Pokemon Journeys Season 3: Mew's Pokemon Johto Journey

Episode 112: Dueling Heroes

After the preliminary rounds, Mew and Misty are ready to compete in the Whirl Cup competition. And now, the opening Ceremony is taking place.

The announcement says, "Ladies and gentlemen, we now present our opening ceremony!"

The crowd roars. In the water stadium, all the trainers competing, including Misty and Mew are in boats as they listen to the announcement.

The announcement continues, "We welcome the many trainers who have survived their preliminary battles and strive to become Water Pokemon Alpha-Omega! Since ancient times, the Whirl Islands have been home to many different water Pokemon. The rituals associated with this great tradition are kept vital and alive to this day and are taught by Maya, the Sea Priestess!"

They soon see the priest who is wearing a white dress with a blue sash around her. She also has beautiful long purple hair, blue eyes, and holds a lovely staff with a blue orb on it.

"A Sea Priestess," Mew says.

"Wow. She's gorgeous," Misty asks.

Brock is love struck, "I've never seen such beauty!"

"We will now hear from Maya, who will give us her greeting!" The announcer adds.

Then Maya announces, "Welcome! Welcome to our friends, old and new, as we celebrate the battle for the Whirl Cup! We are most pleased to be able to share with you our love and appreciation of all water Pokémon, and at the same time, we are so very happy to include each and every one of you as true heroes of the sea! And may everyone here receive the ability to communicate with our water Pokémon brothers and sisters with this magnificent sea spirit!"

As the ceremony takes place, Team Rocket watches in the guise of snack vendors.

"Hey, James. Feast your eyes," Jessie says, and puts the binoculars in front of James' eyes, "On our next brilliant scheme."

"Someone's about to lose their marble," James says.

"Yous two can sure relate to dat," Meowth says.

"Wobbuffet!" (Sure can!) Wobbuffet replies.

"Shall we say it?" Jessie replies.

Team Rocket then says, "Team Rocket's gonna bring it home!"

"My own sea spirit!" Jessie happily says.

But James and Meowth say, "Hold it!"

Suddenly, someone asks, "Scuse me? One soda, please?"

"How about three?" Team Rocket says.

Maya continues, "And so, with our united purpose, I shall now invoke the sea spirit union!"

Maya puts the sea spirit before the light of the sun, causing it to glow blue as the glow radiates across the stadium.

"Wow," Mew says, amazed.

"Awesome," Misty says.

The glow soon fades.

"Sea spirit union?" Mew replies.

"Wasn't it great, Mew? She brought together the energy of all water Pokémon," Misty says.

And Maya announces, "And now, let the Whirl Cup begin!"

The crowd roars in excitement.

Then the announcer says, "The honored Water Pokémon Alpha-Omega will also receive a prized Mystic Water Pendant! Along with a Water Pokemon Egg."

Sitting on separate pillows is the Mystic Water Pendant, and the Pokemon Egg. The Pokemon Egg is blue, with small glowing yellow orbs circling around a large red orb in the center. It's also sitting in an incubator that is filled with water."
