PIKACHU?!

ASH: Right. Hey Hawlucha!

HAWLUCHA

ASH: Whoa, what's that?

PIKACHU?

HAWLUCHA

ASH: Is this what I think it is?

CLEMONT: A Pokémon Egg!

SERENA: Yeah? A Pokémon Egg?

BONNIE: I've never seen one before!

So what kind of Pokémon Egg is it?

CLEMONT: You can't tell just by looking at it.

ASH: Hawlucha, where'd you get this Egg?

HAWLUCHA

HAWLUCHA

ASH: You found it here?

HAWLUCHA

ASH: Maybe we can find the nest

PIKACHU?!

ASH: Wow, it's glowing!

PIKACHU!

CLEMONT: It might close to hatching!

ASH: What should I do?!

BONNIE: It's gonna hatch! It's gonna!

SERENA: Ash? I think you're supposed to keep it warm.

ASH: Right! Just leave it to me!

HAWLUCHA!

CHESPIN!

BONNIE: Yay! I'll help you keep it warm, too!

CLEMONT: Bonnie! Calm down!

You've gotto be very careful with that Egg!

BONNIE: I know, I know!

DEDENNE!

FLETCHINDER

ASH: You, too? Wow, that's really nice of you, Fletchinder.

FLETCHINDER

CLEMONT: Things are looking really good

SERENA: I can't wait for it to hatch!

DEDENNE!

ASH: Look at that.

SERENA: It's moving, it's moving.

CLEMONT: Won't be long

SERENA: You can do it!

BONNIE: It hatched!

SERENA: That's amazing!

PIKACHU!

HAWLUCHA?

ASH: What is it?

POKEDEX: Noibat. The Sound Wave Pokémon.

Noibat can cause damage as well as create hearing

problems for its opponents by emitting different

sound wave frequencies.

CLEMONT: How 'bout that? t!

BONNIE: Cutie

ASH: Wow, a Noibat!

BONNIE: It opened its eyes!

ASH: Hi.

PIKACHU!

NOIBAT?

ASH: My name's Ash. And this is Pikachu.

PIKACHU!

CLEMONT: And I'm Clemont.

SERENA: I'm Serena!

BONNIE: My name's Bonnie! And this is Dedenne.

DEDENNE

HAWLUCHA?!

CHESPIN?!

PANCHAM!

FLETCHINDER

HAWLUCHA!

CLEMONT: Fletchinder helped a lot by warming up

the Egg like that.

SERENA: How do you mean?

CLEMONT: Fletchinder has an Ability called Flame Body

that can actually help Pokémon Eggs hatch a lot quicker.

SERENA

ASH: Thanks, Fletchinder. You were great.

FLETCHINDER

NOIBAT

CLEMONT: That's Noibat's Supersonic!

FLETCHINDER!

BONNIE: Noibat. It's all right

NOIBAT

ASH: You don't have to cry.

NOIBAT

ASH: Everything's fine.

BONNIE: Hey, it stopped.

SERENA: Do you think petting it helped?

CLEMONT: I'm not sure.

ASH: I'll bet you're hungry, right?

SERENA: Its favorite foods are right here.

It says berries!

ASH: Berries, huh?

ASH: Whaddaya think?

SERENA: Looks good to me!

BONNIE: Dedenne, would you pick one?

DEDENNE!

DEDENNE

BONNIE: Okay, here you are!

NOIBAT!

BONNIE: But--don't you want it?

Maybe you don't like berries that much.

SERENA: But that can't be true.

BONNIE: Look! Yummy berry! Yuck! That's sour!

SERENA: It says right here that Noibat can tell how ripe a berry

is with sound waves.

ASH: Wow, you can do that, Noibat?

CLEMONT: So, it's a foodie.

NOIBAT

FLETCHINDER?

HAWLUCHA

FLETCHINDER

PANCHAM

PIKACHU!

