*I DON'T OWN POKÉMON OR DC SUPERHERO GIRLS!*
It was another peaceful day in Metropolis, as Ash and his friends, minus Kara, were watching a romance movie.
Girl: But, Aiden, if you don't stand up for yourself, no one else will!
Babs: She is so right.
Bonnie: I agree!
Dedenne: DEDENNE!
Lillie: [tears in her eyes] It's beautiful!
Vulpix (Snowy): VUL!
Zee: [snuggles up close to Ash] Though our love story is for real, Ashykins!
Ash: [giggles] I know!
Pikachu: PIKA!
Serena: [snuggles close to Ash] Same could be said about me, Ashy!
Ash: [blushes] [chuckles] Yep! I love you girls!
Zee: And we love you too, Ashykins!
Serena: [kisses his cheek] Mwah!
Ash: [giggles]
Pikachu: PIKACHU!
Goh: I never really understood this this show until now! It's kinda intriguing!
Chloe: Not to mention romantic!
Chloe's Eevee: EEVEE!
Karen: Hey, did you guys start the movie without me?
Goh: Huh?
Babs: Karen, what are you doing all the way over there?
Zee: Yeah. We thought you were sitting right-
The "Karen" they thought was on the couch was actually just a teddy bear.
Zee: Oh.
Ash: Did you guys really think Karen was a stuffed toy?
Pikachu: PIKA?
Lillie: [blushes in embarrassment] Um...
Karen: You thought I was a teddy bear?
Diana: It's because you're both so... adorable.
Ash, Serena, Goh, Chloe, Clemont, Bonnie and Lillie sweat dropped at that while having blank looks!
Ash: Right!
Pikachu: [sweat drops] PIKACHU!
Gladion: I honestly can't believe you'd think Karen was a plush toy.
Umbreon: UMBREON!
Lillie: I think this movie's on DVR! We can always restart it!
Vulpix (Snowy): VULPIX!
Karen: Oh, okay, [reveals a device] let me just finish up with this. [searches through her tools] Where is my nano-oscillation scope?
Ash: A what?
Pikachu: PIKA?
Karen: If I can't find my nano-oscillation scope, I can't shut down my nano-oscillator, and if I can't shut down my nano-oscillator, my whole neogenic generator will burn out!
Ash: That's basically a major "uh oh"!
Pikachu: PIKA!
The oscillator started to whir uncontrollably!
[whirring]
Serena: Uh oh!
Clemont: [goes over to Karen's area and starts searching] Here, Karen! Let me help you!
Kara: [picking her teeth with an unknown object] I'm sure whatever nonsense you're looking for, it'll pop up.
[alarm beeping]
Unfortunately, Karen's oscillator had burned out.
Ash: Uh oh! Too late!
Pikachu: PIKACHU!
Karen: [sighs]
Ribombee: [comforting] BOMBOM!
That's when she seemed to have found her tool, and Kara was picking her teeth with it.
Karen: That's it. My nano-oscillation scope. Ew. In your mouth.
Bonnie: Yucky!
Serena: Double ew!
Lillie: How unsanitary!
Vulpix (Snowy): [disgusted] VUL!
Both Sylveon: [disgusted] VEON!
Ash: Gross, sis!
Pikachu: [disgusted] PIKA PI!
Kara: This? No, I just found it on your desk. [hands Karen the nano-oscillation scope] Hey, Karen, if you don't want people picking their teeth with your stuff, maybe don't make stuff that looks like toothpicks.
Karen: I guess that's a good point.
Kara: [wraps an arm around her] Don't beat yourself up. Okay? [notices Incineroar giving her a look] What?
Incineroar: [shaking its head slowly and saying that she's impossible] INCINEROAR!
Diana: Incineroar's right, Kara, you really should have more respect for Karen's belongings.
Ash: Yeah!
Lillie: Taking things without asking isn't right!
Gladion: When will you learn to stop and think?
Kara: We have an understanding about these things. Right, Karen?
Karen: Yeah. Yeah, Kara, we're good.
Ash: Next time, sis! Stop and think before doing!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKA PIKA!
Lucario: MRAH!
Kara: Yeah yeah! Whatever!
Suddenly...
[wind blows]
Ash: Hey! What's going on here?
Pikachu: PIKA?!
Lucario: MRAH?!
A strange yellow hexagonal portal began to open up!
Diana: Look alive, team!
Pidgeot: [determined] PIDGEOT!
And everyone got into a fighting position! Then, a strange, cloaked figure stepped out from the portal!
Diana: Stop! Identify yourself!
But the figure said nothing!
Goh: Not talking, eh? Then, we'll just have to take you down anyway! Cinderace, use Blaze Kick!
Cinderace: [Blaze Kick move] CINDER...ACE!
The strange figure suddenly launched a rope around Cinderace!
Cinderace: [shocked] RACE?! [struggles] CIN...DER...ACE!
Goh: Cinderace, no!
Ash: Lucario, show this intruder we mean business! Use Force Palm!
Lucario: [nods] MRAH. [Force Palm move] MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAH!
But the intruder dodged!
Ash: [gasps] It dodged it!
Pikachu: [shocked] PIKA!
Lucario: [shocked] MRAH!
Lillie: But how?!
Vulpix (Snowy): VUL?!
Sam: Alright, you! Who are you?!
Night Sting: Your world's at stake. There's no time.
Kara: [hovers] Oh, I'll tell you what there's no time for. Trespassing jerks that don't listen!
Incineroar: [cracks its knuckles] [telling Kara "Let's teach this intruder a lesson it'll never forget!"] INCIN INCINEROAR!
Kara: You got it! [flies toward the intruder]
The strange cloaked figure then tossed a golden rope with Kryptonite around Kara, sending her towards the ground!
Incineroar: [shocked] ROAR?! [growls at the figure] ROAR! [Darkest Lariat move] IN...CINEROAR!
Night Sting: [grunts] [dodges] [uses an electrical shocker on Incineroar]
Incineroar: [electrocuted] ROAR!
Kara: Incineroar, no!
Then, a strange vacuum device appeared on one of the intruder's gauntlets and sucked up Jessica's Lantern Ring!
Jessica: [gasps] Hey!
Bonnie: Oh no you don't! Dedenne, use Nuzzle!
Dedenne: [Nuzzle move] DENNE!
But then, the intruder launched a net at Dedenne!
Dedenne: [shocked] DENNE?! [zaps itself by accident] DEDENNE!
Bonnie: [worried] Dedenne!
Zee: [chanting a spell] Redurtni eb-
But the intruder shot a mouthpiece around her mouth, sealing it shut!
Ash: No, Zee!
Pikachu: [worried] PIKA PI!
Zee: [muffled yelling]
Zee's Sylveon: [shocked] VEON?!
Babs: [holding multiple Batarangs] I got this. I got this! [tosses them]
However, the intruder protected itself with a forcefield shield and the Batarang bounced back and pinned Babs to the wall!
Chloe: Okay! That's kinda freaky!
Babs: She's good!
Lillie: Snowy, use Powder Snow!
Gladion: Umbreon, use Dark Pulse!
