Wow, look. Driftveil City.
We're here.
NARRATOR With Ash's Unova League dream
more vivid than ever
our heroes arrived in Driftveil City
home of the Driftveil City Gym.
My fifth Badge is waiting for me to win.
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
CILAN There it is. The Driftveil Gym.
Yes. Let's go.
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
[gasps]
- Are you alright? - Yeah.
[all gasp]
Hello, who are you people?
I'm Ash from Pallet Town
and I wanna challenge the Driftveil Gym.
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
My name's Iris. Hi, there.
Hi. I'm Cilan.
I see. It seems I've got a whole group here to challenge me.
So you're the gym leader. And your name's, uh..
Clay. But I'm in a big hurry right now
so I've got no time to battle you.
- Maybe later. - Huh? Hold on.
Wait a minute. Why can't you battle us now?
Because we're searching for a new vein.
But what do you mean, new vein?
A vein in the mine I own just outside of town.
Do you have any idea what I'm even talking about?
This is a complete waste of time.
Alright, I'll just wait till you're done.
I'll be over at the Pokémon Center
so get in touch with me there.
PIKACHU [CALLING]
Ah! And we came so far.
PIKACHU [SAD]
Well, I'd say that gym leader has a problem.
Don't let it bother you.
I'm sure Clay has a lot on his plate to deal with.
So for now, I would suggest
doing something completely different
like going over to the famous Driftveil Market.
A market, huh?
RIDER 'If you're going to the market'
I can show you around.

ASH "The Mighty Accelguard
To The Rescue."
- Who are you? - The name's Charles.
Pleased to meet you. Motorcycle riding is my life.
Love to ride.
And this is my partner, Accelgor.
[EXCITED]
Accelgor?
POKEDEX Accelgor,
the Shell-out Pokémon
and the evolved form of Shelmet.
Accelgor is much more agile once it evolves
and loses its shell allowing it to move
like a ninja when battling.
What do you know? A Pikachu.
Now that's a Pokémon that's full-throttle.
- So wanna come? - That'd be great. Thanks.
PIKACHU [EXCITED]
CHARLES 'This is the Driftveil Market.'
'Customers can buy all sorts of great foods and rare items'
'from everywhere in Unova.'
'Hundreds of customers come here to shop every day.'
'It's really busy, that's for sure.'
PIKACHU [EXCITED]
Wow. That's the yummiest-looking fruit I've ever seen.
AXEW [EXCITED]
You came here with my friend Charles, didn't you?
Here you go. On the house.
- Yeah, you mean it? - Of course. Please, enjoy it.
Thanks a lot. This is for you.
AXEW [EXCITED]
What a nice thing to do, my friend.
My greatest pleasure.
Hey, Charles, buddy. Look what I just got.
Some nice, fresh Moomoo Milk.
I'll treat you all to some later.
Hey, thanks. That sounds great.
Hi, Charles. We're getting a brand-new shipment
of Casteliacones soon.
I'll make sure to put some aside for you and all your friends.
Thanks. We'll be around later.
A gourmet market filled with gourmet people.
This is as good as it gets.
Sure is. All of Driftveil City is like this.
I was born in this town.
I love it so much.
And I get to call this place my home.
It's awesome.
- 'Thief.' - Huh?
Stop!
Somebody, please catch that crook.
Pikachu, let's go.
PIKACHU [DETERMINED]
Accelgor.
Hmm. Let's go.
'Hold it, Ducklett.'
DUCKLETT [DETERMINED]
[screams]
Ash, are you okay?
That Ducklett just used Scald.
DUCKLETT [AMUSED]
Yeah, good job, Ducklett.
DUCKLETT [AMUSED]
Hold it.
Whoa! Who's that?
'The skies call, the people call'
'the Pokémon call.'
They call on me to take you down.
I'm known as the hero of Driftveil City.
The Mighty Accelguard.
ASH/CILAN/IRIS The Mighty Accelguard.
We won't let you escape.
Accelgor kick.
[ACCELGOR KICK MOVE] [gasps]
[gasps]
Stupid fool. Have a nice day.
Accelgor. Stop them.
[DETERMINED]
DUCKLETT [SHOCKED] Wow, Accelgor sure can move.
[AGREEMENT]
That's Accelgor's agility at work.
What's going on here?
[DETERMINED]
How cool is Accelgor?
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT] It's time.
Let's move. Full throttle.
Of all the..
I'm out of gas.
Now eat my dust, you chumps.
Hold it!
What now? DUCKLETT [SHOCKED]
TIMBURR [DETERMINED]
Enough. Give yourself up.
Timburr.
'You really helped me catch this thug.'
I'll be going. Thanks.
If you ask me, I think The Mighty Accelguard
deserves the thanks.
- It's Charles. - Hey. What do you think, Linda?
Think again. The Mighty Accelguard didn't
exactly finish the job.
Excuse me?
He's not exactly a model of finesse
or coordination, you know.
Even calling him a famous local hero is a stretch.
