1. With two Pokémon badges
pinned to his jacket,Copy !req
2. our hero, Ash, marches boldly
along the path to, uh...Copy !req
3. - the path to...
- Where are we going?Copy !req
4. How many times do I have to tell you?
Vermillion City.Copy !req
5. It's got a luxury cruise ship
and I'm dying to see it.Copy !req
6. We won't have time for sightseeing.Copy !req
7. I've heard that there's
a really great Gym in Vermillion.Copy !req
8. A Gym? All right!
I'm going to win my third badge.Copy !req
9. - Let's go!
- Don't get your hopes up.Copy !req
10. There are a lot of tough trainers
around here.Copy !req
11. Ah, bring them on!Copy !req
12. I bet none of them has even
one Pokémon badge.Copy !req
13. Pidgeotto, finish it!Copy !req
14. Oh, Rattata!Copy !req
15. And I win!Copy !req
16. That's number ten!Copy !req
17. You're a really
great Pokémon trainer.Copy !req
18. Well, I guess I was pretty good there.Copy !req
19. Wow! You've got badges.Copy !req
20. - Oh, you mean these?
- You got two?Copy !req
21. I think getting him those badges
was a mistake.Copy !req
22. Uh-huh.Copy !req
23. - Pika, pika.
- I bet you could even beat A.J.Copy !req
24. - A.J.?
- Yeah, he lives over there.Copy !req
25. A.J. trains savage Pokémon.
He built his own Gym.Copy !req
26. He's never lost a single match.Copy !req
27. Until now.
He hasn't come against somebody like me.Copy !req
28. He's getting a big head.Copy !req
29. Yeah, but his brain's still the same size.Copy !req
30. Pika, pika.Copy !req
31. Look at that! This Gym isn't even licensed
by the Pokémon League.Copy !req
32. Undefeated? Big deal!
I can beat him.Copy !req
33. 98 wins in a row.Copy !req
34. You may have won ten battles,Copy !req
35. but he's won almost ten times
more matches than you have.Copy !req
36. I go for quality, not quantity!Copy !req
37. Are you my next victim?Copy !req
38. You must be the wild Pokémon trainer.Copy !req
39. Huh! That's my job.Copy !req
40. But beating chumps like you is my hobby.Copy !req
41. Ready to lose?Copy !req
42. - Wow.
- Now, this is not too shabby at all.Copy !req
43. Free! Free!Copy !req
44. - What's in the backpack?
- The wild Pokémon that I just caught.Copy !req
45. There's a whole bunch more
in the tent and then some.Copy !req
46. - Hey, can I see them after the match?
- If you want.Copy !req
47. So which Pokémon are you gonna choose
for my 99th win?Copy !req
48. 99th? Hmm.Copy !req
49. I'm afraid you're going to have to change
your sign after this match.Copy !req
50. You'll be formerly undefeated.Copy !req
51. You may think that you're hot stuff, kid,Copy !req
52. but you're not playing in the Pokémon
little League anymore.Copy !req
53. After I win 100 matches in a row,
I'll start competing for badges.Copy !req
54. That means he's only two wins away.Copy !req
55. And he'll be extra psyched to win.Copy !req
56. 98 wins and you still don't have a badge?
That's tough luck, A.J.Copy !req
57. I have ten wins
and I've won two Pokémon badges.Copy !req
58. Did you buy those badges
or steal them?Copy !req
59. Either that or you competed
in some loser Gyms.Copy !req
60. Where were they,
Failure City or Wimpsville?Copy !req
61. What do you mean, loser Gyms?Copy !req
62. Hey, Ash! Pulverize this guy.Copy !req
63. Let's get started, then.
Sandshrew, go!Copy !req
64. A Sandshrew, huh?
This should be interesting.Copy !req
65. Let's be careful now, Ash.Copy !req
66. Remember,
Sandshrew is a Ground type,Copy !req
67. so Pikachu's electricity
is no good against it.Copy !req
68. I know exactly what I'm doing.
I don't need your help.Copy !req
69. Pidgeotto, I choose you!Copy !req
70. - Sandshrew, go.
- Pidgeotto, dive at it!Copy !req
71. Ash is lucky. The flying Pokémon
should have the advantage here.Copy !req
72. Too bad Sandshrew can't fly.Copy !req
73. - Pidgeotto!
- Finish it!Copy !req
74. Uh-oh!
Pidgeotto, return!Copy !req
75. Butterfree, I choose you!Copy !req
76. You can do it!
Flying versus ground should be no problem.Copy !req
77. That's what you think, kid.
Now watch and weep.Copy !req
78. Go! Stun Spore!Copy !req
79. Free?Copy !req
80. That Sandshrew is well-trained.Copy !req
81. He controls it with a crack of his whip
like a lion tamer.Copy !req
82. - Shrew!
