English Official Summary

As Round One of the Sinnoh League gets under way, Ash learns he will be battling none other than his friend, the musician Nando. Our heroes also run into Paul, who is planning to use his trademark analytical strategy. And then Ash literally runs into a very confident and excited Barry! Battling in a three-on-three format, Ash and Nando initially appear to be evenly matched. But as Ash’s desire for a real head-to-head battle takes hold, Nando becomes fascinated with the action—and a bit distracted in the process. After a moment, he manages to clear his head and battle back using his own style. Finally, Ash claims victory, but Nando is satisfied with his own efforts and bids our heroes a fond farewell. Conway and Barry catch up with our heroes to report that they both won their first-round battles. So did Paul—and an unknown Trainer who defeated his first opponent with a Darkrai! Far from the action in the arena, Team Rocket has managed a victory of its own, successfully selling snacks for the crowds at the Sinnoh League. The team has been impressing the head of concessions, thanks to some smart sales strategizing by none other than Meowth! Round Two of the Sinnoh League is soon to come, and we leave our heroes looking forward to even more battle action!

Portuguese Official Summary

Com o 1º round de Lírio da Ilha Valley da Liga Sinnoh começando, encontramos Ash que irá batalhar contra ninguém menos que seu amigo e rival Nando. Nossos heróis também observam Paul, que está planejando usar sua estratégia típica de análise, e Ash concorre, literalmente, concorre com um Barry muito confiante e animado! Lutando em um formato de 3 a 3, a partida entre Ash e Nando inicialmente é dar e tirar, mas como o desejo de Ash para ter uma batalha de  cabeça a cabeça com Nando demora, Nando fica fascinado com isso, fascinado até demais, até voltar ao seu normal e batalhar usando seu próprio estilo. Apesar de Ash finalmente vencer a partida, Nando está satisfeito com seu próprio esforço, e depois despede-se carinhosamente de nossos heróis até se reencontrarem. Nossos heróis também ficam sabendo que Conway e Barry venceram seus primeiros rounds de batalhas, assim como Paul, e um treinador desconhecido, que venceu seu oponente usando apenas o seu Darkrai! Enquanto isso, em uma arena totalmente diferente, encontramos uma Equipe Rocket muito perspicaz fazendo sucesso vendendo lanches em sua própria lanchonete para a multidão na Liga Sinnoh e impressionam o chefe das concessões, graças a algumas estratégias de vendas realizadas por ninguém menos que Meowth! E deixamos nossos heróis, e toda ação, com o 2º round da Liga Sinnoh terminando...

Finnish Official Summary

Lily Of The Valley -saaren Sinnoh-liiga alkaa ja Ash saa vastaansa kenetpä muunkaan kuin ystävänsä ja kilpakumppaninsa Nandon. Sankarimme törmäävät myös Pauliin, joka suunnittelee käyttävänsä itselleen ominaista analyyttistä strategiaa. Ash myös kirjaimellisesti törmää hyvin itsevarmaan ja innokkaaseen Barryyn! Ashin ja Nandon kolme-vastaan-kolme-ottelu on aluksi tasaväkinen, mutta sitten Ashin palava otteluhalu alkaa kiehtoa Nandoa – hieman liikaakin – ja menee hetki ennen kuin Nando pääsee taas tilanteen tasalle käyttämällä omaa ottelutyyliään. Vaikka Ash lopulta selviääkin voittajana ottelusta, Nando on tyytyväinen suoritukseensa ja hyvästelee iloisena sankarimme toistaiseksi. Pian selviää, että myös Conway ja Barry ovat voittaneet omat ensimmäisen kierroksen ottelunsa, samoin kuin Paul – sekä tuntematon kouluttaja, joka voittaa vastustajansa käyttämällä pelkästään Darkraitaan! Sillä välin aivan toisenlaisella “areenalla” toimii ovela Rakettiryhmä, joka myy Sinnoh-liigayleisölle naposteltavaa omasta kioskistaan. Meowthin laatimat myyntistrategiat toimivat niin loistavasti, että Rakettiryhmä tekee vaikutuksen myyntikojujen johtajaan! Seuraavana vuorossa onkin sitten Sinnoh-liigan toinen kierros...

