(Meanwhile, in one of the buildings.)
(it turns out that the man who is the Viridian Gym Leader is also Team Rocket's leader.)
(Jessie, James, and Meowth are actually getting scolded for not being able to catch any Pokemon.)
(Just then, he receives a call and picks up.)
Giovanni: "What is it?"
(Whatever it is, makes the boss shocked.)
Giovanni: "WHAT?! WHEN?"
(He hangs up the phone and says.)
Giovanni: "There's been an accident, I have to go, I'm leaving the three of you in charge of the gym."
Jessie: "The three of us?"
(Jessie asks.)
(James adds.)
James: "In charge?"
Meowth: "Of the gym?"
(Meowth adds.)
(The Team Rocket Boss then tosses three Pokeballs to them.)
Giovanni: "Use these to protect the gym if necessary."
(Giovanni then sits down on his chair which backs up into a revolving door in the wall.)
(Jessie, James, and Meowth hold the three Pokeballs in their hands.)
Jessie: "That means that.."
(Jessie says.)
(Then James says.)
James: "We just became..."
Meowth: "Gym leaders!"
(Meowth says.)
(Then they all cheer in pride.)
Team rocket: "Yay!"
(Meanwhile, in a secret room.)
(the boss walks down the hall with his guards that have all sorts of Pokemon in cages.)
(including the Pokemon he has used in the gym.)
(The boss approaches the mysterious armored Pokemon and says.)
Giovanni: "We have an emergency assignment for you."
(He pulls the switch and the cable on the Pokemon's armor retracts.)
(as the mysterious Pokemon's eyes begin to glow blue once more.)
(Sometime later after having lunch.)
(Mew and her friends decide to return to the Viridian City so that Mew can compete for her gym battle to earn her eighth badge.)
Brock: "That was a good lunch,"
(Brock says.)
Misty: "Yeah. And Togepi enjoyed it too,"
(Misty says.)
Togepi: "Togepriiiii!" (Lunch is yummy!)
(Togepi happily says.)
Misty: "So Mew, you ready to battle your eight gym?"
(Misty asks.)
Mew: "You know it. I can't wait to earn my eight badge and compete in the Pokemon League,"
(Mew says.)
(Soon, the group is in front of the gym.)
(Mew calls out.)
Mew: "Excuse me! I'm Mew from Pallet Town and I've come to compete in your gym to earn a badge!"
(So far, no one seems to answer.)
Mew: "Hello! I want to have a gym battle with you! Are you done with your previous battle?! Hello?!"
(Mew calls out.)
Brock: "That's weird. Gary should have been done with his battle by now,"
(Brock says.)
Mew: "You're right. Something doesn't feel right about this,"
(Mew says.)
Tomo: "What do we do?"
(Tomo asks.)
Mew: "We go in and find out what's going on,"
(Mew says.)
(With that, Misty and Mew grab one side of the door.)
(while Brock and Tomo grab the other side.)
(They both pull at the door until they're able to open it.)
(The group soon hurry inside and to their shock, they see Gary Oak.)
(knocked out, Nidoking and Arcanine are knocked out close to him.)
Mew: "Gary!"
(Mew worriedly says.)
Brock: "And his Pokemon!"
(Brock says.)
(Mew then hurries to Gary and holds him in her arms.)
Mew: "Hey, Gary! Gary, wake up! Gary!"
(Mew calls out.)
(Soon, Gary regains consciousness and says.)
Gary: "It's here."
Mew: "What happened? What's here?"
(Mew asks.)
(Gary answers, still a feel out of it.)
Gary: "A Pokemon that we've never seen, did this."
(Mew gaps in shock.)
Gary: "There's something different about this one. This Pokemon's not just powerful, it's evil!"
(Gary explains.)
(Stunned Mew answers.)
Mew: "Evil? There can't be an evil Pokemon."
Tomo: "What kind of Pokemon you're talking about?"
(Tomo asks.)
