05x24 - A Tyrogue Full of Trouble

[bunniefuu]

male narrator: Still working
toward his entrance

into the Johto League,

Ash continues on
to Mahogany Town

and his next gym battle.

Hoping to gain extra time,

our heroes have decided
to take a shortcut.

- Huh?

- Hey, look. Daylight.

- Yes! I knew this was right.

Let's go.

- Not so fast, Ash.
Wait up for us.

- Huh?
- Pika?

[singing]
- Pokémon!

- No time to question
my moves

I stick to the path
that I choose

Me and my friends
are gonna do it right

You'll never see us
run away from a fight

To be a Master
is my dream

All I've got to do
is believe

- I believe

- I've got a chance
to win

I'm on my way
to victory

- Pokémon!
- I can be a Champion

If I just believe

I'm on a Master Quest

- Master Quest

- I want the whole world
to see

- I believe

- I'm gonna be
the very best

'Cause all I've got to do
is believe in me

- Pokémon!

- Pika.
- Let's see.

- Tyrogue,
the Scuffle Pokémon.

Tyrogue is the evolved form
of Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan.

It has a small
but very energetic body.

- Well, I don't know
about the energetic part.

- There must be something wrong
with this Tyrogue.

It looks like it's unhappy.

- Togepi.

- It's unhappy, all right,
but about what?

- Pikachu.

- I'll bet you that
Tyrogue's hungry, that's all.

Hey, little buddy,
how about a snack?

Made it myself.

- Huh, doesn't look hungry.

- Pikachu.

- Maybe it just doesn't
like that kind?

You got any more, Brock?

- I think so.
Let me check my bag.

Hey, what are you doing?

- You get back here
right now.

- You can't just steal
other people's food.

- Pika!

- Tyrogue!

- Ah!
- Pika!

- Wait up.

- A Primeape and a Mankey.

- They must be
Tyrogue's friends.

- You're not getting away.

Bayleef.

- Bay.

- Bayleef,
Vine Whip attack, now.

- Bay.

- What's that?

- That Tyrogue
seems to be as strong

as it is slick and crafty.

- But you're still better,
Bayleef.

[all gasp]

- Tyrogue.

- [screams]

- Hitmonchan.

- Hitmonlee.

- Lee!
- Monchan!

- Lots of energy.
Let's go!

Just let them go for now.

Hey, I hope you kids
are all right.

- Yeah, we're fine, thanks.

- That was awfully nice of you
to help us out like that.

- Togepi.

- No problem.
Just glad you're safe.

I'm assuming since you're headed
in this direction

that you're on your way
to Mahogany Town, am I right?

- Yeah, we're on our way
to the Mahogany Gym

so I can earn another badge and
qualify for the Johto League.

- Pika, Pika.

- That's quite a dream
you have there, kid.

- I've been at this
for a while,

and so far I've earned
six badges.

- That's a Storm Badge.

That means you must have battled
at the Cianwood Gym

with the legendary
Master Chuck.

- How do you know Master Chuck?
- Pika?

- That's right, I guess
I should've told you earlier.

I'm Master Chuck's protégé,
Kiyo,

known for miles around
as Black Belt.

- Hitmonchan.
- Lee.

- Huh?

- So what are you
training for?

- It's called the P Grand Prix,
and it's a grueling event

that will stretch competitors
to their limits

and decide the next battling
Pokémon Champion.

- I guess there's no better
place to train

than in the mountains,
right?

- You can say that again.

Running up and down
these steep wooded trails,

I tell you, it sure helps
put you in tip-top shape.

- Hitmonchan.
- Hitmonlee.

- This may not be Mom's home
cooking, but please dig in.

all: Wow.
Thanks a lot, Kiyo.

- Pika.

- Delicious.

- You know, I keep wondering
why that Tyrogue ran off

with all of our Pokémon food.

- That Tyrogue is always causing
problems for travelers

and for the people that live
down here in the foothills.

I'm not sure what to do.

- It's doing it
just for kicks?

- Kiyo!

- Hey, what's going on?

- I'm afraid that scoundrel
Tyrogue is at it again.

- Well, we'd better go.

- Check it out.

- You mean
that little Tyrogue did this?

- Afraid so.

And this is just
the tip of the iceberg.

That Pokémon's vandalized
the entire village.

- What a troublemaker.

- [lowing]

- There's the Tyrogue.
Over there.

- I'm right with you, Ash.

- It's a stampede.

- Everyone, run!

- Toge, Toge.
Toge, Toge.

- Togepi!

- Tyrogue!

Tyrogue!
- Huh?

- Togepi.

- Run! Get out of the way!

- I'll handle this one.

- [yells]

Give it up.
You won't get past me.

- [moos]

- Togepi!

Oh, my little Togepi.

Are you okay?

- Toge, Toge.
- Thank goodness.

- Hmm.

Escaped again.

- That Tyrogue
is certainly inspiring.

