[Narrator] Zoids!

Equipped with a metal body,

animal instincts, and a fighting spirit,

these fierce creatures roam the world

and rule it with their iron might!

But when a human joins forces with a Zoid,

they form an unmatchable bond and unlock

a hidden power that knows no limits!

They call it...

Wild Blast!

[furious growl]

[pained groan]

My head.

Where'd he go? Come at me, Drake! I dare you!

[Battalia] Just relax.

Huh?

Take it easy. It's over now.

He's gone. We're glad you're back.

[stunned breath]

[hungry groan]

[deep breath]

[Analog] Somebody help!

Please! Anybody!

I'm so hungry.

[pained yell]

[shivering]

I really hope I'm not getting sick...

[sneezing]

Let me look in my bag and see if I have-

[pained yell]

My back is still sore from that hug you gave me.

I love this new you!

Hang on. Personal space, please.

[pained groan]

Birds only behave like this when they've spotted their prey.

You're the smallest so you'll be the first to get picked off.

That's right, you'd be tasty dipped in mustard.

I'm your teammate, not a hot dog!

You're lucky I can't turn my neck!

-I'm sorry, I'm just starving! -I'm sorry, I'm just grumpy!

[sneezing]

[Maverick] Mommy, save me!

[wondering grunts]

Alright. Do ya hear that? help is on the way!

You need to get the wax out of your ears.

[Analog] Tell me what's going on! I can't see!

[terrified yell]

Uh... Should we be worried?

Nah.

[Analog] Eureka, I can pivot. Let me take a look.

Heyo? Feel free to step in anytime!

We don't wanna...

I'm begging you!

[relieved exhale]

Feels like I missed something.

Yeah...

[Maverick] Wassup, my homies?

[wondering grunts]

You didn't have to butt in, I had it under control.

Don't tell anyone but I'm a secret agent with a black belt.

Who's down to take a selfie?

Hey, hang on!

Don't worry. Maybe I'll let ya get in on the next one.

Trust me, you'll get likes for days.

Check it out internet,

I'm hanging out with the Liger and we're basically BFFs.

[Maverick] Whoa. There's a dude I wouldn't wanna mess with.

I'm gonna skip on the pic.

Surprise, surprise. We're never cool enough.

Same for you, Needle.

You're lookin' totally fab but I don't wanna cramp my profile.

Gotta work on your compliments, buddy!

Where's a good spot for an action shot?

The light's not quite right here.

I can see it now!

You'll pose with your claws out pouncing in mid-air!

[flying yell]

Or not...

I got a backup plan though!

Would you let me ride on your shell for a little bit?

[creepy laugh]

Hey! Leave my Zoid alone!

He isn't your chauffeur!

[pained yell]

Wanna go for a spin?

Wait a second! Hold on! This isn't what I meant!

[flying yell]

Fine. No harm in asking, am I right?

What are you doing here anyway? Could you scram?

You're weirding out my all-star crew.

He must be from a different planet.

Listen kid, we're in rough shape.

[sneezing]

[shivering]

[pained howl]

You pretending to be a zombie?

No, but if I could eat your brain I would.

And I'd watch if I could move!

Oh I get what's going on.

You need some dinner!

And I know just the guy for the job.

Ta-da!

You gotta drink it all up!

[disgusted groans]

[pleased laugh]

You happy?

Betcha you didn't expect this from a popular guy like me!

Right?

We sure didn't. But you should come up with another flavor.

I feel great.

Same here!

They say laughter is the best medicine.

But they've never tried my stuff!

[Maverick] Haha! Who's in charge of writing sayings?

I should hit 'em up with a complaint!

Like yo, you just got served!

I thought this guy was getting normal, but no...

You still haven't told us your name yet.

Seriously?

You're obviously not with it

if you don't recognize me from your feed.

I'm Maverick.

Well, it's a pleasure to meet you.

So, if you're a rider where's your Zoid?

[Maverick] I'm kinda in between Zoids at the moment.

[gasps]

[Maverick] I'm looking for the right match,

you know, one that fits my style.

I can't just go for any old hunk of junk. I have standards.

I've been travelling throughout Ferroterra

searching high and low for the perfect fit,

'cuz guess what? I'm a catch! I deserve the best and...

Could you zoom out?

It doesn't look like they're getting along.

Check the other pictures.

[shocked gasps]

[Battalia] I can't un-see that!

I'm getting the feeling he just talks a big game.

He's obviously not a real rider.

'scuse me, I am too!

It's cool, there's nothing wrong with that.

Mhmm.

Oh, I know.

How 'bout you hand over one of your Zoids?

Yeah, no.

[Maverick] Well, your Zoids saved me once before...

Maybe they can save me again!

[alarmed yells]

Come to me!

So, what do you think that was supposed to prove?

Maybe testing the theory of gravity?

Why didn't my Zoids come help me?

'Cuz they're not yours!

[Maverick] Fine. You win. I'll be real with you.

Zoids don't really vibe with me. I've never even had one.

We can tell.

Why am I cursed?

