and this time heading for Pastoria City
and Ash's fourth Sinnoh Gym battle!
ASH: Now! Ready, Gligar? Let's go!
GLIGAR: [ENTHUSIASTIC]
ASH: Yeah, just like that!
GLIGAR: [EXCITED]
ASH: Now give me a right turn!
GLIGAR: [AFFIRMATIVE]
ASH: Hey, that's the wrong way!
GLIGAR: [PANICKED]
ASH: Gligar, look out!
On a road, far from home,
you don't have to feel alone.
Brave and strong,
together we will be.
It's our destiny!
We will be heroes,
We can change the world if we try!
I go where you go,
Forever friends, you and I!
We will be heroes!
Battle Dimension Pokémon!
GLIGAR: [PANICKED]
ASH: You're going to crash!
DAWN, BUNEARY: [ALARMED]
GLIGAR: [PAINED]
ASH: Oh man, Gligar, are you okay?
GLIGAR: [AFFIRMATIVE]
DAWN: Ash Ketchum! ASH, GLIGAR: [SURPRISED]
DAWN: That was awfully dangerous!
ASH: Sorry, but I guess Gligar doesn't glide too well.
DAWN: Oh, really.
ASH: Uh, hey! Dawn, are you looking at that magazine again?
BROCK: Yeah, what's that?
DAWN: It's called Poké Chic!
Dressing your Pokémon in the latest fashions
is all the rage in Sinnoh!
BROCK: Oh. isn't that interesting?
DAWN: See? Aren't they adorable?
BUNEARY: [EXCITED]
DAWN: You like that one?
DAWN: And here's Buneary's favorite!
PIKACHU: [EMBARRASSED]
ASH: You're not interested in this, are you, Pikachu?
PIKACHU: [DISMISSIVE] DAWN: I designed a vest!
I'll show you! Here, hold on. ta-da!
ASH: Hey, wow, nice work, Dawn!
PIKACHU: [IMPRESSED] DAWN: To be honest,
my mom actually made it and then sent it to us!
ASH: Oh. PIKACHU: [UNCOMFORTABLE]
DAWN: Give me a break!
After all, I'm the one who designed it.
BUNEARY: [EXCITED]
BUNEARY: [SURPRISED]
DAWN: A perfect fit!
BUNEARY: [PLEASED] HAPPINY: [IMPRESSED]
BROCK: That looks really good on you!
ASH: It sure does!
BUNEARY: [PLEASED] / [EXPECTANT]
PIKACHU: [IMPRESSED] BUNEARY: [BASHFUL] / [SURPRISED]
DAWN: Buneary? Hey, what's wrong?
BUNEARY: [FOCUSED]
CHINGLING B: [HAPPY]
ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU, BUNEARY: [SURPRISED]
CHINGLING B: [CURIOUS]
BROCK: It's a Chingling!
DAWN: A Chingling, huh?
POKEDEX: Chingling. The Bell Pokémon.
It makes sounds by vibrating an orb in the back of its throat,
and it moves by hopping.
CHINGLING B, BUNEARY: [AFFECTIONATE][STARTLED]
CHINGLING B, PIKACHU: [AFFECTIONATE][STARTLED]
DAWN: That's one happy Pokémon!
CHINGLING B, ASH: [AFFECTIONATE]
DAWN: You sure like everybody, don't you?
ASH: That's for sure!
ASH: Aww, come on! I know you like me!
GLIGAR: [AFFECTIONATE] GLIGAR: [DAZED]
ASH: Gligar, return!
FRANCESCA: There you are!
ASH, BROCK, PIKACHU, HAPPINY: [SURPRISED]
FRANCESCA: Now, Chingling, what in the world
are you doing out here?
FRANCESCA: I told you not to go off alone!
ASH: I guess that means Chingling's your Pokémon, huh?
FRANCESCA: That's right! My name is Francesca!
ASH: Hi there. My name is Ash!
DAWN: Hello! And my name is Dawn!
BROCK: Hello! Please call me Brock!
BROCK: Francesca! A lovely name,
only to be surpassed by your lovely being,
both inside and out! My heart is ringing like a bell!
BROCK: Ding-dong!
BROCK: Sorry. I'm rung out.
ASH, DAWN, FRANCESCA, PIKACHU, BUNEARY, CHINGLING: [SURPRISED]
DAWN: Wow, your Chingling is so adorable!
