14x32 - Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!

[bunniefuu]

(Iris) Wow, it's beautiful!

- Yeah. - Yeah.

Pika-a-a!

A perfect spot for lunch.

- Wanna play until then? - Axew.

- Hmm. - Mm?

[instrumental music]

See for yourself.

- What? - Pika.

- Let me see. - Ew.

- Uh? - Oshawott's eyes are closed!

- No way! - Pika!

I'm amazed Oshawott could pull it off at all.

That makes Oshawott special in a certain way.

Mm. Oshawott and I are gonna do some special trainin'.

Okay. So, why don't you let your other Pokemon out?

I'll watch them for you.

Thanks. That's great.

Watch mine too, please?

- 'Everybody, come on out!' - 'Everybody, come on out!'

[cheering]

- Sni. - Emo.

[scoffing]

Okay, Oshawott! How about some special trainin'?

Osha?

(Ash) "Facing Fear With Eyes Wide Open!"

(narrator) A break for lunch beside a beautiful lake

provides Ash with the opportunity

for some special training with Oshawott

concentrating on a recently discovered battling challenge.

- Ready to go? - Osha.

Today, we're gonna do our special trainin' in the water.

Osha. Oshawott.

[splashing]

Oshawott, you're an awesome swimmer, no doubt.

But there's a reason your Aqua Jet misses.

You keep closing your eyes underwater.

And that's what we're gonna work on, okay?

Osha.

I'll be holding on the whole time, so don't worry.

Just relax and slowly put your face in the water.

Osha.

O-o-osha!

Hm?

[groans]

[gasps]

Uh! Here's the thing.

You can't keep your eyes closed when you're underwater.

- Osha. - Let's try it again.

But this time we'll do it together, okay?

Osha.

Just keep your eyes wide open and look straight at me.

Osha.

One, two, three!

Hm?

[moans]

(Ash) 'Oshawott, open your eyes!'

[Ash screaming]

[groaning]

[instrumental music]

Tepig!

Ax!

Emo.

Emol!

Sni.

Sni-vy!

Emol!

Dweb-ble!

Dweb? Dwebble! Dweb.

- Pan! - Ha-ha-ha!

- Looks like game over. - Pika.

Dwebble. Dwebble. Dweb.

(Iris) 'No problem. It's not your fault, Dwebble.'

Scrag. Scraggy!

Scrag..

- Foongus. - Foongus.

Scrag?

- Foongu! Foongu! Foongu! - Foongu! Foongu! Foongu!

Scra-a-a!

Scraggy!

[Foongus groaning]

- Foongu! Foongu! Foongu! - Foongu! Foongu! Foongu!

Scrag! Scraggy!

- Foongu! Foongu! Foongu! - Foongu! Foongu! Foongu!

[howling]

(Scraggy) 'Scrag! Scraggy! Scraggy! Scraggy!'

- Huh? - Huh?

- Emol! - Dwebble!

What's with them?



- Pika-Pika! - Uh?

Huh? Uh.. Where's everybody going?

It's lunchtime! Where is everyone?

- Something must have happened. - Huh?

Scra-ggy!

[grunts]

- Foo-o-o-o-o! - Foo-o-o-o-o!

- Foo-Foo! - Foo-Foo!

Foo!

Scragg?

[clamoring]

- Wait. Huh? - Huh?

- Foongus. - Foongus.

[Pokemon groaning]

Try it again. Keep your eyes open.

- Huh? - Osha! Osha!

- One more time-- - Ash!

- Huh? - Osha?

What's up?

(Iris) 'It's Pikachu and the others.'

- Oshawott, let's go! - Osha.

[groaning]

(Ash) Hey, Cilan! Iris! I'm coming!

What's going on?

[groaning]

'This is bad. Ah! Pikachu!'

[Pokemon groaning]

'Pikachu, are you okay?'

Everybody?

Those Foongus shot poison spores at everyone

and now I'm afraid they're all in really bad shape.

Foongus, huh?

(Pokedex) Foongus. The Mushroom Pokemon.

Foongus release poisonous spores

to repel anyone who tries to catch them.

For unknown reasons, they resemble Poke ba*ls.

- Foongus! Foongus! Foongus! - Foongus! Foongus! Foongus!

