“Battling Turned Up to Eleven!” · Season 25, Episode 9
In this episode: Ash Ketchum (6), Piers (4), Goh (3), Marnie (3), Pikachu (1)
[Ash and Goh arrived in Spikemuth after being tricked by Team Yell that the World Coronation series match is here. The city is dark and empty. Not a good place to have a World Coronation series match...]
We're going to have a battle here? [Even Pikachu is baffled]
Yep, apparently the directions Team Yell gave us lead right to this location.
ROCK AND ROLL! [while practing with his Rillaboom, two Toxtricity and Obstagoon]
[Both Pikachu's Thunderbolt and Toxtricity's Discharge attacks cancel each other out]
Hey, that wasn't nice!
We're in the middle of a rehearsal, so no one is allowed inside.
But hold on, isn't this a gym?
It's our gym, it's our stage. Spikemuth Gym. I'm the Gym Leader here, a real genius with Dark types. Mournful Piers is what the fans call me! Now meet the band! On backing vocals, Obstagoon! [Obstagoon screams like the band members of KISS] On drums, Rillaboom! On guitar, Toxtricity (Amped form)! On bass, Toxtricity (Low-key form)!
I'm here for the World Coronation series! My name is Ash! I'm battling today!
Wait, your name is Ash? Are you in the Ultra Class? And you are from the Kanto region?
Right, so you're saying you've heard of me?
Wow Ash! You're famous!
That's weird. Marnie should be waiting for you over at Wyndon Stadium.
[A weary Piers sighs in annoyance, hinting that Team Yell has a bad habit of sabotaging Marnie's opponents. Good thing Piers is a Team leader that is not a villain.]
They're part of our crew. Sorry if they messed you up.
So, how do you know about Marnie?
She's my little sister.
No, I can't do that! [accept a default win] I want a real battle, you hear me? I'm gonna wait.
[Marnie learns that her fanclub, Team Yell, attempted sabotage from Ash]
[to Team Yell] SHUT YOUR BIG YAPS! [to Ash] Hey, did that lot really lie to you?
Uh-huh. They said the match was somewhere else. Thankfully, Piers drove me here, himself.
My bro did that?
We really wanted you to win, Marnie! You win and it'll help Spikemuth out, don't you see that?
Not if I win that way! [The Team Yell grunts all freak out. You know you did wrong when your idol chews you out for your actions]
[Marnie does the friendly smile pose just like in the games]
Thanks for today. I loved our match. But mark my words, Ash. I won't lose again!
[nods in agreement and shakes Marnie's hand] We'll both do our best!
Pikachu! [Take care, Marnie!]
