Post by bunniefuu »

DAWN: Piplup, I say we get in a little training

and start out with Whirlpool.

PIPLUP: [WHIRLPOOL MOVE]

DAWN: Piplup, wow, that was greater than great!

PIPLUP: [PROUD]

NARRATOR: Dawn and Ash are finding the forest

a perfect place for some valuable training.

NARRATOR: As Ash prepares for his upcoming Gym battle

against Volkner,

Dawn prepares for the Grand Festival,

as Brock keeps a watchful eye on both.

BROCK: That hard work's building an appetite.

I think some chilled berries as part of a tasty dessert

are sure to hit the spot for those Pokémon!

BROCK: A boat?

BROCK: Hello? Excuse me!

BROCK: Miss, you've got to wake up! Come on!

ASH, DAWN, PIKACHU: [SURPRISED]

BROCK: You're in a lot of trouble!

BROCK: Wake up! BROCK: It's not working!

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!

BROCK: Hey, there's a rope!

BROCK: Quick, Happiny!

HAPPINY: [APPEARING]

BROCK: Happiny, pull the rope!

HAPPINY: [HAPPY]

HAPPINY: [EXERTION]

BROCK: Man, that hurt.

Just in time. Thanks, Happiny!

HAPPINY: [PLEASED]

- DAWN: Hey, Brock! - ASH: Are you okay?

BROCK: I guess I'm all right.

BROCK: Don't worry about me! Look at her!

PIKACHU: [CURIOUS] PIPLUP: [CONCERNED]

ASH: Wonder who she is.

DAWN: Is she real?

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [STARTLED]

MARLEY: So where's my basket?

BROCK: Don't worry, it's right there!

MARLEY: Thank goodness. So why are you all wet?

ASH: You were about to go over a waterfall!

DAWN: So Brock's wet because

he jumped into the river to save you!

MARLEY: Oh. Then that means your name is Brock?

ASH: Name? Wait a sec!

DAWN: I would think you should at least thank him!

BROCK: It's fine! I'm just glad that you're all right!

MARLEY: My name is Marley. Who are you?

ASH: Uh, hi. My name's Ash, and this is Pikachu.

PIKACHU: [GREETING]

DAWN: I'm Dawn, and this is Piplup.

PIPLUP: [GREETING]

BROCK: Why were you sleeping in a boat?

MARLEY: I was hiding and must have fallen asleep by accident.

ASH: You were hiding?

DAWN: Hiding from what?

MARLEY: There is a group of very bad people after me.

ASH, DAWN, PIPLUP, PIKACHU: [ALARMED]

MARLEY: You'll protect me, won't you please, Brock?

- BROCK: Protect you? - MARLEY: Protect me, yes.

I have to travel to the other side of that mountain.

MARLEY: You'll take me, won't you?

ASH: What are you talking about?

DAWN: You can't expect us just to say yes.

MARLEY: Excuse me, I'm not asking you two.

ASH: What was that?!

MARLEY: Please, Brock, let's go.

ASH: What's there to think about, Brock?

DAWN: She'll be fine if she goes there by herself.

BROCK: But if Marley's being chased by bad people,

and we were planning to go over that mountain anyway,

then why not help her, too?

MARLEY: Then it's settled.

DAWN: There she goes again.

BROCK: I agree. Let's go together!

MARLEY: Good.

ASH, DAWN, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [UNCOMFORTABLE]

BROCK: So where are you headed after you cross that mountain?

MARLEY: To a very secret garden.

ASH: Secret garden? What's that?

MARLEY: I can't say any more than that.

ASH: Oh, man.

DAWN: Why are all these bad people after you?

MARLEY: It's because I'm an alien.

DAWN: An alien?

- ASH: You're kidding, right? - MARLEY: I'm kidding.

PIKACHU: [EXASPERATED] ASH: Come on!

PIPLUP: [COMPLAINING]

DAWN: Piplup, I'm thinking you're hungry!

PIPLUP: [AGREEMENT] PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

ASH: You too, huh, Pikachu?

PIKACHU: [PLEASED]

BROCK: I have some Pokémon food I made earlier.

MARLEY: Please, Brock, I am in a rush.

BROCK: Now just a sec. It won't take long!

PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

MARLEY: I'm going for a walk.

BROCK: Don't walk too far, okay?

MARLEY: You can come out now.

SHAYMIN: [WEAK]

MARLEY: You have got to be starving.

It's Pokémon food. Eat it!

SHAYMIN: [SAD]

MARLEY: But you've got to eat! You haven't had a thing all day.

SHAYMIN: [WEAK]

ASH: She's been gone a while.

DAWN: Wonder what she's up to.

BROCK: Let's go look!

