22x16 - Memories in the Mist!

Post by bunniefuu »

[narrator] Our heroes

are just about to wrap up

their Poni Island research projects.

And today, at the Pokémon Center,

they're joined by Hapu!

Say, that's a Flyinium Z!

Kiawe's new Z-Move...

It was just the coolest thing ever!

-Wish I could have seen your, uh...

-It's Supersonic Skystrike!

I really outdid myself yesterday.

So, that means you passed

Tapu Fini's trial.

I wish it would hurry up

and acknowledge me as island kahuna.

-My grandpa gets all the credit.

-For what?

For winning the battle against Tapu Fini.

I remembered what he said to me

when I was just a little boy.

-His powerful words gave me strength!

-[squeaks]

-Huh?

-Huh?

-[squeaks]

-Pika. Pika.

-Sandy, please! Stop!

-Togedemaru!

-Is it okay?

-[chirps]

Pika!

I've seen this guy... Kiawe?

Hmm?

-Remember? From yesterday!

-You're right!

Are you referring to my grandfather?

[in unison] Your grandfather?

The island kahuna?

The second to last kahuna

here on Poni Island?

Wait. What we're trying to tell you

is that we just met him yesterday!

You've got to be confusing him

with someone else,

because Hapu's grandfather...

But this guy is the guy we met!

He was full of energy!

-It must be Tapu Fini's powers.

-Huh.

Because Tapu Fini is the guardian

of the Ruins of Hope.

It has the mysterious power

to connect people

with those who are no longer

of this world.

Huh?

-I guess it must be true.

-Huh?

Uh, the reason my brother Gladion

came here to see Tapu Fini

was to ask if he could meet

with our departed father.

I see.

Hapu, do you think Tapu Fini

would actually allow us

to see our dear father again?

Well, I know your wish to see him

is strong.

But you must be careful,

because within Tapu Fini's mist

the line between this world

and the next blurs,

-and some have been unable to return.

-[gasps]

Reunited, it's hard to say goodbye

to someone you care about

for a second time,

after longing to see them.

Those who can't bear

to feel those difficult feelings

-could be trapped in the mist forever.

-[gasping] Huh?

Uh, sorry. I'm going outside.

Tsareena.

Maybe Mallow wants the same thing.

Mm-hm.

When Mallow was really young,

her mother got really sick.

-Uh, I'll go, too!

-I got this!

Huh?

[Ash] Memories in the Mist!

Your mom. Would you like to see her again?

Of course you would...

-No, I don't!

-Huh?

[humming]

Oh, Mommy, I've been looking forward to

our fun walk today for such a long time!

Me too.

I'm sorry that it couldn't be sooner.

That's okay.

You were in the hospital getting better!

Sorry I got sick.

Come on. I get sick too!

I forgot to tell you!

I got sick and went to the hospital

the other day with daddy!

I know. Daddy told me everything.

You're so brave!

-He told me you took all of your medicine!

-Yup!

Mallow? I'm sorry I wasn't there

when you were sick.

-Hmm?

-[squeaks]

-Look, Mommy! It's a Pokémon!

-That Pokémon is called Bounsweet.

Aw, so cute!

Shall we catch it?

-Can we?

-If we're lucky.

-[laughs] We just might!

-It's a Poké Ball!

-Go!

-[squeaks]

Pretty please?

-Got it!

-This is our lucky day!

[laughs] Lucky!

-[squeaks]

-[mom] Nice to meet you, Bounsweet.

[Mallow] So cute!

-My sister! My cute little sister!

-[squeaks]

Little sister. Aw!

Soon after that, my mom was admitted

to the hospital again.

The more I visited,

the more she apologized.

She apologized all the time.

I didn't like her apologizing.

Not one bit!

It wasn't her fault. She was sick.

But now that I'm older,

I kind of understand how my mom felt,

-even though I didn't at the time.

-[Lana] Mallow...

But then, at the time...

[sobbing] All you do is say you're sorry!

-Mommy, I hate you!

-But, Mallow...

[sobs] I hate you!

[squeaks]

Those were the last words

I said to my mother.

[sobs] I just can't.

After all the things I said...

I can't face her.

[weeping]

It's been so long

since I've had houseguests.

And so many of them. It's fun!

Thanks for having us!

-Tsareena.

-Oh, sorry, Tsareena.

-I didn't mean to worry you.

-Tsareena.

That goes for everyone!

-Now, now. Please, think nothing of it!

-Yeah. it's fun. Right!

Hey, what do we do

once we get to your house, Hapu?

