[bunniefuu]

[playful music]

one of the world's greatest Trainers, Leon.

Goh's goal is to catch one of every kind of Pokémon,

including Mew.

This is the story of their adventure-filled journey

through the world of Pokémon!

[camera shutter clicks]

[light music]

[Rillaboom ] Rilla!

Rilla?

Rilla, rillaboom.

[sleepy groan]

Who is that?

[gasps]

Rillaboom.

Rilla-rilla, boom-boom. Rilla-rilla.

[continues gasping]

[Goh] No way!

[pants] It can't be!

What's a Rillaboom doing in my house?

-[Rillaboom ] Huh? Rillaboom? -Ah!

Eh…

Rillaboom. Ah.

What? Another one?

-Rilla, rilllaboom. -[gasps]

Rilla-rilla. Rilla-rilla-rillaboom.

-Rilla-rillabom. -Hmm?

[yelps]

[screams]

[panting]

Just a… dream.

Whoa, that was so scary!

Hmm…

[theme music]

[Goh] "When A House…"

[Ash] "…Is Not A Home!"

Hmm… What's wrong?

-Pika, pika. -[gasps]

[Ash] It's a Pokémon!

How'd you get that?

[Rotom phone] Grookey. The Chimp Pokémon.

A Grass type.

Grookey attacks by beating with a stick.

As the speed of its beats increases,

Grookey's excitement does, too.

[groans]

Hey, it looks like that Grookey is a Pokémon from the Galar region.

You know what?

I had a nightmare about Rillaboom.

Rillaboom?

[Rotom phone] Rillaboom. Grookey's final evolved form.

[Ash] Aw, it was just a dream.

So tell me how the Grookey got here!

-It was here when I woke up. -Wow!

Lucky.

-Pika. -Pikachu?

Are you imitating Grookey for me?

Pikachu!

Hm. Now that I think about it calmly,

it feels like I totally lucked out. Huh?

'Kay, Poké Ball… go!

It does not belong to you. Don't be a thief!

A thief?

So that must mean someone else caught that Grookey before you did.

Yeah, you're right. Bummer.

[Ash] But whose Pokémon is it?

[Goh] Hmm.

Grookey?

-Ah. -It… woke up!

[gasps]

[yelps]

-Huh? -Grookey!

[Goh] Ow! Ow! Ow! Hey!

[pained groan]

Ah! Stop it!

-Key! -Pi?

-Ke-key! Kekeke! -Pikachu!

Mime, mime.

Mime?

-Morning, Mimey! -Agh.

Grookey!

Mime!

Grookey, grookey!

Mime, mime!

-[both] Huh? -[Grookey yelps]

-[Mimey chuckles] -[Grookey gibbers]

Groo! Groo-groo!

-Ke-key! Keke-keke-keke-ke! -Oh, mime, mime, mime.

Check it out! It's pretty annoyed.

That Grookey's not just a mischief-maker.

It's stubborn, too.

Pikachu.

Keke-keke-ke! [tired groan]

[Mimey] Mime?

-Oh, wow! -What's going on?

[tummy rumbling]

Ah!

I get it!

It loses its energy when it gets hungry, just like you do, Ash.

Then let's all have breakfast together!

Pika!

[chomping]

-You must have been starving… -[Ash] Mm-hm.

You bet!

That's why I like breakfast even more than dinner!

Uh, I was talking to the Grookey.

[both chomping]

-[chomping continues] -Pi.

-[gibbers] -Pika.

-[thumps] -Pika!

-[laughing] -Pikachu!

[Grookey snickers]

-Huh? -[Grookey gibbers]

[Goh] Stop that! I'd better…

Hold it! [sighs]

Grookey.

I said hold it!

Now where'd it go?

-Ah… -[Ash] Hey! Grookey?

[Goh] Hm?

-Sobble. -[Goh] Sobble!

[embarrassed groan]

What in the world are you doing in there?

-Grookey! -[Ash and Goh] Huh?

-Pika. -[Ash and Goh] Wait!

I'll see you later!

Eevee-vee!

Take care, Chloe!

-Grookey! -[Chloe] Hmm…

Hey! Stop!

What's that?

[screams]

Come on, Grookey! Stop it.

Ee… Eevee-vee!

-[both gibber, grunt] -Ke-key!

-[both] Huh! -Grookey!

[Chloe] What is that thing?

-That's called a Grookey. -But why is it here?

We'll explain later.

For now, let's just catch it!

[both grunting angrily]

-Uh-oh. -No, don't!

[groans] Pika!

Yamper!

Chu!

[all screaming]

[all groan]

[laughing]

[Cerise] So, when you woke up, it was sleeping on your arm?

Fascinating.

And it isn't even wild.

It's somebody's partner!

Sometimes the weirdest things happen. Oh!

Maybe it's just one of Gengar's pranks!

-Ah! -[Gengar grunts]

I don't think so.

I'm… I'm sorry for doubting you!

[nervous groan]

-[relieved sigh] -[sheepish laugh]

Anyway… we still don't know where Grookey came from, do we?

You're right.

If it has a partner, they'll definitely be really worried by now!

[both] Hmm.

