A Secret Sphere Of Influence!

DAWN: Look, guys, up there!

ASH: Why, you crooks! You did that?

PIKACHU: [ANGRY]

MEOWTH: Well, what do you know.it's the Twerps!

JESSIE: Button it, Sunflora!

JESSIE: Keep in mind we're supposed to

be criminals with class!

JAMES: Without a smart-mouthed Sunflora!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

NARRATOR: Our heroes have arrived at Eterna City.

but to quite a surprise.

NARRATOR: as they angrily discover the Eterna Historical

Museum has been robbed in broad daylight!

JESSIE: The Adamant Orb is legendary, don't forget.

JAMES: Like us!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JENNY : Well, you won't have it for long!

BROCK: But you will!

JENNY: Stunky, ten-hut!

ASH: Wow! Eterna City's Officer Jenny's got a Stunky, huh?

POKEDEX: Stunky. The Skunk Pokémon. It protects itself by

spraying a foul-smelling liquid from its hindquarters,

which lasts for hours.

JESSIE: Please! It can't smell any worse than you Twerps!

Go, Seviper!

SEVIPER: [HAZE MOVE]

DAWN: [PAINED]

JENNY: Quick, seal the doors! We can't let them escape!

POLICE: Now everyone just calm down, please!

DAWN: Sir, we came in after the thieves were finished breaking

into the Adamant Orb's case.

ASH: If only we'd come a little sooner!

POLICE: Now, don't worry, son! Thanks to your quick reflexes,

we've sealed off the building, and they're not going anywhere!

GARDENIA: I can't believe it!

GARDENIA: The crooks were using Grass-type Pokémon, huh?

They've got some nerve!

GARDENIA: Those jerks!

ASH: Gardenia?

GARDENIA: Hey! Nice to see you!

BROCK: And you! You're like the green grass of home!

Your love of Grass-type Pokémon knocks me out every

time I think of you!

BROCK: Like Croagunk does.

CROAGUNK: [SATISFIED]

GARDENIA: That's great! I'm so glad that you found the

Enchanted Honey after all!

What better to follow that than with a mystery!

Oh, the shame! Using Grass-type Pokémon to pull

off such a heinous crime!

JENNY: Excuse me!

JENNY: I just captured suspect number one!

JENNY : Get this.he calls himself a Pokémon troubadour,

but I don't buy it at all!

ASH: Nando?

PIKACHU: [SHOCKED]

NANDO: It's been a while, has it not?

ROSELIA: [GREETING]

ASH: What are you doing here?

NANDO: I was studying Sinnoh's magnificent history here in the

museum, when suddenly the alarm bell sounded, and I found myself

surrounded by the police!

NANDO: Poor Sunflora became frightened and ran away.

NANDO: Then life took its course, as it is wont to do.

NANDO: And in the blink of an eye I find myself

standing before you!

JENNY: Stop! Sunflora wasn't frightened.you let it escape!

NANDO: But we are guilty of nothing.

JENNY: Your song is full of guilt!

GARDENIA: Hey, I know you two!

You challenged my Gym the other day!

NANDO: Yes! And I'm grateful for a fine match!

ASH: You and him?

GARDENIA: Uh huh! We had a battle the other day!

It was awesome, and I was thrilled to give him his badge!

ASH: You did?

GARDENIA: Oh yeah, I haven't had a chance to tell you!

GARDENIA: I take good care of the Eterna Gym, you see.

That's what Gym Leaders do!

ASH: Gym Leader! How cool is that?

Of course, I always knew you were really strong!

BROCK: And that's great you finally took

on a Gym battle, Nando!

NANDO: Thank you! It's my very first badge.

ROSELIA: [BATTLING]

NANDO: And, needless to say, an exciting time for me!

DAWN: Have you been in any contests yet?

NANDO: Why, I received my very first ribbon just the other day.

DAWN: Awesome! The Floaroma Contest is where I won my first!

JENNY : You stop this right now! This is serious!

