1. As our heroes continue their journey,
Copy !req
2. the future looks sunny and bright.
Copy !req
3. Uh-oh.
Copy !req
4. Pika?
Copy !req
5. Huh?
- A storm?
Copy !req
6. Let's get out of this.
Copy !req
7. Where can we go?
We're in the middle of nowhere.
Copy !req
8. - Huh?
- What's that?
Copy !req
9. I don't like the looks of it.
Copy !req
10. Well, this is no time to be picky.
Copy !req
11. Pika.
Copy !req
12. - Pi.
Copy !req
13. Hello! Sorry for barging in!
Copy !req
14. Is anybody here?
Copy !req
15. - It looks like some kind of theater.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
16. Hey, since nobody's around,
we might as well stay till the rain stops.
Copy !req
17. - Uh-huh.
- Pikachu.
Copy !req
18. Huh?
Copy !req
19. Where'd that other Pikachu come from?
Copy !req
20. Pika. Pi, pi.
Copy !req
21. How cute.
Copy !req
22. Hi, there.
Copy !req
23. Ooh.
Copy !req
24. What is this? What's wrong with it?
Copy !req
25. - What's your problem?
- That Pikachu doesn't look right.
Copy !req
26. Huh?
- Pikachu.
Copy !req
27. - Could be a new kind of Pikachu.
- A new kind?
Copy !req
28. All right.
Then I'll just have to capture it.
Copy !req
29. Pikachu, thunder shock!
Copy !req
30. Pikachu!
Copy !req
31. Go, Poké Ball!
Copy !req
32. Hey! Huh?
Copy !req
33. Hey, Ash,
that guy is dressed just like you.
Copy !req
34. Hmm. Except it's a girl.
Copy !req
35. - How can you tell?
- Men's intuition.
Copy !req
36. - Huh?
- Who are you?
Copy !req
37. - Tell me who you are.
- I'm Ash Ketchum from Pallet Town.
Copy !req
38. Duplica, from the House of Imitay.
Copy !req
39. Imitay? Like imitate?
Is that why you look just like me?
Copy !req
40. That's right.
Copy !req
41. You're right, Brock. She is a girl.
Copy !req
42. Hmm, but she may be a little young for me.
Copy !req
43. You're sad.
Copy !req
44. Aw. It still hasn't gotten over
that old habit.
Copy !req
45. Ditto.
Copy !req
46. Ditto. A transform Pokémon.
Copy !req
47. It is able to rearrange the cells
of its body and assume any form.
Copy !req
48. Its only attack is transform.
Copy !req
49. - Squishy.
Copy !req
50. And Ditto can make itself look
just like anything.
Copy !req
51. Hmm.
Yeah, but it's face stayed the same.
Copy !req
52. When it transforms,
shouldn't it be able to change completely?
Copy !req
53. Yeah, it still can't change its face.
Copy !req
54. But it's the only Pokémon
that can transform like that, right?
Copy !req
55. Or are there others?
Copy !req
56. Nope. Ditto's one of a kind.
Copy !req
57. A transforming Pokémon.
Copy !req
58. It's only attack is to copy other Pokémon.
That's all it does.
Copy !req
59. Isn't that enough?
Copy !req
60. Yeah, but you can't have the fun
of teaching it different attacks.
Copy !req
61. That is kind of boring.
Copy !req
62. You think that's boring? Ha!
Copy !req
63. Well, that's what everyone says
who doesn't understand Ditto's real power.
Copy !req
64. - Its real power?
- Let's have a little match.
Copy !req
65. Then you'll understand, Ashy-boy.
Copy !req
66. Ashy-boy?
Copy !req
67. Ditto's power. Let's just see.
Copy !req
68. Mm-hm.
Copy !req
69. I chose to use my Ditto, of course.
Copy !req
70. You choose what you want.
Copy !req
71. Bulbasaur, I choose you!
Copy !req
72. Bulbasaur.
Copy !req
73. Go, little Ditto. Transform!
Copy !req
74. Ditto!
Copy !req
75. - Bulbasaur.
- Bulba.
Copy !req
76. You'll have to be better than that.
Copy !req
77. Uh-uh-uh.
You haven't seen the best part yet.
