Mario and Luigi are eating breakfast.

Mario: Well, Luigi, this is quite a peaceful day.

Luigi: Yeah. I haven’t heard a peep from Peach about Bowser.

Mario: Ha ha. Yeah…

Meanwhile on a far away planet, a boy named Lucas and his friend Tom are at Tom’s house.

Lucas: Tom, what are going to do again?

Tom: You saw that report on the news! They’re hunting for a red Gyarados! I bet there’s something like that at the lake! We’re going to find it!

Lucas: But how will we capture it if we don’t have any Pokémon or Pokéballs?

Tom laughs.

Tom: We’re not going to capture it! I’m going to bring my camera! We’ll snag a picture of it and then we’ll rake in a lot of money!

Lucas: Oh. I get it.

Lucas visions himself with a Master Ball (that he bought with the money in his vision), throwing it and capturing the rare pokémon he thinks he and Tom will find. Tom visions himself living in a mansion. A huge mansion.

Tom: Let’s go!

Tom grabs his camera and they head out of his room.

Meanwhile at Bowser’s castle…

Ludwig: Come, siblings!

Ludwig takes his siblings to his lab. He shows them a big computer screen and a keyboard with 80 buttons.

Ludwig: This machine will get rid of the Marios forever!

Wendy: What does it do?

Ludwig: I’ll demonstrate…

Ludwig types on the keyboard. A view of Plit from outer space is shown on the screen and the screen zooms in to show Mario’s house.

Ludwig: By ridding the world of the Marios! *crazy laugh from the Mario Cartoon*

Ludwig types on the keyboard some more and Mario’s house is zapped away. In its place appears another house.

Lemmy: Exce-

Iggy: Lent!

Roy: But what’d it do?

Ludwig: It replaced the Marios’ house with the house of someone from another planet! *crazy laugh* Come! We must capture the aliens!

The Koopalings rush out of the castle, wielding weapons.

At Tom’s house…

Tom: Okay! Let’s go find a rare-

The Koopalings are right outside the door, weapons aimed at Lucas and Tom.

Lucas: Uh oh.

Tom: Wow. These are rare.

Tom takes a picture of the Koopalings.

Meanwhile where Tom’s house was…

Mario: Luigi? Did you hear something?

Luigi: No.

Mario walks outside. He looks around and sees they are not in the Mushroom Kingdom.

Mario: Uh oh. Luigi?  Luigi: Don’t tell me, we’re not at home, are we?

Mario slowly shakes his head to say “no”. Luigi gulps. They walk outside. They see people walking around the town casually.

Mario: Where are we?

Luigi: Not home.

Mario sees a sign that says “Welcome to Twinleaf Town”.

Mario: I think we’ve been zapped to another world.

Luigi: Imagine that. ‘_‘

Mario and Luigi head over to a house and knock on the door. A woman opens the door.

Woman: Oh, hello. Who might you be?

Mario: I’m Mario and this is my brother Luigi.

Luigi: Hi.

Woman: Oh. My name’s Johanna. Did you need something?

Mario: Ma’am, who lives there?

Mario points in the direction of his house.

Johanna: Oh, my son’s friend, Tom. He should be home already. They were going to the lake.

Mario takes Johanna by the hand and shows her his house.

Johanna: *gasp* What happened?

Mario: Ma-am, I live there. I think your son and his friend are where we used to live.

Johanna shakes Mario.

Johanna: Where’s Lucas?! Where’s my son?

Johanna goes inside her house and closes the door behind her.

Luigi: That went well.

Mario glares at Luigi.

Mario: C’mon!

Mario takes Luigi by the hand and pulls him. They run away from the town.

Luigi: Where are we going?

Mario: To the lake! Johanna’s son was headed there! We may be able to find something out!
 

Part 2: Mario and Luigi, Say Hello to Chimchar and Turtwig!

Mario and Luigi are rushing to Lake Verity.

Luigi: Well, so much for a peaceful day.

Mario: Yeah, just think what’s happening in our world.

Meanwhile on Plit…

The Koopalings are pushing Lucas and Tom to their castle.

Lucas: Are you sure these things are Pokémon?

Tom: What else could they be? But now that I have a picture of ‘em, we can sell it for money!

Lucas: If we ever get free.

The Koopalings bring Tom and Lucas to Bowser’s throne room. Bowser grins evilly as Ludwig explains about the Marios and why Tom and Lucas are with them.

Tom: (looking at Bowser Jr) Is that big guy what you evolve into?

Junior: ?

