Covering Old Ground!
“Let’s see…” James had successfully caught Phanpy and Gligar. Jessie, Trapinch and Numel. Why was this list seeming so long? This would really be easier with the other two, but what was a Rocket to do? Jessie had business of her own to worry about, and Meowth was going ‘on an adventure!’
…”We can do this by ourselves! Right Abra?”

“Hey, I remember you!” James laughed jovially, remembering the last time he’d seen the red-headed Galactic. “You’re back?”

“…Ten… years…?” That’s a really long time to be looking ahead to, even for Meowth. The three had always worked on getting to the top fast, hadn’t they? James crossed his arms, not really sure what to say. Though it was plain to see that he was thinking very hard about the situation. “That does sound like a good plan…” but it meant no Meowth for… ten years?...
rockets-top-cat:
This was a star case and example of just how selfish and greedy Meowth could get. “Jus’ picture it for a minute, would ya?” He took a deep breath, exhaling slowly, a smile spreading on his feline face.
“It’s ten years from now, da Boss is only a few years short of KARP (the Kanto Association of Retired People) membership, and he ain’t got no one in his family to continue the...

“Uh huh! See, I didn’t know da Boss was a dad, either, but if you saw this kid, you’d know he ain’t lying. They’s got da same eyes!” They smiled a lot alike, too. “His name’s Silver, an’ he’s just a little younger than you and Jessie.”
“I’m gonna travel with him for a little ways an’ help him catch a new Pokemon. Think about it, James. This is an opportunity in da making!...

“Did you know da Boss has a teenage son? You’s and Jessie can keep on keeping on for a while. I’m gonna go on an ADVENTURE!”
“I didn’t know that! How did you find tha—wait… an adventure?”

Jessie was glad she was finally working with James again. It wasn’t quite the same when they were working separately. Still, she missed Meowth. He was an important part of their team, though she’d never tell him that.
“Abra? You caught an Abra?” Jessie was impressed. An Abra was definitely useful, especially since they had to travel so much. No more robots for them!
She smiled,...

Finally, James had seen Jessie again. They finally started to feel like a team, but they were still missing a key player: Meowth. Their scheming feline dreamer somehow ended up halfway across the world, and the other two weren’t going to be finishing anything without him.
Before they could leave, James had to get his Abra back. Surely she was exhausted. To say their trip had been a long one...

richesareoverrated replied to your post: “Meowth, are you gonna come over here or aren’t you? This Pokemon Center is getting pretty boring.”
“Meowth, don’t tell me I have to come get you.” James frowned, thinking of how miserably long that could take depending on where he was. Then it hit him. “Wait a minute… I could come get you!” He did have an Abra, after all. “Where are...

Ya know what, Jimmy boy?
rockets-top-cat:
Yer right. Where can I meet up with you guys? I want to help ya snag those other ten.
Do you have to call me that, James whined in his head. He wasn’t willing to ask though, since the topic-switch was ultimately successful. “We’re in Eterna city at the Pokémon Center.” He hesitated over what to say next, considering the conversation, but then…...

James, who was much less critical of his feline friend, answered with enthusiasm, “We’re catching Pokémon for the Boss!” Pulling out his Pokégear, he presented it to Meowth and showed him a list of primarily ground-types with four crossed off. “See?!”
Meowth blinked, glanced over the list, and then back at the other two. “You mean you knocked out four...

“Meowth!” James absolutely beams, taking the request to heart. He begins to rapidly point at buttons and spit out what they do, replacing most of the buttons with ‘this thing’.

As he asked, “She’s alive?” Jessie’s face clouded over. The anger and hurt set in again, all the emotions she had tried to forget.
“Not… not much happened…” She felt safer, and more protected, with James’s hands wrapped around hers. “She wants to meet… I’m scared, James. I’m nervous and I’m scared and I don’t know what I want anymore.”
He wasn’t sure if he was relieved or...

He sounded enthusiastic, far too enthusiastic. Jessie had known him long enough to tell. She smiled, a genuine smile, when he told her about the Gligar. “What about you,”” he asked.
“Well, I’ve been ok- I guess.” Should she tell him? Jessie didn’t know. She stared down at the table, and babbled about how she hated Trapinch now.
Who else but James would she tell?
“Ja-Justin… I…...

