[SINGING]
-I want to be the very best

Like no one ever was

To catch them is my real test

To train them is my cause

I will travel across the land

Searching far and wide

Each Pokémon to understand

The power that's inside

Pokémon, gotta catch 'em all

It's you and me

[CRASH!]

I know it's my destiny

Pokémon

Oh, you're my best friend

In a world we must defend

Pokémon, gotta catch 'em all

A heart so true

Our courage will pull us through

You teach me and I'll teach you

Pokémon

Gotta catch 'em all

Gotta catch 'em all

Pokémon

Gotta catch 'em all

Gotta catch 'em all

Pokémon

NARRATOR: Holy titanic!

Just as a Pokémon pirating plan

is prevented
by Ash and his friends,

catastrophe strikes
the "St. Anne."

The cruise ship capsizes
with them trapped on board.

Team Rocket also faces the same
horrible fate

as the once proud "St. Anne"

plunges deeper and deeper
into the depths of the sea.

Could this be how it ends?

At first,
we thought all the passengers

had gotten safely off the ship.

But we have just discovered
that five people are missing:

Ash, Misty, Brock, Jessie,
and James.

It makes all of us sad to think

that these young
Pokémon trainers

have had their promising careers
cut tragically short.

May these flowers
honor your memory.

A salute!

[TRUMPET PLAYS "TAPS"]

BROCK: Hey, Ash!
Answer me!

MISTY: Wake up, Ash!

Wake up!

PIKACHU: Pika-pi!

-[MOANS]
What?

Hey, are you feeling okay, Ash?

Pikachu?

What?

Oh, brother!

What are you talking about,
am I feeling okay?

You guys are the ones
who are upside down.

You're definitely
the one upside down.

Huh?

Whoa!

Look out!

[THUD!]

Pikachu!

Will someone tell me
what in the world happened?

Just take a look out the window.

Huh?

Fish swimming?

This can't be.

But that must mean

that this ship has sunk!

JESSIE: To protect the world
from devastation.

JAMES: To unite all peoples
within our nation.

BOTH: To denounce the evils
of truth and love,

to extend our reach
to the stars above.

Ah, Jessie.

James with a perfect tan.

There's nothing
like a tropical vacation!

The blue sea!

The white sand!

And the blazing sun above!

-Ah!
The sun!

Yes, that blazing sun,

fiery and burning

and burning,

burning,

burning!

Something's really burning!

You picked a bad place
for a nap!

Huh?

[BOTH SCREAMING]

[WATER SPRAYING]

[BOTH SIGHING]

Why is everything upside down?

The ship capsized and sank
while you two were sleeping!

-What?
-Uhh!

We've got to abandon ship
immediately!

I'm afraid
it won't be so easy to get off

while the ship's underwater!

[SCREAMS]

The ship's sunk!
We're doomed!

Calm down, James!

I've already thought of a way
to get us out of here.

Ekans!

Ekans!

Ekans, acid.

Open a hole in the floor.

We'll use it to escape.

-Wait!
Don't do that!

[DISTANT RUMBLING,
WATER SPRAYING]

[BOTH SCREAM]

Didn't I tell you numbskulls
we're sinking?

Think we need another hole
on this ship?

[BOTH YELP]

[BOTH GURGLING]

What are we supposed to do?

The ship's leaking everywhere!

We've got to keep calm.

As long as there's air in here,

it'll take time
to fill up with water.

Sure, but we better not
waste any time escaping.

Well, we can either go up
or down.

Well, if we're sinking,

then up would definitely be
better,

and if the ship is flipped
upside down,

the deck is below us,

and the ship's bottom
is up above our heads.

Then we have to dive down
to the deck!

Pika, pika.

But if we dive down to the deck

and come across a dead end,
then we're done for!

[MOANS]

[THUDDING]

[GRUNTING]

[MUFFLED WHIMPERING]

So how're we supposed to know?

Water's my specialty.

Go, Goldeen!

