Professor Oak! Check out the new Pokemon I caught
- Prof. Oak
Excellent news Ash! I'm always excited to update my Pokedex, let me see them.
- Ash
I think this one might be a normal-type Pokemon.
- Dog
Woof.
- Prof. Oak
Uhh Ash, that's a dog.
- Ash
Cool, a Dog!
- Prof. Oak
No, that's not a Pokemon, it's just a common dog. Looks like a yellow-lab.
- Ash
I don't understand.
- Prof. Oak
Dogs are animals, they don't have special abilities like Pokemon.
- Ash
You just haven't seen them yet. Dog! Use speak-attack!
- Dog
Woof, woof!
- Prof. Oak
He's just barking.
- Ash
He knows growl and bite too. Dog! Go!
- Dog
Grrr.
The dog bites Prof. Oak.
- Prof. Oak
What the hell Ash! Dogs aren't supposed to attack people.
- Ash
You're right, let's set up a ring in the basement and I'll battle your Dog against mine.
- Prof. Oak
No! I'm not going to support dogfights. What else do you have to show me?
- Ash
I caught a new flying-type Pokemon!
- Chicken
Cluck, cluck, cluck.
- Prof. Oak
…That's not a Pokemon, that's a chicken. How can it be a flying-type Pokemon if it can't even fly?
- Ash
Chicken is just a low level, it lays Pokemon eggs and knows peck though. Chicken! Use peck!
The chicken pecks Prof. Oak.
- Prof. Oak
That's super annoying! And those eggs are for breakfast.
- Ash
You eat Pokemon for breakfast?! You monster!
- Prof. Oak
I don't think you understand. Pokemon are unique, they can perform powerful attacks, and are cool looking like Charizard or Onyx.
- Ash
Oh, like this one? It has a duckbill, beaver tail, is covered in fur, and also lays Pokemon eggs.
- Platypus
…
- Prof. Oak
Again… that's not a Pokemon, that's a platypus. Ok, as a general rule, all Pokemon can say their own name. Like Bulbasaur or Squirtle.
- Platypus
Platypus, plata-plata-pus-pus.
- Prof. Oak
WTF?! I give up.
