17x13 - Kindergarten chaos!

Post by bunniefuu »

If two Trainers' eyes happen to meet

the rule is

- they have a battle. - Yeah, I agree.

I'm Ash. This is my friend, Pikachu.

[EXCITED] Uh, is that really a rule?

I'm not so sure it's a hard and fast rule

but it is pretty standard stuff.

My name's Penelope.

Sylveon, come on out.

[APPEARING]

I've never seen that Pokémon.

[HAPPY]

♪ I wanna be the very best

♪ Like no one ever was

♪ To catch them is my real test ♪

♪ To train them is my cause

♪ Pokémon gotta catch them all ♪ It's you and me

♪ Pokémon ♪ I know it's my destiny

♪ Pokémon ♪ Yeah you're my best friend

♪ In a world we must defend

♪ Pokémon ♪ Gotta catch 'em all

♪ Pokémon ♪

ASH "KINDERGARTEN CHAOS!"

NARRATOR On their way to Cyllage City

and Ash's second Kalos Gym badge challenge

our heroes have met a Trainer named Penelope

who has just challenged Ash to a battle in the forest.

It looks kind of like Espeon.

Sylveon, the Intertwining Pokémon

and an evolved form of Eevee.

Sylveon affectionately wraps its ribbon like feelers

'around its Trainer's arm as they walk together.'

Wow. So it is an evolved form of Eevee after all.

Hey, Ash, did you know that Sylveon is a Fairy-type Pokémon?

No. Fairy type?

Yeah. Dedenne's a Fairy type too.

That's pretty cool stuff.

A new type. A new Pokémon!

Alright, Froakie, I choose you!

[APPEARING]

- 'Promise me something.' - Huh?

If I happen to beat you in our battle

you're coming with me, sweetie.

Is she serious? Her and Ash? No way!

Sure. But there's no way I'm gonna lose.

Alright, Froakie. Attack with Bubble.

[BUBBLE MOVE]

Sylveon, use Fairy Wind!

[FAIRY WIND MOVE]

[PAINED]

Ah. Froakie!

CLEMONT 'That Fairy Wind stopped Bubble.'

Froakie, are you able to get up?

[STRUGGLING]/[DETERMINED]

Sylveon, Moonblast, let's go! [SINGING]

[MOONBLAST MOVE]

Froakie, jump!

[DETERMINED]/[EXERTION]

Quick, knock them all down. [SHOCKED]

- Ha! Just a decoy. - Ah!

'Use Water Pulse.' [WATER PULSE MOVE]

Way to go, Froakie.

PENELOPE You okay, Sylveon?

Okay, it's time to wrap this up!

[DETERMINED]

Alright, Sylveon, use Attract.

[ATTRACT MOVE]

[SHOCKED]

Froakie, no!

[STRUGGLING]

[IN LOVE]

Ah. It looks like Attract worked.

This is bad.

I've never seen Froakie acting so weird

like that before.

Froakie, snap out of it.

[PANICKED]

Alright. Now use Draining Kiss.

[IN LOVE]

[DRAINING KISS MOVE] [SHOCKED]/[STRUGGLING]

[PAINED]

ASH 'Froakie.'

[SHOCKED]

You okay?

[DAZED]

Obviously, Draining Kiss drained all of Froakie's energy.

Froakie's unable to battle. That's it.

Here, take this Oran Berry. It'll help.

Penelope, thanks a lot. Here, Froakie. Eat this.

- 'Well, I won.' - Huh.

So now you have to keep your word, sweetie, and come with me.

Huh? She's serious. You're gonna go with her?

Whee..

[laughing]

I'm back, children.

Hey. It's Miss Penelope.

Look at all the kids. [AMAZED]

This looks like some sort of kindergarten class.

- Are you a teacher here? - Yes.

Did everybody behave while I was out?

Yes, ma'am. We've all been really good.

So what kind of Pokémon did you bring here for us today?

Wow. Pikachu.

[indistinct chatter]

Look at that. You brought us a Pikachu to play with today.

- Play with today? - So neat.

I've never ever seen a Pikachu before in person.

Neither have I.

[EMBARRASSED]

Look. There's a Froakie, too.

[PROUD]

Welcome back.

It looks like you brought Pokémon

with Trainers today.

That's right, I did. It's something new.

We ran into Ash and his friends when we were out in the woods.

How nice of you to come.

You see, my Sylveon and I go out into the fields

and forests every day

and the two of us make friends with wild Pokémon

and then we bring them back here with us.

We do this so the children can meet and learn all about them.

Interesting.

You could've just told us that right from the start.

Right, buddy? [HAPPY]

Oh, so that's why Penelope wanted Ash

to come here with her.

[SURPRISED]

So the Twerps are busy visiting a kindergarten, eh?

What a Twerpish waste of time.

Wow. That Sylveon's really cute.

My heart's meltin' like a candle.

Meowth. Don't tell me that Attract worked on you too.

[APPEARING]

[ANNOYED]

You're right, and I'd better snap out of it pronto.

But that doesn't mean they don't have a total cutie pie there!

What a moosh head.

Regardless, today's the day we grab Pikachu.

