NARRATOR Continuing their journey
to the White Ruins where they hope to learn more
about Reshiram, our heroes have now added
a fellow traveler to their trek, the mysterious N.
Wow, Virbank City. It's been a long time.
Well, this Film Connoisseur
would be quite happy to actually see
a few movies this time around.
So, you've been to Virbank City before?
Uh-huh, we were in a Pokéstar Studios movie
with our friend Luke directing.
- What's that smell? - What's wrong? What smell?
You really don't smell that?
- Is that it? - Huh?
- What? - Rising smoke.
A fire!
Let's check it out.

ASH "The Pokémon Harbor Patrol!"
- This is bad. - It's huge. What a blaze.
Hmm?
What do we do?
Oshawott. Put out the fire with Hydro Pump!
/
Huh?
Who's that?
POKEDEX Watchog. The Lookout Pokémon.
The markings on Watchog's body can glow
to intimidate its foes, it has excellent vision
even in darkness.
Watchog, why are you stopping us?
/
- Huh? - Hmm?
Look at that.
CILAN 'Dewott and Frillish.'
Use Hydro Pump.
Check out that power.
Frillish, use Psychic and rescue
anyone trapped inside.
But they're.. They're dummies.
CILAN You're right. Hold on.
So does this mean this is a firefighting drill?
Sure looks that way.
Uh, it looks like we kind of goofed up.
ASH 'Oshawott, return.'
/
No, Watchog, you're not supposed to leave your station.
/
Oh, no.
PIKACHU
- You okay? - Yeah, thanks. I'm good.
- Shaken, but fine. - That's great.
But it wouldn't be all that great
if Watchog hadn't saved you guys.
Is Watchog able to predict the future?
Hmm, it is a well-known fact
that Watchog can see its surroundings
even in darkness, but it's rumored
'to be able to see through walls'
'and even down into the ground.'
Well, it seems to me that my friend
sensed the danger thanks to those skills.
Your friend?
That's what he said. He calls all Pokémon friends.
Not only that, he can hear a Pokémon's inner voice.
Wow. Amazing.
So, who are you?
Forgive us. A pleasure to meet you.
My name's Cilan and I'm a Pokémon Connoisseur.
I'm Ash. And this is my partner Pikachu.
And I'm Iris.
This is Axew.
Right, and this guy back here
is named N.
I'm Halsey, I'm the captain of the Pokémon Harbor Patrol
and this is my team.
Pokémon Harbor Patrol? That's so cool.
Thank you.
I'm flattered, but being cool
has nothing to do with the job we do.
Our job, cool or not, is monitoring the safety
of people and Pokémon and coming to the aid of those
whose lives are in danger.
Whoa!
Many large ships come into this harbor
every single day.
HALSEY And there's also
the Virbank Complex
located right next to the ocean.
It's a dangerous job protecting so much
but someone has to do it.
That's why the Pokémon Harbor Patrol's
teamwork is job one.
Wait a second.
You're all wearing red scarves.
Of course.
All of the Pokémon Harbor Patrol members
wear red scarves to show we're a team.
/
Huh? Why is Dewott angry?
It's upset because Watchog left its station.
I have to agree, I know you did it to help us
but you never leave your station
no matter what.
Because your job is to keep the public safely away
from the danger zone at all costs.
'If you don't, and someone gets into the danger zone'
'by mistake, we won't be able to do our job'
'and fully concentrate our efforts on their rescue.'
/
Huh?
I think Watchog's trying to tell you something.
Right. Watchog wants to help with the rescues too.
- You really think so? - Of course.
From what Halsey said, Watchog has been a lookout
and only a lookout throughout its Harbor Patrol career.
No wonder it wants to be part of the rescue effort.
Well.
I understand Watchog's feelings, but what to do?
Wait. How about this?
Maybe there's some sort of aptitude test
Watchog could take to see how good of a rescuer it is.
There is. Then, pass or fail
Watchog will know where it stands.
Great. Then how about now?
- No Twerps like our Twerps. - True.
- And one of a kind Pikachu. - Hm.
Why's the hair dude hanging with the Twerps?
'Something about him chaps my charm.'
Wait, it might be fun to catch Pikachu
in front of Mr. Friend to All Pokémon.
What a friendly thing to do.
Our first rescue challenge will be a test of strength.
HALSEY 'Dewott, please demonstrate.'
/
- Ah! - Oh my!
