James quotes from Pokémon

Get your capturing claws off of my styler!

It's MY styler, you petty thieves!

I need to take a nap. Tussling twerps exhaust me.

I’d take a pause for the cause. [opens a can of soda and drinks it]

Stop, Jess!

[screams] I'm a profit guzzler!

Well, since we know you, we'll recharge ya triple.

Bingo! My favorite bling!

[laughs] Is it gold? Silver? Platinum?

Rubies or sapphires? Although diamonds and pearls rock too!

It's not quite that black and white.

Hey, that's my bottlecap!

You may have lost a bottlecap but you've gained your life!

Yeah, word up.

That was...my life.

Pansage! [Uses Bullet Seed on one of the chopper's hooks]

Pikachu

Pikachu! [Uses Thunderbolt on the other hook]

What a waste of energy.

They just don't know when to quit, do they?

Huh? What's that? [Sees Ash, Iris, Cilan, Ingo and Emmet on the crew car which is being powered by Emmet's Eelektross] The twerps!

[outraged] Ugh! Oh, great. [The camera cuts to the chopper's hooks which are about to capture our heroes' Pokémon as Pikachu and Pansage try to destroy them] Dr Zager, twerps!

[off camera] Secure that car, quickly!

Quiet! This delicate operation requires finesse.

Iris

Hang on, guys, we're here!

Iris

They'll be captured!

We've got to do something fast!

[to Ingo and Emmet] I'm going to get on that train.

But, Ash, that's too dangerous.

You could be hurt.

They've tried so hard, I've got to try and do something!

Iris

All of our Pokémon are depending on us!

And I'm going too!

But, wait...!

Ingo, I completely understand what these kids are feeling. We're dedicated to protect the subway system, they're dedicated to protect their Pokémon, it's the same thing.

I know exactly what you mean. And I think my partner will be able to help as well. Chandelure, all aboard! [Sends out Chandelure]

Chandelure.

Ingo, the lustre your Chandelure produces is simply beautiful!

Chandelure - the Luring Pokémon and the evolved form of Lampent. Chandelure uses its dancing flames to hypnotise opponents.

Chandelure, use Psychic! Get everyone on the other subway car!

Chandelure! [Uses Psychic on Cilan, Ash and Iris]

Whoa!

And with such a warm, gentle glow!

Full speed ahead! [Points to the car on the other side of the railway tracks]]

Everybody all right?

Pikachu

Pika-pi! [Jumps into Ash's arms]

I'm sorry we took so long.

Pikachu

Pikachu!

Iris

Wow, you're okay!

Axew!

Everyone's all right. Great!

Small group of people? We're a small group.

Well if you mean us, why didn't it have any effect?!

[still brainwashed by the Beheeyem] I'm afraid idiots are hard to hypnotize.

IDIOTS?!?! GRRRR....

One second. What were we attempting to convey to all of you is that gifted people are hard to hypnotize.

I see. So you're implying we're geniuses?

Mmmm. Whatever you say.

[glad with the others] Now we're getting to the truth of the matter!

Glad we got that straight.

Emolga, you're such a brave and strong Pokémon. I think you should join Team Rocket.

Your fortitude has pre-qualified you to become a team member free of charge.

Act now and you'll get three gourmet meals each and every day along with all the naps you want to take anytime you want to take them! We'll even throw in a Rocket retirement plan.

We have those?

Last time I checked.

What do you say?

Emol... [Let me see...]

[During Emolga's fantasy] Team Rocket and Emolga blasts off at the speed of light!

[During Emolga's fantasy] Surrender now, or prepare for a quadruple fight!

[During Emolga's fantasy] Meowth, that's right!

Iris

[During Emolga's fantasy] Emolga, how could you?!

Emol-Emol! [Count me in!]

Emolga says it'd be glad to be part of the team.

[voiceover] Summer of Discovery!

As we thought, the twerps did make the scene.

We hit that on the head. With the professor as host, their appearance was a must.

Let's take it slow. And at the right time, we'll whisk all their Pokémon away in one fair swoop.

Working to earn everyone's trust is a must.

YOU! [Team Rocket turn back to her]

Ah, Madame Catherine, you're right on time.

We're just getting our gourmet preparations underway now!

Good, no skimping, please. Keep in mind, Augustine's Trainers have giant appetites and just love to eat. Prepare a ton of food at least.

[saluting] Yes, ma'am!

And if they really like which you all cook, there might just be a little rice in store.

Ahhh! Yummy! [They bow their heads]

And that's what happened.

Mmmm. Wow! Great! What a marvellous experience. You met Mega Lucario?

Mega Evolution is as cool as it gets.

[voiceover] Everything powers up, including the strength of their moves. It's awesome how strong they get.

I wish I could've seen it too. So I guess you'll be battling Korrina and that powerful Mega Lucario at the Shalour Gym soon?

