17x47 - A campus reunion!

[bunniefuu]

[Bonnie] There they are! There they are! I see them!

Dedenne, Dedenne!Right, Clemont?

[Clemont] Absolutely!

Go right ahead, Dedenne.

You too, Pikachu.

Pika?Dedenne, Dedenne!

Pika! Pika!

Pika, Ka... Pika, Pika!

Wow! It'’s like an electric shower!

Awesome! And Pikachu and Dedenne are loving it!

[Bonnie] I know, right?

My big brother invented these all by himself!

Wow, you did?

Yeah, I call them Clemontic Showers.

This place hasn'’t changed a bit.

It takes me back.

[Ms. Eclairisse] Clemont?

Pika?

It'’s really you, Clemont!

Ms. Eclairisse! It'’s been so long!

Who'’s that?

What'’s going on?

Pi! Pika!

[announcer] As our heroes continue their journey

to the Coumarine City Gym,

they have unexpectedly crossed paths

with a woman named Eclairisse.

You see, right now, I'’m on a journey

with my little sister and my friends.

That'’s wonderful!

Hi, my name'’s Ash,

and this is my partner, Pikachu!

Pikachu!Hi! Nice to meet you.

I'’m Serena.Hi! I'’m the little sister.

My name'’s Bonnie.

Dedenne, say hi to the nice lady.

Denne!

Bonnie! Clemont has told me

how cute and sweet you are.

It'’s such a pleasure to finally meet you!

And Clemont'’s told me a lot about you!

Always saying how pretty and how nice Ms. Eclairisse is...

I think he really, really likes you!

You'’re a keeper, so please take care of my brother.

I'’m a keeper?Right!

You'’d be perfect for him because you'’re so smart.

What?

I told you to stop this a million times!

I was just trying to help you!

Come on!

But I don'’t need that kind of help...

[Bonnie] Come on, Clemont, please?

Pika...

[Ash] A school for studying Electric-type Pokémon?

Pika, Pika.

Yeah, it'’s in the middle of town.

See, Clemont was a student there!

[Ash] Wow, no joke?

Nope. Look, there it is!

Would you all like to come have a look?

Cool, is that okay?

Of course it is!

Pika...

Here at our school, Trainers travel here from all over

to learn everything they can about Electric-type Pokémon.

Our students specialize in researching

the biology and behaviors of Electric-type Pokémon.

Their studies extend to Pokémon of other types as well.

As part of this research, they learn all about

how people and Pokémon can and should coexist in harmony.

Pika!

[Ms. Eclairisse] Many great Trainers have gone on

to be very successful after leaving this school.

But Clemont is one of the most notable graduates of all.

Come on. I think you'’re exaggerating a bit...

No way! You'’re amazing!

Yup! You keep coming up

with these totally incredible inventions

that always blow up in the end!

Dedenne!

They call you the Electric-type wiz kid

all around Lumiose City, don'’t they?

I know your father calls you that too...

Your father?

That'’s Meyer, right?

You see, it was my father who told me

I needed to go to this school.

"Meet lots of Pokémon Trainers, and make lots of friends.

Study hard, and broaden your horizons."

He told me to do that, and off I went.

So how did it work out?

Did you make lots of friends?

Pika, Pikachu!

Mm-hmm, I made friends with all kinds of great students

and Pokémon too.

But all that studying and research was tough,

to say the least.

The curriculum here is quite rigorous.

It'’s a challenge to do the work

and make it all the way to graduation.

Yes, and my graduation research was particularly tough.

Graduation research?

I studied the power of Electric-type Pokémon

and how the power of science can build the future.

That was my major focus.

I recall you did struggle with that.

You said you couldn'’t come up with any good topics.

Right, so I used to go for walks

and try to clear my mind.

That'’s when I met you-know-who.

[leaves rustling]

A Shinx!

Shinx!

Shinx...Oh, yeah, the Pokémon Center!

Thanks so much for waiting.

This Shinx was completely exhausted,

so it took an exceptional amount of time to recover.

Shinx!

Shinx, Shinx!What a relief!

I'’ve seen this more times than I can count.

It appears to have something to do

with the local environment.

If only there were a place where these Pokémon

could easily absorb electrical energy.

A place where they can easily absorb electrical energy...

That'’s it!

I'’ve come up with a great idea, Shinx!

Shinx?

I'’ll collect the power generated by the school'’s Pokémon,

store it in a battery,

send it by cables throughout the town,

and make an electricity shower for Electric types.

I'’ll call it the Clemontic Shower!

I can just see it.

The future is now, thanks to science!

[tapping at window]

Shinx!

Here, see this?

With my new system, you'’ll be able to absorb

all that electricity I know you love so much.

Shinx, Shinx!

I wanna make a town where Electric types can live happily...

No, a world where all Pokémon can live happily!

That would be my dream come true.

Shinx, you'’d live there, now wouldn'’t you?

Shinx! Shinx, Shinx!

That'’s how I completed my graduate research project!

The electrical transmission system that Clemont invented

was well-received not only by the school

but by the entire town'’s population as well!

