STARLY: [DETERMINED]

ASH: Starly, Aerial Ace, go!

STARLY: [AFFIRMATIVE] STARLY: [AERIAL ACE MOVE]

BROCK: Starly's sure coming in fast!

ASH: Quick, Starly, pull up!

STARLY: [EFFORT]

ASH: Yeah! One more time!

NARRATOR: As our heroes continue their journey with eyes focused

on Ash's first Sinnoh League Gym battle, Ash and his Starly

are in the middle of some intensive special training!

STARLY: [AERIAL ACE MOVE]

ASH: I know we'll hit it this time!

DAWN: Go, Starly!

STARLY: [FRANTIC] ASH: [SHOCKED]

STARLY: [IMPACT]

STARLY: [GROAN]

ASH: Oh man, Starly, are you okay?

PIKACHU: [WORRIED]

BROCK: Looks like an injured leg to me!

BROCK: Don't worry it doesn't look like it's serious...

BROCK: A little bit of Potion and a bandage,

and Starly will be as good as new!

ASH: That's a relief

ASH: Starly's first Aerial Ace messed up pretty bad,

but that second time was a lot better!

ASH: All we have to do is keep practicing,

and you'll be awesome!

STARLY: [HAPPY]

BROCK: Starly, you're all set! How's it feel?

STARLY: [CHEERFUL]

PIKACHU: [ALERT]

ASH: What's that?

- ROSEBAY: Well, hi there! - DAWN: Hito you too...

ASH: Hey, what asurprise!

PIKACHU: [SHEEPISH]

ROSEBAY: Very nice to meet you way out here.

ASH: Well, my name's Ash! And this is Pikachu!

PIKACHU: [GREETING]

DAWN: Yeah, and my name's Dawn!

ROSEBAY: They call me Rosebay, and I'm the...

BROCK: The most beautiful flower that can bloom

in this beautiful forest!

Turning the landscape into a work of art!

BROCK: I'm Brock! Now I know why I'm here!

Why destiny led me to this forest!

My whole life was in preparation for this magic moment

BROCK: The moment when I would find you by my side!

CROAGUNK: [POISON JAB MOVE]

BROCK: Course there are two sides to everything!

ROSEBAY: My work is to observe and keep track of the numerous

Pokémon that are living out here in the forest!

And that's exactly what I was doing when you came by!

ASH: Wow! That sounds like fun!

DAWN: But I hope us being here isn't getting in your way.

ROSEBAY: No! As a matter of fact, if you're interested,

you could watch the bird Pokémon along with me!

ASH: Man, I'd sure like to! PIKACHU: [CHEERFUL]

DAWN: Me, too! Sounds great!

BROCK: I'd love to watch you watching them.

DAWN: How does Brock do that?

PIKACHU: [SHEEPISH]

ROSEBAY: There's a large colony of Swablu living in the forest.

Their nest is over there!

ASH: Colony?

ROSEBAY: A colony refers to the different types of bird Pokémon

who live separately because of species!

ASH: Wow, I see the nest!

DAWN: Ooh, can you let me try those, too?

ASH: Go ahead!

DAWN: I see it, but where are the Swablu?

BROCK: Yeah, it's empty!

ASH: Something wrong, Rosebay?

PIKACHU: [QUESTIONING]

ROSEBAY: Come on! We need to go find some higher ground!

ROSEBAY: This is weird. The Swablu should have returned home

to their colony by this time. Something's very wrong!

ASH: [SURPRISED]

ASH: Whoa, what do you mean, Rosebay?

ROSEBAY: Okay. Recently, the number of Pokémon living

in this area has dropped by a huge number!

And not just Swablu

it's been the same with many other colonies as well!

DAWN: And you don't know the reason this is going on?

ROSEBAY: I'm working hard trying to find out why,

but this forest is a big place!

ASH: Then you should let all of us help out with your work!

If Pokémon need help, we want to be there!

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

DAWN: Of course! Not only can we help them,

we can learnsomething, too!

- ROSEBAY: Wow, you mean it? - ASH: Sure!

ROSEBAY: That's great! I can use the help!

ROSEBAY: This part of the forest contains

a colony of Hoothoot.

ASH: Man, I don't see any.

BROCK: Me neitheror hear any!

STARLY: [CALLING]

ASH: Starly, you able to find anything?

STARLY: [NEGATIVE RESPONSE]

ASH: Gotcha. So is your leg feeling any better?

STARLY: [AFFIRMATIVE] ASH: That's great!

Does that mean you could take one more look around?

STARLY: [AFFIRMATIVE]

STARLY: [FOCUSED]

ASH: Go for it!

PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

SWELLOW GROUP: [SHOCKED]

SWELLOW GROUP: [IMPACT]

SWELLOW GROUP: [SCARED]

MEOWTH: Bingo!

MEOWTH: Another pile of primo Pokémon in the bag!

JAMES: And since every last bird Pokémon has to traverse

the terrain of this valley to get where they're going,

it's the perfect place for us to set up shop!

MEOWTH: Building our Team Rocket base here was nothing

less than a stroke of genius!

JAMES: We open up to these featherbrains,

and they flock to our door!

