••• The Movie •••
“Disturb not the harmony of fire, ice, or lightning, lest these titans wreak destruction upon the world in which they clash. Though the water's great guardian shall arise to quell the fighting, alone its song will fail, lest the earth shall turn to ash. O Chosen One, into thine hands, bring together all three. Their treasures combined tame the Beast of the Sea." - Shamouti Prophecy.
During their journey in the Orange Islands, Ash, Misty, and Tracey found themselves caught up in a dangerous situation when they discovered that Lawrence III, a Pokémon collector, was disturbing the natural peace with his nefarious intentions to capture four Pokémon, Articuno, Zapdos, Moltres, and Lugia.
Ash was revealed to be the Chosen One from the Shamouti Prophecy, a legend that spoke of a hero who could restore the balance of the elements by bringing together three treasures, taming the Beast of the Sea. To save the region from destruction, Ash and his friends set out to retrieve the three treasures, the Red, Yellow, and Blue Balls. Meanwhile, Melody accompanied the Chosen One in his quest, her name saying it all.
Despite the obstacles they faced, mostly coming from Lawrence, Ash and his friends were successful in retrieving the Red and Yellow Balls. The three legendary birds were soon reunited, yet without the Blue Ball, leading to an aerial battle. Each new strike increased the damage across the region, from freezing the ocean to installing fear among humans and Pokémon.
The fate of the region rested upon Ash’s hands. With Lugia's help, he began making his way to the last needed treasure, the Blue Ball. However, the three battling Pokémon halted his advance, forcing him to stand still in resignation.
As the situation grew dire, Jessie, James, and Meowth, longtime adversaries of Ash and his friends, appeared from nowhere and, putting their personal differences aside, helped Ash and Lugia take the Blue Ball. An act of self-sacrifice on their part allowed him to unite the Three Treasures and wait for Melody’s flute to stop the legendary birds’ fight.
With the balance of the elements restored, everyone in the region, including waves and waves of Pokémon, celebrated their newfound harmony. The legend of the Chosen One had come to life, and Ash had proven himself to be a true hero.
••• A New Ending •••
The situation was bittersweet. Although Ash saved the entire region and its inhabitants, it came at a great cost. He witnessed Jessie, James, and Meowth sacrificing their lives to help him save not just the Orange Islands, but pretty much everyone within. Despite their heroic act, no one had seen or acknowledged the trio’s sacrifice, an ignorance that weighed heavily upon him.
The trainer cried at the loss of his adversaries turned allies, who had put aside their own interests to save the world, and yet everyone else minded their own business without any recognition for them. What would be of Jessie, James, and Meowth if things remained like that? Ash had to at least keep a strong memory of them!
The teenager and his Pikachu sat above a mound edging the ocean, with Misty and Tracey watching from behind. Each of them stood silently, gazing out at the landscape before them. During this solemn moment, Misty and Tracey tilted their heads and sighed; they had been traveling with Ash for months to know that, when he remained this quiet, there was always something on his mind.
"I don't get why we're just standing here!" Misty exclaimed, breaking the silence. "We need to keep moving if we're going to find the next gym."
Tracey nodded in agreement. "Yeah, Ash, we should get going. We can't stay in one place forever!" He added.
Ash didn't respond at first. A few seconds later, he turned to his friends. "I know, but I just can't leave yet." He stated.
Misty and Tracey exchanged confused looks. "What do you mean?" She asked.
Ash gestured to the nearby hill cose to the ocean, where a humble and small memorial had been erected by him. "This is where Team Rocket sacrificed themselves to save the world. I can't leave like this, without paying my respects!"
Misty and Tracey leaned forward. "Wait, do you really mean..?” Tracey asked.
Ash looked at them with a mix of sadness and anxiety. "I know this sounds crazy, but they were willing to put everything on the line to save the world.” He replied. “I can't simply ignore that!"
Misty and Tracey remained quiet for a moment, taking in Ash's words. They frowned slightly, although they relaxed their bodies after looking into his determined eyes.
"Okay, we'll stay a little longer," Misty conceded.
Tracey nodded in agreement. "Yeah, we can take a moment to rest a bit before we continue with our journeys.” He said.
“Pika chu.” Ash’s Pikachu chimed in with a saddened tone.
Ash smiled at his friends. “Thank you, guys. That means a lot to me.” He voiced his gratitude.
Alongside each other, they stood in silence, with Misty and Tracey watching Ash pay respects to those who had given their lives for the greater good. Though he couldn't change the past, he at least honored the sacrifices that had been made towards a brighter future.
That day would surely be unforgettable.
Engulfed within their reflection, they suddenly heard groans coming from the other side of the hill, near the ocean. Standing up, Ash, Pikachu, Misty, and Tracey made their way towards the noise, eyeing their surroundings.
As they reached the edge, they saw two people and a Meowth climbing up the cliff. At first, they didn't recognize the trio, but as they got closer, they realized with a gasp that this trio was none other than Jessie, James, and Meowth from Team Rocket. The three of them looked battered and bruised, their clothes torn and soaked from the ocean water.
“Team Rocket?!” Ash exclaimed as he dropped his arms towards the trio. “Here, take my hand!”
