20x40 - Balloons, Brionne, and Belligerence!

[bunniefuu]

Ah! Morning in Alola,
where Wingull happily take

to the blue skies, while Ash
and Mallow visit Lana's house.

I'm so glad to see
Popplio doing so well!

Thanks for coming
all this way.

After yesterday, it was
the only thing I had on my mind!

Yeah, that was
some surprise!

You can do it, Lana!

For sure!
I know you can!

Right.

Let's do it!

Hydro Vortex, let's go!

It's acting like...

Something's not right!

Popplio! Popplio!
You all right, Popplio?!

Popplio was wobbly
for a while afterwards...

Ah, it must
have gotten dizzy.

Yeah, and Popplio
was so close!

I don't think
Popplio gets it yet.

After all, it hasn't
really done much battling.

Hey, that's okay!

It'll get the hang of this!
After all, Lycanroc got it!

Popplio! We'll be fine!

What's going on?

Ta-da!

Amazing!

A Brionne!

What's a Brionne?

That's my cue
to give you an explanation!

Brionne.
The Pop Star Pokmon.

A Water type.

Brionne can make balloons
in all sorts

of colors, and performs a
joyful dance when its Trainer

needs cheering up.

It's adorable...

Ta-da!

Beautiful!

All right then, the
last act of our performance.

Darling Kanoa,
are you ready?

All ready on my end!

Way out there
is my dear Kanoa!

And now, as we prepare to borrow
from the unlimited powers of

Alola's Island Guardians...

We prove our love!

Ah! She's making a pose...

It's a Z-Move!

Embrace these!
Our love and courage! Use Hydro Vortex!

Yeah! Yeah yeah yeah!

Well, what do you know?

I'm surfing much, much
higher than usual!

That's incredible!

What a Z-Move!

Who thought you
could use it that way?!

Thanks. Thank you!
Thank you all so very much!

Oh, wow!

Hey, Lana,
what's wrong?!

Uh, please...

Make me your apprentice!
I beg of you!

Really?!
An apprentice?!

"BALLOONS, BRIONNE,
AND BELLIGERENCE!"

♪♪

I'm in complete
awe of what you did!

You were perfectly
in sync with your Brionne!

We want to use a
Z-Move like that, too!

Well, I understand, but...

Why not be her teacher?

We're going to stay
here for a while...

Thanks so much!

You see, dear, we're
called Seafolk, and we travel

the world's many oceans.

Many members of our
family buy things from different

lands and then sell them in
order to make a living.

But us? We're different.

I like to think of myself
as a treasure hunter!

What do you mean by that?

I hunt for treasure, of course!

Valuable treasure
from the ocean's bottom.

Mounds and mounds!
Then I haul it up.

Awesome!

Wow! I want to
see that sunken treasure!

Uh, well... I haven't
brought any up just yet.

Kanoa is in the middle
of pursuing his dream.

That's why Brionne
and I do what we do.

To put food on the table.

Uh huh...

But it's different this time!
I actually have a lead!

Look at all these
documents I found!

A very long time ago,
a ship was caught in a storm

near Melemele Island.

Supposedly, all its
cargo sank with the ship.

So I've come here to find
that sunken ship and all

of its valuable cargo!

Whoa.

And that's why Brionne and
I perform the way that we do.

But if you'd really
like to be my apprentice,

I can help you out.

We'll train together!

I won't let you down!
You'll see!

Good luck. Bye!
Shall we begin?

That would be amazing!

Popplio's so excited!

What kind
of training will you do?

So here's the thing:
From what you told me,

Popplio doesn't have enough
power to use a Z-Move.

So, first we need to do a
little strength training!

Right!

Brionne, make a balloon!

Brionne's balloons
are extremely strong.

Try popping them with one
of Popplio's balloons.

Okay, Lana,
let's go!

Right, Ida!

Make a balloon.
Go!

Here!

Nope. Not quite!
All right then, Brionne.

Make a balloon. Let's go!

Make it stronger!

Again!

One more time!

Go!

Again!

Right!

Stronger!

Let's go!

Again!

Right!

They're still at it...

Again!

Oh! Popplio!

Oh!
That's enough for today.

Right...

I'm back...

How'd you do?

I searched south,
but didn't find a thing.

Oh. I'm sure you'll
find something tomorrow!

Yeah.

You're so kind, Ida.

Well, of course.
He's my sweetheart.

Back when I was younger,
Brionne and I weren't able

to use Z-Moves either.

But Kanoa was always right
there, cheering us on.

Wow...

Yeah, Z-Moves are the best.

And it doesn't matter if the ocean
is calm or stormy... it will

always be there and willing
to help you any way it can.

Calm or stormy...

Calm or stormy...
We'll do it together. I know it.

Make a balloon! Let's go!

Success!

- YAY! We did it!
- Excellent!

Popplio, wow!

You, too, Lana!

Ida, I got a strong lead!

I met someone off of the
coast who said they had heard

of a sunken ship near here!

That's wonderful! You may
be on to something this time!

Yup! It's finally time
I find some treasure!

That's awesome!

Do you
know what the treasure is?

According to the
documents, it's Mystic Water!