Babs: Ace Jr., Snarl!
Vulpix (Snowy): [Powder Snow move] VUL...PIX!
Umbreon: [Dark Pulse move] UMBRE...ON!
Lycanroc (Ace Jr.): [Snarl move] RRRRRRRRRRRRROC!
The intruder dodged the attacks and shot nets at the three Pokémon!
Lillie: Snowy, no!
Gladion: Umbreon!
Babs: Not my Ace Jr.!
Diana: Stand down.
Pidgeot: [threatening] PIDGEOT!
The intruder then tossed strange balls on the ground and it created a rectangular forcefield around Diana and Pidgeot, trapping them.
Pidgeot: GEOT?!
Diana: [grunting] [tries punching the forcefield]
Sam: Let's teach her a lesson, girls!
Alex: Yeah!
Clover: Okay!
Sam: [goes to punch her] HA!
Night Sting: [grabs her fist and throws her to Alex and Clover]
Spy Girls: OOF!
Ash: Girls!
Pikachu: [worried] PIKACHU!
Goh: That does it! [takes out a PokéBall] Inteleon, use-
He was interrupted as the intruder tossed more balls onto the ground and trapped Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, Lillie, Gladion, Goh, Chloe, and their Pokémon in rectangular forcefields!
Chloe: Oh no!
Lillie: We're trapped!
Ash: Guys! Okay! No more Mister Nice Guy! Pikachu, use Electroweb!
Pikachu: [Electroweb move] PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA PIKA CHU-PIKA!
That managed to trap the intruder!
Ash: Now, use Iron Tail!
Pikachu: [Iron Tail move] CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...PIKA!
But then, the intruder managed to break free of the Electroweb! Then, the intruder grabbed Pikachu's tail!
Pikachu: PIKA?!
Then, the intruder spun Pikachu around by the tail!
Pikachu: [getting dizzy] PIKACHU!
Then, the intruder tossed Pikachu and it made impact with Babs right in the stomach!
Babs and Pikachu: OOF!/PIKA!
Ash: PIKACHU! [angry] That does it! Now I'm really mad! [flares Aura in his fists] I'll show you what happens when you mess with me and my friends [goes on the attack]!
Ash managed to hit the intruder across the face!
Ash: How d'ya like that?! [goes for another punch] Here comes another!
Night Sting: [blocks it and kicks him in the gut]
Ash: GUH! You'll pay for that! Lucario! Force Palm!
Lucario: [Force Palm move] MRAH!
Lucario's Force Palm was able to make contact!
Pikachu: [runs over to Ash] [asking if he's okay] PIKA PI?
Ash: [smiles] Don't worry, buddy! I'm okay!
Night Sting: So, you wanna battle, huh? Fine then! [tosses a PokéBall]
Beedrill: [appearing] SPEEDRILL!
Ash: A Beedrill?!
Pikachu: PIKA?!
Night Sting: [tosses another PokéBall]
Weavile: [appearing] WEAVILE!
Ash: And that's a Weavile!
Pikachu: PIKA!
Chloe: Hmmmm. [pulls out her Rotom Phone] Weavile?
Chloe's Rotom Phone: Weavile, the Sharp Claw Pokémon. A Dark and Ice type. They live in cold regions, forming groups of four or five that hunt prey with impressive coordination.
Chloe: That's interesting!
Then, she touched something on her gauntlet and there was a bright glow! It was a Key Stone!
Within a bright flash of light, Beedrill became Mega Beedrill!
Mega Beedrill: SPEEDRILL!
Ash: You wanna play that card?! [pulls out a pair of gloves and puts them on, one of them bearing a Key Stone] Then, we'll play that card too! Ready, Lucario? Unless, you're ready for it?
Lucario: [nods] [affirmative] MRAH!
Ash: Okay then! [touches the Key Stone] Lucario! Mega Evolve!
Then, within a flash of bright light, Lucario became Mega Lucario!
Mega Lucario: MRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
Kara: HE CAN USE MEGA EVOLUTION?!
Ash: [with a sly look] Did I forget to mention that?
Zee: [with a bunch of hearts around her] [muffled squealing]
Serena: [with a bunch of hearts around her] So amazing!
Babs: [eyes sparkle] WOWIE WOWIE WOWIE WOW!
Ash: Lucario, use Force Palm!
Mega Lucario: [Force Palm move] MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAH!
Night Sting: Shadow Claw!
Weavile: [Shadow Claw move] WEAVI!
Both attacks made contact!
Night Sting: [to Mega Beedrill] Beedrill, Twineedle!
Mega Beedrill: [Twineedle move] SPEE...DRILL!
Ash: Pikachu, use Iron Tail!
Pikachu: [Iron Tail move] CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU...PIKA!
Pikachu blocked the Twineedle attack just in time!
Ash: Good work, buddy!
Night Sting: Aerial Ace!
Mega Beedrill: [Aerial Ace move] SPEE...DRILL!
Pikachu and Mega Lucario: [pained] PIKA!/MRAH!
The two Pokémon hit the wall!
Ash: Pikachu! Lucario!
Night Sting: Do you give up?
Ash: No way!
Night Sting: Fine then! Beedrill, Poison Jab! Weavile, Night Slash!
Mega Beedrill: [Poison Jab move] SPEE...DRILL!
Weavile: [Night Slash move] WEA...VILE!
Ash: Pikachu, Thunderbolt! Lucario, Aura Sphere!
Mega Lucario: [Aura Sphere move] MRRRRRRRRRRRRRAH!
Pikachu: [Thunderbolt move] PIKA...CHUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!
Weavile: [pained] VILE!
Mega Beedrill: [pained] SPEE!
Night Sting: What?!
Goh: Alright, Ash!
Cinderace: [cheering] CINDERACE CINDER!
Grookey: [cheering] GROOKEY!
Serena: Nobody messes with my sweetie!
Ash: [as Lucario changes back] Had enough, intruder?!
Night Sting: [as Beedrill changes back] We're done here. [stuns him with an electrical device]
Ash: [electrocuted] WAH!
Pikachu: [horrified] PIKA PI!
Lucario: [horrified] MRAH MRAH!
Serena: Ash, no!
The intruder then launched ropes at Pikachu and Lucario, tying them up!
Pikachu: [shocked] PIKA?!
Lucario: [shocked] MRAH?!
Mewtwo: [floats down into the base] [telepathically] Stop right there!
Night Sting: Stand aside!
Mewtwo: [telepathic] If you wish to harm my friends, then you shall face me! [launches a Shadow Ball] HM!
The intruder dodged the Shadow Ball and tossed more strange balls on the ground, trapping Mewtwo in a rectangular forcefield!
Mewtwo: [telepathically] Huh?!
Ash: Mewtwo, no!
Pikachu: [worried] PIKA PIKA!
Mewtwo: [tried to break the forcefield] [grunting]
Night Sting: Don't bother. That forcefield is capable of holding anyone in there, including a Legendary Pokémon like yourself.
The intruder then started to approach Karen!
Serena: Oh no, Karen!
Gladion: Look out!
Karen: Uh, [takes out nano-oscillation scope and holds it up] stay back! This may not look dangerous-
Ribombee: [threatening] BOMBOM!
