1. Odd.
Copy !req
2. I don't see a single one
anywhere.
Copy !req
3. As Ash and his new friends
Max and May...
Copy !req
4. head towards Rustboro City...
Copy !req
5. their travels begin
in the Petalburg forest...
Copy !req
6. with hopes of seeing
new Pokémon.
Copy !req
7. Any chance that we'll be
stopping for lunch soon?
Copy !req
8. Huh?
Copy !req
9. But I haven't even seen
one Pokémon yet!
Copy !req
10. Uh, did you think you could
just look up and see one...
Copy !req
11. whenever you wanted to, Max?
It doesn't work that way.
Copy !req
12. But I always heard
Petalburg forest...
Copy !req
13. is so full of Pokémon
you can't miss 'em.
Copy !req
14. I wonder if we're
in the wrong part of the woods.
Copy !req
15. Hey! Ash, let's eat lunch!
Copy !req
16. No, let's go a different way!
Copy !req
17. - No, it's time for lunch, Ash!
- Not till we see Pokémon!
Copy !req
18. - Lunch!
- Find Pokémon!
Copy !req
19. - Lunch!
- No!
Copy !req
20. - Yes!
- No!
Copy !req
21. Stop talking! Both of you!
Copy !req
22. We'll stop
for a quick lunch break.
Copy !req
23. And then we'll decide
which way to go after that.
Copy !req
24. - Yeah!
- All right!
Copy !req
25. A kid from Pallet Town
with a brand-new world to see
Copy !req
26. I don't know what's ahead,
but it won't get the best of me
Copy !req
27. There's so much to learn
and battles to be won
Copy !req
28. I've advanced so far, and still
there's always more to come
Copy !req
29. Take a step, and I'm on my way
Copy !req
30. Gonna start all over again
Copy !req
31. - I wanna be a hero
- Hero
Copy !req
32. Pokémon Advanced
Copy !req
33. I'm on my way
Copy !req
34. - I wanna be a hero
- Hero
Copy !req
35. Give it just one chance
Copy !req
36. And the future will decide
Copy !req
37. if there's a hero
buried deep inside
Copy !req
38. I wanna be a hero
Copy !req
39. Pokémon
Copy !req
40. Lunchtime!
Copy !req
41. We needed a break anyway.
Besides...
Copy !req
42. we'll have better luck hunting
Pokémon on a full stomach!
Copy !req
43. Well I guess I was gettin'
kinda hungry.
Copy !req
44. I'm so hungry
I could eat a Tauros!
Copy !req
45. Mmm.
Copy !req
46. Mmm.
Copy !req
47. Mmm.
Copy !req
48. Uh...
Copy !req
49. Uh...
Copy !req
50. Uh...
Copy !req
51. Pika?
Copy !req
52. So, Ash, where's lunch?
Copy !req
53. I thought
you were carrying it, Max.
Copy !req
54. I thought that
you were gonna grab it, May.
Copy !req
55. You mean...
Copy !req
56. - There's...
- No lunch?
Copy !req
57. Pika!
Copy !req
58. You're the professional
traveler, Ash.
Copy !req
59. I'm surprised you'd forget
something like our food.
Copy !req
60. She has a point.
Copy !req
61. Come on!
Copy !req
62. Uh... All right.
Guess I messed up.
Copy !req
63. Pikachu.
Copy !req
64. Pika!
Copy !req
65. Pi pi pika! Pika!
Copy !req
66. Guess we're outta
Pokémon food, too.
Copy !req
67. I'm sorry, Pikachu.
Copy !req
68. It's too bad that Brock
didn't come along with us.
Copy !req
69. - Brock?
- Brock who?
Copy !req
70. A friend I was traveling
with before.
Copy !req
71. Hnows lots about Pokémon.
Copy !req
72. But he really
knows how to cook, too.
Copy !req
73. Pika.
Copy !req
74. Sorry I'm so useless
compared to him.
