07x33 - Grass Hysteria!

[bunniefuu]

Oh, no.

I think we might be completely lost again.

[AGREEMENT]

[beeping]

And I can't even get a signal.

I guess the PokéNav's not going to help us much.

BROCK 'That's strange..'

The compass is acting weird

and this area we're in isn't anywhere on the map.

Now I'm getting the creeps.

Can we just get out of here, right now?

[bushes rustling]

ASH/BROCK/MAY/MAX What was that?

[ANGRY]

It's a Skarmory.

SKARMORY [ANGRY]

[APPEARING]

PIKACHU/SKITTY [ALARMED]/[CURIOUS]

[ANGRY]

- Skitty. - May, look out.

[ANGRY]

It got May!

- Oh, no! - Oh, no!

[May whimpering]

Come on.

- Yeah! - Yeah!

[EXERTION]

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

- 'Stop.' - Huh?

I'm afraid this is the end of the line for you.

ASH/BROCK/MAX What?

[SURPRISED]

NARRATOR Furiously running to save May and Skitty

from the clutches of a Skarmory

our heroes have suddenly found their paths

blocked by two mysterious hooded men.

Now what will become of May?

ASH "Grass Hysteria."

VILLAGER A No one is allowed to pass through this point.

VILLAGER B That is the law here.

You must leave this forest immediately.

But we can't.

'Cause my sister and her Skitty

were carried off by a Skarmory.

We were chasing them

and they just flew over this gate.

What?

You're saying a human

has gone beyond this gate?

Can you help? We've gotta find her.

[PLEADING]

This could really mean trouble.

We better go speak with Old Man Obee

about this right now.

Yeah, you're right. Okay, come with us.

BROCK Guess we'd better go.

- Okay.. - Okay..

SKARMORY [EXERTION]

[May groaning]

SKARMORY [EXERTION]

Huh?

SKARMORY [CALLING]

[sighs]

Finally.

Skitty, are you okay?

[AFFIRMATIVE]

I know what.

Get some rest, huh?

BULBASAUR [EXERTION]

Hmm?

[EXERTION]

It's a Bulbasaur.

[FOCUSED]/[EXERTION]

[HAPPY]

[PANICKED]

Oh, no!

[SURPRISED]

Hold still..

There.. Are you okay now?

[AFFIRMATIVE]

[SURPRISED]/[NERVOUS]

Don't be scared.

I won't hurt you, Bulbasaur.

My name is May.

[CURIOUS]

[giggles] Hey, that tickles.

[HAPPY]

SUNFLORA/WEEPINBELL/GLOOM [ANGRY]

[gasps] What? What's wrong?

POOCHYENA GROUP [CONTENT]

I understand how you're feeling

but I'm afraid there's nothing I can do.

The truth is the land that lies beyond that gate

is strictly off limits to all humans

under any circumstances, whatsoever.

ASH/BROCK/MAX Off limits?

[SURPRISED]

The law states that whosoever sets foot inside

will incur the wrath, the wrath of the Grass Pokémon.

So wait a minute. What's gonna happen to my sister?

You expect us to leave her in there and do nothing?

Well, forget it. We're gonna save her.

[AGREEMENT]

Hmm, then I would ask that you wait here

while we go and figure out

how to best handle the situation.

JAMES 'Hmm, the wrath of the Grass Pokémon.'

Couldn't be worse than Jessie on a bad hair day.

You know, that forbidden territory

must be overflowing with super powerful Grass Pokémon.

[AGREEMENT]

I smell a gift-giving opportunity for you know who.

Catch those Pokémon, give them to the Boss.

Do we wanna make a lot of money?

TEAM ROCKET But, of course.

What do you say we start planning?

- Yeah! - Yeah!

[EXCITED]

SUNFLORA/GLOOM/WEEPINBELL [ANGRY]

Wow, what did I do?

Why are they all so angry at me?

Hmm, they're sure taking their sweet time.

If we don't hurry, May's gonna get hit

by that Pokémon wrath stuff.

- Let's just go. - Huh?

We can't just sit around here and wait.

Let's go and save May.

[AGREEMENT]

But, it's the law.

No matter what the reason, we can't break it.

There's a girl being held c*ptive

by a Skarmory.

And Skarmory could care less about the law.

I guess I can see what you're saying..

POOCHYENA GROUP [EXCITED]/[CALLING]

Huh?

Look! The kids have disappeared.

Is it possible they've gone to the forbidden land?