JENNY : Now, as for you,

Why aren't you doing your job as Gym Leader?

GARDENIA: You see, when I get a small break sometimes,

I like to get out of the Gym for a while!

ASH: Uh.I just went over to the Eterna Gym to

challenge it before...

DAWN: Yeah, but nobody was there!

BROCK: So we decided to come here and k*ll some time until

the Gym Leader came back!

GARDENIA: Oopsie! Sorry, guys.

JENNY : All of you, stop changing the subject!

ASH: Okay, sorry! But I'm telling you, Officer Jenny,

Nando's no thief! PIKACHU: [INSISTENT]

DAWN: He's right.and besides, there were two thieves!

BROCK: Normally I agree with anything and everything you say,

Officer Jenny, but I have to agree with Ash this time!

GARDENIA: No one who loves Grass-type Pokémon

could be a crook!

JENNY : Look at this. This was taken by security! How do you

plan on explaining this?

ASH: What? Sunflora?

GARDENIA: Whoa, is that for real?

JENNY: I'm afraid this is all the evidence that I need!

WOMAN'S VOICE: Objection!

BROCK: Jenny? Whoa!

GARDENIA: Oh my! Now there are two of them!

JENNY [VIRIDIAN]: There's more here than meets the eye!

JENNY [V]: You see, all Sunflora Trainers here need to be

investigated, not just one of them!

JENNY [ETERNA]: Just where are you from, anyway?

JENNY [V]: I'm the Officer Jenny from Viridian City!

I thought I'd come visit since today's my day off.

ASH: Viridian City? That takes me back!

JENNY [E]: You have no authority here! So please just keep your

opinions to yourself!

JENNY [V]: Now relax! There must be something I can

do to help you out.

JENNY [E]: No, we're just fine! The museum has been secured,

which means all possible suspects are locked inside!

It's only a matter of time before we capture the thieves

who stole the Adamant Orb!

JENNY [V]: You sure are confident.

JENNY [E]: Enough not to let some Viridian police woman

get in my way!

DAWN: Scary, aren't they?

PIKACHU: [CAUTIOUS]

MEOWTH: Bummer! They've got us surrounded!

MEOWTH: We'll never get out of here in one piece!

JAMES: But I need to be in one piece!

JESSIE: So we fight! We punch, and then kick!

MEOWTH: Just don't kick a hole in the Adamant Orb!

JAMES: In order to receive our reward, the Adamant Orb needs to

stay in one piece more than us!

WOBBUFFET: [FRANTIC]

MIME JR.: [PROUD]

JESSIE: [RELIEVED]

JENNY [V]: It's been said that the Adamant Orb can magnify the

power of the Legendary Pokémon Dialga.

ASH: That's a Legendary Pokémon? PIKACHU: [AMAZED]

DAWN: Yeah! There was a huge statue of it in front of the

museum, wasn't there?

DAWN: Right! Dialga is the Pokémon who controls time.

DAWN: and Palkia is the Pokémon who controls space!

GARDENIA: According to legend...

GARDENIA: Dialga and Palkia formed the Sinnoh

region long ago.

GARDENIA: and there are countless ancient shrines

devoted to the two of them scattered all over Sinnoh!

GARDENIA: We know the Adamant Orb was dug up from

one of those shrines!

DAWN: I read that in a book of legends! It said the whole world

was formed by those two!

ASH: The world was formed by Pokémon?

PIKACHU: [AMAZED]

BROCK: So, if that's true, where did the Pokémon come from, then?

DAWN: Which came first.good question! Was it

the world or Pokémon...

GARDENIA: Here's what I think...

GARDENIA: By learning about Pokémon all that we can,

We're really trying to learn about ourselves.about

you and me, woman and man.

BROCK: Wow, that was beautiful poetry!

DAWN: Of course! You've been with Nando, right?

GARDENIA: Well, I am a Gym Leader!

DAWN: If the sphere's that important...