- Yeah, seeing's how
that Tyrogue

tore it up with them
Tauros out there

with its daring actions
and great aim

has inspired me to want it
working on our team.

- Then may I suggest to you both
that as Team Rocket scouts,

we've scouted us up
a winner.

- Wobbuffet.

- Losers, back to the showers.

- So why are we dawdling
when we should be drafting?

- You're so right.

Let's go now and recruit
our rookie of the year.

- And together we shall
hit a home run

right out of the ballpark.

- All right!

- I have had it.

- I think it's time
we go to Officer Jenny.

- I agree.

That Tyrogue deserves to be
thrown in jail now.

- I understand your anger,

but I have a better way
of dealing with this.

- So speak your peace.

- If you'll just give me
a little bit more time,

I'm sure that I can change
that Tyrogue for the better.

But you've got to give me
this one chance.

[all groan]

- All right, Kiyo.
If it means that much to you

then we'll give you
that chance.

- But mark my words,

if it destroys one more inch
of our property, that's it.

- Yes. I understand.

It's not that Tyrogue
is inherently bad,

but it seems to have a real
problem with other Pokémon

larger than itself.

And obviously
with humans too.

- Yeah, remember how
it went out of its way

to protect Togepi before?

- Togepi.

- Hey, that's right, Misty.
- Pikachu.

- You know, my heart really goes
out to the poor little thing.

- Why do you say that?

- That Tyrogue
is an abandoned Pokémon.

- Abandoned Pokémon?
- Pika?

- That's right.

Apparently its Trainer
just left it

right in the middle of some
very rigorous training.

Huh?

- [groaning]

- When I first saw Tyrogue,

it was so weak and hungry
it couldn't walk.

- [whimpers]

- Rogue!

- Huh?

- Rogue!

Tyrogue. Tyrogue.

- Its Trainer's betrayal had
left Tyrogue enraged and bitter.

In order to cope with
the overwhelming sadness

of being abandoned,

Tyrogue's heart became
hardened and cold.

Like ice.

- So how are you gonna help it?

- Pika.

- I'm certain that Tyrogue
has great power,

and I want to test its strength
and have it battle with me

in the P Grand Prix

right alongside
Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee.

- The combination of Tyrogue's
awesome power

and your wisdom and energy
would be unstoppable.

- I'm sure that you
would win it.

- Togepi.

- It's more than that.

I must melt Tyrogue's heart,
and soon.

[all chatter]

- [chatters]

- Tyrogue.

- Yoo-hoo, sweet Tyrogue.

- As spokesperson
for Team Rocket,

I cordially invite you
to join up.

- Tyrogue?

- Yes, we're all pretty nasty

in our own dysfunctional ways.

- So join us
in the next ten minutes

and we'll include,
free of charge,

a beautiful Team Rocket
drinking glass

with your membership,
paid up, of course.

So don't delay.
Operators are standing by.

- I agree that smoldering anger
can sometimes be attractive,

but that can get old.

- [growls]

- Huh?

- Tyrogue!

all: Why?

Looks like Team Rocket's
blasting off again!

- [chattering]

- Tyrogue. Tyrogue.

- Who's that Pokémon?

It's Spinarak.

- This is one of Tyrogue's
favorite spots.

Come on out, Tyrogue.

How about a little
friendly battling?

- Monchan. Monchan.

- Hitmonlee.

- Come on.

- Tyrogue.

- Tyrogue.
- Pika.

- I've been looking forward
to a battle with you

for a long, long time,
Tyrogue.

- Tyrogue.

- Go, Hitmonchan, now.

- Hitmonchan.

- Monchan.

- All right, Punch attack,
Hitmonchan.

- Hitmonchan.

Hitmonchan. Hitmonchan.
Hitmonchan.

- It's not getting hit at all.

- Tyrogue can read
Hitmonchan's punches

just as fast
as they can be thrown.

- Come on, Hitmonchan,
you can do it.

- Pika, Pika.

- Now put your heart into it!

Finish the job
with your Mega Punch!

- Hitmonchan.

Hitmonchan.

Chan!

- [gasps]

- Tyrogue.

- Hitmonchan.

- Oh, no.

- Hitmonchan, return.

- Hitmonchan.

- Hitmonlee.
- Let's go, Hitmonlee.

- Lee!

- Now let's show Tyrogue
the power of your Rolling Kick.

- Hitmonlee.

- Tyrogue. Tyrogue.
Tyrogue.

Tyrogue. Tyrogue. Tyrogue.
- Hitmonlee.

- Tyrogue. Tyrogue. Tyrogue.
Tyrogue. Tyrogue.

- What's that?
- It's Double Team.

- How do you battle
against that?

- Togepi.

- Hitmonlee!

Lee!

- Hitmonlee can't tell which one
of them is the real Tyrogue.

- Rogue.

- Hitmonlee!

Hitmonlee.

- Okay, Hitmonlee. Return.

Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee,

you both fought well
and did your best.

I'm proud of you.

- Ty.

- Tyrogue.
- Pika, Pika!

