Seviper.Copy !req
59. They like her, too.Copy !req
60. I don't remember you ever liking
contests when we were young.Copy !req

64. Razzle-dazzle time.Copy !req
65. Wrap me up with Wrap!Copy !req

72. compared to her last contest

74. and we'll witness her out-of-control
skills.Copy !req

Seviper lady look bad. Huh?Copy !req
77. Just wait and see.Copy !req

84. With a brain like a supercomputer,Copy !req
85. it possesses many different
supernatural powers.Copy !req
86. Oh, now I see what Kenny meant.Copy !req
87. Can't wait to see what's next!Copy !req
88. Use Light Screen!Copy !req
89. Alakazam!Copy !req
90. That Light Screen's totally
boxed Alakazam in!Copy !req
91. Now Shadow Ball!Copy !req
92. Ala... kazam!Copy !req

94. Now Hidden Power!Copy !req
95. Alakazam!Copy !req
96. Now, there's classic Psi Pokemon

97. Beautiful, powerful moves that

99. Oh!Copy !req
100. Ah!Copy !req
101. Awesome!Copy !req
102. Hey, that's no fair!Copy !req
103. He got a cheerier cheer than I did!Copy !req
104. Kenny's been working hard on showing
off those moves.Copy !req
105. Yeah, and you know that Alakazam's
really strong in battle, too!Copy !req
106. OK, with that we wrap up
our first round.Copy !req
107. Now let's take a brief pause and let
our judges do their thing.Copy !req
108. No need to worry.Copy !req
109. No need to worry.Copy !req
110. Dawn? Oh, hey.Copy !req
111. I thought so.Copy !req
112. Come on, there's really nothing
to worry about.Copy !req
113. You really wowed them at the end.Copy !req
114. Yeah, all three judges loved it.Copy !req
115. And Pachirisu was so cute!Copy !req
116. Pikachu. Buneary!Copy !req
117. No need to worry.Copy !req
118. I know it's your line -
but I mean it, too.Copy !req
119. Pikachu.Copy !req
120. Thanks, Ash. I hear you.Copy !req
121. Huh? All right, we're set!Copy !req
122. So, here are the judges' results for
the first round!Copy !req
123. Eight impressive coordinators
will be moving on.Copy !req
124. And here they are!Copy !req
125. Congratulations!Copy !req
126. Hah! See? I told you,
no need to worry.Copy !req
127. Pikachu!Copy !req
128. I'm in!Copy !req
129. I'm in!Copy !req
130. It's always much more fun to be
right.Copy !req
131. Buneary! You were!Copy !req
132. Ha-ha! We did it, Pachirisu!Copy !req
133. Time to find out the round two
match-ups.Copy !req
134. And you all know how we do that!Copy !req
135. Our computer gives it
a random shuffle.Copy !req
136. You see how my hard work paid off?Copy !req
137. We're on our way and we're not...Copy !req
138. Winning's going to take time
to get used to!Copy !req
139. And we get to stick around to
survive another glorious day!Copy !req
140. Please! Of course you're sticking
around.Copy !req
141. I'm sending you the bill for my
nails.Copy !req
142. Wobbuffet!Copy !req
143. Oh, Piplup, isn't it great?Copy !req
144. We're going all the way!Copy !req
145. Piplup!Copy !req
146. Just keep holding that thought.Copy !req
147. It's that attitude that'll win this.Copy !req
148. Pika-pika!Copy !req
149. I will. Cheer for us, OK, Buneary?
Buneary!Copy !req
150. Hey! Glad you got to the second
round, Kenny.Copy !req
151. Yeah, me, too. Thanks, Ash.Copy !req
152. Ash, we should get back to
our seats now.Copy !req
153. I'm looking for a great battle from
both of you.Copy !req
154. Pika!Copy !req
155. It'd be so great if we went up
against each other, don't you think?Copy !req
156. Are you going to use Piplup?Copy !req
157. Yep, are you going to use Prinplup?Copy !req
158. Of course I am, and I'm going to
win my first contest...Copy !req
159. .. Dee-Dee!Copy !req
160. Knock it off with "Dee-Dee".Copy !req
161. Hmm! Come on, chill out.Copy !req
162. You may finally get your wishCopy !req
163. and end up having that battle
with me, you know?Copy !req
164. Huh?Copy !req
165. Ah-ha! So you do think I'm good,
