From: Matarick <matarick@geocities.com> Subject: Re: [PW!][ISLAND] Sakura meets Giovanni: AKA The Flight to Pokémon Island Date: Tuesday, April 13, 1999 5:03 PM Last, we had Sakura going to the Rocket Game Corner for meeting Giovanni, so Sakura would reviece tickets for the trip to Pokémon Island. Ryu was in costume with a mask and some clothes (trench coat, shoes, pants and a hat), so that he won't get caught by the security in the Island. Also, Sakura's little brother, Umino went with her, because he had won the prize in a contest. <they enter the airport and goes into a private jet with a R on it> Umino: Well this is the plane. <they all enter the plane> Pilot: So these are the winners of the contest. Our next destination is Pokémon Island. You young man must be Umino. Umino: Why yes. Pilot: And this young lady in a stylish buttoned down cream shirt, and khakis, with bun with sticking hair must be Sakura. Sakura: Well nice to meet you. Pilot: And this strong man must be. Ryu: Ryu. Pilot: You will watch a video about the sponsors of the trip. <they enter to the video video room> Video: <a young man with green hair and wearing the black uniform while corny music was being played> Welcome to a Team Rocket jet. They are used many times in our organization. Our purpose of Team Rocket is to find Pokémon whose trainers are neglectant towwards thier training and raise the Pokémon to benifit society. Umino: Wow they sound like nice people. Sakura: Be quiet Umino, <in a low toned voice> they are not that nice. Video: Also, we, at TR believe in pure captialism, so that the Pokémon Industry is free from entanglement. Now, we have our founder talking. He is Giovanni. Giovanni in video: Hello, when I went to the main land, I had no future whatso ever. But when I first reached the port of Pallet, I saw the most intersting creatures. These creatures can create massive strengh, have mini societies, and most of all everyone is unique. Durring my stay at Pallet, I met this young man who was brillaint in the sciences and thes creatures. He had a temporary venture in Silph Co. , one of many associations of Team Rocket, and made this device. He can capture this creatures in this ball, and stick it in his pocket. He called these creatures Pocket Monsters. When he showed this evention and this new name, I made the name shorter and called them Pokémon. He and I had a long friendship, and we also founded the Pokémon Leauge (he was the main organizer while I was the guy who challenged fellow trainers). While popularity spreaded across the islands, we had these gyms and gym leaders who challenge the fellow trainers (I am the Varidian Gym leader). One year I thought that these events were to be televised/on the airwaves (on the radio), and the champions would chalenge the champion from the previous year, and so forth. Although I wasn't making a lot of money, I thought up of all of those ideas. So one day I thought up this idea, its purpose was to make the trainers mega-rich so that they won't pay bills. This idea that became the Team Rocket of today. We have many branches in these islands such as the Rocket Game Corner, and Silph Co. Also it is rumored we have a secret branch that is located in a far away land that has exotic Pokémon, such as the rumored Mew. We cannot confirm this information, but that would be nice if that is the case. I hope you are convinced that Team Rocket was made for you in particular. <End of tape> Pilot: We are almost there. So what you think about our organization. Sakura: Well I am busy with myself. Umino: I am not interested in Pokémon so Team Rocket is not for me. Ryu: I am training in the martial arts at the time so, I have no time for Team Rocket. Pilot: Well I hope you would make the right decision one day. We will give you the equipment and the maps of the Island. I hope you would all have a nice stay. Umino: Thank you. <the plane is landing on the island and the pilot gave the equipment> Sakura: Thanks for taking us up there. Pilot: No thank you, you all will help us out some way. <the plane has left> Sakura: I sense something not right about that Team Rocket. <while in the plane> Pilot: Boss, the video didn't convince the guests too much. Giovanni on the radio: I am having a bad day you know, I lost a talking Pikachu, and some other stuff. We will survaliance the people, and keep a close eye on them. Pilot: Yes, I will keep contact with them. <on the island> Sakura: Wow this is a beautifull place don't you think. I wonder if other people are in this island. Ryu: While we are here, I want to visit an old home of mine. Sakura: What do you mean. ………………………………………………………………………………… TBC Matarick Time to interact with the party. respond back, by typing matarick@geocities.com
