'''Dawn's Ambipom''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリのエテボース''' ''Hikari's Eteboth'') is the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to be captured by {{Ash}} in the [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|Battle Frontier saga]]. Much later, she was traded to {{an|Dawn}} in exchange for {{AP|Buizel}}.

==History==
===With Ash===
[[File:Ash Aipom.png|thumb|200px|left|As an Aipom]]
====Kanto Battle Frontier====
Ambipom was first seen as an Aipom in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong!]]'', worshiping a giant {{p|Slaking}} with several other mountain-dwelling Pokémon. She also stole [[Ash's hat]], much like [[Ash's Primeape]] did [[EP025|428 episodes earlier]], with a group of Aipom getting food to offer the Slaking. Later, Aipom joined the other Aipom, as well as several {{p|Mankey}}, {{p|Vigoroth}} and {{p|Slaking}}, to attack the giant Slaking, which turned out to be a mechanical robot made by {{TRT}}. She then helped in returning the stolen berries to {{ka|Taylor}}. Later, after Ash and his friends left Taylor's home, the group sees Ash's hat on a rock. After wondering who placed it there, they found out that it was Aipom, due to an apple and a flower she left with the hat. The group then continues their journey as Ash says Aipom is a cool Pokémon after all. Unknown to them, the happy Aipom was watching them from a nearby tree.

Aipom soon reappeared in the next episode, ''[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'', stealing the hats of the participants before making off with Ash's hat again.

In ''[[AG181|Thinning the Hoard]]'', due to her causing too much trouble, Ash attempted to catch her. After {{AP|Pikachu}} used {{m|Quick Attack}} to get Ash's hat back and {{m|Thunderbolt}} to weaken her more, she was still able to foil Ash's capture attempt.

In ''[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone]]'', as well as the previous episode, after watching {{an|May}} in the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], Aipom became thrilled with {{pkmn|battle|battling}} and challenged {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}} for a battle; as he won, Ash finally {{pkmn2|caught|captured}} her in front of a huge crowd.

In ''[[AG183|Aipom and Circumstance!]]'', Aipom became jealous of Pikachu's closeness to Ash. Aipom also seems to have a certain penchant for headgear; aside from taking Ash's and other participants' hats, Aipom wore a daisy chain on her head and put on a ceremonial crown that the locals had trouble getting off. The members of a crowd who wanted to crown, as well as Ash and his friends, attempted to remove the crown from her head so she would not become their king for a year. With the help of a [[Belue Berry]]'s sourness, the crown was finally taken off. Ash then hugged Aipom and told her not to get into trouble all the time. As Ash laughed a bit when he told her this, Aipom blushed.

[[File:Ash and Aipom.png|thumb|200px|left|Ash with Aipom]]
Aipom's gender was confirmed in the Japanese version of the said episode while Aipom was nearby gathering flowers. {{an|May}} said, 「エイパムやっぱり女の子ね？」 ''Aipom is a girl after all, isn't she?''. In [[DP048]], Dawn also explicitly calls Aipom a girl, and in the dub of ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies!]]'', both Aipom and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} are referred to as girls, confirming them to be female.

Aipom enjoys participating in [[Pokémon Contest]]s, but is also eager to battle. Her interest was first perked in ''[[AG181|Thinning the Hoard!]]'' where she took an interest in May's battle with [[Harley]]. Aipom also watched her battle with [[Drew]] before enticing Ash into catching her. While Ash had Aipom, she usually sat on his left shoulder when outside of her [[Poké Ball]], in contrast to Pikachu sitting on his right shoulder.

In order to bring back {{AP|Torkoal}} to battle {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}}'s {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Registeel}} in ''[[AG186|Overjoyed!]]'', Ash sent Aipom to {{an|Professor Oak}}, where Aipom had trouble adjusting to the new environment and Ash's absence, even attacking the Professor. However, after Ash's second defeat, Aipom returned.
====Sinnoh====
When Ash left for [[Sinnoh]], he wanted to leave all of his Pokémon but {{AP|Pikachu}} behind as he did when leaving for [[Hoenn]]. However, Aipom snuck aboard the boat he was traveling on to accompany him on his new journey. Aipom proved to be necessary as a backup; as soon as they arrived, Team Rocket kidnapped Pikachu, and Aipom helped find them. During her journey through Sinnoh, Aipom defeated {{AP|Paul's Chimchar|Infernape}} in battle and helped Ash capture his {{AP|Starly|Staraptor}}. Ash also used her in his first two [[Gym]] battles in the region.

In ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]'', Aipom entered her first Contest with Ash. They got through the [[Appeals round]] but lost the first battle round to [[Zoey]] and her {{TP|Zoey|Glameow}}. After the battle, Zoey suggested that Ash should let Dawn raise Aipom.

In ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow!]]'', Aipom put up a fight against [[Roark]]'s {{TP|Roark|Cranidos|Rampardos}} in Ash's first Gym match in [[Sinnoh]], but lost. In their rematch in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]'', she defeated {{p|Geodude}}.

In ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith!]]'', Aipom entered an unofficial Contest under [[Jessie]]'s command and won against [[Dawn's Pachirisu]].

She was used in Ash's second Sinnoh Gym Battle in ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]'' as well, going against [[Gardenia]]'s {{p|Roserade}}, which resulted in a victory, giving Ash his {{badge|Forest}}.

