Amazing! Eternatus gave us a bonus round! [showing his Dynamax band glowing.]
Huh? [checks his Dynamax band and it is also glowing.] Yeah. My Dynamax band.
Pika? [What does that mean?]
I hope you're watching, Eternatus. Charizard return! [recalls his Charizard]
Cinderace, return. [recalls Cinderace] You were the best. Great job Gigantamaxing. Alright, Ash! This will decide it! [readies Charizard] It's time to use our aces!
Yeah! Partner vs partner!
You did very well drive someone like me this far! You're helping me become stronger than ever! So, until the last move, I'd say we get even more fired up!
[roars] [Come and get it!]
Pika! [Alright, I will!]
Thanks to you, we've gotten a whole lot stronger than before, Leon. This battle is the peak of all adventures Pikachu and I have had up until this point. That's why we're gonna win!
[During this dialogue, we see Professor Oak, Delia, Tracey and Ash's reserves still watching. The scene cuts to Misty at her gym watching the show (Misty had gym duties which is why she didn't show up at Wyndon). We see Brock, Cilan and Alexa watching (Cilan must have introduced Alexa to Brock). On top of that, Brock is working as a doctor, Cilan has connoisseur duties and Alexa is doing journalism which is why they also didn't appear at Wyndon. The scene cuts to Serena, Lisia, along with...May and Max! Keep in mind that May's Japanese voice actor had retired because of vocal problems and Max's Japanese voice actor retired from the business, which is why they don't have any lines. It's great that the two get to appear in a cameo and become friends with Serena. Also, all of them have performance completely scheduled unlike Dawn who performs on her own time.]
[enters the centre's wing] Look like Pikachu is feeling better. [His Charizard takes a look inside]
Leon!
Pika! [Hey there!]
It was a good battle. Lots of fun too.
I've feel the exact same way.
It made me think back my very first Pokémon battle. A great time. [The flashback revealed that Leon's Charmander lost to a Rookidee owned by Sonia herself. Leon gets upset about this loss.] Yet frustrated. Of course, that's what a Pokémon battle really is. From now on, I'm just another challenger. I'll have lots of battles and become even stronger.
Me too! I want to have tons of battles!
[extends his hand] Let's battle again sometime.
[accepts Leon's handshake] You got it! [Pikachu delivers a friendly headbutt to Charizard]
It's getting to be about time for the award ceremony, Ash!
Hey Leon, you're coming too, right?
[While camping out with Grookey, Cinderace, Ash, Pikachu, Chloe, and Eevee, Goh rises from his chair and looks at Ash, preparing to come clean about traveling on his own]
Hey, Ash?
Hm? [Chloe looks at the duo] What's up, Goh?
[Goh starts to hesitate, then smiles, unwilling to leave Ash for the sake of their friendship]
Huh?
No, it's really nothing. I'm sorry.
Okay.
[looking at the starry night] The stars are really pretty tonight, you know?
[also rising from his chair] Goh?
Huh?
I'm taking another journey. [Both Goh and Chloe gasped in shock at what Ash just said] I'll be heading out with Pikachu, of course.
Pika.
[Logs burning in the fire begin to tumble still, as Goh looks down, feeling betrayed by Ash's intention to continue his journey without him]
[distraught] You're heading out... without... talking about it?
[looking surprised] Huh?
And you're doing it... without asking anybody?!
Hey, Goh?
So we weren't... GOOD FRIENDS AFTER ALL!!! [tearfully running away from the camp with Grookey and Cinderace, taking his bag with him] WE'RE THROUGH!!!
Cinde!
[Ash and Pikachu are left stunned and perplexed by Goh's reaction]
The thing is... Goh is conflicted.
About what?
Taking his own journey.
[gasps] Conflicted, huh?
But he just couldn't decide all by himself. He thought that would betray your friendship. [taking her bag with her] Maybe you didn't realize how much you mean to him. You're the first real friend he's made.
[Chloe leaves the camp with Eevee in search for Goh, while Ash and Pikachu sees them off before going to find Goh as well]
Goh!
[Both Ash and Pikachu reach a fork in the road. Which route to take?]
So which one should we take?
Pika. [Let's decide] [Ash finds a nearby stick near one of the tree roots.]
Right. This'll decide. How about we go where the leaves point? [He tosses the stick in to the air allowing Pikachu to swat it with his tail. The stick spins into the air for a bit before landing and pointing towards the left.] To the left! [The two start, only for Ash to turn around. Are you for real, Ash?] I thought so but I want to go the other way. It just sort of hit me. [Pikachu retaliates by zapping Ash's hat off.]
Thanks for your patience. Here's some sandwiches and a dish of some special Pokémon food.
Wow! Time to dig in!
The yummiest!
The best!
But I feel like I've tasted something like this before.
I was just thinking the exact same thing.