You bet! The stronger my opponent is, the more fired up I get. I'm gonna win that Gym badge for sure.

Pikachu

Pika.

Well, I hope your stay here will be useful and marvellous at the same time.

Thanks.

This is the cabin you'll be staying in.

[with stars in her eyes] Mmmm, it's the cutest!

Everyone will be split into teams. As you can see, your team is called "Team Froakie".

Team Froakie, huh? Cool.

'Kay, I call this bed.

Ne ne ne ne.

Serena

Oh!

Speaking of summer camp, does this bring back any memories of when you two first met each other?

Yeah, it does. Let's make it as much fun as when we were kids.

Serena

It's a deal.

Hurry up! Give it back! The Champion's notebook is ours!

Champion?!

It isn't his! This notebook belongs to me!

Don't act so twerpish. It's signed by the Champion himself and you can be sure that the two of us will live happily ever after.

This is an autograph photo I got from Steven Stone.

YOU GOT THAT DUDE'S AUTOGRAPH?!

No joke?!

Honestly...[with her dream of marrying Steven Stone shattered]...NO! THE GOOD LIFE LEFT!

All of that wisdom down the drain!

Next time, don't drop something so confusing!

Keep your book, we'll take your Pokémon!

[voiceover] Alola, Kanto!

Pikachu

[happy] Pika!

Here we are!

Hope we get to see a Vileplume.

Horsea and Seadra, too.

[weakly] Vul.

Oh, no. Something wrong, Snowy?

[unhappy] Vul!

Don't you feel well?

[weakly] Vul... [Lillie picks it up]

Poor dear... Now what should I do?

Vul.

Excuse me. Your Vulpix...

Huh?

Would you mind if I examine it? See, I'm actually studying to become a Pokémon doctor.

That would be great. We got off the plane, when all of a sudden...

Leave it to me. [Kneels down to attend to Snowy]

Ugh, this is so depressing.

Going through all this to get to headquarters.

[angrily] So why do we have to take orders from that bob-cut-and-glasses gal, anyway?

We'll get more lectures than all of my school years combined.

[to Matori who is inside a hexagonal bubble] Go away. Go away. GO AWAY!

Hey, no sweat. If we give Loser Locks this honey malasada, she's sure to get in a good mood. [disappointedly agrees] Yeah, like that's gonna work.

[weakly] Vul.

Hmm...

Vul?

Hm! [Pets Snowy]

Vul!

Just as I suspected. Just a little air sickness.

Oh, thank you very much.

I wonder what's keeping Lillie.

Hm?

Huh? Whoa! Is that Brock?!

Huh?

[Turns to Ash] Huh?

[runs to Brock with Pikachu] Heyyy! Brock!

[lovestruck] Whoa! [Runs past Ash and Pikachu causing them to spin]

Whoa!

Ahh... Such a lovely flight attendant in all her radiance. [Takes out a bouquet of flowers] It would be paradise if we flew the lovely skies together! Chasing clouds with you... Soaring... on love's wings. [Gets pulled by the ear by someone's hand] Ow-ow-ow-ow-ow-OW!

All right. I come all the way to pick you up at the airport, and this is the thanks I get?!

Ha! Misty!

[releases her grip and waves to Ash] Hey Ash! How have you been doing?

Ha!

Pikachu

Pika-pika! [Jumps into Misty's arms]

Long time, no see, Pikachu!

Pikachu

Pi?

Huh? [They turn to the Altar of the Sunne]

What's that?

Huh? Oh, right! The Altar of the Sunne.

Does that mean it's Solgaleo? [The beam goes up into the sky, making everyone cover their eyes due to the brightness, except Gladion] It must be.

What's happening to Nebby?

It's Solgaleo!

Pikachu

Pika!

Nebby turned into Solgaleo?

Unbelievable?

This is a massive discovery! I can't believe it! Nebby evolved two times, and now it's none other than the legendary Alolan Pokémon Solgaleo! Information updated, information updated!

Now that's some fancy schmancy evolution.

Wait, I've seen that. [Looks inside his book] That Pokémon is a legend in the Alola region. It's Solgaleo.

Yeah? Where's all that talk of it being an Alolan Koffing?

Right. Koffing this and Koffing that.

Well, the thing is...

We just had to catch Proto-Koffing in order to save a face.

The thing is...

You blew it! Proto-Koffing and Nano-Koffing are phoney baloney Koffing.

Wobbuffet! [Jumps off]

Right, and so are you!

Wobbuffet! [Jumps off]

Say, this weather today...

[squeals]

I found myself on the mercy of the court.

Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah!

Bing, ba-da-boom. That baby's big.

Wobba.

What a fine specimen.

Hold on.

Hey, look, it's the twerps.

And they're playing dress up today.

[Watching the Ultra Guardians] What's with those brats?! Complete with their ridiculous Ride Pokémon. I could just scream.

What is that thing?

