That wasn't nice, back when
you were a little Charmander
00:08:17.197 --> 00:08:18.468
you'd do what I say.
00:08:18.468 --> 00:08:20.320
Huh? So what happened?
00:08:20.320 --> 00:08:23.153
There are many times when
a Pokémon's personality
00:08:23.153 --> 00:08:24.374
changes as it evolves.
00:08:24.374 --> 00:08:28.158
But there was no way I was ever
going to give up on Charmeleon
00:08:28.158 --> 00:08:30.390
so I kept battling with it
over and over again.
00:08:30.390 --> 00:08:32.042

Charmeleon evolved
into Charizard.

wouldn't listen to me

just didn't have any ambition.

Sounds more like Charizard
was a big pain.
00:09:42.362 --> 00:09:44.464
Say, Charizard sounds
an awful lot
00:09:44.464 --> 00:09:46.356
like your Dragonite
and Excadrill.
00:09:46.356 --> 00:09:48.138
Aha! You got me.
00:09:48.138 --> 00:09:50.090
So, what happened to Charizard?
00:09:50.090 --> 00:09:52.392
Did its behavior ever come
around after that?
00:09:52.392 --> 00:09:56.045
Yeah, I'll never forget the
time when we all took a trip
00:09:56.045 --> 00:09:57.377

I couldn't think of anything

so I just kept talking,

we were going to keep getting
stronger together.

What's Charizard up to now?
00:11:03.463 --> 00:11:05.465
I must confess,
I'm a bit surprised
00:11:05.465 --> 00:11:07.197
you wouldn't still be traveling
00:11:07.197 --> 00:11:11.040

