Post by bunniefuu »

CLEMONT: This way!

BONNIE: Clemont, wait UP!

CLEMONT: C'mon, stragglers! Move!

SERENA: I've never seen Clemont run this quickly!

ASH: Slow it down a little!

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

CLEMONT: There! That's it, all right! There's no doubt.

The Gadget Festival is just up ahead!

It's the largest exhibition of

mechanical devices in the entire Kalos region!

BONNIE: All this running for that?

SERENA: It's that great?

CLEMONT: Calling it great would be an insult!

All of the most brilliant and talented inventors from Kalos

will be gathering here to compete

by showing all their mechanical wares!

ASH: Wow.

SERENA: And that's more than great?

CLEMONT: Well, you just wait and see.

What are you waiting for?

ASH: Sounds like a lot of fun!

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

CLEMONT: This is it!

ASH: Wow! It's huge!

SERENA: So this is what they call the Gadget Festival!

BONNIE: Awesome!

DEDENNE: [CURIOUS]

CLEMONT: That's right.

The best and brightest,

all gathered in one magnificent setting!

Unbelievable!

CLEMONT: Even the word gadget is inspiring.

A triumph of human intelligence and skill!

The gears of my curiosity are turning

like there's no tomorrow. and they're not about to stop!

I stand tall 'Cause I know I'm a winner

Knock me down I'll just get up again

You've met your match Yeah, I'm no beginner

Pokémon

Pokémon Gotta catch 'em all!

I stand tall 'cause I know I'm a winner

Pokémon

Pokémon

Gotta catch 'em all!

BOY : Right. Just do it like that.

BONNIE: Yippee! This is so cool!

ASH: What's that?

CLEMONT: Why, you're looking at the welcome gadget.

It will help to explain

exactly what a gadget is all about with ease.

SERENA: Looks complicated.

ASH: So how does this thing even work?

PIKACHU: [MYSTIFIED]

CLEMONT: We simply place a ball in here, and.

ASH/SERENA/BONNIE/PIKACHU: [AMAZED]

BONNIE: It's still going!

ASH: Wow, gadgets are so amazing!

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

SERENA: Can't wait to see what happens next!

CLEMONT: Genius! It's an a*t*matic berry-opener!

Inspiration plus!

SERENA: Seems like a waste of time. Why build that?

SERENA: Isn't doing this a whole lot easier?

CLEMONT: Nonsense! You don't get it, do you?!

Gadgets have a sense of playfulness!

CLEMONT: Playfulness creates a variety of inventions,

which leads to new technologies!

The lives of convenience we live are all built

upon this foundation of gadgets!

CLEMONT: The name of the game is fun.

Otherwise, you'll never be able to appreciate

all that this wonderful place has to offer!

SERENA: So this is about fun.

BONNIE: Whee.

ASH: That makes sense to me!

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

CLEMONT: Fun, fun, fun, here we come!

JAMES: There!

I've just completed my Poké Ball Stealer Mark One!

MEOWTH: So now everyone's Poké Balls

are gonna be OUR Poké Balls!

JAMES: Right. All that remains is a teensy bit of a fine tune.

JESSIE: So. This is your gadget room?

JAMES: It certainly is. Something wrong?

JESSIE: Isn't a gadget what people use

to keep track of money? You know what I mean.

A household gadget!

MEOWTH: No, that's a budget, brainiac.

JESSIE: There's a difference?

JAMES: Like night and day!

JESSIE: Oh.

JAMES: Let's go to the various gadget rooms

and discover what all the others have come up with.

You know, check the competition.

MEOWTH: Right behind you!

JESSIE: Please. Gadget, budget. Who cares?

WORKER A: Sit in one of these chairs

and it will take you up.

BONNIE: YAY!

WORKER A: Now you be careful.

BONNIE: I will.

CLEMONT: I think we should go, too.

CHESPIN: [APPEARING]

BONNIE: Hey, Chespin wants to ride up with us!

SERENA: I'll bet Pancham would, too.

This'll be fun!

PANCHAM: [APPEARING]

PANCHAM/ CHESPIN: [SURPRISED]

JESSIE: Twerps! And Pikachu!

MEOWTH: I think we can catch Pikachu

before we use the Poké Ball Stealer Mark One!

JAMES: Hear, hear.

The gadget rooms should provide ample opportunities!

JESSIE: They don't want to waste money.

JAMES: Wrong word.

ASH: Must be locked.

SERENA: Give it a push.

ASH: It's stuck!

CLEMONT: I know. Pull it to the side!

ASH: Hey, you're right!

CLEMONT: That's the way with gimmicks. I love them!

ASH: Man. A wall!

CLEMONT: So it seems. Let's just see.

CLEMONT: It was really a hidden door.

BONNIE: Hey! Pikachu and the others are gone!

PIKACHU/PANCHAM/CHESPIN: [STRUGGLING]

ASH: Pikachu?

PANCHAM/CHESPIN: [CONFUSED]

PIKACHU: [CALLING]

CLEMONT: We've gotten separated,

so let's meet up later!

ASH: That okay, buddy?

PIKACHU: [AFFIRMATIVE]

BONNIE: You be good!

CLEMONT: Now, let's go this way!

ASH: So it looks like we've gotta get over those next, huh?

DEDENNE: [EXERTION] [EXCITED]

BONNIE: Here I come!

DEDENNE: [IMPATIENT]

BONNIE: Now!

CLEMONT: That's the way to do it, Bonnie!

BONNIE: This is fun!

