[panting]

Now, Dartrix! Razor Leaf!

[grunting]

Man, are you good! All right!

-[narrator] This young man is named Hau.

-All right. Keep it up!

He's training hard,

along with his partner, Dartrix.

Let's train as hard as we can!

And one day,

we'll take on my gramps together.

What do you say?

[cooing]

-[grunts]

-Huh?

[yelping]

[all whimper]

Hey, you guys.

What are you doing out here?

-Pika.

-Nice to meet you.

[laughs nervously] Alola!

A Z-Ring! Whoa!

-Huh?

-Pika?

-Excuse me, what's wrong?

-Wow, you can use a Z-Move?

Did you have a grand trial with my gramps?

Huh?

♪ Rise

If you're prepared for the challenge ♪

♪ Rise to the challenge ♪

♪ Rise if you're a champion at heart

Rise to the challenge ♪

♪ Take my hand, we'll train as one ♪

♪ And triumph together

Rise to the challenge ♪

♪ Nothing's gonna stand in our way ♪

♪ Stronger and stronger

We'll rise to the challenge of life ♪

♪ Pokémon! ♪

[Ash] No Stone Unturned!

Awesome. So Kahuna Hala is your grandpa?

That's right, but I'm jealous.

I really want an all-out battle

with my gramps too.

He's your grandpa.

So then you should be able to battle him

any time, right?

Nope. Not ever.

My gramps is always telling me

that he still has to go really soft on us.

-Right, Dartrix?

-[coos]

-He does?

-Pikachu.

Pika! Pika!

See, my dad and I have been away

from Alola for quite a long time.

We just got back,

and I'm thinking I can finally take on

the island challenge!

Yeah! Go get them!

Of course,

I really want to start things off

with my gramp's grand trial first.

We've been training extra hard!

Hey, have you been training, too?

We're just here looking around.

There are still lots of places

on Melemele Island

-we haven't seen yet.

-Pikachu!

So, that's how we came across you two.

Dartrix was just so awesome

we forgot to introduce ourselves.

It sure is. My pride and joy.

That's Dartrix.

[coos]

Dartrix is the evolved form

of Rowlet, right?

Say! It looks like that's my cue!

Dartrix. The Blade Quill Pokémon.

A Grass and Flying type.

It throws its darts,

which are very sharp feathers, at enemies.

Quite image-conscious,

it's always preening.

Now it's my turn!

Meet my partner... Rowlet!

[cooing]

Hey, looks like Rowlet's fast asleep.

Yeah. It loves my backpack.

Rowlet's an extremely gifted sleepyhead.

All right, Rowlet. Time to wake up.

Meet your evolved form... Dartrix!

[cooing]

-[gasps]

-What's up?

Well, Dartrix hates the look of bedhead.

It's very fashion-conscious.

[cooing]

-Rowlet sure loves sleeping.

-Pikachu.

[panting]

Dartrix really loves a challenge.

Rowlet is so chill.

[coos]

[sighs]

Uh, hey, Ash?

You're not saying Rowlet's the one

who defeated my gramps, are you?

-Yup. And his Crabrawler.

-Pika!

His Crabrawler?

[Rotom]

It was an authentic come-from-behind win.

That's so cool!

Crabrawler's the Pokémon

Dartrix could never beat!

The coolest!

Both you and Rowlet have my respect!

I know! How about you and me battle?

Really? It sounds like a lot of fun!

Let's give it a go, Dartrix!

[cooing]

-Wow, Dartrix says yes!

-All right!

-[coos]

-Pika?

-[grunts]

-[coos]

Listen up, Rowlet.

Dartrix says it wants to battle you.

And I'd really like to battle with you!

[coos]

[both growling]

-Let's have some real fun with this, okay?

-[coos]

All right! Let's get busy!

-[coos]

-Pika! Pika!

I'll be the referee.

So it's Rowlet versus Dartrix.

-Let the battle begin!

-[bell rings]

Dartrix, use Leaf Blade!

[cooing]

Rowlet, here it comes!

[cooing]

[both gasp]

[thuds]

[sighs]

-You've gotta wake up, Rowlet!

-Pikachu.

Are you finished sleeping now?

[cooing]

That Rowlet's pretty funny!

Yeah, and that's not all! Razor Leaf, Go!

-[grunts]

-[gasps]

You see? That's being awake!

We'll use it, too! Razor Leaf!

[grunts]

[screeches]

Uh-oh!

Comparing the same attacks,

the evolved form will be superior

to the unevolved form!

You two are pretty good! All right!

Glad you agree with me.

