20x34 - Battle of Fire! Garagara Appears!!

Post by bunniefuu »

[narrator] The Akala Island
field trip now focuses

on the area around Wela Volcano.
What's in store for them today?

Pika.

I can't believe how many people
and Pokémon are out here.

-It looks lively, all right.
-This is the Wela Fire Festival.

This festival has been held
for over years.

Lots of history. Having fun, while
learning about Akala Island's traditions.

That's the subject of today's class.

-Let's go, everyone.
-Ah!

Kiawe's really into this.

He said he comes every year.

Hey, Ash? How would you like to help
Litten get stronger?

Huh? Of course I would. Sounds great.

That's what I thought.

-This festival's perfect for you.
-[chuckles]

Everyone. The exciting
Wela Fire Festival is about to start.

[cheering]

Hey. It's Olivia.

Let's give thanks to Wela Volcano
for nurturing Akala Island

by having a fiery good time.

-Sounds cool to me.
-Pika.

-[cheering and chanting]
-[all] Wela! Wela! Wela! Wela...

♪ I could get used to this heat
On my skin ♪

♪ I can feel every day
I'm a little bit stronger ♪

♪ I only wish each day was longer ♪

♪ Yeah! We're having fun in the sun ♪

♪ Week after week
It's just like I'm on vacation ♪

♪ Yeah! Now our journey's begun ♪

♪ Friends till the end
Number one's our destination ♪

♪ Under the Alolan sun
Pokémon! ♪

[growls]

Vul!

It looks like Olivia is performing
her duties as the island kahuna.

-She's so amazing.
-Sure. What's she putting on their heads?

It's a chunk of volcanic rock.

It's what's known as the Wela Crown.
It's made of cooled lava.

When Pokémon are crowned with it, they'll
become strong, like Wela Volcano itself.

-[chuckles]
-Pika!

And apparently it's especially
effective on Fire types.

I'm sure I've read a lot about that.

The reason Trainers
from other regions are visiting

is they heard about it by word of mouth.

It would be the perfect
opportunity for Litten.

Great, Litten. You'll see.
We're going to get you crowned

and then you'll get a lot stronger.

[meows]

-Of course, you too, bud.
-Pika.

Guys, let's go.

-What have we got to lose?
-[Lillie] Right.

[Sophocles] Hey, wait for me.

What about Turtonator?
Has it been crowned yet?

Last year. I was thrilled.

Your grandfather was the island kahuna,
wasn't he?

-Didn't he perform the crowning too?
-Hm.

[Darmanitan] Darman!

[Kiawe] When I was young,
it was my dream

to someday have
my grandpa crown my Pokémon too.

Oh, wow.

There's no doubt in my mind
your grandfather is happy

you came to the festival
with your Pokémon now.

Right.

[gibbers]

-Awesome. All right, we're up next!
-I'm glad you could join us.

Thanks.
Olivia, crown us, would you please?

[chuckles] Sure. Come here.

-Okay, go.
-[meows]

-Pika, pika.
-[meows]

May you receive the gift
of Wela Volcano's power... Uh!

[all gasp]

Marowak!

-What's that?
-Steenee.

Marowak!

What's going on?

Give me a moment.
Here's the data. Marowak, Alola Form.

A Fire and Ghost type.

The bone Marowak holds is precious to it
and its greatest w*apon.

It use the bone as a torch
to unleash its att*ck.

An Alolan Marowak...
Hey, give it back, please?

Marowak!

That does not belong to you.

-Give it back. Stop!
-Marowak.

-Marowak!
-[Ash] All right, enough already.

[all gasp]

[Marowak gibbers]

Man, it's getting on my nerves.

-We've got to stop it somehow.
-Marowak! Mar!

[all gasp and chattering]

-[man] What's it doing?
-Cut it out, Marowak.

-That's not yours.
-Marowak!

[both grunt]

-Come back! You're a thief!
-Olivia.

First, we need to calm everybody down.

-But how?
-I'll get it back. Let's go, Turtonator.

Kiawe, wait up! Pikachu, Litten, let's go.

-Pika!
-Ash, be careful!

Now, Heatmor, go.

[all yell]

-Marowak!
-Come back here.

[Kiawe] Ash, this way.

[pants] Huh?

Which way do we go?

The chance it went right is %.

The chance it went left is also %.

We can only pick one of them.

[pants] What's wrong?

Get a hold of yourself, Magmar.

-You okay?
-Hey there, dude.

Are you chasing after that Marowak?
I wouldn't... Ah!

Hey, dude. Are you chasing after
that Marowak, too?

Which way did Marowak go?

Hey, dude.
Are you chasing after that Marowak, too?

