22x19 - Show Me the Metal!

[bunniefuu]

[narrator]

Do you remember those strange creatures

that were on the ship that carried

our heroes from Poni Island?

Yes, those strange creatures.

I wonder what they're up to right now.

[Ash] Show me the Metal!

[gibbering]

This island makes my happy place happier.

And that's without a penny to my name.

[babbles]

Case in point. This bolt.

You'd never know it was junkyard-grade.

[shrieking]

What did I do to deserve that?

Stop your whining

and help pick up these things.

Whining's more fun.

[babbles]

[gibbering]

[gibbering]

[warbles]

Hm?

[gibbering]

[grunting]

[groaning]

[warbles]

[groaning]

[Jessie] Ta-da.

[giggles]

There you are. Meowth may have wanted

to keep this pudding a secret,

but his hiding skills leave a lot

to be desired.

It's like "Take me, I'm yours!"

[Meowth] We're back in the box!

[gasps]

Huh?

What have you been pawing at?

[Jessie] Who, me?

[whistling]

Right, Whistler's Faker...

[James] Meowth! Save it for later!

I need help now!

Huh?

[grunts, then exhales]

We bought all that?

-[Meowth] It's gone!

-Huh?

[Meowth] My gourmet Paniola Town pudding

á la mode special is not here! Huh?

[whistling]

-[Meowth] Jessie!

-I didn't eat anything.

You probably hid it so you can eat it

by yourself!

-[gasps]

-Hid? How could you?

[babbles]

[groans] [gasps]

All right. You give that back.

[Jessie] Relax.

Give me half, and we're good.

[James] I deserve half, too.

[chattering]

Today we'll be studying electronics.

I want you to try to build the Pokémon

training machine that Sophocles designed.

[chirping]

[gasping]

All the tools you'll need to build it

are right here.

[Ash] Sounds like fun.

[Rotom] Very professional.

I'm fired up.

I've never done a project

like this before.

I wonder if I can even do it.

Never fear. I'll be right here.

Look at Sophocles. He's even sparkly.

All right, then.

The most important thing here

is to analyze the example

and understand how it works.

[all] Right!

[chirping]

[shrieking]

[gasping]

[chattering]

[gibbering]

-Hey, Ash, hand me the box-end wrench.

-Sure.

Let's see.

Now which one is a box-end wrench?

-This one?

-That's a line wrench.

-This one?

-Ash, that's an adjustable wrench.

-Uh...

-You mean this?

First prize!

-That was amazing.

-[chuckles]

Now, Lillie, please get a hex nut.

Right.

Is this it?

Yeah, but I don't think I remember

using any hex nut that large.

Are you sure?

Something's dangling from the bottom.

What is that? It's kind of squishy.

-Let me try.

-Me too.

[giggling]

[Ash] Feels kind of nice.

[Mallow]

There's a cord on it.

[Kiawe] What's this ball all about?

[shrieking]

[screaming]

-Flash Cannon?

-It can't be a Pokémon.

Let me check my data.

[clicking]

[beeping]

No data! No data!

I've never seen one before.

Oh, do you think we might actually be

the very first ones

to witness a new kind of Pokémon?

Then this is an important discovery.

-[Ash] Look at that.

-Huh?

-There are tons of them in there!

-[gasping]

[whimpering]

Check it out. Look at all of them.

-Eevee!

-Huh?

What are you doing?

-Look out!

-Pikachu, Electroweb!

Eevee?

[grunts]

[sighs] Wow, thanks, Ash and Pikachu.

Saving Pokémon behavioral data.

They attack when overstimulated.

We'd better take care around them.

When it comes to wild Pokémon,

I've got extensive experience

because of working on my ranch.

Oh, such a cutie pie.

See? You're all right.

Good little Pokémon.

[grumbles]

Wow, that hurt!

[groans]

-They use Electric-type moves, too?

-What a discovery!

Sure. Easy for you to say.

[gasps]

The metal from the screwdrivers

is missing.

-The nuts and bolts I bought are gone too.

-[gasping]

Do you think those little ones

could've eaten them all?

Does that mean that they eat metal?

-Maybe they're Steel type.

-You think?

So, where did you guys come from?

-[babbles]

-Here. Wanna eat it?

[gibbering]

[chuckles] They do.

I wonder if those red cords

they're waggling around

could be some kind of a tail.

Hey, maybe they're happy.

Pika. Pika.

[Kiawe] And maybe that black ball

in the center is their eye.

Where? Where?

Those black ba*ls float. Why is that?

Maybe it's magnetism.

Hold on. I've got an electromagnet.

Ready?

On.

-[shrieking]

-[gasping]

So, they must be Steel type.

[warbling]

It sounds like it's a lot of fun.

[clicking]

What's Marowak going to do?

I know! It's Marowak's welcome dance!

Yeah.

[chanting]

[grunting]

[shrieking]

[gasping]

[all] Who's that Pokémon?

[all] It's Clefable!

[Clefable] Clefable!

Bon appétit!

[Meowth]

It feels like I haven't eaten at all.

That's exactly why you

should have split it with me fifty-fifty!

