole next to them, "No not much." he said sarcastically.
"Squirtle squad?" Yellow asked
"Yeah they are a gang of only wild Pokemon." Officer Jenny said.
"I've never heard of a Pokémon gang." Misty said, letting go of Brock's ear.
"They're all Squirtles who were deserted by their Pokémon trainers." Jenny said, catching everyone's attention, especially Bulbasuar.
"Deserted?" Yellow asked, feeling bad for them.
"They are all Pokemon who were abandoned by their trainer, so they just run wild and play tricks on the whole town."Officer Jenny said sadly, " It's really kind of sad because if they'd had somebody to care about them, they wouldn't have turned out to be as bad as they are. It's a real shame."
"How can people just abandon their Pokemon?" Misty asked.
"Sadly it is not illegal to do, we have tried to make a law preventing it but unfortunately the league can't do too much against the affairs of trainers, the best we can do is make sure they are abandoned in towns or cities." Jenny said sadly.
"I need to get going and call this in, if you see the Squirtle Squad again then be sure to contact me." Officer Jenny said as she drove off.
Brock who just got back up tried to stop her, because he hasn't asked her out yet, "Wait, Aw man how am I going to get a beautiful- Ow!?"
Misty grabbed his ear, "Is that all you think about,"
"Ow, you're going to yank my ear off, "Brock complained while struggling.
"Well we should head into the store to restock, do you guys wanna come with or is their something else you want to do." Ash asked.
"I'll go fishing, there is a nice lake over there." Misty said, pointing to a small clearing with water.
"I'll go with Misty." Yellow said.
"Alright, we'll meet up there when we have everything."
Ash and Brock walked over to the store in the town, and reached the Shop that had the very creative name 'Shop.'
They walked in and Brock immediately went to flirt with the girl on the Cash register, Ash didn't even stop him he grabbed what they needed, paid, then walked out with Brock having been rejected again.
So they walked back to the lake to meet up with the girls.

Meanwhile Jessie, James and Meowth were making their way to the same Town, just discussing civilian clothes instead of their Team Rocket uniforms.
"I'm Hungry," Meowth said, "Can we go to a restaurant,"
"Just not Pizza, I'm sick of Pizza every meal." James added.
Jessie hit both of them with a fan, "Can you focus, we are here to get Blast powder for our mission," But her stomach also grumbled.
"But I guess we can stop by to get lunch," Jessie said, making James and Meowth celebrate.
They went to a small diner in the town where they heard the rumors of the Squirtle Squad.
"Five Squirtles, those are very rare Pokemon aren't they" James said.
"Yeah if we-" Meowth said before he was cut off.
"Be quiet. Normal Pokemon don't talk, but you have a point we should get them." Jessie said.
"Well then what is the Plan then?"
"I'll tell you after we have lunch," Jessie said as conveniently their food came.
