Post by bunniefuu »

NARRATOR: The beautiful Port Valor!

NARRATOR: Situated in the lovely Valor Lakefront,

where the Wallace Cup is soon to take place!

DAWN: Now Piplup,

aren't you excited we're going to get a chance to meet

the Coordinator Ash and Brock used to travel around with?

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

BEAUTIFLY: [HAPPY]

BROCK, DAWN, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

ASH: A Beautifly! PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

DAWN: It is beautiful!

POKEDEX: Beautifly. The Butterfly Pokémon,

and the evolved form of Silcoon.

When flowers are in full bloom,

Beautifly fly about gathering pollen.

BEAUTIFLY: [HAPPY]

ASH: Wait, do I know this Beautifly?

BROCK: You'll find out soon enough!

MAY: Yoo-hoo! Long time no see!

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!

[ASH READS ON-SCREEN TEXT]

MAY: Wow! Ash, Pikachu, and Brock, great to see you!

ASH: Thanks, May! It's great ta see you too!

PIKACHU: [GREETING]

BROCK: Uh, that's a lot of luggage.

MAY: No, this stuff? I brought presents!

ASH: Thanks, this is awesome!

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

BROCK: Knowing what it's for would be awesome.

MAY: Here you go! For Dawn and Piplup!

It's so nice to meet you! Hope you like it!

DAWN: Thank you May, wow! That's so sweet!

PIPLUP: [HAPPY]

DAWN: It's adorable!

DAWN: I finally get to meet you after all this time!

They call you the Princess of Hoenn, right?

MAY: Stop! You're making me blush! Call me May, okay?

ASH: Guess we have Wallace to thank for seeing you again!

BROCK: So are you all ready to compete in the Wallace Cup?

MAY: Yeah! I've been waiting to do this for such a long time!

And as soon as I heard it was going to be in Sinnoh

I came here as fast as I could!

JAMES: Could that be the Hoenn region Twerpette?

JESSIE: Back for a whirl at

the Wallace Cup competition I'll bet.

MEOWTH: How competitive can it get?

WOBBUFFET: [CONCERNED]

JESSIE: I'll totally trounce her don't you fret!

JESSIE, MEOWTH, WOBBUFFET: [WEAK]

JAMES: If I don't get something to eat pretty soon

I'll have no fuel to fret!

WOBBUFFET: [WEAK]

ASH: So what's Max up to these days?

DAWN: Oh yeah! Max is your little brother right, May?

MAY: Right! Max is doing great!

MAY: He's hard at work helping to take care of Dad's Pokémon.

Max's always talking about doing it

just like he learned from Brock!

Needless to say Dad's as proud as he can be!

BROCK: That's nice to hear!

ASH: Of course! Max was always watching Brock super closely!

PIKACHU: [AGREEING]

DAWN: That's amazing! So May, when did you arrive in Sinnoh?

MAY: Three days ago.

There was something I really wanted to do

before the Wallace Cup got started.

So first I went to Snowpoint City!

DAWN: So what did you do?

MAY: I'll show you! Now! Glaceon, on stage!

GLACEON: [APPEARING]

BROCK: May, your Eevee evolved! Great!

POKEDEX: Glaceon.

The Fresh Snow Pokémon and an evolved form of Eevee.

Glaceon can freeze the fur on its body

and make it stick out like sharp needles.

DAWN: So cute!

MAY: See, over near Snowpoint City there's an ice cave

MAY: where a huge ice crystal causes Eevee to evolve!

DAWN: and where your Eevee evolved.

MAY: Right!

MAY: Since I was coming to Sinnoh anyway,

I figured it would be fun to return

to the Johto Contests with a newly evolved Pokémon!

ASH: Oh yeah, how many Johto ribbons do you have by now?

MAY: I've got three of them!

DAWN: Three? Nice work!

MAY: Thanks! But, as usual...

MAY: Drew and Harley are as strong as ever

and I just can't seem to b*at either of them!

ASH: Sounds like you're really working hard!

