Squirtle Squad: Difference between revisions

Their first appearance was ''[[EP012|Here Comes the Squirtle Squad]]''. They used to run wild in a small town in Kanto stealing things, writing graffiti and causing trouble for travelers in the area. Once they were tricked by {{MTR}} of [[Team Rocket]], who made a deal for them to help himself, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] capture [[Ash's Pikachu]]. While chasing it, Pikachu sustained a nasty injury from a {{p|Goldeen}}. In order to help Pikachu recover, {{Ash}} convinced the Squirtle Squad to allow him to obtain a [[Super Potion]]; however, if he didn't return by noon the next day, they would kill Misty (in the dub, they threatened to dye her hair purple). By the time Ash returned, Team Rocket had arrived and decided to bomb the Squirtle Squad, causing a forest fire. Everyone went to find cover in the Squirtle Squad's cave, but, [[Ash's Squirtle|the leader of the Squirtle Squad]] was stuck on its back, forcing Ash to go back to help it. Working together with Ash, the Squirtle Squad defeated Team Rocket and put out the fire; they were given the title of "Town Fire Fighters," for their good work by [[Officer Jenny]]. However, the leader of the Squirtle Squad decided that it would rather travel with Ash; Ash's newly-acquired Squirtle wanted to repay him for saving its life by joining Ash's team.
