21x04 - Don't Ignore the Small Stufful!

[bunniefuu]

[Lillie] We visited the Aether Foundation
after receiving an invitation from my mom.

Everyone came along,
so it was so much fun!

I was surprised when a runaway Ditto
disguised itself to look like Snowy!

I’m so glad we found it.

Even though we had a great time,

I know I have to stop my mom from
treating me like a child, no matter what.

That’s how she’s been making me feel
and I don’t like it.

Pika! Pika!

-Feeling good there, Pikachu?
-[chuckles] Pikachu!

Lycanroc.

-[chuckles]
-Pika! Pika!

Wow, it looks like it feels great!

-Rub-a-dub-dub! Rub-a-dub-dub!
-[Pikachu chuckles]

-[Ash laughs]
-Pika! Pika!

[Nebby] Ooh!

Do you like that?
It’s poufy just like you are!

Pika! Pika!

[gurgles and gibbers]

[Ash] There! All done, buddy.

-Brr! Pika!
-Hey! Man, that’s cold!

-[Nebby] Brr!
-[Ash and Pikachu laugh]

-Guess who’s next.
-[Litten grunts]

-Litten, wait!
-Pika?

-[barks happily]
-[Ash and Pikachu scream]

Okay, sure. You can be up next.

-How does that sound?
-Roc-mm!

[Lycanroc grunts happily]

You’ll be so clean,
you’ll look even cooler than cool!

-Roc. Roc.
-Come on, Lycanroc, stop it!

You’re getting me all wet! [laughs]

A Lycanroc that likes water and being
shampooed, even though it’s a Rock type.

Updating data!

I know... that’s got to feel great, right?

-Ro, ro.
-[Ash] Huh?

-Ta-da!
-Pika?

-Hey, Ash, what is that?
-It’s Pikachu! Pretty good, huh?

It doesn’t look like Pikachu at all.

All right. Then how’s this? Litten, see?

It’s the same as before.

-[Ash] Meow!
-[Litten screeches]

[Litten grunts]

[Lycanroc roars and grunts]

-Oh, man! Whoopsie daisy.
-Pika.

[Litten snarls]

Lycanroc, are you okay?

Ly. Brr!

Ly? Ly?

[screams]

-[meows]
-[Lycanroc grunts]

[roars and growls]

[meows]

Lycanroc, I’ll clean you up right away.

That's as angry as I’ve ever seen it.

[snarls and growls]

-[meows]
-Whoa! Hold on! Come on, cut it out!

Hey, that’s enough!

[meows]

-[growls]
-Oh!

[Lycanroc grunts and Ash screams]

Man, that was a surprise.
You got a little too angry there.

I mean, it’s not like Litten did it on
purpose or something.

Roc!

I wonder why Lycanroc got so upset.

You know, I think it got mad
because its mane got dirty.

You’d get mad, too, if your Laki wig
got dirty, right, Rotom?

Right! I get it now!

Lycanroc, I’m proud of you.

Your Dusk Form’s awesome!

-Roc!
-[both chuckle]

Now stay still! We’ll be done in no time!
Just hang in there.

Gladion would be completely surprised
if he saw you.

Roc?

I wonder what Gladion’s up to.

[Nebby burbles]

-[Ash gasps]
-Pika!

Oh, they teleported again!

-[Rowlet hoots]
-Litten.

-[all gasp and screams]
-Pika! Pika!

-Uh?
-[growls]

[groans] That was some fall.

[Pinsirs grunt and hiss]

-[all scream]
-Oh, Pinsir!

[all] Pinsir!

-[Lycanroc barks]
-Sorry, Pinsir!

[Pinsirs growl]

Use Air Slash!

[Silvally growls]

[all grunt]

-[Ash groans]
-Pika! Pi! Pika!

-Oh, man. That was a close one.
-Pika?

-Gladion!
-Pika!

[Nebby gurgles]

-Thanks so much!
-[Silvally growls]

-Wow, what is that? A Pokémon?
-Pika!

I wasn’t expecting you to be the one
to see it.

[Nebby gurgles]

-[Silvally growls]
-[whimpers]

-Hey! Huh?
-[Nebby whimpers]

No way. Is that...

-[Nebby sobs]
-Hey, Nebby, please don’t cry.

Pika! Pikachu!

Gladion, could you do something
about that Pokémon?

It's all right Silvally. Calm down.

-It’s okay.
-[Nebby sobs]

-Thanks a lot, Pikachu.
-Pi? Pika! Pika!

-Ash?
-Huh?

It looks like it’s an Ultra Beast.
Am I right?

Whoa. You know about Ultra Beasts?

What is it with you?
It’s really dangerous.

-Nah, it’s not dangerous at all!
-[Nebby chuckles]

Then you don’t know about Ultra Beasts.
You don’t have a clue!

-Huh?
-Pika?

-Gladion. You have to understand.
-[sighs]

See, I made a promise I'd look after it,
to Solgaleo and Lunala.