Really? You don't like him?
Wait, that Accelgor was so awesome.
That Agility and Double Team, they were so cool.
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
Weren't they the best?
I thought Accelgor was good
but The Mighty Accelguard was just awesome.
Well, well, you're a big fan of his.
- Wonder why. - Why?
How is it that whenever The Mighty Accelguard appears
you're nowhere to be found?
So how could you have ever seen him in action?
[gasps] Wh-what a c-coincidence.
- I get it. - That clears it up for me.
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
Hey, that sure doesn't clear it up for me.
LINDA Well, I've got work to do.
Come on, Timburr. Let's go.'
TIMBURR [AGREEMENT]
- Later. - Hey, wait, Linda.
Gee whiz. She sure likes to make fun of me, doesn't she?
But it all seems to have quite a friendly flavor to it.
You two must be friends.
You could say we were friends. Friends from childhood.
Which obviously gives her the right to use
that smarty-pants mouth of hers like a secret weapon.
A Vanillite?
Charles, is something wrong?
PIKACHU [CURIOUS] Nah. It's nothing, really.
- There's that truck again. - There's that truck again.
- Vanillite. - Vanillite.
Everything's going as it should be.
Dr. Ferrara, sir, we've completely secured
all of the frozen goods from Area F.
We will bring them into the storage warehouse immediately.
Hmm, our plan to gain control
of all Unova frozen goods is working well.
Soon everyone in the Unova region
will bow down before the Majesty of Team Vanillite.
Vanillite.
CILAN Charles, thank you.
It was so nice of you to show us around
with such a passion and love for this great city you call home.
Those Casteliacones were so yummy. Don't you think?
PIKACHU/AXEW [AGREEMENT]
I'd sure like to run into that Accelgor again.
Well, well, what do you know?
You're a fan of The Mighty Accelguard.
Alright, you can have this.
What kind of badge is that?
Why, this is a Mighty Accelguard Youth Group badge.
Join now and get a M-A-Y-G matching scarf too.
Uh, well, I think I'll join up another time.
Of course. You're an Accelgor too.
Is the other Accelgor your friend?
[DISAGREEMENT]
Too bad.
If you go to the harbor side warehouse district tonight
you might find it.
Warehouse district?
Right. If you're lucky, that is.
So I'm off.
See ya.
AXEW/PIKACHU [FAREWELL]
Soon as the sun goes down
it's off to the warehouse district. Okay?
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
Here it is. The Tornadus Monument.
Yes.
'And that is the Lightning Wedge.'
Now let's get on with our plan.
[chuckles]
GROUP Who's That Pokémon?
GROUP It's Accelgor.
[EXCITED]
Just as I thought.
'Every time that truck comes into town'
'the cold storage warehouses are broken into.'
'So Vanillite Transport..'
Right in the heart of the warehouse district.
Well, since the Mighty Accelguard is on the dense side
I'd better go check it out.
[humming]
Uh, ha ha ha.
Ash, will you hold on for one minute?
If you wanna see Accelgor
why don't you just go back and see Charles?
Charles? Nah.
See, the Accelgor I wanna check out
is the one we saw who battles alongside The Mighty Accelguard.
That Accelgor rules. Yeah.
Come on, Ash?
Charles.
So we meet again.
LINDA Look at the Castelia City goods.
All stolen last week.
And these boxes are from Nacrene City.
No doubt about it.
FERRARA 'Young lady, what do you think
you're doing here' 'at this hour?'
So you're behind this.
You've been stealing frozen goods from all over Unova.
Correct. The brilliant handiwork of Team Vanillite.
Now, Timburr, let's go.
[DETERMINED]
Alright, Timburr, I think it's time
we bring these thieves to Officer Jenny.
No punk's going to intimidate me, get her.
- Vanillite. - Vanillite.
Focus Punch, go.
[FOCUS PUNCH MOVE] Vanillite, use Blizzard now.
[BLIZZARD MOVE]
[PAINED]
Oh, no, Timburr.
[groans]
Quite a Blizzard from our Vanillites.
[laughs]
'Tie them up.'
Help me, Charles.
Huh.
- Hey, Charles, something wrong? - Uh, no.
So how come you two came down here tonight?
Oh, just something I wanted to see.
ACCELGUARD [CURIOUS]
Since Linda's office is nearby
maybe we should drop in on her.
Strange. It's a little early for Linda
to have gone for the day already.
- Is it okay to just walk in? - Huh.
PIKACHU [CURIOUS]
Of course. I always come in here to use her computer.
Look at this. She's been watching that truck too.
- Oh, no. Could that mean-- - Is something wrong?
It's possible a large-scale crime
is being committed in our city.
[all gasp]
Which means, if my intuition is correct
Linda's in danger.
Do you really think you're gonna get away with this?
Release us at once.
[AGREEMENT] Ooh, a tough girl.
Soon, the entire warehouse district will be ours.
- What did you say? - Our plan is going well.
