The First Face-off/Showdown.
Part
1.
Written
by Sara.
My name is Sara Cicero, I’m one of the legendary Chosen Pokemon Trainers
and this is how it all began: Captain Klegghorn takes our manager Phil Pomfeather to the station for questions about me, my
fellow Trainers & the Mighty Ducks.
Phil: Listen Captain, I don’t know what I’m doing here. If it’s
about that parking ticket, I had a broken leg and…
Klegghorn: I don’t wanna hear your troubles, Phil, I wanna hear about Ducks
& Pokemon.
Phil: Hey, call their PR agents.
Klegghorn: 6 hockey playing Ducks & kids who train odd critters appear out
of nowhere and show whenever there’s trouble. Spill it, where are they from, another planet?
Phil: Not another planter, babe. A whole ‘nother universe…
Flashback, Phil tells our origin stories, there’s the Pokeworld.
Phil (VO): And in it, were 2 planets, one was run by humans with 4 digits
& amazing creatures called Pocket Monsters or Pokemon.
Zooms into the park of Viridian City where kids & their Pokemon are playing
& battling together.
Phil (VO): Which is what they named it after: The Pokemon World or Pokeworld. And the greatest of all Pokemon were the legendary Mewtwo & Deoxys.
Shows the statue of Mewtwo wearing the Cap and at his feet are Mew, Celebi &
Jirachi, next to it is the statue of Deoxys with Rayquza next to him.
Phil (VO): The greatest Pokemon Masters/most powerful Pokemon of all. They
saved the Pokeworld from evil aliens called the Saurian Overlords hundreds of years ago, but nobody knew if they or their
buddies really existed. And they still argue about it.
There’s me, Sara, I was having a Pokemon Battle with my best friend, Jeff
Bonehead.
Sara: Ekans, Poison Sting!
Jeff: Golduck, Slash attack!
My
Ekans & Jeff’s Golduck attacked. My little sister Eilony & her Pokemon Squirtle were watching.
Eilony: Mewtwo & Deoxys, they really ruled. Right Squirtle?
Squirtle: Squirtle.
Eilony: The Saurian Overlords conquered everything. The poor universe didn’t know what to do ‘cause they
had evil powers no Pokemon can fight against. But Deoxys created this awesome cap that can see through the invisible
shields. It wouldn't fit him so Mewtwo wore it, he saw through the brim on the front and the strap on the back made
it go from his brain to his eyes.
She gets off the bench and starts acting the battle out.
Eilony: So, Mewtwo, his little friends Mew, Celebi & Jirachi, Deoxys & his pal Rayquaza hunted down
the Saurians with the Cap, and kicked them into another dimension, and the crowd went wild!
Squirtle: Squirtle!
Squirtle came to her.
Jeff: Jeez Sara, you really kicked my butt with that Ekans.
Sara: Ya want a real hero, Eilony, check Jeff Bonehead. He’s the best student in seventh grade and
nobody beats him in a Poke-battle.
We walk to her & Squirtle.
Sara: Besides, I heard all the stories about Mewtwo’s Cap & all that stuff, they’re just legends.
Jeff: I hate to say it, but she’s right.
Eilony: But Sara, Jeff, it’s said Mewtwo & Deoxys will choose Pokemon Trainers to take their place.
Sara: Relax El, the Saurians go bye-bye a millennium ago.
Phil (VO): Meanwhile, the second planet had ducks, they called it Puckworld
in honor of their hero, the legendary hockey player, Drake DuCaine. He was the ultimate team captain.
Show the statue of Drake DuCaine, then comes to half people/half ducks playing hockey, everyone kids & adults.
Phil (VO): Like Mewtwo, he saved Puckworld from the Saurian overlords a millennia or 2 ago and no one knew if he
excited either. And they still argue about it to this day.
Goes to Wildwing, Canard & Nosedive playing hockey. Wildwing was goalie while Canard shot pucks at him.
Nosedive: Drake DuCaine, he totally ruled, Canard. The Saurian Overlord had conquered everything, it was game over
for the entire universe, man. ‘Cause they had like these evil magic powers.
He skated around his brother & his brother’s best friend.
Nosedive: But Drake DuCaine invented this crazy mask, a golden mask…
He stole the mask Wildwing was wearing.