And let's grab that Sylveon while we're at it too.

Right. It's Operation Doubleheader.

[DETERMINED]

- Pikachu is so cute. - Can I pet Pikachu, please?

Yeah, of course.

- Wow, it's so soft. - It sure is.

I didn't know Pikachu's tail was all pointy like that.

Ooh. Pikachu likes it when you pet its tail.

Really?

[PROUD]/[HAPPY]

Since we're all here, you're most welcome

to play with my Pokémon as well, if you'd like.

Really?

Wow, that's a great idea, Clemont.

I'm sure more Pokémon will be more fun.

- Thanks so much. - 'Come on out, everybody.'

[APPEARING]

[FRIENDLY]

[AMAZED] Look, it's a Fletchling.

And a Fennekin and a Bunnelby and even a Chespin.

And here is my friend, Dedenne.

[PROUD]

Huh?

- Hey, who was that? - That's Randall.

I'll go call him.

Randall loves Pokémon as much as the other children.

He's just a little shy, that's all.

[TENDER]

- Fennekin's fur is so soft. - Thank you.

That's because I brush Fennekin every single day. Right?

[HAPPY]

I can't believe how big Bunnelby's ears are.

And Bunnelby's ears are very strong.

Bunnelby, use Dig.

[FOCUSED]/[DIG MOVE]

Wow!

Might be prickly. Uh.

[JOYFUL]

It feels weird but it feels kind of nice too.

That's right. You just have to be gentle.

Chespin really loves to be petted.

Aww.

[RAVENOUS]

See, isn't Dedenne a cutie?

Here you go, Fletchling.

And, Sylveon, you too.

[HAPPY]/[CARING]

[CURIOUS]/[UNINTERESTED]

Is something wrong with Froakie?

It's because it lost the battle to Sylveon.

I think Froakie's a little embarrassed about the Attract.

Froakie, it's all over and done with.

[EMBARRASSED]

See? Look at all the Pokémon.

Hm. Uh, yeah.

Your name's Randall, right? My name's Ash.

Randall, how would you like to make friends with Froakie?

[SAD]

Huh? Mm..

Froakie is not gonna hurt you.

I-I'm kinda scared.

Why don't you try to feed Froakie?

No way! I'm scared.

Oh. It's okay.

Watch what I do, Randall.

[ENCOURAGING]

Those Pokémon don't fool me.

I-I'm not dumb. You never know what they'll do.

[giggling]

Huh? It's a Hoppip.

[NERVOUS]

Huh? Huh?

[ANGRY]

[SCARED]

[grunting]

[FRIGHTENED]

Huh? Uh. Uh. Uh.

All I wanted was for Hoppip and me to be friends.

It was awful.

BONNIE I'm sorry that happened to you.

CLEMONT Maybe something happened that caused Hoppip

to become frightened.

Sometimes not knowing

what a Pokémon's gonna do can be lots of fun.

Try not to let them scare you so much.

[ENCOURAGING]

But how? I can't help how I feel.

I can't. They'll never be my friends.

[all gasp]

Well. Hello there, all you boys and girls.

We've put together a super-duper show

for all of you cutie kiddies.

Get ready for a great time.

Ah..

- Let's go, Randall. - Okay.

What is this? Did you ask those folks to come here?

No. I didn't.

One of our favorite pastimes is volunteering to travel around

and entertain all you children.

Alright. Can I try it too?

[EXCITED]

Of course. You're all welcome.

The more, the merrier, I always say.

Wow, that's awesome. Let's try it, Randall.

I know we'll have a great time.

But I..

You're all our special guests.

So, people and Pokémon, right this way to the stage.

JESSIE Alrighty, then.

Everybody gets one of these balls.

With these things, even a beginner can play along.

'That means everyone.'

[all laughing]

[indistinct chatter]

[sighs] Huh?

JESSIE 'Did everyone get a ball?'

ALL 'Yay.'

Alright, let's go.

On the count of three, throw your ball up high.

And one, two, three.

Yay!

[SHOCKED]

GROUP "Who's that Pokémon?"

"It's Sylveon."

What?

[screaming] [coughing]

[STARTLED]/[STRUGGLING]

Ah. Oh, no. What happened?

Oh. What's going on here?

Oh, I don't see those entertainers anywhere.

- Me neither. - Let's get off the stage.

Everyone, watch your step.

[CONCERNED]

Come on, this way.

- Is everybody alright? - It was scary..

Everybody off the stage?

[PANICKED]

[grunting]

Ash! Are you alright?

Who's that?

Where did Sylveon go?

Prepare for trouble, what's going on is us.

And make it double. Being us is a plus.

To protect the world from devastation.

To unite all people within our nation.

To denounce the evils of truth and love.

To extend our reach to the stars above!

- Jessie. - And James.

Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light.

Surrender now or prepare for a totally grown-up fight.

Meowth, that's right!

[PROUD]

- Team Rocket? - Ah.

They're bad guys who love to steal other people's Pokémon.

Give back Pikachu and Sylveon.

JESSIE Just as soon as you stop being a Twerp.

JAMES Which is never.

After all, stealing other people's Pokémon

is a one-way street.