===With Dawn===
[[File:Dawn and Aipom.png|Dawn and Aipom|thumb|right|200px]]
In ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', Ash began the training for his next Gym battle in [[Veilstone City]]. However, {{AP|Dawn's Buizel|Buizel}} seemed to be more interested in Ash's battle training and thus couldn't set his mind on Dawn's training; meanwhile Ash's Aipom also had a problem in Ash's training because her style tended to be more {{pkmn|Contest}} oriented. Then Zoey proposed that Ash and Dawn trade them. After some soul-searching, the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s agreed, and the trade took place.

In ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'', Aipom managed to learn {{m|Double Hit}}. {{an|Brock}} told Dawn that Aipom would evolve soon. Later in the episode, when Dawn and Aipom were being attacked by a group of {{p|Unown}}, Aipom jumped in and evolved into {{p|Ambipom}}.

In ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', Dawn used Ambipom in her appeal for the {{to|Solaceon}} {{pkmn|Contest}}, but failed to pass the [[Appeals round]]. [[Zoey]] explained to Dawn that she failed due to an overuse of {{m|Swift}}, blocking {{p|Ambipom}} from view. Ambipom also learned how to break dance, by spinning her tail to make waves of Swift attacks.

[[File:Dawn and Ambipom.png|Dawn, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and Ambipom|thumb|left|200px]]
In ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]'', Dawn used Ambipom in her Gym battle against [[Maylene]]. She was chosen for her extensive battling experience with Ash. Ambipom proved her strength in the battle by defeating Maylene's {{p|Meditite}}, making her the only Pokémon Dawn used in the match who managed to defeat one of Maylene's team. Despite this Ambipom found herself unable to stand up to the strength of [[Maylene's Lucario]] and was quickly knocked out.

In ''[[DP077|Staging a Heroes Welcome]]'', Dawn once again used Ambipom for the appeal round in the [[Wallace Cup]]. She managed to pass the round by dazzling the judges with {{m|Swift}}, {{m|Focus Punch}}, and {{m|Double Hit}}.
[[File:Ash Dawn Ambipom.png|thumb|right|200px|Ambipom saying goodbye to Ash and Dawn]]
In ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]'' Dawn used her in the {{to|Celestic}} Contest Battle Rounds. Ambipom was able to easily defeat her first two opponents and then went up against [[Lila]]'s {{p|Delcatty}}. Ambipom won the Contest by using combinations of {{m|Double Hit}}, {{m|Focus Punch}}, {{m|Double Team}}, and {{m|Swift}}.

In ''[[DP123|Old Rivals, New Tricks]]'', Ambipom was used in a Contest in [[Sandalstraw Town]], and was defeated by [[Kenny's Prinplup]] in the finals. During the Contest, she discovered a love and talent for {{wp|table tennis|ping pong}}. She used this talent to compete in ''[[DP124|To Thine Own Pokémon Be True]]'''s [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]]. Due to her obvious natural ability, fellow competitor [[O]] offered her a place at his Ping Pong Training Center in [[Vermilion City]]. Dawn left the decision to Ambipom. After deciding to pursue Ping Pong over her love of Contests and Battles, Ambipom bid farewell to Dawn and Ash and left the group in order to follow her talent.

==Personality and characteristics==
Like most of her species, Ambipom is a playful Pokémon. As an Aipom, however she behaved much like [[Ash's Chikorita]], being mischievous, often stealing [[Ash's hat]] or other forms of headwear and even other Pokémon's food just for attention. She was also quite attached to Ash, getting jealous of his attention to {{AP|Pikachu}}, or even attacking {{an|Professor Oak}} just because Ash wasn't present. Upon her evolution, most of these traits mellowed. Ambipom had stopped stealing and became quicker to obey orders. While still loyal to Ash after being traded and evolving, she also became loyal to his friends, showing a more mature side.

Ambipom has been shown to develop different interests over time. A well known example of this is Contests. While not necessarily preferring them to Battles, she has shown great interest. She first showed interest in Contests as a wild Pokémon when watching {{an|May}} and other Coordinators compete in ''[[AG181|Thinning the Hoard!]]''. Her love for Contests even persuaded {{Ash}} to participate in the {{ci|Jubilife}} Contest.

Later, she became interested in Pokémon Ping Pong after using Ping Pong-like moves in a [[DP123|recent Contest]]. This interest, once again, ended up in Ambipom [[DP124|switching roads]].

===Moves improvised===
* '''Double Team-Swift''' was used in ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]'' when Aipom wanted to express her wish for performing in Contests. Aipom uses {{m|Double Team}}, before jumping between them and using {{m|Swift}} to create a large glowing star and then lands on her tail. A variation of this was used in ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith!]]'' when Aipom was used in an unofficial [[Pokémon Contest]] under Jessie's command, Aipom uses Double Team and forms into a circle and starts "dancing" and uses Swift and the Swift spins around the audience and then disperses into sparkles or Aipom would use Double Team and grab her tail and form into a circle and uses swift while spinning.
* '''Spin''' was used by Ambipom, when she was still an Aipom under Ash's command. The move was used to evade [[Roark]]'s {{p|Geodude}}'s {{m|Rollout}} in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos We Watched!]]''.
* '''Spinning Swift''' was first used in ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]'' where Aipom released a Swift that spun around Gardenia's Roserade. It was later used again in ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]'' (after Aipom evolved into Ambipom) where it was used against Maylene's Meditite.
* '''Rainbow Swift''' was first used in ''[[DP061|Team Shocker]]''. Ambipom balances herself with her hand and starts spinning her tails glow and the stars shoot out of it. Ambipom then spins on her back (break-dances) the stars then collide making spurts of rainbows.