-I wouldn't do that--
-Which way did Marowak go?

[all] Which way did it go?
It went that way.

So weird.

[Marowak hums and sings]

[pants]

Wak! Marowak. Marowak?

Hand over that crown right now.

-Marowak...
-You want to battle me?

All right, then.
I'll take it back after I defeat you.

Turtonator.

Marowak. Maro! Marowak!

Flamethrower, let's go.

-Turto!
-Mar!

-Ah!
-Marowak!

All right, Dragon Tail.

Turto! Turto! Turto! Turto!

-Marowak!
-[groans]

Oh, no.

Maro! [grunts] Maro! Marowak!

-Turto!
-Maro! Maro! [gibbers]

-Marowak!
-Turto!

-[groans]
-Turtonator, you okay?

Marowak.

[grunts] Let's wrap this up in one sh*t.

-Go.
-Turto.

Maro.

All right, Inferno Overdrive.

[grunts] Turtonator!

Marowak.

Turt! Nat!

[Turtonator groans]

No. Turtonator!

Turtonator, are you all right?

-Maro, Maro...
-[Ash] Marowak, where are you?

Pika.

-They're in trouble.
-[meows]

Kiawe! Turtonator!

Marowak.

Who would've thought Kiawe
and Turtonator would be defeated?

We did our best.
We couldn't get the crown back.

[Kiawe grunts]

[all] Who's that Pokémon?

It's Marowak.

[Marowak]
Maro, maro, maro... Marowak.

Huh?

-Turto.
-Glad you're all healed.

-Looking good.
-Yeah, thanks.

-Pika.
-Turto.

-[meows]
-Your health is at %.

-I'm sorry, Turtonator.
-Turto?

I was preoccupied with the crown.

I wasn't paying attention
to the actual battle.

I didn't read Marowak's movements.

I assumed using a Z-Move
would assure us the win.

Nator.

I should've known better.

Grandpa taught me that battling is
observing and understanding your opponent.

I've always wanted to be a strong Trainer
who could connect with Pokémon

and protect everyone.

That's how my grandpa was.
That's how I've wanted to be.

Having you as my partner
and watching you wear the Wela crown,

it made me feel like I was that strong.

I wasn't. Even if you were crowned,
and even if we're able to use a Z-Move,

I never, ever should have become
content with that.

It's just like Wela Volcano,
burning within my heart

should always be my fiery desire
to get stronger.

Like Wela Volcano?
That's really something to go for.

It's a goal I'm not sure I can attain.

Come on. Got to dream big.

Let's dream big together.
Becoming a Pokémon Master is what I want.

Pikachu!

Ash never does things halfway.

You're right. I hate getting beaten
and staying beaten.

I'll defeat that Marowak,
then I'll get back that crown.

Now you're talking. I say we train.

-Yeah.
-Turto!

The best of luck to both of you.

-Here I come.
-Pika.

Right! All right, Turtonator.

Let's devise a strategy
to b*at that Marowak.

Turto!

Pikachu, use Quick att*ck.

Pika. Pi, pi, pi...

Turtonator, get ready.

Turto!

-Watch out for the spikes on its shell.
-Pika!

-Pika!
-Turto!

It dodged those spikes perfectly.

-Pikachu's good.
-Okay, buddy, run.

Pika! [pants]

All we have to do is avoid those spikes.
All right, use Iron Tail.

-Pika! Pika!
-Turto!

Electro Ball!

Pika, pika, pika, pika... Pikachu, pi!

Use Flamethrower.

Turtonator!

-Pi!
-Pikachu, run one more time.

Pika! [pants]

Turtonator.

Now, Iron Tail.

Pika! Pika!

-[Turtonator groans]
-Pika! Pi!

-Hang in there, Turtonator.
-[pants]

[thinks] Competing against
Pikachu's speed won't work.

We lost to Marowak for the same reason.

-It's impossible to win on defense.
-Huh?

-Okay. Use Thunderbolt.
-Pikachu!

-[Turtonator groans]
-Pi!

Turtonator, no!

[groans] Turtonator.

[thinks] I know there's a limit
to withstanding these att*cks.

But what am I supposed to do?

-Turto.
-Turtonator?

-Turto.
-Ah.

[Kiawe thinks] Even though Turtonator is
always calm, a fierce fire burns inside.

Hm. All right, then. Let's see it.
Your inner Wela Volcano.

Turto.

Turto...

[gasps]

-Pika?
-Now what?

[hiker sobs] Magmar!

[sobs]

[all]
Please save Magmar, Nurse Joy, please.

[Joy] Don't worry. It'll be fine.

[Kukui] So, no crown?

No crown. Kiawe's challenge
didn't work, like theirs.