then?Copy !req
166. See, I did watch you at the
Jubilife contest,Copy !req
167. but it was frustrating
I wasn't in it.Copy !req
168. So I figured, if I entered this one,
then I'd run into you for sure.Copy !req
169. Hmm?Copy !req
170. It's time for our second-round
contest battles!Copy !req
171. In just five short minutes,Copy !req
172. eight coordinators will work to show
off their most beautiful movesCopy !req
173. while shrinking their opponent's
total pointsCopy !req
174. as much as they possibly can!Copy !req
175. Now for our first match-up.Copy !req
176. It's Jessilina on one side...Copy !req
177. .. and Dawn on the other.Copy !req
178. I can't wait for Dawn to use
her new attack.Copy !req
179. That Jessilina was in the finals
the last time.Copy !req
180. Won't be easy.Copy !req
181. Buneary! Pika!Copy !req
182. Like taking toffee from a twerp.Copy !req
183. Watch closely, Kenny,
and I'll show you how to battle!Copy !req
184. Hmm...Copy !req
185. Five minutes. Let's go.Copy !req
186. All right, then, Piplup, spotlight!Copy !req
187. Alrighty, then, Dustox -
it's showtime.Copy !req
188. Dustox!Copy !req
189. Let's make this a short night
with Whirlwind.Copy !req
190. And Dustox delivers!Copy !req
191. That Whirlwind's showing off
those shiny scales.Copy !req
192. Piplup, do a flip and use Peck!Copy !req
193. Yeah, that sure is a great move.Copy !req
194. Their using that Whirlwind to
actually power up Piplup's flip.Copy !req
195. Excellent!Copy !req
196. Amazing how Dustox's scales
are really making Piplup'sCopy !req
197. blue body look beautiful.Copy !req
198. A great performance,
using her opponent's attacks.Copy !req
199. Oh, now, how selfish can you get?Copy !req
200. Piplup!Copy !req
201. And Piplup soars directly
above Dustox!Copy !req
202. Use Poison Sting! Dustox!Copy !req
203. Dodge it, quick!Copy !req
204. And Jessilina and Dustox come
throughCopy !req
205. with a perfect counterattack.Copy !req
206. Now Psybeam!Copy !req
207. Dustox! Piplup!Copy !req
208. Yeah, Piplup, go! Pikachu!Copy !req
209. Dawn can make those dodges look
pretty as a picture,Copy !req
210. but there's a limit.Copy !req
211. She's going to have to attack.Copy !req
212. Poison Sting!Copy !req
213. It's like Dustox is dancing
in mid-air.Copy !req
214. And Piplup's getting clobbered!Copy !req
215. Now, this is what I call a good
time.Copy !req
216. Piplup, use Bide!Copy !req
217. Piplup!Copy !req
218. Time to squash that pipsqueak!Copy !req
219. Nothing like trashing twerps!Copy !req
220. Wobbuffet!Copy !req
221. We're halfway there.Copy !req
222. Oh, I see! That Bide's been storing
power.Copy !req
223. Now look out!Copy !req
224. OK, Piplup, go!Copy !req
225. What a hit!Copy !req
226. It's that kind of overwhelming power
and shining beautyCopy !req
227. that takes your breath away!Copy !req
228. All right! Look at those points!Copy !req
229. Major damage! Pika!Copy !req
230. Dustox!Copy !req
231. No way! Oh, come on!Copy !req
232. You think we're strangers to
a little fireworks?Copy !req
233. Oh, yeah! Blasting off has been
great training for this moment.Copy !req
234. After a while, you start to build
calluses.Copy !req
235. Wobbuffet!Copy !req
236. Poison Sting!Copy !req
237. Now use Peck!Copy !req
238. Piplup! Dustox!Copy !req
239. What? That's all she wrote!Copy !req
240. That Peck packs it in for Dustox
and Jessilina,Copy !req
241. and Piplup and Dawn are off to the
final round!Copy !req
242. All right!Copy !req
243. We did it, Piplup! Piplup!Copy !req
244. Way to go, Piplup!Copy !req
245. Dawn's really gotten the contest
battle thing down.Copy !req
246. Oh, of all the
half-baked,Copy !req
247. half-witted, hapless, hopeless...Copy !req
248. Help! Quick, make me a machine or
somethingCopy !req
249. and let's win something already!Copy !req
250. We're fresh out of dough!Copy !req