Spanish Latin America Official Summary

En la primera ronda de la Liga Sinnoh, ¡Ash se enfrenta a su amigo Nando! Ash consigue la primera victoria, Nando la segunda, y luego sus Pokémon se eliminan entre ellos. A cada Entrenador sólo le queda un Pokémon; ¡Nando saca a Kricketune, y Ash responde con Heracross! Kricketune usa Canto para poner a Heracross a dormir, pero sabiendo que Nando suele usar movimientos musicales, Ash le enseñó a su Heracross a usar Sonámbulo, ¡lo que significa que aún puede atacar! ¡Kricketune pierde y Ash gana su primer encuentro, al igual que Conway, Paul, Barry y un misterioso Entrenador que tiene al Pokémon Mítico Darkrai en su equipo!

Spanish Official Summary

Russian Official Summary

В первом раунде Лиги Синно Эш будет сражаться ни с кем иным, как с его другом и соперником Нандо. Перед боем Эш сначала встречает традиционно хладнокровного Пола, а потом и буквально сталкивается с уверенным в себе Барри. Поединок же с Нандо начинается за явным преимуществом Эша. Однако Нандо быстро берет себя в руки и выравнивает положение, благодаря своему уникальному стилю ведения боя. Победителем из схватки выходит Эш. Однако Нандо остается доволен своим выступлением и желает Эшу дальнейших успехов. Конвей, Барри и Пол также выигрывают свои первые схватки, как и загадочные тренер, который использует в бою лишь одного Даркрайя. Команда Р, тем временем, решает подзаработать и открывает свою лавочку по продаже сладостей и сувениров рядом с ареной Лиги Синно. Их тактика продаж, разработанная Мяутом, впечатляет руководительницу ярмарки, и она предоставляет троице более выгодное место для ведения торговли. Наших же героев ожидает второй раунд Лиги Синно.

Dutch Official Summary

Terwijl Ronde Een van de Lily of the Valley Sinnoh League van start gaat, zien wij dat Ash tegen niemand anders zal vechten dan zijn vriend en rivaal Nando. Onze helden komen ook Paul tegen, die van plan is om zijn typische analytische strategie te gebruiken. Ash botst tegen een opgewonden Barry, die blaakt van zelfvertrouwen. Het Gevecht is drie tegen drie tussen Ash en Nando en in eerste instantie gaat het gelijk op, maar als de wens van Ash om een echte krachtmeting met Nando te houden vorm krijgt, raakt Nando daardoor gefascineerd. Een beetje te gefascineerd, totdat hij weer tot zichzelf komt en het Gevecht op zijn eigen manier verder speelt. Hoewel Ash uiteindelijk de match wint, is Nando tevreden met zijn eigen inspanningen en zegt onze helden vriendelijk gedag. Onze helden ontdekken ook dat Conway en Barry beide hun eerste Gevechtsronde hebben gewonnen, net als Paul en een onbekende Trainer die zijn tegenstander verslaat door steeds alleen maar zijn Darkrai te gebruiken. Ondertussen vinden wij in een totaal andere ‘arena’ een zeer slim Team Rocket, dat met succes snacks verkoopt in hun eigen snack shop voor het publiek van de Sinnoh League. Ze maken indruk op het hoofd van de marketing, dankzij een slimme sales strategie van niemand minder dan Meowth. En we verlaten onze helden en alle actie, als Ronde Twee van de Sinnoh League gespeeld moet gaan worden.