Copy !req
75. I sense some discord
amongst the new friends.
Copy !req
76. Poor things are cranky
because they're out of food.
Copy !req
77. So we strike while the stomach
is grumbling...
Copy !req
78. that's what I say!
Copy !req
79. Come on,
let's pinch that Pikachu.
Copy !req
80. Wobbuffet!
Copy !req
81. - Yeah, maybe.
- I don't know.
Copy !req
82. What's your problem?
Copy !req
83. I'm still eating.
Copy !req
84. Meowth,
were you born in a barn?
Copy !req
85. It's terrible manners
to simply get up and leave...
Copy !req
86. in the middle of a meal.
Copy !req
87. Wobbuffet!
Copy !req
88. There's nothin' wrong
with being born in a barn!
Copy !req
89. I need food.
Copy !req
90. So...
Copy !req
91. Hey, what've you got in there?
Copy !req
92. Chocolate cookies!
Copy !req
93. Of course you're gonna share
with your sister.
Copy !req
94. Pika pika!
Copy !req
95. Only one.
Copy !req
96. Only one?
Copy !req
97. Sorry.
It's my emergency stash!
Copy !req
98. So if we split it,
we'll each get one bite.
Copy !req
99. - Mm-hmm.
- Taillow!
Copy !req
100. - Huh?
- Pika!
Copy !req
101. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
102. Yeah, I finally
found a Pokémon!
Copy !req
103. It stole our chocolate!
Copy !req
104. What is that Pokémon?
Copy !req
105. - A Taillow!
- Taillow?
Copy !req
106. Taillow—
the tiny swallow Pokémon.
Copy !req
107. Taillow has a fierce
personality...
Copy !req
108. never backing down...
Copy !req
109. even against
the most powerful opponents.
Copy !req
110. Give back that chocolate!
Copy !req
111. Careful, May.
Where there's one Taillow...
Copy !req
112. there's always
a whole flock of 'em!
Copy !req
113. Give us back that chocolate,
you robber!
Copy !req
114. I want it back! Give it back!
Copy !req
115. It ate the whole thing.
Copy !req
116. Guess that Taillow
must've been really hungry.
Copy !req
117. Yeah. I wonder if my
chocolate cookie filled it up.
Copy !req
118. We're hungry, too.
Copy !req
119. Taillow, how did you like
my chocolate?
Copy !req
120. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
121. Glad you enjoyed it.
Copy !req
122. Don't worry, May.
Copy !req
123. I'm sure we'll get some food
in the next town.
Copy !req
124. - Yeah?
- Pika pika.
Copy !req
125. Uh, look, guys!
These trees are full of fruit!
Copy !req
126. We've been saved!
Copy !req
127. Watch out, tummy!
Here it comes!
Copy !req
128. Pikachu, help us out and knock
down some of that fruit!
Copy !req
129. Pikachu!
Copy !req
130. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
131. Oh, no. Again?
Copy !req
132. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
133. This is bad.
I think they're angry.
Copy !req
134. It almost looks like
they're about to attack.
Copy !req
135. They got their fruit back,
so what's the problem?
Copy !req
136. I think they're upset
because we might be...
Copy !req
137. in the middle
of their territory.
Copy !req
138. In that case,
they might be mad...
Copy !req
139. 'cause we were gonna eat
some of their fruit!
Copy !req
140. What should we do?
Copy !req
141. Well, I guess
we could try apologizing?
Copy !req
142. Taillow!
Copy !req
143. Ash, can't you do something?
Copy !req
144. Pikachu, thunderbolt!
Copy !req
145. Pikachu!
Copy !req
146. Wow, that was too close.
Copy !req
147. Lucky for us that electric
attacks are so effective...
Copy !req
148. against flying Pokémon.
Copy !req
149. That'll keep 'em down
for a while.
Copy !req
150. - Aah!
- Maybe not!
Copy !req
151. Do you think we woke 'em up?
Copy !req
152. But how could
they've recovered so quickly?