[Maverick] Alright, you asked for it!

I'll give ya my whole life story. I was born in--

Could you make it snappy?

[Maverick] Okay, here goes.

For as long as I can remember I wanted to be a rider

but my parents just didn't get it.

My Dad was always like "Take over the family business"

and I was like "No way, man"

and then one day I packed a bag

and walked out to follow my dreams.

That said, for whatever reason, I haven't had much luck.

I've been bitten, crushed, launched,

everything you can think of.

All this time away and I still have nothing to show for it.

It's been rough.

I promised to go back after two years if I didn't succeed,

and it's coming down to the wire.

I can't return empty-handed, but I'm also getting super homesick.

[sigh]

I wanna see my parents again.

I bet they miss you.

Yeah, me too.

Aw, I wish we could help you.

Well you can, and I'll tell you how!

It's super easy. You just gotta make me your leader-

Mmm, no.

[Maverick] What if it was only for a day?

We'll go to my village and play pretend!

Please, I'm begging you!

This is sad.

Would it be rude to run?

[Arashi] Alright, we're in!

[alarmed gasps]

You helped us out, so we owe you a favor.

Besides, I've been in a school play before. I can handle this.

That's awesome, bro!

Or, should I say teammate?

No, you shouldn't. Save it for the big day.

If we're gonna go through with this

we'll need to rehearse.

You think so?

Oh, for sure.

[Battalia] Step one, hopping on a Zoid.

Yeah, I know I said I was down,

but on second thought I don't want him scuffing Liger.

He's the most challenging to control anyways.

Tanks is gentle, how about we start with him?

Look out below!

[Maverick] I'm coming in hot!

[excited yell]

We're back to the drawing board.

[Maverick] I don't get it, why won't you listen to me Needle?

I'm a natural leader!

If we're gonna be besties,

you gotta be nice to me no matter what.

This is going to be harder than I thought.

[Maverick] Listen! I'm your new rider.

[jumping yell]

You'll love me.

[pained groan]

Saw that coming.

Come on!

I'm trying so hard here; what do you want me to do?

Throw in the towel, maybe?

[Maverick] No.

I won't leave this spot 'til we figure this out.

[Maverick] I'm not giving up.

I don't follow.

How does camping help?

I'm sleeping at his feet to show him that I'm his bestie.

Isn't that how sleepovers work?

I've never had one, so I don't know.

[unimpressed exhales]

Almost!

[Arashi] Listen!

Here's the thing.

This is tough... But, let's set things straight.

You don't need to prove that you're cool.

Zoids are looking for a real connection. You got that?

I guess so.

Be yourself. A bond only forms if you open up your heart.

Keep talking...

[Arashi] Stand up for what you believe in.

Put everything on the line.

Yeah, I'm following. Thanks dude.

Where did that speech come from? It's great.

I think he came up with it on his own.

Wow.

[Arashi] One last thing.

Never, ever give up.

Hear you loud and clear!

[Arashi] Where you goin'?

Hold on!

[chuckling]

[alarmed yell]

[yelling]

[Maverick] I don't get it! What am I doing wrong?

Everything!

[chattering]

[Maverick] Hey, who's that stranger?

'Sup, everybody! It's me, Maverick!

Wow, look at him! I barely recognize the kid.

I didn't think he'd return!

[laughing]

You happy to see me?

[Maverick] Who wants an autograph?

[gasp]

You came home!

Aw, bring it in mom! It's so good to see you!

You have no idea how much we've missed you.

I'm sorry. I'm just glad you're here now.

Aw, it's okay.

C'mon, there's no need for you to cry!

I've got some awesome news for you.

You're staying for good?

Don't be silly!

You're all looking at a professional rider, folks!

[surprised gasp]

Really?

Still don't believe me, well check this out!

[whistling attempt]

Is that supposed to be our cue?

[Analog] We should've practiced this part.

Whatever, it's show time.

[scared chatter]

[terrified yells]

Hey, I didn't come all this way to get snubbed like this.

There's nothing to be scared of!

Do it just like we rehearsed it!

Villagers, do not be afraid.

Rest assured, with Maverick you're in safe hands!

Without further ado, I'm pleased to introduce you to his Zoid.

Put your hands together for the legendary Liger!

This I gotta see.

Wow! I didn't think he had what it took.

And look! He even has assistants working for him!

[excited yelling]

Yay! I have so many ideas for my Welcome Back Party! Who's in?

[excited cheering]

[Maverick's Dad] It's no time to celebrate!

Please honey, be nice.

Dad! What's the deal?

There are reports of Dark Metal Empire forces

patrolling the mountains.

To make things worse

there's been an increase in wildfires near my fields.

So, excuse me if we have more serious matters to tend to.

Why do you have to ruin my special day?

You hear that?

Sounds like trouble.

If you're as important as you claim to be,

how about explaining to us what you can do to protect the town?

Okay, but why tell you when I can show you!

Get ready to be dazzled.

You won't even wanna blink, because that's how cool I am!

Alright ladies and gentlemen!

Brace yourselves 'cuz this might blow your socks off!