- Free!Copy !req
83. - Butterfree!
- It's not so free anymore.Copy !req
84. Chu!Copy !req
85. Come on, Pikachu.
You've got to help your friends.Copy !req
86. Pikachu!Copy !req
87. Nice work.Copy !req
88. - That Sandshrew is very tempting.
- We should grab it.Copy !req
89. Hmm. Looks fat.
You two got to carry it.Copy !req
90. The outfit that trainer
is wearing is positively hideous.Copy !req
91. That shirt looks like
it's from a century or two ago.Copy !req
92. He'd fit right in perfectly at a museum.Copy !req
93. At least he doesn't look like
he's trick-or-treating like you do.Copy !req
94. - Unh!
- Meowth! Unh.Copy !req
95. And that makes victory number 99.Copy !req
96. It's not fair.
I'm the one with the badges.Copy !req
97. How about two out of three?Copy !req
98. Stop whining, kid.
Nobody wants to compete against a crybaby.Copy !req
99. Hey, there's something fishy here.Copy !req
100. I didn't have any problems winning
until I battled in your ring.Copy !req
101. How do I know this whole match
wasn't rigged?Copy !req
102. That's it. You cheated!Copy !req
103. How else could Sandshrew
defeat Butterfree?Copy !req
104. Flying Pokémon always have
the advantage over Ground Pokémon.Copy !req
105. Chill out.Copy !req
106. What do you say we go replay
the match someplace else, huh?Copy !req
107. Ash doesn't know when to quit, does he?Copy !req
108. That A.J. sure is strong. I don't get it.
How is he so good?Copy !req
109. One more chance.Copy !req
110. Come back when you grow up.Copy !req
111. Hmm. It's not fair.Copy !req
112. Looks like you'll have
to rethink the way you train.Copy !req
113. - What do you mean?
- You call that last match a fight?Copy !req
114. It's time
for some serious training.Copy !req
115. Rattata!Copy !req
116. Get back in the water!Copy !req
117. Knock it off!Copy !req
118. Now what do you want,
a swimming match?Copy !req
119. - You're hurting Sandshrew.
- Mind your own business.Copy !req
120. I don't need any amateurs teaching me
how to train Pokémon.Copy !req
121. You call that training?
What's that?Copy !req
122. - It looks like a straitjacket.
- That's no straitjacket.Copy !req
123. It's a strength intensifier.Copy !req
124. - Who invented that thing?
- I did.Copy !req
125. It's my own secret weapon
for unleashing a Pokémon's powers.Copy !req
126. Sandshrew, back in the pool!Copy !req
127. But Sandshrews are weakened by water.Copy !req
128. - I know that.
- You'll hurt it!Copy !req
129. Sandshrew, dive!Copy !req
130. Nice dive.Copy !req
131. - Good work.
- The water doesn't weaken your Sandshrew?Copy !req
132. You're looking at the only Sandshrew
in the worldCopy !req
133. that's strong enough
to withstand water.Copy !req
134. Sandshrew, pick up your pacing!Copy !req
135. Hey, wait.
I thought you said pacing, not passing.Copy !req
136. - Pikachu!
- Huh, I said padding.Copy !req
137. I mean, I said pacing!Copy !req
138. Why are you so tough on Sandshrew?Copy !req
139. I have to be tough,
but I ask no more of SandshrewCopy !req
140. than I do of myself,
the very best.Copy !req
141. But you aren't nearly as tough
on any of your other Pokémon.Copy !req
142. That's because Sandshrew
is the first Pokémon I ever caught.Copy !req
143. I will never forget that moment.Copy !req
144. We promised to do
whatever it took to becomeCopy !req
145. the greatest Pokémon
and trainer of all time.Copy !req
146. Nothing would stop us
from reaching our dream,Copy !req
147. no matter how difficult our path.Copy !req
148. Enduring fierce storms
and raging winds,Copy !req
149. we're sacrificed everything
to achieve our dream.Copy !req
150. And it was worth it.
We're an unbeatable team.Copy !req
151. What you're doing is wrong.Copy !req
152. A great trainer should make
friends with his Pokémon.Copy !req
153. Why should I listen to you?Copy !req
154. Hey, Brock, don't you have
anything to say about this?Copy !req
155. I do.
Your Pokémon are all in great shape.Copy !req
156. What kind of Pokémon food
do you give them?Copy !req
157. - Ah.
- My own recipe.Copy !req
158. Come on, I'll show you.Copy !req
159. To get the results I want, I have to
carefully monitor the Pokémon diets.Copy !req
160. - Of course, the recipe is secret.