Norwegian Official Summary

I det runde en i Lily of The Valley Sinnoh League er i gang, treffer vi Ash som skal kjempe mot ingen ringere enn hans venn og rival Nando. Våre helter treffer også på Paul, som planlegger å bruke sin typiske analytiske strategi, og Ash løper bokstavelig talt på en veldig selvsikker og spent Barry! Kampene er i tre mot tre-format, og kampen mellom Ash og Nando er gi og ta i starten, men Ash sin trang til å ha en skikkelig mann-mot-mann-kamp mot Nando tar overhånd, Nando, blir fascinert av det; kanskje litt for fascinert – til han finner fotfestet igjen og slår tilbake ved å bruke sin egen stil. Selv om Ash tilslutt vinner kampen, er Nando fornøyd med innsatsen sin og sier varmt farvel til våre helter; til de møtes igjen. Våre helter får også vite at Conway og Barry har vunnet hver sin første runde med kamper, og også Paul – og en ukjent trener som slår motstanderen sin bare ved hjelp av sin Darkra! I mellomtiden, på en helt annen "arena", finner vi veldig lure Team Rocket, som med hell selger snacks fra sin egen kiosk for publikum fra Sinnoh League, og de imponerer konsesjonssjefen, takket være salgsstrategiene til ingen ringere enn Meowth! Og vi forlater våre helter – og all spenningen – når runde to av Sinnoh League snart finner sted...

Swedish Official Summary

Den första ronden i Lily Of The Valley Sinnoh Ligan inleds, och Ash ska strida mot ingen mindre än sin vän och konkurrent Nando. Våra hjältar springer också på Paul som tänker använda sin vanliga, analytiska strategi, och Ash springer bokstavligt talat in i en väldigt självsäker och entusiastisk Barry! Striderna sker i tre mot tre-format, och matchen mellan Ash och Nando handlar till en början om att ge och ta, men Ash blir alltmer inställd på en närkamps-strid med Nando, som alltmer fascineras av tanken – en aning FÖR fascinerad – tills han återfår kontrollen och strider med sin egen stil. Även om Ash slutligen tar hem segern i matchen är Nando nöjd med sin insats och tar sedan ett kärt farväl av våra hjältar tills de ses nästa gång. Våra hjältar får även veta att både Conway och Barry har vunnit sina första strider, och det har även Paul – och en okänd tränare som besegrar sin motståndare bara med hjälp av sin Darkrai! Under tiden – på en helt annan ”arena” – hittar vi listiga Team Rocket som säljer snacks till publiken vid Sinnoh Ligan från en egen butik, och lyckas imponera på den tillståndsansvariga tack vare en säljstrategi som tas fram av ingen mindre än Meowth! När vi lämnar våra hjältar – och händelsernas centrum – ska andra ronden i Sinnoh Ligan snart ta vid.

Danish Official Summary

Ved begyndelsen af første runde i Lily of the Valleys Sinnoh Ligaen viser det sig, at Ash skal i kamp mod ingen anden end hans ven og rival, Nando! Vores helte render også ind i Paul, der som sædvanlig vil benytte sin analytiske strategi, og Ash løber bogstavelig talt ind i en meget selvsikker og spændt Barry! Kampen mellem Ash og Nando foregår som 3 mod 3 og bølger i starten frem og tilbage. Men Ash vil gerne have en en til en kamp med Nando, som bliver fascineret af ideen – lidt for fascineret – men dog genvinder fodfæstet og gengælder angrebet i sin personlige stil. Selvom Ash ender med at vinde kampen, er Nando tilfreds med sin egen indsats og tager hjerteligt afsked med vores helte med ønsket om snarligt gensyn. Vores helte hører desuden, at Conway og Barry begge har vundet deres kampe i første runde, ligesom Paul – samt en ukendt træner, der kun har brugt sin Darkrai til at overvinde sin modstander! I mellemtiden, på en helt anden ”arena” er et meget snedigt Team Rocket i gang med at sælge snacks fra egen butik til Sinnoh Ligaens tilskuere med en succes, som imponerer bevillingsmyndighederne, takket være en salgsstrategi udtænkt af ingen andre en Meowth! Vi tager afsked med vores helte og hele sceneriet kort før anden runde i Sinnoh Ligaen finder sted...

