05x12 - A Parent Trapped!

[bunniefuu]

male narrator:
Last time, hoping to locate

a mysterious Pokémon,

our heroes traveled
to Ogi Isle,

where they were
reunited with Ritchie,

who was searching as well.

Together they uncovered
the incredible secret:

a newborn Lugia
and its parent.

But trouble arose when
Professor Nanba and Team Rocket

appeared with their sights
set on stealing the young Lugia,

which they quickly accomplished
as a net whisked Silver away.

Will Butch and Cassidy get
away with Lugia-napping

right before Ash's eyes?

- [singing]
Pokémon!

- No time to question
my moves

I stick to the path
that I choose

Me and my friends
are gonna do it right

You'll never see us
run away from a fight

To be a master
is my dream

All I've got to do
is believe

- I believe

- I've got a chance
to win

I'm on my way
to victory

- Pokémon!
- I can be a champion

If I just believe

I'm on a master quest

- Master quest

- I want the whole world
to see

- I believe

- I'm gonna be
the very best

'Cause all I've got to do
is believe in me

- Pokémon!

- [wailing]

- [laughs]

- Go ahead and cry all you like.
It's soundproof.

I'm afraid that no one is able
to hear you, my friend.

- Professor Nanba?
- Don't sneak up behind me.

What is it you want?

- Sorry, our mistake completely.
Never happen again.

- Professor Nanba,
this Pokémon is so...

- Yes, yes,
I know it's young.

But it is the legendary Pokémon,
Lugia.

And our young friend
will assist us.

- It wants to find
its parent.

- And we want
to find it too.

- It's so simple.

Baby finds parent,
then we have them both.

[laughs]

- [sobbing]

Silver. Silver.

- [whimpers]

- Pika.
- Pika.

- Hey, what's the matter?

Why is everyone so sad?

- Luka, it's Silver.

Team Rocket took Silver.

- What? How could that happen?
How did they get it?

- With a metal net.

- Yeah, and we're trying to
figure out ways to get it back.

- What about
the parent Lugia?

- [roars]

- Oh.
- Lugia.

- I'm sorry, Lugia.

Silver is...Silver is...

- [cries]

- It was Team Rocket.

- They stole Silver away.

- Pika, Pika.

- Pikachu.

- [roars]

- Silver's just not here
anymore, Lugia.

But we wanna help you
find it.

- Togepi.

- [shrieks]

- Uh, Lugia?

- Lugia's really upset,

but it's not hard
to understand why.

- What? Oh, no.

- [roars]

- Oh, no.
- What's happening?

- [thunder]

- I think we'd better
get out of this storm

before it gets any worse.

- Yeah, let's go.

- Lugia, I'm so sorry.
I'm sorry.

- Come on, Oliver,
we've got to get going now.

- [roars]

- I will not be outdone by that
corrupting, conniving Cassidy.

I'm going to locate and lasso
that baby Lugia

if the last thing
I ever do.

- Perhaps you're forgetting
that Cassidy is on our side,

and then we'd be stealing
from ourselves.

- Have you lost your mind?

If Cassidy goes to the boss
she'll get the credit.

- Then win we must,

because winning ain't
the best thing.

It's the only thing.

- Wobbuffet!

- Get back in your ball.

[all scream]

Stop rocking the boat!

Ah! Big Lugia.

A big and mad Lugia!

Looks like Team Rocket's
blasting off again!

- Wobbu!

- [roars]

- [laughs]

- Well, isn't that just
too bad.

I'd say that we have a very
angry parent on our hands.

- Sir, the current wind strength
is at points.

The storm power
is at points.

Lugia has an attack power
of , points.

And all of these figures
appear to be rising.

- Yes, you're quite correct.

We are now witnessing the power
of this Pokémon's rage.

And the more enraged,

the more powerful
it will become.

In fact, there's no limit
to this power.

- [laughs]

- If we don't find a way
to calm Lugia down soon,

things could get
much worse.

- But, Luka, how can we
possibly do that?

- Hmm.

- Pika.
- Togepi.

- Silver, Silver.

[sniffling]

I'm sorry, Lugia.

I'm so sorry.

- Guys, I'll be right back.

- Huh?
- Where are you going, Ash?

- I have to help Lugia somehow.
- Huh?

- You can't go out there.
- Yeah.

You don't stand a chance with
that storm raging like it is.

- I can't just sit around
and do nothing.

- Okay, Ash. I'll go too.

- If you're going,

I guess I'll just have
to go along with you too.

I know I'm the only one of us
who could steer a boat

in this bad weather.

- Really, Luka?
- Gee, that'd be a big help.

- Pika.

- Don't worry about us.
We'll be okay.

- Please be careful.

- There's just gotta be some way
to let Lugia know

we won't let anything
happen to Silver.

- Pika.

- [roars]

Lugia, please don't
be so angry.

- Please stop
all of these storms.

