01x26 - Terapagos's Adventure

[bunniefuu]

My name is Liko.
I wanted to be a Pokemon Trainer,

so I started attending
Indigo Academy in the Kanto region.

There I met Sprigatito
and started my brand-new life.

That's when things took a turn.

A group of strangers showed up

and tried to steal the pendant
my grandma gave me. It was bad!

Ha-ha-ha! I found you!

In the nick of time,
Friede swooped in on Charizard

and came to my rescue.

He says my mother asked him
to come for me personally.

He's part of a crew that travels
the world,

adventuring and trying to uncover
the mysteries of Pokemon -

the Rising Volt Tacklers.

But one thing's for certain.
We're glad you're on the team.

And that's how my adventure
with Sprigatito began.

All I really want is to be
a Trainer someday.

We stopped at an island and met Roy.

He befriended Fuecoco
and joined the crew.

Yo, yo, yo,
all you Pokemon Trainers out there!

Are you feeling the Nido-hype?
Woohoo!

And I also met Nido - I mean Dot -

who streams Nidothing videos from
the ship with her friend Quaxly.

I'm happy there's another girl
my age on the crew.

During our adventures, we've come
across a few unusual Pokemon.

First, the Black Rayquaza came
out of Roy's Ancient Poke Ball.

Then we met Arboliva,
who was protecting a Pokemon forest.

And in Galar Mine,
we met Galarian Moltres.

They're three of
the Six Hero Pokemon

who travelled with
the Ancient Adventurer, Lucius.

My pendant resonated with all
these Pokemon...

..and then, right there in the mine,
the pendant did something amazing -

it took the form
of a Pokemon itself!

# When you lead with your heart

# It's so scary at the start

# But that's the hardest part

# And trust me, it gets better

# I finally know where I belong
Where I belong

# This is the way
that we grow strong

# I've got a feeling

# With you, I'm becoming me
I'm becoming me

# I'm becoming me. #

I'd like seconds, please!
Please! Comin' up!

Oh, wow, Grandma. You sure load up
during breakfast, huh?

I'll have seconds too. Fue!
Comin' up!

You have to load up.

One needs energy and strength
to go adventuring, of course!

So, eat while the eating's good!
Yeah!

Yup, that's Grandma.

She's only just met the crew
and they're already friends.

Pika!

Look at Cap and Arcanine.

Those two are getting along great.

They seem to have a natural
rapport with each other.

So, tough fighters
are quick to bond. Huh...

You know, Diana, I intend to
learn as much as I can from you

about raising Pokemon. Sure.

There's no formula here.
I just go with my gut.

I hope Terapagos makes friends
with Sprigatito

and the rest of them soon.

Huh?

Wargh! Liko? What's wrong?

Terapagos is gone!

DELIGHTED SQUEALING

PAWNI WHINES NERVOUSLY

TREMBLING

Tera! WARGH!

Huh?

Tera?

Not here!

Not here! Chansey.

Not here! Not here!

And not here...

I wonder where it went. Fue.

You don't think it went outside,
do you?

Well, we are on a flying ship,
so it's got to be here.

You're probably right,
but I'm still so worried.

CLATTERING NEARBY
Huh?

DISTRESSED CRIES

Ah!

Oh, no!
It's stuck! It can't get up!

HAPPILY: Tera!

Seems like it just wanted
some berries. Come to think of it,

it didn't really eat any of
its Pokemon food, did it?

Maybe it doesn't like it.

Could be.

I really don't know anything
about this Pokemon.

I need to observe it more!

Hmph!

Oh! Pika!

Pika... Ha-ha-ha!

Almost nothing seems to faze it.

Its attitude is so cheerful.

SQUEALING HAPPILY

Ha-ha-ha! Do you like it?

Alcremie! Ro-o-ckruff!

Surprisingly,
it has a real sweet tooth.

No matter where it goes,
it never seems to get bored.

And its sparkly eyes
are just the cutest!

Must be tough
trying to keep up with it. Yeah.

But when I see how much fun
Terapagos is having,

I just want to keep observing it!

Oh. Not again.

Tera!

Hey, all you Pokemon Trainers!

I'm Nidothing,
back with an all-new video!

