Pokemon Journeys (Parody)
Legend? Go! Friends? Go!
Pikachu (Bestie)
💤 "Pikachu..."
Lia Wyatt
"Oh, hey, Pikachu, you're finally awake."
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Awake) "Pika..."
Lia Wyatt
"Come on down! We don't wanna be late going to Professor Owen's lab."
Pikachu (Bestie)
❗️"Pika!" (Jumps)
At Professor Owen's Research Lab
Professor Owen
❗️"Oh, it's you, Lia!"
Lia Wyatt
"Good morning, Professor. What did you wanna talk to me about?"
Professor Owen
"Actually, a protege of mine has just opened a brand-new Research Facility in Vermillion City."
Lia Wyatt
"A new Research Lab?"
Professor Owen
"And I was hoping to invite you to the Opening Ceremony."
Professor Owen
"You will come, won't you?"
Lia Wyatt
"I'd say why not? I was looking for a new adventure."
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Agrees) "Pika!"
*~ ... 《 Time Skip 》 ... ~*
On The Way to Vermillion City
Lia Wyatt
✨️ "Look, Pikachu! Even more Pokemon!"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Amazed) "Pika!"
Lia Wyatt
"Yeah, you're right!"
Professor Owen
"It seems your love for Pokemon hasn't changed, my lady. Tell me, Lia, a Pokemon Master, is that still your goal?"
Lia Wyatt
"No doubt about that! Bonding with Pokemon's 1 thing, friendship's another and family will be the bonus points."
Professor Owen
❓️"Family? Bonus? What do you mean by that?"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Sad) "Pika..."
Professor Owen
❗️(Realizes)
Professor Owen
"Never mind! It's probably not good to talk about, huh?"
At Professor Carroll's Research Lab
Professor Owen
"The 3 of us are gonna check out the town. You just go ahead, okay?"
Lia Wyatt
"Okay, Professor. We'll be waiting for you."
Lia Wyatt
❗️"Who's there?"
Yamper
⁉️ (Barking) "Yamper! Yamper!"
Lia Wyatt
"Wow! I've never seen a Pokemon like this before!"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Surprised) "Pikachu!"
Lia Wyatt
"Hey, there, what's your name?"
Lia Wyatt
💦 "I don't think it likes me."
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Greets) "Pika? Pikachu!"
Lia Wyatt
"But it sure likes you, Pikachu!"
Chelsea
"Uhm... Excuse me..." 💦
Lia Wyatt
"Oh, yeah... Sorry..." 💦
*~ ... 《 Time Skip 》 ... ~*
Professor Carroll
"Hmm? Let's see! This may not be the most accurate forecast, but in about 20 minutes an extremely rare Pokemon might just appear over Vermillion Port."
Lia Wyatt
💡 "Are you thinking what I'm thinking, Bestie?"
Pikachu (Bestie)
✔️ "Pikachu!"
Lia Wyatt
"I'll be right back, Professor!"
Lia Wyatt
"Lugia! It's me! I'm over here!"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Calling) "Pika!"
Lia Wyatt
"Lugia! Do you wanna have a battle with us again?!"
Lia Wyatt
"Pikachu, use Thunderbolt now!"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Impact) "Pika!"
Lia Wyatt
"Oh, boy... you're just as strong as ever, Lugia. Come on, Pikachu!"
Gallus
"The future's in the palm of my hand!"
Lia Wyatt
"Here we go, Lugia!"
Lia Wyatt
"Hold on tight!"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Screams) "Pikachu!"
Lia & Gallus :
⁉️ "Who are you?!"
Lia & Gallus :
(Grunting)
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Supporting) "Pika-Pika! Pikachu."
Lia Wyatt
"That was close... You shouldn't be doing that just now! That was awfully dangerous."
Gallus
✨️ "Awesome! I'm riding on top of Lugia right now!"
Gallus
"So that's how its back fins move. And It's skin. It's a lot rougher than I thought."
Lia Wyatt
❗️"Pikachu, be careful!"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Happy) "Pika-Pika!"