I'm afraid I'm out of the antidote

that cures the poison.

We could go to a Pokemon Center

but I'm afraid

there isn't a Center within miles of here.

[groaning continues]

Pikachu..

I'm wondering if there's any Remeyo Weed

growing in the lake.

You wanna get Remeyo Weed?

Right. If you use it to make tea it'll neutralize the poison.

- I'll do a search on it. - Huh?

[machine beeping]

Excellent. There's a lot nearby.

Great! Let's go find some, Oshawott!

Osha-Osha! Oshawott!

I'll come with you.

I'll stay here and keep an eye on everyone.

Thanks. Let's go.

[instrumental music]

Feels like we've been walking forever. How much farther?

Oshawott. Osha.

We're very close..

- And here we are. I knew it! - Huh?

(Cilan) 'It says Remeyo Weed grows in crevices'

between rocks on the bottom of the lake.

Then I'll just swim down and get some.

- It's not that easy. - How come?

The crevices that Remeyo Weed grows in are very small.

There's no way you'll be able to fit.

Huh?

(Cilan) In the old days, people used water-type Pokemon

specially trained to gather it.

We can handle that.

- Hm? - Osha?

Right, Oshawott. You can do it for sure.

Oshawott.

But those narrow crevices make it difficult to see.

Since Oshawott won't open its eyes underwater

how will that work?

(Ash) 'Easy. All I need to to do'

'is pull on Oshawott's ears like this and guide it around.'

Osha..

- We're ready to go. - Huh? Really?

Leave it to us. Let's go, Oshawott!

Osha!

[water gurgling]

Osha..

[instrumental music]

I hope they know what they're doing.

[groaning]

It's all ready.

Fresh-squeezed Oran Berry juice.

'It won't heal the poison'

'but the energy you'll get from drinking it'

'should help you feel better.'

Ash and Oshawott will be back soon with the Remeyo Weed

'so hang in there.'

Pika-Pi.

[water gurgling]

[instrumental music]

[growling]

[croaking]



[croaks]

Huh? Over there?

That's it!

Okay. Grab it, now! Huh?

[shrieking]

[gasps]

[Tympole clamoring]

Osha? Oshawott! Osha!

[shrieking]

Oshawott, get out of there! Quick!

- Oshawott! - Come on!

- Osha! Oshawott! - Oh, no!

Oshawott, open your eyes! Dodge them!

Osha?

[shrieking]

Osha!

Osha!

(Oshawott) 'Osha-wott!'

Oshawott, are you okay?

[Oshawott babbling]

Osh-Osha! Osha!

Osha! Osha! Osha!

Look at that! What's going on?

Ash! Oshawott!

(group) Who's that Pokemon?

(group) It's Foongus!

Foongus!

[birds chirping]

Huh?

I hope they're okay.

[instrumental music]

Osha. Osha. Osha.

[Tympole babbling]

Come on, Oshawott, Razor Shell!

O-o-osha! Osha!

It won't work, if you can't see!

'You've gotta open your eyes! You can do it!'

Osha.

Just a little wider.

[shrieking]

O-o-osha!

What's going on down there?

Osha.. Osha..

- One more time! - Osha!

(Ash) 'Try to open your eyes again!'

Osha.

[groans]

Hurry, Oshawott!

[instrumental music]

Way to go. Razor Shell, again!

[shrieking]

- You did it, Oshawott! - Osha!

Those Tympole might be coming back, so let's get out of here.

Osha.

Palpitoad. Palpitoad!

Stunfisk!

[grunts]

Palpitoad. Palpi-Palpi.

Stunfisk!

Stun-fi!

[screaming]

What's that?

[Ash screaming]

- Huh? - Ah..

Are you alright?

Yeah. If it wasn't for Oshawott, I would've been in big trouble.

- I still got zapped, though. - Osha.

- Huh? - Huh?

[laughs]

That Stunfisk must be the reason you got shocked down there.

(Ash) Hmm.

(Pokedex) Stunfisk. The Trap Pokemon.

Stunfisk hides itself in the mud

and then delivers an electric jolt when its prey touches it

smiling all the while.

That's one dangerous Pokemon!

Why did you have to do that?

