It's another beautiful day in Metropolis, as Kara was getting out of bed.

[alarm ringing]

Female Reporter: And in this morning's headlines, Superman is at it again.

Kara: [smashes alarm] [groaning]

Soon, she was making her way to school, but everywhere she went, she always seemed to see Superman, on the news and on posters.

Female Reporter: And after such a trying ordeal, it was all thanks to Superman that the orphans were saved. In other news, Superman...

Radio Announcer: Metropolis's Big Blue Boy Scout, Superman, a hero for all of us-

Tourists: Superman! Superman! Superman!

Kara: [splashed by water from bus] [groaning]

Eventually, she arrived at school, feeling relieved.

Kara: [sighing] Finally, a place where I don't have to see his annoying face- [newspaper in face] [groaning in frustration] [stomps on paper]

Ash: Hey, Kara! What's got your Exeggcute scrambled?

Pikachu: PIKA?

Kara: Superman, that's what!

Ash: Superman?

Kara: Metropolis' #1 hero! He gets on my nerves sometimes. Those newspaper people can't think of any other hero to do a report on, but Superman! And what's worse, he's my cousin!

Ash: [gasps] He's your cousin?!

Pikachu: PIKA?!

Kara: Yeah! He's just a show off! I mean, what does he have that I don't?

Ash: [nods] Hmm. I hear ya! He is an awesome hero with a big heart, but you're right about him being a show off!

Kara: Yeah! But do you know what he doesn't have?

Ash: What would that be?

Kara: [wrapping and arm around Ash] An awesome brother figure like you!

Ash: [blushes] Aw shucks!

Kara: [takes off Ash's hat and noogies him] Noogie!

Ash: [laughing]

Pikachu: [laughing] PIKACHU!

Kara: [puts hat back on him] Plus, I still don't have my own Pokémon yet, which really annoys me as well!

Ash: I'm sure you'll get a Pokémon of your own, Kara. Who knows? You might get one today or tomorrow. But in the end, you'll have a Pokémon of your very own. Or two for that matter.

Kara: Well, ya do have a point.

Ash: Plus, Diana doesn't have a Pokémon yet! You're not the only one!

Kara: Yeah that's true!

That's when they met up with Diana, who seemed very excited.

Diana: Ash, I have the most wonderful news!

Ash: What is it Diana?

Pikachu: PIKA?

Diana: I have procured my first Pokémon!

Ash: [gasps] Really?!

Pikachu: PIKA?!

Kara: WHAT?!

Diana: [pulls out a PokéBall and opens it] Behold!

Pidgey: [appearing] PIDGEY!

Ash: Whoa! Diana, you caught a Pidgey!