ASH: It feels like it's been glued shut.

CLEMONT: Let me try it now.

ASH: So that's the way the door works!

JESSIE: This thing's BROKE!

MEOWTH: If it doesn't pull, try pushing.

JESSIE: That doesn't work either!

JAMES: Now, watch the master at work.

JAMES: Voilà.

JESSIE: The annoying master.

JESSIE: What IS this stupid contraption?

MEOWTH: That's a wall.

PIKACHU: [RESIGNED]

JAMES: I heard Pikachu down below!

JESSIE: My bad.

JESSIE: Balancing a household budget

makes me glad I don't have a house.

MEOWTH: It's a gadget.

JAMES: Sliding down was the right thing to do.

ASH: I think you're supposed to sit on this thing.

ASH: Whoa. Yeah.

ASH: It stopped.

SERENA: Now that's a great Gadget!

BONNIE: Like an amusement park!

DEDENNE: [AGREEMENT]

ASH: Now what? Clemont?

CLEMONT: Maybe another arm appears!

ASH: Well I can't wait!

SERENA: Good thing you didn't wait!

BONNIE/DEDENNE: [EXCITED]

SERENA: Bonnie! Hurry! Hurry!

BONNIE: Don't worry! I know!

BONNIE: Woah that thing doesn't waste time.

JESSIE: This will be like a walk in the park.

JAMES: We've got to catch up to Pikachu.

JESSIE: This is getting so old.

Stop! No more! My back! OUCH!

MEOWTH: Oy vey, Jess.

ASH: What's that?

SERENA: Wow, that's the cutest little wind-up doll

I've ever seen!

CLEMONT: Yeah, it's so well made!

BONNIE: Adorable!

ASH: It's built really well.

ASH: You want me to have a cup of tea?

ASH: That's hot! What was that for?

CLEMONT: I'm guessing that was a little bit of humor.

CLEMONT: That's part of the playfulness.

SERENA: It's obvious from the lovely way she bowed

that her manners are second to none.

JESSIE: What's going on.?

JAMES: Perhaps another arm will manifest.

JESSIE: Oh yeah? From where then?

MEOWTH: Man.

JESSIE: That little doll's a little doll!

JAMES: And it's well known all over the region!

JESSIE: How nice. You brought us tea, didn't you?

MEOWTH: Thanks for the refreshments. Ow!

My tongue turned into burnt toast!

JESSIE: We'll never catch Pikachu

while we're trapped inside this loony bin!

MEOWTH: Why don't we chill out and get my tongue some ice?

JAMES: So? It's time we employ our Poké Ball Stealer Mark One!

MEOWTH: For fun!

ASH/SERENA/CLEMONT/BONNIE: "Who's that Pokémon?"

ASH/SERENA/CLEMONT/BONNIE: "It's Pinsir!"

JESSIE/JAMES/MEOWTH: Welcome, child!

BOY A: What's up with this room?

JESSIE: You've wandered into the Poké Ball Budget Room!

MEOWTH: She means Gadget Room!

BOY A: What's it got to do with Poké Balls?

JAMES: You place your Poké Ball right in there.

BOY A: Like this?

JESSIE: I'm afraid that's not quite enough weight just yet.

SERENA: Hey, guys cut it out!

WORKER B: No, they're not in this room...

ASH: Is something the matter?

WORKER B: We've recently had several reports

of Poké Balls being stolen in the area.

SERENA: Poké Balls being stolen?

CLEMONT: That's just awful!

ASH: What's going on here?

BOY C: My Poké Balls just went down that thing!

ASH: Hold on!

CLEMONT: Down that pipe?

ASH: Yeah, that's it!

ASH: What are you guys doing in this Gadget Room anyway?

JESSIE: All the world is a stage

and budgets are an actor's tools of the trade!

MEOWTH: Whatever.

JAMES: Allow us to reveal our charade!

JESSIE: To protect the world from devastation!

JAMES: To unite all people within our nation!

JESSIE: To ease on down the Poké Ball-stealing road!

JAMES: To extend our reach till we've grabbed the last load!

JESSIE: Jessie!

JAMES: And James.

JESSIE: Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!

JAMES: Surrender now or prepare for a gadget-laden fight!

MEOWTH: Meowth, that's right!

SERENA: Team Rocket!

ASH: Give the Poké Balls back!

JESSIE: Not today.

JAMES: And away!

ASH: Come back!

BONNIE: This is fun!

DEDENNE: [EXCITED]

SERENA: Bonnie, be careful!

ASH: Stop!

MEOWTH: Awesome!

You're not hoofing it now like you have two left feet!

JESSIE: Thank you!

My true brilliance doesn't come out until I'm under pressure.

That's how genius works!

JAMES: I told her not to scoff at gadgets!

ASH: Come back!

PIKACHU: [ANGRY]

JESSIE: Yess!

ASH: Stop!

ASH: Those Poké Balls aren't yours!

We worked on this for three days and three nights

without sleeping! Our greatest work!

JAMES: It's gadget! Learn how to talk!

MEOWTH: Now for Fury Swipes.

PIKACHU: [BRACING]

PIKACHU: [AMUSED]

ASH/SERENA/BONNIE/DEDENNE: [EMBARRASSED]

JESSIE: Look,

it would have been simpler for Meowth to just use Fury Swipes!

That silly thing didn't even reach!

JAMES: NONSENSE!! Stop it!!

Gadgets should have a sense of playfulness!

It's vital to the very reason

for this machine's unbridled brilliance!
