Wow. We'll be
at the next island soon.

[EXCITED]

IRIS
I wonder what its name is.

[CURIOUS]
It's Paladin Island.

[FRIENDLY]
Paladin Island?

ALEXA
Right, and there's a famous

old story about a battle

that took place at the foot
of the island's lighthouse.

It was between
the strongest Trainer from Unova

and the strongest Trainer
from Sinnoh.

That sounds amazing.

[IMPRESSED]

- 'Cilan?'
- Hm?

We've just had a phone call come
in for you from Chili and Cress.

Oh. Chili and Cress? Thanks.

- Who are Chili and Cress?
- They're Cilan's brothers.

See, Cilan and his brothers
are the Striaton Gym Leaders.

All three of them.

But since Cilan's
traveling with us

'his brothers are running it.'

Cilan, you're on your way
to Paladin Island right now.

- Is that correct?
- 'Uh, yes, but why?'

We're on our way to
Paladin Island right now too.

But what about the the Gym?

We can explain everything
when we see you.

Huh? I wonder
what could have happened.

ASH
"SURVIVAL OFTHE STRIATON GYM."

NARRATOR
Continuing their shipboard

exploration of the Decolore
Islands on their way to
Kanto

our heroes and Alexa have now
gone ashore on Paladin
Island

to meet up
with Cilan's brothers.

Alright, Gogoat, come on out.

[APPEARING]

So you guys are gonna be waiting
for Cilan's brothers, right?

Right.

Then, I think I'm gonna go on
to the lighthouse.

[gasps]
[URGENT]

What was that?

[screaming]

Is something wrong, Alexa?

I forgot the deadline
for the article

I've been working on is today.

Ah. Oh.

So it's off to the
Pokémon Center instead.

- You'll get it done.
- Alright.

- What about us?
- Man, I'm starving.

IRIS/CILAN
Huh!

Hey, I don't remember
when you weren't starving, Ash.

- What a kid.
- Hey, give me a break.

Alright, my brothers are going
to be here really soon

so let's call it lunchtime.

Now you're talking.

But since it always seems
to fall upon you

to do all the cooking for us

why don't you let Ash and me
do the cooking for a change?

Huh? You and me?

Now, you don't have
to do that.

I do the cooking
because I adore cooking.

Come on, just this once?

What do you say, Ash?

Yeah, you deserve to take
a break once in a while.

[EAGER]

Alright. But Pansage
and I can help too.

We'll go gather some berries
for dessert. Can't we?

[EAGER]

Hmm. Huh?
Ash, you're burning the food.

- Whoa.
- No! Ow. It's hot!

This cooking stuff is harder
than I thought.

Sure is. Without Cilan,
I think we'd be hungry a lot.

[SHEEPISH]

Hey!

[EXCITED]

Wow. They look yummy.

Pansage gets the credit
for collecting them.

IRIS
'Thanks, Pansage.'

[THANKFUL]

[SURPRISED]

[CURIOUS]

ASH
Whoa. That's an Abomasnow.

Abomasnow.
The Frost Tree Pokémon.

Abomasnow live quietly
on snow-covered mountains.

They create snowstorms
to hide themselves.

Guess it's a Wild Pokémon.

Why don't we share our berries
with Abomasnow?

[AGREEMENT]

[FRIENDLY]

[FLASH MOVE]

[all gasp]
[PAINED]

Pansage, are you okay?

Well, that's for getting
too close to my Abomasnow.

So Abomasnow's your Pokémon?

Yes.
You have a problem with that?

It didn't have to attack
Pansage for no reason.

That's right.

Pansage was trying
to be nice and share.

If you don't like it,
I suggest you keep your Pokémon

in its Poké Ball, children.

[all grunt]

- 'Hey!'
- Cilan!

- 'Chili. Cress.'
- Hey, buddy!

Cilan?

- So. You're here.
- You got here fast.

Huh? Do you know her?

You could say that. In a way.

She's a Trainer who recently
came to the Striaton Gym

and challenged us.

My name is Morana.

So you're the little boy
they call Cilan.

I don't understand.

Will you tell me
what's going on?

Sure. It all began
about a week ago or so.

What's this all about?

If you're not trying
to win a Gym badge

then what are you here for?

A battle.

I couldn't care less
about a Gym badge.

If I'm victorious, I want
possession of the Gym itself.

