    Sebastian: The guy you are looking for wanted to know the source of R. [coughs] It comes from the doctor. That's all I know. Now let me go! Lieutenant Yoshida: Tim, this job, it demands a lot. [referring to Harry] But you were on his mind everyday. He loved you more than anything else in the world. Dr. Laurent: [last words] We're losing power in the containment chamber!

    Psyduck: Psyduck. Psyduck. Tim Goodman: Are you trying to rob me or just annoy me? Psyduck: Psyduck. Lucy Stevens: He’s with me. Lucy Stevens: We need to talk. Tim Goodman: We do? Lucy Stevens: I’ve been waiting to see who would open up that mailbox. You just walked into quite a story. [walks down the stairs] Stories like this spread fear, and they’re afraid of fear. But I don’t fear fear. I walk the walk and I talk the talk and I’m willing to do whatever it takes to get the honest scoop and that’s the hard truth. Tim Goodman: I’m sorry. Who are you? Lucy Stevens: Lucy Stevens, reporter for CNM. Tim Goodman: Oh. You seem kinda young for that. Lucy Stevens: I work for the CNM blog making Pokémon listicles all day, okay? “Top 10 Cutest Pokémon.” Tim Goodman: Yeah, my grandma loves those! Lucy Stevens: Yeah, newsflash! They’re all cute! Such a waste of time for someone with my nose for a story. [Psyduck quacks nervously] Oh, no, no, not now, Psyduck. I’m working a source, just one more mi

    Tim Goodman: [holding up a stapler] Whoever you are, I know how to use this. Tim Goodman: It's a Pikachu? Pikachu: Ah, geez. [jumps up on a dresser] Tim Goodman: Hey, little guy, how did you get in here? Pikachu: [speaks slowly] I know you can't understand me, but put down the stapler, or I will electrocute you. Tim Goodman: Did you just talk? Pikachu: Woah, did you just understand me? Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. That is heavy eye contact right there. You heard me! Tim Goodman: No, no, no. Pikachu: [excited] Yes you did! Tim Goodman: Stop! Pikachu: Oh, my god, this is amazing! Tim Goodman: Stop! Pikachu: You can understand me! Tim Goodman: Stop talking, stop! Pikachu: And I’ve been so lonely. Tim Goodman: I’m gonna throw up.

    Pikachu: Hold up a sec. We’re gonna need each other. Tim Goodman: No, we don’t. I don’t need a Pokémon. Period. Got it? Pikachu: Then what about a world-class detective? Because if you wanna find your pops, I’m your best bet. Tim Goodman: I think a world-class detective oughta have figured out by now that I’m not here to find my father. I’m here to say goodbye. Pikachu: Hey, hey, there’s no one to say goodbye to. Look, you can talk to humans, I can talk to Pokémon. We can talk to each other. This doesn’t happen, kid. It has to mean something. There’s magic that brought us together, and that magic is called hope. [climbs on top of an idling taxi] Hope that Harry is still alive. [Tim stops and says nothing] Oh, you feel it. You feel it in your jellies, don’t you? Tim Goodman: There’s nothing in my jellies. Pikachu: We’re gonna do this, you and me. Tim Goodman: I can’t believe… I will meet you here tomorrow morning. Pikachu: Great!

    Lucy Stevens: Mr. Clifford! Mr. Clifford! Mr. Clifford, I may have a story for you. I’ve heard rumors of Pokémon attacking people. But there’s been no mainstream coverage. I think that-- Roger Clifford: I’m sorry, we’re not a tabloid. Which means that we don’t report on rumors, gossip, or hearsay. [fiddles with his sunglasses before taking a drink from Lucy] It’s not news if it can’t be verified. [puts his sunglasses on] You want a story, find a source. Oh, and pro-tip: A reasonable sense of fashion. Pikachu: Ah, here she comes, here she comes. Try to look deep. Lucy Stevens: What are you doing here? Tim Goodman: Hey, again. Uh, yeah, I know this seems weird but I actually needed to ask you something. Lucy Stevens: Now’s not, not really a good time. Tim Goodman: Yeah, I saw that. I’m sorry. Pikachu: Sorry, it’s piping hot. Lucy Stevens: You found yourself a Pokémon partner. Tim Goodman: Not exactly, no. Lucy Stevens: [scratches Pikachu’s face.] Aww, he's cute! Pikachu: Ha! Yeah, she’s

    Pikachu: Now obviously, I've dealt with this putz before, so I'll just do it again. Pikachu: Give me my hat back! That thing just chugged a year's worth of that R stuff! Tim Goodman: It's like you said, okay? You did it before. You just gotta use your powers. You can use Quick Attack, Discharge, or Electric Bomb, but I think Volt Tackle is your best move, so let's start with that. Pikachu: First of all, when did you learn how to be a Pokémon trainer? And secondly, GET ME THE HELL OUT OF HERE!

    Tim Goodman: I should’ve gotten on that train. Pikachu: What’s that, kid? Tim Goodman: After my mom died, my dad and I drifted apart. He moved here and poured himself into his work. And, eventually, he tried to get me to come live with him, but I wouldn’t go. Pikachu: How come? Tim Goodman: I didn’t think he cared. I guess I just got used to him not being around and I couldn’t forgive him for it. Until I got here, and… I realized that he did care. But, I didn’t know. Because I never gave him the chance. And now, it’s too late. I really… I really wish I’d gotten on that train. Pikachu: Mhm. Listen kid, um… I may not have memories, um… But I know this much: It wasn’t your fault. It wasn’t anybody's fault. And I’m sure that if your dad was here, he would hug you so hard, your bones would pop. And he’d tell you he’s sorry for everything. He’d be damn proud of you, kid. Tim Goodman: I haven’t been really nice to you. Pikachu: No, you really haven’t. Tim Goodman: Well, we still got one myste

    Pikachu: Second chances are special things, kid. There’s a lot we can make better if we crack this case. One question though, where are we going? Tim Goodman: I don’t know, I’m just going. You gotta tell me where. You’re the detective. Pikachu: Okay, if Roger Clifford is the key to all of this… Tim Goodman: Then we need someone who has access to him.

    Pikachu: I may have amnesia but I’m pretty sure this is the worst idea anyone’s ever had. Lucy Stevens: What is that? Tim Goodman: I’m not sure. Psyduck: [scared] Psyduck! Lucy Stevens: It’s Greninja. But they don’t look right. Pikachu: [reads from a label outside the pod] Test 22. Power enhancement? Tim Goodman: They were experimenting on them. Pikachu: But why? If Roger Clifford’s behind this, what’s he doing experimenting on Pokémon? Lucy Stevens: A Torterra garden. Tim Goodman: Pokémon evolution test 33. Growth enhancement. Lucy Stevens: They look normal sized to me. Maybe it hasn’t started yet. It’s like they’re trying to manipulate Pokémon evolution. Tim Goodman: Is that even possible? Lucy Stevens: I don’t know. I need to document all of this, though.