Wrap it up with Leaf Blade!

Wait til you see our Z-Move.

-Huh? Oh, no!

-Pika! Pika!

-[screeches]

-[thuds]

-Pika! Pika!

-Here it is!

-[Rowlet yelps]

-[Ash shouts]

[coos wearily]

Rowlet is unable to battle.

Dartrix wins it!

All right! We won the battle!

-You did it. Congrats.

-[cooing]

We just beat someone who beat my gramps

and it feels just great!

[coos happily]

Sorry about that.

-My reaction time was way too slow.

-Pikachu.

Wow. Dartrix's speed and power

were both on a level

that's way above Rowlet's.

[growling]

-The battle's over. You can stop.

-Pika. Pika.

Rowlet's mind is fully in battle mode now.

Really? This late?

Rowlet sure does take things

at its own pace.

Pika. Pikachu.

-[coos]

-Pika!

[coos in frustration]

I know. It's frustrating.

Hey. Let's do it again. What do you say?

You're on! Let's go!

Oh, yeah, I have to meet up

with my dad pretty soon.

I need to head on back.

Huh? [sighs]

Sorry.

But how about we meet up here tomorrow

and battle then?

Battling with you is great.

It's a whole lot of fun.

-Cool! Have we got a deal?

-Mm-hm. Sure do!

-[laughs]

-[cooing]

Pika. Pika!

Hear that? So, are we on for tomorrow?

-[coos excitedly]

-Pika.

Who's that Pokémon?

It's... Dartrix!

[Dartrix coos]

Whoa. That was some story!

Both Hau and Dartrix are really great

and we'll battle tomorrow too!

A rematch, huh?

Mm-hm. I want a chance to beat him

and battling with him

is a whole lot of fun!

So, that explains

Rowlet's behavior tonight.

[coos determinedly]

Pika. Pika.

-[coos aggressively]

-Pika!

Pika.

Rowlet?

I promise I won't mess up this time,

so let's go for the win!

Hey, it seems to me that a time like this

calls for learning a brand-new move.

-Brand-new move?

-Rowlet's moves!

Searching.

When the Masked Royal and Incineroar

learned Cross Chop to win a match,

it brought tears to my eyes!

Wow! I wanna hear all about it!

You know Cross Chop

is based on martial arts moves

when they break ceramic tiles.

Now, hold it a second.

We are talking about Rowlet.

Aw!

But still, I seem to recall

the Masked Royal has a motto

that says when you're lost,

you simply go back to your roots.

Go back to your roots?

-Like going back to the beginning.

-Right.

It could be an important place,

or something memorable you both did.

Right! That means only one spot!

[coos]

Rowlet? Tomorrow you're gonna learn

a brand-new move!

[coos]

We're here.

This is the place where you and I met

for the first time.

The place where we became partners.

[Rowlet cooing]

Now there's no doubt that all

that you're gonna learn a new move!

Based on what proof?

Based on? What do you mean?

What do I mean? You need proof!

Ah, what's the difference?

This place just gives me a feeling.

[cooing]

-[coos]

-[grumbling]

[both chattering]

Wow. Look at that Trumbeak.

It was sitting in Rowlet's old nest.

-[screeches]

-[coos]

-[screeching continues]

-[grunts]

-Trumbeak!

-[chattering]

[chattering]

Toucannon.

Hey, there they are! Look at them all!

[chattering]

-Toucannon.

It's been a long time. Good to see you.

Toucannon.

You're just who I wanted to find!

-I thought you--

-Pika?

Toucannon.

[squawks]

-Huh?

-Pika?

It's a custom often found

among Flying types.

Huh? What are they doing?

The stomachs of some Flying types

can't digest the food

they like to gobble down whole.

To help, they swallow stones

to keep in their stomachs

and break up whatever food

that Pokémon ate.

That's a weird custom.

And I suggest you and Pikachu

never try it.

We're smarter than that. Aren't we, buddy?

Pi...

-No way! You know you can't do that!

-Pika! Pikachu.

[chattering]

[grunting]

-Huh?

-Pika?

They used b*llet Seed!

That was so powerful!

-Look. Hey, Ash, check this out.

-Huh?

[Rotom]

The b*llet Seeds we just saw used pebbles!

Wow. Those were the pebbles they ate?

According to research,

the move b*llet Seed is able to launch

a large variety of items

depending on the Pokémon's habits

and habitat.

That's awesome!

[chattering]

So Toucannon and Trumbeak

are trying to teach Rowlet

to use b*llet Seed!

But according to my data,

Rowlet can't learn b*llet Seed.

