[crowd cheering]


[SOLAR BEAM MOVE]


Bouffalant. Let's go.


[ATTACK]


[PAINED]


- That Solar Beam's a clean hit. - I knew it.


[all gasping]


Why would Bouffalant get hit on purpose?


'It could have dodged that easily.'


CILAN 'I wonder.'


[ROARING]


Bouffalant takes no damage at all!


'Looks like its battling spirit has been ignited.'


Bouffalant's Ability is Sap Sipper.


Sap Sipper?


But why? Trip knew it but used a Grass type move anyway.


That's right, Bouffalant's ability is Sap Sipper


so Grass-type moves increase its attack power


instead of doing damage, watch.


[ROARING]


My Bouffalant is unstoppable when it gets like this.


TRIP You may think so, but I'll just


have to prove you're wrong.


- And that's not all I'll prove. - That's not all?


Then just what do you have in mind, young man?


Come on! My power, of course!


Then be my guest. I'm waiting right here.


[grunting] Use Dragon Tail!


[DRAGON TAIL MOVE]


[GROANING]


FREDDY 'Bouffalant's unfazed


by Serperior's attack.'


'The Unova Champion's powerful partner'


'has a towering b*ttlefield presence.'


[ALARMED]


Alright. Now show me what else you've got.


Right. Serperior, use Leer.


[LEER MOVE]


There it is, Serperior uses Leer


'and down goes Bouffalant's defense.'


[SIGHING]


Use Dragon Tail!


[DRAGON TAIL MOVE] Only Serperior can pull off


this next technique.


I let Bouffalant's attack power increase with Sap Sipper


so they'd let their guard down.


And using Dragon Tail from above is a trap too.


What I'm really aiming for is..


Where Bouffalant's most vulnerable. Go!


[DRAGON TAIL MOVE]


[REELING]


[ROARING]


Bouffalant's fine?


Hmm, excellent power and speed. A well-ex*cuted attack.


An ordinary Pokémon would've been defeated for sure


but you're battling a champion.


- Huh. - Now, use Head Charge.


[HEAD CHARGE MOVE] Dodge it, Serperior.


[DODGING]


[DAZED]


Serperior.


'Serperior is unable to continue.'


Bouffalant wins.


And that means, the winner is Alder the champion.


'Alder ends the battle with just one attack.'


'A brave challenge by Trip for sure'


'but he falls short of victory.'


'Once again, Alder proves why he's a champion.'


Awesome. Alder's got some battling style.


[AMAZED]


It's kind of scary, if you ask me.


[PONDERING]


Alder battles completely differently from Cynthia.


[THOUGHTFUL]


His style is bold and aggressive.



Spicy, with a combination of rich ingredients


one could never ignore.


Serves him right, that's what that kid deserves


for having the nerve to beat me.


Burgundy, you know, with you, they broke the mold.


Oh, great job as always.


Such a good friend. [LOVINGLY]


[chuckles] Hey, cut it out!


[laughs]


Wow, Alder sure looks happy.


[HAPPY] There goes Trip.


- Alder? - What is it?


I didn't stand a chance against you.


Won't you please tell me what I did wrong in our battle?


I must have been lacking something.


You really didn't do anything wrong.


You weren't lacking anything.


But you beat me.


You kept me from showing you how strong I've become.


- So what if I did? - Huh.. Huh?


Thinking back, you asked me the same thing a while ago.


'I'm pretty sure I know the answer'


but do you have any admiration for a man like me?


[scoffs] Winning, losing,


strength, weakness.


In the end, you and your Pokémon will determine all that.


There is no easy answer to what you ask.


But if I had to choose one thing, I'd say


'look at all you've learned from the day you started'


on your journey right up to today.


That may be the answer you seek.


Everything I've learned.


- Do you care for this Pokémon? - Huh?


It's obvious to me from our battle today that this Serperior


of yours certainly cares about you very much.


And that doesn't happen without a bond of trust between you two.


'Are you feeling that bond?'