What a great story!

That'’s the very first time

I heard Clemont talk about Shinx!

Dedenne, Dedenne!

[James] Fascinating.

So this town has an ample supply of electrical energy...

In that case, let'’s steal

every last bit of that energy for ourselves!

Since electricity isn'’t cheap, we could make a fortune

selling it to chumps, or if we gave it to the Boss...

He'’d be shocked.

But happy!

Wobbuffet!

[distant clatter]

Luxio?

Lux.

Lux...

That was a close one.

Dropping pliers could'’ve been bad for your health!

Wobbu, Wobb!

[Jesse] I wonder what that Luxio

was doing wandering around here?

Not sure, but we'’d better hurry up...

If you control electricity, you control the world!

Our ticket to a high-voltage future!

Right! We can lure Pikachu in

using the stolen electricity, and then, we'’ll catch it!

Perfect!

And, goal, yay!

Wobbuffet!Yeah...

[Clemont] Please excuse us.

This is the system control room I designed myself!

Clemont! What a nice surprise!

I'’m sorry to barge in, but I was wondering,

may I show all my friends around?

Of course! It'’s no problem at all!

[alarm sounding]

Status report!

There'’s a problem with the transmission cables!

Near the transformer!

Transformer?

That doesn'’t sound good...

Just what are you referring to?

Well, uh, the thing is,

a wild Pokémon has been making its home there...

Wild Pokémon?

Yes.

When we approach, it att*cks.

So, we'’re kind of at a loss.

It'’s okay, I'’ll go and have a look.

Please, let me come with you.

[Ash] Yeah, I'’ll go too!

Pika, Pika!

Since you'’re the designer, we value your opinions.

Give us some feedback!

I want you to wait here for me, Bonnie.

Will you keep an eye on her please?

Mm-hmm. Count on me.

Lux, Lux?

Lux!

It'’s at the end of that passageway!

Come on, what'’s the holdup?

It'’s a bit trickier than I thought!

Hey! Who'’s in there?

Team Rocket! What are you doing here?

Pika!

I think we'’d better make like a tree and leave!

Wobbuff!

[Serena] Stop!

Luxio!

Lux...

[Serena] What Pokémon is that?

[Ash] A Luxio!

[all] Who'’s that Pokémon?

[all] It'’s Luxio!

Luxio!

[Pokédex] Luxio, the Spark Pokémon,

and the evolved form of Shinx.

Luxio'’s sharp claws conduct electricity,

and the slightest scratch can knock out an opponent.

Lux!

Pikachu, Thunderbolt!

Pikachu!

Lux!

Hey, we'’re not your enemies!

Stop! You'’re looking for the bad guys!

They went that way!

Lux, Lux, Lux...

Lux, Lux!

Lux, Lux!

It'’s you!

Lux, Lux?

Lux!

Luxio!

Luxio, Lux!

Lux?

Lux, Lux, Lux, Lux...

Just great, it'’s that pesky Luxio again.

[James] That'’s what the science twerp was talking about.

It looks like we just might have to rethink our strategy.

We'’ll retool, then send the twerps back to Team Rocket school!

Wobbuffet!

[Ms. Eclairisse] Team Rocket?

They'’re really bad guys who like to steal

other people'’s stuff and Pokémon too!

Pikachu!

So they want to steal the town'’s electricity.

Then we'’re going to have to stop them!

They'’re stubborn. I'’m sure they'’ll be back.

That'’s for sure.

They'’ve caused an awful lot of trouble for us in the past.

Right, Clemont?

Clemont, wake up!

Yes, right!

They'’re troublemakers...

Well, we need to come up with a plan.

We'’ll have to be on full alert.

I'’ll let Officer Jenny know what'’s going on.

[Serena] There! All pretty now.

Pancham...

Okay, Fennekin, you'’re next.

Fennekin!

Clemont? What'’s bothering you?

Dedenne?

Uh, well, I was just thinking about Shinx.

Oh, Shinx.

You mean that Pokémon that you helped

when you went to school here?

It'’s probably still here in this town...

Pika!

I'’m sure of it!

I never finished the story I told you.

It was the day before my graduation.

Something bad happened.

Shinx and I had a regular meeting place.

I was on my way to thank Shinx for the idea

that led me to my graduation research.

This cake is decorated with lots of berries

for just the right amount of sweetness.

There'’s no doubt Shinx is going to adore it!

Then, I'’ll ask Shinx to become my partner.

And travel along with me back to Lumiose City.

Oh, it'’s Clemont!

Hello, Mr. Mayor!

I'’ve been looking all over for you, and here you are.

We'’ve arranged a very special dinner for you

to help celebrate your graduation.

Please, get in.

But, Mr. Mayor...

Quick! The whole town is waiting for you at the restaurant.

Time'’s a-wasting!

Come on, let'’s go!

But... But, Mr. Mayor...

All right!

[Clemont] Shinx!

As soon as I could, I hurried back there after dinner,

but Shinx wasn'’t anywhere to be found.

