English Official Summary

In Nimbasa City, our heroes run into their old friend Bianca, who’s planning to challenge the Gym Leader, Elesa. Bianca tells her friends that Elesa is also a supermodel, and takes them to one of her fashion shows so they can check out her style before the battle! After the show, they gather at the Gym, where they discover Bianca’s dad waiting for them. He’s decided that Bianca isn’t ready for her journey and wants to take her home. She points out that he started his own journey as a Pokémon Trainer when he was young, but he won’t listen. At Elesa’s suggestion, Bianca makes a deal with her father: if she can beat the Gym Leader, she gets to continue her journey, but if she loses, she’ll have to go home with him. Unfortunately, Elesa’s powerful Zebstrika is more than a match for Bianca’s team. She sadly makes plans to leave with her father, but first Ash tries to convince him to let her stay. When words don’t work, he decides to challenge Bianca’s dad to a Pokémon battle instead. The stakes are similar: if Ash wins, Bianca gets to keep traveling with them…but if Ash loses, both he and Bianca have to go home! It turns out Bianca’s dad has quite a reputation as a powerful Trainer—in his younger days, he was known as the Red Meteor, and loved to battle with his Darmanitan, the Red Flash! Ash and Oshawott take them on, and during a lull in the battle (with some help from Iris and Cilan), he tells Bianca’s dad about all the good times they’ve had traveling together as friends. Bianca’s father ends up winning, but the battle and Ash’s stories of their travels have reminded him of his own journey. He changes his mind and advises Ash and Bianca to keep traveling and growing stronger together. So Bianca’s journey continues, thanks to our heroes—and Ash gets ready for his own battle with Gym Leader Elesa!

Arrivés à Méanville, nos héros tombent sur Bianca, qui leur apprend que la Championne de Méanville, Inezia, est aussi top model ! Après avoir assisté à l’un des défilés de mode d’Inezia, nos amis se retrouvent tous à l’Arène de Méanville et découvrent que le père de Bianca est également là. Il est venu pour ramener Bianca à la maison, car il a l’impression que tout compte fait, elle n’est pas encore prête pour voyager. Bianca fait un marché avec son père : si elle l’emporte contre Inezia, elle pourra continuer son voyage. Mais Bianca ne fait pas le poids face à la Championne de Méanville, et se prépare tristement à rentrer chez elle. Cependant, Sacha apprend que le père de Bianca est un Dresseur qui a lui-même beaucoup voyagé dans sa jeunesse, et il le défie dans un combat Pokémon ! Si Sacha l’emporte, Bianca pourra continuer son voyage, mais s’il perd, il devra rentrer chez lui, à Bourg Palette ! Un terrible combat s’ensuit, mais Sacha et Moustillon sont vaincus par le père de Bianca et son Darumacho. Au cours de l’affrontement, Sacha explique au père de Bianca qu’il se bat pour elle car elle est son amie et que c’est tout ce qui compte ! Touché, le père de Bianca autorise sa fille et Sacha à continuer leur voyage. Nos héros n’ont donc plus qu’à attendre avec impatience la rencontre entre Sacha et Inezia, qui doit avoir lieu le lendemain.

Daraufhin besuchen die Gefährten eine Modenschau von Kamilla. Als sie nach der Show die Arena betreten, ist die Überraschung groß: dort wartet Bells Vater! Und er will seine Tochter mit nach Hause nehmen, denn er hat das Gefühl, dass sie nach all ihren Erlebnissen noch nicht bereit ist, auf eine Reise zu gehen. Doch Bell trifft mit ihrem Vater ein Abkommen: Wenn sie gegen Kamilla kämpft und gewinnt, darf sie ihre Reise fortsetzen. Aber Bell ist der Arenaleiterin nicht gewachsen und verliert den Kampf. Bell ist traurig, weil sie jetzt mit ihrem Vater nach Hause gehen muss. Doch Ash hat eine Idee! Da er weiß, dass Bells Vater früher selbst einmal als Trainer unterwegs war, fordert er ihn zu einem Kampf heraus! Wenn Ash gewinnen sollte, darf Bell ihre Reise fortsetzen! Aber falls Bells Vater gewinnt, wird Ash ebenfalls seine Reise abbrechen und umgehend nach Alabastia zurückkehren! Ein stürmischer Kampf beginnt, aber Ash und Ottaro kommen gegen Bells Vater (der den Spitznamen „Roter Meteor“ trägt) und sein Flampivian (den „Roten Blitz“) nicht an und verlieren. Ash hat vor dem Kampf Bells Vater erklärt, wieso er ihn herausgefordert hat: weil Bell eine gute Freundin ist! Und das berührt ihren Vater so sehr, dass er Bell erlaubt, ihre Reise trotzdem fortzusetzen. Und auch für Ash darf die Reise weitergehen! Und jetzt freuen sich unsere Helden auf Ashs Arenakampf gegen Kamilla, der Morgen schon stattfinden soll!