-Goldeen, goldeen.
Goldeen, goldeen.

Goldeen, dive down to the deck.

If you find a way off the ship,

bring something back
from outside.

Goldeen.

[WATER SPLASHES]

Goldeen.

Goldeen?

What's taking Goldeen so long?

I guess it can't find a way out.

[ALL GROAN]

[SPLASH]

[ALL SCREAM]

[SPLASH!]

Team Rocket?

They look terrible!

[TEAM ROCKET SPITS WATER]

-Prepare.
Prepare for trouble.

Yes, make it double.

BOTH: Huh?

You!

We've got you brats cornered!

So you followed us all the way
to the bottom of the sea!

-Ekans!
-Koffing!

-Koffing!
-Ekans!

BOTH: Here we go!

Bulbasaur!

-Char!
Char!

-Squirtle!
Squirt!

Geodude!

All right, a match!

[CREAKING, RUMBLING]

[ALL MOANING]

[CREAKING, RUMBLING]

[ALL SCREAM]

The ship'll roll
if we don't do something quick!

Charmander, Squirtle, Bulbasaur,

Geodude, Koffing, Ekans,

to the other side of the ship!

[ALL CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

[ALL SCREAM]

To the other side!
The other side!

[ALL CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]

Geodude!

Geodude, come back to this side!

-Dude!
Geodude!

[ALL SCREAM]

You guys,
call back your Pokémon!

But Team Rocket will beat us
if we call our Pokémon back!

He's right.

We can't worry about that
right now.

We've got worse troubles.

BOTH: Yeah.

Call your Pokémon back too.

What's more important,
a Pokémon battle or your life?

-She's right.
Good point.

[SHIP CREAKS]

[ALL SIGH]

Okay, then,

we all agree there won't be
any battles for now.

Let's work together!

[ALL GRUMBLING]

Come on, now.

Shake hands!

This is just a temporary truce
until we get out of this mess.

Better believe it!

[LEATHER CREAKING]

Hmm.

-[GRUMBLES]
-Pikachu!

[YELPS]

Pikachu!

[MOANING]

It's agreed we work together.

We got to think
of some way to escape.

Leave it to me.

I forgot to mention
I built my own "St. Anne" once.

-Huh?
-Really?

It was a model.

[ALL GRUMBLE]
-Oh, great.

That's how I learned

all about the structure
of the "St. Anne"!

Since the way to the deck
is blocked,

we'll have to climb to the
bottom of the ship.

We can cut a hole in the hull!

That's how we'll escape!

-What?
-Huh?

Well,
at least it's a plan anyway.

Over there!

Onix!

Make a staircase!

[GROWLING]

-Let's hurry!
-Right!

Pika!

Let's move it or lose it!

ALL: Yes, ma'am!

BROCK: The lights are out.

I can't see anything!

ASH: Let me handle it.

Charmander, I choose you!

-Char!
Char!

So where does this hall lead to?

This corridor leads
straight to the engine room.

And that's where the hull
is the thinnest.

With a little luck,

we should be able
to cut our way through.

[ALL GASP]

[FLAMES ROAR]

This is no good.

It's impossible to cross
to the engine room.

-Jessica?
-Yes, James?

Whoever said,
"beauty doesn't last,"

must have been thinking of us.

I'll always remember what
a wonderful dresser you were.

So will I!

Will you two knock it off?

There's got to be some way to
get off this ship!

There must be some angle
we haven't thought of yet.

Think, Ash!

Pikachu,
give my brain a jump start!

-Pika!
[ELECTRICITY ZAPS]

[SCREAMING]

Thanks!
That's just what I needed!

Bulbasaur,

I choose you!

Bulbasaur!

All right, Bulbasaur!

Vine Whip!

Extend your whips
to the other side!

Bulba!

Bulbasaur!

Good job!

That was a great idea, Ash!

Yeah, we can cross the vines
to the other side!

Let's get out of here!

I can't cross that inferno!

