[Professors Kukui and Burnet are walking together on an Alola beach at sunset.]
BProfessor Burnet
She [Lusamine] can always count on them. Nice. Ash is so cool.
[Burnet looks around before turning her eyes toward Kukui.]
BBurnet
I wish I could've been there, just to see the look on their faces when he said that.
It would've been great if you'd been there.
[He looks toward Burnet.]
They were a sight to behold.
BBurnet
You and I think alike, don't we, Professor? I think so.
[The professors come to a stop.]
BBurnet
Okay then, so tell me, do you know what I'm thinking right now?
Wha--? [He chuckles.] Uh...
BBurnet
Maybe, that's too hard.
Um, it's just... uh... [he chuckles nervously.]
BBurnet
You don't have a clue, do you? [She laughs.]
[The two share a hearty laugh before Burnet takes a few steps away from Kukui.]
BBurnet
Why not just admit it and give up, Kukui?
BBurnet
[leaning towards Kukui] "What I'm thinking about right now is..."
[Kukui reaches his arms out to hug her or something similar, but she dodges and turns around, sending Kukui off-balance for a bit. He recovers and turns around as well. Burnet laughs at this interaction.]
BBurnet
[pointing her finger at Kukui] I choose you!
[Kukui pulls out an upside Poké Ball as if challenging Burnet to a battle. When he does not send out a Pokémon, Burnet becomes confused, then shocked about what she thinks he might do next...]
[Kukui flips the Poké Ball over and opens it. Instead of a Pokémon, the Ball contains an engagement ring, marking the first on-screen proposal in the Pokémon anime!]
[Burnet drops her arm and becomes overwhelmed at Kukui's proposal.]
[One evening, a battle is taking place at the Battle Royal Dome]
The Battle Royal, our main event, is down to just two competitors.
[The camera cuts to an Electivire]
With Mr Electric and his partner, Electivire.
Versus the Masked Royal and his Incineroar.
[The crowd roars as the camera cuts to the commentators who are Team Rocket in disguise]
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!
MRMasked Royal
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.
[Ash, Pikachu, Torracat, Lycanroc, Professor Burnet and Poipole are watching the battle on TV at Professor Kukui's house]
BProfessor Burnet
That's the way it's done!
[commentating on TV] It now appears that Mr. Electric has grabbed Incineroar's leg.
ABAsh & Professor Burnet
Huh?
So who is that Mr Electric anyway?
RDRotom Dex
Well, that Mr Electric only happens to be a member of the Revengers.
[The camera cuts to outside Sophocles' house and inside, Sophocles is explaining to his dad about the Revengers]
The Revengers are a team, a team of really bad guys who always go around breaking all the rules.
[Meanwhile, Kiawe, Mimo and his Marowak are watching the battle on TV from their home on Akala Island]
And that's why my support is fully behind the Masked Royal. Right makes might.
[The camera then cuts to Lillie and Hobbes watching the match at Lillie's Mansion]
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!
[Back at Kukui's house, Ash and Professor Burnet have also noticed Lana and Mallow]
BProfessor Burnet
That's Lana and Mallow.
Oh, wow. Seeing it right there is so great.
[The camera cuts to Mr Electric who has still got his hands on Incineroar's leg]
[commentating on TV] Egad! Electivire's set to clobber Incineroar from behind. One pop and Electrivire is up, up and away.
MRMasked Royal
Now use Throat Chop!
[Incineroar gets ready to make its move]
Dat's da move dat wins everytime!
[Then, they see an attack hit the Masked Royal's Incineroar which came from a Magmortar and its trainer, Mad Magmar]
MMMad Magmar
Ha-ha, ha-ha.
It seems that the team of Mad Magmar and Magmortar has rushed in.
[The bell rings 7 times]
The team of Mr Electric and Electivire has been DQ'd with the illegal assist.
[The camera cuts back to inside Kukui's house]
Rotom, what just happened?
RDRotom Dex
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.
[At the docks, near a cruise ship, the Pokémon are saying their goodbyes to Lillie and her family's Pokémon. Meanwhile, Professor Burnet is hugging Lusamine who is dressed in blue]
BProfessor Burnet
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]
[The camera cuts to Ash and his friends who have come with them to the docks]
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!
If you guys need anything from us, please let us know.
See you later. Take care.
[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]
[Then, the ship's horn blares]
RDRotom Dex
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]
[Soon, the cruise ship leaves the dock, and Lillie, Gladion and their mother Lusamine are among the passengers. They see everyone on the dock waving goodbye, including Ash, Lana, Sophocles, Professor Kukui, Professor Burnet, Faba and Hobbes. Then, after several flashbacks, Lillie runs to the stern of the ship to give Ash a proper farewell]
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!
THANK YOU! [both Snowy and Megearna also bid farewell to Ash]
Lillie... I'm glad I got to meet you, and thank you, too!
[Soon, Ash and Goh arrive at Professor Kukui's beachside home.]
BProfessor Burnet
Welcome back, you two!
Alola, Professor Burnet. [sees the Professor's baby] And, this is Lei, right?
[Lei babbles happily in his mother's arms.]
BProfessor Burnet
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!]
BProfessor Burnet
Lei. Now, now. Come inside, Goh! There's always room for one more!
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!
BProfessor Burnet
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!!
There's a party for me, too?
