"SINGING:" "Gotta catch 'em all" "Gotta catch 'em all" "Pokémon!" "NARRATOR:" "In our last episode, Ash, Misty, and Brock... were on their way to retrieve a mysterious pokébaII... for Professor Oak when they were forced to take the controls... of a ramshackle airship." "With the help of their Pokémon... our heroes were able to make an emergency landing!" "But now what new challenges await them on valencia island?" "ASH:" "It sure is hot." "MISTY:" "What are you talking about, Ash?" "The weather's perfect." "Pikachu." "Maybe we should take a little swim." "We can have fun after we get that pokébaII." "Uh..." "OK." "So, where is Professor Ivy's laboratory anyway?" "PIKACHU:" "Pi...pi?" "ALL:" "Don't you know where it is?" "MISTY:" "I guess we'II just have to find it." "Pi...pika pi!" "ALL:" "Huh?" "ASH:" "Looks like a Pokémon center." "MISTY:" "Anybody here?" "BROCK:" "I wonder if there are Nurse Joys in the islands." "welcome to the Pokémon center." "Some things never change." "Aah!" "It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance." "Are you related to any of the other Nurse Joys?" "JOY:" "I'm the second cousin of the sister-in-Iaw... of the Joy in Saffron City." "Have you ever been to Saffron City?" "BROCK:" "Yes." "It's beautiful like you are." "MISTY:" "Looks like Ash isn't the only one... who needs to cool down." "could you tell us how to get to Professor Ivy's laboratory?" "Oh, it's very easy." "You go straight out of the Pokémon center... make the first left... and it's the big white building at the end of Bayview road." "ASH:" "Professor Ivy!" "hello!" "Is anybody home?" "ASH:" "The place looks empty." "Aah!" "Hi." "What are you doing here?" "Who are you?" "BROCK:" "hello there." "We came here to see Professor Ivy." "ASH:" "Yeah." "Professor Oak from pallet Town... sent us to pick up something." "If you want the Professor... she's in the bay..." "...working with the Pokémon." "We'II take you to her right now!" "Pika, pika." "ALL:" "Hmm..." "Oh!" "A Gyarados!" "Whoa!" "Very good, Gyarados." "I think you're all looking better and stronger... every single day!" "Pika!" "You see that?" "I wish I couId train my Charizard..." "like she trained her Gyarados." "BROCK:" "Ah!" "I wish she'd train me!" "Professor!" "Three friends of Professor Oak are here to...see you!" "Huh?" "Oh..." "ALL:" "Huh?" "Oh!" "pleased to meet you." "I'm Professor Ivy." "IVY:" "well, there's the pokébaII." "ASH:" "Wow!" "Sure is different." "I never saw one like that before." "Pikachu." "Why is it all gold and silver?" "IVY:" "We haven't been able to discover the reason for that... or very much else about the pokébaII, I'm afraid." "ASH:" "Oh." "Professor Ivy... it looks like there's some kind of writing on it." "IVY:" "If you look closely, you can see the letters G-S." "I see it." "IVY:" "So we decided to call it a GS ball." "A GS ball." "BROCK:" "We heard you can't transport it." "IVY:" "True." "would you demonstrate?" "ALL:" "Oh..." "naturally, we've tried to open it." "ALL:" "Uh-huh!" "IVY:" "We've tried buzz saws, hammers... crowbars, hacksaws, power drills, and lasers!" "We've tried everything." "This pokébaII has us stumped." "ALL:" "Uh-huh!" "Hmm." "Pika, pika." "I wish I couId have uncovered its secrets myself... but if anyone can solve its mysteries... your friend Professor Oak can." "Here it is, Ash." "Make sure you get it to him safely." "Right!" "Magikarp, magikarp." "[telephone rings]" "[Ring]" "hello." "Professor Oak speaking." "hello!" "Remember me?" "Oh, Ash!" "Are you there already?" "Yep." "Professor Ivy just gave me something for you." "See it?" "Is that it?" "ASH:" "It's the GS ball." "PROFESSOR:" "A GS ball?" "IVY:" "I chose the name, Professor." "Ah!" "Professor Ivy!" "It's good to talk to you, Professor Oak." "well, I recently read your preliminary report... in "Pokémon Researchers' monthly..."" "on Pokémon adaptive variation... as a function of regional distribution... and I found it quite persuasive." "Oh, thank you." "And I think your article... on challenges facing anthro- Pokémon global cohabitation... was absolutely fascinating!" "Is this gonna take much longer?" "Sorry." "I get carried away sometimes." "I certainly hope you can solve the mystery... of this pokébaII, Professor." "well, I'II see what I can do." "We'II see you soon, Professor Oak!" "PROFESSOR:" "AII right, Ash!" "Take care, and thank you." "Hmm." "How terribly exciting!" "Mmm..." "Magikarp, magikarp." "[Gasping]" "MEOWTH:" "It's ruined!" "A