[At the start of the episode, Ash, Dawn and Brock are in a forest as Dawn tries to catch a Buneary]
This time for sure, Dawn. Go for it!
I'm so psyched. [Prepares to throw the Poké Ball that's in her right hand] Here we go!
Hold on! You got to make your Poké Ball bigger first.
Huh? [Loses control of the Poké Ball] Oh!
You'd better hurry. It'll get away.
All right. I'm ready now. Let's go, Poké Ball! [Throws the Poké Ball at Ash instead of the wild Buneary] Huh?
[when the Poké Ball hits him] Oh. [Falls onto the ground]
Ugh! Watch where you throw that thing!
It was an accident. If you hadn't been yelling at me, my hand wouldn't have slipped.
You weren't doing it right.
[Cut to Brock and Pikachu who are sitting on a rock]
[off-camera] Look, don't you get nasty with me! [While Dawn is saying this, the camera cuts to her Piplup]
[off-camera] Just get it together and I won't have to.
[Meanwhile, Buneary runs off and Piplup points it out to Ash and Dawn]
ADAsh & Dawn
No, Buneary!
Well, I hope you're happy now.
Why not? It's your fault.
Your yapping scared Buneary away, you know!
Any new journey has bumps in the road. The question for our heroes seems a simple one, though. Is this a small bump in the road, or a massive pothole?
[It is the dawn of a new day somewhere in the Sinnoh region and the sun is rising]
It was to be a fateful day for Dawn, and a certain Pokémon named Buneary, as our heroes continue toward Jubilife City.
[Ash is waking up in his sleeping bag]
[Some Starly fly past, and Ash runs over to Dawn's tent]
Don't you dare come in here! My hair's a complete mess, and nobody sees it!
Dawn, don't sweat it. C'mon, that's what hats are for.
Well, isn't that a typical male response! Ash, unlike your who-cares-how-I-look world, I take pride in my appearance, get it?
But it's just not worth it to get nuts about hair!
Pika? [What's with Croagunk?]
[The camera pans left for Brock who is cooking some breakfast with Croagunk beside him]
See, you're witnessing a typical morning for this crazy family, but you'll get used to it!
Croag. Croag. Croag. [I suppose so.]
Pika! [Oh, yes!] Pikachu! [Let's do this!]
BBuneary
[starts behaving oddly by blushing and covering her face with her fluff] Buneary...Buneary...Buneary! [Oh, my! Oh, please, why do you want to fight me? Why?!]
Buneary's acting completely different when battling Piplup before. I wonder...
BBuneary
[stops covering her face and notices Pikachu] Buneary? [Huh?] [covers her face again with her fluff] Bunearyyyyyy! [Noooooo!]
I had a feeling before this was going on. Buneary has got a crush on Pikachu! [Bonsly and Aipom agree with Dawn]
Oh man, how do we battle with this going on?
BBuneary
[walks up to Pikachu still covering her face with her fluff] Buneary...Bun, Buneary. [I can do this. Come on Buneary...] [sees Pikachu and covers her face again!] Bunearyyyyy! [I can't do it!]
[While Brock is looking for Cheri Berries to heal Monferno]
And one and two, one and two. One and two, great! You’re all looking wonderful.
[everyone cheers]
All right, now it’s Piplup’s turn.
