08x21 - Who, What, When, Where, Wynaut?

[bunniefuu]

[grunts]

[screams]

[FERVENT]

BROCK Ash, I've never seen you so pumped.

That's right, there's only three months

till the Hoenn League Championships

and I gotta be ready.

[AGREEMENT]

Don't forget your Pokémon Contest in Pacifidlog Town.

Yeah, and if I get a win there

I'll have all five of my contest ribbons.

Just think, I could end up entering the Grand Festival.

Pikachu, you ready to go?

[AFFIRMATIVE]

Hold on. Is that Drew?

- Drew? - Yeah, what's he doin'?

Hey, look out.

Go, Masquerain, Silver Wind.

[AFFIRMATIVE]/[SILVER WIND MOVE]

Whoa, check out that power.

[ASTONISHED]

That was really amazing.

Yeah, I'm almost jealous.

Drew, hey.

Oh, it's you guys.

We saw the whole thing.

That technique was awesome.

PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]

That's just one of the many awesome attacks

I'll be using over at the Grand Festival.

That's where you and I will face off.

Hmph, so that means you've earned

all five of your Contest Ribbons, May?

[giggles]

Almost.

Just one more and I'll be able to enter the Grand Festival.

- See? - Isn't that nice? Look..

[gasps]

He's got all five.

The Grand Festival is in six weeks. Hmph.

There's only one more contest before that, May.

- Only one more? - You know what that means.

DREW 'Yes, it means you win the Pacifidlog Contest'

'or it's over, end of story, finito.'

Right, ha-ha, I knew that.

Still as happy-go-lucky and totally clueless as ever.

Yeah, well, how about a practice battle right here and now

mister Know-it-all?

Well, I suppose Masquerain and I could use a little warmup.

It'll be more than a warm up.

ASH "Who, What, When, Where, Wynaut?"

NARRATOR As Ash prepares to enter the Hoenn League Championships

in Ever Grande City, we find May hard at work

honing her Contest skills in a practice round

with a familiar rival.

One more victory will mean a fifth Ribbon

and entry in the Grand Festival.

- Now, begin. - After you, May.

Beautifly, Silver Wind, now.

[AFFIRMATIVE]/[SILVER WIND MOVE]

Masquerain, spin through that Silver Wind.

[EXERTION]

[EXCITED]

That was a really great dodge.

You're doing just fine, May.

Go, Masquerain, use Silver Wind.

[AFFIRMATIVE]/[SILVER WIND MOVE]

Now, dodge it with a Somersault, Beautifly.

[EXERTION]/[SOMERSAULT MOVE]

Yeah, Masquerain's not the only one with great moves.

JESSIE Prepare for trouble, your moves are lame.

Make it double, ours put yours to shame.

We'll cut it short this time.

[gasps]

Ugh, it's Team Rocket.

Places.

Time for our Mechanical Magicarp Vacuum..

To clean up. Ha.

[grunting]

Huh?

[TERRIFIED]

- Beautifly. - Masquerain.

[screaming]

Augh, ah-ha. We don't want the Twerps.

[screaming]

Hey, this flight is full.

Yeah, you gate crashers.

[APPEARING]

Ah, I think I pushed something.

Oh, no, you pushed the hyper turbo engine switch.

- Masquerain, return. - Beautifly, return.

PIKACHU/WOBBUFFET [SCARED]

Where are we going?

[screaming]

WOBBUFFET [AFFIRMATIVE]

[groaning]

Hey, does anyone know where we are?

Well, looks like we're in the middle of the woods somewhere.

[screams]

Where's Wobbuffet, huh?

Let's try listenin' for it.

- Waaa.. - Huh?

- Hmm? - My darling little sweetie pie.

Vanished without a trace.

If that boisterous big mouth weren't always

letting itself out, this never would've happened.

I'm sure we'll hear it before we see it.

Wobbu-ffet.

ASH 'Everybody okay?'

BROCK Yeah, I think so.

MAX But I don't see May or Drew anywhere.

That blast must have carried 'em off somewhere else.

I'm sure they're on the same island, though.

Well, let's go look, guys, come on.

BROCK/MAX Yeah.

DREW Ugh. How'd I end up stuck here with you?