DAWN: Then we have to get it back, now!

ASH: You're right! And help Nando, too! Let's get out there

and capture the real crooks!

JENNY [V]: Sunflora's our best sh*t!

BROCK: Oh, the slings and arrows of choosing between

justice and true love!

CROAGUNK: [THREATENING]

GARDENIA: What's with Brock?

DAWN: Just bracing for a little pain!

ASH: All right! Come on out, guys!

AIPOM: [APPEARING]

STARAVIA: [APPEARING] TURTWIG: [APPEARING]

DAWN: Okay, you heard him!

BUNEARY: [APPEARING]

PACHIRISU: [APPEARING] BUIZEL: [APPEARING]

ASH: Let's split up and look for that Sunflora, okay?

PIKACHU: [CHEERING]

POLICE A: We've just received word. Gardenia's working with a

Viridian policewoman.

JENNY [E]: I told her to butt out!

JENNY [E]: We've got to get the Adamant Orb first, for the

integrity of our proud Sinnoh police force!

POLICE: Right!

NANDO: We're innocent. It's so simple.

ROSELIA: [AGREEMENT]

SUNFLORA: [CAUTIOUS]

POLICE B: It's that Sunflora!

SUNFLORA: [LEECH SEED MOVE]

POLICE C: What do you think you're doing?

POLICE B & C: [SCARED]

AIPOM: [ALERT]

SUNFLORA: [EFFORT] AIPOM: [CURIOUS]

SUNFLORA: [EFFORT] AIPOM: [EFFORT]

AIPOM: [EXCITED] SUNFLORA: [LEECH SEED MOVE]

AIPOM: [CONFUSED] AIPOM: [STRUGGLING]

SUNFLORA: [SCARED] AIPOM: [STRUGGLING]

ASH: Turtwig, Aipom!

DAWN: That's Leech Seed! It's Sunflora!

JENNY [E]: Move in now!

POLICE B: We would if we could!

POLICE B: But we're kind of tied up!

JENNY [E]: Right! I'll go myself!

JENNY [E]: I told you so!

NANDO: Sunflora was protecting itself, that's all.

ROSELIA: [AFFIRMATIVE]

SUNFLORA: [EXCITED] / [RELIEVED]

POLICE D: Nothing here either...

POLICE F: All right, let's go!

JESSIE: Would you fall a bit lighter next time?

MEOWTH: That'd be my choice!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JESSIE: Knock off the sweet talk!

JAMES: Yes dear.

SUNFLORA: [CONCERNED]

SUNFLORA: [SURPRISED]

PIPLUP: [REASSURING] PIKACHU: [REASSURING]

SUNFLORA: [RELIEVED]

JAMES: Like you're not!

JESSIE: Like you're not!

JAMES: Stop! Meowth, take that thing off!

JAMES: They're searching for a Sunflora, right?

Well, we'll just stop having one!

MEOWTH: Man, what a raw deal. It took so long to put this on!

JAMES: So what?

MEOWTH: Well, that was quick.

JESSIE: As will be this!

JAMES: With a flick of the wrist!

PIKACHU: [SHOCKED] SUNFLORA: [SURPRISED]

JESSIE: I don't think this will work at all.

JAMES: Much too obvious.

JESSIE: The look of wealth and smarts!

JAMES: I sure can play those parts!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JESSIE: Return! You don't count.

PIPLUP: [DETERMINED]

PIPLUP: [STRUGGLING]

PIKACHU: [STERN] PIPLUP: [ANGRY]

PIKACHU: [ARGUING] PIPLUP: [SAD]

SUNFLORA: [REASSURING]

JAMES: I'll hide the Adamant Orb on my person for

the look of a respectable paunch!

JESSIE: Let's go for it, paunch and all!

PIPLUP: [CONCERNED]

PIPLUP: [PECK MOVE]

PIPLUP: [DETERMINED]

MEOWTH: That Sunflora's the real deal!

JESSIE: I give. What are you doing here?

