11x10 - Tanks for the Memories!

Post by bunniefuu »

DAWN: Smell the air! It's so fresh!

ASH: And Veilstone Gym here we come!

After we win there, I'll have badge number three!

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

DAWN: That's what I like to hear, Ash!

ASH: Thanks for the good word! What're you going to do there?

DAWN: Well, I...

DAWN: I know! This'll be the perfect time

to kick back a bit and think about my next contest!

BROCK: Great! And I think I've found

the perfect place to do just that!

PIKACHU: [CURIOUS]

ASH: So where?

BROCK: You just follow me!

DAWN, ASH, PIKACHU: [SURPRISED]

BROCK: You're going to love this!

NARRATOR: As our heroes continue their journey

to Veilstone City and Ash's next Gym challenge,

there's no doubt that Brock's unbridled enthusiasm

has peaked everyone's curiosity! Just where are they headed?

On a road, far from home,

you don't have to feel alone.

Brave and strong,

together we will be.

It's our destiny!

We will be heroes,

We can change the world if we try!

I go where you go,

Forever friends, you and I!

We will be heroes!

Battle Dimension Pokémon!

BROCK: Here we are! Presenting the Mountain Hut Maid Café!

-DAWN: Maid café? -ASH: Never heard of it

PIKACHU: [CONFUSED]

BROCK: It's like a second home to me! I'm back!

MAID GIRLS []: Hello! Welcome home!

ASH: What do they mean welcome home?

BROCK: Oh that?

It's just their way of making you feel relaxed

and comfortable like you're in your own home!

SPRING: Here you go!

BROCK: Thank you! Hi there! My name's Brock!

What might your name be?

SPRING: I'm Spring!

SUMMER: Summer! AUTUMN: Autumn!

BROCK: If you radiant beauties

have some free time after work...

BROCK: ...I could use some CPR!

CROAGUNK: [CROAKING]

SPRING: Dear! I hope he's all right!

DAWN: With you three, he'll be just fine!

SPRING: So what will it be?

DAWN: Well, what's looking good today?

AUTUMN: Our specialty is our farm-fresh Miltank milk!

BROCK: So true!

ASH, PIKACHU, DAWN: [AMUSED]

DAWN: What did I tell you?!

BROCK: Miltank milk is bursting with vitamins!

Nothing could be healthier to drink!

ASH: A round for me and my Pokémon!

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

DAWN: Me and my Pokémon too!

SPRING: In that case, I think it's time

for a trip to the barn!

SPRING: All right! We've got some thirsty customers!

AUTUMN: Time to come in!

MILTANK [X]: [EXCITED]

ASH: Awesome! Look at them go!

POKEDEX: Miltank. The Milk Cow Pokémon.

It is widely known that drinking Miltank milk when you're young

helps you grow up to be strong and healthy.

SPRING: Those two Miltank are mine,

and that Miltank right there is Summer's!

DAWN: Autumn, what about you?

AUTUMN: I actually do have a Miltank, but...

MILTANK [X]: [HAPPY]

ASH: Wow, they're going in all by themselves!

BROCK: And that's a sign of excellent training!

SPRING: Here! Your fresh milk!

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

BROCK: Yum!

ASH: Everyone's going to love it!

ASH: All right time for a milk break!

BUIZEL, STARAVIA, CHIMCHAR, TURTWIG: [APPEARING]

BROCK: You too!

CROAGUNK, HAPPINY, SUDOWOODO: [APPEARING]

DAWN: Let's go g*ng!

PIPLUP, BUNEARY, PACHIRISU, AMBIPOM: [APPEARING]

POKEMON: [HAPPY] CROAGUNK: [REPULSED]

AUTUMN: That's so cute! Is it good?

HAPPINY: [HAPPY]

BROCK: Autumn, where's your Miltank anyway?

AUTUMN: She's out there...

ASH: I see her! Sitting out in the meadow!

AUTUMN: Her name's Ilta, and I just got her.

But for some strange reason, she won't listen to a thing I say.

ASH: She's probably not used to you yet...

DAWN: It's natural if she just got here!

AUTUMN: That's not it! The truth is Ilta is one selfish Miltank!

And she's not even that cute,

so I'm just starting to think I'll just let her go!

BROCK: That's wrong!

BROCK: You can't do that!

Giving up on your Miltank without first taking enough time

to get to know her and understand her

is no good for either of you!

AUTUMN: Right...