That Marowak, why did it steal
the Wela Crown in the first place?

-Good question.
-I'm certain Marowak has its reasons.

But still, you and I know

the Wela Crown is one of Akala Island's
most precious treasures.

-I've got to get it back, no matter what.
-You're going to go after Marowak?

Hm. Since I'm the island kahuna,
I have to, right? I'll go.

-[Kiawe] Wait, please.
-Huh?

-Olivia. Do me a favor.
-Kiawe?

Instead of you getting back
the Wela Crown, please let me try again?

-Can you?
-Yes, I can.

-Great. I'm counting on you.
-Thank you very much.

-Wow. What a change.
-It's amazing.

-He's so much different.
-Yeah, happy. Confident, too.

-It's because they trained.
-Pikachu!

I'm sure you're going to win
after all that training we did. Right?

Right.

Maro?

There it is!

-Marowak, we want a rematch!
-Marowak.

[all grunt]

Maro. Marowak! [grunts] Marowak!

-Use Dragon Tail.
-Turto.

Turtonator. Turto. Turtonator!

Mar! Marowak!

-[grunts] Turtonator!
-Marowak!

It's like Turtonator's being toyed with.
How will it be able to land an att*ck?

Oh. Turtonator needs to figure out
how to deal with Marowak's speed.

But how? It looks hopeless.

Ha.

[grunts] Maro. Maro, maro, maro!

Flamethrower, let's go!

Turto! [grunts]

[all yell]

Huh?

-Are you okay?
-Know what?

-This battle's totally on fire.
-Look at Marowak.

-Mar! Marowak!
-Turtonator,

-Turtonator, quick, behind you.
-Tur!

All right. It's going to use Shell Trap.

Marowak!

It avoided it.

-You're right.
-Keep it up.

Turtonator!

Maro! Marowak!

[groans]

-Turtonator, here we go.
-Nator!

Turto!

Use Shell Smash.

Nator!

That's Shell Smash.
It makes Turtonator vulnerable to damage,

but it increases power and speed.

-Isn't that a little desperate?
-Yeah.

But they have to, to b*at Marowak.

Marowak!

-Wak! Marowak!
-Turto!

Turtonator!

No, Turtonator.

Turtonator's strength has vanished.

Oh.

-Can you still battle?
-Turto!

Then use Dragon Tail.

-Turtonator!
-Mar! [grunting]

Wak! Mer!

Now, Turtonator, let's do it.

With every fiber of my being.

The zenith of my mind, body and spirit.

Like the great mountain of Akala,
become a raging fire and burn.

Inferno Overdrive!

Turtonator!

[groans]

-Kiawe!
-You won!

-Amazing, so cool!
-[both laugh]

-You were great, Turtonator.
-Turto!

Maro...

I know. You wanted to wear this crown
to become stronger, didn't you?

Marowak.

[gasps] So that's why?

It was during the battle that I knew.
It's Marowak's heart.

-It's filled with the same fire in mine.
-Really? The same?

I know what you're talking about.

Your hearts connected
while you were battling.

Your hearts go ding.

Because of that connection, Marowak didn't
protest when it gave the crown back.

Marowak. Marowak!

-Wait. Are you telling me you want...
-Maro.

[chuckles]

-All right.
-Marowak.

You caught it.

-Come out.
-Wak!

Mar! Mar! Mar...

Maro! Maro! Maro!
Maro! Maro! Maro! Maro...

-Nice to meet you again.
-Turto?

-Marowak!
-Turto!

Turto!

-Marowak!
-Pika?

Uh, sounds like
it doesn't want to lose next time.

-[Ash] It sure doesn't like losing.
-Yeah.

[Marowak and Turtonator grunt and groan]

Marowak! Marowak! Marowak!
Marowak! Marowak!

What are you doing? Careful, okay?

-Marowak!
-[all laughing]

Look. The Wela Crown has been
safely returned,

-which means, let's celebrate.
-[cheering]

Pi... Pikachu!

Here.

-[meows]
-Pika!

Now, Marowak, you're next.

-Maro! Maro?
-Hm.

Marowak!

-Hm.
-[Olivia] Here.

May you receive
the gift of Wela Volcano's power.

Turtonator, from now on, we work harder,
with Marowak.

-Turto...
-Marowak! Marowak! Marowak!

Let's take a picture to mark the occasion.
All right, say cheese.

[all] Huh?

[all laugh]

[narrator] Now Kiawe has caught
a feisty Marowak,

a Pokémon with a spirit
as fiery as Wela Volcano itself,

it's sure to pick up
the already-heated pace,

as our heroes' Akala Island
journey continues.

[all] See you!

[sobbing]
