20x12 - The Sun, the Scare, the Secret Lair!

[bunniefuu]

[all] Full tummies...

Still, I want that one.

Sure. Heads up.

Hm. [sighs and munches]

Yummy. Top-shelf berries.

Wobbuffet.

[Jessie sighs]

Not doing a thing agrees with me.

Well, with ample food and a nice soft bed
on which to lay my snoring head,

I have to agree.

-This must be an alternative universe!
-Wobbuffet.

[ringing]

What's that sound again?

It has a familiar ring.

It's messing with my digestion!

[all yell]

[James] Ah! A call from Headquarters!

-I forgot how to talk!
-My face feels just like a mooseberry!

There has been absence of reports
on your activities in the Alola region.

Conditions on the ground
mean only we make that call.

-Jessie!
-Then tell me, what have you accomplished?

Accomplished? You see, uh...

we have... caught new Pokémon,
rare new Pokémon!

[Giovanni sighs]

Uh, hey, you! Now hear this!
Come on, look at the camera!

It's called Mimikyu
and it's incredibly powerful!

-Are we to assume you caught only one?
-No, you've got it all wrong! Uh, there!

A Bewear! Extra, extra large!

And may I say,
Bewear's incredibly strong as well?

Wobbuffet.

See, there are so many new Pokémon
to choose from... so many.

Yes. So it seems. Remember, I have
great expectations of your work

to further Team Rocket's mission.
Good luck.

-Yes, sir!
-Thank you, sir!

-[Meowth] You won't be sorry, sir!
-Wobbuffet

So. Keep us updated... regularly.

Hm! Please! Four eyes!

She's got some nerve, acting all high
and mighty because she works for the Boss.

Perhaps, though we seem to have pulled
the wool over their eyes.

But what about the next time?
So far, we've really only caught one.

That's Mimikyu
and we still know zip about it.

I suppose
we'll have to catch Bewear then.

-[Meowth] Don't bet the ranch on it.
-Wobbu-Wobbu.

-Then that means...
-We need to go and catch a Pokémon!

[all] Right on!

♪ I could get used to this heat
On my skin ♪

♪ I can feel every day
I'm a little bit stronger ♪

♪ I only wish each day was longer ♪

♪ Yeah! We're having fun in the sun ♪

♪ Week after week
It's just like I'm on vacation ♪

♪ Yeah! Now our journey's begun, ♪

♪ Friends till the end
Number one's our destination ♪

♪ Under the Alolan sun
Pokémon! ♪

-Oh, yeah!
-Pika.

-Pika.
-[chuckles]

[narrator]
Beautiful weather in the region

means our heroes' next
Pokémon School class is at the beach.

Never has going to school
looked like so much fun!

-Okay, ready?
-Pop!

-Pika!
-Now you've done it!

-Yeah!
-Pikachu.

-Hey, come on in! The water feels great!
-Not a chance. Seawater's dangerous.

Go. You've been waterproofed, You have
an iron defense against getting wet.

Yes, but if that iron defense
were to fail, I'd lose all my data!

[chuckles]

-Your waterproofing's waterproof!
-What was that for?

Whoa! That's so cool.
What is it?

My Clawitzer-shaped water sh**t.

It has a*t*matic targeting
with an app controlling water pressure.

This is the perfect place
to give it a test run.

You made it yourself? Awesome!

Togedemaru, get them!

Maru.

-[yells]
-Pika!

[squeaks] Maru.

With Togedemaru and my water p*stol,
I can't be b*at!

You think so? Time to counterattack!

-Pikachu?
-Pika!

-[laughs]
-[Rotom Dex] So primitive!

Scooping water with his hands
is both inefficient and ineffective.

At least % of the water will be wasted

and the chance of hitting them is
less than %!

-Huh?
-[giggles] Lillie, let's go, too!

-Okay.
-Professor Kukui!

Look after the Egg, please?

-Sure. I'm on the case.
-[barks]

[whimpers]

[squeals]

-Doesn't it feel... great? [laughs]
-All right! Funny, huh?

Here's a taste of your own medicine!

[giggling]

-[gasps] Let's team up!
-Uh, sure!

-Bounsweet, quick. Go get them!
-Bounsweet!

Bounsweet!

[all yell and groan]

-That did it!
-You're in trouble.

-Pika!
-You've got it all wrong! Lillie!

-Get ready! Lana?
-[both] All set!

[squealing]

[chatting and laughter]

[Sophocles] Kiawe, come
and help the boy's team!

Huh? Uh, duty calls.

[chatting and laughter]

[barks]

[Kukui] Soon you'll be playing
with all of them, too.

[groans softly]

[yawns]

I can't! No more waiting, please!
I'm bored out of my mind!

I don't see we have a choice. None.

Well, you can just be boring on your own.
I'm thirsty. Down the hatch.

