The gang had entered a small city on their way to Cornmarine and Bonnie rushed up to two large cylinders.

"There they are Clemont! There they are! I see them! Right, Clemont?" Bonnie asked.

"Absolutely. Go right ahead Dedenne, you too Pikachu," Clemont told them. "Jolteon and Rotom would also enjoy."

"I'll take your word for it. Jolteon, out!" Rainbow sent out her Electric Type.

All four Electric Pokémon stepped inside. Electricity flooded from the device and the electric types enjoy it.

"Wow it's like an eclectic shower," Serena said.

"Awesome and they love it," Ash added.

"I know right? My big brother invented these all by himself," Bonnie boasted.

"You made something that didn't explode?" Hilda asked.

"Yeah, but I had a little help from Fluttershy," Clemont admitted.

"We call them Clemontic Showers," Fluttershy said as she look around the city. "This place has changed a bit, it takes me back."

"Clemont? Fluttershy?"

Everyone looked and saw a woman in a lab coat looking at them.

"It's really you!"

"Ms. Eclairisse! It's been so long," Clemont exclaimed.

"Who's the lady?" Rainbow asked.

"I don't know," Applejack answered.

"What are you doing here?"

As our heroes continue their journey to the Cornmarine City Gym

They unexpectedly cross paths with a woman named Eclairisse

"You see, right now I'm on a journey with my little sister and my friends," Clemont explained as they introduce themselves.

Much Later...

"A school for studying electric type Pokémo?" Rainbow asked.

"Yeah, it's in the middle of town. It's in the middle of town. You see, Clemont and Fluttershy were both students," Bonnie explained.

"Wow, no joke?"

"Nope. Look there it is," Fluttershy as he pointed toward the buildings.

"Would you all like to come in and have a look?" Eclairlesse asked them.

"Is that okay?" Ash asked.

"Of course it is."

They entered the school and she took them on a tour.

"Here at our school, trainers travel from all over to learn everything they can about electric Pokémon, Our students specialize in researching the biological behaviors of electric-type Pokémon. Their studies extend to other types as well. As a part of the research, they learn all about how people and Pokémon can and should coexist in harmony. Many great trainers have become very successful after leaving this but Clemont and Fluttershy are the most notable graduates of all," She said after the tour.

"Come on, I think you're exaggerating a bit," Clemont said.

"No way you're amazing," Bonnie told him. "Yeah, you always make these really cool inventions that explode in the end. "

"Back then they use to call us The Electric Type Wizz Kid and The Pokémon Whipser" Fluttehshy said.

"So how did work out for you? Did you make lots of friends?" Ash asked.

"I made friends with all kinds of great students and Pokémon too. But all that studying and research was tough, to say the least."

"The curriculum here is quite rigorous. It's a challenge to do the work and get all the way to graduation," Eclairlssse added.

"Yes, and my graduation research was particularly tough," Clemont stated.

"Graduation research?" Rarity asked.

"As Fluttershy studied the behavior of Pokémon. I studied the power of electric-type Pokémon and how the power of science can build the future. That was my major focus," Clemont explained.

"I recall you struggled with that. You said you couldn't come up with any good topics."

"Right, so Fluttershy told me of a place that she goes there to clear her mind, That's where we met you-know-who," Clemont said.

"What do you mean that?" Applejack asked.

"Oh right, you see, I was walking with Clemont when we found an exhausted Shinx and a Sabelye. We both took them to the Pokémon Center and Nurse Joy said that something in the environment here made it hard for electric types. That's when I came up with my idea for the Clemontic Showers. Shinx and Sabelye came back multiple times to help us out all the way to graduation," Clemont explained.

"The Electrical Transmission System that Clemont invented was well received not only by the school but by the town's population as well," Eclairisse added.

"That's the very first time I heard those two talk about Sabelye and Shinx," Bonnie said.

"So, what happened to them?" Applejack asked.

"I wish I knew," Fluttershy said. "After graduation either me or Clemont saw them."

As the gang was talking Team Rocket was eavesdropping

"Fascinating, this ample of electricity," James said.

"In that case, let's steal every last bit of it for ourselves," Jessie suggested.

"Since electricity doesn't come cheap, we make selling to suckers," Duke said. "But we give it to the boss..."

"He'll be shocked but happy," Cylde said.

"Wobbuffet."

Team Rocket went to power plant to drain the electricity whereas a wandering Luxio and a Sableye were walking by until heard a sound but saw nothing a moved on. Then Team Rocket dropped their sheet and sigh in relived.

"That was a close one," Aria said.

"Dropping pilers could've been bad for your health," Jessie snapped at Wobbbuffet.

"Wobb Wobb!" Wobbuffet quickly grabbed them.

"Anyone wonder what those two are doing?" Adagio asked.

