From: Joe Jeckel <westpark@mediaone.net> Subject: [PW!] Showdown with Jessie & James (part one) Date: Friday, June 11, 1999 12:58 PM P:OTPW - Rain found and captured 2 poachers in the Safari Zone and took them out. As she began to leave, she sensed that one of the guards feared her. The guard was reveled to be one of the poachers. Currently, Rain is on Route 18 battling Jessie and James. They stopped her because they knew she was going to help with a Pokemon Emergency in Celadon City. ==== Route 18. Rain stands on one side with 2 of her 5 Butterfree while Jessie and James stand on the other ready to battle with intent to stop Rain. "Go, Butterfree!" says Rain. One of her Butterfree zip forward while the other flutters down onto Rain's left shoulder. "I'll go first," begins James, "Go... WEEZING!" says James, throwing a Pokeball forward. Weezing appears and Butterfree and Weezing begin to circle around, awaiting their master's commands. After much tension, waiting and glaring, Rain calls her first move. "Confusion!" "Weezing, counter with Smoke Screen!" Butterfree zips behind, above, below, left, right and everywhere in between to confuse Weezing. Weezing releases a smoke screen all around him and it engulfs Butterfree. Weezing though, is confused and it hurts itself because of it! "Weezing, Sludge!" "Butterfree, Whirlwind!" Weezing begins to spit out sludge at various objects. Trees, the rock Jessie is sitting on and James! Weezing is still confused from the previous attack! Butterfree takes advantage and uses Whirlwind and blows Weezing into a tree. This seems to snap Weezing out of his confused state and he launches one last load of sludge at Butterfree. Butterfree gets hit and falls straight down. "Looks like I win!" says James triumphantly. Right after that Rain calls for Butterfree to attack! "Butterfree, Psybeam!" says Rain. Through the sludge, Butterfree releases a powerful Psybeam, defeating Weezing! James calls Weezing back and Rain calls Butterfree back. Rain applies a Full Heal and a Super Potion to Butterfree's Pokeball. "You won't win next time!" says James, backing away. TBC