In we go.

We have ignition so watch this rig roll.

Come back!

Pikachu. Sylveon!

Stop, now.

[grunting]

[CONCERNED]

SERENA/BONNIE Oh, no, Ash.

Randall? Randall, where are you?

Where is he?

Where's Randall?

Huh?

Such persistence. Try this on for size.

- Fletchling. - It's gonna need a washcloth.

JESSIE Which leaves Pikachu and Sylveon all for us.

'Buh-bye.'

[PROUD]

We're moving. Where to?

I-it's awfully dark in here.

[SCREAMING]

Pikachu. Sylveon.

Ah. Hang in there.

- Randall. Where are you? - Randall.

- I don't see him anywhere. - Where could he have gone?

Could it be that..

Yeah. Maybe he didn't get off the stage in time.

So. That would mean Randall's still in the truck.

I've got to rescue him.

Would you please watch all of the other children

while I'm gone?

- 'Of course.' - I'm coming with you, Penelope.

We want to go with you too.

Right. [ATTACK]

[ANXIOUS]

[EXHAUSTED]/[CONCERNED]

[CONCERNED]

[WORRIED]

[DETERMINED]/[EXERTION]

[DISAPPOINTED] [EXHAUSTED]

Huh? Huh?

Huh? Randall, Froakie, what are you doing here?

It's Ash.

[RELIEVED]

Don't worry.

I'm here. So everything will be okay.

Pikachu, Sylveon

let's get you out of there right away.

[STRUGGLING]

[SURPRISED]

Fletchling. Ah.

What happened? And where is everybody else?

Okay, Froakie, help me get them outta here.

[DETERMINED]

Ready?

[DETERMINED]/[EXERTION]

Again!

[grunting]

Man, those cases are tough. [AGREEMENT]

Randall. Help us out too, okay?

Huh?

'Pikachu and Sylveon are counting on you.'

[DETERMINED]/[EXERTION]

I'm scared. I can't help anyone.

- I don't know what to do. - Of course, you can help.

If we all work together, I know we can get them out of there.

Huh?

Poor Sylveon.

[SCARED]

Sylveon's Miss Penelope's Pokémon.

Her friend, and it's my friend too.

Yeah, that's right, Randall.

I wanna help. Huh?

That's what I like to hear.

Thanks.

- Let's go. - Yeah.

[DETERMINED]

[screaming] Ah.

[EXERTION]

Just a little more!

[grunting]

[RELIEVED]

ALL Alright!

Huh?

[chuckling]

[CARING]

Ah. Huh?

[GRATEFUL] Huh?

Sylveon's saying thank you.

[laughing] Sylveon, thanks.

[HAPPY]

[AFFECTIONATE] [SURPRISED]/[SCARED]

[laughing]

[EAGER]

Alright, let's get Pikachu out too.

Right! Huh!

Ready?

[grunting]

[THRILLED]

Pikachu.

Hey. You alright, buddy?

[RELIEVED]

Wow. That's great, Pikachu. [HAPPY]

[laughing]

[tires screeching]

Ah. Okay. We're here.

Now, that we've got Pikachu and Sylveon

what do you say we give the Boss a ringie-dingie?

Dig.

Wow, look out, six-figure raise.

These are our glory days. [gasps]

There's a Twerp in our truck.

Ah..

You won't sell.

[PANICKED]

Alright, I'm taking Pikachu and Sylveon back.

Not on our watch.

Pumpkaboo, I need you!

Okay, Inkay, you too!

[APPEARING]

- Shadow Ball, go! - Inkay, Psybeam.

[SHADOW BALL MOVE]

[PSYBEAM MOVE]

[PROTECTIVE]

Froakie. Water Pulse, let's go.

Pikachu, you use Thunderbolt.

[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

[PANICKED]

Now, Pikachu, Electro Ball!

[ELECTRO BALL MOVE]

[screaming]

[grunting]

ALL We're blasting off again!

[FRUSTRATED]

[URGENT]

Fletchling

[all gasp]

Ash. Everybody. You're all okay.

Yeah!

RANDALL A-and guess what? I helped save Pikachu and Sylveon.

You did, Randall?

No kidding?

So cool.

[laughing]

Hey, Ash, do you think Froakie and I

are gonna be good friends now?

Of course.

Froakie and I are both gonna be your friends forever.

And you can count on it. [CHUMMY]

Ah..

[TOUCHED]

Wow, Randall, you're not afraid.

- Yeah, way to go, Randall. - Thanks.

RANDALL When I get bigger, I wanna be a Pokémon Trainer too.

And then you know what?

I'll go on a journey with a friend like Froakie.

Awesome. And the next time I see you

we'll have a battle, okay? [TOUGH]

Mm-hmm. It's a deal, Ash.

Great.

Okay, time for us to go.

We owe all of you so very much. Thanks for everything.

Have a safe journey.

[FRIENDLY]

Thanks.

Take care, everyone. [FRIENDLY]

Bye. Take care.

Bye-bye.

[FRIENDLY]

ALL Bye-bye.

Bye-bye. Bye, everyone.

NARRATOR And so, our heroes have some new friends.
