Pokémon · Season 13
[As soon as Gliscor is sent out, it briefly loses balance, wincing in pain]
Gliscor looks a bit shaken, obviously reeling from the previous bout with Ninjask.
Gliscor, let’s see what you’ve learned from your training with the Air Battle Master! You ready?
[nods] Gliscor!
[thinking] I know Drapion’s battling style by now, and the only one who can turn the tables on Paul is Gliscor.
[After Gliscor lands a Giga Impact on Drapion and performed a mid-air somersault, much to Ash’s and Team Rocket’s amazement, and the confusion of Paul and his Drapion]
Now that's the way to be in an air battle!
Yeah! Gliscor's training is really paying off!
Right! And you can thank the Air Battle Master! [v.o.] Now Gliscor's safe even after not being able to move right after using Giga Impact!
Well done. That Stone Edge got my attention alright. So...PIN MISSILE!
[After Paul sent in Electivire]
[thinking] Electric-type moves have no effect on Gliscor, but still...
[turns to Ash] Gliscor, Gli-Gliscor. [Let me fight Electivire.]
But, Gliscor... [short pause] 'Kay, you've got yourself a deal. [Note: A lot of fans claim that Ash's Gliscor is better than Ash's Torterra just because it beat up Byron's Bastiodon and Paul's Drapion. However, those are the only two battles Gliscor has won. Gliscor needs more wins to be 'better' than Torterra as well as not being underutilize throughout the series.]
[recalling his Electivire] Thank you. Good battle, Electivire. Hm?
Infernape! [What do you think?]
Well... huh? [Infernape collapses but luckily Ash manages to catch him]
[At Veilstone City, Reggie talks to his own Staraptor and Swalot, along with Paul's Torterra, Honchkrow, Weavile and Ursaring]
I'm sorry, but Paul lost. [The Pokemon all groan in sadness] But you know the battle will just make Paul stronger still. As soon as Paul gets back, then we'll have a battle. [The Pokemon all cheer in happiness]
Infernape's gotten a lot stronger.
Yeah, sure has, Paul. Are you going?
I lost, Ash, didn't I? So there's no reason to stay. I'm going to go back to Snowpoint City and request another battle with Brandon.
Got ya. Good luck, Paul.
Yeah...thanks, you too.
Paul...and Ash. Someday soon, they'll both be entering the Champion League and how I look forward to that day.
[Just then the boat rings signalling that it is about to leave]
So...I'll see you. [walks away saddened that karma had finally caught up to him]
One more thing, Paul! Let's battle again real soon!
Pika, Pika! (Take care, Paul!)
[Paul is shocked by the proposal but has a warm friendly smile. He waves goodbye to Ash in a friendly matter without looking back, finally acknowledging Ash as a worthy trainer]
[after recalling Darkrai, who finally lost for once] You have definitely proved you earned your spot in the semi-final round. To think I'm using my second Pokémon right here in this Poké Ball. LET'S GO! [Seconds later, Tobias summons...a Latios?!? Tobias is universally hated by fans for first appearing in the middle of the League arc with little build up and using Mythicals and Legendaries in the League. Good thing Cynthia is still Champion.]
Bingo! My favorite bling!
[laughs] Is it gold? Silver? Platinum?
Rubies or sapphires? Although diamonds and pearls rock too!
It's not quite that black and white.
Hey, that's my bottlecap!
You may have lost a bottlecap but you've gained your life!
Yeah, word up.
That was...my life.
[Pikachu and Piplup are sitting on the floor having Pokémon food for breakfast in separate bowls]
[off camera] Boys, the boat to Kanto leaves this afternoon, so be sure you're not late.
[The camera cuts to a better angle with Johanna, Dawn, Ash and Brock sitting at the table]
Right.
I want to make sure I buy plenty of Sinnoh gifts for everyone, so let's get an early start.
Good idea.
[The camera cuts to Piplup]
[off camera] Well, you don't have to rush out of here too quickly.
I want to thank you two so much for everything you did for Dawn on your journey together. [The camera pans left to Brock and Ash] I can't tell you what a wonderful experience it's been for her as a trainer and coordinator.
There's no need to thank us. Travelling with Dawn has been lots of fun.
So, Ash, do you think you're going to battle in another league again?
Hmmm, I don't know yet. First, I definitely want to go back to Pallet Town and thank my Pokémon for all the hard work they've put in for me.
Also, I'm certain your mother is really looking forward to you returning home. [The camera cuts to Piplup's worried eyes] And the same goes for Brock, of course.
[off camera] Yeah.
[off camera] I hope so.
[off camera] Maybe, I'll go to Kanto, too.
Piplup? [What do you mean?]
[off camera] We could go together.
[off camera] Dawn, I most forgot. Something came for you in the mail.
[off camera] For me?
