they're almost impossible to get!

BONNIE: Daddy, you're the best!

MEYER: Nah. It wasn't so hard...

CLEMBOT: Because I waited in line to get them!

CLEMBOT: A two-hour wait is no big deal. Nope!

SERENA: It couldn't have been that easy.

ASH: What...What's wrong?

MAIRIN: Uh, sorry about that! I'm fine, really!

I didn't mean to worry you.

MAIRIN: The thing is... I've got a partner.

It's a Chespin, too!

MAIRIN: So your Chespin reminded me of my Chespie,

that's all.

SERENA: You call it Chespie?

PANCHAM: [QUESTIONING]

MAIRIN: Chespie's the best at everything.

Our Chespin's the best at eating yummy Poké Puffs.

CHESPIN: [PROUD]

MAIRIN: That's awesome!

SERENA: So it reminded you. Where's Chespie now?

MAIRIN: You see...

MAIRIN: Chespie's been asleep for quite a while.

MAIRIN: It won't wake up.

SERENA: Oh no. Mairin, I'm so sorry!

MAIRIN: Don't be. It'll be fine!

Right now, Chespie's being treated at Lysandre Labs.

They're awesome!

SERENA: Oh, good...

PANCHAM: [SYMPATHETIC]

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Ash. Hello!

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Planning for tomorrow?

ASH: Professor Sycamore!

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: What's this?

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Hi, Mairin.

MAIRIN: Professor!

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Good to see you.

Are you here to cheer for Alain?

MAIRIN: Uh huh...

ASH: Wait. You're Alain's friend?

ALAIN: Charizard, Flamethrower!

CHARIZARD: [FLAMETHROWER MOVE]

MALVA: Congratulations on making it to the finals.

MALVA: I'd guess winning will be easy. Easy for you...

ALAIN: Don't bother me now. I'm fine-tuning.

MALVA: I'm sure. I never thought you'd enter the Kalos League.

Knowing that you want to become the strongest Trainer of all,

I guess that would make sense.

ALAIN: Being the strongest Trainer

has nothing to do with this. I want... to battle him.

That's all.

MALVA: Are you talking about Ash?

MALVA: You're giving him all this attention.

The boy should be flattered.

ALAIN: What do you mean? Just tell me.

Is that the real you talking?

MALVA: I hear the Mega Evolution energy gathering

is nearly complete.

So after you save Chespin, then what do you do?

ALAIN: None of your business.

MALVA: Yes, you're right.

JESSIE: So tired...Please tell me we're done for today...

JAMES: I'm starving!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

MEOWTH: Hey. Stifle it!

MALVA: Here we go...Let's edit!

MEOWTH: I thought we were done.

MALVA: Then how are we going to get it on air in time?!

Come on. Get back to work.

JESSIE/JAMES/MEOWTH: Yes ma'am...

JESSIE: Wait 'til you see wtomorrow brings.

We'll give you some big news.

JAMES: The Pokémon who have made it to the finals

are quite a cadre of especially strong specimens.

MEOWTH: We'll catch them all and then we can eat!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

MEOWTH: Turn it down!

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Have you seen Alain already?

MAIRIN: Not yet.

MAIRIN: I'll see him after the finals are over.

I know he's gotta concentrate. Don't wanna bother him.

MAIRIN: There will be plenty of time to bother him later!

ASH: Got it.

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

CLEMONT: By the way. Professor, why are you here?

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Well,

I've been doing quite a bit of research...

and I found this about Greninja's powers.

ASH/SERENA/CLEMONT/BONNIE, ACT BREAK: "Who's that Pokémon?"

ASH/SERENA/CLEMONT/BONNIE: "It's Sceptile!"

BRELOOM: [DRAIN PUNCH MOVE]

SAWYER: So that's a Drain Punch...

SCRAFTY: [PAINED]

SAWYER: It's a powerful move

that drains an opponent of its energy.

BRELOOM: [ENERGIZED]

SAWYER: Now, if they decide to use Leech Seed,

they could possibly turn the battle around in their favor!

SCEPTILE: [AGREEMENT]

SAWYER: It's so amazing.

There are so many battle tactics I don't know yet.

Yeah. It sure is a big world out there.

SAWYER: Pokémon battles are deep all right...

SAWYER: Being able to battle Ash at the Kalos League...

I've gained more experience here than I could've imagined!

SAWYER: And it was so much fun, too.

My greatest battle yet!

SAWYER: But...That's it.

My Kalos League challenge is over now.

SAWYER: I told Ash that I'd cheer him on

with a smile on my face.

And I will.

But it hurts. It really hurts!

SCEPTILE: [SYMPATHETIC]

SAWYER: I wish I could've battled more.

Just a little bit more!

SCEPTILE: [AGREEMENT]

SAWYER: I know what to do! I'll get more experience!

This's no time for crying!

SCEPTILE: [AGREEMENT]

LEAGUE REP: What do you think, Lysandre?

LEAGUE REP: We'll be happy to provide this area for you

to view the final match tomorrow.

LYSANDRE: I appreciate you arranging this so quickly.

Thanks very much.

LEAGUE REP: Not at all.

It's an honor to have such a well-known resident

of Kalos come watch our event. We all thank YOU!

LEAGUE REP: Well then, I must be getting along.

If you need anything, please call.

XEROSIC: Lysandre.

XEROSIC: We've taken control of central Lumiose.

The Gym is closed for the duration of the League,

so it was easy.

LYSANDRE: Tell me when preparations are completed.

XEROSIC: I will. At once.

LYSANDRE: What's Mairin doing now?

