41: The Problem with Paras |
||||||||
Dodgy
Synopsis
Meanwhile, Team Rocket is still following them, but Meowth is very sick. A lady comes up to them and gives Meowth some medicine and he gets better. Meowth also takes a liking to the girl who cared for him. Meowth falls in love with a beautiful young herbalist after being abandoned by Jesse and James (they would have come back!) and tried to help her Paras evolve into Parasect. The twerps meet the same girl and she wants to battle them. She needs the mushroom on a Parasect to make a new super potion, but her Paras will not evolve because it isn't getting any battle experience and is very weak. Paras is one of the weakest, most useless Pokemon ever (not useless like Vulpix is useless, but like Magikarp), knocked out by as little as a single drop of water or a miniscule stream of electricity. Ash sends Charmeleon, who is disobedient and flames Paras real good. Later on, Meowth tries to help Paras by making it think it is winning battles. It gets more confidence and it works. Paras eventually evolves into Parasect and the girl can get what she needs. A crazy old woman picks up a stray Persian and Meowth is rejected again, left to work with the 'superheroes' Jesse and James.