[The camera cuts to Dawn at the table]
[off camera] Here. [Gives Dawn a magazine with Paris and her Lopunny on the front cover]
Poké Chic?
Remember Hermione, the editor? [Dawn picks up the magazine] You met her at the Hearthome Collection.
I do remember. [The camera cuts to a picture of Hermione, Dawn, Buneary, Paris and Lopunny which is hanging on the wall] She's that awesome Pokémon stylist.
[off camera] Right, that's like a fashion designer for Pokémon.
Not only that, you won the Hearthome Collection, along with Buneary. Pikachu and I entered, but...
[A flashback to when Ash and Pikachu wore curly wigs and striped loincloths]
You two sure got a lot of laughs!
[starts fantasising about Paris] Though I was much more interested in Paris, the Pokémon stylist idol!
Croagunk! [Quit your fantasizing!] [Poison jabs Brock]
Since when is it against the law to dream?! [Falls back on his chair]
Croa...[Just now...]
[The camera cuts to Dawn and her mum]
So what did Hermione have to say?
She said she wanted to talk to you about your Buneary.
Yeah? Buneary?
Piplup? [What's happening?]
[Later, back at Dawn's house, everyone is watching a battle on television]
Now, battling for the title of Champion Master, it's Flint of the Elite Four's Infernape versus Champion Cynthia's Garchomp! [Flint speaks, but his voice is inaudible] And Flint commands Infernape to use Flare Blitz!
[The camera zooms in on Ash's left eye and Ash starts fantasising as Infernape uses Flare Blitz, but Cynthia's Garchomp flies away from the attack and uses Draco Meteor. Then, the English opening theme, We Will Carry On!, plays as Infernape and Garchomp battle it out]
It's about you, it's about me. It's about hope, it's about dreams. It's about friends that work together, to claim their destiny. It's about reaching for the sky, (Pokémon) Having the courage and willing to try. It's about never giving up, so hold your head up, and we will carry on... [Ash imagines himself being in place of Flint] It's about reaching for the sky, (Pokémon) Having the courage and willing to try. It's about never giving up, so hold your head up, and we will carry on... [Infernape faints] Sinnoh League Victors.
[Cynthia has just defeated Flint without breaking too much of a sweat]
Infernape is down, unable to take out Cynthia's Garchomp after defeating two of her Pokémon. So once again, Cynthia defends her title as Champion Master and remains on her throne. Can anyone beat her?
[standing up] Yeah, I can! [Little did Ash realise, his wish would come true in the future...]
That came out of nowhere.
Piplup. [That's a shocker.]
No way, Dawn. It's always on my mind. Someday, somehow, I'm going to win the Champion League and become Champion Master. [Again, little did Ash realise, that his wish becoming a Champion Master will come true but not in the way he expected...]
[Pikachu jumps up on Ash's left shoulder]
Pika. Pika, Pika. [Yep. You'll get your chance!]
[to Pikachu] You're right - and, of course, that means I'll finally be a Pokémon Master.
[The camera cuts to Brock]
[off camera] Pikachu! [Can't wait!]
[off camera] Awesome, your big dream.
[Brock stands up]
Hey, guys. There's something that I've wanted to tell you.
What?
The thing is, after watching you and Dawn going for your dreams, I've decided I need to go for a dream of my own. That's why I'm planning to use all of my experience... to become a Pokémon Doctor.
A Pokémon Doctor?
Pika! [Cool!]
Lup. [Impressive.]
But to become a doctor, I'll have to study hard, which means I won't have time to continue on our journey.
I understand. Go for it, Brock!
Good luck!
Pikachu! [Go chase your dream!]
Piplup! [Best of luck!]
Thanks, you two. Becoming a doctor will let me help out Pokémon from all over the world.
So, Ash will be a Pokémon Master and Brock a Pokémon Doctor, and I'll be Top Coordinator. Sounds good to me! And no need to worry.
Whenever you say, "No need to worry," that's when I worry the most.
No need, Ash - this time, I'm right!
[Ash, Dawn and Brock laugh]
[Final lines in the Diamond & Pearl series. Ash and Brock have arrived back in the Kanto region and they are now looking at a signpost]
I guess this is it.
Yeah.
[They shake hands with each other, wishing each other the best of luck]
You can do it, Pokémon Doctor Brock.
Pokémon Master Ash, you can too.
[clasping arms together] Yes!
Pikachu!
[Then, they split up and go separate ways. Later, Ash and Pikachu have reached a hill that overlooks Pallet Town]
There's Pallet Town. Let's go, Pikachu.
Pika!
[Ash and Pikachu start running down the hill towards Pallet Town. Meanwhile, the camera pans up from where they left off and shows Pallet Town in the horizon. Then, a text reading NEXT TIME, A NEW BEGINNING! appears]