And after that, I never saw Shinx again.

[Ash] I get it...

[Serena] Hey! When Shinx evolves, it becomes Luxio, right?

So, could that Luxio possibly be...

Dedenne!Luxio? It evolved?

Maybe it evolved from the Shinx that was your friend!

Well, maybe I'’m wrong.

Remember, that Luxio didn'’t even respond to you, Clemont.

No. Your hypothesis is probably correct.

Pika?

Yeah. Looking into Luxio'’s eyes...

No doubt it'’s the same Pokémon.

That Luxio has to be my friend Shinx after it evolved!

What?No way!

Pika? Pika!

I never showed up at our meeting place

that day like I promised.

So, Shinx must have thought I abandoned it.

That'’s why...

[Bonnie] Oh, no, it'’s a blackout!Pika!

Clemont, this is awful!

A huge amount of electricity has been drained from the system!

Pika!I'’ll bet it'’s Team Rocket again!

Pika, Pika!

Luxio.

Lux?

Lux, Lux, Lux, Lux...

There'’s nothing like getting electricity at no cost.

And what could be freer than free?

Wobbuffet!

Lux!

Lux!

Why, you little pest!

We'’ve had about enough out of you!

And that'’s your cue, Pumpkaboo!

Pumpkaboo!

Inkay, you too!

Inkay, Ink!

I told the townspeople that they should stay inside their homes

until this whole issue is solved.

Also, according to Officer Jenny,

they found no one below ground.

But, where did Team Rocket go?

They were able to drain all of the town'’s electricity

at once somehow...

Hey, I'’ve got it!

Pumpkaboo!Inkay!

Shadow Ball!

Pumpka-ka-ka-ka, Kaboo!

Lux!

Luxio!

Team Rocket, there you are!

We won'’t allow you to steal any more electricity!

Prepare for trouble, how pompous is that?

And make it double, it'’s tit for tat!

To protect the world from devastation!

To unite all people within our nation!

To denounce the evils of all your rules!

To shut down the power on arrogant schools!

Jessie!And James!

Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!

Surrender now, or prepare for a lights-out fight!

Meowth, that'’s right!

Wobbuffet!

Lux, Luxio!

No way, Inkay.

I call Foul Play!

Inkay!Lux!

Pumpkaboo, Shadow Ball!

Kaboo!

Pikachu, use Electro Ball!

Pika!

Pika, Pika, Pika...

Chu, Pi!

Don'’t worry, Luxio!

Just stay down, and we'’ll take care of this!

Luxio!

Why do you insist on battling with Team Rocket?

Lux.

Luxio, Luxio, Lux, Lux...

Dig this-- Luxio wants a town

where all Pokémon can live happily.

It'’s protecting the place the science twerp helped change.

Where all Pokémon can live happily...

I want to make a town

where Electric types can live happily--

no, a world where all Pokémon can live happily!

That would be my dream come true.

Luxio!The nerve!

How pompous!

Finish this with Shadow Ball!

Pumpka-ka-ka-ka, Kaboo!

Look out!

Luxio, Lux!

Clemont, no!

Lux...

Thank goodness you'’re okay...

Lux?

Shinx!

Shinx?

Shinx, Shinx, Shinx!

Shinx!

Shinx!

Shinx...

Luxio...

Lux, Lux...

Luxio...

We got the juice, so time to cut loose!

Now, for Pikachu.

You'’re coming with us, without an excuse!

Wobbuff!

'’Kay, Inkay!

Use Psybeam!

Now, Pumpkaboo, Dark Pulse!

Kay!Kaboo!

Thunderbolt!

Pikachu!

Luxio, would you please stand and battle with me?

Lux!

Great-- use Discharge!

Lux, Lux...

Lux, Lux, Lux!

[Jessie] School'’s out!

[all] We'’re blasting off again!

Wobbuffet!

Inkay!

We did it, we did it, we did it, we did it!

Dedenne, Dedenne!Pika!

Luxio...

Please, wait!

Luxio! I'’d really like you to come with me!

I remember.

I gave you my word, then let you down.

But now... I'’ll be waiting for you!

At the same place, and at the exact same time.

So, if you decide to come with me,

meet me in the square!

I don'’t see Luxio anywhere.

I guess that means it'’s still mad...

Dedenne!

Luxio will show up!

We'’ve gotta give it a little more time!

Pika!

No.

I guess that Luxio still hasn'’t forgiven me,

which is all that I deserve.

It'’s time to go.

If I stay here any longer,

it won'’t be fair to the rest of you.

Let'’s get back on the road.

You came back after all.

Luxio!

Lux!

Pika!Wow!

'’Kay, here goes.

Go, Pokéball!

All right!

Today'’s a great day, thanks to science!

I caught Luxio!

Yay, that'’s my big brother!

All right!Pika!

[Clemont] Thank you, Luxio.

I won'’t let you down.

[announcer] And so, two old friends reunite,

as Luxio becomes the newest member

of our heroes'’ family.

But their quest to meet new people and new Pokémon

will go on, as the journey continues!