Nosedive: That could see through their invisible shields. So he hunted down the Saurians with the Mask right? He kicked
their scaly butts clear into another dimension, and the crowd went “Wow, yeah!” Whoa!
He fell over.
Canard: Man Wildwing, I couldn’t get a single puck past you today.
Wildwing: You want a real hero, Nosedive, well check out Canard Thunderbeak, he’s the best student in school
and nobody beats him on the ice. Besides, I heard all the stories about Drake DuCaine’s mask, Dive, they’re just
legends.
Nosedive got back up.
Nosedive: Legends? Wake up & smell yourself, man, we’re talkin’ about the most totally awesome duck
who ever quacked. Flat out.
Wildwing: Relax, baby brother, the Saurian Empire vanished centuries ago.
All 3 ducks skated home.
Phil (VO): But for once, Wildwing & Sara were wrong. Because a few days later, the last surviving overlord
escaped the prison.
Lord Draguanus was watching the Pokeworld.
Siege: We’re in range of the Pokeworld, Lord Draguanus.
Draguanus: Prepare to de-cloak. Now!
His ship, the Raptor & a lot of armada robots appeared.
Draguanus: (Chuckling evilly) After untold centuries, I, Draguanus, the last of the Saurian Overlords, have escaped
the dimensional prison, in which my ancestors were imprisoned.
He turned on his big screen and saw people & Pokemon.
Draguanus: And now the ones who follow in Mewtwo’s footprints shall pay for what he did to them.
Siege: Heh-heh. You ever met Pokemon, Chameleon?
The Chameleon morphed into Hamlet.
Chameleon: I, Siege? You ask if I ever met upon Pokemon?
Then morphed into Groucho Marx.
Chameleon: Well, now that you mention it, no.
Siege: I heard most of ‘em can be vicious.
Wraith appeared out of smoke.
Wraith: This is a mistake, Lord Draguanus. If we do not use the dark powers of our ancestors, I predict a dismal outcome.
Draguanus: This conversation is closed, Wraith! Technology freed us from the dimensional prison with my new gateway
generator, and technology will crush the Pokeworld flat!
They flew over the place.
Kid: Ratacate, Hi Jump…
(Shooting)
Both kids: Aah!
Draguanus started blasting everything, and destroyed the statue of Mewtwo then the statue of Deoxys.
People: (Screaming)
Phil (VO): The Pokeworld people didn’t know what hit them, Draguanus was just plain bad.
Comes to reality, Klegghorn just orders a pizza.
Klegghorn: So the kids who train Pocket Monsters get attacked by a dinosaur named Draguanus, right?
Phil: Bingo, you got it, babe.
Klegghorn: Well, then what happened?
Phil: What else? He took over the planet.
Flashback, Jeff was hiding behind a bush from the Hunter Drones.
Jeff: (Panting) Huh?
He peeked out and saw a Treecko about to be blasted by a Drone!
Treecko: Treecko!
Jeff: Hang on, little guy!
He jumped in and bravely saved Treecko, and ran off again carrying him in his arms.
Jeff: (Panting) Hang on, Treecko, I won’t let anything happen to you.
Treecko: Tree?
He ran into a cave in Mt. Moon and lost the Drones.
Jeff: (Sighs of relief)
Treecko: Treecko. Treecko, Treecko, Tree.
Jeff: Are you saying I was really brave saving you like that?
Treecko: Tree.
Jeff: No prob. Huh?
He saw a strange light up ahead, they went to it, there they found…
Jeff: (Puts Treecko down) Mew? Celebi? Jirachi?
Mew: Mew.
She gives Jeff a cap.
Jeff: Is this Mewtwo’s Cap? Huh?
Just then, a ball of light floated into Jeff’s hands, and turned into an orange
Poke ball.
Jeff: An orange Poke ball with the symbol of courage on it. Gah!
It opened, a beam shot out and created a collar on Treecko’s neck.
Jeff: What the heck’s goin’ on?
The Poke ball shot out a hologram of Mewtwo.
Mewtwo: I am Mewtwo.
Jeff: Hi, I’m Jeff Bonehead.
