SHELGON: [PAINED GRUNT]

SAWYER: Shelgon!

SHELGON: [DAZED]

CLEMONT: Shelgon is unable to battle! Hawlucha wins!

ASH: Okay, that's one.

HAWLUCHA: [TRIUMPHANT]

SAWYER: Okay Shelgon. Return!

SAWYER: There's no doubt you're strong, Ash.

But I'm gonna win the next one!

BONNIE: Yeah, go for it, Sawyer!

NARRATOR: On their way to Snowbelle City, our heroes have

suddenly crossed paths with their old friend Sawyer, which

resulted in an exciting best of three Pokémon battle!

SAWYER: All right, Honedge, let's go!

HONEDGE: [GREETING]

SERENA: A new Pokémon!

BONNIE: Yay!!

ASH: So you caught a new Pokémon, huh?

POKEDEX: Honedge. The Sword Pokémon.

It is said that Honedge is actually a spirit

living inside a sword.

ASH: 'Kay,b

PIKACHU: [DETERMINED]

SAWYER: Right, here we go! Fury Cutter!

HONEDGE: [CHARGING]

CLEMONT: Pikachu is the winner!

BONNIE: Wow. That was so amazing!

PIKACHU: [EXERTION]

ASH: Awesome job!

PIKACHU: [TRIUMPHANT]

SAWYER: Honedge. You take a good rest.

SAWYER: It's frustrating, but good experience.

SAWYER: The third time's the charm! It's up to you, Sceptile!

SCEPTILE: [APPEARING]

ASH: So it evolved, huh? Check out my third Pokémon!

ASH: Greninja! I choose you!

GRENINJA: [APPEARING]

GRENINJA: [DETERMINED]

I stand tall 'Cause I know I'm a winner

Knock me down I'll just get up again

You've met your match Yeah, I'm no beginner

Pokémon

Pokémon Gotta catch 'em all!

I stand tall 'cause I know I'm a winner

Pokémon

Pokémon

Gotta catch 'em all!

SAWYER: A Greninja...

SAWYER: So Frogadier evolved, too.

POKEDEX: Sceptile. The Forest Pokémon, and the evolved form

of Grovyle. The seeds growing on Sceptile's back are brimming

with vitamins that can revitalize trees.

SAWYER: Here goes! b*llet Seed!

SCEPTILE: [b*llet SEED MOVE]

ASH: Check this out! Use Water Shuriken!

ASH: Use Cut!

GRENINJA: [CUT MOVE]

SAWYER: Dodge it, quick!

GRENINJA: [CUT MOVE]

SCEPTILE: [DODGING]

SCEPTILE: [EXERTION]

SAWYER: I know we've got the matchup advantage, but I've

still gotta stay on my guard!

ASH: Keep it going. With Aerial Ace!

GRENINJA: [AFFIRMATIVE]

SAWYER: Sceptile, Leaf Blade!

GRENINJA,SCEPTILE: [AERIAL ACE MOVE]

GRENINJA: [AFFIRMATIVE]

SAWYER: Keep pushing. Leaf Storm!

SCEPTILE: [LEAF STORM MOVE]

GRENINJA: [BRACING]

ASH: Greninja!

SAWYER: I'm pretty sure I've figured out Greninja's battling

style. It uses speed to get up close so it can finish up the

battle with just one attack.

SAWYER: So if I can attack from a distance,

I'll have the advantage!

SERENA: He's really done his research.

CLEMONT: Well, Ash has become Sawyer's role model, so it

doesn't surprise me one bit.

SAWYER: All right, Sceptile, wrap this up!

SCEPTILE: [ATTACK]

ASH: Greninja, can you still battle?

There's no doubt we can win this thing!

GRENINJA: [AFFIRMATIVE]

GRENINJA: [RISING YELL]

SAWYER: Hey, what's going on here?

Sceptile, I think it's time we get this over with! Okay.

SCEPTILE: [AFFIRMATIVE]

ASH: Greninja, let's do this.

ASH: Use Aerial Ace!

GRENINJA: [AERIAL ACE MOVE]

GRENINJA: [CHARGING]

SCEPTILE: [SHOCKED]/[PAINED GRUNT]

SAWYER: Sceptile!

CLEMONT: Sceptile is unable to battle!

Greninja wins! So the match goes to Ash!

ASH: I still won anyway.

SAWYER: No matter what I try, I can't keep up with you, Ash.

But this battle was even more great experience!

SERENA: Hey, Ash!

BONNIE: Are you okay?

ASH: Yeah, but I'm wiped out.

That was a close one, right, Greninja?

GRENINJA: [AFFIRMATIVE]

SAWYER: So Ash, you've gotta tell me what just happened!

How did you do whatever you did? Fill me in!

ASH: I don't really know what I did, Sawyer.

Stuff just FL*SHes in front of my eyes when I get like that...

SAWYER: Oh, I see. No, I don't!

NURSE JOY: Everyone's just fine now!

ASH, SAWYER: Thanks, Nurse Joy!

WIGGLYTUFF: [HAPPY]

PIKACHU: [GREETING]

ASH: Looking good, Pikachu.

PIKACHU: [HAPPY]

BONNIE: Hey over here!

ASH: Okay!

NURSE JOY: Hello there sir, and welcome to the Pokémon Center!

ALAIN: Hi. Would you take care of this?

NURSE JOY: Sure.

WIGGLYTUFF: [AFFIRMATIVE]

DEDENNE: [PLAYFUL]

SAWYER: Hey, your Greninja looked kind of different in

battle, didn't it, Ash?