I just did an online search

and there's nothing about a Grookey being lost.

Now what will we do?

Uh…

-Of course! It's Yamper! -Yamper?

If we use Yamper's sensitive nose and trace Grookey's scent,

maybe we'll learn where it came from!

Yeah, nice idea!

Hmm. If all goes well,

we'll be able to return Grookey to its partner.

Right! 'Kay, Yamper, you can do it!

[pants]

Yamper.

First, we have to figure out how the Grookey got into our room.

Here, Yamper.

This is the scent. Got it?

[sniffing]

Yamper, yamper!

-All right! -Let's follow it!

Pika, pika!

[sniffing]

[Yamper pants]

Huh?

[Goh] The door was left open!

Yamper, yamper. [panting]

[Yamper barking]

I think it came in from way up here?

That's a long way to climb.

-[Yamper barking] -[both] Huh?

-[Yamper continues barking] -[Goh] What's up, Yamper?

Yamper, yamper!

Pika?

[Ash] Yeah? From down there?

[Goh] We're all the way back to square one.

[sniffing]

[Yamper barking]

Is this the place, Yamper?

-[exclaims] -[Ash and Goh] Ah!

Grookey.

It went inside!

Which would mean that maybe…

whoever's inside is its partner!

[dings]

[Ash] Excuse us!

[Goh] We have some questions we'd like to ask about a Grookey!

-[leaves rustling] -[Grookey] Grookey!

-Keke-keke-keke-ke! -[Dodrio crying]

-Ke-kekey! -[crying continues]

-Hold on! -Stop that!

Grookey.

Yamper!

-Grookey. -Huh?

[Goh] Hey, wait up!

Isn't it nice out?

-Grookey! -Huh?

Grookey, keke-keke-ke!

Marowak!

Key! Ke-key!

Marowak! No fighting!

[Marowak and Grookey grumbling]

Grookey, stop that!

[playful music]

-[both sigh wearily] -Huh?

[Ash] It's exhausted again.

[chomps]

Wow. You're scarfing that down like it tastes great!

Sure. I like lunch even more than I like dinner!

I was talking to the Grookey!

Huh? Grookey?

Grookey-key!

Grookey!

Ke, ke, ke, ke, ke!

[both gasp]

[Grookey gibbering]

That's so amazing!

Grookey is able to make flowers perk right up!

So then it's a whole lot nicer than we thought!

Yeah, but maybe it's still playing around.

-[grumbling] -Ow! That hurts! Stop it!

Give it up!

[tranquil music]

-Yamper, yamper, yamper! -Huh?

[panting, sniffing]

[panting continues]

What's up?

[Yamper barks]

I'd say the scent vanished right here.

In a place like this?

-Pika? -[Goh] Hmmm.

Let's ask the shop clerk!

You know, maybe we'll learn something from the security camera recordings.

-Would you mind if we watched them? -Sure, why not?

Pika.

[Ash and Goh] Huh!

[Ash] But that machine…

It's Team Rocket's!

[suspenseful music]

-Ah! -Ah!

[gentle music]

It can't be!

So Grookey…

…is Team Rocket's Pokémon!

Grookey.

[Ash] Who's that Pokémon?

[cheerful music]

-Pika? -Grookey!

Pika, pika.

[despondent music]

Grookey?

Are you really a member of Team Rocket?

Grookey.

Pika.

I'm not mad at you or anything.

It's just…

[Ash and Goh] What? Who's there?

[Jessie] Prepare for trouble. You should know that by now!

[James] And make it double. We deserve a big bow!

To protect the world from devastation!

To unite all people within our nation!

To denounce the evils of truth and love!

To extend our reach to the stars above!

-Jessie! -And James!

Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!

Surrender now or prepare for a skyscraping fight!

Meowth, that's right!

Wobbuffet!

[Ash] Team Rocket! You guys again!

We're where Pikachu is!

Along with a rare Galar Pokémon!

It's two-for-one time!

Not today! Farfetch'd, Night Slash!

Farfetch'd!

-[groans] -Pika!

Use Brutal Swing!

Far…

-[Team Rocket screaming] -[Farfetch'd] Fetch'd!

We'll see about that!

[all] Come on down!

-[Pelipper calling] -[action music playing]

[squawks]

[thuds]

Feast your eyes.

Yippee!

[Jessie and James] Our secret… Rocket Prize Master!

[James] Poké ba*ls say…

-[Meowth] Speak to me! -[James] Huh?

-What? Just one? -All we need!

A super-duper Pokémon! [grunts]

[action music stops]

[comical music]

-[all gasping] -It's empty!

-Huh? -Oh.

Grookey, the Chimp Pokémon.

Chimp Pokémon?

[James] Grookey?

Uh, let's get real here.

You want me to believe this is Grookey's Poké Ball?

So if I said, "Grookey, return!"

The Poké Ball would scoop it right up?

Puhleeze! I won't be holding my bated breath…

Or will I?

-No way! -Aah!

Grookey!

Me thinks it's time to pull back!

Eat my dust!

-[explodes] -[both cough]

Grookey!

Eh. Ah. Huh?

[somber music]

Talk about a plot twist out of nowhere.