Copy !req
78. I'll show her.
Copy !req
79. Bulbasaur. Razor leaf.
Copy !req
80. Bulbasaur. Bulbasaur.
Copy !req
81. Ditto. Vine whip.
Copy !req
82. Bulbasaur.
Copy !req
83. Bulbasaur.
Copy !req
84. - It can imitate attacks, too?
Copy !req
85. All right. Ditto, restrain Bulbasaur.
Copy !req
86. - Ah!
- No!
Copy !req
87. Have you had enough yet, Ashy-boy?
Copy !req
88. - Bulbasaur.
- Oh!
Copy !req
89. All right, I understand. I give up.
Copy !req
90. Ah!
Copy !req
91. - Ditto.
Ah!
Copy !req
92. But how...
How could the real thing lose?
Copy !req
93. Wow. What are all these clothes for?
Copy !req
94. Don't worry. I'll take good care of it.
Copy !req
95. My name is Jenny.
You're under arrest for Pokémon poaching.
Copy !req
96. Great imitations.
Copy !req
97. Very good, but she doesn't capture
the more adult charm
Copy !req
98. of the real Joy and Jenny.
Copy !req
99. With all these costumes,
I can imitate just about anybody.
Copy !req
100. Watch.
Copy !req
101. - She's me.
Copy !req
102. Don't be so down, Ash.
That Ditto's powers are unbeatable.
Copy !req
103. Pika, pika!
Copy !req
104. Better than the real Pokémon.
Copy !req
105. I just can't believe I lost the match
to a great big fake.
Copy !req
106. Oh, Ash, don't think of it as a fake.
Copy !req
107. Ditto was battling you as real Bulbasaur.
Copy !req
108. I'm even more impressed
by how much knowledge Duplica has.
Copy !req
109. - Knowledge?
- Well, think about it.
Copy !req
110. Bulbasaur!
Copy !req
111. Why do you think Duplica had Ditto
use vine whip
Copy !req
112. instead of razor leaf
against your Bulbasaur?
Copy !req
113. Duplica must know all Bulbasaur's
potential attacks.
Copy !req
114. She can order Ditto
to use the strongest attack possible,
Copy !req
115. according to whatever Pokémon form
it takes.
Copy !req
116. That's right.
Copy !req
117. I guess that means Duplica must know
every attack of every Pokémon there is.
Copy !req
118. You must have studied a lot, Duplica,
Copy !req
119. to be able to battle in any situation
like that.
Copy !req
120. Oh, stop it, Brock.
You're making me blush.
Copy !req
121. - Pika.
Ditto.
Copy !req
122. I get it. It's more than just imitation.
Copy !req
123. It looks like you've got another rival,
Ash.
Copy !req
124. Duplica would make
a great Pokémon master.
Copy !req
125. - No way.
- Huh?
Copy !req
126. I just want to become
the greatest Ditto master.
Copy !req
127. A Ditto master?
Copy !req
128. You got it.
And I want to be a big star.
Copy !req
129. Thank you. Thank you.
Copy !req
130. I'm the amazing Duplica,
Copy !req
131. - and this is my assistant, Ditto.
- Ditto!
Copy !req
132. And now for my first imitation,
my impression of...
Copy !req
133. A Gloom.
Copy !req
134. Now that we have your attention,
I'd like to do some of my favorites.
Copy !req
135. You see, I started this Imitay House
because I like to imitate Pokémon.
Copy !req
136. This place is so flat and boring,
but people pass by here all the time.
Copy !req
137. I thought maybe when they stop here
for a rest, I could entertain them.
Copy !req
138. Now it's time for my assistant Ditto.
Copy !req
139. Will the Machoke in the front row
please come up onto the stage?
Copy !req
140. Machoke.
Copy !req
141. - Okay, Ditto, transform.
- Ditto.
Copy !req
142. - Machoke.
- Hey.
Copy !req
143. - That face.
- It's all wrong.
Copy !req
144. What's going on?
It shouldn't look like that.
Copy !req
145. The only trouble is Ditto hasn't been able
to fix this weird problem
Copy !req
146. that keeps its face
from transforming the right way.