DAWN: May would you mind showing me your ribbons?

MAY: Here!

MAY: Ta da!

DAWN: Real Johto ribbons!

MAY: Ash told me all about you!

ASH: Yup, everything!

PIKACHU: [HAPPY]

BROCK: She knows all about how you lost in the first stage

twice in a row and that right now you're recharging a bit!

-DAWN: Oh! -MAY: Hey, chin up!

Since I got to Johto

it's been one disaster after another for me!

DAWN: Wow, you too?

MAY: So I wanted to compete in the Wallace Cup

as a good way to get myself back on the Contest track!

Why don't we both make this our comeback stage?

DAWN: It's a deal!

ASH, BROCK, MAY, DAWN, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [CONFUSED]

MAY: Some things never change!

ASH: Guess I have been kind of hungry for a while now.

DAWN: Well since it's lunchtime we're probably all hungry!

MAY: I just happened to make reservations

at the perfect place!

Only the most popular restaurant in Valor Lakefront!

ASH: This is it?

PIKACHU: [EXCITED] PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

MAY: The Seven Stars Restaurant!

This is the hottest place to eat in the whole Sinnoh region!

DAWN: Wow, May, I'm impressed!

BROCK: May's always had a nose

for finding great places like this!

JESSIE: How dare the Twerps

have a fine feast when we're starving!

MEOWTH: You know, for dopes they don't do so bad!

JAMES: That's because while we came to become

Contest conquerors they chose to chow down!

WOBBUFFET: [UPSET]

CONCIERGE: Welcome ladies and gentlemen!

MAY: Reservations for May?

CONCIERGE: Yes of course we've been waiting for you, Miss May.

You have a reservation for four! Please, right this way!

CONCIERGE: You're leaving?

BOY: I'm gonna go back and train some more

but I'm gonna eat here if it's the last thing I do!

CONCIERGE: Then we'll be waiting to serve you at another time.

BOY: I won't forget this!

DAWN: What was that about?

CONCIERGE: That young man lost his battle

so of course he wasn't accepted at our establishment.

-ASH: Battle? -CONCIERGE: Come with me

and I'll explain.

BROCK, ASH, DAWN, PIKACHU: [SHOCKED]

ASH: It's a b*ttlefield!

DAWN: I thought it was a restaurant!

CONCIERGE: You see, besides

being a wealthy and successful businessman,

the owner of the Seven Stars restaurant

is an avid battle fan as well!

CONCIERGE: As a result,

only those who battle against him and his fiancée

and emerge victoriously are allowed to dine here!

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

BROCK: That means, if we lose...

CONCIERGE: You'll be leaving with empty stomachs

just like the last gentleman did.

DAWN: That's rough!

MAY: Nah! I think it's great!

ASH: If you say so. I'm starving!

ASH, PIKACHU: [CURIOUS]

CONCIERGE: Those customers were successful in their battle

and have just completed a free full-course meal!

ASH: Yeah!

MAY: When those doors opened I smelled the yummiest aroma ever!

DAWN: So, we'll just have to win and that's that!

PIPLUP: [DETERMINED]

JESSIE: Land of plenty.

JAMES: I want an eating visa!

MEOWTH: Hey! Are you yelping yahoos forgetting that

we're the bad guys which means we don't earn our munchies,

we steal them?

JESSIE: Earth to Meowth, it's a free meal moron!

JAMES: Free! One word self-respecting bad guys love!

KYLIE: You must be our next customers then!

ROMAN: Welcome to the Seven Stars Restaurant!

My name is Roman and I'm

a restaurateur who prides himself on the finest cuisine!

KYLIE: And, my name is Kylie!

I've spared no expense in providing

only the finest in décor and ambience.

CONCIERGE: So shall we proceed two at a time

with a Tag Battle then?

ASH: Tag battle? Cool!

DAWN: May, can I be on your team?

MAY: Sure! And then we can eat!

BROCK: I guess it's you and me, big guy.

ASH: It's been a while since we battled together, Brock,

so let's do it!