Beedrill: [threatening] SPEAR!
Magnemite: [threatening] MAGNEMITE!
Klink: [threatening] KLINK!
Anorith: [threatening] RITH!
Night Sting: You're not fooling anyone, Karen. Especially me.
The intruder lowered its hood and pressed a button that closed her visor, revealing it none other than to be a future version of Karen!
Karen: [gasps] You're… me?!
Ribombee: [shocked] RIBOM?!
Beedrill: [shocked] SPEE?!
Magnemite: [shocked] MAGNEMITE?!
Klink: [shocked] KLINK?!
Anorith: [shocked] RITH?!
Ash: [shocked] NO WAY!
Pikachu: [shocked] PIKA?!
Lucario: [shocked] MRAH?!
Goh: Futuristic Karen!
Cinderace: [awed] CINDERACE!
Chloe: My mind is officially blown!
Eevee: EEVEE!
Gladion: Cut to the chase! Why are you here?!
Babs: Whoa! You're a time traveler?! Guys, this is Future Karen!
Night Sting: Night Sting.
Ash: I'm guessing that's her future name!
Babs: Cool name! Makes sense, because you are pretty cool. [frees herself] I mean, you did beat me and my friends up. Which is not so cool.
Ash and Goh: Ya think?!
Babs: But, again, time travel! Super cool! [checks out her gauntlet] So did you invent your own time machine and if so, how?
Clemont: [eyes sparkle] We must know!
Night Sting: [grabs Babs] By not wasting time with pointless questions. [throws her to the other side of the base]
Babs: Night Sting? More like Night Stink.
Swoobat: BAT!
Lycanroc (Ace Jr.): ROC!
Noibat: NOI!
Gladion: You didn't answer my question! Why are you here?!
Night Sting: I came here to warn my past self about the world being in danger.
Ash: Wait a minute, if you're Karen from the future and you also have a Beedrill, then where's Ribombee?
Pikachu: PIKA?
Night Sting: [scoffs] Don't get me started on Ribombee. I released the weakling.
Ash: YOU WHAT?! Even after everything you went through since the Giganta incident, you released it?!
Pikachu: PIKA?!
Ribombee: RIBOMBOM?!
Night Sting: That's none of your business!
Karen: B-But Ribombee was the first Pokémon I ever caught!
Night Sting: Don't you know the rules, Karen? You can release Pokémon if you wish to! I released Ribombee for a reason besides it being weak!
Ribombee: [sad] BOMBOM?
Ash: You're lucky I'm stunned right now, because I want to pulverize you to a pulp!
Pikachu: [angry] PIKACHU!
Ash: [goes over to Zee] Here, Zee! Lemme help you! [takes the mouth piece off her mouth]
Zee: [sighs] Thanks, Ashykins!
She then hugs him and rests her head on his shoulder.
Zee: You're the best boyfriend ever!
Ash: [blushes] I try!
Karen: Um, did you say something about the world being at stake?
Night Sting then pressed a button on her gauntlet, showing a hologram of a desolate future.
Ash: Whoa!
Pikachu: PIKA!
Lucario: MRAH!
Serena: Oh my!
Delphox: PHOX!
Pancham: PANCHAM!
Serena's Sylveon: VEON!
Goh: Wha-What is this?!
Cinderace: CINDER?!
Grookey: GROOKEY!
Chloe: [scared] What happened to the world?!
Eevee: [scared] EEVEE!
Night Sting: This is my present. Your future. Unless you change it.
Karen: Me? But how?
Night Sting: Even the smallest events now can have tremendous effects on the future.
Karen: [gasps] The butterfly effect.
Clemont: [snaps his fingers] Of course! If anything happens now, it could alter the future!
Night Sting: Exactly!
Kara: So, we find a butterfly and smash it? Oh. Seems kinda mean, but all right.
Clover: Um... I don't think that's the only way to stop this!
Lillie: I agree!
Vulpix (Snowy): VUL!
Night Sting: [to Karen] We don't have much time. [shows Karen her crystal] My chronocrystal will only keep me here for a few moments.
Karen: Tell me what I have to do.
Night Sting: Something of yours was taken. Its absence sets off a chain of events that destroys your world. If you do not recover it within the next 60 minutes, the effects will be… irreversible!
Serena, Bonnie, Lillie, and Chloe: [gasp]
Babs: Wait a sec! Did you just say something of Karen's destroys the world?!
Lillie: Destroy the world?!
Bonnie: Oh no!
Alex: That's bad!
Night Sting: Yes, and-
Babs: Like what? Who took it? [shakes Night Sting] Hurry, Night Sting! Tell us! You don't have much time!
Night Sting: One of them took your-
But she was unable to finish, as she disappeared!
Ash: We're too late! She's gone!
Pikachu: PIKACHU!
Serena: Now what do we do?!
Babs: Oops. [notices Gladion glaring at her angrily] What?
Gladion: You're impossible like Kara is!
Ash: Easy, Gladion! Calm down!
Pikachu: PIKA PIKA!
Gladion: [angry] Calm down? CALM DOWN?! We are nearly on the brink of mass chaos and destruction and you're gonna tell me to CALM DOWN?! [to Babs] If you hadn't been asking too many questions, she would've told us what was taken! Maybe you should take the time to shut your mouth and open your ears!
Lillie: [angry] Gladion, that's enough!
Gladion: Huh?
Lillie: [angry] Listen to yourself! You're sounding just like the way you did back when Solgaleo was a Cosmog! Or Nebby in this case! I'm ashamed of you, Gladion! Very ashamed!
Vulpix (Snowy): [angry] VULPIX!
Gladion knew Lillie was right and hung his head in shame!
Gladion: [ashamed] I'm sorry, Lillie.
Lillie: [smiles a bit] It's alright, Gladion! But yelling at each other won't get us anywhere! Be must find what was taken from Karen as soon as possible!
Clover: But how?
Alex: Yeah! It could be anything!
Ash: Then we'd better start searching!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Goh: And fast!
Cinderace: [agreeing] CINDERACE!
The doomsday clock had begun!
Babs: [untying Kara] For someone so smart, you'd think she would've led with the world-saving information.
Gladion: [groans] [facepalms]
Zee: Karen, I know I shouldn't be mad at you for something you technically haven't done yet, but I'm really mad at you.
Karen: I… I'm sorry, I think. Come on, guys, you heard Night Sting. This is end-of-the-world stuff here.
Ash: Yeah! Let's start searching!
Karen: So which one of you took something of mine?
Beedrill: [accusative] SPEEDRILL!
Clemont: Not me!
Bonnie: Not me neither!
Dedenne: DEDENNE!
Everyone then looked over at Kara!
Ash: [suspicious] Kara!
Serena: All eyes are on you! What did you take?!
Pancham: [accusative] PANCHAM PAN!
Pikachu: [accusative] PIKACHU!
Kara: Oh sure, I borrow one thing without asking, and suddenly I'm the causer of the apocalypse? [picks her teeth with Karen's nano-oscillation scope]
Karen: Kara.
Kara: What?
