(Pokémon, I'll get you!)

Whether in fires, in the water, in the grass, in the forests,

In the ground, in the clouds, in that girl's skirt, (KYAA~~~!!)

It's very, very, very, very tricky, but

I'm sure I'll get you!

Pokémon, I'll get you!

Pallet Town, farewell, bye-bye,

I'm going on a journey with this guy (Pikachu~)

We'll win every time with skills we've trained,

Make new friends, and head off to the next town. (We're waiting)

That things will always go well

Is never guaranteed (That's right),

But, forever and always, I live life to the fullest,

When these guys are with me.

Ah! I aim to be a Pokémon Master,

I want to be, I have to be,

I know I'll be one!

In order to get the seventh Badge...

Satoshi and his friends have come to Cinnabar Island.

Cinnabar Gym is deep underground a volcano.

They're above the boiling magma.

Gym Leader Katsura sent out Fire-type Pokémon.

These Fire-types were so strong, they even defeated Satoshi's Squirtle.

Charizard was then sent out to fight fire with fire.

As expected, it didn't listen to orders and withdrew from the front.

Pikachu put in tremendous effort and managed to pull off a comeback, but then...

Appear, Magmar!

What's that?

Magmar emerged from the magma, and put up a tough fight...

...cornering Pikachu in the end.

What will be Pikachu's fate?

Decisive Battle! Cinnabar Gym!

Return, Pikachu!

Pikachu!

Pikachu!

You still want to go for it?

Stop, Pikachu!

That's enough now.

It's frustrating to admit, Kastura. But I give up.

You made the correct decision at the last moment, Satoshi.

If you let it fight, you wouldn't be fit to be a Pokémon Trainer.

My hot spring is effective at healing burns. Take a rest.

Katsura, give me one... just one more chance!

It's not the right time for that.

I'm sorry, Pikachu.

My tactics lost it.

But I'll battle him again, and we won't lose.

We definitely won't lose!

A few burns aren't anything. Right, Pikachu?

It's reckless to battle him again.

That Magmar's strength should be against the rules.

I wonder if even my Water-type Pokémon could beat them.

There are other Gyms out there.

We should give up this Gym Badge.

I can't lose and run away.

If only Charizard was willing...

Whatever I ask of that one...

What...?

...ever?

Whatever it is you ask us about...

it is the world's pity to answer you...

In the hot water, yes, yes!

Standing like columns of water, yeah, yeah!

Trying to say our signature sayings while in the hot baths, come on.

But when we hear those words...

Our bodies have a Pavlovian reaction.

Does that make it okay?

We should be trying to capture nyat strong Pokémon, nyat Magmar nyat thrashed Pikachu so badly.

My paw pads have gotten all wet now.

Don't worry. We said we'd take care of it.

We have the perfect plan.

Here's the place.

My paw pads are burned!

Where are you, Magmar?

Sweet Magmar, sweet Magmar, if you are here,

come to the front of the ring, why don't you?

The lovely Musashi and Kojirō are waiting for you.

It won't care if you come out like that!

Yeah!

It really did...

...come out...

What are you doing?

Hurry and capture it!

Right then.

With this freezing missile, we'll be able to send off some frozen-cold luggage.

Target locked and ready to fire.

Blast it into tomorrow!

Hooray! We've frozen it to the bone!

Frozen victory! Frozen victory!

Frozen victory! Frozen victory!

We've got trouble. The absolute-zero missile didn't work.

Fire! Fire! Fire all around!

Freeze! Freeze! Freeze it all!

What's that?

Above, it shakes. Below, it rages. What am I?

It's something happening in the underground Gym.

That's right!

Answering your own riddles?

We need to go check the underground Gym.

An old man with sudden white hair. What am I?

Not you! You're just frozen!

What is all this?

That's the Rocket Gang!

Aim properly and then fire!

That's what we're doing!

Chilling missiles in a burning cave. What is this?

Tempura ice-cream!

That wasn't a riddle.

If cold air suddenly strikes the heated rock,

we'll all be in big trouble!

What?

What's happening?

Somehow, this doesn't feel right.

Just as I thought. The rapid cooling is cracking the rocks.

What should we do?

I don't know! If the rocks here break apart,

huge amounts of magma will flow out.

In other words, the volcano will violently erupt!

What?

The ring!

I think I know what's coming...

This time...

Just like always...

This feels bad!

Oh no! The magma's begun to flow!

At this rate, the volcano is going to erupt.

This is bad!

Magmar!

Pile rocks to stop the flow of magma!

Stop!

If you're not a Fire-type Pokémon, the magma will severely burn you!

Fire-type Pokémon?