JESSIE: A twist on a two-for-one sale. Brilliant!

JAMES: With such a surplus of Pokémon on tap,

we could think about a little gift for you-know-who.

MEOWTH: If you're talking about bringing this bunch

of beaks to the Boss, you're speaking my language!

MEOWTH: Think of it! One dull stinking morning he'll say:

MEOWTH: Nuts! I'd give a million bucks just to do something

exciting and new!

MEOWTH: How cool it would be if I could spread my wings

and taketo the sky like a plane!

BIRD POKEMON: [CALLING]

MEOWTH: Wow!

JAMES: Talk about a spin on the same-old same-old

of lousy living.

MEOWTH: Then.

MEOWTH: Bravo! This bird Pokémon gift from Meowth and friends

has given me a new lease on life!

MEOWTH: And this, when you combine it with the fact that

those generous guys have also given me my first secret base in

the Sinnoh region, is cause for me to give them all as much

dough as their crafty claws can carry!

JESSIE: Winning is what we're about!

JAMES: Bases loaded, no one's out!

JESSIE: It's a grand slam!

WOBBUFFET: [AGREEMENT]

BIRD POKEMON: [WEAK]

FEAROW: [ANGRY]

MEOWTH: The only way your beak could bust those bars

is if it was made out of metal!

MEOWTH: Once I get you guys over to the Boss,

you're gonna be busy flying him all over,

and we're going to be swimming in dough!

ASH: Man, I hope Starly's okay

PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

DAWN: Starly's been gone a really long time.

ASH: I shouldn't have sent Starly out.

Not after getting hurt.

BROCK: It wasn't a bad injury, so I wouldn't worry.

ASH: But it's taking Starly so long,

something bad must've happened!

ROSEBAY: I think I've figured out what's going on!

ROSEBAY: That's called the Valley Path, and all the bird

Pokémon that fly use it!

ASH: We'd better go take a look. Let's hurry!

Starly may be insome kind of trouble down there!

ROSEBAY: You may be right, Ash. Let's go!

ASH: We're coming, Starly now!

STARLY: [QUESTIONING]

HOOTHOOT: [EXPLAINING]

JESSIE: Meowth, are the natives restless?

MEOWTH: They ain't too thrilled, but they're okay!

As long as we keep them in those cages,

they ain't going nowhere fast!

JAMES: Guess we should be getting our gift

to the Boss soon!

JESSIE: Yes, you're right. Now, Meowth,

be a love and take careof it, capisce?

MEOWTH: Well I ain't doing nothing without a vote!

JESSIE: All righty! Go! It's rock, paper, scissors,

and sh**t!

MEOWTH: You got more fingers than me!

MEOWTH: What are you mugs gonna do?

JESSIE: Research!

JESSIE: In the ways of the rays!

MEOWTH: Why do I even ask?

ROSEBAY: Who are they?

ASH: They're called Team Rocket.

PIDGEOT: [STRUGGLING]

ROSEBAY: They caught that Pidgeot!

ASH: Quick, Pikachu! That Pidgeot needs help!

PIKACHU: [DETERMINED] PIKACHU: [PANTING]

PIKACHU: [EFFORT]

ROSEBAY: Thank you so much!

PIKACHU: [PLEASED] PIDGEOT: [EFFORT]

ROSEBAY: You're gonna be fine!

PIDGEOT: [HAPPY]

BROCK: So Team Rocket's doing this!

That's where the bird Pokémon went!

ROSEBAY: What kind of people are they?

ASH: The kind that would steal my Starly!

ASH: Pikachu, go with Pidgeot into the forest and round up all

the Pokémon that you can!

If we can get enough of them, we can rip down that net!

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

ASH: I'm counting on you!

ASH: Come on, guys!

Let's go save the captured Pokémon!

BROCK: Right!

CARNIVINE: [THREATENING]

MEOWTH: You're a mean green guarding machine!

MEOWTH: Now, you lugstime to make a rich guy

and a Meowth very happy!

BIRD POKEMON: [NERVOUS]

SWABLU: [SCARED] / [SHOCKED]

MEOWTH: Great! Now this is my kind of big-bucks ring toss!

MEOWTH: All right, no trouble and no one gets hurt!

We're taking a flight to Bossland!

HOOTHOOT: [ANGRY]

HOOTHOOT: [FOCUSED]

MEOWTH: Okay, maybe I was a little hasty barking orders

like that, so here's the deal. Your winged wish is my command.

STARLY: [INSISTENT]

MEOWTH: You wanna fly, fly. Whee.

STARLY: [INSISTENT]

MEOWTH: Sure, why not.

Okay, troops, time to hit the wild blue yonder.

BIRD POKEMON: [EXCITED]

STARLY: [INSISTENT]

MEOWTH: No big deal. Just dig a hole straight up,

and you guys are out of here.

FEAROW []: [DETERMINED]

- ROSEBAY: There they are! - BROCK: Let's go!

FEAROW []: [EFFORT]

MEOWTH: Sure. Glad to help, guys.

MEOWTH: I've been meaning to get some more exercise anyway.