NOIBAT

PIKACHU

PIKACHU

ASH: Guess they're sour.

BONNIE: So it doesn't like any of these?

NOIBAT?

NOIBAT!

BONNIE: This?

NOIBAT!

BONNIE: Here you go

NOIBAT!

BONNIE: It's really sweet!

ASH: Let's see. Tastes great!

CHESPIN?

HAWLUCHA?

CLEMONT: Sour, huh?

SERENA: Noibatcan really pick out the ripe ones.

CHESPIN

ASH: Don't spill it, 'kay?

NOIBAT

ASH: That should do it.

ASH: Where are you going?

NOIBAT

CLEMONT: I think it's trying to fly.

ASH: Uh oh

NOIBAT

ASH: You're okay. Did that hurt?

BONNIE: It stopped.

SERENA: Maybe it thinks Ash is its caregiver.

ASH: Now, let's try it once more.

NOIBAT!

BONNIE: Way to go, Noibat!

SERENA: You can do it!

NOIBAT

ASH: There. I've got you.

NOIBAT!

BONNIE: Maybe it can't fly because it's so little

CLEMONT: They're supposed to be able to fly

as soon as they hatch.

SERENA: I'll bet there's a trick to flying.

Just like, knowing the trick to riding a bicycle!

JESSIE: A Noibat that can't fly is useless.

JAMES: Here it is. It evolves into a Noivern.

And that's useful!

JESSIE: Noivern? That is useful. I can see it now.

Our newest Team Rocket member.

MEOWTH: Waste not want not

JESSIE: Listen up! The plan is to catch Noibat and force it to

evolve into Noivern, right?

JAMES: Yes, Ma'am!

ASH: Ready, Noibat? Time to fly!

PIKACHU!

NOIBAT?!

HAWLUCHA!

HAWLUCHA

FLETCHINDER

NOIBAT?

FLETCHINDER!

NOIBAT!

ASH: Yeah! You teaching Noibat is a great idea!

CLEMONT: Of course! You'll be great examples!

NOIBAT

PIKACHU!

FLETCHINDER

NOIBAT

PIKACHU

FLETCHINDER?

ASH: What's it doing wrong, Fletchinder?

FLETCHINDER

CLEMONT: Hey, Ash?

Maybe Noibat should start out by learning how to glide on

the currents of the wind.

BONNIE: Wow, that would work great!

ASH: Yeah, Hawlucha, would you teach it how?

HAWLUCHA!

HAWLUCHA

HAWLUCHA

NOIBAT!

PIKACHU

PANCHAM

HAWLUCHA!

NOIBAT

PIKACHU

BONNIE: You're doing great!

ASH: Good job!

HAWLUCHA?!

NOIBAT

HAWLUCHA!

PIKACHU!

PANCHAM!

NOIBAT

HAWLUCHA!

HAWLUCHA

PIKACHU?

ASH: Thanks a lot, Hawlucha.

NOIBAT

NOIBAT

ASH: Flying's not easy, huh?

PIKACHU

ASH: Hawlucha, do you have any other ideas?

HAWLUCHA!

CLEMONT: This is a stroke of genius!

CLEMONT: There's a constant wind blowing way up here,

so it's the perfect place to practice riding the currents!

HAWLUCHA!

HAWLUCHA!

ASH: Ready, Noibat? Let's give it a shot!

PIKACHU!

BONNIE: You can do it!

FLETCHINDER

NOIBAT!

NOIBAT

FLETCHINDER!

BONNIE: You're flying!

SERENA: Looking good!

PANCHAM

ASH: Keep it up!

FLETCHINDER?!

NOIBAT?!

ASH: I know that balloon!

JESSIE: Prepare for trouble, this balloon knows you!

JAMES: And make it double, it's silly but true!

JESSIE: To protect the world from devastation!

JAMES: To unite all people within our nation!

JESSIE: To denounce the evils of truth and love!

JAMES: We reached down low and grabbed from above!