Mewtwo: I know, my friends & I have been watching you, and we agreed
you are not like any other, you are pure at heart, which makes you one of the Chosen Pokemon Trainers.
Jeff: Chosen by you?
Mewtwo: And Deoxys.
Celebi: Bi-Bi-Bi, Celebi, Celebi, Bi-Bi. Celebi.
Mewtwo: Yes, he had the courage to rescue Treecko from Hunter
Drones. The object you hold in your hand is called a Poke com.
Jeff: So that’s what this thing is.
Mewtwo: Yes. That Treecko is your Pokemon Buddy, only the
Leaf Stone will Evolve him to Grovyle, and when your Crest of Courage glows, he will become Sceptile. The rare & mystical
Youth Stone will turn him back to Treecko.
Jeff: Wow.
Mewtwo: Now Jeff, you must gather your friends; Sara Cicero,
her sister Eilony & Josh Morrison. I must go.
Jeff: Wait, where ya going?
Mewtwo: Come Mew, Celebi & Jirachi. And remember, Jeff,
only those who proove themselves pure of heart will be the Chosen Trainers. Now farewell.
Mew: Mew!
Mewtwo & his Buddies disappeared, Treecko went
to Jeff.
Jeff: Treecko.
Treecko: Treecko, Treecko, Treecko-Tree, Treecko.
Jeff: (Picks up Treecko) Are you sayin’ you & I should go get Sara, Eilony & this
Josh Morrison guy?
Treecko: (Nods)
Jeff: O.K.
A week later, Eilony & I were in line of the work camps
with a Charmander & her Squirtle.
Sara: El, what are we gonna do?
Charmander: Char.
Eilony: I don’t know, sis. We hear about the Chosen Trainers, but where are they?
Squirtle: Squirtle.
Sara: I don’t know, maybe they’re just a myth, like Mewtwo.
We stopped for a moment and looked at our gold & red
Poke coms not knowing what they are.
Sara: And I still don’t know what these doohickeys are, and why
they made collars around Charmander & Squirtle’s necks.
Just then, something grabbed my shoulder and into an abandoned alleyway, there me
& Eilony found…
Sara: Ack! Jeff! Where’ve ya been?
Jeff: I’m one of the Chosen Pokemon Trainers.
Sara: The Chosen Trainers? They really exist?
Jeff: Yep, and you are 2 of ‘em.
Eilony: We’re the Chosen Trainers and didn’t even know.
Jeff: There’s also a kid named Josh Morrison.
Sara: Never heard of him.
Jeff: Me nether. Those doohickeys are Poke coms, Charmander & Squirtle’s collars hold the tags which
are communicators. Anyway, I found it, Sara, in an ancient tomb in Mt. Moon.
He showed us the Cap.
Jeff: The Cap, Mewtwo’s Cap. And with it, we’re gonna take down Draguanus.
Eilony: Wow Jeff, I’m in!
Jeff: Well, I don’t know, Eilony, fighting Draguanus will be dangerous for a third grader and…
Sara: Hey man, in case you forgot, she’s a Chosen Trainer too.
Jeff: O.K., but you’re responsible for her safety. So ya in.
Sara: Yeah.
Treecko was talking to Charmander & Squirtle about it too.
Treecko: Treecko, Treecko, Tree?
Charmander: Charmander, Char. Charmander?
Squirtle: Squirtle! Squirtle-Squirtle-Squirtle!
Treecko: Treecko!
We went off.
Phil (VO): Jeff had 2 Chosen Trainers down and just one more to go.
Shows a kid & his Pokemon Buddy Bulbasaur fighting off Drones.
Phil (VO): His name; Josh Morrison, one of the biggest punks on
the Pokeworld. But since he became a Chosen Trainer & Draguanus invaded, he turned over a new leaf.
Josh: Bulbasaur, Vine Whip!
Bulbasaur: Bulbasaur!
He stretched 2 vines out the sides of his bulb and whipped the drones to pieces.
Josh: Mechanical morons.
The team was together in good-looking cloths.
Phil (VO): Jeff had his team; 2 commandos & 1 little sister.
Eilony: Good wardrobe, Jeff-man.
Sara: Jeff, where we goin’?
Jeff: To Draguanus’ command center.
Josh: But no one’s ever seen it.
