CAPTIONING MADE POSSIBLE BY WARNER BROS.

I AM MEWTWO.

I AM UNLIKE OTHER POKéMON.

THIS IS MY STORY.

A TEAM OF SCIENTISTS WORKING TO CREATE

THE WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL POKéMON

DISCOVERED A FOSSILIZED REMNANT OF MEW

AND FROM IT, CREATED ME.

RADIO GIOVANNI'S HELICOPTER. TELL HIM WHAT'S HAPPENED!

QUIET.

LET US HEAR ITS PSYCHIC POWERS.

[ALL CRY OUT]

AAH! AAH!

SOON THE TEAM ROCKET LEADER

WHO HAD ORDERED MY CREATION

TRAINED ME TO CONTROL MY ABILITIES.

BUT HE VIEWED ME SOLELY AS HIS PERSONAL PROPERTY.

YOU WERE CREATED BY HUMANS

TO OBEY HUMANS.

I WAS NOT BORN A POKéMON.

I WAS CREATED.

AND MY CREATORS HAVE USED AND BETRAYED ME,

SO I STAND ALONE.

AFTER DESTROYING HIS LABORATORY,

I CREATED MY OWN.

I LURED POKéMON TRAINERS TO MY ISLAND FORTRESS

TO CREATE A POWERFUL NEW BREED OF POKéMON

AND WREAK VENGEANCE ON HUMANS.

I SEIZED THEIR POKéMON AND CLONED THEM,

AS I HAD BEEN CLONED FROM MEW.

BUT SOON I ENCOUNTERED MY NEMESIS.

MEW. MEW, MEW, MEW. MEW, MEW.

A GREAT BATTLE ENSUED.

A BATTLE TO DETERMINE WHO WOULD RULE:

THE POKéMON BORN INTO THIS WORLD

OR THE CLONED POKéMON CREATED IN MINE.

THE CLASHES WERE BRUTAL,

AND AS MEW AND I SUMMONED ALL OF OUR STRENGTH

FOR ONE FINAL CONFRONTATION,

THE YOUNG TRAINER CRIED OUT

FOR THE FIGHT TO CEASE.

OH! STOP!

HIS SELFLESS ACTIONS PUZZLED ME.

HE WAS A HUMAN WHO VALUED ALL POKéMON,

WHETHER BORN OR CREATED.

OUR BATTLING CEASED.

FINALLY, MY EYES HAD BEEN OPENED,

AS HAD MY HEART.

THE POKéMON CLONES AND I

LEFT TO FIND A PLACE WHERE WE COULD LIVE IN PEACE,

AND I USED MY PSYCHIC POWERS

TO WIPE OUT THE MEMORY OF OUR STRUGGLE.

NOW I AM FORGOTTEN

BY ALL BUT THE ONE WHO CREATED ME,

THE ONE WHOSE DESIRE TO CONTROL ME

STILL BURNS.

[ELECTRONIC BLIP]

[ELECTRONIC BLIP]

THESE ARE LIVE SATELLITE PICTURES

OF A REMOTE AREA OF THE JOHTO REGION.

EXTREME WEATHER MAKES IT UNINHABITABLE

FOR PEOPLE.

BUT KEEP WATCHING.

HUH?

Giovanni: I FOUND YOU.

THIS PLACE IS BEAUTIFUL.

BUT WHAT RIGHT HAVE I TO JUDGE?

WHAT DO I KNOW OF THIS WORLD AND ITS BEAUTY?

I AM NOT LIKE OTHER CREATURES.

I AM NOT OF THIS WORLD.

WE ARE CLONES, COPIES, PRODUCTS OF SCIENCE.

WE ARE OUTCASTS,

SO WE MUST LIVE AS OUTCASTS

IF WE ARE TO LIVE AT ALL.

WE SHALL STAY HERE, FAR FROM THE WORLD,

FAR FROM MAN.

IT IS OUR ONLY HOPE.

FOR IF WE DO NOT LIVE IN SECRET,

WE SHALL NEVER LIVE IN PEACE.

Narrator: TODAY ASH AND HIS FRIENDS

BEGIN AN UNFORGETTABLE ADVENTURE

AS THEY APPROACH AN INTRIGUING LANDMARK

IN THE FAR REACHES OF THE JOHTO REGION.

AH.

OH! THAT MUST BE--

IT MUST BE.

PIKA.

THAT'S IT, ALL RIGHT-- PURITY CANYON,

THE JOHTO REGION'S GREATEST NATURAL WONDER.

YEAH. NO WONDER.

WONDER HOW WE GET ACROSS IT.

THE BOOK SAYS IT'S ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE ON FOOT.

THE ONLY WAY TO GET ACROSS IS BY BUS.

BUT IT ONLY MAKES THE TRIP

ONCE A MONTH.

Misty: WHEN DOES IT LEAVE?

LUNCHTIME TODAY.

TOO BAD WE WON'T BE ABLE TO GO.

WHY NOT? WE STILL HAVE TIME TO MAKE IT.

I KNOW.

BUT I'VE BEEN PLANNING TO TRY

A BRAND-NEW RECIPE AND MAKE

SPICY PIZZA PANCAKES FOR LUNCH.

REALLY?! PIKA!

Misty: LOOK.

HUH? HUH?

THAT MUST BE THE BUS DOWN THERE.

I GUESS SO.

WHAAH! COME ON, MAYBE WE CAN CATCH IT.

[THUNDER]

[PANTING, GRUNTING]

OH, NO, IT'S RAINING.

OH--AH.

HEY, I KNOW. I'LL USE MY TRUSTY FRYING PAN...

AS A DRYING PAN.

HA HA HA.

LOOK AT THOSE TWERPS RUNNING AROUND IN THE RAIN.

IMAGINE COMING TO PURITY CANYON

AND NOT HAVING THE FORESIGHT

TO BRING SHELTER FROM THE INEVITABLE STORMS.

IT'S A GOOD THING I PACKED THIS UMBRELLA.

MMM.

YEAH, BUT WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO

WHEN THE BAD WEATHER HITS?

THIS IS BAD WEATHER.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

I'M TALKING ABOUT TYPHOONS.

TYPHOONS? TYPHOONS?

ACCORDING TO THE GUIDEBOOK,

"THE UNIQUE GEOLOGIC FORMATIONS

"AND ATMOSPHERIC CONDITIONS OF PURITY CANYON

"CREATE SEVERE AND UNPREDICTABLE WEATHER.

"BECAUSE BLIZZARDS, THUNDERSTORMS,

"AND TYPHOONS ARE LIKELY,

WE ADVISE TOURISTS TO AVOID THIS AREA."

WELL, I DON'T BELIEVE A WORD OF IT.

THOSE GUIDES SENSATIONALIZE EVERYTHING!

[RUMBLING]

EEP! WHAT'S THAT SOUND?

AAH! OOH!

HOW MANY TIMES MUST OUR PLANS BE DESTROYED--

BEFORE THEY'RE ALLOWED TO BE TRIED?

THE ANSWER, MY FRIENDS, IS BLOWIN' IN THE WIND.

All: WE'RE BLASTING OFF AGAIN!

IT DOESN'T LOOK LIKE THERE ARE

ANY MORE PASSENGERS FOR THIS MONTH'S TRIP.

I KNOW IT'S A LITTLE EARLY TO LEAVE,

BUT THE BUS IS FULL,

AND THE WEATHER'S GETTING BAD.

IT SURE IS. WE'D BETTER GET GOING.

BYE.

HEY, WAIT FOR US!

OOH. OW. OH!

OH--OH--OH!

AAH! [CRASH]

[MOANING]

ARE YOU OK?

YEAH. DO YOU KNOW IF THE BUS TO PURITY CANYON

STOPS HERE?

YES, IT DOES, BUT I'M AFRAID

YOU JUST MISSED IT.

FORGET THE BUS. IF YOU'D LIKE TO STAY DRY,

THERE'S PLENTY OF ROOM UNDER MY FRYING PAN

IF WE GET REAL CLOSE.

HUH?

OW!

I CAN SMELL WHAT YOU'RE COOKING UP.

NOT THE EAR!

THERE'S GOTTA BE A WAY

TO CATCH UP WITH THAT BUS.