SPRING: Wow, Brock you certainly are a wise man.

BROCK: Thanks! I'm working to be a top Pokémon breeder,

so I really think I could help Autumn

work out any problems with her Miltank!

AUTUMN: You mean it, Brock?

BROCK: Yes, I'm all yours!

AUTUMN: Uh, I think you're supposed to be helping me

CROAGUNK: [att*ck]

BROCK: I could use some help.

CROAGUNK: [AMUSED]

SUMMER: We have a ton of customers! So let's go!

SPRING: Great, I'm coming!

Why don't you stay and listen to more of Brock's wisdom, Autumn?

AUTUMN: Good idea!

ASH: Whoa, I guess this place can get really busy.

DAWN: What do you say you and I give them a hand?

ASH: Sounds good! PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

DAWN: Yeah!

PACHIRISU, AMBIPOM, BUNEARY, PIPLUP: [HAPPY]

PIKACHU, TURTWIG: [AMUSED]

ASH: Isn't this a bit over the top?

SPRING: I'm sorry, but that's all we've got!

SUMMER: Don't worry about it! You look great!

CUSTOMER & : We're back!

ASH: I'll show them some real service! Welcome home!

PIKACHU, TURTWIG: [EXCITED][DETERMINED]

JAMES: A maid café can be a gold mine!

MEOWTH: If you make the customers

feel like they're number one, they'll pay through the nose!

JESSIE: My prize-winning role awaits!

JAMES, MEOWTH: Role?

JESSIE: With my acting prowess,

they'll be customer putty in my hands!

My red-hot performance will burn holes

in their bulging billfolds!

JAMES: It's a maid café not a fire sale.

MEOWTH: Nice to know a happy customer

and his money are soon parted!

WOBBUFFET: [PROUD]

JESSIE: I've even got the coffee!

JAMES: That was going to save me from a caffeine headache!

JESSIE: The customer comes first at our maid café!

MEOWTH: Hooray!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JAMES: Here comes a migraine.

BROCK: When raising a Pokémon there's one thing

you must do above all else and that thing is to earn its trust!

AUTUMN: I have a question, please!

Exactly how does one earn a Pokémon's trust?

BROCK: Good question!

The first thing you do is bond with your Pokémon!

AUTUMN: Bond with her?

BROCK: Watch.

BROCK: Hey Happiny, see that flower there?

BROCK: Pretty isn't it?

HAPPINY: [CURIOUS / HAPPY] HAPPINY: [EXCITED]

BROCK: Just like that!

AUTUMN: I understand now, Brock! I'll give it a try!

AUTUMN: Excuse me, Ilta! See the flower?

AUTUMN: Ilta? Flower?

ILTA: [YAWNING]

AUTUMN: Oh! Ilta, please!

BROCK: Just relax! Be kind and patient.

AUTUMN: Right!

AUTUMN: Look, Ilta! Isn't this flower nice?

ILTA: [CURIOUS]

AUTUMN: No! You're supposed to admire it, not eat it!

ILTA: [CONTENT]

BROCK: Was it good? I'll bet it tasted great!

ILTA: [SATISFIED]

AUTUMN: Okay! I'll bet it tasted great, too!

ILTA: [CURIOUS]

ILTA: [BURP]

AUTUMN: That was completely disgusting and gross!

BROCK: Now, now. Kindness and patience.

AUTUMN: I understand.

BROCK: Let's work on praise giving!

It's good for building morale,

and we could all use a bit more of that, right?

AUTUMN: Okay!

BROCK: All right, Happiny. Let's cross the bridge!

HAPPINY: [AFFIRMATIVE]

HAPPINY: [SCARED]

BROCK: Now don't be afraid! I know you can do it!

HAPPINY: [AFFIRMATIVE] HAPPINY: [DETERMINED] / [HAPPY]

BROCK: Happiny, that was great!

HAPPINY: [EXCITED]

BROCK: I tell you, you're a real champ!

BROCK, HAPPINY: [HAPPY]

AUTUMN: That's so sweet! Wish we could be that close!

BROCK: Okay you two! It's your turn!

AUTUMN: Right! Let's go Ilta!

AUTUMN: Come on Ilta. Time's a wasting!

BROCK: Hurry, Ilta! I've got some Pecha berries for you!

AUTUMN, ILTA: [EXCITED]

ILTA: [EXERTION]

AUTUMN: Hey, what's wrong?

BROCK: Remember Autumn, you've got to cheer her on!

