1. Hey! We're here!
Copy !req
2. After earning a soul badge
at the Fuchsia Gym,
Copy !req
3. our friends arrive at the Safari Zone,
Copy !req
4. where they're sure to discover
some new and unusual Pokémon.
Copy !req
5. - Hey, it feels like an earthquake!
- Look out! Over there!
Copy !req
6. Uh, what is it?
Copy !req
7. - Pika! Pi!
- Oh, man.
Copy !req
8. - What are those things?
- Pika!
Copy !req
9. Tauros. A wild bull Pokémon.
Copy !req
10. When whipping itself with its three tails,
Copy !req
11. its tackle is
a powerful destructive force.
Copy !req
12. Yes. Okay, Pikachu. Hmm? Huh?
Copy !req
13. Hey, Pikachu!
Copy !req
14. Nice time for a nap.
Copy !req
15. Don't you think
Pikachu's outnumbered here?
Copy !req
16. I know that.
Charmander, I choose you!
Copy !req
17. - Char!
- Ember attack now!
Copy !req
18. Char!
Copy !req
19. What's that thing?
Copy !req
20. Growlithe. A puppy Pokémon
of pleasant demeanor and great diligence.
Copy !req
21. It drives enemies away
with barks and bites.
Copy !req
22. Growlithe?
Copy !req
23. All right, Charmander,
flamethrower attack!
Copy !req
24. Char! Char!
Copy !req
25. So it's a fire type too.
Copy !req
26. Charmander, return!
Copy !req
27. Maybe Squirtle.
Copy !req
28. - Hold it!
Copy !req
29. Whoa!
Copy !req
30. - Hey, what are you doing?
- You little sidewinder,
Copy !req
31. don't tell me you don't know
this whole area is a Pokémon reserve.
Copy !req
32. - A Pokémon preserve?
- Yes.
Copy !req
33. What's that?
Copy !req
34. It's a place where it's against the law
to capture Pokémon
Copy !req
35. so they can grow up here naturally.
Copy !req
36. That's amazing.
Copy !req
37. You grew up right pretty yourself, miss.
Copy !req
38. What's the name of this here place?
Copy !req
39. Have you ever heard
of the Big P. Pokémon Ranch
Copy !req
40. that's owned by the Laramie family?
Copy !req
41. Isn't that the place where they raise
lots of Pokémon in the wild?
Copy !req
42. Hey! This must be that place.
Copy !req
43. This is the Laramie Big P. Ranch,
and I'm Lara Laramie.
Copy !req
44. Growlithe!
Copy !req
45. And this Growlithe makes sure
nobody tries to capture our Pokémon.
Copy !req
46. Oh.
- Pikachu.
Copy !req
47. Ponyta. A fire horse Pokémon.
Copy !req
48. Its mane is made of intense flames.
Copy !req
49. - Whoa.
- Pika.
Copy !req
50. - Isn't it real hot?
- I don't need to worry
Copy !req
51. because Ponyta will never,
ever burn anybody it really trusts.
Copy !req
52. Hmm.
Copy !req
53. Nice Ponyta.
Copy !req
54. It took a while for Ponyta
to trust me too.
Copy !req
55. Just training one Pokémon's a big job,
but a whole herd must be really tough.
Copy !req
56. Breeders love Pokémon
from the Laramie ranch.
Copy !req
57. Because they're raised in the wild,
Copy !req
58. and they're a little stronger
than other Pokémon.
Copy !req
59. You're lucky if you get a Big P. Pokémon.
Copy !req
60. I'm real glad some folks know
about all the hard work we do.
Copy !req
61. We're real proud of the way
we raise our Pokémon here.
Copy !req
62. I'd love to see more of this place.
Copy !req
63. Well, we're having our big party here
tonight.
Copy !req
64. - Why don't you all come as my guests?
- A party? That sounds great!
Copy !req
65. Pika! Pika!
Copy !req
66. And if you stay here at the ranch tonight,
Copy !req
67. you'll be able to see
the big Pokémon race tomorrow.
Copy !req
68. A Pokémon race?
Copy !req
69. We race one another
to find out who's got the best Pokémon.
