Risa!

See you!

See you later!

Yeah?

Oh, it's you, Sis.

Change of clothes.

How's your leg?

It's just fine as long as I don't move it around too much.

You've gotta be more careful!

Well what about your leg?

So. Are you running?

You just worry about yourself.

Okay, okay.

Hey, Risa? Heard of the Wind Festival in Fula City?

Yeah, I've heard of it. What about it?

It's supposed to be a really big event.

So...

About that...

I wanna ask you a favor.

Uh...

I'm home...

Me catch a Pokémon?!

No, no WAY!

But Risa! I'm begging you!

Not a chance! Why are you asking me?

Come on! Would you take a look at my leg?

What if I went out and suddenly collapsed?

And nobody was around to help?

I mean, there I am, losing consciousness, and the only

person I'm thinking about is my amazing sister!

Is that what you want? Huh?! I mean how could you?

Okay, I'll try!

But no guarantees! Got it?

All right!

But I don't expect you to do it for nothing!

Take it. Here!

What's this for?

Something to say thank you.

Wear them and have fun at the festival!

Wow! They're pretty cute!

Not too shabby, little brother...

Catching a Pokémon...

There will be an award ceremony for

the winner of the catch race.

All right.

Father!

Morning, Margo!

Are you going to the Wind Festival today?

You take care then!

You, too, Father!

Yes!

This young man is Ash Ketchum, from Pallet Town.

With his partner, Pikachu, he's working hard

to become a Pokémon Master...

So, his journey continues.

He's arrived in a city that lives in

harmony with the wind...

Fula City. And right now...

...the city is holding its Wind Festival.

Wow, this looks like fun!

Pikachu!

There's even better stuff over here!

It looked light and fluffy and yummy!

Hey... Never thought it would be this lively...

This isn't bad at all!

Not bad at all.

Now look, you, stay away from me!

Pity's sake.

A lady can't even look at flowers in peace!

Uh...

Impossible! I mean... It's tomorrow, right?

No, no, I know, but...

Is everything all right?

Yeah, everything's fine. Don't touch them.

Now, where was I?

Can't we work something out here? I mean...

Yeah?

Kellie, are you hurt?

I'm okay!

Watch where you're going!

But this place is so much fun!

O--kay!

I'll take you somewhere that's even more fun!

There are lots of places to play!

I love you, Uncle Callahan!

MAGIKARP GROUPHORSEA GROUP SEADRALANTURNGORBYSS

The Pokémon Channel!

Here we go! It's the Pokémon Channel!

Get ready! This only happens once a year.

We're talking the Wind Festival in Fula City!

Aww! I wanted to go, too...

If that's what you poor kids

are thinking then I'm your guy!

There's no need to fear!

This channel will bring you all the news from the festival!

They say that the festival was formed

after a promise with Lugia!

See, once this place was a

barren, desolate land!

But even so, people and Pokémon

supported each other!

Lugia saw their bonds of friendship

and promised to grant them the power of wind!

And the people used that power to

build and develop Fula City!

Ever since, Lugia comes to town once a year.

After seeing the bonds of friendship

between people and Pokémon, it gives them the gift of

the wind for another year!

But wait.

There's one more thing you should know. A long time ago...

There was a fire. On a nearby mountain!

But Lugia put it out!

Uncle Callahan?!

See? I bought some ice cream!

Here! This one's all for you!

Oh, thank you, Kellie!

Uncle Callahan, please show me your Pokémon!

Do you have the strongest Pokémon ever EVER?

Uh, of course I do!

See?

What kind is it?

The strongest kind!

Let me see!

No!!

See, now's not a good time.

It was just in a giant battle! And it's exhausted.

Hey, look out! Your ice cream!

It's dripping!

Thank you. You're a good brother.

Kellie just had to come, no matter what.

No prob.

But is she... Is she up to this?

Yes. She's been feeling good lately.

Uncle Callahan!?

What kind of Pokémon is that?

Ah, that's the Legendary Pokémon Lugia.

Lugia's the reason this city has grown

to the size it has!

Uncle Callahan, you know everything!

It happened long, long ago.

It was a cold day.

I had just arrived in town for work.

When suddenly--

I began to see a red glow up on the mountain.

It then occurred to me that red glow was a fire!

I screamed...

Townspeople, listen to me!

The fire's coming closer! Run!

I called for Lugia. Hoping for help!

And Lugia came and put out that mountain fire!

Since then, the town has been living

happily ever after!

The end! Thank you.

Uncle Callahan, Awesome! Yay!

Yay!

You lied! Why do you do that?

It's not lying. It's called dramatic license.

So, Kellie!

Where to next?

I see some fun stuff over there...

Yay, let's go!

If only I could speak in front of people like that...

Lemonade! Lemonade!

Hey lady! How about some Lemonade?

Phanpy!

Hold it!

Now what's going on here?! Keep it away from me!

Sorry. We didn't mean it!

Didn't you know?!

That lady's world-famous for hating Pokémon!

Are you serious?

Don't let go!

See her hand? Who wears a glove in summer?

Margo!

I'm sorry!

The mayor's daughter!

Hey!

Great, what'll we do now?

Now we can't make Lemonade because you

knocked everything over!

I'm... I'm sorry!

You see, I'm in a hurry...

Don't give me that!

You're gonna pay for this!

Just calm down...

After all, this is a festival,

so let's have some fun!

Hey! Who do you think you are?!

Get him, Phanpy! Use Rollout!

Dodge it!

Oh, wow...

Now use Iron Tail!

Phanpy, use Tackle!

So you wanna go another round?

I'm...I'm letting you off easy today...

We're going home!

We're not gonna forget this!

Thank you!

No prob. Are you okay?

Sure. Thank you, too, Pikachu!

My name's Ash, from Pallet Town.

This is my partner, Pikachu.

I'm Margo.

Did you two come here for the Wind Festival?

