ASH Jump for Joy!

NARRATOR Headed toward Mauville City and the Hoenn League

Ash and friends decide to take a well-deserved break

at a remote Pokémon Center in the mountains.

There it is, guys!

[EXCITED]

Finally made it.

I'll bet there's an awesome view from here.

MAY 'The air is so clean'

'and the forest looks so pretty!'

Hey, we should go ask Nurse Joy

where the best spots are around here for exploring.

Maybe she can lead us to some rare Pokémon?

- Start by leading me to her! - Yeah! Good idea!

Nurse Joy, I'm Brock

but enough about me, let's talk about you!

MAY Good grief, give it a rest!

MAX Looks like Nurse Joy isn't here!

Oh, well, she can't be too far.

[CURIOUS]

What is it, Pikachu?

[ALARMED]

Huh, Pikachu!

ASH 'Hey, come back!'

[CURIOUS]

[panting]

- Pikachu? - Where are you going?

[EXERTION]

[gasping]

MAX 'Maybe someone broke in.'

Pikachu!

Uh, huh, hey, what's wrong?

Pikachu, what happened?

[snoring]

- Ash? - Uh, he's asleep?

[wind howling]

JESSIE 'This is the life.'

Peaceful moments like this make everything worthwhile.

Nothing can possibly disturb us.

- Ah, so true! - We're one with nature.

[screaming]

- Oh.. - That hurt.

But is my hair okay?

Whoa! Look at that!

- Huh? - Huh?

[EXERTION]

[EXERTION]

[EXERTION]

[EXERTION]

Uh, is that what I think it is?

Could be, but I don't know what you're thinking

and I don't know what it is!

That's a Shiftry and those fan-like hands

are giving me one of my great Boss ideas.

- Lay it on us. - Lay it on us.

MEOWTH Imagine the Boss wakes up one morning

in the middle of summer.

"Oh, it's too hot today," he complains.

That's when Shiftry appears and starts fanning him

with some cool, quality air and the Boss says..

"This is such a refreshing breeze

"that I think Meowth and his friends deserve a big reward

for bringing me this Shiftry."

JESSIE/JAMES Wow!

TEAM ROCKET And then promotions

and expense accounts. Yay!

Whatever it takes, we'll get that Shiftry!

[AFFIRMATIVE]

BROCK Wake up, Ash! Ash!

[groaning]

Hm? Where am I?

Pikachu, what's this?

[CURIOUS]

BROCK 'Did you breathe in this powder?'

[AGREEMENT]

- It's Stun Spore! - But how did it get here?

- 'Look at this!' - Hm?

"Distribution of Pokémon in and around the Pokémon Center.

- Signed, Nurse Joy." - Nurse Joy?

Then that means I'm actually here in Nurse Joy's room!

It looks like Nurse Joy was doing research

on Pokémon around this area.

- Ah-ha! - Huh?

MAX 'I think that's a security camera.'

ASH/BROCK/MAY/MAX Hm.

- Look! It's Nurse Joy. - Huh?

So she was in her room until just a while ago!

[gasping]

BROCK 'Hit stop!'

MAX 'That's a Shiftry!'

- Shiftry? - Let's see.

Shiftry, the Wicked Pokémon.

Shiftry is a mysterious creature

that lives deep within the forest.

They are said to live in the tops of trees

that are over a thousand years old.

But Shiftry couldn't have taken Nurse Joy.

[WORRIED]

Hm?

[gasping]

It's Stun Spore!

[grunting] Oh, no, you don't!

Nurse Joy, don't you fear, Brock is here!

There's something odd about this, though.

I didn't think Shiftry was able to use Stun Spore.

Yeah, well, all I know is Nurse Joy was kidnapped.

But where is she?

[EXERTION]/[EXCITED]

Pikachu, you see somethin', buddy?

Wait! That's it!

BROCK 'Shiftry supposedly live in the tops of trees'

'that are over a thousand years old!'

- There's our tree! - Great!

- So let's go save Nurse Joy! - Yeah!

I'm coming for you, Nurse Joy!

[EXERTION]

[EXERTION]

[panting]

MAY 'That tree's a lot further away than it looks!'

Nothing's too far for my Nurse Joy!

[EXERTION]

- Huh? - It's Oddish!

[ANGRY]

Watch out for it's Stun Spore!

Don't worry, I know how to take care of this.

[chuckles] Go, Beautifly!

'Use Gust to blow Stun Spore away!'

[GUST MOVE]

What happened to the Oddish?

Never mind. Let's just get moving.

ASH/MAY/MAX Right.

[panting]

[EXERTION]

It's kind of dark and creepy in this forest.

