ASH: Whoa, what's that?!

BROCK: That's a Hippowdon!

PACHIRISU: [SURPRISED]

ASH: Man, it's huge!

POKEDEX: Hippowdon. The Heavyweight Pokémon.

It creates an enormous tornado of sand

by blowing sand out of the holes in its body,

and its mouth is over six feet in diameter.

PACHIRISU: [HAPPY]

HIPPOWDON: [ANGRY]

PACHIRISU: [CURIOUS]

DAWN: Pachirisu, look out!

PACHIRISU: [STRUGGLING]

PACHIRISU: [PANICKED]

ASH: Come back here!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: In and up!

JESSIE: Dig it double-time before the Twerps get here!

JAMES: How do we dig a trap when the trap's trying to trap us?

JESSIE: The only thing trapping us is your subpar shoveling!

HIPPOWDON: [EXERTION]

JAMES: Some sendoff.

JESSIE: But who sent us off?!

ASH: There's Hippowdon!

JESSIE: Twerps in transit!

HIPPOWDON: [STARTLED] PACHIRISU: [PANICKED]

DAWN: Pachirisu, Discharge!

PACHIRISU: [DISCHARGE MOVE]

DAWN: Nothing!

ASH: Pikachu, use Thunderbolt. Let's go!

PIKACHU: [FOCUSED]

PIKACHU: [THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

ASH: Thunderbolt didn't do anything either!

BROCK: Hippowdon is a Ground-type Pokemon.

So Electric-type moves don't have any effect at all!

HIPPOWDON: [EXERTION]

ASH: No, not again!

DAWN: Pachirisu!

ASH: They're that way!

JESSIE: Who's that Pokémon?

JAMES: Let's see that was...

Hippowdon!

JESSIE: What a whopper! A strapping monstrosity!

MEOWTH: Extra strength too!

It threw off Pikachu's Thunderbolt like a sparkler!

JESSIE: And that sounds like a skill we could

utilize in Pikachu's capture!

JAMES: Ooh! Smiles of joy and rapture!

JESSIE: Alright!

Our two-pronged plan is comprised of

first heisting Hippowdon then Pikachu!

MEOWTH, JAMES: Woo hoo!

ASH: Oh man! That Hippowdon. Where'd it go?

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIPLUP, PIKACHU: [SURRPISED]

ASH: That it?!

HIPPOPOTAS: [CURIOUS]

PIKACHU: [CURIOUS] / [AMUSED]

HIPPOPOTAS: [HAPPY] [CURIOUS]

ASH: No. Do you think?

DAWN: Could this be the Hippopotas we met that got

separated from its herd?

ASH: Yeah it is! I'm sure of it!

BROCK: I wonder. Did it get lost again?

ASH: Hippowdon!

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIPLUP, PIKACHU, HIPPOPOTAS: [EXERTION]

ASH: Gone again!

HIPPOPOTAS: [SAD]

-BROCK: Did you hear that? -ASH: Yeah.

BROCK: If Hippopotas feels sad, maybe it's because it misses

hanging out with that Hippowdon!

ASH: Hippopotas! Is that true?

HIPPOPOTAS: [SAD]

ASH: Hey! We'll help you out!

We need to find Hippowdon just like you!

HIPPOPOTAS: [HAPPY]

JESSIE: Hippowdon? Where are you?

JAMES: Your gargantuan girth is needed to

bring us success in all that it's worth!

MEOWTH: There's a Pikachu waiting to be poached! Look!!

MEOWTH: That mega-mound's above ground!

JESSIE, JAMES: Lost and found!

JAMES: A net serve!

HIPPOWDON: [SHOCKED] / [ANGRY] [STRUGGLING]

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Game, set, and match!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: A Hippowdon catch!

HIPPOWDON: [STRUGGLING]

JESSIE, JAMES: What a load!

JAMES: We don't need a net. We need a crane!

MEOWTH: Wouldn't you know!

This would be the one time I didn't do show prep!

ASH: Team Rocket!

MEOWTH: It's the goody Twerp-shoes!

ASH: Leave Hippowdon alone!

JESSIE: Listen! Is that the voice of empty threats I hear?

JESSIE: Excuse me, can we save this treat for another time?

We're really overbooked!

ASH: We've got stuff to do too, so save it!

DAWN: Yeah, my poor Pachirisu is still trapped in that Hippowdon!

JESSIE: Oh, I just adore getting Pokémon with a prize inside!

MEOWTH: Is that another Hippowdon!?

HIPPOWDON: [STRUGGLING]

ASH: What's that?

ASH: Is that yours?

JESSIE: Nah, we're broke!

CASSIDY: A shrieking whine, a blast from the past.

BUTCH: Spinning like a Gyro Ball and moving fast!

CASSIDY: To the moon...

BUTCH: and beyond.

CASSIDY, BUTCH: What a blast!

CASSIDY: Administering justice with lightning speed!

BUTCH: Bashing the bad guys, should we feel the need!