==In the TCG==
While still under the ownership of Ash, his Aipom was featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]. The following is a list of related cards.
{{cardlist/header|Ash's Aipom|Colorless|char=yes}}
{{cardlist/entry|cardname={{TCG ID|Movie VS Pack|Ash's Aipom|10}}|type=Colorless|jpset=Movie Commemoration VS Pack: Sea's Manaphy|jpnum=010/019}}
{{cardlist/footer|Colorless}}

==Trivia==
[[File:Ash and Aipom DP.png|thumb|200px|right|Ash and Aipom in the Diamond & Pearl artwork]]
* For ''[[DP014|Leave It To Brocko!]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Ash's Aipom. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about her: エイパムが　しっぽでつかむ　サトシのハート ''{{tt|Eipam|Aipom}}, it seizes with its tail, {{tt|Satoshi's|Ash's}} heart.''
* For ''[[DP073|Crossing Paths]]'', Professor Oak's lecture is about Dawn's Ambipom. This makes her the first Pokémon character to be the focus of the lecture twice.
* Since Aipom was Ash's Pokémon before being traded to Dawn, Aipom was the only Pokémon owned by a main character that was introduced ''before'' the character. 
* Ambipom was the first Pokémon belonging to Dawn that evolved and her first fully evolved Pokémon.
* Ambipom is the only Pokémon of Dawn's that shares an English voice actress with her.
* Despite leaving in ''[[DP124|To Thine Own Pokémon Be True!]]'', Ambipom, unlike other Pokémon that left the main cast, was not removed from the [[High Touch!|opening sequence]] until the sequence itself was replaced over eight months later.
* Ambipom was the first of Dawn's Pokémon to evolve by the method of knowing a certain move, the second being her {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}.
** Coincidentally, they are both Pokémon that debut in Generation II that evolve into Generation IV Pokémon.
* As an Ambipom, she was the only of her species seen in the anime.

{{spoilers}}

==Synopsis==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} finally arrive at [[Nacrene City]], and {{an|Iris}} is amazed at all the artwork displayed on the warehouses around the town. {{an|Cilan}} explains that Nacrene City is well known as the city of art and admiration because of the way the citizens essentially use their buildings as canvases. Though Ash is looking forward to his Gym battle more than the artwork. Cilan informs him that the Gym is within the city's museum and the team make their way to Ash's second Gym challenge. However, when they arrive there is a sign outside informing them that the museum is closed. Ash tries to see if anyone is inside when Cilan notices a poster for a new exhibit that was scheduled to open that day, despite the museum being closed. Ash knocks on the door once more and a man is heard screaming from inside the museum.

[[Hawes|A man]] is shown being chased by a [[Dome and Helix Fossils|Dome Fossil]] through the halls of the museum. He finally manages to get the door unlocked and falls to the ground in front of Ash and his friends. Cilan asks the man if he's alright when he exclaims he was being chased by a Kabuto Fossil, though the hall appears empty. The group goes to investigate only to find that the Fossil is back on its display. Cilan suggests the man tell them everything that happened so they go outside to a table to talk. The man explains that the night before, he and the staff were finishing up the exhibit they were about to open up and that they finished late at night. He had stayed behind to make sure everything was in order before the grand opening when the lights went out, and when he made his way to the light switch he heard footsteps and sobbing and a flame appeared and chased him out of the museum. The next morning he returned to the museum with the rest of the staff but they found nothing out of the ordinary, but he postponed the opening of the exhibit until the haunting was resolved to protect guests. When the rest of the staff left, he went back inside which is when he was chased by the dome Fossil, and met Ash and his friends

Iris is convinced that the museum is cursed by a demon trying to cause disaster, whereas Cilan is positive the events could be solved scientifically. Ash becomes frustrated, wanting to know whether or not he'll get the Gym battle he's been wanting, and Iris scolds him for being inconsiderate. The man explains that even if the museum was open, "Dear" was on a business trip. Ash questions who "Dear" is when the man introduces himself as Hawes, vice curator of the museum and husband to the Gym Leader, [[Lenora]]. The group then introduces themselves to Hawes and Cilan asks if they may have a tour of the museum.

Hawes shows them the Dome Fossil that was seen chasing him earlier, and explains that it was once a {{p|Kabuto}}. He also takes them to a {{p|Dragonite}} Fossil which Iris seems to have knowledge of. Next he shows them [[Meteonite|a meteorite]] that is said to hold extra-terrestrial energy. Lastly he takes them to the exhibit that was set to open that day which included suits of armor, and a collection of items retrieved from some ruins, including a well-made replica of a {{p|Cofagrigus}} which is said to reside in ruins. Iris states that she has a hunch of the cause of the curse, claiming it's her "sixth sense", however Cilan states she has no definitive proof. Ash then notices a mask inside a glass case and Hawes explains that it's a replica of a mask held by the Pokémon {{p|Yamask}}. Iris states that she gets a bad vibe from the mask, and the group is taken to a large library within the museum. Hawes explains they let their guests research the artifacts they have on display as much as they like in the library, and asks if they figured anything out during the tour. Cilan explains that nothing seemed out of the ordinary, and Iris states that she couldn't come up with a reason for the bad vibe she got. Ash just complains of being hungry, and Cilan asks if they could spend the night at the museum as they could experience the phenomenon for themselves, which Hawes accepts. He is inspired by their courage despite being children, and Iris remarks that Ash is the only child among them.