Well, if they have, bring them back.

[grunting]

VILLAGER A Stop it. You can't go in there.

- Ahh.. - Here they come.

[ANGRY]

Grab onto the vines.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

You gotta hurry and go help May.

You're right.

GROUP [EXCITED]/[ANGRY]

I can't figure out why they're so mad at me.

Come on, Torchic, let's go.

TORCHIC [AFFIRMATIVE]

Uhh...you've got to believe me.

Pikachu, I want you to clear a path for us

using your Thunderbolt.

[AFFIRMATIVE]

[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

GROUP [FEARFUL]

- Quick, run! - Okay.

PIKACHU [EXERTION]

We heard this is forbidden land

and if humans come in, they'll get attacked

by Grass Pokémon.

But it isn't my fault that I ended up coming in here.

SUNFLORA GROUP [ANGRY]

ASH This way.

[ANGRY]

Pikachu, time to give them another Thunderbolt.

[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

JUMPLUFF GROUP [FEARFUL]

ASH Thanks, Pikachu.

PIKACHU [AFFIRMATIVE]

TORCHIC [EXCITED]

Huh?

MAY Let's try over there.

ASH Yeah.

Now there's no place left to run.

GLOOM [ANGRY]

[gasping]

GROUP [ANNOYED]

Please listen to me, I didn't come here

on purpose, I promise you.

And I would never even think

to hurt any of you, ever.

PIKACHU/TORCHIC [AGREEMENT]

GROUP [ANGRY]

Doesn't look like they're in any kind of mood

to listen to you.

You're right. So, what do we do now?

GROUP [EXERTION]

VENUSAUR [CALLING]

GROUP [SURPRISED]

VENUSAUR [CALLING]

What's that?

Venusaur.

Hey, there's a Bulbasaur too.

[CURIOUS]

Oh, whoa..

...uh-oh..

I think it must be checking us out.

TORCHIC [CONFUSED]

BULBASAUR [PLEADING]

VENUSAUR [UNCERTAIN]

TORCHIC [CONFUSED]

Oh, Torchic?

[NEGATIVE]

That's right, Grass Pokémon

don't like Fire Pokémon like Torchic.

Oh, yeah.

Torchic, return now.

Venusaur, I hope you understand

I never meant to upset you

and I'm sorry this happened.

[AGREEMENT]/[FOCUSED]

MEOWTH 'Venusaur's tellin' the rest of those Pokémon'

'that the Twerps saved their Bulbasaur buddy'

and so then, they must be telling the truth

about being good. And that's that.

You know, that Venusaur must carry a lot

of weight in their community.

Forget about how fat it is, it's obviously their boss.

Look how they hang onto every word..

Hey, guys, listen up.

I'll bet you that Venusaur knows some pretty good moves.

Why, Jessie, are you suggesting that we steal that mammoth lug?

Well, then, I suggest we steal

those other ones while we're at it.

WOBBUFFET [AGREEMENT]

MAY Look at this place, it's beautiful.

ASH No wonder the Grass Pok mon love it here.

PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]

BULBASAUR [EXCITED]

What is it, Bulbasaur?

[HAPPY]

[chuckles] Is that for me?

[AFFIRMATIVE]

Ohh.. Well, thank you.

That was so nice.

- Reminds me of mine. - That's right.

- You've got a Bulbasaur, too. - Yeah.

But it's back in Pallet Town

at Professor Oak's laboratory for now.

- Huh? - Huh?

[EXCITED]

Wait, where're we going?

Wait for me.

You sure are strong for such a little thing.

PIKACHU [HAPPY]

VENUSAUR [CONTENT]

BULBASAUR [EXCITED]

[chuckles]

Umm, wow.

ASH This forest is huge..

No wonder we got so lost earlier.

PIKACHU [AGREEMENT]

MAY Hey, I can see a town over there.

BULBASAUR [CURIOUS]

- Hmm? - Oh, yeah, I know.

You've never been out of here, have you?

[AFFIRMATIVE]

Know what?

There's a gigantic world out there..

...places with all kinds of people and Pokémon.

BULBASAUR [SURPRISED]

And there are restaurants and strip malls

with stores filled with awesome clothes.

[CURIOUS]

You probably don't care

about the clothes part.

[giggles] Come on.

See over there?

That's what we call a town.

[AMAZED]

MAY 'My friends and I have traveled through'

'lots of towns just like that one.'