CASSIDY: So here's a news flash from across the wire.

BUTCH: The real Team Rocket is now on fire!

CASSIDY: Cassidy!

BUTCH: And it's Butch!

SHUCKLE: [PROUD]

CASSIDY: Teaching the losers a thing or two.

BUTCH: The true Team Rocket!

CASSIDY, BUTCH: Us, not you!

JESSIE, ASH: Cassidy!!

JAMES, BROCK: And Biff!

BUTCH: I told you it's not Biff, it's Butch!

James, you're as bad as your Twerps!

DAWN: I thought one Team Rocket was bad enough.

CASSIDY: So what are you doing here

messing up the landscape Jessie?

JESSIE: Now stop stealing all of my lines!

What are you doing here?

CASSIDY: Ask Professor Bamba.

CASSIDY: Hello there?

NANBA: It's Nanba!

CASSIDY: We're here on orders from Professor Nanba!

CASSIDY: He wants to study the sand that Hippowdon sprang out.

So he sent us to capture one!

JESSIE: You tell Professor Fanboy...

CASSIDY: It's for you.

JESSIE: Oh. Hello?

NANBA: It's still Nanba!

JESSIE: All right, why didn't that loud-mouth

give us the orders instead of you?

Let us not forget the Sinnoh region is our turf!

CASSIDY: Well that's not what I hear.

Giovanni told me personally that we're his

two and only Sinnoh region reps!

JAMES: But we've been hitting

the dusty Sinnoh trail since way back!

BUTCH: Perhaps you've all forgotten just how

forgettable you fools can be.

CASSIDY: True! Tee hee!

JESSIE: Where did you get that bucket of bolts?

BUTCH: It's actually a present from Professor Kimba.

NANBA: It's Nanba!

BUTCH: It's one of Professor Nanba's inventions!

JAMES: We finance and build our own machines!

It's just not fair that a brat named Bilge gets all the PERKS!!

BUTCH: I just told you it's not Bilge, it's Butch!

ASH: Now Turtwig! Use Razor Leaf! Let's go!

Help out Hippowdon!

TURTWIG: [DETERMINED / EXERTION]

CASSIDY: We don't need Twerp interference!

HIPPOWDON: [ANGRY / EXERTION]

CASSIDY: Hootch! After them!

BUTCH: Come on! That doesn't even rhyme!

ASH: Okay guys, the only way we're going

to save Pachirisu is to get to Hippowdon

before they do, right?

DAWN: Right!

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, HIPPOPOTAS, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [EXERTION]

JESSIE: So the Twerps have teame Hokeyhyapatia huh?

MEOWTH: It's Hippopotas, melon head!

JAMES: That's being kind.

JESSIE: Zip it! We've got one job to do

and that's to bring Hippowdon into custody!

MEOWTH: That's using your melon!

JESSIE: Restoring our Team Rocket rep is just what we need!

MEOWTH: Slipping back in the Boss's sights

will put us in the limelight!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Right!

BUTCH: Signs of large life ahead! Stirring in the sand!

CASSIDY: Hippowdon will soon be ours, as will Sinnoh!

HIPPOPOTAS: [WORRIED]

ASH: Don't worry. We're going to find Hippowdon soon!

HIPPOWDON: [ANXIOUS] / [EXHAUSTED]

BROCK: That sounds like Hippowdon's call!

HIPPOPOTAS: [URGENT]

ASH: That way!

PACHIRISU: [STRUGGLING] / [PANICKED]

CASSIDY: Let's do it!

BUTCH: Capturing!

PACHIRISU: [PANICKED]

ASH: Great Hippopotas! It's working!

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [STRUGGLING]

CASSIDY: We're going down!

ASH: What the! Where'd this come from?

JESSIE: Listen up! It comes courtesy of you-know-who!

JAMES: Not like we have anything better to do!

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

MEOWTH: Booga boo!

JESSIE: Bringing chaos at a breakneck pace!

JAMES: Dashing hope, putting fear in its place!

JESSIE: A duo of Jessies sounds twice as sweet!

JAMES: Hey, I've got it too! Isn't that neat?

-JESSIE: Jessie! -JAMES: And James!

MEOWTH: Meowth, now that's a name!

JESSIE: Putting the do-gooders in their place!

JAMES: We're Team Rocket!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: In your face!

JESSIE: Pit traps are twice as nice in the sand.

Don't you think?!

JESSIE: First we dig, and then you sink!

JESSIE: But, leaving Hippowdon stuck down there would stink!

DAWN, PACHIRISU: [PANICKED]

JESSIE: So! Large load ho!

JAMES: Here we go!

HIPPOWDON: [SHOCKED]

ASH: Hippowdon!

ASH: No you don't!

CASSIDY: Try as you might, you Twerps can't avoid technology!

HIPPOWDON: [ANGRY]

ASH: You're not going to b*at us with some stupid machine, okay?

BUTCH: That's open to debate!

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, HIPPOPOTAS, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [PANICKED]