Lia Wyatt
"I know, it is warm. It's been quite a long time, huh, Lugia!"
*~ ... 《 Time Skip 》 ... ~*
Gallus
💦 "Phew... That was close..."
Lia Wyatt
"I know right? You never know when there's excitement coming on."
Gallus
"You're pretty funny, you know?"
Lia Wyatt
❓️"Funny? Me? Seriously?"
Gallus
"Hey, how old are you?"
Lia Wyatt
"How old am I? Uhm, about that... 24 I guess."
Gallus
"24, huh? I'm 10! What an age gap! Still, you're too cool to resist, ma'am. I'll definitely accept you."
Gallus
"I accept you as my friend."
Lia Wyatt
"Friend? Like... Befriend-Friend?"
Lia Wyatt
"Alright then, fine by me."
Gallus
"I'm Gallus from Vermillion City."
Lia Wyatt
"I'm Lia from Pallet Town. And this is my partner, Pikachu."
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Greets) "Pikachu!"
Lia & Gallus :
"Nice to meet you!" (Shake hands)
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Giggles) "Pika!"
*~ ... 《 Time Skip 》 ... ~*
In a Flower Field Somewhere
Lia Wyatt
"I'm good. We're good."
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Grunts) "Pika..."
Lia Wyatt
(Waving) "Thanks a lot, Lugia! See you next time...!"
Gallus
"And there it goes."
Lia Wyatt
"Pokemon are so cool and sweet. Even the mighty Lugia has a soft spot."
Gallus
"Yeah... Lugia reminded me that the world just has so much secrets. As long as I have the desire to, I can meet any Pokemon I want!"
Lia Wyatt
"You sure can, kid. No doubt about it!"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Encourages) "Pika-Pika!"
Gallus
"Okay, let's get back home!"
Gallus
❓️"Wait, where are we exactly?"
Lia Wyatt
"I have no idea."
Back At Professor Carroll's Lab
Chelsea
❗️"Gallus! Where have you been?"
Chelsea
"Sorry you had to do that."
Lia Wyatt
"Don't sweet it! He's exhausted."
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Greets) "Pi? Pika! Pikachu!"
Yamper
(Welcomes) "Yamp-Yamper!"
Gallus
"You're not gonna believe what happened! It's the story of my fateful encounter! You'll never guess! I met Lugia!"
Chelsea
"Is that so? But this is more important. Here, your homework printouts."
Gallus
(Pouting) "Yeah, alright... Not that I asked for them in the 1st place."
Chelsea
💢 "What did you say?"
Gallus
💦 "N-Nothing. Is your dad here?"
Chelsea
"Yeah, he's with Professor Owen."
Gallus
⁉️ "What?! You mean Professor Owen's here as well? Professor...!"
Lia Wyatt
"So, you're the friend Gallus has been talking about."
Chelsea
❗️"Well, yeah, I'm Chelsea." 💦
Chelsea
"He must of caused you a lot of trouble, didn't he?"
Lia Wyatt
"Nothing troubles me. I like your hair, by the way."
Professor Carroll
"I've never seen such close-ups before. Lugia's back fins while in flight and clear as day!"
Gallus
"Well, you haven't seen anything yet!"
Gallus
(Changes the footage)
Professor Carroll
❗️"Wait, is this underwater? This is incredible!"
Professor Owen
"So, how was your experience, Lia?"
Lia Wyatt
"It was great. I feel even closer to Lugia every time we meet."
Gallus
❗️"Wait, you've met Lugia before?"
Lia Wyatt
"I've helped and rode on it several times."
Gallus
⁉️ "No way! You're kidding!"
Lia Wyatt
"That's the truth, kid. Every time I look at Lugia, it looks back at me. And right at that moment I felt its laughter."
Lia Wyatt
"It's always laughing... Always..."
Gallus
❓️"I didn't hear any laughing sounds."
Lia Wyatt
"Not quite literally though..."
Gallus
"Oh right! There was that time when Lugia let out a huge Hydro Pump to slow down our descent before hitting the water."
Lia Wyatt
"Yeah, that was fun. It even said : 'Let's go!'"
