Part 1 of 4
    “Weedle!  Poison Sting now!” Mewthree commanded to his Weedle as a trainer’s Mankey attacked it.  While Icy and Sara were at the Indigo Plateau, Mewthree and Lewis were covering for them back at the gym in Viridian Forest.  All of Lewis’s Pokemon had been left 20 years in the future in Saffron city.  Mewthree had recently acquired an abandoned Venonat outside the gym, and he took it in as his second Pokemon.  Mewthree was the only one who could battle while Icy and Sara were gone.  Weedle stung the violent Mankey, but it didn’t help much.  “Mankey!  That weakling can be beaten with one hit!  Thrash!” the trainer commanded.  That made Mewthree very angry.  Weedle was his first Pokemon and Weedle was quite powerful. Mankey thrashed into Weedle and knocked Weedle into a wall.  Weedle got back up easily.  “Weedle, fight back with Drill Sting!” Mewthree commanded. Weedle jumped into the air and twisted into a drill like way and flew into Mankey.  Mankey was knocked down to the trainer’s feet.  The Mankey got up and thrashed Weedle once more.  Weedle was at Mewthree’s feet.  Mewthree knelt down and picked up the bruised up Weedle.  “Weedle, are you all right?” he asked.  Weedle nodded and jumped out of Mewthree’s arms.  He was ten feet in front of Mankey.  Weedle was looking angrily at Mankey.  “Mankey, finish it with one more thrash!” the trainer commanded.  Mankey began to thrash into Weedle, but suddenly, Mewthree’s eyes lit up, and so did Weedle’s. Weedle aimed its stinger at the thrashing Mankey and the stinger glowed.  A Psybeam fired straight out of the stinger and knocked the Mankey right back into the trainer!  “Argh!  Beaten by a bug!  How humiliating!” the trainer said.  He walked out of the gym, ashamed.  Mewthree smiled and recovered Weedle.  He recalled Weedle to his pokeball and walked up to Lewis.  Lewis was working in his room in the Forest Gym.  He was reading history books from copyright dates of 15 years into the future.  He was locating the location of when hell broke loose on earth it ten years.  The room was a mess, there were pie charts on the blackboards, paper documents, and several time related items about the catastrophe that was to happen in ten years. “Are you still trying to find a way to stop the future?” Mewthree asked.  “I want to save the future, and prevent it from being a wasteland.” Lewis replies.  “We’re supposed to be covering for Icy and Sara while they’re gone.  Not working on irrelevant projects.” Mewthree says.  “Don’t doubt me yet.  Everything related around one event: Project Doomsday.  I have managed to hack into the TR database.  They’re ready to start Doomsday 10 years early.  We have to stop them.” Lewis says.

    “They’re ready to start it?” Mewthree asked.  Mewthree went around at the computer screen and looked at it.  “Yes.  Doomsday has already been created. The only thing left is to program in attacks.  They’re pretty powerful attacks from what I’ve read.  I’ve been scanning the historical records from our time, and I’ve found something.” Lewis replies.  He points at a section in the book he’s reading and reads out loud, “Giovanni was ready to begin the Doomsday project.  Doomsday would bring himself out into the world and tear it apart.  Fortunately, two unknown citizens of the Viridian Forest discovered Giovanni’s plan, and thwarted it before Doomsday was let out. Giovanni fled, and brought the prototype Doomsday along.  It couldn’t attack or do anything, just sit in a pokeball.  Giovanni disappeared for 10 years until Doomsday started all over again, this time with the arrival of MissingNo.”  Lewis closed the book.  “We are those two people from the Viridian Forest.  We’re destined to prevent Doomsday from happening.  But, now we know what Giovanni will do, so we can stop him before he escapes and he can be incarcerated!” Lewis says.  Mewthree gets up and says, “Then there is no time to waste!  Quickly, close the Gym for the rest of the day.  We’ll get you a Pokemon so you can battle Giovanni.”  The two drank some pop, and quickly exited and locked the Gym.  They came upon a Pidgeotto, and Lewis caught it easily with his Psi powers.  “Now, we must get to Viridian.” Mewthree says.  It took them two hours, but they arrived in Viridian. “Under the protection of darkness, we can sneak into the Gym.  Ready?” Lewis asked.  “Ready to save history, Weedle, Venonat, go!” Mewthree commanded. Weedle and Venonat exited the pokéballs.  “Weedle!” Weedle said.  “Ven! Nat!” Venonat said.  “Are you ready to save history?” Mewthree asked. “Weed!  Ven nat!”