Jessie and Meowth, you go ahead!

I'm staying here.

James, James,
James, James, James!

Snap out of it!

How long do you think
you'd last on this side?

Now let's go.
We'll cross together.

Oh, Jessie!

Please, don't abandon me!

Don't worry.
I won't leave you.

Hey, Team Rocket!

Huh?

Bulbasaur!

-Wait!
Don't leave us!

Send back the vines!

ALL: Who's that Pokémon?

It's Magikarp!

-Karp!
Karp!

[PANTING]

Now I know what a
toasted marshmallow feels like!

Hey, no time to take a break.

We've got to
get off this ship quick.

Right!

Charmander,

I choose you!

Char!

Charmander,
we need you to weld through

the metal hull of
the ship with your flame.

-Char!
Char!

Mander!

Okay, listen up.

Grab hold of a water Pokémon
and swim to the surface!

Yeah, right.

Got it, Ash?

I'll be okay with my Squirtle.

Hey, don't forget about us!

What are we supposed to do?

Just grab a water Pokémon!

Water Pokémon?

It's almost burned through.

[WATER SPRAYS]

[ALL SCREAM]

-Are you crazy?
What've you done?

[WATER RUSHING]

Return, Charmander!

[WATER RUSHING]

Now, let's go, Squirtle!

-Squirtle!
Squirt!

Follow us, Team Rocket!

Hold on!

We haven't got
the right Pokémon!

[WATER RUSHING]

I hate water.

Especially wet water!

We're in big trouble!

We can't escape
without water Pokémon!

[SNICKERING]

You're laughing?

[CONTINUES SNICKERING]

I don't see what's so funny,
James.

The poor guy must be cracking up

just like this ship!

You really made fun of me.

But who's got
the last laugh now?

Well, a true genius
is never appreciated

until there's trouble.

I knew we'd need this
in a tight spot!

Look!

Wow!

Could it be?

BOTH: Magikarp!

We're not worthy!

Feast your eyes
on the king of carp!

Magikarp!

You're the best, James!

I take back the jokes.

From now on, I'll treat you with
the respect you deserve!

-Hmm.
Better late than never.

It's time, Magikarp!

Magikarp!

Lucky for us I bought this,

even if it cost
next month's salary.

Enough bragging.

Just tie yourself on.

We got to escape!

All right, Magikarp,
let's escape!

[MAGIKARP PANTING]

Don't tell me
this fish can't swim!

-Forget "swim."
It can barely splash!

We're doomed!

ALL: Looks like Team Rocket's
blasting off again!

I wonder why Team Rocket
still hasn't surfaced.

Do you think
they're still trapped inside?

Pikachu?

There's nothing more we can do

except try to find some dry land

Let's see.

Nothing but ocean
in every direction.

And no way to tell
which direction to go.

I remember the story of Noah,

who,
when he had to find dry land,

sent a bird to find it
and return with a branch.

What a great idea!

We're gonna do
the same thing as Noah.

Pidgeotto, I choose you!

[PIDGEOTTO SCREECHES]

Pidgeotto,

bring us back whatever you find!

Pidgeotto!

We're counting on you,
Pidgeotto.

Pikachu.

-Huh?
Pidgeotto!

-Magik, magikarp.
Magikarp.

Magikarp.
Karp, magikarp.

Karp, magikarp.
Karp, karp.

Pidgeotto.

MISTY: They weren't able to
make it.

ASH: Not even Team Rocket
deserved this.

BROCK: Yeah.

I guess
the only decent thing to do

is to give them
a traditional burial at sea.

That's right.

It's our duty,

even if they were our enemies.

[ALL SCREAM]
Zombies!

Who are you calling zombies?

We are not zombies.

Somebody help!

My fur's getting wet!

[MOANING]

-[SNAPS]
Chu.

Karp, karp, karp.

Karp, karp.

Karp, karp, karp.

Karp, karp.

Karp, karp, karp.
[STOMACHS RUMBLING]

I'm so hungry.

