Last time, Icy arrived in Cerulean City. After finding his way to the
local gym, he swiftly defeated Misty. And now...



--== An Experiment Gone Wrong ==--

--== Part 1 ==--



    Icy waited for the class to end. The students left the main gym for their
homes, comparing pokémon as they left. Icy walked over to Misty. "Who was it
that I reminded you of?" Icy asked curiously.

    Misty thought hard. It had been many years since she, Brock, and Ash had
gone adventuring together. Then, the name hit her. "Ash! From Pallet Town.
We used to go on adventures together when he was learning to be a pokémon
master. I don't know what happened to him." She notices all the Caterpie
crawling around Icy's legs. She turns green. "Ahhhhh! Bugs!!! Get them
away!!!" She continues screaming for a second but then calms herself. "Hehe.
I'm sorry. I'm not too thrilled about bugs. Hey, you look like someone who
really loves pokémon. I know someone that you should meet. His name is Bill
and he owns a lighthouse just a few miles north along the coast. He might be
able to show you some neat rare pokémon." Icy nodded and left the gym. Misty
settled down completely as the last Caterpie disappeared with Icy. "I can't
stand bugs," she muttered to herself.

Icy traveled along the coast until he could see a tall building coming into
focus. It was the lighthouse. After about 10 minutes, he finally made it to
the front door. He rang the doorbell. A voice on a speaker greeted him.

    "Hello?" it asked.

    "My name is Icy. Is this Bill's lighthouse? Misty sent me to see him."

"Yes it is. Please come in." The doors swung open to reveal a wonderfully
decorated foyer.

    "Wow," Icy said in amazement. Bill walked up to him.

    "Hello. I am Bill, a pokémon researcher." Bill extended his hand to Icy.
They shook. "I don't believe I've heard your name before. Were you at the
Cerulean party last week?"

"The name's Icy. No, I wasn't there. I was in Pallet Town during the
party I think. But I heard about Team Rocket trying to crash it. I am a
psychic trainer from Saffron City."

Bill notices the herd of Caterpie joyfully wiggling around Icy's leg.
"Very cute. You know, most trainers don't let their pokémon roam freely
outside their pokéballs." He then notices a Pikachu playing with the group
of Caterpie. "A Pikachu! Perfect!" He turns to Icy with a smile on his
face. "Icy, would you like to be the first human to be able to read a
pokémon's thoughts? It's perfectly safe."

Icy thought it over for a sec then decided it was worth a shot. "Sure,
I'll try your device."

"Great. Would you have Pikachu go into that pod over there please, and you
go into this one." Icy got into his pod and Bill started the device. For a
second, both Icy and Pikachu felt a little funny, then Icy could hear
something. The voice didn't belong to Bill, it was Pikachu's. Bill's
machine actually worked, Icy could hear Pikachu's thoughts. As he listened,
Pikachu was thinking about how much it missed the forest and the Pikachu
herd, but it was happy to have such a kind trainer. Icy was pleased to know
that his pokémon were content with him, but the serene atmosphere was
interrupted by the sound of an explosion.

    "Let go of me!" "Bwa ha ha! We got him this time!" "Let's get out of
here!" "Right!"

Just then, the machine, damaged by the explosion, went haywire. It sent a
weird beam Icy had never seen before at him. Pikachu was thrown from its pod
into the pile of Icy's pokéballs. The beam had a strange effect on Icy. As
he pulled himself together, he thought, "What a headache. Where's Bill?
What happened?" Then, he looked down at his hands. They were yellow. An
effect of the beam, possibly. Then he looked up. The controls for the
machine were almost twice his height. "Weird," he thought. A shiny,
polished surface on the device glimmered in the sunlight. He slowly walked
over to it and to a look at his reflection. What he saw was enough to make
him faint. That weird beam had transformed Icy into a Pikachu!

Xavier, Insanellama, and X were jolted awake by the sound of the
explosion. Insanellama mounted rapidash, and told the others to move
as fast as they could. Xavier got on his Nidoran, and X got aboard his
Onix. Insanellama was the first on the scene. Xavier and X got there
only seconds later. "Ok, rapidash will be our flashlight guys." said
Insanellama. They walked through a door way where a door would have
been if it hadn't been knocked off of its hinges. "WHAT THE???" said
Insanellama,"Those look like Icy's caterpie, and I think one of those
two is his pikachu." X and Xavier and Insanellama stood motionless, in
astonishment.
