[Flying in their hot air balloon ]
There it is. I think we should go straight up the river.
James, what's taking so long? Aren't those potatoes ready yet?
Can't you hurry it up a little?
Hey, maybe they'll cook faster if we turn the fire higher.
[Meowth turns the fire up which burns the balloon and they come crashing down ]
F Fisherman
I love to, but before I do, one of you trainers could catch me a Sudowoodo.
F Fisherman
Yes, the Sudowoodo is a real rare kind of Pokémon. They say you can find them at the top of that mountain there, but I have never seen one. Three Pokémon Trainers might have a better chance of catching a Sudowoodo than me.
[when Ash opens his Pokédex ] Let’s see what Dexter says.
D Dexter
“Sudowoodo, the Imitation Pokémon. This rare Pokémon hides in trees to avoid capture.”
Sudowoodo looks pretty interesting.
That's impossible! None of the research papers back that up!
Well, if you spend less reading research and more time DOING research, you it IS possible!
Then you're saying every single report is wrong?!
I’m saying there’s a possibility they are!
You must be smarter than I am! And the other experts that agree with me!
I don’t know about the other experts, but I’m definitely smarter than you are!
Sudowoodo is a Rock-type?!
That’s pretty hard to believe. Rock-type Pokémon are usually rocky and gravely like Geodude, Graveler, Golem and Onix.
Sudowoodo is more like...
More like a Grass-type Pokémon. I can’t believe it’s a Rock-type.
I agree with you, Misty. I can’t believe it either. But all the researchers say Sudowoodo is a Rock-type.
We already have the answers!
You can believe the books, but I think finding answers first hand is always the best!
Exactly right! Yours is the first hand I've held in a long time and I can tell you from personal experience you can't find this in a book! Maybe you and I can do some research in the field of love?
[pulls Brock by his ear ] In that field, your position is left out.
[when trying to find a Sudowoodo ]
There have been reports of Sudowoodo looking like oak trees, plum trees and cherry trees. They even change color like real trees.
Wow. [fantasizes several Sudowoodo ] They must be Grass-types.
[looking up ] Sudowoodo gather branches to look like trees.
[the leaves fall down from the branches ]
[When Sudowoodo falls through a hole ]
Maybe that means it’s a Ground-type.
[Suddenly, a net comes up out of the hole, revealing Sudowoodo ]
Prepare for trouble, because we’re in cahoots.
And make it trouble, right down to our roots.
To protect the world from devastation.
To unite all peoples within our nation.
To denounce the evils of truth and love.
To extend our reach to the stars above.
Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light.
Surrender now or prepare to fight fight fight.
[bursts out of a stump ] That’s right!
And took Sudowoodo with them!
We’ll never find it again!
Don't worry, Marie, we'll find that Sudowoodo and if we don't I'll leave my friends and dedicate myself to working with you 24/7 every minute of the day and night... [gets hit by Misty’s mallet ]
[about the Sudowoodo that Team Rocket brought ]
F Fisherman
[suspiciously ] Why isn’t it saying anything?
Maybe it doesn’t want to talk to strangers.
F Fisherman
Well, whatever it is, it doesn’t look too healthy.