NOT WHEN THE WEATHER GETS LIKE THIS.

THE WIND AND THE RAIN ARE TREACHEROUS HERE,

AND THE ROADS CAN BECOME INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS.

IT'S HARD ENOUGH TO MAKE IT BY BUS.

ON FOOT, YOU DON'T HAVE A CHANCE.

WHY DON'T WE ALL GET OUT OF THIS RAIN?

[GASPS]

[PASSENGERS SCREAMING]

[POWER SURGES]

OH. HUH?

Woman: THIS IS LIKE SOME KIND OF MIRACLE.

Man: I CAN'T BELIEVE IT.

HOW COULD THIS HAPPEN?

PIKA, PIKA. PIKACHU.

YOU ASK, "WHY DID I SAVE THOSE HUMANS?"

PIKA.

FOR OUR OWN PROTECTION.

AN ACCIDENT WOULD BRING HUMAN RESCUERS.

WE MIGHT BE DISCOVERED, AND OUR PEACE DISRUPTED.

MEOW. MEOW, MEOW, MEOW, MEOW, MEOW.

YOU BELIEVE THERE IS ANOTHER REASON?

THAT I FELT CONCERN?

THAT I CARED ABOUT THE SAFETY

OF THOSE HUMANS?

MEOW, MEOW.

I ASSURE YOU, THAT WAS NOT THE CASE.

I COULD NEVER FEEL COMPASSION

FOR HUMANS.

[ALL GROANING]

GOOD THING WE HAD THE UMBRELLA.

IF IT WASN'T FOR THE UMBRELLA--

WE'D BE OUT ON A LIMB.

THE COMPANY THAT RUNS THE BUSSES

BUILT THIS LODGE ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO.

PEOPLE WHO MISS THE BUS

STAY HERE UNTIL THE NEXT ONE

COMES AROUND IN A MONTH.

WE CAN'T STAY HERE A WHOLE MONTH.

ISN'T THERE ANY OTHER WAY

TO MAKE IT ACROSS THE VALLEY?

WELL, YOU COULD TAKE A BOAT DOWN PURITY RIVER

AT THE BASE OF THE CANYON

AND GET ACROSS THE VALLEY THAT WAY.

I'D LOVE TO TAKE A BOAT RIDE, LUNA.

MY FAMILY RUNS A WATER POKéMON GYM,

AND I JUST LOVE THE WATER.

WELL, IF YOU LOVE WATER,

YOU CAME TO THE RIGHT PLACE.

[BIRDS SINGING]

HAVE A DRINK, BROCK.

[SLURPS] MMM.

THIS WATER IS ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS.

THIS IS THE MOST DEVASTATINGLY DELICIOUS DRINK

I'VE EVER ENCOUNTERED.

[MOANING] HEY!

I WANNA TRY SOME, TOO.

AHH!

IT MAKES ME FEEL

REFRESHINGLY ALIVE AND TINGLY.

[MOANING] [MOANING]

I GUESS IT'S GOOD,

BUT HOW GOOD CAN WATER BE?

HERE. TAKE A TASTE AND FIND OUT.

IF YOU ASK ME, IT KINDA TASTES

LIKE SOMETHING'S BEEN SWIMMING AROUND IN IT.

WE SHOULD HAVE KNOWN BETTER

THAN TO ASK YOUR OPINION.

YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR PROBLEM IS?

Both: YOU HAVE NO TASTE!

WELL, MAYBE I DON'T,

BUT NEITHER DOES THIS WATER.

PIKACHU, TRY SOME OF THIS.

TOGE TOGE.

TOGE TOGE! PIKA PIKA!

LOOKS LIKE 4 OUT OF 5 WATER DRINKERS

PREFER PURITY RIVER WATER.

GUESS SO.

I CAN HARDLY WAIT TO RIDE ON A RIVER

THAT'S THIS SUPERPURE AND CLEAN.

COME ON, GUYS, LET'S GO!

I'M KIND OF GLAD

WE MISSED THE BUS, BROCK.

THE CURRENT'S DOING MOST OF THE WORK,

AND THE WATER'S CRYSTAL CLEAR.

IT'S FINE WITH ME, BUT I WOULDN'T BE SO HAPPY

ABOUT THIS NICE, CLEAN WATER IF I WERE YOU.

I KNOW HOW MUCH YOU HATE BUG POKéMON,

AND NICE, CLEAN WATER'S JUST WHAT BUG POKéMON LOVE.

THAT'S JUST FINE, BECAUSE THIS IS ONE TIME

I'M NOT GONNA LET BUG POKéMON BUG ME.

WHATEVER YOU SAY.

I SAY BRING ON THE BUGS.

HEY, LOOK THERE!

PIKA.

IT'S A CHRISTMAS TREE.

THAT'S NO CHRISTMAS TREE.

I-IS IT, BROCK?

NOT QUITE. THAT'S A FLOCK OF LEDIAN.

LEDIAN ARE BUG POKéMON.

THEY GLOW LIKE THAT ON CLEAR, STARRY NIGHTS.

LEDIAN, HUH?

YOU KNOW, GUYS, I THINK I'M STARTING

TO GET TO LIKE BUGS.

THESE ARE COOL KAKUNA.

I WOULDN'T BE SURPRISED TO SEE

A BUNCH OF BEEDRILL, TOO.

WITH THIS MANY KAKUNA HERE,

THERE'S GOTTA BE SOME AROUND.

[MISTY WHIMPERING]

AAH! AAH!

AAH! AAAHHH!

OHH.

YOU SHOULD'VE MENTIONED

YOU DON'T LIKE BUG POKéMON.

SORRY. NEXT TIME, YOU'LL KNOW.

IS THERE ANY OTHER WAY

ACROSS THE VALLEY?

I KNOW THERE'S ONE.

HUH? HUH?

THERE!

WE CAN GO STRAIGHT OVER THE TOP OF MOUNT CAINA.

OH, I DON'T THINK YOU WANT TO TAKE THAT ROUTE, BROCK.

WHY? IS IT TOO HARD TO GET UP THERE?

MOUNT CAINA IS THE HIGHEST MOUNTAIN

IN THE WHOLE JOHTO REGION.

AT THE TOP OF THE MOUNTAIN IS CLARITY LAKE.

IT GOES ON FOR MILES AND MILES,

AND THE WATER IS INCREDIBLY CLEAN AND CLEAR.

IT'S BEAUTIFUL, BUT HUMANS COULD NEVER LIVE THERE.

THE HEIGHT OF THE MOUNTAIN AND THE WEATHER

EVEN KEEP VISITORS AWAY.

THE ONLY ONES THAT LIVE UP THERE

ARE SOME WILD POKéMON,

TYPES THAT CAN THRIVE IN THE EXTREME CONDITIONS.

WELL, IF THERE ARE POKéMON UP THERE,

I SAY WE GO.

PIKA?

HEY, WHAT'S THAT?

FREE! FREE!

FREE! FREE!

IT'S A FLOCK OF BUTTERFREE!

TOGE TOGEPI!

SOME PEOPLE SAY THE BUTTERFREE COME

TO LAY THEIR EGGS ON MOUNT CAINA.

FREE! FREE!

Mewtwo: FOR THESE POKéMON, LIFE IS AS IT SHOULD BE.

THEY WERE BORN INTO THIS WORLD.

IT IS THEIR HOME.

THEY BELONG HERE.

WE WERE NOT BORN AS THEY WERE.

WE ARE NOT OF THIS WORLD.

WE DO NOT BELONG IN IT.

BUT WHERE DO WE BELONG?

PIKA PIKACHU! PIKA PIKA.

DO WE TRULY DESERVE TO LIVE HERE

AS MUCH AS THE OTHER POKéMON DO?

PIKA.

WE ARE UNLIKE THE OTHERS.

MEOW ME-MEOW.

MEOW ME-MEOW, ME-MEOW MEOW.

YES. I AM SURE THE MOON IS ROUND AND BRIGHT

TO THOSE BUTTERFREE,

JUST AS IT IS TO US

AND ANY OTHER POKéMON WHO SEES IT.

MEOW. MEOW ME-MEOW ME-MEOW ME-MEOW MEOW.

IF WE SEE THE MOON AS THEY DO,

WHY CAN WE NOT SEE THE EARTH AS THEY DO?