ASH: Did it?

SAWYER: It sure did! And it was all wrapped up in water!

SAWYER: So please, tell me how the two of you did that, okay?

ASH: I really don't have a clue.

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

SERENA: Actually, none of us have any idea.

BONNIE: It just happens.

CLEMONT: That's true, although so far it's only

happened a few times.

SAWYER: Wow, that's so strange. The way Ash and Greninja were

moving together like that, it's as if they'd become one.

SERENA: It was just like that when it happened before,

wasn't it?

ASH: Well. Kinda, I guess.

ASH: It's really hard to explain. I guess it's like all

the things that Greninja's seeing and doing, I'm seeing

and doing the exact same things at the same time.

SERENA: It sounds like you're telling us you

get fused together.

ASH: Right! Then I start to burn UP! Like I'm on fire!

After that, I wanna go to sleep.

SAWYER: It sounds to me like you turn into Greninja.

ASH: I become Greninja?

PIKACHU: [DISBELIEF]

ASH: That would be kind of cool if it was true...

PIKACHU: [AGREEMENT]

JAMES: What's that nonsense about?

JESSIE: The Twerp becoming Greninja?

MEOWTH: What a wacky idea.

WOBBUFFET: [AGREEMENT]

CLEMONT: That's quite a theory you've got!

BONNIE: That would be so cool!

DEDENNE: [AMAZED]

SERENA: It sure would explain a lot.

SAWYER: They say when the bond between Trainer and Pokémon gets

stronger, they start to look alike. So maybe that might

explain whatever's happening to them since the bond between

Ash and Greninja has gotten so powerful.

ASH: It's our bond? It turns me into Greninja.

LYSANDRE: Alain? As the data I sent to you earlier shows,

the Mega Evolution energy has accumulated according to plan.

ALAIN: Thank you, Lysandre. Also.

LYSANDRE: What's that?

ALAIN: I was wondering how Mairin and Chespin are doing.

LYSANDRE: They're still the same. No change for

either of them.

ALAIN: I understand. Signing off.

ALAIN: I'll keep fighting...I must. Until Chespin recovers,

and Mairin can smile once again.

SAWYER: Ash, let's battle again soon!

ASH: Sure, you bet!

BONNIE: Bye bye, Sawyer!

ASH: "Who's that Pokémon?"

ASH: "It's Honedge!"

LAB MAN: Ready to proceed.

XEROSIC: All right. Let's begin.

LAB WOMAN: Understood.

XEROSIC: Now, all of you please behave.

LAB MAN: All systems are clear.

LAB WOMAN: Recording begun.

XEROSIC: Then let the experiment commence!

LAB MAN: Firing energy.

LAB WOMAN: Expansion in Mega Evolution energy is confirmed.

Z's internal transduction rate is holding steady at %.

XEROSIC: It's just as we calculated.

Let's proceed to the next stage.

LAB WOMAN: Changing beam.

LAB MAN: Energy device position set.

XEROSIC: Fire beam at once!

LAB MAN: Firing!

XEROSIC: Such a remarkable reaction with only Cells.

Simply wonderful!

PIKACHU: [SNORING]

PIKACHU: [SCARED]

ASH: Pikachu!

PIKACHU: [PANICKED]

JESSIE : Rise and shine, losers!

ASH: What are you doing here?!

JESSIE: We're making trouble, so get prepared!

JAMES: We'll make it double; you should be scared!

JESSIE: To protect the world from devastation!

JAMES: To unite all people within our nation!

JESSIE: To denounce the evils of sleeping late!

JAMES: To extend our reach and seal Pikachu's fate!

JESSIE: Jessie!

JAMES: And James.

JESSIE: Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!

JAMES: Surrender now or prepare for an early-morning fight!

MEOWTH: Meowth, that's right!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

ASH: Team Rocket! All right, Pikachu, Thunderbolt!

PIKACHU: [THUNDERBOLT MOVE]/[CONFUSED]

MEOWTH: Wasting electricity isn't good for the environment!

JAMES: The early team hatches a great scheme!

MEOWTH: This's like taking candy from a baby,

or a crib full!

JESSIE: Now, why not go back to sleep?

JAMES: You're only one Pikachu lighter.

MEOWTH: Meanwhile, we'll just head off into the sunrise!

JESSIE: Time flies.

PIKACHU: [CALLING]

ASH: Pikachu no!

ASH: You guys aren't gonna get away with this!

JESSIE: You Twerps need your beauty sleep!

JAMES: And lots of it!

JESSIE: Gourgeist!

JAMES: Inkay!

WOBBUFFET: [AFFIRMATIVE]

ASH: Pikachu!

PIKACHU: [RELIEVED]

ALAIN: Well done, Charizard.

PIKACHU: [HAPPY]

SERENA: Hey are you two all right?

ASH: You bet! Thanks to you.

ALAIN: I'm impressed.

Firing a midair Thunderbolt while falling to the ground!

ASH: But if Charizard hadn't been there, it wouldn't have

worked. Thanks a lot, Charizard.

PIKACHU: [GRATEFUL]

CHARIZARD: [PLEASED]

ASH: Is that a Mega Stone? That means Charizard is able to...

ALAIN: Care to see? How about a battle between my Charizard

and your Greninja?

ALAIN: I saw you battle yesterday.

I'd like to see more of that.

ASH: That'd be great. Let's go for it!

The battle will be over when either Pokémon is unable

to continue. Agreed?
