20x33 - Big Sky, Small Fry!

Post by bunniefuu »

Really?
We can catch the Totem Pokémon doing this?

You doubt the information I gathered
about the Totem Pokémon?

That master fisherman said he saw
the Totem Pokémon with his very own eyes.

You see that. It’s not just possible
or probable, but definite.

In that case,
we'll fish for every Totem Pokémon

swimming in the deep, blue sea
that we can catch.

A trove of Totem Pokémon for the Boss.

Fish all you want,
but there’s only one Totem Pokémon.

Wobbuffet.

[grunts] And this might be the one.

-Reel with care, old chum.
-This baby’s... all mine!

-[Wishiwashi squeaks]
-Baby?

Let me see. Oh, that's a Wishiwashi.

-I get enough Wishiwashi with you.
-[squeaks]

[grunts] This is the size of a truck.

-Don't let it get away.
-Get a grip!

Wobbu, Wobbu, Wobbu...

[grunts]

[Bewear squeals and all scream]

[all yell and grunt]

[all] We're off with a new blast!

Wobbuffet!

[grunts] I wonder if they went home.

[Wishiwashi squeal]

♪ 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! ♪

[narrator] It’s extracurricular
activity time for our heroes on.

They're free to go wherever,
but where do they want to go?

Pika! Pika, Pika.

-Pika! [laughs]
-Pop! Pop!

-Lana, what are you doing with that rod?
-Performing maintenance.

I'm going to catch a Mega Gyarados.

A Mega Gyarados? Oh!

[Mega Gyarados roars]

Awesome! I had no idea you could do that!

-Kidding!
-Kidding? [grunts]

There’s no such thing as
a Mega Gyarados in the wild.

-Pop! Pop!
-Pika!

But I am going fishing.
Since we're on Akala, it’s ideal.

I’ll fish for its biggest catch.

Fishing, huh?

We all did that together before.

-Want to come, too?
-Oh, yeah!

-Pika! [grunts] Pikachu.
-Great. I'll catch the biggest one!

Oops. I don't have a fishing rod.

-[Lana] Here.
-Huh?

My family’s motto is always have a spare
fishing rod for friends. Use this, Ash.

[chuckles] Thanks a lot, Lana.

[Kiawe] Yeah, okay,
but if you're coming, at least help out.

[Mallow] Of course I will.

-Kiawe, where are you going?
-Everybody wants to come to my place.

Who wouldn't want to come?
It's a real dairy farm,

which means butter, cheese and yogurt,
made from fresh Moomoo Milk.

Let's not forget the main attraction,
the ice cream.

This is a perfect opportunity
to use fresh Moomoo Milk

to make super-delicious Pokémon food.

So that's the plan.
Want to come along, too?

Lana and I are fishing
for the biggest Pokémon.

All right. Then we'll see you later.

-Good luck.
-And have fun.

Make it a huge catch!

We’d better get a move on
as soon as we can.

Right.

Big catch, here we come.

-[moos]
-Hey. It’s you...

[screams]

-Olivia!
-Are you all right?

Pika?

-Are you going out on a fishing date?
-No, no, no, no, that’s not it at all.

We're going to find the biggest catch
you ever saw.

Well, by the time you get back from
all of that, I will have finished this.

[Ash] Whoa, a Z-Ring!

-You’ve got to be totally psyched.
-Hm.

Hey, Lana, aren’t you excited?

That means you’re going to be able
to work on your Z-Moves.

-It kind of doesn't feel real yet.
-Oh.

Hey, it'll feel real soon enough.
I know.

You said you were going to go fishing.
I’ve heard there's a huge Totem Pokémon

living in the lake near Brooklet Hill.

-Try there.
-Totem Pokémon?

[Ash] Wow, this place is huge.

[Rotom Dex] There’s a Totem Pokémon here?

-The way to find out is catch it.
-Let’s catch it.

-[fisherman] Just one moment, young ones.
-Huh?

Hello, who are you?

I’m called the master fisherman
of Akala Island.

Master fisherman?

If you want to battle with this lake’s
Totem Pokémon, you’ll need my permission.

Huh? Your permission?

That’s correct. I’ve been a master
fisherman for years

and I've been battling that big monster
for years as well.

So scary, it’s never been caught
even once.

And this scar is proof
of our many struggles over the years.