Jeff: (Puts on Cap) I have, prepare yourselves.
Sara: Man Jeff, you’re pretty brave.
Jeff: Well yeah, I um… (clears throat) The place is dead ahead.
He used the Cap to see
Draguanus’ headquarters.
Jeff: Let’s move.
Treecko: Treecko.
We followed Jeff while our Pokemon followed Treecko. We got in through an air vent.
Jeff: Come on, let’s get moving.
We got to the end, but we saw Draguanus’ goons!
Sara: (Gasps)
Jeff: Shh!
Siege: Huh? You hear somethin’?
Wraith: No.
They left and we sneaked in.
Jeff: Let’s go.
We went to the place with a statue of Draguanus.
Josh: Now what, Jeff?
Jeff: Someone has to draw Draguanus out.
Sara: Can’t we draw straws or rock-paper-scissors?
Jeff: That’s what I was thinkin’.
All: 1, 2, 3…
We did rock-paper-scissors, I did scissors, Eilony & Josh did rock and Jeff did
paper.
Sara: Ha! Scissors cut paper, sorry Jeff.
Josh: Hold on, rock smashes scissors.
Eilony: So everyone wins except Sara.
Sara: Aw nuts. How ‘bout 1 out of 3?
Josh: Face it, kid, you lost fair & square.
Jeff: Besides Sara, you’re one of the best & most loyal Trainer I know.
Josh: Yeah, good luck, Sara. We’ll be right behind ya.
Eilony: I love you, Sara.
Treecko: Treecko, Treecko, Tree.
Squirtle: Squirtle.
Bulbasaur: Bulbasaur.
Charmander: Charmander, Char.
Charmander & I went in.
Jeff: Now, we’ll give her a 20 second start and…
The doors close! The Saurians appear!
Siege: All right, let’s ground these twerps.
Wraith: That’s a perfect idea, Siege.
He threw a fireball at them, but they brought out Poke balls.
Jeff: Poliwhirl, go!
Josh: Let’s go, Hitmonchan!
Eilony: Butterfree, I choose you!
Meanwhile, Charmander & I were getting to the kazoo, we saw Hunter Drones.
Sara: All right, Charmander, it’s mettle butt kickin’ time!
Charmander: Char!
They started attacking us, but we fought back.
Sara: Charmander, Flame-thrower attack!
Charmander: Char!
He barbecued the drones and defeated most of them.
Sara: Whoa! Charmander, Head Butt!
Charmander butted his head against a drone, the doors opened to reveal Draguanus!
Draguanus: (Laughing evilly)
He used his cloaking devise to make himself invisible.
Sara: (Gasps) Draguanus.
Draguanus: How disappointing, I was hoping it would be that brat, Jeff & his slimy newt Treecko, they’ve
been causing me trouble for an entire week.
Sara: Uh guys, you’re supposed to be… ugh!
Charmander: Char!
Charmander & I were walking backwards, until Draguanus lifted me by my shirt front & Charmander by his
collar back.
Draguanus: Oh them. Your friends & sister aren’t coming, nothing can save you.
He became visible.
Draguanus: Now squirt & Pokemon, you’re mine. (laughs evilly)
Soon, Draguanus had me on a huge metal bull’s-eye and held Charmander in his right arm.
Phil (VO): See, Draguanus hated kids snooping around his tower, so he was in a mood for termination.
Draguanus: This ray is supposed to shoot out a laser that’ll destroy you, and make you cry out like a
little baby.
Sara: Let Charmander go, and I’m not little or a baby!
Draguanus: Oh, I have no interest in your little fire salamander.
Charmander bit Draguanus’ arm which isn’t covered by mettle.
Draguanus: OW! Grr…
Charmander leaped out and scurried away to the master computer.
Draguanus: No! Not in there!
He went in and used his Flame-thrower to shut it down.
Draguanus: You little fool, the place is going to blow in 9 minutes!
Sara: Oopsie-daisy.
Draguanus teleported to the Raptor, while Charmander freed me.
Sara: C’mon, we gotta get the others!
Meanwhile, the others were fighting against the goons.
Jeff: Poliwhirl, Double Slap!
Poliwhirl: Poliwhirl!
Poliwhirl was slapping Siege hard.
