(The episode begins with Kip and Sue entering the baseball court which is the diamond stadium)
Kip: Oh I just love coming here to a baseball park! It's our anniversary of when we first married each other and got our pet hamster of our own.
Sue: I couldn't agree more. It was the first time since our pet Hamster Cappy was born in. Huh?
Kip: What is it, Sue?
Sue: I saw something shiny! (They saw a sky blue Chaos Emerald lying down on the court seat)
Kip: (Picks it up) Sure is pretty. Somebody must have left this down the baseball park.
Sue: Oh Cappy would love this for his first jewel collection! (We come toward Tails inside the Tornado Ham-Ham Plane 3000 heading to diamond stadium)
Tails: The Tornado Ham-Ham Plane 3000 seems to be running really great since we installed the Chaos Emerald. This has just to be about the smoothest flight I've ever been on. Huh? [The Chaos Emerald starts glowing.] I think it's picked up on something. Ahh! [The Tornado Ham-Ham Plane 3000 starts shaking uncontrollably.] I can't control it. Something's pulling us off-course. Maybe it's another Chaos Emerald. Ergh!
Kip and Sue: Stop! Stop!
Tails: Better go down there. [Tails walks into Diamond Stadium and is amazed by its views. He sees Kip and Sue trying to operate a mowing vehicle.] Excuse me, sir! Hello? Yo!
Kip and Sue: (Gasps)
Tails: Huh, I'm sorry. It's just that I'm in my plane and the Chaos Emerald started glowing and- don't worry mister. I won't hurt ya.
Kip: Sure is some story, little fella. Never would've guessed that was you flying that plane up there.
Tails: I'm sorry if I frightened you just now, sir. I've never seen a stadium as pretty as this before. You know, the grass is practically glowing!
Kip: Thanks for the compliment. Lots of folks say that turf here in Diamond Stadium is the best in the world, which makes me happy because I've been the groundskeeper in Diamond for 30 years.
Tails: 30 years?
Kip: You bet! Only I'm afraid that today's my last day here at the ol' place. You see, the Diamond's manager who wants to build an indoors stadium with artificial turf so this place is gonna be demolished. I'll tell you, leaving this place behind feels like the end of an era. By the way, little fella, did you mention something about an emerald?
Tails: Yeah. [pulls out the Chaos Emerald] See, I'm looking for an emerald just like this one. It's called a "Chaos Emerald".
Kip: A what? Would this be what you're looking for?
Tails: Ah. A Chaos Emerald!
Kip: Sue and I saw it laying next to the dumpster a couple of nights ago. Wasn't sure of what it was.
[The two Chaos Emeralds start glowing. A bright light then shoots straight up into the night sky.]
Civilians: What is this? Is this magic?
Knuckles: I know that light.
Decoe: Dr. Eggman! Dr. Eggman! You might want to take a look at this, sir!
Dr. Eggman: What is that light?
Decoe: It appears to be coming from the baseball stadium!
Dr. Eggman: A stadium, you say? Fascinating! [Opens a drawer and pulls out a ball.] I have a feeling that there's an emerald out in that Diamond!
(Then we cut to the theme song of Hamtaro)
It's Hamtaro time!
(Kushi-kushi-ticky-ticky WOO!)
Hamtaro! When we work together it's much better!
My best friend! We like sunflower seeds. . .khrrmp khrrmp khrrmp.
My Ham-Hams! If she heads for trouble, we won't let her!
Hamtaro!
Little Hamsters, Big Adventures!
Laura's gone to school, let's go to our Ham-Ham Clubhouse!
We can fix their troubles just be quiet as a mouse.
Watch out for those cats, you know they're smarter than you think.
But if we work together, we can make their plans sink!
Hamtaro!
Snoozer, Howdy, Penelope, Panda, My best friends!
Oxnard, Bijou, Cappy, Maxwell, My Ham-Hams!
Dexter, Boss, Pashmina, Jingle, Hamtaro!
Little Hamsters, Big Adventures!
(Hamtaro's verse) 'scuse me while I work out, gotta run on my wheel. WHEEEEEEE!
Hamtaro! Hamtaro's here to help you!
Hamtaro! Hamtaro's team is for you!
HAMTARO!! Hehehe.
Tittle: "SONIC AND HAMTARO" (Now we cut to the kitchen inside Kana's house home of the Iwatas where Laura and Kana are using good manners with Kana's parents even Sonic and the others)
Cindy: Now, let's start with the first course. Which knife and fork do we use?
Amy: Um... these?