Copy !req
70. Anybody who wins the Big P. Pokémon race
Copy !req
71. becomes an honorary member
of the Laramie clan.
Copy !req
72. - Huh?
Copy !req
73. The Tauros again?
Copy !req
74. No. That sound could only be...
Copy !req
75. - Oh, man. They move fast!
- Howdy, Lara.
Copy !req
76. Dodrio. A three-headed bird Pokémon
Copy !req
77. that can run faster than it can fly.
Copy !req
78. Its three heads represent
joy, sorrow and anger.
Copy !req
79. We're going to win
the Pokémon race tomorrow.
Copy !req
80. Don't be too sure, pardner.
Copy !req
81. It takes more than just speed
to win the race.
Copy !req
82. Just get ready to lose, Lara.
Yee-hee!
Copy !req
83. What a jerk! Who is that guy?
Copy !req
84. He's Dario, a Dodrio trainer.
Copy !req
85. And we'll see what kind of guy he is.
Copy !req
86. Hey, Lara, good luck in the race tomorrow.
Copy !req
87. - We're all going to be rooting for you.
- Thank you kindly.
Copy !req
88. Your Ponyta's great.
- Thank you, ma'am.
Copy !req
89. - [man 1] Good luck, Lara!
- Appreciate it.
Copy !req
90. [man 2] Go for it, girl!
Copy !req
91. She must be a real contender in that race.
Copy !req
92. Well, she sure has done a great job
training that Ponyta of hers.
Copy !req
93. We're really lucky to have run into such
an incredible Pokémon breeder, aren't we?
Copy !req
94. Hey, Lara!
Copy !req
95. All of your Tauros are going crazy
back at the ranch.
Copy !req
96. Huh?
Copy !req
97. Hyah!
Copy !req
98. - Let's go!
Copy !req
99. Hey. What...?
Copy !req
100. Growlithe,
get in there and settle them down.
Copy !req
101. Growlithe.
Copy !req
102. Growlithe. Growlithe. Growlithe.
Copy !req
103. Hmm. What's that?
Copy !req
104. Lara! Ponyta!
Copy !req
105. - Lara.
- I think I'm okay.
Copy !req
106. Don't move that arm!
Copy !req
107. Whoa, Ponyta! Settle down!
Copy !req
108. Come on. Settle down.
Calm down, Ponyta!
Copy !req
109. I wonder what happened
to spook all the Pokémon.
Copy !req
110. He's good.
Copy !req
111. - Pretty nice work.
- Even better than we planned it.
Copy !req
112. I have got a very good feeling
about this one.
Copy !req
113. Good work.
- Huh?
Copy !req
114. I wouldn't expect anything less
from Team Rocket.
Copy !req
115. - Meowth.
- We're just here
Copy !req
116. to do the best job possible
so we can all get just what we want.
Copy !req
117. Once Team Rocket gets in
with the Laramie clan,
Copy !req
118. we'll make big bucks.
Copy !req
119. We're going to get rich
and rule the world!
Copy !req
120. We're going to make sure
that you win that race, Dario.
Copy !req
121. Uh-huh. If I get what I want,
you get what you want.
Copy !req
122. Right, pardner.
Copy !req
123. With my arm like this,
I can't grip Ponyta's reins,
Copy !req
124. so I won't be able to race tomorrow.
Copy !req
125. Too bad for the Laramie clan.
Copy !req
126. Hold on.
Ash, you could ride Ponyta for me.
Copy !req
127. Huh?
Copy !req
128. I can't do it.
Ponyta will burn any rider except you.
Copy !req
129. I'm sure you could do it.
Copy !req
130. When I saw you trying so hard
to pet Ponyta,
Copy !req
131. I knew you could, Ash.
Please give it a try.
Copy !req
132. Yeah, but...
Copy !req
133. Give it a try.
Copy !req
134. - We'll help you in every way we can.
- Pika. Pikachu.
Copy !req
135. Well, in that case I'll do it.
Copy !req
136. Looks like we're partners, Ponyta.
Copy !req
137. - I guess Ponyta's not too cool with this.
- Pika.
Copy !req
138. - Ponyta!
Copy !req
139. Ponyta,
if you win the race with a new rider,
Copy !req
140. it'll prove how great you really are.
