After registering for the Johto League, and meeting some new Pokemon in New Bark Town, Mew and her friends are on the road to Violet City, to compete for her first Johto League badge.

"I sure am glad we got to see a real live Totodile," Mew says.

"Yeah, and Cyndaquil is one of the cutest Pokémon I've ever seen," Misty says.

"Yeah. It was adorable," Jen says.

"Too bad we didn't get to see a Chikorita," Brock says.

"Yeah. I want to see a real Chikorita," Tomo says.

Just then, the Pokemon notices something.

"What's the matter, guys?" Mew asks.

Everyone soon looks ahead to notice a young girl with long purple pigtails, and wears a yellow jacket with black stripes up ahead.

The girl calls out, "We're gonna train hard, hit hard, and knock everyone out of the box! We're in the big leagues, and we're playing hard ball!"

"What's that girl doing?" Misty wonders.

"One! Two! Three strikes, they're out!" The girl shouts.

It soon reveals that the girl is talking to a Chikorita swinging its lead around at her feet, and this Chikorita is wearing a yellow headband with a black stripe and a lighting bolt on it.

The girl continues to shout, "The site is retired and Chikorita wins the game!"

"Chiko!" (Right!) Chikorita says.

The girl continues to shout, "Chikorita, the Pokémon champion pulls out another amazing ninth inning victory and the fans go wild!"

Soon, Mew and the others arrive to see the girl and her Chikorita.

"Hey! A Chikorita!" Misty says.

"Cool," Brick says.

"Let's check out what the Pokédex says," Mew says, and gets out her Pokedex.

Dexter says, "Chikorita, the Leaf Pokémon. A Grass Type. Chikorita releases a sweet, relaxing fragrance from the leaf on its head."

"That little headband makes Chikorita look really sporty, doesn't it?" Misty replies.

"Yeah. And it's very cute," Jen says.

"I betcha that girl's just starting out as a Pokémon trainer and she got her Chikorita in New Bark Town from Professor Elm," Brock suspects.

"Let's see what kind of attacks it uses," Mew says.

Soon, a Ratatta comes out of the bushes in front of Chikorita.

The girl calls out, "Taking the field for the visitors is Ratatta! And on the mound for the home team is the vegetation sensation, the grass type that'll mow the competition down, the one, the only, Chikorita! It's game time!"

Chikorita turns to its trainer and nods.

Then the girl shouts, "Play ball! Tackle attack, now!"

Chikorita charges, but Ratatta moves out of the way.

Then the girl says, "And the first one's slow and in the dirt, but Chikorita's just warming up. The next one's coming straight down the plate! Go!"

Chikorita charges again, and ends with a direct hit this time, knocking Ratatta out cold.

"Perfect strike! Chikorita's smoking Tackle attack knocked Ratatta right out of the box! This game is over!" The girl shouts, and gets out her Pokeball.