What?

Why would you want
to own the Striaton Gym?

To amuse myself.
Do you have a problem with that?

MORANA
'Do you accept my challenge?

Or not?'

There's no way we'd accept a
ridiculous challenge like that.

So. You're afraid.

Afraid? Of all the insulting.

Alright!
I accept your challenge!

CRESS
'Calm down, Chili.'

If we lose, remember,
we lose the Gym as well.

I won't let her win.

I promise you it'll be the most
crushing defeat ever!

[chuckles]

There's nothing I enjoy
more than taking stuck-up

little hotheads like you two
down a couple of notches.

Each side will use one Pokémon.

The battle will be over
when the Pokémon on either side

is unable to continue. Alright?

Sure, and since I came
all the way from Sinnoh

try not to lose right away.

Prepare for a fiery battle
that will leave you overdone.

Alright, Pansear, go!

[APPEARING]

Here we go!

[APPEARING]

Mamoswine's an Ice
and Ground-type Pokémon.

And that means our Fire type
moves will be super effective.

Pansear, use Fire Punch!

Mamoswine, Ice Fang.

[ICE FANG MOVE]

[PAINED]

Damn.

[thinking]
She overcame their type

disadvantage with power.

Now use Double Hit.

[DOUBLE HIT MOVE]

Quick.
Intercept with Flame Charge!

[FLAME CHARGE MOVE]

[DOUBLE HIT MOVE]

[PAINED]
Pansear, no!

Ice Beam, let's go.

[ICE BEAM MOVE]

[PAINED]

Pansear. Ah.

- Looks to me like I win.
- Are you okay?

Pansear?
[STUNNED]

MORANA
'Well, talk about boring.'

You're a Gym Leader too,
right, little boy?

'So shall we?'

Now, that you've beaten Chili,
I have no choice but to accept.

Alright, Panpour. Come on out!

[DETERMINED]

Here we go!

[CONFIDENT]

Glalie.
Another Ice-type Pokémon.

Please don't bore me too.

Hm. Alright, Panpour,
Scratch, let's go!

[SCRATCH MOVE]
Headbutt.

[HEADBUTT MOVE]
[SCRATCH MOVE]

[PAINED]

- Ah.
- Oh, dear.

It looks like
yet another boring battle.

[DETERMINED]

That's the way. Water Gun.

[WATER GUN MOVE]

Use Water Pulse.

[WATER PULSE MOVE]

[DISTRESSED]

[PAINED]

- Panpour.
- Now use Sheer Cold.

[SHEER COLD MOVE]

[STUNNED]

Oh! Panpour. Ah.

You're both too weak for words.
What a bore.

This Gym is hardly
worth the effort.

Really? You still have
to deal with Cilan.

Cilan?

He's our brother,
and the third Gym Leader.

He's not here now,
but the three of us have been

running the Gym together
from the start.

He's unbeatable!

I'll witness him wipe the floor
with you!

All a bunch
of meaningless blather. Fine.

You can continue
to run your pathetic Gym

until I defeat your brother.

So where is this weak excuse
for a Gym Leader?

CILAN
Well, that explains why you'd

come all the way here.

MORANA
Exactly, I thought it would be

rather cute to have a battle

right here on this island,
scene of the famous battle

between the Sinnoh and Unova
Trainers so long ago.

This is a lot more important
than that.

It's about the Striaton Gym.

Its fate rests
on the outcome of our battle.

Oh. So you are going
to accept my challenge.

Of course,
if you decided to say no

then your beloved Striaton Gym
would be mine.

Don't worry. I accept.

Good. One hour from now.

I'll be waiting
at the lighthouse.

GROUP
Who's that Pokémon?

It's Abomasnow.

Okay, Cilan,
what Pokémon are you planning

to use against Morana?

I think you know
the answer to that.

[EAGER]

Oh. I forgot.

You wanna reconnect too.

[AFFECTIONATE]

But in our battles,
Morana had the same strategy

using an Ice-type Pokémon.

And we know she has Abomasnow.

I think that means she'll be
using an Ice type this time too.

But if that's true, shouldn't
you use a Pokémon like Crustle

who is really strong
against Ice types?

Pansage and I have had a special
bond for a very long time.

We've been together since
my earliest days at the Gym

and I've been traveling longer
with my Pansage

than anybody else.

