01x15 - Reuniting for the First Time! (Eievui and Nymphia! Encounter and Reunion!!)

[bunniefuu]

[Chrysa] Come to think of it, Chloe.

Didn't you say
you'd like to meet a Sylveon?

I do!

Sylveon is the only Eevee Evolution
I haven't met yet.

Well, I was just contacted by Kiley.

Kiley? Wasn't he Vaporeon's Trainer?

Right!

His hometown is Lilycove City,

and they're holding
a Pokémon Contest there.

It seems a Sylveon and its Trainer
are favored to win.

[Rotom Phone] Sylveon.

The Intertwining Pokémon.

A Fairy type.

Sylveon's ribbonlike feelers
send out waves

that have a calming effect
and can put a stop to conflicts.

If it places its feelers on its Trainer,

Sylveon can understand their emotions.

That's perfect for competing in Contests!

-[Cerise] Would you like to go?
-Huh?

[Chloe] Dad!

'Course I would!

So, Eevee, wanna go?

Eev, eev.

It turns out
Goh and Ash are already on their way

-to Lilycove City.
-[Chloe] Huh?

What I really wanna do is catch
an Altaria like the one Ash just battled!

So, on our way back,
we're planning to stop at Lilycove City.

I figured you'd be able to meet up
with them there.

Great!

Then it's off to Lilycove City.

-Now let's go!
-Eevee!

[theme music]

[Chloe] "Reuniting..."

[Goh and Ash] "For the first time."

[narrator] This is Lilycove City,
located in the Hoenn region.

And just as Chloe and Eevee arrive
at the Contest Hall...

[Lisia] Hi, everybody!

-Huh?
-[Ali chitters]

Well then, watch me dive in!

It's dazzling!

Dizzying!

[all] Dizzying!

Lisia's Miraculous Contest

is Scouting!

-[all cheer]
-[Lisia] All right!

I'm going to bring
another fantastic Trainer

into the world of contesting!

Let's see.
[gasps]

[Lisia] You, watching
with that baffled expression on your face!

-Me?
-Eevee?

[Lisia] Have you never joined
in a Contest?

Uh... never.

[Lisia] That's just what I want to hear!

Then let's get this show on the road!

Folks, this is the Trainer
I'm going to scout today!

[gasps]
Talent scout?

What's your name?

[Chloe] Wait a minute!
I don't think I could possibly...

Won't you tell me?

Please?

[warbling]

[both yell]

Oh, no.

And that's the only Altaria
we've seen so far today.

-[Lisia] Now listen, Chloe...
-[both] Huh?

Contest Spectaculars
aren't just about strength.

It's also about presenting the world

with a whole new brilliant side
of your Pokémon!

-A whole new brilliant side of them?
-Right!

[Lisia] I'm sure you can do that
for your Eevee as well!

-Eevee?
-[Lisia] You want that, don't you?

Here you go. Take these!

A Contest Pass and a Pokéblock Case.

So, Chloe and Eevee's story begins
on this very day!

Yep! And this chapter should be titled...

Something like "A Sudden Encounter!

Miraculous Contest Scouting!" Yeah!

This has been Lisia coming to you
from Lilycove Hall!

See you, everyone!

-Bye-bye!
-[Ali cheering]

Try your hand in a Contest for me,
okay, Chloe?

Uh, but wait!

[men chattering]

[door closes]

-Eevee.
-Eevee, where are you going?

[girl] Use Fairy Wind!

-[Sylveon chitters]
-[girl laughs]

Wow, it's Sylveon.

[gasps, chuckles]
You're the contestant Lisia scouted!

[Chloe splutters]
How did you know?

I saw the live broadcast!

[gasps]
That is just so embarrassing!

[chuckles]
I'm Serena.

And this is Sylveon.

-[both chitter]
-[Serena] That's such a cute Eevee!

Why, thank you so much!

So are you a contestant?

[Serena] Yeah!

Then you're the Sylveon Trainer
that everyone's talking about?

I can't guarantee that it's me,

but I do intend to work with Lisia
to make the Contest a huge success.

I really wanted to show your performance
with Sylveon to my Eevee,

so we came from Kanto!

Show it to Eevee?

[lively music]

[Serena gasps]

[Serena] I love the sound of that.

[Chloe] What?

