[Ash's plane hits the ground, after which he exits with confidence.]
[jumping onto Ash's shoulder] Pika! Pika-pika!
AAsh
Hm. [he clears his throat.] Heyyyy, Kalos Region! Ash from Pallet Town is finally here!
What's with all the yelling?
AAsh
Just saying hi-ya to the Kalos Region, and as soon as I walk down these steps, we'll finally be here! Huh?
[Two Spritzee fly in front of Ash and Alexa, distracting him with excitement.]
AAsh
Ah! Never seen those Pokémon before! [In the midst of his fascination, he misses the step, causing him to tumble all the way down to the bottom! He's lucky he didn't break anything...]
AAsh
[Grunts as he regains consciousness, laughing off his blunder] Yeah, I'm okay.
AAsh
Hello? Professor Sycamore! Are you here?!
ASProfessor Augustine Sycamore
[arrives and yawns a bit] Coming. [notices the injured Froakie] Huh?
AAsh
Are you the Professor?
AAsh
You know this Froakie, Professor?
I sure do. Sophie, come quick! We've been so worried about you. Your trainer has been in recent contact with us. [Sophie arrives and Professor Sycamore hands Froakie over] Froakie needs help.
SSophie
Right! [rushes to the medical bay with Froakie in hand]
Here we go...Ash, do you...remember me?
Think back to when you went to camp in Pallet Town. I did too. That's where we met.
That's right! We met at Professor Oak's Pokemon summer camp!
AAsh
Hey, I remember that camp!
AAsh
Yeah, of course! I went to it!
I know! And that's because I went to that camp as well!
AAsh
[trying to remember her] Can't say I remember you...
[lightens up her mood] That's okay Ash! For now, you need to concentrate on your training. You can remember me later.
[Pikachu defeats Surskit, and Viola recalls her downed Surskit]
AAsh
Pikachu, return! [Pikachu does so]
What? You're done battling with Pikachu?
AAsh
Fletchling wants a rematch against Vivillon too.
[Fletchling gets put to sleep by Vivillon's Sleep Powder and falls to the ground. Fletchling may have adapted to Vivillon's other attacks, but certainly not this one!]
Excellent! Picture perfect! Vivillon, Solar Beam!
AAsh
Oh no! Fletchling! [Fletchling falls to the ground defeated by the attack. So much for Fletchling's rematch...]
Pikachu can't beat my Vivillon in that state. I'm afraid you're going to have to wait longer for your badge.
AAsh
Yeah, well there's no way we're giving up! That's not what we're about! We'll keep on battling until the very end!
[Serena remembers, in a flashback of young Ash saying "Don't give up until it's over!"]
I admire your persistence, but this is the end. Gust, one more time!
So, why did you want to go on a journey, Serena?
[reaches into her pocket and pulls out a blue handkerchief, before walking over to Ash] I wanted to give this back to you. It's yours. Ash, remember when we were talking about Professor Oak's Pokemon Summer Camp back when we were younger?
Well, you let me borrow this way back then.
[A flashback is shown, when a younger Serena was lost in the woods...]
Where is everybody? Where did you all go? Augh! [a Poliwag jumps out of a bush scaring her, causing her to fall and hurt her leg] I knew I didn't want to come to camp. I knew it. Mommy! [starts crying]
[Seconds later, someone comes out of the same bushes. It is young Ash.]
AAsh
Poliwag? Hey, are you alright? Hi, I'm Ash. Who are you? What's wrong?
AAsh
Don't worry. See this? [draws out a blue handkerchief] This will make you better. [He wraps it around her right leg] All done. Now watch this. Feel better, feel better right away!
Ow! It still hurts! I can't stand up!
AAsh
[reaches his hand out to Serena] Don't give up until it's over, okay? Come on! [Serena grabs Ash's hand. As he helps her get back on her feet, she falls into him, almost like a hug. Serena starts blushing a bit.] There you go! [snickers a bit] I think we should be getting back to the campsite, okay? Come on. [Ash still holding Serena's hand leads her out of the forest. Serena still staring in awe and still blushing.]
[Note: Did Ash knew, at the time, he had met his future Kalos companion and love interest? No he did not as Serena did not mention her name to him. This is why he does not remember her when the two encountered each other again at Santalune City]
[As the episode begins, we see Ash being challenged by a female trainer named Penelope]
If two trainers' eye happen to meet, the rule is they have a battle.
AAsh
Yeah, I agree. I'm Ash and this is my friend Pikachu.
Pikacha! [Nice to meet you!]
Uhhh...is that really a rule?
I'm not so sure it is a hard and fast rule, but it is pretty standard stuff.
My name is Penelope. Sylveon, come on out! [summons Sylveon into battle]
AAsh
[examining Sylveon] It kinda looks like Espeon. [He whips out his Pokedex]
KPKalos Pokedex
Sylveon, the Intertwining Pokémon and an evolved form of Eevee. Sylveon affectionately wraps its ribbon-like feelers around its Trainer's arm as they walk together.
AAsh
Wow, so it is an evolved form of Eevee after all.
Hey Ash, did you know that Sylveon is a Fairy-type Pokemon?
AAsh
No. Fairy-type? [Note: In this episode, Ash learns about Fairy-types]
Yeah, Dedenne is a Fairy-type too!
[At the kindergarten playground, Penelope had just led Ash and company through the entrance.]
AAsh
Look at all the kids...
This looks like some sort of kindergarten class. Are you a teacher here?
Yes. Did everybody behave while I was out?
You see, my Sylveon and I go out into the fields and forests everyday and the two of us make friends with wild Pokemon and we bring them back here with us.
HTHead Teacher
We do this so the children can meet and learn all about them.
AAsh
You could have told us that right from the start. Right buddy?
Oh, so that's why Penelope wanted Ash to come here with her. [You thought Penelope was going to ask Ash out on a date, Serena?]
[Clemont's No-Hard-Feelings-Fair-and-Square Lottery Device picks Ash and Serena as winners to ride the submarine]
Ne-ne-ne! [Way to go, Clemont!]
Well, science determined our fate fair and square. So, no hard feelings...[Both Clemont and Bonnie's pictures fall off the losing arrow]