Copy !req
141. Everybody'll know
that you're the best of all.
Copy !req
142. And that is the best praise for me.
Copy !req
143. Won't you please let Ash
ride you tomorrow?
Copy !req
144. Remember, Ponyta.
Copy !req
145. Hey, it's not hot.
Copy !req
146. I did it. Yeah!
Copy !req
147. Oh!
Copy !req
148. - At least he's hanging in there.
- Pika.
Copy !req
149. Welcome, ladies and gentlemen,
to this year's Pokémon challenge,
Copy !req
150. sponsored by the Laramie clan.
Copy !req
151. Our course takes our challengers
over rugged terrain
Copy !req
152. to test their speed and ability.
Copy !req
153. Whoever clears all the obstacles
and crosses the finish line first
Copy !req
154. is our winner.
Copy !req
155. Will the Pokémon and trainers
please come to the starting line now?
Copy !req
156. - Good luck, guys!
- Huh?
Copy !req
157. Ready to race, Ponyta?
Copy !req
158. - Hey!
- They're going to burn up the track!
Copy !req
159. Ready...
Copy !req
160. Go!
Copy !req
161. And they're off
on this exciting Pokémon challenge race.
Copy !req
162. When the dust settles,
we'll be able to see
Copy !req
163. who's in the early lead.
Copy !req
164. - Squirtle!
- Pika!
Copy !req
165. Now the contestants have left the stadium
Copy !req
166. and are on the first part
of the obstacle course.
Copy !req
167. - Yee-ha!
- Pika, pika! Pi.
Copy !req
168. And Dario riding Dodrio
has pulled away from the pack.
Copy !req
169. If he keeps up this blistering pace,
he'll be unstoppable.
Copy !req
170. You can beat him, Ash.
Copy !req
171. And something has happened to the Tauros.
Copy !req
172. It's acting like this is a rodeo.
Copy !req
173. Whoa! And now Nidorina is fighting mad
after getting bumped by Tauros.
Copy !req
174. They're ignoring their trainers
and starting to battle.
Copy !req
175. These Pokémon could use
some strict training.
Copy !req
176. They look like they're out of this race.
Copy !req
177. - I got a bull's-eye!
- Or close to it.
Copy !req
178. The next obstacle
is a 45-degree uphill climb,
Copy !req
179. a test of endurance
for the Pokémon and their trainers,
Copy !req
180. and Dario still holds the lead.
Copy !req
181. Come on, Ponyta!
Copy !req
182. Squirtle. Squirtle.
Copy !req
183. Bringing up the rear
are Pikachu and Squirtle,
Copy !req
184. but slow and steady may not be enough
to win this race.
Copy !req
185. Whoa! Who is that
barreling down the steep slope?
Copy !req
186. - What?
- He's fast!
Copy !req
187. That's Electrode
using its perfectly round body
Copy !req
188. to gain speed
and take the lead on the downhill.
Copy !req
189. Oh, and it's another accident!
Copy !req
190. Electrode has fallen into a hole,
and Dodrio once again takes over the lead.
Copy !req
191. Oh, no!
Electrode's voltage level is too high!
Copy !req
192. - Ah!
- Ash!
Copy !req
193. What a shock!
Copy !req
194. Electrode's most powerful attack:
explosion.
Copy !req
195. It's destroyed everything around.
Copy !req
196. Electrode's living up
to its bomb ball nickname.
Copy !req
197. Another one bites the dust.
Copy !req
198. - Pikachu.
Copy !req
199. - Pikachu!
Copy !req
200. - Oh, no!
Copy !req
201. They're back up!
Copy !req
202. Ponyta and Lara's replacement, Ash,
are showing that they've really got guts.
Copy !req
203. All right.
Copy !req
204. Now one of the most difficult
sections of the course.
Copy !req
205. The Pokémon have to jump
Copy !req
206. from one stone to the next
to cross the river.
Copy !req
207. Go! Go, Dodrio!
Copy !req
208. Ah!
Copy !req
209. That's okay. We tried.
Copy !req
210. Ah! Too bad, folks.
Copy !req
211. Rock Pokémon can't deal with water,
so Onyx is out of here.