Charizard, I choose you!

Charizard, I need you to help Magmar.

Prevent the magma's flow!

I knew it was pointless.

Who is it?

Magmar

It's no good. We have to run for it!

Even if we run, there's no escaping if there's an eruption.

All of Cinnabar Island will sink.

What can we do?

You can do it, Magmar!

Charizard's helping Magmar!

Pokémon working together...

Okay! Onix, Geodude! You help move rocks too!

There!

Staryu, keep everyone's bodies cool.

Go!

I'm counting on you, Squirtle!

Not you!

Not you either!

That's how you do it!

You're all doing well!

Just a little more!

Togepi!

You don't need to.

You did it, Charizard!

You've done well, Satoshi, as thanks—

You're going to give me the Crimson Badge?

No!

I'm giving you one more chance to battle me!

Yes! Yes!

All right. I'll get the Badge this time.

Thanks to the fuss, we can't use the ring anymore.

Sorry about that, but since this is a special case...

We will use this crater that I found Magmar in as the ring.

Doesn't matter to me!

This match will be 1 VS 1.

My Pokémon will, of course, be my Magmar.

Just what I hoped!

Mine will be...

Charizard?

Charizard is... Charizard is all fired up.

It looks like Charizard's really motivated.

It wants a match between fellow Fire-type Pokémon.

It's instinctively taken Magmar as a rival.

I've been waiting for this. I've been waiting for exactly this moment.

You shouldn't overexert yourself with your injury, Pikachu.

Charizard, I choose you!

Huh? Charizard?

I guess it doesn't really intend to listen to me.

Here come the Fire attacks!

Fight fire with fire!

Go with a Flamethrower!

They're evenly matched!

Even if you match Magmar's fire power, we've still got some moves!

Fire Blast!

Give it your all! Don't give in, Charizard!

Now!

Skull Bash!

Charizard!

Magmar!

Watch out, Charizard!

Fly, Charizard!

If you get dragged into the magma, you'll be no match for Magmar!

Charizard!

Taking them down into the magma should be a foul!

I told you from the start,

the battle ring is this crater. All of it.

Using its special characteristics is strategy!

Charizard...

Charizard...

Satoshi!

Look there!

Okay, give them a mid-air Submission to make them dizzy!

If using the special characteristics of the ring is part of your strategy,

using the air above the crater as the ring is part of mine!

Charizard, Seismic Toss!

Hooray!

That was superb, Satoshi.

I take off my hat to you.

Okay. Return, Chari—

...zard.

It's no crime to gain it, but something is still lost, son. What am I?

No crime, son... Crime son... Crim son...

This is the Crimson Badge!

This badge is yours.

Thank you, Katsura.

This is thanks to Charizard.

I would have thought Charizard would be at least a little more obedient...

But, it's the same as ever.

I'm sure we'll understand each other one day.

More importantly, I've got to get the next badge.

Now that you mention it, I'm sure Viridian City has a Gym.

We didn't hear anything about that, did we, Kasumi?

Oh, you didn't know?

Viridian City has the Green Badge.

Then why didn't you tell me when we were in Viridian City?

Well, there were injuries back then, right?

I can't remember why there were injuries...

Kasumi, didn't you say Satoshi took your bicycle and—

Okay! Let's go to Viridian City!

That's right! You're supposed to reimburse me for my bicycle!

Hold it right there, Satoshi!

They thought Charizard might've become more obedient.

But they ended up right where they started.

With regained spirit, Satoshi's off to get the next badge...

So, he's headed for Viridian City.

(Yes~)

(ha-dokkoi-dokkoi-dokkoi-natto)

(a-sate-a-sate-sate-sate-sate-sate)

(dod-dod-Dogas do-dod-ga-dod shaa~!)

(do-dod-ga-Dogas dod-dod-dod shaa~!)

The swirling whirlpool, the stomach of the Poliwhirl

(Yes, yes!)

It may be very, very, very, very tough, but...

That's where you (dig, dig), that's where you dig

Woof! Woof!

Poké-Poké-Poké-Pokémon Ondo

Get it with a one-two-a-three, very good

Dance, and dance, and be surprised

(Victreebel!)

Be surprised, be surprised, and step back from there

(Golbat!)

That's all for now~

(Yes~!)

We're taken to a turtle Pokémon island by a Wartorle.

But the King Blastoise has withdrawn its arms and legs and won't come out.

The Rocket Gang appears to kidnap Blastoise.

Leave this to me.

Squirtle, we'll bring Blastoise back together!

Next time on Pocket Monsters:

"Blastoise's Island"

Everyone, get Pokémon!

Blastoise's Island
