Woody's Pokémon Journeys
License to Swim!
(AUTHOR'S NOTE: This episode will reveal the reason why Yakko can't swim.)
(The scene transfers to show the S.S. Gyarados, where Woody woke up to the ship's horn.)
Woody: [falls out of his bed] AAAAHHHH!
Benson: Wake up, people! We've arrived at Blueberry Academy!
(Faith, Mordecai, Rigby, Moose, Zee, Pinky, Brain, Yakko, Wakko, Lexie, Rocky, Bullwinkle, and Dot put on their clothes and went up the ship and Wailmer.)
Woody: Wait, that's not Blueberry Academy, that's just a building underwater.
Benson: It MAY be a building underwater, but there's a way we can get in underwater. Here, put your swimsuits on.
(Benson gives the 13 Trainers their swimsuits.)
Benson: Oh, and you'll need scuba gear.
(The 13 Trainers were given scuba masks, double-hosed regulators, a pair of oxygen tanks, and flippers. The team put on their swimsuits and scuba gear and dove under the sea.)
Dot: [in her pink one-piece swim dress and pink scuba gear] Wow, Blueberry Academy is under the sea!
Brain: How do we get inside Blueberry Academy?
Benson: We just need our students IDs.
(Everyone took out their Students IDs and were escorted into the academy.)
(Faith takes off her scuba mask, regulator, and fins and dried herself off with a towel.)
Faith: Where are we, Mom?
Sharon: This is definitely Blueberry Academy.
?: Welcome to Blueberry Academy!
Woody: Who said that?
(A man wearing a white suit, white pants, a red bow-tie, and a white fedora walked up to Woody.)
Cyrano: Pleased to meet you all. My name is Cyrano Bergerac.
Woody: What is this place?
Cyrano: This is the Terarium. It's where many Pokémon from Unova are kept in artificial biomes.
(Woody and his friends head inside the Terarium and it turns out that many Pokémon from Unova were living inside four different biomes.)
Faith: Are we still in Paldea?
Cyrano: No, the Terarium is located in Unova next to the Abyssal Ruins.
Faith: I didn't know that until now.
Arven: Come on, Mabosstiff, let's head in the academy.
Mabosstiff: [leaps with joy] Maboss!
Woody: Whoa, this place is beautiful.
Pikachu: [admiring the biomes] Pika!
(Song: The Challenge of Life)
"Rise if you're prepared for the challenge
(Rise to the challenge)
Rise if you're a champion at heart
(Rise to the challenge)
Take my hand, we'll train as one
And triumph together
(Rise to the challenge)
Nothing's gonna stand in our way
Stronger and stronger we'll
Rise to the challenge of
Life
Pokémon!"
(End of The Challenge of Life)
(The scene changes to show Woody's Pikachu, Oinkologne (Male), Pawmot (Male), Koraidon, Appletun, Armarouge, Clodsire, and Skeledirge, alongside Woody himself, jumping into the air, alongside Faith and Meowscarada, Oinkologne (Male), Pawmo, Shelgon, Togetic, Ceruledge, and her Typhlosion (Hisuian Form).

Woody: [reading the title] "License to Swim!"
Narrator: Our heroes were at the Terarium, an artificial world created with four different biomes for every kind of Pokémon.
Cyrano: Are you guys ready to head into the Terarium?
Yakko, Wakko, and Dot: We sure are!
Cyrano: Great, follow me!
(The students headed into the Terarium.)
Faith: Mom, can I do the Coastal Biome?
Sharon: Sure, sweetie. Just make sure Yakko puts his water wings on before swimming in the ocean.
Faith: Why does Yakko need water wings?
Sharon: He can't swim.
(Yakko was wearing yellow swim shorts and a pair of yellow water wings on his arms.)
Moose: There's so many Pokémon to discover in the Terarium.
Zee: You got that right, Moose.
Mordecai: [in his red floral swim shorts] This biome reminds me of the beaches back in Hoenn.
(A tail whips Mordecai's butt.)
Mordecai: Hey! Who whipped me in the butt?
Exeggutor: [Alolan Form; laughs] Exegg!
Faith: What's that, a huge palm tree?
Mordecai: Not, it's an Exeggutor.
