Blake slowly, groggily awoke in what looked to be a grassy field of some sort. Oddly enough, the trees surrounding him seemed a lot taller than the mage remembered -- even the blades of grass dwarfed his entire form! Had he somehow been shrunken down?

Last he recalled, Blake had been in his dorm room, watching the Pokemon anime series on his laptop (he wasn't sure which episode off the top of his head), when his spellbook started to leak out magical energy that quickly zapped him in the back and knocked him unconscious.

"Holy..." Blake realized. "I've been shrunken and teleported into the Pokemon anime!"

Blake turned around to see a titanic pair of black boots right in front of him! Peering up further, he was able to notice a white skirt, a midriff-baring top in the same shade, and a giantess's staring face with magenta hair. This was none other than Jessie, a prominent member of the villainous Team Rocket!

"Is that...a bug?!" Jessie exclaimed. "Or a tiny person?"

Despite his worry that he might be "recruited" into the evil organization, Blake figured that he'd rather not be reduced to a lifeless pulp under Jessie's heel. "Yes, I'm a person! My name is Blake!"

As suspicious as Jessie was about how a human could wind up smaller than a blade of grass, she was also very aware that insects didn't speak. "Hmm...you know, Blake, I'm not sure how you'd benefit Team Rocket in the long run. But maybe I could find some use for you! My name is Jessie, and you belong to me now!"

Uh oh...maybe letting himself be Team Rocket's tiny tool wasn't such a good idea after all. Perhaps Jessie would show Blake some mercy in his time of need? "A-alright...what do you have in mind for me?"

Jessie's answer was swift...