Tom takes a picture of Bowser.

Back in the Sinnoh Region…

Mario and Luigi finally reach Lake Verity. Luigi collapses from exhaustion.

Mario: Luigi, we didn’t even run that far.

Luigi: (muffled) I don’t care. I like it down here. I’ll just stay here until you find a way to get us back home, thank you very much.

Mario: Oh boy.

Mario sees a man and a little girl. The man is wearing a white coat and has a gray beard. The girl looks like she’s about 10 years old, is wearing pink boots, a white hat with a strange, pink symbol on it, and is carrying a large bag.

Mario: Luigi, look!

Luigi lifts his face up. He springs to his feet when he see the people.

Luigi: Who are they?

Mario: I don’t know.

Man: Well, there’s nothing here.

Girl: Too bad.

Man: Well, let’s get back to the lab.

Girl: Right, Professor!

The man and girl head in the direction of Mario and Luigi. Mario and Luigi step out of their way and they leave through the trees.

Luigi: That was weird.

Mario nods. He and Luigi head over to the spot where the man and girl were.

Luigi: Mario, they left a briefcase here.

Mario: That’s odd.

Mario picks up the briefcase. Suddenly, something swoops down from the sky. It zooms right by the Mario Brothers.

Luigi: Ahh!!!!!

Luigi starts running in circles. The thing swoops down and strikes his head. He falls down. He lifts his head and sees two birds hovering over the ground.

Luigi: Birds?

Luigi gets up.

Luigi: It was just a couple of birds.

Mario and Luigi get closer to the birds. The birds get on their heads and start pecking and flapping their wings. Peck! Peck! Peck!

Luigi: Ouch! Mario! Ouch! Open the briefcase! Owww!!! There might be something- ouch- that can help us! Ow!

Mario slaps the bird away. It flies over near the bird on Luigi’s head and starts pecking him too.

Luigi: Ahh!!!

Mario quickly opens the briefcase. Beads of sweat start rolling down his face as he panics about Luigi. Without thinking, he grabs a strange-looking ball from inside the suitcase and tosses it to Luigi.

Mario: Catch, Luigi!

Luigi catches the ball and starts swatting at the birds with it, missing them every time and instead hitting his head by accident. Mario grabs another ball and starts swatting at the birds.

Mario: Take this! And that!

Luigi: Ow! Do I have to? OW!!! 'CAUSE YOU'RE HURTING ME!!!

Mario: Oh, sorry!

Mario sees a button on the ball and presses it. It opens and a little chimp with a flame on its bottom jumps out.

Mario: Neat! Maybe it can help! Uh… Attack!

The chimp looks at Mario. Then it looks at the birds. It rushes over to Luigi and jumps up. It scratches the birds with sharp claws. The chimp lands on the ground by Luigi’s feet. The birds jump off of Luigi and stare angrily at the chimp. The chimp backs away as the birds get closer.

Mario: Press the button on the ball, Luigi!

Luigi does so and a turtle with a twig attached to its head jumps out.

Luigi: Uh… Attack?

The turtle tackles the birds. The birds fall to the ground.

Mario: Attack!

The chimp scratches the birds.

Luigi: Attack!

The turtle once again tackles the birds. The birds growl cutely. The chimp scratches them but they don’t receive as much damage. The birds tackle the chimp and turtle. They keep tackling and the chimp and turtle go flying in all directions. The chimp and turtle land and the birds stop attacking. The chimp and turtle are injured all over. They struggle to stand up.

Mario: Come on! Don’t give up! Just one more attack!

The chimp looks at Mario and nods. It rushes to the birds.

Luigi: You can do it! Don’t give up!

The turtle looks at Luigi and nods. It charges at the birds. The chimp scratches one bird and the turtle tackles the other. The two birds collide when they collapse on the ground. The chimp and turtle jump up and down clapping their hands over their heads. Er… well, I guess the turtle claps its front legs. He claps his something.

???: Are you sure that’s where it is?

????: Positive!

Mario and Luigi press the buttons on the balls and the chimp and turtle are beamed into them. The girl from earlier arrives and closes the briefcase. Mario and Luigi hold the balls behind their backs. Luigi whistles innocently but Mario elbows him, making him stop. The girl looks at Mario and Luigi and then at the birds on the ground.

Girl: Uh oh. You didn’t use the Pokémon in the briefcase, did you?

Luigi: The what?

Girl: Oh, he’s not going to like this.

The girl rushes off.

Mario: What was that all about?

Luigi: I don’t know.