-Whoa!
-Pika.

[clears throat] But anyway,
the Totem Pokémon will refuse to battle

anyone it does not deem worthy.

If you two have what it takes,
then I am here to judge if that’s true.

-Judge us, please.
-What she said.

-I want to catch the Totem Pokémon.
-Me, too.

Then I want to see you catch
a Feebas right here and now.

Feebas, the Fish Pokémon,
a Water type.

Feebas are tough
and can live in polluted water.

-Cool. That’s all we need to do?
-You're green!

That's why I detest amateurs.

-Green?
-Yes!

The Feebas in this lake aren't as easy
to catch as you obviously assume.

In the years that
I've been a master fisherman,

I've only recently had success
in catching a single one,

-because they're that difficult.
-Fifty years?

-He distinctly said before.
-[clears throat]

Regardless, this isn’t a Pokémon
a mere amateur could catch.

[yells] I caught one.

Pop!

[master fisherman laughs]

Now will you allow me to battle
the Totem Pokémon?

Huh?

[clears throat] Over my year career as
a master fisherman, it is the first time

I've seen a Feebas caught with
such remarkable effortlessness and ease.

-Good. You may proceed.
-All right!

-Wow, Lana, that was awesome!
-But now he said years.

However, the only way to battle
the Totem Pokémon is with a boat.

Did you bring a boat along with you?

Huh? No, we didn't.

Well, I might consider lending you a boat,
but the rental fees are expensive.

[both] Huh?

But this time, I'd be willing to lend you
a boat in exchange for this Feebas.

-Uh! That thing will keep us from sinking?
-Of course.

That boat has been with me
the past years as a master fisherman

in a struggle with the Totem Pokémon.
Observe. The scars of my many battles.

[both chuckle]

Now it's years
and his scars have a tendency to fall off.

You’ll never find time
to catch a Totem Pokémon

if you keep sweating the small stuff.

-Uh!
-[Wishiwashi squeaks]

-Wishiwashi?
-What's a Wishiwashi?

Pikachu?

Wishiwashi, the Small Fry Pokémon,
a Water type.

In a tough spot, their eyes tear up,
which gives it the look of crying.

[Ash] Hey. Is it hurt or something?

I think so.

Hold on just a moment.

You'll be all right now.
You are very brave.

Wishiwashi! Wishi!

Wishiwashi!

-I hope we meet again sometime.
-[squeaks]

[Ash grunts]

Pika! Pika, Pika.

Okay, here I go. [grunts]

-Pika?
-Hey look, I've already got a bite.

[grunts]

Whoa, no!

-Magikarp! Karp! Karp! Karp! Magikarp!
-[grunts and groans]

[laughs] It looks like
that Magikarp really likes you.

Hm?

I sense a big catch. [grunts]

[whimpers]

[squeaking]

[growls]

-[whimpers]
-Popplio, what is it?

-Huh? Whoa!
-Lana! [grunts]

-That’s it. The real thing.
-Huh?

Hmm?

[roars]

[both yell in fear]

Pika!

-Unknown Pokémon. Unknown Pokémon.
-Could it be... the one?

Ha-ha! In my years
as a master fisherman,

I finally get my first glimpse
of the Totem Pokémon.

-[hums jaunty tune]
-Huh?

I thought you told us you battled it.

You’ve got to stop living in the past.

This means the Totem Pokémon
has agreed to battle against that girl.

No way!
You're going to battle the Totem Pokémon?

I will accept the challenge.

[all] Who’s that Pokémon?

It’s Wishiwashi.

[Wishiwashi] Wishiwashi! Wishiwashi!

[Kiawe] Hey, you promised you’d help.

But this freshly made cheese is
just too yummy to stop eating.

[grunts greedily] And next,
I’ll just have to try the butter.

Mm! So delicious.

This is amazing. I only added
fresh Moomoo Milk to your food

-and look how much more you enjoy it.
-Vul!

Put me down for another Moomoo ice cream
and make it a double.

Dema!

This is hopeless. [sighs]

I hope Ash and Lana
are having a great time fishing now.

[grunting]

You're not getting away!

[Ash screams]

-Pika!
-Pikachu.

-Pika!
-Uh! Lana?

[Lana] I'm all right.
But it sure is strong. [grunts]

[grunting]

[all scream and groan]

[grunting and yelling]

[Rotom Dex] Ash, no!