That night, the group set up camp within one of the exhibits and Hawes apologizes for the crudity of the manner they're forced to sleep in, and Ash replies that they're use to it. Outside, {{TRT}} is seen waiting in a dark alley when [[Pierce]] appears with their next orders. He asks if they have investigated the museum, and after Jessie confirms he explains that their mission is to swap the meteorite within the museum with the dummy they were given at the train station. Then explains that their aim is not for the meteorite but for ''the'' meteorite. James asks for him to be more specific and the four of them continue the conversation unheard.

Back at the museum, Iris is attempting to wake up Ash after feeling a strange wind when a strange mist appears. Hawes wakes up and leaps to his feet in fear and Iris claims the spirit is trying to start something, though Cilan claims it must be the ventilation system's broken. A suit of armor then appears from the dark doorway that the mist is coming from. Cilan is convinced it's merely low frequency waves, until the suit draws its sword and he claims it's being controlled by strings like a puppet. Regardless, Ash has Pikachu use {{m|Quick Attack}} which causes the suit of armor to fall apart. It then reassembles itself and Pikachu is then ordered to use {{m|Volt Tackle}} which dismembers the suit of armor yet again and releases a flame from inside the armor. It then chases Hawes around the room and Ash calls out his {{AP|Oshawott}} and orders it to use {{m|Water Gun}}. The head of the suit then reanimates itself and chases after Hawes and Ash has Pikachu take care of it once and for all with {{m|Iron Tail}}. Iris claims she thinks the spirit is after Hawes, and he states that he hasn't done anything to make a spirit angry when it suddenly starts to rain.

It stops raining after only a few seconds and sobbing is suddenly heard coming from the next room. As Iris and Cilan argue over the source, Ash tells them that there's no way they'll know for sure until they see for themselves. They venture into the next room when Ash notices that the mask from earlier is actually crying. As Cilan tries to explain how it's producing tears, the mask levitates and starts bashing itself against the glass. The Dragonite Fossil has also become animated and has appeared behind the group. Cilan seems to stop believing this was all just mere scientific coincidences as the Dragonite begins punching the glass of the display. Cilan sends out his {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}} and has it use {{m|Bullet Seed}} on the Fossil which causes it to fall apart, as well as produce a strange cry. Hawes opens the display to check the condition of the mask when it suddenly flies across the room and places itself on Cilan's face and takes control of him. It then fires two balls of fire at the group stating they need to be punished. Iris tries talking to the spirit that now possesses Cilan, asking what has caused it to become so angry. It replies that it is angry because the mask was caged, and that it is precious.

Lenora suddenly appears in the doorway and explains that the mask must be the real mask of a Yamask. Hawes is overjoyed to see his wife has shown up just in time. Lenora asks Hawes where he first got the mask, and he replies that he found it lying on the ground as the staff workers were carrying in the items for the exhibit. He assumed it was thrown in along with the Cofagrigus replica even though they had only ordered the Cofagrigus. The mask then reassembles the Dragonite and Lenora calls out her {{p|Watchog}} which {{a|illuminate}}s the room with a blinding light. Ash scans the Watchog with his Pokédex as Lenora requests that Yamask shows itself. The mask then removes itself from Cilan's head and floats towards the ceiling where a Yamask appears. Ash scans the Yamask, and Lenora explains that Yamask must have been among the items for the exhibit and must have somehow dropped its mask, which Hawes then took as a replica and put on display. She adds that when Yamask realized the whereabouts of its mask, it must have thought it was taken from it. Yamask confirms Lenora's theory as true, and Cilan realizes that the events were caused by Yamask using {{m|Psychic}}, and {{m|Haze}}, as well as {{m|Rain Dance}} and {{m|Will-O-Wisp}}. Hawes runs to Lenora's side and sincerely apologizes to Yamask for the misunderstanding, which the Yamask accepts with forgiveness. With the Yamask happy again, Ash exclaims that Yamask is actually a cute Pokémon and Cilan states it has a mysterious taste.

At sunrise they bid the Yamask farewell. Ash claims that it's the perfect morning for the day of his second Gym battle. The episode ends with Ash formally introducing himself to Lenora, and Lenora gladly accepting his challenge.

==Synopsis==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} continue their journey to [[Nacrene City]], in order for Ash to get his second Badge. They walk along a path and turn around when they hear a voice. A young woman is telling them to hold on. She fumbles, with Iris dodging her, and she knocks Ash and Cilan into the river. She repeatedly apologizes and says she is on an errand looking for Ash. She shows them her [[Xtransceiver]], and Professor Juniper shows up on the screen. After finding out Ash got his first Badge, Juniper says she forgot to give him a Badge case, and she sent {{an|Bianca}}, the young girl who they are with. Bianca turns off her Xtransceiver and officially introduces herself. She goes through her purse, looking for the Badge case. She struggles to find it and after a while, she does. The Badge case is dirty and she hands it to Ash. Ash takes the Badge case and puts his {{Badge|Trio}} inside. Bianca asks if she can take a look at it. Ash hands the Badge case over but a Pokémon takes the Badge case!