"Not sure but let's not find out," Cylde said as he accessed the panel.

"If control electricity, you control the world. Our ticket to high voltage future!" Duke exclaimed.

"Right, we lure Pikachu and Espeon with the stolen electricity and then we catch them," Jessie exclaimed. "Perfect and goal! Yeah!"

"Wobbuffet!"

...
...

"Clemont! Fluttershy! What a nice surprise," One of the workers said.

"Sorry to barge in, but I was wondering: May we show all my friends around?" Clemont asked.

"Sure, not a problem."

Then the lights turned red and the alarms sound.

"Status report!"

"There is a problem with the transmission cables near the transformer."

"Could it be them again?"

"Just what are you referring to?" Fluttershy asked.

"Well, the thing is, two Pokémon have been making their home there, and whenever we approach, they attack," he said.

"It's fine, I'll go and check it out."

"Please, let us come with you."

"Sure since you're the designer, your opinion is valuable."

"Pinkie, Rarity stay behind to keep an eye on Bonnie, the rest of us will keep the wild Pokémon busy while the guys work on whatever is broken," Hilda said as they headed out

"It's at the end of the passageway."

With Team Rocket...

"What's with the holdup?" Aria asked.

"It's a bit trickier than I thought," Clyde said as the lights were on them.

"Hey who's in there?" The worker asks.

"Team Rocket!" Rainbow Dash exclaimed.

"What are you guys doing here?" Ash asked.

"Pika!"

"I think we'd better make like bananas and split!" Sonata shouted and they started to run.

"Stop!" Serena shouted at them then the wild Pokémon came from behind.

"What are they?" Applejack asked.

"A Luxio and a Sableye," Ash replied then Applejack scanned Luxio and then Sableye.

Luxio. The Spark Pokémon. The evolved form of Shinx. Strong electricity courses through the tips of its sharp claws. A light scratch causes fainting in foes.

Sableye. The Darkness Pokémon. It dwells in the darkness of caves. It uses its sharp claws to dig up gems to nourish itself.

Luxio attacks them with Swfit as Sableye did Power Gem.

"Pikachu, Thunderbolt!"

"Espeon, Psybeam!"

The Psybeam and Thunderbolt canceled out the attacks.

"Lux!"

"Sabe!"

"Hey! We ain't the bad guys they went that!" The worker told and they went in the direction of Team Rocket.

"Hey Clemont, didn't the Luxio look familiar?" Fluttershy asked

"It did," Clemont replied.

With Team Rocket, they hid behind recycle bin as Luxio and Sableye went topside.

"Just great it's two again," Adagio groaned.

"Hey., guys, it's the tower that science twerp was talking about," James said looking at it.

Then everything grinned.

"It looks like re made rethink our strategy," Jessie suggested.

"Will retool, and send the twerp back to Team Rocket school," Duke exclaimed.

"Woob!"

"Mur!"

"Team Rocket?" Eclairlesse asked.

"They're really bad guys who like other people's stuff including Pokémon," Ash explained.

"Pika Pika!"

"So they want to steal the town's electricity then we're going to go have to stop them."

"They're stubborn, I'm sure they'll be back," Sernea stated.

"They will. The problem, from my understanding, there are a lot of places where they can steal it from. And we can't guard them all," Hilda asked.

"Your right, any ideas, Clemont?" Bonnie asked her big brother who was lost in thought. "Clemont, wake up!"

"Huh, No, I don't have any ideas," Clemont said.

"Well, we'll have to be high alert. I'll let Officer Jenny know what's going on."

The gang headed to their room were chilling as Rarity and Serena were grooming their Pokémon and Clemont and Fluttershy stared out the window.

"Is something bothering you two?" Zane asked.

"I was think about Shinx and Sableye," Clemont anserwed.

"You think he's still here?" Jaden asked.

"I'm sure of it," Clemont assured. "But I didn't tell finish my story."

"What do you mean?" Rainbow Dash asked.

"It was the day of our graduation and something bad happened, We had a regular meeting place and we were heading there to thank both of them for the help and we wanted them to come along with us, however, the mayor showed up before we knew it, we were heading toward a restaurant to celebrate. As soon as dinner was over, Clemont and I headed back but they were gone by that point and we never saw them again," Fluttershy explained.

"And you think that those we found near the transformer are the same ones?" Rainbow followed up.

"It's a big possibility. Looking into Luxio's eyes, no doubt it's the same Pokémon," Clemont said.

"Sabeleye was wearing my barrettes, which means she'll have to remember me," Fluttershy added.

Then the lights went out.

"Oh no! It's a blackout!" Bonnie shouted then Eclairlesse came into the room.

"Clemont this is awful. A huge amount of electricity has been drained from the system," She told them.