[off camera] It looks like a big bamboo.

[off camera] Or a swollen wall hanging.

Let's get to it.

Mhm, let her rip.

All right. Go, Beast ball! [Throws an Ultra Ball which tries to capture Celesteela, but it doesn't work]

It didn't work.

All right, again! [Throws an Ultra Ball which tries to capture Celesteela, but that doesn't work either] Not good.

But why?

Hmm. Maybe we can't catch it because it grew roots.

Let me check this out. [Scans Celesteela with his tablet and sees the results] Argh! Like Professor Burnett said, there's an incredible amount of gas inside.

We've got to do something before its rocket launches!

You heard that, too, right?

Clear as a bell.

That means we're looking at a rocket Pokémon.

Which no self-respecting Team Rocket member should be without.

That would be us, without a doubt.

There's nothing like a rocket Pokémon to make us scream and shout!

Wobba, wobba!

The Battle Royal, our main event, is down to just two competitors.

With Mr Electric and his partner, Electivire.

Versus the Masked Royal and his Incineroar.

Fire Jameston's the name, calling the play-by-play. I'm joined by commentators Freezer Jessip and Thunder Meowtaire, and we're coming to you 100% live and unedited!

Incineroar, use Cross Chop! [His Incineroar does as he says and punches Mr Electric's Electivire]

Gadzooks! Incineroar's Cross Chop dished up some damage.

Way to go, Incineroar!

That's the way it's done!

[commentating on TV] It now appears that Mr. Electric has grabbed Incineroar's leg.

Huh?

So who is that Mr Electric anyway?

Well, that Mr Electric only happens to be a member of the Revengers.

Who are the Revengers?

The Revengers are a team, a team of really bad guys who always go around breaking all the rules.

And that's why my support is fully behind the Masked Royal. Right makes might.

We all know you can do it. Go, Masked Royal and Incineroar! Huh? [Sees Lana, Popplio, Mallow and Steenee who are among the audience at the Battle Royal Dome] Ah!

That's Lana and Mallow.

Oh, wow. Seeing it right there is so great.

Huh?

[commentating on TV] Egad! Electivire's set to clobber Incineroar from behind. One pop and Electrivire is up, up and away.

Now use Throat Chop!

Zowie!

Dat's da move dat wins everytime!

Ha-ha, ha-ha.

It seems that the team of Mad Magmar and Magmortar has rushed in.

So! Is this the end?!

The team of Mr Electric and Electivire has been DQ'd with the illegal assist.

Rotom, what just happened?

Magmortar had no right to enter the ring, so the team of Mr Electric and Electrivire are disqualified.

I'm sure the Masked Royal didn't want to win the match like that.

[voiceover] Thank you Alola! The Journey Continues!

Ahhhhh! [Bewear stuffs honey in their mouths, with Wobbuffet going first, then James, Jessie, and finally Meowth] YUMMY!

Marea? [Feeds Stufful and Mimikyu with some honey from her tentacle] Marea! [The R capsule rings] Mar?

It's headquarters!

Answer it later.

Huh?

Puh-lease! Who wants to see that bob-cut glasses goon gal while we eat?

Or that annoying Alolan Meowth big mouth?

Yes, but still...

Wait! Mimikyu!

Well, good morning, team.

Yipes! It's the Boss! [They stand up to Giovanni]

We bid you an extra-good morning!

I'll get to the point. I'm ordering you all back to headquarters.

Hooray! We're all going back to headquarters! [Everyone is horrified] Headquarters?!

You mean...

Where YOU are?!

Wobbu-wobbu?! (As in, back in Kanto?!)

Giovanni is looking forward to seeing all the fruits from your labour from your time in Alola.

Meowth, Meowth, Meowth, Meowth, Meowth. (Don't be late and let us down)

[angrily] If I had fruits, I'd throw 'em at YOU! [The camera cuts to inside Team Rocket's headquarters] You no-talent LUMP!

Stop that. It's unsightly.

Just put a cork in it! [Takes Meowth away from the R capsule]

Yes, sir!

Now what? We need Alolan product.

True, and fast.

[Racing up to Stufful] Marean. Mareanie.

Stufful.

Mareanie.

Stufful! [Hugs Mimikyu]

Rean! [Bewear strokes her on the head] Mar?

Bewe.

Reanie!

[taking a bow] Thank you for your hospitality.

DON'T BREAK US LIKE A WALNUT!

We're too young to get squished! [Fortunately, Bewear gives them a gentle hug]

Bewear. [I'll miss you guys.]

You like us!

Okay, we hate to eat and run but...[the rest of the gang joins in]...later!

Bewear. Bewear-wear. [Are you guys heading to Kanto?]

Say, what? We're headed to Kanto? Yeah, but why are you asking?

[grabs the balloon and hurls them into the sky like a hammer] Weeaarr!! Weeaarr!! [Hang on! Goodbye friends!]