- Huh?
- Huh?
00:16:36.225 --> 00:16:37.997
They say opposites attract
00:16:37.997 --> 00:16:40.019
but I like say likes
attract, too.
00:16:40.019 --> 00:16:41.430
I think you're exactly right.
00:16:41.430 --> 00:16:43.322
Those two are drawn
to each other.
00:16:43.322 --> 00:16:45.324
Hey. No fighting.
00:16:45.324 --> 00:16:47.326
Dragonite, will you
just chill out?
00:16:47.326 --> 00:16:50.259
[HOSTILE]
00:16:50.259 --> 00:16:52.291
You know, maybe we should
have a battle.
00:16:52.291 --> 00:16:53.332
[gasps]
00:16:53.332 --> 00:16:55.184
Since we can't stop them
from fighting
00:16:55.184 --> 00:16:57.246
it's better to have
them test each other's strength
00:16:57.246 --> 00:16:58.337
in a battle.
00:16:58.337 --> 00:17:00.399
Yeah, I guess
that makes sense.
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:02.371
Alright then, we accept.
00:17:02.371 --> 00:17:05.324
Okay, Dragonite, what do you say
we show those two
00:17:05.324 --> 00:17:07.206
how we do it in
the Unova region?
00:17:07.206 --> 00:17:08.207
[DETERMINED]
00:17:08.207 --> 00:17:09.378
Yeah? What do you say?
00:17:09.378 --> 00:17:10.449
[CONFIDENT]
00:17:10.449 --> 00:17:14.033
I like my battles spicy
and with a lot of heat.
00:17:15.204 --> 00:17:18.117
Alright, Dragonite, use
Flamethrower, full strength.
00:17:18.117 --> 00:17:19.208
[FLAMETHROWER MOVE]
00:17:19.208 --> 00:17:20.409
Use Flamethrower too.
00:17:20.409 --> 00:17:22.141
[FLAMETHROWER MOVE]
00:17:22.141 --> 00:17:23.422
[explosion]
00:17:27.126 --> 00:17:29.028
Now, up in the air.
00:17:29.028 --> 00:17:31.030
[INTENT]
00:17:31.030 --> 00:17:32.281
You too, Dragonite.
00:17:32.281 --> 00:17:35.324
[INTENT]/[EXERTION]
00:17:37.156 --> 00:17:38.387
Thunder Punch, let's go.
00:17:38.387 --> 00:17:39.438
[THUNDERPUNCH MOVE]
00:17:39.438 --> 00:17:41.030
Wing Attack.
00:17:41.030 --> 00:17:43.462
[WING ATTACK MOVE]
00:17:43.462 --> 00:17:46.465
[THUNDERPUNCH MOVE]/
[WING ATTACK MOVE]
00:17:48.067 --> 00:17:49.318
IRIS
Is it over?
00:17:50.349 --> 00:17:53.022
Nope. Alright then, use Slash.
00:17:53.022 --> 00:17:55.444
[SLASH MOVE]
00:17:55.444 --> 00:17:57.246
Use Dragon Rush.
00:17:57.246 --> 00:18:00.329
[DRAGON RUSH MOVE]
00:18:07.136 --> 00:18:10.319
You have to admit my Dragonite
is extra special, don't you?
00:18:10.319 --> 00:18:12.291
- Yeah, we'll see.
- Huh?
00:18:12.291 --> 00:18:14.493
[SURPRISED]/[DETERMINED]
00:18:17.296 --> 00:18:19.428
[DETERMINED]
00:18:19.428 --> 00:18:21.170
[groans]
00:18:21.170 --> 00:18:22.201
But, but, how?
00:18:22.201 --> 00:18:24.033
Show her the results
of your training
00:18:24.033 --> 00:18:25.454
a Dragon-type move
against a Dragon type.
00:18:25.454 --> 00:18:27.406
Now, Charizard, Dragon Tail.
00:18:29.428 --> 00:18:30.990
Dodge it.
00:18:30.990 --> 00:18:33.242
[EXERTION]/[DETERMINED]
00:18:33.242 --> 00:18:34.443
[WARY]/[INTENT]
00:18:34.443 --> 00:18:37.186
[DRAGON TAIL MOVE]
00:18:37.186 --> 00:18:40.319
[PAINED]
00:18:42.401 --> 00:18:45.054
[SATISFIED]
00:18:45.054 --> 00:18:48.257
That was some Dragon-Type move.
Super effective.
00:18:49.298 --> 00:18:52.131
[IMPRESSED]
00:18:52.451 --> 00:18:54.303
[SURPRISED]
00:18:54.303 --> 00:18:56.185
This battle is over.
00:18:56.185 --> 00:18:57.436
- Huh?
- Huh?
00:18:57.436 --> 00:19:00.039
Charizard, Dragonite,
00:19:00.039 --> 00:19:02.411
I sense that you now know
each other's power.
00:19:02.411 --> 00:19:05.164
With that comes
real mutual respect.
00:19:06.195 --> 00:19:08.317
And I sense that
deep within my heart.
00:19:08.317 --> 00:19:10.279
Is N right, Charizard?
00:19:10.279 --> 00:19:11.470
[AFFIRMATIVE]
00:19:11.470 --> 00:19:13.052
Do you agree?
00:19:13.052 --> 00:19:14.053
[AFFIRMATIVE]
00:19:14.053 --> 00:19:15.434
Wow. Terrific.
00:19:15.434 --> 00:19:19.138
Friends. A battle that has
forged a new friendship.
00:19:19.138 --> 00:19:21.180
Camaraderie fills the air.
00:19:21.180 --> 00:19:23.262
That was truly a battle
to remember.
00:19:23.262 --> 00:19:27.036
Right. And thanks for being
a part of it, Dragonite.
00:19:27.036 --> 00:19:29.288
[PLAYFUL]
00:19:29.288 --> 00:19:32.301
Ah, you two had me pretty
worried there for a while
00:19:32.301 --> 00:19:34.103
but I'm so relieved.
00:19:34.103 --> 00:19:35.294
[EMPHATIC]
00:19:35.294 --> 00:19:37.026
It is a bit strange.
00:19:37.026 --> 00:19:39.258
I was sure that Dragon Rush
would've done more.
00:19:39.258 --> 00:19:42.431
After all, Charizard
is a Dragon-type Pokémon.
00:19:42.431 --> 00:19:43.452
- Huh?
- Huh?
00:19:43.452 --> 00:19:45.054
[SHOCKED]
00:19:45.054 --> 00:19:46.335
[chuckles]
00:19:46.335 --> 00:19:48.387
Did I say something funny?
00:19:48.387 --> 00:19:51.090
The thing is Charizard
isn't a Dragon type.
00:19:51.090 --> 00:19:53.372
But I saw Charizard use
Dragon Tail and fly around
00:19:53.372 --> 00:19:57.096
and everything, it sure looks
like a dragon type to me.
00:19:57.096 --> 00:19:58.427
- Look.
- Hmm?
00:19:58.427 --> 00:20:01.170
POKEDEX
Charizard. The Flame Pokémon.
00:20:01.170 --> 00:20:03.332
Charizard is a Flying
and Fire type.
00:20:03.332 --> 00:20:05.174
When competing
in intense battles
00:20:05.174 --> 00:20:08.107
Charizard's flame
becomes more intense as well.
00:20:08.107 --> 00:20:10.389
No, and here I was hoping
I could catch
00:20:10.389 --> 00:20:12.431
a Charizard and raise it too.
00:20:12.431 --> 00:20:14.113
[AMUSED]
00:20:14.113 --> 00:20:17.146
You've really showed me
how strong you've become.
00:20:17.146 --> 00:20:19.338
Would you like to come back
on my journey with me?
00:20:19.338 --> 00:20:21.040
[UNSURE]
00:20:21.040 --> 00:20:23.422
Charizard becoming part of
your team would be great.
00:20:23.422 --> 00:20:26.125
A delicious dollop of firepower.
00:20:26.125 --> 00:20:27.326
I'd love it.
00:20:27.326 --> 00:20:28.347
[EXCITED]
00:20:28.347 --> 00:20:29.458
I would too.
00:20:29.458 --> 00:20:31.150
[THRILLED]
00:20:31.150 --> 00:20:33.132
Okay, Charizard, let's rock.
00:20:33.132 --> 00:20:35.084
[ECSTATIC]
00:20:35.084 --> 00:20:38.167
NARRATOR
It's a happy reunion indeed,
as Ash's Charizard
00:20:38.167 --> 00:20:41.390
has come to the Unova region
and rejoined our heroes.
00:20:41.390 --> 00:20:45.064
We'll soon discover how
Charizard's amazing firepower
00:20:45.064 --> 00:20:48.477
fits into the mix,
as the journey continues.
00:20:52.331 --> 00:20:53.182
