Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Clefairy And The Moon Stone

(Mew and her friends are hiking toward a mountain called Mount Moon.)

(There have been strange and astonishing tales told about this mysterious place.)

(Pikachu and Eevee are fast asleep.)

(Both Pokemon are sleeping in Mew's bag.)

Misty: "Mount Moon. Doesn't the name sound romantic?"

(Misty says.)

Brock: "People say that a huge meteor crashed into the mountain back in prehistoric times."

(Brock says.)

Mew: "A meteor?"

(Mew says, interested.)

(Then Misty asks.)

Misty: "Is it really true?"

Brocks: "The meteor is called the Moon Stone."

(Brocks says.)

Misty: "Now that's romantic."

(Misty says.)

Mew: "I remember Professor Oak told me that the Moon Stones are used to help some Pokemon evolve."

(Mew says.)

[Suddenly...]

(they hear a loud scream, waking the two Pokemon up.)

(Mew looks ahead.)

Mew: "Look! Over there!"

(The group rushes over to see The group rushes to help the one who is in distress.)

(Up ahead, a large flock of blue and purple color bats, known as Zubat's, are attacking a man with short brown hair, wearing a lab coat and glasses.)

(When Mew and her friends arrive, they see the man being attacked by Zubat's.)

Mew: "Those are Zubat's."

(Mew says.)

Misty: "They're attacking that guy!"

(Misty says.)

(Mew brings out her Pokedex, and Dexter says.)

Dexter: "Zubat, the bat Pokemon. A Poison and Flying Type! This flying Pokemon with supersonic powers. Zubat lives in caves and hates to fly outside in daylight."

Mew: "Something is wrong, unless they have a trainer, Wild Zubat's usually sleep in the day and hate sunlight."

(Mew says.)

Misty: "We'll have to worry about that later, that guy needs help."

(Misty says.)

Mew: "Right,"

(Mew says with a nod.)

(Then she calls out.)

Mew: "Pikachu, Use Thunder Shock!"

(Pikachu, who is standing on Mew's head, lights up his cheeks and electricity comes out.)

(The man in trouble turns his head to see Mew and Pikachu.)

(Pikachu jumps up and sends out a thunder shock to the bat Pokemon.)

(They are electrocuted and they fly back into the cave.)

(The man who is laying on the ground is still in pain from the attack.)

(Mew runs to the man holding Pikachu and Eevee and asks.)

Mew: "Are you okay?"

(Suddenly, the man stands up and hugs Mew.)

The Man: "Wow! You guys were the greatest!"

Mew: "Really! It was nothing!"

(Mew muffles, being squished.)

(Same with Pikachu and Eevee, being sandwiched between his trainer and the man.)

(The man says in excitement.)

The man: "I'm talking super fantastic! I mean, two thumbs up! Way up! The best rescue I've ever had!"

(Unable to stand it, Pikachu lets out a Thunderbolt, electricity and both in the process.)

(The man falls to the ground, but Mew isn't phased by it.)

(Eevee however, does feel the attack.)

(The man stands up again and says.)

The man: "They say that man's best friend is a Pokemon, and with those two, I believe it."

Mew: "Oh. That's nice,"

(Mew replies.)

(The man happily says.)

The man: "I'm so moved! Such friendship I thought I'd never see when the Zubat began attacking me. I thought I was done for, but who should arrive? Some heroes, thanks to whom, I'm alive!"

(Then screams at the top of his lunges.)

The man: "I'M ALIVE!"

(His yell echoes through the mountain.)

The man: "Thank you so much! Thank you!"

Misty: "He certainly doesn't look like the poetic type."

(Misty says.)

(The man walks over to them and says.)

The man: "Did I mention how grateful I am?"

Mew: "Yeah. Um, anyway, why were the Zubat attacking you, mister?"

(Mew asks.)

(The man gasps and says.)

Seymour: "Never call me mister! My name is Seymour. Seymour the Scientist. Knowledge. Research. I'm Seymour the Scientist!"

(The three humans and two Pokemon look at Seymour with confused expressions.)

(Mew then asks.)

Mew: "Um, so, why were the Zubat's attacking you?"

Seymour: "Follow me, I'll show you."

(Seymour says.)

(The group enters the cave and walks deep inside.)

(They notice that lights are on the ceiling and lighting up the whole cave.)

Seymour: "See? The cave is all lit up inside. Somebody has strung these lights through the whole cave. But the Pokemon in this cave need the dark. These lights are upsetting them and making them confused."

(Seymour says.)

Brock: "Which is probably why the Zubat left the cave and attacked you."

(Brock suspects.)

(Seymour turns his head and says.)

Seymour: "Look here These Paras are planting their mushrooms everywhere."

(The group turns their heads to see the orange crab Pokemon, Paras are putting their mushrooms on the ground.)

Seymour: "And the hot lights are drying up these Sandshrew."

(Seymour adds.)

(And they see the Sandshrew laying down and looking weak.)