AUTUMN: Oh yeah. That's right! Now, show some spine!

AUTUMN: Don't worry. I'm here!

AUTUMN: Help me please!

BROCK: I'm coming hold tight!

AUTUMN: No, I'm slipping!

AUTUMN: Oh Brock!

BROCK: Now, just hang on tight, and I'll pull you up!

AUTUMN: Okay!

HAPPINY: [EXERTION]

ILTA, HAPPINY: [HAPPY]

AUTUMN: I'm sorry! I'm so clumsy you could have really been hurt!

I don't deserve a wonderful teacher like you.

BROCK: I don't care if you're a little bit clumsy!

BROCK: All I care about is you don't give up!

AUTUMN: Oh Brock!

BROCK: Now, time for the next lesson!

AUTUMN: Right!

AMBIPOM, BUNEARY, PIPLUP, PACHIRISU, PIKACHU: [EXERTION]

SPRING: Whew! We made it through the rush hour,

so I can handle things myself from here on in!

ASH: Great!

ASH: Now, let's practice that Energy Ball

and get ready for our Gym Battle!

TURTWIG: [AFFIRMATIVE]

ASH: We'll get the Veilstone Badge for sure!

PIPLUP: [HAPPY] / [SURPRISED]

PIPLUP: [CURIOUS]

CUSTOMER : Imagine a maid café out here!

It's not even on the map!

CUSTOMER : I'll bet it was just built!

CUSTOMER & : We're back!

JESSIE: And a big welcome home!

I'm your astoundingly beautiful maid with the most-est!

JAMES: And I'll be your silky

smooth-talking short order taker.

MEOWTH: And I'm so young and cute,

I'll knock that scarf right off of your head!

JESSIE: Aw! Isn't that sweet? You're shy!

CUSTOMER & : We are?

JESSIE: There! Comfy?

JAMES: What'll it be?

JESSIE: Coffee, right?

CUSTOMER & : No!

MEOWTH: Cup of joe. Don't be slow!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

TURTWIG: [DETERMINED]

ASH: Get together everything you got

and focus it in all your leaves!

PIKACHU: [ENCOURAGING]

ASH: All right, now you put all that energy into a single point!

ASH: Go!

ASH: Not this time.

PIKACHU: [DISAPPOINTED] TURTWIG: [SAD]

ASH: Hey don't take it so hard!

PIKACHU: [REASSURING]

ASH: As long as you keep practicing like that,

you're bound to get it!

PIKACHU: [ENCOURAGING]

TURTWIG: [EXCITED]

ASH: Okay, I know you want that third Gym badge as much as I do!

ASH, TURTWIG, PIKACHU: [EXCITED][PLAYFUL]

DAWN: Ash's sure having fun working hard...

So I'll work hard, too!

ZOEY: In the middle of all that flash Ambipom's disappeared!

You've got to remember your Pokémon are the main attraction!

You've spent so much time polishing your moves,

you've forgotten what you really need to do to show them off!

DAWN: But now I'm not sure what to practice.

PIPLUP: [WORRIED]

DAWN: I'm fine. I'm sorry I had you so worried!

I do know a Trainer shouldn't act the way I've been acting!

DAWN: Oops.

DAWN: Hi, Ash...

PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

ASH: How come you're crying, Dawn?

DAWN: It's nothing!

ASH: Did you get something in your eye?

DAWN: Yeah! That's it!

ASH: I'm kind of hungry,

so why don't we go and get something to eat?

DAWN: How does some ice cream sound? Good?

ASH: Now you're talking! Come on!

PIKACHU, PIPLUP, TURTWIG: [EXCITED]

BROCK: Let's talk about shampoo and grooming!

BROCK: It is to make sure your Pokémon looks good,

but it's also the perfect time to make sure

your Pokémon's healthy! Ready to give it a try?

AUTUMN: All set!

BROCK: Back and forth, but gently!

AUTUMN: Right, I see!

AUTUMN: Ilta, stay just like that!

I'll be nice and gentle.

AUTUMN: Nice and gentle, back and forth, nice and gen-

AUTUMN: Oh no, what have I done?

-BROCK: Relax! -AUTUMN: Right!

BROCK, ILTA: [ANNOYED]

AUTUMN: I'm so sorry! Hold on I'll get you a towel!!

BROCK: Are you okay?

AUTUMN: No Brock, I'm not okay! I'm so clumsy and useless!

All I ever do is cause trouble!