MAY I'm not exactly thrilled either.

DREW I wonder where the rest of 'em landed?

MAY We should go try and find out.

- Huh? - Look at that.

RODERICK Ahoy. I'm coming for ya.

Quite a story, unusual way to end up on Mirage Island.

- Mirage Island? - Yes.

A difficult island, surrounded by

countless whirlpools and wrapped by a thick mist.

Only a fool would dare attempt an approach

and few manage to ever set foot on land.

Hey, I've heard of this place.

Oh, you have? Really?

Huh, this place is world famous.

It's supposed to be crawling with Liechi Berries, too.

I've never heard of those.

They're only the best berries for Pokéblock.

Of course, I wouldn't expect you to know that.

Oh, yeah? I happen to know all about Letchy Berries.

Well, then I'm sure you know it's pronounced "Lee-chee."

[laughs]

Seeing you two together

makes me think of a Pokémon

I'd like you to meet.

Yeah? What kind of Pokémon?

First things first, young lady.

I think I'd better go with you and help find your friends.

Yes, that'd be awesome.

Oh. I forgot. My name's May.

- Oh, yeah, and I'm Drew. - My name's Roderick.

Before we start, I must warn you, the thick forest

on this island can make it easy to lose direction

so follow me closely.

BROCK 'That's just great.'

This compass is completely worthless.

SWELLOW [CALLING]

ASH Swellow, did you find May and Drew?

[DENYING]

It's hard to see anything in a forest this thick.

I sure hope that May's doin' alright.

Don't worry, we're gonna find her and she'll be just fine.

I'm sure, Drew's fine too.

[REASSURING]

In this situation, I think the best thing to do

is to find a river and then head down its shore.

Yeah 'cause they might decide to do the same thing.

Okay, Corphish, I choose you.

And you too, Mudkip.

[READY]/[HAPPY]

We need you two guys

to help us find a river, okay?

CORPHISH/MUDKIP [AGREEMENT]

[SEARCHING]

[CALLING]

[SNIFFING]

[POINTING]

[POINTING]

MAY May's Expedition

into the mysterious woods begins.

You don't get out much, do you?

Of course I do, you just don't know how to have fun.

Do you know if any of your friends would have any idea

what to do in the event they got lost in the forest?

Hmm..

Brock would know.

He's really good at stuff like that.

In that case, we follow the river

heading back to the beach.

That's always the best thing you can do

when you've lost your way.

MEOWTH/JAMES Wobbuffet.

Wobbuffet?

[shudders] Wobbuffet.

Where can you be?

This is getting old fast.

Answer me, or you'll regret it.

WYNAUT [AFFIRMATIVE]

Huh? Hey.

Could that have been Wobbuffet

responding to your threat?

WYNAUT [HAPPY]

- Over there. - Goodie, oh.

I should tell 'em it's a Wynaut. But why?

MAY We made it, here we are at the river

and we didn't get lost once.

So how'd you get to know so much about this island

in the first place, Roderick?

Hmm, well, I guess it started about forty years ago.

I was a young, ambitious Pokémon coordinator

searching for Liechi Berries to make the perfect Pokéblock.

As I headed toward Mirage Island

a whirlpool engulfed my boat completely

throwing me overboard.

And when I awoke, I found myself

lying on the shores of the very island I was seekin'.

As I lay there with hardly the strength to move

I felt the presence of something approaching me

When I finally could lift my head and open my eyes

I found myself in their cave

with Liechi Berries as far as the eye could see.

That's a pretty cool story.

Yeah, but whose cave were you talking about?

- Huh? Look. - At what?

- What is it, Drew? - Check it out.

- Liechi Berries. - Are you sure?

Look out. That cliff..

MAY/DREW [scream]

Bellsprout, Vine Whip.

[VINE WHIP MOVE]

[grunts] Drew.

[screaming]

[breathing heavily]

RODRICK You've got to swim to shore.

There's a waterfall dead ahead.

[screams]

[breathing heavily]

Oh, no.

Don't worry, Drew, I've got you.

[screams]

Drew, you've got to wake up.

I don't think I have the strength

to pull us out of this current.

WYNAUT [EXERTION]

[EXERTION]

What are those things?

