Sophocles quotes from Pokémon

Tapu Koko's gonna be so mad!

Not to mention Kiawe. He's gonna be furious when he finds out you lost a Z-Crystal.

You lied! You're not moving at all.

Stop! I didn't lie.

Yeah, but it's only for one week and it's on the same block.

Yeah.

What's the point?

Worrying about you was silly.

I don't like you, Sophocles.

Me neither.

[angrily] Me neither!

Nor me!

Hmph!

Hey, wait everybody!

[voiceover] Tapu Lele, Akala's island guardian, is known to scatter its glowing scales from time to time. It is said that whoever the scales touch will instantly be healed.

Oh, yeah. So that's why. [Remembers when Tapu Lele gave him some glowing scales and they healed his hands]

You know what I think? I think Tapu Lele is the guardian of life itself. Its light heals wounds and gives strength to those who need it.

Do you think we'll meet again?

Of course! Just as long as that's what you want. It would make me so happy if you felt Tapu Lele's presence here, and if on our field trip you thought about what life truly means and the relationship between people and Pokémon. I want you to feel that special something that's created only between you and your partner through your encounters. I know that's a lot to think about, though. Ha-ha! [Claps her hands once] Right, then, story time's over. Get ready. Grab your things and bring your Pokémon. Next, Akala Island! Let's go!

Ah!

Now, all aboard, everybody! [Jumps onto the boat, but she trips up] Uh! Wah! [Hits the wooden floor while the students give awkward looks] Like I said before, nothing to see. Nothing to see.

Pikachu

Pika?

Ha-ha!

Interesting. Serious explanations and then belly laughs after she trips.

[nods] She's so cool!

Seriously?

See you later!

Principal Oak

Now have a mystical Magikarp kind of time!

Karp! Karp!

Has everybody brought their own clay?

Yes, sir.

Oh, no, I forgot.

Would you like to share mine?

Thanks, Kiawe. [The camera pans to the right and reveals a clay mountain] All that?

Clay mountain.

Now, class, today you're going to sculpt your Pokémon partner, closely observing it while you work might lead you to discover something new.

Right.

Let's see. Who should I make? Nebby and Rowlet are asleep so, OK, Pikachu, I choose you.

Pikachu

Pikachu.

Now, stay perfectly still.

Pikachu

Pika.

Please make a balloon. [Popplio makes a balloon] Stop. Now, hold that pose. Stay still, okay.

Charge a bug.

It's the same.

Try again.

All done. It's Turtonator. [Turtonator cheers, but then the clay model's head looks down] No, it's not stable enough. [to Turtonator] Turtonator, get down. [Turtonator stands on four legs] That's it. Perfect. [Starts making the clay model again]

Now give me a cute pose. [Steenee gives a cute pose] Ah, perfect.

All right, let's try you, Togedemaru.

Wow. What's that?

I'm going to faithfully recreate Togedemaru's spikes. My super deluxe pottery wheel and carbon sculptor.

Sophocles, why are you waiting?

Timing is everything.

It probably would be better if I slimmed it down a little bit.

Hey. Check it out.

It looks more like a Mimikyu, not a Pikachu.

Uh-oh.

Pikachu

Pika?

Okay, one more time.

All right, Garchomp. I choose you!

Pikachu

Pika!

Garchomp!

I'm counting on you, Metang!

Now, Flygon, let's go!

Ee!

Fly!

All right, Dragonair!

Eeee!

Let's go, Altaria!

[happy]

Altaria!

I didn't expect to see you here. Ready to go, buddy?

Char!

Marow!

Gar!

Metang!

Altaria!

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] Sparking Confusion!

The Ultra Guardians, their mission - investigate Wela Volcano and find the reason for this magnetic anomaly.

Checking from the sky isn't enough. We should investigate on foot.

Got it. [Steps up to Kiawe] So, how do we investigate a magnetic anomaly?

You mean you don't know?

I borrowed a portable sensor.

Yeah, I did, too.

You can find an anomaly with that?

Right. And since we have two sensors, we should all probably split up into two groups.