Having it myself

would've made it twice as yummy!

Now, now, happy place.

[scoffs]

You did buy those parts, didn't you?

[James] Indeed. Great parts

at a pauper's price. See?

It looks so...

[screaming] Empty!

But how could parts simply disappear?

That can't be possible.

You must have accidentally

dumped them out.

Please. They were in this box.

[gasping]

[groans]

-What a mess!

-Who could've done that?

-[shrieking]

-Hm?

-Pokémon?

-Guilty Pokémon!

[grunting]

[Meowth] Come on.

[James grunting] Get out here!

[chirps]

-[chirps]

-[chirping]

[chattering]

[gibbering]

-[clanking]

-Hm?

[James screams]

What's up?

Something's gotten into

my precious bottle caps!

[panting]

Not my rare melon-juice

pulled-from-the-shelf

after-three-days-on-sale cap!

They can't do this to me, I tell you!

I'll take them to court!

Got it!

[laughing]

[gasps]

[screams]

My melon juice cap!

It's half the cap it used to be!

I wouldn't be surprised

if those sneaks did all this.

You may be right,

but where are those crooks now?

-Hm?

-[James wailing]

[gasping]

[grunts] I've got you, you...

[grunting]

Huh?

[snoring]

[Meowth]

What a mess. It's parts pudding surprise.

[James] That means...

What? Hey, look at this.

Did you buy this?

Nope. No way.

Look, are you the ones who melted

my bottle caps and our equipment?

Spill it, now!

[shrieks]

[yelling]

[shrieking]

[screaming]

[Meowth] Hold it right where you are!

Where could they all have gone?

If they're a new kind of Pokémon,

I want to be sure to enter them

into my database.

Right. Everybody split up

and search for them.

Right.

[chirping]

[quivering]

[cooing]

[chirping]

Hm?

Hm?

[shrieks]

[cawing]

[shrieks]

[cooing]

[cooing]

[cooing]

[Jessie] Slow down!

[Meowth] Stop right there!

-You heard them!

-[shrieking]

For my bottle caps!

Prepare to feel my wrath!

[shrieking]

And for messing with my stuff!

[chattering]

Translation, please.

"Gotta eat. Let's go." Stuff like that.

There's not much more to it.

I wonder. If we marketed them

as some new type of Pokémon,

we'd strike it rich, right?

Buckets of bucks.

[babbles]

Save it for later.

Right now, it's payback time! Mareanie!

[wails]

[thuds]

[muffled scream]

Mimikyu, use Shadow Ball.

Oh, that's a baby Shadow Ball.

Unless it's battling Pikachu,

it doesn't get worked up.

Mareanie, use Spike Cannon!

[grunts]

I'm gonna net all of you bunch of nuts!

[grunts]

[yelling]

[growling]

-Here we go again!

-[yelling]

[coughing]

-[gasping]

-[chirps]

[Team Rocket] It's Bewear!

[roars]

[shrieking]

Good riddance!

-Don't let a tree hit you on your way out!

-[babbles]

Hold on! Without them, we won't be able

to claim our stash of cash!

After them! Huh?

-[chirping]

-[Meowth] Ow, ow, ow...

[Team Rocket] We're off with a new blast.

[Wobbuffet babbles]

-Pika? Pika. Pika.

-Huh?

-Pika!

-[gasps]

-Whoa, you mean they're up there?

-[gasping]

[Kiawe] It's true.

[grunts] [gasps]

[Rotom] Resuming data collection.

[gasping]

-Why would they be up here?

-Pika. Pika.

[shrieking]

You're not allowed to eat that bell!

[rings]

[all] My ears!

[screaming]

[wailing]

So, what are they making that sound for?

Maybe they're resonating.

This is worth writing down.

Amazing. Wouldn't that make them dizzy?

There's gotta be a reason for that.

[wailing]

[chattering]

[shrieking]

[gasping]

[chattering]

There they go.

True, but you still gathered a lot

of data, didn't you?

I'm data-filled.

[bells tolling]

Rowlet, there you are.

We're going now.

[coos]

-[Ash] I'm home!

-Pika! Pika!

[Ash] Professor Oak!

Huh?

Oh, it's you, Ash.

What's gotten you so worked up?

I think we might have found something

really amazing.

Rotom's sending the data now.

[beeping]

[beeps]

Hm?

Oh, what's this?

See? It's a new type of Pokémon, right?

"It eats metal for food,

and it sticks to magnets.

It wags its cable-like tail

when it appears to be happy.

It freezes up when surprised.

At times, it spins its head section

and emits a sound.

And it can launch Electric-type attacks

using its head section as well."

There's a possibility it's a Steel type.

Hm. I'm amazed you collected so much data.

[Rotom] I'm honored.

This could be one of the greatest

discoveries of our time.

I'll start analyzing your data right away.

-All right!

-[cheering]

[Kukui] Thank you so much.

[coos]

[narrator] What's this?

One of those mysterious Pokémon

came along, too.

And here, too?

[gibbering]

[mutters]

[gasps]

[gibbering]

[narrator] Look how many there are now.

What will they do?

As the journey continues.
