Post by bunniefuu »

NARRATOR: It's full steam ahead,

as our heroes make their way to Lily of the Valley Island

and the Sinnoh League!

ASH: Yeah! All right!

Next stop, it's the Sinnoh League!

And man, I'm pumped!

PIPLUP: [SURPRISED] / [EXCITED]

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

PIPLUP: [PAINED] BALTOY: [PAINED]

BUCK: All right Who are you?

BALTOY: [CURIOUS]

PIPLUP: [SHEEPISH]

DAWN: Piplup, you okay?

BUCK: That Piplup smashed right into my Baltoy, see?

Baltoy, isn't that right?

BALTOY: [AGREEMENT]

DAWN: I'm so sorry! Piplup gets... eager.

Piplup, please, say you're sorry.

PIPLUP: [APOLOGETIC]

BUCK: Now, now, no need to get bent out of shape! It's okay!

BALTOY: [FRIENDLY]

BUCK: I'm Buck!

DAWN: I'm Dawn!

PIPLUP: [GREETING]

ASH: Hi! I'm Ash! ♪PIKACHU: [GREETING]

BROCK: Hi! My name's Brock!

DAWN: A Baltoy!

POKEDEX: Baltoy. The Clay Doll Pokémon.

A rarely seen Pokémon,

Baltoy is said to have been discovered in an ancient ruin.

BUCK: Going to Lily of the Valley Island for vacation?

ASH: Nah, we're going there so I can enter the Sinnoh League!

BUCK: I think I've heard of that.

ASH: Wow, you think?

DAWN: So where are you headed, Buck?

BUCK: Who, me? I'm on...

a treasure hunt!

ASH, DAWN, BROCK: A treasure hunt?

It's about you It's about me

It's about hope It's about dreams

It's about friends that work together

To claim their destiny

It's about reaching for the skies

Pokemon!

Given the courage And willing to try

It's about never giving up So hold your head up

And we will carry on... Sinnoh League Victors

Pokemon!

BUCK: See, my Baltoy has

the unique talent of finding hidden treasure!

ASH: That's awesome!

DAWN: Wow!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Hidden treasures?

BUCK: Baltoy and I are smack dab

in the middle of a treasure-hunting expedition!

BALTOY: [AGREEMENT]

BROCK: So you're a treasure hunter, right?

BUCK: Well, you could say that!

This whole treasure-hunting thing all began way back

when I accidentally discovered a sunken shipwreck

BUCK: Baltoy, where is it?

BALTOY: [EXCITED]

BUCK: You found it. Baltoy! Great!

BUCK: So I swam down, and just like Baltoy said,

I found a sunken pirate ship lying on the seabed! But then...

ASH: Empty?

BUCK: That's usually the case! So somebody got there before me.

But that's why it's so exciting when I actually find something!

BROCK: For sure!

BUCK: Okay... and here's where it gets interesting.

There was no treasure, but there was this!

ASH: Yeah, what's that?

- DAWN: A map! - BUCK: You bet!

And this map marks exactly where the pirates hid their treasure!

ASH, BROCK, DAWN: Wow...

BUCK: See that island with the symbol on it?

That's Dandelion Island!

BROCK: Hey, you're right! Dandelion Island!

DAWN: And it's where we're docking next for supplies

BUCK: Now! Take a good look on the back of this map!

You see that?

The symbol they put on the highest mountain, right there?

BROCK: But the Pokégear says it's nothing but a forest.

BUCK: Nah, I'm sure of it!

No doubt that's where the pirates hid their treasure!

Although the part I'm not getting at all

is why there are a bunch of Pokémon drawn all over this map.

ASH: Yeah. Voltorb, Pineco, Vileplume, and Graveler!

BUCK: You know, guys,

if you're going to enter a big Pokémon tournament,

then I'd think you know a whole bunch about Pokémon! Anybody?

ASH: Well, Voltorb is an Electric type...

and Pineco is a Bug type...

DAWN: Vileplume is a Grass and Poison type...

BROCK: And Graveler is a Rock and Ground type!

They have nothing in common!

BUCK: So what about these Pokémon

that look like the sun and the moon?

BROCK: Pokémon that look like the sun and the moon...

ASH: That's Solrock and Lunatone!

BUCK: Whoayou're good! So what do you think these Pokémon mean?

PIKACHU: [CURIOUS]

DAWN: Let's see...

BUCK: Tough break if you can't make sense out of this map...

Oh well! So!

How do you feel about helping me to find that treasure, Ash?

ASH: How could I say no to that?

Plus, I'll bet it'll be great training

before the Sinnoh League gets going!

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

DAWN: Yes!

It's perfect because we can do it

while the ship's in port getting supplies!

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

BROCK: It's settled then!

The ship will get supplies, and we'll find treasure!