Yup. You bet!

Impressive!

Indeed! Such agility!

So what plan to pinch Pikachu is on today's menu?

The right one. We'll start our own juice business.

A perfect idea, of course...

Let's get started.

Wait, you're not serious!

We can help those thirsty folks. Success is the

right product at the right time. And we've managed both!

We're cool cash magnets!

What about Pikachu? How does that relate?

Do you get it?

Wow! Cash relates to everything!

Then we'll be able to see Lugia?

Sure. On the last day of the festival.

After all, it's the main event!

Sounds awesome!

Hey! Look at that!

The eternal flame!

Lugia first sees the flame, then it sends the wind.

Wow... And, what's that?

An old power plant.

That's what I've heard.

It broke down years ago during a fire on the mountain.

They haven't used it since.

I also heard that during the fire, Lugia brought

heavy rains and put it out!

Lugia's just so cool!

Well, I'm gonna be heading this way.

And the Wind Festival is over that way.

Got it. Thanks a lot.

See you later!

Later!

Wow...

All right!

Oh yeah! I am the best at this!

Congratulations!

See that folks, everybody's a winner!

Thank you! Thank you so much!

Here ya go, pal!

Thanks, kid!

This is for you.

You did it! Thanks, Uncle Callahan!

I'd win a dozen before lunch.

Good for you, Kellie.

This toy that Uncle Callahan won for me will be

my treasure forever and ever!

You all right?

I'm sorry.

Me, too! Are you hurt?

Thanks. I'm fine.

I wasn't looking where I was going.

'Scuse me. Where's your Pokémon?

Oh.

I came here to catch one.

And it must be super-rare because I haven't found a thing!

All you have to do is ask Uncle Callahan!

Me?!

He's the best Pokémon Trainer ever!

Really?

Please tell me where to catch one, please?

All right. What Pokémon?

It's this one.

Oh. That one.

It's super rare, all right.

Yeah? It is? Where can I find it?

Hold on, hold on...

I've got it! Over there, over there!

The latest info says it's up on that mountain!

That's wonderful! That's so nice of you!

No prob.

Now you've done it, buddy!

Coming up on Main Street,

the Wind Festival's exciting...

...Pokémon catch race!

All Pokémon Trainers are encouraged to join

in on the fun!

Pikachu, did you hear that?

Uncle Callahan! It's a catch race! Do it!

I'm sure you'll be the winner!

Of course! No doubt I will!

After all, I'm the best Trainer that ever trained!

I'll bring down the strongest of the strong,

and win the trophy to give to Kellie as a present!

Yeah?! All right!!

Come on, now.

The speaker isn't coming?

Now what, Toren?

I'll think of something...

What do you mean, think of something?!

You know the presentation's tomorrow.

Find someone? You could've just asked us to...

I'll be all right!

I'll figure something out, don't worry.

We need this to continue our research.

You of all people should know how important

that is, Toren!

We're counting on you.

What's in there?

Winning a catch race...

This says it's the Pokémon Research Pavilion.

Pokémon Research Pavilion?

Anybody work around here?

Yes. That would be me.

This awful heat has finally gotten my brains

to the point where they're extra crispy.

I don't think you're crazy...

I'm sorry! Did it touch your clothes?!

No...

But don't you go jumping out from

behind things, understand?!

Want to give me a heart attack?!

No, of course not...

Here. Sign these...

...and give them to festival administration.

Yes. I will!

Right.

I'm very sorry.

Brother! You're a Pokémon Re... searcher...

And that means you know everything about Pokémon!

A-ha!

These are for you two.

Dig in.

I'm sorry! I know it's my fault that you got hurt.

The Oran Berries will help you get better,

so eat them all up, okay?

Be back soon.

Wow... So many people!

Lots of luck, Uncle Callahan!

I wonder what kind of Pokémon we'll be catching...

It'll be fun, right pal?

Get your Lum Berry juice!

Perfect for a catch race!

Give something healthy to your Pokémon!

Lum Berries are the best thing for a Pokémon!

It's a very special berry that can cure sleepiness,

numbness, confusion, or just about anything that ails ya!

Hello everyone!

We're just about to begin the Wind Festival's catch race!

The rules are simple! Pokémon with a special

mark are waiting all over Fula City for Trainers to come along!

But some of them are very strong Pokémon,

too, and they won't be caught so easily!

Participating Trainers must catch these

Pokémon with special catch race Poké Balls!

Points will be awarded according

to a Pokémon's strength.

The Trainer with the most points at

the end of the competition ...will be the winner!

Testing. One, two, three. Come in.

Everything's fine.

I can hear you loud and clear.

Mr. Callahan, if I do this, then you'll do our

presentation for us right?

Of course I will. It's a win-win for both of us.

So I'm counting on you.

Right. But I sincerely want you to avoid

overworking my Staryu, okay?

You've got it!

Trainers to the starting line!

Ready?!

GO!

Let's hit it, Pikachu!

We'll catch a bunch and win that trophy!

An Ekans!

Use Quick Attack!

Go!

Yes!

We caught our first Pokémon!

It's strong!

The Trainers are really

scooping up those Pokémon!

But the trainer catching the most?

A guy named Callahan!

Go, Uncle Callahan, go, go!

Staryu's Ability is Illuminate!

Other Pokémon love it!

And they're making awfully good use of it...

Pikachu, see that?

Right. Let's go after it!

Aww...I'm beat!

You're doing great! You're in first place!

Now what's going on?

Sudowoodo is weak against water! You can catch it!

Oh, no! We're just receiving word of...

...a Tyranitar rampaging though the city,

and a Trainer named Ash seems to be chasing it!

Uh, there appears to be some sort of cord

wrapped around Tyranitar's neck!

No way!

Tyranitar!

Pikachu, do you think you can lead Tyranitar over there?

I'm counting on you, buddy!

You know, you shouldn't lie to yourself.

