Episode 7 - "The Water Flowers of Cerulean City"

The gang are heading down the path to Cerulean City. Ash is getting

excited to get

another badge as Misty starts getting uneasy that they are nearing

Cerulean City. She said

that there are lots of scary ghost Pokémons there, and suggests that

they go to Vermilion

City instead. But, still, Ash and Brock go down the path into Cerulean

City. Meanwhile, in a

Cerulean store, Team Rocket sneaks in and steals a vacuum and a giant

hose. Ash and Brock

wander around and discover that they lose Misty. Soon, they across a

crime scene. A person

says there are burglars, and a policewoman who looks a lot like the one

from Viridian City,

says she is the twin sister-in-law of the policewomen in the previous

episodes. The

policewoman starts getting suspicious, but Ash proves her wrong with his

Pokédex. The

policewoman tells Ash and Brock about the theft, but they don't know who

did it yet. They

sit down on a bench, and Ash wants some info on the Cerulean City Gym,

but Brock won't tell

him anything. After, Brock says he needs to do some "stuff" and leaves

Ash by himself.

Finally, Ash finds the gym, and enters it, ready to fight. He's really

surprised and finds a

group of sisters performing on a long pool, doing dives and synchronized

swimming. Ash

leaves the main room, and he sees that the gym is like built like an

aquarium. He soon runs into

the three, beautiful sisters, and he discovers they are called the

"Sensational Sisters," and

he challenges them, but they are all worn out by fighting other people.

They didn't feel like

fighting so one of the sisters offers to just give Ash a cascade badge

(badge that you get

after winning a battle) and skip the hassle of battling. Ash says he

rather earn it, then

suddenly, Misty enters, and challenges Ash to a battle. Misty admits

that she is a sensational

sister also, but her older sister says she is a runt. Her sisters start

insulting her and say Ash

is her boyfriend. Misty denies it and they start to battle. Ash calls on

Pikachu, but Pikachu

doesn't want to fight a Misty, his friend. So Ash calls upon Butterfree

instead.. Misty calls

upon her Staryu. Butterfree uses a tackle, but Staryu uses a counter

attack and blocks it.

The battle goes on for a while, as Butterfree definitely has an

advantage. Staryu washes it

off, but Butterfree uses its sleeping powder, and Misty's Staryu uses

some more tackles.

Now Ash calls Pidgeotto, so Misty calls Starmie. They go at it for a

while, and Pidgeotto

blasts Misty into the wall.

Without a warning, there's a rumbling noise, and Team Rocket appears

with this machine

with a large hose to suck up all the Pokémon from the pool. They were

actually the ones who

stole the stuff from the store earlier. Team Rocket suck up Seel, but

Pikachu uses a

thunderbolt and electrocute Team Rocket, but Pikachu is also being

sucked up too. Ash climbs

up on the giant hose and turns the switch. Pikachu gets out safe and

sound. Team Rocket

blasts off again. After that, Ash gets the badge for his heroic deed

while Misty argues that

she should of had it instead. Brock catches up with them while Misty and

Ash begin to fight

again. They go on their path to get more badges. *What lies ahead on

their path, they'll soon

find out*

Episode 8 - "The Path to the Pokémon League"

Proud Ash is on the path to Vermilion City, with two Gym badges, he is

determined to beat

the trainer at the next gym. Along the way, Ash uses his Pokémon,

Pidgeotto, to defeat a

trainer, and he compliments him about his skills. After Ash gets his

tenth victory, the trainer

tells Ash to challenge A.J.. Ash finds the gym, A.J.'s Gym, which is

unofficial by the Pokémon

League. Ash meets up with A.J., and Ash finds out that he has 98 wins so

far. Confidently,

Ash challenges A.J.. to a battle. A.J. takes out his whip, and Ash shows

off his badges. A.J.

calls the badges are from loser gyms which makes Misty and Brock angry

and tells Ash to

pulverize this guy. A.J. calls upon Sandshrew (an armadillo-looking

Pokémon), as Ash takes

out Pidgeotto. Pidgeotto is suppose to have an advantage over Sandshrew

(a ground-type

Pokémon), but the Sandshrew has had some good training and knocks

Pidgeotto from the air.

Ash calls Pidgeotto after being defeated, and takes out Butterfree.

After using another

attack from Sandshrew, Butterfree is knocked down too. Ash loses the

match when Pikachu

didn't want to fight. Team Rocket is close by, and they think the

Sandshrew is tempting.

