16x18 - The Pokémon Harbor Patrol!

[bunniefuu]

NARRATOR Continuing their journey


to the White Ruins where they hope to learn more


about Reshiram, our heroes have now added


a fellow traveler to their trek, the mysterious N.


Wow, Virbank City. It's been a long time.


[EXCITED] Well, this Film Connoisseur


would be quite happy to actually see


a few movies this time around.


So, you've been to Virbank City before?


Uh-huh, we were in a Pokéstar Studios movie


with our friend Luke directing.


- What's that smell? - What's wrong? What smell?


You really don't smell that?


[CONCERNED]


- Is that it? - Huh?


- What? - Rising smoke.


A fire!


Let's check it out.

ASH "The Pokémon Harbor Patrol!"


[panting]


- This is bad. - It's huge. What a blaze.


[ALARMED] Hmm?


What do we do?


Oshawott. Put out the fire with Hydro Pump!


[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]/[URGENT]


[SHOCKED] Huh?


Who's that?


POKEDEX Watchog. The Lookout Pokémon.


The markings on Watchog's body can glow


to intimidate its foes, it has excellent vision


even in darkness.


[URGENT]


Watchog, why are you stopping us?


[SURPRISED]/[URGENT]


- Huh? - Hmm?


[CONFUSED] Look at that.


CILAN 'Dewott and Frillish.'


Use Hydro Pump.


[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


Check out that power.


Frillish, use Psychic and rescue


anyone trapped inside.


[PSYCHIC MOVE]


[gasping]


But they're.. They're dummies.


CILAN You're right. Hold on.


So does this mean this is a firefighting drill?


Sure looks that way. [AFFIRMATIVE]


Uh, it looks like we kind of goofed up.


[SHEEPISH]


ASH 'Oshawott, return.'


[SHOCKED]


[ALARMED]


[URGENT]/[SURPIRSED]


[URGENT]


No, Watchog, you're not supposed to leave your station.


[ALARMED]/[EXERTION]


[gasps]


[SCARED]


Oh, no.


PIKACHU [WORRIED]


[grunts]


- You okay? - Yeah, thanks. I'm good.


- Shaken, but fine. - That's great.


[RELIEVED]


But it wouldn't be all that great


if Watchog hadn't saved you guys.


Is Watchog able to predict the future?


Hmm, it is a well-known fact


that Watchog can see its surroundings


even in darkness, but it's rumored


'to be able to see through walls'


'and even down into the ground.'


Well, it seems to me that my friend


sensed the danger thanks to those skills.


[SURPRISED] Your friend?


That's what he said. He calls all Pokémon friends.


Not only that, he can hear a Pokémon's inner voice.


Wow. Amazing.


So, who are you?


Forgive us. A pleasure to meet you.


My name's Cilan and I'm a Pokémon Connoisseur.


I'm Ash. And this is my partner Pikachu.


[FRIENDLY] And I'm Iris.


This is Axew. [FRIENDLY]


Right, and this guy back here


is named N.


I'm Halsey, I'm the captain of the Pokémon Harbor Patrol


and this is my team.


[FRIENDLY]


Pokémon Harbor Patrol? That's so cool.



[IMPRESSED] Thank you.


I'm flattered, but being cool


has nothing to do with the job we do.


Our job, cool or not, is monitoring the safety


of people and Pokémon and coming to the aid of those


whose lives are in danger. [EMPHATIC]


Whoa!


Many large ships come into this harbor


every single day.


HALSEY And there's also


the Virbank Complex


located right next to the ocean.


It's a dangerous job protecting so much


but someone has to do it.


[EMPHATIC]


That's why the Pokémon Harbor Patrol's


teamwork is job one.


Wait a second.


You're all wearing red scarves.


Of course.


All of the Pokémon Harbor Patrol members


wear red scarves to show we're a team.


[PROUD]


[UPSET]


[DEFENSIVE]/[UPSET]


Huh? Why is Dewott angry?


It's upset because Watchog left its station.


I have to agree, I know you did it to help us


but you never leave your station


no matter what.


[CONFUSED]


Because your job is to keep the public safely away


from the danger zone at all costs.


