[narrator] This is
the Eevee Evolution Lab,
where today,
Eevee is having a health checkup.
[magical music]
Perfect health. Eevee's doing just fine.
-That's wonderful.
-[gibbers]
So, how have you and Eevee
been spending your time lately?
It's been great.
We took a trip to see Sylveon.
[Chloe] And we even performed
in a Pokémon Contest Spectacular.
Eevee even used Fairy Wind.
You really used Fairy Wind?
[Pinery] I wish I had seen you two
in action.
[gibbers]
After that, we met the Eevee of a friend
who lives in Alola.
She's Lana.
There's one more. The Eevee path.
Huh?
Eevee could always just stay Eevee.
[Lana] Like Ash's Pikachu.
[Chloe] Ash's Pikachu?
You're right.
So then, there are nine paths available
for Eevee.
Of course.
Lana taught me something back then
about all of Eevee's possibilities.
That's true. She's so right.
You and Eevee will decide. If it's Eevee
or Vaporeon,
Jolteon, Flareon,
Espeon,
Umbreon, Leafeon, Glaceon,
Sylveon.
Those are all the evolutions
you can choose from.
-Right.
-Tell me.
Is Eevee interested in them?
Completely. The thing is, it can't choose.
I don't know what to do.
Eevee loves every evolved form.
[Pinery] Really…

[adventure music]
[Chloe] "Infinite possibilities!"
[gentle music]
[gentle music continues]
-[Parker] I'm home.
-[gasps]
It's dinnertime.
-Yamper.
-Eevee.
[inquisitive music]
Hey, Dad? I wonder.
Why do you think Pokémon evolve
the way they do?
Huh?
Humans change just a little bit every year
as they grow,
which means they evolve
a little at a time, right?
But when a Pokémon evolves,
it's a very different thing.
They wanna get stronger.
That's true.
I'm sure there are many Pokémon out there
who evolve for just that reason.
[Chloe] The more I think of Evolution,
the more confused I get
as to whether Eevee wants to evolve
or just stay as it is.
I can't figure it out.
-[Cerise] That's just wonderful.
-Huh?
That means you and Eevee are truly
spending quality time together.
-Don't act so surprised.
-Sorry. Your question.
You're wondering why Pokémon
evolve the way they do.
We Pokémon researchers
call that an eternal question.
One with many, many answers.
It has many answers?
Here's what it boils down to.
You could say there are as many reasons
to evolve as there are Pokémon.
Wait. There are that many reasons?
Oh.
[sighs]
As for humans,
each and every one of us
is completely unique.
Only one of each person exists
and it's just the way it is.
That's only making me even more confused.
[both chuckle]
Oh.
I know.
Chloe? How about we all go camping
this weekend?
-Huh?
-Yeah. Camping. Yay.
Great idea.
It's been so long
since we've spent time outdoors.
So what do you say, sis?
Mm-hmm.
[chimes]
We are heading out.
Eevee.
-[Yamper grumbling]
-Ah. Sounds good.
We'll be joining you
right after Soccer Club is finished.
[grumbling]
Hey, you're gonna be coming
along with us, Yamper.
Yamper?
[Cerise] Yamper, protect Talia and Parker.
-[Chloe] We'll see you later.
-[all] Bye-bye.
[Yamper gibbers]
[light music]
[light music continues]
[Eevee snoring]
[Cerise] Chloe, are you awake?
-Are we there yet?
-[Cerise] Not quite.
I just have a stop I'd like to make
before we get there.
[gentle music]
-[Eevee gibbers]
-What a huge forest.
[birds twittering]
-You wanted to stop in a forest?
-Yes.
[Eevee gibbering]
This place is home
to a large number of Pokémon.
[chuckles]
[Chloe] Butterfree.
[Butterfree gibber]
[both gasp]
Dugtrio.
[Chloe laughs]
-[gibbers]
-[Caterpie murmuring]
-[Chloe chuckles]
-[Doduo gibber]
I'm sure if Goh had come along,
he'd be screaming with excitement.
Ash would too, right?
Once Goh and Ash are able to take
breaks from Project Mew
and the Masters Eight Tournament,
let's invite both of them to come along.
[chuckles]
Excellent idea.
-[leaves rustle]
-Huh? Shh.
[enigmatic music]
Eevee.
[humming]
[Chloe] How cute.
[Rotom Phone] Poliwag.
The Tadpole Pokémon. A Water type.
The swirl on its body
is its internal organs
seen through its skin.
The swirl can look different
depending on where a Poliwag lives.
Come on.
I think it's heading for the lake.
-[Chloe] Huh?
-[Eevee gibbers]
[Poliwag gibbering]
Eevee?
Eevee!
-[Poliwag screams]
-Eevee.
[Poliwag screaming]
-[Cerise] Huh?
-[Chloe] Eevee!
[screaming]
[Eevee panting]
-[screaming]
-[panting]
[Poliwag breathing roughly]
[shouting]
[yelping]
[grunting]
[Poliwag gibbers]
[Eevee screaming]
[gibbering]
[Grover] Well, well…
Eevee?