Cream: I agree.
Cheese: Chao chao!
Cindy: Right. You're such smart children and what good manners!
Sonic: I don't see why do we need to learn all this etiquette baloney in the first place.
Laura: My mom says it's important to learn good manners so we can eat properly.
Sonic: Well I've never learned anything about manners and I've been eating my whole life.
Conrad: Sonic, try to use your fruit knife.
Kana: I wonder what's keeping Tails. He should be back by now.
Bokkun: [Laughs.] Sorry, I didn't know it was meal time. But Dr. Eggman's got a real important message for ya!
Sonic: Argh, not again!
Conrad: How dare you barge in on us like this! You need to learn some manners.
Bokkun: Eh, that's what you say!
[The message plays.]
Dr. Eggman: Good evening, Sonic. I suggest you take a look out the window.
Sonic: Window?!
[Sonic opens a window.]
Kana: What is it?
Cream: The light's coming from a Chaos Emerald!
Laura: Is she right?
Sonic: You're half-right, Cream, but that's not just one Chaos Emerald.
Dr. Eggman: Correct. We both want those emeralds but why not be good sports about it? That's why I suggest that you suite up, and meet me over at the Diamond Stadium.
Conrad: Diamond Stadium?!
Kana: What for?
Dr. Eggman: I challenge you and your friends to a game of winner-take-all baseball! [Laughs.] And bring all the little rodents along with you too. This is gonna be the hardest baseball game of Super Sluggers we ever tried to plan!
Bokkun: You guys might be a little rusty, so how about some batting practice?
Sonic: Uh oh...
[Bokkun starts batting numerous balls at Sonic and co. while they try to avoid them.]
Cindy: [Picks up Bokkun] You got a decent swing, but you keep hitting it foul! [Throws Bokkun out.]
Laura: What kind of pitch was that?
Kana: I think that was a screwball.
Sonic: We have to get to that stadium!
[Sonic and the others head towards the stadium.]
Kip: What just happened there little fella?
Tails: That always happens when Chaos Emeralds come together. I just hope that one person didn't see it-
Dr. Eggman: Heh-heh-heh! Well, if it isn't my foxy high-flying friend!
Tails: Dr. Eggman!
Dr. Eggman: [Laughs and looks around in wonder.] Where's the rest of your team? It's almost game time!
Tails: Forget it! You want the Chaos Emeralds but I won't give 'em to ya!
Dr. Eggman: Could it be that Sonic and his pals are choosing to forfeit? I must say that's very un-sportsman like of them. If there's one thing I hate more than a meddling hedgehog, it's a quitter!
Tails: I don't get it. What are you talking about?
Dr. Eggman: If they won't play ball with me, I still win!
[The spike at the end of the Egg Mobile transforms into a hand and charges at Tails but the fox dodges it.]
Sue: Wh-what's going on here, anyway?
[The hand grabs the Chaos Emerald that Kip is holding.]
Tails: Oh no, he's got the emerald!
Dr. Eggman: Heh-heh, one down, one to go! Hand it over! I won it fair and square. Now give me that second emerald or I'll have to use a "forced" play!
Tails: I'd like to see you try!
[The hand tries to grab Tails but Knuckles arrives and smashes the hand.]
Knuckles: That was close, right?
Tails: Knuckles! Am I glad to see you!
Knuckles: Well look who it is. I like your costume.
Dr. Eggman: You again, and what brings you here? Doing Sonic's dirty work?
Knuckles: Let's get out of here, Tails.
Tails: Okay. (Then, Hamtaro, Oxnard, Boss, Bijou, Pashmina, Penelope, Howdy, Dexter, Snoozer, Maxwell, Panda, Sandy, Cappy and Stan along with Elder Ham and Auntie Viv came by running and saw Dr. Eggman)
Elder Ham: So... This is the famous Dr. Eggman is it?
Auntie Viv: Tan my fur. Always doing something no good actually.
Hamtaro: Good thing we brought along Sonic and the others to help out.
Sonic: [Runs past the duo in the stadium] Hey, how is it going, Knuckles?
Dr. Eggman: Well, if isn't Sonic. I thought you weren't going to show up so I took one of the emeralds and I was just collecting the second. [Chuckles] But now that you're here, maybe we can play ball.
Sonic: Alright, just give us back that Chaos Emerald.
Dr. Eggman: All in good times, my speedy little opponent but first, let me introduce you to our fellow teammates.
Sonic: Huh?
[A flying saucer appears and shines a bright light at the ground emerging numerous E-21 Ballios robots out of it.]