It's habit forming.

That's the Imitation Pokémon. That's what it does!

Shut up!

Hurry and find me the next Pokémon.

I've got you now, Tyranitar!

Oh, no!

There are dozens of people right where Tyranitar's headed!

Right, Pikachu! Go for it!

Use Iron Tail!

Tyranitar!

Hey... Everything's gonna be all right now! I promise.

You were great, Pikachu!

Fantastic! Ash managed to save Tyranitar!

They created a bond that's even stronger than

simply catching! What passion!

Can you stand?

We present the Mayor's Prize to the

second-place finisher in the catch race, Ash Ketchum, for his

brilliant rescue of Tyranitar!

Thank you very much!

Not so fast, son. Thank you for rescuing Tyranitar.

All 'cause of Pikachu!

That's why it worked.

All 'cause of Pikachu!

And now! The grand prize... goes to Callahan!

See, Kellie?

Uncle Callahan, you're the best!

Congratulations on your first-place finish.

Thanks!

But you come to expect these sorts of things with me.

By the way, are there any Pokémon that

you'd like to catch next?

Next? Let's see...

I've been hearing there's an extremely rare

Pokémon around this area...

Well I hadn't heard about that.

An extremely rare Pokémon?

Since I'm already at the Wind Festival, I was

hoping I could catch it.

Heard of this before?

No...

Seriously?

I wanna catch it!

Wonder what Pokémon it is!

We'd like to thank Callahan, our winner,

for his time!

Thank you!

The Pokémon Channel!

I've got a late-breaking,

important newsflash!

There's an extremely

rare Pokémon in Fula City!

If you're a Pokémon Trainer, you can't

let this chance pass you by!

Maybe I'm imagining things...

I wanna play more with Uncle Callahan...

Little miss is talking in her sleep.

She did run all over the place. She's exhausted.

That's fine with me.

Wait. What are you doing following us?

Now don't give me that!

I returned all the Pokémon I caught!

And excuse me, but I never caught you!

You're following my big brother because

you like him, right?

Go home!

Why don't you go and find somebody else to bother?

Didn't you hear a word I said?

Oh hey!

Did you like the Wind Festival?

It was lots of fun!

I rode the roller coaster and went in the haunted house...

What about you?

I was very busy today.

The man who won the catch race said something

about a rare Pokémon being in the area, but...

Some story! I haven't heard one word about that.

But...weren't there stories about Zeraora?

Now, Margo. It doesn't exist anymore.

Father?

We can't have our citizens panicking!

I want no more talk of this!

Yes, Father...

Oh, come on! Where's this thing supposed to be?!

Would you stop scaring me?!

Hey, you! Don't you know this mountain's off limits!

You've heard of Zeraora's curse, haven't you?

Now wait just a second! Zeraora? Curse?

You're not from around here are ya...

Anyway, it's forbidden to be here, so let's go.

Fine, I'll come! Just tell me, okay? This Pokémon...

I hear it's rare. You know it?

Rare? Really? Looks like just an Eevee to me.

They don't live around these parts.

That old man lied to me through his teeth!

You scamps! How did you get in here in the first place?!

This one is off limits! You got that?

Stay away from me!!

You worked hard, didn't you, Staryu?

But thanks to your work, it seems

we'll get through tomorrow.

That man is extremely good at performance, isn't he?

So the presentation should go well.

So, Meowth, what kind of research is he doing?

Let's see...

It looks like research on Pokémon Abilities and moves.

Perfect! I mean, I have no idea what it means,

but it's got to help!

All right. Let's do some stealing!

Yeah...

Is, uh, somebody there?

Hey, everyone! Wait, please!

So. This is all it was.

Everyone, careful of the glass.

This is the essence we made from Smeargle ink.

I wonder why it fell down.

That was close!

I panicked.

There's always another day.

Imagine, there might be Pokémon we've never heard of

before living somewhere around this place, you know?

Oh, yes...

Those scamps forced me to sleep outside...

So what do you wanna do today?

Buddy?

I found you!

You found me? Whaddaya mean?

Pikachu's sorry about that.

No problem. Ancient history!

I'm just so glad the second-place winner in

the catch race can help me!

Hope I don't let you down.

You see, my last "big helper just fed me

nothing but lies!

You're the best, Pikachu!

That's the one!

Before you can catch it, you battle it.

What Pokémon do you have?

I don't have any.

You don't, huh?

'Kay!o you mind, Pikachu?

So now...

...you go take it on!

You're kidding!

I can't!

Sorry, Pikachu!

Just keep calm! Now listen! Watch Eevee closely!

All right!

Pikachu, dodge it!

Risa! Call a Quick Attack!

Use Quick Attack!

Do it! Throw the Poké Ball now!

Right. Got it!

Go!

Tough break! Try again!

Right!

Now Iron Tail!

Iron Tail, go!

Now Thunderbolt!

Use Thunderbolt!

Risa!

Here we go!

Good for you, Risa!

Does that mean I caught it?

Yup!

All right! All right! I just caught myself an Eevee!

Thank you, Ash, Pikachu!

Where are your eyebrows?!

Thanks for waiting.

Hey, let's see Eevee!

I'm Risa. Can we be friends?

You'll see! You'll be friends in no time!

This was the first time I ever caught a Pokémon.

This feeling. I haven't felt passion in so long!

Right? Fun, isn't it?

I've been training in track and field since

I was little. I had no idea I could catch a Pokémon!

Awesome! Then you're quick on your feet?

This might surprise you, but I was the regional champion.

That's awesome!

But then...

I gave it up.

Why's that?

I got injured. It's healed up good as new now, though.

Whoa...

I suddenly got scared to run.

I think now that Eevee's here, you'll

be able to run again.

How come?

I mean...

What you can't do on your own, you can do with a

Pokémon pal there by your side!

Really?

Officer Jenny? What's wrong?

