-I want to be the very best
Like no one ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause
I will travel across the land
Searching far and wide
Each Pokémon to understand
The power that's inside
Pokémon, gotta catch 'em all
It's you and me
[CRASH!]
I know it's my destiny
Pokémon
Oh, you're my best friend
In a world we must defend
Pokémon, gotta catch 'em all
A heart so true
Our courage will pull us through
You teach me and I'll teach you
Pokémon
Gotta catch 'em all
Gotta catch 'em all

Narrator:
Ash and his friends
find themselves
in beautiful Grandpa Canyon.
Our heroes will soon discover
that this natural wonder
holds an ancient secret.
[ALL GASP]
What's going on down there?
[PEOPLE CHATTERING]
I wonder what everybody's doing
with those picks and shovels.
-Don't you know anything?
-Huh?
[TRUMPET FANFARE]
Ash, not only late as usual
but clueless too.
Hey, it's Gary.
Uh, why are you dressed
like that?
Ha!
Don't tell me you never heard
about the Pokémon Discovery.
Even a nerd like you
should have heard
about the great fossil rush.
Together:
The great fossil rush?
CHEERLEADERS: Gary, Gary
he's our man!
If he can't find them,
no one can!
Thank you!
Thank you to all my loyal fans!
I got to go.
I got to find
all the fossils quick
before anyone else does.
Can't waste my precious time
hanging around
with a loser like you.
Loser?
-Easy!
-Ash?
That know-it-all!
Ah!
I'm gonna find a Pokémon fossil
before Gary even starts digging.
That'll show him
who the real loser is.
I don't feel right
about digging up
old Pokémon fossils,
especially after they've
been resting in the earth
for such a long time.
If they've been
lying underground
for thousands of years,
maybe they'd like
a little fresh air.
I think it's your brain
that needs fresh air.
Who asked you?
Jigglypuff.
Ha!
Puff, puff!
Jigglypuff!
Puff, puff.
Puff?
[INHALES SHARPLY]
Puff!
[ALL GRUNTING]
[GASPS]
[LAUGHS]
Success!
My first Pokémon fossil!
CHEERLEADERS: Yay!
Gary, Gary, he's the best!
Found a fossil before the rest!
Go, Gary!
Hmm.
Impressive, isn't it?
Found it on my first try.
Looks like a brain
from an extinct Pokémon.
-This is-
-A brain?
It's fossilized Pokémon manure.
Huh?
[GROANS]
CHEERLEADERS: Ew, yuck!
Gross!
Wow.
Look at all the people digging.
Pika.
We better hurry
before all the fossils
are dug up.
All these people digging,
but nobody's
found any fossils yet.
I wonder
if this great fossil rush
is really for real.
Sure it is!
What's taking those two so long?
ALL: Huh?
Humans.
The only thing you can depend on
is that they're
always undependable.
BOTH: Ta-da!
Prepare for trouble.
Yes, and make it double.
To protect the world
from devastation...
To unite all peoples
within our nation...
To denounce the evils
of truth and love...
To extend our reach
to the stars above.
Jessie.
James.
Team Rocket.
Blast off at the speed of light.
Surrender now or prepare to-
Ooh!
-Hiyah!
Cut the poetry.
I bet you two clowns
didn't even plant the dynamite
like you were supposed to!
Wrong again, furball!
Meowth!
[ROCKS RUMBLE]
Of course we planted
the dynamite.
Once we blast Grandpa Canyon
to smithereens,
we'll be able to scoop up
all those Poké fossils.
[YELLS]
Next time, I'll make fossils
out of you!
Did you hear that?
They're gonna blow up
this whole canyon!
All the people
who are digging here
are gonna get caught
in the blast.
Pikachu and I will stop them.
You two, spread the word
to run for it.
There's no time to lose!
Let's go!
[LAUGHS EVILLY]
Pretty soon, we'll have
all the Pokémon fossils
to ourselves.
[PANTING]
Hold it right there!
Oh, it's that pest again.
Always messing up our plans.