Meloetta: "Melo," (What is it?)
(Meloetta asks.)
Gary: "It's kind of hard to tell what kind of Pokemon, but it's something I've never seen, and it's wearing some strange armor. From it's attack, the Pokemon seems to be a Psychic Type,"
(Gary says.)
(Mew is rather stunned to hear this Pokemon.)
(She becomes concerned as to how the Gym Leader could obtain that kind of Pokemon.)
(She then hears Gary say.)
Gary: "One thing's for sure, no one will ever beat that Pokemon."
(That makes Mew deeply concerned.)
(Suddenly, she begins to hear a familiar female laughter as the gym lights come on.)
(Mew demands.)
Mew: "Who's there?!"
(Just then, they hear a familiar motto.)
Jessie: Prepare for trouble!
James: And make it double!
(Then the platform comes up to reveal Jessie and James from Team Rocket.)
Jessie: To protect the world from devastation.
James: To unite all peoples within our nation.
Jessie: To denounce the evils of truth and love.
James: To extend our reach to the stars above.
Mew: "Oh no,"
(Mew says.)
Misty: "It's them…"
(Misty says.)
(Brock adds.)
Brock: "Again!
(Then Jessie and James stumble and fall down in disbelief.)
(Jessie yells.)
Jessie: "Why do you little twerps always interrupt us before we get to finish?!"
Misty: "We know what you're gonna say! It's never any different!"
(Misty calls out.)
Jessie: "Ah, but today is very different,"
(Jessie says.)
(Then James says.)
James: "Something's happened that's gonna make you very jealous!"
Meowth: "Let's celebrate!"
(Meowth says as he pops out of a confetti container from the rafters.)
(Then lands in front of his teammates.)
Meowth: "We just got a big promotion! Now we're gonna get the respect we deserve!"
James: "That's right, Meowth, cause the new leaders of this gym are…"
(James announces.)
(Then Jessie announces.)
Jessie: "The three of us!
(The group becomes shocked with disbelief.)
Mew: "You guys are gym leaders, now?!"
(Mew asks.)
Pikachu: "Pika?!" (They are?!)
(Pikachu replies shocked.)
Eevee: "Eevee?!" (Since when?!)
(Eevee adds.)
Jessie: "That's right. Just moments ago we were put in charge of this gym,"
(Jessie says.)
(And she has an earth badge.)
Jessie: "And the Earth badge."
Mew: "The Earth badge!"
(Mew says, surprised.)
Misty: "You mean this gym is controlled by Team Rocket?!"
(Misty asks, shocked.)
(Then Brock asks.)
Brock: "Why would they want a gym?"
Jessie: "Oh, you little dweeb, you must think you're so clever to piece together such complex plans of an organization like Team Rocket,"
(Jessie says.)
Mew: "Oh yeah, try us,"
(Mew says.)
James: "That's for us to know and for you to find out,"
(James says.)
(Then asks.)
James: "What are they?"
(Jessie thinks for a minute and says.)
Jessie: "Those plans are classified information."
(Then Meowth says.)
Meowth: "She didn't know about them, anyway!"
(And Jessie punches Meowth away.)
(Then James means.)
James: "But if you want that Earth badge, you'll have to defeat us."
Mew: "Then I'll be more than glad to battle you three,"
(Mew says.)
Jessie: "Well, step right into the ring we prepared just for you,"
(Jessie says.)
(Then a second stand appears behind Mew and the others.)
(Jessie laughs and says.)
Jessie: "Now, get into the trainer's box, little girl."
Misty: "Don't, Mew! It's a trick!"
(Misty worriedly advised.)
Brock: "They must have booby-trapped it, somehow!"
(Brock says.)
Mew: "I figured as much, but I can't just walk away. They'll cause more problems if we don't face them,"
(Mew says.)
(Suddenly, James says.)
James: "If you run away now, you won't get that Earth badge."
Mew: "I'm not running anywhere!"
(Mew calls out.)
