[bunniefuu]

(narrator) Hopes for Ash's second Gym Badge victory

are running high

as our Heroes continue on the road

to Nacrene City.

- Huh? - Pika?

[clamoring]

Whoa! Check it out.

Everyone, slow down!

Help us stop those kids, please?

- Huh! - Enemy sighted straight ahead.

Prepare to attack.

(in unison) Yes, sir!

What do they mean, attack?

Mud bombs ready. And fire!

(in unison) Yes, sir!

[grunting]

Whoa-whoa-whoa!

Attack successful.

- Yes! - Alright!

[clamoring]

Oh, no! They've got my hat.

(Ash) "Here Comes The Trubbish Squad!"

[clamoring]

[grunts] What's with those kids anyway?

Axew!

Not exactly innocent pranksters.

- Yeah, and I'm mad! - Pika.

(Daniela) 'I'm so sorry.'

- Huh? - Pika?

Those children are from my kindergarten class.

- Forgive them, please. - Huh!

We're very sorry.

Sandile! San!

San! Sandile!

(Iris) 'Wow! Look at all these Pokemon Eggs.'

Wow!

The nourishing spirit

I find here warms my heart.

[laughs]

You're standing in my Day Care.

The name's Karena.

This is my granddaughter, Daniela.

Hello there.

And this is the kindergarten classroom where I teach.

Hi. My name is Ash.

And this is my partner, Pikachu.

- Pikachu. - My name is Iris.

I'm Cilan, a Pokemon Connoisseur.

I'm really sorry about what happened today.

You see, the children in my class found a Trubbish

just yesterday and decided to bring it here.

Trubbish? So, that's the name of that Pokemon they had?

Pika.

Yes, and they found it

at a junkyard located on the edge of town.

Trubbish.

(Pokedex) Trubbish, the Trash Bag Pokemon.

Trubbish prefer to live in

dirty places, like garbage dumps.

It is said they were born when a chemical reaction occurred

between an abandoned trash bags and industrial waste.

It must like garbage.

Yeah, but my hat's not garbage, you know.

- Pikachu. - Hm.

It's a Pokemon with quite a unique recipe.

Unique? Yes.

When I first saw Trubbish

I was anything but excited.

Tru-Trubbish.

Oh, my. You brought that here?

- Yup. - It was crying.

Trubbish. Trubbish.

Teacher, can we keep Trubbish here with us?

Yeah, can we? Please?

Hm. I'm afraid not.

But why not?

You see, Trubbish

is a Pokemon that loves garbage

and we can't have garbage

littering up our classroom now, can we?

But we'll clean it up. I promise we will.

Can we keep it, pretty please?

I said no.

Take it back to the junkyard where you found it.

No. We wanna keep Trubbish.

- We wanna keep it. - We wanna keep it.

- We wanna keep it. - We wanna keep it.



I already told you. No.

Trubbish.

Huh! Ah!

What stinks? Was that Trubbish?

It smells horrible.

Trubbish does not stink.

(all in unison) Trubbish does not stink.

I guess I'll just have to take Trubbish back myself

[grunts]

(all) Huh!

(all) Ow!

Hm.

Please understand.

I can't keep you in my kindergarten class

Trubbish.

Trubbish.

Daniela brought Trubbish back to the junkyard

where the kids first found it

but we woke up today to find something you wouldn't believe.

- Hm? - Hm?

What are you talking about?

- Pika. - What's that?

The children and Trubbish made this awful thing

out of all the junk they found.

It has the recipe of a secret base.

Whoa, a secret base?

Man, those kids are good.

Ash, you're not supposed to be impressed. Sheesh.

You know, you're a littler kid than they are.

Gee, thanks.

(Daniela) 'That pile of junk'

'could collapse at any moment.'

(Cilan) 'I agree.'

I'd better do something quick.

Would you mind helping Daniela clean this up?

No problem. Of course, we'll help.

- Pika, Pika! - I'm in.

- Me too. - That's so nice.

Thank you all.

(all) Huh!

Look, this is the Trubbish Squad's super-secret base.

And grown ups aren't allowed to come inside.

(all in unison) Right, no grown ups allowed.

Trubbish Squad super-secret base?

They're just playing games.

Just like kids do.

Oh.

Hm.

Class, come on.

You need to stop these silly games right now.

I know.

- Let me talk to them. - Huh?

I played games like this all the time.

They were lots of fun.

So, I kind of understand what they're talking about.

Ash, that's a great idea.

Mm.

Well, then, if you don't mind.

You just leave it to me.

- Come on, Pikachu. - Pikachu!

Pi. Pi. Pi.

[Ash grunting]

Ah!

Intruder alert.

Alright then, Trubbish, go! Attack!

Trubbish!

Tru-bbish!

- Oh! - Pika!

Great job, Trubbish. Everybody, fire!

(in unison) Yes, sir!

[grunting]

Stop! I wanna talk to you guys!