- Oshawott! Osha! - Stunfisk!

- Oh! - Huh?

Man! Now how are we gonna get any of that Remeyo Weed?

That Stunfisk'll make sure we don't get anywhere near it.

You just leave that Stunfisk to me

and do what you need to do.

Because...it's now..

...fishing time!

- Huh? - Osha?

Sparkling water, the perfect stage..

...for a battle between Stunfisk and me!

Demonstrating the triumph of spirit!

Wow, all that stuff's pretty impressive!

But, hey, get moving!

With pleasure!

Go, backhand cast!

[whirring]

[instrumental music]

Hmm. There's something wrong here.

Like an out-of-place ingredient in a tried and true recipe.

But soon, that out-of-place ingredient will be history

and we will savor the feast of joyous conquest.

I got it! A bite! That's it! Success!



Wow.

[grunting]

Now, you're all mine! Hah!

Stunfisk!

Mission accomplished!

Wow! That's great!

- Huh? - Hey, now what?

[growling]

A Palpitoad!

(Pokedex) Palpitoad. The Vibration Pokemon.

Palpitoad's long, sticky tongue is used to capture prey.

It lives both on land and in the water.

[croaks]

[croaks]

[Ash groans]

Stunfisk!

[screams]

Cilan!

Ugh! I can see that you two are friends.

- Okay, Ash. - Huh?

- You handle Palpitoad! - Okay. Leave it to me!

Meanwhile, I'll take care of that Stunfisk!

[screams]

Okay, now it's our turn!

Oshawott, wanna battle Palpitoad?

Osha-wott! Osha!

[croaking]

Osha!

(Ash) 'Remember, Pikachu and the others'

'are counting on us.'

'You can do it, Oshawott!'

- Osha! - I know you can!

Osha. Osha.

Okay, Oshawott, Water g*n!

Oshawott.

Oh, no! That's Hydro Pump!

Osha.

[screaming]

Oh! Oshawott, you okay?

Osha! Oshawott!

Okay, Razor Shell!

[shrieking]

Osha!

Ah! Oshawott, fight it!

It's confused from the Supersonic.

That's Mud Shot! It's changing its attacks fast!

[Oshawott whimpers]

Oshawott. Osha-Osha.

(Ash) 'Whoa, Palpitoad's really strong.'

Yeah. I think I'm gonna catch it.

It's all or nothing.

Oshawott, Aqua Jet!

You're doing great.

Oshawott!

Oshawott, look out!

Osha?

Quick, open your eyes!

Like when you used Razor Shell! Before, back in the lake!

'Remember what you did, Oshawott! I know you can do it.'

Oshawott, now!

[howling]

Ah!

[whimpering]

[instrumental music]

- You did it, Oshawott! - Oshawott!

Well, then, I think it's fishing wrap-it-up time!

Stun-fi!

[groans]

Alright, go Poke Ball!

It's Poke Ball time for me, too!

Oshawott! Oshawott! Oshawott!

Thanks, Oshawott.

Wow, I just caught a Palpitoad!

Osha!

And I've got a Stunfisk! Good catch!

Huh?

Because you're already traveling with six Pokemon

your Poke Ball's not working.

Right.

[instrumental music]

Oshawott, I want you to go and get that Remeyo Weed.

I'm sure you can do it yourself, now.

Osha. Osha!

Osha. Osha.

Osha!

Osha.

(Iris) It's finally ready!

Here, everyone!

It's the medicine made from the Remeyo Weed

Oshawott brought.

Drink it all up.

Pa-a-an.

Dweb..

[music continues]

[clamoring]

The medicine really worked. Everyone looks great.

They sure do. Awesome.

Thanks to all of your hard work, Ash.

Nah. Oshawott did the work.

Pika-Pika.



Axew.

- Tepig. - Pansage.

- Swadloon. - Snivy.

- Emol. - Dwebble.

Scraggy.

Osha. Osha.

(narrator) And so, not only are the Pokemon feeling great

Oshawott's also feeling proud.

Proud of overcoming an old fear

as well as mastering Aqua Jet.

Now with the addition of two new Pokemon to the family

thanks to Ash and Cilan

our heroes' journey to Nimbasa City continues.