Eilony: Butterfree, Psybeam!
Butterfree shot beams from his antenna at Chameleon, Draguanus appears on Siege’s com.
Draguanus (over com): Siege, bring the others to the Raptor!
They teleported back to the Raptor just as Charmander & I come, before the Master Tower exploded, my Farfetch'd,
Josh’s Golbat & Jeff’s Scyther flew us out to chase the Raptor.
Jeff: There’s an open door! Let’s go!
Our flying Pokemon dropped us there and we returned them, Draguanus saw us on his big screen.
Chameleon: Oops, I forgot to close the door!
Siege: Numbskull!
Draguanus: Then open the gateway to dimensional limbo! Now!
They opened a portal to dimensional limbo and Draguanus turned off his screen.
Jeff: I gotta stop it!
Treecko: Treecko!
Sara: Are you nuts?!
Charmander: Char!
Jeff: It’s the only way. (takes off the Cap) Take it, Sara, take…
Jeff & Treecko got grabbed!
Jeff: Aah!
Treecko: Tree!
Sara: Jeff! Treecko!
I grabbed Jeff’s hand & Charmander had Treecko, Jeff & I held the Cap and they looked at us with
pleading eyes.
Jeff: Take it, you’re team leader now.
Treecko: Treecko, Treecko.
Sara: NO!!!
They let go and disappeared into dimensional limbo, Josh closed the door. I sunk to my knees holding the Cap
& Charmander next to me with his hand on my side.
Josh: He & Treecko sacrificed themselves… to save us.
Bulbasaur: Bulbasaur, Bulba.
Eilony: They were the bravest leaders I ever knew.
Squirtle: Squirtle.
I put the Cap in my backpack, then Hunter Drones appeared and took us away.
All: (Groaning & complaining)
They brought us to Draguanus in the cockpit.
Sara: Draguanus! You’re the one who sent Jeff & Treecko into that weird whirlwind!
Charmander: Char!
Draguanus (sarcastically): Oh, yes. I feel so awful. (pats back of hand) Bad Draguanus, bad.
Josh: Just where are we going now?
Bulbasaur: Bulba!
Draguanus: I’ll show you.
He sent the Raptor to Puckworld.
Siege: We’re in range of Puckworld, Lord Draguanus.
Draguanus: See? The descendants of Drake Ducaine shall pay for what he did to my ancestors.
Sara: I bet he did the same to them as Mewtwo did.
Siege: Correct.
Josh: Yeah, that’s real nice, can we go back to the Pokeworld now?
Wraith: Oh, you 3 are not going to leave so soon.
Chameleon (morphs into Ralph Crandan): Yeah, you guys are gonna stay for dinner.
Eilony: Oh, what’s for dinner?
Draguanus: Roast duck.
It flew over Puckworld and started blasting everything.
Sara: Hey, can I push somethin’?
Siege: Why not? What harm could she do?
The Drone let me go, I went to the controls.
Sara: Hey, what’s this green one do?
Chameleon: No!
I pressed it, it zapped Chameleon.
Sara: Ooh, what about the pretty purple one?
Draguanus: Enough! Put them in cell!
The Drone grabbed me, and took me & the others away.
Draguanus: I’ll deal with those meddling kids later.
Within 2 weeks (don’t worry, me & the others had food & drinks), Draguanus
conquered Puckworld and created his work force.
Wildwing: Dive, what are we gonna do?
Nosedive: I hear ya, bro. We keep hearing about the Resistance but where are they?
Wildwing: I don’t know, maybe they’re just a legend, like Drake Ducaine. It’s hopeless, we
don’t stand a chance.
Something pulled him into an alleyway.
Wildwing: (Grunts) Canard! Where’ve ya been?
Canard: I’m what’s last of the military in the Resistance.
Wildwing: The Resistance? They really exist?
Canard: I’m organizing a team of special forces to take down Draguanus.
Wildwing: How? No one's ever seen him.
Canard: I found it Wildwing, in an ancient tomb in the mountains they call Twin Beaks…
He showed them the Mask of Drake Ducaine.
Canard: The Mask. Drake Ducaine’s Mask.
Nosedive: Whoa. Didn’t I tell ya, man? Was Drake Ducaine the main duck or what?