[Serena] The Trainer doesn't choose.

Eevee makes its own decision
about how it's going to evolve.

Sounds simple,
but I've never seen it happen before.

-Wow. Really?
-Mm-hm.

Sylveon is a great example.

[Serena] As an Eevee,
it was an amazing dancer!

And always wanted us
to dance along with it.

It's more fun that way.

And as we traveled together,

we started understanding
each other's feelings.

[Chloe] And that's when you decided
on Sylveon?

[Serena] Right!
[chuckles]

So, has your Eevee decided?

How's it going to evolve?

I don't know.

I see.

-Miss Serena?
-Call me Serena.

Forget the formalities!

Then please call me Chloe.

Serena, why did you decide
to enter Pokémon Contests?

Huh?

I'm a lot like my Eevee, you see.

I never really know
what I want to do in the future.

Wow, sounds like
you're a lot like I used to be.

[Chloe gasps]

In the beginning, I went out on my journey

without having any goals
or dreams, or anything.

But then, I saw
an amazing Pokémon performance!

It really moved me.

Here's what I wanna do.

I wanna become the kind of performer

who inspires the whole audience!

It's really fun to have a dream
and go for it.

There are times
when things go terribly wrong.

But when things go right,
it makes me so happy.

Serena, when you're talking
about your dreams,

you seem to just sparkle!

Yeah?

I think it's because of my Pokémon.

-[Rotom Phone] You have a call from Goh.
-Huh?

-You have a call from Goh.
-Excuse me!

[Chloe whispers]
Hello?

[Goh] Chloe?
You're going to enter a Contest?

[Chloe] Oh, you saw that too, Goh?

Um... I'm still thinking it over.

All right, then, we're going to head over
to the hall right now!

See you soon!

-Got it. So why don't we meet at...
-[call end tone]

Honestly.

So, what are you gonna do?

Your friends are waiting, right?

Yeah.

So, what am I gonna do?

What do you think, Eevee?

-[Eevee] Eevee.
-[sighs]

What do you think?

Let's see...

When in doubt, give stuff a try!

'Cause even if you goof up,
you'll learn something.

There's nothing you could ever do
that's a waste of time!

[Serena] If you like,
I'll help you get ready.

Great!

Let's give it a try!

Eev, vee, vee!

[Ash and Goh panting]

[Ash] Do you think that's it?

Yup! I think we're on time!

[man] Well, if it isn't Ash?

[both gasp]

[man] I knew it!

So I wonder if you remember me.

-Let's see...
-[gasps]

I refuse to greet one who sees this visage
and gets no inspiration.

-[Ash] Right!
-[both pant]

Hold it right there.

Recall that your friends
May and Dawn participated

in a certain Wallace Cup.

-Well...
-Huh!

[Ash] I remember now!

You're the Contest Master, Wallace!

Oui.

So you do remember me after all. Good.

Now, as luck would have it,
my niece, the top Idol Lisia,

is appearing in this very Contest.

Excuse us, but we're supposed to go
and see the same Contest ourselves.

And it looks like
it's just about to start...

[Ash] Later!

-[Ash grunts]
-There's no need to be in such a rush.

As a matter of fact,
I've noticed a certain Trainer named Ash

in the World Coronation Series.

You have? Well, thanks.

I'm not in the Series,
but since we've met,

I must assume that it's fate.

-What say we battle, eh?
-Huh?

I am a Trainer who can keep up in battle
with the Champion of the Hoenn region.

Oh! You mean Steven Stone?

Well, you had no trouble
remembering his name.

But I'll refuse to take any offense.

We really don't have time for a battle...

-Let's do it!
-Come on!

I want you to show me.

Show me your Pokémon power!

And I, in turn, shall present you
with a once in a lifetime performance of...

water illusions by my Pokémon and me!

[Chloe] What will I choose?

[Serena] Whichever one you like!

[Chloe] Oh, this one's really cute!

But... maybe it's a bit too flashy?

Well, that's the costume
the Princess of Hoenn once wore!

I'm sure it'll look wonderful on you!

[reluctant grunt]

When you take the stage wearing this,

you might just meet a "you"
you've never ever seen before!

-Huh?
-And I don't just mean you...

[Serena] Eevee, too!

Eevee, vee?

[Serena] Ta-da!
[chuckles]

Pretty!