[EXERTION]

[EXERTION]

Are they...Pokémon?

[EXERTION]

What are they doing?

[REACHING]

- Hey, May. - Where are you?

Drew.

[CALLING]

I guess they didn't know about the river.

- Hmm.. - 'Ahoy.'

MAX/ASH Huh?

Way up here.

What? They're headed for a waterfall?

No way.

[WORRIED]

I promise I did everything that I could to help them.

At least we have something to go on.

So they must have been carried further downstream.

RODRICK Hmm.

MAY 'Drew, are you okay?'

'Say something, please.'

[moaning] Huh?

Oh, thank goodness, you're waking up.

Did you save me?

Um-mm, it was all of these Pokémon.

- They did it, look. - Huh?

[EXCITED]

Wow. A bunch of Wynaut, cool.

Let's see what Dextette has to say about 'em.

POKEDEX Wynaut, the Bright Pokémon.

Wynaut are the pre-evolved form of Wobbuffet.

'They travel in herds and at night retire to caves'

'where they sleep together in groups.'

[AFFECTIONATE]

Liechi Berries.

[AFFECTIONATE]

Are those berries for us?

[AGREEMENT]

MAY/DREW Thanks.

MAY/DREW Yummy.

Wow. They've got a really powerful aftertaste.

But, they sure make you feel strong.

[EXCITED]

[chuckling]

The combination of those berries and Wynaut makes me happy.

I know what you mean.

JESSIE We've been looking all day and zip.

Search and rescue is hard on an empty stomach.

And Wobbuffet's probably out there getting Wobbu-fed.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

I'm missing it so much that its voice keeps playing in my head.

[MUNCHING]

[scream] Now, it's in mine.

[GOBBLING]

Yeah, I hear it too.

TEAM ROCKET Huh? Hah! What? Wobbuffet?

- Now, I think I see it. - Me too.

Unless that's the real thing.

Yes it's the real thing, and it's eating real food.

TEAM ROCKET Show us where you got those berries, or else.

WOBBUFFET [AFFIRMATIVE]

TEAM ROCKET Thank you.

[DISTRESSED]

ASH So after your boat crashed

the Wynaut helped you, and gave you berries and stuff?

- That's pretty cool. - 'Agreed.'

'Over the many years of living on Mirage Island'

'I've learned how to navigate safely through'

'the many whirlpools surrounding its shores.'

And even though I now live back in the city

I come back here every so often

to keep a watchful eye out for the Wynaut, you see.

It just seems like the right thing to do.

It sounds like you really care about these Wynaut, Roderick.

Well, you won't get any argument from me.

Hey, look, guys.

These footprints have got to belong to May and Drew.

And the other ones are from Wynaut. Hmm..

'Looks like they're headed back to their cave.'

[EXCITED]

Those Wynaut sure know how to have a good time.

Yeah.

[AFFECTIONATE]

I bet you're asking us to join you, right?

[AFFIRMATIVE]

Awesome. Come on out, everybody.

[EXCITED]

We've all been invited to a little party with the Wynaut.

[EXCITED]

[BECKONING]

Hmm? Uh, no thanks.

I think I'll take a pass this time.

[HAPPY]

[laughing]

TEAM ROCKET Aha! Berry Paradise.

[AGREEMENT]

Bon appetite.

Sweet and...sour.

I'm on...fire.

Delish...ugh.

Sweet with a kick in the pants aftertaste?

It's a Liechi Berry.

- It's a Lee-what? - Liechi.

They're rare berries that are used for making Pokéblock

and people will pay through the nose for 'em.

Well, I could care less where their money comes from.

Through their nose into my pocket.

We sure know how to pick 'em.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

[HAPPY]

- Huh? - Huh?

DREW The Liechi Berries.

MAY Stop it. You're stealing their berries.

JESSIE You Twerps can sure tell it like it is.

Those Liechi berries belong to the Wynaut.

- Whoa. - Oh, no.

I don't think folks will pay through the nose for a Twerp.

Not a problem, we'll just sift her out at the end

and throw her away with the pits.

- Yes. - May.

You've got to do something to stop Team Rocket.

Okay.

