| - Slab: They won't be cheering for you when I get through with you, McToss. Caber: Jordan, please. I'm sorry for what happened back in Cerulean City, but you can't do this. Revenge is never the answer. Slab: (scoffs) Revenge is all that has kept me going! (brings out a Poké Ball) Go, Hariyama! Hariyama: (appears) Hari Yama! Caber: (brings out his Fast Ball) Guess that's it then. Go, Latios! Joel: Interesting idea, using Latios who's a Psychic-type against a Hariyama who's a Fighting-type. Amy: Smart thinking on Caber's part. Sugar: You can do it, Caber! You can do it! Referee: Begin the battle! Referee: Hariyama is unable to continue. Latios wins. Slab: Go, Mienshao! Mienshao: (appears) Mienshao! Joel: So Slab's Mienfoo evolved... Caber: (brings out his Dusk Ball) Go, Druddigon! Druddigon: (appears) Druddigon! Referee: Mienshao is unable to battle. Druddigon wins. Slab: (brings out another Poké Ball) Go, Breloom! Breloom: (appears) Breloom! Caber: (brought out another Poké Ball) Go, Flygon! Flygon: (appears) Flygon! Referee: Both Pokémon are unable to continue. This ends with a draw! Announcer: With that, we take a short break to allow our two trainers to catch their breath. Polly: You're doing great, Caber! Sugar: Put that creep in his place! Slab: (brings out another Poké Ball) Your winning streak ends here, McToss! Go, Lucario! Caber: (brings out his Fast Ball again) He'll eat his words for sure. Go, Latios! Referee: Lucario is unable to battle. Latios is the winner. Slab: Go, Heracross! Heracross: (appears) Hera! Caber: (brings out another Poké Ball) Go, Tyrantrum! Tyrantrum: (appears) Tyrantrum! Slab: Seriously, McToss? Caber: Don't underestimate my Pokémon! Referee: Heracross is unable to battle. Tyrantrum wins. Caber: Slab, are you ready to admit that we're equals? Slab: NEVER! Go, Gallade! Gallade: (appears) Gallade! Caber: Here goes. Go, Charizard! Sugar and Polly: (in unison) Go, Caber, go, Caber, go-go-go! Slab: Gallade, Mega Evolve! Caber: We'll do it, too. Charizard, Mega Evolve! Slab: Don't think Mega Evolving'll safe you, McToss! It won't be long before victory goes to me! Caber: Get ready to eat your words, Slabinsky! Sugar and Polly: (in unison) Go, Caber, go, Caber, go-go-go! Big Faye: Oh my... Amy: They're both equally powerful. Joel: No doubt. But I know Caber and Charizard can pull through. Referee: Mega Gallade is unable to battle. Mega Charizard X is the winner. And since he still has five Pokémon remaining, that means the victory goes to Caber McToss of Blackthorn City! Announcer: And that means young Caber McToss goes to the finals, ladies and gentlemen! Slab: I'll get my revenge, McToss! (runs away) Announcer: Tune in tomorrow where we will see the results of the finals, ladies and gentlemen. Sugar: You were awesome! Caber: Just can't get enough of throwing a party for me, huh, Sugar? Sugar: No way! (grins) Brynn: (comes up) That was a great battle, Caber! Lookin' forward to battlin' ya tomorrow. Caber: Thanks, Brynn. Voice: (singsongy) Hello, everyone! Caber: (surprised) Mom?! Emily: How are you, sweetie? How does it feel to be in the finals? Caber: Feels... Great, Mom. Emily: (hugs her son) Oh, I'm so proud of you. I just had to come and support my baby. Caber: Uh, Mom, you forgot your shoes again, didn't you? Emily: (looks) Oh! (giggles and wiggles her toes) Well it doesn't matter. How is everyone? Polly: We're fine, Mrs. McToss. Sugar: Yeah, absolutely! Big Faye: Uh-huh. Emily: Oh, wonderful. Polly: Oh, Mrs. McToss? This is Brynn, she's Caber's rival. Emily: Oh, hello, dear. Brynn: Um, hi. I'll be battling your son tomorrow. Emily: Ooh, how wonderful. I know you'll both give it your all. Caber: Eh, thanks, Mom. Sugar: Oh. Hey, Mrs. McToss. Emily: Sugar, dear, have you thought more about what we talked about before? Sugar: About what? Emily: Why, about being a Pokémon Coordinator, of course. Sugar: Yeah. It sounds awesome! (throws a party bomb) Emily: Oh, lovely. Have you told the others yet? Sugar: Maybe I should... Emily: It'll be alright, dear. You can tell them when you're ready, especially my son. (winks) Emily: Um, tell me, dear. Is there something you like about Caber? I have noticed you cheer a lot for him. Sugar: Uh... Emily: Sweetie, it's okay if you have a crush on my son. I think it's adorable. Sugar: (nervously) H-H-How'd you know? Emily: A mother's intuition, dear. I've known about it for sometime. Emily: You don't have to worry, Sugar. If it makes you uncomfortable, I'll keep it to myself. Sugar: (hugs Emily) Oh, thank you, Mrs. McToss! You're the best!