[gibbers]

Grookey.

Grookey. Grookey.

That belongs to Morpeko!

[Grookey] Grookey. [grunts]

Whoa! Safe!

Stop it! Aah!

[both yelp]

-[Grookey] Grookey. -You're being a pain!

[foreboding music]

-[Morpeko] Morpeko! -We're innocent!

Oh, there's the thief!

Grookey, we told you no!

Morpeko!

-[Morpeko gibbers angrily] -[Team Rocket screaming]

-[Morpeko] Morpeko, peko! -[Team Rocket] Ooh!

[somber music]

-[Ash] Goh? -Huh?

Sorry. What?

-Can I turn out the lights? -Uh, yeah.

[somber music continues]

[Ash] You're thinking about Grookey, huh?

Yeah.

My forearm feels empty.

-Grookey sure is fun, you know? -Yeah.

Who would've believed it was a Team Rocket Pokémon?

I wonder if it's still having any fun.

[Goh] I hope so.

Groo, groo.

[whispers] [Grookey] Grookey.

Key. Grookey. Grookey. Key.

[Team Rocket snoring]

Grookey-key!

-[Ash] Goh? -Huh?

[Ash] Where are you going?

Aren't you gonna eat breakfast?

I was hoping I could at least give this stick back to Grookey.

Hold on.

You don't know where Team Rocket is, right?

Right. So, I'll just track them down!

-Yamper! -Got it.

Okay, I'll help out!

Pika, pika.

Come on, Ash,

don't you love breakfast more than dinner?

[chuckles]

It's right here.

[Jessie] Gone! Gone! It's gone!

It's totally gone!

Gadzooks!

Headquarters found and caught it in the first place!

If we've lost Grookey, they'll lose us!

Wobbuffet!

We'll leave no rock unturned!

But it's a Grass type.

And all this bugs me.

[sniffs]

[Ash] Why do they show up when we don't want them?

But now that we do want them, they disappear.

Ya!

[Goh] There's the park from yesterday.

[pants, barks]

[Goh] Huh? Is it there?

[both panting]

Huh?

[Goh panting]

Huh? Ah…

[Ash panting]

Goh?

Pika.

[Ash and Goh] Hmm?

-Grookey! -Grookey!

-[laughing] -[squealing]

I was hoping I'd find you!

Thank goodness! It's safe.

Pikachu.

-[Goh] Here. You wanted this back, right? -Ah?

Grookey!

[Jessie] Thanks for the return!

[Ash] Team Rocket!

Don't you dare blame us for your thievery!

When you blow it, it's on you!

You messed up two times in a row!

Stealing's a big no-no!

All right, come to Aunt Jessie!

[angry grunt]

-Playing hard to get, eh? -[scoffs]

You can complain all you want,

but as long as I have your Poké Ball…

[James] You belong to Team Rocket!

[Jessie] We'll just send you back to headquarters.

They'll set you straight!

-Prepare for trouble. It's your fate! -No way!

[grumbles]

Stop that!

It doesn't wanna go!

[Jessie] Stifle it, Twerp! Out of my way!

-Pikachu! -Pika! Pi… Pika.

-[yelps] -Grookey!

[grunting]

[both yelp]

Grook, grook, grookey!

Come on.

You really want the brainy Twerp to catch you?

Oh.

Would you like that, Grookey?

Grookey!

This is no time for a translation!

[groans] No, stop!

-I was pulling your leg! -Right!

Grookey, let's go!

-I call first dibs on you! -Poké Ball, go!

[tense music]

[groans]

[groans]

Grookey!

[playful music]

-[chimes] -Ha!

[Rotom phone] Grookey has been registered to your Pokédex!

-Yes! -All right!

[both gasp]

Grookey… come out!

Grookey!

-What will we do now? -[groans]

We circle back to Plan A!

To snatch both Pikachu and Grookey with our Super-Ultra Rocket Nab Net!

Pikachu, Thunderbolt, let's go!

Pika… chu!

-[zapping] -[Team Rocket screaming]

[Team Rocket] We're blasting off again!

[Wobbuffet] Wobbuffet!

Grookey, grookey. Key, key, key.

Pika, pika.

-Yamper, yamper. -Pika.

[Goh] And after all is said and done,

Grookey's become a friend of mine.

Grookey!

-[Cerise, Ren, and Chrysa gasping] -[Pokémon chatter]

[Chrysa] It's adorable!

It's already friends with Pikachu and Yamper!

Eevee, can you make friends with it, too?

Eevee.

[in regretful voice] Grookey.

Whoa, Grookey must be apologizing!

Because of yesterday.

Hear that? Now what do you say?

-[sniffs] -[worried groan]

-Eevee-vee. -[surprised squeal]

Yes! I think it'll be able to make friends with all the other Pokémon!

Grookey-key!

Eevee-vee.

[Eevee groaning]

-Uh… -You can't do that, Grookey!

-Hey! Come on. Stop it! -Eevee-vee!

[narrator] With Grookey as the newest resident of Cerise Park,

things are sure to get a lot livelier!

But how will Goh train Grookey?

The answer to come, as the journey continues!