Now you'll match with Chloe!

[gibbering excitedly]

Now get on that stage
and shine like twinkling stars!

-That means both of you!
-[awkward chuckle]

Chloe? When you're in doubt...

First off... give stuff a try!

Is that right?

-Exactly!
-Eevee.

[Serena] So now let's think
about creating your performance.

-Eevee!
-[Chloe] Yeah!

[Ash] "Who's that Pokémon?"

-Pika?
-[Sylveon] Sylveon.

Pika, pika!

[announcer] Hello, everyone!

Your attention, please!

The Lilycove Pokémon Contest
is about to begin!

First up, we'll be bringing you
the Normal Rank performances.

It's already started.

-[Dragonite and Swampert growl]
-Dragonite, great!

Swampert, use Muddy Water!

Swampert.

Now, Breloom! Use b*llet Seed!

[grunting]

[audience cheering]

Ee...

Here we go, Spheal. Use Aurora Beam!

Spheal, spheal!
[chitters]

[audience cheering]

-[man] So cool.
-Eevee.

They're all simply amazing!

I really hope that I do all right.

-[Serena] Chloe?
-Huh?

[Chloe] Serena!

Feeling a little nervous?

A lot.

[Serena] So were Sylveon and I
the first time we took the stage.

But remember, a performer
always has to come out with a smile.

I'm trying not to,
but I keep thinking about

what will happen if it doesn't go well.

[Serena] You'll be fine!

You're not doing it all by yourself!

Your Pokémon is there helping you,
so do your best.

-Really?
-[Serena] Trust Eevee.

-Eevee.
-[soft chuckle]

-Let's give it our all!
-Eevee, vee.

[announcer] It's our next performer's
very first Contest!

Please welcome Chloe!

All right, it's Chloe's turn!

Now, Dracovish, Water g*n!

You can take it! You hear, Walrein!

[grunts]

[Goh] And Chloe's up right now, Ash.

[announcer] It's showtime, Chloe!

[audience cheering]

Professor!

-Look at this!
-Oh.

[Cerise] Ch... Chloe?

[Yamper pants]

[audience cheering]

[breathing nervously]

Eevee. Eevee, vee.

[soft gasp]

Eevee, thank you!

Eevee!

[breathes deeply]

I know the perfect move!

We'll use the power
the audience has given us!

Eevee, vee.

[upbeat music]

[chuckles]

Now, use Fairy Wind!

Vee...

-Ride the wind, use Tackle!
-Eevee.

Ee... vee.

-They're great!
-Sylveon.

Vee.

[audience cheering]

[announcer]
And the crowd gives Chloe and Eevee

-a very warm reception!
-Eevee.

Those two are giving quite a performance!

Aren't they great, Professor?

-Huh?
-Hmm?

Oh... I'm so nervous.

[Cerise] And I'm only watching!

Chloe's so cool!

Grookey, key!

-[Ash] Dracovish! You were great!
-[Wallace] Walrein, return!

Who won?

I should have known.

That was a wonderful battle.

[soft chuckle]
Yeah, sure was!

-[sighs]
-[Wallace] All right, next!

-[Ash] Pikachu, I choose you!
-[Wallace] Come out, Milotic!

[gasps]

-Pikachu.
-[Goh] You're still not done?

[announcer] Finally, the moment
you've all been waiting for!

The Master Rank performers!

Our first made her name in Kalos,

and continues to gain popularity in Hoenn!

Welcome Serena!

-[audience cheering]
-[exciting music]

Eevee.

My heart... it's beating so fast!

-Okay, let's go!
-[Pokémon chittering]

-Delphox, use Mystical Fire!
-Delphox.

-Pancham, use Dark Pulse!
-Pancham.

-Sylveon, use Swift!
-Veon.

[grunts]

[laughs]

[mutters]

Sylveon!

-Eevee.
-So great!

They're amazing!

Delphox, use Flamethrower!

[grunting, laughs]

[Serena] Sylveon, use Quick Attack!

[Sylveon shrieks]

[Serena] Pancham, use Ice Punch!

-Great!
-[Pancham] Cham. Pancham.

[grunts]

-Now, for a grand finish!
-Veon.

-Phox!
-Pancham!

[grunting]

Finale time.

[chattering excitedly]

Serena and Sylveon.