Copy !req
153. Pikachu, thunderbolt them!
Copy !req
154. Pikachu!
Copy !req
155. Pika!
Copy !req
156. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
157. That didn't affect 'em!
Copy !req
158. How is that possible?
Pikachu scored a direct hit!
Copy !req
159. Remember what the Pokédex said?
Copy !req
160. Taillow are fierce
and they won't back down...
Copy !req
161. no matter
how strong the opponent.
Copy !req
162. Those Taillow are fantastic,
aren't they?
Copy !req
163. Bold and courageous,
just like us.
Copy !req
164. And they got a knack
for locating chocolate cookies.
Copy !req
165. Just think of the power
we'd have...
Copy !req
166. if the Taillow were on our side!
Copy !req
167. Catching Pikachu would be easy
with a flock of them.
Copy !req
168. It'll be a feather in our cap!
Copy !req
169. Wobbuffet!
Copy !req
170. Pikachu!
Copy !req
171. Taillow!
Copy !req
172. Taillow!
Copy !req
173. You know...
I bet that one's the leader.
Copy !req
174. Well, the chocolate mustache
on its beak...
Copy !req
175. means it's also
the one who started this.
Copy !req
176. - Watch out, Pikachu!
- Pika!
Copy !req
177. Thunderbolt now!
Copy !req
178. Pikachu!
Copy !req
179. - No way!
- Unbelievable!
Copy !req
180. They're closing in on us, Max!
Copy !req
181. Nothing seems to work.
Copy !req
182. Foretress, explosion!
Copy !req
183. Fore! Fore!
Copy !req
184. Hey, it's Brock!
Copy !req
185. This is Brock?
Copy !req
186. Who's that Pokémon?
Copy !req
187. - It's Misdreavus!
- Misdreavus!
Copy !req
188. We'll be safer
outside of the forest.
Copy !req
189. Thanks, Brock.
We were lucky you came by.
Copy !req
190. Well, you should really
thank Foretress.
Copy !req
191. It's good to see you again,
Pikachu.
Copy !req
192. Pika pika!
Copy !req
193. Looks like you got hurt
a little bit, huh?
Copy !req
194. - Pika.
- Here.
Copy !req
195. Pika!
Copy !req
196. So, Brock,
what're you doin' out here?
Copy !req
197. I thought
you were gonna go home.
Copy !req
198. I did go home,
and everything's fine...
Copy !req
199. so I decided to come back out.
Copy !req
200. Then Professor Birch told me you
were headed to Rustboro City...
Copy !req
201. so I decided to come out here
and see if I could find you.
Copy !req
202. Hey, does that mean we're gonna
travel together again?
Copy !req
203. Yeah! If you don't mind!
Copy !req
204. Best news I've had all day.
Copy !req
205. Let me introduce you
to my new friends.
Copy !req
206. This is May and her brother Max
from Petalburg City.
Copy !req
207. And this is my friend Brock.
Copy !req
208. He's training to become the
world's best Pokémon breeder.
Copy !req
209. Hi there.
Copy !req
210. Hey, Brock, nice to meet you.
Copy !req
211. It's cool being a breeder, huh?
Copy !req
212. Yeah, I still got
a lot to learn, though.
Copy !req
213. But hi!
Copy !req
214. When I met Brock, he was
the gym leader in Pewter City.
Copy !req
215. Wow, you were?
Copy !req
216. Hey, our dad's
a gym leader, too!
Copy !req
217. May and Max's father is the gym
Ieader in Petalburg City.
Copy !req
218. I bet you guys wanna
become gym leaders, too.
Copy !req
219. I don't know about that.
Copy !req
220. I don't even have
my first Pokémon yet.
Copy !req
221. Don't worry, Max.
That takes time.
Copy !req
222. It'll happen before you know it.
Copy !req
223. OH.
Copy !req
224. That's why I left
most of my Pokémon at home.
Copy !req
225. - So my brothers could practice.