Lillie's right. I'll search the area near the mines with Ash and Sophocles.

Got it. Then the three of us should check out the area we're in right now.

Let's move out!

Maro-Marowak! [Togedemaru and Pikachu follow it]

Maru!

Pikachu

Pika-Pika!

Let's move out, too.

Now, let's see. [Her sensor starts up with a greyscale screen. Bright green triangles and arrows appear as they turn red right to left]

That way.

I recorded it.

Let me see.

Yo! Yo! Yo! [They scurry off]

Those guys...

I get the feeling I've seen them before.

Eevee loves the sea for sure. [After a few moments of Eevee and Popplio later] Sandy.

Sandy?

Its name. I named it.

Huh? You named it before you caught it?

You're getting ahead of yourselves.

Yeah, you're doing things backwards.

It's time to catch it, yeah!

Now! Here we go, Charizard! The zenith... of my mind! Of body... and spirit! With the great power of Akala! Ride the blazing hot winds and fly high! Supersonic Skystrike!

Now, Vikavolt! Use Wild Charge! [Vikavolt uses Wild Charge and collides with Charizard] Concentrate your power. Locate a weak point and stop that Z-Move!

It's holding the Z-Move back!

That's so incredible!

Vikavolt is unable to battle, which means Kiawe is the winner!

Vikavolt! Thanks for the great battling. You gave it your all.

Vikavolt!

You were amazing, Sophocles.

Thanks. Next time I won't lose.

All right. Then I'll keep getting stronger so that I can keep up.

Huh?

Sophocles is one impressive young man!

He certainly is! We'll have a malasada party when he gets home!

That's it.

The best Pokédex in the universe.

I want to go on an adventure, too.

I'm sorry, Lana. Solgaleo was in a big hurry.

Guess we should expect things like this from you, Ash.

There's one more thing. I have to tell you something.

Huh?

I'm gonna go home to Pallet Town.

Huh?

You see, ever since Pikachu and I came to Alola, we've met you and tons of Pokémon. We learned lots of things at the Pokémon School. Yeah, it's been really the best, but now, I think... I'm going back home for a while and then I'm going to check out some other places.

Pikachu

Pika! [Jumps down onto Ash's right arm]

That'll give me a new chance to meet more new people and tons of new Pokémon and have a lot of Pokémon battles and get stronger and stronger. Someday, I'll do what I set out to do - become a Pokémon Master!

[realising that Ash has a new goal in life] You're not just talking about this vacation, you're really going...

Yeah.

[putting his right hand over his mouth] Aw, man. How about a warning, huh?

Yeah, really! W-What a shock!

The only surprise today was supposed to be Lillie's party.

It seems like I'm getting nothing but surprises, you know?

Ash, I'm sure you can become a Pokémon Master.

Mm-hm. I'll be cheering you on! We all will!

Thanks, you guys!

Take care, Lusamine. [She and Lusamine step back and reveal Gladion and Lillie who are also wearing smart clothes to wear on their journey of searching for their father, Mohn]

I guess... we'll be off!

I'll have a souvenir from Mossdeep City waiting for you when you get back, Lillie!

That's something to look forward to.

I hope you find your father really soon!

Thank you, Mallow!

If you guys need anything from us, please let us know.

You can be sure of it!

Promise you'll write!

Promise, Lana!

See you later. Take care.

Right. Ash, I...

Ash?

Huh?

[approaches Ash] The world seems big, but it's not. So when we meet again...

What else? We'll have a battle! [Shakes hands with Gladion]

This calls for a photo, so gather round, everyone! [Everyone stands or sits in front of the cruise ship that Lillie and her mother and brother will be boarding] Now everybody say, "Silvally!" [Takes the photograph]

Ash, can you hear me?! You know what? I'm really happy I got to meet you! You helped me out so much! After meeting you, I was finally able to become friends with Pokémon!

Snowy!

Magearna!

THANK YOU! [both Snowy and Megearna also bid farewell to Ash]

Lillie... I'm glad I got to meet you, and thank you, too!