These are the most delicious things I've had. [At this point, Kathy is carrying a couple drinks on a tray and passing by hearing the two's conversations]
Why thank you. Mr. Chef, you're being praised! Come on out!
Ah ha. Thank you so much. [What on earth are you doing here?! Shouldn't you be working as a doctor?]
Hey, it's Brock!
Ash! Misty! [Pikachu jumps onto Brock's shoulder]
Pikachu! [Hello again, Brock!]
Nice to see you, Pikachu.
Brock, so what are you doing here?
What does it look like? I've taken a job here as the restaurant's head chef, of course. [Oh, you have got to be kidding the fans!]
But you're a Pokémon doctor!
I chose this! I'm devoting my life to helping her all she does.
[A voice off-camera recognizes Ash. Could it be...]
Huh? Ash? [Both Ash and Misty turn their attention to Ash's former Unova companion]
Cilan!
It really is you! [Ash and Cilan shake hands]
Long time!
You're the one who gave Ash that lure.
Meet my good friend from a bunch of journeys. You'll love her!
I am Cerulean Gym Leader, Misty, with beauty known around the world!
But of course. A sensational sister of Cerulean City. [Fans think only Daisy deserves the title, not Lily and Violet.]
They're my three older sisters.
Sisters? So Sensational sisters and a side of weak tea...
WEAK TEA?! ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A FIGHT?!
Uhhh...that wasn't what I meant.
With this, I've discovered I'm still going to need a lot more experience. So, I'll travel with Ash and crew and train up my heart the right way. [Now, that's what fans are talking about. Don't give up on your doctor job.]
Wow, another good friend is coming along.
That means we'll have great food!
Yeah and meals Brock and Cilan make are totally awesome.
As much as I appreciate the compliments, I'm on my own from here.
Huh? You're not travelling with us?
Ingo and Emmett will be holding an event to unveil a brand new train car and I really have to be there! There will be a new lunchbox!
Really? Then let's meet up again!
And best wishes! Take good care!
Best wishes for a great journey!
Guys, I think that Beartic may be having trouble using its Ice type powers.
Really? It made some pretty good ice pillars.
That isn't what Beartic intended to do. It's strange, but it only seems to be freezing things when it's startled or scared.
[As the Squirtle Squad leave for another trip on firefighting business, a large crowd is running towards Ash and the gang. Wait a second...]
Hey, wait for us!
They're Squirtle's fans! [True, but they're not here for Squirtle...]
That's popularity.
I knew it! It's Ash the Champion! [Hey, Ash is finally acknowledged as the World Champion!]
Oh, you mean me?
Pika. [Yes, you.]
We sure have a popular one right here.
[The crowd surrounds Ash asking for his autographs. This might take a while...]
Pika! Pika! [Hey, take it easy!]
Why are they doing this to us?!
[Note: This is the last episode where Ash is the main protagonist. However, it is confirmed that Ash will be back as a guest character in the future. The writers still have to fix Ash's reserves as they owe him a Meganium, Typhlosion, Feraligatr, Crawdaunt, Floatzel, Garchomp, Samurott, Serperior, Emboar, Scrafty, Gigalith and Seismitoad, as well as give Ash new mons that were missed opportunities (Best examples are: Beartic, Houndoom, Grumpig, Flygon, Rapidash, Tyranitar, Hippowdon, Weavile, Sableye, Abomasnow, Fearow, Magnezone, Bastiodon, Scolipede, Whimsicott, Volcarona, Archeops, Hatterene, Vivillon, Dragapult, Dragalge, Mantine, Beedrill, Honchkrow, Pyroar, Trevenant, Golisopod, and Passimian)]
Ash! Pikachu!
Good morning, Tracey!
Pikachu. [Morning, Marill.]
Ma-marill [Hi, Pikachu.]
Where are you going?
I got to run an errand for the Professor, so I'll be out for a while. Take over while I'm gone.
Sure. Leave it to me. Have Charmander, Squirtle and Bulbasaur arrived? The Professor said I could see them before they go to new trainers.
They've arrived a while ago. The Professor will be giving them checkups.
Gotta see that! Pikachu, let's go! [Both Ash and Pikachu head to the lab]
Well, Marill. Let's be on our way too.
Hey thanks for finding Charmander. I'm the one who grabbed these three guys to the lab.
Oh really, that was you? Lucky you, huh? You got to go explore!
Heading out already?
I may not look it, but I'm pretty busy. Oh hey, Ash. I still haven't mentioned it yet. Congratulations on being champ.
Uhhh...thanks a lot, Gary.
So, now that you're the Champion, just how close are you to becoming a Pokémon Master? [Ash is confused, but Gary has faith that Ash will figure it out.] Later. [leaves the lab with his Umbreon.]
[noticing his Pidgeot that he released at the end of the Indigo League run. Took you long enough, writers.] Pidgeot! You saved us!
What's going on?
I think the twerp's Pidgeotto evolved. [The Rocket gang freak out by this revelation]
