-[Ash] "Grabbing…" -[Goh] "…The Brass Ring!"

[birds chirping]

Sci…. Sci, sci. Scizon!

[narrator] The Pokémon living in Cerise Park

are happy, healthy, and full of energy!

[Ash] Hey, g*ng, chow time!

[Grookey and Pikachu chittering]

All right, here you go! Dig in!

[Goh] Enjoy, Grookey.

[both munching]

Oh! Wow, Raichu, you're helping out, too!

-Raichu. -Grookey.

[chitters]

-Pansear. -Panpor.

Raichu.

That's right, Grookey. You've gotta wait your turn.

Lined up like that, they look a lot like Falinks.

Falinks?

[Chrysa] Falinks is made up of six individuals

who always move together in a line.

Isn't that kind of like what an Exeggcute does?

Precisely!

All six individuals have excellent teamwork,

so they act just like one Pokémon!

Awesome! I wanna see that!

Then, you'll have to travel to the Galar region.

The Galar region!

-Only one thing to do… -Let's go!

-Grookey, key! -Pika, pika!

Eiscue.

Wingull. [Wingull chirping]

Wingull.

Eis…

cue.

[Eiscue whimpers]

Whooo.

Cue…

[Goh] Hmm.

It should be in this area…

-[Ash] Where? Here? -[Goh grumbling]

-Grookey? -Oh.

[Goh] A Poké Ball?

What's it doing here?

[Goh screams]

[Ash] What's up, Goh?

[grunting]

That's not a Poké Ball! It's a Pokémon…

[Ash] I think maybe it's a Stunfisk.

-Stunfisk. -[chimes]

[Rotom Phone] Stunfisk, Galarian form.

The Trap Pokémon.

A Ground and Steel type.

Stunfisk lies in the mud while luring opponents in

with its brightly colored lips.

Then it attacks with its two serrated steel fins.

Now Poké Ball, go!

[grunts]

[warbles]

[chimes]

[Rotom Phone] Stunfisk, Galarian form, has been registered to your Pokédex.

I caught a Stunfisk!

[Grookey cheering]

[Goh] I know there are Falinks around here, so let's check it out!

[Ash] Right!

[light music]

Eiscue?

Huh? Cue? Eiscue.

Eiscue.

[grunting]

[thuds]

[Eiscue groans]

[Eiscue grunting]

[Eiscue gasps]

Cue, cue.

[Eiscue sobbing]

[Eiscue panting]

Eis…

Eis… Eis… Eiscue.

All right, one Lemonade coming up.

You'll have it in a jiff!

Huh?

Eiscue.

-[screams] -[Eiscue screams]

[grunts]

-Hmm. -Pi…

There! [chuckles]

[Pikachu] Pika!

-Brass B. -[Falinks grunts]

[grunts]

[Rotom Phone] Falinks.

The Formation Pokémon. A Fighting type.

Falinks has a leader called the brass and five followers called troopers.

The brass gives all the orders.

[Goh] So the one in front is the brass!

[grunting]

[chanting] Falinks, Falinks, Falinks.

They really do move like they're one!

Huh? Oh.

What's battling over there!

Boldore.

[tense music]

-[grunting order] -[Falinks grunts]

[Boldore grunts]

[Boldore grunts]

Boldore.

-Falinks. -[all grunt]

[Pikachu and Grookey exclaim]

Man, Falinks sure is strong!

That's some amazing teamwork!

[upbeat music]

Eis…

[grunts]

[whimpers]

[grunting]

[screams] Eiscue.

[quirky music]

[camera shutter clicks]

-Huh? -What is it, Goh?

There's something odd about that Falinks.

There is?

[all grunt]

[grunting continues]

Pika.

I see it. They're not really in sync.

I'm wondering…

Perhaps they haven't been a team for all that long.

[Grookey cheering]

-[Grookey chirping] -[Falinks grunting]

No, stop, Grookey!

[Grookey continues chirping]

[Grookey shouting order]

[yelling]

I keep telling you not to do that!