Goh: Whaddya call [points] this then?
Alex: You're picking your teeth with that weird tool thingy again!
Serena: And it's super gross!
Kara: Oh, right.
Mewtwo: [grabs it from her] Hmm!
Kara: Hey!
Mewtwo: [telepathically] Next time, be a more sanitary person [levitates over a box of toothpicks to her hands] and use these!
Kara: [rolls her eyes] Fine, Mewtwo.
Karen: Well, since it's come up, I have been keeping track of the stuff you've "borrowed" [reveals a long list] from me, Kara.
Ash: Whoa! That's a long list!
Pikachu: PIKACHU!
Goh: There's gotta be a million things in this list!
Cinderace: CINDERACE!
Lillie: What has Kara borrowed from you, Karen?
Karen: She's "borrowed" a lot of things, Lillie. Like my thermetrix drive.
Ash: A thermetrix drive?
Pikachu: PIKA?
Kara: I… I don't even know what that is.
Karen: [clears her throat] [points to Kara's bench press]
Turns out it was under one of the legs of Kara's bench press.
[device beeping]
Kara: Oh, a thermetrix drive. Right. My bench was wobbling. I didn't think you'd mind.
Karen: [growling]
Chloe: [sweat drops] You could've have either just fixed it or get a new one!
Eevee: EEVEE!
Mewtwo: [telepathic] [lifts the bench press] [grunts] [gives Karen her thermetrix drive and places a book under the short leg of the bench press] [lowers the bench press] There we go.
Ash: Well, at least that problem's solved!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Another device Kara "borrowed" seemed to resemble a video game controller.
Kara: It's not my fault! My old controller broke after I chucked it at a wall.
Incineroar: [snickers] INCINEROAR!
Karen: Really, Incineroar? Whose side are you on?
Incineroar: [saying "it's pretty funny she chucked it at a wall."] INCIN INCINEROAR.
Kara: [fist bumps Incineroar] Yeah!
She also seemed to have been using a generator to charge her phone.
Kara: Yeah, [takes her phone and unplugs it] but on the plus side, that's the first time I've had to charge my phone since April.
Karen: [growls]
Ash: [reads the list] Hold on! You even borrowed Magnemite?!
Pikachu: PIKA?
Chloe: What would you want to borrow Magnemite for?
Kara: It made a good back-scratcher and it was great way for me to power up my boom box while I shred!
Magnemite: [sinks behind Karen in embarrassment] MAGNEMITE!
Ash: Oh, the indignity! [to himself out loud] Huh. I wonder where I heard that before?
Pikachu: PIKA PI!
Soon, Karen had received all the stuff back from Kara that she had "borrowed".
Chloe: [to Kara] [raises an eyebrow] You even took her power suit?
Kara: I honestly thought it would fit me if it fits her!
Diana: If anything, Kara, it is my hope this exercise has shown you to ask permission before taking something.
Zee, Jessica, and Babs: [on the couch] [nod in agreement] Mmm-hmm.
Kara: Interesting. That's your hope? Because I was kind of hoping this exercise would prevent the apocalypse!
Gladion: She's right! We're wasting time!
Karen: But how do I know which one of these things Kara took ends the world?
Kara: Here's a better question. How are you so sure I'm the one who took whatever it is? I'm not the only one here who takes your stuff without asking!
Karen: Kara's right.
Serena: She is?
Babs: That's crazy!
Karen: Babs, you're eating my granola bar.
Babs: [munches and swallows] This? Really? Well, I just found it in this paper bag here. [reads the label] Oh, wait. Yikes. [giggles meekly]
Goh: Oh brother!
Karen: [scoffs]
Jessica: Not cool, Babs.
Karen: Uh, is that my banana?
Jessica: [nervously] Maybe?
Zee: [about to eat a sandwich but puts it away] [chuckles nervously] Okay, this whole thing was taking, like, forever and we were getting peckish.
Gladion: [sternly] Not helping.
Silvally: VALLY!
Umbreon: UMBREON!
Zee: But it was wrong, and we are so sorry. Also, it was 100% Babs' idea.
However, Karen was fed up with this!
Karen: [angry] Oh, this is just perfect! The world is gonna end, and I can't stop it because none of you treat me or any of my stuff with respect!
Ash: Karen, that's not true!
Lillie: Yeah! We have respect for you and your stuff!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKA PIKACHU!
Vulpix (Snowy): [agreeing] VULPIX!
Zee: If it helps, the doomsday object probably isn't in your lunch.
Karen: You're right, Zee. It doesn't help!
Babs: Uh, I think we broke Karen.
Goh: No kidding!
Cinderace: RACE!
Karen: [growling]
Chloe: Yeah! You really broke her!
Eevee: EEVEE!
["Who's That Pokémon?" time]
[as a silhouette shows a new Pokémon]
Ash, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, Lillie, Gladion, Goh, Zee, Diana, Jessica, Kara, Babs, Karen, Sam, Clover and Alex: Who's that Pokémon?
Ash, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, Lillie, Gladion, Goh, Zee, Diana, Jessica, Kara, Babs, Karen, Sam, Clover and Alex: It's Beedrill!
[as the silhouette reveals Beedrill]
Beedrill: SPEAR SPEAR!
[End]
Time was running out to stop the apocalypse!
Karen: Yeah, yeah. You always just assume. "Hey, Karen won't mind if we take her stuff. Or start the movie without her. Or eat her tuna sandwich. Because li'l ol' Karen is a pushover!" Now, 'cause of that assumption, we're all doomed!
Ash: Don't say that, Karen! You aren't a pushover and there's still time to stop the end of the world!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Lucario: [agreeing] MRAH MRAH!
Diana: [places a hand on Karen's shoulder] Ash is right, Karen. Though you could stand to be more assertive.
Ash: Diana, that isn't helping!
Pikachu: PIKACHU!
Diana: Ash, you must agree that she can learn to be more assertive!
Jessica: Totally.
Zee, Babs, and Kara: Mmm-hmm.
Karen: Oh, can I? Funny how you're all fine telling me how I could stand to be. Hey, I know! Since the world is gonna end, how about I take a crack at "fixing" your personalities?!
Zee: Hmm. Not sure that's the best use of time-
Karen: Okay, Zee, let's start with you! You have it all! You're beautiful, smart, popular. Plus, you're great at magic.
Zee: Oh, well thank you.
Zee's Sylveon: [flips a feeler] SYLVE!
Ash: [smiles] She's not wrong! You are a beautiful magician, Zee!
Pikachu: PIKA!
Zee: Thanks, Ashykins! [kisses his cheek]
Karen: So, here's a thought. Why not see if that book of yours has a spell that can whip up a sense of humility?!
Zee's Sylveon: VEON?!
Ash: Karen! You shouldn't say things like that!
Pikachu: [angry] PIKA!
Kara: Boom! [laughs] Not so fun, is it?
Zee's Sylveon: [angry] [slaps her with a feeler] VEE!
Ash: Not cool, Kara!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Zee's Sylveon: [turns her head away] SYLVEON!