As soon as I press this remote
I will control every security system
in the entire warehouse district.
What will you get by accomplishing that?
It should be obvious.
Team Vanillite will make this warehouse district
our headquarters.
We will confiscate all the frozen goods
in the Unova region where they will be held right here.
Then we will give them to every wild Pokémon
we can find, winning their loyalty.
Just one taste of these delicious frozen goods
and they will happily do whatever we command.
Their power will allow us to take over all of Unova.
[laughs]
- 'Stop.' - Huh?
Who are you?
ACCELGUARD [DETERMINED]
You alright, Linda?
Charles. Yes.
We heard what you wanna do.
It sounds like a silly scheme tailor-made for a little kid.
Who do you brats think you are? Get them.
- Vanillite. - Vanillite.
Vanillite, use Ice Beam.
[ICE BEAM MOVE]
No. It's an Ice-type.
Okay, Tepig. Flamethrower.
[FLAMETHROWER MOVE]
Watch out!
Thanks, Tepig.
Why, of all the impudent.
The whole warehouse district is ours.
Okay, Pikachu, use Thunderbolt and stop them now.
[AGREEMENT] Huh?
Hey, Oshawott.
[EXCITED]
How dare you?
Great, Oshawott.
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT] OSHAWOTT [EXCITED]
Retreat for now.
- Vanillite. - Vanillite.
Don't worry, you two, I'm here.
Drat. They got away.
Come on, Charles. This is your big chance.
The Mighty Accelguard.
Huh? Linda.
Well, what are you standing here for?
Well, well, I guess you found me out.
There's a big duh.
Tasting the truth for the first time is always bracing.
Hm, what are you talking about?
Ash, the Accelgor you wanna see and Charles' Accelgor
are the same Pokémon.
It is? Then that means Charles is, uh..
You are such a seriously little kid.
Right. I'm Driftveil City's protector and ally.
Team Vanillite is through. Shall I show you?
Mighty, h*! Accelguard, go!
Let's move. Full throttle.
How cool is that?
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
- Let's all go too. - Right.
Why did we have to be interrupted by those fools
'when we were so close?'
Hmm? What's going on?
As long as there is evil in this world
as long as there are criminals in this world
one man will walk the path of justice.
Fool. Who are you?
The Mighty Accelguard.
[AGREEMENT]
JENNY 'Roger. I'm on my way.'
- Thanks, Jenny. - Look. Up there.
[all gasp]
Charles.
I mean, uh, Mighty Accelguard.
Oh, it's Charles. You young whippersnapper.
You're not the only one who can transform himself.
What?
Let me show you my true identity unveiled.
I'm Cryogonal Man.
Cryogonal Man?
And now for my Pokémon.
I wonder if that Pokémon's a Cryogonal.
Another Ice-type? Not again.
Hm?
- Vanillish. - Huh? Vanillish?
Hmm.
POKEDEX Vanillish, the Icy Snow Pokémon
and the evolved form of Vanillite.
Vanillish migrated southward long ago during an Ice Age
'and now lives on snow-covered mountains.'
Alright, Timburr, go and help Mighty Accelguard.
[determined]
Pikachu, let's help them out too.
[DETERMINED] You can't stop us.
Vanillite, let's go.
[DETERMINED]
Vanillish, use Icy Wind.
[ICY WIND MOVE]
Accelgor, use Double Team, then Agility.
[DOUBLE TEAM MOVE]
[AGILITY MOVE]
Vanillish, Icicle Spear.
[ICICLE SPEAR MOVE]
Accelgor, dodge it.
[groans]
Excellent.
[DETERMINED]
[PAINED]
Timburr, Protect.
[PROTECT MOVE]
Now, Vanillite, Ice Beam.
[ICE BEAM MOVE]
Pikachu, use Thunderbolt.
[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]
[PAINED]
Timburr, use Focus Punch.
[FOCUS PUNCH MOVE] [PAINED]
[groan]
Alright, Vanillish. Show them your true power.
Use Sheer Cold.
[SHEER COLD MOVE]
Accelgor, Struggle Bug.
[STRUGGLE BUG MOVE] [SHEER COLD MOVE]
[PAINED]
And now use Swift.
[SWIFT MOVE] [PAINED]
Vanillish, no.
[EXHAUSTED]
Your time has come, Cryogonal Man.
Accelgor, kick.
[screams]
I curse you, Mighty Accelguard.
I promise you one day you'll get yours.
Long live, Team Vanillite.
You did it, Mighty Accelguard.
Right, but why would Cryogonal Man
have a Vanillish for his partner?
I really wanted a Cryogonal
but I didn't have the strength to catch it.
Wow. He's a kid too.
Sounds like Officer Jenny's here. So I'll be on my way.
- Farewell. - They're the coolest.
Accelgor and The Mighty Accelguard are awesome.
PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
Even if he needs a helping hand to get the job done
he's our hero.
NARRATOR And so The Mighty
Accelguard's mission continues
as does our heroes' incredible Unova Region journey.