YES. WHY?

I SURE WOULD LIKE TO SEE THE PLACE

THOSE BUTTERFREE ARE HEADED.

PIKA.

Girl, knocking: GOOD MORNING!

HELLO?

A VISITOR?

AT THIS HOUR?

I SAID GOOD MORNING,

'CAUSE EVEN THOUGH IT'S AFTER MIDNIGHT,

IF I SAID GOOD NIGHT, YOU MIGHT GO TO BED!

HUH?

WE HATE TO BOTHER YOU,

BUT WE'VE BEEN DOING SOME EXPLORING,

AND WE NEED A PLACE TO SPEND THE NIGHT.

OH, BY THE WAY, MY NAME IS CULLEN CALYX.

I KNOW THAT NAME.

YOU'RE THE FAMOUS RESEARCHER

AND PROFESSOR OF MEDICINE.

YES, AND IF MY GUESS IS CORRECT, YOU'RE LUNA CARSON.

I'VE READ DOZENS OF YOUR RESEARCH PAPERS ON POKéMON.

IT'S A REAL PLEASURE TO FINALLY MEET YOU IN PERSON.

PLEASE COME IN.

Ash: RESEARCH PAPERS?

WORKING FOR THE BUS COMPANY IS MY PART-TIME JOB.

I'M ACTUALLY HERE OBSERVING NATIVE POKéMON

IN THEIR HABITATS.

Girl: OH, WOW! I CAN'T BELIEVE

I'M FINALLY MEETING THE LUNA CARSON.

I'M, LIKE, A TOTALLY OFF-THE-HOOK FAN OF YOURS.

I WANT TO BE EXACTLY LIKE YOU WHEN I GET OLD.

GREAT. AND YOU ARE WHO?

THIS IS DOMINO. SHE WORKS FOR THE POKéMON INSTITUTE.

HI, EVERYBODY!

OH, DOMINO! WHAT A BEAUTIFUL NAME--

SO BLACK AND WHITE, YET SO PLAYFUL.

PLEASE, LET'S FIND A QUIET SPOT TO LINE UP

AND FIND OUT IF WE'RE A MATCH.

HAVEN'T YOU LEARNED BY NOW THAT YOU

SHOULDN'T PLAY IF YOU CAN'T WIN?

OW! OW! OW!

I'M AFRAID I HAVE SOME BAD NEWS.

THE BUS WON'T BE BACK FOR ANOTHER MONTH.

OH, I DIDN'T COME HERE TO TAKE THE BUS.

I CAME TO STUDY THE WATER.

THE WATER?

YES. I'VE BEEN STUDYING THE PURITY RIVER

FOR SOME TIME NOW,

AND I'VE DISCOVERED THAT ITS WATER

CONTAINS A NUMBER OF RARE MINERALS

THAT HAVE AN AMAZING EFFECT

ON THE HEALTH OF BOTH POKéMON

AND HUMAN VOLUNTEERS.

HERE'S A SAMPLE I TOOK TODAY.

I'VE COME HERE TO EXPLORE MOUNT CAINA

AND UNRAVEL THE SECRET OF THIS MIRACULOUS WATER.

THAT'S TOO BAD. HUH?

IF THE WATER DOES HEAL PEOPLE,

THEY'LL COME HERE FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD.

THOUSANDS OF VISITORS WILL START COMING

TO MOUNT CAINA AND PURITY CANYON.

THEY MIGHT ACCIDENTALLY DESTROY

THE VERY THING THEY'RE LOOKING FOR.

I SEE WHAT YOU MEAN.

THEN AGAIN, MOUNT CAINA IS

PRACTICALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO GET TO.

OHH!

HARD, BUT WE'RE PREPARED FOR TROUBLE.

WE'LL SCALE THAT MOUNTAIN ON THE DOUBLE.

TO PROTECT THE WORLD FROM DEVASTATION...

TO UNITE ALL PEOPLES WITHIN OUR NATION...

TO DENOUNCE THE EVILS OF TRUTH AND LOVE...

TO EXTEND OUR REACH TO THE STARS ABOVE.

JESSIE. JAMES.

TEAM ROCKET BLASTING OFF AT THE SPEED OF LIGHT.

SURRENDER NOW OR PREPARE TO FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!

MEOWTH, THAT'S RIGHT!

All: WHAT DO YOU WANT?

Domino, thinking: I DON'T REMEMBER THESE CLOWNS.

TODAY'S THE DAY WE CAPTURE PIKACHU.

YOU NEVER WILL! PIKA!

DON'T BET ON IT, BRATO!

GO ELECTRICITY- ABSORBING WIRE!

PIKA? PIKA!

PIKACHU!

YOU MAY AS WELL CONSERVE

YOUR ENERGY, TWERPS.

YOU CAN'T SHOCK US

NOW THAT WE'VE GOT YOUR POWER PLANT ON-LINE.

PIKACHU!

WE KNEW WE'D NEED CABLE

TO ABSORB PIKACHU'S ATTACKS,

SO WE PLANNED THINGS

RIGHT DOWN TO THE WIRE.

NOW IT'S TIME FOR OUR GETAWAY.

WE'VE BURST THAT THING BEFORE, AND WE'LL DO IT AGAIN!

HEH HEH! YOU MAY HAVE DONE IT BEFORE,

BUT NOT ANYMORE!

HEH HEH HEH! WE'VE ALWAYS HAD THE TEAM,

BUT NOW WE'VE FINALLY GOT THE ROCKETS.

Domino, thinking: UGH! THEY'RE EMBARRASSING!

YOU CAN'T GO!

THE AIR CURRENTS IN THIS VALLEY ARE TREACHEROUS.

IF YOU LAUNCH THAT ROCKET, THERE'S A GOOD CHANCE

WE'LL NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN.

FINALLY, A MAN WITH INTELLIGENCE,

INTENSITY, AND RUGGEDLY ATTRACTIVE STUBBLE

CARES ABOUT ME PASSIONATELY.

WHAT COULD THIS STRANGE SENSATION BE?

IT MUST BE LOVE!

BUT OUR LOVE CAN NEVER BE.

I HAVE ALREADY GIVEN MY HEART TO TEAM ROCKET.

PLEASE, DON'T TRY TO BEG.

I MUST LEAVE YOU.

WHEN IT COMES TO ROMANCE,

SHE GOT A PRETTY VIVID IMAGINATION.

AND THAT'S ALL SHE'S GOT.

I'M NOT FINISHED YET!

NOW WE MUST GO OUR SEPARATE WAYS,

BUT I HOPE THAT WHEN YOU THINK OF ME,

AS YOU MOST CERTAINLY WILL,

TRY TO REMEMBER THAT THERE IS

SOMETHING GOOD IN GOOD-BYE.

Team Rocket: AAH! PIKACHU!

FAREWELL, MY LOVE!

THIS UNFEELING ROCKET

NOW CARRIES ME AWAY

TOWARDS THE PALE AND HEARTLESS MOON.

I DON'T SEE NO MOON.

WELL, IT WAS THERE A SECOND AGO.

THE WEATHER'S CHANGING AGAIN!

TAKING OFF IN A BALLOON LIKE THAT

IS CARELESS AND RECKLESS.

YOU FORGOT TO MENTION BRAINLESS.

IF THEY GET AWAY,

I MIGHT NEVER SEE PIKACHU AGAIN.

I HAVE TO FOLLOW TEAM ROCKET, NO MATTER WHAT.

WELL, IF THAT'S THE CASE...

I KNOW MOUNT CAINA PRETTY WELL,

AND I'LL LEAD YOU UP THERE.

I'M READY WHEN YOU ARE.

Ash, Misty, & Brock: WE'RE READY, LUNA!

TOGEPI!

AND I'M READY, TOO.

OH! THIS IS... SO SCARY!

YOU KNEW THIS WOULD BE TOUGH.

YOU SHOULD'VE STAYED AT THE LODGE.

STAYING THERE ALONE WOULD'VE BEEN EVEN SCARIER.

DOMINO!

HERE I AM! HA HA HA!

I'M PRETTY LUCKY.

THAT BIG ROCK MISSED ME

BY AN INCH. MM-HMM!

