1. The road's got to be somewhere.Copy !req
2. Everything's somewhere.Copy !req
3. Ash, have you gotten us lost again?Copy !req
4. Well, here's a familiar scene.
Wandering in a forest,Copy !req
5. it appears our friends
have once again lost their way.Copy !req
6. Pikachu.Copy !req
7. It's been quite a while since
Ash left his home in the town of Pallet,Copy !req
8. and a lot has happened
since he began his Pokémon journey.Copy !req
9. He's already earned two
of the qualifying badgesCopy !req
10. for participation in the Pokémon League,Copy !req
11. a boulder badge
and a cascade badge.Copy !req
12. Pretty impressive, huh?Copy !req
13. You didn't earn those badges.Copy !req
14. You got them just because Brock
and my sister felt sorry for you.Copy !req
15. - I did too.
- Mm.Copy !req
16. Chill out, guys.Copy !req
17. Either way, Ash here has two badges
and six Pokémon.Copy !req
18. He needs those six Pokémon
to compete in the Pokémon League.Copy !req
19. That's right, Brock.Copy !req
20. In the league, a trainer is allowed
to carry six Pokémon at a time.Copy !req
21. What are their names again, Ash?Copy !req
22. Their names are...Copy !req
23. - Pikachu.
Pikachu,Copy !req
24. Butterfree. Bulbasaur.
- Bulbasaur.Copy !req
25. Charmander.
- Char.Copy !req
26. Squirtle.
- Squirtle. Squirtle.Copy !req
27. And I caught them all fair and square.Copy !req
28. Caught them?
Ash, all your Pokémon followed you.Copy !req
29. Well, heh, they're all mine,Copy !req
30. and that's all that really counts
for a Pokémon trainer.Copy !req
31. This may come as a surprise to you,Copy !req
32. but real Pokémon trainers
actually catch Pokémon on their own.Copy !req
33. You never give me a break.Copy !req
34. That's because you keep bragging
about those two badges.Copy !req
35. It's really not unusual for most trainers
to capture 20 or 30 Pokémon.Copy !req
36. You're lucky
your Pokémon follow you around.Copy !req
37. And don't forget, Ash,
you had our help too.Copy !req
38. Yeah, don't forget about that, Ash.Copy !req
39. You're always putting me down.Copy !req
40. But I'll show you.Copy !req
41. I'm going to prove to you
that I can do it.Copy !req
42. I'm going to be a Pokémon master.Copy !req
43. Stand back and watch me work.Copy !req
44. Mystery At The LighthouseCopy !req
45. Whoa!Copy !req
46. Ash finds his way
out of the woods,Copy !req
47. and discovers a beautiful beach
and a sparkling blue ocean.Copy !req
48. But he seems disappointed.Copy !req
49. I don't want to watch the sunset.
I want more Pokémon. Huh?Copy !req
50. Hey, wait. Stay here.
Don't go. Come back.Copy !req
51. It's a Pokémon.Copy !req
52. Krabby. Lives near the shore.Copy !req
53. Its average height is about 16 inches.Copy !req
54. A Pokémon's a Pokémon, I guess.Copy !req
55. But this Krabby sure is shrimpy.Copy !req
56. Uh, I didn't mean to insult you, Krabby.Copy !req
57. You're a cute little—Copy !req
58. Aah!Copy !req
59. Showdown time.Copy !req
60. Tiny or not, you are a Pokémon,Copy !req
61. and I'll show Misty and Brock
that I can catch you.Copy !req
62. Poké Ball, go!Copy !req
63. Now, I really caught one.Copy !req
64. Good try, Krabby, but not good enough.Copy !req
65. - Huh?Copy !req
66. What happened?
Where'd my new Krabby go? Aah!Copy !req
67. I don't see it anywhere. Where'd it go?Copy !req
68. Didn't you know that a trainer
can only keep six Pokémon?Copy !req
69. Huh?Copy !req
70. Trainers can only have six Pokémon,
and the rest are transported.Copy !req
71. Yeah, but you can switch one Pokémon
for anotherCopy !req
72. by pressing the white button
inside your Pokédex.Copy !req
73. - Uh... you mean this button?