Italian Official Summary

Giunti a Sciroccopoli, i nostri eroi si imbattono nella loro vecchia amica Belle, che li informa che Camelia, la Capopalestra di Sciroccopoli, è anche una supermodella! Dopo aver assistito a una sua sfilata di moda, si ritrovano tutti nella Palestra di Sciroccopoli, dove trovano ad attenderli anche il padre di Belle. L’uomo è intenzionato a riportare Belle a casa, ritenendo che la figlia non sia ancora pronta ad affrontare un viaggio. Belle fa un patto con il padre: se si batterà contro Camelia e vincerà, potrà continuare il suo viaggio. Purtroppo, però, Belle non è all’altezza della Capopalestra di Sciroccopoli e deve prepararsi a ripartire col padre. Tuttavia, sapendo che l’uomo, da giovane, aveva intrapreso lui stesso un viaggio per diventare allenatore, Ash decide di sfidarlo! Se vincerà, Belle potrà proseguire il suo viaggio, ma se perderà dovrà fare ritorno a Biancavilla. Ha inizio un duro scontro, durante il quale Ash e Oshawott soccombono sotto i colpi del padre di Belle, soprannominato la “Meteora Rossa”, e del suo Darmanitan, detto il “Lampo Rosso”. Ash, però, spiega all’uomo il motivo per cui l’aveva sfidato, e cioè che Belle è una sua cara amica. Questo tocca il cuore del padre di Belle, che decide di lasciarla proseguire. Anche Ash potrà continuare il suo viaggio nonostante la sconfitta, e così i nostri eroi possono concentrarsi sulla lotta di Ash contro la Capopalestra Camelia, che avrà luogo domani.

Finnish Official Summary

Saavuttuaan Nimbasa Cityyn sankarimme törmäävät vanhaan ystäväänsä Biancaan, joka kertoo heille, että Nimbasan salijohtaja Elesa on myös supermalli! Osallistuttuaan erääseen Elesan muotinäytöksistä he kaikki kerääntyvät Nimbasan salille ja yllättyvät saadessaan tietää, että Biancan isäkin on siellä. Hän on tullut hakemaan Biancan kotiin, koska hänen mielestään Bianca ei ole sittenkään valmis matkustamaan omillaan. Bianca sopii isänsä kanssa, että jos hän voittaa Elesan ottelussa, hän saisi jatkaa matkaansa. Biancasta ei ole kuitenkaan vastusta Nimbasan salijohtajalle ja niinpä hän surullisena valmistautuu lähtemään kotiinsa isänsä mukana. Koska Ash kuitenkin tietää, että Biancan isä oli itsekin kouluttaja ja matkusteli nuorempana, Ash haastaa hänet otteluun! Ja jos Ash voittaisi, Bianca saisi jäädä matkalleen. Jos Biancan isä voittaisi... niin Ash lupaa palata kotiinsa Pallet Towniin! Alkaa hurja ottelu, mutta Ash ja Oshawott eivät pärjää Biancan isälle (jonka leminimi on “Punameteori”) ja hänen Darmanitanilleen (jonka lempinimi on “Punaväläys”), ja he häviävät. Ash oli jo aiemmin selittänyt Biancan isälle, miksi hänet haastoi: Bianca on heidän ystävänsä! Biancan isästä tämä on koskettavaa ja niinpä hän antaa Biancan jatkaa matkaansa. Ash jatkaa myös omaa matkaansa ja sankarimme odottavat innolla Ashin seuraavana päivänä järjestettävää saliottelua Elesaa vastaan.

Paint Edit

For the first time in the Portugal's Pokémon dub's history, the season title is fully translated onscreen.
01:35

Script Error

Bianca says that everyone is crazy about Elesa while Bel in the Japanese original says specifically that all girls (女性) admire her.

Bianca: The supermodel everyone is crazy about!
Bel: Every girl admires her!
(ベル): 全女性の憧れの的よ。

01:39

Paint Edit

The magazine cover has a lot of anime language on the cover but none of it means anything and is just a bunch of random letters.
01:55

Paint Edit

Once again the note out front of the gym has a lot of anime language on it but the actually symbols are just random. Dent however reads what it says so its unfortunate that they didn't try to match the typesetting of the note. The note does seem to say a lot more though than what he read as it does include the number '7'.

Cilan: "I regret I'll be away for the fashion show."
Dent: "I'm absent because of a fashion show."
(デント): ファッションショーのため留守にします。
02:39

Script Error

The gang spends the whole first few minutes of the show looking at the magazine cover that has Elesa on it and noting how pretty and gorgeous she looks and then their first things that Bianca and Iris say in the English dub is not how pretty she is but 'incredible' and 'elegant'... The Bel and Iris in the Japanese version reinforce their initial reactions to the magazine cover when they see Kamitsure in person.

Character English Translation Japanese
Bianca Incredible! Woah, so pretty! うわ すてき!
Iris She's so elegant! She looks even prettier now! ひと際きれいね。

03:02

Script Error

The English dub adds a simile for Elesa line when she compares Ash's Pikachu while it's sitting idle on his shoulder to the brightness of the sun. Kamitsure does not use a simile in the Japanese original and just states that Pikachu is sparkling and shining.

