Charizard's Called-for Ambitions (Japanese: リザードンのたに！またあうひまで！！ The Valley of Lizardon! Until We Meet Over again!!) is the 134th episode of the Pokémon anime. It was first broadcast in Japan on February x, 2000 and in the U.s. on February 3, 2001.

Blurb

When Ash hears of the nearby Charicific Valley, he is certain a quick trip would be just the thing to reignite his Charizard's flagging spirits. When they reach the valley, though, they observe its dragon denizens anything but cordial. Judged weak, and denied entrance to the valley, Charizard is left more than dejected than always.

Plot

A drawn Ash and his friends hike along a path, followed past a similarly fatigued Squad Rocket. Jessie contemplates abandoning the trio's quest to capture Pikachu, while James mentions how many Pokémon Ash'due south friends have compared to them, using Ash's Charizard as an case. As they walk, Ash mentions that with Pikachu and Charizard by his side, he could crush whatsoever opponent, only his friends mention that he uses Charizard excessively, making information technology unfair for opponents. The group overhears a faint repeat, so Brock decides to respond. A woman calls over to them from atop a cliff and introduces herself as Liza, the caretaker of the Charicific Valley. Liza knows that Ash has a Charizard by the scent on him and reveals that she knows him because of his victory at the Violet Gym, earlier inviting the grouping to visit the valley.

Liza calls out Charla, a female Charizard that helps transport Liza, Misty, and Brock in a balloon. In that location isn't enough room for Ash, but Liza suggests for him to fly on his Charizard. Charla takes off as Ash asks how to ride, which stuns Liza that he had never flown on a Charizard. Ash summons his Charizard and requests a ride; he refuses at first, but Liza's taunt motivates Charizard to try. Ash and Pikachu hop on Charizard as he stomps and flies off, but he accidentally leaves them behind. Afterwards getting them back on, Charizard unsteadily and furiously flies with them onboard. Meanwhile, Liza mentions that the Charizard in the valley are wild, except for Charla. Ash and Charizard catch upwardly, but Charla speeds forward, angering Charizard. Meanwhile, Team Rocket slides downwardly a mountain hill towards the valley.

Equally Liza, Misty, and Brock reach the Charicific Valley, Liza mentions its history and how the Charizard train naturally without humans by battling each other, with the intense competition making them the strongest worldwide. Misty thinks that it would be too intense for Ash's Charizard, but Charizard tries to prove their forcefulness. However, Charla and Liza note that merely weak Charizard show off, suggesting that he needs training. Charizard fires a Flamethrower to disprove this, but he briefly sets Ash on fire while he takes her comments as an insult. Ash demands to take a boxing with Liza using Charla, but she mentions that she raised her since she was a Charmander. As a result, Ash and Charizard desire to battle the ones in the valley, and then Liza shows them all of the other Charizard, leaving them stunned at their larger size. One larger Charizard walks by and Liza points out that if Ash's Charizard can defeat it, he may qualify to join.

Charizard marches up behind it and hits it in the face with Flamethrower. Yet, the wild Charizard inhales the attack and retaliates with its own, leaving Ash's own Charizard burnt, and he collapses. Charizard gets support and shakes off the grit every bit Liza points to 1 sleeping, mentioning that despite it beingness larger than Ash's, it is still the gentlest of the Charizard. Charizard confronts that 1 and fires another Flamethrower, merely the wild Charizard hardly reacts and simply lashes its tail, tossing Charizard into a wall. Ash tries to console Charizard, stating that he volition always exist good enough for him. Charizard refuses to mind and tries to attack again, but another lash from the gentle Charizard knocks him downwards. Despite the pleas of Ash and the others, Charizard persists only continues to become browbeaten, somewhen getting kicked out of the valley. Charizard struggles to climb up the stairs, but Liza kicks the whole group out of the valley and closes the gates, telling them to return later some preparation.

Squad Rocket, watching from a distance, realizes they cannot capture whatever of the Charizard in the valley considering they were easily able to crush Ash's Charizard, who always beats them, while the mecha that they bought is inadequate, hence why Jessie names it "Gigantic Mistake". Meanwhile, after Charizard repeatedly beats the gates, Liza reopens them and repeats her instructions, simply Charizard stubbornly refuses. Liza allows Charla to assault, and Charizard is tossed into a lake. Liza tells Charizard to stay put and reflect before closing the gates over again. When nighttime falls, Misty notes that Charizard has stayed in place since that afternoon. Ash wants to leave, but Charizard doesn't budge. Team Rocket watches as Meowth translates Charizard's thoughts about wanting to be stronger. Throughout the night, Ash and his friends fall asleep, simply Squad Rocket tosses rocks at Charizard to keep him awake and prevent his flame from dying out. Through the gates, Liza and Charla realize how determined Charizard is to get in.