- That's cool.
Copy !req
226. Your Foretress's
explosion attack was awesome.
Copy !req
227. Hey, thanks.
Copy !req
228. Is it true
what Ash told us about you...
Copy !req
229. that you're
a really good cook?
Copy !req
230. Then how's about
a little sample?
Copy !req
231. All right.
Let's have some lunch.
Copy !req
232. Aah! They're gone!
Copy !req
233. There were four sandwiches
in my backpack!
Copy !req
234. No!
Copy !req
235. Brock, is it possible
that you ate them already?
Copy !req
236. No. Although I was
just about to eat one...
Copy !req
237. when I heard
the thunderbolt...
Copy !req
238. and ran to see
if it was Pikachu.
Copy !req
239. So they disappeared
during the battle.
Copy !req
240. Then the other Taillow
ate them, probably.
Copy !req
241. I'm so hungry.
Copy !req
242. Taillow do tend to travel
in flocks looking for food...
Copy !req
243. and then devour whatever
they happen to come across.
Copy !req
244. As you probably noticed...
Copy !req
245. they're also very territorial
and prem aggressive...
Copy !req
246. so other Pokémon usually
run and hide...
Copy !req
247. whenever they hear
a flock of Taillow coming.
Copy !req
248. That explains why we couldn't
find any Pokémon...
Copy !req
249. when we first
got to the woods, huh?
Copy !req
250. And why the whole flock
attacked us...
Copy !req
251. when we were just trying to get
some fruit out of those trees.
Copy !req
252. OH! How about
I rustle us up some stew?
Copy !req
253. - Really?
- That sounds great!
Copy !req
254. Brock to the rescue!
Copy !req
255. Pikachu's first.
How does that sound?
Copy !req
256. Pika!
Copy !req
257. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
258. Calling all Taillow!
Copy !req
259. - We come bearing gifts.
- Yummy sandwiches!
Copy !req
260. Wobbuffet!
Copy !req
261. Wobb!
Copy !req
262. They're yours to chow down on,
but first we gotta talk...
Copy !req
263. and make a little dealio!
Copy !req
264. - Wait, wait wait!
- Back it up!
Copy !req
265. Or you could eat first
and then we'll talk.
Copy !req
266. Wobbuffet!
Copy !req
267. I still say we should've
saved one to eat ourselves.
Copy !req
268. A rumbling tummy
is a small price to pay...
Copy !req
269. to capture a Pikachu!
Copy !req
270. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
271. They're saying
they want some more.
Copy !req
272. Do you featherbrains think
this is a restaurant?
Copy !req
273. That's fine, but...
Copy !req
274. first you'll have to do
a little something for us.
Copy !req
275. Taillow?
Copy !req
276. Just a little while longer now
and it'll be ready.
Copy !req
277. Huh?
Copy !req
278. Guys, you're drooling on me.
Copy !req
279. - Pika?
- Oh, no!
Copy !req
280. - It's that same Taillow!
- What's it want now?
Copy !req
281. Low. Low. Taillow.
Copy !req
282. Pika. Pika pika.
Copy !req
283. Can you tell
what they're saying?
Copy !req
284. That Taillow
came back here to fight.
Copy !req
285. - How come?
- Am I right, Pikachu?
Copy !req
286. - Pika.
- All right. We accept!
Copy !req
287. What?
Copy !req
288. I don't get it.
What's the point?
Copy !req
289. I guess Taillow wants to prove
which Pokémon is the best.
Copy !req
290. A strong opponent always
makes Taillow want to battle.
Copy !req
291. I'm guessing it wants
a clear winner decided...
Copy !req
292. in its battle with Pikachu.
Copy !req
293. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
294. - All right, Pikachu!
- Pika!
Copy !req
295. - Taillow!
- Pika!
Copy !req
296. Let's do it!
Copy !req
297. Taillow!
Copy !req
298. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
299. Pikachu, quick attack!
Copy !req
300. How could it have dodged
that quick attack?
