NARRATOR Last time, our hero Ash finally arrived at Pummelo Stadium

to challenge the reigning Orange League Champion

and battle for the coveted Winner's Trophy.

Though Drake, the undefeated Orange League Trainer

proved to be a powerful opponent

Ash managed to win the first two battles

in the six on six match.

But when Gengar launched a Night Shade att*ck

and Lapras quickly countered with an Ice Beam

the results were expl*sive.

Now, the anxious spectators are waiting

to discover which Pokémon has triumphed.

ASH "Enter The Dragonite."

ANNOUNCER 'The smoke still hasn't cleared'

'from those two tremendous att*cks'

'but in a moment we'll see who the winner is.'

[WEAK]

Lapras, Gengar, both are unable to battle!

ANNOUNCER 'What a shocker! Both Pokémon are out of this competition!'

ASH 'Lapras, return!'

Lapras, you did great.

DRAKE 'Gengar, return.'

Good work. You've earned a good rest.

ANNOUNCER 'Well, Ash may not have won that round'

'but this is the first time a challenger has knocked out'

'three of the champion's Pokémon in a row.'

There'll be a time out for the field change.

ANNOUNCER 'In the Winner's Trophy competition'

'whenever three of either Trainer's Pokémon are defeated'

'the field is changed.'

ANNOUNCER 'And now, both these Trainers will have to adapt'

'and come up with brand new battle strategies.'

You're the only strategy I'll need to win.

JAMES 'The Twerp's doing pretty well for himself.'

He's not so great.

Well, if he's not so great

then how come we never manage to b*at him?

I've had enough of you two!

You insult us while Meowth sits there giving himself a manicure!

[laughs]

For James, it'd be a manicure

but for me, it's a Meowth-a-cure.

JAMES 'Well, great or not'

'that kid will never b*at Dragonite.'

Luckily, we don't need him to b*at Dragonite.

We just need him to battle it for a while

and tire it out for us.

Yeah, and then while its defenses are down

we can capture it and bring it back to the Boss.

And, that'll make us the real winners.

[laughing]

ANNOUNCER 'The new field's moving into place'

'and the Trainers are set for action!'

'This time the opponents will be dueling'

'on a sandy, desert-like battleground.'

ANNOUNCER 'There's the bell to start the second half'

'of this full six-on-six Winner's Trophy battle.'

'Drake, the undefeated Orange League Champion'

'has just three Pokémon left.'

I choose you, Venusaur!

[APPEARING]

ANNOUNCER 'Drake has picked Venusaur'

'who's won many a battle here in the past.'

Venusaur's too strong for Bulbasaur.

And Lapras needs a good rest..

I choose you, Tauros!

ANNOUNCER 'And Tauros gets a second chance from the challenger.'

'The wild bull Pokémon looks rested and ready to rumble.'

Let's shake 'em up. Fissure!

[FISSURE MOVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Tauros again leads off'

'with a frightening Fissure att*ck..'

[gasps]

ANNOUNCER '...but this time'

'the Fissure fizzled out.'

'The sandy surface sucked up the shock'

'and Ketchum's got himself one stunned steer.'

Oh..

Venusaur, Solar Beam, now.

[SOLAR BEAM MOVE]

Hey, Ash, maybe you can stop it

while it's still absorbing energy.

Tauros, Take Down att*ck.

[TAKE DOWN MOVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Now, the whole stadium's shaking'

'as Tauros stampedes straight for Venusaur!'

[DEFENSIVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Tauros' hooves won't hold'

'the sand's got it stuck in its tracks!'

Solar Beam, now.

Tauros, send Venusaur soaring now!

[att*ck]

[att*ck]

Tauros, please be okay!

ANNOUNCER 'Tauros is up!'

'It looks like that Solar Beam

'actually got Tauros unstuck from the sand.'

Yeah, alright!

This isn't over yet.

[AGGRESSIVE]

[WHINE WHIP MOVE]

[PAINED]

Tauros, you gotta try to get up!

[DETERMINED]

Now. Use Take Down att*ck.

[TAKE DOWN MOVE]

[VINE WHIP MOVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Tauros tears right through'

'Venusaur's Vine Whip.'

'The Take Down att*ck hits home and Venusaur goes flying!'

[PAINED]

Venusaur is unable to battle.

ANNOUNCER 'You heard it, fans!'

'The Challenger has now defeated'

'four of the champion's six Pokémon!'