Augh! Great. Now what do I do?

[ANNOYED]/[EXERTION]

[ORDERING]

Okay. Whoa.

JESSIE Ha-ha, selling these berries is a really great

business opportunity for us.

It's called selling high and buying low.

And you can't get much lower than free.

Stop, or else you're really gonna be sorry.

[laughing] Yeah.

Sorry, we didn't think of this sooner.

[grunts]

And I can't even get a hold of my Poké ba*ls.

"May's Expedition" is really in a bind.

- 'Hey, May.' - Huh?

We've come to help you out.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

- Thank you. Just in time. - She's right.

- Huh? - You are just in time.

Augh!

RODERICK This is Wynaut's cave, without a doubt.

MAX But nobody's here.

RODERICK Eh. Now, this is strange.

All their Liechi Berries are gone.

It's Team Rocket, I just know it.

Yeah, it looks like something they'd try to pull.

If so, then I'm sure they're somewhere else on this island

trying to steal just as many as they can get a hold of.

Yeah? Well, not for long.

Seviper, Poison Tail.

[APPEARING]

Roselia, Magical Leaf.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

[POISON TAIL MOVE]

[MAGICAL LEAF MOVE]

[HISSING]

[COUNTER MOVE]

[PAINED]

That Wynaut's in there using Counter.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

Roselia, use Petal Dance.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

Get Wobbuffet in there, Meowth

and show them who's better.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

[PETAL DANCE MOVE]

MEOWTH Huh?

[laughs]

Aw. Its aim is lame.

Hmph, you'll see.

Huh? Oh.

Hey, thanks, Drew. You too.

[PROUD]

No fair.

Go, Seviper, Poison Tail.

[AFFIRMATIVE]/[POISON TAIL MOVE]

PIKACHU [THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

[PAINED]

- Huh! - A Thunderbolt?

- We're coming, May. - Don't worry.

[chuckles]

Hey, guys.

- Is everybody here okay? - Yes.

Those aren't your berries. Give 'em back.

Right. Dustox, use Poison Sting.

Hmph, Cacnea, let's go.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

Not me, Cacnea. Get them. That hurts.

[POISON STING MOVE]

Masquerain, Silver Wind, let's go.

[SILVER WIND MOVE]

Quick. Pin m*ssile.

[PIN m*ssile MOVE]

And now, for a little power boost.

Yeah.

[screams]

[SAFE GUARD MOVE]

MAX The Wynaut are all using Safe Guard.

Okay, Pikachu, now give 'em Thunder.

[THUNDER MOVE]

[screaming]

- Beautifly. - Masquerain.

MAY/DREW Use Silver Wind.

[SILVER WIND MOVE]

[PAINED]

[screaming]

- Huh? - Huh? Beautiful.

JAMES 'Look at that sunrise.'

Then let's make a wish on that star for good luck.

TEAM ROCKET Rising sun so shiny bright

are there movies on this flight?

WOBBUFFET [AFFIRMATIVE]

Alright, they're gone.

[HAPPY]

Hmm, the most amazing double Silver Wind I've ever seen.

[HAPPY]

MAY The angry boy in this picture's really you, Roderick?

MAX 'You look totally different.'

Back then, they used to call me Roderick, the Wrongdoer

but thanks to these Wynaut

I'm now known as Roderick, the kindly gentleman.

Yeah, Wynaut made me kinder, too.

We'll see about that next time I beat you.

What did you say?

Well, I guess some things never change.

But still, Wynaut are a pretty cool Pokémon, huh?

Mm-hm.

Almost forgot. For you, May.

A little present from me.

Wow. Liechi Berries.

You should be able to make wonderful Pokéblock from these.

Oh, thank you so much.

This should help me at the Grand Festival, right, Drew?

You seem to be forgetting that you have to win

the Pacifidlog Contest first.

I know, and I also know that I'm gonna do it too.

Now, look, who's totally fired up.

She'll win it, for sure.

[AGREEMENT]

NARRATOR Our heroes leave Mirage Island

knowing they've helped preserve the Wynaut's peaceful home.

Meanwhile, May's desire to win her final ribbon

at the Pacifidlog Town Pokémon Contest

burns stronger than ever.