WITH ALL THESE UPDRAFTS AND DOWNDRAFTS

AND SIDEWAYS-DRAFTS, WE'RE NOT GETTING ANYWHERE!

DO YOU THINK WE'RE IN DANGER?

LONG AS WE GOT THEM ROCKETS,

I'M SURE WE'LL BE OK.

HUH? HUH?

HMM? HMM?

UNH! IT'S GETTING WINDY!

THERE GOES TEAM ROCKET!

HEY, COME BACK HERE! OHH!

OHH! LOOK OUT! IT'S HEADING RIGHT THIS WAY!

WITH ALL OF THEM HANGING ON,

WE'RE NEVER GONNA GET AWAY!

WOBBUFFET!

YOU'RE GONNA DRAG US DOWN,

YOU LIGHTWEIGHT! RETURN!

All: AAH!

THE WIND JUST STOPPED.

Mewtwo: THE STORM IS OVER...FOR NOW.

A GIGANTIC LAKE.

AND LOOK AT THAT ISLAND.

I THINK I SEE...

JUST WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR.

IT'S DEFINITELY MEWTWO.

YOU GOT AWAY FROM ME ONCE.

IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN, MY FRIEND.

Mewtwo: THOSE CHILDREN AGAIN.

CAN THIS BE AN ACCIDENT?

OR IS IT SOMETHING...MORE?

Giovanni: NOW WE WILL FIND OUT ONCE AND FOR ALL

WHOSE WILL IS STRONGER!

WELL, WHAT'S THIS?

I'VE SPOTTED POKéMON WITH BIO-PRINTS

SIMILAR TO MEWTWO'S.

THAT DOESN'T SURPRISE ME.

IT'S NATURAL THAT MEWTWO

SHOULD WANT TO BE WITH ITS OWN KIND,

NO MATTER HOW UNNATURAL THEY MAY BE.

009, BEGIN OPERATIONS AT ONCE.

COPY. OVER AND OUT.

HMM? OHH!

OW!

HUH? AAH!

HEY, WHO ARE YOU?

009 TO TEAM ROCKET COMBAT UNIT LEADERS.

PROCEED TO COORDINATES.

THE TEAM ROCKET COMBAT UNIT?

THEY'RE HERE?

WHERE?

THERE THEY ARE.

PRETTY IMPRESSIVE.

WHERE'S THE MEOWTH-HEAD BALLOONS--AAH!

NOW WE'VE GOT YOU!

DOMINO, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

DOMINO?

IS THAT YOUR REAL NAME?

I DON'T REVEAL MY TRUE IDENTITY.

THAT'S A SECRET I KEEP TO MYSELF.

THINGS ARE SIMPLER THAT WAY.

BUT WITHIN THE ELITE RANKS OF TEAM ROCKET,

I HAVE AN IDENTITY THAT'S KNOWN TO ALL.

HA HA!

MY FELLOW AGENTS KNOW ME AS 009...DOMINO,

BUT MY ADVERSARIES KNOW ME AS SIMPLY THE BLACK TULIP.

BLACK TULIP? BUT YOU TOLD ME

YOU WORKED FOR THE POKéMON INSTITUTE.

I DO, BUT TEAM ROCKET HAS AGENTS WORKING EVERYWHERE.

YOU JUST NEVER KNOW.

IT MAY LOOK INNOCENT, BUT A FRIENDLY FACE

MAY BE HIDING OUR FIERCEST FOE.

LOOK AT OUR FACES!

THEY'RE FRIENDLY!

AND FOEY!

ALL I SEE ARE THE FACES OF LOSERS.

HERE'S A LITTLE SOUVENIR.

BYE! NICE TO SEE YOU GO!

HA HA HA!

DO EITHER OF YOU THINK

IT MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA

TO EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITY

OF UTILIZING AN ALTERNATE MEANS

OF TRANSPORTATION?

NOT REALLY.

WELL, AT LEAST THIS TIME, WE FINALLY CAPTURED

THE TWERP'S PIKACHU. THAT'S CERTAINLY PROGRESS.

HUH?!

LOOK! IT MUST'VE GOT LOOSE

WHEN THE BALLOON CRASH-LANDED.

NOW IT'S JUST STANDING THERE.

HUH? HUH?

WHY IS IT SPARKING LIKE THAT?

MAYBE IT WANTS TO PLAY.

PI-KA-CHUUUU!

PIKA?

IT WENT EASY ON US THAT TIME.

I WONDER WHY.

HEY!

PIKACHU AND...

PIKACHU!

PIKA PIKA-PIKACHU!

PIKACHU?

WELL, WHAT ARE THEY SAYING, MEOWTH?

THAT ONE UP THERE SAID, "SO, WE MEET AGAIN."

THEY KNOW EACH OTHER?

I DON'T KNOW. THE ONE ON THE HILL

SURE KNOWS THE TWERP'S PIKACHU.

HMM.

PIKA PIKACHU!

Meowth: IT AIN'T HAPPY.

IT'S SAYING, "YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE COME HERE.

THIS PLACE IS OURS."

PIKA! PIKA PIKACHU PIKA!

IT SAID, "WE CAME HERE TO MAKE A NEW HOME

"AND LIVE IN PEACE, BUT YOU BROUGHT HUMANS,

"AND HUMANS ARE THE LAST THING POKéMON NEED,

ESPECIALLY CLONE POKéMON."

I NEVER SAW A CLONE POKéMON BEFORE.

WONDER WHAT THEY ARE?

PI? PIKA PIKA?

THE TWERP'S PIKACHU DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY ARE, EITHER.

PI PI PI PIKA!

"GET OUT, OR YOU'LL REGRET IT!"

PIKA!

James: LOOKS LIKE THEY'RE

ABOUT TO BATTLE.

Jessie: PIKACHU VS. PIKACHU?

THIS COULD BE THE MATCH OF THE YEAR!

PIKA.

Mewtwo: NO!

FIGHTING IS SENSELESS.

CHA!

PIKA!

PIKA...

CHU--PIKA?

OHH! PIKA.

THERE IS NOTHING TO BE GAINED FROM SUCH BATTLING.

YOU ARE THE SAME AS THE OTHER POKéMON,

NEITHER STRONGER NOR WEAKER.

YOU PROVED THAT THE LAST TIME WE MET

AND BATTLED THE POKéMON FROM WHICH WE WERE COPIED.

[WHIMPERS]

PI-- CHA!

THIS IS AWFULLY CONFUSING.

THIS IS LIKE THE SEQUEL TO A MOVIE I MISSED.

Jessie: OH, DON'T MIND US! WE'RE JUST LOOKING

FOR A BALLOON REPAIR SHOP.

I SEARCHED FOR A PLACE

TO LIVE IN SECRET AND IN PEACE.

NOW THESE HUMANS HAVE FOUND US AGAIN.

PERHAPS WE SHALL NEVER FIND PEACE.

James: I KNOW YOU'RE PSYCHIC,

BUT HAVE WE MET BEFORE?

PIKA PIKACHU!

IT'S SAYING THEIR ONLY CHOICE

IS TO STAND THEIR GROUND.

IF THEY DON'T, THEIR HOME

WILL GET TAKEN AWAY FROM 'EM.

THEY GOTTA BATTLE.

RARGH!

PIKA! PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKACHU!

THERE'S GOTTA BE MORE THAN A BATTLE?

THIS IS WAR?

ACK! WHAT'D I GET INTO?

[POKéMON CALLING]

PIKA! PIKACHU!

PIKACHU'S RIGHT. THERE'S NO REASON

FOR YOU POKéMON TO FIGHT US POKéMON.

MEOW ME-MEOW?

YEAH, IT IS A FULL MOON.

SURE IS PRETTY, HUH?

Mewtwo: THE MOON REFLECTS THE LIGHT OF THE SUN.

POKéMON BORN INTO THIS WORLD

MAY WALK FREELY IN THAT SUN,

BUT WE WERE CREATED.

REFLECTIONS, WE ARE SHADOWS.

PERHAPS WE SHOULD NOT LIVE IN SUNLIGHT,

BUT IN THE SHADOWS OF MOONLIGHT.

THE MOON LOOKS AWFUL BRIGHT TONIGHT.

Pikachu clone: PIKACHU!

PIKA! PIKA PIKA! PIKA!