But this time, you're too late.
The fuse is already lit.
Whoa!
I got to stop 'em!
Squirtle, I choose you!
Squirtle, squirtle!
There's no time to lose.
Squirtle, squirt out that fuse.
Squirtle!
Squirtle!
[GURGLING]
Squirtle, after it!
Squirtle!
Whoa! Squirtle.
Pika!
Arbok, go!
Go, Weezing.
Keep that fuse lit.
Weezing!
Arbok.
Squirtle!
You can do it, Squirtle!
Ah, stop that twerp!
[FLAME CRACKLING]
Keep squirting!
Quickly!
Don't let it hit the fuse!
-Come on!
They're getting away!
Hurry, you slowpokes!
We got to put it out somehow!
You're running like slugs!
Faster, Arbok!
There's not much time!
Hurry up, Weezing.
Weezing, Sludge Attack now.
[ALL YELLING]
Pika, pika, pika.
We're not gonna get it.
[PANTING]
Huh?
[ALL YELLING]
Oh, look out!
Pika!
Crash!
[ALL YELLING]
[ALL GROANING]
No!
The dynamite!
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
[ALL SCREAM]
Pika!
[ALL SCREAMING]
Pikachu!
[ELECTRICITY ZAPPING]
ALL: Huh?
Ding!
[LOUD ZAPPING]
[LOUD RUMBLING]
[ALL SCREAMING]
Squirtle.
-Ash!
-Pikachu!
Squirtle.
Squirtle!
What a disaster!
We've got to get them out.
Mm, let's go!
Jigglypuff?
Squirtle, squirtle!
Squirtle, squirtle!
Squirtle.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
Jigglypuff.
[CHEERS AND APPLAUSE]
[JAZZY MUSIC]
Squirtle, squirtle, squirtle.
[ALL GROAN]
Jiggly?
[INHALES SHARPLY]
Puff!
[WATER DRIPPING]
[GROANS SOFTLY]
Pika.
[ALL GROAN]
Where are we?
Looks like we got blown
all the way to the moon.
Or down to the center
of the earth.
-Huh?
-Huh?
This is a cave.
The dynamite must have blown
a hole in the roof
and we fell in.
We must be buried deep
under the earth's crust.
BOTH: Buried?
This is all your fault,
you twerp!
If you hadn't tried
to put out that fuse,
we never would have
fallen down here.
Hey, you're the crooks
who planted all that dynamite
up there in the first place!
Pikachu!
What difference does it make
who got us down here?
All that matters
is getting out of here
in one piece.
Look up there!
ALL: Huh?
[ALL YELL]
The roof of the cave is blocked!
Hmm.
[CHUCKLES EVILLY]
James, it sounds like
you have an answer
to our problem.
-Hmm?
We're all doomed.
Huh?
That's not the answer
I wanted to hear!
There must be some way out.
Chu.
Pi?
What's up, Pikachu?
-Pika, pika!
-Huh?
[FOREBODING MUSIC]
[BOTH SCREAM]
I don't think
we're in here alone.
What are they?
ALL: Who's that Pokémon?
It's Kabutops!
Kabutops.
[ALL QUIVERING]
Let's see.
-[ELECTRONIC VOICE]
Omanyte and Omastar.
Kabuto and Kabutops.
It is believed
that these Pokémon
became extinct
tens of thousands of years ago.
The details of their behavior
is shrouded in mystery.
Though some have speculated
that they may still exist,
none of these Pokémon
have ever been seen alive.
[BOTH YELL EXCITEDLY]
We're going to be rich!
We'll open
a prehistoric Pokémon park
that'll be bigger
than Poké World!
Even the boss
will be impressed with us.
Ah, I could get my own talk show
or even my own cartoon!
Those Pokémon don't seem
as happy about this
as you guys do.
Chu.
Just look at those eyes.
These Pokémon seem really angry.
They look like
they just woke up.
Maybe these Pokémon
weren't fossilized
but were just sleeping.
That's it!
The dynamite
must have woken them up
after thousands of years.