- I am, Alder. Of course. - Hmm, then all is well.


My philosophy has always been that mutual trust


is more important than winning or losing.


Perhaps that's where your true strength lies.


- In your experience. - Right.


- Hmm. - Alder, sir?


Please, will you battle me next time we meet?


Ah. I'd be happy to, Tristan.


Hmm? [AWKWARD]


[scoffs] The name is Trip.


Huh?


FREDDY This concludes the Pokémon


World Tournament Junior Cup.


'Best wishes to all'


'of the amazing Trainers who competed.'


And, of course, a big thank you


to all the fans who supported them.


Here's hoping all your future journeys


will be fruitful ones.


'I can't wait to see how you and your Dragonite'


work it all out. I'd be grateful if I were you.


Thanks. Can't wait to see how it works out too.


See you soon.


I'm gonna train extra hard


to beat your Dragonite, so be ready. Ta-ta.


[chuckles]


Bien, I feel magnifique about the tournament.


I lost, but you did too.


And the battles were par excellence.


- Glad you enjoyed yourself. - I must be on my way.


But I wouldn't miss the chance to see you lose the next time.


There's no need for her to go out of her way.


- Huh? It's Trip. - Huh?


[CURIOUS]/[CALLING]


Alder's amazing, don't you think?


- Yeah. He's something, alright. - Hm?


I'm really glad I was able to battle him.


So we'll see you at the Unova League, won't we?


Right.


Is it me or is Trip different?


Perhaps, I'm sure after today's battle


Trip's going to come back even stronger.


You'd better train harder than ever.


You bet! [EMERGING]


What'd you think of all the battling?


[CHEERFUL]


Meloetta looks happy.


[FRIENDLY] [STARTLED]


Uh-oh. Meloetta, is something the matter?


Huh? [screaming]


Oh, well, that's great. We're not the first ones here.


- Hm? - Hey, what's shakin'?


They call me Cameron. Hm?


Whoa, it's a Pikachu!


'You've got a super rare Pokémon.'


Where's my Pokédex? Bingo.


- 'Uh, huh? Hold on.' - Huh?


I think you're trying to use a TV remote.


[gasps]


Yeah, I was just kidding.


POKEDEX Pikachu, the Mouse Pokémon


and the evolved form of Pichu.


Pikachu can help other Pikachu who are feeling weak



by sharing its electric current.


Is this the first Pikachu you've seen?


- Yep! - Hey, look at this Pokémon.


- I've never seen it. - It's Riolu.


- And it's pretty rare, too. - 'Oh.'


POKEDEX Riolu, the Emanation Pokémon.


Riolu has the power to see and understand emotions


like happiness and anger in aura waves.


Wow. So you're a Riolu.


What a cutie. Awesome to meet you. Ha-ha-ha.


- Hey, hands off! - Huh?


- What's with you? - Sorry.


RIOLU [HOPPING]


AXEW/PIPLUP [CURIOUS]


Okay, whatever. So, hey, I'm Cameron.


Whoa. You guys are really early.


So, when did you get here?


It's totally great to see you all


but I wanted to be first in line.


At least, that was my plan.


Man, you guys beat me to the punch.


So, which one of you guys got here first?


- Here first for what? - Wait, don't tell me.


You wouldn't by any chance be here to enter the Junior Cup?


Of course.


[CATCHING]


Starting now, this is my space, 'kay?


Hey, Cameron, the Junior Cup is already over.


Huh?


[EXPLAINING]


RIOLU/AXEW [SHOCKED]/[AGREEING]


What? I thought it started tomorrow.


[EXASPERATED]


Here's our entry prizes.


Not again! It can't be true.


Why does this always happen to me?


[grunting]


I've got it!


Alder's still gotta be around here, right?


Maybe I can get his autograph. [all gasp]


It's been real. See you. Let's go, Riolu.


[FRIENDLY]


- What a guy. - Hurricane Cameron.


[CURIOUS]


GROUP Who's that Pokémon?


GROUP It's Riolu.