Cream: They're scaring me, Amy.
Amy: It's okay.
Dr. Eggman: Not too shabby, eh? Now why don't we knock off the pre-game ceremonies and get to the reason that we're all here. It's now game time!
Decoe and Bocoe: Let's play ball!
Tails: You can't have your game here!
Elder Ham: Wait. It just so happens that your ol' ham is a big baseball fan from way back!
Tails: Huh?
Auntie Viv: A nice, friendly game of baseball. Sounds good to me.
Dr. Eggman: (Laughs) Ah, you're Elder Ham and Auntie Viv are you? Well, it's a great pleasure to finally meet you. A ball game must sound most exciting after being cooped up in that laboratory of yours day after day!
Tails: Hey, if you want to have a ball game, then you have to have it some place else! Isn't anybody listening to me?
Elder Ham: Well Eggman, if the others are up-court, I will be more than happy to accept your challenge!
Tails: But you can't have your game here, or you're going to ruin all the beautiful turf!
Decoe: What's that loudmouth fox getting out of shape for?
Bocoe: Who knows?
Tails: Hey! I'll let you know that this stadium means a lot to my friend!
Kip: It's okay, Tails.
Tails: Huh?
Kip: Only a matter of time before it's demolished anyway.
Auntie Viv: (To Kip and Sue) Have we seen you somewhere?
Cappy: Ahh!! Kip and Sue, what are you doing here?
Sue: IS that our little Cappy along with the other hamsters!?
Kip: It is. And he can talk! You know we was wondering who was the head ground keeper around this place.
Cappy: I thought you two look familiar.
Pashmina: We saw you at the shop today on television
Penelope: Ookyoo!
Bijou: You were good friends with the owner of the Diamond Elmer Johnson. Yes?
Hamtaro; Wow, you know him?
Kip: Elmer and I do talk much all the time!
Dexter: I've seen him on T.V. before back at my owner's shop.
Howdy: Me too!
Oxnard: [Cries.] This is such an honor to think that I get to play baseball on the world's greatest Diamond Stadium-
Dr. Eggman: Shut your blubbering and let's play baseball!
Amy: Okay!
Cream: How do we play?
Elder Ham: Alright everybody, time for the Chaos Emerald baseball Playoff-
Dr. Eggman: [Pushes Chuck aside] It's the first annual Eggman Intergalactic Baseball Challenge!
Knuckles: This is sad...
Laura: And totally embarrassing...
Conrad: (Counted every Hamster he sees) One, Two, Three, Four, Five, Six, Seven, Eight, Nine, Ten, Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen. Fourteen, Fifteen, Sixteen.
Sonic: Does anyone have to be on our team?
Cream: Hey, Amy, do we get to play too?
Amy: Don't see why not.
Cheese: Chao!!!
Conrad: Oh yeah!
Boss: Elder Ham, I don't think this baseball game is such a good idea.
Stan: What if that egg dude has got something up his sleeve?
Elder Ham: You maybe right, Ham-Hams. For all we know that guy could be using a couped bat.
Boss: That's not exactly what we meant!!
Sandy: I'll be on your team Knuckles if that's okay with you.
Maxwell: And I agree with Sandy. We'll all joined in with you.
Knuckles: Yeah right.
Howdy: (To Tails) I'll join ya, partner.
Tails: Really. You really want to join my team?
Howdy: How's about it? I can see we all agree on something.
Sonic: Well, Hamtaro which teammate are you going to be with?
Hamtaro: Hmm... Let's see. I'll decided! (Does the random dance) Eeny meeny miny moe! Who's got the chaos emerald! If I stop on which teammate I'm with, every hero is number one. (Stops at Sonic) There! Guess I'm on your team, Sonic!
Sonic: My team's getting bigger!
Oxnard: I'll be going with the Hedgehog.
Panda: Me too. Sonic is my fan.
Boss: I think Stan and I should be going on Knuckles' side.
Stan: Yep.
Sandy: I knew I shouldn't leave my brother behind.
Pashmina: We'll go with Amy if that okay with you guys. Ham-Girls always get to be with the girl.
Bijou: And Penelope will go with Cream and Cheese.
Penelope: Ookyoo!!
Tails: Alright, we have our own hamsters to be on our side!
Dexter and Cappy: We want to be on Tails' Team then! (Walks toward Tails)
Hamtaro: Okay Ham-Hams! Let's get this game started! Let us play the game of Sonic Super Sluggers!!!