Launch the Fan as*ault.

Right. Yes, sir!

[screams]

Man, that hurts.

- 'Don't move.' - Huh?

Uh..

What's going on?

Ash, what're you doing?

Well, uh..

They've kind of got us both trapped.

- Pika! - 'Trapped?'

'Will the two of you pull yourselves together?'

Sure. Just give me a little bit more time.

The prisoners will stay silent.

[grunting]

Okay, okay!

Pika.

(Ash) 'Wow!'

I'm impressed. Cool.

Pika.

You guys made this all by yourselves?

Uh-huh. With a whole lot of help from Trubbish.

Trubbish!

That's awesome.

- Pika. - Trubbish.

Hey. You're not allowed to be friendly with the enemy.

I'm sorry, Avie.

Trubbish.



Wow, so your name is really Avie?

The name is Avery to you.

Okay. I'm Ash.

- And this is Pikachu. - Pika, Pikachu!

I've never seen a real Pikachu before.

- Pikachu is cute. - Mm-hm.

Mind if I pet it?

Nah. No prob.

Pika!

Pika?

[indistinct chatter]

Pikachu.

[indistinct chatter]

The thing is, we don't wanna be enemies.

We really wanna talk, that's all.

- You mean it? - You bet.

- Oh! - Pikachu!

Would it be okay if I pet Pikachu too?

- Mm-hm. - Hey, Pikachu, over here.

Hey, guys, take it easy.

If you don't, you just might get zapped.

(all) Huh! Zapped?

Pika!

[all groans]

Pikachu!

[clamoring]

Here's the deal.

Pikachu is an Electric-type Pokemon

and knows how to use an awesome move

called Thunderbolt.

- Right, Pikachu? - Pikachu!

[Ash screaming]

Pretty intense, right?

(all) Wow!

See, Pikachu's cute and strong.

Pikachu!

Trubbish.

Pika.

Trubbish.

Uh, okay, you're cute too, I guess.

Of course, you're cute.

You bet your Trubbish's cute.

(all) Trubbish sure is. Yeah.

Trubbish.

It's obvious to me

you guys like that Trubbish a lot, don't you?

(all in unison) Yeah. We love Trubbish. Yay.

Got it.

Here, Ash, I want you to have your hat back.

- Sorry about that. - Oh! Hey, thanks a lot.

[laughter]

(group) Who's that Pokemon?

(group) It's Trubbish.

(Trubbish) Trubbish!

(woman) 'Finally, yesterday evening'

'a large amount of trash mysteriously disappeared'

'from the local junkyard.'

'A Trubbish living in that same junk yard'

'has also disappeared, which is fueling speculation'

'that thievery may in fact be involved in the incident.'

'Your local weather forecast coming up next.'

What time is the express train leaving?

Nine o'clock.

(James) What did you wish to discuss?

Is the mission on schedule and according to plan?

Everything is perfect.

Your faith in us will be rewarded.

Headquarters asked me to give this to you.

(James) And what's this?

(man) 'A replica of a certain rock'

'the details of which shall be revealed very soon.'

It's in good hands.

(man) 'I also think you might like to know'

'that the Boss has been speaking very highly of you'

'as of late.'

Right.

Of course.

(man) Indeed.

Come on, you guys. I say stop this.

Go on and make things right with your teacher.

- What do you all say? - Pika.

I can go with you when you say you're sorry.

We didn't do anything wrong.

Avery is right.

It's our teacher's fault.

(in unison) Yeah, it's Daniela's fault.

Is that because she told you to take Trubbish

back to the junkyard?

Mm-hm. Yeah, and when we said no

she took Trubbish back and dumped it.

Trubbish isn't a bad Pokemon at all.

Yeah, but Trubbish didn't do anything wrong.

Okay, but it can get pretty stinky.

- Pika. - Yeah, it is stinky.

It does not stink.

He's right. It doesn't stink at all.

Trubbish.

- Oh! - Pika!

Pika.

No, Trubbish doesn't stink.



(in unison) Trubbish doesn't stink one bit.

(Ash) 'Trubbish stinks!'

(all) Huh?

That sounded just like Ash yelling.

[all groaning]

Man, is that potent.

Pika.

- 'No, it's not.' - Huh?

Trubbish.

Trubbish, everything is just fine.

But Avery..

Trubbish, isn't Avery a great buddy?

Trubbish.

- Huh. - Huh!

What's that?

Sandile. San-San!

Intruder alert!

Everyone, prepare to attack!

- Let's go! - Let's go!

A Sandile with Sunglasses?

(Ash) I remember that Sandile.

San!

Sandile!

'San-dile!'

Look out! It's Stone Edge!

Everyone, move it!

[screaming]

Huh!

- San! - Pika.

Time for a mud b*mb counterattack.

[all grunting]

San! San-dile!

[all groaning]

Trubbish!

That's Toxic Spikes.