- Hey, what's the meaning
of this?

- [cackling]

- Prepare for trouble
as Tyrogue sails away.

- And make it double,
because we really can't stay.

- Pow! To protect the world
with a mean right hook.

- Wham! To unite all peoples
with my kickboxer look.

- To denounce the evils
of honest fights.

- To extend our arms
and punch out your lights.

- Jessie.
- James.

- And Team Rocket's the winner
at the speed of light.

- So surrender at once, because
we've just won this fight.

- That's right.

- Team Rocket!

- You just don't know
when to quit.

- Pikachu.

- We have Tyrogue all tied up

in our new Team Rocket
recruitment agreement.

- What's that
supposed to mean?

- It means that Tyrogue here has
become a newly appointed member.

- Its gift for mischief and
thieving will come in handy.

We also like the smashing
and wrecking stuff too.

- Wobbuffet.

- Now this is a blast.

- Wobbu.

- You won't get away
with this.

- Pika, Pika!

- That's right.

- [yells]

- What was that?

- Shall we just prepare
to blast off?

- Wobbuffet.

- [yells]

[all scream]

- We're dropping
like a dumbbell.

- Don't worry, my friend.

Nothing is going
to hurt you anymore.

[all scream]

- [screams]

- Tyrogue, are you
all right?

- Tyrogue. Tyrogue.

- Oh!

- [groaning]

- Tyrogue, I believe in you.

I know what
you've been through.

You've got to forgive
and forget the past.

- Rogue.

- But now you've got
to believe in me.

I need you to trust in me,
Tyrogue.

You've got to open up
your heart!

- That cheap old
muscle trick again?

- Come on back with us, Tyrogue,
and tag along with our team.

We're more fun.

- Yeah, who needs
that Atlas wannabe

when you can come with us

and be with a real tower
of strength?

- Wobbu.
- Hold on.

- Oh, they've sent in
the twerp reserves.

- Go, Onix.

- Onix, get that boulder
out of here.

- [roars]

- [screams]

- Hey, Kiyo.
- Are you hurt?

- You kidding me?

I do that every morning
before breakfast.

We'll be just fine.

- Rogue.

- Hmm.

- Tyrogue.

- All right,
enough of that mush.

Now it's time
for the crush.

- Yeah. We won't give it back
without a fight.

- And fighting for things
that don't belong to us

is our specialty.

- Wobbuffet.

- All right, Arbok, go.

- You too, Weezing.

- Arbok, Poison Sting attack,
now.

- Go, Weezing.
Sludge attack.

- Onix, stay and take it.

- [roars]

- Pikachu, give them
a Thunderbolt now.

- Pikachu!

- Weezing!

- All right, Onix.
Tackle attack.

- [roars]

[all scream]

- If we leave the fight early,
do we lose?

- Do you suppose we could just
say we had to catch a flight?

- Yeah, a flight of fancy.

- Here we go.
- Here we go.

Cue the blastoff line!

- Wobbu!

- Tyrogue, I now challenge
you to do battle with me,

the remarkable Black Belt.

- Hmm.

- I can't believe Kiyo himself
is fighting the last round.

- His instructor,
Master Chuck,

teaches that in a true battle

there is no difference
between Pokémon and humans.

- Look at that pose.
Tyrogue sure means business.

- And that look of concentration
is amazing.

- Togepi.

- I think Kiyo really
got through to Tyrogue.

There won't be any
fooling around in this match.

- Now, the final battle.
Let's get busy.

What's wrong?
Is that all you can do?

- Tyrogue. Tyrogue. Tyrogue.

- There's that Double Team.

- I wonder if even Kiyo
can find the real Tyrogue?

- Tyrogue. Tyrogue. Tyrogue.
Tyrogue. Tyrogue. Tyrogue...

Tyrogue!

- He did it.
- Awesome.

- Pika!

- [yells]

- Tyrogue!

Tyrogue!

[screams]

- Pika!

- Great throw by Kiyo.

He turned Tyrogue's attack
completely around.

- Tyrogue.

[growls]

[sighs]

- It is my wish that we live
and train together.

- Rogue?

- We'll enter the P Grand Prix
and win it.

All right with you?

- Rogue?

- I promise
that I'll never leave you.

Allow me to train with you
and let me prove it.

- Rogue?

- It's decided.
We have a deal.

- That's so great, Tyrogue.

- Pika, Pika.
- Togepi.

- Wow, Kiyo, you really
got through to it.

- [grumbling]

- Primeape and Mankey,
I want you to come along.

- [chattering]

[laughter]

- Good-bye.
Good luck.

Show them who the winners are.

- Pika, Pika!

- Good luck
in the P Grand Prix.

Bye.
- Togepi.

- And tell Master Chuck
that we all say hello.

- I will.

Ash, good luck
at the Mahogany Gym.

- Tyrogue! Tyrogue!

male narrator: And so our heroes
have learned a valuable lesson

about the healing power
of true friendship,

while the next battle and
the next badge wait just ahead.