[EXERTION]


This is Zager. Meloetta is on the move.


JAMES Roger. Not to worry.


DR. ZAGER 'Report current status.'


Good news. Our sonar has pinpointed an entrance.


[rumbling]


JESSIE Good.


Meowth, the way is clear for the submarine.


'Let's search the interior.'


Forward this image to Dr. Zager right away.


MEOWTH 'Roger that.'


Ah. We're finally here. PIKACHU [HAPPY]


JERVIS You all must be exhausted.


I'm sure you'll sleep quite well tonight.


MELOETTA [SINGING] Huh?


It's Meloetta.


What an awesome song.


[AWED]


Just a little more and I'll have all the data that I need.


Looks like Meloetta's singing out


towards the sea, I wonder why.


- Perhaps, the sea is its home. - Really?


[GREETING]


Hey, Meloetta, do you come from the sea?


[PLAYFUL]


[chuckles] It's a secret.


I think it's time we got on our way.


[all gasp]


So, are you two heading back to Sinnoh?


No, Johto. There's a contest being held there soon.


The Wallace Cup! [FAMILIAR]


Right, it's in the Johto region this year.


We need to start getting ready, Piplup and all of us.


What's the Wallace Cup?


There's an amazing Pokémon coordinator named Wallace.


And the Wallace Cup is a special contest he hosts every year.


The location changes each time the event is held.


But each and every grand festival


recognizes the Wallace Cup Ribbon.


I wanna use everything we've learned


from our Unova journey in our contest performances.


[EXCITED]


You're gonna do great.


You'll be a top coordinator.


[ENCOURAGING]


You know, I'm kind of sad.


[GLOOMY] We're sorry you have to go.


But I'm sure I'll see you soon.


Hold on, before you go, let's have a battle.


- Please? - Huh? A battle?


With me. You battled Cilan, and then Iris at the Junior Cup


and I'm the only one who hasn't had a chance to battle you.


[EXCITED] Right, let's do it.


[READY]



Watch us battle, okay, Meloetta?


[AGREEMENT]


It's one-on-one, and it'll be over


when one side's unable to continue.


You got it. Okay, let's see.


Now, Pikachu, I choose you!


[DETERMINED]


Well, in that case.


[VOLUNTEERING] Huh?


I'll use this. Quilava, Spotlight.


[EMERGING] [DEVASTATED]


DAWN 'Sorry, Piplup.'


I'm afraid Pikachu's Electric type moves


are way too effective on you.


[DISAPPOINTED]


'Alright, it's Pikachu versus Quilava.'


Ready, set, battle begin.


Let's start this thing out with Quick Attack.


[QUICK ATTACK MOVE]


Okay, Quilava, use Swift.


[SWIFT MOVE] [DODGING]


Now, Flame Wheel. [FLAME WHEEL MOVE]


Dodge it! [DEFENSIVE]


Electro Ball.


[ELECTRO BALL MOVE] Flamethrower!


[FLAMETHROWER MOVE] [expl*si*n]


[AWED]


- Your Quilava's awesome. - So is Pikachu.


Can't let my guard down.


Well, this is really tense.


That's because they know each other so well.


'Neither of them can relax for even a second.'


Smoke Screen!


[SMOKE SCREEN MOVE]


[ALARMED]


Thunderbolt! Let's go!


[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]


[CONFUSED] Alright, now use Iron Tail.


[IRON TAIL MOVE]


Flamethrower!


QUILAVA/PIKACHU [FLAMETHROWER MOVE]/[PAINED]


[LANDING]


[GROWLING]


- Huh. - Unbelievable.


I'm aware that Fire is strong against Steel


but I never thought anyone would use


Flamethrower against Iron Tail like that.


That goes to show how far Dawn has come on her journey.


Watching Trainers battle reveals much of what


they've experienced along the way.


Ash, Dawn, Pikachu


and Quilava are putting everything


they've learned on their journeys right out there.


'You can see it in the expressions on their faces.'