'If you don't, and someone gets into the danger zone'


'by mistake, we won't be able to do our job'


'and fully concentrate our efforts on their rescue.'


[DISAPPOINTED]/[URGENT]


Huh?


I think Watchog's trying to tell you something.


Right. Watchog wants to help with the rescues too.


- You really think so? - Of course.


From what Halsey said, Watchog has been a lookout


and only a lookout throughout its Harbor Patrol career.


No wonder it wants to be part of the rescue effort.


[EMPHATIC]


Well.


I understand Watchog's feelings, but what to do?


Wait. How about this?


Maybe there's some sort of aptitude test


Watchog could take to see how good of a rescuer it is.


[PLEASED]


There is. Then, pass or fail


Watchog will know where it stands.


[EAGER]


Great. Then how about now?


[AFFIRMATIVE]


[chuckles]


- No Twerps like our Twerps. - True.


- And one of a kind Pikachu. - Hm.


Why's the hair dude hanging with the Twerps?


'Something about him chaps my charm.'


Wait, it might be fun to catch Pikachu


in front of Mr. Friend to All Pokémon.


What a friendly thing to do.


Our first rescue challenge will be a test of strength.


HALSEY 'Dewott, please demonstrate.'


[CONFIDENT]/[DETERMINED]


- Ah! - Oh my!


[SATISFIED]


- 'Amazing.' - Oh, man.


- That Dewott's strong. - True.


Watchog. You're next.


[INTENT]/[DETERMINED]


You can do it, Watchog!


[EMPHATIC]/[STRUGGLING]


[STRENGTH MOVE]


Wow!


Nice job, Watchog.


- 'Is that a move?' - 'Right. It's using Strength.'


Now, walls and rubble can be obstacles during a rescue


so that's your next test.


Okay, Dewott, you're first.


[CONFIDENT]/[RAZOR SHELL MOVE]


Excellent! [IMPRESSED]


Great move. A double Razor Shell.


Now, Watchog, it's your turn.


[CONFIDENT]


[INTENT]


[CUT MOVE]


[gasping]


- It used Cut. - That was such an awesome job.


[SATISFIED]


And last but not least, the firefighting test.


[CONFIDENT] [HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


- Excellent! - Say.


I'm not sure I've ever seen


such a dense and powerful Hydro Pump.


Next. Go, Watchog.


[EAGER]


[SAND-ATTACK MOVE]



Sand Attack?


Good luck putting out that fire.


[SNIDE]


You can do it, Watchog. [EMPHATIC]


[SAND-ATTACK MOVE]/[FRUSTRATED]


[EXERTION]


Watchog?


[SHOCKED]


[PAINED]


- Uh! - Oh, no.


[CONCERNED]/[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


[SHOCKED]/[DAZED]


Watchog, are you okay?


[AFFIRMATIVE]


Well, there goes passing the test.


[SYMPATHETIC]


[DEJECTED]


Now, listen to me, Watchog.


[SURPRISED]


Pokémon have various skills that can be helpful


during all sorts of rescue efforts.


And one of your skills is being able to sense things.


'Which brings me to the conclusion'


'that being a lookout is still best for you.'


[AGREEABLE]


We need a lookout.


It's much more important than you realize.


Remember that, okay?


[AFFIRMATIVE]


Good. I'm glad you understand.


We're counting on you.


[PROUD]


Being a Harbor Patrol member is cool.


They all seem to have such a strong bond.


It fills me with awe.


Well, I don't approve of the idea of recruiting


Pokémon for dangerous rescue efforts at all.


No? Why?


Pokémon have a magnificent world that's all their own.


I wouldn't mind if Pokémon were rescuing other Pokémon


but I can't agree with rescuing people.


Those Pokémon will never find happiness doing that.


While it's true that Pokémon have saved


people's lives from time to time.


Please remember, people have saved


Pokémon's lives as well.


When it comes to rescue, there isn't any difference


between people and Pokémon.


- I wonder about that. - What are you saying?


[grunting]


[cell phone ringing] Huh?


Harbor Patrol, this is Halsey here.


Huh? What? At the industrial complex?


But the Virbank kindergarten class is there today.


I need you to evacuate everyone immediately.


We're on our way.


- Trouble? - You heard that call, Ash.


I have to get over there right now.


