Lines by Goh 2
[Scorbunny turns to Goh with a serious face.]
GGoh
So, are you ready to practice your Fire-type move?
[Goh smiles, slightly lightening Scorbunny's face as it emboldens itself.]
GGoh
Now, use Quick Attack, but run in place!
[At Goh's call, Scorbunny starts running in place whilst using Quick Attack.]
[Scorbunny picks up speed, causing the intense friction from its feet to build up smoke, running from side to side for quicker buildup. Shortly, the smoke turns to fire, and then--]
GGoh
Now, while you're at it, kick this! [tosses a pebble]
[With the fiery buildup, Scorbunny kicks the pebble, sending it to Team Rocket as a flaming projectile!]
GGoh
The Wild Area offers a chance to catch unlimited Pokémon! Or at least that's what I thought...[it's revealed that Grookey ruined Goh's chance of getting an Applin, causing it to run away] Grookey, you could be a little less rambunctious.
Scenes with Goh 64
Honestly, Goh! This is exactly why you never make friends!
YGYoung Goh
Who said I wanted to make friends, anyway? What I want is to catch a Pokemon that nobody has ever seen before.
[Goh holds Scorbunny, covered in Snorlax's saliva.]
GGoh
I'm glad you're alright.
SScorbunny
Scor...[shakes the spit off, but some hangs at the edge of its nose.]
GGoh
Scorbunny, you did it.
GGoh
[points to the train] See that? Your Double Kick saved everybody on that train.
SScorbunny
Scor?? [Goh wipes the last of the spit off its nose]
[Scorbunny starts tearing up and smiles, but becomes dejected at the fact Goh refused its offer to join him, beginning its journey back to Wyndon. However, would Goh really let Scorbunny go back, when it has gotten this far just to join him?]
GGoh
Hold on! [Scorbunny stops.] You know, you were great out there. That's why...I want the first Pokémon I catch to be you!
[Goh walks toward Scorbunny, taking out a Poké Ball.]
GGoh
You ready? [Scorbunny, realizing what is happening, excitedly perks up!] And the best way to catch is to throw a curve ball!
GGoh
Now, Poké Ball, go!! [Goh throws the Poké Ball, but the curve causes it to miss, surprising both Goh and Scorbunny.]
SScorbunny
[Catches the Ball with its foot before kicking it up.] Scor! Bun!
[Scorbunny goes inside the Ball, which vibrates a few times before chiming, revealing the catch is successful.]
GSGoh's Rotom Phone
Scorbunny has been registered to your Pokédex. [We were long overdue for a male companion getting a current generation Fire-type Starter]
[At the Cerise Research Laboratory, the Piplup is munching its food as Ash checks it out on his Rotom Phone]
ASAsh's Rotom Phone
Piplup, the Penguin Pokémon, a Water-Type. Piplup is a proud Pokémon and an excellent swimmer, and it has a layer of down that keeps out of the cold.
So weird. I wonder where that Piplup came from.
GGoh
That, Pokémon sure can eat a lot.
SScorbunny
Mebun, Scorbun.
[The rules of World Coronation series]
GGoh
Now let's not get stuck in the weeds. See this is about how you want to battle Leon, right?
[nods in agreement] Bingo!
GGoh
I get it. I get it alright. You know, trying to get a battle with Leon is not as easy as you'd think. Just to get into the World Coronation Series in the first place, you enter online and build up your ranking by having lots of Pokémon battles.
GGoh
Your position compared to others, and based on battling records and statistics, the eight highest ranked trainers then form what's called the Master Class. At the end of the class match season, there's a tournament where trainers in the Master Class battle each other and the winner becomes Monarch.
So does that mean if I submit my entry, I can battle against Leon?
GGoh
It doesn't work that way.
GGoh
Based on whether an entered win or losses in Pokémon battles and looking at the content of battles, entrances get separated into four distinct classes. All recently entered trainers are put into Normal Class. Then, they battle other normal class trainers, and lift up their scores. And those ranked between 100 and 999 are Great Class and above that those ranked between 9 and 99 are Ultra Class.
GGoh
Of course he's in Master Class, but not only that, he's number one! So Ash, for you to battle him, you have to start climbing the ranks to get up to Master Class. [Now you know why Ash cannot compete in the Galar League]
[Goh catches both a female and male Nidoran]
GGoh
There's nothing like two for the price of one!
[annoyed] Would you please do things right and teach them about the Pokémon before you catch them?
GGoh
No worries! I'll do it right now! [summons his Pidgey, Male Nidoran and Female Nidoran]
[Ash senses something calling to him after his World Coronation Series match against Hayden]
GGoh
Congratulations, Ash! Hey, what's wrong?
Huh? I felt like I was being called...but by who?
GGoh
What do you mean? I don't see anybody.
Not by anybody here, but...How do I say it? It's kinda sorta like...uh...