You put up a fine battle, Venusaur.

Now, I choose Electabuzz!

[APPEARING]

ANNOUNCER 'The atmosphere here is charged'

'as Electabuzz, Drake's fifth Pokémon '

'prepares to take on Tauros.'

'The question is will Ash stick with the beefy battler'

'or is Tauros too tuckered to unplug Electabuzz?'

[PANTING]

It looks like Tauros is pretty worn out.

Ash better use another Pokémon.

Thanks, Tauros. Return, now.

ANNOUNCER 'The challenger is changing Pokémon.'

I gotta go with somebody fresh.

I choose you! Bulbasaur!

[APPEARING]

Bulbasaur, Grass-Types can mow down

Electric-Types in competition

We should have a lock on this one.

I don't know, Ash.

Don't forget, you have to take level

into account too, not just type.

Bulbasaur can handle it.

Use Thundershock, now.

[THUNDERSHOCK MOVE]

[BRACING]/[SHAKING OFF]

[IMPRESSED]

ANNOUNCER 'Bulbasaur shakes off the shock.'

'Ash's strategy is working perfectly.'

Razor Leaf, now!

[RAZOR LEAF MOVE]

[PAINED]

DRAKE 'Thunderbolt att*ck.'

[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

Tackle att*ck!

[TACKLE MOVE]

Electabuzz, Thunder Punch.

[THUNDER PUNCH MOVE]

[att*ck]

[THUNDER PUNCH MOVE]

[PAINED]

JUDGE 'Bulbasaur is unable to battle.'

ANNOUNCER 'Electabuzz short circuits the "Bulb!"'

'This high level Electric Type's defeat of a Grass Type'

'has this crowd buzzing!'

ASH 'Bulbasaur, return!'

Good job, Bulbasaur.

'Now, the heat is on for challenger Ash Ketchum.'

I choose you!

[APPEARING]

ANNOUNCER 'A wise move as Ash chooses Charizard'

'the only fully-evolved Pokémon'

'in this plucky youngster's arsenal.'

I just hope Charizard's

at a high-enough level to b*at Electabuzz.

Flamethrower!

[ROAR]

Electabuzz, go. Thunderpunch, now!

[THUNDERPUNCH MOVE]

[PAINED]

ANNOUNCER 'Electabuzz connects first'

'with a devastating Thunderpunch!'

'Charizard is cooling off quick'

'as the Champion grabs the early advantage.'

Hang in there, Charizard!

Thunder att*ck, now.

[THUNDER att*ck]

ANNOUNCER 'Ketchum better come up with something fast'

'or I hope he likes his Charizard extra-crispy!'

Charizard, Ember att*ck!

[EMBER att*ck]

ANNOUNCER 'A scorching response from Charizard'

'who grounds Electabuzz with a searing counter-att*ck.'

This one's level is higher than I thought.

Now, Charizard, fly! Use Seismic Toss!

Quick, Thunderbolt att*ck.

ANNOUNCER 'Charizard stops the Thunderbolt att*ck before it gets started!'

'Now, Charizard's got Electabuzz in a clinch'

'winding up for a Super Seismic Toss.'

[STRUGGLING]

[TRIUMPHANT]

Electabuzz is unable to battle.

[laughing]

ANNOUNCER 'A shocking turnaround'

'as Charizard combines offensive and defensive skills'

'to toss Drake's Electabuzz right out of this match!'

Good work, Electabuzz.

ANNOUNCER 'Now, challenger Ash Ketchum'

'is only one victory away from that Winner's trophy.'

'But as we've seen him do before'

'Drake has saved the best for last!'

Get ready.

[CURIOUS]

JESSIE/JAMES/MEOWTH Oh.

My last hope. I choose you!

ASH/MISTY/TRACY Who's that Pokémon?

ASH/MISTY/TRACY It's Tentacruel.

[APPEARING]

[ROAR]

Ah, I was afraid of this.

ANNOUNCER 'Drake's last Pokémon, the legendary Dragonite.'

'If Dragonite goes down, this battle is over.'

You may be my last Pokémon, Dragonite

but with you, the battle's just beginning.

[DETERMINED]

- Huh? - Huh?

Dragonite's gonna be the toughest one yet.

Let's bring it to 'em, Charizard! Flamethrower!

[FLAMETHROWER MOVE]

Dragonite, Water g*n!