Right.Copy !req
74. It sends a signal to activate the system
that makes the exchange.Copy !req
75. But I don't want to exchange my Pokémon.Copy !req
76. Then shut your Pokédex and quit whining.Copy !req
77. I wasn't whining. I just wanted to know
where my Krabby went.Copy !req
78. Oh, you don't have to worry about that.Copy !req
79. Your Krabby got transported
to a place for safekeeping.Copy !req
80. Where does it get transported to?Copy !req
81. Your Pokémon gets transported
to wherever you got your Pokédex from.Copy !req
82. Then that means Krabby must be with...Copy !req
83. Here's your Pikachu!Copy !req
84. It's with Professor Oak.Copy !req
85. That's right.
Krabby just got transported automaticallyCopy !req
86. to Professor Oak's Pokémon laboratory,
so don't worry about it.Copy !req
87. So, Krabby's with Professor Oak, huh?Copy !req
88. Oh, now, I'm doubly worried.Copy !req
89. Isn't there any way
I can make sure it's okay?Copy !req
90. We could call Professor Oak
to check on it.Copy !req
91. But we haven't passed a phone all day,Copy !req
92. and this beach
is pretty far out of the way.Copy !req
93. There's got to be a phone
around here someplace.Copy !req
94. I've got to check on Krabby.Copy !req
95. I'm more worried
about having to camp out again tonight.Copy !req
96. I'm sick of sleeping in sleeping bags.Copy !req
97. I'm just worried about finding a way
to find out if poor little Krabby's okay.Copy !req
98. Pika! Pika!Copy !req
99. - Pika?
- Pika?Copy !req
100. What's that?Copy !req
101. It's a lighthouse.Copy !req
102. A lighthouse!Copy !req
103. Every lighthouse has to have a keeper,
and he'll have a phone.Copy !req
104. And I'm going to use it
to call Professor Oak.Copy !req
105. And there'll probably be some extra beds.Copy !req
106. A sleeping bag is no way for me
to get my beauty sleep.Copy !req
107. Yeah, and there'll be somebody there
to tell us where we are.Copy !req
108. Let's go!Copy !req
109. - All right.
- Yeah!Copy !req
110. Whew. That was farther than it looked.Copy !req
111. This lighthouse looks weird.Copy !req
112. - Guess we better ring the bell.
- I got it.Copy !req
113. Who's there?Copy !req
114. Uh, excuse us, sir,
but we're travelers, and we're lost.Copy !req
115. We've got a small emergency here,Copy !req
116. and we need to use your telephone,
please, sir.Copy !req
117. We've been camping out for quite a while,
and I'd sure appreciate a nice, comfy bed.Copy !req
118. And I wonder if I could use your kitchenCopy !req
119. to make some bacon double cheeseburgers
for our group.Copy !req
120. And I'd be more than happy
to make something for you.Copy !req
121. That's great.
Can you cook without using tofu?Copy !req
122. Oh, sure, I can cook lots of things
without using any tofu.Copy !req
123. That's good.Copy !req
124. I've been eating nothing but tofu
since my cook went on vacation.Copy !req
125. Come on in.Copy !req
126. Would you mind
if I borrow your phone?Copy !req
127. There's a phone right near you.Copy !req
128. - Huh?
- Huh?Copy !req
129. Hey, it's a videophone. Oh, that's cool.Copy !req
130. I'll call Professor Oak now,
and see if he has my Pokémon.Copy !req
131. I'm sure Krabby's in great shape.Copy !req
132. The professor won't mind
if I call him collect.Copy !req
133. Uh...Copy !req
134. Well, hi, Ash.
You caught me cooking dinner.Copy !req
135. My cook is on vacation,Copy !req
136. and I've got to fend for myself
till she returns.Copy !req
137. Wait a minute, professor.
You're not eating my Krabby, are you?Copy !req
138. Don't worry. I'm taking good care
of your Krabby. It's right here.Copy !req
139. Anyway, that Krabby of yours is too small
to make a very hearty meal.Copy !req
140. On the other hand, the Krabby that Gary
caught would make an excellent dinner.Copy !req
141. Much better than tofu.Copy !req
142. What? You mean Gary caught a Krabby too?Copy !req
143. Yes, it's quite a catch.Copy !req
144. Take a look for yourself.Copy !req
145. - Awesome.Copy !req
146. I want you to know that my grandson Gary
has already caught 45 Pokémon.Copy !req
147. Forty-five Pokémon?Copy !req
148. Pikachu?Copy !req
149. By the way, Ash,
just where are you calling me from anyway?Copy !req
150. We're at an old lighthouse
way up on top of a cliff.Copy !req
151. Oh, that must be Bill's lighthouse.Copy !req
152. He's a young Pokémon researcher
who knows even more than me.Copy !req
153. See what you can learn from him.Copy !req
154. He could teach you just about everything
about Pokémon, and then some.Copy !req
155. This is Bill, Professor Oak.
Good to hear from you.Copy !req
156. Hello, Bill. Please give my friends
a crash course in Pokémon.Copy !req
157. Uh-oh. Tofu's done.Copy !req
158. Well, there's no way I can ignore
a request from the great Professor Oak.Copy !req
159. I am Bill of the lighthouse.Copy !req
160. According to the phone book,Copy !req
161. that lighthouse belongs to Bill,
the famous Pokémon researcher.Copy !req
162. Then I guess we've come
to the right place, huh?Copy !req
163. There must be zillions of rare Pokémon
stored inside that lighthouse.Copy !req
164. Then there's only one thing for us to do.Copy !req
165. Right. Sneak in
and take everything we can grab.Copy !req
166. How shall we sneak in?Copy !req
167. We could take the road, or risk our lives
by climbing up the cliffs.Copy !req
168. - Well, we certainly can't take the road.