Some alarm clock!
-Ugh!
Never mind.
Let's just capture them!
BOTH: Pokéball, go!
Kabu.
[YELLS]
Ka!
-Kabuto.
-Omastar.
[POKÉMON GROWLING]
[ALL YELL]
They have us trapped!
There's no place to run!
We have to battle!
Charmeleon, I choose you!
Char!
Charmeleon,
use your flame to stop them!
Hmm.
[GROWLS]
Char.
[SIGHS]
It still won't obey me.
Kabutops!
[ALL GROWLING]
[ALL SCREAMING]
[POKÉMON GROWLING]
-Whoa!
-Pika!
[ALL YELLING]
[POKÉMON GROWLING]
[ALL YELLING AND GROWLING]
Kabu... tops!
Pika!
Team Rocket blew the canyon up
with dynamite!
Ash must be trapped down
under these boulders.
You've got to help us!
The bulldozers
can't make it down here.
We'll have to dig by hand.
I'll go and get some help.
[BOTH GROAN]
[SIGHS]
Go, Geodude!
Geo.
Geodude!
Help us move this pile of rocks!
Dude.
Geodude, geodude, geodude.
[ALL GRUNTING]
Listen, Ash, you better hold on.
Don't forget you still owe me
a new bike.
[ALL YELLING AND GROWLING]
Arbok! Weezing!
What are you doing?
Why are you running away
from them?
You have to chase them!
[BOTH GASP]
[GROWLS]
Go on, Pikachu.
Give 'em your Electric Shock!
Pikachu!
[ELECTRICITY ZAPPING]
Pika, pika!
-[SIGHS]
-Pika!
Electricity isn't gonna work.
Charmeleon!
Meh.
Char.
Aw!
It's useless!
BOTH: Kabutops!
[SCREAMS]
BOTH: Ka!
Kabutops?
-Huh?
-Pika, pi!
[POKÉMON MURMURING]
I don't understand
what happened.
A miracle.
This is a miracle!
We're alive!
[DISTANT WHOOSHING]
Oh, no, I hear something else!
[WHOOSHING]
[ALL SCREAM]
Smack!
[GROANS]
[SCREECHES]
[ALL QUIVERING]
-[ELECTRONIC VOICE]
Aerodactyl,
an extinct flying Pokémon.
Its hard fangs suggest
that it was a carnivore.
Its sharp claws
were probably used
to capture prey.
What's a carnivore?
That means
it thinks we're dinner!
That must be why
the others ran away.
I hope it don't like cat food.
[SCREECHES]
[ALL SCREAMING]
Charmeleon!
Looks like Charmeleon's
finally ready to fight!
Good luck!
Char!
[GROANS]
A first-round knockout.
[ALL GROAN]
ALL: Huh?
Ash!
Hey, Ash!
Get us out of here!
And hurry up!
[ALL GASP AND SCREAM]
[SCREECHES]
[YELLS]
Pikachu!
[ROCKS RUMBLING]
Over here!
Hurry up!
Let's go!
[YELLS]
Charmeleon!
Pikachu!
Pikachu, where did Ash go?
Pika!
-Huh?
-Huh?
[SCREECHES]
[GROANING]
[SCREECHING]
-Watch out!
-Watch out!
Jigglypuff.
Huh?
Jigglypuff!
Jiggly, jiggly, Jigglypuff!
Hey, there's Jigglypuff!
I wonder what it's doing here.
Oh, I get it!
-What?
Jigglypuff!
It wants to sing!
I'll get Jigglypuff to sing
to Aerodactyl!
Great idea!
Jigglypuff,
if you help us out now,
later we'll listen to your song
as much as you want.
-[SQUEALS]
Jigglypuff!
[LAUGHS]
Somebody get me down!
[GROWLS]
Char!
Aero!
[SCREECHES]
Char, char, char, char, char.
[ROARS]
[ALL GASP]
Squirtle, squirt.
Pika?
[DRAMATIC MUSIC]
[ZAPPING]
[ROARS LOUDLY]
[FLAMES BLASTING]
Whoa! Charizard!