James hits Meowth down, and Meowth falls down somewhere. But Ash, in the

ring, cries and

asks for a rematch, but A.J. doesn't want one. Then, Ash suspects foul

play. The group finds

out how A.J. trains his Pokémons, but it looks like he's torturing the

Pokémons. Sandshrew

dives in the water, but Ash pushes A.J. into the water. A.J. tells his

story to the gang that

Sandshrew was the first Pokémon he ever caught, and they promised to be

the best there

ever was. Team Rocket lurks nearby, in the tent. The bell rings in the

gym tent, and A.J.

gives the Pokémons a short break. Team Rocket disguise themselves and

mistake Sandshrew

Pikachu and kidnap him! A.J. is devastated when he discovers Sandshrew

is missing. A.J. calls

for him, but there was not response. Ash suggested that Sandshrew might

of ran away due

to A.J.'s harsh training methods. Elsewhere, Sandshrew jumps out of the

bag and Meowth is

knocked out. Sandshrew manages to escape underground with Meowth's mouth

latched on its

tail. Soon Sandshrew and Meowth are found in the tent. Ash, Misty, and

Brock discover that

A.J. really does care about his Pokémon after an emotional moment, as

Pikachu points out

Meowth is on the floor. Team Rocket suddenly appear out of nowhere. .

Jesse and James

come to Meowth's and insult A.J.'s Pokémon and the gym. A.J. challenges

them for his 100th

win and, as usual, Jesse chooses Ekans while James calls out Koffing.

Bringing the match to a

close, Sandshrew leaps into the air, smashing into the ground hard

enough to split it in half.

The monsters freak out and run away, as A.J gets his 100th win. A.J

decides leaves on his

own, in search for some badges. In the end, Ash decides A.J. isn't as

bad as he thought, and

promises he'll beat him next time as the world' greatest Pokémon

trainer.

Episode 9 - "The School of Hard Knocks"

Once again, Ash, Misty, and Brock are heading down the path and on their

way to Vermilion

city. At the beginning, Ash and Misty are in a fog-shrouded place,

fighting over the bike,

while Brock tries to settle them down. Then he says the group needs some

food, so he sets

up the table. Brock says Ash and Misty are too young for the coffee, so

he offers some

prune juice instead. Misty wants tea, and Brock takes out his official

"Pokémon Tea Set."

Then Brock takes out his "sparkling water" and offers Ash and Misty some

French snacks,

(they were crêpes actually) but he can't make any if he doesn't have any

firewood. Misty

doesn't want to go and stays with Brock, so Ash is the one left to get

some. Pikachu finds a

fire in the distance. Ash actually finds a group of kids in suits

interrogating some other kid

on a treadmill. It seem like they were bullying the kid so Ash bursts

into the group, and tells

them to stop bullying him. The group of kids finally leave and Ash

learns that they are from

Pokémon Tech, a school for Pokémon trainers who want to join the Pokémon

League without

travelling around the fighting for badges . While Brock reads the

brochure Misty had about

it, Pikachu is having some fun and working out (it was cute). The group

finds the school, and

Joe, the kid who was getting bullied, tells them that he was just

pretending that he didn't

know the answers to the questions, so he won't to get any harder

questions. Joe tells them

that a beginner is as good as a person with 2 badges, a intermediate

student is as good as

someone with 4 badges. And an advance student is as good as someone with

eight badges.

Joe also mentioned that many students don't graduate but are too

embarrassed to leave

without a diploma. Ash says he wants to meet the person in charge of the

student-helping

course, and Joe shows them a picture of a girl, who Ash and Brock

immediately like. Misty

gets jealous right away, and decides to look for the girl. Meanwhile,

Team Rocket is getting

flashbacks from when they were in Pokémon Tech, and remember how they

did in that school.

Anyway, the group head towards the place where the girl usually

practices. Joe tells them

that he's better than the rest. Misty and Joe want to battle after Joe

insults her gym. Misty

calls upon Starmie while Joe calls upon his Weepingbell. Starmie uses

some water attacks

which blasts Weepingbell down. Joe wonders why he lost, and Gazelle, the

girl, tells them

that Misty's Pokémon is much more stronger than his. Misty and Gazelle

have a cat fight and

decide to battle. Graveler (a rock Pokémon) and Starmie go at it. Rock

Pokémon are weak

against water ones, but Gazelle beats Misty anyway. Ash butts in and

says some stuff to

Gazelle. After a heated chit chat, Ash and Gazelle decide to battle. Ash

calls upon Pikachu

and Gazelle calls on her Cubone (a lizard wearing a cow's skull and

wielding a bone). Pikachu

uses shock attack, and Cubone counters. Cubone uses his bone to throw at

Pikachu, so Pikachu

decides makes some faces to stare Cubone down. After approaching each

other, Cubone

clubs him on the head with his bone. Ash tells Pikachu to give it his

best shot, and when Cubone

throws the bone again, Pikachu jumps over it, and manages to beat

Cubone. Gazelle calls back

Cubone when he starts to cry. Out of nowhere, Team Rocket, who had the

worse grades

ever, show up. Soon gazelle calls up her group of classmates to fight

against Team Rocket,

and after being pelted by Pokéballs, they blast off again. After,

Gazelle learns an important

lesson. Joe decides to go home and start from scratch, just like Ash.