TEAM FLARE ADMIN: She made contact with the Trainer

who will be battling in the finals.

LYSANDRE: Oh... That's Greninja's Trainer. Good.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: I was looking at this old manuscript.

I found something. Look at this.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: They call it the Bond Phenomenon.

ASH: Bond Phenomenon?

PIKACHU: [QUESTIONING]

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Here's what it says.

It's a rare phenomenon that happens between Trainer

and Pokémon...when the bond of trust between them grows.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: In addition,

it appears the Pokémon's latent skills matter, too.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: So it's not something that happens

with every Pokémon.

ASH: Then that means Greninja's special, huh...

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: I remember saying how Greninja

chose you right from the beginning.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: At the same time,

Greninja may have been aware of its

many latent skills all along.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: It may have known that you, Ash,

would be the one who can draw out its true powers.

Perhaps your encounter was truly meant to be.

ASH: Yeah...

XEROSIC: Hurry with the setup!

TEAM FLARE GRUNTS X : Sir!

B CORE: [SCARED]

SQUISHY: [QUESTIONING]

SQUISHY: [WORRIED]

MAIRIN: Thanks. I'll be fine from here on.

BONNIE: Stay with us, please? We want to talk with you more!

MAIRIN: But Lysandre's waiting for me.

And I'd really rather not bump into Alain...

MAIRIN: Chespin...

CHESPIN: [HAPPY]

You're so sweet. I'm so glad I met you!

CHESPIN: [EMBARRASSED]

PANCHAM: [EXASPERATED]

MAIRIN: You're a bit different than my Chespie.

You act kind of silly, you know? You're kind of like me.

CHESPIN: [EMBARRASSED]

SERENA: One thing, Mairin.

SERENA: If there's anything we can do, just let us know.

We'll do whatever we can to help!

BONNIE: We sure will!

SERENA: Good luck. I hope Chespie gets well soon.

MAIRIN: Chespie's gonna be fine! It'll get better soon.

I'm sure of that!

BONNIE: When it gets better, please bring your Chespie over.

To play with Chespin!

CHESPIN: [AGREEMENT]

MAIRIN: Thanks a lot, you guys! I will. See you soon!

MAIRIN: Wow. This was a fun day!

BONNIE: See you tomorrow, 'kay?

ASH: We're finally going up against Alain!

What do we want? We want to win.

And we're gonna do just that!

ASH: Ready?

PIKACHU/GRENINJA/TALONFLAME/ HAWLUCHA/NOIVERN: [CHEERING]

ALAIN: Tomorrow is our battle against Ash. I just can't wait!

ALAIN: Not sure why, but that's how I truly feel.

CHARIZARD: [AGREEMENT]

PIKACHU: [QUESTIONING]

ALAIN: Charizard...

ALAIN: Very soon... we'll have enough.

CHARIZARD: [HAPPY]

LYSANDRE: Hi there. You must be Ash.

ASH: That's right. Who are you?

LYSANDRE: Lysandre. It's a pleasure to meet you.

ASH: Mairin mentioned you.

LYSANDRE: Oh? So you know Mairin?

ASH: Yeah, we were just hanging out with her.

She left for her hotel.

LYSANDRE: I came here to see you.

ASH: See me?

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Got a sec? Let's catch up.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Wow, Charizard! You look so strong!

CHARIZARD: [PLEASED]

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: So much to say...

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: There's a lot I want to tell you...

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: But now, the words escape me.

ALAIN: Are you angry I didn't come back?

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Angry? Oh, no.

I heard you've been working with Lysandre on his work.

ALAIN: I have been.

I didn't want to put you in any kind of danger.

ALAIN: They say there's great value

in the energy that's produced during Mega Evolution.

ALAIN: But there are those who will use that power for evil

and do anything to get it.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: You did that...

so you could protect me?

ALAIN: And I can't return.

I lost far too much after I left for my journey.

Until I can get them back...

I have to become much, much stronger.

PROFESSOR SYCAMORE: Do what you need to do.

LYSANDRE: The talk of the Kalos League...

is totally about you and your Greninja.

ASH: About the Bond Phenomenon, right?

LYSANDRE: Oh? The Bond Phenomenon...

ASH: That's right. You see,

Professor Sycamore looked into it. So is that it?

LYSANDRE: Such power is amazing!

It's a new possibility between people and Pokémon!

It's sure to be a guiding light...

that ushers in a new world.

LYSANDRE: Mega Evolution...

I'm interested in it

and the bond that exists between people and Pokémon.

I'd love to hear your story in detail after the League is over.

LYSANDRE: Can we make a promise to meet?

ASH: Sure...

LYSANDRE: Thank you!

Until then, I wish you the best of luck in the finals!

ASH: Thanks!

PIKACHU: [QUESTIONING]

MAIRIN: Hi, Lysandre!

LYSANDRE: Mairin! I have good news.

LYSANDRE: Everything will be better tomorrow.

LYSANDRE: Chespie, too.

All because of the Mega Evolution energy

Alain has gathered.

MAIRIN: Thank goodness. I'm so relieved!

ANNOUNCER: The final round of the Kalos League is upon us!

After one fierce battle followed by another,

one last battle remains!

NARRATOR: As the entire Kalos region watches,

two Trainers will battle in the finals!

Who will emerge victorious?

NARRATOR: Will it be Ash?

NARRATOR: Or will it be Alain?

REFEREE: Both Trainers please enter!

NARRATOR: As the Kalos League reaches its conclusion,

both questions will soon be answered,

as the journey continues!
