[EXCITED]
Helioptile, settle down.
ALEXA 'So that's Frond Island.'
Hey, Alexa. Morning. What's up?
Good morning, everyone. That's what's up.
Well, it looks like an island to me.
- Look at this. - What's that?
Only a secret-coded treasure map, that's what.
ASH/CILAN/IRIS Treasure map? No way!

"Mystery on a Deserted Island!"
NARRATOR Continuing their shipboard
journey to Pallet Town
in the Kanto region, our Heroes are now traveling together
with Alexa and her Pokémon, Helioptile
from the Kalos region.
I still can't believe it. That's a real treasure map?
It sure is.
See, I went to a pirate museum
to write an article a while back.
There was an exhibit about a pirate ship
that had been detected at the bottom of the ocean
along with many onboard treasures and the pirate
who was its captain.
He traveled with several Pokémon.
IRIS A real pirate?
ALEX Right, he traveled with
a Shiftry, Nidoking, Mismagius
and Honchkrow, and always had a Vulpix
perched on his shoulder.
According to legend, he hid his Pokémon-related treasures
on one of the Decolore Islands.
What kind of treasures did he hide?
ALEXA 'Unfortunately, that I wasn't
able to find out.'
ALEXA As a Pokémon journalist,
I couldn't resist
learning everything I could about Pokémon treasure.
I began my research and eventually discovered
this map the pirate left behind
which contains a mysterious secret code.
The map points to a small, deserted island
near Frond Island, which just happens
to be our very next stop.
Treasure hunting on a deserted island.
That sounds delectable.
It would be awesome if you'd let us go with you.
Searching for treasure sounds fun.
Let's go find some treasure, buddy.
[AGREEMENT]
Our timing's perfect.
Let the Twerps do the treasure-finding grunt work
then we'll swoop in and take it all, and Pikachu, too.
I wonder what treasures they'll find.
JESSIE Treasury treasures, silly.
Gold and silver coins, and sparkling jewelry.
JAMES Ooh, wee.
MEOWTH Gold, silver, rubies
sapphires, emeralds, diamonds and pearls.
You can never have enough diamonds and pearls.
- Hm. - Ah.
JESSIE/JAMES/MEOWTH Some team dream.
Look! There's the island.
[gasping]
ASH 'The island with the treasure?'
ALEXA 'Right.'
a.m. Arrived at Deserted Island.
ASH 'Look at those cliffs.'
ALEXA 'According to the map'
'there's a passageway somewhere that leads inland.'
'Let's find it.'
- Look. Over there. - 'That must be it.'
- Oh! - Everyone hold on!
[screaming]
Hm. Where are we?
Guess we were able to get out of that in one piece.
That was scary.
Wow. I can't believe we made it through that.
a.m.
Endured a giant whirlpool in front of island inlet.
It was as though it was trying to keep us from getting inside.
IRIS 'This is like a maze.'
CILAN 'Alexa, please be careful'
ALEXA 'I will.'
HONCHKROW/HELIOPTILE [COMMANDING]/[PANICKED]
Huh? No need to be scared.
It'll be alright.
Hey, look at the Honchkrow.
Why do they look like they're staring at us?
[UNSURE]
Perhaps it's a Honchkrow evaluation.
ALEXA 'Maybe, but I doubt it.'
[grunting]
Look out, secret treasure, here we come.
We'll get Pikachu as well, because we're not dumb.
The Boss will love where we're coming from.
According to the map, we should be close.
- Huh? Look. - Huh?
- 'A pirate ship?' - 'Amazing!'
- It's time to go ashore. - Okay.
ALEXA ' a.m., landfall.'
'Discovered a beached vessel believed to be the pirate ship.'
[CURIOUS]/[SHOCKED]
It's in bad shape.
I think we should go and check it out. Right, Pikachu?
[AGREEMENT]
Maybe that's not such a good idea, Ash.
There's the scent of danger around this.