Despite initially freezing in place, his friends also rushed to help Team Rocket up the rest of the way, putting a strong effort into the rescue.
Right as each of them placed their feet on solid ground, Ash released and remained panting for a while, his eyes still wide open. "Jessie, James, and Meowth?! What are you guys doing here?" he finally managed to say.
Jessie shot a smirk at them. "Well, well, well. Look who it is, the twerps." She sneered.
"We just saved the world, but I guess you missed that part." James spoke up.
Misty pointed a shaky finger at them. “Wait, what? You guys really saved the world?" She questioned.
"Yeah, they helped me saved us all.” Ash answered, gesturing with his hand. “I can't believe you guys did that!"
"Don't get too emotional, twerps.” Jessie retorted, crossing her arms. “We are still from Team Rocket and we want to keep it that way."
Meowth nodded in agreement. "Yeah, we wanna keep bad, get it?" He explained.
James’s eye glinted. "But deep down, we wouldn't mind being recognized as heroes.” He admitted.
Ash kept his mouth wide open. "You guys really risked your lives for us?" He had to ask them again.
"Don't get too mushy on us, A-Ash." Jessie dismissed, rolling her eyes.
"Yeah, we just did what we had to do." James chimed in.
Beneath her tough face, Misty smiled. "Thank you guys for saving us, I guess. We owe you our lives." She said.
"Hey, look! We may be on different sides, but we're all friends here." Tracey exclaimed.
Jessie shook her head. "Frenemies, you mean." She corrected.
"Yeah, frenemies sounds about right." James added with a chuckle.
"And we wouldn't have it any other way." Meowth finished, grinning.
"Piika-piikachu, pika-pikachu-chu!" Pikachu said excitedly, its tail wagging happily. Even though it couldn't understand every word they were saying, Pikachu could sense the camaraderie and friendship between his friends, and it treated this as a special moment that it would always remember.
Despite their differences, the group felt a sense of camaraderie as they spent the evening together. Jessie, James, and Meowth enjoyed the company of their former foes, even dropping their usual Team Rocket antics and joining in on the fun.
As the night wore on, Ash and his friends figured out that Jessie, James, and Meowth would eventually go back to their old ways, but they couldn't help but feel grateful for their unlikely allies. They made a silent vow to always remember the heroic actions of their frenemies and to never underestimate the power of friendship, no matter what side of the battle they were on.
“Jessie, James, and Meowth, what are you guys going to do now that you've saved the world?” Ash still asked, just to make sure.
“Same thing we always do, twerp. We're going to catch Pikachu.” Jessie replied with a smirk, her eyes glinting mischievously.
Pikachu frowned at the mention, although it didn’t do more than stop wiggling.
“Yeah, old habits die hard.” James added with a chuckle.
“But don't worry, we ain’t gonna be trouble anytime soon.” Meowth joined in.
“Yeah, we'll believe that when we see it.” Misty voiced her irony.
Tracey laughed. “You guys are our frenemies after all, right?” He asked.
“That's right.” Jessie acknowledged. “We may be on opposite sides, but no one said we can’t be your allies.”
“And we kind of appreciate you guys recognizing our heroic actions.” James added with a nod.
“Yeah, we might even save the world again someday!” Meowth suggested.
Ash laughed. “Let's hope it doesn't come to that, but we'll be ready if it does.” He affirmed.
“And we'll always have your backs.” Misty supported, smiling.
Tracey nodded in agreement. “We're all in this together.” He finished.
As the Sun disappeared in the horizon, Ash, Pikachu, Misty, and Tracey bid farewell to their frenemies, Jessie, James, and Meowth. Though they could already see Team Rocket resorting to their old antics, they couldn't help but feel grateful for the time they had spent together and the unexpected alliance they had formed.
As Jessie, James, and Meowth moved away into the distance, Ash turned to his friends, a smile on his face. "You know what? I think we just witnessed a new side of Team Rocket!" he exclaimed.
“They may be bumbling villains most of the time, but deep down, they've got a heart of gold." Misty agreed, her eye glinting.
"And it just goes to show that sometimes, the most unlikely of allies can come together to save the day!" Tracey added.
As they made their way back to their Pokémon journey, Ash and his friends felt a sense of hope. If Team Rocket could put aside their differences and save the world, then who knew what other unexpected alliances might arise in the future.
As Ash, his Pikachu, Misty, and Tracey went along with their own journey, a Slowking emerged from the ocean, its eyes following their every move. With a gentle smile on its face, the Slowking faced the audience, each person watching the movie.
"You see, these humans and Pokemon may have different goals and desires, but in the end, they are all connected by something greater than themselves. The bond between Jessie, James, and Meowth is one of rivalry and competition, yet it's also rooted in a deep friendship that cannot be broken by their constant defeats. And then there's the Chosen One, Ash, whose path crosses with Team Rocket time and time again. He may be their enemy on the surface, but deep down, he also understands and respects their journey."
The Slowking paused, its eyes twinkling with wisdom.
"Perhaps this is what makes their story so compelling - the way they constantly challenge and surprise each other, and the way their paths always seem to intersect. Who knows what adventures and obstacles they will face in the future, but one thing is for sure - the bond between them will never be broken."