Copy !req
212. Pika!
Copy !req
213. And looks like surf's up for Pikachu.
Copy !req
214. Squirtle and Starmie are performing
like true-blue water Pokémon.
Copy !req
215. - I'll keep on going, Brock!
- Pikachu.
Copy !req
216. Ponyta's a great jumper
and crossing beautifully,
Copy !req
217. with no fear of the water.
It could make a comeback!
Copy !req
218. Faster! Faster! Faster!
Copy !req
219. That's it. You can do it, Ash.
Copy !req
220. Now to boost their energy,
each Pokémon can resume the race
Copy !req
221. only after eating an entire bowl of food.
Copy !req
222. The Pokémon decide which bowl to eat.
Copy !req
223. Ah! Oh, quit fighting!
Copy !req
224. You'll all get your fair share.
Copy !req
225. It looks like each one
of Dodrio's three heads
Copy !req
226. wants to eat first,
and a fight's broken out!
Copy !req
227. The fastest runner
is losing valuable time here
Copy !req
228. as Starmie, Squirtle and Ponyta
appear on the scene.
Copy !req
229. Okay, Ponyta, time for some fast food.
Copy !req
230. All right, Team Rocket,
time to go to work!
Copy !req
231. Ah!
Copy !req
232. We've got a major problem here, folks.
Copy !req
233. Black smoke is blowing over the course.
Copy !req
234. I hope our camera crew
can get our picture back soon
Copy !req
235. and show us if there's been
another accident out there.
Copy !req
236. Ponyta.
Copy !req
237. Prepare for trouble.
Copy !req
238. Make it double.
Copy !req
239. It's Team Rocket.
Copy !req
240. To protect the world from devastation.
Copy !req
241. To unite all peoples within our nation.
Copy !req
242. To denounce the evils of truth and love
Copy !req
243. To extend our reach to the stars above.
Copy !req
244. - Jessie.
- James.
Copy !req
245. Team Rocket,
blast off at the speed of light.
Copy !req
246. Surrender now or prepare to fight.
Copy !req
247. Meowth! That's right!
Copy !req
248. We don't have time
to play around with you three stooges!
Copy !req
249. How dare compare us to the...
Copy !req
250. I mean, come on up.
I'd like to have a word with you.
Copy !req
251. Yes, come on up
and bring your Ponyta with you.
Copy !req
252. Then I can mess you up again.
Copy !req
253. "Mess you up again?"
So it was Team Rocket!
Copy !req
254. It was you who broke Lara's arm.
Copy !req
255. - It was such a sad accident.
- We couldn't sleep after it happened.
Copy !req
256. Save your tears!
Copy !req
257. Pikachu, Squirtle, get ready to rumble!
Copy !req
258. Squirtle!
Copy !req
259. This race is over for you, losers.
Copy !req
260. Arbok, glare attack!
Copy !req
261. - Squirtle!
- Pika!
Copy !req
262. Let's go, Starmie!
Copy !req
263. Weezing, sludge attack now!
Copy !req
264. You okay, Starmie?
Copy !req
265. - I think we're winning.
- I think you're right.
Copy !req
266. Whoa! Settle down, Ponyta.
Copy !req
267. Hey, calm down!
Copy !req
268. Dario. Now's your chance.
Copy !req
269. Thanks, Jessie! Go, Dodrio.
Copy !req
270. Team Rocket's working for Dario.
Copy !req
271. Ash! Forget about them.
Copy !req
272. You have to win this race
for Lara Laramie.
Copy !req
273. Go catch up with Dario,
and we'll take care of Team Rocket.
Copy !req
274. - But... But I...
- Pika!
Copy !req
275. Stop Ponyta with your poison sting.
Copy !req
276. - Ar!
- Ah!
Copy !req
277. Arbok!
Copy !req
278. Oh, no! Don't use the gas.
Copy !req
279. Things seemed to be going so well for us
this time.
Copy !req
280. Maybe we'll have better luck next time.
Copy !req
281. Now we're blasting off again!
Copy !req
282. Yes. Now we've got our picture
back and Dodrio is still in the lead!
Copy !req
283. Now let's take a look at what happened to
the other Pokémon and I can't see any...