Script Error

Magmarashi is mentioned in the Japanese original as a Pokémon he could select but it is left out in the English dub.

Ash: So that means I should choose from Glalie, Infernape, Staraptor or Swellow then, right?
Satoshi: In that case, Onigohri, Magmarashi, Goukazaru, Mukuhawk or Osubame would be good.
(サトシ): それなら オニゴーリにマグマラシにゴウカザルムクホークにオオスバメのどれかだな。
02:40

Script Error

In the Japanese original, Shinji doesn't insult Satoshi after Satoshi explains that he is going to beat Shinji through fighting spirit. Shinji just calls him naïve for thinking that way.

Paul: You're pathetic.
Shinji: How naïve.
(シンジ): 甘いな。
03:34

Script Error

While the Sinnoh League is a large complex, it's unlikely an airport would be required to traverse it.

Jessie: If we were any farther away from the action, we'd have to build our own airport.
Musashi: Thanks to her our shop is in the far corner of the grounds!
(ムサシ): お陰で… 私たちのお店が会場の隅っこじゃない!
07:20

Script Error

Most of the items Team Rocket sell are the same in both the Japanese and English versions like the Swablu/Tyltto cotton candy and Bronzor/Dohmirror rice cracker but the English dub dropped the dumpling part for the Octillery snacks.

The Solrock rice cakes (Manjū まんじゅう) were translated to specifically state they are Solrock bean bun.

James: Yummy Octillery snacks! Swablu cotton candy!
James: Bronzor rice crackers and a Solrock bean bun only add to the fun!

Kojiro: Delicious Okutank dumplings and Tyltto cotton candy!
Kojiro: We have Dohmirror rice crackers and Solrock yeast bun as well!

(コジロウ): おいしいオクタン焼きにチルットのわたあめ!
(コジロウ): ドーミラーせんべいにソルロックまんじゅうも揃ってるよ!
07:48

Script Error

The English dub should have used the phrase: "The customer is always right!" instead for Meowth's line.

Meowth: Happy folks are hungry folks.
Nyarth: The customer is king!
(ニャース): お客様は 神様ニャ。
09:50

Script Error

Just before and just after the commercial break in the Japanese original, Satoshi tells Mukuhawk to fly into the air. Both instances were not included in the English dub.

Satoshi: Fly, Mukuhawk!
(サトシ): 飛べ ムクホーク!
19:24

Paint Edit

Just after Satoshi beats Naoshi, Heracros comes over and sucks Satoshi's head. While Pikachu turns to look at them, Pikachu doubles. It is not a deinterlacing or ghosting issue. The same clip was used for the DP184 preview on Pokemon Sunday 299.

I really do hope they don`t end Satoshi`s journey here, to be honest I really think it`s far too soon, we`ve been with this show for so long, there`s no reason to stop.

Aside from that, this episode was one of my favourites in a long, long time. The introduction of such an ominous character, even controlling a Darkrai, with such litte information really provides some phenomenal suspicion and foreshadowing. Additionally, seeing Heracross, one of my, if not my favourite of Satoshi`s Johto Pokemon battle in close-combat using Focus Punch like that was incredibly fun to watch. This is becoming what seems to be the greatest Pokemon League Tournament, Satoshi is even splicing in his older Pokemon with his new, and the story is better than every before. I`ll definitely be watching this episode again in the future.

This was a good episode. I really liked how some of Ash's older Pokémon made an appearance. I wish that he had a Typhlosion but I guess then it wouldn't be as cute. Even so, it was nice to see his Heracross and Quilava again.
Ash's opponent was also interesting since he played music while he battled. Given this I thought he would have a Chatot but strangely, he didn't. He took his loss really well and that was also something I really liked. Perhaps the most interesting part of the episode was when Quilava and Armaldo knocked each other out. It was actually surprising to me that Quilava could take out a Pokémon so large but it did, although it did have a type advantage.
Overall this was a good start to the Sinnoh League.