Gallus
⁉️ "What? Really?!"
Lia Wyatt
"It just feels that way."
Lia Wyatt
"I told you, I already knew Lugia a long time back."
Professor Carroll
✨️ "That's amazing!"
Professor Carroll
(Clearing Throat)
Professor Carroll
"Alright, let me say this! I thank you from the bottom of my heart for what you've done. It's because of you 2 that I've learned things about Lugia no one's ever known!"
Professor Carroll
"And so I have a request for you both. Will you do me the honor of becoming Research Fellows at my Laboratory?"
Lia Wyatt
❓️"Research Fellows?"
Gallus
"It's a special research position, of course!"
Professor Carroll
"You'll get to meet many kind of Pokemon in this world, sharing ideas, communicating, and so much more. You'll be deepening our understanding of Pokemon. All of us, as a team!"
Gallus
✨️ "I've been waiting to hear those words. It's reality! It's my future and I can hold it in the palm of my hand!"
Lia Wyatt
"Sounds like a new adventure."
Professor Carroll
"Great! Then you'll agree to my proposal?"
Gallus
"Yeah, but I'll help you out more than Lia."
Lia Wyatt
"Oh, we'll see about that, Gallus."
Destiny Wyatt
"Are you sure you'll be alright, Dear?"
Lia Wyatt
"It'll be a huge commute from here to Pallet Town, but I can take it."
Professor Carroll
"Not a problem."
Pikachu (Bestie)
❗️(Amazed) "Pika!"
Gallus
❗️"We're gonna be Live-in Researchers!"
Gallus
(Giggling) "I call the top bunk!"
Professor Carroll
"Sorry, we only have 1 room for the 2 of you."
Lia Wyatt
"We'll do, Professor. And as long as I get up before Gallus does, everything will be alright."
Destiny Wyatt
"Lia, are you alright, dear?"
Lia Wyatt
"Mom, I'm good, okay? Besides... Gallus has just reached 10."
Lia Wyatt
"What I mean is, you're still a little kid."
Gallus
💢 "What? I definitely roll less in my sleep than you do!"
Lia Wyatt
(Chuckling) "Oh really?"
Gallus
💢 "Yeah, really! You wanna bet?!"
Lia Wyatt
"You asked for it, kid!"
Destiny Wyatt
"Alright, if that's how it's gonna be."
Destiny Wyatt
"Mr. Mime, would you mind looking after Lia for me, okay?"
Mr. Mime
✔️ "Mime-Mime-Mime-Mime!"
*~ ... 《 Time Skip 》 ... ~*
Lia Wyatt
"Have a safe trip, Mom!"
Destiny Wyatt
"Gallus, you too, please look after Lia for me, okay?
Gallus
✨️ "You can count on me!"
Professor Owen
"Lia, I'll make sure to be back soon to check on you."
Professor Carroll
"You're always welcomed, Professor Owen."
Professor Carroll
💡 "Oh, sorry! Sorry! Can you wait just a bit longer? There's just 1 final thing I almost forgot about."
Lia Wyatt
"Charmander, Bulbasaur, and Squirtle. What are they for?"
Pikachu (Bestie)
(Thrilled) "Pikachu!"
Professor Carroll
"Gallus's making his Trainer debut."
Lia Wyatt
❓️"He hasn't chosen one yet? So, who will it be then?"
Gallus
"Let's see! I think I'm gonna choose..."
Gallus
✨️ "I've already decided that my very 1st Pokemon will be Mew!"
Professor Carroll
⁉️ "Wait, you mean the Mythical Pokemon?"
Gallus
"It's my future and I can hold it in the palm of my hand!"
Lia Wyatt
(Mumbling) "You're something else."
Lia Wyatt
"Nothing. You're so unique, Gallus."
Lia Wyatt
"But, it's obvious that you still have a long way to go, so I win!"
Gallus
💢 "Hold on! Just you wait! I'll be an awesome Pokemon you'll never be!"
Lia Wyatt
"I'll be waiting for you."
Chelsea
💢 "Neither of that matters at all."