[gasp and coughs]

-There you are, Ash.
-That was scary.

-Hold on, where's Pikachu?
-Pi! [gasps] Pikachu! Pi!

[Ash] Pikachu!

-Wait, that's... Get out of there, quick!
-[grunts] Pi! Pi!

Oh, no!

[grunts]

Pi! Pika! Pika! Pi! [grunts]

-Pika!
-Pikachu, over here!

-Popplio, go and help Pikachu, quick.
-Pop!

Pika!

-Pikachu, you okay?
-[pants] Pika!

Thanks, Popplio, that was great.

[growls]

[grunts] No, you don’t!

In my year career
as a master fisherman,

that’s the most amazing battle
I've ever seen.

His career keeps growing.

[Lana grunts]

Hope I don’t get pulled in!
It sure feels like it.

[yaps]

Can you distract the Totem Pokémon
using Bubble Beam?

[yaps]

[squeals]

[growls]

[squeals]

[growls]

[whimpers]

You’re right.
It’s a scary thing for you to go through.

[whimpers]

Sure, Popplio. I'll handle this. Thanks.

-No, Lana!
-Stay back!

But you can't reel it in all by yourself.

That’s where you're wrong. [groans]

[whimpers]

[grunts]

[whimpers]

[whimpers]

[grunts]

[yaps]

-Popplio!
-[yaps]

Pop!

[growls]

[squeals]

-[growls]
-[Lana grunts] Whoa! Uh!

[yaps]

Pop!

[grunts]

[squeals]

[grunts]

[Pikachu] Pika!

-Whoa, you’re almost there.
-Pika! Pika!

[squeals and howls]

-No, Popplio.
-What happened?

-Huh?
-[bellowing]

[gasps] Alomomola.

-Huh?
-Alomomola, the Caring Pokémon.

A Water type, it can use Heal Pulse
to help friends recover.

-Pika?
-Leave that one to me.

All right. [grunts]

-I got a bite!
-Pika!

-Whatever you do, don't try to rush it.
-I know that already.

Now's your chance. Do it!

-[both grunt]
-All right, you two, good luck.

-Okay, Pikachu, get ready.
-Pika!

[grunts]

[yells]

[wails]

Now, Pikachu. Use Electro Ball!

Pika! Pika! Pi!

[groans]

[gibbers]

[squeals and wails]

-All right!
-Pika! Pika!

Lana, we’re all set.

Thanks very much, Ash.
Now it's my turn to win this!

[fisherman] The Totem Pokémon is
the perfect rival for a master fisherman

with a career spanning
years and one month.

Oh, good grief.

I think you've almost got it, Lana.

[Popplio grunts]

Pop! Pop!

Popplio!

-Huh!
-Pika!

[yaps]

[growls]

[grunts]

[growls]

[grunts]

Popplio, now!

[squeals]

[roars]

[squeals]

-Huh?
-An Aqua Jet.

[squeals]

-Awesome.
-Pika!

-Wishiwashi?
-Huh?

That’s amazing.

The Totem Pokémon was really a huge group
of Wishiwashi schooled together.

That’s right. Exactly. Of course.
Fishing for the Totem Pokémon,

then discovering its true identity.

Brilliant! Coming from a master fisherman
with a career of years and two months.

[Ash] Wishiwashi are small,
but together are strong.

Hm.

-Huh?
-Huh? That's the Wishiwashi from before.

[squeaks]

-Is that a water-type Z-Crystal?
-[squeaks]

-That’s for me?
-[squeaks]

Wishi!

Thanks for the fun fishing Pokémon battle.
What great spirit.

-Wishi!
-[squeaking]

You were great, Popplio,
and you can use Aqua Jet now.

Pop!

[Olivia] This is what you waited for.

Thanks so much. It’s beautiful.

Whoa! That’s great. Looks so cool.

-Lana. It can’t be.
-But is it?

Waterium Z
and I got it by catching Mega Gyarados.

[all] Mega Gyarados?

Kidding.

[all groan]

[narrator] After a battle with the Totem
Pokémon, Lana has received a Z-Crystal.

Now we wait to see what kind of Z-Move
Lana will demonstrate,

using her new Z-Ring...

Wishi! Wishi! Wishiwashi! Washi!

...as the journey continues.