It seems like forever
since we last ate.

If I'd known
I was gonna be starving,

I would've stuffed my face full

when I was on the "St. Anne"!

Oh, I want some food!

Stop it!

Yeah, that whining only makes
you feel even hungrier!

Karp, karp, karp, karp, karp.

Magikarp.

Got to eat something.

Like filleted carp.

Or fried carp.

-Karp, karp, karp.
Magikarp, karp.

Fresh, marinated carp.

Carp flambé.

-Karp, magikarp.
[ALL MOANING]

-Magikarp, karp.
Karp, karp.

That's it!

Dinner is now served!

Clang!

[SCREAMS]

I wouldn't try that again
if I was you.

Check your Pokédex,

'cause Magikarp
is just scales and bones!

I wish
you'd told me that sooner!

-Ugh!
Not only can this fish not swim,

it's not even good for eating!

See,
I told you buying it was stupid!

You good-for-nothing fish!

I don't want to be your master!

[MAGIKARP SPLASHES]

Karp, karp, karp.

Good riddance, Magikarp!

I feel sorry for it.

ALL: Huh?

Karp, karp, karp, karp!

[ROARS]

[ALL SCREAM]

What is that?

Now you've done it.

Magikarp has evolved
into Gyarados!

Gyarados?

I miss Magikarp!

Electronic voice:
Gyarados.

This Pokémon
has a vicious temperament,

so use extreme caution.

Its fangs can crush stones,

and its scales
are harder than steel.

I'm James, your master.

Obey me!

[ROARS]

[WHIMPERS]

Dimwit!

If you're the master,

don't act
like you're scared of it!

I am scared!

Goldeen!

Starmie!

Staryu!

-Goldeen!
Goldeen!

How will you battle it?

My strategy is...

Run away!

ALL: Heave ho!

Heave ho!
Heave ho!

[BOTH PANTING]

[ROARS]

[ALL PANTING]

[ROARS]

ALL: Faster!
Faster!

[ROARS]

ALL: Huh?

What's it doing?

-It just evolved.
Maybe it's tired out!

BOTH: We made it!

Unless the stories are true.

ALL: Huh?

What are you talking about,
Misty?

Sailors tell terrible stories
about the Gyarados.

I think this might be...

It may be Dragon Rage!

ALL: Dragon Rage?

[ROARS]

[ALL SCREAM]

[ALL ROARING]

-Help!
We're Gyarados bait!

We're doomed!

Pikachu!

[ALL ROARING]

Hey, what're they doing?

Dragon Rage!

Gyarados's ultimate attack!

ALL: Here it comes!

Let's go!

No one's ever gotten away
from Dragon Rage!

-Whoa!
This is it!

[ALL SCREAMING]

We're gonna die!

[ALL SCREAMING]

-Hey, Brock!
Misty! Pikachu!

Whatever happens, don't let go!

[BOTH GRUNTING]

Pika!

[GRUNTS]

[ALL SCREAMING]

NARRATOR: Their
underwater escape

ends with our heroes
trapped in a water cyclone.

Talk about
a fiendish twist of fate!

With things
spiraling out of control,

will Ash and his friends
ever make it to dry land again?

Don't go away.

The Pokérap is next.

Pokémon!

[UPBEAT HIP-HOP MUSIC]

Okay, guys,
we got to rap some Pokémon.

You just do the singing.

I'll take care of the hard part.

Let's get it on.

[SINGING]
I want to be the best

There ever was

To beat all the rest

Yeah, that's my cause

[SINGING]
-Catch 'em, catch 'em

Gotta catch 'em all

Pokémon

[SINGING]
-I'll search across the land

Look far and wide

Release from my hand
the power that's inside

That's it for now.

-Tune in tomorrow.
We'll rap at you some more.

There's ,
so watch Monday through Friday.

You'll catch 'em all!

[SINGING]
-Catch 'em, catch 'em

Gotta catch 'em all,