total wreck!" "A hunk-a burned out junk!" "I guess we should have bought the flight insurance." "We'II never get off this island!" "And the boss is going to hate us again!" "Quit bIubbering, and let's fix this thing!" "But, Jessie, I don't know the first thing about work." "JESSIE:" "Are you saying you won't work?" "No, no, no!" "Have you forgotten that the twerp and his friends... are supposed to make a round trip?" "Ahh!" "That means we get a second shot to grab Pikachu!" "What are we waiting for?" "Let's get to work and rebuild the blimp!" "That's the spirit!" "Before long, we'II have our fly trap ready for Pikachu!" "Charge!" "[Laughing]" "BROCK:" "So this is all part of your laboratory?" "IVY:" "Yes." "We need all this space for all the Pokémon." "We breed and study so many of them." "BROCK:" "Oh." "Hmm." "Oh!" "Just look at all these gigantic flowers!" "[Sniffs] Ah!" "ViIepIume!" "BROCK:" "It's a ViIepIume!" "ASH:" "Yeah, but it looks a little different... from the ViIepIume in my Pokédex." "Pika, Pikachu!" "plume!" "ViIepIume!" "BOTH:" "It's time for dinner!" "BROCK:" "Hey, I guess you make the food yourself." "IVY:" "Yes." "We've created recipes for each type of Pokémon." "Parasdi, parasdi." "Raticate!" "Hey, look!" "AII these Pokémon look a little bit different than usual." "Yeah, you're right!" "BROCK:" "Why is that, Professor?" "IVY:" "If you stop and think about it... it's not surprising, really." "BROCK:" "It isn't?" "This island's tropical climate... is very different from the one where you live." "naturally, the different environment... creates differences in the Pokémon... that we've raised here." "I'm now collecting data and studying how environment... causes variation in all our Pokémon." "You mean you bred and raised all the Pokémon on this island?" "Yes." "I've dedicated myself to them... and I couldn't be happier." "Ha ha ha!" "Professor, I'd love to see... all the different kinds of water Pokémon you have here." "I wonder if there's a tropical isIand-type Pikachu!" "Pikachu, that's not yours!" "Togepi, put that back!" "[giggles] There's plenty." "Professor Ivy, look!" "Free...free..." "IVY:" "We've got to think of something." "BROCK:" "What's the matter?" "IVY:" "That little Butterfree hasn't eaten a thing in days." "The different nutrients haven't worked?" "GIRL:" "No, and we've tried five combinations!" "IVY:" "Hmm..." "The ingredients include all the essential nutrients." "BROCK:" "Huh?" "IVY:" "I just don't understand it." "[Sniffing]" "[Gasp]" "[Chewing noisily]" "BROCK:" "I've got it!" "I'II be right back!" "GIRL:" "What are you doing?" "BROCK:" "I found when a Pokémon decides to eat something... the most important thing isn't how nutritious the food is." "They care about the taste." "Pokémon like food that tastes good to them." "well, flavor is a factor." "But how can you determine what flavors each Pokémon likes?" "only from experience!" "OK, ready?" "Let's see what happens." "[Gasp] Wow!" "That's simply amazing!" "I noticed that Butterfree likes sweet things... so if you just add mashed-up berries to their food... they'II eat it up every time!" "BOTH:" "Oh!" "IVY:" "I'm embarrassed to call myself a Pokémon researcher... when you're the one who seems to know... a Iot more about Pokémon feeding habits." "Brock knows tons of stuff about Pokémon, Professor." "He's gonna be the world's greatest breeder!" "Ah, a breeder." "GIRLS:" "will you teach us all about the different flavors... the Pokémon like in their food?" "please, Brock, will you, please?" "Hey, come on, you guys." "We have to decide who gets stuck cooking dinner tonight." "Huh?" "Cooking?" "Who's that Pokémon?" "MISTY:" "Nice place." "We just got so wrapped up in our Pokémon research... that we stopped cleaning and started calling it..." "ALL:" "Our little dump!" "Dumps are a Iot cleaner!" "[Moaning]" "Hey, Brock" "floors to be swept!" "clothes to be washed!" "Cooking, mopping, polishing, cleaning!" "This is just like home!" "Leave it to Super Brock!" "[Crazed grunting]" "Pah!" "Pah!" "Pah!" "Hi, hi, hi!" "Brock is a great cleaner..." "PoIisher..." "Vacuumer..." "Duster..." "He's a good cook." "And he works for free." "Pika pika!" "Let's thank Brock!" "ALL:" "Later!" "Let's eat!" "[Chomping]" "The Pokémon eat quieter than they do." "Mmm, just like my family." "ALL:" "ViIepIume." "ViIepIume." "Are you getting this?" "Yes." "It's all on tape." "Professor." "Brock!" "I thought you'd be asleep by now." "I thought you might like a midnight