Dr. Eggman: (Chuckles) Now let's decide which team will be the first to bat.
Knuckles: You can't be serious! You do know what will happen if Dr. Eggman wins, don't you? He won't be just winning the game, but the Chaos Emeralds too. If Eggman wins this game, it will be nothing but catastrophe for all of us.
Dr. Eggman: I'd say that's nothing but stinky thinking!
Snoozer: (Sighs) Why ruining everyone's fun?
Amy: Come on, Knuckles. Don't you wanna play?
Knuckles: Huh?
Cream: Don't be chicken!
Knuckles: Me!? Chicken?!
Conrad: Perhaps Mr. Knuckles is simply afraid to play a game of baseball!
Knuckles: Afraid?! I'm not afraid of everything!
Sonic: Great! Then you'll play huh?
Knuckles: Alright! You asked for it! You want a team player, I'll give you a team player! Let's get this game on!
All Ham-Hams: YEAH!!!!!!!!!!! (Scene fades to black)
Men Chorus: Gotta go faster faster faster faster' Sonic X! (Scene fades back to where everybody is ready to play baseball)
Decoe: Let's play ball!
Laura: Bring it on!
[Ballios pitcher throws the ball at a superfast speed.]
Decoe: Strike 1.
Laura: Huh?!
[Sonic Whistles]
Decoe: [Ballios pitcher pitches.] Strike 2. [Pitches again.] Strike 3, one out.
Laura: [Walks off.] How could anybody hit a ball that fast?
Dr. Eggman: [Laughs.] Loser! Okay boys, send in the next sucker.
[Tails, Howdy, Dexter and Cappy steps up into the plate.]
Tails: It's probably a fast ball!
[The E-21 Ballios pitcher stretches its arm across the range and flicks the ball to the E-21 Ballios catcher.]
Decoe: Strike 1.
Tails: Hey umpire, that's not fair!
Howdy: What kind of baseball game is this!?! That's cheating!
Dexter: I agree with Howdy!
Decoe: What do you want? It's not my fault, he's got long arms.
Amy: Give me your best pitch, ball boy! [Ballios pitcher pitches the ball.] I've got it!
[Amy strikes the ball flying high. Sonic's team cheers on.]
Knuckles: We might not lose after all.
[A Ballios fielder throws another Ballios fielder into the air and catches it.]
Decoe: She's out!
Amy: Huh?! But I thought... [Dr. Eggman laughs.] Now I'll show you what I can do. I'm a much better pitcher anyway. [Throws the ball and strikes at the Ballios batter. The robot walks off.] Uh, sorry about that!
[Amy pitches and the batting Ballios misses while one of the other Ballios robots starts running on the field to the base where Tails is. It extends its legs to leap over a wide distance onto the base.]
Decoe: Safe.
Tails: Losing isn't fun...
Cappy: Tell me about it. Some of us Ham-hams don't know how to play this game. We're too small.
[The ball is thrown and the Ballios batter strikes the ball away.]
Dr. Eggman: And it's out of the park!
[Sonic runs to the top of the stadium scoreboard and catches it.]
Decoe: Home run. Home run.
Forrest: You caught it Sonic, but if it's outside the fence, it doesn't count.
Sonic: Ugh! Who says we gotta play by the rules anyway?! Cut me some slack!
[The next inning begins with Amy batting a pitch which hits the Ballios pitcher, shattering it into pieces.]
Amy: Sorry, that's a hit!
[Knuckles bats the pitch, resulting in a home run.]
Decoe: Sad to say, Home run.
[Sonic's team cheers on.]
Scarlet: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is Scarlet Garcia with the live report from Diamond Stadium. There appears to be a most unusual baseball game happening right this moment. The notorious Dr. Eggman and the team of robots are playing a game between Sonic and friends here at the stadium, the soon-to-be former home of the Diamonds. This is certain to become sports history. This is Scarlet Garcia reporting. Stay tuned to SSTV for continuing coverage for this momentous game.
Forrest: We're closing in on them! Now let's give it our best shot! Conrad!
Conrad: Yes, Forrest.
Forrest: I'm putting you a pitch hitter for you.
Conrad: Huh?
Forrest: Cheese and Penelope.
Cheese: (Excitement) Chaaaaaaaao!!
Penelope: Ookyoo! Ookyoo! Ookyoo! (She and Cheese took the base)
[The Ballios pitcher pitches with hesitation.]
Decoe: Ball 1. [Pitches again.] Ball 2. [Pitches again.] Ball 3. [Pitches again.] Ball 4. Take your base.