Hey, Professor!

What? What do you want? It's early in the morning.

I want to know how you explain them!

HERACROSSMARILLTOGEPITYROGUE TOTODILEXATU:

By them, do you mean these Pokémon?

They've been acting strange ever since

I came here yesterday!

Ah, yesterday's chemical spill...

Of course that spill was the essence of a Pokémon move

that we call Sweet Scent.

Pokémon love the smell, so they gather around...

What kind of useless chemical is that?!

I don't want any Pokémon anywhere near me!

I want that stuff neutralized, now!

Wait. I'm afraid... I have nothing prepared...

Toren!

There's trouble!

We just got word from the festival admin!

There are signs of tampering with the

attractions' electrical systems, detergent spilled around town...

...and reports of other minor vandalism.

I can't believe someone would do something like this?

Hey! YOU!

Because of you, I spent all night...

Look, I'm sorry!

I improvised. See? My niece is right over there,

so give me a break, okay?

Pretty please?

I'm begging here!

People like you end up in deep trouble.

I know you! You caught the Pokémon you wanted!

Right, thanks to your cool uncle here!

Everyone my apologies!

We'll make an announcement when we're able

to reopen the festival.

We ask for your continued patience.

I guess it can't be helped.

Let's head back to the hotel and wait.

Mr. Mayor?

We can help out, too!

Hey, it's Ash!

Margo!

Fascinating! You two already know each other?

We met in town yesterday.

When you said, We'll help out, you weren't

signing me up, right?

Sure, the sooner the city goes back to normal and the

festival starts, the better!

Come on! Can we PLEASE help out, too?

It would be great to receive aid from both the catch

race winner and the runner-up!

Yikes.

Uh...

I actually can't stay.

I have a speaking engagement at an important

research conference.

Why would you go to a research conference?

Uh... See, it's like this...

Liar. I feel so sorry for your little niece.

I'll stay quiet...but you'd just better help out!

All right. You win!

Awesome. Let's do it!

Now they've added another one.

There, there you go.

TOTODILETOGE PIMARILL SMOOCHUMTYROGUE:

Professor?

Don't you have a research presentation today?

Yes.

The Pokémon Channel!

Time again for the Pokémon Channel!

Day two of the Wind Festival

was marked by chaos!

Ding!

Somebody played a bunch of pranks,

threatening the festival's opening...

...but the vendors and

townspeople are working very hard to reopen the festival!

So don't you worry!

Man, why do we have to be on cleanup detail?

It's gotta be Zeraora's curse!

It's you guys!

Hey you! Tell us what Zeraora's curse is!

You don't know?

When Zeraora vanished during the fire fifty years ago,

the whole mountain was cursed!

If a human sets one foot onto the mountain,

it'll bring disaster!

And that's Zeraora's curse!

It's a lie!

It's just not true!

Hey, Margo... What's wrong?

This is a message from festival administration.

Since we've met safety standards in all locations...

We hereby reopen the Wind Festival!

Thank goodness, buddy!

It went a lot faster with everybody pitching in.

01:37:08;10EEVEE:

Goody, goody!

We've got an emergency situation...

Let's clean up what's left in one shot, okay!

Thank goodness!

Let's get the presentation ready!

All right!

Professor?

Another one's joined the group!

Can't you be a little quicker about this?

I'm about to be buried in an avalanche of Pokémon!

Forgive me. I'll find a solution before that happens.

Right after my presentation!

I'm counting on it!

Wow! The cable car's working again, too!

Our work here is done.

Oh, no!

Where did my uncle go?

He's acting strange! I'll bet he did this!

He did not!

Let's follow him anyway!

Right!

Where is he?

'Scuse. Toren...

It's time.

Yeah.

Here's the image data for the presentation.

Thanks.

Are you going to be all right?

I'll manage somehow...

Says it all.

So...

Um...

Let's see...

Just do your best! You can do this.

I...want to thank you... Thank you...for coming...

Pull yourself together! You're a scientist!

Today we w-wish to present...

our Pokémon r-research...

What's wrong with him?

Stage fright?

This...research...is... the product...of a lot of hard

work and...uh...late...nights...

Uh-oh! I'm too late...

Callahan?

What business do you have coming here?

Um, well...

Of...

Toren! The visuals, now!

Right!

This is just great!

There aren't more of you, are there?

HERACROSSTOTODILETOGEPIMARIL LTYROGUESMOOCHUMMACHAMPXATU:

Catch this one and you'll be in first place!

Cyndaquil is weak against water, so use Water Gun!

Got it!

Use Water Gun!

Yes!

Now I won't let Kellie down!

My niece will think I really am a great Trainer!

Callahan?

What was that all about?

Uh...eh...uh...

Uncle...

Is that...

No. Um. that's, uh...

Did you... tell a lie?

I got you! Who are you?

Prepare for trouble! We're the best.

And make it double, while forgetting the rest.

Just shut your yaps, we're hard-pressed!

But still the best!

Back to the nest...

HERACROSSTOTODILETOGEPIMARIL LTYROGUESMOOCHUMMACHAMPXATU:

Uncle Callahan, I...

...HATE YOU!!

Kellie, wait!

Kellie!

Are you all right?

We're off!

Robbers!

The robbers are getting away!

Team Rocket?!

Let's go, Pikachu!

Eevee? Eevee?

Eevee!

Oh, no! What'll I do?!

Eevee! Hang in there! Eevee!

Let me see!

Is it...

It's fine. No need to worry.

Chansey, use Heal Pulse!

You'll be fine, Eevee!

Stop right there, Team Rocket!

It's the Twerp!

He's everywhere!

Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!

Wobbuffet, take it!

Eevee!

Eevee's all right now.

Speedy first aid helped a lot.

Eevee's leg still hurts a bit, but just be sure

not to aggravate it and allow it plenty of rest.

Thank you very much.

How's Kellie?