Episode 10 - "Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village"

Ash, Misty, and Brock are traveling in the forest, lost. Misty and Ash

start fighting again

and Brock tries to break the fight up. While resting near a pond, Ash

spots an Oddish (a blue

radish with feet) taking a drink. Misty wants to catch it. She starts

with her Staryu and the

battle begins. Just before she was about to throw the Pokéball at the

weakened Oddish,

another Pokémon called Bulbasaur, intercepts it and knocks away Staryu.

Ash wants to catch

the Bulbasaur and calls upon Butterfree to do it. Butterfree tries to

wear Bulbasaur down

with a a sleep attack but Bulbasaur just blows it back at Butterfree and

makes Butterfree

sleepy instead. In all the confusion, Bulbasaur and Oddish run away to

the bushes.

Eventually, Ash forgets about it and the gang tries to cross a

suspension bridge that isn't on

their map. Suddenly, the ropes break. They cling on for a while until

Brock couldn't hold it

any longer and falls into the river below. Ash and Misty are able to

climb back up. Ash,

Misty and Pikachu start running to look for Brock. Suddenly, Misty falls

into a big hole but

manages to get out. She manages to get out the group starts running to

look for Brock again.

This time, they get caught in a net. Unable to move Ash, Misty and

Pikachu are left hanging up

on a tree in a net. Bulbasaur comes along but just leaves them hanging

there. Suddenly,

Brock appears and cut them down. Brock tells them that a beautiful girl,

Melanie, saved him

from being washed away in the river. Soon Brock brings them to a small

house, which is

suppose to be like a Pokémon Centre. When the arrive there and meet

Melanie, Misty starts

teasing Brock because he had a crush on her. Later on, Misty sees Oddish

there and

apologizes that she tried to catch him earlier. The little house is

protected by Bulbasaur.

Bulbasaur wants to fight because he doesn't like Pokémon trainers, and

wants Ash, Misty,

and Brock to leave. Melanie tries to tell him that they mean no harm.

Then, as usual, Team

Rocket appear to ruin things up. They ride on top of a floating on a

stadium roof that is

suspended by balloons. The huge roof lands and a giant vacuum tube pops

out and begins to

suck everything up, including the Pokémons. Melanie urges everyone to go

into the house for

safety. Bulbasaur bursts out the front door and attacks the vacuum to

save them. Soon,

Team Rocket wants to suck all the monsters in inside the house. When

Team Rocket tries

various attempts, Ash comes out and foils their plans. Bulbasaur uses

his vine attack to knock

away the huge hose. Ash calls upon his Pidgeotto. Pidgeotto uses his

gust attack and blows

away Team Rocket but caused a huge tornado after the gust met the vacuum

suction. Team

Rocket blasts off again at the speed of light. Finally, it's over.

Melanie asks Ash to take

Bulbasaur along. Ash agrees, but Bulbasaur wants a battle first so Ash

calls Pikachu to fight.

After a good match, Pikachu manages to weaken Bulbasaur down with one

his electric bolts.

Then, Ash throws a Pokéball at Bulbasaur and catches it. Now it's time

to bid farewell to

Melanie. Brock offers to stay and help out, but she doesn't want to keep

him away from his

adventures. The gang walk away, leaving the little house behind. Once

again, they set off for

their quest.

Episode 11 - "Charmander, the Stray Pokémon"

Once again, Ash, Misty and Brock are lost. The only Pokémon that's

available in the area

are Spearows. Ash points out that Route 24 would lead them straight to

Vermilion City. The

gang is about to leave on their way when they come across a HUGE

Pokémon. It's actually a

large rock with a Charmander on it (a lizard-looking Pokémon with a

flame on its tail). The

Charmander seems weak because the flame on its tail is almost out.

Legend says that when

the Charmander's flame goes out, it'll die. Brock suggests that it seems

injured so Ash is

about to catch it with his Pokéball when Charmander flicks the Pokéball

away. With Pikachu's

help, the gang finds out that Charmander is actually waiting for his

trainer to come back.

Since they can't get Charmander to go with them, Brock suggests to leave

Charmander there

and let him wait for his trainer.