What's that?

[EXERTION]

It's Seedot!

[ATTACK]

[screaming]

I don't get why we keep on gettin' attacked like that.

[CONFUSED]

MAY 'Look, it's those Oddish again.'

ASH 'What are they doin' with the Seedot?'

I bet they're trying to help that Shiftry somehow.

Remember, Shiftry's an evolved form of Seedot.

I get it, the Stun Spore that Shiftry used on Nurse Joy

actually came from those Oddish.

[EXERTION]

[ATTACK]

ASH/BROCK/MAY/MAX 'Ah! Oh!'

Somehow we got to get through. Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!

- Wait, Ash. - Huh?

Since Seedot are weak against Fire Attacks

maybe we should use May's Torchic instead.

You got it! Torchic, come on out!

[APPEARING]/[EXCITED]

Torchic, use Ember now!

[EMBER MOVE]

[PAINED]

[SCARED]

- Yay! - Alright!

[HAPPY]

- Good job, Torchic. - Let's move while we can.

ASH/MAX/MAY Yeah.

Oh, wouldn't you know it, the Twerps want that Shiftry, too.

Just great, next thing you know, they'll be copying our uniforms.

They won't copy mine!

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

[AFFIRMATIVE]

[groaning] Huh?

[whimpering]

[EXERTION]

[panting]

[CONCERNED]

So this must be the spot where Shiftry crossed the river.

Well, if it continued in this direction

then it must be headed for that giant tree we saw before.

'Don't you think?'

Nurse Joy, Brock is on the way!

[screaming]

What now?

This time it's Nuzleaf!

[ATTACK]

[screaming]

- Run for it! - Where?

- Anywhere! - There's nowhere to hide!

[EXERTION]

[whimpering]

[EXERTION]

[panting]

[screaming]

Someone help me!

[screaming]

[ATTACK]

Ash, you should use Flying Attacks against the Nuzleaf!

Okay! Come on, Taillow!

I choose you!

[APPEARING]/[EXERTION]

Wing Attack!

[WING MOVE]

[EXERTION]

[PAINED]

[SCARED]

Way to go, Taillow! That really showed 'em, huh?

[PROUD]

It might sound kind of weird

but I think those Nuzleaf were waiting to ambush us.

- Do you really think so? - Hm.

You know, I think they're probably working

with that Shiftry and all of those Pokémon

are trying to stop us from getting to that tree.

Wonder why.

'Cause that is where they took her!

We'd better hurry and get to that tree.

- Let's go! - Yeah!

[chuckles] This couldn't be better.

The Twerps are doing all of the hard work for us

springing those traps and leading us

straight to the Shiftry!

There's an odd sense of satisfaction

that comes with profiting from other people's efforts.

I like the satisfaction that comes with stealing things

from under people's noses. Yeah!

[chuckles] I just love being bad. Don't you?

[AFFIRMATIVE]

[whimpering]

[EXERTION]

Hm. Well, what is it you want with me, Shiftry?

[EXERTION]

Huh?

[EXERTION]

Oddish, Seedot and Nuzleaf, what are you all doing here?

[EXERTION]

What's going on?

Where am I anyway?

[EXERTION]

[wind howling]

Oh, no. Oh..

[EXERTION]

Huh?

[EXERTION]

Do you want me to follow you, Seedot?

[AGREEMENT]

[EXERTION]

Oh!

[WORRIED]

What's the matter?

It's not doing well. It's very warm.

[WORRIED]

So is this why you brought me here, Shiftry

so that I could take care of this little guy?

[EXERTION]

Is that why?

[AGREEMENT]

[WORRIED]

[ANGRY]/[EXERTION]

Uh.. Huh?

[panting]

[CONCERNED]

What is it, Pikachu?

[ANGRY]

[ANGRY]

ASH/BROCK/MAY/MAX The Shiftry!

Shiftry, we know you ran off with Nurse Joy!

[EXERTION]

If it's a battle you want..

Treecko, I choose you!

[APPEARING]/[EXERTION]

Go, Treecko! Quick Attack now!

[QUICK MOVE]

[EXERTION]

TREECKO/SHIFTRY [SURPRISED]/[b*llet SEED MOVE]

[EXERTION]

- Shiftry's using b*llet Seed! - Uh-oh!

Treecko, Pound Attack!

[AGREEMENT]/[DODGING]

[POUND MOVE]

[EXERTION]

TREECKO/SHIFTRY [CONFUSED]/[ANGRY]

You guys should go and run to the tree while you can!

You go, too, Pikachu!

BROCK/MAY/MAX Okay!

[ATTACK]

- Huh? - Whoa!