One word. Just one word. Jessie sighed, knowing that she shouldn’t have expected anything else. She missed him, but she certainly wasn’t going to admit it, so why should he?
She didn’t know why she wanted to change the plan- She told herself that it was because she and James worked better together, but that really wasn’t true. They were making more progress working alone, but she...

“I just left the Blackthorn Pokémon Center.” James smiled at his Pokégear, beaming at his upcoming statement. “And I don’t need a week. I’ve got Abra! I’ll see you when you get there,” he teased, exited at the chance to sound like he was doing something right—especially after that Spearow fiasco…
Jessie was impressed- James was actually doing pretty well! She smiled. “Well,...

Covering Old Ground!
Part One • Part Two • Part Three
Abra was exhausted. The jump to the Blackthorn City Pokémon Center only wore on her more, but at least a good rest was in order as a reward.
One Justin Casely sat fairly impatiently at a booth, having scoffed down all of the food brought to him in a matter of minutes. One would look at him and question if he cared about his Pokémon at all, considering how he...

Part One • Part Two
Although her eyes weren’t open, Abra seemed to glare at the intruder. They were supposed to have been safe here, but it seems as though this safe haven had already been claimed. Behind her sat her injured trainer and even worse-off partner—a Yamask recently attacked by a swarm of Spearow.
Two Gligar faced the trio. It appeared that one of the two was younger,...

“Right. Gligar’s Next!” James looked down and smiled at his Carnivine, who matched his gaze with a look of determination. “Perhaps we should look in the trees for our flying friend.” Again, Carnivine responded with enthusiasm, nodding its head furiously. But James, who thought that perhaps he should be more considerate of his resources, crossed his arms...

A young Abra might have stamina, but lacks in skill. James’ was able to take him where he needed to go, but now without stopping almost town-to-town. It would seem that practice alone wasn’t going to make perfect, so how was he going to improve that teleport of hers?
“Thanks Abra, return!”
Well, he was at Route 45 anyway. He would find two of the Pokémon on his list here,...

A mission. The Boss gave James a mission. This particular Agent could have only been more excited if Jessie had been able to come along, too. But alas, this trip would be made alone.
James went over the list Giovanni had sent him. He recognized most of them from Hoenn and Johto, although a good chunk were from Unova, too. Hopefully he wouldn’t run into the twerps while he was there. It...
underworld-boss replied to your post: A Mission...
I have a list of Pokemon I want you to catch for me. Get as many of these Pokemon on the list. Understood?
The boss wants me to catch Pokémon? So he doesn’t hate me after all! James gave a simple salute to display that he took the mission seriously. “Yes, sir!”
underworld-boss asked: James, I have a mission for you. Or are you busy hunting that Pikachu still?

Jessie quickly dropped to her knees to greet the little Pokemon, a big grin on her rosy painted lips. “Why hello there, sweetie. Aren’t you just the most adorable little Pokemon I have ever seen!?” she cooed to it, reaching out scratch gently under her chin.
“Like it? James… This is the absolute best gift that I have ever received. I cannot thank you enough. I absolutely...

“Alright. Alright.” She said, looking over at James, cocking her eyebrows, as he begun to whine. “You’re acting like a Growlithe without a bone, James. I’ll open it, I’ll open it.” She laughed, lifting up the Pokeball in her hands to inspect it first. Did James really catch something for her? Did he steal it? What could it be?!
With a click of the button, the Pokeball opened...

Jessie was ecstatic that James was enjoying his gift so much. She even didn’t mind when he gave her a squeeze during their hug. He had seemed so different since they had met back up again… So seeing him this happy made her smile. “It’s no big deal. I just picked them up when I went out looking for any sign of my mother, you know? I wasn’t sure if you had a few of them or...

Jessie watched as James tore at the wrapping paper in awe as bits of shimmering red and green were tossed about. She did he best to catch what she could and toss it into a near-by trash can, but it was a waste of her time, there were too many pieces for her to grab. She would rather focus on that after she saw James’ reaction to the gift she worked hard to recover for him.

Jessie glanced down at the dress with a smirk. “You think so? Well, Thanks James. You look rather spiffy yourself!” she said with a wink, holding out a neatly wrapped package to him. “I don’t want to wait any longer. Open it.” she said, urging him to unwrap the gift.
Inside was a collectors book with about forty bottle caps inside- some of which James had to sell in the...