BUCK: Thanks, you guys!

That's Dandelion Island!

ASH: Almost there!

BUCK: You don't stand a chance, treasure!

JESSIE: I say we Tr*mp the Twerps and take the treasure,

tout de suite!

MEOWTH: Did you crib the treasure map info, my bro?

JAMES: It is so!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Yo ho ho!

DAWN: Wow, a real treasure!

ASH: Okay, first thing we do is find that mountain!

BUCK: It says here it's just up ahead!

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

BUCK: Looks like someone's eager!

DAWN: Piplup, just don't get lost.

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

PIPLUP: [STUNNED]

DAWN: Piplup!

BUCK: What happened?

VOLTORB: [THREATENING]

ASH: Whoa!

Careful, Voltorb!

VOLTORB: [att*ck]

ASH: Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!

VOLTORB: [PAINED]

ASH: Quick, run!

ASH: Phew!

DAWN: That scared the daylights out of me...

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

DAWN: All right...

PIPLUP: [EXCITED] / [STUNNED]

DAWN: Not again!

PINECO: [THREATENING]

BROCK: A bunch of Pineco!

PINECO: [att*ck]

BUCK: Run!

ASH, DAWN, BROCK, BUCK, PIKACHU: [SCARED]

PIPLUP: [CONCERNED]

BUCK: You know what?

I think the Pokémon on this map are traps!

ASH: Pokémon traps?

BUCK: Uh huh!

So that nobody will be able to reach the treasure.

ASH: Pokémon used as traps...

there are supposed to be Graveler, too.

But Water types are super effective against Rock types!

DAWN: Like Piplup!

PIPLUP: [PROUD]

BROCK: Vileplume's a Grass and Poison type...

know what I mean, Ash?

ASH: Infernape's a Fire type!

BUCK: Ash, I've got to say, you're good!

I'm so glad I asked you guys to come along!

BALTOY: [AGREEMENT]

JESSIE: Fret not, my cute little treasure-treasure, we're coming!

JAMES: Say,

I wonder if the Pokémon marked on the map are noteworthy.

JESSIE: I'll bet they're a warm welcoming party

to guide us lovingly to the treasure!

JAMES: Aww! How sweet!

VOLTORB: [THREATENING]

JAMES: Neat! Without missing a b*at!

JESSIE: Okay! A-treasuring we will go!

JESSIE: With warmth like that, who needs the sun?

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

DAWN: Please, Piplup, be careful!

PIPLUP: [CONFIDENT]

PIPLUP: [SHOCKED]

PIPLUP: [PAINED]

DAWN: Oh no, Piplup!

VILEPLUME, GLOOM: [GRUMBLING]

ASH: It's a bunch of Gloom and Vileplume!

GLOOM: [ACID MOVE]

BROCK: Hey, that's Acid! Look out!

ASH: Infernape, I choose you!

INFERNAPE: [APPEARING]

ASH: Infernape, use Flamethrower!

INFERNAPE: [FLAMETHROWER MOVE]

GLOOM, VILEPLUME: [SCARED]

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

ASH: That was great, Infernape!

INFERNAPE: [EXCITED]

PIPLUP: [STUNNED]

BROCK: Okay! That should take away any ill effects.

PIPLUP: [WEAK]

DAWN: Are you feeling better, Piplup?

PIPLUP: [PLEASED]

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

JESSIE: That was their loving guidance to the treasure?

JAMES: No, that was evil protectorate pleasure.

PINECO: [THREATENING]

DAWN: Look at that!

BUCK: The mountain's beyond those caves!

ASH: So which cave are we supposed to go in?

PIPLUP: [CONFIDENT]

DAWN: You just slow down for a second, Piplup!

BUCK: Sounds like the perfect time

for Baltoy to show off its skills!

BALTOY: [CALLING]

PIPLUP: [CONFUSED]

BUCK: There! That's the one!

ASH: Let's go!

DAWN: Piplup, you'd better hurry, or you'll be left behind!

PIPLUP: [AFFIRMATIVE]

VILEPLUME GLOOM: [GRUMBLING]

JESSIE: Uh... oh.

MEOWTH: Are we heading into more evil protectorate stuff?

JESSIE: I didn't get the meaning of that the first time around!

JAMES: Well, second time's the charm...

GLOOM: [ACID MOVE]

JESSIE: Quick! Seviper, out front!

SEVIPER: [APPEARING]

JESSIE: Use Poison Tail!

SEVIPER: [POISON TAIL MOVE]

SEVIPER: [EXERTION]

JESSIE: Follow Seviper's lead!

JAMES, MEOWTH: Indeed!

BALTOY: [CALLING] / [INSISTENT]

BUCK: Right! Great job!

GRAVELER: [THREATENING]

BROCK: Graveler!

PIPLUP: [BRAVE]

DAWN: Rock types are weak to Water types!

