(sweatdropping, then clearing throat) Ah. Cyrus believed that taking control of Dialga and Palkia would enable him and his subordinates to bring forth a "new world order" and thereby destroy the Pokémon world, just as Ahmadinejad and his associates believed that they could unleash enough chaos in the Middle East to accelerate the Hidden Imam's emergence. Enlisting Pokémon Hunter J to capture the Lake Guardians amplified Team Galactic's level of ruthlessness still further in my estimation, and I found Ash and Dawn a perfect contrast to this evil. You won't have to guess how quickly I allied with the Pearlshippers as that realization sank into my mind, and I still recall a certain rendition of "High Touch" that I compiled myself.:
Dawn: *We fight, make up, and fight once again, but it’s true.
I have so many things that I want to tell you.
This most steadfastly: “Many thanks for staying with me.”.*
Ash: *As we roll along, our minds stay as a great team.
No matter what, we will reach up to our dreams.
Through it all, clearly, I’m happy to see you with me.*
Dawn: *We’re partners.*
Ash: *And great friends.*
Dawn: *I’ll push and cheer you on.*
Ash: *I’ll pull you until the end.*
Both: *Harmony stands strong between us in the sun. It’s our destiny.
As we win together, let’s high-five!
If we’re knocked down, then we can bounce back and thrive!
We can teach each other.*
Ash: *And we’ll defend this world of magic truly. Go, go, go.*
Both: *As we won together, let’s high-five!
We faced down our best opponents and thrived!
We can teach each other.*
Ash: *And we’ll go further than our eyes can now see. Go, go, go.*
Both: *Go, go, go. Go, go, go!*