PIPLUP: [DEMANDING]

JAMES: Cacnea? CACNEA: [AFFECTIONATE]

JAMES: Off my paunch! Go ply them with Pin m*ssile!

CACNEA: [PIN m*ssile MOVE]

SUNFLORA: [PAINED] PIPLUP: [PAINED]

PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

PIKACHU: [FRANTIC] PIKACHU: [EFFORT]

PIKACHU: [CONFUSED]

ASH: Pikachu, what's up? PIKACHU: [CONCERNED]

JESSIE: Long as our eyes are closed, our look of wealth and

smarts won't be betrayed by the awful truth.

MEOWTH: Like glue!

JESSIE: Quite a lot of museum lovers here today, aren't there?

PIPLUP: [DETERMINED] SUNFLORA: [DETERMINED]

DAWN: Piplup?

PIPLUP: [DETERMINED] DAWN: What is it?

GARDENIA: Whoa! That's Nando's Sunflora, I'm sure of it!

PIPLUP: [ACCUSATORY]

SUNFLORA: [att*ck]

GARDENIA: And now we know where the Adamant Orb went.

MEOWTH: You creamed my costume!

WOBBUFFET: [PROUD]

JESSIE: Wobbuffet for the save!

ASH: Team Rocket?

JAMES: Excuse me! Ditching a diamond for a dumb disguise

makes you dumber than it!

MEOWTH: Tough! It's what I do best!

JESSIE: Not for long!

GARDENIA: Nando's Sunflora's no criminal!

ASH: Yeah, but Team Rocket's Meowth sure is!

JESSIE: Are those Twerp twits I hear?

JAMES: That whining can't fool my ear!

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

MEOWTH: In your ear!

JESSIE: Bringing chaos at a breakneck pace!

JAMES: Dashing hope, 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 James!

MEOWTH: Meowth.that's a name!

JESSIE: Putting the do-gooders in their place!

- JAMES: Team Rocket! - JESSIE: We're in your face!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JENNY [V]: That's not the same motto from Viridian City.

JESSIE: Hey, stop living in the past!

JAMES: Sometimes you've gotta let go!

MEOWTH: Sometimes you gotta shut up.

ASH: Hey, you guys, give back the Adamant Orb!

JENNY [V]: You have no idea of its historical worth!

JESSIE: Save the history for school. Give me cash!

JAMES: We were generously commissioned by a fashionably

dressed fan of Team Rocket's to steal it for his

collection of rocks!

JENNY [V]: Who'd do that?

ASH: That's it.don't let them get away!

PIKACHU: [THREATENING] BUNEARY: [THREATENING]

CROAGUNK: [CROAK]

GARDENIA: Okay, Turtwig, you too!

TURTWIG [G]: [APPEARING] TURTWIG [BOTH]: [DETERMINED]

JAMES: Well then, we'll fight grass with grass!

Carnivine, Cacnea, go!

JAMES: No! [AFFECTIONATE]

GARDENIA: Wow! They're awesome! I love them!

DAWN: Love them? Battle them!

JESSIE: Let them have their fun. This is mine!

ASH: No you don't!

GARDENIA: You don't like Grass types, do you?

JESSIE: Diamonds are a girl's best friend.

DAWN: What do we do now?

BROCK: We can't att*ck them directly!

JENNY [V]: Wish we could call the Eterna City Jenny.

JENNY [E]: You just did!

STUNKY: [EFFORT]

AIPOM: [SURPRISED]

JENNY [E]: I was completely wrong about you.

I hope you'll forgive me!

MEOWTH: I don't care if there's a hundred Jennys!

JAMES: One blast from you, and there'll be nothing but powdered

Adamant Orb far and near!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JENNY [E]: I don't think you've factored in my Stunky!

JENNY [E]: Ready? STUNKY: [AFFIRMATIVE]

JESSIE: We'll deal with any stink you can raise!

En garde, Wobbuffet!