That's why winning this battle
with Pansage

will mean so much to us.

[DETERMINED]
Well, you've convinced me.

And me as well.

Perhaps a little evaluation time
with Pansage

would be just the thing.

[AGREEMENT]

'Pansage shares the leaves
on its head'

with any Pokémon in need.

Such a wonderfully
kind partner.

Its special ability is Gluttony.

And since Pansage loves to cook,
we're a perfect match.

'Also Pansage has the knack
for finding berries anywhere'

so for a Connoisseur
like myself

nothing could be better.

Truly, Pansage and I are the
most perfect of partners.

[EUPHORIC]

And next are Pansage's moves.

As follows, Bullet Seed,
Solar Beam

then there's Dig
and there's Rock Tomb.

I call that a wide variety
of move types

which means nothing less than
a delicious blend of Grass

Ground and Rock type moves.

- An excellent mix.
- Yeah.

You should be able to beat
Morana for sure.

Overconfidence is dangerous.

I know I'm going to have
to rely upon every single thing

I've learned
during my traveling time.

Wow, Cilan,
that's a lot of stuff.

Ah, yes, indeed.

I've learned so much
from battling Ash

and from battling alongside
him as well.

And, Iris, I've learned a lot
from you too.

'About the bond between
Trainer and Pokémon.'

You learned from me?

[Iris chuckles]

IRIS
Aw, come on now.

[no audio]

Both you and Ash have
the amazing gift of drawing

the most
out of all of your Pokémon.

Your hearts and theirs
match perfectly.

And when you're able
to do that successfully

it can mean everything.

I don't really understand
everything you just said

but you're good with Pokémon,
you know.

Mm-hm, he's right.

No one draws out the best
in their Pokémon

like you do, Cilan.

Why, thank you.
I'm happy to hear that.

- It's all up to you.
- Please defend our Gym.

- For us.
- Right.

I'll give it all I've got,
and I will emerge victorious.

So this is where the Sinnoh
and Unova Trainers battled

all those years ago.

But where's Morana?

MORANA
'Waiting for you.'

ASH/IRIS/CILAN
Hm..

So, little boy,
you didn't run away.

And neither did you.

We use one Pokémon each.

The battle will be over
when either side's Pokémon

is unable to continue.
Do you accept?

Sure.

[OPTIMISTIC]

[CONFIDENT]

Here we go!

[APPEARING]

- Huh.
- Of course.

Its special ability
is Snow Warning.

Right. Let's start
the proceedings.

We're going to employ a powerful
move that will cut through

that white velvet blanket
like a knife through butter.

Pansage, Bullet Seed.

[BULLET SEED MOVE]

We'll use Bullet Seed too.

[BULLET SEED MOVE]

[EXERTION]

Now, use Dig!

[DIG MOVE]

Pansage managed to dodge it.

Hey, Cilan. Counterattack.

[EMPHATIC]

[PAINED]

- Yes!
- Excellent work.

Strength, let's go.

[STRENGTH MOVE]

[PAINED]

Pansage!

Nice recovery. Now, Solar Beam!

[SOLAR BEAM MOVE]

Blizzard.

[BLIZZARD MOVE]

[grunts]
Right.

I'm a Pokémon Connoisseur.
So guess what time it is?

Ah. I know, I know.

[EXCITED]
Hm. That's right.

- It's evaluation time!
- Huh?

And we know
what evaluation time means.

It's a sure sign that Cilan is
battling at his absolute best.

First, the Frost Tree Pokémon

Abomasnow's Ability
is Snow Warning.

A perfect match for the way
you conduct yourself

in the icy way you do.

But that's not the best way
for a Trainer

and Pokémon to become one.

Rather, it's preferable to reach
out with warmth and caring.

Who cares about warmth
and caring?

Me, without a deep connection,
you and your Pokémon

can't wage a battle with depth

and your strategy recipe
becomes boring and predictable.

[scoffs]
Your tiresome tongue wagging

is becoming boring
and predictable.

- 'I wonder.'
- Uh.. Hm?

I've seen
countless Pokémon battles

during the time
I've been on this journey.

And I've experienced
battles firsthand.

During that time, I've had deep battles and shallow
ones

ones that were transparent and
light, and ones that were rich

and thick, spicy battles
that bite your tongue

and mild battles
that go down easily.