GGoh
You're not making any sense. Although I do remember you said that you heard something back when we met Lugia.
It's a little bit different from that time, too. [Just then, Hayden walks up to the duo]
HHayden
Excellent battle, Ash! That was a powerful Thunderbolt. You're quite a Trainer! [Both Ash and Hayden shake hands]
As a result of today's battle, there has been a change in the World Coronation Series rankings effective immediately.
HHayden
If we meet again, let's have another battle!
Sounds good! [Hayden waves goodbye and leaves]
[The camera closes up to Korrina before fading to Lucario]
[strikes a series of poses before triggering her Mega Glove] Unlock...the power within! Mega Evolve!!
[Lucario's form changes as it becomes Mega Lucario. Upon the process' completion, Lucario releases a burst of aura.]
GGurkinn
Your first experience?
GGoh
Yes. I've certainly read and heard about it, and knew that it existed.
GGurkinn
Mega Evolution is a phenomenon discovered in the Kalos region that releases a Pokémon's true power. It only occurs if Trainer and Pokémon have strong bond of trust.
[After watching the battle in Wyndon Stadium, Ash and Goh see the statue]
Hey, do you think this might be a statue of Leon?
GGoh
Hm. Well, it looks like him in a power pose, but then again, no.
[Does a pose] He looked a lot more like this.
[Goh's eyes animate differently after Ash's line]
GGoh
Sorry, not even close! [does a pose] This!
[Does another pose] Or this!
GGoh
Not quite right. [Seizes Ash tight] You're not smiling like Leon does!
WWoman
[off camera] So my friend Leon's a hero...
[Cut to a woman with orange hair who is sitting on a bench]
WWoman
Oh. Oh, don't mind me! I've got a habit of talking to myself.
Excuse me. Is this statue supposed to be Leon?
WWoman
No, not a chance! That's a famous Galar region hero.
WWoman
Yup, yup! [A flashback from long ago begins] Long ago, a great black storm covered the Galar region. The land was assaulted by gigantic Pokemon.
GGoh
Sounds like Dynamax..
WWoman
But they were defeated by a single young hero bearing a sword and shield. [The camera returns to the present] The statue here is meant to depict the young hero of that legend, mostly just in spirit, though.
GGoh
Do you think that storm could've been a hurricane or thunderstorm?
WWoman
I'm still not really sure just what it was. Or even if the legend actually occurred. I want to know what kind of person they were, and where the sword and shield are now. And what does it have to do with Dynamaxing? You could say investigating this is a bit of homework. And it's exhausting!
GGoh
It's homework? You mean for school?
WWoman
Oh, no way! See my gran, a Pokemon Professor, asked me. I'm kind of her assistant, more or less.
Cool! My name's Ash! This is my partner, Pikachu.
[The woman shrieks with awestruck and gets all gaga over Pikachu]
WWoman
What a cutie pie! [Caresses Pikachu's ears]
GGoh
And my name's Goh. This is my...
[But then, the woman shrieks again upon seeing Raboot and caresses its ears too, much to Goh's surprise]
WWoman
You're a real cutie pie, too! [gibbers]
RRaboot
[nervous] Ra... Ra...
We came all the way here from the Kanto region.
GGoh
We're working as research fellows, investigating lots of Pokemon. Hi.
WWoman
Wow! Sonia's my name. Nice to meet you!
It's probably far from here now.
GGoh
I want to catch it so bad. [throws the Pokéball at the spot in the fountain where Sobble is hiding and catches it!] How dumb! I threw one of my Pokéballs cause I got carried away! What a goof.
GSGoh's Rotom Phone
Sobble has been registered into your Pokédex. [Both Ash and Goh are shocked]
So it was in the fountain!
[The episode opens with a car travelling through a tunnel. The car comes out of the tunnel as it goes along the road through the countryside. Inside it are Walker and Camille, Goh's parents. Walker is doing the driving]
CCamille
You know, I wish Mom had come along, too.
WWalker
Well, that one's on us for making plans on the very same day as our karaoke competition.
[Camille turns to Goh, who is sitting in the back seat of the car looking bored]
CCamille
Goh, you seem quiet. Are you feeling carsick? Goh?
CCamille
You feeling all right?
WWalker
She asked if you were feeling carsick?
GGoh
Carsick? [gleefully] Hey, I've never felt better! How about you two? You okay? You were awake all hours of the night finishing your work.
WWalker
[Chuckles] That was to make sure we could leave today.
CCamille
We feel better than fine.
GGoh
Now that's just what I wanna hear. Oh, by the way, why did you choose Azalea Town again?
CCamille
Well last time, we were so busy we never got a chance to relax.
WWalker
So your mom and I talked about it and decided. This is gonna be a vacation to remember.