Jessica: Karen! I understand you're upset, but in my opinion-
Karen: Wow! What do you know! Jessica Cruz has an opinion! I'd ask you to share it with the group, but, [chuckles] what's the point? You're gonna do it anyway!
Goh: Now, that's harsh!
Chloe: No kidding! I don't like this side of Karen!
Cinderace: [agreeing] CINDERACE!
Eevee: [agreeing] EEVEE!
Kara: Ha! Jess does have a lot of opinions.
Lampent: [glares at her] [telling her she's a hotheaded bonehead with an ego and anger problem] LAMP LAMP LAMPENT LAMP LAMPENT!
Kara: [angry] Who asked you?!
Incineroar: [angry] ROAR!
Machop: [angry] [saying "nobody talks to my trainer like that!"] MACH MACH MACHOP!
Lampent: [taunting] LAMP LAMP LAMP!
Jessica: Lampent! No!
Lampent: [apologetic] LAMP LAMP. [saying it was trying to defend her honor] LAMPENT LAMPENT LAMP.
Jessica: [pats it on the head] I appreciate that, Lampent! Thank you!
Lampent: LAMPENT!
Babs: Ooh! Do me! Do me! Do me!
Chloe: She's excited about being criticized?!
Eevee: EEVEE?!
Clover: That's a little weird!
Karen: Oh, Barbara! You're a living, breathing, run-on sentence with no punctuation! Why not come up for air and let someone else spout gibberish a bit?!
Lillie: Well, she does have a bubbly personality!
Vulpix (Snowy): [agreeing] VUL!
Gladion: And she does need to learn to open her ears and not her mouth!
Babs: Whoa! You got me good!
Swoobat: SWOOBAT!
Noibat: NOIBAT!
Kara: Yes, she did!
Lycanroc (Ace Jr.): [angry, telling Kara to shut up] LYCANROC!
Karen: And you, Kara!
Kara: Huh? Me? I think you got me already.
Karen: Oh, did I, Kara? Did I really? Did you actually learn anything?!
Once again, she was picking her teeth with the nano-oscillation scope.
Ash: Seriously, Kara?!
Serena: Again?!
Goh: Even after Mewtwo gave you a box of toothpicks!
Chloe: How unsanitary!
Pikachu: [sticks his tongue out] [disgusted] PIKACHU!
Eevee: [sticks her tongue out] [disgusted] EEVEE!
Bonnie: [sticks her tongue out] Eww!
Dedenne: [disgusted] DENNE!
Clemont: [groans] [facepalms] She's never going to learn!
Karen: See?!
Kara: Well, yeah, you're right. Probably not. [picks her teeth]
Incineroar: [facepalms] INCINEROAR!
Karen then marched up to Diana, who remained tall.
Diana: I will face head-on whatever comes.
Karen: And you, Diana. You say I should be more assertive. Well, I think you should be a little more thoughtful. I'm not some cutesy, little adorable teddy bear!
Ash: Karen, you've gotta calm down!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKA PI!
Karen: [glares at Ash] And you, Ash!
Ash: Me?! What did I do?! Why am I being dragged into this?!
Pikachu: PIKA?!
Karen: Oh gee, I don't know! Maybe it has something to do with you being a Pokémon Master!
Ash: What does that have to do with anything?!
Karen: You have it all! Especially a harem! Well, you know what I think? I think that you're a show-off!
Ash: [angry] I am not a show off! I don't go around bragging about it! I take being a Pokémon Master very seriously and it's taken me a long time to understand love!
Pikachu: [angrily agreeing] PIKACHU!
Karen: And yet even though you have multiple girlfriends and you're a Pokémon Master, you're still always being followed by those three troublemakers, Jessie, James and Meowth, and you're doing nothing about it! And I'm sick of that too! Has it ever occurred to you that maybe you should do something about?! Like you know... [slides her thumb across her throat]
Ash: [gasps] Karen, ARE YOU NUTS?! That isn't justice!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Karen: Well maybe you're just too much of a softie to even think of killing them! And even if you tried, you have those girlfriends of yours to hold you back! Just goes to show that you're show-off vibe is keeping you from having to kill even your enemies that always keep coming back!
Ash: What would you know about Team Rocket anyway! Besides, you've never complained before about me or my harem!
Karen: Well, I'm complaining now! And I'm sick and tired of it! And you're right, you don't brag! You go showing off with the many girls you have and not care about anything else! Not even your own friends! And showing off is you bragging internally!
Ash: [angry] I DO NOT! I can't believe this, Karen! I thought we were friends?!
Karen: [angry] Well, maybe I don't wanna be friends with a show off!
Ash: [angry] Well, if that's what you think, then I don't wanna be friends with you either!
Karen: [angry] And that goes double for me!
Ash: FINE BY ME! [leaves] Come on, Pikachu and Lucario! Let's go!
Pikachu: [follows Ash angrily] PIKA PI!
Lucario: [arms crossed] [follows Ash angrily] MRAH!
Zee: Darling, wait!
Sam: [puts a hand on her shoulder] It's best we give him some space, Zee. He needs it.
And Ash went to his side of the base and slammed the door shut!
[door slams]
Lillie: [angry] KAREN! How could you say that to Ash?!
Vulpix (Snowy): [angry] VULPIX!
Alex: Yeah! That was very mean!
Clemont: [angry] You should be ashamed of yourself!
Bonnie: [angry] I thought you were nice, Karen! But now I just see that you're a big meanie!
Dedenne: [angry] DEDENNE!
Gladion then marched up to Karen with an angry look.
Gladion: [angry] HOW DARE YOU! Ever since Night Sting came in here and got into your mind, you've been acting bizarre!
Karen: [angry] [sarcastically] Oh gee! You're one to talk, Gladion!
Gladion: Don't go dragging me into this too! I'm not gonna stand by and let you be harsh to my friends!
Karen: [angry] Well it's the truth! [to Serena] As for you, Serena-
Serena: [angry] No, Karen! I don't wanna hear it!
Karen: [angry] Oh, you are so going to-
Serena: [furiously yells] I SAID I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT!
Sam: Whoa, Serena! Calm down!
Serena: [angry] Calm down? CALM DOWN?!
The Kalos girl then marched up to Karen with an angry look!
Serena: [angry] How dare you treat Ash so cruelly after everything he's done for you!
Delphox: [angry] DELPHOX!
Pancham: [angry] PANCHAM PAN!
Serena's Sylveon: [angry] VEON!
Goh: Serena, hold on!
Serena: Huh?
Goh: You've known Ash for a long time. You should probably go and comfort him.
Serena: [nods] You're right, Goh. I should. [looks at Karen one last time and turns away from her] Hmph!
After she went to comfort Ash, Karen was confronted by an angry Mewtwo.
Mewtwo: [angry] [telepathic] Have you no shame!
Karen: Mewtwo, I-
Mewtwo: [angry] [telepathic] [eyes glowing blue] SILENCE!
Karen: [scared] AH!
Ribombee: [sad] [telling Karen "You're not the Trainer I know and love anymore."] RIBOMBOMBOM.
Karen: Ribombee, I-
But Ribombee just turned away sadly!
Karen: Ribombee, wait!