251. You spent it doing your nails!Copy !req
252. Then try being creative and think!Copy !req
253. Why did I cut up my credit cards?Copy !req
254. Wobbuffet!Copy !req
255. All right, now it's time for the
final stage!Copy !req
256. And here are our duelling
coordinators.Copy !req
257. It's Kenny over here...Copy !req
258. .. and it's Dawn over there!Copy !req
259. Finals are always the best part!Copy !req
260. Well, Ash, you called it right.Copy !req
261. Two old childhood friends
battling to the finish.Copy !req
262. Our first battle,
and it's in the finals!Copy !req
263. But no need to worry,
it's like a regular battle.Copy !req
264. My first ribbon, and
it'll be from beating Dee-Dee.Copy !req
265. Again, five minutes on the clock.Copy !req
266. So let's go!Copy !req
267. Come on, Piplup! Spotlight!Copy !req
268. Piplup! Piplup!Copy !req
269. Prinplup, now!Copy !req
270. Let's hit it!Copy !req
271. There you go!
It's Piplup and Prinplup,Copy !req
272. a battle between Pokemon evolutions!Copy !req
273. Piplup, Bubble Beam! Go!Copy !req
274. Prinplup, use Bubble Beam as well!Copy !req
275. Plup-plup-plup! Plup-plup-plup!Copy !req
276. That looks pretty even.Copy !req
277. I'm thinking Prinplup's Bubble
Beam's got the edge, though.Copy !req
278. It makes sense, since Prinplup's the
evolved Piplup.Copy !req
279. Use Peck now!Copy !req
280. Prinplup, intercept with Metal Claw!Copy !req
281. Prinplup! Piplup!Copy !req
282. Plup!Copy !req
283. Piplup, no!Copy !req
284. Prinplup's Metal Claw renders
Piplup's Peck powerless!Copy !req
285. Now use Drill Peck. Let's go!Copy !req
286. Quick, use Bide, Piplup!Copy !req
287. That Drill Peck is working like
a charm,Copy !req
288. and Piplup is spinning helplessly!Copy !req
289. That's costing Dawn points,
and Piplup some real damage!Copy !req
290. Piplup, stay strong!Copy !req
291. Now, Prinplup, smash it!Copy !req
292. Piplup!Copy !req
293. Quick, Piplup, full blast!Copy !req
294. Piplup!Copy !req
295. Piplup transformed the damage from
that Drill PeckCopy !req
296. into powerful attack energy
and gave it right back!Copy !req
297. Piplup!Copy !req
298. A gorgeous manoeuvre!Copy !req
299. Nice, Dee-Dee. Prinplup!Copy !req
300. All right, Metal Claw!Copy !req
301. Piplup, now flip!Copy !req
302. Whirlpool!Copy !req
303. And with that, Piplup has created
a super-sized Whirlpool!Copy !req
304. Wow, check it out!Copy !req
305. Piplup!Copy !req
306. That impressive Whirlpool now has
Prinplup surrounded!Copy !req
307. Hey, that's great you learned
Whirlpool!Copy !req
308. But don't expect it to do much
against a water type! Grr.Copy !req
309. Man, if it doesn't do anything,
no way it'll be her last move.Copy !req
310. Right, but Kenny's losing points.Copy !req
311. And that must mean the judges
really like the looksCopy !req
312. and timing of Piplup's Whirlpool.Copy !req
313. I'll show you about evolving!Copy !req
314. Bubble Beam!Copy !req
315. Plup-plup-plup!Copy !req
316. Piplup! Beautiful!Copy !req
317. Prinplup's sure something. Pika!Copy !req
318. Yeah, that Bubble Beam was
super strong.Copy !req
319. Now use Mist!Copy !req
320. Wow, talk about thick!Copy !req
321. I can't see Prinplup at all!Copy !req
322. Pretty cool thinking.Copy !req
323. Good strategy, all right.Copy !req
324. Using Mist to hide!Copy !req
325. They're trying to wear Piplup down
so Piplup runs out of patience.Copy !req
326. Piplup, stay calm!Copy !req
327. Use Drill Peck!Copy !req
328. Now down!Copy !req
329. Piplup, deep breath and use
Whirlpool!Copy !req
330. Please! You're not going to stop my
Prinplup with a water type move!Copy !req
331. Now, Piplup, on the Whirlpool!Copy !req
332. What are they up to?Copy !req
333. Now there's a surprise!Copy !req
334. Riding the Whirlpool to dodge
Prinplup's attacks!Copy !req
335. OK, use Peck!Copy !req
