-Huh? Who's that Pokémon? -[Pokémon cooing]
[chimes]
[Rotom Phone] Drifloon. The Balloon Pokémon.
A Ghost and Flying type.
Drifloon grab children's hands as if they were going to guide them
to the Ghost World.
-The Ghost World? -Huh?
Catching them's the last thing I wanna do.
[gasps] Stay away from me.
Hey. Hey. [Goh whimpers]
[Ash in hoarse voice] Listen, you.
-Ash? -Pika?
What's your problem with the Ghost World?
Oh, man. There I go, saying weird things again!
-[Goh screaming] -[Ash laughing]
We're gonna grab on to you!
Pika, pika!
-Stop! Get away! -Pika.
[grunts]
[screams]
Pika!
[laughing]
-Hold on. This is not the Ghost World. -[chimes]
[Rotom Phone] Although Drifloon tug on children's hands,
they often end up getting pulled around instead.
What is your problem?
[laughing hysterically]
[snoring]
[chuckles] It's using it as a pillow.
Mm-hm. Max Mushrooms seem to be a favorite.
[Rotom Phone] Drakloak.
The Caretaker Pokémon. A Dragon and Ghost type.
Drakloak can fly faster than 120 miles per hour.
It cares for and battles alongside a Dreepy.
-[Ash] Is that one the Dreepy? -[moaning]
-Pika… -[grunts]
[Pikachu chitters]
Dreepy?
[chattering]
[Ash gasps]
[chattering]
-[muttering] -Oh?
-[snores] -Oh, no!
-It thinks I'm Drakloak! -So cute!
-It's fast asleep! -[mutters]
Huh? It's awake.
[muttering]
[chattering]
[chimes]
[Rotom Phone] Drakloak cannot relax without Dreepy on its head,
but other Pokémon can substitute at times.
[both gasp]
[gibbering]
[Goh] Hey, Grookey, stop that!
[chittering]
[yelling]
-[Grookey shrieking] -[Goh] What'll we do?
[Ash] What can we do?
[Ash] Whoa! Those Slowpoke have yellow foreheads.
[Goh] You're right.
[chimes]
[Rotom Phone] Slowpoke. Galarian form.
The Dopey Pokémon. A Psychic type.
This form of Slowpoke lives in the Galar region.
Their facial expressions are normally spacey,
but sometimes they appear focused.
[Goh] So, they're Galarian Slowpoke.
They weren't here on our last visit.
[yawning]
This must be the first time they've seen each other.
Really? To me, it looks like they're all just spacing out.
[moaning]
[soft groan]
I have no idea what any of them are thinking.
-Uh-oh! -Huh?
-[mumbles] -[Ash] Whoa!
Maybe it's a taste test.
[Goh] It's said that Slowpoke tails are sweet.
Slowpoke!
Looks like it didn't like the taste.
It must taste bad.
[Slowpoke] Slow.
[Ash gasps]
-Now the other one. -Pika.
[chomping]
-Slowpoke! Slowpoke! -What?
What's wrong?
-Pikachu! -[Grookey gibbering]
[slurps]
[screaming]
[whimpering]
Hey, Grookey. Was it hot?
Pika, pika.
[Grookey mumbling]
So much for being sweet.
I guess they taste differently.
[Rotom Phone] Because they eat Galarica seeds from the Galar region,
their tails have a spicy flavor.
Wow, I get it!
Maybe their diet has something to do with why they look different.
Pika.
-What's going on with them? -[Ash laughing]
Pika.
[Rotom Phone] Nincada. The Trainee Pokémon.
A Bug and Ground type.
Nincada can live underground for more than ten years,
taking in nutrients from tree roots.
[trilling]
[gasps] Wait. Don't tell me that those are…
-They're evolving? -[grumbling]
[Rotom Phone] Ninjask. The Ninja Pokémon.
A Bug and Flying type.
Ninjask are so fast, they are said to be able to dodge any attack.
-[Goh whimpers] -Here they come!
Ash! [groans]
Pika, pika! [grunting]
[all whimper]
[groans]
[mumbles]
[Rotom Phone] Corviknight. The Raven Pokémon.
A Flying and Steel type.
Corviknight has no rivals in the Galar region skies.
Its shimmering black steel body daunts opponents and causes fear.
[screeching angrily]
[Dreepy horde chittering]
[Leon] They're acting strangely.
[screaming]
What did the Dreepy and Wooloo do?
Those Corviknight seem like they're extremely irritated.
Corviknight!
[Leon] If we don't stop them, someone will get hurt!
Dragapult, let's go!
You're gonna battle them?
If need be! Alright, let's get them to follow us!
[screeching]
Hey, come get me!
[Leon] What are you waiting for?
[screeching continues]
You're just itching for a fight, aren't you guys?
All right, challenge accepted! Dragapult, go!
[Covirknight screeching]
[screaming]
I wonder if you can keep up with my Dragapult.