FRANCESCA: Thank you, though to be honest,
it's a little spoiled. Will you please cut it out?
ASH: It's great your Chingling's so happy!
FRANCESCA: Well, I agree with you, up to a point!
FRANCESCA: The thing is, I'm a Pokémon magician.
ASH: Whoa, a Pokémon magician?
FRANCESCA: All right then!
The Pokémon Magic Show is about to begin!
ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU, BUNEARY, PIPLUP: [EXCITED]
FRANCESCA: Ta-da! CHINGLING B: [PROUD]
ASH, BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU, BUNEARY, PIPLUP: [DELIGHTED]
CHINGLING B: [HAPPY]
CHINGLING A: [PROUD]
DAWN: Hey, now there are two cute Chingling!
CHINGLING A, CHINGLING B: [HAPPY]
FRANCESCA: Are you sure?
CHINGLING C: [PROUD]
ASH: Wow, now there are three Chingling!
FRANCESCA: Ready?
CHINGLING: [SINGING]
DAWN: They're in harmony!
BROCK: And I'm in harmony. with you!
CHINGLING: [SINGING]
PIDGEY: [EXCITED]
ASH: Wow! A Pidgey!
PIDGEY: [HAPPY]
CHINGLING GROUP: [SINGING]
BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU, BUNEARY, PIPLUP: [THRILLED]
ASH: Those three are great!
FRANCESCA: We love doing our little act everywhere
for children of all ages!
BROCK: I'm sure they love it as I do you!
DAWN: Yeah, it's awesome! Isn't that right, Buneary?
BUNEARY: [EXCITED]
FRANCESCA: And now, for my next trick...
CHINGLING: [SINGING]
CHINGLING B: [PLAYFUL]
FRANCESCA: Oh no! You ruined it!
CHINGLING B: [AFFECTIONATE]
FRANCESCA: See, this little Chingling means well,
but it's always messing up the act by jumping into my arms
right in the middle of our magic show!
CHINGLING B: [AFFECTIONATE]
BROCK: I can see how that would be a big problem!
MEOWTH: That's the greatest Poké-show on earth!
JESSIE: Well, if you'd stop blathering,
you'd realize that tablecloth's the reason!
And our reason for stealing it and making Pokémon appear!
JESSIE: Here I am a grown woman
and I've never heard of an enchanted tablecloth.
How could I be so clueless?
JAMES: I'm not even going there, but it's called magic.
MEOWTH: A trick! Phony!
JESSIE: Now you tell me!
MEOWTH: Hold on! What about those singing Chingling?
JAMES: Now they were legit!
MEOWTH: And if we were to give those
crooning cutie-pies to the Boss.
JAMES: My day won't be a total loss.
MEOWTH: Picture this! It's rise-and-shine time!
But who needs an alarm when
the Boss can get sung out of sleeping?
CHINGLING: [SINGING]
MEOWTH: With that wake-up call, guess what he'll say next?
MEOWTH: Ahh! Now every morning's a great morning!
MEOWTH: And when it's lunchtime. look out!
CHINGLING: [SINGING]
MEOWTH: Speech, Boss, speech!
MEOWTH: Nothing goes better with a good meal
than some delicious three-part harmony!
MEOWTH: But wait! There's more!
MEOWTH: I must think of something to express my
gratitude to that amazing Meowth and his friends in a big way!
MEOWTH, JAMES, JESSIE: Soon we're gonna be,
we're gonna be, we're gonna be rich!
MEOWTH: Those Chingling ain't the only ones who can wail!
CHINGLING B, BUNEARY: [AFFECTIONATE][UNCOMFORTABLE]
FRANCESCA: Chingling, can't you give it a rest?
I'm just about at my wit's end
with this Chingling's constant clinging!
ASH: You know, if you put this Chingling in a Pokémon battle,
that might just do the trick.
BROCK: Excellent! Pokémon do mature by battling,
so that's a great idea!
FRANCESCA: A Pokémon battle? I've never been in one before.
ASH: You just leave it to us,
and we'll show you how it's done!
DAWN: Buneary, ready to go?
BUNEARY: [EAGER] PIPLUP: [EXCITED]
ASH: Okay! Gligar, I choose you!
GLIGAR: [APPEARING]
ASH: Okay, Gligar, look sharp!
GLIGAR: [CONFIDENT]
FRANCESCA: Chingling, those nice people
are having a Pokémon battle,
so pay attention!