Mewtwo: [telepathic] [sighs] Karen, let me tell you something.
Karen: Huh?
Mewtwo: [telepathic] Back in the day, I once thought of slaying Team Rocket myself!
Karen: Y-Y-You did?!
Mewtwo: [telepathic] Yes! But I didn't! I thought that if I did that, then I would be no better than those villains!
Karen: I-I guess you're right.
Mewtwo: [telepathic] We all make mistakes, Karen! And that's how we learn from them!
Karen: You're... You're right.
Then, the teddy bear that was on the couch fell off, and behind it seemed to be a basket full of treats.
Ribombee: BOMBOM?
Karen: Wait. What's that? Caramel popcorn, all-day jack-smackers, root beer? These are all my favorite things.
Zee: We made you a swag bag for movie night and put it in your seat but-
Kara: Then we mistook you for a plushie. Sorry about that.
Goh: [mutters] If you ask me, you don't really deserve it now.
Karen: You guys. I don't know what to say other than you're the best friends I've ever had. I'm so sorry.
Kara: [places a hand on her shoulder] It's okay. We all gotta vent sometime.
Incineroar: [agreeing] ROAR! [chuckles] [says "take it from me."] INCINEROAR.
However, she then became saddened about what she said to Ash.
Karen: But now I feel awful about what I said to Ash! I bet he hates me now!
Clemont: I'm sure he doesn't hate you, Karen!
Karen: But I called him a show-off and I told him that we shouldn't be friends! He might not forgive me after what I told him!
Mewtwo: [telepathic] You're forgetting one thing, Karen.
Karen: What?
Mewtwo: [telepathic] The biggest mistake you can make is not to try.
Karen: You're right! I've got to try and apologize!
Ribombee: [lands on her shoulder] [saying she'll go with her] RIBOMBOM!
Karen: Thanks, Ribombee! Wait, does... does that mean we're partners again?
Ribombee: [affirmative] BOMBOM!
Karen: Aww, Ribombee! [nuzzles it] You're the best!
Ribombee: [happy] BOMBOM!
Ash was currently in his side of the base sulking, while Serena was comforting him!
Serena: There there, Ashy! It's okay!
Ash: [sighs] Thanks, Serena. I still can't believe Karen would say something like that to me!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Serena: I'm sure she didn't mean it, Ash! She was probably too angry to think about what she was saying!
Ash: I guess you're right.
Serena: And you're no show-off to me!
Ash: You think so?
Serena: I know so, Ashy!
Ash: [smiles] Thanks, Serena! You're the best!
Pikachu: PIKA!
Serena: [hugs him] You're welcome, sweetie! [kisses his cheek]
Ash: [blushes] [giggles]
Karen: Ash!
Ash: Huh?
Pikachu: PIKA?
Lucario: MRAH?
Growlithe: [growls angrily] GROWL... [barks defensively] GROWL GROWL! GROWLITHE!
Ash: It's okay, Growlithe! Stand down!
Pikachu: PIKA PI!
Growlithe: GROWL?
Ash: She just wants to talk!
Growlithe: [nods] GROWL!
Ash: What is it, Karen?
Karen: I wanted to say I'm sorry for being so rude to you and upsetting you! I let Night Sting and the whole end-of-the-world thing get the best of me! Can you forgive me?
Ash: That depends! Do you understand that I take being a Pokémon Master and having a harem very seriously?
Karen: I sure do!
Ash: [smiles] Then I forgive you!
Pikachu: [forgiving] PIKACHU!
Lucario: [forgiving] MRAH MRAH!
Karen: Thanks, Ash!
Ash: No problem! I hope nothing came between you and Ribombee!
Karen: Nope! We're good! [winks at Ribombee]
Ribombee: BOMBOM!
Karen: Though now that I think about it, I think I figured out the other reason why Night Sting released Ribombee!
Ash: What is it?
Pikachu: PIKA?
Karen: Maybe it was because of the lack of friendship she gave Ribombee because of the aggression she had!
Ribombee: RIBOMBOM!
Ash: That's probably it!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Karen: Definitely! Come on! The others might be worried about you!
Ash: Right! [to Serena] You comin', Serena?
Serena: [hugs his arm] [smiles] Of course, sweet cake!
Soon, they went to see the others!
Ash: Hey, everyone!
Pikachu: PIKA!
Lucario: MRAH!
Zee: Hi, Ashykins! Glad you're feeling better!
Ash: [smiles] Don't worry, Zee! I'm good!
Zee: I'm glad! [boops his nose] Boop!
Ash: [chuckles]
Karen: I guess I've been keeping a lot of stuff inside. And with the end of the world and all, I… I lost my cool.
Jessica: We understand. As terrifying as that was, you made some good points.
[murmuring in agreement]
Zee: Ah ah ah! Except for Ash!
Goh: Huh?
Zee: [hugs Ash] My Ashykins is perfect just the way he is!
Ash: Aww, Zee!
Zee: [brushes her hand across his cheek] And he's irresistible! [kisses his other cheek, leaving a lipstick mark] Mwah!
Sam: I second that! [boops Ash's nose]
Ash: [blushes] [giggles]
Kara: Yeah, we… Well, I have been taking advantage of you a lot lately. I'm sorry for that.
Incineroar: [chuckles proudly] INCINEROAR. [places a paw on Kara's shoulder] [telling her she'll always be his favorite Trainer, no matter what] INCINE INCINEROAR, ROAR INCIN.
Kara: Thanks, buddy!
Incineroar: [smirks] CINE!
Kara: Aw, [holds out her arms] come here, you!
And they shared a hug!
Kara: [to Karen] Point is, I'm real sorry, kid.
Diana: We all are. And we promise to be more considerate. On one condition.
Haunter: [asking "does it involve throwing wet toilet paper around the base?"] HAUNTER HAUNT HAUNTER?
Machop: [wants to know too] MACH MACHOP!
Kara: Nope! Although it would be pretty funny!
Zee: [places a hand on Karen's shoulder] The next time something bugs you, say something. Don't hold it in.
Zee's Sylveon: [agreeing] VEON!
Babs: Because we don't wanna see Rage-Monster Karen again. Like, ever.
Swoobat: [agreeing] SWOOBAT!
Noibat: [agreeing] NOIBAT!
Bonnie: Rage-Monster Karen scary!
Dedenne: DEDENNE!
Chloe: Yeah! I like it better when you're happy!
Eevee: EEVEE!
Karen: Deal. If there is a next time. The world is about to end because I still haven't found what I'm missing.
Ash: Uh oh!
Goh and Alex: WE'RE DOOMED!
Mewtwo: [telepathic] No we're not.
Clover: Whatcha talkin' about, Mewtwo?
Mewtwo: [telepathic] I used my powers to sense any disasters happening around the world, and I sensed no major threats that are capable of destroying the world.
Ash: Then, that means...
Sam: We've been tricked!
Chloe: Tricked?!
Ash: Hold on, if the world isn't going to end, then what's going on?
Pikachu: PIKA?
Sam: And we still haven't found that thing Karen is missing!
[portal opens]
Night Sting: Haven't you though?
Night Sting's Beedrill: SPEAR!