PIPLUP: [CONFIDENT] DAWN: All right, Piplup, go!

PIPLUP: [HYDRO PUMP MOVE]

GRAVELER: [PAINED]

PIPLUP: [NERVOUS] / [PAINED]

DAWN: Piplup!

BROCK: Look out! GRAVELER: [att*ck]

ASH: Okay, now where did Buck and Baltoy end up?

DAWN: Piplup's gone, too! They could've landed anywhere!

PIKACHU: [WORRIED]

ASH: That more Graveler?

GOLEM: [THREATENING]

DAWN: Not quite! Golem!

ASH: It wasn't on the map!

BROCK: It doesn't matter!

What does is that Fighting-type moves

are super effective against Rock types!

ASH: Right!

All right, Gible! I choose you!

GIBLE: [APPEARING]

ASH: All right, Gible, use Rock Smash!

GIBLE: [ROCK SMASH MOVE]

ASH: Gible, that was awesome!

PIKACHU: [EXCITED] GIBLE: [PROUD]

ASH: Okay! We'd better find Buck and Piplup...

DAWN: How do we do that?

GIBLE: [DETERMINED]

GIBLE: [DRACO METEOR MOVE]

DAWN: No, Ash! You've got to stop Gible right now!

GIBLE: [DRACO METEOR MOVE]

PIPLUP: [PAINED]

ASH: Did you hear that?

DAWN: Yup! Piplup!

PIPLUP: [STUNNED]

BUCK: Whoa! What just happened?

BALTOY: [CURIOUS]

- DAWN: Piplup! - BROCK: There you are!

PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

BUCK: Hey, you guys are all right!

DAWN: Piplup, what about you?

PIPLUP: [INDIGNANT]

ASH: Hey, sorry about that, Piplup,

but I'm sure glad we found you!

PIPLUP: [ANNOYED] GIBLE: [GREETING]

PIPLUP: [RESIGNED]

JESSIE: All right... opinions, troops?

MEOWTH: Look! Leave the driving up to good ol' Meowth!

Eenie, meenie, miney, mo...

Catch a Twerpie by the toe.

JESSIE: Dumb luck?

JAMES: The master speaks!

MEOWTH: Hey! You need to loosen up!

All good things come to those dudes who chill out.

MEOWTH: Your concept of chilling out's a little too hot for me.

MEOWTH: Yipes! Onix, what big beady eyes you have!

ONIX: [att*ck]

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: You and your doofus diplomacy!

ASH: There it is! Let's get out of here!

BUCK: Right!

BROCK: What? Wow, that ruin isn't in my Pokégear!

BUCK: That's it! That's where the treasure is!

ASH: Why would pirates stash a treasure in a ruin?

PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [CURIOUS]

BROCK: So that means

the Solrock and Lunatone we saw on the map...

DAWN: Represent these paintings on the ruins!

BUCK: Guys, up here!

BUCK: Wait until you get a load of this!

BROCK: Look at those patterns!

BALTOY: [EXCITED]

BUCK: Baltoy, what's up?

BALTOY: [EXCITED]

ASH: Whoa, what's this?

BUCK: Think we're supposed to do something with this.

BROCK: It could be another trap.

BUCK: Yeah, I know!

BUCK: What was that?

JESSIE: Why, that's all us, all the time!

JAMES: This is the way we swoop in sublime!

- JESSIE: On the wind! - JAMES: Past the stars!

MEOWTH: In our prime!

JESSIE: Bringing chaos at a breakneck pace!

JAMES: Dashing hope, putting fear in its place!

JESSIE: A rose by any other name's just as sweet!

JAMES: When everything's worse, our work is complete!

-JESSIE: Jessie! -JAMES: And James!

MEOWTH: Meowth's the name!

JESSIE: Putting you do-gooders in your place!

JAMES: We're Team Rocket!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: In your face!

JESSIE: No sense toiling over that treasure

since it's ours already!

BUCK: You're nuts! We found it first, so it's ours!

JAMES: Second, fools!

Team Rocket makes the treasure rules!

MEOWTH: We're taking it while every one of you drools!

ASH: No way we're letting you!

DAWN: Get over it!

MEOWTH: There's no Twerpie like a naive Twerpie...

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Oofah!

CLAYDOL: [THREATENING]

JAMES: Claydol!

MEOWTH: Don't see them much!

JESSIE: And worth oodles!

ASH: That's the treasure?

BUCK: Claydol?

- DAWN: Hold on! - BUCK: What's up?

DAWN: Those patterns on the stones

are the same patterns that are on Claydol!

POKEDEX: Claydol. The Clay Doll Pokémon,

and the evolved form of Baltoy.

Claydol is said to have come to life when an ancient doll

made from clay was exposed to mysterious light.