Grookey, key.

[grunting]

[all shout]

Pikachu, Thunderbolt, go!

Pikachu!

[grunting]

[Pikachu] Pi…

Look! [Goh pants]

[suspenseful music]

I'll be back! You stay here!

I got it! Huh?

There's one!

Sorry about that!

-Pika. -Where are the others?

Okay! Just hold on!

[Goh pants]

Stop right there!

Grookey, key.

[Goh grunts]

-[Goh screams] -Grookey!

[exhales deeply]

That was too close…

Hm. [gasps]

[Goh] What is that?

Grookey, key.

[Falinks groans]

Huh?

[grunts] Falinks!

[groaning]

Ah. I'm sorry. Ash and Pikachu got carried away.

You're still not used to battling, are you?

[Grookey] Grookey.

Your troopers must be worried about you. Let's go!

Hm? Is something wrong?

[groaning]

Feeling down?

I guess things aren't going so well, huh?

[grunts]

Grookey.

This is all new!

You've only just joined them, right?

Practice will fix things right up.

Groo…

Okay, one, and two, three, four, five…

[Ash] Good! They're all here.

-[Falinks clamoring] -[Pikachu] Pika.

[Ash] Stay calm! Goh with be back with the brass in no time!

[Pikachu shouts] Pikachu.

[grunts]

[grunting]

-Pika! -Huh?

Pikachu.

[chanting] Falinks, Falinks, Falinks.

-Pika. -What's going on here?

-Stop! -[Pikachu yelling]

Pikachu, hold on a second!

Let's try this. Make some room!

Now…

Okay, now… make some more room!

Huh? Come on!

All right!

[all grunting]

[screams]

[Ash] What am I supposed to do here?

Pikachu.

Eis…

Eiscue.

-[water crashing] -Eisc…

[whimpers] Eiscue.

[groans]

[Eiscue screaming]

[Ash] Who's that Pokémon?

Pika?

Eiscue.

Pika, pika.

Hmm.

Come on.

Let's go back.

You're only Falinks when all six of you are together, right?

Falinks.

Hmm.

All you have to do is shout out the right orders,

and everything will be just fine, right?

I know!

[Goh] Cinderace, Raichu, Pansear, Panpour, help us out!

-Cinder. -Raichu.

-Pansear. -Panpour.

Grookey? Would you please help out as well?

Grookey, key.

Cinder?

Falinks.

[Goh] Show it what it needs to do, Cinderace.

[Cinderace shouting]

[all chittering]

Cinde… race.

[all groan]

[all grunting]

[all groaning]

[Goh groans]

-Falinks. -[Goh laughs]

That's not how it's supposed to turn out.

All of them are really good friends, and they have great teamwork, but…

Cinder…

-Rai, rai. -Cind…

Rai… Raichu.

Cinderace. [munching]

[gasps]

-Rai, rai. -Falinks.

[both chattering]

[Falinks munching]

Hmm. I think it'll be quicker if we just start practicing.

[whines]

[both chattering]

[Goh] Ready? We'll practice giving orders.

[Pokémon cheering]

Falinks!

Don't worry. You'll be great!

[shouting orders]

[all grunting]

Falinks…

[all groaning]

This is what practicing is all about!

Be confident and shout out your orders, then trust they'll follow you all the way!

-[groaning] -Give it all you've got!

-Cinderace. -Raichu.

[Grookey chirping]

[Pokémon chittering]

Falinks!

Falinks! Falinks!

[all grunting]

Falinks! [grunting]

Grookey.

Yeah! You're doing it! Keep it up!

Pika. Pika!

It really looks like they think of you as their leader, doesn't it?

Look at them following your orders that way!

Pika, pika!

-Sorry about that… -[Falinks chanting]

Where's Goh? It's been a long time.

[Falinks chanting] Pika. Pika.

Falinks.

Hmm. That's the way it's done!

Give your orders with confidence,

and then trust that your friends will follow!

Falinks. Falinks.

All right, now do it with your real Troopers!