The doctor just finished examining her.

She's never had the best energy or stamina.

I guess the last couple of days

have taken their toll.

I'm so sorry. I'm responsible.

No. It was my fault for lying to her all the time.

How'd it go?

No luck. I'm afraid we lost them.

Wait is Eevee hurt?!

Yeah. It got caught in the panicked crowd after you left...

But now, Nurse Joy's treatment helped out a lot.

It'll be fine.

I'm glad.

That Team Rocket...

I'm afraid what Team Rocket stole was Effect Spore.

What about Officer Jenny?

I filed a report.

She told me that she was going to investigate.

I'm sure we're tired. What a day.

Let's get some rest.

How's Kellie?

She's sleeping.

I'm thinking of taking her back home with me tomorrow.

I see.

Where are you going?

I don't know.

But Kellie doesn't want to see my face anymore.

Not after I let her down.

You big idiot.

Don't follow me. Go away!

It isn't like you're my partner...

You're throwing words I said to you back in my face,

and I deserve it!

I'm giving up lying forever.

There's no point in following me.

Go someplace else. Anywhere.

I told all of you over and over not to follow me!

I'm not putting up with it!

Enough.

It's better being alone!

If I had tried to run...

...I could've protected you...

Understood.

Well done.

Hey, Father?

Margo!

What about the Wind Festival?

The committee just decided to reopen tomorrow.

We'll tighten security,

and any safety concerns will be addressed.

That's great. I'm glad!

No need to worry at all.

We'll call on Lugia tomorrow.

Night, Father!

Night!

To us!

Okay, let's see it!

But I thought you had it!

But I gave it to Meowth.

My paws never even touched it!

I gave it to you!

I called you and did a behind-the-back flip thing.

Genius, I was running in front of you the whole time!

Egads!

That means...

Then who did I fling it to?

HORRORS!!

Did I fling it to a Ghost type?!

HERACROSSMACHAMPSMOOCHUMTOTO DILETOGEPIMARILLTYROGUE:

HERACROSSMACHAMPSMOOCHUMTOTO DILETOGEPIMARILLTYROGUE:

Now what's going on here?

Never seen that before...

Risa?

Hi. It sounds like there's trouble outside, Ash.

Ash, up there!

The windmill...

They say the winds have died

down because the eternal flame is gone!

Gone? As in completely?

Yeah.

This isn't just about the festival, is it?

The eternal flame?

Come on!

Honestly! Why do we have to do this?

Whose fault does he think it is that

the presentation was a bust?

He'll hear you.

I knew we should've never released

our results with his! It would've been better.

Next time, say something before we all meet up!

Enough of that kind of talk!

There's no one who's more concerned about the

welfare of Pokémon than Toren.

Which one of you loves Pokémon more than Toren?

Does anyone know more about them than he does?

Anyone?!

I think the one thing needed in Pokémon research...

...is what he gives.

More than any of the rest of us.

They say the wind died.

Hey what's going on?

Kellie, are you feeling all right?

Where's my uncle?

He said he was going home.

I think...

...I said something bad to him.

Kellie...

It's all right.

Now cheer up! Your uncle doesn't mind at all!

Mr. Mayor!

It's Ash.

I heard the eternal flame is out!

Yes.

And that's why the wind...

Lugia sends it toward the eternal flame.

But now...

Does that mean that Lugia doesn't know where

to send the wind anymore?

Yes.

We need the eternal flame. By the end of the night.

No later than dawn tomorrow.

Without the wind, the city will eventually

run out of power.

No way...

Do you mind if I take a closer look?

Go.

I'm really afraid of high places!

What's up, buddy?

You figured something out!

Us, too?!

Good! It's nice and lively!

We can sell every one

of these for a good price!

Pokémon hunting is a good thing...

Love the great outdoors!

It's Pikachu.

Pikachu!

The crook that stole the eternal flame...

Is that Smeargle?

Eternal flame?

Yeah, it's been stolen.

Pikachu has been following the scent and

it led straight here.

Right here to Smeargle.

Smeargle's scent...

You mean Smeargle ink?

It can't be...

I initially thought it just slid off the table,

but now...

Somebody stole it!

I can't be sure, but if that's what happened...

You see, Smeargle uses its ink to mark its territory.

I thought I can use it for marking, but the chemical

is invisible after distilling its essence.

Except this light reveals it.

There. Case in point.

Incredible.

You did it, Pikachu!

If we follow these, it should lead us straight

to the culprit.

Then let's go!

Wonder if it's been called off.

It's all right!

I'll protect you this time.

Huh...

Who knew there was a place

like this in Fula City?

Let's hurry up and find that rare Pokémon!

There are a lot of Trainers

who saw that video...

Yeah.

Zeraora, they're after it!

Hey, there!

What are you two guys doing all the way out here?

Hi, little girl! You from Fula City?

Have you ever seen any Pokémon

you don't see anywhere else?

Sure I have!

You mean it?

So where?!

Uh...that way!

I never saw one like it!

Thanks for your help, sweet heart!

You're welcome. Any time.

What's that?

A Ditto and a Teddiursa.

No don't!!

If you don't hurry, that rare Pokémon will get away!

Quick!

We'll just take these two first.

Houndoom, go!

Go, Sneasel!

Houndoom, use Flamethrower!!

Sneasel, use Icy Wind!

Hide, Zeraora! Hurry up!

Hey, I've never seen

that Pokémon before!

It's the rare one!

Use Fire Fang!

Use Slash!

Zeraora! It's too much!

Your wounds still haven't healed yet!

Wow, it's fast!

Hey but it looks like

it's already wounded.

Yeah, now's our chance!

Sneasel, Ice Shard!

All right, Houndoom!

Follow that with Flamethrower!

Zeraora!

Zeraora! Wake up! Zeraora? They'll catch you!!

Time to wrap this up.

What?!

You okay, Margo?

You were awesome all by yourself.