Faith: Exeggutor? Looks more like a giant palm tree to me. [pulls out her Rotom Phone]
[Faith's Rotom Phone chimes]
Faith's Rotom Phone: "Exeggutor, Alolan Form. The Coconut Pokémon. A Grass and Dragon type. Exeggutor uses its body to attack opponents, but it usually becomes dizzy while doing so. It's said that an Exeggcute evolved from Alola's strong sunlight, changing it into this regional form."
Geoff: [throws a Poké Ball at the wild Alolan Exeggutor] Go, Poké Ball!
(The Poké Ball was thrown at Alolan Exeggutor, which became caught.)
Geoff's Rotom Phone: [chimes] Congratulations! Alolan Exeggutor has been registered to your Pokédex!
Yakko: You did it, Geoff. You caught an Alolan Exeggutor.
Geoff: Thanks, it wasn't nothing.
Faith: You guys wanna play Swimsuit Sumo Wrestling?
Mordecai: Sure!
(Faith puts on her one-piece swim dress and Mordecai puts on his red floral swim shorts. They put water inside their swimsuits and wrestled in a pool of water.)
Faith: You're going down!
Mordecai: Oh, yeah?! Well, I'm about to win the Sumo Wrestling Championships!
(Faith and Mordecai wrestled with each other, that is, until their swimsuits released water.)
Faith: Time out! Time out!
Mordecai: We need to cool out.
Faith: Good idea. You know where we should go?
Mordecai: Wait, where should we go?
Faith: The pool!
Yakko: I don't know. The pool? Isn't it super gross in there?
Dot: No, Yakko. Pools are super fun. You can dive, swim, and hold your breath underwater. And all that cool liquid on your body, it's chlorine.
Faith: I agree with Yakko. We should go to a swimming pool. Besides, it's too hot to be out here outside of Blueberry Academy.
Yakko: No. I don't wanna go swimming!
Faith: What's wrong with swimming?
Yakko: Uuuuuummm, Faith. There's something I need to tell you.
(Yakko whispers into Faith's ear.)
Yakko: [whispering] I can't swim.
Faith: You can't swim?! [voice echoing]
(Lumpy was seen near her niece Lily.)
Lumpy: Swimming is a survival skill, you know!
Faith: How do you not know how to swim?
Yakko: I never learned how to swim because I'd make goo goo eyes at the lady lifeguards and the lifeguards banned me from learning how to swim.
Faith: You know you can take swim lessons, right Yakko?
Yakko: Swimming lessons-?
(A fantasy shows Yakko attending a swimming academy. Yakko took notes in his notebook, as well as passing his swim tests. At his graduation ceremony, Yakko was given a diploma on learning how to swim.)
Teacher: Congratulations, Yakko Warner. You can swim.
Yakko: My dreams are coming true!
(Time passes and Yakko is wearing a short-sleeved work shirt with a black neck-tie and pants. He got married to Hello Nurse.)
Yakko: Bye, Marcie. I'm heading out to work!
(Yakko drops on the floor and swims to work.)
Hello Nurse: I love you, Yakko, as always.
(The fantasy ends with Yakko cheering.)
Yakko: Let's do it!
Pinky: Yakko's going to swim!
Faith: Yes!
Yakko: And my wife will love me forever.
Faith: To be honest, Hello Nurse is such a hottie.
(Moose, Yakko, Mordecai, Faith, Pinky, and The Brain sailed to a swim school near Blueberry Academy.)
Moose: Looks like we're here.
(Moose stepped out of the car. He was wearing an orange short-sleeved rashguard over his red floral swim shorts.)
Faith: Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Yakko, Moose, why are you two wearing rashguards over your swim shorts? You know we're swimming, not surfing, right?
Yakko: Yeah, but I'm not comfortable showing my body being half-naked and all. What about you, Moose?
Moose: And as for me, I wear a rashguard and swim shorts because I have something on my skin.
(Faith and Mordecai arguing)
Faith: All right, let me see what's under the rashguards.
(When Faith removed Moose and Yakko's rashguards, she saw something disgusting. There was untrimmed body hair and stretch marks, as well as a few bloody cuts.)
Faith: Oh, dear Arceus!
Yakko: I forgot to tell you this. The other day, a Mankey cut me in the stomach.
