Pokémon · Season 23, Episode 35

Goh, Ash and others in “Gotta Catch a What?!”

[Goh's Pikachu leads the group to a canyon, where a large pack of Pikachu are digging around.]

Whoa...

Look at at all the Pikachu!

[The Pikachu smash rocks, and burrow holes in the ground.]

I wonder what they're searching for.

[One of the Pikachu notice a green luster within some rock. He calls the others before using Iron Tail to excavate the source of the luster: a certain evolution item.]

It's a Thunder Stone!

[The wild Pikachu touches the stone, and evolves into Raichu]

WRWild Raichu

Rai-rai!

Whoa! It's a Raichu!

I get it now. When a Pikachu touches a Thunder Stone, it evolves into a Raichu! That's it! The Pikachu are all here to search for Thunder Stones!

[And, speak of the devil, Goh's Pikachu finds one.]

GSGoh's Pikachu

Pika! (Here you go!)

ASAsh's Pikachu

Pika! Pika-pika! (What!? No way!)

[Goh's Pikachu, still carrying the stone, runs after Ash's around his Trainer's legs, refusing to accept the Thunder Stone!]

Hey! Calm down, buddy!

[The two Pikachu run behind a large rock, where a blue shine is seen from behind. Not good...]

Pikachu!

[A male Raichu jumps from behind the rock. Could it be...?]

You didn't, did you?

It evolved??

RRaichu

Rai!

[Luckily, Ash's Pikachu is still running away from Goh's. What a relief! That Raichu was still a wild one.]

Well...it's not yours.

Seems that way.

[Ash's Pikachu jumps onto Ash's head.]

ASAsh's Pikachu

Pikachu! (I said "no"!)

If Pikachu evolves, it gets stronger, right? I thought Pikachu wants to evolve.

No way!

Huh?

My Pikachu has always wanted to get stronger as a Pikachu. [to Goh's Pikachu] Since Pikachu feels that way, we don't need it. Sorry.

[Goh's Pikachu ears droop before she perks up, giving the Thunder Stone to her Trainer.]

You want me to have it?

GSGoh's Pikachu

Pika! (That's right.)

Okay. [takes the stone] I guess mine wants to stay the same, just like yours does!

[Ash nods.]

Yeah. I believe that a Pokémon should evolve when they want to.