We haven't seen a busker in a while!

[amazed cheering]

[Maverick] Thank you! You're too kind!

[amazed yells]

[Maverick] In a cooking competition,

slow and sizzly wins the race.

That's why I always count on Tanks.

Stop that, he's not a griddle! You wash him when you're done!

For my next trick I will be your lion tamer.

Step back, only I can control this ferocious beast.

I don't get it. Why is he dressed like a magician?

This show doesn't make any sense!

Say hi! Aw c'mon, don't be shy.

[roar]

[alarmed yell]

Easy!

Knock it off! Can't you see he doesn't like that?

[wobbling cries]

[worried chatter]

[alarmed gasp]

He's doing it all on his own! I'm so proud.

[disapproving growl]

Yo, Dad! Admit it! I totally rock.

[Villager] Everyone, look!

It's happening again!

Those aren't wild.

Think Deleters are behind this?

For sure.

Please, don't go!

My Dad's a healer and that's where he grows his medicine.

[Battalia] You think that's where he's off to?

[furious growl]

Liger! You gotta take me up to the mountains!

Come on!

We have to hurry or there won't be anything left in his field.

I don't wanna let him down!

[roar]

[surprised gasps]

They're on it...

We gotta follow them.

Right!

[Deleter] Keep digging. I'm sure there's a Zoid buried here.

Clear it!

Oh no!

Wait.

[Analog] This is a job for Tanks!

I bet you didn't know his shell was fire-resistant!

It's not just for warding off attacks.

I learned something new!

Okay, lead the way Needle!

[wondering grunts]

[roar]

The boss isn't gonna believe this.

It's our big break!

You are messing with the wrong guy!

[horrified gasp]

We were too slow!

[Maverick] Do you understand what you've done?

My dad's amazing.

He grows and makes medicine for the whole town.

[Maverick] Now that you've burned his crop to a crisp,

he can't do his job.

It's okay.

Growing up I thought the only way to stand out

was to become a Zoid Rider.

[Maverick] I was wrong.

I know who the coolest guy in the world is and it's my Dad.

[Maverick] I'll make him proud.

You are gonna pay! I'm here and I won't back down.

Get ready, I'm coming at you with all I got!

Isn't that cute?

Let's crush him!

Aw, yeah!

[flying yell]

[gasps]

Maverick!

You saved me...

[Maverick's Dad] How dare you!

Do you think I enjoy watching you put yourself in danger?

I was worried sick about you.

I missed you, dad!

What? At a time like this!

Hey! Wake up! Come on! Enough!

[Arashi] That was so brave.

You must be proud!

Our leader's got courage, don't you think?

Of course he does.

Why don't you leave the rest to us?

[Deleter] We'll finish the excavation later.

Focus on capturing Liger.

[battle cries]

He's my Zoid-

Uh. I mean, Maverick's!

[Arashi] Liger! Fire up!

Let's show 'em what a real blaze looks like!

It's time to crank up the heat!

[powered-up yell]

Unleash Wild Blast!

Are you thinkin' what I'm thinkin'?

[Arashi] Take him down!

King Claw!

Deleters! Retreat!

Ha!

[Analog] Arashi, look!

[Arashi] Alright, we better put that out quick!

[Battalia] What's the plan?

[Arashi] Follow my lead.

[realizing grunt]

[shocked gasps]

[Analog] No, we didn't...

You can drop the act...

Thank you for playing along with my son's story.

You're very generous.

So, you saw right through us, huh?

You put on a great show,

but I know him and he's simply not cut out to be a Zoid rider.

I realize that.

[amused laugh]

[Maverick's Dad] I'm glad he had the experience

so he could learn for himself.

[wondering grunts]

I can tell he thinks a lot about the man he wants to become.

He's finally recognizing the value of the family business

and getting involved.

[laughing]

Happy to hear that 'cuz his healing skills aren't half bad!

Oh yeah, is he out working in the field right now?

That's one way of putting it.

[laughing]

I cannot believe I didn't come up with this

excavation idea first.

Like they said, this is a prime spot.

I can already smell him!

Aw, man! My Zoid's been right under my nose all along!

Let's hope!

'cuz I'm ready to put everything on the line for him.

That's right! I'll dig all night if I have to!

[Maverick's Dad] He has a way to go,

but I'm grateful to have him back home for the time being.

Well, thank you.

I know he can be a challenge to deal with

but you still decided to help.

Honestly, it was nothing.

I beg to differ.

I saw Liger scare away the Pincers flying nearby.

He was defending my son in his own way.

He cares about Maverick like no Zoid ever has.

[chuckling]

And on top of that, he's given us something to remember him by.

[wondering grunts]

I know it's posed, but I'm still proud.

[Analog] Aw, nice.

[Arashi] When did he take it?

[Battalia] Beats me. He's sneaky!

I hope to see you again very soon.

Yeah, me too!

Catch you later!

Tell Maverick we say bye!

So, team? You stoked to be back on the road too?

[agreeing nods]

Yeah, me too!

[Maverick] See ya!