They give chase, in which Pikachu goes on ahead and the two Pokémon vanish up ahead. Ash comments that it is very fast. Bianca suggests that Ash should ask for another Badge but Ash says the Badge holds the strong feelings of his Pokémon and himself. They hear Pikachu and they go on ahead. They find the Pokémon with its tail out. The Pokémon is seen rubbing the Badge case. Bianca checks the Pokémon in the Pokédex, revealing it to be a {{TP|Bianca|Minccino}}. Bianca cannot hold her excitement and she heads out to capture it. Minccino grabs the Badge case as Bianca calls out her {{TP|Bianca|Pignite}}. Ash scans it in his Pokédex. Pignite begins with a Tackle but Minccino swiftly dodges. Pignite uses {{m|Flame Charge}} and collides with Minccino but Minccino climbs up a tree. Minccino puts down the Badge case and uses {{m|Hyper Voice}}, stopping Pignite. Minccino then uses {{m|Tickle}} on Pignite, rendering it useless. Bianca recalls it. Ash proceeds to battle it with Pikachu but Oshawott comes out on its own. Ash lets it battle. Oshawott starts with a Tackle but Minccino jumps up. Bianca excitingly tells Oshawott to use {{m|Hydro Pump}}, which confuses Oshawott. Ash tells her that he cannot use Hydro Pump and tells it to use {{m|Razor Shell}}. Oshawott uses Razor Shell but Minccino is gone. Minccino climbs up a tree and Bianca tells Oshawott to use Razor Shell again but Oshawott sighs. Minccino then sneaks up on Oshawott and uses Tickle, followed by {{m|DoubleSlap}}, defeating Oshawott. Minccino takes the Badge case and leaves.

Ash agrees to help Bianca get Minccino. Meanwhile, Team Rocket have arrived in Nacrene City. Using a device, they attempt to locate the museum. Back with Ash & company, Bianca comes up with an idea. She asks Cilan if he has anything shiny. He gives her a spoon and she gets it dirty, to Cilan's dismay. Iris comments that Minccino will be lured because it cannot resist to clean dirty things. Using a stick, a rope and a pan, she puts the dirty spoon under it. Minccino takes the bait and she pulls the rope, which drops the pan on Minccino. Minccino then leaves with the pan over its head. Ash realizes he will need to defeat it. Ash & the others find Minccino and Ash calls out {{AP|Snivy}}. Bianca comments that Ash has a lot of Pokémon. Cilan asks how much Pokémon Bianca has, and she says Pignite is her only Pokémon. Her father did not allow her to become a Trainer, so she trained at home and she just started her journey, having two Badges. Snivy uses {{m|Attract}} but Minccino dodges, countering with his own Attract. Snivy gets caught by it and Ash recalls Snivy. Pikachu proceeds to battle Minccino. Pikachu uses {{m|Iron Tail}} but Minccino dodges. Pikachu chases Minccino with {{m|Quick Attack}}. The two collide with Iron Tail and DoubleSlap. The two land and Minccino uses Hyper Voice, followed by Tickle. Pikachu withstands the attacks and Minccino is tired out. In a burst of jubilant enthusiasm, Bianca exclaims for Pikachu to use {{m|Zap Cannon}}; however, Ash informs her that Pikachu cannot use that move, much to Bianca's annoyance. By Ash's command, Pikachu shocks Minccino with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Bianca tries to bring out a [[Poké Ball]] but she struggles to find one. Minccino gets away but she brings out a dusty Poké Ball, which makes Minccino go back. He attempts to clean it but activates the Poké Ball, capturing it. Everyone is baffled by what has happened. Ash gets his Badge case but falls out of the tree, with the pan hitting him.

Ash & company are at the [[Pokémon Center]] and [[Nurse Joy]] has healed Ash & Bianca's Pokémon. She also says Ash's Egg is healthy. Bianca asks what is in the Egg but Ash is unsure about it. Bianca then asks Ash for battle, which he agrees to. Ash says it will be 1 on 1. Bianca uses Pignite but Iris assumed she'd use Minccino. Ash is about to decide on who to use but Bianca interrupts, saying she wants to battle Pikachu. Pikachu accepts and uses Quick Attack. Pignite uses {{m|Take Down}} and hits Pikachu. Pignite uses {{m|Heat Crash}} and pins down Pikachu. Pikachu gets up and Bianca continues her excitement over how strong Pikachu is. Pignite uses Flame Charge, while Pikachu uses {{m|Volt Tackle}}. The smoke clears and Pignite falls, while Pikachu is still standing. The winner is Ash. Bianca walks up to Ash and says she will get stronger the next time they meet. She wishes Ash good luck in his upcoming Gym battle and leaves. The episode ends with Ash holding up his newly acquired Badge case.

Take Back Your House!!'') is the 11th episode of the {{series|Best Wishes}}, and the 668th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on December 2, 2010 and in the United States on April 16, 2011
{{spoilers}}

==Synopsis==
The episode begins with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} stopping for lunch along a stream on their way to [[Nacrene City]]. Cilan is adding the final touches to his potato salad sandwiches as {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Axew}} dine on bowls of Pokémon food. Suddenly, Axew senses something and walks towards some boulders. Pikachu tries getting Axew to go back to the table, when Axew refuses Pikachu looks to see what Axew found. A small, crustacean-like Pokémon appears behind a small rock and begins tapping on the stone. Their Trainers come over to see what's going on and Cilan recognizes the Pokémon as {{p|Dwebble}} without its rock as Ash scans it in his Pokédex. Iris realizes that they're witnessing a Dwebble building its own shell, an event rarely seen by humans. The Dwebble then knocks the rock onto its side and begins carving it with its claws.