- Oh, yeah, of course.Copy !req
161. You know, I mix my own food too.Copy !req
162. Pikachu!Copy !req
163. - Insulated gloves?
- Check.Copy !req
164. - Big rubber ball?
- Check, check, check-a-rooni.Copy !req
165. Team Rocket will do what it has to do...Copy !req
166. To snatch that little Pikachu.Copy !req
167. Maybe we should go back
to our old motto.Copy !req
168. This one doesn't feel right.Copy !req
169. Hey, how about
a theme-Meowth song?Copy !req
170. And I can even do a little dance solo.Copy !req
171. Everyone loves me-ooh-thic.Copy !req
172. A song's no good.Copy !req
173. A dance won't work.Copy !req
174. - Here's a line you'll like.
- And what's that?Copy !req
175. How about, choreography killed the cat?Copy !req
176. Okay, you wimps get a 15-minute break.Copy !req
177. - Hey!
- Now what do you want?Copy !req
178. Your Pokémon are totally wiped out.Copy !req
179. You better believe it.Copy !req
180. In this Gym, we live by the rule
no pain, no gain,Copy !req
181. but judging by your little stuffed Pikachu
over there, you don't follow any rules.Copy !req
182. It's not a stuffed Pikachu.
Take it back!Copy !req
183. Hey, did you hear me?
I said take it back!Copy !req
184. - Don't, Ash!Copy !req
185. You don't win badges for being buddy,
buddy with a Pokémon!Copy !req
186. Knock it off, you two!Copy !req
187. Isn't there a rule against
splashing in the pool?Copy !req
188. Pika, pika, chu...Copy !req
189. I'm getting dizzy.Copy !req
190. Stop complaining.
Look for Pikachu.Copy !req
191. - Roll over there.
- What's that?Copy !req
192. - Could it be Pikachu?
- Yeah, that's it. Now hurry!Copy !req
193. All that rolling made me nauseous.Copy !req
194. Got it.Copy !req
195. - Lets go.
- Hurry! I feel sick!Copy !req
196. - Watch where you're going!
- This way!Copy !req
197. Hey, take it easy.
Ah, my leg fell asleep.Copy !req
198. I wish your mouth would.Copy !req
199. Why do you keep hanging around here?Copy !req
200. There must be other trainers
you can bother.Copy !req
201. Yeah, right.Copy !req
202. Time's up.
Back to work, all of you!Copy !req
203. Hey, where's Sandshrew?
Well, that's weird.Copy !req
204. What's your Pikachu doing?Copy !req
205. Oh. Ohh!Copy !req
206. Pikachu.Copy !req
207. - It's no use.
- Here, give it to me.Copy !req
208. - Huh?
- Pikachu!Copy !req
209. Pikachu, you're okay.Copy !req
210. Pikachu, have you seen Sandshrew?Copy !req
211. - Pika.
- You haven't.Copy !req
212. Sandshrew!
Where are you?Copy !req
213. Maybe it ran away.Copy !req
214. What are you talking about?Copy !req
215. The way you treat your Pokémon,
I'm surprised they all haven't run away.Copy !req
216. Sandshrew and I have been together
for a long time.Copy !req
217. Yeah, I know, but when Sandshrew saw
how well Pikachu and I get along,Copy !req
218. it thought, I deserve better.Copy !req
219. I'll find a trainer who treats me
like Ash treats Pikachu?Copy !req
220. Sandshrew would not
break the promise we made,Copy !req
221. not after all we've been through,
not just before our 100th victory!Copy !req
222. Chu.Copy !req
223. Now move it.
Go find Sandshrew.Copy !req
224. - Free!
- Rattata!Copy !req
225. Those clowns
will never catch up with us.Copy !req
226. I'm exhausted.
You take the bag now.Copy !req
227. But a real gentleman
always carries the bag.Copy !req
228. Is that so?
Well, as you know, I'm no gentleman.Copy !req
229. You've all had enough of A.J.Copy !req
230. and the way he pushes you around,
haven't you?Copy !req
231. Well, you don't have to put up
with it anymore,Copy !req
232. because now you can come with me.Copy !req
233. Anyone who's coming with me,
raise your hand!Copy !req
234. Just raise your hand.
Get them up there.Copy !req
235. - Ash is making a fool of himself again.
- Mm.Copy !req
236. You see what happens when you try
to start a mutiny in my Gym?Copy !req
237. My Pokémon are all loyal.Copy !req
238. So then where's Sandshrew?Copy !req
239. - Meowth!Copy !req
240. Sandshrew.Copy !req
241. A.J. and all his Pokémon sure are happy
that Sandshrew is back.Copy !req
242. How could they possibly pick him over me?Copy !req
243. A.J. is tough, but as you can see,
he cares deeply for his Pokémon.Copy !req
244. Wow, A.J. does care about them.Copy !req
245. - Pika, pi, chu!