The adjacent morning, Ash wakes upwards and sees Charizard still sitting in place. Just then, Squad Rocket's mecha shows upwards and rolls up to the gates, attempting to break in. Charizard confronts the mecha and hits information technology with Flamethrower, causing it to explode and send Team Rocket blasting off, just as the trio had planned. The gates open up, revealing an applauding Liza, who invites Charizard in, explaining that he finally proved that he wants to enter. Shocking his friends, Ash coldly tells Charizard that he should stay in the valley if he wants to, and then adds that he doesn't want a weak Charizard anyway. Ash starts to walk away and points to the valley, telling Charizard that it has a lot to learn in that location. Then, out of fear that he might modify his mind, Ash starts running away, followed by Misty and Brock. Pikachu briefly remains to bid Charizard farewell before following the group too. As Ash runs, tears stream down his face every bit he silently hopes that Charizard will train equally hard as he can in the Charicific Valley and that Charizard won't forget him. Charizard bids his Trainer adieu by roaring and firing a Flamethrower into the sky equally Ash, knowing that he can't look back, keeps running.

Errors

  • In the English dub, Ash says that he has non ridden Charizard before; however, this is not true, as he rode on Charizard in both Attack of the Prehistoric Pokémon and Charizard Chills. He never said this in the Japanese version.
    • Technically, the moment in Set on of the Prehistoric Pokémon doesn't really count as Ash riding Charizard, as it wasn't intentional. Additionally, both Charizard and Ash were half-asleep from Jigglypuff's singing, so they may not remember information technology.
  • When James counts the Pokémon of Ash's friends, a moving-picture show of all of them is shown. Snorlax was too pictured, even though information technology was back at Professor Oak'due south Laboratory at the fourth dimension.
  • The initial dialogue betwixt Liza, Brock, and Ash was changed completely in the English dub; this included changing Liza from calling for Charizard in general to calling for Charla. This creates an mistake since multiple plumes of fire sally from behind the mountains, which couldn't accept been produced by one Charizard.
  • In the English dub, Liza refers to Misty past her proper noun despite nobody e'er telling her that name. In the Japanese version, Liza never refers to Ash, Misty, and Brock by their name.
  • When Team Rocket blasts off, their mouths move, only no sound comes out in the English dub.

Dub edits

  • Pokémon Karaokémon: Song of Jigglypuff
  • A closeup shot of Ash's Charizard being hit very hard by a wild Charizard and sent flying into the top part of the entrance to the Valley with its tail was cut and replaced with an bear upon animation.
  • Charla being evolved from a Charmander was not present in the original Japanese dialogue.
  • Several scenes of dialogue involving Team Rocket are changed in the English dub:
    • In the Japanese version, Jessie breaks the fourth wall by telling Meowth their problem is that they are going up confronting the increasingly popular Pikachu. Meowth denies this by saying that their lack of strength, not popularity, is their problem. The dub changes this to Jessie suggesting that they should pick on somebody else for a change.
    • In the Japanese version, James counts the Pokémon of Ash'southward friends but trails off past the time he reaches number seven. In the dub, he doesn't trail off and stops at twelve, which is wrong as, counting Snorlax, there are a total of sixteen Pokémon.
    • In the Japanese version, Squad Rocket once once more breaks the quaternary wall by talking near how popular Charizard is and how it's merely too powerful for them to defeat. They gather together at the cease and declare Charizard "unfair". The dub changes this to them wondering what the Boss would say if he knew how agape they are of Charizard.
  • Several scenes of dialogue involving Liza are also changed in the English language dub:
    • In the Japanese version, Liza says that the Charizard in the Valley are seen every bit the guardian deities of the area. The dub changes this to Liza saying that information technology was "a place where Charizard have lived in peace for thousands of years" and an "ancient place where the greatest Charizard in Pokémon history have come up from". Afterwards, Liza says that "the Charizard in the Valley turn out to be the best in the whole globe", which was also never said in the Japanese version.
    • While Liza just warns Ash that shooting out fire randomly is unsafe and could get him burned in the Japanese version, she instead states "just weak Charizard evidence off like that" in the dub.
    • In the dub, Liza tells Ash that "she can't exist responsible for what happens if Charizard continues to fight", while in the Japanese version, she tells that "she understands how Ash'due south Pokémon feel but that it really is no use for it to keep similar that".
    • In the dub, Liza says to Ash'south Charizard that "he will never be a great Charizard if he acts tough and doesn't respect his ain limitations". All the same, in the Japanese version, Liza tells Ash that Charizard volition be okay as long as the flame on his tail doesn't go out, which is the reason a lot of shut-upwards shots happen throughout the balance of the episode.
  • In the Japanese version, James never said that the mecha was purchased online.
