03x40 - The Psychic Sidekicks!

[bunniefuu]

The sun is
shining brightly,

but our heroes are about
to be overshadowed

by something... spooky!

Hey..it's some kind
o' trainer's tip.

"Trainer's tip? !"

"Beware of
Ghost Pokémon...

use Psychic Pokémon
for your protection."

Must get scary
around here

with all those
Ghost Pokémon.

It doesn't look
too scary t' me!

Y' know guys..I kind o' wish we
did have a Psychic Pokémon!

Yeah so do I, but
none of us has one!

Any ideas?

Well..

YEAH.... PSYDUCK!

Huh?

Yeah...maybe
Psyduck can help!

Psyduck's a Water Type but
it can use Psychic attacks!

That's right..let's
give it a try!

We're countin'
on y' Psyduck!

If we see any Ghost
Pokémon you're gonna use

Confusion t'
send 'em away OK! ?

Let's hope ..we
don't see any.

"The Psychic Sidekicks"

-Huh?
-Huh?

Quick Psyduck
it's a ghost type!

Use Confusion!

HEY!

This doesn't look like
any Gastly or Haunter

I've ever seen before..maybe
it's not a ghost type!

Maybe you're right..

but it's still pretty
scary lookin'.

Serves y' right!

My Girafarig's definitely
not a ghost type!

Another ghost!

Chill out!

Girafarig, the
Long Neck Pokémon.

Girafarig has a second
head on its tail

that bites those who
approach it carelessly.

But it's friendly too..
isn't it just beautiful? !

I'm Ash an' I'm
sorry I mistook y'

for a Ghost Pokémon Girafarig!

My name's Cherry,
Girafarig's trainer...

it's nice t' meet you!

My name's Brock.

An' I'm Misty .
Nice t' meet y'!

Don't any of you have a
Psychic Pokémon with y'? !

It's dangerous in these
woods without one!

I don't and
neither does Brock!

Misty has a Psyduck but
I'm not sure if it counts.

So tell us Cherry...why'd
y' pick a Girafarig

t' train 'cause it
looks so diff'rent? !

Yeah.. that's
partly the reason.

It's an old tradition
for everybody

t' have a Psychic
Pokémon as a partner

in the place where
I come from.

Where's that? !

Blenn Town.

It's just up the road.

Blenn

...yeah here it is..

"Blenn Town is
well-known because

nearly every one of
its inhabitants

has a Psychic Pokémon!"

How come they all
have Psychic Pokémon? !

We've had Ghost Pokémon
living in the woods

around here for
hundreds of years..

so we raise Psychic Pokémon t'
keep 'em from causing trouble.

You know how Ghost
types can be!

Y-e-a-h!

Int'resting.

Very...turn the name
"Girafarig" around.

It's spelled the same
backwards as forwards!

Not that..what she said
about Psychic types!

I wasn't calling for
you..I said "Psychic"

not "Psychotic!"

This is ..becoming
a problem.

C'mon let's go!

That girl's home town
sounds like it's

chock full of Psychic Pokémon!

So it don't take a mindreader t'
know where we're headin'!

Where there's a
profusion of Confusion!

An' Teleport
of every sort!

Just thinking about
catching all those

Psychic Pokémon is
making me drowsy!

But them Psychic
Pokémon're pretty tricky . .

how're we gonna beat 'em!

With my secret weapon!

You're gonna put
on more makeup? !

That's my dream too!

I wanna become a
Pokémon Master

...an' be the first trainer

from my town t' win the
Johto League championship!

Wow!

Any...badges?

No not yet.

I wanna train as
much as I can

before I leave home an'
start my Pokémon Journey.

Looks like y' got another
rival on your hands!

No problem we're always lookin'
for new challenges..

aren't we Pikachu? !

Pikachu and I won't
let anything stop us

on our road t' victory!

Whaddya say how 'bout
some jelly sandwiches!

They look great Thanks
a lot for makin' 'em!

Eat up Pikachu!

You too Cherry!

Thanks. These look great!

C'mon Girafarig..
I made plenty!

That's great!

You an' Pikachu seem like
you know each other very well.

Sure do!

Know what some people say?

They say that when a
trainer and a Psychic Pokémon

are really close they
can communicate their

thoughts and feelings
psychically!

Like ESP! ?

I think I read about
that somewhere.