CHINGLING B: [AFFIRMATIVE]
BROCK: All right, begin!
DAWN: Time to get moving, Buneary!
Let's start with Dizzy Punch!
BUNEARY: [DIZZY PUNCH MOVE] GLIGAR: [EXPECTANT]
ASH: All right, dodge it, Gligar!
GLIGAR: [EFFORT]
ASH: Great! Now use X-Scissor!
GLIGAR: [X-SCISSOR MOVE] BUNEARY: [PAINED]
DAWN: Buneary, Bounce, let's go!
BUNEARY: [BOUNCE MOVE] GLIGAR: [PAINED]
FRANCESCA: Oh my! They're so powerful!
ASH: Use Sand Attacknow!
GLIGAR: [SAND att*ck MOVE]
BUNEARY: [SURPRISED] / [OUTRAGED]
DAWN: No fair! Just look at what you two
have done to Buneary's new vest!
ASH: Come on, Dawn, it was just a normal old Sand att*ck.
DAWN: From now on, let's take that off before battling, okay?
BUNEARY: [PLEASED]
ASH: Good one! The last thing you need to worry about
in a battle is ruining your clothes.
DAWN: Okay, let's show them a trick or two.
Ice Beam, let's go!
BUNEARY: [ICE BEAM MOVE]
ASH: Gligar, dodge!
GLIGAR: [PAINED]

GLIGAR: [REASSURING]

GLIGAR: [STEEL WING MOVE]
BUNEARY: [PAINED]
BROCK: Stop! That's it!
Now that both sides have been able to show some great att*cks.
ASH: Right! Gligar, you showed them all some good stuff!
GLIGAR: [PROUD]
DAWN: And your Ice Beam was terrific, just like always!
BUNEARY: [PROUD]
FRANCESCA: So, Chingling, do you want to give it a try?
CHINGLING B: [EXCITED]
ASH: Now, Turtwig, I choose you!
TURTWIG: [APPEARING]
ASH: Okay, what we're doing is
teaching that Chingling how to battle!
TURTWIG: [EXCITED]
FRANCESCA: Now. if I remember things correctly,
Chingling can use Confusion, and Astonish, and Hidden Power, too!
BROCK: All right! Begin!
FRANCESCA: Here we go!
CHINGLING B: [EXUBERANT]
TURTWIG: [SURPRISED] CHINGLING B: [AFFECTIONATE]
TURTWIG: [AMUSED]
FRANCESCA: Come on, stop fooling around!
ASH: Let's take it from the top.
FRANCESCA: Hear that? Chingling, let's go! Astonish!
CHINGLING B: [CONFUSED]
FRANCESCA: Chingling? Come on! Just use your moves!
DAWN: You can do it, Chingling. I know you can!
CHINGLING B: [QUESTIONING]
ASH: Okay, then we'll start! Turtwig, use Razor Leaf!
TURTWIG: [RAZOR LEAF MOVE]
CHINGLING B: [PAINED]
ASH: Sorry. A little rough.
DAWN: Ash and Turtwig, I call foul!
FRANCESCA: Oh dear. Chingling, no!
ASH, DAWN, BUNEARY, TURTWIG: [CONCERNED]
BROCK, FRANCESCA, DAWN, ASH, PIKACHU, TURTWIG: [SURPRISED]
FRANCESCA: What's this hole doing here?
JESSIE: Excuse me,
would you like some cheese with that whine?
JAMES: That moaning of yours is way over the line!
-JESSIE: On the wind! -JAMES: Past the stars!
MEOWTH: 'Least I feel fine!
JESSIE: Bringing chaos at a breakneck pace!
JAMES: Dashing all 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: James!
MEOWTH: Meowth's the name!
JESSIE: Putting the do-gooders in their place!
JAMES: Yes, we're Team Rocket!
JAMES: We're Team Rocket.
JESSIE: We're Team Rocket.
MEOWTH: We're Team Rocket.
JAMES, JESSIE, MEOWTH: .and we're in your face! Yeah!
JESSIE: You see? Chingling are not the only ones with talent!
FRANCESCA: So, what's your point?
DAWN: Yeah! You stink! Francesca, let's go!
JAMES: Casting off!
JESSIE: Reel 'er in!
FRANCESCA: Oh no! They've got my Chingling!
MEOWTH: We're not so bad. We only took one!
ASH: That's one too many! Quick, Turtwig, Razor Leaf!