Now, where did you come from?
-[Cerise] Mr. Grover.
-Huh?
-[Cerise laughing]
-If it isn't Cerise.
-It's been quite a while, sir.
-[Eevee gibbering]
It looks like you have my Eevee
in your net.
[chuckles]
I do, don't I? There.
[Eevee gibbers]
Eevee… What'll I do with you?
-[crackles]
-Huh?
[chiming]
Poli…
-It evolved.
-[Cerise] Hmm.
[Rotom Phone] Poliwhirl.
The Tadpole Pokémon. A Water type.
Poliwhirl can live on land
or in the water.
Its skin always feels slippery.
Staring at the swirl on its belly
can result in drowsiness.
You see, Chloe,
Mr. Grover takes good care of this forest.
He was always helping me out
back when I was a young child.
When you were a young child?
And he's still helping me
with my research now, too.
[laughs]
Truth is,
I'm really not doing all that much.
Nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you. My name's Chloe.
So you're Chloe Cerise?
-[Grover] What an excellent name.
-[chuckles]
[light music]
[munching]
The way you've raised this forest
is wonderful. Thank you.
[chuckles]
You're very kind.
It sure took its time getting this way.
Is that true? You can raise a forest?
Yes. The trees in this forest
were all planted by hand.
You see, back when your father
was just a child,
the trees weren't nearly this tall.
[Grover] Nor was there this much
of a variety of flowers and grasses.
-So, were there fewer Pokémon back then?
-Of course.
There weren't nearly
as many as there are now.
But even so, back then,
when I was a young child,
it was such a magical place.
[whimsical music]
[exclaims]
Bellsprout. Bellsprout. Bellsprout.
[chuckles]
[gasps]
That's Bellsprout.
It's the Flower Pokémon.
A Grass and Poison type.
They like hot areas with high humidity.
And when they extend their vines
to grab their food,
they're incredibly quick.
-Isn't that just amazing?
-Yeah, you bet it is.
And not just Pokémon.
The trees and grasses, you and me.
Everything's amazing.
Wait. I'm amazing?
Sure. The act of being alive is amazing.
[Young Cerise] Really?
So even Dad experienced
times like that, huh?
Well, I was very little.
About Parker's age.
And this Pokémon Professor
started out as that little tyke.
Time flies much faster
than we can imagine.
Oh.
Come to think of it.
There was the time when little Cerise
rescued a Clefairy.
Wow. I'd love to hear all about it.
[Cerise] I remember that day
like it was yesterday.
-[leaves rustle]
-Huh?
[Clefairy gibbering]
[exclaims]
[Clefairy screaming]
[Ash] Who's that Pokémon?
[warbles]
[inquisitive music]
Pika?
-Clefairy.
-Pika, pika.
Clefairy!
[panting]
[gibbering]
[crying]
Clefairy!
Huh?
[grumbling]
[gasps, grunts]
No, you don't!
I said no. I said no.
I said no. I said no.
No…
No bully. No!
[tense music]
[Beedrill gibbering]
-[gasps]
-[Clefairy gibbering]
"Clefairy. A Fairy Pokémon
and a Fairy type.
It's charming in both behavior and form."
-[Clefairy gibbers]
-[Young Cerise] Wow.
It's said that happiness
will come to anyone
who sees Clefairy dance under a full moon.
[Clefairy gibbers]
[Grover] Clefairy normally live
much deeper in the mountains.
Maybe it got lost and ended up here.
Clefairy? Are you really lost?
[Young Cerise] Don't worry. It'll be okay.
Clefairy?
[Cerise] From then on,
I wanted to see Clefairy so much,
I'd run to the forest every day.
[Young Cerise] Here.
Clefairy?
[Cerise]
And when Clefairy was able to walk,
we'd walk through the forest together.
[Young Cerise]
See? They're cherry blossoms.
Aren't they pretty?
Their fruit's the same color as my name.
Clefairy.
[Young Cerise] And that's why
I just love cherry blossoms.
[Clefairy singing]
[Young Cerise laughs]
[both singing]
That's one of Clefairy's moves,
called Metronome.
[Grover] It's unpredictable,
so I wouldn't put…
[Young Cerise yelps]
…and I was just about to warn you
to be careful.
[Young Cerise yelping]
[Cerise] The days I spent with Clefairy
were so much fun.
But eventually…
Clefairy.
…the day came when we had to part.
Clefairy…
[crying]
[somber music]
Oh, Clefairy.
[crying]
[Young Cerise weeping]
Clefairy…
-Clefairy.
-Huh? Clefairy?
[singing]
Huh?
Clefairy, Clefairy.
[whimsical music]
[both gasp softly]
Wow, it's Petal Blizzard.
Look at all the cherry blossoms.
[whimsical music continues]
Thanks, Clefairy. That's so…
[gasps]
[sobs]
[gasps]
[Grover] That was its way
of thanking you back.