What? Solgaleo and Lunala?
The Legendary Pokémon?

Yeah, but I made the promise to them
in the middle of a dream.

[yawns and gurgles]

Here's what happened.
I was just thinking about you earlier

and then Nebby brought us all here.

You're saying you were teleported
and it was that Ultra Beast who did it?

Well...

Here.
I wanted to introduce you to Lycanroc.

[Gladion]
It’s not a Midnight Form or Midday Form.

Yeah. Pretty cool, right?

I decided to call it Lycanroc’s Dusk Form.

-Roc! Roc!
-[Ash chuckles]

Stop it. Come on! [laughs]

Come on! Cut it out! Stop! Stop! Stop!

That tickles! [laughs]

Man!

[Ash] Where are we?

[Gladion] Ten Carat Hill.

It’s a good place to avoid people.

Hey, it’d be awesome if you came
and visited Lillie once in a while.

Lillie’s doing really great.
You know what?

She’s managed to be able
to touch Pikachu now.

-She takes good care of Snowy, too.
-Huh?

Gladion, I’d like
to introduce you to Snowy.

-And this is my brother Gladion.
-[squeaks]

Wow. What do you know?

Know what else? Its name is Nebby
and Lillie named it!

Incredible. She named an Ultra Beast
and she named it Nebby, of all things.

Huh? What do you mean?

Yeah. I guess it's time you knew.

The reason why Lillie couldn’t touch
any Pokémon...

is because she was att*cked
by an Ultra Beast!

Huh?

[pants]

-Oh!
-[Lillie screams]

[pants]

I was so scared.

There was nothing I could do about it.

But it was this Silvally
who ultimately rescued us.

Still, Lillie was severely traumatized.

She experienced such fear that
it cast a deep shadow in her heart

and she became unable to touch Pokémon.

Oh, man. She never mentioned it.

She erased it from her memory.
It was that terrifying for her.

-Mm.
-It won't happen again.

I won't let her be terrorized.
I’ve got to protect her!

-[Silvally grunts]
-Lycan.

Look. I’m no longer the same person
I once was. I’m a Pokémon Trainer now.

We’re all getting stronger and stronger.

And it’s all so I can defeat
every last Ultra Beast!

[Ash gasps]

[Gladion]
They bring misfortune to everyone.

They should not exist in this world...
and Nebby is no exception.

-No way! Nebby’s not like that!
-How can you know that for sure?

If Nebby ever showed its true colors
as an Ultra Beast,

I’ll defeat Nebby, no doubt.

My Pokémon and me.

-With Silvally?
-Yes, with Silvally.

It was specifically created to defeat
Ultra Beasts.

[gasps] Created?

I can’t go into detail,
but no one is to know about it.

So, that’s why you’re here?

I’ve already said enough.

You’re the one who suddenly appeared
while we were training.

Sorry. You’re right.

But there’s got to be a reason why
an Ultra Beast would show up here now.

-It’s important. I need to know why.
-Why?

-Who are you anyway?
-Uh, who am I?

Ash from Pallet Town.

Why are you the one entrusted
with an Ultra Beast?

And what about my mother?
Did she agree to all of this?

Didn’t Solgaleo and Lunala think
the Ultra Beast would become dangerous?

What's going on here?

-Uh...
-And a few more things!

What about your Lycanroc?
What powers do you possess?

What kind of influence
do you have on Pokémon?

Hold on! Stop it! I don’t have the answers
for all that stuff!

-But... I know what we could do instead.
-Mm?

-Let’s have a battle!
-A battle?

You want to learn more about me, right?

Then let’s have a battle
and you can find out!

Not seeing the logic in this.

It’ll be good training for Silvally!

Don’t forget.
We never finished our battle before!

-Team Rocket messed it all up.
-You’re right about that.

-Silvally, what do you say?
-[growls positively]

-Awesome! Let’s do it!
-Lycanroc!

[Ash, Gladion] Who’s that Pokémon?

[Ash, Gladion] It’s Umbreon!

[Umbreon] Umbre! Umbre! Umbreon!

This is really strange.

Ash and all the others still
haven’t returned yet.

It’s highly probable that they’re on
some big adventure like last time.

So... a solve rate of %!

Alolan Detective Rotom’s conclusions
are never wrong!

It appears that the only evidence left
at the scene is this simple brush.

Hm. I’m beginning to suspect
a difficult case!

Litten! I need you to stop napping
right now,

so you can work for me
as my skilled assistant.

[Litten grumbles]

No motivation whatsoever.

Ring! Ring! [gasps]

I forgot! Today is the live broadcast

of "Alolan Detective Laki’s Greatest
Scenes Viewer’s Choice Special!"

There’s no point in watching
a viewer's special

unless you watch it in real time!
We’ve got to hurry, Litten! [pants]

[Litten meows]

Pika! Pika!

-I’m counting on you, Lycanroc.
-Roc!