[HAPPY]

OLD MAN OBEE 'Years ago, this forest'

'was invaded time and time again by people'

'looking to capture as many Grass Pokémon'

'as they possibly could.'

These Pokémon became enraged

'and began to fight back against the invaders'

'as they sadly watched their forest'

'become a wasteland.'

In order to stop this travesty

a small group of people constructed this wall

proclaiming the land forbidden.

Our village's sole purpose in existing

is to make sure that law is obeyed.

Fortunately, this land has irregularities

in the earth's magnetic field, that make it nearly impossible

for compasses to work, so very few even try to enter.

Max, I guess that explains why your PokéNav

wasn't able to get a fix on our location.

Yeah, but all I care about now

is getting May and Ash out of there.

Agreed, I say we must save

those two at all costs.

VILLAGERS/BROCK/MAX Right.

POOCHYENA GROUP [AGREEMENT]

May, I think we should head back.

Brock and Max are really pretty worried about you.

Yeah, you're right, Ash.

Even though it is really beautiful

we're not supposed to be here anyway.

PIKACHU [AFFIRMATIVE]

- Ahh? - Now, what was that?

BULBASAUR [CURIOUS]

JESSIE 'Where're you running off to?'

TEAM ROCKET Three points.

What's wrong with all of those Pokémon?

BULBASAUR [CONFUSED]

They're scared and running

from something.

PIKACHU [SHOCK]

TEAM ROCKET 'Excuse us, coming through. Pardon.'

What in the world is that?

A huge robot?

JESSIE 'Prepare for trouble, we're having oodles of fun.'

JAMES And make it double as you gaze

upon our mechanized marvel, The Mean Old Lady Mark One.

JESSIE To protect the world from devastation.

JAMES To unite all peoples within our nation.

To denounce the evils of truth and love.

To extend our reach to the stars above.

- Jessie. - James-ey..

Team Rocket blasts off, at the speed of light.

Surrender now or prepare to fight, fight, fight.

Meowth, that's right.

[AGREEMENT]

- Team Rocket. - Team Rocket.

[ANGRY]

JESSIE It seems we've grabbed enough Grass Pokémon

to start our own forest.

JAMES But you can never have too much of a good thing, can you?

Get out here.

Pikachu, Thunderbolt attack.

[THUNDERBOLT MOVE]

[gasping]

[laughing]

How many times do I got to tell youse

we're electricity proof?

[AGREEMENT]

Now..

'...it's time to bowl for Bulbasaur.'

Quick, let's get out of here.

[EXERTION]

JAMES 'That ain't no way to treat a lady.'

POOCHYENA GROUP [EXERTION]

This rope'll help us find our way back to the village.

BROCK 'I guess bread crumbs would've been risky'

'with all these Pokémon.'

BULBASAUR [SCARED]

- Ohh. - What was that?

POOCHYENA GROUP [SURPRISED]

[PANICKED]

MEOWTH 'Gotcha by the bulb.'

VENUSAUR [DETERMINED]

JESSIE 'You're next, big guy.'

Now what?

What's happening to Mean Old Lady?

I don't know, old age?

It's our pile of Grass Pokémon. They're going nuts.

[AGREEMENT]

[EXERTION]

Good job.

Keep it up, guys.

MEOWTH 'James, stop this crazy thing.'

I have an idea, May.

You've got to get Bulbasaur to use Razor Leaf.

Okay, Ash.

Bulbasaur, use Razor Leaf.

[RAZOR LEAF MOVE]

GROUP [EXCITED]

Alright.

Great! You guys, get out of here, quick.

Hey, everyone.

Thanks for all your help.

JESSIE 'And it looks like she has a Beedrill in her bonnet.'

Pikachu, use Thunder.

[THUNDER MOVE]

I keep trying to tell ya.

[SOLAR BEAM MOVE]

What's that?

Venusaur's using Solar Beam.

[SOLAR BEAM MOVE]

[Team Rocket screaming]

We spent all our money on that dumb machine.

Gee, that sounds vaguely familiar.

Not as familiar as this.

TEAM ROCKET We're blasting off again.

WOBBUFFET [AGREEMENT]

OLD MAN OBEE My dear Grass Pokémon

please accept our sincere apologies

for disturbing you.

We hope you can forgive us.

And thanks for helping us get back out.

You guys are great.

[AGREEMENT]

And now my friends, it is time for us

to close this gate.

Of course.

We should go, May.

Yeah..

Uh.. Take care of yourself, Bulbasaur.