Canard: Beat it, kid. Before you get us all into trouble.
Wildwing; No. If you want me, then my brother’s part of the deal.
Canard: Very well, but you’re responsible for the kid’s safety.
Nosedive: All right, bro. This maximum serious par-te-te-ty.
Phil VO: They do exactly like the kids, first up was Mallory McMallard, chief commando & weapon specialist.
Mallory: I hate machines.
Phil VO: Next was Duke L'Orange, the most notorious jewel thief on Puckworld. But ever since Draguanus hit
town, he put his skills to good use.
Duke: This food belongs to the people, not that tyrant, Draguanus.
Phil VO: Then there was Tanya Gertrude Vanderflock, an expert in science & technical stuff. She was
so good, she could set the timer on a VCR.
Tanya: Scratch one oversized toaster oven.
Phil VO: And last but not least was Grin, he was so strong, he could bend steel just looking at it.
Grin: Pain is an illusion, an illusion that really, really hurts.
Phil VO: Canard had his strike force; 5 commandos &
1 kid brother.
Everyone was in their battle gear, and an Aerowing jet.
Canard: The last of the military’s Aerowings, (puts on the Mask) now let’s pay Draguanus a little
visit.
They got to the Puckworld Master Tower, and landed, leaving Nosedive behind.
Nosedive: Yo! What about me?
Wildwing: Be a team player, little bro. Somebody’s gotta guard the ship.
Nosedive: I think I just got the short end of the hockey stick!
The hatch closed. The other went into the tower, just like my fellow Trainers &
I.
Canard: Grin, you’re on.
Grin: Mind… over metal.
Grin got the door open in a heartbeat, they saw the Master Computer.
Duke: Saw this on the cover of “Better Homes & Super Villains”.
Canard: Tanya & Mallory, you shut it down.
Mallory: Tanya, I gotta warn ya, machines & me don’t get along too well.
Wildwing: Canard, these guys have special skills, but what am I doin’ here?
Canard: You’re gonna draw Draguanus out, so we can jump him.
Wildwing: Why me?
Canard: ‘Cause you’re the best goalie I know. You’ll take on anything Draguanus can throw
at us.
Wildwing: Did I ever mention I’m half chicken?
Meanwhile, me, Eilony, Josh & our Poke-buddies are out of food.
Eilony: Aw jeez. We’re out of food & Draguanus is gonna send us to a desert asteroid. What are we
gonna do?
Josh: I’ll tell ya what we do: nothing! We’re doomed! Doomed! Doomed, I tell ya…!
Sara: Josh, shut up! I already thought of a way out. Ekans!
I released my Ekans.
Ekans: Ekans!
Sara: Ekans, Acid. Open a hole in the floor, we’ll use it to escape.
Ekans spat Acid out her mouth, but nothing happened.
Sara: What? Ekans, return. (returns Ekans to Poke ball)
Draguanus (over P.A.): Oops, I forgot to mention, that cell is Poke-proof!
Back in the Tower, Wildwing went into the kazoo.
Canard: We’ll give him a 30 second…
The doors close and the Saurians appeared!
Siege: Let’s pluck some ducks.
Wraith: I have a better idea Siege, let’s roast them.
He threw a fireball at them, but missed. In the hallway, Wildwing saw Hunter Drones
guarding the entrance!
Wildwing: All right, Wildwing. Let’s give the kiddies a thrill!
He defeated them, but got Draguanus does what he did to me.
Draguanus: How disappointing. I was hoping it’d be that pest Canard. He’s been causing me trouble
for weeks.
Wildwing: Uh guys, you’re supposed to be right… uhh!
Draguanus lifted him up.
Draguanus: Face it, your feathered friends aren’t coming. Nothing can save you.
He became visible.
Draguanus: Now duck, you’re mine. (laughs evilly)
Comes to reality, Klegghorn gets doughnuts out of his file cabinet.
Klegghorn: Let me see if I got this straight; Draguanus took over the duck planet, just like he did to the Pokemon
World, and when the Ducks tried to stop him, Wildwing got captured like Sara.
Phil: You’re bright, you got it babe. But you’re missin’ the sodalities.
Klegghorn: And you’re missin’ about a half dozen marbles!