SHAYMIN: [SAD]

MARLEY: Shaymin, hey, what's wrong?

BROCK: Marley!

DAWN, BROCK, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [SHOCKED]

ASH: Hey, it's a Shaymin!

POKEDEX: Shaymin. The Gratitude Pokémon.

When the Gracidea flower is in bloom,

its pollen allows Shaymin to change into its Sky Forme

from its Land Forme.

Shaymin also have a tendency to migrate.

BROCK: That Shaymin looks awfully weak to me.

MARLEY: It's been like this since this morning.

BROCK: Why didn't you tell me sooner? Let me see!

MARLEY: What's wrong?

PIKACHU: [CONCERNED] PIPLUP: [CONCERNED]

SHAYMIN: [COUGHING]

BROCK: Okay.

It appears to have been exposed to poison of some kind!

- MARLEY: Poison? - BROCK: That's right.

There's a move called Seed Flare that Shaymin can use,

which will take polluted air and then purify it.

I think some of that poison could still be in its body.

MARLEY: Now that I think about it,

Shaymin absorbed a Seviper's Haze this morning.

But what can we do?

BROCK: I'll use a Pecha Berry.

BROCK: This will rid Shaymin of any lingering toxins!

BROCK: Here, eat this!

SHAYMIN: [CONTENT]

SHAYMIN: [COUGHING]

ASH, DAWN: [STARTLED]

BROCK: That's it! Now we'll use a Sitrus Berry!

It'll help you get your strength back!

SHAYMIN: [CONTENT]

SHAYMIN: [ENERGETIC]

- MARLEY: Wow, Shaymin! - ASH: Awesome!

DAWN: Shaymin looks so much better!

BROCK: That's a relief.

MARLEY: You know, Brock,

it's almost like you're Nurse Joy!

ASH: Well, that's because Brock wants to become

the world's greatest Pokémon breeder!

DAWN: But you're keeping Shaymin inside of a picnic basket. Why?

MARLEY: Sadly, I have to keep it hidden,

since the bad people are all after Shaymin.

JESSIE: All the people in the world,

and she had to get tight with the Twerps!

MEOWTH: Dealing with those dopes

definitely drags down our stealing style!

JAMES: Team Rocket never gives up or in!

No witless Twerp can come between our Shaymin and us!

JESSIE: After the all-nighter we just pulled,

no doubt we've earned it.

MEOWTH: Oh yeah,

and this all-nighter was a no-sleep safari.

MEOWTH: Check out the walking shock of greenery.

MEOWTH: What do you know? That green shock's a Shaymin!

SHAYMIN: [ALERT]

JAMES: Shaymin ranks high as a really rare primo Pokémon!

JESSIE: Which ranks really high as a primo gift for the Boss!

MEOWTH: Of course!

MEOWTH, JESSIE, JAMES: Yoohoo!

SHAYMIN: [SCARED]

MARLEY: Who are you?

JESSIE: A bad dream! Yanmega, use Sonic Boom!

YANMEGA: [SONIC BOOM MOVE]

MARLEY, SHAYMIN: [SCARED]

MARLEY: Are you all right?

SHAYMIN: [REASSURING]

JESSIE: We've earned that Shaymin, so hands off!

JAMES: It's finders keepers and losers losers.

MARLEY: This Shaymin doesn't want to go with you.

MEOWTH: Your ribbon's on too tight!

MARLEY: Who are you, anyway?

JESSIE: The best! The crème de la crème!

JAMES: We're the best, while they're just them!

JESSIE: On the wind!

JAMES: Past the stars!

MEOWTH: I'm such a gem!

JAMES: Vanishment!

JESSIE: Well, not for long!

MARLEY: They're such bores!

JESSIE: You've got the annoying traits of a Twerp!

JAMES: Unacceptable!

MARLEY: Arcanine!

ARCANINE: [APPEARING]

MARLEY: Use Flamethrower!

ARCANINE: [FLAMETHROWER MOVE]

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

JAMES: There isn't a blastoff big enough

to banish Team Rocket.

MEOWTH: There's a new and improved team

sitting in our back pocket!

JESSIE: And stealing Shaymin's the first thing on the docket!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

ASH: I get it. That's what happened.

DAWN: So Shaymin's been with you ever since?

MARLEY: That's right.

I tried once to say goodbye, but, well...

MARLEY: I know you go on a flower-bearing journey,

isn't that right, Shaymin?

If I remember correctly,

the Gracidea flower garden is just past that mountain.

SHAYMIN: [CURIOUS]

MARLEY: Yes, the flowers are all in bloom right now,

so you better hurry.

MARLEY: You should go. Or you won't make it in time.