Copy !req
301. First attacks
are almost never off target!
Copy !req
302. But Taillow can fly
and Pikachu can't.
Copy !req
303. A clear advantage.
Copy !req
304. Use thunderbolt!
Copy !req
305. Pikachu!
Copy !req
306. Wow! That Taillow's awesome!
It just won't quit!
Copy !req
307. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
308. Pikachu!
Copy !req
309. It isn't working, Brock.
How come?
Copy !req
310. Actually the attack
had an effect, but then...
Copy !req
311. Taillow just won't give up!
Copy !req
312. Pika!
Copy !req
313. Well, we aren't
about to give up, either!
Copy !req
314. Pika!
Copy !req
315. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
316. Here it comes, pal.
Copy !req
317. Finish it for good this time!
Thunder!
Copy !req
318. Pikachu!
Copy !req
319. Wow. It won't back down.
Copy !req
320. But it's a flying type.
Copy !req
321. Electric attacks
should have finished it.
Copy !req
322. Taillow!
Copy !req
323. - Pika.
- It still wants to battle.
Copy !req
324. Ash, you should put an end
to this battle...
Copy !req
325. before you do it any
more damage.
Copy !req
326. End it? But how, Brock?
Copy !req
327. I think you'll have to catch it.
Copy !req
328. Uh, OH.
Copy !req
329. Yeah!
Copy !req
330. All right... go Pokéball!
Copy !req
331. Pika.
Copy !req
332. Taillow. Taillow.
Copy !req
333. Poor Taillow.
It's exhausted from its battle.
Copy !req
334. It's OH now. Calm down.
Copy !req
335. A shot of that and some rest...
Copy !req
336. and you'll be
as good as new in no time.
Copy !req
337. Low! Low! Taillow!
Copy !req
338. Well, Taillow...
Copy !req
339. how do you feel about hittin'
the road with our group?
Copy !req
340. Taillow!
Copy !req
341. All right, then.
We're glad to have you.
Copy !req
342. - Climb on!
- Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
343. My name's Max, Taillow.
Copy !req
344. Nice to meet you!
Copy !req
345. There's no reason to hide,
you know.
Copy !req
346. I'm not hiding.
Copy !req
347. I'm introducing myself
gradually.
Copy !req
348. Taillow,
you're my very first Pokémon...
Copy !req
349. here in the Hoenn region.
Copy !req
350. Yeah! I caught a Taillow!
Copy !req
351. - Pikachu!
- Taillow!
Copy !req
352. What is it?
Copy !req
353. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
354. That flock again!
Copy !req
355. - Still after us?
- Pika!
Copy !req
356. Whoa. Don't tell me
they all want to battle Pikachu.
Copy !req
357. It is a possibility.
Copy !req
358. You won't talk 'em
out of it, Taillow!
Copy !req
359. - Who's that?
- Those bad guys again!
Copy !req
360. - It's Team Rocket!
- It's them, all right!
Copy !req
361. What do you want?
Copy !req
362. Some things just never change.
Copy !req
363. Prepare for trouble
from in the sky.
Copy !req
364. Make it double,
then say good-bye!
Copy !req
365. To protect the world
from devastation.
Copy !req
366. To unite all peoples
within our nation.
Copy !req
367. To denounce the evils
of truth and love.
Copy !req
368. To extend our reach
to the stars above.
Copy !req
369. _essie!
_ames!
Copy !req
370. Team Rocket blast off
at the speed of light.
Copy !req
371. Surrender now or prepare
to fight, fight, fight.
Copy !req
372. That's right!
Copy !req
373. Wobbuffet!
Copy !req
374. I think you've already met
our flock of Taillow...
Copy !req
375. the newest members of the elite
Team Rocket fighting force.
Copy !req
376. No way!
Copy !req
377. With the fierce unbeatability
to battle on...
Copy !req
378. no matter how many
electric attacks they take!
