May: Hi, my name's May, and I'm ten years old. I'm on my way to meet my dad's friend, Professor Birch.

Speaker A

And to get my beginner's Pokémon. Then, I can begin my journey as a Pokémon Trainer.

Speaker A

But just between you and me, what I'm more interested in is traveling and seeing new places.

Speaker A

There it is. Littleroot Town up ahead. [GREETING] [screams] Guess I should have worn a helmet.

Speaker A

[CONFUSED] The truth is, I don't like Pokémon. Oh wow! But the traveling? I just love it!

Ash: "Get the Show on the Road!"

Speaker A

Narrator: Still determined to become a Pokémon Master, Ash and his best friend, Pikachu, continue their quest as they sail toward the Hoenn region.

Speaker A

But right now, there's only one thing on Ash's mind. [WEAK] Just try to rest, Pikachu.

Speaker A

As soon as we dock, I'm gonna take you right over to the Pokémon Center.

Speaker A

[PAINED] Announcer: 'Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to Littleroot Town.' 'Prepare for arrival.'

Speaker A

Littleroot Town?

Speaker A

Jessie: The city whose colors will never change.

Speaker A

- Huh?

Speaker A

- That's right. Littleroot Town has remained true to its roots.

Speaker A

Ah, me, I guess my colors have slowly been changing over the years.

Speaker A

- What do you mean?

Speaker A

- Jessie...

Speaker A

- Have you been here before?

Speaker A

- Mm-hmm.

Speaker A

Is this really all that there is?

Speaker A

James/Meowth: Huh? Following the Twerp and trying to catch Pikachu.

Speaker A

James, have we ever truly blasted off at the speed of light?

Speaker A

Is she speaking hypothetically?

Speaker A

If that means wacky, then yes. [EXCITED] [sighs]

Speaker A

Ash: 'Excuse me, sir.' 'Could you tell me where the Pokémon Center is?'

Speaker A

I'm afraid this town doesn't have a Pokémon Center.

Speaker A

- Huh?

Speaker A

- Oh. [WEAK] Oh, Pikachu. I know! Hello? Is this Professor Birch's laboratory?

Speaker A

I'm Ash, from Pallet Town. It's an emergency!

Speaker A

Joshua: 'What? Your Pikachu's ill?' 'That's terrible.'

Speaker A

Well, unfortunately, Professor Birch is out in the field right now, conducting an experiment.

Speaker A

Stay put, Ash. I'll try and get in touch with him.

Speaker A

Great. Thanks a lot.

Speaker A

It's okay. Everything's gonna be just fine now. [WEAK] [CAWING] [WEAK] Pikachu.

Speaker A

Huh? [tires screeching] Are you Ash Ketchum?

Speaker A

- Yes. Are you Professor Birch?

Speaker A

- Let me see. Hmm, not good. Let's get it to my lab immediately.

Speaker A

[revving] - Huh!

Speaker A

- I see. Symptoms of electrical discharge.

Speaker A

What's that mean? What symptom?

Speaker A

Pikachu is unable to release its electricity regularly, so it randomly sparks like that. It's a serious problem that sometimes occurs among Electric-types.

Speaker A

Tell me, has Pikachu been exposed to any magnetic fields?

Speaker A

[PAINED] Yeah, that's it. Pikachu was strapped to a magnet.

Speaker A

An electromagnet, probably.

Speaker A

[FRANTIC] What is it, Pikachu? What's the matter? The high fever is confusing it.

Speaker A

[PAINED] - Pikachu.

Speaker A

- This is bad. We've got to get it to the lab immediately.

Speaker A

Better hold on tight, Ash. Look out! Sorry, we don't have a moment to lose!

Speaker A

[HAPPY] [WEAK] Pikachu, it won't be long now. [tires screeching] This way, professor. Everything is in place and ready for you.

Speaker A

Thank you. This way, Ash.

Speaker A

[TIRED] - Application set.

Speaker A

- What's that?

Speaker A

A device that will rid Pikachu of all its trapped electricity.

Speaker A

- Power on, Joshua.

Speaker A

- Yes, sir! Pikachu, just hold on.

Speaker A

[PAINED] - But, professor?

Speaker A

- Keep going!

Speaker A

Pikachu! It's too much! It won't hold!

Speaker A

[screaming] [PAINED] Pikachu!

Speaker A

Do you have Pokémon that are strong against an Electric-type?

Speaker A

I don't have any other Pokémon with me now.

Speaker A

Well, then, we'll use mine. But wait, we had set those Poké Balls aside for May, remember?

Speaker A

There's no choice! When she gets here, just tell her to wait!

Speaker A

Wonder what's with Pikachu?

Speaker A

Oh, goody. Now we run, too.

Speaker A

Hmm.

Speaker A

- And now what's with you?

Speaker A

- It's what we do, Jess.

Speaker A

Chase!

Speaker A

- Ash! Wait for me!

Speaker A

- Professor Birch?

Speaker A

Pikachu's internal electricity is too high.

Speaker A

A disturbance of any kind in Pikachu's electrical field could cause a massive explosion.

Speaker A

[PAINED] Pikachu's in much more trouble than I thought.

Speaker A

Now what?

Speaker A

I think we'll have better luck if we split up and search for it.

Speaker A

Yeah, you're right.

Speaker A

- 'You must be May.'

Speaker A

- Yep. I'm looking for Professor Birch.

Speaker A

He had an emergency in the mountains but asked that you wait for him here.

Speaker A

Oh, then I'll go find him. Wait! Hold on! I've never been much good at waiting. Bye.

Speaker A

Uh, these kids. Always in a hurry.

Speaker A

[panting] Pikachu. Pikachu?

Speaker A

Huh? Pikachu!

Speaker A

'Come on out, Pikachu!'

Speaker A

Professor Birch: 'Pikachu!' Where are you, Pikachu?

Speaker A

Uh, where are you hiding?

Speaker A

[screaming] [STARTLED] [grunts]

Speaker A

Poochyena

Speaker A

[ANGRY] Heh heh! Oh, hi, there!

Speaker A

Sorry for just dropping in on you like that, Poochyena.

Speaker A

[HOWLING] [ANGRY] [ANGRY]

Speaker A

Uh, that's not a friendly greeting, no.

Speaker A

Doesn't sound sad, either.

Speaker A

So, that leaves one thing. You're angry!

Speaker A

[ATTACK] [screams] I'm brilliant!

Speaker A

Please! Stop it!

Speaker A

'Can't we discuss this?' 'Help!'

Speaker A

Professor Birch? Terrific! You must be May.

Speaker A

Great timing! Please. Open that bag over there!

Speaker A

- This one here, right?

Speaker A

- Yes!

Speaker A

Grab any of the Poké Balls inside, and hurry!

Speaker A

[gasps] That's easier said than done.

Speaker A

Which one of 'em do you want?

Speaker A

[SNARLING] Anyone will do!

Speaker A

[sighs] Okay, this one.