- What is it?Copy !req
246. Meowth!Copy !req
247. So then it must've been Team Rocket
that kidnapped Sandshrew.Copy !req
248. - Wake up.
- Meowth?Copy !req
249. Hey, where am I?
What's going on here?Copy !req
250. How am I gonna get out of this mess?Copy !req
251. - Prepare for trouble.
- Make that double.Copy !req
252. - Meowth?
- Ugh, Team Rocket.Copy !req
253. Use the old motto.Copy !req
254. To protect the world
from devastation...Copy !req
255. To unite all peoples
within our nation...Copy !req
256. To denounce the evils
of truth and love,Copy !req
257. to extend our reach
to the stars above...Copy !req
258. - Jessie.
- James.Copy !req
259. Team Rocket, blast off
at the speed of light!Copy !req
260. Surrender now or prepare to fight.Copy !req
261. Meowth! That's right!Copy !req
262. That felt great.
We don't need a theme song.Copy !req
263. It's a classic.Copy !req
264. So these are the creeps
who kidnapped my Sandshrew?Copy !req
265. Mm, that was an unfortunate mix-up.Copy !req
266. We have no interest
in your second-rate Sandshrew.Copy !req
267. Second-rate?Copy !req
268. The only Pokémon we want is Pikachu.Copy !req
269. You can keep all those other wimps.Copy !req
270. Wimps, are they?Copy !req
271. That's it! Huh?Copy !req
272. I'll take care of this.Copy !req
273. No one insults my Pokémon
and gets away with it.Copy !req
274. Let's step outside.Copy !req
275. Uh-oh.Copy !req
276. Team Rocket has insulted our Gym!Copy !req
277. We'll answer them with our 100th win.Copy !req
278. 100th.Copy !req
279. That's right.
As Sandshrew and I vowed.Copy !req
280. Good luck!Copy !req
281. Your small talk will cost you big-time!Copy !req
282. - Ekans, go!
- Your turn, Koffing!Copy !req
283. Ekans!Copy !req
284. Koffing!Copy !req
285. Sandshrew, go!Copy !req
286. - Koffing!
- Ekans!Copy !req
287. Ekans, bind it now!Copy !req
288. Ekans!Copy !req
289. - It's so strong.
- Good work!Copy !req
290. Excellent!Copy !req
291. Koffing, Sludge attack!Copy !req
292. Koffing!Copy !req
293. Meowth, don't just stand there.Copy !req
294. Stop pussyfooting around!Copy !req
295. Just biting my time.Copy !req
296. Ah! The moment of tooth!Copy !req
297. Finish it!
Sandshrew, Fissure Strike!Copy !req
298. Go, Sandshrew!
Drill into the ground till it splits!Copy !req
299. That's it! I forfeit the match!Copy !req
300. - Koffing!
- Ekans!Copy !req
301. - Come back here!
- Meowth, where are you going?Copy !req
302. To write us a theme song!Copy !req
303. Not that again! Ugh!Copy !req
304. We did it, Sandshrew!
We finally reached victory number 100!Copy !req
305. Today, all our sacrifices and hard work
have finally paid off!Copy !req
306. Now we can start winning our badges.Copy !req
307. When I return here, I'm gonna be
the number one Pokémon Master.Copy !req
308. Why don't you come along with us?Copy !req
309. Thanks, but Sandshrew and I
have our own path that we must follow.Copy !req
310. Someday we'll meet again
at the big Pokémon League competition.Copy !req
311. Okay, but next time,
you better be in shape,Copy !req
312. because I only want to beat
expert trainers.Copy !req
313. That's a deal.Copy !req
314. So long!Copy !req
315. He's tough, but pretty cool.Copy !req
316. Yeah, looks like
you've found another rival.Copy !req
317. A.J., I'm not going to lose next time!Copy !req
318. I'll train hard to become the greatest
Pokémon Master in the world,Copy !req
319. following my own path.Copy !req
320. There are many paths
that lead to the Pokémon LeagueCopy !req
321. and Ash is just beginning
to discover his own.Copy !req
322. What lies on that path is unknown,Copy !req
323. but one thing's for sure,Copy !req
324. he'll never forget the name of that place
with the great Gym again.Copy !req
325. A hundred and fifty Pokémon,
five days a week.Copy !req
326. That's about 30 or so each day.Copy !req
327. It's not too hard, just listen real good!Copy !req
328. Okay, so today was pretty easy,
But you gotta put all five days together.Copy !req
329. It's the only way to name all 150.
Catch you here tomorrow!Copy !req