Copy !req
284. Wait. Who's that?
Copy !req
285. It's a giant burning flame!
Copy !req
286. Faster, Ponyta. We're way behind!
Copy !req
287. It's Ponyta!
I don't know how it happened,
Copy !req
288. but it looks like this has become
a two Pokémon race
Copy !req
289. between Dodrio and Ponyta,
Copy !req
290. with nothing left but a flat-out run
to the finish line.
Copy !req
291. And Dodrio has entered the stadium,
still in the lead!
Copy !req
292. I'm going to win this one!
Copy !req
293. Huh? How'd he get so close?
Copy !req
294. Now Ponyta's closing in on Dodrio.
Copy !req
295. Okay, Ponyta, let's beat him.
Copy !req
296. Now, these two powerful Pokémon
Copy !req
297. are trading the lead.
Copy !req
298. Do it, Dodrio.
Copy !req
299. Ah!
Copy !req
300. Something's happened.
Ponyta is falling behind.
Copy !req
301. That was a cheap shot, Dario!
Copy !req
302. I do what I have to to win.
Copy !req
303. Dodrio is closing in on the finish line!
Copy !req
304. - Ponyta just—
- Evolved into Rapidash.
Copy !req
305. Fans, this is incredible!
Copy !req
306. Ponyta has evolved into Rapidash,
Copy !req
307. the fastest sprinter
in the world of Pokémon.
Copy !req
308. I can't believe it.
Copy !req
309. Here comes Rapidash,
Copy !req
310. who has a top speed
of over 100 mile an hour!
Copy !req
311. And Rapidash has caught up!
Copy !req
312. They're neck and neck
heading for the finish line.
Copy !req
313. Come on, Dodrio!
Copy !req
314. Rapidash!
Copy !req
315. It's down to the wire!
Copy !req
316. An incredible upset!
Copy !req
317. Rapidash makes an amazing comeback
to win this Pokémon challenge!
Copy !req
318. - Way to go, Rapidash!
- You cheater!
Copy !req
319. You interfered with me!
Copy !req
320. - You're the one who attacked me.
- I'll show you.
Copy !req
321. Go get them!
Copy !req
322. Huh? Oh!
Copy !req
323. Congratulations, Ponyta...
I mean, Rapidash!
Copy !req
324. You are this year's
Pokémon challenge champion.
Copy !req
325. Let's give a big hand for its trainer,
Lara Laramie,
Copy !req
326. and for the winning rider, Ash Ketchum!
Copy !req
327. - Yeah!
Copy !req
328. Squirtle.
Copy !req
329. - Hey, congratulations, Lara.
- Thank you, Ash.
Copy !req
330. You proved yourself
to be a fantastic Pokémon trainer.
Copy !req
331. Isn't that right, Rapidash?
Copy !req
332. Aw, shucks, Rapidash!
Copy !req
333. If you're looking to capture Pokémon,
Copy !req
334. the Safari Zone just ahead
should be perfect.
Copy !req
335. The Safari Zone? That's the place for me.
Copy !req
336. Thanks again, Ash. You did a great job.
Copy !req
337. I'm sure you'll be a Pokémon master.
Copy !req
338. Thanks, Lara, I'm much obliged.
Copy !req
339. As our heroes say goodbye
to their new friend
Copy !req
340. at the Laramie Pokémon ranch,
Copy !req
341. they're headed for new adventures
in the Safari Zone.
Copy !req
342. You're the reason I didn't win
the Pokémon challenge.
Copy !req
343. Team Rocket's the worst.
Copy !req
344. We'll just have to plan better next year.
Copy !req
345. And maybe you can get yourself
some nicer riding clothes.
Copy !req
346. And give that smelly bird a bath.
Copy !req
347. James! Stop this crazy thing!
Copy !req
348. It's that time again.
Copy !req
349. A hundred and fifty Pokémon
five days a week.
Copy !req
350. That's about 30 or so each day.
Copy !req
351. It's not too hard,
just listen real good.
Copy !req
352. Okay, so today was pretty easy.
Copy !req
353. But you gotta put
All five days together.
Copy !req
354. It's the only way to name all 150.
Copy !req
355. Catch you here tomorrow.
Copy !req