You know, Pokemon battles
aren't only one-on-one.

You can have two-on-two,
or even Tag Battles

where a whole bunch of Trainers
get in on the action!

Huh?

Cut! Cut! Liko!
Huh? That's Dot.

Did it just go into...?

Huh?

Argh! It's Nidothing!

Quaxly!

Sorry about that.

It must have interrupted your video.

It's just really curious
about everything around here.

So it was in hibernation for,
like, decades, right? So then...

..the ship's probably full of things
it's never seen before.

Oh, yeah.
I hadn't thought of that.

It only just woke up.

Maybe it didn't eat
the Pokemon food cos...

..it didn't realise that
it even was food to begin with.

Waking up to a brand-new world...

It must be hard trying to adjust
to the world as it is today.

That means I have to teach it
what I know about almost everything.

Liko? Hmm?

Well, I have wanted to learn
more about it anyway...

Again?!

Honestly, it's like
it's always vanishing!

Spri!

Sprigatito - big problem.

Terapagos has gone missing again.

Do you know where it is?
I need to find it.

Please, Sprigatito,
help me look for it?

Hmph! Huh?

Sprigatito?

It's in a bit of mood...

But first, I have to
go find Terapagos!

Huh?

Enna-nenna-nenna...

Hatenna-na-na! Hatenna!

Hatenna, wait a sec!

SNORING

BEEP

Hat-Hat-Hatenna!

What's wrong, Hatenna? You OK?

Huh?

Terapagos!

How'd you get all the way up there?

Stop! Turn around!

Pagos!

Oh...

Te-e-e-ra!

Tenna-a-a-a!

Hatenna! Oh, no!

Return, now.

I see... Hatenna must
have been feeling

the same thing Terapagos is feeling.

Tera! Tera!

It seems like it's calling
to someone.

Terapagos!

I got to call Friede now.

SOFT THUMP

THUMP

Huh?

Sprigatito?

What's wrong? Something happen?

GASPS

Liko!

Terapagos!

Pagos?

You're going to be OK.
I've got you now.

Arc! Liko!

Thank goodness you're safe.

I'm so sorry I did something
so risky.

It's good thing Sprigatito
alerted me to the situation.

Oh, really? Thanks, Sprigatito!

I think Sprigatito might be
a little ticked off at me

for taking so many chances lately.

But you take those chances
because you love Pokemon, yes?

I believe that's what they call
courage.

And what woke our friend up...
I'm certain it was you.

When I wore that pendant,
all it did was hang around my neck.

Grandma, I...

It seems my adventures
were meant to lead you

to take that brave first step.

And now I'm sure you'll end up going
much farther than I ever could.

You know, Grandma, all this time,

I've been thinking
about everything you said.

I'm so happy to hear you say that.

If that's what you believe, then you
must seek out the Six Heroes, Liko.

So what's going to happen, Grandma,
if I do find the Six Heroes?

I think you're ready for me
to show you this.

Lucius's notebook.

You'll find all the Pokemon
he met during his travels

written about in these pages.

Isn't that...? Terapagos.

And it seems Lucius
formed a close bond with it.

Pa? Oh.

But it's so... Yes.

It could simply be it doesn't have
enough energy for that yet.

I just remembered - when we met
Arboliva and Galarian Moltres,

this weird light glowed around us
and I saw a man in there.

What did you say?

Could it possibly have been
the man in this photograph here?

Yes! That's him!

Well, that makes sense.

You see, when it resonated
with Arboliva,

Terapagos recalled
one of its memories,

which is how it returned
to Pokemon form.

If you meet the rest
of the Six Heroes,

you might be able to
restore its rightful power.

I see. And what happens then?

At that time, the path
to Laqua may open up to you.

Tera!

Just as if Lucius of old
were guiding you himself.

Tera! Terapagos?

What's wrong with it?

It always reacts like this
when you say Lucius or Laqua.

Tera-a-a-a!

Grandma, wait!

Do you think Terapagos heard
Lucius's name and misses him?

And you're saying that's why
it's crying out?

Maybe it's thinking
if it can go to Laqua,

then it could be with Lucius again.

Unfortunately,

he never wrote down Laqua's
exact location in this notebook.

And Lucius lived a century ago.