"I have a hunch it's Team Rocket," Twilight guessed.

"How we were looking?" Aria asked.

"Good, there is nothing better than free electricity," Clyde exclaimed

Then out of nowhere, Luxio and Sableye attack them with Sucker Punch and Thunder Fang which they avoided but all of them were annoyed.

"Why you little pests!" Jessie shrieked.

"We had enough of constant annoyance," Clyde said.

"That's your cue, Pumpkboo."

"Inkay, you too!"

"Let's rumble, Simmisear!"

"Excadrill, out!"

"I told the townspeople, that they should stay inside their homes until the hold issue is solved," Eclairlesse said. "Also according to Officer Jenny, they found no one below ground.

"But where did Team Rocket go?" Applejack asked.

"They were able to drain all the power at once, somehow?" Clemont thoughted. "Hey, I got it!"

Meanwhile, Luxio and Sabelye tried to stop Team Rocket as they dodge Pumpkboo's Dark Pulse then dodged Inkay's Psybeam.

"Sludge Bomb!" Adagio called.

Luxio and Sabelye took a direct hit by Skunktank's Sludge Bomb that made skidded to the ground then Clemont and the others arrived.

"Luxio!"

"Sableye!"

Both Clemont and Fluttershy ran to them.

"Team Rocket there you are!" Ash exclaimed.

"Give the electricity back that you jerks stole!" Pinkie shouted.

"Prepare for trouble, how foolish is that?"

"Make it double, it's tit for tat!"

"To protect the world from devastation,"

"To untie all people within our nation,"

"To denounce the evils of all your rules,"

"To shut down the power of arrogant schools ,"

"Jessie."

"James."

"Adagio."

"Aria."

"Sonata."

"Duke."

"And Clyde."

Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!"

"Surrender now or prepare for a lights-out fight!"

"Meowth that's right!"

"Wobbuffet!"

"Houndour!"

"Murkrow!"

Both Luxio and Sableye got up and attack them again with Thunder Fang and Sucker Punch.

"No way, Inkay, I call Foul Play!"

"Interpet with Iron Tail!"

Skunktank strike its tail at Sabelye and Inkay tossed Luxio to the ground.

"Simmisear, Fire Blast!"

"Corsola, Bubble Beam!"

Corsola's Bubble Beam zeroed out Simmisear's Fire Blast.

"Don't worry, you two, just stay down, and we'll take care of this," Clemont said as mustered their strength to get back up.

"Luxio!"

"Sabe!"

"Why do both of you insist on battling Team Rocket?" Serena asked then two Pokémon explained with allow Meowth to translate.

"Dig this, they're saying. both of them are fighting where all people and Pokémon can live together. They've been protecting the place science twerp and bashful twerp helped.

"Where all Pokémon can happily," Fluttershy said.

"How stupid can you be?" Duke exclaimed.

"Finish this, Shadow Ball!"

"Flamethrower!"

"Look out!"

Clemont and Fluttershy stood in front. taking the hit.

"Clemont! Fluttershy!" Bonnie shouted.

"You guys okay?" Fluttershy asked then Luxio licked Clemont's face and Sabelye nodded.

"Guys. we're good to go!" Sonata exclaimed their device gave a green light.

"We got the juice, so time to cut loose. Now for Pikachu and Espeon, you're coming with us without excuse!" Meowth said.

"Kay, Inkay Psybeam."

"Pumpakboo, Dark Pulse!"

"Manectric, Electro Ball!"

Manectric fired Electro Ball that stopped the Dark Pulse and the Psybeam.

"Would please stand battle with us?" Clemont asked then Luxio and Sabelye nodded.

"Great, use Discharge!"

"Sableye, Night Shade!"

Both attacks hit Pumpkaboo and the others which caused Meowth's device to spark and then explode and send them flying.

"Looks like School is out and WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!" Sontata screamed as they disappear.

"We did it!" Pinkie cheered.

Luxio and Sableye then turned to leave.

"Luxio, Sablye wait!" Fluttershy stopped them. "I would really like you to come with us. Both Clemont and I gave you our word and we let you down, But now we'll wait for you. At the time and place. It's your choice to come or not, me and Clemont will respect your choice."

The Next Day...

"I don't see them anywhere," Serena pointed as they waited for Luxio and Sableye.

"I guess they still mad," Applejack said.

"Luixo and Sableye will show. We just have to give him a little more time," Ash said confidently.

"I don't know, it could either way," Sunset said then suddenly both Luxio and Sableye appeared.

"You came back after all," Clemont said as he and Fluttershy started to tear up. "There's one thing to do now."

"Go Poké Ball!"

Both of them threw the device. Luixo and Sableye went inside and the Poké Balls caught them.

"I guess they decided to give us a second chance."

"And I don't plan to waste it."
