Original subtitles

(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!

Clefairy VS Jigglypuff

Satoshi and his friends are heading for Viridian City, in order to get the final Badge.

But it's also important to take a snack break on the way.

This soft-serve ice cream is great!

They say that this shop is the best in town!

Yes, yes, open wide.

Is it good?

Yeah, it's great!

It's very cool, and really tasty.

This one too...

A Clefairy!

It's very rare to see a Clefairy in the middle of the city like this!

I agree!

That's it. Seems like some pretty good luck, so let's get it!

Clefairy!

Wait, Clefairy!

Hey, Kasumi!

Seriously...

Let's go, Pikachu!

I'm bummed about losing it.

It was a quick one, wasn't it?

There will be another chance.

What is it, Takeshi?

My rucksack is gone!

Hey, mine too!

And mine!

Ah, the soft-serve ice cream is gone too!

I didn't get to eat very much of it...

We don't have time to worry about the ice cream, right?!

Right...

Anyway, we should report this to Officer Junsā.

I've had my pot stolen, so I can't do any business.

Please help me out!

My baby's bottle has been stolen.

Good boy...

My bat's been stolen! I can't play in tonight's big game without it!

Calm down, please calm down, everyone!

I've lost my stuff!

Please find my clothespins!

My TV's remote control!

Everyone, please be quiet!

What's going on?

Have they all been victims of theft, too?

But it's a bit strange.

Why?

A cooking pot and a baby's bottle...

They're just ordinary random things. It's ridiculous.

It's aliens!

Who are you, sir?

Thank you for asking!

I'm the one man who wanders from town to town...

...in order to make contact with aliens!

People call me the man who researches aliens, Hirata!

What a goofball...

What happened?

Ah, Officer Junsā!

Everyone, to be frank with you, the true criminals behind this are aliens!

Aliens?!

Right, aliens.

That's silly. Aliens don't exist.

Non, non, non, what are you talking about, young lady?

Take a look at this.

What do you think about all this evidence I spent years collecting that proves that aliens exist?

Hey, I saw this flying away in the sky.

Really?!

Exactly where and when?!

Uh, well...

Please try to remember it clearly! Say...say something!

Oh, mother!

One night, three days ago...

Above the forest...

On the outskirts of this city...

R-Really?!

Easy, Mr. Hirata!

Ah, I'm sorry. I got too excited.

I remember these robberies had happened since that night.

Hey guys, so the thief really is an alien?!

But why should we help in finding aliens?

Because Officer Junsā is pretty busy dealing with the victims.

We should find our stuff by ourselves.

To be honest, I've wanted to see aliens for a long time.

Yeah, have you now?

So, can we really trust this detector to find aliens?

Wow, this is an amazing response!

The aliens...

Where are the aliens?!

The aliens!

Hey, wait!

Give me back my Pikachu!

Our plan is a success!

Disguising ourselves as aliens and kidnapping Pikachu...

That's the smartest plan in the galaxy.

How do you like the special Rocket Gang cage?

The cage doesn't let any electricity through.

No matter how hard you try, it won't work.

She's right. Save your electricity.

Finally, we got Pikachu!

This is...

It's hanging by that crane!

That's not a real UFO!

Pidgeotto! Please cut the rope!

It looks like we're...

...falling down, falling down, falling down!

Where are we?

I see stars, so we must be in space.

I figured it was you guys!

Who's this bunch?!

Whatever it is you ask us about...

it is the world's pity to answer you!

To prevent the world's destruction.

To protect the world's peace.

Fulfilling the evils of love and truth.

The lovely, charmy villains.

Musashi!

Kojirō!

The Rocket Gang duo soars through the galaxy!

A white hole, a white tomorrow awaits us!

Clefairy?!

Oh, it's reacting!

Is Clefairy actually an alien?!

Jigglypuff!

Could it be...?

Wh-What?! Jigglypuff is an alien, too?!

How can Jigglypuff be an alien?!

Are you an alien, too?

What? How could I be?!

My detector!

My precious device that cost me sweat, tears and ¥2,800 to make!

I'm getting angry. It's like we're being ignored.

They might not understand just how scary the Rocket Gang is.

What are you doing?!

Grab Pikachu and make a break for it nyow!

Wait for us!

This is Light Screen...

Give me back Pikachu!

Wait!

It's a dead end.

That's strange...

I'm sure it went here.

What's going on?

It's too dark to see the inside.

It seems to be deep.

Are we going to go inside?

We have no choice, right?

Oh, Jigglypuff!