snack." "How thoughtful!" "What are you doing here?" "IVY:" "We're beginning a new study of the ViIepIume." "They're nocturnal Pokémon... and at night they all come out to spray their pollen... to prevent other Pokémon from entering their territory." "GIRL:" "Oh, no!" "Here comes a Raticate!" "Look out!" "[Coughing]" "Professor!" "Professor, are you OK?" "Save the Raticate." "[Gasping]" "Contact the Pokémon center immediately!" "Yes, ma'am !" "I'm glad they came and woke us up." "Good thing we didn't sleep through this." "Professor Ivy, you should know how dangerous it is... to jump out in front of ViIepIume... when they're spraying their pollen like that." "How is the Raticate?" "Because you got it away from the pollen so fast... it'II be just fine." "Oh, good." "We were so worried about you!" "IVY:" "I didn't mean to scare you girls." "GIRL:" "please, don't do something like that again!" "IVY:" "Oh, I won't." "GIRL:" "That's what you said the Iast time." "IVY:" "I'II try to mean it this time." "[AII laughing]" "well, we gotta go, Professor." "We have to get the GS ball to Professor Oak." "well, come and visit any time!" "MISTY:" "Hey, where's Brock?" "ASH:" "I haven't seen him, Misty." "ASH:" "Onix?" "BROCK:" "Let's move it, guys!" "MISTY:" "Hey, Brock!" "ASH:" "What's he doing?" "Pikachu." "It seems..." "It seems Brock has decided to stay with us." "BOTH:" "Huh?" "!" "OK!" "That roof shouIdn't leak any more now." "That's wonderful, Brock!" "He's great!" "It's like we were adrift at sea until Brock came along." "IVY:" "That's true." "ASH:" "Hey, Brock!" "Are you really staying here?" "This ship needs a captain." "Pika?" "If I stay here, I'II get to Iearn... more and more about Pokémon every day." "And I think these guys may need me... a Iot more than you guys do." "well, then, I guess... this is good-bye." "Friends to the end, right, Ash?" "Right." "Pikachu!" "Pika, pika!" "Bye, Brock!" "Thank you, guys!" "And just make sure you don't forget me, will you?" "VuI!" "Geodude." "ASH:" "We won't!" "MISTY:" "Bye, Brock!" "ALL:" "Bye!" "BROCK:" "See ya!" "MISTY:" "It'II be really weird not having Brock around." "ASH:" "Yeah, I know." "I wish he was coming back with us." "MISTY:" "Now that you mention it, how do we get back?" "No problem." "I have our bIimp tickets right here!" "MISTY:" "But we can't go back on that blimp." "ASH:" "Yeah." "The food was bad and they didn't show a movie." "Pika." "BOTH:" "Ohh!" "hello." "Checking any luggage?" "This is flight 001, the maiden voyage... of the most incredible dirigibIe to ever sail the seven skies!" "ASH:" "Are you sure it's safe?" "JAMES:" "It's safe enough, kid." "You want to live forever?" "JESSIE:" "Hurry, hurry, step right up!" "Prepare for takeoff!" "Preparing for takeoff." "JiggIy, jiggIypuff!" "Hey, where's our food?" "We're hungry here!" "Pika, pika!" "Togepi!" "JESSIE:" "You're hungry, are you?" "well, I hope you Iike candy..." "As in bars!" "ASH:" "What is this?" "[giggling]" "JESSIE:" "Passengers, prepare for trouble." "If you're flying coach, make it double." "It's them !" "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." "Meowth in flight!" "I give up." "Why can't you clowns just leave us alone?" "JESSIE:" "We'II leave you alone when" "Hey, where's the other twerp who hangs around with you?" "Oh, you mean Brock." "Jessie, I think we've accidentally captured... a pair of very romantic creatures in our little cage!" "You mean..." "Aww!" "They're Iovebirds!" "BOTH:" "Huh?" "Egh!" "ASH:" "You're crazy." "MISTY:" "Crazy is right!" "Never in a million years!" "JESSIE:" "But you're blushing!" "JAMES:" "Kissy, kissy!" "It's not true!" "Pikachu, use your thunderboIt!" "Pika..." "JESSIE:" "hold it!" "This bIimp is a giant, flying infIammabIe gas tank!" "JAMES:" "If your Pikachu uses its thunderboIt..." "MEOWTH:" "We'II all go pika-boom !" "[growls]" "AII right, Romeo." "Time to hand over that Pikachu!" "Come on!" "Let's go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "Go!" "[Groans]" "JiggIy!" "JiggIy." "Aah!" "No-o-o!" "JiggIypuff!" "SINGING:" "JiggIypuff" "JiggIy..." "[Grunts]" "[Yawns]" "JESSIE:" "Hurry!" "Parachutes!" "JAMES:" "We were doing so well." "JiggIypuff" "JiggIy" "[Snoring]" "ALL:" "Looks like Team Rocket's drifting off again..." "JiggIy" "[Snoring]" "NARRATOR:" "while our friends have drifted into dreamland... they're also drifting into danger!" "Where will their giant airship take them?" "And can they survive the flight?" "Find out next time."
