[The episode begins somewhere in Kanto]
Charmander: Ugh, alright! We're doing it one more time! Bulbasaur! Use Vine Whip!
[Bulbasaur slaps Squirtle with the vine he likes to lick]
Squirtle: Eeewww! Why's it so wet?
Bulbasaur: Sorry, I've been chewing on it a lot.
Charmander: No! Don't apologize! Aaauugh! Bulbasaur, if you wanna evolve, you need to be less terrible at everything.
Bulbasaur: Sorry man, I'm tryin' my best.
Charmander: Well I don't believe you.
Pikachu: You know we don't have to evolve to be strong right?
[A red-clad human walks by the Starter Squad and notices them]
Squirtle: Maybe he needs to be watered or something.
Charmander: Maybe you need to shut your face.
Gaven: Human!
[COOL TRAINER GAVEN wants to fight!]
Gaven: Human human!
Charmander: Oh great. Alright, guys. I hope you're ready for this.
[Gaven sends out Hitmonchan]
Hitmonchan: Ha ha- Alright, let's- Oh come on Gavin! Pre-volves? And a Rat? Guh- Du- Thi- This is not cool! I'm almost level 35!
Charmander: Dear Lord! What is that thing!? It's hideous!
Bulbasaur: Charmander, that's not a very nice thing to say!
Charmander: Well that's not a very nice thing to see! Looks like a potato wearing a dress.
Bulbasaur: I don't know, I think it looks pretty.
Hitmonchan: Nevermind. I'm good. Let's kill 'em.
Charmander: Guess again, tater tot! Squirtle! I choose you!
Squirtle: What?
[Charmander throws him at Hitmonchan]
Squirtle: Aaaaaaah! Ouhh!! Heh heh. Heh. Uh... Hi.
Gaven: Human human!
[Hitmonchan uses Mach Punch on Squirtle, sending him flying]
Squirtle: Waaauuuuuughhhh!
Charmander: Well I can't say I didn't expect that. It's up to you, Bulbasaur! Go get 'em!
[Bulbasaur walks over to Hitmonchan]
Bulbasaur: Uh...okay... I- I guess I have to attack you now... So...uh... (flails his vines around, not actually attacking him) Hmmph! Mmph! Hmm! Yeah! This is an attack! Right? Are you feeling attacked?
Hitmonchan: I-...[sigh] I uh- I don't understand. W-what is this supposed to be? I'm confused.
Gaven: Human hu!
Hitmonchan: You know what, it doesn't even matter! 'Cause I'm about to... Wha-!
[Since Hitmonchan said he was confused, the text box says Hitmonchan punched himself in the face!]
Hitmonchan: Come on! Really? (sigh) Okay.... (sigh) I guess you know what you're doin'. (punches himself) Is it working? (punches himself again) Am I doing it right? (punches himself a third time) Wow, I am really strong! (punches himself once again)
Charmander; Pikachu get him!
Pikachu: (cracks knuckles) I'm Ready! (Uses Quick Attack)
[Pikachu charges at Hitmonchan]