Moose: And as for me, a Sharpedo almost got me through my stretch marks.
Faith: On second thought, keep the rashguards on.
Mordecai: I don't wear a rashguard while swimming. Only when surfing.
(Later, at the Blueberry Academy Community Pool…)
Marlon: Welcome, class!
Faith: Hello!
Marlon: My name is Marlon Kai, and I'll be your swim teacher.
(The swim teacher was Marlon Kai, a Gym Leader of Humilau City. He had dark brown skin, blue swim goggles, and a pair of light blue wave-print swim shorts.)
Faith: [blushes with joy] You're so handsome, Mr. Kai.
Marlon: Please, call me Marlon.
Faith: Let's catch a movie sometime.
Marlon: I'm flattered and all, but that's not going to happen, ever.
Mordecai: Hi, Kofu, remember me? I'm Mordecai.
Kofu: We're not here to make friends, Rashguard.
?: Well, well, well, if it isn't Faith Miller.
Drew: [in his grey and white swim shorts] Is that… Daruka?
(Daruka glares evily at Faith.)
Faith: Nice one-piece swim dress, Daruka.
Daruka: Thanks.
Marlon: I'm surprised Daruka likes you.
Faith: Marlon, have you seen my sister Daruka? She joined forces with Team Rocket!
Mordecai: How come Daruka's out of jail?
Sharon: I decided to let Daruka out of jail for weekends. You know how people love Daruka.
Yakko: Um, Faith. I'm starting to freak out over here.
Faith: What do you mean?
Yakko: I don't think I can swim.
Faith: You got this, Yakko?
Pinky: You go, Yakko.
Yakko: What if I drown? Will anyone remember me and who'll take care of my hot wife and my kids?
Faith: Calm down, Yakko. Calm down. You know what Dory says in Finding Nemo, right? "Just keeping swimming."
Yakko: Just keep swimming, got it!
Marlon: Lesson one, get in the pool. Don't rush now.
(Everyone gets in the pool.)
Swimmer: Eww! That moose has a tail.
Moose: Don't get too comfortable around me, Brian because I'm gonna kick your butt.
Mordecai: Moose, we don't kick peoples' butts!
Moose: Sorry, force of habit.
Marlon: Now we just need a partner Pokémon to help us swim so I'll choose Floatzel!
[Poké Ball opens up]
Floatzel: Floatzel!
(Mordecai sends out his Sharpedo, Moose borrows Geoff's Horsea, and Yakko sends out his Dewott.)
Daruka: [sends out Huntail] Huntail, go!
[Poké Ball opens up]
Faith: Is that…? [pulls out his Rotom Phone]
[Faith's Rotom Phone chimes]
Faith's Rotom Phone: "Huntail, the Deep Sea Pokémon. A Water type, and the evolved form of Clamperl. Huntail has a thick spine, allowing it to survive in deep, dark oceans. It uses its fish-like tail to both attract and lure its prey."
Marlon: Now we're going to swim with your Pokémon.
Faith: [imitates phone ringing] Daruka, this phone call's for you. Horsea, use Water Gun!
Horsea: [Water Gun attack] Horse!
(Water got on Daruka's hair and the Eeveekyu gives Faith the middle finger.)
Daruka: What the hell did you do that for?
Faith: I was trying to make you laugh, you silly Zangoose.
Marlon: Time for paddle boards.
(Moose was riding on his paddle board, as if it were a surfboard.)
Moose: Back shark!
(Mordecai's back was covered by his paddle board.)
Moose: Hey, everybody. Look, it's Jaws!
(Faith splashes Daruka and she was sent to the bottom of the pool.)
Marlon: It's been a long day, guys. I'm so proud of you… well, most of you to be honest.
Mordecai and Moose: [both rapping] What'cha gonna do when you're down in the deep-?
Marlon: Now it's time for the final lesson: The Plunge of Faith!
Moose: Oh, no! Not the Plunge of Faith! I don't wanna die.
Marlon: Who's up first?
Yakko: Dot, I don't wanna do The Plunge of Death.
Dot: Yakko, it's the last challenge of Swim School. You're not gonna let a short diving board and 10 feet of water stop you, right?
Yakko: Yes?
Dot: Remember, just relax. Just keep swimming.