    “Venonat, Psybeam!” Mewthree commanded.  Venonat fired a powerful beam of Psychic energy at the Rocket guard.  He was knocked unconscious.  He and Lewis walked into the Viridian Gym with ease.  There was barely anyone there, it was midnight of course.  Lewis was holding a pistol he had stolen from the unconscious Rocket.  They entered the Gym area.  Giovanni was sitting in his chair, petting a Persian.  “So, two more trainers to waste? I will not battle at this hour.  I have more important things to do...” Giovanni said as he turned his chair around.  “Like finish project Doomsday?” Mewthree asked.  Giovanni stopped and slowly turned around. “That’s right, Doomsday.  We know all about it.  We know that Doomsday is ready tonight, and we know that we’re here to stop it.” Lewis says. Giovanni pushed a button on his chair.  Two figures dressed in black Team Rocket uniforms jumped down and said, “Prepare for Trouble and make it double!”  “Oh, the poem, this should be interesting.” Mewthree said with a sneer.  “To infect the world with devastation!” The girl said.  “To blight all peoples in every nation.” The boy said.  “To denounce the goodness of truth and love!”  “To extend our wrath to the stars above!”  “Cassidy!” “Butch!”  “We’re Team Rocket, circling earth all day and night!”  “Surrender to us now or you will surely lose the fight!”  “That’s right!”  “Cate!”
    “Are you done yet?” Mewthree asks.  “Yes, and now it’s time to face Team Rocket’s wrath!  Raticate, Drowzee, go!” Butch and Cassidy shout.  The pokeballs flung at Lewis and Mewthree.  Mewthree raised his hand, and the pokeballs stopped in mid-air.  Butch and Cassidy got scared.  Mewthree pushed his hand forward, and the pokeballs flung back at Butch and Cassidy. Both balls hit their heads.  They then started to run.  When Butch and Cassidy were gone, Mewthree and Lewis looked around.  Giovanni was gone! Lewis went up to look at Giovanni’s chair.  There was a compartment behind it!  He opened it and said, “Come on, let’s go.”  They both went in, and entered the Pokemon lab.

    “I think we found their lab.” Mewthree said.  They walked further into the lab.  It was similar to the lab Mewthree was created in, but there were differences.  Lewis walked over to a console and said, “Project: Doomsday. 97% completed.  Probability of success: high.  Purpose: Domination of the world.” Lewis read.  “Let’s take a look at Doomy.  Shall we?” Mewthree asked.  He pushed several buttons and a large cylinder came down from the roof.  Gels poured in and gas tubes poured in something that was forming into a shape...  A Pokemon!  When it finally stopped, they saw Doomsday.  It was colored a horrifying tan.  It looked like the torso up of a rotted skeleton.  With the arms, the bones curved into sharp blades, and beneath the torso, there was just a dirty rag.  “Pokedex data: It was resurrected from the bowels of the earth.  It’s most powerful move, Darkening, can drain the life out of an entire Pokemon, except for ghost type.” Lewis read. “This is insane!  A creature resurrected from the dead???  They’re gonna use a ghost to wipe out humanity!” Mewthree shouts.  “Indeed.” Giovanni said as he walked up from a dark corner.  “That is the most powerful ghost of them all, with that, Team Rocket will rule the world!” Giovanni shouts.  “Are you always this insane???  That thing won’t conquer mankind, it’ll destroy it!” Lewis shouts.  “Boo hoo mankind.” Giovanni says with a sneer.  Mewthree starts powering up a hyper beam and points it at the tube.  “What are you doing???” Giovanni shouts.  “Isn’t it obvious?  I’m destroying that thing.” Mewthree says.  “No!  It’ll take years to recreate the project!  We barely had anything left from the Mews!” Giovanni says.  “Boo hoo Team Rocket.” Lewis says.  “Guards!  Kill them!” Giovanni shouts.  Team Rocket members begin pouring in and aim pokeballs.  Too late!  Mewthree fires the Psybeam and forms a psy shield around him and Lewis.  The tube explodes.  Too bad Mewthree didn’t know that the gel in the tube was flammable.  The gel exploded in massive flames.  “We have to get out of here!” Lewis shouts. There was an explosion just as Mewthree began to teleport them.  It knocked Lewis and Mewthree into a cart of pokeballs.  They then teleported as the gym began to explode.  Mewthree got them all the way back to the Viridian city Pokemon center.  They watched the explosions of the gym as it started to burn down.  “Hey!  When we were knocked into those pokeballs, I grabbed one!” Lewis says.  He throws the pokeball outwards and out come a... Donfan!  Lewis now had a Donfan at his disposal.
    Meanwhile...  “It’ll take ten years to recreate Doomsday without the lab.” A Rocket Scientist said to Giovanni.  “Handle it.  In the meantime, find out who those two fools were who destroyed Doomsday.” Giovanni said as he stroked the head of his Persian.
    Mewthree was sipping tea and stroking his Weedle  chair.  It was now the afternoon after what had happened at the lab.  The video phone rang. Mewthree got up and pressed the phone receiver.  “Hello?” he asked. “Mewthree!  It’s Icy!” Icy replied.  “Oh hi Icy!  How are things at Pokemon League?  Are you a Pokemon master yet?” Mewthree asked.  “Sadly, no.  I just lost to Agatha.” Icy said.  “Hmmm, should we come up to help?” Mewthree asked.  “Nah, I’ll figure something out.  So what’ve you been doing?” Icy asked.  “Recovering the future.” Mewthree said.  “Hey Mewthree!  I think I’ve found a prophecy about MissingNo.!” Lewis shouts from his room.  “There he goes again.  See ya, Icy.  God luck at the League.” Mewthree says.  “I’ll need it.” Icy replies.  They both hung up.