- We have to climb up those cliffs.Copy !req
169. 'Cause we're the bad guysCopy !req
170. and the bad guys always got to sneak in.Copy !req
171. It's time for us to rain
on someone's parade again. James!Copy !req
172. Jessie.Copy !req
173. We're back-to-back,
so prepare for trouble.Copy !req
174. Watch your step or we'll make it double.Copy !req
175. To protect the world from devastation...Copy !req
176. To unite all peoples within our nation...Copy !req
177. To denounce the evils of truth and love...Copy !req
178. To extend our reach to the stars above...Copy !req
179. - Jessie! Ha!
- James!Copy !req
180. Team Rocket,
blast off at the speed of light.Copy !req
181. Surrender now or prepare to fight.Copy !req
182. Meowth! That's right.Copy !req
183. To be truly great criminals,
we have to do things the hard way.Copy !req
184. And then we'll become hardened criminals.Copy !req
185. But it will be tough to reach the top.Copy !req
186. Because we're afraid of heights!Copy !req
187. It can't be.
That's a Kabuto, an extinct Pokémon.Copy !req
188. I wonder what it's doing here.Copy !req
189. No, I'm not a Kabuto.Copy !req
190. I'm Bill, the Pokémon researcher.Copy !req
191. Wait, are you a human being or a Pokémon?Copy !req
192. This is a costume.
I'm stuck inside it.Copy !req
193. Do you need help getting out?Copy !req
194. - Yes, step up here.
- Tell me what to do.Copy !req
195. Push that button.Copy !req
196. - This one here?
Yes. These arms are too short.Copy !req
197. I tried to get out,
but I couldn't reach the button.Copy !req
198. Thanks for helping me get out.Copy !req
199. I've been stuck in that costume for hours.Copy !req
200. Did you come from a costume party?Copy !req
201. No, it's not for a party.Copy !req
202. This is a special costume
that I use in my research.Copy !req
203. Getting inside its skin
helps me get inside its head.Copy !req
204. What do you mean?Copy !req
205. There are many kinds
of extinct Pokémon,Copy !req
206. and I want to understand
how they lived.Copy !req
207. Putting on a costume is one way of trying
to figure out what they were like.Copy !req
208. You can understand what a Pokémon was like
from wearing a costume?Copy !req
209. Yes, indeed. Or I'm beginning to.Copy !req
210. This planet was created
4.6 billion years ago.Copy !req
211. During that time,
all kinds of Pokémon existed.Copy !req
212. They had many ways of living.Copy !req
213. All kinds of Pokémon? How many?Copy !req
214. On this planet, there are more than
150 known species of Pokémon.Copy !req
215. Over 150?Copy !req
216. You're lucky to be Pokémon trainers.Copy !req
217. Your goal is to catch
all of these different kinds of Pokémon.Copy !req
218. That's a great task.Copy !req
219. Yeah, but so far I've only gotten seven.Copy !req
220. There sure are a lot of—Copy !req
221. Of course, these are just the Pokémon
we know about.Copy !req
222. There are still many Pokémon
that have never been discovered,Copy !req
223. so we need to keep searching.Copy !req
224. How many could there be?Copy !req
225. No one knows exactly.
The search goes on.Copy !req
226. There's always something new to look for
in our lives and in ourselves.Copy !req
227. Something to look for?Copy !req
228. Yes, there's a lot for us to look for,
inside and outside ourselves.Copy !req
229. There's meaning for every creature,Copy !req
230. a meaning for all the Pokémon,
and a meaning for all us humans too.Copy !req
231. A meaning for all.Copy !req
232. Sometimes, I wonder
what the meaning of it all is.Copy !req
233. Why do I go to all this trouble
just to be bad?Copy !req
234. It's so we can get other people's Pokémon.Copy !req
235. I'm all for it, just as long
as there's something in it for Meowth.Copy !req
236. Keep looking for new Pokémon to catch.Copy !req
237. It's something that's very important
for Pokémon research.Copy !req
238. It's as vital to me as it is to you.Copy !req
239. Right now, though, there's only one
Pokémon I'm searching for.Copy !req
240. What kind of Pokémon?Copy !req
241. It's probably the biggest Pokémon ever.Copy !req
242. Bigger than all of the rest.
And no one has ever seen it.Copy !req
243. It's been wandering the world
for years and years,Copy !req
244. looking for friends.Copy !req
245. But doesn't that Pokémon have any friends
or family?Copy !req
246. The Pokémon wanders because it's alone.Copy !req
247. It's the only Pokémon of its species,
one of a kind.Copy !req
248. One night, I heard this very strange sound
coming across the ocean.Copy !req
249. "I want... I want to meet you."