Flashback, Draguanus had Wildwing prisoner, he was about to barbecue him in electrical
rays!
Draguanus: When you hit those rays, you’ll be incinerated. Heh-heh-heh, yuck-yuck. I’ve always had
a passion for crispy duck.
Wildwing: I don’t suppose I could interest you in a nice pasta salad instead, huh?
Draguanus: Mmm… no.
Meanwhile, we were still in the cell, Josh got an idea.
Josh: I know! Eilony, ya got a hairpin?
Eilony: Yeah. (give Josh a hairpin)
Sara: Josh, what do you need a hairpin for?
Josh: Just watch, I saw ‘em do this in a movie once.
He tried to pick the lock with Eilony’s hairpin, but got zapped.
Josh: YOW! Ugh…
Sara: Josh-dude, you O.K.?
Josh: I’ve… been… better. (scoffs) Stupid shock-lock.
Squirtle: Squirtle, squirt.
Josh: It’s not your fault.
He gives Eilony her hairpin.
Sara: (Snaps fingers) I know!
Both: What?
Pokemon: (Chatter)
Sara: Here’s a really easy way: HELP!!!
Meanwhile, Nosedive was fed up with sitting on the bench.
Nosedive: If I could just get this heap in the air. Whoo-hoo, all right, Nosedive to Tower, here goes nothin’!
He covered his eyes as he pressed a red button. But when he uncovered them, he found out he just turned on the
windshield wipers.
Nosedive: (Imitates buzzer) Wrong.
Back in the Tower, Mallory & Tanya went in the Master Computer and set the bombs up.
Tanya: Now throw the…
Sara: Help! Get me outta here!
Mallory: What was that?
Sara: Please! I’m too cool to dehydrate!
Tanya: It came from over there.
They followed my calls for help, and found us, I was holding onto the bars.
Sara: Come on, open the cell! Open it! Open it! Open it!
Mallory: Stand back!
Mallory blasted the door down, I went out and danced around.
Sara: Yahoo! I’m free! I’m free! (kisses floor, spits)
Eilony, Josh & our Pokemon walked out.
Eilony: Thanks for savin’ us, Draguanus was gonna send us to a desert asteroid.
Mallory: Don’t mention it.
Tanya: Yeah, it was nothin’.
Josh: Well, I’m Josh, this is Eilony and we were imprisoned by…
Mallory: Save the intros, we gotta set the bombs.
We went back to the bombs.
Tanya: Now throw the toggle switch!
Mallory looked at them.
Mallory: Uh, toggle switch. Affirmative.
She mistakenly pushed the button.
Tanya: Oh! No, I said throw the switch, not press the button!
They ran off with us behind them.
Mallory: Switch, button, what’s the dif?
Tanya: About 9 minutes of escape time!
It exploded. Just when Draguanus threw the switch to send Wildwing in the rays, he heard the explosion.
Draguanus: What the blazes?!
Meanwhile, the other ducks were fighting against Draguanus’ goons, Siege threw Grin, Canard was holding
onto Chameleon.
Canard: Stand still, you shape-shifting psycho. Ugh!
Chameleon slipped out of his wings and morphed into a baby.
Chameleon: I’m only three & a half years old. (morphs into a huge muscle dude) Kids
grow up so fast these days.
Wraith appeared in a cloud of smoke in front of Duke, he had a flame sword.
Wraith: Care to fight fire with fire?
He struck, and tore Duke’s shirt.
Duke: Grr! Huh?
Wraith & Chameleon were walking to him, Canard lye on the floor with Siege swinging his club-like tail.
Siege:
All right, duck, you're lunchmeat!
Just then, Grin grabbed his tail and threw him against Wraith & Chameleon, Draguanus
appeared on the communicator.
Draguanus: Siege, bring the others to the Raptor at once!
They teleported back to the Raptor.
Canard: C’mon, we gotta find Wildwing.
Wildwing was really close to the rays!
Wildwing: Man, my feathers are starting to sweat.
The others came and saw him, Duke used a grappling hook to save him, which he did.
Mallory, Tanya, my fellow Trainer & I came.
Mallory: Grab your socks, troops, in 30 seconds we’re all gonna be toast!