IT'S SAYING THAT IT AIN'T FAIR

THAT THEY HAVE TO LIVE LIKE SHADOWS.

PIKA! PIKA! PIKACHU!

"THIS PLACE IS BEAUTIFUL,

BUT BEYOND THIS PLACE, THERE'S A BIG, WIDE WORLD."

PIKA PI.

"A BRIGHT WORLD."

[BIRDS CHIRPING]

PIKA.

PIKA!

PIKA PIKA PIKACHU!

"YOU KNOW THAT WORLD, DON'T YOU, PIKACHU?

"YOU WERE BORN IN IT, AND YOU CAN LIVE IT,

ANY WAY AND ANYWHERE YOU WANT."

PIKACHU.

PIKA PIKACHU! PIKA PIKA PIKACHU!

"BUT BECAUSE OF WHAT WE ARE,

WE CAN'T LIVE IN THAT WORLD LIKE YOU DO."

PIKA! PIKACHU PIKA PIKACHU!

"WHATEVER WE DO OR WHEREVER WE GO,

WE DON'T BELONG."

I KNOW THAT FEELING.

EVER SINCE I WAS A LITTLE GIRL,

THE WORLD HAS ALWAYS TREATED ME

AS A MISFIT, AS AN OUTCAST,

AS SOMEONE WHO DOESN'T REALLY BELONG.

SO PREPARE FOR TROUBLE!

AND MAKE IT DOUBLE. WE UNITE ALL PEOPLES.

WE EXTEND OUR REACH. WE BLAST OFF.

SO SURRENDER NOW OR PREPARE TO FIGHT.

MEOWTH! THAT'S-- HEH HEH HEH!

Mewtwo: ENOUGH!

WE ARE WHAT WE ARE.

WE WILL REMAIN HERE

AND LIVE IN PEACE...

IF WE CAN.

PREPARE, MY OLD FRIEND,

FOR AT SUNRISE, WE WILL MEET AGAIN.

Brock: IS EVERYBODY OK?

Misty: I'M ALL RIGHT.

TOGEPI'S FINE, TOO.

I WON'T BE FINE,

NOT UNTIL I SEE PIKACHU AGAIN.

TEAM ROCKET'S BALLOON

WAS HEADED FOR THAT ISLAND, ASH.

THEN THAT'S WHERE I'M GOING.

ASH, WAIT.

Luna: I HAVE AN IDEA.

SEE THAT GIANT TREE TRUNK LYING OVER THERE?

WE'LL BUILD A CANOE OUT OF IT.

Ash: A CANOE?

Misty: SURE! AND WE CAN USE OUR POKéMON TO HELP.

WELL, LET'S GET STARTED.

CHIKORITA! BULBASAUR!

I CHOSE YOU!

BULBASAUR! CHIKO!

OK! LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN MAKE THAT LOG A CANOE.

BULBA! CHIKO!

WE CAN'T LET 'EM SEE US HERE.

THE QUICKER WE GET THERE, THE BETTER.

Mewtwo: IF THE HUMANS WILL NOT LEAVE US IN PEACE,

SO BE IT.

WE WILL LEAVE THIS PLACE AND SEARCH FOR ANOTHER.

WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEARCH

UNTIL WE FIND A PLACE TO LIVE

AND TO BELONG.

THE COMBAT SQUAD WILL RESCUE US.

I CERTAINLY HOPE NOT.

WHY?

DO YOU REALLY WANT THE BOSS

TO SEE US IN ANOTHER

HUMILIATING SITUATION?

SHH! PIPE DOWN!

THE OTHER PIKACHU WANTS TO SAY

SOMETHING IMPORTANT.

PIKA! PIKA PIKA! PIKACHU! PIKA!

IT SAID, "IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING

"TO GET OUT OF HERE, THEY'RE GONNA CATCH US

AND USE US IN POKéMON CLONING EXPERIMENTS."

PIKA! PIKA PIKA PI KA!

"JUST BECAUSE WE'RE CLONES DON'T MEAN

THEY CAN TREAT US ANY WAY THEY WANT."

RARGH!

PIKA! PIKA PIKA! PIKA!

"I SAY WE LEAVE THIS PLACE

AND GO WHEREVER WE PLEASE."

THAT'S GREAT NEWS!

ASK THEM TO BRING US, TOO.

WE'LL BE GLAD TO GO

ABSOLUTELY ANYWHERE.

THEY DIDN'T TELL US WE WERE GOING TO PRISON.

NEXT TIME, WE USE A TRAVEL AGENT.

Meowth: YOU HUMANS ARE ALL ALIKE.

WHAT'D YOU EXPECT THEM TO DO?

INVITE TEAM ROCKET ALONG FOR THE RIDE?

YOU'RE ON TEAM ROCKET.

WHY AREN'T YOU LOCKED UP LIKE WE ARE?

WELL, I'M VALUABLE

'CAUSE I CAN TALK HUMAN TALK.

THAT'LL COME IN HANDY.

BUT THEN WHY ARE WE--

THEY'LL LET YOU GO AS LONG AS I DO MY JOB

AND DON'T TRY ANY FUNNY STUFF. HA!

MEOW!

SO YOU SCRATCH ITS BACK,

AND IT SCRATCHES YOURS.

PI PI! PIKACHU!

WELL, WE'RE MOVING OUT.

PIKA.

HEY! THAT'S THE TWERP'S PIKACHU.

MEOWTH, YOU'RE WORKING WITH THE ENEMY.

TAKE IT EASY, YOU TWO.

DON'T YOU SEE THIS IS THE PERFECT OPPORTUNITY?

AS SOON AS WE GET THIS MESS CLEANED UP,

I'LL GRAB PIKACHU.

WHAT DO YOU THINK, JESSIE?

I THINK WE CAN TRUST MEOWTH.

THEN I'LL TAKE PIKACHU STRAIGHT TO THE BOSS.

HE'LL BE SO HAPPY,

I BET I'LL FINALLY GET A TEAM ROCKET UNIFORM.

Both: TRAITOR!

Mewtwo: SHOULD I LET THEM GO?

ALL CREATURES OUGHT TO CONTROL

THEIR OWN DESTINIES.

OR SHOULD I FORCE THEM TO STAY?

HERE I CAN USE MY POWERS

TO PROTECT THEM FROM HARM.

BUT DO I HAVE THE RIGHT

TO KEEP THEM FROM LIVING AS THEY CHOOSE?

WHICH IS MORE IMPORTANT...

THEIR SAFETY

OR THEIR FREEDOM?

Ash: I'M COMING, PIKACHU.

WHAT IS THIS PLACE?

[BEEP BEEP BEEP]

WOW! IT'S OFF THE CHART!

LUNA, THIS SPRING MUST BE THE SOURCE

FOR PURITY RIVER.

THE WATER'S CHEMICAL MAKEUP IS ASTOUNDING.

I KNEW IT WOULD BE.

Cullen: THE HUMAN BODY, IN FACT ALL LIVING THINGS,

ARE MADE UP OF MOSTLY WATER.

WATER IS ESSENTIAL FOR LIFE,

AND THE QUALITY OF WATER

HELPS DETERMINE THE QUALITY OF LIFE.

Luna: YES, THIS PLACE IS BURSTING WITH LIFE.

THAT'S BECAUSE IT'S CLEAN HERE,

UNTOUCHED, PURE.

AND THE SOURCE OF THAT PURITY

IS THE SPRING.

Cullen: MAYBE THE SPRING ISN'T JUST THE SOURCE

OF ALL THE WATER IN PURITY CANYON.

IT COULD BE THE SOURCE OF A WHOLE NEW WAY

TO BRING HEALTH AND HAPPINESS

TO THE WHOLE WORLD.

HA HA!

WE MAY BE STANDING ON THE EDGE

OF THE MOST IMPORTANT DISCOVERY

IN MEDICAL HISTORY!

NIDO, NIDO, NIDO.

Misty: OH, CUTIES!

WOW, WITHOUT A POKéMON BREEDER AROUND,

IT'S AMAZING THEY ALL LOOK SO HEALTHY.

IN A HABITAT AS CLEAN AS THIS ONE,

THEY COULDN'T HELP BUT GROW UP

TO BE STRONG AND HEALTHY.