- Pika, Pika!
- Pikachu!

- I promise we're gonna
get Silver back for you,

but you just
have to calm down.

- Pikachu!

- [roars]

- Please, Lugia.
Please trust us one more time.

[all scream]

- We will. I promise.

I give you my word
we will save Silver.

- Please stop,

or we won't be able
to help you.

Won't you please stop?

- Pikachu!

- We're gonna save Silver.

- It's stopped. Huh?

- Lugia.

- I guess we finally
convinced it to trust us.

- That was close.
- Yeah.

- Thanks, Lugia.

And you'll see.
We won't let you down.

- [chirps]

- Hey, Lanturn. Did you see
Team Rocket anywhere?

That's okay.

Why don't you go try
another island this time?

- Hey, Noctowl,
did you see anything?

- Pika!

- [chirps]

- Nothing, huh?

- Even Crobat's supersonic

can't detect anything.

- With all of us looking
I know we'll find something.

Silver's just gotta be around
here somewhere.

- By now Team Rocket could've
taken Silver almost anywhere.

- No way.
Silver's still around here.

I'm sure of it.

- How do you know?

- Because Team Rocket
must've seen the parent Lugia.

And if they did,
I'm sure they'll be wanting

to catch it too.

So you see,
I'm thinking they probably

won't take Silver
anywhere far away

until they've gotten a hold
of them both.

- That makes sense to me.

- But I don't think
they're keeping Silver

out on dry land either.

- How'd you figure
that one out?

- It's strange.

Lugia's been calling out
for Silver over and over again,

but we still haven't heard
Silver answer back even once.

- Yeah, you're right.

- It can only mean
one thing.

Team Rocket must
be keeping Silver

in some sort
of underwater base.

- Yes, that's it.
Silver wouldn't hear a thing.

- Underwater, huh?

- All right, then it's time
for my Water Pokémon

to do their thing.

Corsola. Goldeen.
Staryu. Poliwhirl.

I choose you.

- Corsola.

- Poliwhirl.

- Goldeen, Goldeen.

- Ha!

- Totodile, I choose you.

- Goldeen.

- Poli.

- Ha!

- Corsola, Corsola,
Corsola, Corsola.

- What is it, Lanturn?

- [shouting]

- What do you think?
Maybe Lanturn found something.

Maybe it found Silver.
- Maybe.

- Now hear this.

We're bagging that Lugia brat,

and I don't want to hear
another word.

- I haven't said any words.

- That was five.

- It's Team Rocket.

- Let's follow them.

- Yeah.

- Shellder!

- What's that?

- Pika.

- Who's that Pokémon?

It's Dragonite.

- Professor Nanba.

- Why are you two
constantly interrupting?

- Uh, you called us here, sir.

- Yeah, whatever.

I would now like us
to turn our attention

to Operation
Great Big Lugia.

- Right.
- Right.

- We shall concentrate on
Capture Plan Letter D, level .

- Initiate Lugia
Capture Plan D.

Great Big Lugia
Capture Plan D.

Settings to level .
I repeat: Settings to level .

- Oh, dear.

I just wish
we didn't have to put

these horrendous things
on again.

- Zip it, James.

At least one of us looks good
in anything we wear.

- Gee, thanks for noticing,
Jessie.

Ah! Trapped like a Rattata.

- What?
- What?

- It's a...
- Flood!

- The tide's a-rising.

- You know Meowths
don't like getting wet.

- May I have your attention,
please?

The partition
is now closed.

All tanks are filled.
- We're ready.

- All righty then.
Now raise the undersea base.

- Please pull the plug.

[all shouting]

- Huh?

- What is that thing?

- Togepi.

- Now Capture Plan D.

Ready? Initiate.
- Yes.

- [cries]

- This must be their base.
- Let's find a way to get in.

- [cries]

- There's Silver.
- Pika?

- What's that?

- Silver's crying out
to be saved by its parent.

- Silver!

- Ash, it's a trap.

- Huh?
- The cage.

They're using Silver as bait
to catch Lugia.

- We have to do something.

- Pika, Pika!

- Ready, Ritchie?

- I'm ready when you are, Ash.

- You guys, hurry.
Climb on.

- [laughs]

Lugia.

Your baby is crying.

Don't you want to come
and save the poor thing?

- I wanna go too.
- Not this time.

It'll be better if you and I
wait for them here in the boat.

- Don't worry,
we'll get Silver back.

- Be careful,
you guys.

- I just gotta get to Silver
before Lugia does.

- [cries]

- [roaring]

- [chirps]

- Lugia, you have to stay away.
It's a trap.

- They're trying
to catch you.

- Yeah, stay away, Lugia.
Watch out.

- Pika!
- Hey, what?

- It's time to prepare
for trouble.

- We're a bit pressed for time,
so let's skip the rest.

- But make no mistake,
hands down we're the best.