Please let us come with you and help.


No. Thank you, but it's too dangerous.


At least let us help evacuate people.


- We won't get in your way. - She's right. Please?


[URGENT]


Alright. Come along.


ASH/IRIS/CILAN Right.


Mm, I love when opportunity knocks


and we don't even have to open the door.


Such sweet chaos. Covering us to cop Pikachu.


Yeah, so let's do what we got to do.


ASH/CILAN/IRIS Who's that Pokémon?


ASH/CILAN/IRIS It's Watchog.


WATCHOG [FRIENDLY]


Hurry! This way.


Turn right, you'll see people over there


who will safely guide you out.


[URGENT] Hey, over here!


Everyone stay calm!


[ASSERTIVE]


- Any more? - That's everyone.


- Okay. Please hurry. - Right.


Now that you're all here everything will be fine.


CHILDREN Thank you.


[PLEASED]


Is everyone out?


There are a few workers still inside.


- Where did it start? - 'In the rear of the complex.'


- But we have no idea why. - I see.


We need to extinguish the fire right away.


But if there are still workers inside..


- We'll take care of it. - Huh?


- What did you say? - We'll get the rest out.


You guys go deal with the fire.


Alright. And thanks.


Watchog, I need you to keep an eye out


so no one enters the danger zone, understand?


[AFFIRMATIVE]


Let's go.


- Hey, over here! - That's great.


They got out.


There it is.



Dewott, use Razor Shell to slice it open.


Then Frillish, use Hydro Pump to put out the fire.


[AFFIRMATIVE]/[RAZOR SHELL MOVE]


[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


HALSEY We need to make sure it's out.


[panting]


Hey, look. More workers.


Over here! Over here!


Glad you're all okay. There anyone left?


There's still a bunch inside.


- Please, save them. - Save them? Okay.


[CONCERNED]/[SHOCKED]


- That was easy. - Easy as pie.


- Aye. - Hey.


Just what do you guys think you're doing


taking Pikachu like that?


Hmm.


Prepare for trouble, you know the drill.


And make it double, you'll get your fill.


To protect the world from devastation.


To unite the people within our nation.


To denounce the evils of truth and love.


To extend our reach to the stars above.


It's Jessie.


And James.


Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light.


Surrender now or prepare to fight.


Meowth, that's right.


- Team Rocket. - You three never give up.


Give me back Pikachu.


Oshawott, I choose you.


[ANGRY]


Yamask, Will-O-Wisp.


[CONFIDENT]/[WILL-O-WISP MOVE]


Now, use Hydro Pump.


[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


Woobat, use Air Slash.


[EAGER]/[AIR SLASH MOVE]


Axew, Dragon Rage.


[DRAGON RAGE MOVE]


[screams] [ALARMED]


Quick, Oshawott, use Razor Shell.


[DETERMINED]/[RAZOR SHELL MOVE]


[EXCITED]


Nice job, Oshawott.


Not if it's unfinished. Woobat, Hidden Power.


[HIDDEN POWER MOVE]/[ALARMED]


[EXERTION] [HIDDEN POWER MOVE]/[EXERTION]


- Oh! - Oh, no!


PIKACHU [ALARMED]


HALSEY Fire extinguished.


Mission accomplished. [PLEASED]


[alarm buzzing] What's that?


[crackling]


[gasps]


What's going on?


[SHOCKED]/[URGENT]


Dewott, what's wrong? [URGENT]


The fire doors are closing. Come on. Let's get out of here.


[panting]


Oh! Huh! Oh!


[sighs]


Pikachu, Thunderbolt. Go!


[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]


Give up. You can't win.


- Well, you can lose. - And you will, no doubt.


For now, we're cutting out.


[grunts] [ANGRY]


- 'Ash?' - Huh?


The fire's getting worse!


Hurry up! [URGENT]


Right. Oshawott, Hydro Pump!


[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


- Uh-oh! - No good.


I'm gonna go find Halsey.


- Huh? - Huh?


Halsey. Are you there?


ASH 'Can you hear me, Halsey?'


- Ash, is that you? - Yeah.


And the power transmission station's on fire.


That can't be.


So, Oshawott's trying hard to put it out


but it's not strong enough.


