Today our friends are once again on their way to Ecruteak City. The journey is a long one, and so they've stopped by the banks of a sparkling river for rest and refreshment.

Marina was grabbing some food from her bag for her and Snubbull. As the Fairy Pokémon sat patiently, its ears perked up hearing something. She stands up and goes to find what caught her attention. Cyndaquil, who was drinking from the lake looked up and saw Snubbull leaving. The fire type pokes Riley to get his attention.

Riley: What's the matter, Cyndaquil?

Cyndaquil: Cynda. (Snubbull'a gone) Riley looked to see Snubbull nowhere to be found.

Marina: Found it! Marina said pulling out some rice balls.

Riley: Marina, where'd Snubbull go?

Marina: What are you talking about? Snubbull's right behind.....me? She looks back and finds Snubbull missing. Oh no!

Jimmy: What's wrong?!

Karen: Are you okay, Marina?

Marina: Snubbull's gone!

Riley & Jimmy: Huh?!

Meanwhile, our favorite bumbling idiots Jessie, James and Meowth are trudging despondently through another part of the forest.

Jessie: I have to have something to eat soon, James.

James: (sighs) When we get to the next little hamlet, let's have a great big ham omelet.

Meowth: (mutters) I hope dey're giving dem omelets away cause we ain't got any money to pay for 'em.

Snubbull pokes her head out of the bushes and spots Meowth's wagging tail.

Snubbull: Snubbull?

Jessie: I don't think I've ever been this hungry. I'd do anything for a bite.

Soon, Jessie and James hear a chomp, followed by Meowth screaming in pain, and they soon see that the Snubbull that spotted them had latched onto Meowth's tail.

Jessie: Look, James! It's our old friend, Snubbull!

James: You know, I often wondered how that little nibbler was doing, but it seems to be as playful as ever.

Meowth: Help me! Do something! Get it off of me!!!

James: Isn't that cute, Jessie? Snubbull's giving Meowth the love bite to show its affection.

Jessie: You should be happy to have a pretty little Pokemon who loves you, Meowth.

Meowth: I hate this stupid Snubbull!

The very sound of those words grabs Snubbull's attention as Meowth comes to a stop and shakes her off.

Meowth: Now get LOST!

Snubbull is soon flung into another part of the woods. Meanwhile...

Marina: I'm positive Snubbull hasn't gone far.

Cyndaquil: Cynda. (Look)

Everyone looks ahead and sees someone on his hands and knees carrying a backpack. They rush up to him.

Jimmy: Are you okay?

Riley: What happened, Mister?

???: I...collapsed.

Karen: How about some water?

???: Thank you, young lady.

Karen: Here you go. The man proceeds to drink up.