[grunts]

[wind blowing]

Eiscue.

Eiscue.

[grunting] Eiscue.

Eis…

[Ash] Hmm.

-[Goh] Hey, Ash? -Hmm?

Hey, Goh! Did you guys find the brass yet?

Huh?

Hold on. What are you all doing?

Raichu.

They're helping out with the training! All of them!

Hmm?

-Pika. -[Goh] Uh…

-Pikachu? -Pika, pika.

They just don't want to stay away from Pikachu for a second!

Since they lost their leader, I guess they latched onto Pikachu

since it was close by.

-Pika, pika. -[Falinks grunts]

There. Your turn!

[marching music]

Pika.

[shouting orders]

[all in unison] Falinks.

-Falinks. -[Troopers grunt]

Amazing!

They're following orders!

Of course.

Pikachu.

-Pika! -Grookey. Gro!

[Pokémon chittering]

You don't have to go through all that again.

[all groan]

-Cinderace. -Pika, pika.

-Falinks. -[Troopers grunt]

-[shouting orders] -[Troopers grunt]

[all grunting]

Now, they're a whole lot better than they were before!

I know, aren't they? With a bit of practice…

[both] Hmm?

[screaming]

-Hey, what's that? -Pika, pika.

[all gasp]

[grunting]

[thuds]

-Falinks! -Eis… Eiscue.

[Eiscue whimpers]

Who's that Pokémon?

[Rotom Phone] Eiscue. The Penguin Pokémon.

An Ice type. Eiscue drifts in from very cold places.

It's always cooling its head down with ice.

You think it could've gotten lost?

Falinks! Falinks! Falinks!

-[grunts] -Eiscue.

Looks to me like a battle's coming up fast!

Then this is perfect!

It's time for the real thing!

-[grunting] -Go for it!

[Pokémon cheering]

-[Falinks grunting] -[screams]

-All right! -[grunting]

-Eiscue… -[gasps]

[grunting]

Oh, no!

[all clamoring]

-[shouting orders] -[Troopers grunt]

-Way to go! -Cinde!

[grunting]

[shouting orders]

[all grunting]

[all grunt]

[grunting]

-[shouting orders] -[grunts]

[all yelping]

[both exclaim]

That's awesome. They are completely in sync.

[Eiscue screams]

[shouting orders]

-[grunts] -Falinks, Falinks.

[all screaming]

They're using Protect for defense!

Good strategy!

[grunting]

[grunts] Falinks.

[all grunting]

[all] Falinks!

[ice shatters]

[Pokémon gasp]

-Its ice broke! -[Goh gasps]

Cinder…

[thuds]

[Goh] So that's what it looks like inside…

[sobbing]

Oh…

And now it's gone.

You did it! You moved together as a single Pokémon!

And that's just how a Falinks should be!

Job well done!

[all cheer]

Hmm. Now, I want you all to keep it up, okay?

-Falinks. -[all] Brass.

[Goh] Good. I've got all the Falinks data I need!

[Ash] Okay, let's go home!

[Eiscue sobbing]

[suspenseful music]

[groans]

Eiscue.

[Brass] Falinks.

[all grunting]

Oh, man. Wonder what it's doing.

Falinks.

Falinks, Falinks.

Hm?

I think it's saying it wants to go with you.

[Goh] You think?

-Falinks, Falinks. -[all grunting]

Hmm.

Poké Ball, go!

[warbles]

[chimes]

[Rotom Phone] Falinks has been registered to your Pokédex!

Yeah. I just caught a Falinks!

[Pokémon cheering]

-Thanks for all of your help! -Cinder.

The Galar region really is awesome, huh?

The idea that there are Pokémon I've never seen gets me so stoked!

Let's come back and learn more!

[both laugh]

[narrator] Goh caught a brand-new Pokémon in the Galar region.

[Pikachu yelps]

So what happened to that Eiscue?

[water sloshing]

[sighs]

[calm music]

[grunting]

Eiscue.

[shouting] Eis… Eiscue.