ROMAN: All right, everyone please select your Pokémon!

BROCK: All right Sudowoodo, let's go!

SUDOWOODO: [APPEARING]

ASH: Okay, Pikachu, get in there!

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

ROMAN: Ooh! Nice Pokémon!

KYLIE: And now, it's our turn!

ROMAN: All right, Snorlax!

KYLIE: You come on out too, Munchlax!

SNORLAX: [APPEARING]

MUNCHLAX: [APPEARING]

MAY: Wow, Munchlax!

DAWN: Evolution pairs are popular!

POKEDEX: Munchlax. The Big Eater Pokémon.

It gobbles up its own body weight in food each day,

and it swallows its food without almost any chewing.

POKEDEX: Snorlax.

The Sleeping Pokémon, and the evolved form of Munchlax.

It can eat four hundred pounds of food before feeling full.

ROMAN: I would suggest in order to expedite our battle

that we launch our moves at the same time!

BROCK: Ash, they sure sound confident.

ASH: Yeah!

ASH: Sounds like fun. We're in!

TUXEDO MAN: I understand. So! Battle begin!

ROMAN: All right Snorlax, Mega Punch!

ASH: Pikachu, use Volt Tackle!

KYLIE: Munchlax, Giga Impact, go!

BROCK: Sudowoodo, Double Edge!

SNORLAX: [MEGA PUNCH MOVE] PIKACHU: [VOLT TACKLE MOVE]

MUNCHLAX: [GIGA IMPACT MOVE] SUDOWOODO: [DOUBLE EDGE MOVE]

MUNCHLAX, SUDOWOODO: [EXERTION]

SNORLAX: [MEGA PUNCH MOVE] PIKACHU: [VOLT TACKLE MOVE]

SNORLAX: [PAINED]

MUNCHLAX: [PAINED]

SNORLAX: [PAINED]

MUNCHLAX, SNORLAX: [DAZED]

TUXEDO MAN: So! Snorlax and Munchlax are unable to battle,

and that means the customers win!

ROMAN: What?

KYLIE: No! Not my Munchlax!

SUDOWOODO, PIKACHU: [PLEASED]

ASH: Just one hit? That was quick!

BROCK: Guess they weren't as strong as we thought they were.

MAY: Now that's the Ash and Brock I remember!

Hey, Dawn, let's finish our battle up with one hit too!

DAWN: Right!

ASH: Dawn, May! Don't be too confident!

DAWN: Don't worry, we know!

ROMAN: Of course the two winners may proceed

into the restaurant and place their orders.

ASH: Nah! It's all or none of us!

PIKACHU: [AFFIRMATIVE]

KYLIE: Oh my, aren't they just darling?

ROMAN: This won't be so easy! All right, let's go!

ROMAN: Girafarig, come out!

KYLIE: All right, Drifloon, you too!

GIRAFARIG: [APPEARING] DRIFLOON: [APPEARING]

MAY: Wow your Drifloon is just the cutest thing!

KYLIE: Well I'm honored by your kind words.

BROCK: A Psychic-type and a Ghost-type!

That's a pretty interesting pair they've got!

DAWN: You ready, Piplup?

PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

MAY: As for me I'm going with Blaziken!

BLAZIKEN: [EXCITED] PIPLUP: [EXCITED]

DAWN: Blaziken! It's so big!

POKEDEX: Blaziken.

The Blaze Pokémon, and the evolved form of Combusken.

Flames surround and come out of its wrists,

making its punches extremely damaging and dangerous.

ASH: Man, has it been a long time!

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

BROCK: Blaziken's stronger too!

ROMAN: A Water and Fire type duo!

The same rules apply all right?

DAWN: That's fine with us!

TUXEDO MAN: Very well! Battle...

KYLIE, ROMAN, CONCIERGE, BROCK, ASH, MAY: What the?

WAITER: Roman! Somehow every single solitary piece of

food from the kitchen's been stolen!

ASH: Our food?

DAWN: No way!

MAY: I'll tell you nobody steals my food and gets away with it!

