# 0_0FGH Alder: Hello, VAR(256, 0).
This way.
# 0_1FGH Ghetsis... What a liar.
Desperately trying to con
everyone with his speech.
# 0_2FGH That's correct!
Our lord N has combined his power with
the legendary Dragon-type Pokémon\f
and intends to create a new world.
We herald the return of the hero of
Unova, founder of this region.
# 0_3BCDEFG Hero?
# 0_4BCDEFG Dragon?
# 0_5BCDEFG Legend!
# 0_6FGH Pokémon are different from people.
They are living beings who contain
unknown potential.
# 0_7FGH They are living beings from whom we
humans have much to learn.
# 0_8FGH They are beings whose greatness we
should acknowledge!
Beings who should be freed
from our oppression!
# 0_9BCDEFG Freed?
# 0_10BCDEFG Pokémon?
# 0_11FGH We, Team Plasma, invite you to join us!
We all want to create a new world where
people and Pokémon are both free!
Ladies and gentlemen, I ask you now...
Please, release your Pokémon.
And so I end my plea to you today.
Thank you one and all for your attention.
# 0_12FGH Is it true?
Have we been making Pokémon suffer?
# 0_13FGH Hmm...
Maybe we should release our Pokémon
like Team Plasma says...
# 0_14FGH No way!
Without Pokémon, I'll be lonely and sad!
# 0_15FGH What was that about?
That speech was off-the-charts strange!
# 0_16FGH The cooperation of people and Pokémon is
how Unova came to exist to begin with.
If a Pokémon really didn't want
anything to do with humans,\f
it would simply leave...
Capturing a Pokémon in a Poké Ball
doesn't mean you've captured its heart.
# 0_17FGH Alder: Let's go, VAR(256, 0)!
# 0_18FGH Alder: It's been a while, Iris
and Drayden.
# 0_19FGH Iris: Oh! Mr. Alder!
...And the guy who helped out that time.
# 0_20FGH Iris: Oh! Mr. Alder!
...And the girl who helped out that time.
# 0_21FGH Drayden: What's wrong?
What does the wandering Champion who
left the Pokémon League need from us?
# 0_22FGH Alder: Briefly, my request is this.
Tell us about the legendary
Dragon-type Pokémon!
# 0_23FGH Iris: Are you talking about Reshiram?
Or Zekrom?\f
What's the sudden interest?
# 0_24FGH Iris: Are you talking about Zekrom?
Or Reshiram?\f
What's the sudden interest?
# 0_25FGH Drayden: Moments ago, a troublemaker
known as Ghetsis was here.
He said a Trainer named N has
reawakened Reshiram...
# 0_26FGH Drayden: Moments ago, a troublemaker
known as Ghetsis was here.
He said a Trainer named N has
reawakened Zekrom...
# 0_27FGH Alder: Yes!
That Trainer called N apparently told
VAR(256, 0) here to search for the\f
other Dragon-type Pokémon!
# 0_28FGH Drayden: Let me check that I have
this straight.
This N, or what have you, presumes
to set the two Dragon-type Pokémon\f
against each other in battle\f
to test his convictions?
# 0_29FGH Iris: Oh, no!
The Dragon-type Pokémon
get along so well!
# 0_30FGH Alder: That's right, Iris.
The ones who make Pokémon battle
are the Trainers...
And it's so the Trainers and the Pokémon
can get to know each other better.
# 0_31FGH I'm going to the Pokémon League.
No, I guess in this case I should say I'm
“returning" to the Pokémon League!
Of course, I'll defeat N!
I'll teach him about the beauty of this
world, where Pokémon and Trainers\f
live together in harmony!
Also, VAR(256, 0), I'll await your arrival.
Once you've obtained the Opelucid Badge,
come to the League!
The Opelucid Gym Leader is tough.
Take care!
# 0_32FGH Farewell.
I'm counting on you, Drayden and Iris!
# 0_33FGH Iris: Aww...
He's gone.
Is he OK?
He looked kinda scary.
# 0_34FGH Drayden: Don't worry, Iris.
He is the strongest Trainer
in all of Unova.
# 0_35FGH Well, VAR(256, 0), is it?
Come to my home.
As Alder asked, I'll tell you
everything I can about the\f
legendary Dragon-type Pokémon.
Iris, child, please show the way.
# 0_36FGH Iris: You bet! If it's Opelucid City,
I can take you anywhere.
As for the story of Reshiram and Zekrom,
we'll tell you all we know about it!
This way!
# 0_37FGH Iris: You bet! If it's Opelucid City,
I can take you anywhere.
As for the story of Zekrom and Reshiram,
we'll tell you all we know about it!
This way!