BROCK: Remember, a Trainer can't lose it like that

and expect their Pokémon to obey!

BROCK: Rule number one:

The most important thing when raising a Pokémon...

AUTUMN: Uh, you have to earn a Pokemon's trust?

BROCK: Bingo! So come on, dry your eyes!

AUTUMN: Sorry!

AUTUMN: I won't cry again!

BROCK: Now, that's the spirit!

CUSTOMER : This isn't coffee!

CUSTOMER : It's nothing but a cup of hot water!

JESSIE: Stop!

JESSIE: If you've got a complaint,

I suggest you be up front about it!!

CUSTOMER : Wow, this isn't as much like home as I thought!

CUSTOMER : There's no place like home, but this isn't it!

CUSTOMER : They didn't even have any Miltank milk,

so who needs this dumb joint?

CUSTOMER & : We're out of here!

MEOWTH: Come back!

JAMES: You're such gifted conversationalists!

MEOWTH: I knew it.

This milk-less Miltank scene is k*lling us!

JAMES: But it's not like you

find Miltank milk growing on trees!

JESSIE: Where there's a will, there's a way!

We'll launch our own government milk program!

WOBBUFFET: [DETERMINED]

ILTA: [EXCITED]

AUTUMN: Where are you going?!

ILTA: [EXERTION]

ILTA: [EXCITED] [EXERTION]

BEEDRILL : [ANGRY] ILTA: [SHOCKED / SCARED]

AUTUMN: Beedrill!

BROCK: This is when you need to stay calm

and protect your Pokémon!

ILTA: [PANICKED] AUTUMN: Right!

BEEDRILL : [CURIOUS]

BROCK: Try to move slowly,

so you don't get the Beedrill excited...

AUTUMN: Okay!

BEEDRILL : [EXCITED]

-AUTUMN: Stay away! -BROCK: Autumn!

ILTA: [WORRIED]

HAPPINY: [FOCUSED]

BEEDRILL : [STUNNED]

AUTUMN: What happened to them?

BROCK: Quick, now's our chance!

AUTUMN: Okay! Come on Ilta!

ILTA: [SHOCKED]

BROCK, AUTUMN, ILTA: [EXHAUSTED]

BROCK: We should be safe out here...

AUTUMN: Okay!

ILTA: [HAPPY]

AUTUMN: Ilta!

BROCK: Hey Happiny,

did you use some kind of move on the Beedrill back there?

HAPPINY: [EXCITED]

BROCK: Autumn! Ilta!

BROCK: Stop!!

AUTUMN: What's going on?

JESSIE: Forget about your curds and whey.

JAMES: We're the cream of the crop, and we're here to stay!

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

MEOWTH: Baby!

JESSIE: Bringing chaos at a breakneck pace!

JAMES: Dashing all 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, now that's a name!

JESSIE: Putting all you do-gooders in your place!

JAMES: We're Team Rocket!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: And we're in your face!

AUTUMN: Are these guys nuts?

What in the world is a Team Rocket anyway?

BROCK: Crooks that steal Pokémon, and, yes, they're nuts!

JESSIE: Looks like we've hooked a Happiny, too

JAMES: Ooh! Why that's more grist for the merchant mill.

MEOWTH: We can sell that little pill!

ASH, DAWN, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [HAPPY] / [SURPRISED]

-DAWN: What's that? -ASH: Team Rocket!

DAWN: Isn't that Brock hanging there?

ASH: Let's go!

DAWN: Yeah!

ILTA: [STRUGGLING]

MEOWTH: All that'll do is give you a milk shake!

JAMES: Besides, here's the key!

JESSIE: The key to its use is giving us some milk!

ILTA: [DEFIANT]

JESSIE: There's nothing worse than a Miltank with an attitude!

BROCK: Acting angry and upset is the worst thing you can do

to a Pokémon, you know.

AUTUMN: Right!

HAPPINY: [DETERMINED]

-JAMES: How strange! -JESSIE: The strangest.

AUTUMN: All right!

BROCK: Say, first time you stunned your opponents

and now in the field you put them to sleep!

That means Secret Power. Whoa, Happiny!

So you've learned to use Secret Power?

HAPPINY: [PROUD]

BROCK: That's awesome! Great work, Happiny! Wow!

WOBBUFFET: [ANNOYED]

JESSIE: They've bolted!!

ILTA: [EXERTION]

AUTUMN: I'm right behind you Ilta!