[loud screeching]
[Ash] What's Leon got up his sleeve?
But why would those Corviknight start attacking the Dreepy?
[Ash] It's like they were keeping them away from the cliffs!
[roars]
[tense music]
[Leon] You're too slow!
[tense music continues]
Maybe something's up there!
'Kay!
[screeching]
Trying to trap us?
Dragapult, let's break through to the front!
Dodge it!
Dragapult, return!
[Corviknight screeching]
[Leon grunts]
Whoa! You're a lively one!
Wow! That's awesome!
-Pika… -Oh. Right!
-[Corviknight screeching] -[Leon scoffs]
I guess it's about time…
[grunts]
[Corviknight chittering]
You're calm now?
Don't worry. I'm your friend.
Now, let's fly!
[Leon laughs]
[grunting]
-Huh? -Pika…
[suspenseful music]
[Rotom Phone chimes] Rookidee.
The Tiny Bird Pokémon. A Flying type.
Although Rookidee has a small body, it confronts Pokémon of any size.
Corviknight is its final evolved form.
[chimes]
[Rotom Phone] Slowbro, Galarian form.
They're Hermit Crab Pokémon. A Poison and Psychic type.
When Slowbro squeezes the tongue of the Shellder biting its arm,
the Shellder shoots poisonous liquid from the tip of its shell.
[pensive music]
Neither one of them is moving.
Maybe they'll have a battle!
I'm pretty sure that isn't on their minds.
-Pika. -Grookey-roo.
[mumbling]
[yells]
[both mumbling]
-Huh? -[chimes]
[Rotom Phone] Corsola, Galarian form.
The Coral Pokémon. A Ghost type.
This ancient form of Corsola disappeared as a result of sudden climate change.
If someone kicks it, mistaking it for a stone,
it will attack.
That means, you must never ever kick one!
Easy to say, but how do I know which is a stone or a Corsola?
-It's impossible. -I've got a great idea!
We'll just fly over to the Max Mushrooms.
That way, we won't kick any Corsola or rocks!
That definitely seems doable. I think.
-[Ash] You're up, Gengar. -Gengar!
Ash, be careful!
-I mean, just don't fall. -[Pokémon chittering]
I'm fine.
[whimpers] Oopsie.
[all groaning]
[light suspenseful music]
Almost got them.
[Ash grunting]
Yes!
They're mine!
[both laugh]
[all yelp]
Corsola!
-It's one of the Corsola. -[screams]
Sorry, really.
[Goh] This is bad! You'll be cursed!
[yelps]
[warbling]
[rustles]
-Goh? -Shh!
[beeps]
[chimes]
[Goh's Rotom] Thwackey. The Beat Pokémon.
A Grass type.
Using its two sticks,
Thwackey beats out a high-tempo rhythm
so it can gain the respect of its peers.
Whaddaya know!
Your next evolutionary form!
Key-key-key?
-Huh? -Huh?
[Goh] It should have two sticks…
Oh, look, it's getting away!
[yelps]
Poké Ball, go!
-[thumps] -What are you…
Whoa…
[grunting]
Grookey-key-key.
[Rotom Phone] Slowking. Galarian form.
The Hexpert Pokémon.
A mix of poisons and the shock of evolving
can give Shellder's intellect a massive upgrade.
In fact, the Shellder can control the Slowking.
-It's scary just looking at it. -Man, is it powerful!
Slow, slow, slowking, slowking. Slowking, slowking, slowking.
-What's it saying? -Some kind of curse?
[Slowking muttering]
Pika? Pika, pika!
Grookey, key!
[Slowking muttering]
-It's using Psychic! -But what is it up to?
[muttering continues]
[wind gusting]
-[stomping] -[both] Huh?
Let's check it out!
[Ash] Wait. Was that hill there before?
[Goh] I thought there was only sea.
[gibbering]
Pika, pika!
[gibbering]
[chittering]
Grookey, roo?
[Grookey gasps]
Slowking.
[quivering]
-Ah! -Grookey!
[tense music]
Are you okay?
-Pikachu! -Huh?
[Goh] It looks even more intimidating up close!
-Slowking. -Huh?
-Pika? -It wants us to follow?
[Pokémon chittering]
[Goh] Is this… where they all live?
Slowking. Slowking. Slowking, slowing, slowking.
[both scream]
-Slowking. Slowking. -Is that for us?
Slowking, slowking, slowking.
-Slowking. Slowking. Slowking. -Hey, thank you.
[Slowking] Slowking, slow!
Huh? Hey, Goh?
[chimes]
[Rotom Phone] Seeds from a Galarica tree.
A favorite of Galarian Slowpoke.
-Slowking. Slowking. Slowking. -Huh?
Oh! [crunching]
[gulps]
[giggles]
[chuckles] So you can eat them?
[Pokémon chitter]
[all munch]
[crunching]
[all screaming]
[both] But they're…
great!