DAWN: Claydol must have something to do with this ruin!

BUCK: I'll bet Claydol's guarding the treasure!

JESSIE: We'll just fix that! Seviper!

SEVIPER: [APPEARING]

JAMES: Carnivine, join the fray!

JAMES: Excuse me! My head's frayed enough!

Fray with the Twerps!

JESSIE: All right, Seviper! Poison Tail, presto!

JAMES: Carnivine, b*llet Seed!

CLAYDOL: [EXERTION]

CLAYDOL: [att*ck]

JESSIE: Sometimes I get the feeling

treasure is not to be in our future...

JAMES: Falling prey to every prank a Pokémon can pull

doesn't help!

MEOWTH: At least you can't say we're not consistent!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: And blasting off again!

DAWN: It's targeting us!

PIPLUP: [BRAVE]

DAWN: Okay, Piplup, Bubble Beam!

PIPLUP: [BUBBLE BEAM MOVE]

CLAYDOL: [LIGHT SCREEN MOVE]

BROCK: Wow, that's Claydol's Light Screen!

CLAYDOL: [att*ck]

PIPLUP: [PAINED]

DAWN: Piplup!

CLAYDOL: [att*ck]

ASH: It's strong!

BUCK: It's not guarding the ruins for nothing!

ASH: Okay, Torterra! I choose you!

TORTERRA: [APPEARING] CLAYDOL: [THREATENING]

ASH: Torterra, Leaf Storm, go!

TORTERRA: [LEAF STORM MOVE]

CLAYDOL: [att*ck]

ASH: Energy Ball!

TORTERRA: [ENERGY BALL MOVE] CLAYDOL: [EXERTION]

ASH: Torterra can't stop it either!

BUCK: Ash. I'll do it.

BUCK: Claydol evolved from a Baltoy, right?

Maybe we'll be able to take care of this!

All right, Baltoy, use Shadow Ball!

BALTOY: [SHADOW BALL MOVE]

BALTOY: [EXERTION]

BALTOY: [PAINED]

BUCK: Baltoy! Keep your guard up!

BALTOY: [AFFIRMATIVE]

BUCK: Now! Use Gyro Ball!

BALTOY: [GYRO BALL MOVE]

CLAYDOL: [CONFUSED]

ASH: Wow, Baltoy rocks!

DAWN, BROCK: Great, Baltoy! Yeah!

PIPLUP, PIKACHU: [CHEERING]

BALTOY: [att*ck] CLAYDOL: [CONFUSED]

BUCK: Wow, when it comes to speed,

Baltoy's much faster than Claydol!

CLAYDOL, BALTOY: [BATTLING]

BUCK: Baltoy, use Solar Beam!

BALTOY: [SOLAR BEAM MOVE]

CLAYDOL: [LIGHT SCREEN MOVE]

CLAYDOL: [CONFUSED]

BUCK: Perfect! Baltoy, use Gyro Ball!

CLAYDOL: [IMPACT]

BUCK: Go! Poké Ball!

BUCK: All right!

BUCK: I did it! Finally! I've got a Claydol!

ASH, DAWN, BROCK, PIKACHU: Yeah!

BROCK: Whoa!

BUCK: Is that?

DAWN: Could that be the treasure?

BROCK: Wow, Buck, that treasure map is obviously the real deal!

ASH: Hold on. That's treasure?

DAWN: Yeah, where's all the gold and silver?

BUCK: What are you guys talking about? This is the treasure!

ASH: You've got to be kidding me.

BUCK: No! After I analyze the clay's components,

I'll know which era it comes from!

These are all museum-quality pieces!

They're priceless treasures...

from an archaeological point of view, of course!

ASH: Archaeological?

BUCK: Yeah! You may not have guessed it by looking at me,

but I want to become an archaeology professor someday!

DAWN: Professor? No way!

BUCK: Way! I'll bet to you guys,

these are nothing but weird pots!

Look at this one! Amazing!

I've never seen this shape before!

BUCK: Okay, guys!

I'm getting on a different ferry.

I've been hearing about treasure hidden somewhere

up on Stark Mountain!

DAWN: I hope you find it!

BUCK: No doubt about it. It's my thing! Hey, Ash...

thanks for all the help you guys gave me.

And good luck at the Sinnoh League!

ASH: Hey, thanks, Buck! PIKACHU: [HAPPY]

- ASH: See you, Buck! - DAWN: Bye! Take care!

BROCK: Happy hunting!

BROCK: You're almost there, Ash.

DAWN: You'll be in the Sinnoh League

before you know it!

ASH: Hey, Pikachu, you ready to win it?

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

NARRATOR: It boggles the mind imagining all the Pokémon

and battles awaiting Ash at the Sinnoh League,

which only adds to the excitement!

So be sure to stay tuned, as the journey continues!
