The Illumise and Volbeat swarm,

The Two Dragons and

The Legendary Temple

Today the gang was walking through a forest. May was enjoying the walk through the forest; the forest had tall trees and hundreds of flowers. Max was keeping an eye out for pokemon like always and Brock was reading the guide. "There's something interesting about this forest" said Brock. "Really, what is it?" asked Ash. "Well apparently some bug pokemon called Volbeat and Illumise live in this forest," said Brock "and at night people can see them dancing, while showing off their lights". May thought that sounded interesting.

Ash looked at Volbeat and Illumise on the pokedex: Volbeat, the firefly pokemon. It lives around clean ponds. At night, its rear lights up. It converses with others by flashing its light. Illumise, the firefly pokemon. With its sweet aroma, it guides Volbeat to draw signs with light in the night sky.

"Volbeat are male and Illumise are female" said Max. May asked if they could stay and see the Volbeat and Illumise dance tonight. "Yeah, can we please?" asked Max "I'd like to see them dance too". Ash, Tomo and Brock thought the Illumise and Volbeat sounded interesting too and they agreed to stay.

The gang wasn't the only ones who were interested in the Volbeat and Illumise; Jessie, James and Meowth were also in the forest and had their eyes on Volbeat and Illumise. "Do excuse me, but these Illumise and Volbeat look a bit crumby to me" said Meowth, who was looking at some pictures of Volbeat and Illumise. "They do to me too," said James "but remember Team Rocket wishes to control ever part of the pokemon world". "Yes and the boss always tell us that when you talk of conquering the whole world, every small and crumby thing counts" said Jessie. "You're right" said Meowth.

James took was looking at three of his pokeballs and grinned. "What's got you all smiling about?" asked Meowth. "My capture of my three new pokemon Shroomish, Nuzleaf and Roselia," said James "I'm always happy when I capture new pokemon". "I know what you mean," said Jessie "I'm happy of my capture of Wingull". Jessie and James captured Wingull, Shroomish, Nuzleaf and Roselia some time ago. "I'm glad you two got new pokemon," said Meowth "but we need to get ready to grab the Volbeat and Illumise tonight". So Jessie and James stopped looking at their pokeballs and got ready for tonight.

Hours later it was starting to get dark and the gang was waiting for the Volbeat and Illumise to start their dance. "I can't wait to see Volbeat and Illumise dancing" said May. "It's sure to be a wonderful sight" said Brock. The gang waited and waited, but there was no sign of any of the Illumise or Volbeat showing. "That's strange," said Max "Volbeat and Illumise should have shown up by now". "Do you think something's wrong?" asked May. "If something is wrong, then we better check it out just in case" said Ash. The others agreed and they went in search for the missing Volbeat and Illumise.

What had happened was Jessie, James and Meowth had captured Volbeat and Illumise in a net. There were twelve of them all together; six Volbeat and six Illumise. "That was a pretty good capture" said Meowth. "That was rather easy really" said James. "Yeah, but we've got them with no trouble at all," said Jessie "now it's time to make our get away with this Volbeat and Illumise". "Oh no it isn't!" shouted a voice.

The voice belonged to Ash. "Why am I not surprised that you three are trying to nick these Volbeat and Illumise?" said May. "Oh great it's the twerps" said Jessie. She sent out Seviper to battle and James sent out Cacnea to battle. Ash ordered Pikachu to use thunderbolt and Tomo ordered Growlithe to use flamethrower. Seviper got defeated from the thunderbolt and Cacnea got defeated by the flamethrower. To finish it off Ash ordered Pikachu to send Team Rocket off with volt tackle, and he did.