Yakko: Right. "Just keep swimming."
Mordecai: Yeah, man. Get on the board and dive into your destiny.
(Yakko gets onto the diving board.)
Brain: Just relax, Yakko.
(Yakko cuffs his hands together, but he regrets doing the diving board.)
Yakko: [crying]
Pinky: Did Yakko just give up?
Brain: Yes, Pinky. Yakko gave up swimming.
Faith: What's wrong, Yakko?
Yakko: I don't wanna swim anymore! Take me home.
Faith: Don't give up so easily. Remember the movie Finding Nemo?
Yakko: What's that?
Faith: Well, Finding Nemo is a movie about a clownfish named Martin who tries to find his son Nemo but he never gave up after losing Nemo due to the fact he was the one who touched the boat. And that's when he met Dory. And after a lot of misadventures, Dory and Martin found Nemo and lived a happy life. The moral of that movie is to never give up, no matter how hard things may seem to be.
Yakko: What happened to Nemo's mom?
Faith: Nemo's mom died. She died from an attack by a barracuda.
Marlon: I couldn't help but hearing you talk about Finding Nemo. It's one of my favorite ocean-themed movies.
Faith: Thanks. I grew up watching Pixar as a kid.
Marlon: You know what? I will go on a date with you. But it has to be a double date. Stay "hello" to my sister, Marcie.
(Marcie was a light brown 19-year-old woman with blue hair and a blue one-piece swim dress.)
Faith: Ahhhh, a human who looks like an Eevee!
(Faith falls into the water.)
Faith: Oh great, I got water in my nose.
Daruka: [laughs wickedly] You're mine now, Faith!
(Daruka opens the pool drain, sucking down Faith.)
Daruka: [laughing evilly]
Faith: No, no, no, no, no!
Mordecai: We gotta save Faith!
Brain: Oh, no, we gotta save Faith! Pinky, are you pondering what I'm pondering?
Pinky: I think so, Brain, but if Imagine Dragons sang about sharks, wouldn't they sing a song about birds?
Brain: Not even close, Pinky. We gotta rescue Faith before she heads to the ocean.
Pinky: Yeah, all drains lead to the ocean.
Brain: You've been watching Finding Nemo on TV, haven't you, Pinky?
Pinky: Sorry, I love that movie.
(Mordecai and Moose dive into the pool.)
Faith: Look out for that Muk!
(A Muk was seen eating a person.)
Faith: Now that's what I call canniballism.
(Faith was seen in the ocean, sinking to the bottom of the deep sea.)
Moose: Faith's going to drown!
("Who's that Pokémon?" segment)
Moose, Faith, and Mordecai: Who's that Pokémon?!
(A picture shows an image of an eel-like Pokémon.)
…
(A few minutes later, the question mark on the Pokémon's body disappears, revealing it to be a Huntail.)
Moose, Faith, and Mordecai: It's… Huntail!
Huntail: Huntail!
(End of "Who's that Pokémon?" segment)
Yakko: We gotta do something, Mordecai.
Mordecai: Yakko, for once, you're right.
Moose: I'll transform into a merman and rescue Faith. It's a good thing I have my own merman necklace.
(Moose puts on his merman necklace and his legs transform into a merman tail.)
Moose: I'm coming for you, Faith!
(Moose dives underwater after transforming into a merman. He puts a snorkel inside Faith's mouth and she later wakes up.)
Faith: [breathe deeply] Moose… you saved my life.
Moose: Oh, it wasn't nothing, Faith.
(Yakko moves his arms with the water wings and was able to swim.)
Yakko: I did it. I can swim! I can swim, I can swim!
Daruka: Unbelievable! I tried to drown that pesky Eevee and she survives! You win this round, Ms. Faith, but I'll be back! You hear me?! I'LL BE BACK!
Yakko: Wow, I actually can't believe Daruka tried to kill you.
Faith: Daruka's been trying to kill me for a few months now.
Yakko: She's a menace to society.
Faith: She sure is.
Narrator: With Blueberry Academy's next semester in progress, our heroes were in for 4 months of studying and working, but as for Lexie and Faith, they'll need to be on the lookout for Daruka. Who knows what'll happen for the next 4 months. Stay tuned for more adventures in Blueberry Academy, as the journey continues!