DAWN: I think May's turned into a Fire type!

PIPLUP: [AMAZED]

BROCK: One thing that'll drive May over the edge

is someone swiping her food!

DAWN: What happened to our Princess?

PIPLUP: [DISTRESSED]

ASH: Whoa!

BROCK: What a mess!

PIKACHU: [AMAZED] PIPLUP: [WORRIED]

CHEF: I'm so sorry Mister Roman but our hors d'oeuvres

and our soup and our main course and even our dessert is gone!

Stolen right out from under my expertly trained eyes and nose!

ROMAN: A travesty! How could this have happened?

That food was for the gourmet enjoyment

of our victorious customers!

MAY: Well, you've got that right!

And I'm going to get our lunch back!

MAY'S MUNCHLAX: [APPEARING] PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

MAY'S MUNCHLAX: [GREETING]

KYLIE: Goodness, you have a Munchlax too?

MAY: Will you call out your Munchlax?

KYLIE: Okay!

KYLIE: Come on out, my dear little Munchie!

MUNCHLAX: [EXCITED]

ASH: So May, what are you going to do?

MAY: Just watch, Ash!

MAY: Now, Munchlax,

I know you'll remember that delicious smell

so I want you to go and follow it!

KYLIE: That's a wonderful idea! All right Munchie dear,

you go along and help follow that scent too!

MUNCHLAX [X ]: [SNIFFING]

MAY'S MUNCHLAX: [SNIFFING] / [EXCITED]

ASH: Cool! Munchlax's got the scent!

BROCK: It's just like radar!

MUNCHLAX: [SNIFFING]

DAWN: Hey, Kylie, what's wrong with your Munchlax?

KYLIE: I guess May's Munchlax's sense of smell is just better.

BROCK: Or sense of stuffing its face.

MAY: Beg your pardon?

MAY'S MUNCHLAX: [DIRECTING]

MAY'S MUNCHLAX: [DIRECTING]

MAY: You found it!

ASH: Munchlax, way to go!

DAWN: Awesome!

KYLIE: What a Munchlax!

My compliments to you as a trainer!

MAY: Thanks Kylie! Now you just leave everything to us!

We'll have our lunch back just in time for lunch!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: Feeding time!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH, SEVIPER, CARNIVINE, WOBBUFFET: [FEASTING]

JESSIE: Scrumpdiddlyumptous!

JAMES: Good too!

MEOWTH: My mouth d*ed and went to heaven!

JESSIE: Well don't k*ll your stomach!

JAMES: There are enough provisions in that icebox

to equitably feed the lot of us!

MEOWTH: All for one!

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: One for food!

MAY'S MUNCHLAX: [EXCITED]

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

-MAY: No, not them! -ASH: Team Rocket!

DAWN: Chubby too!

JESSIE: Quick before they repossess it!

JAMES: No tag backs!

MEOWTH: Down the hatch and they'll get scratch!

ASH, BROCK, DAWN, MAY, PIKACHU, PIPLUP: [SHOCKED]

JESSIE: Thanks to you we weren't able to truly relax

and enjoy our meal!

JAMES: All I can say is I hope you have an antacid, Twerps!

MAY: You crooks never change!

Haven't you clowns learned anything at all, huh?

JESSIE: Is that the sound of an obsolete Twerpette I hear?

JAMES: Your expiration date's passed my dear!

JESSIE: On the wind!

JAMES: Past the stars!

MEOWTH: In your ear!

JESSIE: Bringing Twerp-laden chaos at a break neck pace!

JAMES: Dashing Twerp-tinged 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 geeky do-gooders in their place!

JAMES: We're Team Rocket

JESSIE, JAMES, MEOWTH: And we're in your face!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

MAY: Maybe they really have changed.

MAY'S MUNCHLAX: [IMPRESSED]

DAWN: This is no time to be impressed May!

PIPLUP: [AGREEING] BROCK: Hey, look over there!

ASH: A refrigerator?

MAY: And that must be where all of our stolen gourmet food is!

