01x37 - Fuecoco... Becomes a Crook?!

[bunniefuu]

My name is Liko.

And there's so much I have to learn.

About Pokémon. About myself.

The good luck pendant my grandma gave me

turned out to be a mysterious Pokémon
called Terapagos.

And it wants more than anything to reach
a legendary paradise known as Laqua.

But to do that, we need to find
all the Pokémon known as the Six Heroes,

and help Terapagos regain
the powers it once had.

We've already found three
of the Six Heroes.

That leaves three more to find.

And so the Rising Volt Tacklers

have charted a course
for the Paldea region.

A job?

That's right. We just had an offer come in
from an archeologist that I know.

Great. What's the job?
- They're excavating some ruins.

There's big rocks where they're trying
to dig. They want us to move them.

Big rocks?
- Are we transporting them very far?

Negative. They just want us
to get them out of the way.

So we're hauling rocks.

It sounds like an easy enough job,
but it can't pay that much.

This is what they're offering.

Wait, seriously?

For moving some rocks?

So, what do we say?
- Pika!

Who would turn down a gig
with a work-to-pay ratio like that?

We got a new job! Nice!

Fueco!

And so we're off
to an archeological dig site

to transport some rocks.

The sun is so intense
out here in the desert.

But Terapagos seems to enjoy it.

It's just basking in the sun.

And Roy, being Roy...

Look! Rayquaza has appeared!

Fueco!

Watch out! Rayquaza's about to attack!

Fueco!

Rayquaza Rock!
- Fueco! Fueco!

Fuecoco! Battle Rayquaza
using your awesome new move!

Fuecoco! [shouts] Go!

Fuecoco!

Are you all right, pal?
- Fuecoco!

Guess I should've known it wasn't
gonna be that easy to learn a new move.

But still, if we get into a battle
with Rayquaza as we are now,

we'll never win.

So we just gotta keep training,
then train some more.

Fuecoco!
- Snorunt, Snorunt!

Nice. Juice from Shuckle.

Thanks, Snorunt.

This is gonna be good.
- Snorunt, Snorunt!

Mm! Berry Juice cooled to
a refreshing chill. Just what I needed.

Thanks, Shuckle. You're the best.

Shuckle...

Thanks for that, Liko.

No problem. Uh, Roy?

Are you mad?

Mad? No, why?

So the glare was in your eyes, huh?

Your brow was all furrowed and stuff,

so I thought maybe
you were in a bad mood or something.

The sunlight out here will do that to you.

That's why a good pair of sunglasses
is a must. Here, check it.

Oh!

Check me out!

I'm pretty cool, right?

Mm-hm...

Liko.
- Huh?

I don't know why, but it doesn't seem
all that glaring to me.

Fuecoco?

Do you wanna try the sunglasses on?

Fuecoco!

Fueco!

Looking good.
- Fueco!

We're awesome.

Yeah!
- Fueco!

We're on the verge of your new move,
I just know it!

Fuecoco!

So, uh, are we gonna move
that rock or what?

The work at the site doesn't seem
to be moving forward very quickly.

But they said they'd call the moment
the rocks are ready to be hauled away.

Aren't there jobs where we can get paid
without working in the heat?

Huh?

Sounds like the heavy equipment.
Must mean they're starting the work.

Finally, let's move some rocks!

Huh?

They're coming back!
- Let's get outta here!

That sounds less than ideal.
- I'll go down and check it out.

Come on, Cap.

Hmm? Oh, hey there, Friede.

How are you? Wanted to see
how things were going down here.

Hmm...
- Hmm?

Pika...

Are these the rocks
you want us to move?

Indeed.
We were making preparations,

but some rather violent Pokémon
kept interfering with our work.

Did you say violent Pokémon?

Yes.

Pokémon did that?

That's right.

We were able to identify
Krookodile and Krokorok.

As of now,
no one's been hurt, thank goodness.

But we can't get any work done
with them interfering.

If they come back around,

well, I'm afraid
we're going to have to deal with them.

And then we'll repair the heavy
equipment and get back to work.

My apologies,
but you'll have to wait until then.

Deal with them? That's harsh.

I mean, it's a fact
the dig keeps coming under attack.

But either way, I'm gonna go
and investigate the ruins

and see if I can find out what's going on.

I wanna come!
- Me too!

Sorry, g*ng.

It's a Krookodile,
so better if just Cap and I go.

But we wanna help, and ruins sound cool.

We won't do anything dangerous.
- Come on! Please?

Please, Cap?

Pika...

No going off
on your own, you promise?

Yep!

Oh...

Awesome.

Let's look for signs
of Krookodile and Krokorok.

Okay!

Pika?

Where you going, Cap?

Fueco!

Fueco...

Fueco?

Fueco!

Fuecoco?

Fueco...

Fueco!

Fueco!

Fueco...

Fueco!

Fueco!

Fuecoco?

Fueco!
- Are you okay, buddy?

Hey, is that...?

Sandile. The Desert Croc Pokémon.

A Ground and Dark type.