Ash, Misty, Brock and Pikachu leave and head towards the Pokémon Centre.

The weather is

horrible with lots of rain and lightning. In the Centre, the gang warm

up with a bowl of soup

as Brock is getting more worried about Charmander. Then, in the Centre,

the gang hear some

people talking. Ash and Brock hear a boy, Damien, bragging about his

collection of Pokémons.

They hear him talk about abandoning his Charmander on the rock. After

hearing this, Ash,

Misty and Brock get very angry. Knowing that Charmander's flame might go

out, Brock

threatens Damien to get his Charmander back, but Damien doesn't really

care what might

happen to his Charmander. After a heated fight between Ash and Damien,

they decide to

battle but Nurse Joy breaks it up. After a while, Ash, Misty and Brock

decide to go out in

the rain and rescue Charmander from the storm. When they reach the rock

where

Charmander was, they see a flock of Spearows attacking it. Pikachu

rescues Charmander

from the Spearows by sending a electric bolt at them, as well as Ash's

gang. Quickly, they

take Charmander back to the Centre as his flame is almost out. At the

Centre, Nurse Joy

takes Charmander and puts him in the Emergency Room.

The next morning, the find out that Charmander is missing. In panic,

Ash, Misty and Brock

head back to the huge rock to find Charmander waiting for Damien again.

Nurse Joy had said

that Charmander would stay on the rock until he's convinced that Damien

won't come back.

The group finally accepts that Charmander won't go with them, so they go

on Route 24 to

Vermilion City. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is making another huge trap.

Using their

super-duper high-speed whatchamacallit, they drill a huge hole and cover

it up. The trap is

done and Team Rocket hide behind the trees. Pikachu steps right over the

disguised pit but

doesn't fall in at all. When Ash, Brock and Misty step on it, they fall

into the pit, leaving

Pikachu at the surface. Team Rocket, thanks to their rubber super-duper

anti-Pikachu suits,

capture Pikachu with a red balloon-shooting super-duper anti-Pikachu

bazooka. They manage

to capture Pikachu in a huge balloon. Ash hears Pikachu calling him but

Ash couldn't get up

from the pit. Suddenly, Charmander comes along and warns Team Rocket to

let go of

Pikachu. Charmander gets angry and lets out a huge ball of fire at them.

Quickly, Team

Rocket drops Pikachu and runs away. Not long after, Damien shows up and

says that he wants

Charmander back. Charmander refuses to go with him. Then, Damien gets

torched and

electrocuted by Charmander and Pikachu. Brock suggests that Ash should

take Charmander

so Ash calls him into the Pokéball. Now, Charmander is happy with his

new friends.

Episode 12 - "Here comes the Squirtle Squad"

Ash is really excited about his new Pokémon, Charmander. As the gang

were walking

towards Vermilion City, they stumble into another pit. Looking up, they

see a group of

Squirtles (blue turtles with red shells), who had made the pit as a

joke. Angry at the

Squirtles, Ash tells Pikachu to electrocute them and Pikachu manages to

send a electrical bolt

on one of them. Pikachu and the leader of the Squirtle squad have a

short conversation (the

leader is the one with the huge, pointy sunglasses). Suddenly, Officer

Jenny (this is a

different Jenny from the other episodes...she's one of the identical

cousins named Jenny)

comes by with her police siren, which scares away the Squirtles. The

officers tells Ash,

Misty and Brock about the Squirtle Squad. The Squirtles are part of a

Pokémon gang and

they play practical jokes on the townspeople. The Squirtle Squad was

formed after their

trainers abandoned them. Meanwhile, Team Rocket are hungry and decide to

have a picnic,

but, lurking nearby were the hungry Squirtles. The Squirtles demand for

their food and

Team Rocket fall into a hole as they were trying to call for their

Pokémons. Happily, the

Squirtles eat Team Rocket's food as they were tied up a tree. Jesse had

tried to

compromise with the Squirtles but the Squirtles didn't trust humans.

Meowth manages to

convince the Squirtles to let him go by telling them that Jesse and

James were his pets.

Later on, Misty is fishing when she thought she caught something. It was

actually a Squirtle.

Pikachu uses his electric surge to shock the Squirtle but shocks Ash,

Misty and Brock

instead. Suddenly, the Squirtle flings Pikachu into the river. As

Pikachu was trying to get

back to shore, a Goldeen (a horned fish) had used its needle attack and

weakened Pikachu.

Without warning, some Squirtles threw some ropes at Pikachu and roped

him up. Then, they

rope up Ash, Misty and Brock also.

Inside the cave, the group finds out that Me