Ash, you're here...

Father...

Everyone...

I am the mayor of Fula City!

Choose your next move wisely,

or I'll take legal action!

What do you think?

I think we leave.

Hey, you!

Following them would be dumb!

Stay here.

Oh, Father...

It isn't Zeraora's fault! I did everything!

That's Zeraora?

Yeah.

The stories said it vanished.

But there it is, in the flesh.

This is it...isn't it?

Do you have any idea how much trouble you have caused?

For everyone.

Margo...

It's only been a little while since I first met Zeraora.

I was playing with the Pokémon in the foothills

of the mountain...

Suddenly, there was a rockslide.

I should have been crushed by that boulder.

Zeraora is the one who protected me back then.

But by doing that, Zeraora was badly hurt!

It was all my fault!

So I vowed to help make it well again!

Everybody in town seems to be so afraid of it.

I thought that at least I could be its friend...

...and take care of it until it was all better again.

But then they said someone knew of a rare Pokémon.

And I knew...that everybody would try to catch it.

That's when...I thought that if the Wind Festival

was called off...

I knew it would cause problems if the eternal

flame was taken...

But I was gonna put it back the minute the

festival was canceled!

I'm sorry! I'm really, really sorry!

Margo...

Margo...

Thank you for protecting Zeraora.

There's something I need to talk to you about.

Regarding the truth about Zeraora.

Zeraora lived in this area for a long time.

It was master of the land, beloved by Pokémon.

And they all lived in peace.

So what did we humans do?

We cut down the forests that were home to the Pokémon...

Looking to enrich our lives.

The reason for the mountain fire? We did it.

That was fifty short years ago.

No way...

Fire was everywhere!

And people never thought for a moment of

the wild Pokémon living there.

Everyone was in a panic.

But Zeraora was the only one who never gave up on saving

the many Pokémon left behind.

Ever since, Zeraora has been deeply

angry with humankind.

I see. That's why.

You see, people did things that made Zeraora

trust them less and less.

All Zeraora wanted was to live in peace

with the forest Pokémon.

But huge numbers of Trainers gathered in

the forest to catch Zeraora!

The previous mayor, wishing to make up for

this injustice, decided to lie to the townspeople.

He said that Zeraora had vanished, and the mountain was

cursed. He forbade anyone from entering the mountain again.

He did it hoping to protect Zeraora. It was the only

thing people could think to do.

That explains it...

Very few people know about it. Very, very few.

And even fewer young people.

And that's...

...the truth about Zeraora.

What was that?

Smoke...

It could be related to the Wind Festival...

No.

That doesn't look good...

Here it comes!

What was that?!

Oh no... It just can't be...

Wait. Do you know about this?

The color of the smoke...and these symptoms...

It's possible that this is Effect Spore...

Hey, Team Rocket stole that!

Correct. Chansey, use Aromatherapy.

Tell me about this Effect Spore... What is it?

I was in the process of researching it.

Since it's a chemical version of the Ability, Effect

Spore, I kept it in a capsule.

What does that have to do with these Pidgey?

When you breathe in that chemical, it becomes a

poison that numbs your body.

That's what the smoke was.

Why would you ever make that?

During my research, I found that it's also effective

against certain human diseases.

Yes, it's me.

Your Honor, I have a report.

There's been an outbreak of an unknown smoke,

engulfing a quarter of Fula City.

It's spreading as we speak.

Anyone who breathes it experiences numbness,

so we classified it as a poison.

We have also ordered emergency evacuation

of all affected areas.

There's not a moment to lose!

Please return to the city!

Understood.

Oh, no, Father...

It's all my fault.

Let's go! Watching won't help anything!

So whaddaya say we go and protect Fula City?!

Easier said than done, but how do we do that?

We've all got Pokémon partners! Right by our sides!

Whatever you can't do, you can do it with a Pokémon pal!

When you're with a Pokémon, it's like your muscles and your

mind get a lot stronger!

And that's called--Pokémon power!!

What does "Pokémon power" mean?

Pokémon power, huh?

Right. Let's do it!

That's the spirit!

Professor, is there any way to disperse the smoke?

Now let's see. I could go back to the lab and produce

large quantities of the essence of the Pokémon

Ability Natural Cure...

But it's no use!

There's no way to spread it throughout the city!

What about using the wind to do it?

The wind?

There's the old generating station.

You're right....

But wait, I thought that it was broken down.

Harriet? If you can't fix it, no one can!

What do you mean?

You see, I built that power plant.

Granny, that is so cool!

I built the propeller so it could run backward, too.

If you run it in reverse,

it will cause wind to blow.

Question is, will it still spin?

I give it a fifty-fifty chance.

Fifty-fifty?

Yes! We can do this!

You scamps will have to help, too!

We're going to need some muscle!

Very well.

Toren and Harriet, you need to go to the power plant.

Risa, Margo, and I are going to stay here, and treat

Zeraora and the wild Pokémon, then we'll lead them to safety.

Smoke is heavier than air, so the tops of

the mountains should be safe.

And take this. Super Potion.

It will help heal injured Pokémon.

Thank you, Toren!

All right, everyone...

Good luck to you!

Remain calm and orderly!

Evacuate as quickly as possible!

Mia, where are you?! Is Kellie all right?!

She's fine. We're both doing just fine.

We're on the gondola ride.

We seem to have come to an emergency stop.

It hasn't moved in a while.

Uncle Callahan! Help us...

Kellie! Mia!

How can I help them?

So stupid...

Such a stupid liar!

I told you to go away...

What's with you?!

What do you think we can do?

All I ever do is lie, then run away.

We're weak. Both of us.

Hey! What's that for? Stop!

But why?

Sudowoodo...

You're not lying.

You're actually willing to help me.

Thank you. Sudowoodo.

I'm taking back my pledge.

I'll do whatever it takes...

If it helps to keep the ones I love safe!

