Scenes with Pikachu 205
[The title card comes up]
[voiceover] Mutiny in the Bounty!
[The episode opens with Ash, Dawn and Brock walking up a hill]
Continuing their journey to Floaroma Town, and Dawn's next Pokémon contest, our heroes are about to be treated to a most amazing sight.
[The sight turns out to be a house with a cone on top and a field full of flowers]
Whoa! What a beautiful field of flowers!
Yeah, and in the bright sunlight, they look like they're on fire!
PikachuPika, Pika!
[Then, a Salamence flies above them]
[Dawn scans the Salamence with her Pokédex]
DSDawn's Pokédex
Salamence, the Dragon Pokémon. As a result of a powerful desire to fly, Salamence were able to trigger the cells in their body and cause them to grow wings.
[We see someone on the Salamence's back]
[Then we see a girl named Melodi and her Gardevoir tending to some flowers]
Wow. Someday these little flowers will bloom like crazy!
GGardevoir
[admiring] Gardevoir.
[Then the Salamence and its rider landed down in front of them]
[The rider jumps off the Salamence to reveal to be a woman]
HJHunter J
Target identified.
HJHunter J
Ariados! [takes her Pokeball] String shot! [tosses her Pokeball]
[Her Ariados pops out and fired its String Shot and Melodi screamed as she got tied to a tree]
[Ash, Dawn and Brock run to Melodi's house]
HJHunter J
I'll take Gardevoir. [she aims her wrist gun to Gardevoir]
[It uses Teleport to vanish]
HJHunter J
Using Teleport, eh? [she activates her goggles and looks around] Sensing Teleport location. [she got nothing till she spotted her target appearing] There we go. You should be grateful Gardevoir. Your beauty will be preserved for eternity! [she aims her gun as Gardevoir appears and then she fires]
[Gardevoir got hit]
[Gardevoir turned to stone]
HJHunter J
Mission accomplish. Transporting target now!
[Then a truck with six wheels came out of nowhere and drove to her location as a device platform came out of it and it went under the petrified Gardevoir and sealed in in a container and it was floated inside of the truck as it drives away]
[Ash, Dawn and Brock Arrived]
[Hunter J got on her Salamence with her Ariados and flew away]
I'm alright, but please help me get Gardevoir back!
Turtwig, return! [Returns Turtwig to its Poké Ball] You were just great. [Turns back to Gardenia]
[off camera] Gardenia's Turtwig didn't move around much, but when it did, it was fast. I'd say overall it was faster than Ash's Turtwig.
I'll show you fast. Gardenia, our battle isn't over just yet.
Okay, Staravia, I choose you! [Sends out Staravia]
I don't care how fast that Turtwig is, it can't match the speed of a flying Staravia.
[The camera cuts to Cheryl, Mothim, Brock, Dawn and Pikachu who are watching the battle from a log]
Flying-types do have the advantage over grass-types, but...
There's more than one way to win a battle.
Pikachu
Pika.
All right, Wing Attack, go!
SStaravia
Starrrravia! [Uses Wing Attack]
GSGardenia's Turtwig
Turrrtwig! [Dodges Staravia's Wing Attack]
Ah! Ugh! Come back around and use Wing Attack!
SStaravia
Starrrravia! [Uses Wing Attack, but Gardenia's Turtwig carries on dodging]
GGardenia
You know, my Turtwig may even be a good match for your Staravia's speed.
Hey, you've got to be kidding me! [The camera cuts to Turtwig who is watching out for Staravia's next Wing Attack] Is she serious?! [to Staravia] Okay, let's give 'em Aerial Ace right now!
There's no way her Turtwig's going to be able to outrun this dive-bomb.
SStaravia
Staravia! Starrrr... [Uses Aerial Ace, but Turtwig jumps up to avoid the attack] ...avia! [Crashes through a bush and screeches]
[Staravia manages to fly out of the bush and back into the battlefield]
GGardenia
Now, Turtwig, Leaf Storm!
GSGardenia's Turtwig
Turtwiiiiiig! [Uses Leaf Storm on Staravia, sending it into the trunk of a tree]
[Then, we see that Staravia has fainted]
GGardenia
Number One! I win!
Staravia, return! [Returns Staravia to its Poké Ball] You gave it a great shot, Staravia.
But Gardenia was running things the whole time.
CCheryl
I'm really sorry that you lost, Ash.
Wow, Gardenia's a tough one.