A wall exploded, we looked out it, the Aerowing was gone.
Canard: The Aerowing’s gone! That kid brother of yours, he…
Just then, Nosedive appeared flying the Aerowing.
Nosedive: Yeeha-ha! Nosedive to the rescue!
We all flew off in the Aerowing as the Master Tower blew up. The Ducks turned to
my fellow Trainers & I.
Mallory: Say, what’d you say your name was, kid?
Sara: I’m Sara Cicero, that’s my kid sister Eilony, and that’s Josh Morrison.
Charmander: Char.
Charmander leapt on my shoulder.
Mallory: Aw look, how cute.
Charmander: Char, char.
Sara: Adorable, ain’t he? His name’s Charmander, he’s a Pokemon, like Squirtle & Bulbasaur.
Squirtle: Squirtle.
Bulbasaur: Bulba.
Duke: Poke-what?
Sara: Pokemon, that's short for Pocket Monsters. They’re amazing creatures with elemental powers.
Tanya: I’ve heard about Pokemon, then that means you 3 are from the Pokeworld.
Josh: Yep. Hey, that reminds me, we didn’t know your names.
Canard: I’m Canard Thunderbeak, this is my best friend Wildwing Flashblade, his brother Nosedive is flying
the Aerowing, there’s Duke L‘Orange, Tanya Vanderflock, Mallory McMallard and Grin, uh… Grin, what’s
your last name?
Grin: I don’t have a last name.
Canard: Oh.
Draguanus saw us on his jumbo screen.
Siege: Those feathered freaks are after us, and they stole your prisoners!
Draguanus: Then we shall escape them, as we escaped that dimension prison.
He opened up a dimensional gateway.
Wildwing: What the heck is that?
Tanya: His ship seems to be generating some kind of dimensional gateway.
Wildwing: Then we’ll follow him. C’mon baby bro., punch it!
Nosedive sped the Aerowing up.
Siege: They’re still on our tails.
Draguanus: Then I’ll destabilize the gateway. Release the worm!
He released an Electro magnetic worm! It started attacking the Aerowing.
Wildwing: What is that thing?
Tanya: Well, if I didn’t know better, I’d say that was an Electro magnetic worm!
Duke: Hey, if that thing gets big enough, it could swallow the entire ship!
Wildwing: We’ll have to jettison somethin’!
Tanya: But like what? Everything’s bolted down!
Just then, Canard opened the door, he was gonna jump out!
Wildwing: Canard, what are you doing?
Canard: You heard Tanya, I’m gonna close that thing down!
Wildwing: Are you crazy?!
Canard: It’s the only way. (takes off the mask) Take it, Wildwing, take it. (gets grabbed by the worm) Aah!
Wildwing: Canard!
Canard was pulled in, Wildwing held onto him as Grin held onto Wildwing. Both
drakes held onto the Mask, Canard looked at his best friend with pleading eyes.
Canard: Take it, you’re team captain now.
And let go!
Wildwing: No!
Canard just disappeared into dimensional limbo just like Jeff & Treecko, Duke
closed the door and the worm escaped.
Worm: (Snarls)
Wildwing just sunk to his knees holding the Mask.
Duke: He sacrificed himself… to save us.
Grin: Truly an evolved soul.
Josh: Eh, he was a jerk anyway.
Mallory hit him in the back of his head.
Josh: Ow! I was just kidding.
Sara: Bad timing, doofus. (sighs) There goes another leader, just like my best buddy Jeff Bonehead.
Eilony: Yeah, Jeff was the bravest leader we ever knew and his Pokemon Buddy Treecko was just as.
Nosedive: Uh guys, those dino-creeps are getting away!
Tanya: They must’ve past through the other end of the gateway.
Wildwing put the Mask in his hip pouch.
Wildwing: Then that where we’re going! Punch it, Nosedive!
Nosedive: Hang on.
Nosedive sped up the Aerowing it went through the other end of the gateway. We went
to another planet called Earth.
Mallory: Ugh, where’s the Raptor?
We flew past a billboard.
Wildwing: More to the point, where are we?
Kari
(VO): They’ve both got good points, just where are they & the Raptor? Find
out next time on “The Mighty Ducks”/“Pokemon: the Chosen Trainers”.