Making a few finishing touches, the Dwebble fires a strange liquid at the rock, which Ash's Pokédex identifies as the corrosive saliva that the Dwebble uses to construct its home. It sticks its tail into the shell, adjusts it, and the Dwebble seems satisfied with its creation. The Dwebble starts to head on its way when suddenly three Dwebble appear from under the ground. Two of the Dwebble then attack the first Dwebble and the leader Dwebble then takes the new shell of the Dwebble and uses its corrosive liquid to attach it to its own shell. Ash calls out to the thieving Dwebble, but they just burrow under ground and the now shell-less Dwebble burrows after them. Cilan calls out his {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}} to follow the Dwebble underground.

Pansage returns later along with the Dwebble, unsuccessful in retrieving its shell. Cilan goes over to greet the Dwebble, but it flees. Ash and Cilan chase after it, and Iris bounds ahead and corners it, telling it not to be afraid. When Pikachu tries to reason with the Dwebble, it retaliates using {{m|Slash}} in an attempt to defend itself, breaking up the ground into small rocks, one of which happens to directly hit Pansage on the head. Cilan cries out to Pansage and Dwebble takes concern in harming Pansage when he was originally fending off Pikachu, and apologizes to Pansage. Cilan sprays a [[Super Potion]] on Pansage's wound as Dwebble apologizes for the mishap again. They all forgive the Dwebble, as it has had a bad experience itself. Iris asks if it could build a new house again which the Dwebble refuses. Ash offers to help it get its house back but the Dwebble refuses and burrows underground. Cilan mentions the first order of business is to find the three Dwebble that stole its home.

The next scene has [[Pierce]] standing on a sidewalk when {{TRT}} appears. The four of them then walk into an abandoned subway tunnel until they reach a station. Pierce then tells them that their objective is to research the [[Meteonite]], a critical key to the major project. They are then informed to infiltrate the Antimony Research Facility to obtain information of the Meteonite, and with that they take their leave.

That evening, the kids are still searching for the Dwebble who ambushed their new friend. {{AP|Pidove|Tranquill}} searching from the skies and Pansage searching from underground. The shell-less Dwebble also returns empty handed. Cilan suggests that they resume their search tomorrow, and they all take a break to have dinner. However, while they're eating, Pansage begins feeling under the weather and suddenly passes out. Cilan holds his hand to Pansage's head revealing that the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is experiencing a high fever from the rock that hit him earlier that day. This causes Dwebble to feel incredibly guilty. Cilan is concerned since he has no medication for his partner, however Iris says that she can help with her knowledge of {{wp|herbalism}}. She returns with an herb she and Axew found earlier and grind it in a mortar for Pansage. Once it's finished, she spoon feeds the medicine to Pansage and says that after a good night's rest Pansage's fever will disappear. Ash is thoroughly impressed with Iris's skill and thanks her and Axew for their help.

That night, while everyone slept, Dwebble stayed close to Pansage and tended to him when his washcloth would fall off his head or tuck him in. Cilan awakes after seeing how concerned Dwebble is, says that it shouldn't worry too much or else it won't have the strength to get its home back if they find that Dwebble trio. It then fixes Pansage's blanket and falls asleep next to him. Elsewhere, Team Rocket has begun execution of their mission to infiltrate the research facility and obtain information of the Meteonite. Once inside, [[James]] sends down a small robot that creates a link between the master computer and their laptop. After breaching the security protocols, they obtain the data they were sent to retrieve.

The next morning, Pansage is back to his cheerful self and completely fine. Cilan informs Pansage that Dwebble had been at his bedside all night, and the group prepare to get Dwebble's house back. Pansage successfully finds them underground and forces them out. The trio then high tail it out of there but Axew follows them. Though they suddenly disappear inside their shells, disguising themselves among the boulders. However Axew tricks them into coming out as the others catch up. The shell-less Dwebble then goes in to attack when the two lesser Dwebble attempt to hit it with their shells. Dwebble is hit by one of the others and Pikachu goes into the fray to help but the shell-less Dwebble wants to fight on its own. It then goes in for a Slash attack but it's too slow against the other Dwebble's Slash. Again and again it is defeated until it is knocked out and three thieving Dwebble then burrow underground.

They then decide to come up with a plan rather than rushing into battle without one. Cilan decides to use Pokémon food to separate the Dwebble so that the shell-less Dwebble can take them on one at a time. They tie rope to bowls full of Pokémon food and tie them to Pansage, Pikachu, and Axew. When the Dwebble appear to eat, the three Pokémon run, causing the bowls to be separated in three directions, and their respective Dwebble chase after them. The first is taken out by accidentally knocking down a boulder on itself, which sent it flying. The second gets stuck between two stones because of its shell and is knocked out with an {{m|X-Scissor}}. The leader Dwebble is now alone and the shell-less Dwebble is able to have a one on one battle with it. It goes in for a Slash attack but the leader turns and uses the shell it stole as a shield. Not wanting to attack its own home, the shell-less Dwebble is forced to stop its attack. It is then hit by a powerful {{m|Smack Down}} from the leader, and then has it follow him under a covered area. However the stacked shells make it impossible for the leader Dwebble to fit and it is hit by an X-Scissor from the shell-less Dwebble. A surprise Slash attack catches the shell-less Dwebble off guard but it comes back with a {{m|Shell Smash}} so powerful that it shatters the leader's shell without harming its own shell. Defeated, and now homeless, the leader Dwebble flees. The shell-less Dwebble checks its home to make sure it is unaltered and happily slips its tail back into it and jumps with glee that it has retrieved its stolen home.

