16x15 - Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!

[bunniefuu]

[EXERTION]


[DISTRESS]


Oh, what a shame. You're frightened.


You should have more confidence.


You're my star test subject, after all.


That makes you a splendid Pokémon, indeed.


Starting with Galvantula.


I can't wait to see how much you can amplify


'its electrical energy.'


[EXERTION]


[EXERTION]


Once this system is complete, all of Unova will belong


to Team Plasma. Don't you agree?


- That's not really my concern. - Hm?


I am interested in one thing only.


And that is to discover a way


to bring out the true power of Pokémon.

ASH "Team Plasma's Pokémon


Power Plot."


NARRATOR Continuing on foot toward


the White Ruins where they hope to learn more


about the Legendary Pokémon Reshiram


our heroes are now approaching Floccesy Town.


Awesome. Floccesy Town.


[HAPPY]


Surrounded by natural beauty.


I hear they even have a ranch.


We should go. I want to see that.


[EXCITED]


[EXERTION]


Check out the Amoonguss. They look mad.


PIKACHU [WORRIED]


[ATTACK]


What was that for?


[ANGRY] [ATTACK]


It appears they think we're their enemies.


But why? We didn't do anything to them.


[WORRIED]


Okay, Pikachu, use Thunderbolt.


[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]


[EXERTION]


Sorry, Amoonguss.


[CONCERN] I hope you're all okay.


[CONCERN]


We've got to get them to a Pokémon Center now.


NURSE JOY 'I've got to take care'


of Maractus and Patrat first.


Audino, the treatment room.


[EXERTION]


[indistinct chattering]


It won't be much longer.


I promise we'll get to all of you.


Nurse Joy, we need your help.


Huh? And now, three Amoonguss.


It doesn't look serious.


Please lay them down right over there.


AUDINO [URGING] Coming.


But Nurse Joy?


It's alright. She'll be back very soon.


- Officer Jenny. - Excuse me. What happened?


It's the Pokémon living on the mountain.


For some reason, they've been coming down


into town and attacking people.


Attacking? No way.


[CURIOUS]


I wonder what's going on.


I'm afraid we have no idea.


The same thing happened to us.


[AGREEMENT]


JENNY And it's been gettingworse.


We got help from some Trainer's Pokémon today


that held them off for a while, but we have no idea


what's causing them to go on such a rampage.


Now, that I think of it, I've been seeing strangers


hanging around lately up on the mountain.


- You don't know them? - That's right.


'Up near the observatory.'


'It doesn't make sense since it's been'


'closed down for years.'


I think I'd better go up there and have a look.


Officer Jenny.


There's a Bouffalant on a rampage now.


A Bouffalant?


MAN 'Please come with me, hurry.'


JENNY Right.


Now, let's see.


Pokémon are suddenly coming down


from the mountains and attacking.


This all has the very distinct aroma of mystery


blended with danger.


Attacking out of the blue makes no sense.



There has to be a reason.


[WORRIED] Let's check it out.


We need to go to that observatory.


PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]


Good, while the Twerps are on their way


it's time for Team Rocket to play.


Excellent. How convenient.


We can grab Pikachu


while those dopey dummies are distracted.


[ANGRY]


You can see how much it hates people.


So violent and so powerful.


Right, and not only that, Galvantula will obey


every command we give it.


Don't make eye contact. I'm now going to calm it down.


[ANGRY]


What have you done?


It appears to be unconscious.


Perhaps I used a bit too much energy.


I'll have to do further testing on the next subject.


ALDITH A Beartic.


I assume you'll be amplifying its ice energy.


[PAINED]


'I'm using an electromagnetic wave'


'to overload its mind and bring out'


'its aggressiveness which will raise'


'its attack power to the limit.'


'My theory continues to be without flaws.'


[CHEERFUL]


[HAPPY]


AXEW [HAPPY]


So quiet and peaceful.


A mild and mellow treat for the gourmet palate.


Don't get too used to it.


Hello, are you nice folks


headed for the mountaintop by chance?


Yeah. We want to go see the observatory.


Well, that might be a bit dangerous.


- I think you'd better not. - Huh?


[DISTRACTED]


Huh? Axew?


[ANGRY]


- Ah. - Oh, no.


- Hey, what's going on? - Hm.


[ANGRY]


Aah. Look at all the mountain Pokémon.


Their eyes. They look just like those three Amoonguss.


[ATTACK]


- Ah. - Look out.


[all screaming]


[all coughing]


- Huh? - Pikachu, stop it.


- What are you doing? - Pikachu can't hear you.


Even if it's your very best friend.