Oh, I never had a chance.
CCheryl
My name is Cheryl. That was some battle just now.
GGardenia
Thanks, Cheryl. [Notices Cheryl's Mothim] That's some Mothim you've got. [Mothim starts flying around her, making her giggle] Your moth tails tickle!
CCheryl
You shouldn't get too close to strangers, Mothim, dear.
[Meanwhole, Ash is talking about his recent loss]
First Turtwig loses and then Staravia. The Eterna Gym's going to be tough.
[Pikachu jumps on his left shoulder]
Pikachu
Pika, Pikachu!
You think? Special training, eh?
Pikachu
Pika, Pika!
Nice running! You'll be fine! [angrily] But after what you did, Team Rocket, you won't be!
Pikachu
Pika!
[shocked] Hey, no fair! Cacnea, come forth!
[Later, the sun is setting and outside the Hearthome City Stadium, Paul releases Chimchar]
Chimchar! Char... [Wait! Please...]
Paul? So, that's the end of all that special training?
Yeah, that's right. What's the point?
[Walking past Ash, Dawn and Brock] Obviously I need to get a new fire-type. [This is an obvious a foreshadow to his Magmar/Magmortar]
You're giving up Chimchar?
What happened to the two of you getting stronger together?
All of that progress, and you're throwing it away? [He, Ash and Dawn turn to Chimchar] Hm?
Oh...? [Walks sadly away from Ash and the others]
Pikachu
Pika, Pika... [He and Ash watch as Chimchar walks sadly away]
Hmm... [cheerfully] Hey, Chimchar, come with us!
Chim? [What do you want?]
[Ash, Pikachu and Turtwig go up to Chimchar]
Of course. We'll have a blast and work hard!
Pikachu
Pika, Pika! [Come join the crew!]
Turtwig, Turtwig! [There's room for you here!]
[Chimchar turns to Ash while Dawn and Brock watch]
The old saying goes - when one door closes, another door opens. Friends reach out to friends and a brand new opportunity is born. So, now with an invitation from our heroes to share their journey, just what lies in store for Chimchar?
[The title card comes up]
[voiceover] Smells Like Team Spirit!
[Ash is inviting Chimchar to join his team as Dawn, Piplup, Brock and Paul watch]
[The camera zooms in on Ash and cuts to Paul who is watching crossly]
Pikachu
Pika. Pika, Pika.
[The camera cuts to Chimchar and then fades to Ash. It then cuts to Dawn and Brock]
You see, the way you give it all you got is awesome. I'd love working with a tough Pokémon like you.
[To Ash and Chimchar] You deserve each other.
Why, that's an awful thing to say, Paul!
Chimchar and I are going to show Paul just how wrong he can be.
Chim? [The camera cuts to Ash and then, back to Chimchar] Char...
[Team Rocket are in their Meowth balloon]
Scary, but not too smart.
Spiritomb's as feisty as an Aura Guardian.
Every time we're close to plucking Pikachu, our eyes get too big.
Huh? [Sees Pikachu resting on the meadow below] Well, widen your eyes now.
[off camera] Pikachu! Taking a snooze in the meadow, are we?
With nary a twerp in sight to cause trouble!
Excuse me, 'twas because of my brilliant strategy, not luck.
JMJames & Meowth
Please...
[The Meowth balloon lands on the meadow and Team Rocket get out to try and grab Pikachu, but they fall into a pitfall trap]
Pikachu
[dancing] Pika, Pika!
What's with the pit trap?
[Ash, Dawn, and Brock begin their own version of Team Rocket's motto.]
Listen, is that bad guy talk I hear?
It speaks to me loud and clear.
[yells at Ash, Dawn, Brock and the Old Woman] IT'S THAT KIND OF IMITATION THEY INVENTED LAWSUITS FOR!
Chill out. We couldn't care less about you.
We're looking for Spiritomb!
[Spiritomb appears behind Team Rocket]
Huh? [They turn back to see Spiritomb]
I won't be treated like a piece of garbage.
I think it's time for those twerps to reap what they sow.
[Team Rocket get out of the pit and turn to Spiritomb]
Your Highness, if it's total unmerciful revenge you want, have I got the perfect sap for you.
[about Ash] That twerp with the perched Pikachu is a descendant of the Aura Guardian who sealed you in that crazy Keystone.
Pikachu
Pika?