Mew: "Poor Sandshrew."

(Mew says worried.)

(Mew hurries to the Sandshrew and kneels down to it.)

(Mew then brings a water bottle with a cup, an Oran Berry, and some Pokemon food.)

(Mew pours the water in the cup and presents it to Sandshrew.)

Mew: "Here, it will make you feel better."

(Mew says.)

(The Sandshrew drinks the water and feels a little better and is able to stand up.)

Mew: "Here's an Oran Berry and some Pokemon food for you."

(Mew says.)

(The Sandshrew eats the Oran Berry and the Pokemon food, and feels good as new.)

Sandshrew: "Sandshrew," (Thank you.)

Mew: "You're welcome."

(Mew happily says.)

Seymour: "Wow! Your friend has a way with Pokemon, and I never seen anyone who is this caring."

(Seymour says.)

Misty: "That's Mew alright, helping Pokemon in need."

(Misty says.)

(Then Seymour grows concern.)

Seymour: "Still, that's why I'm here. On patrol to protect the mountain from the troublemakers' attacks against these caves."

Misty: "Troublemakers? Why attack a cave?"

(Misty asks.)

(Seymour turns to the group.)

Seymour: "I'm afraid it's because of the Moon Stone."

Mew: "The Moon Stone?"

(Mew asks.)

Seymour: "Exactly,"

(Seymour says.)

(Then explains.)

Seymour: "The Moon Stone is an awesome boulder, a million years old or even older. Deep in these caves the meteor hides, though no explorer has found the place of the legendary rock from space. We've studied it's fragments for many an hour, and discovered it increases a Pokemon's power. And that is why the attackers are here. They've come to take the Moon Stone, or so I fear."

Mew: "So the troublemakers are after it."

(Mew asks.)

(Seymour nods his head.)

Seymour: "Yes. Ever since I was a little boy, I've believed that Pokemon came to Earth from outer space."

Everyone: "From outer space?"

(Everyone asks, surprised.)

Seymour: "Yes. And where, you ask, is the spacecraft that brought them here? In this cave. It's the Moon Stone."

(Seymour says.)

Misty: "It sure is an original theory."

(Misty says.)

Seymour: "But don't you see? It means that the Moon Stone belongs to the Pokemon. We humans must not take it from them!"

(Seymour says.)

(He then grabs Mew's hands and asks.)

Seymour: "You agree with me, don't you?"

(Mew nods her head in reply.)

[Suddenly...]

(A light Pink Pokemon hops past the group and is holding a grayish blue stone with yellow and purple markings on it.)

(It keeps calling out.)

Clefairy: "Clefairy Clefairy Clefairy Clefairy!" (Worship the Moon Stone! Gather the Moon Stone!)

Brock: "That looks like a Clefairy!"

(Brock says.)

Mew: "It's so cute!"

(Mew happily says.)

(Mew brings out Dexter and it says.)

Dexter: "Clefairy, the Fairy Pokemon. A Fairy Type. This impish Pokemon is friendly, peaceful, and shy. It is believed to live inside Mount Moon, although very few have ever been seen by humans."

Mew: "Hmm, I wonder where it's going,"

(Mew wonders.)

Misty: "Wherever it's going, it has one of the Moon Stones."

(Misty says.)

(Suddenly they hear Clefairy screams.)

Clefairy: "Clefairy!" (Help me!)

(The group turns their heads to the tunnel Clefairy leaves to.)

Misty: "That sounds like Clefairy."

(Misty says.)

(Mew runs ahead.)

Mew: "It's in trouble!"

(Down the tunnel of the cave, Clefairy is back against the wall holding the Moon Stone, shaking in fear.)

[Just then...]

(a shadow overshadows it, revealing it to be Meowth from Team Rocket.)

Meowth: "Don't be scared of Meowth."

(Meowth says)

(Just then, everyone arrives on the scene.)

Mew: "It's Meowth!"

(Mew says, shocked.)

(Meowth turns to see the group.)

Meowth: "Meowth! What are you doing here?"

Mew: "Looking for troublemakers, like you!"

(Mew sternly says.)

(Pikachu and Eevee head to Clefairy.)

(Pikachu says.)

Pikachu: "Pika!" (There's no need to worry.)

Clefairy: "Clefairy? (Really?)

(Clefairy asks.)

Eevee: "Eev. Eev Eevee Eevee," (Yes. We're here to help you.)

(Eevee says.)

(Clefairy smiles and nods its head.)

Clefairy: "Clefairy," (Okay.)

(Pikachu, Eevee and Clefairy hurry to Mew.)

(Clefairy stands behind Mew.)

(Mew kneels down to Clefairy.)

Mew: "Don't worry, we'll protect you."

Clefairy: "Clefairy," (Thank you,)

(Clefairy says.)

(Mew then stands and turns to Meowth.)

Mew: "So, Team Rocket is causing all the trouble around here. What a surprise."

Misty: "We gotta stop them before they cause anymore trouble."

(Misty says.)