[slurps and sighs]

-[Meowth and James] Huh?
-[munches]

Malasada donut? No fair!

-Of course.
-Well, I actually bought this.

-Not stole!
-Wob...

[Jessie yells]

Un-mouth that malasada, thief!
Now! Give that back!

Wob-Wob-Wob!

Wingull, eh?
I suppose it's classified as catchable.

Not on my watch!
No donut-stealing Pokémon for me.

How selfish can a Pokémon be?

[chirping]

Eh? Hey, Cloyster ahoy!

[Jessie] Looks powerful.
Let's catch it, stat!

-Sleeping! The perfect time! [giggles]
-Have you forgotten?

-You'll never get it without a battle!
-Cloy?

The nerve!
My precious Poké Ball isn't lunch!

Hey, you! Unclamp my property at once!

[grunts] Give me!

-[James sighs]
-I guess it's catch-and-carry time.

[grunting in frustration]

Whoa! This lug's a load!

I want my ball back!

-[all] Oh!
-Wobbu! Wobb!

-[James groans]
-Yuck. Spit it out!

Wobbuff! Wobbuff!

[trills]

[both gasp]

[trills]

-Aw, man, I lost.
-It was a good race.

-Just you wait!
-We'll see.

Huh? Huh?

-Corsola!
-You see them a lot around here.

[grunts] I know. I'll catch a Corsola.
Will you help?

[trills]

-Corsola.
-Huh? Ah!

-[Kiawe] Ash, run!
-Huh? Why?

-Huh? Who are they?
-They're Mareanie!

Don't let them get too close!
They're poisonous!

-Poisonous?
-[hoots]

-Come on!
-[grunts]

[all] Mareanie, Mareanie, Mareanie.

-[Ash gasps]
-Pika.

That was close. When you see Mareanie
traveling in groups, they're dangerous.

Mareanie, the Brutal Star Pokémon.

A Poison and Water type.
Their spikes are poisonous.

When they att*ck, they turn upside down
and trap prey with ten legs.

-Wish I could battle one of them!
-[trills]

-They're common around here.
-You'll see them again.

-That's when you'll get a chance.
-Sounds good.

-[Rockruff whines and barks]
-Hey, guys, how about a little break?

Oh! A Carvanha. My Carvanha!

Spot on!

Carvanha. Carvanha. Carvanha!

[whimpers and yells] Defeated.

Guess it had a different point of view!

Man, what choppers!
Hey, where did Mimikyu go?

Argh! Oy vey! Where are its insides?

[whimpering yell]

[gasps] I almost took a trip down
that long tunnel again.

-You're here now.
-Where's Mimikyu!

Its inner Pokémon's in trouble!

What? It's sitting right over there.

[all scream]

Wobbu! Wobbu!

Up next,
an ambush at the bottom of the sea!

With this look,
they'll think I'm their neighbor.

-Neighborly. Knock yourself out.
-Wait. You're staying?

Too much sun promotes wrinkles.

If you wanna bring it up here,
I'll battle that lug.

But I don't want my Fury Swipes
waterlogged.

Good point. Bon voyage!

Thanks, I think. [mumbles]

Wobbu! Wobbuffet!

[sighs and pants]

Now, let me see. I hope
that Carvanha is still around. Oh!

[all] Alomomola. Alomomola.

Alomomola? All right,
I'll simply lure them in, then...

Uh! What's that? [whimpers]

[gibbering and whimpering]

-[coughs]
-You look pretty messed up!

I feel it, too. [groans]

[mumbles] Mareanie.

Looks a lot like a hat
made out of spiked heels.

[James] Mm. It's a Mareanie.

Though, it is kind of a cutie.

Ow!

-What was that for?
-Hey, look out!

-It's armed with a potent poison!
-[Jessie] What?

-We could use a poisonous Pokémon!
-So, catch it!

-No, you!
-Use your head! Hang in there!

Wobbuffet!

[shrieks]

-Mareanie.
-[groans]

I told you. We can use that.

-Are you out of your mind?
-[James groans]

-Huh?
-[groans]

-[Mareanie] Mareanie, Mareanie.
-Oh!

[shrieks]

-Mareanie.
-[James groans]

-Stay away!
-[Jessie] Wow.

[Team Rocket] Who's that Pokémon?

It's Mareanie!

[Mareanie] Mareanie.

All right.
It's time for some Pokémon observation.

Each of you find a Pokémon.
Observe everything it does.

-[all] Yes, sir!
-[chuckling]

Chinchou.

-Mankey.
-Primeape.

[snoring] Pichu.

Hey, how about we search over that way?

-Pika.
-[Rotom Dex] Will do!

-[grunts and groans]
-Mareanie. Mareanie.

Stay away!
Why are you following me around?

-[Jessie] Make sense of this.
-Dig that.

James reminds Mareanie of its first crush.

-[James shrieks]
-[Mareanie] Ah!