TURTWIG: [RAZOR LEAF MOVE]
JAMES: This net's thicker than your heads!
DAWN: Now, Buneary! Ice Beam!
BUNEARY: [ICE BEAM MOVE]
CHINGLING B: [SCARED]
JAMES: We've hit an icy patch! Our net's gotten brain-freeze!
BROCK: Happiny, catch Chingling!

CHINGLING B: [PLEASED]
ASH, CHINGLING B: [AFFECTIONATE]
FRANCESCA: Oh dear!
FRANCESCA: Here we go! CHINGLING: [SINGING]
DAWN: Wow, they sound beautiful!
BUNEARY: [ENTHRALLED]
CHINGLING B: [AFFECTIONATE]
PIKACHU, BUNEARY, PIPLUP: [SURPRISED]
FRANCESCA: Chingling, stop! You can't do this anymore!
Think of the children waiting to see us in the next town!
Oh dear.
FRANCESCA: How are we going to go on? What's this?
DAWN: Hold on. One, two, three, and four?
ASH: Excuse me,
did you have four Chingling before, Francesca?
FRANCESCA: No, I've only had three Chingling the whole time!
ASH: Maybe a Chingling came by
and wanted to hang out when it heard the other ones!
FRANCESCA: Maybe, but the only thing to do now is
to see if they can all sing! And. go!
CHINGLING: [SINGING]
MECHA-CHINGLING: [SQUAWKING]
ASH: That was a little off, number four!
MECHA-CHINGLING: [SQUAWKING]
JAMES: Our mecha-Chingling certainly has the look!
JESSIE: But that singing voice sounds just like you!
JAMES: I couldn't have it sound like you!
MEOWTH: Well, tone-deaf or not,
it's still got to chum with those other Chingling!
ASH: Hey, check this out!
ASH: See anything weird about this one?
BROCK: You know, Ash, you're right! Hmm.
MEOWTH: Here comes the bust!
JAMES: Smokescreen time!
CHINGLING B, CHINGLING C: [DISTRESSED]
-BROCK: It's a fake! -FRANCESCA: But how?
ASH: Heads up!
DAWN: Buneary, Piplup, stay together!
JESSIE: While the Twerps frolic in the fog,
our mecha-Chingling can go on about our business,
then we'll bag up the rest of the batch!
JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Natch!
BROCK: Francesca! Where are you?
ASH: Finally it's clearing up!
DAWN: Buneary and Piplup, you okay?
BUNEARY, PIPLUP: [AFFIRMATIVE]
ASH: And how about you?
PIKACHU: [AFFIRMATIVE]
BROCK: Francesca?
FRANCESCA: Fine, at least I think so.
But look at what I've got!
ASH: Problem is, that's the fake one!
FRANCESCA: Oh dear!
DAWN: So what about the real ones?
PIKACHU, BUNEARY, PIPLUP: [CONCERNED]
FRANCESCA: They're gone!
ASH: Staravia! I choose you!
STARAVIA: [APPEARING]
ASH: Look for the Chingling! We've got to find them, quick!
STARAVIA: [AFFIRMATIVE]
CHINGLING: [SINGING]
JESSIE: Listen to that ring!
MEOWTH: These warblers can sure lay it down!
CHINGLING B: [AFFECTIONATE]
JAMES: Well aren't you the sweetest adorable little doll?
Aww. CHINGLING B: [PLEASED]
JAMES: Uh.since we already have a trio of these darlings,
would it be okay if I take just one?
JESSIE: No way!
You can't have three-part harmony without three parts!
MEOWTH: Do the math!
JAMES: You'll just have to be a duo!
JESSIE: But James. Hold on! Come back!
JESSIE: What got into him?
MEOWTH: I think he's a real mush.
JAMES: I know Chingling evolves into Chimecho!
And since my Chimecho is still on the mend
and staying with Nanny and Pop Pop,
the union of those two will be joyous indeed!
One happy Pokémon family!
JAMES: Just wait! Our futures are looking happy and bright!
CHINGLING B: [HAPPY]
STARAVIA: [ALERT]
BROCK: Hey, little Chingling, where are you?
DAWN: Come on, sing something!
STARAVIA: [URGENT]
ASH: Great, Staravia,you found them!
JESSIE: Actually, I did like two-part harmony
singing when I was younger.
MEOWTH: Hey, stop living in the past!