We have to help her plant

Poni Radish seeds before anything else.

Right. I knew that. Yup.

[Ash] There you go.

Pika. Pika.

[squeaks]

Now become a big Poni Radish, okay?

Tsareena.

All right then, next up?

[grunting]

[Lillie panting]

[Sophocles grunting]

[gasps] No way!

-And she always does this by herself?

-Hapu's amazing!

-[all] One, two...

-[squeaking]

Silvally, Air Slash, let's go!

-Lycanroc, Stone Edge, now!

-[grunting]

[gasps]

Huh. Is this Tapu Fini's mist?

Where is everybody? Answer me, please!

-[Lana] Where are you, Hapu?

-[Hapu] I'm over here!

[Kiawe] Don't move! I'll come to you!

And the weather was so nice until now.

It's just like yesterday's mist!

Where are the others? Mallow! Lillie! Ash!

Can you hear my voice? Answer me!

-Pika?

-Kiawe! Hey, Sophocles!

-Torracat!

-[Rotom] Hello?

Where are you?

-Everyone?

-Tsareena.

Mallow! Lana!

-[squeaks]

-It's so strange.

Is Hapu's farm really as big

as it seems to be now?

Huh? What a relief.

I thought I had gotten lost in the mist!

-Lillie?

-Gladion! What are you doing here?

And what are you doing wandering

in the forest?

Forest? I thought this was Hapu's farm.

All of us were visiting her at her house

before this happened!

-What?

-[gasps]

-Could this be Tapu Fini's mist?

-[gasps]

[Lana] Mallow!

-Say something, Ash!

-Tell us where you are, Lillie!

They're trapped in the mist

Tapu Fini created.

[gasping]

[Hapu] Once inside the mist,

that's where the boundaries of this world

and the next blur.

They could be so close,

but at the same time, so far away.

So, they can reunite with those

who are no longer with us!

[gasps] Lillie mentioned she wanted

to see her father, didn't she?

And I think Mallow

does want to see her mother!

Then what about Ash?

Do you think he has somebody

that he wants to see in the mist too?

[gasping]

-[panting]

-Torracat, wait up!

-Where are you going?

-[squeaks]

-[howling]

-What's this all about?

[all] Who's that Pokémon?

It's Golbat!

[Golbat snarls]

[Ash] Stoutland?

[squeaking]

Stoutland.

[Stoutland grunts]

Stoutland.

-It really is Stoutland!

-Pika. Pika!

Unbelievable!

Stoutland, long time no see! Huh?

-[squeaks]

-It doesn't matter how.

You've missed Stoutland so much,

and now you get to say hi!

[chattering]

-Torracat!

-[chatters]

That was some Fire Fang!

[squeaks]

-Now it's using Flame Charge!

-[squeaks]

Torracat!

Now it's using Ember!

-[chuckles]

-Pika.

It wants Stoutland to check out

all the new moves that it's learned.

Stoutland.

[chatters]

-Torracat!

-[chatters]

[gasping]

-[Ash] Awesome!

-[Rotom] Stoutland punched that Ember

and it transformed into Fire Blast!

-Stoutland.

-[chirps]

-Stoutland's training Torracat!

-[barks]

Torracat.

Father, are you somewhere in this mist?

Father?

Father, it's me, Lillie!

It would be wonderful to see you!

[gasp] Father!

If you're here, please show yourself!

Father!

-What do we do now? We're lost.

-Tsareena.

-[mother] Mallow?

-Huh?

Hi.

[gasps]

[gasps]

Mommy. Mommy! Mom!

Tsareena.

Look how big you've grown!

-And Bounsweet, you've evolved, too!

-Tsareena.

[sobs]

[sobbing]

-Mallow?

-I'm sorry, Mom!

[sobbing]

For saying I hated you. I'm so sorry!

[sobbing]

-It's okay, Mallow. There...

-But, but...

It's my fault. I'm to blame for that.

I'm so sorry.

That's not true. [sobs]

You didn't do anything wrong, dear.

-Listen to me.

-Hmm?

You know what?

Instead of saying "I'm sorry,"

this is what I should have said.

-I should've said thanks.

-[sobbing]

-[sobbing]

-I'm thanking you now.

For coming into this world

as my sweet little girl.

[sobbing]

And I thank you

for bringing so much love and happiness

to me, your father, and your brother, too.

[sobs] Mom...

I thank you for raising Bounsweet

so wonderfully.

Tsareena.

And thank you for nurturing

the Family Restaurant with love.

Thank you, dear!