WOBBUFFET: [CONFIDENT]

JENNY [E]: Let's go!

STUNKY: [FOCUSED]

WOBBUFFET: [CONFIDENT]

JAMES: My nose doesn't deserve this...

MEOWTH: It's worse than you!

JESSIE: I'm throwing my hands up in disgust!

JESSIE: Uh oh!

ASH: The Adamant Orb! PIPLUP: [CONCERNED]

GARDENIA: Leaf Storm, Turtwig.now!

TURTWIG [G]: [LEAF STORM MOVE]

GARDENIA: Bad smell, but great catch!

TURTWIG [G]: [PLEASED]

ASH: If Leaf Storm can do all that, Gardenia's one

serious Gym Leader! PIKACHU: [AMAZED]

JESSIE: Why don't you fling this back at them, Wobbuffet?

WOBBUFFET: [OBJECTING]

JENNY [E]: Because that wasn't a Pokémon move! It's a defense

tactic that Stunky has, and it lasts for long hours!

ASH: Man, that's staying power! PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

DAWN: That's a whole day and night!

BROCK: What a treat!

JENNY [E]: All right! Give up!

JENNY [V]: It's over.

JAMES: I'm afraid this takes B.O. to a whole new level.

- MEOWTH: Well, I'm booking! - JESSIE: Wait for me!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

ASH: Team Rocket, come back!

MEOWTH: What?

JESSIE: We're blasting off again!

ASH: They're gone! PIKACHU: [SURPRISED]

DAWN: Don't forget! Nothing's more valuable

than a bath with soap!

JENNY [E]: You know.we may have overdone it

a little bit this time! STUNKY: [SHEEPISH]

JENNY [V]: This time? Overdoing it is something that

all Jennys do very well!

BROCK: That's more like it.

Beautiful Jennys, best of friends.

JENNY [E]: Nando, thank you for all your help!

STUNKY: [GRATEFUL]

NANDO: You're welcome! My pleasure.

I'm just glad the Adamant Orb is safe.

Eterna City is my favorite!

A city that unites past and present!

ASH: Nando? So are the legends of Dialga and

Palkia really true?

PIKACHU: [CURIOUS]

NANDO: In the beginning, there was only a churning

turmoil of chaos.

NANDO: And at the heart of the chaos,

where all things become one, came the One!

NANDO: And from itself, the Original One formed two beings.

NANDO: Time began to spin, and space began to expand.

Then, the Original One separated into three more beings...

Matter was born by way of communion between the first two.

and spirit was born by way of communion

between the next three.

Our world was formed,

and the Original One fell into a deep sleep.

This is a legend that has been handed down since ancient times.

ASH: Sorry, but I don't get it!

DAWN: Me neither! It's all so mysterious!

NANDO: Have patience, Dawn, and one day you will fully

understand that all people are walking side by side toward

their dreams, together with the world's Pokémon.

It's bright young ones like you that have shown me this.

DAWN: I get that!

GARDENIA: Makes sense to me!

ASH: Me, too!

GARDENIA: Sorry about today. Why don't you get your Pokémon ready

and then come see me? I will be there.

ASH: Okay and then you and I can get that second badge, right?

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

NARRATOR: Working with two Officer Jennys, our heroes

helped return an important treasure to the Sinnoh museum

and the world! Now Ash's Eterna City battle challenge awaits!

JENNY [V]: I still wonder who commissioned Team Rocket to

steal the Adamant Orb. I guess.as long as that question

remains unanswered, this case is still open!

BROCK: Hey, hold on!

BROCK: What about other Team Rocket members?

JENNY [E]: Yes that could be.

JENNY [E]: or maybe a Pokémon Hunter!

JENNY [V]: Maybe.

JENNY [V]: or maybe something worse!

TEAM GALACTIC GRUNT [MALE]: Well, those three

were totally useless.

TEAM GALACTIC GRUNT [FEMALE]: We'll get the

Adamant Orb next time...