Copy !req
147. Thank you very much, Machoke,
for being a good sport.
Copy !req
148. Now how about this Voltorb?
Would you mind coming up to the stage?
Copy !req
149. - Voltorb.
- Okay, Ditto.
Copy !req
150. Transform!
Copy !req
151. Voltorb.
Copy !req
152. It's still got that dumb face.
Copy !req
153. That's so...
You can tell them apart!
Copy !req
154. What a fake! It can't transform at all.
Copy !req
155. Ditto!
Copy !req
156. And that's what happens.
Copy !req
157. When people watch Ditto,
Copy !req
158. they don't want to see
an imperfect transformation.
Copy !req
159. This little one is trying its hardest
to master transform perfectly,
Copy !req
160. but its face stays the same.
Copy !req
161. Ditto.
Copy !req
162. - I guess being a Ditto trainer's tough.
Huh?
Copy !req
163. That was a touching story.
Copy !req
164. What? Who are you?
Copy !req
165. Prepare for trouble.
Copy !req
166. Make it double.
Copy !req
167. To protect the world from devastation...
Copy !req
168. To unite all peoples within our nation...
Copy !req
169. To denounce the evils of truth and love...
Copy !req
170. To extend our reach to the stars above...
Copy !req
171. - Jessie.
- James.
Copy !req
172. Team Rocket,
blast off at the speed of light.
Copy !req
173. Surrender now or prepare to fight.
Copy !req
174. Meowth. That's right.
Let's give them a hand.
Copy !req
175. Okay. Show's over. Time to go back home.
Copy !req
176. Quiet, young twerp.
You'll be happy to know
Copy !req
177. we're not interested
in your Pikachu today.
Copy !req
178. We're here for...
Copy !req
179. The Ditto.
Copy !req
180. - Ditto!
- Stop!
Copy !req
181. Time for action, Weezing.
Copy !req
182. Weezing.
Copy !req
183. Oh, no, my Ditto's gone!
Copy !req
184. Team Rocket.
What are they up to this time?
Copy !req
185. Cute little Ditto. Our little Ditto.
Copy !req
186. Why didn't we think of this before?
Now we're unstoppable.
Copy !req
187. Right. Now we can take our names
off the loser list
Copy !req
188. and put them in the winning column.
Copy !req
189. And the boss will make me top cat again.
Copy !req
190. All right, little Ditto,
we have a little favor to ask you.
Copy !req
191. Ditto?
Copy !req
192. Transform into this.
Copy !req
193. Won't you, please?
Please? Pretty please?
Copy !req
194. Become Dratini, the Pokémon
we've never been able to capture.
Copy !req
195. It would make a handsome gift
for the boss.
Copy !req
196. Sir, we've finally captured Dratini,
that legendary Pokémon.
Copy !req
197. Yes. Well done.
Copy !req
198. I will reward you lavishly
for your hard work.
Copy !req
199. From now on, you will take my place
as the head of Team Rocket.
Copy !req
200. Your wish is my command.
Copy !req
201. Let's do it. Let's make it change
right this second, Jessie.
Copy !req
202. - What's the hurry?
- Hmm?
Copy !req
203. Since Ditto is ours for the moment,
Copy !req
204. let's have some fun
before we hand it over to the boss.
Copy !req
205. - Some fun?
- Ditto.
Copy !req
206. What would the person in this picture
look like if he were an adult?
Copy !req
207. - Ditto?
- Transform and show me.
Copy !req
208. Whose picture is that? Let me see.
Copy !req
209. - No way. This is personal. James, stop it.
- Let me see.
Copy !req
210. Let's see.
Copy !req
211. Ha! It's a little boy.
Copy !req
212. Ooh! Jessie has a boyfriend?
Copy !req
213. He was my first true love.
Copy !req
214. - First love?
- Show me?
Copy !req
215. Ditto.
Copy !req
216. - Huh?
Copy !req
217. Your first love
sure has an interesting face.
Copy !req
218. Especially if you're interested in Ditto.
Copy !req
219. That wasn't funny.
Copy !req
220. Is that your idea of a transformation?
Copy !req
221. - Ditto.