# 0_38FGH Iris: That way!
# 0_39FGH Iris: Just a little farther!
# 0_40FGH Iris: This is it!
# 0_41FGH A challenger?
I'm sorry, but currently,
our Gym Leader is at home.
# 0_42FGH If all Pokémon are released, Trainers and
Gym Leaders will no longer exist.
For better or worse, the world
would surely change...
# 0_43FGH The memories of everyone who has lived
in this city have built up over the years\f
without changing much.
# 0_44FGH This city changes endlessly.
And every change is engraved in the
memories of the people who live here.
# 0_45FGH I spent so many happy days training my
Pokémon as we grew stronger together...
If it will make my beloved Pokémon
a perfect being, however,\f
I can't help but let it go.
# 0_46FGH Even if it is inconvenient, I think
some things shouldn't be changed.
# 0_47FGH Even if you love them, I think
some things have to be changed.
# 0_48FGH Hey hey! That person called N had the
legendary Pokémon with him, so he has\f
to be the legendary hero, right?
He's going to change the world, isn't he?
# 0_49FGH I like older things better than new ones.
They're just more relaxing!
# 0_50FGH I like newer things better than old ones.
They're just so cool!
# 0_51FGH ...No way! Without Pokémon, I'll be too
lonely and sad!
But am I only using my Pokémon, then...?
# 0_52FGH The Gym Leader Iris is still a child, but
the mayor Drayden has recognized\f
her power!
# 0_53FGH The Gym Leader Drayden is the mayor who
leads Opelucid.
He is always training by wrestling
with Pokémon.
# 0_54FGH So, have we really been making
our Pokémon suffer...?
# 0_55FGH Yes, I will keep moving forward together
with my Pokémon.
Even if I were to part ways with my
Pokémon, it wouldn't be because someone\f
else said to, but because we decided to.
# 0_56FGH I'll definitely keep moving forward
together with my Pokémon.
I won't take their company for granted.
I'll appreciate how amazing that is!
# 0_57FGH The legendary Pokémon is the symbol
of Unova.
Does that mean Team Plasma is right?
...I don't know.
# 0_58FGH Pursuing ideals is different from person
to person and Pokémon to Pokémon.
In this city, it seems the ideal is
to cherish the past.
# 0_59FGH The truth people pursue is different
from person to person and\f
Pokémon to Pokémon.
In this city, it seems the truth is
constant change.
# 0_60FGH The hopes of an ancient people are put
into this melody...
I will bring them back to us now.
# 0_61FGH Our hopes are put into this melody...
I will send them to the future.
# 0_62FGH Professor Juniper: ...Hello!
How was Iris doing?
# 0_63FGH Professor Juniper: ...Hello!
Was Drayden as tough as ever?
# 0_64FGH Oh, I came to report on how to
resurrect the legendary Zekrom.
I thought it would be better to tell you
in person than over the Xtransceiver.
And as for the conclusion...
Well, I haven't figured it out yet.
I'm sure the Pokémon will wake up
when it deems someone worthy.
# 0_65FGH Oh, I came to report on how to
resurrect the legendary Reshiram.
I thought it would be better to tell you
in person than over the Xtransceiver.
And as for the conclusion...
Well, I haven't figured it out yet.
I'm sure the Pokémon will wake up
when it deems someone worthy.
# 0_66FGH More importantly, aren't you amazing!
You have all eight of Unova's Gym Badges
now, right?
You've become so strong!
You probably don't even know it, but
you've changed a lot since you left\f
Nuvema Town.
Well then, I'll show you where such a
strong Trainer should head next!
# 0_67FGH Professor Juniper: Pass through that
gate, go down Route 10, and you'll arrive\f
at the Badge Check Gates!
Once you get through Victory Road,
which is past the gates, you're finally\f
at the Pokémon League!
# 0_68FGH Oh, that just made me think of when I was
showing you around the Pokémon Center\f
in Accumula Town.
VAR(256, 0)? Do you regret setting out
on your Pokémon journey?
# 0_69FGH Professor Juniper: Oh! That's OK,
don't worry! You don't have to tell\f
me everything.
But I'm very happy that you three
chose to train Pokémon!
Because they create chances to meet
more wonderful people and Pokémon!
# 0_70FGH Professor Juniper: Thanks! That's the
greatest answer you could give!
I was really happy to be able to give
you three those Pokémon as a present!
Because Pokémon create chances to meet
more wonderful people and Pokémon!
# 0_71FGH VAR(256, 0), this is a present for you!
# 0_72FGH Professor Juniper: This Master Ball is
the most powerful kind of Poké Ball.
It can catch any Pokémon without fail.
This is the only way I can support you,
except to say...\f
Be true to yourself.
No matter what happens, stay strong
and keep going with your Pokémon!
See you!
