PIKACHU

ASH

BONNIE: Wow!

ASH: Awesome!

ASH: The Poké Ball Factory!

BONNIE: It's huge!

SERENA: It's amazing to think that place is where

they make Poké Balls!

CLEMONT: I've dreamed of seeing it and now it's

Happening! I'm so happy

BONNIE: Try to get a hold of yourself.

JESSIE: We've been waiting for you.

JESSIE: We welcome you to our dream factory!

JESSIE: I'm the plant manager, and I'm in charge

of this facility.

JAMES: As assistant plant manager, I'm second in charge.

MEOWTH: And as secretary, I'm the third wheel!

CLEMONT: You're the plant manager

ASH: You're the assistant

SERENA: Third wheel?!

JESSIE: Oh, you're so smart!

We'd like to reward you with our premium grand tour.

And we'll be your tour guides...

JAMES: Lucky you

ASH: Wow, thanks a lot!

You're just a kid on a quest

To be the best of the best

Someday you're destined for power and glory

You know you're up to the test

There's only one way to tell this story

Be a hero!

Be a hero!

All the power is at your command

Face your fears and show you're a hero

The future of the world is in your hand

Pokémon!

NARRATOR: Our heroes are on their way to Anistar City,

where Ash's next Gym battle awaits, but first, who can

resist the opportunity for a personally guided tour

of the Poké Ball Factory?

ASH: Whoa, what an operation!

PIKACHU!

CLEMONT: Look at that! Everything in this Factory

is fully automated!

MEOWTH: Of course. We use only the latest in cutting-edge

production technology.

CLEMONT: Fascinating! I wish I could see it up close!

JESSIE: All good things come to those who wait! Be patient.

You'll soon see everything up close and personal.

CLEMONT: Are you serious?!

JESSIE: Of course. But first, first things first.

JAMES: We'll need to inspect all of your Poké Balls.

BONNIE: But why do you want them?

DEDENNE?

SERENA: I don't understand.

JESSIE: Here at our Factory, we offer a unique

and practical service.

ASH: Wow

CLEMONT: That's just what I'd expect! I'll get mine. Hold on.

ASH: Yeah. Me too.

SERENA: Might as well, don't you think?

DEDENNE!

MEOWTH: Now please place them in this custom-made

padded Poké Ball case.

CLEMONT: There.

SERENA: Thank you!

ASH: Mine, too.

MEOWTH: Make sure that's all of them

Wouldn't wanna leave one all alone, would we now?

ASH: One thing. You see, my Pikachu really doesn't like

going inside its Poké Ball.

PIKACHU

JESSIE: Of course not. We know that.

JAMES: Fret NOT! No problemp!

Fortunately, we've got just the perfect thing

Kindly place Pikachu right in here.

JESSIE: With a smile

PIKACHU

ASH: Hey, it'll only be for a little while, buddy.

MEOWTH: And if you don't mind,

we'll take Pikachu's Poké Ball as well.

ASH: Oh. Right!

CLEMONT: And now it's time for our personally guided

tour of the Factory!

JESSIE: Not yet

JESSIE: We have all the time in the world.

JAMES: We'd first like you to experience a special booth that

simulates what it's like for a Pokémon to be inside

of a Poké Ball.

CLEMONT: Like the inside of a Poké Ball?!

SERENA: That sounds like fun!

BONNIE: Yeah! Wow! Yay!

SERENA: This's quite a walk, isn't it?

JAMES: We're taking you to a place with unconventional,

cutting-edge science, so, naturally, it's located in

an unconventional location!

CLEMONT: Yeah?! I can hardly wait!

SERENA

JESSIE: Please step inside!

ASH: So this is the place?

CLEMONT: It looks like an ordinary storage room to me

BONNIE: This is what it's like to be inside a Poké Ball?

ASH: What's going on?!

JESSIE: Ha! HA!!

JESSIE: Prepare for trouble, we've done it again!

JAMES: And make it double, you're gullible times ten!

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: Fooling you Twerps fits us like a glove!

JESSIE: Jessie!

JAMES: And James.

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

JAMES: Surrender now or prepare for a Pokémonless fight!

MEOWTH: Meowth, that's right!

WOBBUFFET!

ASH: Team Rocket, it's you!

JESSIE: And being completely clueless proves

it can only be you!

JAMES: We were busy confiscating all these new factory-fresh

Poké Balls and minding our own business when you had

the nerve to show up.

ASH: You won't get away with this! Pikachu!

PIKACHU?!

MEOWTH: You dopes! Electricity flows in,

but it doesn't flow out

PIKACHU

PIKACHU!

MEOWTH: That case keeps the zaps from zapping, but I didn't

realize the glass is weak against physical att*cks.

JESSIE: So now you tell us!!

ASH: Pikachu, Thunderbolt!

PIKACHU

JESSIE: Wobbuffet, go!

WOBBUFFET

ASH: No good.

CLEMONT: It won't budge an inch!

ASH: Pikachu, one more time!