SHAYMIN: [SAD]

MARLEY: Later that night, I was having trouble falling asleep.

MARLEY: Shaymin!

SHAYMIN: [GREETING]

SHAYMIN: [HAPPY]

MARLEY: All right, you win.

We'll go to the Gracidea flower garden together, then.

SHAYMIN: [PLEASED]

MARLEY: Wow Shaymin, you're so warm and cozy!

SHAYMIN: [CONTENT]

MARLEY: And then, this morning...

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Ta-da!

MARLEY: Not you three again.

JAMES: We've been foraging the forest for you

all the livelong night!

MEOWTH: Hand over Shaymin, and we won't bite!

MARLEY: I won't! Arcanine.

JESSIE: You lose!Seviper, use Haze, and make it hazy!

SEVIPER: [HAZE MOVE]

MARLEY, SHAYMIN: [STRUGGLING]

-JAMES: Thank you! - MARLEY: No, Shaymin!

SHAYMIN: [SEED FLARE MOVE]

MEOWTH: Hey, Shaymin's using Seed Flare!

Beware!

MARLEY: Shaymin!

MARLEY: Arcanine, let's go!

ARCANINE: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: No!

JAMES: Show yourself!

JAMES: Not a trace!

MEOWTH: She's gotta be in the forest!

- JESSIE: To the forest! - JAMES: The forest?

JESSIE: The forest!

DAWN: Well, it all makes sense now.

ASH: But you don't have to worry about a thing anymore,

'cause you're with all of us!

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT] PIPLUP: [AGREEMENT]

MARLEY: The Gracidea flower garden

should be just beyond this tunnel.

SHAYMIN: [EXCITED] BROCK: Then let's go!

JAMES: They're headed to the Gracidea flower garden,

as we thought!

JESSIE: And, surprise! We'll be there.

MEOWTH: When those dumb dopes get a load

of the robot waiting for them, it'll knock that ribbon

right off of that sleepy Twerpette's noggin!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

SHAYMIN: [EXCITED]

SHROOMISH: [POISON POWDER MOVE]

PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [SCARED]

BROCK: That Shroomish is using Poison Powder!

SHAYMIN: [SEED FLARE MOVE]

BROCK: Shaymin's Seed Flare is purifying the poison in the air!

SHROOMISH: [STARTLED]

MARLEY: Shaymin!

ASH, DAWN: Pikachu! Piplup!

PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [PAINED]

DAWN: They're still feeling the Poison Powder!

ASH: Hang in there, Pikachu!

SHAYMIN: [CONCERNED] / [AROMATHERAPY MOVE]

BROCK: It's Shaymin's Aromatherapy!

PIPLUP, PIKACHU: [SURPRISED]

ASH: No more poison!

DAWN: Thank you, Shaymin!

ASH: Yeah, thanks a lot, Shaymin!

PIPLUP, PIKACHU: [GRATEFUL]

SHAYMIN: [PLEASED] MARLEY: Look up there!

We're almost at the end of the tunnel!

MARLEY: After we get out,

there should be a vast Gracidea flower garden...

ASH, PIKACHU, DAWN, PIPLUP, BROCK, MARLEY: [SHOCKED]

MARLEY: It can't be!

BROCK: The blooming season must be over already!

ASH: Hold on!

ASH: We might be able to find a flower

that's still blooming if we look!

PIKACHU: [ENTHUSIASTIC]

DAWN: I think we should all split up and do just that!

PIPLUP: [ENTHUSIASTIC]

ASH: There's got to be a blooming flower.

DAWN: All we need is to find just one.

BROCK: Then Shaymin can use it to transform into its Sky Forme!

MARLEY: Then on to its flower-bearing journey!

PIKACHU: [CURIOUS] PIPLUP: [DISAPPOINTED]

SHAYMIN: [DISAPPOINTED]

BROCK: Up there!

DAWN: You found it!

ASH: Way to go, Brock!

MARLEY: Shaymin, there's still some left.

SHAYMIN: [EXCITED]

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Excellent work on our behalf!

ASH: It's Team Rocket!

MARLEY: No, not them again!

DAWN: I should've known it was you three

after Marley and Shaymin!

BROCK: I'll say this... you're persistent!

JAMES: Like night follows day!

JESSIE: We have to be,

in order to keep up with your persistently dimwitted

- Twerpish shenanigans! - MEOWTH: So now,

let's catch that Shaymin with a String sh*t spectacle!

ASH: Pikachu, use Thunderbolt and stop Team Rocket, now!

DAWN: Piplup, use Bubble Beam!

PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [att*ck]

ASH: Torterra, use Energy Ball!

