(Suddenly, someone calls out.)
???: "Hey! Hey, there!"
(Everyone turns to see a young girl riding on a bike, and she screeches to a stop on her bicycle.)
(She has purple hair, a long sleeve shirt, and orange boots.)
(The young girl asks.)
???: "You didn't happen to see Gligarman by any chance, did you?"
Misty: "Yeah, he was just here."
(Misty says.)
Mew: "And left before you arrived."
(Mew adds.)
(Then the girl apologizes.)
???: "Oh, I'm so sorry. I hope he didn't cause too much trouble."
Misty: "He didn't cause any trouble. In fact, he saved my Togepi and Pichu from drowning."
(Misty says.)
???: "Thank goodness."
(The young lady says.)
(Brock soon goes all lovestruck again and takes her hand.)
Brock: "Speaking of goodness, I think you're great. What's your name?"
Latoya: "Uhhhh, it's Latoya."
(The girl introduces herself.)
Brock: "I'm Brock."
(Brock says and takes the girl's hand.)
Latoya: "Could you let go of my hand?"
(Latoya asks.)
(But Brock says.)
Brock: "I'll let go of your hand if you let me hold onto your heart forever and ever and ever and..."
(Misty then grabs Brock's ear and tugs him away.)
Misty: "Keep talking like that and Gligarman's gonna have to come and rescue you."
(Mew approaches Latoya and says.)
Mew: "You seem pretty interested in this Gligarman guy. Do you know him or something?"
Latoya: "Well, sort of."
(Latoya answers.)
(Then Jen asks.)
Jen: "Is he really a superhero like he says he is?"
Latoya: "I'm not sure there's a clear cut answer to that question. The only thing I can say for sure is he sometimes believes he's a real superhero."
(Latoya answers.)
Tomo: "Do you know Gligar-Man's true identity?"
(Tomo asks.)
(But Latoya says.)
Latoya: "I'm sorry. I've probably said too much already. I've really gotta go!"
(Then she dashes off on her bike, leaving the group behind.)
Mew: "Seems like she's hiding something."
(Mew says.)
Brock: "She is."
(Brock says, still blushing and having a funny face.)
Brock: "She's hiding feelings of love for her little Brocky-poo!
(Tomo bluntly says.)
Tomo: "The only feeling she's hiding is the feeling that you're an absolute nut-case."
(Jen and the Pokemon nod in reply.)
(Later, Mew and the others enter the town both Gligarman and Latoya headed to.)
(Once in the town, they find that Gligar is their local hero.)
(Everyone calls out for sales like toys, souvenirs, and such.)
(Suddenly, Brock notices something and calls out.)
Brock: "Hey, look up there!"
(Everyone looks up to see the building has the same Gligar symbol like the one on the whistle.)
Brock: "Just like on the whistle!"
(Brock says.)
(Mew walks to one of the people and asks.)
Mew: "Is Gligarman really such a big deal here?"
male employee: "The biggest!"
(A male employee says.)
(Then the female employee says.)
female employee: "If you're looking for anything Gligarman, you came to the right place."
(Soon, another employee begins to push them into the store.)
another employee: "Come on, don't be shy! Step right in and leave the crowd. Star shopping."
(Soon enough, Mew and her friends enter the store to find Gligarman and Gligar products everywhere.)
(Suddenly, a familiar voice asks.)
???: "May I help you find something?"
(Brock recognizes the voice.)
Brock: "I know that voice! I'm sure I do!"
(Soon, everyone looks to see Latoya at the register.)
(Seeing the group, Latoya says.)
Latoya: "Oh! Nice to see you again."
(And Brock rushes over.)
Brock: "Latoya! I can't believe it! What a coincidence! Seems like we haven't seen each other in ages!"
Misty: "It must be at least fifteen minutes."
(Misty says.)
(Then Mew says.)
Mew: "Latoya, there's still a lot of things I want to know about Gligarman."
(Suddenly, someone says.)
???: "I'll tell you everything about Gligarman! Or almost everything."
(The group turns to see a grown man wearing a hat, a vest, button up shirt, jeans, and boots.)
(The man walks towards the kids with a smile.)
Latoya: "Dad!"