For growing up so good and compassionate,

and with such a loving heart.

-Thank you--

-Mom, stop!

[sniffling]

Let me try again!

[gasps]

Just forget the apology

I just gave, please?

[inhales, then sighs]

Thank you, Mom. So very much!

For always being such a cheerful

and kind mother.

And thank you for making such yummy meals

for me every day.

Thank you for taking

all those wonderful walks with me

that I always loved so very much!

And thank you

for catching Bounsweet just for me

so I wouldn't ever have to be lonely.

Mallow...

Know what else?

Thank you for bringing me into this world!

[gasps]

Lana, Kiawe, Sophocles!

Stay right here

until everybody comes back!

-Mudsdale!

-[neighs]

Torracat.

-Pika!

-It split a little!

Torracat, you can do it!

-Pika. Pika.

-Stoutland.

Torracat.

[squeaks]

-[squeaks]

-Pika.

Torracat's Ember move turned

into a Fire Blast!

-Pikachu!

-Wow, you did it, Torracat!

-Torracat.

-[grunts]

Mudsdale, wait right here!

Tapu Fini! I want you

to return Lillie, Mallow, and Ash!

Tapu Fini!

Do it right now before they can no longer

return to this world!

Please I'm begging you!

Tapu Fini!

-This is no time to be dancing!

-Tapu...

...Fini.

Listen, if you're not going

to return them,

I'll have to get them back by force!

Golurk!

-Ready, Golurk?

-[grunts]

Use Flash Cannon!

Golurk!

Tapu! Tapu!

[gasps] Huh?

Is that...?

-[man] Hapu!

-[gasps]

Grandpa! [chuckles]

Hapu? Tapu Fini has acknowledged you

as Poni Island's newest kahuna.

Is that true?

[grandpa] The Flash Cannon you used

in order to save your friends...

The truth is using that move

really touched Tapu Fini's heart.

[gasps]

-My congrats!

-[laughs]

Tapu Fini, then you'll return them?

Tapu Fini!

[gasps] The mist...

Tsareena.

Mallow?

I'll always be by your side.

Thank you, Mom.

I know you can't see it, but my heart

will always be connected to your heart,

-your father's, and your brother's.

-Mm-hm.

[gasps]

Mommy! [gasps]

[gasps]

Shaymin.

[purring]

[squeaks]

-Pika.

-Hey, Stoutland!

Look, the mist is clearing!

[squeaks]

[chatters]

-[gasping]

-Pika!

-[Lillie] Is that...?

-Lillie! Gladion! Did you see?

[both] Ash!

-Over there!

-[gasping]

-[Kiawe] You're safe!

-We were worried about you!

-[Mallow] Guys!

-Huh?

[Lana] Mallow!

Thank goodness you're all right!

-That's a rare Mythical Pokémon, Shaymin!

-Shaymin?

[Rotom] Shaymin. The Gratitude Pokémon.

A Grass type.

When it rolls itself up,

it looks like a flower.

During the season

when Gracidea flowers bloom,

Shaymin changes form

and takes flight to show its gratitude.

Oh, Shaymin, will you stay with me

until the day you take flight?

Shaymin.

Thank you!

-[chirps]

-Shaymin is so cute.

Hey, Lana, guess who I just saw? My mom!

[gasps]

-And we got to see Stoutland!

-Torracat.

I don't understand.

I can't figure out why father

didn't show himself to us.

Because he's alive. He must be!

[gasping]

If the two of you had a strong desire

to see your father again,

but it didn't come to pass,

that means your father is alive.

[gasping]

He must be somewhere

in this vast world of ours.

You mean father's alive

and living somewhere in the world?

-Incredible. We've got to tell mother!

-Yes, we do!

Let's tell her right away!

-Silvally!

-[Hapu] Gladion!

And the next time you come to Poni Island,

-I will grant you your grand trial!

-[gasps]

So, does that actually mean...?

Tapu Fini acknowledged me

as the new kahuna of Poni Island!

-I knew it, Hapu!

-Congratulations, Hapu!

What wonderful news!

Hmm.

Hold on!

Let me have my grand trial right now!

Ash, I know that you're impatient,

but slow down.

Grand trials can only be held after

the ceremony that makes me Island Kahuna.

Then right after the ceremony!

[groans] I accept!

[narrator]

Mallow saw her mother in Tapu Fini's mist.

Torracat saw its dear friend Stoutland.

With another valuable experience etched

in their hearts,

our heroes have taken

another step forward.

Also, for Ash,

his Poni Island grand trial awaits,

as the journey continues!
