The Journey of Ash Ketchum(Kanto)

Viridian Forest

Viridian Forest

Ash & Serena were walking through Viridian Forest talking to each other

"So Serena, How's everything in Kalos?" Ash asked

"Everything is going great" Serena said "How are things with you & your family?"

"Oh, it's going awesome" Ash said "I managed to catch a few Pokémon of my own. Right now, I have 5 Pokémon. Pikachu, Pidgey, Spearow, Rattata, & Meowth"

"Wow, you've made good progress" She said

"So, how are your friends & mom in Kalos?" He asked

"They're doing fine," she said

"Hey Serena, do you remember Team Rocket?" He asked

"I do. Why do you ask?" she asked

Ash told Serena about his encounter with the newly revived Team Rocket. She was shocked & surprised

"Ash, you don't think your dad revived Team Rocket?" She asked

"I don't know, but I'm gonna get to the bottom of it" Ash said

"Hey Boss, I caught a Pokémon" Meowth said as he held up a green caterpillar-like Pokémon

"Ra?" the Pokémon said feeling confused

Caterpie, the Worm Pokémon, A Bug Type, Caterpie is recommended for Trainers just starting their journey—it doesn't require much effort to catch & raise this Pokémon, To repel Flying Types that like to attack it, Caterpie produces a terrible smell from its antennae

Serena giggled "Meowth, A trainer's Pokémon doesn't catch a wild Pokémon for them. Trainers have their Pokémon weaken a wild Pokémon & the trainer catches it "

"Oh, but can we keep this one, please" Meowth pleaded hugging the Caterpie. Truth is, he thought Caterpie was adorable.

"Sure, I always wanted a Caterpie" Ash said as he pulled out a Poké Ball & caught the Caterpie

"Y'know Ash, it surprised me when I heard Meowth talk" Serena said "How did he learn how to talk"

"Well, let's just say that he was trying to impress a female Meowth because she preferred being with humans" Ash explained "Unfortunately Meowth's plan didn't work"

"Oh, I'm sorry to hear that" Serena apologized

"If you're wondering why he & Pikachu are out of their Poké Balls, it's because they're not comfortable being inside them" Ash explained "That's why I had Professor Oak gave me an extra space, so I could carry 7 Pokémon instead of 6"

"Oh, that's ok." Serena said "Eevee doesn't like being cooped up inside her Poké Ball either"

"Hey Boss, there's another one" Meowth said as he pointed at a light tan worm-like Pokémon with a pink nose. Ash pulled out his Rotom Phone.

Weedle, the Hairy Bug Pokémon, a Bug & Poison Type, Weedle's sense of smell is excellent. With its large nose, it can sniff out the leaves it likes best.