[Spiritomb groans and uses Hyper Beam on Dawn, Brock, Ash and the woman who dodge it]
All right, Spiritomb, sure, I'll battle you.
OWOld Woman
You must lure it to the broken Stone Tower!
[to Spiritomb] Okay, come get me. [Runs off]
Pikachu
Pikachu!
Chill out, yo. Check it, my Mareep for your Pikachu, switch.
Then try this on. A Magneton and a Magnemite. We good?
Hey, I told you, no deal!
Pikachu
Pikachu!
So why do you want Pikachu so much?
Easy. I'm already down with a cool Pichu and Raichu, but I also wanna be makin' friends with a cool Pikachu, dig? Lemme break it down. I want a full power evolution set, yo!
[Ash has just finished registering for the Wallace Cup]
Yeah, I'm all registered!
Pikachu
Pika, Pika! [Hi, Zoey!]
Now don't tell me you're entering the Wallace Cup too?
Yeah! We were hanging out with Wallace the other day and he'd told me I should enter it, with Buizel.
[Gligar is standing on a rock and looking at Paul nervously]
You stopped our training. Get out!
[Ash arrives]
Gli? Gligar! [Runs to Ash, crying]
Are you all right? We were worried.
[Dawn, Brock and the other Pokémon arrive, but then Chimchar sees Paul]
[Chimchar hides while Turtwig and Pikachu greet Electabuzz]
Pikachu
Pika, Pika. [Hello, Electabuzz]
EElectabuzz
Electa. [Hello, you lot]
Did you have your Pastoria Gym Battle Challenge yet?
I can't imagine why a losing coordinator like you would have any concern about gym battles.
Pikachu
Pika?
I entered the Wallace Cup cos Wallace, the contest master, asked me to. He thought it would help Buizel's battle skills.
Remember the reason I entered the tag battle at Hearthome City?
Well, YOU gave ME a hard time, just because I did it to get my Pokémon in better shape for a real battle. BUT THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU PULLED AT THE WALLACE CUP! GET IT?!
Pikachu
Pika, Pi!
Brock, I smell a fight coming on. [The camera pans right to Brock]
When I was in that tag battle, the only thing I was thinking about was trying to win it. The only thing YOU were thinking about was how you could power up your own Pokémon.
Well, the fact is, I did win it, but you weren't able to win the Wallace Cup now, were you? Another perfect example of just how strong you aren't.
[Ash's Pokémon whimper while Dawn and Brock just glare at Paul]
[Dawn sets a pot of stew on the table]
[Ash and Brock have placed bowls of Pokémon food]
Pikachu
Pika?
[All of their Pokémon storm out of the water, go to their bowls and start eating]
That is some of my special Pokémon food. And I made plenty, so eat up.
[laughs] That’s Turtwig for you.
Yeah! [notices Gligar isn't there] Huh? Hey, where’d Gligar go? I’ll find out.
[eating] Croa... croa... croa...
[calling out] Hey, Gligar, come here!
Huh? [notices Gligar just as he lands on him] Ugh! [Gligar gets off of Ash] Why’d you do that?
Pikachu
Pika, Pikachu?
[uses X-Scissor on the ground] Gli! Gli!
Oh, that’s X-Scissor. Does that mean you wanna do some battle training?
That makes sense to me... [flashback of Gligar’s battle with Paul’s Gliscor] ...especially after Gligar had that frustrating battle with Paul’s Gliscor.
[As soon as the flashback ends, once hearing this, Gligar starts crying and groaning out of depression]
Careful, you’re going to get Gligar really depressed.
Training, huh? So you wanna get stronger, right?
Awesome! We’ll get down to it right after lunch.
[Gligar and Buizel are having a stare-down]
As our heroes continue the Sinnoh region trek toward Hearthome City and Ash’s next Gym battle, we find a very motivated Gligar prompting a round of special training.
Gligar, you’re in the thick of it. Use your eyes and show that winning glare!
[steps forward] Gli! [gasps once noticing Buizel’s evil smirk and growl]
[tears up and starts begging] Gli, Gli, Gli...
Well, that’s not gonna work. Gligar, you can’t give up before you start.
Pikachu
[embarrassed] Pika, Pika.
Gligar, now! Use X-Scissor and keep it going!
[powers up] Gligar! [uses several X-Scissors on Buizel, who dodges them easily]
Now, Buizel, use Aqua Jet!
[Buizel starts using Aqua Jet, intimidating Gligar so much that it clings onto Ash’s face, just before the Aqua Jet hits them both]
Gligar, what’s wrong with you?!