- Houndour,
I choose you.

- Hitmontop,
get in there.

- [growls]

- Hitmontop.

[all gasp]

- You may have won
that last battle,

but we won't let you
win the w*r.

- Just check out
these pumped-up Pokémon.

- [growls]

- Montop.

- Better be careful, Ash.

There's something not right
about them.

- [laughs]

Behold my greatest
discovery.

This brilliant invention
of mine

can actually create
enraged Pokémon,

and I like to call my creation
Nanba's Nasty Pokémon Provoker.

But I don't know,
you might just want to call it

your worst nightmare.

Rage, rage,
bring out your rage.

- Watch out, Lugia.

- They want you too.

Stay away
from Silver's cage.

- Pikachu, we've gotta stop
Lugia.

Use Thunderbolt.
- Pika!

- Sparky, go and use
your Thunderbolt too.

- Pika.

- Pikachu!
- Pikachu!

- [roars]

- Not so fast.
Save your lightning.

Flamethrower now.

- Pika. Pika!

- [gasps]
- What a strong Flamethrower.

- Somehow they've intensified
the attacks.

- Go away, Lugia!
Please go away!

- We have to do something quick
or they'll get Lugia too.

- Cyndaquil, I choose you.

- Cyndaquil.

- Go, Zippo.

- Charmeleon.

- Hey, it's a Charmeleon.
- You're right.

Hey, it looks like
Zippo evolved.

- Cyndaquil, use Flamethrower
to stop Lugia.

- Zippo, you use
Flamethrower too.

- Ah! Hitmontop,
use Rolling Kick.

- Hitmontop-top-top-top-top.

- Ah! Cyndaquil, return.

- It's time for my Water Pokémon
to get in there.

Poliwhirl, let's go.

- Poliwhirl.

- Poliwhirl,
Water g*n Attack now.

- Poliwhirl.

- Houndour,
another Flamethrower.

- Ah, this is perfect.

While those twerps
try to blow each other up,

you just keep blowing
on that balloon.

- This thing needs more air
than an Aerodactyl.

And besides, why do we need
a fake Lugia?

- It's simple.

We need a surrogate parent
for that baby Lugia.

- That makes no sense.

What's a blow-up toy gots to do
with us stealing that baby?

- Please listen up.

We're going to simply switch out
our big air-filled Lugia

for the real one.

- Yes, but how?

- Let me do the thinking
and you doing the blowing!

Once this puffed-up parent
is inflated

I'll give you the details.

- Oh, goodie.
- Can't wait.

- Now, Houndour, Hitmontop,
I want to see even more anger.

- Hitmontop.

- [growls]

- Go, Hitmontop.
Enraged Triple Kick now.

- Hitmontop.

Top-top.

- Ah!
Poliwhirl, return.

- Incredible.

I've never seen a Triple Kick
with so much power.

- Go, Houndour.
Enraged Flamethrower.

- Zippo, return.

I don't understand what's going
on with their Pokémon, Ash.

I just can't believe how much
power all of them have.

- [cries]

- Stay away, Lugia.

- You gotta listen to us.

Pikachu, help me.

- Sparky, help Pikachu
keep Lugia away.

- [roars]

[all scream]

- Hmm, hmm, hmm.

Now that they're gone,

there's no one
to stop Lugia, right?

Come now and get your baby,
Lugia.

- Lugia, no.

- [chirping]

- [screams]

- [laughs]

At last, Lugia is mine.

The power of extreme anger
and rage has won.

- Oh, no.
It looks like we're too late.

- We did it.

- And not one blow too soon.

- This looks exactly
like the parent.

Let's go ahead and move forward
with the plan.

- Let's go.
- Let's go.

- Uh...

- I don't remember
that us flying out of control

was part of the plan.

- Yeah, it always comes
right before the part

where we all scream.

all: Looks like Team Rocket's
blasting off again!

- [roars]

- Lugia. Silver. No.

- You know, they're messing up
the landscape.

- They won't be messing up
anything else,

that's for sure.

- [wailing]

- Now what?

They got Silver,
and now Lugia too.

- We just have to think
of something quick.

- I'm on a master quest

- Pokémon

- I'm on a master quest

- Pokémon

- Huh?

What's going on here?

And what am I doing
inside of this cage?

narrator: Not only
has Silver been kidnapped,

but now the parent Lugia
has been captured as well.

To make matters worse,
Ash has awakened to find himself

mysteriously caged alongside
his friends.

Will they be able to escape
and also figure out some way

to free the two Lugia?

The exciting conclusion,
next time.

- No time to question
my moves

I stick to the path
that I choose

Me and my friends
are gonna do it right

To be a master
is my dream

All I've got to do
is believe

- I believe

- I'm on a master quest

- Master quest

- I want the whole world
to see

- I believe

- I'm gonna be
the very best

'Cause all I've got to do
is believe in me

- Pokémon!