It'll be fine.
We'll never find the treasure if we get scared off
by a teensy little thing.
I agree.
[SCARED]
There's nothing to worry about. Let's go.
JESSIE 'Ship ahoy!'
Let's transfer the treasure from the Twerps' hands to ours.
- Aye-aye. - Aye-aye.
- Ah! - Oh, no!
Ugh! What's going on? [PANICKED]
We've got to get outside.
We went up too fast and smacked into the boat!
PIKACHU [PANICKED]
[panting] Huh?
[PANICKED]
ALEXA a.m.
The pirate ship has been struck by something.
And it's now, sliding back into the ocean.
Guess that means the treasure's gone.
[DISAPPOINTED]/[URGING]
'Huh? Ah. What's that?'
I'd say it's the doorway that leads to the treasure.
Let's look at the map.
ALEXA 'To get to the treasure,
we'll have to decipher this code'
'which should open that door.'
CILAN But look!
None of the symbols on the map match the ones on the door.
So how are we supposed to decode it?
Let's see.
Huh?
Check it out. These stones slide around.
- They slide around? - Like a puzzle.
- A puzzle? - A puzzle?
It's a giant puzzle where the object
is to create the same pattern the map shows
by moving the stone blocks around.
IRIS Go, Cilan. Good thinking.
CILAN Let's take the puzzle
piece by piece and solve it.
You got it. PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]
ASH/IRIS/CILAN/ALEXA 'We did it!'
ALEXA Perfect.
The symbols all match.
[gasping]
- It's a staircase. - Unbelievable!
Let's go.
Hey, wait for us, Ash.
p.m. Hidden staircase found.
So the treasure can't be far behind.
[CONCERNED]
Hold on. Where are we?
ALEXA ' p.m.'
'At the top of the staircase is a dense forest..'
[screaming]
ALEXA 'Mismagius.'
MISMAGIUS [SHADOW BALL MOVE]
- What was that for? - Snivy, I choose you!
Dragonite. Let's go!
[READY]
[HIDDEN POWER MOVE]
- Dodge it. - Dodge it, quick.
[EXERTION]
Snivy, use Leaf Blade now!
Dragonite, use Ice Beam!
[LEAF BLADE MOVE]/ [ICE BEAM MOVE]
- Let's go. - Iris! Ash!
[NERVOUS]
Helioptile, what?
NIDOKING/EEVEE [ANGRY]/[PANICKED]
Three Eevee and a Nidoking?
What's going on with them?
[DETERMINED]
[SCARED]
[ANGRY]
[IRON TAIL MOVE]
[PAINED]
[HAPPY]
Alright. That's how you do it.
[HAPPY]
Why was Nidoking chasing them?
It might have been for food. Here. Try this.
[CURIOUS]/[HAPPY]
- They were hungry, alright. - For sure.
[HAPPY]
Axew.
[EXCITED] [HAPPY]/[CONTENT]
[HAPPY]/[GRATEFUL] [HAPPY]
[SALUTATIONS] [PLAYFUL]
What do you know?
Helioptile isn't afraid of them one bit.
[PLAYFUL]
[HAPPY]
ASH/CILAN/IRIS Who's that Pokémon?
ASH/CILAN/IRIS It's Nidoking.
NIDOKING [PROUD]
So our plans have been waterlogged.
The odds of slamming into a pirate ship
have to be a million to one.
So let's pick up the slack, Jack.
[grunting]
- Huh? - Huh?
[SHADOW BALL MOVE]
[MOCKING]
Now, that wasn't nice. [HIDDEN POWER MOVE]
Woobat, Air Slash!
[AIR SLASH MOVE]
'This looks like a mountain, right?'
CILAN 'Right.'
You can see there's a symbol
at the top of the mountain.
I'd say that's where we need to go.
- Wow, we're almost there. - Okay, treasure, look out.
AXEW/HELIOPTILE/PIKACHU [AMAZED]
EEVEE [EXCITED]
Huh? You three want to go too?