JESSIE: Jessie!

JAMES: And James

JESSIE: Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!

JAMES: Surrender now or prepare for one flighty fight!

MEOWTH: Meowth, that's right!

JESSIE: Giving up this Noibat will make it much easier on you.

JAMES: After all, being a Twerp is hard enough!

MEOWTH: We're happy to lighten your load.

ASH: Give them both back!

BONNIE: Noibat's still a little Pokémon!

PIKACHU!

MEOWTH: You're little, too.No excuses!

JESSIE: We'll treat that little tyke like nothing less than

precious Pokémon gold, and very soon it will evolve

into a nifty Noivern!

ASH: Get back here!

ASH: Fletchinder! Steel Wing, let's go!

FLETCHINDER!

FLETCHINDER

JAMES: Okay, Inkay, OUT!

INKAY

FLETCHINDER?!

FLETCHINDER

JESSIE: Here, curveball!

ASH: That Team Rocket

ASH : "Who's that Pokémon?"

ASH : "It's Altaria!"

FLETCHINDER!

ASH: Better, huh?

FLETCHINDER!

BONNIE: Thank goodness!

ASH: Now go!

FLETCHINDER!

JESSIE: Relax. No sense getting into a tizzy.

NOIBAT

NOIBAT?

MEOWTH: Screech all you want, 'cause we can't hear you...

JESSIE: Your Supersonic's a dud.

JAMES: With protective headphones, that is.

You see, three pairs of screechless ears are happy ears!

MEOWTH: But we can still hear each other's words of wisdom.

MEOWTH: It's state-of-the-art Team Rocket tech!

HAWLUCHA

NOIBAT

JESSIE: If you don't learn to fly, we'll have

to give you the boot.

HAWLUCHA

HAWLUCHA!

MEOWTH: Featherbrain can't fly either.

JESSIE: I thought it was supposed to be smart.

JAMES: We saw you soar, so don't be a bore.

HAWLUCHA

NOIBAT?

MEOWTH: How are we gonna make Noibat evolve already?

JAMES: Hold Looking for ways to make a Noibat evolve

JESSIE: Isn't there some way to get this evolutionary show

on the road immediately?

JESSIE: We don't need to use a stone or wait for a certain time

to make it evolve, right?

Tell me it's not one of those annoying Pokémon

JESSIE: Maybe we can just turn it upside down!

INKAY?

JESSIE: Well?

JAMES: Found it!

JAMES: It says: raise it.

JESSIE: That's WORK!

JAMES: That's part of the fun.

JAMES: Take you! I've raised you well!

JESSIE: Noibat's not worth it.

JESSIE: Just where do you two think you're going?!

JAMES: Go, Inkay!

Double-Twerp Pokémon ambush!

JESSIE: That's when you grab them. Understand?

PUMPKABOO!

INKAY!

MEOWTH: That plan is top-notch.

FLETCHINDER!

JESSIE: Hey, it's pitch black in here.

MEOWTH: Watch where you're planting your feet.

NOIBAT

HAWLUCHA

JESSIE: Nooooooooooo

MEOWTH

JESSIE: All right! What's the big idea?!

JAMES: I swear I didn't do anything!

MEOWTH: Yeah, I'm clean, too!

JESSIE: Oh yeah? Who else could have done it?! Fess up!

JAMES: I'm innocent, I tell you!

NOIBAT

HAWLUCHA

JAMES: This isn't logical

PUMPKABOO

FROGADIER

ASH : All right, Pikachu, Thunderbolt, let's go!

PIKACHU

JESSIE: It's ironic that Noibat can't fly.

But it's no problem for us!

MEOWTH: Perhaps we should teach a course and charge for it.

JAMES: Meowth always has the best ideas

PUMPKABOO!

INKAY

caregiver all along!

BONNIE: Lucky

ASH: Yup. Glad you're here.

NOIBAT

ASH: Yeah! I caught a Noibat!