If Girafarig an'
I could do that ,

I could be a Psychic
Pokémon Master!

I never heard o'
one o' those before.

Ash, let's have a battle!

Now? !

If I'm gonna be a Psychic
Pokémon Master..

I need practice!

OK Cherry.. let's do it!

We'll each use one
Pokémon.. agreed?

Fine!

I choose Girafarig!

An' I choose Pikachu!

Start it off with a
Quick Attack Pikachu!

Girafarig!

Y' gave me a scare!

OK NOW USE FUTURE SIGHT!

What's that? !

Nothing.

What's Future Sight?

I'm not exactly sure...I've
heard about it,

but I've never
actually seen it.

Just you wait...you won't
know what Future Sight

is until it's too late!

Be careful Ash!

I can't be careful
if I don't know

what I'm bein' careful of.

Pikachu Thunderbolt now!

Just hang in there!

Hold 'em off a
little bit longer

until Future Sight kicks in!
Try a Stomp Attack!

Pikachu Agility!

That was quick!

Great job Pikachu..

now let's end it with
a Thunderbolt!

What's that?

It's time.. get ready
for Future Sight!

PIKACHU!

Where'd.. that come from? !

Misty I have a
funny feeling that

that attack didn't come
from out of nowhere!

Maybe that.. maybe
that was Future Sight!

That's exactly what it
was..pretty cool huh? !

Future Sight's an
attack in the future...

sort o' like a
time-delayed Psychic attack!

That was.. awesome!

Now let's win
this.. use Psybeam!

Pikachu use your
Thunderbolt Attack!

Girafarig, Confusion!

Pikachu, use your Thunder!

This can't be!

Oh no!

I think this thing's over.

Girafarig!

You're too strong..we
better stop.

That was an amazing
battle Cherry.

An' Future Sight's
an amazing attack!

You're right...

but I'm not good enough t' be
a Psychic Pokémon Master.

I just can't seem t'
communicate

with Girafarig psychically!

What're you talkin' about?

You're a great trainer
an' you're gonna win

a ton o' badges!

Thanks Pikachu..
you're nice.

You an' Ash seem like
an unbeatable team!

Well..I guess we do win
our share o' matches!

Sometimes Ash is
so lucky he wins

more than his
share o' matches!

Hey...I have an idea...

why don't y' come
with me an' see

all the Psychic Pokémon! ?

Wow..there're Psychic
Pokémon everywhere y' look!

That's right!

It's great.

Thanks t' them those Pokémon
stay way out o' town!

Yeah...

An Abra!

Abra you hold
it right there,

young man don't let that
little devil get away!

It just disappeared!

Hi there Mrs. Bellows.

How're you! ?

Oh hello Cherry did
y' just get back?

Mm-hmm.

It looks like your Abra's
having fun teleporting!

It never gets tired of pulling
its psychic pranks on me!

But that's what makes
your Abra so cute!

Oh Yes!

Nice hair-do!

Get off that man's head!

AAGGHH! Come back here!

Y' really have t'
stay on your toes

t' be an Abra trainer.

WE'VE GOT BIG TROUBLE!

What's the matter! ?

Please...tell us
what happened! ?

It's gigantic!

What's gigantic? !

A Ghost Pokémon that's
invulnerable to Psychic attacks!

Mr. Mime and I were
fishing down

at the lake when we saw it...

I never dreamed
a Gengar

could grow t' be that size!

Mr. Mime use Psywave!

M-Mister.... Mime!

MISTER MIME!

Mr. Mime.

Something just
doesn't add up...

how could a Gengar
get t' be that big?

C'mon Brock, we
better check it out!

Still down there clown!

Your mirror idea
worked brilliantly!

It's a reflection
of my genius!

A toast to our
mechanical ghost!

STOP THE PARTY!

We ain't got no reason
t' celebrate yet!

What're you talking
about Meowth? !

That place is full o'
Psychic Pokémon

and we shouldn't party
'til we've captured

every last one of 'em!

Right-o..let's go!

Come on!

We gotta catch 'em all...

Cherry how d' we
get t this Gengar?

C'mon, the
lake's this way!

What's wrong...

What's the
matter Girafarig? !

There you are
my Abra sweetie!

Come to Mama!

It's a Gengar!

Abra..shoo it away with
your Psychic Attack!

Abra at o'clock!

Who cares what time it
is, let's capture it!