[AFFIRMATIVE]
[EXCITED]
Awesome. Axew wants the Eevee to come along, too.
Yeah, sounds good to me.
Axew, take care of the Eevee, okay?
[DETERMINED]
[HAPPY]
[SCARED]
Helioptile, what's wrong?
[screaming]
[SCARED]/[FOCUSED]
[ANGRY]
It's a Shiftry! Look out!
[b*llet SEED MOVE]
Pignite, I choose you!
Use Flamethrower.
[FLAMETHROWER MOVE]
[SCARED]
Axew, Dragon Rage.
[DRAGON RAGE MOVE]
[SCARED]
[PANICKED]
- Three of them? - It obviously has friends.
Funny how the Twerps are always within reach.
Hah. Let's take a shorter route and get there before them.
And we'll be knee-deep in treasure
before they even know what hit them.
[screaming]
[groaning] [ANGRY]
[screaming]
[POISON STING MOVE]
Yamask, Shadow Ball.
[READY]/[SHADOW BALL MOVE]
[PAINED]
Why do they all keep attacking us?
They just won't quit.
[NERVOUS] There's got to be a reason
why all of those Pokémon
are so angry.
Huh. So let's review the Pokémon we've come across.
ALEXA First, we saw Honchkrow.
ASH Then, Mismagius.
CILAN Followed by a Nidoking.
IRIS And just now, a Shiftry.
The same Pokémon who were in the pirate g*ng.
[gasping]
This island must've been their secret hideout.
There's no doubt.
Yes, I think you're right.
Wait. How come we haven't come across Vulpix?
Bet we will if we just keep hanging out.
I'd say the odds are in our favor.
Now, I think we deserve a little break.
ASH/IRIS/CILAN 'Great!'
[panting]
- That Nidoking was no pushover. - You bet.
But Team Rocket's still kicking.
So this is the home of the treasure.
JAMES 'And we're one step ahead
of those t*rd Twerps.'
Time for a hasty treasure hunt.
Although, these statues' purpose is unclear.
Who cares about these rock piles?
Treasure's what I want. I want it now.
- So where is it? - Wait.
Now, cool your rockets.
A treasure hunt means ya gotta hunt for treasure
which we haven't done yet.
NINETALES [ANGRY]
[HIDDEN POWER MOVE]
JAMES Was that a Ninetales?
JESSIE 'Some treasure.'
We're at the top of the mountain.
'But what are those?'
PIKACHU [CONFUSED]
We're all relieved to have finally reached the mountaintop.
We've also found statues.
They're all statues of Pokémon.
[CURIOUS]
And they're all the pirate g*ng Pokémon.
Yeah, but I don't see any statue of Vulpix.
ALEXA 'I'll guess these statues are
holding some sort of secret.'
'Huh! Everyone, behind you.'
[FLAMETHROWER MOVE]
[screaming]
- What was that? - Ninetales?
POKEDEX Ninetales. The Fox Pokémon.
And the evolved form of Vulpix.
With its nine tails and a thick golden coat
Ninetales is said to live a thousand years.
Oh my. That was the Vulpix.
But it evolved into a Ninetales.
[ENERGY BALL MOVE]
[screaming]
Charizard, I choose you!
[READY] Flamethrower, let's go.
[FLAMETHROWER MOVE]
[EXERTION]/[FLAMETHROWER MOVE]
[HIDDEN POWER MOVE]
[PAINED]
Charizard. You okay?
[REASSURE] Alright. Dragon Tail!
[DRAGON TAIL MOVE]
[UNPHASED]/[DOUBLE TEAM MOVE]
[SHOCKED] [FLAMETHROWER MOVE]
Dodge it!
Use Slash on the real Ninetales!
[SLASH MOVE]/[PAINED]
Dragon Tail.
[DRAGON TAIL MOVE]
[PAINED]
ALEXA 'This doesn't make any sense.'