- Huh?
Copy !req
222. Now do as I say!
Copy !req
223. Transform into this.
Copy !req
224. - Ditto.
Copy !req
225. I'm beginning to see a flaw in this plan.
Copy !req
226. How dare you insult us like this!
Copy !req
227. I'm warning you,
you'd better transform perfectly this time
Copy !req
228. or I'll transform you into jelly.
Copy !req
229. Ditto.
Copy !req
230. Don't worry, Duplica. Cheer up.
Copy !req
231. We'll all help you find Ditto.
Copy !req
232. We've already sent Pidgeotto and Zubat
out on surveillance.
Copy !req
233. There you go. See?
Copy !req
234. Yeah. Thanks, you guys.
Copy !req
235. Hey, Ash. What's on your mind?
Copy !req
236. Well, it's just Ditto's transform.
Copy !req
237. You can't forget how important
the trainer's ability is too.
Copy !req
238. It's not the Pokémon
but the trainer who decides
Copy !req
239. which attack to use in a battle, right?
Copy !req
240. And that means that if you raise a Ditto,
Copy !req
241. its progress and power
are connected directly to your own.
Copy !req
242. Yeah. I think you're definitely right
about that, Ash.
Copy !req
243. Sounds like you've been studying, Ash.
Copy !req
244. - Pika, pika?
Copy !req
245. - Pikachu, did they see Ditto anywhere?
- Pika!
Copy !req
246. - Let's go save Ditto.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
247. Wait.
Huh?
Copy !req
248. I think I have an idea.
Copy !req
249. What's wrong with you?
Why can't you get it right?
Copy !req
250. I don't have a goofy face like that.
Copy !req
251. Get it right this time, Ditto,
or you'll regret it.
Copy !req
252. - That's right.
Ditto. Ditto.
Copy !req
253. - Oh!
- Success.
Copy !req
254. You really can do it if you try.
Great job, Ditto.
Copy !req
255. Now how about a Dratini?
Copy !req
256. - Sorry, Meowth.
Huh?
Copy !req
257. - Hey!
Huh?
Copy !req
258. Prepare for trouble.
Copy !req
259. And make it "double" double.
Copy !req
260. Quit imitating us.
Copy !req
261. To protect the world from devastation...
Copy !req
262. To ignite all peoples within our nation...
Copy !req
263. This is insulting.
Copy !req
264. To denounce the evils of truth and love...
Copy !req
265. To extend our reach to the stars above...
Copy !req
266. - Ash.
- Misty.
Copy !req
267. And Brock.
Copy !req
268. Duplica. That's right.
Copy !req
269. Team Rocket,
blast off at the speed of light.
Copy !req
270. Surrender now
or prepare to fight all of us.
Copy !req
271. Pika, pika.
Copy !req
272. That was great to do the whole thing.
Copy !req
273. Now I know why they like saying
all that dumb stuff so much. It's fun.
Copy !req
274. Hey, I know,
maybe we should all become actors.
Copy !req
275. - Pika, pika.
Copy !req
276. Team Rocket is not something
to be made fun of,
Copy !req
277. but if you're going to imitate us,
at least do it right.
Copy !req
278. To unite all peoples within our nation.
Not ignite.
Copy !req
279. We'll be taking Ditto back now.
Copy !req
280. No way.
Copy !req
281. No way.
Copy !req
282. Hey, I can't tell which one is which.
Copy !req
283. But I thought
that Ditto couldn't imitate faces.
Copy !req
284. That's true,
but Ditto was finally perfected
Copy !req
285. under the expert care and training
of Team Rocket.
Copy !req
286. Oh, thank you.
Huh?
Copy !req
287. I've tried everything I could think of
to get Ditto to imitate faces.
Copy !req
288. Now Ditto can finally become
the kind of Pokémon
Copy !req
289. I always knew it could be.
Copy !req
290. Duplica.
Copy !req
291. - That's beautiful.
- Yeah.
Copy !req
292. - That's so beautiful I can't stand it.
Neither can I.
Copy !req
293. Hey, you guys, why don't we just
solve this without a big battle?