Team Rocket report back to Pierce with the data they were able to retrieve the night before, and Pierce leaves to report back to {{an|Giovanni}}. Ash and company decide it's time to continue on their way to Nacrene City and say their goodbyes to the Dwebble they helped. But as they walk away, the Dwebble chases after Cilan who asks if it needs anything. Iris suggests that the Dwebble wants to be a part of Cilan's party. After evaluating the Dwebble's personality, he agrees that it would be a great Pokémon to have and tosses a [[Poké Ball]] into the air, and Dwebble jumps up and activates the Poké Ball, allowing itself to be captured. Happy to have a new friend on the team, the trio continue on their way to Nacrene City into the sunset, and the episode ends.

'''Attract''' (Japanese: '''メロメロ''' ''Attract'') is a non-damaging {{type|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation II]]. It is [[TM45]] from Generation II onwards.

==Effect==
If the target is the opposite [[gender]] of the Pokémon who launched the move, the target becomes {{status|Infatuation|infatuated}}. If the move is used on a pokémon that is the same gender as the user or is genderless, it will fail.

If used by {{p|Mew}} or {{p|Cryogonal}}, the move will always fail, because they are genderless.

===Pokémon Mystery Dungeon===

In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], all Pokémon were genderless so Attract simply infatuated the opponent. Unlike in the main games, infatuation can linger on an opponent even after the user has been defeated.

Attract took the same effect as in the main games in later Mystery Dungeon installments when genders were introduced.

'''Heat Crash''' (Japanese: '''ヒートスタンプ ''' ''Heat Stamp'') is a damage-dealing {{type|Fire}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation V]]. It is the [[signature move]] of {{p|Tepig}} and its {{p|Pignite|evolutionary}} {{p|Emboar|line}}.

==Effect==
Heat Crash does damage in base depending on the [[weight]] of both the user and the target; when the user is heavier than the target, more damage is inflicted.
The damage can be calculated in this form:

* 120 base power, if target's weight is lower or equal to ⅕ (20%) of user's weight.
* 100 base power, if target's weight is greater than ⅕ (20%) of user's weight and lower or equal to ¼ (25%) of user's weight.
* 80 base power, if target's weight is greater than ¼ (25%) of user's weight and lower or equal to ⅓ (33.3%) of user's weight.
* 60 base power, if target's weight is greater than ⅓ (33.3%) of user's weight and lower or equal to ½ of user's weight (50%).
* 40 base power, if target's weight is greater than ½ (50%) of user's weight.

Since {{p|Tepig}}, {{p|Pignite}}, and {{p|Emboar}} will always have constant weights, one can find out which weight classes will receive how much base damage.

For the species {{p|Emboar}} as an example:
{| class="roundy" align="left" style="background: #{{Fire color light}}; border: 3px solid #{{Fire color}}"
|- align=center
! style="{{roundytl|5px}};" | Target's Weight
! style="{{roundytr|5px}};" | Power
|- style="background:#FFF;"
| 0 - 30kg (0 - 66.14lb)
| 120
|- style="background:#FFF;"
| 30 - 37.5kg (66.14 - 82.7lb)
| 100
|- style="background:#FFF;"
| 37.5 - 50kg (82.7 - 110.1lb)
| 80
|- style="background:#FFF;"
| 50 - 75kg (110.1 - 165.4lb)
| 60
|-
| style="background:#FFF; {{roundybl|5px}};" | 75kg or more (165.4lb or more)

==Trivia==
* Shell Smash, along with {{m|Coil}} and {{m|Quiver Dance}}, are the only moves that raise three stats at once.
** Shell Smash is also the only move that affects more than three stats, other than {{m|AncientPower}} and its variations.
** Shell Smash also causes the greatest overall base stat changes of any move from no changes at all, with 8.
*** However, {{m|Belly Drum}} surpasses this if the user has at least a -3 stat change in Attack, resulting in a +9 net stat change.
* All the Pokémon that are able to learn Shell Smash have Defense as their highest stat.
* Shell Smash is similar to Weak Armor, as both of them similarly lower the Defense stat, but at the same time boost the Speed stat.

'''Smack Down''' (Japanese: '''うちおとす''' ''Knock Down'') is a damage-dealing {{type2|Rock}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation V]]. It is [[TM23]] as of Generation V.

==Effect==
Smack Down inflicts damage. If the target is airborne, Smack Down forces it onto the ground, removing the effects of {{m|Magnet Rise}} and {{m|Telekinesis}}. Smack Down makes its target vulnerable to {{type|Ground}} moves and {{a|Arena Trap}} even if it is {{type|Flying}} or has {{a|Levitate}}. This effect lasts until the affected Pokémon switches out.

This effect does not occur if the target is behind a {{m|Substitute}} or has temporarily grounded itself using {{m|Roost}} (even in subsequent turns when the Pokémon returns to the air).

Smack Down can hit a target that is using {{m|Fly}} or {{m|Bounce}} and knock it to the ground (canceling the move). It can also hit a Pokémon that is using or is affected by {{m|Sky Drop}}, but can't knock it down. A Pokémon hit with Smack Down can still use Fly or Bounce on subsequent turns.

