John had just stepped in fresh dung... Eevee, he thinks. "Well, we're hear, now what?"asked Pipian. "Well, we need to enter the Cave, and we also need Cascade Badges." Tiki said. "But the question is, how do we enter the cave? None of us is the Pokémon Master." "How soon they forget! As a Laramie, I have friends in high places." John walked to the nearest phone, plunked in a coin, and dialed a number. "Indigo Plateau, can I help you?" asked Nurse Joy." "Yes, can you get Ash Ketchum on the phone? I'd like to talk to him." "I'm sorry, but Mr. Ketchum is not here." "Huh? What do you mean?" "Well, since their embarrassing defeat to Natasha and Tenchi, the Elite Four have trashed all competitors. Noone's gotten close to Ash, so he went to Cerulean to visit Misty." "Oh, well, thank you anyways." John hung up, then walked back to the group. "Perfect! Ash is here, and we can get our badges." "What do you want with him anyways?" asked Jamie. "A few months back I saved his butt from a herd of rampaging Tauros. He owes me a favor. With any luck, he'll give us entry to the cave." The group went to the gym. Entering, John called out, "Hello? Misty, Ash, it's John Laramie." A little egg appeared and ran over to John, then started using his tail as a maypole ribbon. "Togi togi briiii!" "Togepi, come back here... John? Is that you? Ash, John Laramie's here!" The Gym Leader and Pokémon Master appeared. "John! How are you?" Ash shouted. "I'm okay, but I'd like to take you up on that favor you owe me, Ash" Ash sweatdropped. "Dohh, I was hoping you'd forgot about that." "Not on your life. If it weren't for me, you would've been squashed flatter then a crepe suzette. Anyways, do you think you can give us entry to the Unknown Dungeon? We need to check out Mewtwo's old hiding place." "Well, okay. But Pikachu and I have to go with you. League rules, you know." It was the group's turn to sweatdrop. Just what they needed, a dunce and a hyperactive rodent. "Fine. Misty, I also challenge you for a Cascade Badge!" "No problem, 3 on 3. Let's battle!" "Er, before we do, could you grab Togepi before I have Flash serve him sunny-side up?" The little Pokémon was still having fun playing Raichu Tail Maypole. Misty grabbed him and gave him to Ash. "Misty calls, Staryu!" "Wraps, let's do it! Absorb!" Wraps let loose an orb. It hit Staryu, sucking energy. "Wraps, Bind!" "Ackk, Staryu, Tackle!" Staryu smacked Wraps, sending the Tangela crashing into a wall. "Ohhh, Wraps, return! Go, Spark! Use Thundershock!" "Jolteon!" Spark released a lightning bolt. It hit Staryu, fainting it. "Staryu, return! Misty calls... Psyduck, not you! Ohh, there's that headache you always give me!" John knew better then to attack Psyduck head (no pun intended) on, so he yelled, "Spark, knock Psyduck into the water, then Thundershock!" Spark replied, then served up K.F.P for lunch. "Psyduck, return! Misty calls, Starmie!" "Spark, enough! Ariel, do your stuff!" The Vaporeon and Starmie started up a staring contest. Eventually, Starmie attacked first, releasing a Swift Attack. Ariel was knocked around. "Ariel, shrug it off! Bite attack!" Ariel ran across the room, avoiding another Swift. Then, she sunk her teeth into Starmie, and tossed it across the room. "Ariel. finish it off! Ice Beam!" Starmie didn't even hit the ground before it was frozen in ice. Misty recalled Starmie, then gave John a Cascade Badge.