Copy !req
294. All right. We'll do it your way this time.
Copy !req
295. We'll just give you Ditto.
Copy !req
296. Hey. What are you doing?
Copy !req
297. We'll be on our way now.
Copy !req
298. - Goodbye, everyone.
- Good luck with Ditto.
Copy !req
299. - Hold it right there!
Copy !req
300. Hey, Duplica, what are you doing?
Copy !req
301. - This isn't Ditto.
- Huh?
Copy !req
302. Hey, let me go, will you? Ah!
Copy !req
303. Impossible. How could you tell?
Copy !req
304. It was a perfect transformation.
Copy !req
305. I wouldn't be much of a trainer
Copy !req
306. if I couldn't see through
that transformation, would I, Ditto?
Copy !req
307. Dimwits!
How'd you manage to mess this one up?
Copy !req
308. You are in no position to complain.
Copy !req
309. It's time for plan B.
Copy !req
310. Stop! You can't do this!
Copy !req
311. Quiet, all of you!
We're going to win after all.
Copy !req
312. Ditto, transform now!
Copy !req
313. Ditto!
Copy !req
314. That's great.
Copy !req
315. I didn't know Ditto could transform
into things like that.
Copy !req
316. - Pikachu.
- Pikachu!
Copy !req
317. Pikachu, aim!
Copy !req
318. Ditto, fire!
Copy !req
319. Fire!
Copy !req
320. Chu!
Copy !req
321. Ah!
Copy !req
322. Jessie, we lose everything.
Copy !req
323. Even all our hot air.
Copy !req
324. Looks like Team Rocket's
blasting off again!
Copy !req
325. - Ditto.
- That was great.
Copy !req
326. You've learned
how to completely transform.
Copy !req
327. Ditto, would you please transform
into a Pikachu?
Copy !req
328. Ditto.
Copy !req
329. - Pikachu.
- Pi?
Copy !req
330. - Pika.
- Pika.
Copy !req
331. That's amazing.
Ditto transforms perfectly.
Copy !req
332. Ha. I can hardly believe it.
Copy !req
333. Team Rocket was actually good
for something.
Copy !req
334. Yeah, and the way Ditto transforms
into objects is great.
Copy !req
335. You're just as real as the real thing.
Copy !req
336. Hey, Ditto, great job.
Copy !req
337. - Pika?
- Pika.
Copy !req
338. But now I can't tell
which one's my Pikachu.
Copy !req
339. Then I guess you need to keep training,
Ashy-boy.
Copy !req
340. - Right, Ditto?
- Ditto.
Copy !req
341. Ah.
Copy !req
342. Pikachu.
Copy !req
343. Ditto. Ditto.
Copy !req
344. There. The Imitay House is reopened.
Copy !req
345. Congratulations.
Copy !req
346. You did it, Duplica.
- Thanks for everything.
Copy !req
347. Come back and see us anytime, okay?
Copy !req
348. Good luck!
And take of yourself, Ditto master!
Copy !req
349. Imagine, the strength of all the Pokémon
in one.
Copy !req
350. Maybe I'll capture a Ditto
for myself someday.
Copy !req
351. Our heroes helped bring the sunshine
Copy !req
352. back into a fellow trainer's Life.
Copy !req
353. Who knows what rewards and adventures
await them beyond the rainbow?
Copy !req
354. Hey! What are you doing?
Hold still.
Copy !req
355. Stop it. Let me go!
Cut it out, will you? Ow! Quit it!
Copy !req
356. Will you stop it, Meowth?
Copy !req
357. The only way we can get out of this mess
Copy !req
358. is to dress you up like a Dratini
and present you to the boss.
Copy !req
359. Pea brains. This won't work.
Copy !req
360. Take that! And that!
Copy !req
361. How dare you touch my face!
Let go of me!
Copy !req
362. You guys up for the Pokérap?
Copy !req
363. There's 150 Pokémon.
You gotta name 'em all!
Copy !req
364. I'm doing 32 today,
so try to keep up.
Copy !req
365. All right, how'd you do?
Copy !req
366. Loosen those lips.
Shake out that tongue!
Copy !req
367. Give it a rest, today's song is sung.
We'll be back tomorrow!
Copy !req