JESSIE: Isn't that nice. James is attempting to make amends!
He's sweetly gone and returned Chingling number three!
MEOWTH: So now our trio's re-trioed!
JESSIE: It's our tone-deaf mecha!
MEOWTH: All that thing does well is blow smoke!
JESSIE: There's nothing more embarrassing
than getting tricked by our Twerp trap!
MEOWTH: You never have a gas mask when you need one!
DAWN: You're terrible!
ASH: I should have known this was your fault!
JESSIE: No, it's the Twerps!
MEOWTH: No, it's the Twerps!
JESSIE, MEOWTH: Yes, it's the Twerps! Voh-dee-oh-doh!
JESSIE: Hey! You couldn't carry a tune in a bucket!
MEOWTH: You can?
ASH: Give us back those Chingling!
DAWN: But they've only got two of them!
JESSIE: Right! And that's two more than you're going to have!
JESSIE: Now, Dustox, let's go!
DUSTOX: [APPEARING]
ASH: Chimchar, I choose you!
CHIMCHAR: [APPEARING]
JESSIE: Quick, Dustox, Tackle, pronto!
DUSTOX: [TACKLE MOVE]
ASH: Dodge it, then Flame Wheel!
CHIMCHAR: [FLAMEWHEEL MOVE]
JESSIE, MEOWTH: We're blasting off in two-part harmony!
DUSTOX: [WORRIED]
DAWN: I think it's your spoiled Chingling that's missing!
FRANCESCA: You're right.
JAMES: So, Chingling, care to tag along with Team Rocket?
CHINGLING B: [HESITANT]
JAMES: All right! Come out, MimeJr.!
MIME JR.: [APPEARING]
JAMES: Do you think you could try
and convince Chingling to become one of us?
MIME JR.: [EAGER]
CHINGLING B: [DEFIANT]
JAMES: Then it's time for tough love! Mime Jr.!
Use Teeter Dance!
MIME JR.: [TEETER DANCE MOVE]
CHINGLING B: [BEFUDDLED]
JAMES: Good! When it comes to cutting a rug, Mime Jr. rules!
CHINGLING B, MIME JR.: [BEFUDDLED][ENTHUSIASTIC]
STARAVIA: [URGENT]
-ASH: There! -FRANCESCA: Chingling, dodge it!
CHINGLING B, MIME JR.: [EFFORT][SURPRISED]
DAWN: Whoa! Nice move, Chingling!
FRANCESCA: Chingling! Hidden Power, go!
CHINGLING B: [HIDDEN POWER MOVE]
MIME JR.: [PAINED]
FRANCESCA: Wow, a direct hit!
JAMES: Mime Jr., Mimic!
MIME JR.: [MIMIC MOVE]
FRANCESCA: Chingling! Dodge it!
CHINGLING B: [EFFORT]
FRANCESCA: Confusion!
CHINGLING B: [CONFUSION MOVE]
JAMES, MIME JR.: [SCARED]
JAMES: Why? You try and coerce someone to sing your song,
and they go off and write their own!
JAMES, MIME JR.: We're blasting off again!
CHINGLING B: [PROUD]
FRANCESCA: Chingling!
FRANCESCA: Are you okay?
CHINGLING B: [EXCITED]
ASH: Chingling's battling was awesome!
DAWN: Yeah, and you two won!
CHINGLING B: [HAPPY]
BROCK: Aww, I think Chingling's asking to get a hug!
FRANCESCA: But Chingling's never asked for that before!
BROCK: I think maybe your Chingling's starting to grow up!
FRANCESCA: Maybe. Of course, Chingling!
Have as many hugs as you want!
CHINGLING B: [AFFECTIONATE]
FRANCESCA: Well, I guess this is where we say goodbye.
I just can't thank you all enough!
ASH: Thanks! You take care of yourself!
DAWN: And, the next time we meet,
I hope we get to see another Pokémon Magic Show!
FRANCESCA: Sure! Count on it!
Okay, g*ng, how do we say goodbye?
CHINGLING: [SINGING]
BUNEARY: [THRILLED]
-DAWN: Perfect! -BROCK: Uh huh!
ASH: They sure can sing, right, Pikachu?
PIKACHU: [IMPRESSED]
NARRATOR: Helping some Chingling in need,
and adding some music to their day.
NARRATOR: Pastoria City waits in the wings,
so with a song in their hearts,
our heroes are once again on their way!