(Latoya says.)
(Then the man says.)
Mr. Parker: "I'm the proud owner of this toy store. Mr. Parker. And you're in luck, because it just so happens I know all there is to know about our hometown superhero, Gligarman."
Jen: "Who is Gligarman?"
(Jen asks.)
(Mr. Parker holds up a remote.)
Mr. Parker: "Rather then tell ya, I'll show ya."
(With a press of a button, a screen comes out.)
Mr. Parker: "This oughta give you a pretty good introduction to the world of Gligarman!"
(Mr. Parker says.)
(Soon, a projector begins to show the film featuring the hero.)
(The narrator of the film says.)
narrator: "Look! Up in the sky! Is it a Pidgeotto? A Dragonite! No! It's the crime fighting Pokemon superhero, Gligarman!"
(Mew and the others watch in amazement.)
(Soon, the movie shows a giant insect in the city.)
(The narrator says.)
narrator: "Gligarman and Gligar, use your Gligar Kick!"
Gligarman: "Gligar!"
(Gligarman calls out.)
(Then with one kick, the giant monster bug falls down a cliff and is destroyed.)
(Narrator says.)
Narrator: "Once again, justice triumphs, thanks to Gligarman!"
(Soon, the film ends.)
Mr. Parkers: "I guess it's pretty easy to see why Gligarman's so popular here."
(Mr. Parkers says.)
(Then Tomo asks.)
Tomo: "How come the Gligarman we saw in the woods didn't look like the one we saw in the movie?"
(Mr. Parker calms himself.)
Mr. Parker: "Ahem, the movie was made several years ago."
Mew: "How many? Twenty?"
(Mew asks.)
(Soon, Mr. Parker begins to give the group some stuff.)
Mr. Parker: "Here, have a Gligarman cookie, and a Gligarman cape and a Gligarman mask. There. Just like the real Gligarman."
(Just then, Togepi tugs on Mr. Parker's pants getting his attention.)
(Soon, Togepi and Pichu perform the same pose.)
(Suddenly, Misty has her suspicions.)
Misty: "I've got a sneaking suspicion that you're the real Gligarman."
(Mr. Parker flinches.)
Mr. Parker: "That's utterly ridiculous, Misty! How in the world would you ever get the idea that I'm Gligarman?"
Misty: "Well, for one thing, Gligarman's the only person in town who knows my name's Misty."
(Misty says.)
Tomo: "And you sound like him."
(Tomo says.)
(Mr. Parker starts to get nervous.)
(Then, Mew removes his hat and puts the Gligarman mask on him.)
(Seeing him with the mask, they realize that it's true.)
Jen: "It really is you!"
(Jen says, surprised.)
(Brock then takes Mr. Parker's hand.)
Brock: "Hey, it's an honor to meet you, Mr. Gligarman. My name's Brock and I'm a super fan of yours and I was wondering if I could ask your super daughter for a super date."
(Then Tomo asks.)
Tomo: "Hey, Gligarman, do you have superpowers and super cool equipment and a super secret Gligar Cave you live in?"
Mr. Parker: "You can't let anyone know Gligarman's true identity, do you hear me? You must keep my secret."
(Mr. Parker says.)
(Meanwhile, Team Rocket watches them from outside, and has heard the conversation.)
Meowth: "So, Gligarman ain't a superhero, he's a guy who owns a toy store."
(Meowth says.)
(Then James says.)
James: "That shopkeeper made fools out of everybody!"
Jessie: "We've got to do something to punish this imposter!"
(Jessie says.)
Jessie: "We must fight to uphold the integrity of costumed action figures everywhere! Fellow supervillains, join forces with me to unmask this charlatan!"
James: "Supervillains? I don't see any supervillains."
(James says, confused.)
(Meowth then asks.)
Meowth: "Who you talking to, Jess?"
(Jessie furiously says.)
Jessie: "I'm talking to you! You're the supervillains!"
James and Meowth: "We didn't know that!"
(James and Meowth panic and soon find themselves dressed as Metopods.)
Jessie: "If toy boy wants to play superhero, fine. Let's see how he handles some Team Rocket super trouble."
(Jessie says and laughs wickedly.)