All right!

Goodness!

Go!

Me, too!

Who is it?

Clefairy

Ouch!

What's going on?

Where are we?

What's that?!

It's a spaceship!

The Clefairy are making a rocket to take off from Earth.

A rocket?!

That's it.

They're stealing stuff from the city, so they can make their rocket here.

Satoshi, look at that!

What?

Pikachu!

What are they going to do with him?

They probably want to use Pikachu's electric power as the energy for their rocket to blast off.

What?! I can't let them take Pikachu into space!

Yikes, they found us!

Oh no... The countdown has probably already started.

Pikachu! I'm on my way!

Wait, Satoshi!

Mr. Hirata, I'm going to let Officer Junsā know about this.

Wh-Wh-What should I do?!

All right! I'm following the Clefairy, no matter where they go!

Even to the ends of the universe!

It's become nyoisy.

What's going on?

It seems that the twerps are making their move.

Then we'll take action as well.

Let's get both Pikachu and the Clefairy.

The Rocket Gang is taking an actual rocket for the first time.

That sounds strange...

We are the Rocket Gang, but...

Stop chattering and do something!

Great!

What a great machine!

Can it really fly?

Who knows...

Where's Pikachu, anyway?

Pikachu!

Clefairy...

Please, Clefairy. Please give Pikachu back to me!

Pikachu is my best friend, so...

Jigglypuff!

It's Pound!

Clefairy counters Jigglypuff with Pound!

It's Jigglypuff's Double Slap!

Oh my...

Great, great, Jigglypuff!

It's very impressive!

Whoa... Hey, hey, wait for me!

That's it.

Pikachu!

Pikachu, are you all right?!

Be strong, Pikachu!

Wake up, Pikachu!

Oh, this is a cockpit, right?

Well, this seat is kind of comfortable.

Oh, this must be a control stick.

Oh my...

Sorry, I broke it.

This is...

...Jigglypuff's song.

Why is it singing the song now...

Nya...

Just as I thought, Jigglypuff's song is very powerful.

I feel the ship moving...

The ship is flying?!

You've got to believe me, Officer Junsā.

But it's not easy believing that the Clefairy are the thieves...

...or that they're trying to escape into space.

Thank goodness! My baby won't be crying.

Finally, I can take care of my business.

All right, I can take my place in the big game!

Let's start now!

One...two...

This is like...

Yeah, just like...

A two-stage rocket-nya!

This feels bad!

Pikachu!

Good for you, Pikachu.

Good for you, Pikachu.

But why did it explode?

Probably because it couldn't stand Pikachu's electric power.

That's right... Pikachu's electricity is quite powerful.

Look, there's all our missing stuff over there.

Let's get out of here now.

Yeah.

Yikes, it's flying!

Really?

Ah, what should we do?

Satoshi, look there!

That's it!

I'm counting on you, Bulbasaur!

Now!

I wonder if the Clefairy will make it into space?

They'll probably make it.

I think so, too.

What was that?

Something fell down!

What is this?

Are we on the Clefairy home planet already? What a great rocket!

An alien!

Did you say alien?!

Where is it?! Where is it?! I can't see anything!

Thief!

Hey, that's my tent!

Argh, give me back my lantern!

Thank you for everything. Take care.

We will!

See you later!

Goodbye!

Goodbye!

There are still a lot of mysteries about Pokémon.

It's also very important for Pokémon Trainers to find out about these mysteries.

Do your best, Satoshi!

(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~!)

Professor Ōkido's Pokémon Lecture

Well, today's Pokémon is...

Pi-Pikachu!

As you know, #026 is Raichu.

Raichu is a Pokémon which evolves from Pikachu after using a Thunder Stone.

It can use all of the electric attacks.

I love its bread-like hands.

If you make it learn its speed moves while it's still a Pikachu...

...it can develop into a great Pokémon that will have power, all its moves, and amazing speed.

Now, for the poem.

If you've a Raichu at home...

...it will be useful...

...as the home's generator.

If you have a Raichu at home, it will really help with the family's electricity bill.

Everyone, you must get Pokémon as well!

We finally arrive at the Viridian Gym!

We'll challenge the Gym Leader for the eighth Badge!

But unexpectedly, the Rocket Gang is there.

We have a lot of trouble with an unusually powerful Pokémon.

But we can't lose here!

We won't fail to get the Green Badge!

Next time on Pocket Monsters:

"Viridian Gym! The Final Badge!"

Everyone, get Pokémon!

Viridian Gym! The Final Badge!