Amazing!
It evolved into Charizard!
[ROARS]
[SCREECHES] Aero!
[YELLS]
[SCREECHING]
Huh?
Charizard!
[ROARS]
[YELLS]
[GROANS]
Charizard,
you evolved because you wanted
to rescue me
when I got into trouble.
I thought you didn't want me
as your trainer,
but now I see I was wrong.
[ROARS]
[FLAMES BLAST]
Whoa!
[YELLS]
I was right.
Looks like the only reason
Charizard evolved
was to battle Aerodactyl.
[FLAMES BLASTING]
Pika, pi!
Careful, Ash!
Pretty soon,
Ash is gonna be too overcooked
for Aerodactyl to eat.
Please, Jigglypuff,
sing us your slumber song.
[ECHOING] Jiggly!
[SINGING]
Jigglypuff
Jiggly-y-puff
Jigglypuff
Jiggly
Hey, stay awake, Aerodactyl!
If you fall asleep, we'll both-
-[SINGING] Puff
Jiggly-y-puff
[GROWLS]
[SINGING] Jigglypuff
[BOTH YAWN]
-Pika, pika.
-Squirtle.
[ALL YAWNING]

Jiggly-y-puff
Jigglypuff
Jigglypuff?
Jigglypuff, puff!
Puff!
Puff.
[MARKER SQUEAKS]
Puff.
Jigglypuff.
[SNORING]
Some of you are claiming
that you saw
a prehistoric Pokémon here
in the canyon.
That is ridiculous!
Let me assure you,
it was only a dream
caused by Jigglypuff's song.
I must also announce
that due to the danger
of further cave collapses,
no more digging
will be permitted!
A dream, she says!
It was more like a nightmare!
Hmm.
That Aerodactyl sure
didn't seem like a dream.
Cheerleaders:
Gary dreams the best!
Better than the rest!
He's the best from east to west!
I guess they're right.
[MUFFLED LAUGHTER]
Where'd Jigglypuff go?
Were you hoping for an encore?
Well, at least it deserved
to take a bow.
Jigglypuff and Charizard
really saved the day this time!
That Aerodactyl
is one of a kind.
It's too bad you couldn't
capture it, Ash.
But I think Aerodactyl
and the others
would be happier
just going back to sleep.
Maybe you're right.
Hey, I almost forgot!
-Huh?
-Huh?
I found this when I woke up!
-Huh?
-Ah!
Are you sure it's all right
for you to just take that?
What do you mean?
Do you think
I should have left it with Joy?
[GRUNTS]
Okay, Ash,
I'll raise it for you.
But I could raise it myself.
You would have dropped it
and broken it anyway.
I would not!
Don't worry, Ash!
I'll take good care of it!
Hey, wait up!
Give it back!
Finders keepers!
NARRATOR: And so our heroes
leave Grandpa Canyon,
resting place
of the ancient Pokémon,
with a souvenir.
Hmm.
Maybe they should have
just bought the t-shirts.
Meanwhile,
another group of tourists
is still enjoying the sights.
[POKÉMON SNORING]
Hey, up there, somebody help us!
We don't want to be extinct too!
[YAWNS]
-Ah!
-Shh.
You're gonna wake it up.
[ALL QUIVER]
[SINGING]
ALL: Rockabye, Dactyl
please don't eat us
[SNEEZES]
[AERODACTYL SCREECHES]
Don't go away.
The Pokérap is next!
[SINGING]
-Pokémon
Okay, guys,
we got to rap some Pokémon.
You just do the singing.
I'll take care of the hard part.
Let's get it on.
[SINGING]
-I want to be the best
There ever was
To beat all the rest
Yeah, that's my cause
Catch 'em, catch 'em,
gotta catch 'em all

I'll search across the land
Look far and wide
Release from my hand
The power that's inside

That's it for now.
Tune in tomorrow.
We'll rap at you some more.
There's ,
so watch Monday through Friday.
You'll catch 'em all!