ILTA: [EXERTION]

BROCK: I've got to say, you two are really a team now!

AUTUMN: Thanks to you! You're right!

AUTUMN: I did it again Brock. What's wrong?

BROCK: Are you okay?

AUTUMN: I'm fine

JESSIE: What is this a stare-down contest?

MEOWTH: Go goo-goo all you want,

but we're milking that Miltank to the bank!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH, WOBBUFFET: [EXERTION]

JESSIE: Seviper, let's go!

SEVIPER: [APPEARING]

JAMES: Carnivine! You too!

JAMES: I am not a creamsicle, you know! Let go!

ASH: Hey Brock and Autumn!

DAWN: You okay?

BROCK: It's Ash and Dawn!

ASH: Turtwig! I choose you!

TURTWIG: [APPEARING]

ASH: Try Energy Ball! Focus your energy, fast!

TURTWIG: [AFFIRMATIVE] / [DETERMINED]

ASH: Hit it!

TURTWIG: [ENERGY BALL MOVE]

[SCARED]

JESSIE: A foul ball?

JAMES: Turtwig whiffed it!

ASH: Nuts! Still no good.

DAWN: Okay. Piplup?

BROCK: Hold on!

BROCK: Now a Tag Battle with Autumnand me as a team

will strengthen the bonds between her and Ilta!

-AUTUMN: Right! -JESSIE: Aim for Team Twerps!

Poison Tail! SEVIPER: [POISON TAIL MOVE]

BROCK: Happiny, use Pound!

HAPPINY: [POUND MOVE]

JAMES: Carnivine, Bite! Go!

CARNIVINE: [DETERMINED]

AUTUMN: Ilta, use Tackle!

ILTA: [EXERTION]

CARNIVINE: [SHOCKED]

CARNIVINE: [IMPACT]

AUTUMN: Wow, Ilta is actually listening to my commands!

BROCK: Great! Keep it up!

HAPPINY, SEVIPER: [EXERTION][SCARED]

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH, WOBBUFFET: [SCARED]

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH, WOBBUFFET: [GRUNT]

BROCK: May I have a turn?

-AUTUMN: Sure! -BROCK: Happiny, Pound again!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH, SEVIPER, WOBBUFFET, CARNIVINE: [IMPACT]

AUTUMN: Ilta use Rollout! ILTA: [ROLLOUT MOVE]

JAMES: One last thing...

JESSIE: Got milk?

MEOWTH: Nope, this!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: We're blasting off again!

WOBBUFFET: [EXASPERATED]

AUTUMN: Ilta, we won!

ILTA: [EXCITED]

ILTA: [SURPRISED] / [HAPPY]

AUTUMN: Ilta, may I have some milk please?

ILTA: [AFFIRMATIVE / HAPPY]

SPRING: Ilta's sure listening to Autumn. That's great!

SUMMER: Things can change after all!

AUTUMN: And it's all because of you!

AUTUMN: I don't know how to thank you Brock.

-AUTUMN: Brock? -BROCK: Don't forget,

I'm available for all kinds of consultations of course.

SPRING, SUMMER: Oh!

AUTUMN: Brock! Stop this right now!

CROAGUNK: [att*ck]

BROCK: Hey! That's Croagunk's job!

CROAGUNK: [EXASPERATED]

ASH: Well, we're gonna hit the road!

PIKACHU: [CALLING]

DAWN: Your café's great! Thank you!

SPRING: No need for thanks!

We should be thanking you for all of your help!

SUMMER: You take care!

BROCK: And you too!

AUTUMN: Excuse me!

As your student I need to tell you something!

BROCK: Autumn, you're not my student anymore.

AUTUMN: Aw, I'm not?

BROCK: But I'll give you one more lesson.

No matter how clumsy or useless we may feel,

we still reach our goals one step at a time!

BROCK: I hope you'll never forget that, okay?

AUTUMN: I won't!

ASH: You take care!

DAWN: Bye for now!

SUMMER, SPRING: You all come back anytime!

-BROCK: If you insist! -ASH: Hey, wait!

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

AUTUMN: Oh Brock. Someday, I'll be just the kind of confident,

loving Trainer you want me to be...

AUTUMN: I promise!

NARRATOR: With Brock♪ in the role of a patient

and understanding teacher,

the Mountain Hut Maid Café will be much better as a result,

while our Heroes continue toward Veilstone City,

and Ash's next sure-to-be-exciting Gym Battle!