JESSIE: Even thieves worry about perishable produce, duh!

SEVIPER, CARNIVINE: [THREATENING]

MAY: Why- you- crooked- creeps!

ASH: Forgot what it's like to be starving, huh?

BROCK: Ash, let's get them!

DAWN: Hold on! What about our Tag Battle?

MAY: Come on! It's our turn!

ASH: Okay go for it!

BROCK: Yeah! We'll watch and then we eat!

BROCK: You two were great!

ASH: It's like you two've been a team forever!

DAWN: Thanks! No one messes with our lunch!

MAY: It's great inspiration isn't it?

CHEF: Thank you for getting all our food back!

ROMAN: Every one of us is truly in your debt!

ASH: Well, May and Dawn actually did the work!

PIKACHU: [AGREEING]

DAWN: Don't forget the Pokémon!

MAY: Hey, everybody deserves the credit!

KYLIE: Roman and I have talked it over

and we've made a decision!

As our way of saying thanks

we'd like you to have your meal without having to battle!

MAY: Oh that's great!

MAY, DAWN: All right, all right, all right, all right!

ASH: Thanks for hanging in there, stomach!

BROCK: Things always taste better when you wait

and we waited!

CHEF: Then I'll begin preparation immediately!

It shouldn't be much longer more or less.

ASH: What? More time?

ROMAN: We're sorry, but all our cuisine must be prepared fresh!

DAWN: There's only one thing to do!

MAY: Let's have that Tag Battle now!

ROMAN: Now? You mean it?

DAWN, MAY: Course we do!

ROMAN: We'll use the same methods as before!

Simultaneous moves!

DAWN, MAY: Right!

ASH: We got our win in one sh*t!

BROCK: I'm still not getting a good read

on the restaurateur's strength though.

TUXEDO MAN: All right! Battle begin!

of showing off Girafarig

and Drifloon's unique appearances all right!

ASH: Dawn! May! Win it! PIKACHU: [CHEERING]

BLAZIKEN: [EXERTION]

GIRAFARIG, DRIFLOON: [PAINED] / [DAZED]

TUXEDO MAN: Girafarig and Drifloon are unable to battle,

which means that the customers have won!

MAY, DAWN: We did it!

DAWN: Give me a high five!

BLAZIKEN: [PLEASED] PIPLUP: [HAPPY]

ASH: I'll tell you seeing the Fusion of Fire

and Water again was amazing! PIKACHU: [AMAZED]

BROCK: It was even more polished than before!

ROMAN: That was a wonderful battle!

KYLIE: An intense competition we've rarely experienced!

CONCIERGE: Ladies and gentlemen,

your lunch has just this moment been completed!

Please, step this way!

MAY, DAWN: All right!

ASH: Yeah! I can't wait!

PIKACHU: [EXCITED]

PIPLUP: [EXERTION]

DAWN: That's Lake Valor.

MAY: So pretty!

MAY: Hey Ash! You still have this?

ASH: Yup! I sure do!

DAWN: Hold on. Then you both must've competed, right?

MAY: It was way back in Terracotta Town!

Ever since I went off by myself it's been my good luck charm!

It reminds me how much I learned from Ash on our journey.

DAWN: I see!

BROCK: After all,

when we first met May she was starting at square one!

DAWN: I keep the ribbon my mother gave me

as a good luck charm as well!

You know, ribbons seem to be loaded with

experiences and memories.

DAWN: It always gives me strength!

MAY: The same for me!

This amazing ribbon has helped me all the way

through the Johto region. Dawn, just think,

I'll be able to see you and your Pokémon

performing before I know it!

DAWN: And Ash, don't forget you should enter the Wallace Cup!

MAY: Ash? You're entering?

ASH: See, Wallace told me I should enter

the Wallace Cup with Buizel.

MAY: Wallace told you himself?

NARRATOR: May's Sinnoh experience has begun!

NARRATOR: as has the beautiful

and exciting adventure between all our Heroes,

past and present, at the Wallace Cup!