[Gligar starts looking at the ground, tearing up and squeaking]
Ash, wait. Getting mad like that will just depress Gligar even more.
[slightly annoyed] Well, yeah, but still...
Cheer up, Gligar. No need to worry. You’ll just try a little harder next time and you’ll be wonderful.
Man, I don’t want Gligar to get spoiled.
On the other hand, treating Gligar harshly isn’t going to get you very far either, right?
...Yeah. Okay, Turtwig, come out and gimme a hand! [sends in Turtwig]
Now, Turtwig. Energy Ball!
[starts forming the Energy Ball] Tur...
Gligar, if you don’t pay attention, you won’t be able to dodge.
[fires the Energy Ball at Gligar] Turtwig!
Now use Steel Wing right from where you are!
[hesitates] Uh? [uses Steel Wing] Gli! [pauses mid-dive once meeting Turtwig’s determined glare and defensive stance] Uh! [suddenly powers down and starts babbling and spinning around]
[turns and heads for Ash] Gligar.
Look out! [runs away with Pikachu in tow] Come on, Gligar, not over here!
Of course, NOW Gligar can fly straight as an arrow.
[pointing towards Turtwig] Your opponent’s back over there! [Gligar closes in and lands on Ash’s face] Ah! [removes Gligar from his face] What're you thinking?! [Gligar whimpers] You’re gonna have to stop crying and start toughening up. Let’s try it once more.
[From behind a bush, Team Rocket is eavesdropping the heroes]
Best wear a helmet when Gligar calls.
[laughs] I just thought of the perfect way to utilize that head-hugger.
I’m sensing a scene change.
[Begin boss fantasy]
"You know, Gliscor, when it comes to serious training, we're just getting warmed up."
Pikachu
"Pika, Pika."
[The title card comes up]
[voiceover] Barry's Busting Out All Over!
[Ash is running to the gym in Hearthome City...]
Fantina, I'm back for our rematch, just like I said!
[...when someone opens the door and he hits it, causing him to fall and lose his hat]
Oh, my aching head! [Gets up] You all right, Pikachu?
Pikachu
Pika.
[Barry, a boy with blonde hair who is wearing an orange and white jacket, stands up]
Why don't you two look where you're going? I'm going to have to give you a fine. You've got ten seconds to pay up.
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two... Huh? Don't just stand there! I'm going to be the strongest trainer in the world, you know. You've got that? Later! [Runs off]
Pikachu
Pika. Pika?
Huh? [Notices Barry's badge case and picks it up] It's a badge case.
[Team Rocket, disguised as construction workers, are doing some work]
Move a little earth and earn a little money.
With honest work and an empty tummy.
[Meowth pushes a wheelbarrow full of rocks]
And nobody can say we've got rocks in our head.
Hm, we're plumping our pockets.
Because we're Team Rocket!
[A Whismur appears]
WWhismur
Whis! [Opens a manhole cover] Whismur! Whismur!
[Luxio and a male Nidoran jump down the manhole and so does Whismur who puts the manhole cover back in its place]
Pikachu
Pika!
It's nice when primo Pokémon run right into our lap.
Especially when they're owned by twerpish saps.
And when it comes to having the right tool for the right job, I ain't no slob! Boo-yah! [Presses a button on the remote and a nearby excavator crane starts transforming into a mecha] Presenting the Earth-Moving Monster-Mashing Mecha 1!
[Team Rocket are now in their new mecha]
[The Earth-Moving Monster-Mashing Mecha 1 uses it left arm to grab Pikachu]
Pikachu
Pi!
Pikachu! [Grabs Pikachu in the nick of time]
Pikachu
Pika!
Ah! [Runs away from the mecha]
Pikachu
Pika!
[Ash and Pikachu fall down the manhole. Meanwhile, Team Rocket laugh evilly]
Yeah, we eat manhole covers for lunch!
[The mecha's arm hits the ground as it grabs the manhole cover]
Wah! Hey, turn it loose! Don't bend it!
We didn't bring a can opener!
Now, Piplup, use Whirlpool!
Piplup! [Uses Whirlpool and launches it at the Earth-Moving Monster-Mashing Mecha 1]
[The Earth-Moving Monster-Mashing Mecha 1 starts sinking in the waters of Canalave Harbour and explodes]
JJJessie & James
Those twerps are so mean!
