873-The Worst Luck Ever? Eureka vs Nyarth!
866-So You're Having A Bad Day!
Ash and friends are still on the way to Laverre City, and once more, the twerps are stopping to eat. Serena checks her fortune, which tells her bad news. It tells worse news for Bonnie, telling her that she’ll “be sorry [she]got up this morning,” and also to “avoid…gold”.
Avoid gold? Now what is nearby that’s made of gold??
Well, we have no time to think about that, because surprise attack!!!
Team Rocket sure is striking bright and early. And they’re failing to steal Chespin and Pancham bright and early, too. And also some apples.
Or berries…
Which they stole from some Pangoro.
Yep. Already a day of disaster.
Oh, and speaking of gold, I think the answer to that “gold” question was clear. But not all that glitters gold is good (coughHandofMidascough). And the nearby thing that glitters gold is one rotten, annoying cat. So, if you have an aversion to how he sounds, no matter the language (Japanese for me), be prepared to suffer it. And if you can’t, then the next seventeen minutes will make it…
After Meowth and Bonnie haul ass away from a Pangoro, they fall from a cliff and get tied together by a vine.
And Meowth isn’t sharp enough to slice it. Bonnie calls him “useless” for that fail display. I concur.
Meanwhile, Ash and Pancham are traveling with one another as group #2. Serena, Frogadier, and Chespin are Party #3, Hawlucha, Luxray, and Fletchinder are group #4, Clemont, Bunnelby, Braixen, and Pikachu are party #5, and Jessie, James, Inkay, Wobbuffet, and Pumpkaboo are troupe #6. Only hilarity can ensue.
Bonnie doesn’t trust Meowth for a second. She won’t even let him tell the story about how he learned to speak human language.
But I like that story!
Cue the search for one another. A search Clemont will be using science to help with.
Braixen preaches to my choir.
Clemont launches a balloon equipped with a heat sensor. Hopefully there aren’t any children in that ballon. Besides, you’re already on a show.
Anyway, an angry Pangoro attacks and forces a hasty retreat.
Meanwhile at party #3, Chespin apparently wants the Serena’s bodyguard honor all to himself. But that meddling Frogadier is hogging the glory, especially when he uses Frubbles to blind an angry Pangoro. They run for it.
Group #MeowthpleasestoptalkingohwaitthankgoodnesI’mwatchingitinEnglish—uh, I mean group #1 has begun bickering over a berry. A new rule of the wild has been written, stating that whoever gets the berry eats it, too. So Meowth scarfs down one he got, and Bonnie scarfs down one she got. Then Meowth pulls the “dead weight” gambit, which Dedenne Nuzzles to a stop.
Silly Bonnie. Vines conduct electricity. And that little shock convinces them to share their food.
Yeah, I’m hungry, too. Be right back.
And I want an answer to that when I return.
.
.
.
.
.
Okay, here I am. A+’s (or 100s) for everyone! Also, CN, what do I “gotta catch”? It wouldn’t happen to be “’em all”, would it?
Back with troupe #6, Inkay has not found Meowth.
Come on, it’s not hard. Look with your ears, not your eyes. As soon as your cochlea implodes, you’ve found him.
Oh, wait, English. Never mind; your cochlea will be fine. In which case, you really will have to search the hard way.
And Pumpkaboo couldn’t locate any twerps. Lazy Wobbuffet hasn’t even begun looking.
Group #2 has reached higher ground, per Ash’s suggestion.
And it looks like his search is the most successful one so far. Fletchinder has been located. Soon, all of group #4 meet with group #2. He’s getting things done! He then sends Fletchinder to search for the others.
Party #3 hears something in the bushes.
Wow, Ash has gotten it together. Still got more to locate though.
Group #1 quietly tiptoes around a sleeping Pangoro.
If I were watching this in Japanese, I’d want Meowth to obey that gesture forever.
But this is one familiar setup, right? Noise will be made. And courtesy of Meowth tripping over his giant feet, the loud landing awakens Pangoro.
By turning to its left instead of to the right, Bonnie and Meowth manage to escape. But a fall onto a bunch of Foongus gets Bonnie sprayed by Sleep Powder (or Spore; they look alike to me), so Meowth must now look after her. It’s up to Dedenne to get Chesto Berries.
But Meowth is the only currently awake one who knows what Chesto Berries look like, so it’s time for him to take Bonnie for a ride (get your mind outta the gutter!). Too bad he isn’t built well, as he keeps collapsing. He then draws a picture in the dirt to show Dedenne what Chesto Berries look like. In a minute, Dedenne returns with the only one in the forest. Meowth feeds it to Bonnie and wakes her up instantly. And for Meowth’s efforts, he gets no thanks for it. Dedenne receives gratitude, though.
Fletchinder locates party #5 and brings groups #2, #3, and #4 along. Look like that trouble’s over.
Group #1 falls into a river, where a convenient rock splits the vine. After the climb out, Meowth gets Bonnie wet.
At last, the two can go their separate ways! Meowth starts complaining about how instantly lonely he is.
Oh no…
Meowth, don’t! I may hate how you sound in the Land of the Rising Sun, but that’s no reason to—
Oh, okay. That Pangoro will see to you. Better run for it. He decides to tag along with Bonnie, promising to use the twerps as a distraction as he runs from Pangoro, should he run into one. Fletchinder finds them and brings them to the other joined groups. Now only troupe #6 needs to be found. Now where are they? Well, can’t worry about that now, because three Pangoro have caught up to the big group. Meowth reveals what they’re saying to Pancham.
Yep, their food has been stolen. In the wild, food is the root of all evil. To civilization, it’s money.
And just as Meowth is trying to get out of a possible beating, what should happen but…
“Prepare for trouble, it’s now or never!”
“And make it double, we’re all together!”
“To protect the world from devastation!”
“To unite all peoples within our nation!”
“To denounce the evils of truth and love!”
“To extends our reach to the stars above!”
“Jessie!”
“James!”
“Team Rocket blasts off at the speed of light!”
“Surrender now or prepare for a reunification fight!”
“Meowth, that’s right!”
And, in other news, The Amazing World of Gumball will be on next. Thanks, CN.
Alas, the motto is too charismatic for Meowth to resist. But the Pangoro aren’t having it. And so Team Rocket is blasting off again. The Pangoro gets their berries back and even shares them with the twerps. How nice. Civilization can learn from this. The twerps bid farewell to the Pangoro. Bonnie reflects on her day with Meowth, citing it to be fun.
Well, when he speaks in English, he is.
But the day of terrible luck is over now. Will tomorrow be better? Find out next time, as the journey is…