GGoh
All right. Can't wait. [Looks out of the car window and sees a shadow. The shadow is revealed to be a young Goh when he was walking in the rain with a Sunflora]
[Back in the present, Goh is still sitting in the back seat of the car, with Sobble and Raboot]
[Goh's Pikachu leads the group to a canyon, where a large pack of Pikachu are digging around.]
Look at at all the Pikachu!
[The Pikachu smash rocks, and burrow holes in the ground.]
GGoh
I wonder what they're searching for.
[One of the Pikachu notice a green luster within some rock. He calls the others before using Iron Tail to excavate the source of the luster: a certain evolution item.]
GGoh
It's a Thunder Stone!
[The wild Pikachu touches the stone, and evolves into Raichu]
GGoh
I get it now. When a Pikachu touches a Thunder Stone, it evolves into a Raichu! That's it! The Pikachu are all here to search for Thunder Stones!
[And, speak of the devil, Goh's Pikachu finds one.]
GSGoh's Pikachu
Pika! (Here you go!)
ASAsh's Pikachu
Pika! Pika-pika! (What!? No way!)
[Goh's Pikachu, still carrying the stone, runs after Ash's around his Trainer's legs, refusing to accept the Thunder Stone!]
[The two Pikachu run behind a large rock, where a blue shine is seen from behind. Not good...]
[A male Raichu jumps from behind the rock. Could it be...?]
[Luckily, Ash's Pikachu is still running away from Goh's. What a relief! That Raichu was still a wild one.]
GGoh
Well...it's not yours.
[Ash's Pikachu jumps onto Ash's head.]
ASAsh's Pikachu
Pikachu! (I said "no"!)
GGoh
If Pikachu evolves, it gets stronger, right? I thought Pikachu wants to evolve.
My Pikachu has always wanted to get stronger as a Pikachu. [to Goh's Pikachu] Since Pikachu feels that way, we don't need it. Sorry.
[Goh's Pikachu ears droop before she perks up, giving the Thunder Stone to her Trainer.]
GGoh
You want me to have it?
GSGoh's Pikachu
Pika! (That's right.)
GGoh
Okay. [takes the stone] I guess mine wants to stay the same, just like yours does!
[Ash nods.]
Yeah. I believe that a Pokémon should evolve when they want to.
[Soon, Ash and Goh arrive at Professor Kukui's beachside home.]
Alola, Professor Burnet. [sees the Professor's baby] And, this is Lei, right?
[Lei babbles happily in his mother's arms.]
That's right, big brother.
[flustered] Big brother? Me? [kneels down to Lei.] Hi, Lei. Nice to meet you. [giggles] Tiny hands.
[Lei touches Ash's cheek as he laughs. He likes his brother already!]
Lei. Now, now. Come inside, Goh! There's always room for one more!
GGoh
Thanks for inviting me in.
[As the five enter the house, Ash gets a surprise greeting from--you guessed it--his Alola team!]
It's Rowlet, Lycanroc, Incineroar and Melmetal!
[The four Pokemon pile on Ash and Pikachu with a group hug.]
I'm glad to see you, too! Hey, you're kinda heavy!
[A confused Goh looks on at the reunion.]
Hey, I'd like you to meet my friends, Goh, Raboot, and Sobble.
[The four Pokemon turn to Goh, startling him before they let him in on the group hug!]
Now that's a Blast Burn of welcome wishes!
Hey, Ash. Mallow had organized a party at the Pokémon School to welcome you back. She wanted to make sure Goh came too.
Whoa, really? I am so there!!
GGoh
There's a party for me, too?
[Sonia's car jumps up as Goh, Raboot and Sobble experience the bumpy ride]
GGoh
No offense, Sonia, but I'm concerned about your driving...
[sighs] Don't be rude! The problem is my car's really old.
GGoh
Oh, oh, yeah! [Takes out his Rotom Phone] Please, Rotom, would you try Ash again?
GSGoh's Rotom Phone
Right away!
[Goh places his phone to his ear. Then, the camera cuts to Ash who is flying aboard his Dragonite]
ASAsh's Rotom Phone
You have a call from Goh. You have a call from Goh. [Ash takes it out] You have a call from Goh.
[answers] Hey, there, Goh. Where are you now?
GGoh
[on the phone] YOU ANSWERED! Where am I? Where are you?!
I'm with Leon, and we're gonna stop the Dynamax Pokémon from rampaging.
GGoh
[on the phone] With Leon?
[Cut to Goh]
[on the phone] Yeah. It's a long story...
GGoh
My story's long to... I met up with Sonia and we're on our way to check out some ruins in Turffield.
[Flashback]
GGoh
[voiceover] You remember! From Wyndon Stadium! The one we met in front of the hero statue.
[voiceover] [on the phone] Oh, yeah! Wasn't she researching some legend or something?
[Flashback ends]
GGoh
She sure was. She thinks that the rampaging Dynamax Pokémon in the Galar region have something to do with the very same hero legend. That's why she and I are going together to Turrffield so we can figure out the mysteries of that legend.