Huh? You sure?

But with a fighting spirit

Rowlet will learn it anyway!

Spirit isn't the issue here.

Trumbeak.

-[Rowlet coos]

-[clatters]

[gasping]

[retching]

[groans]

-Pika! Pika!

-You can do it, Rowlet!

Nobody expects you to get it right

on your very first try!

-[coos]

-Toucannon.

[chattering]

-I'll give it a try!

-Pika?

-Yeah! Here goes!

-Pika...

[munching]

-Pika.

-Ready?

[gasping]

That was just amazing!

[chuckles] Not bad if I do say so myself.

All you've gotta do is tense your muscles!

Pika?

And one more thing!

Never take your eyes off of the target!

Pikachu!

-[gasps]

-[coos]

-Pika!

-You're so good, buddy!

Pikachu.

Rowlet, these are the muscles

you tense up.

[chattering]

Hey, thanks for the great hints.

You both are really the best.

I'm so glad we came here.

[coos]

-[gasps] Not that stone!

-Huh?

-What's wrong with that?

-It may have been an Everstone.

-What's an Everstone?

-Pika?

It ensures that a Pokémon never evolves!

[screams]

Spit it out, now!

It's better to spit it out

using b*llet Seed!

Yeah, you're right. Got it.

-Tense up your stomach muscles...

-Ready, go!

Whoa, that's a relief. Huh?

[cooing]

-Pika?

-What was that for?

It swallowed it again!

[coos]

-I wonder if it's tasty.

-If we don't help, Rowlet won't evolve!

-Pika.

-[coos]

Pika.

Pika.

Pika.

[gasping]

That was really less of a b*llet Seed

and more of a Seed b*mb!

A Seed b*mb? All right!

[grunting]

Great, Rowlet! You've perfected Seed b*mb!

[gasps] And you're okay with that?

[gasps]

-Hau! I made it!

-Alola, you guys!

I'm sorry that I bailed on you yesterday.

But today I'm ready to go!

Great! We've been really looking forward

to this battle!

[both cooing]

Watch our special new attack.

No doubt you're gonna be surprised!

Really? So show me! I want to see it!

It's Rowlet versus Dartrix!

Let the rematch begin!

Check it out!

You're about to see our brand-new attack!

Use Seed b*mb!

[grunts]

Hey, did you see that?

[cooing]

A Seed b*mb? That's what it looks like?

[laughs]

And that Seed b*mb

we made up all by ourselves!

Yeah? Really?

It really is different

when you face a grand trial winner.

And there's plenty more too.

Get 'em using Peck!

-[grunting]

-[gasps]

Don't let it get to you. Use Razor Leaf!

[grunts]

[gasping]

-Rowlet!

-Pika!

[Hau] Now, use Leaf Blade!

[yelps]

-Rowlet!

-Use Razor Leaf again!

All right. Now Rowlet can't get away.

-Pika!

-Rowlet, use Seed b*mb!

I thought you'd try that.

Return it with Leaf Blade!

-Ah!

-Let's wrap it up.

Use Leaf Blade!

Rowlet, break out of those feathers now!

A Z-Move? But it's pinned down!

[grunting]

What's going on?

All right. Here we go with full power!

It's time for you to use Bloom Doom!

[cooing loudly]

Dartrix is unable to battle.

Rowlet is the winner!

-All right!

-Pika!

-Thank you, Dartrix. You gave it your all.

-[coos wearily]

[sniffling]

I've never felt like this before.

This feeling...

Is this what they call disappointment?

Hau?

You two were simply amazing!

I can't wait to try that Z-Move too!

You're gonna love it!

Full power is like nothing else!

[cooing]

And the next time we get together

and have a battle,

it'll be after I beat my gramps.

Sure. Good luck.

It'll be nothing less

than a Z-Move showdown!

-Yeah!

-Pika!

[coos excitedly]

-Aw, Rowlet.

-Pika.

No! It ate the Everstone again!

[snoring]

[laughing]

-Oh, well.

-Pikachu!

[narrator] A new friendship is made

as Ash and Hau promise to meet again.

And Ash's backpack holds a Rowlet

who won't evolve.

What does it mean?

As the journey continues!

[kids' voices] Where Are You Going, Eevee?

[yawning]

Eevee.

Eevee!

Eevee!

[sniffing]

[chattering]

[chattering]

Eevee!

Eevee!

[chattering]

-[gasps]

-[chattering]

Eevee!

Pika! Pika!

Eevee!

-Tsareena.

-Eevee?

[all gasp]

Eevee!
