Pokémon · Season 18
[Chespin walks into the bleachers grumbling over the fact that Clemont did not pick him for the battle]
Huh? You're not battling, Chespin?
Chespin-pin! [No, I am not!]
Then you can cheer with all of us! [Braixen and Pancham convince Chespin to do so as well]
Chespin Chespin! [Ok then! I'll do that!]
[recalls Heliolisk] Great job Heliolisk! Take a good rest! You surprised me. I really thought I had you on the ropes. Tell me what that opening you saw was.
Its frills.
Huh? What about them?
You see, every time Heliolisk uses an attack, it stops moving for a second. So all I had to do was watch and wait for that to happen. [Everyone stares in shock] It happens really fast, but with Hawlucha's speed, we could pull it off and then Hawlucha's High Jump Kick did the rest.
That girl's a keeper! Please take care of my big brother?
[Clemont grabs Bonnie with his Aipom Arm]
Ugh, please! I told you to stop this a million times!
But, Clemont, she looks really, really, really nice!
I don't need your help! I can find my own girlfriend, thank you!
When?
That girl's [Valerie] a keeper! Will you take care of my brother?
[confused] I'm a keeper?
[embarrassed] Ah, Ah! It's nothing, it's nothing! Bonnie, stop it!
But you can see how pretty Valerie is.
Bagon, use Dragon Breath! [Bagon complies and hits Spritzee easily] Yeah! I landed the first attack! Huh?
[The smoke clears and Spritzee appears unscathed!]
Spritzee. [That's all you got?]
How can it be? I'm sure it made contact. [It did, but he's about to find out why it did not work. As Sawyer ponders about it, Spritzee flies towards Valerie, who snickers a bit]
Ah, you see, Spritzee's a Fairy-type and Dragon-type moves have no effect at all on Fairy-types! [What is also worse is the fact that Dragon-types are weak to Fairy types]
[Valerie walks over to her podium and takes a bow, finally meeting Ash face to face.]
I welcome you all to my gym. I believe your name is Ash, right? How many gym badges do you have?
I have five of them right now and after this, I'll have six gym badges!
[giggles] Such spirit. You certainly are confident, aren't you? But I won't let you win that easily.
[Valerie interacts with her Sylveon by speaking Sylveon's language, much to Ash and Pikachu's shock]
It's just like Serena said. Valerie talks with Pokémon.
[hearing this, she looks back to Ash, but cheerfully admits...] Honestly, I've always wanted to be a Pokémon, so I managed to learn how to speak with them.
Awesome.
It's true I can't communicate with all Pokémon but I can understand what most of what my Pokémon are telling me.
She learned to talk to Pokémon because she wanted to BE a Pokémon?!
I use Fairy-type Pokémon in my Gym. I happened to be quite strong, so watch your step.
[Sylveon swings Fletchinder around with its feelers]
So what do you think, Ash? Sylveon's ribbons can do more than just flutter beautifully, you see. While Fairy Types are graceful, they all possess dangerous hidden fangs.
[Sylveon collapses and faints from Fletchinder's Steel Wing.]
[horrified] Sylveon! [The Furisode Girls all stare in shock as well] Kali, make the call!
Right....Sylveon is unable to battle. Fletchinder wins.
[Note: Since Kali is identified as the one in the Black Furisode, the other three Furisode Girls are based off the ones the player faces in Valerie's Gym in the Pokémon X and Y games.]
Valerie's using Trick Room!
And if so, that could only mean one thing...
Valerie's totally serious about this battle!
[Trick Room deactivates]
[disappointed] Dear, we're out of time...
Fletchinder, use Steel Wing! [Valerie is shocked by this attack]
[Fletchinder struck Spritzee with Steel Wing]
Alright!
Not so fast. [Ash is confused] MOONBLAST! [Spritzee does so, knocking out Fletchinder]
Thank you, but I must say, your multiple Flame Charges were a good idea. It's been a while since I've been surprised like that.
That Moonblast. That was another dangerous hidden fang.
Ash took much too long and he paid a heavy price for doing that. [Waiting too long for Trick Room to deactivate in order to strike]
[As Ash sends in Hawlucha into battle, Hawlucha strikes multiple poses]
[highly amused] My, my! Quite an amusing Pokémon!
[Hawlucha gets hit by Spritzee's Moonblast causing him to hit the Trick Room wall, but luckily, he is okay to continue]
Yep, it's strong.
[surprised] My, you can talk to your Pokémon too, right?
Not really talking. It's more like I can sense what they mean. I just kind of know. [Both Pikachu and Hawlucha agree with him]
[admirably] You have much promise.