No doubt it was Clefairy.
[soft chuckle]
Say, I wonder
what that Clefairy's doing right now.
Yeah. I really hope it's okay.
I'm positive that it is.
You know what? You're right.
[sips]
Now then, why don't we head
to the campsite?
[gentle music]
-[Eevee gibbers]
-[both gasp]
-[Chloe] Hey, you're here.
-[Parker] Sorry, we're late.
[all] Ah… mm.
[all] It's so tasty.
[gentle music]
[all laughing]
[Chloe] Beautiful.
The ol' Moon's so big and bright tonight.
[Yamper gibbers]
-Huh? Eevee?
-What, Yamper?
-I wonder what's got their attention.
-Shh.
-Huh?
-Huh?
-I hear it.
-You hear what?
I can't believe it.
Could it be that our family
is incredibly lucky this time?
[all gasp]
[warbling]
Eevee?
[distant singing]
Those voices…
-[Chloe] Clefairy?
-Right.
Seeing that it happens
to be a full moon tonight,
I was wondering.
[Eevee panting]
-Eevee?
-Yamper.
[suspenseful music]
On the night of a full moon,
Clefairy get together and dance,
and they might have an evolution ceremony.
[Cerise] Using Moon Stones.
There's a legend that says,
if you see Clefairy dance,
you'll find true happiness.
This is a very important ceremony
for them.
Let's watch, but don't disturb them.
-[all] Mm-hmm.
-[Eevee and Yamper gibber]
[Cerise] Now, let's go.
[Clefairy singing]
[gasps]
[singing continues]
[chimes]
[singing continues]
Eevee…
-Looks like there's one Clefable.
-Huh?
[singing continues]
Clefable.
[soft gasp]
[wind blows]
-What's going on?
-Golbat.
Right in the middle of the ceremony, too.
How dare they try to ruin it?
[grunts]
[screams]
They're coming back.
-[Eevee gibbering]
-[all gasp]
[screams]
[suspenseful music]
Eevee…
[Clefable gasps]
Eevee.
-Eevee!
-[Chloe] Mm. Got it.
Eevee. Psychic, let's go.
[Pokémon yell]
[whimsical music]
-Clefable.
-Eevee.
Huh? Look at 'em.
[all singing]
[Clefable gibbers]
Clefable.
[both gibber]
-[chimes]
-[both gasp]
[both gibber]
[gibbering continues]
-[all gasp]
-Clefable.
Thank you so much
for showing us the ceremony.
Clefable.
[chimes]
Clefable.
Clefable.
[singing]
Huh?
[laughs]
[both singing]
[singing along]
-[all singing]
-Huh? Oh.
[singing along]
[gibbers]
[upbeat music]
[all gasp]
Eevee…
[upbeat music continues]
[soft gasp]
Huh? Oh…
Hey, Dad, do you think
that Clefable could have been…
[gasps]
Yes.
[whimsical music]
[chimes]
-[Cerise] Can't sleep either?
-Huh?
[Chloe] Yeah.
-Eevee?
-[Cerise] Oh, sorry, Eevee.
I guess I woke you.
Those evolving Clefairy
were beautiful, weren't they?
[Chloe] So pretty and mystifying and warm.
You know what, I think I have
a better understanding
about what you were saying before
that there are as many reasons
as there are Pokémon.
And how each one is completely unique.
That's right.
Were you happy to have seen
that Clefairy again?
It goes way beyond being happy.
I experienced what I call a miracle
and I want even more
for people and Pokémon to be closer.
I'd like to help create a world
where we can all get along.
And that's the reason why
I'll keep researching.
This just renewed my resolve.
Oh. Uh…
You know what, Dad?
You're really kind of cool.
Uh… Oh, you really think so?
Yeah. You're nothing like your usual self.
Well, what do you know?
But I'll take it.
Being cool for even one day.
-[Chloe] Hey, Dad?
-[Cerise] Hmm?
Truth is, I want to learn a lot more
about Pokémon Evolution.
[Cerise gasps]
[Chloe] And I don't mean that
just for Eevee's sake,
although that's part of it, too.
But I decided I really want to know
a whole lot more about it for myself.
All right.
Put one foot
in front of the other with Eevee.
[Cerise] Now, that doesn't mean
there will only be
a single path ahead of you.
So whatever path you choose,
your emotions will give you the answers.
See how you feel, and then choose
the next path to follow.
-After all, the possibilities for you are…
-Many?
Many doesn't even begin to cover it.
They're infinite.
[gasps]
Infinite possibilities?
I'm so excited.
[Eevee snoring]
[Chloe] Eevee, we are gonna be together
for a long, long time,
so let's stay close friends.
[narrator] Today's experiences,
they've been deeply
and permanently etched in Chloe's heart.
And now, just slightly more certain
of their footing along their path,
Chloe and Eevee plan to walk
firmly forward together,
as the journey continues.
[closing theme music]