Here comes a
Psychic Attack!

Wait till it enters
Gengar's eye.

Abra no!

What'd I tell
you..worked like a charm!

This is easy!

Abra's Psychic Attack got
reflected right back at it!

Grab it while it's groggy!

Preparing to launch
Lick attack...

Fire!

Abra!

Abra!

Team Rocket is bouncing
back to victory!

An' we'll lick ev'ry
last one of 'em!

We're unstoppable!

What's the matter.. is
something bad coming? !

That's it..that's the
Gengar that ate my Mr. Mime!

Take your Girafarig
an' get outta town!

What's happening? !

It's a giant Gengar and
Psychic Attacks can't stop it!

It swallowed my
Abra in one gulp!

We don't have a chance
of defending ourselves!

Oh my poor Abra!

Well there's the
twerp and his Pikachu!

Then let's catch
Pikachu too!

Hurry!

Mrs. Bellows tell
everybody t' take their

Pokémon inside an' hide!

Cherry.. what're
you going t' do? !

My Girafarig should be
able t' beat a Gengar

no matter how gigantic it is!

Use your Psybeam!

It reflected it!

How could it do that? !

Prepare for trouble!

And make it double!

To protect the world
from devastation.

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!

Team Rocket, blast off
at the speed of light!

Surrender now or prepare
to fight fight fight!

Meowth..that's right!

That's not a Gengar,
that's Team Rocket!

So what, this is better
than a real Gengar

'cause ours has mirror eyes!

What can that do? !

Uhh!

Mirrors reflect Psychic
Attacks back at a Pokémon

and stun it..

then we lick
it right up!

We're gettin' pretty
clever ain't we!

I have t' admit, they are!

Hey whose side're
you on? !

Our mirror ploy also has the
contributing secondary effect

of damaging a Psychic
Pokémon's confidence

against Ghost
Pokémon consequently

eroding its trainers'
faith and trust

in the Pokémon's natural
abilities and talents!

I had no idea you had
such an analytical mind!

How'd you think o' that?

I just made it up
as I went along!

Give back those Pokémon!

You can't make us!

These Psychic Pokémon will
help us control all humans

and Pokémon and help
us dominate the world!

Dominate the world? !

I thought we were
going to use them

entertain on cruise ships!

We have t' do
something t' stop 'em.

They're both glowing!

You may as well hand
over the Girafarig!

We're getting it anyway!

Girafarig
Confusion Attack!

Girafarig!

Be as strong
as you can be!

We have t' save
the other Pokémon!

Quick Girafarig
use your Psybeam!

Girafarig!

-Cherry no!
-Ash wait!

Look out!

That was pretty
risky of you!

You'd do the same!

Cherry! ?

I guess I trained
Girafarig pretty well...

that Psybeam was strong!

I'm glad you're
OK Girafarig!

Just leave Team
Rocket t' me!

Steady!

Y' better take it easy!

Girafarig, use
Future Sight!

It's just standing
there staring!

She called it Future
Sight maybe it's seein'

how successful our
future's gonna be!

I see it too...it's
simply wonderful!

Go get 'em Pikachu!

How could I see...

Girafarig, was
that your vision? !

Ash..Team Rocket is
gonna use Lick Attack!

-Huh? !
-There's not much time!

Pikachu!

Here goes!

Jump!

Y' missed!

The twerp knew
we were coming!

Don't worry we'll
lick Pikachu!

Impossible!

Girafarig's..Confusion!

Pikachu's really
flyin' high!

Get it, get it, GET IT!

It won't stretch
any further!

Now Pikachu...

Thunder Attack!

Abra!

Mr. Mime!

Quick we might
have a chance

if we use our best Pokémon!

OK!

It's here!

A Future Sight bull's eye!

That was Future Sight! ?

Why didn't I
see it coming? !

Now we're going.

Team Rocket's
blasting off again!

That's was great Cherry!

We did it Girafarig, we
connected psychically!

Great! Congratulations!

It must mean we're
getting closer than ever!

Next time we see Cherry

might be at the Johto
League championship!

Watch out Ash...she's
gonna be tough.

Cherry's really strong
but I'm not worried..

we'll all be ready..
won't we Pikachu? !

We're gonna be a great
team just like they are!

And so what lies ahead
for our heroes

on their journey to Johto?

Who knows! ?....

I don't have Future Sight!