[WATER g*n MOVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Dragonite not only douses Charizard's att*ck'

'but it may be dampening Ketchum's hopes'

'for the Winner's Trophy.'

Quick, Charizard, time to fly!

Dragonite, use Ice Beam.

[ICE BEAM MOVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Charizard dodges Dragonite's Ice Beam'

'with an impressive show of air force!'

After it, Dragonite.

[EXERTION]

- Huh? - Look at it go!

Dragonite moves like a jet.

[att*ck]

ANNOUNCER 'Charizard's gone into a dizzying dive'

'to avoid Dragonite's relentless att*cks!'

Charizard, look out!

[AGGRESSIVE]

Okay, now, give it your best Seismic Toss!

ANNOUNCER 'Charizard's moving in on Dragonite.'

[STARTLED]

Dragonite, use your Slam att*ck, now!

SLAM att*ck MOVE]/[PAINED]

ANNOUNCER 'And Dragonite delivers a ground-shaking Grand Slam!'

Charizard, no!

Huh?

[DETERMINED]

ANNOUNCER 'Fans, this is incredible!'

'Charizard is back on its feet.'

'Despite the fact that it's been on the receiving end'

'of Dragonite's damaging att*cks'

'this Pokémon simply refuses to give up!'

We gotta do something to end this fast.

Finish it off with Dragon Rage!

[AGREEMENT]

[DRAGON RAGE MOVE]

Fight fire with fire, Dragonite!

[DRAGON RAGE MOVE]

[coughing]

ANNOUNCER 'Both Dragon Rage att*cks hit home'

'and both Pokémon appear to be shaken.'

'This match could be over at any moment.'

[PANTING]

[WEAK]

Charizard is unable to battle.

ANNOUNCER 'Charizard is down and out!'

'That Dragon Rage drained both Pokémon'

'but Dragonite manages to hold on!'

Alright, Dragonite looks like it's dragging.

Let's go capture it.

- Sit down! - Yeah, I'm enjoyin' this.

ASH 'Return, Charizard!'

Thank you, Charizard.

You did your job.

'You wore it down just like I wanted you to.'

We're all gonna have to work as a team

to win this one, aren't we?

Now, I choose you!

[APPEARING]

Hydro Pump att*ck!

[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]

Dragonite, use your Water g*n att*ck!

[WATER g*n MOVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Dragonite tags Squirtle with a bull's-eye blast!'

'Maybe Squirtle's earlier encounter with Onix'

'weakened the Water Pokémon.'

Use your Thunderbolt, now!

[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

[STARTLED]

ANNOUNCER 'This could besayonara for Squirtle'

as Dragonite's electric att*ck sets its shell sizzling!'

This can't be.

[GROANING]

ANNOUNCER 'Squirtle's still game, and folks'

'this is one tough Turtle-Type.'

Okay! Way to go, Squirtle!

Show them you can take what they dish out.

Your Squirtle's very gutsy

but guts won't win this battle.

Go, Dragonite! Finish Squirtle off with a Body Slam, now!

Squirtle, Bubble att*ck, now!

[BUBBLE att*ck]

[PAINED]

[PAINED]

Squirtle.

Squirtle, hang on.

ANNOUNCER 'Once again, Dragonite proves'

'what a brawny battler it is.'

'Despite Squirtle's Bubble att*ck'

'it digs in and strikes back.'

[WEAK]

JUDGE 'Squirtle is unable to battle.'

[crowd cheering]

[PANTING]

Dragonite's exhausted. Let's go.

This oughta be a cinch.

Jess, bring me back some nachos.

[whimpering]

ASH 'Thanks, Squirtle.'

ANNOUNCER 'Now the challenger has just two Pokémon remaining'

'and this should be.. Hey, wait, what's that up there?'

[STARTLED]

[laughing]

JESSIE 'Prepare for trouble.'

JAMES 'Make it double.'

JESSIE To protect the world from devastation.

Team Rocket!

Ahem. To unite all peoples within our nation.

To denounce the evils of truth and love.

To extend our reach to the stars above.

- Jessie. - James.

How dare you interrupt this competition!

We aren't finished yet!

JESSIE 'Ahem, and thanks for your help, Twerp.'

What're you talking about?

You're the reason we're here.

You didn't know you were playing for our side this time, did you?

Yeah, if you ever get tired of being a Twerp

maybe we'll make you a permanent part of the team.