THE AIR, THE FOOD AND THE WATER

ARE ALL NATURAL.

I WONDER IF THEIR PARENTS ARE NEARBY.

THEY'RE WATCHING OVER THEM FROM UP THERE.

THEY'RE ALL VERY PROTECTIVE,

AND VERY PROUD.

THE BABIES HERE

ARE LIVING HAPPY, HEALTHY LIVES.

Cullen: THEY LOOK JUST AS HAPPY AND HEALTHY

AS THEIR OFFSPRING DO.

I THINK WE SHOULD MOVE ON NOW.

THEY MIGHT GET NERVOUS.

WE HAVE TO FIND PIKACHU.

I JUST HOPE PIKACHU'S SOMEPLACE

WHERE IT'S NICE AND SAFE.

AHH...I MADE IT.

PIKA, PIKA!

PIKA?

AAH!

PIKA! PIKA!

WAAAH!

MEOW, ME-MEOW, MEOW.

[ROARS]

UHH! UHH!

PIK--A!

[WHIMPERS] PIKA.

Pikachu: CHU!

PIKA...

CHU!

PIKA?

COME ON, HURRY! PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER!

MEOW, MEOW?

[GASPS] SORRY, PAL.

I DIDN'T MEAN TO SCRATCH YA UP.

I JUST DON'T WANT 'EM TO CATCH YA.

COME ON! WE'VE GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE!

RUN FOR IT!

Pikachu: PIKA! PIKA, PIKA!

Meowth: AAH! UGH! OH!

PIKA!

AAH! PIKA!

[WHIMPERING]

All: HUH?

WIGGLY! BLASTOISE!

NINE! RRAH!

YOU.

IT'S BEEN QUITE A WHILE. YOU LOOK WELL.

Mewtwo: LEAVE THIS PLACE AT ONCE.

I WARN YOU, MY STRENGTH IS FAR GREATER

THAN WHEN WE FIRST MET.

YOUR INCREASED STRENGTH COMES AS NO SURPRISE.

FORTUNATELY, MY TECHNICIANS HAVE PREDICTED IT,

AND THEY'VE CREATED NEW TECHNOLOGY

TO DEAL WITH IT.

UHH!

AAH! PIKA!

WELL, IT SEEMS MY NEW EQUIPMENT

IS WORTH THE CONSIDERABLE INVESTMENT.

YOU SHOULD FEAR MY POWERS MOST OF ALL.

YOU CANNOT CONQUER ME.

YOUR PSYCHIC ATTACKS BEND THE WILLS

OF LIVING CREATURES,

BUT THEY CANNOT INFLUENCE MACHINES.

WE WILL SEE ABOUT THAT.

ACTIVATE THE FORCE FIELDS!

[BEEP BEEP]

Giovanni: WELL DONE, MEWTWO.

YOU HAVE DEMONSTRATED THAT TECHNOLOGY

HAS ITS LIMITS.

AN IMPORTANT LESSON TO KEEP IN MIND.

BUT LIVING CREATURES HAVE THEIR LIMITS, TOO.

DO NOT TEST THE LIMITS OF MY POWER.

IT APPEARS THAT WOULD BE FUTILE.

SO...

WE'LL TAKE OUR BATTLE TO THAT ISLAND.

I'LL FLY OVER THERE...

FOR PHASE 2.

SO, I UNDERSTAND THAT SOME POKéMON FRIENDS OF YOURS

ARE OVER ON THAT ISLAND.

NOW WE'LL SEE HOW POWERFUL YOUR LOYALTIES ARE!

YOU ARE DESPICABLE.

OH! WHAT'S GOING ON?

[TOGETHER] HUH?

UNFORTUNATELY, YOUR BEING HERE

IS VERY INCONVENIENT FOR US.

WE CAN'T LET ANYONE INTERFERE AND PREVENT US

FROM REACHING OUR OBJECTIVES.

WE CAN'T LET YOU LEAVE UNTIL OUR OPERATION IS OVER.

YOU'D BETTER!

Jessie: JAMES.

James: WHAT?

IF MEOWTH DOESN'T COME BACK,

WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT--

IF MEOWTH DOESN'T COME BACK

WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT WHAT?

WHAT DO WE DO ABOUT THE MOTTO?

I NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT THAT.

MAYBE WE SHOULD START PRACTICING.

Together: 1...2...

LOOKS LIKE TEAM ROCKET'S NEVER BLASTING OFF AGAIN!

AREN'T THEY SIMPLY ADORABLE?

THOSE POKéMON ARE JUST BABIES!

LEAVE THEM ALONE!

[ROARS]

[GROWLS]

HA HA!

AAH!

ARR, ARR!

STOP IT, DOMINO!

I KNOW TRAINERS CATCH THEIR POKéMON WITH POKéBALLS,

BUT I PREFER OUR METHOD.

MAKE CERTAIN NOT A SINGLE ONE GETS AWAY!

Black Tulip: THESE POKéMON ARE JUST GOING

TO BE USED IN EXPERIMENTS AND AS BAIT FOR MEWTWO.

NO SENSE IN WASTING POKéBALLS.

WELL, WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE?

SOME RARE AND VALUABLE POKéMON?

YOU KNOW VERY WELL WE'RE NOT POKéMON.

OH, THAT'S RIGHT, I WAS MISTAKEN.

TEAM ROCKET AGENTS ARE AS USELESS

AS YOU ARE RARE,

BUT THEY CERTAINLY ARE NOT VERY VALUABLE.

GRR!

Black Tulip: 009 TO GIOVANNI.

EXCEPT FOR POKéMON BROUGHT BY A YOUNG TRAINER,

THE ISLAND'S POPULATED BY POKéMON CLONES,

AND WE'VE GOT 'EM.

OVER.

EXCELLENT. THE TRAP IS SET,

AND NOW WE HAVE OUR BAIT.

Giovanni: MEWTWO, ARE YOU GOING TO LET

YOUR LITTLE FRIENDS BATTLE ME ALONE?

I CANNOT. I MUST HELP THEM.

[HOWLING AND GROWLING]

THESE GUYS ALL WANT TO HELP OUT, TOO.

MEOW, MEOW, MEOW, MEOW, MEOW!

WHO ME? I SHOULD COME ALONG WITH YA?

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Pikachu: PIKA, PIKA.

WELL, OK.

I HAVE TO ADMIT I AIN'T GOT A LOT OF EXPERIENCE

AT BEING UNSELFISH.

BUT IF YOU CAN DO IT,

I GUESS I CAN GIVE IT A TRY.

Pikachu clone: PIKA.

Pikachu: PIKA-CHU.

WE MUST LIVE WHERE AND HOW WE CHOOSE.

FRIENDS, TO THE ISLAND!

PIKA! WHOO!

[HUM]

Giovanni: 009.

Black Tulip: THIS IS 009.

MEWTWO IS HEADED YOUR WAY.

ROGER, WE'RE--OH!

I'VE BEEN EXPECTING YOU.

THIS LITTLE NIDOQUEEN SURE IS A CUTIE.

RELEASE THAT YOUNG ONE.

Black Tulip: MAYBE THAT'S SOMETHING

YOU SHOULD TAKE UP WITH MY BOSS.

HERE HE IS NOW.

NICE TO SEE YOU.

Giovanni: SO I TAKE IT YOU'RE WILLING

TO OBEY MY COMMANDS?

NO. I WOULD SOONER LEAVE THIS WORLD

THAN SERVE YOU.

I SUGGEST YOU RECONSIDER YOUR OPINION.

IF YOU CHOOSE TO DEFY ME, YOUR FELLOW CREATIONS

WILL ALL BE USED IN OUR EXPERIMENTS,

AND WILL CERTAINLY LEAVE THIS WORLD.

HMM.

STAND AWAY. I MUST SUBMIT TO HIM.

Giovanni: THIS IS NOT MEANT TO DESTROY YOU.

IT HAS BEEN DEVELOPED

TO SIMPLY HARNESS YOUR ABILITIES,

AND MOLD YOUR WILL TO MY PURPOSES.

YOUR PURPOSES!

DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME DESTROYING THEM.

WE'RE QUITE CAPABLE OF BUILDING NEW ONES.