336. Come on, two can play at that game.Copy !req
337. Prinplup, on the Whirlpool, too!Copy !req
338. They're both on it! Pika!Copy !req
339. Quick, Metal Claw!Copy !req
340. Wow, that Peck and Metal Claw are
meshing together perfectly.Copy !req
341. Using that Whirlpool like this
is brilliant strategy.Copy !req
342. Watching water types do battle like
this is a sight to see!Copy !req
343. Remarkable, too!Copy !req
344. I can't seem to take my eyes off
of them, even for a second!Copy !req
345. Dawn and Piplup are doing great!Copy !req
346. Using Whirlpool as neither attack
nor defenceCopy !req
347. is really something new.Copy !req
348. We're down to mere seconds
on the clock.Copy !req
349. Piplup, Bubble Beam! Go!Copy !req
350. Prinplup, Bubble Beam! Go!Copy !req
351. Ah!Copy !req
352. Ah!Copy !req
353. Time's up! It's all over!Copy !req
354. Now the moment of truth,
and the winner is...Copy !req
355. Wow, it's Dawn of Twinleaf Town!Copy !req
356. We won! We won!Copy !req
357. Yay! We did it and got our
first ribbon!Copy !req
358. We did it! Yay!Copy !req
359. Pikachu!Copy !req
360. Yes, Dawn won it!Copy !req
361. Prinplup... Prinplup, I'm sorry.Copy !req
362. I just wasn't strong enough.Copy !req
363. Huh?Copy !req
364. Hmm.Copy !req
365. Mm. Maybe next time.Copy !req
366. And now Mr Contesta will present
the prestigious Floaroma ribbonCopy !req
367. to our winning coordinator, Dawn!Copy !req
368. Congratulations.Copy !req
369. I understand this is your
first ribbon, right? Right!Copy !req
370. We're expecting great
things from you!Copy !req
371. Oh, thank you so much!Copy !req
372. No need to worry now, cos the
Floaroma ribbon's all mine!Copy !req
373. And that, ladies and gentlemen,
has brought us to the endCopy !req
374. of this year's flowery and fragrant
Floaroma Pokemon contest.Copy !req
375. Don't forget, there are more
exciting eventsCopy !req
376. on this year's calendar.Copy !req
377. But we'll see you back here
next year.Copy !req
378. Mom, I won!Copy !req
379. Here's my very first ribbon.
Isn't it cute?Copy !req
380. Yes, I saw it on TV, dear.Copy !req
381. Great job, Piplup!Copy !req
382. You, too, Pachirisu!Copy !req
383. Oh!Copy !req
384. Oh, yeah. I know you told me not
to call youCopy !req
385. every time something happened,Copy !req
386. but I just won my very first
ribbon and I had to call!Copy !req
387. That's OK.Copy !req
388. Just remember you can't be
satisfied with one ribbon.Copy !req
389. You need to keep working until you
and your Pokemon are a real team.Copy !req
390. I will! Don't worry, Mom.Copy !req
391. Hey, what are you crying for, Dawn?Copy !req
392. They're tears of joy!Copy !req
393. I bet your mom's really proud.Copy !req
394. Yeah, and thank you for cheering
me on.Copy !req
395. Now it's your turn at the
Eterna Gym.Copy !req
396. And then it'll be my turn
to cheer for you!Copy !req
397. Great! Thanks a lot, Dawn!Copy !req
398. Pika-pika!Copy !req
399. So it's 1-0, huh, Dawn?Copy !req
400. Yeah, but you and Prinplup are going
to win soon.Copy !req
401. Huh?Copy !req
402. I'm sure you've got a win
coming up, too!Copy !req
403. You bet! Thanks, Kenny! Pikachu!Copy !req
404. I'm sure I'll see you at another
contest.Copy !req
405. I'm really glad I became
a coordinator, you know?Copy !req
406. Cos no doubt you and I will be
battling again.Copy !req
407. See you, Dee-Dee.Copy !req
408. Huh?Copy !req
409. Stop calling me Dee-Dee!Copy !req
410. He sure makes a good rival for you.Copy !req
411. Hey, what's so bad about Dee-Dee
anyway?Copy !req
412. Ash, don't go there!Copy !req
413. Dawn's savouring her
Floaroma contest victoryCopy !req
414. for two reasons - not only is it her
first contest win,Copy !req
415. but she also finally had a chance
to face offCopy !req
416. against her childhood friend, Kenny,
and beat him!Copy !req
