Today, Ash, Brock and Misty are taking a short break from their Pokémon adventures. As always, Ash is determined to become a Pokémon Master. And, as always, he's ready to endure any hardship, bear any burden with strength, stamina and a will of steel.

Ash
[weakly]

Hungry. Need food.

Misty
[annoyed]

Oh, Ash, you haven't done a thing all day!

I'm too weak to work, Misty; I haven't eaten since breakfast.

Misty
[groans]

Ohh.

[while cooking]

This lunch is gonna be just perfect for you, Ash. It's my Lazy-Boy No-Chew Stew.

[Someone approaches Ash and his friends. Pikachu and Togepi stop playing and run back to Ash and Misty] [pointing at Ash]

Hey! You, there! I'm looking for a Pokémon trainer named Ash from Pallet Town. You know him?

Ash

Yeah, he's me.

Raymond

Let's have a match! Unless you're afraid to lose! [grabs a Pokéball]

Ash
[stands up in excitement]

Ha! I'm afraid you're going to lose this one!

Misty

Ash, you just said you were too weak to work!

Ash

That's right, I am too weak to work, but a Pokémon battle isn't work.

[still cooking]

That's progress. At least his mouth is working.

[agreeing with Brock]

Pikachu.

[last lines] [sees Mew]

Hey, what's that?

Brock

Hmm?

Misty

What's what? [Mew disappears] I don't see anything, Ash.

Brock

Except the sky.

Ash
[smiles]

Hmm. The day I left home to start my Pokémon journey, I saw a really rare Pokémon, and just now, I thought I saw another one.

Misty

Well, maybe you're just seeing things, Ash.

Ash

Huh?

Brock

Well, maybe he's not.

Ash

Ha-ha! Hmm. Well, maybe we'll see.

[nods in agreement]

Pikachu.