Alright, Quick Attack! [QUICK ATTACK MOVE]


Use Flame Wheel! [FLAME WHEEL MOVE]


[expl*si*n]


[LANDING]


[THREATENING]


CYNTHIA 'That's it!'


- Huh? - Huh?


I declare this battle a draw.


Excellent. Brilliant battling.


I couldn't begin to tell you who won.


Cynthia thought we were great.


[EXCITED]


Wow, Quilava, you battled really well.


[LOVING]


[HAPPY]


They were really strong, don't you think?


They had me nervous.


[AGREEMENT]


[HAPPY]


[FRIENDLY]


[ENTHRALLED]


ANNOUNCER 'The plane from Undella Town


to Johto's Blackthorn City'


'is now ready for boarding.'


'Please have your boarding pass available for the attendant..'


Dawn, lots of luck when you compete in the Wallace Cup.


And make sure you win it, no matter what.


[ENCOURAGING] No need to worry.


And good luck to you at the Unova League.


[GLEEFUL]


Thanks. I'll do my best.


And, Iris, I hope you and Dragonite grow


'closer and closer.'


Thanks, Dawn. I'll be a dragon master, just you wait.


I promise I'll let you know how the Wallace Cup turns out.


Great. Now, don't forget.


Cynthia?


Thank you for everything you did for us.


See you back in Sinnoh.


Right. And please be sure to give Wallace my regards.


Right.


Do you know where Meloetta went?


I know it was here a minute ago. Meloetta's gotta be around.


[APPEARING]


ASH/IRIS/CILAN/DAWN Huh.


Meloetta, bye. Take care of yourself.



[TEARFUL]


Huh?


[EMERGING]/[CALLING]


[DEFENSIVE]


[ANNOYED]


[REELING]


[GROWLING]


[GROWLING]


[TEARFUL]


[CRYING]


[SOBBING]


[CONFUSED]


[DIRECTING]


[UNDERSTANDING]


[HAPPY]


Hurry. We're taking off.


[EXERTION] [SINGING]


ASH 'See you, Dawn!'


PIKACHU [CALLING]


IRIS 'Bye, Dawn!'


CILAN 'Best wishes! Have a safe trip!'


- 'No! It left without me.' - Huh?


[screeching]


- Cameron. - I can't believe it's you guys.


Ah. Who are you again?


[all gasping]


It's Ash!


[DISBELIEF]


You were planning to go to the Johto region too?


Can't put anything past you now, can I?


After all, the Unova League's being held


in Johto's Ecruteak City.


Johto?


Why would the Unova League be held in the Johto region?


Uh, don't ask me. I don't make the rules. I just follow them.


Thing is, I'm entering the Unova League too.


But they haven't said where it's happening.


- Oh, really? - No doubt.


Why didn't you say so in the first place?


Oh, man. I was almost on my way to Johto.


[EXASPERATED]


So if you're entering the Unova League


then you must have all seven badges, just like me.


- Seven? - Sorry, but you need eight.


See?


Eight? What are you talking about? I get it.


You won an extra badge to play it safe.


Then what do you think's supposed


'to go in the slot on the right?'


CAMERON 'Duh. The Winner's Badge.'


That's the badge you get for winning the Unova League.


- Convenient, right? - Hmm.


I've never heard of such a badge.


Hmm, wait.


You mean I need to win eight badges?


That's right. Finally.


Ah.


This stinks. Eighth badge. Eighth badge.


Alright. Then where's the nearest Gym?


Excuse me, young man. I can help.


The nearest Gym from here is in Humilau City.


Humilau City. Got it. Quick, let's move, Riolu.


- 'Wait, Cameron.' - Hm? Huh?


Do you mind if I come with you and watch your Gym battle?


IRIS/CILAN Hm?


NARRATOR The Junior Cup may be over


but memories of battling Trip, Burgundy


Georgia and Dawn are not.


Now, a new chapter is being written


as our heroes prepare to witness


what promises to be a whirlwind Gym battle


as the journey continues.