[ATTACK]

[PAINED]

[EXERTION]

[ANNOYED]/[ATTACK]

TREECKO/SHIFTRY [DODGING]/[ATTACK]

[DODGING]

[PAINED]

[ATTACK]

[PAINED]

[ATTACK]

JESSIE 'Enough!'

[SURPRISED]

Prepare for trouble here in the trees.

Make it double, we steal with ease.

JESSIE 'To protect the world from devastation.'

JAMES 'To unite all peoples within our nation.'

To denounce the evils of trees and love.

To extend our reach to the leaves above.

Meowth!

[AFFIRMATIVE]

Team Rocket blasts off for an easy ride.

Surrender now or prepare to hide, hide, hide!

- Meowth! Ow! - That's right!

[AFFIRMATIVE]

- Remember us? - Team Rocket!

MEOWTH Thanks for tiring out Shiftry for us

but we can take it from here and I do mean take it!

[chuckling]

[grunting]

[ANGRY]

[panting]

[ALARMED]

- Up there? - Yeah, must be!

[panting]

[EXERTION]

- Hm. - 'Nurse Joy!'

Huh?

MAY Are you okay?

[ANGRY]

[gasping]

MAX 'Oh, no, the Seedot and the Nuzleaf'

'have her trapped!'

What are you doing here?

My name's Brock and I'm here to rescue you

for wherever there is a pretty girl in distress

I will be there!

- I'm not in distress. - But you're pretty, right?

- Whoa! - Huh?

'That Nuzleaf..'

Nurse Joy, is there something wrong with it?

That poor little thing looks like it's terribly sick.

Yes. And it needs some help, fast.

[panting]

Hm, now it makes sense.

BROCK 'Shiftry brought Nurse Joy here'

'to take care of this Nuzleaf.'

And it just wanted to make sure

we didn't do anything to stop it.

What do you mean?

We bumped into Shiftry on the way here.

There's a battle going on right now!

Oh, no! There's no need to battle with Shiftry.

Hey, can you all help me with

an emergency treatment for this Nuzleaf?

Then when we're finished, could you take me to Shiftry?

BROCK/MAY/MAX Sure.

[ANGRY]

- Ah! - It's scary.

And hairy!

And looks like my Cousin Larry!

[ATTACK]

[screaming]

Not fair!

We didn't do anything bad yet.

There's no justice.

TEAM ROCKET Team Rocket's blasting off again!

[EXERTION]

[ATTACK]

[EXERTION]

[ANGRY]

Treecko, look out!

[b*llet SEED MOVE]

[PAINED]

- Treecko! - Shiftry, stop it now!

[SURPRISED]

Treecko!

[ANGRY]

[PAINED]

Huh? Nurse Joy and Brock?

It's okay. You don't need to fight with him, Shiftry.

[EXERTION]

I promise you I'll take good care of your little friend.

- And it'll be okay! - Huh? Little friend?

One of the Nuzleaf is sick.

Shiftry just brought Nurse Joy here

so she could help to make it better.

That's really cool. Hm.

[CONCERNED]

Yeah. Shiftry, you're a good friend to Nuzleaf.

[CONCERNED]

I'll take care of everything

but I don't have some of the supplies I need with me.

[SURPRISED]/[CONCERNED]

We've done everything we can to keep Nuzleaf comfortable

but I need to get some of my medicines.

So I have to go back to the Pokémon Center and get them.

But, Nurse Joy, we're so far away from the Pokémon Center.

- Hm? Well, yes and no. - Huh?

Hey, Shiftry, do you think you could carry me there?

[CONFIDENT]

Whoa!

[screaming]

BROCK 'Look! Whoa! Hey!'

[TIRED]

ASH/MAY/MAX Hm.

[TIRED]

[CONCERNED]

Hm..

[TIRED]

[ENERGETIC]

[HAPPY]

[gasping]

Huh!

Nuzleaf is gonna be just fine!

- Alright! - Alright, yeah!

[HAPPY]

[EXCITED]

[PLEASED]

Thank you for all of your help.

Well, uh, you know, just happy to be of service.

Everything's okay now, Shiftry.

[HAPPY]

ASH 'Hey, Shiftry, where are you going?'

MAY Shiftry?

ASH Bye, Nurse Joy! See you later!

Goodbye! You all take care!

[HAPPY]

You take care, too, Nurse Joy!

- Goodbye now! - Goodbye now!

I'm sure Nurse Joy won't soon be forgetting her hero, Brock!

Yeah, but hopefully she will forget your girly scream.

[AGREEMENT]

Whoa!

[screaming] Whoa!