It's Mystic Water?

Wait,
that's a treasure?

Mystic Water
enhances Water-type moves.

Updating
info right away!

I wanna see it!

All right! I'm sailing
out tomorrow.

Shall we all go?

All right!

It's going to be an
early morning, so that'll be

all for today's training.

Right!

I heard that.

Clear as a bell.

Following treasure
boy was worth it.

But soon we'll
be the treasure team.

Watch us gleam...

Who's that Pokmon?"

"It's Brionne!"

It should
be in this area.

Hey, tell me something!

How do you search the
bottom of the ocean?

That's where I need Ida
and Brionne's help comes in.

So, if you don't mind, dear...

Okay! Brionne,
it's all up to you!

Great!
Now you just hang tight...

So cool!

You two be careful! Please?

That's it!

Yup! No doubt about it!

Wait. That's...

How was it? Find anything?

I found the ship.
Just what I've been looking for.

But is there a problem?

It already has a visitor.

A visitor?

It's a Pokmon
called Dhelmise.

That's my cue again!

Dhelmise.
The Sea Creeper Pokemon.

A Grass and Ghost type.
The anchor Dhelmise throws

around can smash even
the hardest of rocks.

I know about that.

Dad told me to keep away
from it no matter what.

So is it going to be
hard to get the treasure?

Seafolk know how to deal
with all sorts of dangerous

Pokmon just like that Dhelmise.

You see, it likes to
attach itself to things like

ships. But Dhelmise are totally
uninterested in anything that

can't be used as parts,
which means... as long as

we approach without
agitating it, we're fine!

So, chums, how do
you like our new submarine?

Modern!
Feather-light pedaling!

Having motors to help us
push these pedals around makes

drudgery a balmy breeze!

Forward ho!

Yo, YO!

So! It looks like
their ship is in our sights!

There's nothing like
things going without a hitch!

Yo-ho-ho! Down we go!

On with the show!

Now what happened?!

A chain?

Is that a Pokmon?

Meowth? Translate.

Sounds like,
"What are you wacky weirdos

doing with my ship?"

Wait. Is that
the ship's captain?

"If we get any closer,
our cruising days are over."

Of all the...
That piece of sea junk!

We should put it on the
very next cruise to nowhere!

Uh...
It's called a Dhelmise.

It becomes uncontrollable
when angry and strong enough

to knock out a Wailord
with just one blow!

Oh...

I think we've
agitated it enough.

So what now?

You're not getting it,
bub! This wasn't our idea!

They put us up to this! Yeah.
Come on. You know. THEM!

Back up... and book!

Well then,
Brionne, one more time?

What's going on?!

Dhelmise!

It's so angry!

But why?

It doesn't matter! Come on!
We need to get below deck!

Right!

It's dragging us down!

Come on, buddy!

That's
one scary Pokmon...

Nice driving.
Nautical kudos.

Now that it's distracted,

time to get back to work.

What's that?
You want to continue?

Of course...
You know winners never quit!

That must be it!
Pikachu! Use Thunderbolt!

It didn't work!

Then I'll do it!
Brionne! Use Aqua Jet!

It's working!
Brionne, one more time!

That did it!

Brionne, you're the best!

Brionne! Hang in there!

Kanoa! We've got to get Brionne
to a Pokmon Center right away!

Ida!

Look at the waves!

Is it using Whirlpool?!

Get back inside, quick!

Right!

Are you done yet?

Take a deep breath,
all right?

This is all I have to work with.
What's going on?

I dunno,
but I'm getting seasick...

Steenee!

You okay?

It's dragging us
under with its Whirlpool!

The ship's not powerful
enough to break free!

Go, go go!

We'll NEVER say never!

Though it feels
like we're in the spin cycle!

I'm clean enough,
thank you!

Stop whining and PEDAL!

Oh, NO!

We're
off with a watery blast...

This is
getting really bad!

Ida! We'll use the Z-Move!

If we make a whirlpool
that circles in reverse...

We could neutralize it!

Right! Come on! Let's go!

What if...

But, Lana...

Okay, you're on!

That's the center!
Aim well!

Right!

Now, stay calm
and you'll be fine!

After all of that training
you did, I know you can do it!

Just believe in Popplio!

Popplio! Ready?

Here we go...
Past the ocean's horizon!

Now... Hydro Vortex!

Popplio! We did it!

How did it go?

Look...

Oh, wow!

Awesome!

It's beautiful!

So that's... Mystic Water!

For you.

What are you doing?

For all the trouble
I've caused. And...

You're a sweetheart.

Oh, you're the sweetheart!

Oh, NO!

Congratulations on
mastering your Z-Move, Lana!

It's all
thanks to you, Ida!

Are you going
to continue searching

- the seas for treasure?
- Of course!

Remember,
we're the Seafolk!

The ocean will
always keep us connected.

I'm sure we'll
meet again someday.

I can't wait to see how
much my apprentice has grown.

Yay!

Under the watchful
eye, of IdaLana and Popplio

have mastered their Z-Move.

Now, their dreams for
success are sure to grow

larger and larger, just
like Popplio's balloons...

As the journey continues!
