Ash, Brock, and Misty were walking along the road to the 下一个 town when they saw someone riding past them on a Rapidash. Outta my way! 说 the mysterious figure Who do 你 think that was? asked Misty Beats me. 说 Ash Whoever it was, we should go find out who it was. 说 Brock When everyone arrived to where they saw the mystery person go, they were surprised to find out it was Lara Laramie. Lara Laramie! 说 Brock, Misty, and Ash at the same time How'd 你 three know it was me!? 说 Lara Laramie I'm just messing with you. I had this disguise on so no one would know it's me. 说 Lara Laramie, taking off her disguise (Meanwhile with Team Rocket) It looks like that girl with the Rapidash and Growlithe is back. 说 Jessie Wobbuffet! 说 Wobbuffet, popping out of his pokeball What's the plan? Are the three of us going to find some way to steal some of the Pokemon down there at the ranch? asked James 你 know. That could be arranged. 说 Meowth, going along with James's plan Oh goodie. 说 James, happy as a 蛤, 文蛤 (After Lara, Ash, Brock, and Misty leave) Here's the plan. We'll steal that nice bunch of Sandslash over there. 说 Jessie I like your thinking. What are we waiting for? Let's get stealing. 说 Meowth Hey. What do 你 think you're doing? No one's allowed into the ranch but us breeders. 说 the Sandslash breeder Well, we're making an exception. 说 Jessie And we're here to steal all your Sandslash. 说 Meowth Are 你 breeders? asked the breeder Uh yes...said James, lying (After exiting into the sky in their balloon) Hey! 你 lied to me when 你 answered my question! 说 the breeder I knew all along what 你 were really like: 你 just 说 你 were breeders as an excuse to steal my Sandslash. 说 the breeder. Misty, Ash, Lara Laramie, and Brock stepped out in time to see Team Rocket getting away in their balloon with the Sandslash. Oh thank goodness! Can 你 four try and get my Sandslash back for me? I would try to stop them, but I have no extra Pokemon on me. 说 the breeder Noctowl! Go! Noctowl, go find Team Rocket's balloon and hurry! 说 Ash 你 too Crobat! 说 Brock Crobat and Noctowl hurried out and found a suspicious breeding center and saw the Sandslash inside with Team Rocket. Noctowl and Crobat came back, reporting that they found a breeding center further away in the forest. Once they heard this, Brock, Misty, Lara Laramie, Ash, and the breeder infriltrated the fake breeding center, which turned out to be Team Rocket's balloon, which folded back up into their balloon. Bye bye. Have fun with your ranch now. 说 Jessie, taunting the breeder Sandslash, cut yourselves free from the net. 说 the breeder Meowth! Shouldn't 你 be keeping a close eye on those Sandslash? asked James I am...unless...oh no! They're cutting themselves loose from the net! Take a look for yourselves! 说 Meowth Jessie and James saw he was right. Hey! Get back here! We worked so hard to steal you! 说 Jessie We're not about to let these Sandslash get away. 说 James There's still one left. We can get if we hurry! 说 Meowth Right! 说 Jessie and James at the same time as they attempted to grab the Sandslash as it ran all around their balloon Hold still so i can grab you! yelled Jessie She was unsuccesful at grabbing Sandslash and it used her head to get away. James atttempted to snatch it up when it jumped out of his path and out of the balloon, resulting in James grabbing Meowth instead What's the big idea!? 你 were supposed to grab the Sandslash, not me! yelled Meowth Well it's not my fault i can't tell the difference. replied James 由 then, Sandslash had crawled up to a spot in the balloon, causing Jessie and James to panic at the possibility of Sandslash using its claws to pop a hole in the balloon. They tried to reason with it, but it was too late and the balloon was losing air, causing Team Rocket to blast off, but not before Sandslash jumped off their deflated balloon at the right moment (Later that afternoon) Thanks for getting my Sandslash back. 说 the breeder No problem. But Lara Laramie is the real hero of the day. She helped get your Sandslash back. 说 Ash That's real nice of 你 to say to me Ash. 说 Lara Laramie, flattered Which city are 你 headed to 下一个 由 the way? asked Lara Laramie Olivine City. Where I hope to win the Mineral Badge. 说 Ash Well. I wish 你 the best of luck. 说 Lara Laramie Thanks for everything. they said, saying their final farewells to Lara Laramie. With that, they pressed on to Olivine City
