with karina our heroes have finally
arrived in shallow city
thank you for waiting your pokemon are
just fine
great thanks nurse joy all right now we
can go and challenge karina
wow ash you can’t wait
but still karina and lucario are strong
are you sure you’re ready maybe you
should train more he’s right what about
tierno’s rhythmic battle style have you
mastered that yet i’m just saying
hey i’ll be fine long as i tackle that
battle head on it’ll all work out
[Music]
i is it’s my destiny
[Applause]
[Music]
origins of mega evolution
it’s so beautiful it sure is
that’s the tower of mastery the
shallower gym should be inside how do we
get there
[Music]
i don’t see any sort of a bridge
looks like it’s just floating in the
ocean we can’t get over there by walking
come on we came all this way and we
can’t get to the gym that’s nuts
i want to have a battle now
[Music]
those who seek power
show your heart and the path shall
reveal itself
karina
just playing
and lucario too
what a cool surprise so good to see you
again good to see you again too welcome
to
city you came over here just to meet us
yep i figured you’d be showing up soon
so i’ve been waiting for you if you’re
trying to get to the shallow gym that
means one thing you must be fully
prepared to challenge me that true of
course but you haven’t decided on a
strategy yet i’ve been training hard
since i last saw you and i’ve beaten
every challenger so that means you’ve
won all your battles wow you’re so
strong
amazing awesome vega but soon i’m gonna
beat you and mega lucario and win my
third carlos gym badge
we’ve got a problem isn’t the gym over
there how are we going to get across
can’t do it now
we can’t no way
why not
there’s a saying those with a desire to
battle must wait patiently what are you
talking about grandfather says it a lot
it’s the motto our family lives by
it’s gonna be a while before we can get
over there oh no but i want to have a
battle no no calm down it’s okay this
way you’ll have a bit more time to train
remember karina’s even stronger now
guess you’re right
you’ve caught a hallucia and fletchling
evolved into fletchander a fire and
flying type you’ve really been thinking
about a strategy to counter our fighting
type gym
sure have
but hold on if you’re gonna train i
probably shouldn’t watch right that’s a
good point if you watch ass train that
would give away his strategy that’s okay
with me oh you sure
we always battle our opponent head on
we’ve got nothing to hide dewey
[Music]
let’s work on moving and grooving then
we’ll win that gym badge
all right here we go yay let the music
play
okay everyone it’s time to dance
wow look at chess bingo chespin sure is
a good dancer
what look at that fletchender is totally
graceful
oh much is a great dancer
[Music]
as well
the problem is
i think ash is trying to dance right
yeah that’s dancing he looks like he’s
woozy
is doing the best he can now i’ve seen
it all
that’s ash’s train sure is
move it and groove it first off we’ve
got to do something about those moves
for sure how do we do that
the future is now thanks to science
climatic gear on
this is my not a very good dancer
automated good dancing device ah what’s
going on
a revolution in dance allowing anyone
with no rhythm to move in groove
following the beat to a t
but we’re talking about ash here this i
gotta see you shall okay here we go full
power switch on
hey wait
whoa
dancing
continued practice with my device will
have him dancing like a natural in no
time and now let’s pick up the tempo
just a little bit
stop this crazy thing come on
[Music]
i’m trying i’m trying i’m getting dizzy
i feel sick it’s not stopping look out
oh man everything’s spinning
my head glad that’s over with i’m so
sorry what about your training ash are
you done
hmm i was getting so close
wait hey i’ll be your dance teacher
huh
sure i’m an excellent dancer are you
really
just leave it to me
i don’t think this is working out so
well i’m tapped out i don’t know what
else to teach you people are good at
some things and not so good at others so
maybe the rhythmic battle strategy isn’t
the right thing for ash but can he beat
karina without it
hmm
you tried thanks serena you too clement
ash are you okay
yeah i’ve got one choice i’ll give it
all i’ve got i do
have you finished your training yeah
perfect timing then we’ll be able to get
over to the island soon
soon
[Music]
so how’s that gonna happen
wait you’ll see
[Music]
look at that
a path but how
awesome
karina what’s happening
when it’s the right time a path to the
island appears
[Music]

so weird that a path appears in the
ocean like a fantasy world created by
the changing tides

inside all right let’s go have that
battle
no need to be hasty
[Music]
grandfather
how are you sir nice to see you again
[Music]
glad you made it me too i’m here to
challenge the gym but before you do you
must listen to what i tell you
fact is that’s the rule when anyone
comes to this island
if you say so
here we go again
what do you want to tell us a valuable
story it concerns mega evolution come
come follow me
heads up get ready for a long
[Music]
it’s story
is that mega lucario
amazing
i’ve never seen such a large statue
before it symbolizes our family friend
and our bond with mega lucario
who’s that pokemon
[Music]
it’s pumpkaboo
[Music]
you see the history of mega evolution
began long ago with the arrival of one
of my ancestors right here on this
island
[Music]
this man was traveling and training with
his lucario when they found two peculiar
stones right here
[Music]
[Music]
it is generally believed that what
happened next was the world’s first mega
is where mega evolution
started
that’s right our family has lived here
and protected mega evolution island ever
since
that’s great what an interesting story
that is i never knew that before wow
this is an important place yeah you bet
i want to become a great gym leader just
like my grandfather and my ancestor wait
a sec you’re lucario can mega evolve and
you’re already a great gym leader right
you think go on stop to me she still has
a long way to go it’s too soon to pass
down the scroll of secrets to her huh
not that again excuse me what’s the
scroll of secrets
a family treasure it lists everything
one needs to know to be a gym leader
could we see it please show us i’d love
to see what it says not possible only
those chosen are allowed to see it
grandfather has it hidden away somewhere
and won’t show it to anybody
[Music]
empty tummy
the fact is we haven’t had dinner yet in
that case since it’s already late let’s
have our gym battle tomorrow you guys
can stay here tonight it’s been a while
let’s have dinner together good idea
thanks
yay i’m starving
scroll of secrets a bet there’s lots of
mega evolution stuff in that thing
see if we were to take it and gift it to
the balls
not two would be a loss
[Music]
hmm
[Music]
if it’s not in that old codgers room
then it’s got to be here somewhere let’s
find it
nothing in here
then stop looking where it isn’t and
start looking where it is we gotta start
thinking like
is that a statue of mega lucario mega
evolution maybe it’s in there i like the
way you think nice
suspicious truly
my arm will fit
who’s up there
[Music]
what are you doing
your scroll of secrets is a secret no

prepare for trouble it’s us of course
and we’re taking the scroll of secrets
by force to protect the world from
devastation to unite all people within
our nation to denounce the evils of
truth and love
to extend our reach to the stars above
jesse

done you make me very proud
that’s the scroll of secrets what does
it say show us
but we’re not allowed to see it right
hmm
since you managed to get the scroll back
to me
i guess i can make an exception
wow you mean it
yay
now
rule one early to bed and early to rise
rule two eat in moderation even if it’s
delicious rule three keep all of your
belongings organized and readily
available
but rule four wash your hands several
times a day
um is that really the scroll of secrets
you doubt me
it took a lot of effort i spent
countless hours writing this all so gym
leaders could be at the peak of
perfection
that’s what you wrote hmm profound right
so then there’s nothing in there about
mega evolution or your ancestors history
ah no
not a single thing
[Applause]
the charler city gym battle between ash