[WORRIED]

Dragonite. You know what to do, don't you?

[AGREEMENT]

[gasping]

[ROARING]

We needed that like a hole in the head.

We blew it.

Now, I'll never get those nachos.

JESSIE/JAMES/MEOWTH 'We're blasting off again!'

- I almost feel sorry for them. - Yeah. Almost, but not quite.

[AGREEMENT]

ANNOUNCER 'Sorry about that interruption, folks.'

'Now, let's get back to the battle.'

I choose you, Tauros!

ANNOUNCER 'Ash chooses Tauros'

'but we'll have to wait and see if it's recovered'

'from that brutal battle with Venusaur.'

I know you're tired but I really need you now. Use Take Down!

[EXERTION]

Now, fly!

DRAKE 'And use your Body Slam!'

ANNOUNCER 'Drake orders an air att*ck.'

Tauros, just stand there!

He should know Tauros doesn't stand a chance.

ANNOUNCER 'Oh, Tauros takes a direct hit'

'and I don't see how it'll survive this one, folks!'

[STRUGGLING]

Huh?

I figured that sand would act like a cushion

and help Tauros absorb that Body Slam.

Wow! Ash really knows what he's doing out there.

Yeah. He's using his head.

[ROAR]

ANNOUNCER 'The challenger's strategy works'

'and now Dragonite is hooked on those horns.'

'Tauros, send it sailing!'

[SURPRISED]

ANNOUNCER 'Dragonite's down but it's far from out!'

Dragonite, Thunder att*ck, now.

[THUNDER att*ck MOVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Tauros is stopped in its tracks'

'by a full-throttle Thunder att*ck!'

[PAINED]

JUDGE 'Tauros is unable to battle.'

ANNOUNCER 'Tauros was primed for victory'

'but even its stubborn brand of battling'

'wasn't good enough to make the grade.'

'Dragonite's taken out three of Ketchum's Pokémon in a row'

'and now both Trainers are down to their last Pokémon!'

I'm proud of you, Tauros. You did great.

[AGGRESSIVE]

I guess it's up to you and me, Pikachu.

[AGREEMENT]

Oh, I hope Ash knows what he's doing.

[OPTIMISTIC]

ANNOUNCER 'The challenger's final Pokémon is Pikachu.'

'Has it recharged its batteries after that battle with Ditto'

'or is it running too low on power to defeat Dragonite?'

Let's win it, Pikachu!

[EXCITED]

Dragonite, let's go!

[ROARING]

Pikachu, use your Agility.

[AGILITY MOVE]

Dragonite, stop that Pikachu!

[att*ck]

ANNOUNCER 'Whoa. Just a flick of its scaly tail'

'and Dragonite sends Pikachu skyward!'

Pikachu.

Pikachu, I know you can do it.

- 'Hyper Beam.' - Whoa!

ANNOUNCER 'Drake calls for Dragonite's most powerful att*ck!'

'Does Pikachu have the energy to escape Hyper Beam?'

[EXERTION]

[gasps]

Pikachu!

[HAPPY]

- Oh, no! - Ah!

ANNOUNCER 'Unbelievable!'

'Pikachu used its tail as a springboard'

'to escape the Hyper Beam!'

'Pikachu bounces back'

'but Dragonite doesn't look very bouncy.'

[HAPPY/[CONFUSED]

ANNOUNCER 'Try as it may be'

'the exhausted Dragonite can't shake Pikachu!'

'Pikachu is hanging in there for all it's worth!'

Pikachu can't hold on much longer.

Ash has to act fast.

Pikachu, Thunder att*ck.

[THUNDER att*ck MOVE]

ANNOUNCER 'Pikachu lights into Dragonite'

'with a tremendous Thunder att*ck!'

[PAINED]

[WEAK]

[ANGRY]

[PANTING]

[PANTING]

[EXHAUSTED]

The winner of this competition is Ash Ketchum!

[RELIEVED]

'The challenger wins the match!'

I'm very proud of you.

ANNOUNCER 'Ash Ketchum has beaten'

'the undefeated Orange Crew champion'

'earning himself a place of honor'

You really deserve that trophy. You're a great Pokémon Trainer.

'Cause I have great Pokémon.

[HAPPY]

[HAPPY]

Me too.

[laughing]

NARRATOR And so, with the help of his Pokémon friends

Ash wins the match, the Winner's Trophy