- 'Amazing.' - Oh, man.
- That Dewott's strong. - True.
Watchog. You're next.
/
You can do it, Watchog!
/
Wow!
Nice job, Watchog.
- 'Is that a move?' - 'Right. It's using Strength.'
Now, walls and rubble can be obstacles during a rescue
so that's your next test.
Okay, Dewott, you're first.
/
Excellent!
Great move. A double Razor Shell.
Now, Watchog, it's your turn.
- It used Cut. - That was such an awesome job.
And last but not least, the firefighting test.
- Excellent! - Say.
I'm not sure I've ever seen
such a dense and powerful Hydro Pump.
Next. Go, Watchog.
Sand Attack?
Good luck putting out that fire.
You can do it, Watchog.
/
Watchog?
- Uh! - Oh, no.
/
Watchog, are you okay?
Well, there goes passing the test.
Now, listen to me, Watchog.
Pokémon have various skills that can be helpful
during all sorts of rescue efforts.
And one of your skills is being able to sense things.
'Which brings me to the conclusion'
'that being a lookout is still best for you.'
We need a lookout.
It's much more important than you realize.
Remember that, okay?
Good. I'm glad you understand.
We're counting on you.
Being a Harbor Patrol member is cool.
They all seem to have such a strong bond.
It fills me with awe.
Well, I don't approve of the idea of recruiting
Pokémon for dangerous rescue efforts at all.
No? Why?
Pokémon have a magnificent world that's all their own.
I wouldn't mind if Pokémon were rescuing other Pokémon
but I can't agree with rescuing people.
Those Pokémon will never find happiness doing that.
While it's true that Pokémon have saved
people's lives from time to time.
Please remember, people have saved
Pokémon's lives as well.
When it comes to rescue, there isn't any difference
between people and Pokémon.
- I wonder about that. - What are you saying?
Huh?
Harbor Patrol, this is Halsey here.
Huh? What? At the industrial complex?
But the Virbank kindergarten class is there today.
I need you to evacuate everyone immediately.
We're on our way.
- Trouble? - You heard that call, Ash.
I have to get over there right now.
Please let us come with you and help.
No. Thank you, but it's too dangerous.
At least let us help evacuate people.
- We won't get in your way. - She's right. Please?
Alright. Come along.
ASH/IRIS/CILAN Right.
Mm, I love when opportunity knocks
and we don't even have to open the door.
Such sweet chaos. Covering us to cop Pikachu.
Yeah, so let's do what we got to do.
ASH/CILAN/IRIS Who's that Pokémon?
ASH/CILAN/IRIS It's Watchog.
WATCHOG
Hurry! This way.
Turn right, you'll see people over there
who will safely guide you out.
Hey, over here!
Everyone stay calm!
- Any more? - That's everyone.
- Okay. Please hurry. - Right.
Now that you're all here everything will be fine.
CHILDREN Thank you.
Is everyone out?
There are a few workers still inside.
- Where did it start? - 'In the rear of the complex.'
- But we have no idea why. - I see.
We need to extinguish the fire right away.
But if there are still workers inside..
- We'll take care of it. - Huh?
- What did you say? - We'll get the rest out.
You guys go deal with the fire.
Alright. And thanks.
Watchog, I need you to keep an eye out
so no one enters the danger zone, understand?
Let's go.
- Hey, over here! - That's great.
They got out.
There it is.
Dewott, use Razor Shell to slice it open.
Then Frillish, use Hydro Pump to put out the fire.
/
HALSEY We need to make sure it's out.
Hey, look. More workers.
Over here! Over here!
Glad you're all okay. There anyone left?
There's still a bunch inside.
- Please, save them. - Save them? Okay.
/
- That was easy. - Easy as pie.
- Aye. - Hey.
Just what do you guys think you're doing
taking Pikachu like that?
Hmm.
Prepare for trouble, you know the drill.
And make it double, you'll get your fill.
To protect the world from devastation.
To unite the people within our nation.
To denounce the evils of truth and love.
To extend our reach to the stars above.
It's Jessie.
And James.
Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light.
Surrender now or prepare to fight.
Meowth, that's right.
- Team Rocket. - You three never give up.
Give me back Pikachu.
Oshawott, I choose you.
Yamask, Will-O-Wisp.
/
Now, use Hydro Pump.
Woobat, use Air Slash.
/
Axew, Dragon Rage.