Together we can't be beat!

We'll save Kellie and Mia as a team!

Say what?! Now you tell me!

Status!

Right.

More than half the city is already

engulfed in smoke.

We are sending evacuees to the Pokémon Center,

but it won't be enough.

Mr. Mayor, what are our countermeasures?

We'll use Pokémon power!

Toren!

Where have you been?

We've been given evacuation orders, too.

I see. Sorry.

Give us a hand with these research materials would ya.

What's the matter?

Toren, are you listening?

No. I mean...

Pokémon power.

Pokémon power. Pokémon power! Pokémon power!

Toren, would you hurry, time's up!

Listen to me, NOW!

I know you all hate me!

I easily get flustered, and I can't always speak!

You probably think of me as some weirdo!

But right now, I really need your help!

There's still a way for us to save our home!

I won't run!

I want to use my research to save people and Pokémon!

Toren?

What?!

You're always like this.

Always putting other people and Pokémon first.

This time is no different.

I respect you as a researcher.

So what do you want us to do? We'll help you.

Whatever it is, you know we'll get it done!

Just say the word.

Let us know what you need.

You mean it?

I want to make massive quantities of the

essence of Natural Cure!

You heard him! Let's get started right away!

There it is! That's the one!

Where is it hiding?

Come out, Zeraora!

Don't let it escape! Catch it!

All done.

Zeraora, you're awake!

It's okay. The bad men are gone now!

Margo, wait!

Zeraora, it's okay!

We don't wanna hurt you!

Well, I got it.

Where's the professor?

He hasn't arrived yet.

Hey! What do I do to get rid of all that smoke?!

Well, it's you!

Granny?

So, we want to get the former power plant

to disperse the poison.

Kellie is in danger!

So let's get to that formal whatever it is!

What was that?

It's by the transformer.

It could be the smoke caused a short circuit...

Granny!

The power's going out...

We've gotta get outta here or we're toast!

Nothing changes, DOES IT?!

Hurry up! Come on!

We made it...

It follows that we're saved...

It's a power outage!

No, you can't!

Not after all the work we've done! Please, I'm begging you...

What is it, Chansey?

Granny! Are you all right?!

Prepare a bed for her. Quickly!

Sir!

Don't bother. I'm fine.

We can't wait for the professor, so let's go!

We'll need time to get that junk started.

Okay, then let's go! I'll take you there!

Right after toxic smoke

appeared in town, a power transformer exploded,

creating a gigantic mountain fire!

Here you go.

Thanks a lot.

The power's out, plunging

the area into total darkness!

To everyone in Fula City,

be careful!

Zeraora?

Where do you think it went?

It went to rescue the Pokémon there...

Wait!

Risa!

I'll go after Margo!

You've gotta get that back to where it belongs!

And call Lugia!

Wait a minute!

Nobody can get it over there faster than you, Risa!

It's something only you can do!

You can do this!

I know it!

I really can't!

I mean...

I can't...

...run anymore...

Eevee!

Why do you keep trying so hard?!

I mean...

What you can't do on your own, you can do with a

Pokémon pal there by your side!

Together...

With a Pokémon... I can do anything...

You showed me just how determined you are...

So I have to be the same.

This time, it's my turn to try hard!

Let's deliver it. Together!

Right!

Come here!

Now hang on tight...

Get ready for our Pokémon power!!

I've got to think!

Think! Think!

I've got the knowledge if I can just THINK!

I've got to think harder than anyone in the world!

Lum Berries? That's it!

Excuse me!

It's these! They can do it!

May I please have all these berries?

To save the city!

Just a little longer...

It'll be okay.

Uncle Callahan will come and save us!

Got it. So we just have to get the place running.

Then we use it to spread out the

professor's chemicals.

You've got a way with words.

What's this supposed to be?

The only thing we can do is find a different route.

But isn't the old power plant that

big rusty thing up there?

Let's spray all of it and bust through!

No, you can't!

I won't permit that!

What's the matter, Granny?

It was this hand...

If I held it out a little more...

Snubbull! Come back here!

Snubbull!!

This way! Hurry!

Snubbull!!

I should never have let it get away!

Granny!

Get it together! I don't know about the past...

...but we're with you now!

Thank you, Snubbull!

My beloved, you protected the key.

You probably did it just for this very moment!

So, now it's my turn!

Scamps! Will you do this with me?

Then let's all show 'em what for!

Give 'em our Pokémon power!!

Can you hit it from the air?

Right!

Whatever else it may have done,

it managed to open up a path!

What'll I do?

If I just keep running from the smoke,

I'll never get there!

Risa!

Rick?!

I'll be your navigator!

I'm searching for a route to the eternal flame pedestal

that keeps you out of the smoke!

Found it!

Why are you doing this?

Hold on! Just how do you know where I am?!

Never mind! Just keep running!

Right!

See the woods in front of you? Go in!

It should slow down the smoke!

Right!

Zeraora!

I knew it!

Look out!!

I'm all right!

You hate people, right?

You can't trust us, right?

That's a lonely way to live.

Don't you think? So I want to be your friend!

Yeah...

So stubborn...

Pikachu, use Thunderbolt!

Pikachu, Iron Tail!

Use Quick Attack!

We did it!

All right! We did it, we did it!

Toren!

The mayor sent a car. It's here.

Your Honor!

Preparations are complete.

Good.

This is countermeasure headquarters.

We request everyone evacuate due

to the Effect Spore smoke.

If there are any people or Pokémon that are in need of

assistance, I'm asking for those nearby to give them

whatever assistance they can.

We have also dispatched a countermeasures team to help

solve further problems.

We will spare no effort to make the citizens

of our fair city safe again!

I'd also like to take this opportunity to

make a request, as mayor.

The outbreak of the Effect Spore smoke

has caused a mountain fire.

Once our team's plan is in place, I ask that as

many of you as possible please join me...

