[Delibird throws several Poké Balls into the air.]
[Could it be...? It is! It's Team Rocket's old Pokémon that were left at HQ: Yanmega, Seviper, Woobat, Frillish, Gourgeist, Mime Jr., Yamask, Inkay, Amoonguss and Carnivine! Each of Team Rocket's old Pokémon announce themselves.]
YYanmega
Yan-Yan! [Hello again!]
Seviper! [Long time no see!]
WWoobat
Woobat-Woobat! [Did you miss us?]
FFrillish
Frillish-Frillish! [It's great to be back!]
GGourgeist
Gourgeist-Gour! [What's up?]
Mime-Mime-Mime-Mime! [Just like good old days!]
YYamask
Yamask! [Ready to work!]
IInkay
Inkay-Ink! [I'm in for some more fun!]
AAmoonguss
Amoonguss! [Love the surprise?]
CCarnivine
Carnivine! [It's going to be delightful!]
MMorpeko
Mor-Morpeko. [You must be the other mons Jessie and James mentioned.]
[Team Rocket cheered in excitement at seeing their old Pokémon again. Just like the good old days!]
Dear Frillish, and Gourgeist and Woobat and Yanmega! Seviper! Dearies! [Her Pokémon are cuddling her quite well.]
Inkay, Mime Jr., Amoonguss, Dear Yamask! Chomp down, Carnivine! [James' mons are cuddling him as well with Carnivine biting James' head.]
Nothing like a Pokémon party to rock the house!
Wobba-Wobbuffet! [I sure miss those guys!]
[Delibird also summons a golden statue of Giovanni as well. The eyes on the statue turn blue to indicate that Giovanni is contacting them through the statue]
JJJessie, James, Meowth
Giovanni, sir!
I want you to take responsibility for the Pokémon you have caught up to this point. [Wish you done that earlier, instead of having them use the Rocket Prize Master, Giovanni?]
JJJessie, James, Meowth
Yes, sir!
That is all. [The statue explodes]
It brings back memories and this face and that face and of all our assignments. [a fantasy version of Weezing, Arbok (both released in Hoenn to protect the wild Koffing and Ekans), Victreebel (traded away for another Weepinbell by the Magikarp salesman before they both got released in Johto), Dustox (released in Sinnoh to mate with a Shiny Dustox), Lickitung (Jessie accidentally traded her Lickitung for Benny's Wobbuffet in Johto), Chimecho (James left it behind in one of his summer cottages after Chimecho was too ill to continue), Cacnea (given away to Gardenia in Sinnoh to master Drain Punch), Mareanie and Mimikyu (both left behind in Alola) all appear. So when are the Rocket Gang going to reunite with them again, not counting Mareanie and Mimikyu?]
I hope they are feeling all the love.
For the sake of those who did their love and best...
And for the sake of giving the boss a tiny bit of peace...
BJBoth Jessie and James
We'll get our hands on Pikachu, that's what we'll do!
And we'll let the world know Team Rocket's Revenge Mission is riding again!
That makes us sound like real villains!
All we need are the details of a plan.
Pick me, please! I've got some rocking plans! Right, Mime Jr.?
Mime-Mime! (Right, James!)
Perhaps you'd like to explain it now, Mr. Plan Maker.
[Note: This is the last episode where Ash is the main protagonist. However, it is confirmed that Ash will be back as a guest character in the future. The writers still have to fix Ash's reserves as they owe him a Meganium, Typhlosion, Feraligatr, Crawdaunt, Floatzel, Garchomp, Samurott, Serperior, Emboar, Scrafty, Gigalith and Seismitoad, as well as give Ash new mons that were missed opportunities (Best examples are: Beartic, Houndoom, Grumpig, Flygon, Rapidash, Tyranitar, Hippowdon, Weavile, Sableye, Abomasnow, Fearow, Magnezone, Bastiodon, Scolipede, Whimsicott, Volcarona, Archeops, Hatterene, Vivillon, Dragapult, Dragalge, Mantine, Beedrill, Honchkrow, Pyroar, Trevenant, Golisopod, and Passimian)]
Pikachu. [Morning, Marill.]
MMarill
Ma-marill [Hi, Pikachu.]
I got to run an errand for the Professor, so I'll be out for a while. Take over while I'm gone.
Sure. Leave it to me. Have Charmander, Squirtle and Bulbasaur arrived? The Professor said I could see them before they go to new trainers.
They've arrived a while ago. The Professor will be giving them checkups.
Gotta see that! Pikachu, let's go! [Both Ash and Pikachu head to the lab]
Well, Marill. Let's be on our way too.
I may not look it, but I'm pretty busy. Oh hey, Ash. I still haven't mentioned it yet. Congratulations on being champ.
Uhhh...thanks a lot, Gary.
So, now that you're the Champion, just how close are you to becoming a Pokémon Master? [Ash is confused, but Gary has faith that Ash will figure it out.] Later. [leaves the lab with his Umbreon.]
You saved us, Pidgeot! Thanks a lot!
Pika-pika! [Glad you're back!]
PPidgeot
Pidgeot! [Anytime!]
[Just then, Pidgeot's flock of wild Pidgey and Pidgeotto arrive]
Pika! [Look at that flock!]
Is it me, or is everybody bigger than last time?
PPidgeot
Geot! [Oh, they've grown up and gotten stronger!]
PPidgeotto
Geottot-Pidgeotto! [Go be with your trainer again. We're old enough to take care of ourselves!]
PPidgeot
Pidgeot! [Take care then!]
Wanna come travel with me again?
PPidgeot
Pidgeot! [Yes! I am long overdue for one!]
[The flock bid farewell to Pidgeot assuring that they can run the forest quite well on their own. Pidgeot bids farewell to his former group as well before returning to Ash, finally fulfilling the promise that Ash would come back for Pidgeot.]
Pidgeot, it's so awesome to have you back!
Remember what we saw Gary the other day?
Pikachu? [What about it?]
He asked me... he asked me how close I got into becoming a Pokémon Master. Being Champion isn't my goal. The thing is I still think of myself as a challenger. I wanna go on a lot more adventures, meet lots more Pokémon, and take everything I learned every day and put it to good use. That includes meeting Latios.
The thing is... I wanna be friends with all of the Pokémon in the world. That's what it means to be a Pokémon Master.