[grunts]


[whirring]


[growling]


[DAZED]


[CONFUSED]


- They're alright. - Pikachu.


- Axew. - Pikachu, you okay?


PIKACHU [AGREEMENT] I was so worried, Axew.


AXEW [AGREEMENT]


I covered the area with an E-M wave shield.


- And it appears to have worked. - E-M wave shield?


It's been a long time, Ash.


Huh? How do you know who I am?


It's me.


Whoa! Looker.


- Looker? Who's that? - Looker? Who's that?


- Him? Huh? - Him? Uh?


[EXERTION]


An investigator for the International Police.


- That's who. - Team Plasma?


Right.


There are an organization that's trying to take over


the Unova region.


Take over? Then they've got to be bad guys.


AXEW [AGREEMENT]


LOOKER We've been investigating


them for quite some time


and we don't really know anything


about their members or structure.


But still, we do know they're conducting experiments


'of some sort up on the mountain.'


- 'Experiments?' - Hm.


Their E-M waves make Pokémon become violent.


That's what made them do that?


Right. Then that's why the mountain Pokémon acted that way.


Pikachu and Axew too. Yes, of course.


LOOKER 'Correct.'


The waves have stopped. I'd better get moving.


Looker, we wanna go with you.


[AGREEMENT]


Let's see. You'll need help if the waves start again.


Alright, it's a deal.


But I want you to promise to stay close to me.


'Right.'


International Police and Team Plasma certainly make


for a complicated cast of characters.



But making Pokémon become violent


with E-M waves, that is genius.


And perhaps, a useful tool for us to capture Pikachu.


- Hello? - Huh?


Let me out. This thing's cramping my paws.


We can't have you losing a grip again


should the E-M waves start waving.


I've had it with your Fury Swipes.


I don't want you scarring on my beautiful face.


I didn't do that. Least I don't remember doing that.


Chin up. Just a little longer.


I'm innocent I tell ya. I'm being framed.


[PAINED]


Truly excellent.


Thanks to my genius and this amazing technology


our subject's attack power has grown by leaps and bounds.


Lord Ghetsis.


How is everything going, Colress?


Excuse me, I should say Dr. Colress.


It's all according to plan.


'Our test subjects are responding well.'


While all of our rampaging Pokémon continue to attack


those foolish humans indiscriminately


then soon, we will change the entire world.


The kind of world that only Team Plasma could envision.


Slow down. This is only an experiment for now.


It will still take time for us to fully implement the system.


[machine beeping]


- 'Unknown group approaching.' - Children? And that man.


From the International Police.


That ignorant fool is finally on to us.


Let's have some fun with Beartic.


Let it loose on them.


Now, that's an excellent idea.


It will also give us some useful data


on its attack power increase.


I wish you good hunting.


But first, we still need a little bit more time


until our test subject wakes up.


You leave that to us. Let's go.


- Right. - Right.


[chuckling]


GROUP Who's that Pokémon?


It's Magnemite.


Magnemite.


It looks just the same on the outside.


Do you think anyone's in there?


[CONCERN]


This is the only place that could be the source


of all of this trouble. I'm certain of it.


Well, I'm gonna go check it out.


[AGREEMENT] But, Ash, hold on.


[ATTACK]


Aah.


It's a Golbat and a Magnemite.


[screeching] [EXERTION]


And I'll bet those guys are from Team Plasma.


Perceptive. We serve Lord Ghetsis


acting as his eyes and ears in all things.


Ghetsis. Team Plasma's boss.


- Get them. - Sir.


Golbat, Shadow Ball.


Magnemite, Sonic Boom.


[SHADOW BALL MOVE]


[SONIC BOOM MOVE]


Pikachu, Thunderbolt.


Axew, Dragon Rage.


[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]/[DRAGON RAGE MOVE]


Keep up the attacks.


Golbat, Shadow Ball.


[SHADOW BALL MOVE]


Fight back. Electro Ball.


[ELECTRO BALL]


Alright. Retreat, immediately.


- Sir. - Sir.


- Huh. - They're getting away.


Stop. Come back.


PIKACHU [ANGRY]


You're not gonna get away.


[all panting]


Huh?


The International Police, eh?


We've been expecting you.


Are you the person called Ghetsis?


Me? Oh, no. I'm Colress. A scientist.


Alright, what are you guys doing here?


Because of what you've done


the mountain Pokémon have suffered greatly.


Mountain Pokémon?


Oh, you must mean the rejected test subjects.


They were all affected by the E-M waves


but that is of no great concern to me.


[snaps finger]


Show them the test subject's attack power increase, please.


All of you, fight with all you've got.'


[EXERTION]


Oh. So you're controlling all of them?