I sure don't see any treasure here, guys.
Is it possible there are other clues
and we just haven't seen them?
The only clue I see is the star.
[EXERTION]
[SHOCKED
[EXCITED]
Did you find something, Axew?
- 'A trench?' - 'Right.'
ALEXA 'And it looks man made.'
Maybe it was used to gather rain.
Gather rain? Okay.
Alright. Oshawott, I choose you.
[READY]
Use Hydro Pump and clear the dirt.
[HYDRO PUMP MOVE]
It's a Ninetales statue.
And it's uncovered something else, too. Oshawott, stop.
OSHAWOTT [AFFIRMATIVE]
You think this leads to the treasure?
Yes. This must be it.
JESSIE 'One treasure hunting minute.'
ASH Not you!
You're wrong again. No surprise there.
To get it right would cause quite a scare.
To protect the world from devastation.
To unite all 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's hunting for treasure at the speed of light.
Surrender now or prepare for a treasure trolling fight.
Meowth, that's right.
- Team Rocket. - Who in the world are they?
They're always up to no good
by trying to steal other people's Pokémon.
So what are you guys doing here?
[ANGRY]
Boo-hoo. Sorry to inform you that we were here first.
Losers come in last, and you're really good at that.
That pirate's treasure belongs to Team Rocket and none other.
Woobat, let's go.
Yamask, you too.
[READY]/[TIRED]
Uh-oh. Woobat, what's wrong with you?
Yamask, you look tired.
Oy, they battled earlier and they're totally out of gas.
Sorry, Yamask. Return, please.
Take a nice rest, Woobat.
Pikachu, Thunderbolt.
[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]
JESSIE/JAMES/MEOWTH We're blasting off
empty handed.
ASH Whoa! A treasure chest!
[AMAZED] Alexa, we found it!
We did. What an exclusive.
- I'll open it. - Right.
Unbelievable.
- Cilan? - Yes. I know those.
CILAN 'A Water Stone, Fire Stone'
'Thunderstone, Leaf Stone'
'Moon Stone, Sun Stone, Shiny Stone'
'Dusk Stone, and Dawn Stone.'
'They're all Evolution Stones.'
- So they're the treasure? - Of course.
CILAN 'Honchkrow and Mismagius
are Pokémon that can evolve using a Dusk Stone.'
ALEXA 'Nidoking evolves
with a Moon Stone'
'and Shiftry evolves with a Leaf Stone.'
So that's why all the Pokémon on this island
are ones that evolve using stones.
Right, and Evolution Stones were more precious
in the past than they are now.
ALEXA 'So that Vulpix always perched
on the pirate's shoulder did evolve into Ninetales.'
'And those five Pokémon are all guarding'
'the pirate's treasure together.'
[READY]
[READY]
[READY] Awesome!
Look at that. It's Jolteon, Flareon, and Vaporeon.
Fantastic.
[URGING]
What's wrong, Helioptile?
[URGING] Hmm?
Hmm.
Mm-hmm.
ALEXA 'I'm erasing all recordings.'
Out of respect for all the Pokémon
living on this island
I think we should keep this place our little secret.
[sighs]
Yeah. She's right. [AGREEMENT]
The perfect end. Like with a great meal.
You okay with that, Axew?
[AGREEMENT]/[HAPPY]
CILAN You were just trying
to protect the Evolution Stones.
ASH We're sorry. We didn't know.
It's time for us to get off the island now.
You don't have to worry. We won't tell anybody.
An island which is guarded by Pokémon
who evolve from the island's treasure.
I hope they can keep on living there peacefully.
[AGREEMENT] You take good care, now.
[SALUTATIONS]
NARRATOR What began as the hunt
for a pirate's treasure
has led to a chest full of Evolution Stones
and the Pokémon who protect it, giving our Heroes
another chance to experience more mysteries
within the Pokémon world.
Now, their journey through the Decolore Islands continues.