It travels through the sand
like it's swimming.

It can evolve into Krokorok,
and later into Krookodile.

Is this what we're looking for?

This Pokémon is messing with the crew?

Fueco!
- Fuecoco!

Fuecoco!

Fueco...

It dove into the sand.

Come on, we gotta tell Friede
about this. Huh?

What's going on?

Fuecoco!

These are Krookodile,
Krokorok, and Sandile footprints.

And there's a lot of them.

So then it's a bunch of Pokémon?
- Yeah.

Wanna hear my theory?

They've got a nest
somewhere here in the ruins.

Liko, Roy,
make sure we don't get separated, okay?

Mm-hm...

Roy!
- Roy?

Pika...

Krooko... Krookodile... Krooko!

What is that?

Krooko! Krookodile!

Fueco--

It's Krookodile and Krokorok.

Krooko, Krooko, Krookodile!

Krookodile...
- Sandile...

Sandile, Sandile, Sandile...

Whoa! It's a bunch
of newly hatched Sandile.

Fuecoco...

Sandile! Sandile!

Krooko!

Is it just me, or do
they seem like a mother and father?

Fueco...

The one we saw
came from here too, huh?

Krookodile...

Fueco!

Hey, this rhythm sounds kind of familiar.
- Fueco...

Yeah, that's it.

Fuecoco, do you recognize it?
- Fueco!

Then let's go!
- Fuecoco!

Krooko!

You want us to follow you?

What was that move just now?

That was Round.

Friede!
- Pretty impressive, Roy,

making friends with Krookodile
and the other crocs.

Wasn't me. It was all
because of Fuecoco's great song.

Fueco?

Listen, Friede.
- Huh?

While they were singing
with us just now,

I could tell they were having fun.

I don't-- It's just that--

I just don't think that
these are mean Pokémon.

Hmm...

Krooko?
- What is that?

They've started work
on the excavation again.

It's making the ruins rumble.
That sound is so loud.

They want the booming
and the rumbling to stop.

I can't imagine
they're setting out to hurt anybody.

Yeah. You're probably right.

But the archeologists think
their only option was to deal with them.

Oh, no.

Roy!
- We have to stop them!

Fuecoco!

Come on, let's go.
- Yeah.

Luxray...

Luxray!

Those croc Pokémon are back
to make another mess of things.

I suppose we have no choice.

You know what to do.

On it.

Krookodile!

Fueco!

Krookodile!

Minccino, use Dazzling Gleam now.

Minccino!

Krokorok!

Diggersby, go. Use Hammer Arm.
- Diggersby!

Stop it. They're not trying
to cause any trouble.

Fuecoco!

Krooko!

Krookodile!

Krooko...

Krookodile!

Minccino!
- Diggersby!

Krookodile! Krokorok! No, don't do this!

They're so angry.

I don't think words
are gonna reach them right now.

Fuecoco, try to stop them using Tackle.
- Fueco!

Fuecoco!

Fueco! Fueco...

Hey! You okay?

Fueco!

What are we gonna do?
We have to calm them down.

Fueco...

Fueco!
- Fuecoco!

Fueco...

Fueco...

♪ Fueco, Fuecoco ♪

Fuecoco.

Roy.
- Liko. Hey there, you two.

♪ Fueco, Fuecoco... ♪

Krookodile!

Fuecoco's trying, but it's not working.

Come on, Fuecoco. You can do it!

Fueco... Fueco...

Fuecoco!

Krook?
- Krook...

Fuecoco...

Fueco! Fuecoco!

Krook...

Krookodile!

Well, it looks like
they finally calmed down.

Pika...
- That's such a relief.

Fuecoco, could that have been a...?

That was Disarming Voice.

Disarming Voice?

You're so awesome, Fuecoco.
You learned a brand-new move.

Fuecoco! Fuecoco!

Pika...

Fuecoco was pretty amazing, huh?

Is that so?

The heavy machinery noise,

it reverberates all the way down
to their nest within the ruins?

In that case,
we'll try to come up with something.

That'd be great.
- That being said,

this does mean it'll be a bit longer

before we're ready for you
to transport the rocks.

Roger that.

We'd like them cleared
as soon as possible.

We have to...
- Move these rocks?

Otherwise, it'll be longer
before our excavation shows results.

I know!

You were taking forever,
so we came to check up on things.

What have you gotten yourselves into?

Krookodile!

Krook! Krookodile!

Oh, yeah.
- That was most impressive.

With the help of these Pokémon,

we don't even need your ship
to transport the rocks.

Hmm? You won't need, uh...?

In other words...
- Our sweet, sweet reward money...

Just went down the drain.

Well, we didn't get any reward money,

but Roy and Fuecoco had a great adventure.

See you later, Krokorok.

You too, Sandile. In a while, Krookodile.

Fuecoco, Fuecoco!

Fuecoco!

And everyone at the site
came to an agreement.

When the Sandile are taking their naps,
the excavation crew will take their break.

And so the Rising Volt Tacklers'
adventure continues.