That Lycanroc. What do you think about it?

Lycan!

Yeah, the eyes show how it’s grown.

-Lycan!
-Umbreon!

All right, then.
Let’s see how strong you are!

Witness the power of the Pokémon
with the mask!

-Silvally, let’s go!
-[growls]

Gladion, hold on. This is the first time
Silvally’s battling against a Pokémon

who has a Trainer, isn’t it?

[Gladion] Yes!

Ha! All right! Yeah!
I’m the first! [giggles]

Uh, is that something to be happy about?

Being the first at anything
is always great!

[exhales] What a strange kid.

-Now, let’s go, Lycanroc! Rock Throw!
-Roc!

[Lycanroc growls]

All right, use Double Hit!

[Silvally growls]

[grunts and roars]

Roc!

Pika!

-[Nebby gurgles]
-[Pikachu gasps]

Time to raise your att*ck power.
Now use Swords Dance!

[roars growls]

-Heads up! Here it comes!
-Roc!

[Gladion]
It’s all for defeating Ultra Beasts!

All right, use Crush Claw!

[growls]

[Lycanroc growls]

Now, lure it in and then use Bite!

[growling and grunting]

[roars]

[Lycanroc grunts]

-No, Lycanroc!
-[growls and grunts]

Lycanroc!

It’s faster than I thought!

Use Air Slash!

[growls and grunts]

-Quick, use Accelerock!
-Roc!

[grunts]

-[growls]
-[Gladion] Pretty good.

Offense is the greatest defense!

Now! Bite, let’s go!

Lycanroc!

-Double Hit now!
-[roars]

[growls] Roc!

[growls and groans]

-[gasps]
-Pika!

[snarls]

[yelps and snarls]

[gasps]

Oh!

Here we go again. Oh, no!

[Silvally grunts]

Hey.

[Lycanroc snarls]

Wow. You can still battle?

-Use Accel.
-Lycanroc!

-Oh
-[Pikachu and Nebby whimper]

[growls]

Lycanroc!

Roc! Roc! Roc! Roc! Roc! Roc! Roc!

[growling and grunting]

Something’s not right.

Lycanroc’s got work to do.

[grunting]

[roars]

-[both grunt]
-Wait, you two. Keep watching.

[Lycanroc growls]

Stop! Stop! Stop! [grunts]

[snarls]

-Pika! Pika!
-[whimpers]

-Pika! Pikachu!
-[sobs]

-[growls]
-Oh! Come on, Lycanroc! Calm down, please!

I’ll clean you up right away.

-Lycanroc! Roc!
-Oh!

It’s got growing up to do, too.
Is this a Dusk Form’s true power?

I just found out it can get this way!

Every time Lycanroc’s fur
gets messed up, it goes crazy!

-[snarls and yelps]
-Like that!

[wails]

-Pika!
-Whoa!

-Roc?
-[Nebby wails]

Pika! [grunts]

-Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!
-[both groan]

[groans and snarls]

[puzzled snarl]

-[whimpers]
-Pikachu!

-Lycanroc, are you okay?
-Roc!

I’m glad you’re all clean again.

Know what? Nebby probably didn’t
want you to be angry.

-Pika! Pika!
-[Nebby gurgles]

-Roc!
-Right. We’re all good.

-[growls happily]
-[laughs]

-I got it. There, there.
-[growls happily]

What do you want to do?
Do you want to stop?

No way! Let’s battle!

What’s done is done.

-Back to business! Let’s go, Lycanroc!
-Roc!

Silvally, let’s end it with one strike!
Use Swords Dance!

[roars and growls]

-Quick, use Accelerock!
-Roc! Roc! Roc!

-One more time! Use Accelerock again!
-Roc! Roc!

-Now, Crush Claw!
-[growls]

[growling and grunting]

[Lycanroc whimpers]

[Ash gasps]

[Lycanroc groans]

And that is that.

[pants] Lycanroc!

-Pika!
-[Nebby gurgles]

[groans]

Return!

It makes sense. I understand.

Now I know who you really are.

You see? We’re just us. That’s all.

It was good experience for Silvally.

That’s great!

-It’s tough for us, you and I.
-Huh?

With your Lycanroc and my Silvally,
they both have their very own quirks.

Looks like it’ll take time
until they truly become strong.

You’re right!
That’s why we should battle a whole lot

and get stronger and stronger!

[chuckles] Later.

Gladion, we should battle again!

Oh, that’s right.
Please promise me one thing.

Huh?

About seeing me today and also
seeing Silvally, don’t say a word.

Uh, yeah, sure!

-Especially to Lillie.
-Huh?

Promise me. I ask you because I trust you.

Hm. Got it.

All right! Let’s go home, too! Wait.

[groans] How are we supposed
to get home from here?

You’re asleep!

Take us home, Nebby, please! Oh!

Please! Nebby! I’m begging you! Wake up!

Pikachu!