BUT IF YOU TRY TO FIGHT US,

YOUR LITTLE FRIENDS WILL BE THE ONES

TO PAY THE PRICE.

PI!

PIKA!

Pikachu: PIKACHU!

PIKA!

I WILL DO AS YOU SAY.

[CHUCKLES]

ALL YOU HAVE TO DO NOW IS STEP INTO THE LIGHT.

PIKA! PIKA!

[POKéMON YELLING]

THEY'RE TELLING IT TO STOP, BUT IT'S GOING ANYWAY.

THIS COULD BE A BIG MISTAKE.

[CHUCKLES]

THAT'S A GOOD BOY.

NOW YOU WON'T BE ABLE

TO RUN AWAY FROM ME AGAIN!

YOU MAY CONTROL MY BODY,

BUT YOU WILL NEVER CONTROL MY WILL.

WE'LL SOON SEE.

AAH!

I WILL NOT SUBMIT! UHH...UHH...UHH!

YOU ARE STRONG, MEWTWO,

BUT PAIN MAKES THE BODY MASTER OF THE WILL.

LET'S SEE HOW LONG THEY STRUGGLE.

ARGH...ARGH...UHH!

THIS IS A VERY CHARMING PLACE.

I HAD A FEELING YOU'D FIND

A PRETTY LITTLE HIDEAWAY LIKE THIS.

IT'S PERFECT FOR MY NEW LABORATORY.

FINALLY, I WILL CREATE A VAST ARMY

OF THE WORLD'S MOST POWERFUL POKéMON!

AND YOU...

YOU WILL BE AT ITS HEAD...

CARRYING OUT MY COMMANDS.

TOGETHER WE WILL RULE THE EARTH!

ARGH...

UHH!

[TOGETHER] HUH?

PIKA. PIKA.

PIKACHU!

PIKACHU. YOU BOTH LOOK WIPED OUT.

WHAT DID THEY DO TO YOU?

Pikachu: PIKA-PI.

LUNA, GET THE SPRING WATER

THAT'S IN THE VIAL IN MY POCKET.

IT MAY REVIVE THEM.

RIGHT!

THIS MIGHT BE JUST WHAT THEY NEED.

[TOGETHER] PI...

PIKA! PIKA!

IT WORKED!

[TOGETHER] PIKACHU!

THAT WATER IS JUST INCREDIBLE.

I KNEW IT WAS HEALTHY,

BUT ITS HEALING POWERS ARE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.

STOP MUTTERING AND START WALKING!

YOU CAN'T STAY HERE.

WE HAVE A PLACE ALL PREPARED.

AND WHERE'S THAT?

YOU'D BETTER LET US OUT OF HERE RIGHT NOW!

[CHUCKLES]

YOU MANY NOT GET OUT AT ALL.

Black Tulip: EVERYTHING IS GOING ACCORDING TO PLAN.

CONSTRUCTION OF OUR BASE IS PROCEEDING.

WHAT'S THE STATUS OF MEWTWO?

IT'S STRONGER THAN I REALIZED.

ITS BRAIN WAVES HAVEN'T ALTERED IN THE LEAST!

IF THIS GOES ON MUCH LONGER

ITS BODY WILL BE DESTROYED BEFORE ITS WILL IS.

YOU CAN'T DESTROY IT.

IT COULD TAKE YEARS TO CLONE IT AGAIN.

I KNOW THAT!

BUT THIS HAS BECOME A BATTLE

BETWEEN MEWTWO'S WILL AND MINE!

[CRACK]

UHH!

WELL, DON'T TAKE IT OUT ON ME!

CAN'T YOU TWO WORK FASTER?

USE SOME ELBOW GREASE.

I WANT TO BE ABLE TO SEE MY FACE

IN THAT FLOOR.

NOW HURRY UP!

GRR, WE'LL SHOW HER.

[BUZZ]

[POKéMON CALLING]

Ash: WHAT ARE THEY SAYING?

Pikachu: PIKA.

THEY SAY THEY'RE COMING, AND THEY'RE VERY ANGRY.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? WHO'S COMING?

Meowth: THE BUG POKéMON.

THEY'RE MAD AT THE PEOPLE

THAT ARE POLLUTIN' THE LAKE,

AND THEY'RE COMING TO STOP 'EM.

MEOW?

BE QUIET.

RARR.

[BZZZZ]

AH! WHAT'S HAPPENING?!

HEY, WHAT'S THAT?

UH...OH!

WHAT'S GOING ON?

AAH! AAH!

HEY, LOOK!

Ash: A WAY OUT. NOW'S OUR CHANCE!

COME ON, EVERYBODY!

HURRY! PIKA!

LUNA, I'M GOING BACK THAT WAY.

WHAT FOR?

I'M WORRIED ABOUT THE SPRING.

I'LL GO ALONG WITH YOU.

SCYTHER! SCYTHER!

AAH!

SCYTHER!

HA! YOU'LL NEVER STOP THE BLACK TULIP,

BECAUSE I CAN THINK ON MY FEET!

AAH! AAH! AAH! AAH!

I GUESS THAT FLOOR WE MOPPED

IS STILL A LITTLE SLIPPERY--

PERFECT FOR A CHARACTER LIKE HER.

WHOA! OH! WHOA!

WHAT HAPPENED, DOMINO? YOU LOOKED FINE

WHEN YOU FIRST CAME IN, BUT NOW YOUR FACE SEEMS...

A LITTLE PALE.

THE WATER HASN'T BEEN CONTAMINATED.

THANK GOODNESS.

UHH...UHH...UHH.

Pikachu clone: PIKACHU!

PIKA, PIKA!

I AM GLAD YOU ARE SAFE.

PIKA?

BUT I CANNOT BEAR THIS MUCH LONGER.

MEWTWO.

HOW DO YOU KNOW MY NAME?

WE HEARD IT FROM MEOWTH,

AND MEOWTH TOLD US YOU'RE THE ONE

WHO SAVED MY PIKACHU.

THERE'S GOT TO BE SOME WAY WE CAN HELP YOU NOW.

STOP THESE MACHINES.

BROCK, MAYBE THERE'S A CUTOFF SWITCH?

IT'S NO USE. THEY'RE ALL SEALED UP!

WELL, WE'LL HAVE TO TACKLE 'EM!

UHH!

HIT IT HARDER! UHH!

UHH! UHH!

PIKA!

PI!

HI-YAH!

Ash: UHH! PIK!

[TOGETHER] YAAH!

[CRASH]

WE CAN'T STOP IT!

THEN I MUST USE

WHAT REMAINS OF MY POWER.

EITHER THESE MACHINES WILL BE DESTROYED,

OR I WILL BE!

AAH!

HANG IN THERE, MEWTWO!

YOU CAN DO IT!

Both: PIKA, PIKA!

BOTH OF YOU, HELP OUT WITH YOUR THUNDERBOLT.

PI!

[TOGETHER] PIKACHUUUUU!

Mewtwo: ARGH!

[WHIRRR, SPROING]

[TOGETHER] MEWTWO!

YOU DID IT. YOU BEAT 'EM!

YES...

BUT I HAVE ALSO DESTROYED MYSELF.

Both: PIKA, PIKA!

PIKACHU!

THE SPRING. THEY'RE SAYING,

"COME TO THE SPRING, MEWTWO."

THE WATER THERE DID HELP REVIVE THE PIKACHU.

MAYBE IT'LL HELP MEWTWO.

THEN LET'S GO THERE.

YOU'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

MEWTWO BELONGS TO ME, AND I ALONE WILL BE THE ONE

TO DECIDE WHETHER IT WILL SURVIVE OR NOT.

OH, NO, YOU WON'T!

WE WON'T LET YOU!

GO!

GEODUDE! POLIWHIRL!

HUH?

IT'S THE BOSS! WHAT DO WE DO?

IF HE SEES US, HE MAY DO SOMETHING DRASTIC,

LIKE ASK FOR OUR EXPENSE REPORT.

HEY, GUYS, IT'S GREAT TO SEE YA!

Both: YOU?!

COME ON. LET'S FIND A PLACE TO HIDE.

RIGHT.

AAH! AAH!

YOU TAKE MEWTWO.

OK.

NO!

[ROARS] DEWGONG!

WHAT?