TORTERRA: [ENERGY BALL MOVE]

JESSIE: Bah! We hit the ground running!

JAMES: Or crawling, as the case may be!

MEOWTH: Meta-Caterpie rocks like me!

BROCK: Hey, Dawn, how about using Ice Beam right under them?

DAWN: Great idea!

All right, Buneary, use Ice Beam!

BUNEARY: [ICE BEAM MOVE]

ASH: Your turn, Torterra, use Rock Climb!

DAWN: Piplup, use Whirlpool!

TORTERRA: [ROCK CLIMB MOVE]

PIPLUP: [WHIRLPOOL MOVE]

ASH: We did it!

TORTERRA: [PROUD]

JAMES: They did it all right.

JESSIE: Show them what they've won, Meowth.

MEOWTH: You've won a form change!

JAMES: It's our blockbuster Butterfree!

JESSIE: Since it's not really an Evolution,

we've saved Maxi-Metapod for later!

MEOWTH: So try our Robo-Hyper Solar Beam on for size!

MARLEY: Shaymin, where are you?

- BROCK: Marley! - MARLEY: Huh?

BROCK: Shaymin's up over there!

ASH: All right, Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!

DAWN: And Piplup, you use Bubble Beam!

PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [att*ck]

ASH: They missed!

JAMES: We win!

JESSIE: From way up here, those Twerps really do look like

the micro-mini-minds they truly are!

JAMES: Before we steal away with Shaymin,

what say we give the Twerps a blastoff payback?

MEOWTH: Robo-Hyper Solar Beam, dig it, Jack!

PIKACHU: [WORRIED]

MARLEY: Shaymin, you can do it!

SHAYMIN: [FOCUSED]

BROCK: It looks like Shaymin's Forme change has begun!

SHAYMIN: [EXCITED]

BROCK: It's Shaymin's Sky Forme!

SHAYMIN: [EXERTION]

MARLEY: Shaymin!

SHAYMIN: [EXERTION]

SHAYMIN: [att*ck] ASH: Shaymin, yeah!

DAWN: Awesome! PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [IMPRESSED]

JAMES: That's Shaymin's Sky Forme, and I'm fuming!

MEOWTH: The idea of sacking us

while we're gassing up is just plain ruder than rude!

JESSIE: Everything Shaymin does is as predictable

as Twerps being stuck on stupid, so catch it!

MEOWTH: Right! Piece of cake!

SHAYMIN: [EXERTION]

- BROCK: Nice sh*t! - MARLEY: Please, keep it up.

JESSIE: Meowth, time for our new move!

MEOWTH: One Robo-Hyper Gust, what a groove!

SHAYMIN: [STRUGGLING]

MARLEY: Shaymin!

BROCK: The flower!

MEOWTH: Game's over, palley!

SHAYMIN: [FOCUSED]

BROCK: Shaymin's using Air Slash!

SHAYMIN: [AIR SLASH MOVE]

JESSIE: Slice and dice!

JAMES: To be halved on the brink of success.

MEOWTH: That would have been my guess.

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

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

SHAYMIN: [PAINED]

BROCK: No!

Shaymin's getting weak lying on top of all that cold ice!

ASH, DAWN, BROCK, MARLEY, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [SHOCKED]

SHAYMIN: [WEAK]

ASH: Shaymin's back into its Land Forme!

MARLEY: What do we do?

Team Rocket blew away the last Gracidea bloom.

SHAYMIN X : [CALLING]

SHAYMIN X : [GREETING] SHAYMIN: [EXCITED]

ASH: Wow, you've got friends here waiting for you!

SHAYMIN: [EXCITED]

SHAYMIN: [PROUD]

SHAYMIN X : [PLAYFUL]

ASH, DAWN, BROCK, MARLEY, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

MARLEY: Shaymin, the time for you to go

on your flower-bearing journey is now!

SHAYMIN: [CURIOUS]

MARLEY: By nightfall,

you'll transform back into your Land Forme,

so you need to find a different flower garden

before that happens!

SHAYMIN: [WISTFUL]

MARLEY: And maybe we'll get to meet each other again someday.

So until then, it's time to say goodbye.

SHAYMIN: [RELUCTANT]

SHAYMIN: [DETERMINED]

ASH: See ya later! Bye, Shaymin!

DAWN: Take care, Shaymin!

BROCK: Make sure you make a beautiful flower garden,

Shaymin! Bye!

MARLEY: I just heard Shaymin's voice speaking to me.

MARLEY: Wow. It said, "Thank you."

NARRATOR: Shaymin is gratefully off

on its flower-bearing journey, thanks to our heroes!

NARRATOR: And with another rare and wondrous Pokémon

as a new friend,

our heroes' own journey continues!
