DIAZ:....WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?.

DITTO:I MEAN. IF SOMETHING GO WRONG AND ONE OF US DIED, DON'T YOUR THINK WE SHOULD SAY SOMETHING TO EACH OTHER BY THEN?

BRAIXEN:DO YOU WANT US TO SAY OUR LAST WORDS?

DITTO:SHORT IF YOUR PREFER. BUT I THINK IT'S WORTH IT, I SAY, HOW LIKELY IS IT THAT WE ARE ALL STILL ALIVE AFTER THIS?

DIAZ:...I-

DITTO:HEY DIAZ. YOU SHOULD NOT SAY ANYTHING IF YOU PREFER.

DIAZ:WHAT?.

DITTO:DIAZ, YOU ARE IMPORTANT HERE. YOU ARE THE FUTURE OF THE KINGDOM, OBVIOUSLY WE WILL NOT LET THEM KILL YOU.

DIAZ: ... BUT ... WHAT ABOUT YOUR?.

DITTO:DIAZ I AM A DITTO. WE USUALLY LIVE LONG ENOUGH TO MATE HALF A TOWN. BRAIXEN IS YOUR FRIEND AND EVERYTHING, THAT'S WHY SHE WOULD GIVE HER LIFE FOR YOU TO LIVE.

BRAIXEN:....IT'S TRUE.

DITTO:AND MEWTWO LOVES YOU.

MEWTWO:I DON'T LOVE HIM!.

DITTO:...DO YOU HATE DIAZ?.

MEWTWO:....I WOULD ALSO GIVE MY LIFE FOR YOU, HAPPY?!.

DIAZ:....

DITTO:WELL, ME FIRST. MEWTWO, DESPITE YOUR NEGATIVE AND SLIGHTLY GRUMPY ATTITUDE, I'M GLAD TO FINALLY MEET MY BEST BROTHER.

MEWTWO:.....

DITTO:BRAIXEN. I HONESTLY INTENDED TO MATE WITH YOU WHEN I MET YOU.

BRAIXEN: WHAT ?.

DITTO: BUT I'M GLAD I DIDN'T, YOU'RE A GREAT FRIEND.

BRAIXEN:....

DITTO:DIAZ....OH ARCEUS.

DIAZ:....

DITTO:DIAZ. WHEN WE MET I MUST ADMIT THAT I WANTED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU....BUT I MUST ADMIT....THAT YOU WERE SOMEONE THAT I LIKED. I KNOW THAT I AM NOT USUALLY OPEN IN MANY THINGS. BUT YOU ARE MY BEST FRIEND. NOT MANY MET WITH ME, YOU KNOW "TO DITTEAR", BUT YOU KEPT MEETING WITH ME, EVEN WHEN I STOPPED TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOU....THANKS DIAZ. FOR BEING MY MOST FAITHFUL FRIEND.

DIAZ:....

DITTO:...OKAY. IT'S YOUR TURN MEWTWO.

MEWTWO:WHAT?.

DITTO:COME ON. SAY NICE THINGS ABOUT ME.

MEWTWO:.....(SIGH) DITTO...YOU ARE....DISGUSTING. YOU ARE ANNOYING, IRRITATING, UNBEARABLE AND JUST MEETING YOU MAKES MY LIFE IMPOSSIBLE.

DITTO:....I WAS REFERRING TO THINGS THAT YOU LIKE ABOUT ME.

MEWTWO:....I SAID THAT.

DITTO:....I LOVE YOU BROTHER.

MEWTWO:I HATE YOU.....BROTHER.

DITTO:(SHOCK)! HE SAID IT, HE SAID IT!

AND STEPS ON IT.

MEWTWO:...BRAIXEN.....YES....YOU ARE NICE AND I LOVE YOU.

BRAIXEN:...THANK YOU?.

MEWTWO:.....DIAZ.

DIAZ:....

MEWTWO: .... WHEN I MET YOU .... I HATED YOU. YOUR KINGDOM PROVOKED MY SHAME, MY MOCKERY, EVERYTHING. I LOST THE RESPECT OF MANY LEGENDARIES, AND NOBODY HAD RESPECT FOR ME...AND YOU, AT THE SAME TIME, DECIDED TO TALK TO ME AND SOCIALIZE WITH ME, KNOWING THAT I DESPISED YOU...I HATE TO ADMIT IT...BEING IN THE POSITION OF THE SIMPLE POKÉMON MADE ME SEE THE REALITY OF EVERYTHING...NO LEGENDARY TRIED TO HELP ME WHEN I FINISHED HERE ... AND YOU ... ALWAYS AGREED WITH ME WHEN I WANTED IT. YOU ALL TREATED ME WELL, DESPITE YOUR INSOLENCE....AND.....I CAN DO IT.....AND IF I HAD TO LIVE THE REST OF MY LIFE AS A MOCKERY....I'D RATHER IT BE THAT WAY. KNOWING AT LEAST THAT MY FRIENDS WILL CONTINUE.....LOVING ME.

AND MEWTWO CRIES.

DITTO:OH, HE'S CRYING.

MEWTWO:SHUT UP BROTHER!...MY GOD....AND NOW I SAY THINGS THAT THE SIMPLE SAY.

DITTO:YOU SAID "MY GOD" AS DIAZ SAYS.

MEWTWO:WHO SAYS "MY GOD"?

DIAZ:...THANKS MEWTWO.

DITTO:...GOOD. BRAIXEN.

BRAIXEN:....

DIAZ:...

BRAIXEN:WHEN I MET YOU...IT WAS THE BEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE...I HAD NEVER BEEN WITH SOMEONE FAMOUS...WHEN I SPOKE TO YOU AGAIN I FELT HAPPY, BECAUSE IT MEANT THAT I COULD GET TOGETHER AND TALK TO YOU...I LEARNED A LOT FROM YOU. I SAW THINGS THAT I NEVER THOUGHT SOMEONE LIKE YOU HAD. YOUR TENDER MOMENTS, THE FUNNY ONES AND THE HILARIOUS ONES...WHEN I'M WITH YOU I FEEL HAPPY, WANTING TO BE BY YOUR SIDE ALWAYS...I KNOW WE'VE BEEN THROUGH A LOT TOGETHER, MANY OUTINGS, SLEEPOVERS, ETC...AND I MUST ADMIT THAT IF THEY HAD TOLD ME THAT I WOULD BE FRIENDS WITH SOMEONE LIKE YOU....I WOULD THINK THEY WERE PLAYING A JOKE ON ME...EVEN SO....THANK YOU AND....I LOVE YOU.

DIAZ:....

DITTO:GUOU...I NEVER THOUGHT YOU FELT THAT ABOUT ME.

BRAIXEN AND DIAZ:...HUH?.

DITTO:OH GOD, MY TEARS FALL...AND I SAID THE SAME THING AS DIAZ SAYS "GOD"....OKAY. NOW IT'S MEWTWO AND DIAZ TURN.

BRAIXEN:....