Both of them are the best!

[announcer] The Master Rank
always guarantees a close Contest.

And for our last contestant,

we present the top performer
from the Hoenn region!

The Contest Idol.

It's Lisia!

[audience cheering]

It's dazzling!

Dizzying!

[audience] Dizzying!

Welcome to the Miraculous Lisia's
special performance!

-[man 1] Yeah! All right.
-[man 2] Lisia! Yeah!

Ali, now. Time for Mist!

[Ali screams]

[audience] Lisia!

Mega Shining!

Let's go!

[Ali screams]

And now, even more shine!

[Ali screams]

[exciting music]

[chitters]

Use Draco Meteor!

[Ali grunting]

-[groans]
-[Wallace] Milotic, return!

To think that I, who am on par
with Champion What's-His-Name,

could be defeated, I tip my cap.

-You were elegant, infuriatingly so.
-[chuckles]

[Wallace] And yet,
it was utterly glorious!

Kudos to you, Ash!

-As I have come to expect from you.
-Thank you!

It was great practice for me!

-[Goh] Right! Let's go!
-[Wallace] Wait right there!

Now, you are now able
to claim your Rain Badge.

-Oh...
-I'm gone!

One more thing!

-[Pikachu] Pika.
-Please take this as a memento

-of your battle with me.
-Oh.

You see, many paths are open to you now.

It's your choice.

One path would take you
to the World Coronation Series.

Or you could pursue Poké...

[drumbeats]

[announcer] And now it's time to announce
our Contest winner!

-And the winner is...
-[excited chuckle]

The points are tied,
so we have two winners!

Lisia and Serena!

All right! Congratulations!

You too, Lisia!

-[soft chuckle]
-Eevee, vee.

[cheers and applause]

-[Wallace] And from now on...
-[sighs]

...I will hope
that a bright future waits for you,

whatever path it is you may choose.

Sure thing. Thanks a bunch! Huh?

[Goh] It's an Altaria!

-Wait for me!
-[Altaria] Altaria.

[Ash] Goh?

If you don't mind,
I'd like you to have this.

-You're sure?
-[excited chitter]

Sure, I'm sure!

Sylveon will be happy too.

[Chloe] Thanks so much, Sylveon!

Veon.

So, Chloe, how did you like the Contest?

Both Eevee and I met
brand-new versions of ourselves,

and it's all thanks to you two.

Thanks for giving us that extra push!

Hey, don't mention it!

When I started my journey,
my friends did the same for me.

It was just my turn.

So, what will you do now, Serena?

Well, actually, Lisia...

Hey, Serena!

-You wanna team up and form an Idol unit?
-Huh?

Now I'm wondering if I should...

[chuckles]
Know what?

When you're in doubt...

[both] Give stuff a try!

-Uh-huh!
-You know?

[both laughing]

[ship honk honks]

Wow. Where are they?

Uh, is something wrong?

My friends should've been here.

Oh, well.

-I'm going.
-Okay. But let's meet up again!

-I'll see you! Bye!
-Eevee.

Veon.

[soft chuckle]

-[Ash and Goh] Chloe!
-Huh?

[Chloe] Now, where have you two been?

-[Ash] I was battling Wallace!
-[Goh] I was catching an Altaria!

Is that Ash?

-[Goh and Ash] Huh?
-Serena!

It is you!

[Ash] How have you been?

-Me? I've been doing just fine!
-Sylveon.

-You're looking great, Pikachu!
-Pikachu.

You know each other?

She's a good friend
from some of my journeys.

-[ship horn honks]
-[both gasp]

So, I'm entered in the Pokémon
World Coronation Series,

and I'm aiming to be the very best!

I've been competing
in Contest Spectaculars!

If you'll be the best Trainer,

then I guess I'm gonna have to be
the Top Coordinator!

So we'll both do our best!

You bet! Aim for the top!

I'll be cheering for you

and cheering for Chloe too!

[Ash] Right backatcha!

-[Chloe] Thanks, Serena!
-[Ash] Catch you later!

[ship horn honking]

[chitters]

-Shall we go?
-Veon.

[chuckles]

[narrator]
Ash and Serena are working their hardest

toward achieving their goals.

And someday,
Chloe will have goals of her own,

as the journey continues!

[closing theme music]
