Naughty Plusle and Minun

Sometime after the Slateport contest ended, the gang came to Newton Town, where a Pokemon contest was being held. Apparently everyone in Newton Town had a electric type Pokemon with them, so the gang kept on seeing Pichu, Pikachu, Raichu, Magnemite, Magneton, Jolteon, Voltorb, Electrode, Elekid, Electabuzz, Mareep, Flaaffy and Ampharos. There were also four electric type Pokemon that the gang hadn't seen before. One of them was a green wolf-like Pokemon with yellow markings; this Pokemon was an Electrike. Another was a blue and yellow wolf-like Pokemon; this Pokemon was a Manetric, Electrike's evolved form. The last two electric type Pokemon resembled Pichu, but they were cream colored and had longer ears. One of them had red markings and the other blue. They were called Plusle and Minun; Plusle had a plus sign on it's tail and Minun had a minus sign on it's tail. May thought that Plusle and Minun were adorable and hoped she would capture her own Plusle and Minun one day.
"Why does everyone here keep an electric type Pokemon?" Ash asked.
"I know why." Max answered.
He explained that a long time ago, Newton Town was attacked by a flock of ferocious Fearow. But then an Electabuzz, a Raichu, a Manetric and an Ampharos defeated the Fearow and saved the town.
"The people were grateful to the electric type Pokemon, and ever since that day people here have loved and kept electric type Pokemon." 
"What a story." Tomo said.
"This actually reminds me of Len Town in the Johto Region." Brock said. 
Ash and Tomo recalled it too; especially since everyone in Len Town kept a psychic type Pokemon.
Suddenly the gang heard shouting.
"Stop right there you four!" A lady shouted.
The lady, with a Jolteon by her side was chasing two Plusle and two Minun. One Plusle and Minun were shiny; the Plusle had orange markings and the Minun had green markings. The Plusle and Minun released Swift and the lady and her Jolteon which stopped them in their tracks and then the two Plusle and two Minun left in a hurry.
"What on earth was that all about?" Max asked.
The gang asked the lady what just happened. She explained that the Plusle and Minun were wild Pokemon, but they love to come to the town and play pranks.
"Why do they play pranks?" May asked.
"Well the truth is, those four Pokemon were rejected many times in the past." The lady answered.
"What do you mean?" Brock asked.
The woman explained that all the electric type Pokemon in Newton Town came from a Pokemon breeding facility, where they bred electric type Pokemon. They also bred Eevee in case anyone wanted a Jolteon.
"Those four were from the breeding center too, but the Plusle and Minun that are shiny were never picked by anyone. So they play pranks on everyone because of how they were neglected."
"They probably weren't picked because of their different color. I've heard about something like this before." Ash said.
"But what about the Plusle and Minun that aren't shiny?" Tomo asked. 
"Well my guess is those two are not happy with the way the shiny Plusle and Minun were treated, so they've refused to leave them until someone does accept the shiny Plusle and Minun." The lady said.
The gang felt sorry for the Plusle and Minun.
The gang had some lunch at the Pokemon Center. May couldn't stop thinking about the Plusle and Minun; she felt sorry for them. 
"I don't really understand why no one in this town didn't want to have the shiny Plusle and Minun." Max said. "I mean normally people wouldn't flip on the chance to have a shiny Pokemon."
"That's true." Brock said. "But people treat Pokemon unfairly for all sorts of reasons."
"Yeah." Ash added. "They are even treated unfairly for being colored differently, for having a size that's different than their normal size, and also because of how emotional they can be."
"But that's not fair." Max said.
May also thought that was unfair too.
"Hey guys." She said. "I'm thinking about capturing the shiny Plusle and Minun for myself. I found them to be adorable and I don't care if they are shiny at all."
The boys thought that May's idea was a good one and Tomo decided to capture the normal Plusle and Minun.
Suddenly screams and roaring could be heard outside.
"What was that?" Ash asked.
"Sounds like trouble." Brock said. "We better see what's going on."
When they exited the Pokemon Center, they saw people and their electric type Pokemon running towards them. And then they saw a giant Onix and it was trapping electric type Pokemon by placing them in it's mouth and then swallowing them. 
"That Onix is eating the electric type Pokemon!" Max exclaimed.
"That's not a real Onix." Ash corrected Max. "It's just a robot and it's capturing the electric type Pokemon."
"Who on earth would be doing this?" May asked.
"Team Rocket probably." Brock answered. "They used something similar to Onix. Back in Len Town it was a giant Gengar robot."
"If it is Team Rocket, we need to do something about it." Ash said.
Right now the giant Onix stopped scooping up the electric type Pokemon and left the town.
"Come on." Ash insisted. "Let's go after them."
"Yeah." Max nodded and they all ran after the giant Onix.
The giant Onix was Jessie, James and Meowth's handiwork alright; they planned to swipe the electric type Pokemon from Newton Town. Their machine had a big cage in it and the electric type Pokemon were trapped in that.
"Man we were lucky to find a town full of electric type Pokemon." Meowth said.
"I'll say, I have never seen a place with so many electric type Pokemon in all my life." James said.
Jessie was looking at all the electric type Pokemon they had captured on a screen, and then she saw the shiny Plusle and Minun. The shiny Plusle and Minun were captured too and so were the non-shiny Plusle and Minun. 
"All of you will fetch a good price." She said to the electric type Pokemon.
Just then the gang arrived.
"Release those electric type Pokemon right now Team Rocket!" Ash demanded.
"Not a chance twerp." Jessie said. 
The gang prepared to fight back against Team Rocket.
"We have to be careful." Brock pointed out. "All those electric type Pokemon are inside, so if we blow it up the Pokemon will be injured in the process."
"In that case. Leave destroying it to me." Ash told the others. 
He jumped onto the giant Onix and punched it with a fist covered in fire. Nothing happened at first, but then the giant mechanical Onix began to crack from the punches and then it stopped all together.
Jessie, James and Meowth were angry and prepared to fight back, but they were blasted into the sky.
"Let's take the electric type Pokemon back to the town." Brock said.
Everyone in Newton Town was happy to have their Pokemon back and were grateful for the gang retrieving them. May was looking at her Poke Balls with a smile on her face; she did capture the shiny Plusle and Minun. She did it after the electric type Pokemon were freed from Team Rocket's machine and Tomo captured the non-shiny Plusle and Minun. So everyone was happy in the end. 
Now there was one last thing to do, prepare for Newton Town's Pokemon contest.