...in working to help us put out the fire.

For many years, our city has lived a lie.

But this time, I would like for the people

of this town, together with the Pokémon always by our sides...

...to join hands in fighting this fire!

This place is unbelievable!

So how do you intend to get it

running without electricity?

With this!

Would you look at that?

Good boy!

Is she serious?

Now it's time for brute strength!

We're gonna need everybody on this!

Listen up! You have to push that all at once!

Wait, Granny! This runs on muscle power?!

You have some other power handy?

You're kidding...

Hey! Don't just stand there! Positions!

And we're off!

All together now...

And...go!

And...push!

Okay...

YEAH!

Pikachu, are you okay?

Zeraora! Please stop this, please?

Deep down, you know it's true...

You know there are people who aren't so bad!

Please trust us!

Zeraora!!

Oh, no!

Pikachu...

All right! Glad everyone's safe!

Hey Ash! You scared us!

Zeraora...

Good.

Now we're friends, right?

Sorry to keep you waiting!

I finished it. See?

Callahan?

Oh, Professor, look at this! I got this lump moving!

That can't be the truth!

Let's call it a half-truth!

This is incredible! I can see this working.

It'll work!

Now, to spread this onto the propellers...

Leave it to me.

I can throw it.

Now wait just a minute!

You're, you're going to throw this into that?!

What about a ladder?

The ladders all got burned up!

Great...

Professor. Come on. This is the only way.

What's going on?!

Okay, gang! Get this moving again!

This time we'll turn the propeller!

Callahan... my colleagues put all their

efforts into making this, and it's all that exists!

Okay, I get it.

I'll make sure it gets there for the sake

of my little Kellie!

Right! Push with all your might!

This looks pretty bad.

All this debris will break the ball before it even

gets to the propeller.

Do you know a different way?

Okay, pal!

I trust you...

...partner!

Now, give it everything you got!

Now turn, baby, turn!!

Look at that...

It worked!

The city's people and Pokémon need to know

of this right away!

Yes sir.

This is some blast!

Toren did it!

Hey! Look outside!

What do you know? They all did it!

Professor, did you see that?

Of course I did! It was incredible! One shot!

You're a genius!

It was all because of Sudowoodo!

Too early for celebrating just yet...

This mess isn't over!

The fire isn't going out!

It's okay!

We'll just keep it contained until Risa can call Lugia!

Isn't that...

Take half and go around the back!

It's Father!

Margo!

It's Zeraora!

I'd never seen it...

It's okay, Zeraora!

This time, everyone's here to protect the forest.

Don't worry!

All right! Get going!

Ash...

You're all right!

This situation's not good.

The sprinkler system!

If it's not broken, we can get it to work!

I'll ask the Electric-type Pokémon

for assistance!

Let's put this fire out!

Right! We can help, too!

Zeraora? Listen to me.

There are bad people...like those hunters out there...

...and I admit we all make bad mistakes sometimes.

But I want you to realize that we're not all

like those bad people.

Ash said something...

People can be pretty weak by themselves.

But when they team up with Pokémon, it creates energy!

I was wondering...

If it's also true...

If Pokémon felt the same way about us...

Well...I think that it'd be nice.

Try it now!

We're counting on you!

Okay, work with me!

All right!

Hey, Ash!

Give it your all!

You can do it!

You can do it!

Zeraora!

Please, Zeraora...

If Pokémon felt the same way about us...well...

I think that it'd be nice.

Just a little more...

It's almost there!

Go on!

Just a little more!

You can do it!

I know you can!

Zeraora!!

Zeraora!

No!!

Zeraora!

Zeraora, wake up, please!

Thank goodness!

Lugia?

Lugia, could you make the rain fall?

We need to put the fire out!

Please, will you?

Lugia.

Whaddaya know? I saw the real thing!

Risa got to the eternal flame just in time!

Eternal flame?

She made it there so quickly!

Yeah! She said that she'd make sure Lugia showed up!

You've gotta admire that girl's sheer moxie!

Once again our city was saved by Zeraora and Lugia.

Not quite...

This time, everyone saved it!

Fellow citizens! The only way we were able to reopen the

festival for its final day...

...is through the complete cooperation of all of

you, people and Pokémon alike.

During the day's events, I'd like to share what I heard.

A young man said if one can't do something alone,

one can with a Pokémon.

Those citizens and Pokémon who helped put out the

fires, along with many others, proved those words are true.

My wish is for this city to be a place to live together!

And now, our city is that much closer to that.

In order to see that realized, I revoke the lie about

the disappearance of Zeraora.

I hereby proclaim that we will live with Zeraora in peace!

There are strange and wonderful forms of life

inhabiting this planet.

They can be found in the skies, in the sea,

in forests and towns everywhere.

Indeed, these creatures can

be found the world over!

They work and play with us,

and we all help each other.

They live with us and around us, and even battle with us!

They form all kinds of different bonds with us, as

they live in peace alongside us.

Each living being has its own dream.

And there are as many adventures to be experienced as

there are living beings!

And the name of all these incredible creatures?

We call them...Pokémon!

When I was young

I'd lie alone

And listen to the wind blow

Now I know

'Cause now I'm grown

Just how many dreamers

It takes to keep a dream alive,

and I I believe

In the power of us

Us I I believe

in the power of us

With you by my side

I'm ready to run again

With you by my side

I'm ready to run

I'm ready

With you by my side

I know I can win again

So many dreamers

I know we'll keep the dream alive,

'cause I I believe

In the power of us

All the best us North, south,

east and west us

I I believe

In the power of us

Sea to sea us

You and me and we us

And so...

Fula City created a nature preserve!

Risa?!

Tell me! How in the world did you know where I was?

And it had better be the truth...

It's really kind of high-tech...

I wanted pictures of the Wind Festival...

So I uh...

Pikachu?

I wonder what kind of Pokémon we'll meet next?