Of course. So this is the point of your experiments.


[ATTACK]


[ATTACK]



The subjects are following orders perfectly.


Our research is a success.


You've all got to calm down.


[URGING]


[ATTACK]


[ATTACK]


Uh. You've got to listen.


We don't want to have a fight with any of you.


COLRESS That means nothing to them.


They're all automatically functioning


in hyper aggressive mode.


'That is, toward people.'


- Huh. - Toward people?


[ATTACK]


Pikachu, Thunderbolt. [THUNDERBOLT MOVE]


Axew, Dragon Rage. [DRAGON RAGE MOVE]


[EXERTION]


Now, use Iron Tail.


[IRON TAIL MOVE]


Giga Impact, go.


[GIGA IMPACT MOVE] [EXERTION]


- What? - Ha-ha.


They couldn't have deflected them.


Could they?


Of course, we could.


You're not getting away with any of this.


[AGREEMENT]


- Ridiculous. - Oh, my.


They certainly are full of confidence, aren't they?


They seem to bring out the power of their Pokémon intensely.


That Pikachu in particular is quite interesting.


Interesting indeed.


[WORRIED]


[all gasping]


My experimental data will benefit greatly


from you as a test subject.


[EXERTION]


- Pikachu. - Stop.


Right now. [EXERTION]


Huh? It's completely overloaded.


Pikachu is now under our control.


[ANGRY]


- Pikachu, no. It's me. - Alright, attack.


[ATTACK]


[all screaming]


Ugh. Please, Pikachu, stop it.


[ANGRY]


Pikachu's the perfect subject.


I can finally increase the E-M waves.


[EXERTION]


Fight it, Pikachu. You've got to try to resist.


Impossible. It can't hear a thing you say.


Pikachu, continue attacking.


[ATTACK]


There's no way you're gonna control Pikachu.


Pikachu, we're buddies. You're my best friend.


Don't let them do this. Pikachu.


[CONFUSED]


Pikachu.


[EXERTION]


[RAGE]


- Oh. - Ah. That was incredible.


Pikachu snapped out of it.


Obviously Ash's heart was able to connect with Pikachu's heart.


- Awesome. - Way to go, Pikachu.


[READY]


Unbelievable.


What is the source of such magnificent power?


No time to find out.


Beartic, attack them now.


'Huh?'


- What's that? - Oh, no.


My program is being hacked. I must stop it.


Ah.


The Pokémon are back to normal.


Who did that?


[grunting]


Huh? Who are you?


Prepare for trouble, you know the drill.


And make it double, you'll get your fill.


To protect the world from devastation.


To unite the people within our nation.


To denounce the evils of truth and love.


To extend our reach to the stars above.


It's Jessie.


And James.


Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light.


Surrender now or prepare to fight.


Meowth, that's right. Hah.


ASH/CILAN/IRIS Team Rocket.


Kanto villains. Why are you here?


Because Unova villains are too stupid to take over Unova.


Although, we'll be happy to use this little system


'you sorted out for us.'


MEOWTH 'Then the Twerp's Pikachu'


will finally be in good paws for a change.


TEAM ROCKET Adios.


Of all the nerve.


We have all the data we need.


We can close the book on this particular experiment.



Hm. Let's go.


Huh. Stop, now.


ASH 'Come back.'


[EXERTION]


It's set to self-destruct.


[all gasping]


Not much time. We've got to get the Pokémon out of here.


- Right. - Right.


Everybody hurry.


[URGING]


Quick. Get behind some cover.


[grunting]


[screaming]


That was too close for me.


[AGREEMENT] [grunts]


They've blown up the observatory


and removed every trace of their experiments.


[panting] Are you all okay?


PIKACHU [CURIOUS]


[AGREEMENT]


Team Plasma, huh. They're Team Weakling.


Nicely put.


Like taking candy from out of the mouths of babes.


[beeping]


What's that?


Looks like Team Weakling's back for more.


[all screaming]


TEAM ROCKET We're blasting off again.


[RELIEVED]


Pikachu and Axew are back to feeling as good as new.


Beartic and the others will be all better soon as well.


[EXERTION]


Thank you very much, Nurse Joy.


[GRATEFUL]


So they were conducting experiments


up on the mountain?


My colleagues will follow up with you.


We'll get to the bottom of this.


Will you assist us with this matter?


Of course.


I know I can always count on Ash and Pikachu in a pinch.


And I can always count on you all. Thank you.


I hope your investigation of Team Plasma goes well.


I'm sure it'll go great. Lots of luck.


[CHEERFUL]


Take care. Safe travels. And best wishes.


And best fishesto you.


NARRATOR During their firstencounter