Cheese: Chaaaaaaaao!!! (Flies toward the first base)
Penelope: Ookyoooooooooo!! (Runs toward first base by saying ba da)
Dr. Eggman: Grr... you big loser! You call yourself a pitcher?!
[Cream and Bijou steps into the field.]
Decoe: Play ball.
Cream: Oh Mr. Pitcher. Could you... maybe not throw the ball too hard? I've never played before.
Bijou: Oui, Just this once. (Ballios dropped the baseball on the field)
Decoe: Ball. Batter takes first base.
Cream: Thank you, Mr. Pitcher! (Runs toward first base)
Bijou: I did it. I did it, everyone! (Runs toward first base by saying ba-da)
All the Ham-Hams: (Cheers for Bijou)
Dr. Eggman: Grrrrr.... I oughta throw you out into a scrap heap!
[Knuckles hits another home-run shot.]
Forrest: Alright, Knuckles! Another home run!
Amy: That means we're tied!
Laura: (Gasps looks at the crowd) Look, everybody!
Kid: Hey you guys, hit it over this way!
Forrest: Huh?
Kip: Where all these people coming from?
[Sonic's turn to bat. He manages to get to first base.]
Dr. Eggman: Grr... you'd strike out that squirt or else!
[Laura steps into the field. Ballios pitcher pitches.]
Decoe: Strike 1.
Laura: Oh no. What if I let the whole team down?
Decoe: [Ballios pitcher pitches again.] Strike 2.
Sonic: Time out!
Laura: Huh?
Sonic: Hey, Laura! I know you can get a hit. There's nothing to it, Laura. All you got to do is concentrate.
Laura: That's easy for you to say. He's pitching so fast.
Sonic: So, he throws a couple of fastballs. You can't let that get you down, pal. Just keep on trying and don't give up. Now, get out there and do your best!
Laura: Okay.
Decoe: Play ball.
Laura: (Through her head) Sonic's right. I just have too keep trying.
[Ballios pitcher throws and Laura swings.]
Decoe: Strike 3.
Laura: At least I'd tried my best.
Forrest: Laura run!
[Laura sees a Ballios fielder running after the ball and proceeds to run. Sonic makes it to home base while Laura runs to first base.]
Decoe: Safe.
Laura: I did it! I got to first base!
[Sonic's team cheers Laura on. And so did the Ham-hams.]
Dr. Eggman: Oh yeah? Those bumbling clowns! They won't make a fool out of me! [Bocoe appears with a remote and Dr. Eggman presses a button on it. One of the Ballios robots has its head detach and attach onto Sonic's head.]
Sonic: What's that?
Dr. Eggman: Oh dear! My robot! It's malfunctioning! It will explode any minute now! Run Sonic! Hurry! Run away!
Hamtaro: What are we going to do, Sonic?
Sonic: He's trying to get us to forfeit the game! I've gotta get rid of this thing quick! [Runs around the stadium.] Hey, you're really hanging on!
Knuckles: Sonic!
Sonic: Huh?
Knuckles: Jump, Sonic! Hurry!
Sonic: Okay! [Sonic jumps into the air and Knuckles is charging towards the Ballios head.] Hey, watch it, will you?! [Knuckles knocks the head off Sonic and explodes in the air.] Thanks, you're a lifesaver!
Dr. Eggman: [Laughs.] You may have beaten me at baseball, but with these shiny new Chaos Emeralds stucked ever-so-safely in my pocket, I'm the real winner after all! Aren't I?! [Laughs and escapes.]
Amy: Now he has both the Chaos Emeralds.
[Crowd cheering.]
Scarlet: As you can see, there's been quite a turnout for this event. The game was, of course, the last to be played in this stadium. Could that be... (Roberto Arvelo appears)
Laura: It's Roberto!
All Ham-Hams: Heke?
Roberto: I was watching at it from home. I must say that that was a remarkable game. It's all thanks to you, Al and I- well Al, I can't help but think how much you've done for the Diamonds over the years and what a great friend you really...
Kip: Thank you.
Roberto: I'm thinking about moving the Diamond turf over to the new stadium intact. I sure could use your help.
Sue: Sure thing.
[The crowd cheers.]
Forrest: Well, we might have lost the Chaos Emerald, but I think we've learned an important lesson about working together. And I'm sure you'll agree that we'll be even stronger next time we meet Eggman.
THE END
[The Sonic X closing theme "Gotta Go Fast" (shortened) plays as the credits roll.]