That's what it said to me.Copy !req
250. Pika.Copy !req
251. Some time ago, I recorded a similar sound,Copy !req
252. and played it from the lighthouse
towards the ocean.Copy !req
253. "Let's be friends. I want to meet you."Copy !req
254. One day, I heard the same voice
calling back to me from over the ocean.Copy !req
255. "I want to meet you too.
I want to be friends."Copy !req
256. It was answering me back.Copy !req
257. Some foggy night,
that Pokémon might come hereCopy !req
258. to meet a friend it's been seeking
for a very long time.Copy !req
259. I would be so happy to meet that Pokémon.Copy !req
260. But will you try to capture the Pokémon?Copy !req
261. Why do I need to capture it?Copy !req
262. Meeting it would be enough for me.Copy !req
263. Just a chance to study it
would make my long wait worthwhile.Copy !req
264. - Hmm? Huh?Copy !req
265. It's here. The signal.Copy !req
266. It sounds like it's singing.Copy !req
267. - Would you care to dance?
- Oh, thank you.Copy !req
268. - What beautiful music.
- it's very haunting. Yet so sweet.Copy !req
269. Look! It's coming from that thing!Copy !req
270. - That's a big Pokémon.
- So size does matter.Copy !req
271. Something so rare and unusual.Copy !req
272. You know what that means.
Let's grab it for ourselves.Copy !req
273. Quite right. I'll attack it at once.Copy !req
274. But it seems a shame to aim
at such a sweet creature.Copy !req
275. Of course it's a shame.
We built our fame on shame.Copy !req
276. Go on! Fire! It's all the shame to me.Copy !req
277. - Ah!Copy !req
278. Please don't go, Pokémon!
Please stay with us!Copy !req
279. I've waited so long
for a chance to see you here.Copy !req
280. Pokémon, wait!Copy !req
281. Do we always have to mess up
everyone's plans?Copy !req
282. Even I think this is rotten.Copy !req
283. Quit complaining.
We could score big with this Pokémon.Copy !req
284. We're blasting off again!Copy !req
285. Pokémon.Copy !req
286. What kind of Pokémon was that anyway?Copy !req
287. Who knows?Copy !req
288. Pokémon live in more ways and places
than humans may ever learn.Copy !req
289. What in the world was that?Copy !req
290. One of the rarest Pokémon around.Copy !req
291. It's exactly the type
we've been trying to capture.Copy !req
292. We missed our chance,
but we can keep dreaming.Copy !req
293. When our Pokémon dreams come true,
it's going to be somebody's nightmare.Copy !req
294. After all, tomorrow is another day.Copy !req
295. I think looking for and catching Pokémon
should help bring all of us together.Copy !req
296. Learning to raise Pokémon is another way
of understanding how to live with them.Copy !req
297. And Pokémon are always lots of fun
to play with.Copy !req
298. Meanwhile, I'll stand watch
for the giant PokémonCopy !req
299. to appear at my lighthouse again.Copy !req
300. Bill, do you think we'll ever find
all the Pokémon there are?Copy !req
301. No, Ash, there are probably as many
as we can imagine. Maybe many, many more.Copy !req
302. Maybe there's no limit to the Pokémon
we can actually find on this planet.Copy !req
303. Ash, you're a Pokémon trainer.Copy !req
304. I'm a Pokémon researcher, seeking out
all kinds of life on this planet.Copy !req
305. Even if our paths are different,
I think our goals are the same.Copy !req
306. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
307. Over time,
we uncover new informationCopy !req
308. about the mysterious ways of the Pokémon.Copy !req
309. The more knowledge we gain,Copy !req
310. the more we realize
how little we actually do know.Copy !req
311. And so the journey of discovery
continuesCopy !req
312. in the incredible world of Pokémon.Copy !req
313. It's that time again.Copy !req
314. 150 Pokémon, five days a week!Copy !req
315. That's about 30 or so each day.Copy !req
316. It's not too hard. Just listen real good.Copy !req
317. Okay, so today was pretty easy.Copy !req
318. But you got to put all five days together.Copy !req
319. It's the only way to name all 150.Copy !req
320. Catch you here tomorrow.Copy !req