We're locked in here, the fire doors


closed automatically and now we're trapped.


You're trapped?


If that fire spreads throughout the complex


then we're sunk.


Ash, you need to take your friends


and leave the area now.


ASH 'Wait, but what about you guys?'


We'll figure something out.


- 'Evacuate now.' - I can't leave. No way.


Look, Ash. Do what I say.


Sorry. I'll stay and put the fire out.


I've got to get back to Oshawott, right now.


Go ahead. We'll figure out how to get Halsey out of there.


- Don't worry. - 'Thanks guys.'


I've got it, we could dig a tunnel in


and get them out that way.



That's a great idea.


Excadrill, let's go!


[CONFIDENT]


Use Dig to make a tunnel and get everyone out.


[DIG MOVE


Go for it! [EMPHATIC]


Keep it up, Oshawott.


[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


It's not putting the fire out.


'What do we do?' PIKACHU [WORRIED]


[STRUGGLING]


[DISCOURAGED]


Oh, no. What happened?


[DISCOURAGED] The rock is too hard.


- It can't get through. - It can't be.


Hmm.


What's happening in there?


Yeah. What's wrong? [ADAMANT]


N Watchog.


Please, help us. Come along with me.


[CONFUSED]


Huh, so Watchog will be able to avoid the hard bedrock?


Right, Watchog will be able to detect


how hard the ground is and I'll tell you


when it finds out, so you can guide Excadrill.


- That makes sense. - Got it.


[DETERMINED]


I'm counting on you, my friend.


[CONFIDENT]


[EXERTION]


[URGENT] Good.


- Make a right turn. - Okay.


Alright, Excadrill, make a right.


[DETERMINED]/[CONCENTRATED]


- Go down. - Now, go down.


[AFFIRMATIVE]/[CONCENTRATED]


- Go left. - Excadrill, go left.


[URGENT]


Now straight and you'll hit the passageway wall.


You're close, go straight


and you'll soon be at the passageway wall.


[DETERMINED] [grunting]


[SURPRISED]


[screams]


[RELIEVED] It's Excadrill.


Just stay with it, Oshawott.


[CONCERNED]/[EXHAUSTED]


Huh? Oshawott, no.


HALSEY 'Dewott. Frillish.


Use Hydro Pump.'


Huh? [HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


- It's Halsey. - Thank you, Ash and Oshawott.


We'll take it from here.


Now, Watchog, use Sand Attack.


[SAND-ATTACK MOVE]


[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]


Awesome. [RELIEVED]


It's out. What a relief.


[RELIEVED] Finally. I can breathe again.


Thanks to all of you for doing such an excellent job.


[PLEASED]


- Hmm. - Cilan told me.


That it was you who thought of using


Watchog's sensing skills to help us out.


[GRATEFUL]


You know, I always figured


Watchog was best suited for the job of lookout


but I might have to rethink that one again.


[DELIGHTED]


Your quick thinking avoided a disaster. Thank you.


You're not the only one


who's going to need to rethink things.


HALSEY/ASH/IRIS/CILAN Huh?


'The idea of putting friends in harm's way..'


I mean, Pokémon risking their well being


in order to save people bothered me


but then I saw what was in Watchog's heart.


- And I realized.. - What?


N 'Watchog doesn't help people'


because it has to, but because it wants to.


People or Pokémon, it doesn't matter.


Watchog wants to be of service to everyone


and that truly comes from the bottom of its heart.


[PLEASED]


And I'm sure Frillish and Dewott feel the same way as well.


[AFFIRMATIVE]


Which means, if I truly care about their happiness


then I have no choice but to respect their wishes.


- Thank you. - Wow, N.


[chuckles]


You all were such a big help today.


I promise I'll do everything to bring out the best


each member of my team has to offer.


After all, it can only help our rescue efforts.


- All the best, Halsey. - Thanks, N.


We're going to be heading on our way now. Take care.


And I hope we see you guys again.


[WARM]


- Thanks, and best wishes. - Take care.


Bye-bye. [WARM]



NARRATOR Thanks to our heroes


the Pokémon Harbor Patrol


has broadened its outlook, and so has N.


Now, the focus is once again on the White Ruins and Reshiram


as the journey continues.