No matter how much
it wants to see him...

Yeah, but still...

Wherever it wants to go,
I want to help it get there.

Liko... Even if it never
gets to meet Lucius,

maybe he left
something behind there,

in Laqua, the place he was
always searching for.

I want to take this Pokemon there!

Tera!

It'll be a steep path to climb,
but absolutely! If there is a...

If there's a Pokemon by my side,
I'll be just fine.

This belt I'm wearing
belonged to Lucius.

It can hold all six Poke ba*ls
for the Six Heroes.

It's only appropriate
that you wear it now.

Consider it carrying on my legacy.

Wow, Lucius really wore this.

Pagos!

Liko, do you understand yet why
those Pokemon appeared before you?

Huh?

You truly empathise with
the Pokemons' feelings.

When you met your partner,
you took that first step forward.

A talent bloomed in you
at the perfect time!

My partner?

Sprigatito!

Grandma,
please look after Terapagos.

There you are!

Even when we're apart, feels like
I always know where to find you.

I'm so sorry, Sprigatito.

You always make sure you keep
an eye on me,

but then, there I went yet again.

I just realised the one
who encouraged me

to take those first steps
on my path was you the entire time.

Words may not fully
get this across, but...

..Sprigatito,
I want you by my side for ever.

Sprigatito!

Ugh!

Pokemon are exciting,
wonderful creatures.

Even if you can't talk to them,

your feelings do get
through to them.

Thanks, Grandma.

Here.

Hey, there.

Pagos!

Whether we're happy, mad, grieving,
or just having fun,

we can stay friends with Pokemon,

because whatever you're feeling,
they'll understand.

I'll try persuading the crew
to go to Laqua.

It's the start of another great
adventure! Go give it a try.

I will.

Sprigatito!

FRIEDE: Interesting. Huh. Wouldn't
have thought this little one

would want to go to Laqua so badly.

I wonder what kind of place it is.

It sounds like a place

where we'd have an amazing
experience, for sure.

It's like a paradise, right?

A paradise! Oh, yeah...

I bet there are berries
are all over the place there!

Fuecoco...

That's right. I'd like to go there
and bring this Pokemon with me.

And to do that, I learned I have
to meet the rest of the Six Heroes.

I know it'll be incredibly hard.

I also know I'm not quite strong
enough for the task yet.

Which is why...

Um... I have to ask you all now...

..could you please help me do this?

I, uh...

Was it ever a question?

We're all in this together.

And when one of us has their heart
set on doing something,

we're there to back 'em up,
aren't we?

Cos that's what we're all about.
Pika!

Yeah!

Thanks, guys!

Not only that - ever since
Diana first mentioned his name,

I've been wanting to learn
as much as I can about Lucius.

What are those?!

The four remaining Heroes.

Lapras.

Kleavor.

Entei.

And the black Rayquaza.

They all seem so strong! Man!

I'm pretty sure that Entei
is a legendary Pokemon.

They say it's always travelling
all over the place at high speed,

so good luck. You're right.

Our chances of coming across it
are about zero.

Wait a second -
what about that Kleavor?

All I know so far is that it was
once in a region called Hisui.

Nowadays it's nearly
impossible to see one.

Then how are we supposed to know
where to look for it?

I really don't know.

All that's left is Lapras

and we'll have to find clues
as to its whereabouts.

Come on! Let's start the search
with the black Rayquaza!

Listen, you - for that,
we'd need to have a plan

to figure out the order
we were going to...

I have good news for Roy. Dot!

I'm picking up a bunch
of black Rayquaza sightings

from all over the place
in the Galar region.

I'd say the chances are pretty good
that it's still here.

Quaxly!

Then maybe we can still
catch up with it.

This gets you fired up,
huh, Fuecoco?

Fue!

You got to put plans into action
to make 'em work.

Am I right, Cap?

Pika! All right. Let's do this!

Come on! Join together,
Rising Volt Tacklers!

We'll find the black Rayquaza.
Let's...

ALL: Go!

This is the exact wrong time
to bug him, huh?

I have no clue as to
what he's thinking, honestly.

Whatever it is, we follow Master
Amethio wherever he goes. Yeah.

Ceruledge...

We'll sort this.