Elesa: Wow, you shine like the sun!
Kamitsure: It's sparkling and shining.
(カミツレ): ピカピカに輝いてるわね。

03:12

Script Error

Bianca in the English dub says the Nimbasa City Gym was locked when she was there but at no time did we actually see her check the front door. Who would actually say to the owner of a business that the building was 'locked'. It sound like she tried to force her way in even after reading the note.

Bianca: See, I went to the Nimbasa City Gym, but it was locked...
Bel: I'm Bel. We went to the Raimon Gym, but it was closed, so...
(ベル): 私はベル。 ライモンジムに行ったんですけど閉まってて。

05:02

Scene Cut

The English dub cut out part of Bianca's dad's line that was in the Japanese original. In the Japanese original, he restates that he thinks its a bit too early for her to be on a journey.

Bianca's Dad: I'm not telling you to give up your dream...
Bel's Father: I'm not telling you to give up. Just that it's too early...
(ベルのパパ): やめろとは言ってない。まだ 早いと…。

07:08

Script Error

The Zukan entry animation is the same one from BW001. Anime Language transcriptions:

07:18

Script Error

Up to this point, Kamitsure had been regularly referring to her getting dizzy/tingly (クラクラ) from excitement. The dub translates this sensation as "tingling", but suddenly switches to "dizzying" for a single line, breaking the intended consistency.

Elesa: Zebstrika's speed is dizzying, right?
Kamitsure: Zebraika's speed makes you dizzy, doesn't it?
(カミツレ): ゼブライカのスピードにクラクラきちゃうでしょう?

08:00

Script Error

Satoshi in the Japanese original specifically states Bel's home town of Kanoko Town. Ash doesn't specifically state her home town in the English dub.

Ash: Bianca's gotta get a grip or she'll have to go back home with her dad!
Satoshi: At this rate, she'll have to return to Kanoko Town!
(サトシ): これじゃ カノコタウンに帰ることになっちゃうぞ!

11:34

Script Error

Iris in the Japanese original says that she'll give Chobomaki some 'energizing medicinal plants' but Iris in the English dub doesn't say what she's giving it.

Iris English: I've got just the thing! This should help Shelmet feel a whole lot better!
Iris Japanese: In that case, Bel, how about some energizing medicinal plants?
(アイリス): それなら ベル!元気になる薬草 あげてみたら?

13:20

Script Error

Bianca's dad in the English dub says that her Pokémon were stolen from the Pokémon Center recently. Bel's dad in the Japanese original does not specifically state that. It's perfectly reasonable to assume that Bianca's Pokémon might've been among the Pokémon that got stolen by Team Rocket as it seems she was in the area during the time but not actually seen in BW49 and BW50 but there is a conflict between the English dub and Japanese original regarding her Pokémon.

Bianca's Dad: Well, son, I worry that she'll get into trouble like she did back at the Pokémon Center, when all of her Pokémon were stolen.
Bel's Father: The Pokémon in this Pokémon Center were stolen recently, and she might get involved in trouble similar to that.
(ベルのパパ): でもね この前もここのポケモンセンターのポケモンが盗られてしまったように何か トラブルに巻き込まれるんじゃないかと…。

16:21

Script Error

Not learning from their earlier mistake in BW31, the English dub once again mistakenly confuses Razor Shell's Japanese move name, Shell Blade (シェルブレード) and uses it in the English dub instead of the correct English localization.

Ash English Audio and Closed Captions: Use Shell Blade!
Satoshi: Shell Blade!
(サトシ): シェルブレード!

This was a pretty decent episode. My only complaint about it was its predictability... I mean, Satoshi going back to Masara Town if he loses... and they couldn't have made it even more predictable by having Mijumaru yet again imposing itself. I really hope it's going to evolve or something quite soon (or at least become stronger), because so far, he's been pretty useless, except for comic relief.

Anyway, however predictable, this episode was still nice to watch. I really like Kamitsure's voice actor for one... too bad there was no voice-acting in the games (though they wouldn't have kept the Japanese voices outside Japan anyway)!

The next episode looks much more promising! It's been quite a while since the last Gym Battle (actually, I've just realised that so far, half this series merely consists of episodes where Satoshi and co are en route to Raimon City!), as they've been slowing down the pace a great deal compared to the first 3 badges that Satoshi got over the course of 25 episodes only...

I actually enjoy watching Mijumaru, because he seems like the stereotypical tough guy or at least he tries to be.
It was funny how Belle's Chillarmy fought a Zeburaika yet again and used Tickle again. Zeburaika looks really funny when it is tickled. It seemed kind of exaggerated how weak Belle's Pokémon were, especially since Ash's Gamagaru was able to take it out it without much trouble oen episode later. Belle's father's costume was pretty funny, and I liked how as a grownup he was still willing to battle. This was a nice build-up for Ash's gym battle in the next episode.

The new opening for the English dub has horrible video cutting its absolutely horrific. Looks like they got the cheapest YouTube clip person and just took random clips and tried to make an opening. The song was okay but by no means matches the Japanese Opening or Endings for production value. At first I thought the opening was still part of the episode.