Sandile!

Now, Pikachu, use Iron Tail on Sandile, let's go!

Pika-chu!

- Pika! - Sandile!

Pika!

Trubbish!

Look, Trubbish used Sludge.

Sandile!

We did it!

[all cheering]

We won!

We really did. Didn't we, Ash?

- Yup. Sure did. - Pikachu!

Yeah. Looks like the Trubbish Squad has done it again.

[all cheering]

You know, this whole thing is turning into a lot of fun.

Pikachu.

[laughter]

It sounds like Ash has started playing

with all the children too.

What's he doing that for?

So much for changing their minds.

And that means

I'll take care of it after all.

Mm-hm. Right, dear.

Children

we need to talk this over together.

And, Ash, what do you mean by joining up with them?

Well, you see, one thing led to another.

- Pikachu. - Now, look..

Just how long do you intend to stay in all this junk?

We're gonna stay here until you tell us

we can keep Trubbish.

I'm very sorry but that's impossible.

Please try to understand.

I will not!

(all) And we won't either.

Come on, Daniela, at least give them a chance

to tell you what they wanna tell you.

Now, Ash, please. Will you stay out of this?

Oh, man.

Remember, this is my kindergarten class.

But it's their kindergarten class too.

It's my job to protect the children at all costs.

And that means, I've got no choice

but to force Trubbish to leave.

Deerling, come help me.

Deerling!

[all groans]

Then I guess I'll just have to take you on.

- Huh! - Good grief.

Now, Pikachu, let's do this!

Pika!

Huh! What are you doing?

I want everyone to know

I'm part of the Trubbish Squad too.

Let's hear it for Ash!

(all) Yay!

If that's what you want.

Alright, Deerling, Tackle, let's go!

Deerling!

Pika!

Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!

Pika-chu!

Dodge that!



Now use Tackle one more time.

Dodge it, Pikachu, quick!

Pikachu.

[grunting]

Oh! Deerling, don't move, no matter what.

'Otherwise that mountain of junk is gonna collapse.'

Daniela, Ash, forget this battle at once.

Ugh! Alright, everyone get away and fast.

- Ash! - Take care of the kids.

Right. This is dangerous.

We have to get out of here.

No, I'm gonna stay right here with Trubbish and that's that.

Now please, Avery, you've got to listen to me.

It's not safe. Huh!

- No! - Look out!

[grunting]

Huh?

Please, Avery, do it for me?

Daniela.

(Ash) Hurry. Get out of here.

It's gonna collapse.

Get up in the tree house.

Now, hold on tight, okay?

Hurry, quick.

Trubbish. Trubbish.

[grunting] Can't keep this up.

Trubbish.

Huh!

Trubbish!

Thanks, Trubbish.

Wow, you just saved all of us.

- Deerling! - Pika. Pika.

That Trubbish is good.

Trubbish.

Trubbish.

We're all really, really sorry.

It's all our fault.

(all in unison) Yeah, we're really sorry.

It's alright. Really.

But, Daniela..

Avery, I'm sorry too.

I wasn't a good listener.

You're all okay. Thank goodness.

(all in unison) Daniela.

Mm..

So, see now? They love Trubbish.

Won't you please think about it again?

Let Trubbish stay.

Who would take better care of Trubbish than your class?

Well, what's it gonna be?

[all whimpers]

Trubbish, tell me.

Would you like to be part of our class?

Trubbish?

Trubbish!

[cheering]

[indistinct chatter]

A Trubbish will stop releasing its smelly breath

the more friendly it becomes with people.

Huh?

Of course, it all depends

on how well you raise it.

You knew this fact about Trubbish all along?

Well, I do run a Day Care, after all.

Why in the world didn't you tell us that

in the first place?

You have to find your own way

whether you're raising kids or Pokemon

it's all the same.

[laughter]

Oh, dear, Grandma?

[cooing]

Keep it up, you guys, just a little bit more.

Ash, why do we have to do all of the cleaning?

You know, I'd much rather be cooking.

(Ash) 'Come on, it's for the kids and Trubbish.'

So I say we get everything all cleaned up by morning.

Trubbish!

I can't thank you enough for what you've done.

Here, Ash.

It's a little thank you gift from me.

- Uh! - It's a Pokemon Egg.

But you'll just have to wait until it hatches

to find out what it is.

Uh..

[chuckles]

This is great. Thank you.

All I ask is that you raise it well, okay?

You bet I will.

- 'Hey, Ash.' - Mm?

Come back and play sometime.

Yeah, don't forget you're a part of the Trubbish Squad.

Trubbish!

Someday, we'll all have a Battle too.

Pika-Pika!

[cheering]

(narrator) As so, as our Heroes bid their new friends goodbye

the thought of all those future Battles

has everyone excited.

Add in the mystery of Ash's new Pokemon Egg



plus his upcoming Gym Battle

and it all promises even more excitement

as the journey continues.