Copy !req
379. Even though "unbeatability"
is not a word.
Copy !req
380. Wobbuffet!
Copy !req
381. Now! Listen up, Taillow.
Copy !req
382. The harder you battle, the more
delicious sandwiches you'll get.
Copy !req
383. Hold on!
You mean sandwiches...
Copy !req
384. like the four that were here
an hour ago?
Copy !req
385. Well, well. Look who it is.
Copy !req
386. The biggest twerp
has made a comeback.
Copy !req
387. You're right. Welcome back.
Copy !req
388. Well if you came for lunch,
I'm afraid you're a little late!
Copy !req
389. Yes, I already know that!
They were my sandwiches!
Copy !req
390. So what you're trying to say is
they were yours?
Copy !req
391. And a tad too salty.
Copy !req
392. I knew it was you!
Copy !req
393. Give 'em back!
Copy !req
394. Yeah, we're starving!
Copy !req
395. Oh, please!
If you wanted them so bad...
Copy !req
396. you should've written
your name on your lunchbag!
Copy !req
397. Yeah, besides that,
they're already gone!
Copy !req
398. Taillow, take care of Pikachu!
Copy !req
399. Oh, no, you don't!
Copy !req
400. Go... Torchic!
Copy !req
401. Torchic tor.
Copy !req
402. Torchic. Torchic.
Copy !req
403. - Pika?
- Wait, Torchic!
Copy !req
404. I still haven't told you
what to do!
Copy !req
405. Ash, what's with her?
Copy !req
406. She just got that Torchic...
Copy !req
407. and doesn't know
how to do anything yet.
Copy !req
408. Ohh! Return!
Copy !req
409. I've never been so humiliated.
Copy !req
410. That was fun.
But now... go, Taillow!
Copy !req
411. - Pika!
- Taillow!
Copy !req
412. The stew is ready!
Copy !req
413. And I'm ready to eat it!
Copy !req
414. Mmm!
Copy !req
415. - Smells good!
- Looks good!
Copy !req
416. And if I know Brock,
it tastes good!
Copy !req
417. Pikachu.
Copy !req
418. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
419. Hey, everybody, would you like
to join us for some lunch?
Copy !req
420. Taillow!
Copy !req
421. Now what?
Copy !req
422. Now they'll beat us
by using our dirty trick.
Copy !req
423. Wait a second.
Pikachu hasn't eaten!
Copy !req
424. Mmm, we'll attack
while it's weak from hunger!
Copy !req
425. Another dirty trick!
Copy !req
426. Pikachu, thunderbolt!
Copy !req
427. Pikachu!
Copy !req
428. Sorry about that, Team Rocket.
Copy !req
429. But this time you're the ones
who are too late.
Copy !req
430. Pikachu already ate
Brock's Pokémon food!
Copy !req
431. Pikachu!
Copy !req
432. - That's nice.
- Everyone's eaten but us...
Copy !req
433. Except for that taste
of our own medicine.
Copy !req
434. Looks like Team Rocket
is blasting off again!
Copy !req
435. Thank you, Brock!
Copy !req
436. That was really great stew.
Copy !req
437. Ash wasn't kidding.
You're an awesome cook, Brock!
Copy !req
438. Yep. I told you he's a good guy
to have around!
Copy !req
439. Mm-hmm!
Copy !req
440. - Better than you, Ash!
- Thanks a lot, Max.
Copy !req
441. Well, the two of you
have an appetite...
Copy !req
442. that's almost as big as Ash's.
Copy !req
443. Which makes cooking
even more fun!
Copy !req
444. Are the Taillow leaving?
Copy !req
445. Maybe they've eaten
all the food in this area...
Copy !req
446. so now they have to move on.
Copy !req
447. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
448. Looks like your Taillow
is saying good-bye...
Copy !req
449. to all of its friends, Ash.
Copy !req
450. Taillow! Taillow!
Copy !req
451. There they go.

his old friend Brock...