-[Jessie] I could see that.
-Mareanie. Mareanie.

-Mareanie says you're quite a catch!
-That's so wrong!

-It's a catch-or-be-caught world.
-Cute, but boring.

Wobbuffet.

[panting]

Hm. I don't see any Pokémon. This way!

-Pi-Pika!
-[grunts]

-It's the Twerp!
-And Pikachu, of course!

-Team Rocket!
-[Rotom Dex] We meet again!

What are you doing here?

What about you guys?

Up to no good, I'm sure.

Pika. Pika.

[snarls]

You're wrong. We're up to good for us!
Pikachu's ours now!

-Mimikyu, go!
-Mimikyu!

Use Iron Tail!

Pikachu. Pika!

-Meowth, Wobbuffet, You're in this, too!
-Wobb!

-Use Thunderbolt!
-[both yell]

Let me go!
We have a chance to capture Pikachu here!

[Mareanie] Huh?

Mareanie! Nie! Nie! Nie!

-Quick, dodge it!
-Pika!

-Mareanie.
-Huh?

-You just...
-Mareanie.

Mareanie says it wants to help you battle!

-All right. Show them your stuff!
-Mareanie!

That's a Mareanie!

Keep your eyes on your battle!

-Ah!
-Pika.

Pika. Pika. Pika.

-Rowlet, Leafage!
-[trills]

[trills]

-Mareanie, Spike Cannon!
-Mareanie!

-Quick, Rowlet! Fly up!
-Nie! Nie! Nie!

Don't let it get away!

-Nie!
-[trills]

-Rowlet!
-Pi. Pikachu!

Rowlet's poisoned!

Mareanie.

-Ah! Pika!
-[pants]

Huh? Pikachu!

-Mareanie. [giggles]
-You're something else, Mareanie!

-Pikachu! Rowlet!
-Uh! You don't think we could...

-Think we could finally win? Yes!
-Buff!

Hey, Pikachu! Rowlet! Are you okay?

We can win. We can win!

Victory! Our time has come at last! [sobs]

Yeah. We're gonna grab the Big Brass Ring!

Wobbuff! Wobbuff!

Uh...

[snarls and grunts]

[both shriek]

Hold off for just a few more seconds!

-This is the best part!
-[James] We were so close!

-[Meowth] Party pooper!
-Wobbuffet!

-Mimikyu...
-[Team Rocket] We're off with a new blast!

[yelling]

-[gasps] Pikachu!
-Pika.

-Rowlet!
-[trills]

-Rowlet!
-[trills softly]

-Here's an Antidote.
-Thanks, Professor!

-Rowlet, here!
-[trills]

-Ash, Rowlet is going to be just fine.
-Thank goodness for that!

-Pika.
-Rowlet.

Thanks, everybody! Back to the class!

--Great! How about volleyball?
-Whoa! Sounds like fun!

-All right. Popplio, make a balloon!
-[squeaks]

[giggles]

[trills]

Ah. Here we go!

[grunts]

[grunts] Huh?

-Take it, Pikachu!
-Pika. Pika.

My turn!

-[pants] I got it!
-[trills]

-[Sophocles] Togedemaru, pop it!
-[squeals]

-[trills]
-Maru?

[squeals]

[all laugh]

-You almost got it, didn't you?
-Pika. Pika.

Maru.

-Popplio, can you make us one more?
-Pop.

It's mine! Got it!

[all groan]

Why you... We were so close to...

-Huh? So sweet…
-Wob. Wob.

Wow. Looks like Bewear went on
a berry run again!

Bewear.

-We couldn't eat all this if we were paid.
-[Meowth] It's rude not to eat food!

[Jessie] Delish. Look.
You don't look a gift Bewear in the mouth.

-Hm?
-Wob! [sobs]

Hold on! I know what to do!

Let's make this
our Team Rocket secret base!

-That could work.
-You're onto something.

In here. we've got a warm place to cop
some Zs and our tummies will stay full!

And catching Bewear profoundly puffs up
our Pokémon portfolio!

-Wobbuffet!
-And that would be a good thing.

Great!
I christen this Team Rocket's secret base!

-[all] Our space!
-Wobbuffet!

Marean.

Oh, you were marvelous today. Thank you.

Would you like to stay here with me?

Mareanie.

Mareanie said: "I do, I do!"

-Wonderful!
-Anie.

I just caught a Mareanie! Come out!

Mareanie.

Let's work as a team.

-Sound good?
-Mareanie!

Stop! No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

[groans]

Mareanie.

Catching another Pokémon's worth it.
Works for me.

[shrieks]

Will you stop sneaking up
behind me and being scary?

-Please!
-Wobbuffet.

I'm all out! Fill her up!

[narrator] With a secret base
on the island,

Team Rocket is catching new Pokémon
with new evil plans to come!

What are the plans
and how will they affect our heroes?

The answers to come,
as the journey continues!