Karen: Night Sting?
Night Sting: I'd say you found exactly what I intended you to find. [takes off her hood and visor] Your backbone.
Everyone but Karen: What?!
Karen: Uh, what?
Night Sting: In order to become this take-charge, no-nonsense hero that stands before you today, you must learn to become aggressive. I learned that lesson late in life. But if I'd learned it sooner, I could have become an even more take-charge and even less nonsense hero.
Karen: So, this was all a game?! But the end of the world? You said-
Night Sting: I said it'd be the end of YOUR world. Which is true. What's the point of living if you're going to spend your whole life being a pushover?
Kara: And the apocalypse? Those images! You said they were from the future!
Lillie: Yeah!
Night Sting: They are from the future! Those were clips from "Just Before Dusk 17: A Doomsday Affair"! The franchise goes in some strange directions!
Zee: Hey, hey, hey! No spoilers!
Karen: What about the whole 60-minute ticking clock thing?!
Night Sting: Okay, that was for the drama. [smirks] You can't argue with the results.
Night Sting's Beedrill: [agreeing] SPEAR SPEAR!
Ash: [growls angrily] I can't believe she would trick us like that!
Pikachu: [cheeks sparking] [angry] PIKACHU!
Clover: [angry face] That was a total jerk move, you jerk!
Lillie: [notices Gladion outraged and breathing heavily] Gladion? Are you alright?
Vulpix (Snowy): [concerned] VUL?
Gladion then marched up to Night Sting. HE WAS OUTRAGED!
Gladion: You mean to tell me we went on a wild goose chase for nothing?! All because it was some kind of trick to get Karen to become aggressive?! Give me one good reason why I shouldn't have my Lycanroc tear you apart limb from limb?!
Gladion's Lycanroc: [snarls threateningly] RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
Night Sting: Temper temper, Gladion!
Gladion: [furious] Are you trying to enrage me more than I am right now?!
Night Sting: Maybe I am and maybe I'm not!
Gladion: [growls] [furious] THAT DOES IT! LYCANROC, TEAR HER TO SHREDS!
Gladion's Lycanroc: [attacking] LYCANROC!
Night Sting: [to her Beedrill] Beedrill, use Poison Jab.
Night Sting's Beedrill: [Poison Jab move] SPEAR!
Gladion's Lycanroc: [pained] ROC!
Gladion: Oh yeah?! Umbreon! Silvally! Attack!
Umbreon: [attacking] UMBREON!
Silvally: [attacking] VALLY!
Night Sting: Sludge Bomb!
Night Sting's Beedrill: [Sludge Bomb move] SPEEDRILL!
Umbreon: [pained] BREON!
Silvally: [pained] VAL!
All three Pokémon were poisoned!
Ash: They're poisoned!
Pikachu: [worried] PIKA PI!
Ash: I got this one! Lucario, use Aura Sphere!
Lucario: [Aura Sphere move] MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAH!
Ash: How d'ya like that, jerk?!
Night Sting: Use Aerial Ace!
Night Sting's Beedrill: [Aerial Ace move] SPEE...DRILL!
Ash: Meet it head on! Use Force Palm!
Lucario: [Force Palm move] MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAH!
The attacks met head on! But Force Palm prevailed!
Night Sting's Beedrill: [pained] SPEE!
Ash: Now, use Reversal!
Lucario: [Reversal move] MRAH!
Night Sting's Beedrill: [pained] SPEE!
Night Sting: Okay! No more games! Beedrill! [touches the Key Stone] Time to Mega Evolve!
Then, in a sudden flash of bright light, Beedrill once again became Mega Beedrill!
Mega Beedrill: SPEAR SPEAR!
Ash: Then, we'll do the same! You wanna do it, Lucario?
Lucario: [nods affirmative] MRAH MRAH!
Ash: Okay! [touches the Key Stone in his glove] Time to Mega Evolve!
Then, in a sudden flash of bright light, Lucario once again became Mega Lucario!
Mega Lucario: MRAH!
Night Sting: This changes nothing! Beedrill, use Sludge Bomb!
Mega Beedrill: [Sludge Bomb move] SPEEDRILL!
The Sludge Bomb made contact on Lucario, but it didn't do a thing!
Night Sting: What?! Impossible!
Ash: You're forgetting one thing, genius! Poison type moves have no effect against Steel types!
Night Sting: Guh! How can I be so stupid?!
Ash: Lucario, use Bone Rush!
Mega Lucario: [Bone Rush move] MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAH!
Mega Beedrill: [pained] SPEEDRILL!
Ash: That's showing her, Lucario! Do it again! Much harder!
Mega Lucario: [Bone Rush move] MRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAH!
Mega Beedrill: [pained] SPEEDRILL!
Night Sting's Beedrill changed back to normal and was defeated!
Night Sting: NO!
Ash: Alright! Great work, Lucario!
Pikachu: [happy] PIKA PIKACHU!
Lucario: [changes back to normal] MRAH MRAH!
Zee and Serema: [with a bunch of hearts around them] So amazing!
Ash: [approaches Night Sting] It's over, Night Sting! You've lost!
Pikachu: PIKACHU!
Night Sting: [growls]
Ash: That's basically payback for you releasing Ribombee in your time!
Night Sting: Why is everyone getting worked up over that?! Ribombee was a weakling!
Ash: Well, maybe the reason you released it is because you're so aggressive that you lack the friendship you shared with your first Pokémon!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Ash: In fact, you and your Beedrill don't deserve these [takes Key Stone and the Beedrillite Mega Stone]!
Night Sting: WHAT?! NO!
Ash: If anyone's the weakling, it's you, Night Stink!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Night Sting: [growls] Why you little... [tries to punch him]
Mewtwo: [telepathic] [uses Psychic] HM!
Night Sting: [stopped in her tracks] Huh?!
Karen: [angrily groans]
Babs: Remember how we never wanted to see the Rage-Monster again? [glares at Night Sting] Maybe one more time.
Ash: She's all yours, Karen! Let your future self feel your rage for everything she put us through!
Pikachu: PIKA PIKA!
Karen: [clears her throat] [angry] Listen here, Night Sting!
Night Sting: [chuckles] Oh, no, really, there's no need to thank me!
Karen: [angry] Thank you?! You come in here, beat up my friends, lie to me, and expect a thank you?!
Lillie: [angry] You're one of the cruelest people I've met, Night Sting!
Vulpix (Snowy): [angry] VULPIX!
Mewtwo: [angry] [telepathic] I agree! You're lucky I'm not slaying you where you stand!
Karen: I know I'm still figuring out the kind of person I'm gonna be some day, but one thing I know for sure. [steps on top of a crate] I'm definitely never, EVER gonna grow up to be a jerk like you!
Ribombee: [agreeing] BOMBOM!
Karen's Beedrill: [agreeing] SPEAR!
Night Sting: [chuckles] Please, Karen, you think-
Then, suddenly, Night Sting started to fade from existence!
Night Sting: Wait, what's happening?
Karen: Well, if I don't grow up to be you…
Night Sting: No. You mean- You mean I cease to exist?!