SWABLU [MANY]: [EFFORT]

MEOWTH: Good for the upper body.

ROSEBAY: This is some deep hole!

ASH: Thing is where is everybody?

FEAROW: [EFFORT]

SWABLU: [EFFORT]

ASH: Starly!

ASH: What are they doing down here?

JAMES: Sounds like a small air force.

PIKACHU: [COMMANDING] BIRD POKEMON: [att*ck]

ASH: It's Pikachu!

ASH: Yeah! Great going!

JESSIE: Nobody ruins my suntan and then gets away with it!

JESSIE: Where is Meowth?

NATU [MANY]: [DETERMINED] STARLY: [EXCITED]

STARLY: [ENCOURAGING] NATU: [FAREWELL]

MEOWTH: And have a nice day.

STARLY: [EXCITED]

HOOTHOOT: [THREATENING]

MEOWTH: No way, I know my place. If I were to lam out of here,

the spell would be broken,

and you guys would all end up as droppings.

STARLY: [INSISTENT]

MEOWTH: My thanks is in knowing I was able to free you Pokémon

from a life of Bossful servitude.

STARLY: [DRAMATIC]

MEOWTH: No, I'll get out of here somehow. You guys go first.

HOOTHOOT: [AGREEMENT] HOOTHOOT: [FAREWELL]

MEOWTH: You have a nice day, too.

STARLY: [HOPEFUL]

MEOWTH: Yeah, maybe someday our paths will cross again.

MEOWTH: Hey! Where did everybody go,

and what the heck am I doing already?!

MEOWTH: You! You did it! You let them escape,

and you're gonna pay!

MEOWTH: Cacnea, Seviper, and Carnivine! Emergency action!

SEVIPER: [ANGRY] CARNIVINE: [ANGRY]

STARLY: [DEFIANT]

MEOWTH: A little late for that double talk!

ASH: There's Starly! STARLY: [ALERT]

MEOWTH: And there's Twerp!

ASH: It's so great to find you!

DAWN: But where are the rest of the Pokémon?

BROCK: They must have escaped through that tunnel!

ASH: And now it's your turn to escape!

DAWN: What's that?

JESSIE: It's time to shake up those trouble-making Twerps!

PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

MEOWTH: Yipes! Wait! You're not supposed to relocate without me!

ROSEBAY: Whoa, what's that?

MEOWTH: We call this machine our You Really Can Take It With You,

Can't You? Mark !

BROCK: Wow took a while to get right

MEOWTH: Now you're gonna see it was time well spent!

MEOWTH: [EFFORT]

BIRD POKEMON: [att*ck]

JESSIE: We're floundering in a flock of feathers!

MEOWTH: Well, here we are!

JAMES: What in the name of the Boss did you do with the Pokémon

we previously pilfered?

MEOWTH: Okay, the truth is,

I let them all out 'cause I gothypnotized

by a Hoothoot and that was that!

JAMES: What?!

JESSIE: You're gonna have to make amends!

Go and get them all! Pronto!

JESSIE: All right, featherbrains! Time to clean up

Meowth's mess and put you back behind bars

where you yahoos belong!

Giovanni's waiting for you, and I'm waiting for

Giovanni's generous gift of gobs of green!

PIKACHU: [WORRIED]

ASH: Quick, Pikachu, use Thunderbolt, let's go!

PIKACHU: [THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

JESSIE: Zap all you want! We love the look of real wood!

JAMES: And how it keeps out Twerps!

JESSIE: But you're not insulated from us!

ROSEBAY: They sure are loud.

MEOWTH: Man, what was I thinking?

I guess now we could make ourselves a big campfire.

JAMES: And it's biodegradable!

JESSIE: Will you two zip it?

ASH: Pikachu! Are you okay?

ROSEBAY: Ash, I think everybody's okay!

JESSIE: Not for long, losers! BROCK: [SURPRISED]

MEOWTH: The bird Pokémon belong to us!

ASH: Where did you hear that? PIKACHU: [DEFIANT]

JESSIE: Listen, is that a Twerp rumor mill I hear?

JAMES: It shrieks to me, loud and clear!

- JESSIE: On the wind. - JAMES: Past the stars

MEOWTH: In your ear!

JESSIE: We're bringing real crisis at a breakneck pace!

JAMES: Dashing hope, and putting fear in its place!

JESSIE: A rose by any other name's just as sweet.

JAMES: When everything's worse, our work is complete!

JESSIE: Jessie!

JAMES: And it's James!

MEOWTH: Meowth, now that's a name!

JESSIE: Putting the do-gooders in their place

DUSTOX: [GUST MOVE] BONSLY: [CRYING] / [ANGRY]

BONSLY: [att*ck]

ASH: Whoa, what's that?

DAWN: I think Bonsly just did Gust!

BROCK: That can only mean one thing!

Bonsly knows how to use Mimic!

ROSEBAY: What's Mimic?

BROCK: A move where you duplicate

your opponent's att*ck!

JESSIE: We're blasting off again!

WOBBUFFET: [ANNOYED]

ASH: Starly, you were awesome!

ASH: Uh-oh I mean Staravia!

DAWN: I've got to see this!