I've even had wild battles
that left a rough feeling

in the back of my throat and
a bitter taste on my palate.

And even more kinds of battles
I haven't even touched upon.

And the one thing I've learned
from all of them is the pure joy

of joining one's heart together
with Pokémon.

'That's the ultimate.'

Joining hearts
is what it's all about.

Mm-hmm. Sure is.

In the very same way,
we three brothers have joined

our hearts together as one.

Right.

CHILI
I remember how we simply

enjoyed battling among

the three of us as kids,
but as we grew older

and trained, we each
developed our own unique
battling style.

CRESS
Later, when all three of us

became Gym Leaders

we learned how to support
each other's weak points

while constantly striving
to enhance

each other's
strong points.

As we continued to help
each other become stronger

as Gym Leaders and Trainers,
it became clear.

We realized
the most important thing

is for Trainer and Pokémon
to become one.

Hm. What a bore.

The only important thing
is to keep winning.

The only thing that matters
to me is the thrill of victory!

Maybe for you,
but we've all discovered that

even if you somehow
manage to win

if you're not one
with your Pokémon

you'll never experience
the true joy of winning.

Enough. Your time
for this nonsense is over.

Now use Sheer Cold.

[SHEER COLD MOVE]

Pansage, dodge it with Dig!

[DIG MOVE]

Aim at the hole
and use Blizzard.

Bullet Seed!
[BULLET SEED MOVE]

[PAINED]

- Pansage, Rock Tomb!
- Behind you.

[ROCK TOMB MOVE]

[BLIZZARD MOVE]

[DISTRESSED]
Pansage!

[WORRIED]

Now, let's find out if your
oneness can help Pansage

escape from its icy predicament.

[grunting]

And if it can't, perhaps
we'll just crack that ice!

Strength, let's go!

[STRENGTH MOVE]

- Look out!
- Cilan!

Even inside all that ice, the
sun's rays can still permeate.

And my voice can reach
Pansage too.

[STRUGGLING]

[STRENGTH MOVE]
Pansage, let's go!

[URGENT]
[INTENT]

Pansage, Solar Beam, go!

[SOLARBEAM MOVE]

[PAINED]

- But how?
- Alright, Pansage, Rock Tomb!

[ROCK TOMB MOVE]
[ALARMED]

Full power!

[WORRIED]

[DAZED]

Wow, they did it!
Cilan, that was awesome!

Way to go.

[EXCITED]

Huh?

- Oh.
- Cilan did it.

I knew he would.

[ECSTATIC]

Pansage, you were great.

[GRATEFUL]

Huh?
[DISORIENTED]/[SURPRISED]

[CONCERNED]

[WARM]

[CURIOUS]

[SURPRISED]/[PLEASED]

We're all friends
after the battle.

Yeah. All Pokémon
should be friends.

Right.

[EMPHATIC]

CILAN
'Wait a minute.'

The next time I see you,
I'm going to beat you.

Hm.

[IMPRESSED]

[PLEASED]

'Hurry or the ship will leave
without us.'

So, did you finish up
your article?

[laughing]
Well, actually, no.

[laughing]

So the ship back to Unova
leaves in an hour.

- Guess we should say goodbye.
- Take care. And thank you.

- But, oh..
- Huh?

Hey, Ash, and, Iris.
Take good care.

And take good care
of Cilan as well.

Right. We won't let you down.

Spoken just like a little kid.

You know, I've been thinking.

Maybe I should go back
to the Striaton Gym

with the two of you.

CHILI/CRESS
Huh?

[gasps]

Why were you thinking
about that?

The truth is, I worry
about the Striaton Gym.

What if somebody else
like Morana

shows up and challenges
you again?

Cilan, I want you to answer this
question honestly.

Are you enjoying your journey?

ASH/IRIS
Ah.

Yes.

Then don't worry
about the Gym.

Right, I promise
that from here on out

Cress and I will defend it
just as you would.

Cress, Chili.

Travel to your heart's content.
We want that.

CILAN
'Thank you.'

[AFFECTIONATE]

CHILI/CRESS
'Best wishes. Safe journey.'

NARRATOR With a tough
battle behind him,

Cilan has defended

the Striaton Gym for
himself and his brothers.

And soon, our heroes will
arrive in Kanto

as the journey continues.

[theme music]