Clemont: That sounds about right!
Bunnelby: BUNNELBY!
Chespin: CHESPIN!
Karen: What was that you said about pointless questions?
Night Sting: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! [fades from existence]
Night Sting's Beedrill: [saying "I hate you!"] SPEAR SPEAR! [fades from existence]
Karen's Beedrill: [waves goodbye tauntingly] SPEAR SPEAR!
Soon, Night Sting and her Beedrill no longer existed.
Ash: So long, Night Sting.
Pikachu: PIKACHU!
Mewtwo: [telepathic] And good riddance!
Zee: Well, now that Night Sting is gone, what's gonna happen to her Key Stone and Mega Stone?
Ash: Easy! [hands Karen the Key Stone and Mega Stone] Here, Karen! They're yours now!
Karen: Really?
Ash: Of course! You deserve it! Plus, you have Beedrill, and the Mega Stone is a Beedrillite! That means you'll be able to use Mega Evolution with Beedrill!
Pikachu: [agreeing] PIKACHU!
Karen: Wow! Awesome!
Beedrill: SPEAR SPEAR!
Karen: [hugs Ash] Thanks, Ash!
Ash: [chuckles] [hugs her back] No problem, Karen!
Karen: [turns to Beedrill] Isn't this awesome, Beedrill?! Now we'll be able to do Mega Evolution!
Beedrill: [happy] SPEAR SPEAR!
Karen: [to Mewtwo] Mewtwo, thank you for helping me realize my mistake.
Mewtwo: [telepathic] It was my pleasure, Karen!
Karen: [smiles] [hugs Mewtwo] Hmm!
Mewtwo: [smirks] [pats her head] [telepathic] Hm!
Everyone smiled at this, but suddenly, Karen's egg started to glow!
Ash: [gasps] Karen, you might wanna see this!
Pikachu: PIKA!
Karen: Huh? [gasps] My egg! It's about to hatch!
Chloe: Wow! Me and Eevee get to witness a Pokémon Egg hatching!
Eevee: [excited] EEVEE!
Then, everyone gathered around and the egg hatched to a certain Generator Pokémon. Only its eyes were currently closed!
Ash: [excitedly gasps] It's a Helioptile!
Pikachu: [excited] PIKA!
Karen: [pulls out her Rotom Phone] Let's see what you have to say about it, Rotom Phone?
Karen's Rotom Phone: Helioptile, the Generator Pokémon. An Electric and Normal type. The sun powers this Pokémon's electricity generation. Interruption of that process stresses Helioptile to the point of weakness.
Chloe: It is kinda cute!
Eevee: EEVEE!
Then, Helioptile started opening its eyes!
Bonnie: It opened its eyes!
Dedenne: DENNE!
Then, it looked up and its vision became clear as it saw Karen's face!
Helioptile: OPTI?
Karen: Hey there, little guy! Welcome to the world!
Ribombee: [greeting] BOMBOM!
Beedrill: [greeting] SPEEDRILL!
Helioptile: [nervous] OPTILE!
Lillie: It seems rather nervous!
Vulpix (Snowy): VUL!
Karen: Don't worry, Helioptile! It's okay! [pets its feeler] There there!
Helioptile: HELI?
Karen: I know you're new to the world, but I can help you in anyway I can! I can make your experience a good one!
Bunnelby: [hopping over next to Karen] BUNNELBY BY!
Helioptile: HELIO?
Karen: You're willing to help, Bunnelby?
Bunnelby: [affirmative] BUNNELBY!
Clemont: Of course! Back when Serena's Sylveon was an Eevee, Bunnelby was the only Pokémon it wanted to be around!
Serena's Sylveon: [agreeing] SYLVEON!
Karen: Why's that?
Serena: It was shy around others! And it always hid behind Bunnelby!
Serena's Sylveon: VEON!
Bunnelby: BUNNELBY BUN!
Karen: Hear that, Helioptile! You'll have a new friend that's willing to help too! Whaddya say, Helioptile?
Helioptile: [happy] HELIO! [leaps into her arms] OPTILE!
Karen: [cuddles Helioptile] Guess that means I caught a new Pokémon!
Bunnelby: [happy] BUNNELBY!
Ash: That's awesome, Karen! That means you've now caught six Pokémon!
Pikachu: [happy] PIKA PIKACHU!
Karen: Thanks, Ash! Now, whaddya say we watch that movie? From the beginning?
Goh: Yeah! Let's do it!
Lillie: I'll set it up! [heads to the couch]
Alex: Oinky 2 and I will make some popcorn! [heads to the kitchen]
Soon, everyone gathered to watch the movie.
Girl: [on TV] But, Aiden... if you don't stand up for yourself, no one else will!
Karen just smiled at being around all her friends, watching one of her favorite movies.
Helioptile: [snuggles against her] HELIOPTILE!
Karen: [giggles] [cuddles Helioptile]
Zee: By the way, Ashykins! When did you learn to use Mega Evolution?
Ash: I received a Key Stone from the Shalour City Gym Leader, Korrina, and then me, Goh, her, and her grandfather went to Mega Island to find a Lucarionite!
Pikachu: PIKA PIKA!
Lucario: MRAH MRAH!
Goh: And of course, Ash was successful! But then, it turns out Korrina and her grandfather set up a whole test with his Mega Alakazam! But Ash was able to get the Lucarionite with ease! But then came the big moment where Ash battled Bea, the Fighting type Gym Leader in Galar for his third battle?
Jessica: Third?
Ash: First battle, I lost! And the second battle ended up in draw! But then came the third battle with Bea! [grabs his backpack and rummages through it] I think I have DVD of the battle in here somewhere! Let's see! Aha! [pulls out a DVD in a CD case] Here it is!
Pikachu: PIKACHU!
Ash: You guys wanna see it?
Karen: Yeah! The movie can wait!
Ash: Okay! [puts the DVD in the DVD player]
Soon, they were watching his match!
Bea (TV): Use Liquidation!
Grapploct: [Liquidation move] GRAPPLOCT!
The Liquidation busted the Double Team from Lucario! Then, after dodging an Aura Sphere with Detect, she switch out to Hawlucha and after a few hits with it, she switched out to Machamp! And while in an armlock from Machamp's four arms, Ash attempted to use Mega Evolution with Lucario, but to Lucario, it wasn't the right time! Soon came the final battle! Machamp vs Lucario!
Bea (TV): [returns Machamp to its PokéBall she made it grow large with her Dynamax Band] Machamp! Gigantamax!
Machamp grew to gigantic size!
Machamp (Gigantamax): MACHAMP!
Machop: [eyes sparkling] MACHOP!
Ash (TV): Now, Lucario! [touches the Key Stone] Mega Evolve!
Then, within a flash of bright light, Lucario became Mega Lucario!
Mega Lucario (TV): MRAH!
The battle was on! Gigantamax Machamp and Mega Lucario were in a maxed out confrontation! And after some Dynamax moves and with a brutal G-Max move to finish it off, Mega Lucario countered it with the largest Aura Sphere ever made and they clashed together, but the Aura Sphere provailed and Machamp shrank back down with swirls in its eyes!
