Pokémon quotes

Team Rocket, prepare for trouble! On second thought, make that double!

To protect the world from devastation?

To unite all people within our nation?

Maybe you think I'm a little too brash, but the Master is here, and the name... [turning towards the Team Rocket Trio] is Ash!

Pikachu

Pikachu!

My Pokémon Team is faster than light! So surrender now, or you're in for a fight!

Me-owth, that's right!

[grunts as she pushes Meowth to the floor] [to Ash] How dare you mangle our motto?

That is copyrighted material!

Copycat!

All right Pikachu, hit 'em with a Thunderbolt!

We're blasting off again!

What are you so happy about? What's that thing you've got there?

It's just an old lawn ornament, there's a bunch o' neat stuff over in that field an' it's all round...

Small minds are easily amused.

Lickitung, go!

Victreebel, too!

Licki!

[screams as it chows down on James]

[gibberish, that when backmasked, has James saying "Leo Burnett and 4Kids are the devil! Leo Burnett...!". This line was recorded in protest of 4Kids' decision to give their voice work to Leo Burnett Worldwide, which enabled them to not have to pay voice actors for Pokémon commercials. This, according to James' actor Eric Stuart, indirectly revoked his health care plan, and as a result, the line was recorded and inserted into this episode. Because 4Kids got in trouble for the line, however, it is replaced with James wailing in later releases.] Hey! Put me...

Some night. I didn't do anything wrong and I still got sent to bed without any supper.

WILL YOU STOP COMPLAINING, ASH?! BROCK AND I ARE JUST AS HUNGRY AS YOU ARE!

THAT'S RIGHT! SO STOP YOUR GRUMBLING AND GO TO SLEEP, WILL YA?!

Tell that to my stomach.

[facing Team Rocket when they stole all the food from the Pokemon Center] YOU THREE HAVE CAUSED ENOUGH TROUBLE WHEN YOU TOOK THAT FOOD!! NOW GIVE IT BACK OR ELSE!!!!!

The most important thing a new Pokémon Trainer has to remember is... Uh... Let's see now, uh, what was it?... It's on the tip of my tongue... Uh...

Forfeit!

Forfeit?!

It's supposed to be a trainer's responsibility to judge whether his Pokémon can continue to battle or not.

Well ya know what ya always find in beautiful places like this, don't ya?

No, Brock, what?

Beautiful girls... Guys, this could be it, this could be where I'm finally gonna meet the girl of my dreams!

That's crazy, what makes you think you're gonna find the girl of your dreams here?

Because she's standing right over there...

All right, you weasely Pokémon thief! What did you do with my little Marill?

Is it supposed to be a dream or a nightmare?

[shakes Ash violently] I heard you talking about my Marill! Now, where is it?!

Your Marill?!

YES!!! What have you done with my Pokémon?!

It... went for a little swim!

[steps in] I believe I can rectify this terrible misapprehension!

[to Wilhomina's Marill, after it angrily hits her] DON'T DO THAT! Go ahead, stay here and cry then if you can.

Hey, how'd they do that?

JAMES. Don't tell me you forgot to put the parking brake on!

Alright, what would you like me to tell you then?

[shocked] What?! Togepi is inside on that thing?! [running] Togepi!!

You're gonna have to pay if you destroy that tank, missy!

NO WE'RE NOT, AND THE NAME IS MISTY!

[disappointed scolding at Togepi] And you're not driving again until you're eighteen!

Charizard, I need to give me a ride.