SO YOU WISH TO DEFY ME AS YOUR LEADER HAS?

VERY WELL, THEN. I'LL CRUSH YOU, TOO!

Ash: THANKS, GUYS. KEEP GOING.

CHIKO. CHIKO.

WHY...

WHY ARE YOU HELPING ME?

WELL, FOR ONE THING, YOU SAVED MY PIKACHU.

THAT'S A GOOD REASON.

THE ONLY ONE?

DO YOU ALWAYS NEED A REASON

TO HELP SOMEBODY?

Mewtwo: PERHAPS YOU ARE UNIQUE--

A UNIQUE HUMAN, ONE OF A KIND.

YOU'RE ONE OF A KIND, TOO.

EVERYBODY IS.

[CHUCKLES] I DO NOT KNOW WHAT I AM.

AND SOON IT MAY NOT MATTER.

Luna: ASH!

Cullen: WHAT POKéMON IS THAT?

THIS IS MEWTWO. IT'S REAL WEAK,

AND IT NEEDS TO GET INTO THAT SPRING WATER FAST,

OR IT'S NOT GONNA MAKE IT.

ASH, WAIT. YOU CAN'T GET

THAT POKéMON NEAR THE WATER,

IT MIGHT CONTAMINATE THE WHOLE SPRING.

THIS WATER HAS MINERALS

HUMANS NEED!

I'M SORRY, BUT RIGHT NOW

THE ONE WHO NEEDS THAT WATER MOST

IS MEWTWO!

AHH!

I HAVE SEEN THIS PLACE.

I HAVE BEEN HERE BEFORE.

WAS IT IN MY DREAMS?

BUT THIS IS NO DREAM.

I FEEL NEW LIFE RISING WITHIN ME.

MEW?

IF THESE WATERS HAVE THE SAME RESTORING EFFECT

ON ME AS THEY DO ON OTHER POKéMON,

POKéMON WHO BELONG TO THIS WORLD,

COULD IT BE THAT THIS WORLD

IS MY RIGHTFUL PLACE, TOO?

THEY'RE HERE!

Giovanni: TELL ME WHERE MEWTWO IS!

STOP IT! YOU CAN'T COME HERE

AND DESTROY THE SPRING!

YES, I CAN. THIS PLACE BELONGS TO ME!

HUH?!

YOU WILL NOT DEFILE THIS PLACE.

IT DOES NOT BELONG TO YOU,

ANY MORE THAN I DO.

OH! OH!

WHAT'S HAPPENIN'?

THIS PLACE HAS GIVEN ME NEW LIFE.

Mewtwo: NOW I SHALL USE ALL MY POWER

TO DEFEND IT.

UH! WHAT'S HAPPENED HERE? WHAT'S GOING ON?

WHY IS EVERYONE STANDING AROUND?

WHERE IS MEWTWO?!

THE SPRING IS GONE.

WHAT ABOUT THE SAMPLE?

WE MAY BE IN LUCK.

WE MAY BE ABLE TO CREATE

A SYNTHETIC VERSION IN THE LAB.

YES, BUT I WONDER WHAT HAPPENED

TO ALL THE POKéMON?

Ash: THIS IS AMAZING.

Mewtwo: I HAVE MOVED THE LAKE AND THE SPRING

BENEATH MOUNT CAINA.

THEY WILL BE PROTECTED HERE.

WAIT TILL I CALL PROFESSOR OAK

AND TELL HIM ABOUT THIS!

YOU WILL TELL NO ONE.

ONCE YOU LEAVE THIS PLACE,

YOU MUST LEAVE BEHIND

YOUR MEMORIES OF ME

AND ALL YOU HAVE SEEN HERE.

YOU'RE GONNA MAKE US FORGET?

Meowth: YOU CAN'T DO THAT!

HUMPF!

MEOWTH, BE QUIET!

DON'T STICK YOUR NOSE

INTO THIS, MEOWTH!

IT'S GOT NOTHIN' TO DO WITH MY NOSE.

IT'S WHAT ALL THE OTHER POKéMON ARE SAYING.

PIKA, PIKACHU.

IT'S ONLY NATURAL TO WONDER ABOUT

WHO AND WHERE YOU CAME FROM,

AND SOMEDAY THESE LITTLE ONES

ARE GONNA WANT SOME ANSWERS.

ONLY, THERE WON'T BE ANY,

NOT IF YOU'RE GONNA MAKE EVERYBODY FORGET!

[GRUNTS]

Meowth: SO WHAT IF THEIR PARENTS WERE CLONES?

THEY'RE ALL LIVING CREATURES.

THEY DESERVE TO LIVE,

AND THEY DESERVE TO KNOW ABOUT THEMSELVES

JUST AS MUCH AS YOU OR ME OR ANYBODY DOES.

THAT'S WHAT WE THINK.

MEOW.

I THINK WE SHOULD REMEMBER, TOO.

MEOWTH IS RIGHT.

AND JUST FORGETTING THINGS

DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT THEY HAPPENED.

DON'T YOU THINK EVERYBODY

DESERVES TO KNOW WHO THEY ARE

AND WHERE THEY CAME FROM?

TOGEPI!

YES, THEY DESERVE TO REMEMBER.

Mewtwo: IF WE ARE ABLE TO LOOK TO THE FUTURE

AS OTHER POKéMON DO,

WE MUST ALSO BE ABLE TO LOOK TO THE PAST.

THE SHAME OF THAT PAST IS NOT OURS.

IT BELONGS TO THOSE WHO USED OUR PAST

TO SET US APART.

TO INSURE THE SAFETY OF ALL MY FELLOW POKéMON

AND OF THIS HEALING PLACE,

I WILL CLEAR ONLY THE MEMORIES OF THOSE

WHO SEEK TO DESTROY THEM.

HUH? WHAT?

HUH?

ONLY THEY SHALL FORGET.

009, WHY ARE WE HERE?

WHAT'S THE COMBAT UNIT DOING?

MAYBE WE'RE ON SOME KIND OF A SECRET MISSION.

SECRET MISSION?

WHAT KIND OF SECRET MISSION?!

I DON'T KNOW ANY MORE THAN YOU DO.

BUT IF WE DON'T GET OUT OF HERE NOW,

IT WON'T BE SECRET.

HMM, WE SHOULD WITHDRAW

OUR FORCES AT ONCE.

IT'S STRANGE, BUT I HAVE THE FEELING

I HAVE BEEN UTTERLY DEFEATED.

MEOW.

Mewtwo: THE TIME HAS COME FOR US TO DEPART.

BLASTOISE!

NINETALES!

DEWGONG!

SCYTHER!

PONYTA!

PSYDUCK!

SANDSLASH!

TENTACRUEL!

IF YOU EVER SEE OUR BALLOON,

FLY BY AND SAY HELLO!

MEOW, MEOW.

THANK YOU. I WILL REMEMBER YOU ALWAYS.

THIS TIME, WE'LL BOTH BE ABLE TO REMEMBER.

PIKACHU.

PIKACHU.

PIKA!

HA HA!

IF SOMEDAY YOU HEAR MY VOICE,

KNOW THAT IT IS MY SPIRT

CALLING ACROSS TIME AND SPACE TO YOURS.

LUNA CALLED AND SAID YOU MIGHT NEED A RIDE

BACK TO THE CITY, SO I--HEY!

DON'T YOU EVEN HAVE A KNAPSACK?

I WON'T BE GOING BACK.

LUNA AND I DISCOVERED WE HAVE A LOT IN COMMON

BESIDES RESEARCH.

OH.

[GIGGLES]

[TRAFFIC HORNS HONK]

Mewtwo: I WILL REMEMBER YOU...ALWAYS.

HUH?

WHAT'S WRONG, ASH?

I KNOW IT MIGHT BE IMPOSSIBLE, GUYS,

BUT I COULD'VE SWORN I JUST HEARD MEWTWO TALKING.

PIKA.

BUT MAYBE IT WAS JUST MY...MEMORY.

Narrator: OUR FRIENDS CONTINUE ON THEIR JOURNEY.

BUT IN A FARAWAY CITY, STORIES ARE TOLD

OF A MYSTERIOUS POKéMON WHO ROAMS FREELY,

BUT ALWAYS BY MOONLIGHT.