Quick, Oshawott, use Razor Shell.
/
Nice job, Oshawott.
Not if it's unfinished. Woobat, Hidden Power.
/
- Oh! - Oh, no!
PIKACHU
HALSEY Fire extinguished.
Mission accomplished.
What's that?
What's going on?
/
Dewott, what's wrong?
The fire doors are closing. Come on. Let's get out of here.
Oh! Huh! Oh!
Pikachu, Thunderbolt. Go!
Give up. You can't win.
- Well, you can lose. - And you will, no doubt.
For now, we're cutting out.
- 'Ash?' - Huh?
The fire's getting worse!
Hurry up!
Right. Oshawott, Hydro Pump!
- Uh-oh! - No good.
I'm gonna go find Halsey.
- Huh? - Huh?
Halsey. Are you there?
ASH 'Can you hear me, Halsey?'
- Ash, is that you? - Yeah.
And the power transmission station's on fire.
That can't be.
So, Oshawott's trying hard to put it out
but it's not strong enough.
We're locked in here, the fire doors
closed automatically and now we're trapped.
You're trapped?
If that fire spreads throughout the complex
then we're sunk.
Ash, you need to take your friends
and leave the area now.
ASH 'Wait, but what about you guys?'
We'll figure something out.
- 'Evacuate now.' - I can't leave. No way.
Look, Ash. Do what I say.
Sorry. I'll stay and put the fire out.
I've got to get back to Oshawott, right now.
Go ahead. We'll figure out how to get Halsey out of there.
- Don't worry. - 'Thanks guys.'
I've got it, we could dig a tunnel in
and get them out that way.
That's a great idea.
Excadrill, let's go!
Use Dig to make a tunnel and get everyone out.
[DIG MOVE
Go for it!
Keep it up, Oshawott.
It's not putting the fire out.
'What do we do?' PIKACHU
Oh, no. What happened?
The rock is too hard.
- It can't get through. - It can't be.
Hmm.
What's happening in there?
Yeah. What's wrong?
N Watchog.
Please, help us. Come along with me.
Huh, so Watchog will be able to avoid the hard bedrock?
Right, Watchog will be able to detect
how hard the ground is and I'll tell you
when it finds out, so you can guide Excadrill.
- That makes sense. - Got it.
I'm counting on you, my friend.
Good.
- Make a right turn. - Okay.
Alright, Excadrill, make a right.
/
- Go down. - Now, go down.
/
- Go left. - Excadrill, go left.
Now straight and you'll hit the passageway wall.
You're close, go straight
and you'll soon be at the passageway wall.
It's Excadrill.
Just stay with it, Oshawott.
/
Huh? Oshawott, no.
HALSEY 'Dewott. Frillish.
Use Hydro Pump.'
Huh?
- It's Halsey. - Thank you, Ash and Oshawott.
We'll take it from here.
Now, Watchog, use Sand Attack.
Awesome.
It's out. What a relief.
Finally. I can breathe again.
Thanks to all of you for doing such an excellent job.
- Hmm. - Cilan told me.
That it was you who thought of using
Watchog's sensing skills to help us out.
You know, I always figured
Watchog was best suited for the job of lookout
but I might have to rethink that one again.
Your quick thinking avoided a disaster. Thank you.
You're not the only one
who's going to need to rethink things.
HALSEY/ASH/IRIS/CILAN Huh?
'The idea of putting friends in harm's way..'
I mean, Pokémon risking their well being
in order to save people bothered me
but then I saw what was in Watchog's heart.
- And I realized.. - What?
N 'Watchog doesn't help people'
because it has to, but because it wants to.
People or Pokémon, it doesn't matter.
Watchog wants to be of service to everyone
and that truly comes from the bottom of its heart.
And I'm sure Frillish and Dewott feel the same way as well.
Which means, if I truly care about their happiness
then I have no choice but to respect their wishes.
- Thank you. - Wow, N.
You all were such a big help today.
I promise I'll do everything to bring out the best
each member of my team has to offer.
After all, it can only help our rescue efforts.
- All the best, Halsey. - Thanks, N.
We're going to be heading on our way now. Take care.
And I hope we see you guys again.
- Thanks, and best wishes. - Take care.
Bye-bye.
NARRATOR Thanks to our heroes
the Pokémon Harbor Patrol
has broadened its outlook, and so has N.
Now, the focus is once again on the White Ruins and Reshiram 505 00:20:41