==Description==

{{movedescentry|BW|The user throws a stone or projectile to attack an opponent. A flying Pokémon will fall to the ground when it's hit.}}

==Synopsis==
The episode begins with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} stopping for lunch along a stream on their way to [[Nacrene City]]. Cilan is adding the final touches to his potato salad sandwiches as {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Axew}} dine on bowls of Pokémon food. Suddenly, Axew senses something and walks towards some boulders. Pikachu tries getting Axew to go back to the table, when Axew refuses Pikachu looks to see what Axew found. A small, crustacean-like Pokémon appears behind a small rock and begins tapping on the stone. Their Trainers come over to see what's going on and Cilan recognizes the Pokémon as {{p|Dwebble}} without its rock as Ash scans it in his Pokédex. Iris realizes that they're witnessing a Dwebble building its own shell, an event rarely seen by humans. The Dwebble then knocks the rock onto its side and begins carving it with its claws.

Making a few finishing touches, the Dwebble fires a strange liquid at the rock, which Ash's Pokédex identifies as the corrosive saliva that the Dwebble uses to construct its home. It sticks its tail into the shell, adjusts it, and the Dwebble seems satisfied with its creation. The Dwebble starts to head on its way when suddenly three Dwebble appear from under the ground. Two of the Dwebble then attack the first Dwebble and the leader Dwebble then takes the new shell of the Dwebble and uses its corrosive liquid to attach it to its own shell. Ash calls out to the thieving Dwebble, but they just burrow under ground and the now shell-less Dwebble burrows after them. Cilan calls out his {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}} to follow the Dwebble underground.

Pansage returns later along with the Dwebble, unsuccessful in retrieving its shell. Cilan goes over to greet the Dwebble, but it flees. Ash and Cilan chase after it, and Iris bounds ahead and corners it, telling it not to be afraid. When Pikachu tries to reason with the Dwebble, it retaliates using {{m|Slash}} in an attempt to defend itself, breaking up the ground into small rocks, one of which happens to directly hit Pansage on the head. Cilan cries out to Pansage and Dwebble takes concern in harming Pansage when he was originally fending off Pikachu, and apologizes to Pansage. Cilan sprays a [[Super Potion]] on Pansage's wound as Dwebble apologizes for the mishap again. They all forgive the Dwebble, as it has had a bad experience itself. Iris asks if it could build a new house again which the Dwebble refuses. Ash offers to help it get its house back but the Dwebble refuses and burrows underground. Cilan mentions the first order of business is to find the three Dwebble that stole its home.

The next scene has [[Pierce]] standing on a sidewalk when {{TRT}} appears. The four of them then walk into an abandoned subway tunnel until they reach a station. Pierce then tells them that their objective is to research the [[Meteonite]], a critical key to the major project. They are then informed to infiltrate the Antimony Research Facility to obtain information of the Meteonite, and with that they take their leave.

That evening, the kids are still searching for the Dwebble who ambushed their new friend. {{AP|Pidove|Tranquill}} searching from the skies and Pansage searching from underground. The shell-less Dwebble also returns empty handed. Cilan suggests that they resume their search tomorrow, and they all take a break to have dinner. However, while they're eating, Pansage begins feeling under the weather and suddenly passes out. Cilan holds his hand to Pansage's head revealing that the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} is experiencing a high fever from the rock that hit him earlier that day. This causes Dwebble to feel incredibly guilty. Cilan is concerned since he has no medication for his partner, however Iris says that she can help with her knowledge of {{wp|herbalism}}. She returns with an herb she and Axew found earlier and grind it in a mortar for Pansage. Once it's finished, she spoon feeds the medicine to Pansage and says that after a good night's rest Pansage's fever will disappear. Ash is thoroughly impressed with Iris's skill and thanks her and Axew for their help.

That night, while everyone slept, Dwebble stayed close to Pansage and tended to him when his washcloth would fall off his head or tuck him in. Cilan awakes after seeing how concerned Dwebble is, says that it shouldn't worry too much or else it won't have the strength to get its home back if they find that Dwebble trio. It then fixes Pansage's blanket and falls asleep next to him. Elsewhere, Team Rocket has begun execution of their mission to infiltrate the research facility and obtain information of the Meteonite. Once inside, [[James]] sends down a small robot that creates a link between the master computer and their laptop. After breaching the security protocols, they obtain the data they were sent to retrieve.

The next morning, Pansage is back to his cheerful self and completely fine. Cilan informs Pansage that Dwebble had been at his bedside all night, and the group prepare to get Dwebble's house back. Pansage successfully finds them underground and forces them out. The trio then high tail it out of there but Axew follows them. Though they suddenly disappear inside their shells, disguising themselves among the boulders. However Axew tricks them into coming out as the others catch up. The shell-less Dwebble then goes in to attack when the two lesser Dwebble attempt to hit it with their shells. Dwebble is hit by one of the others and Pikachu goes into the fray to help but the shell-less Dwebble wants to fight on its own. It then goes in for a Slash attack but it's too slow against the other Dwebble's Slash. Again and again it is defeated until it is knocked out and three thieving Dwebble then burrow underground.

They then decide to come up with a plan rather than rushing into battle without one. Cilan decides to use Pokémon food to separate the Dwebble so that the shell-less Dwebble can take them on one at a time. They tie rope to bowls full of Pokémon food and tie them to Pansage, Pikachu, and Axew. When the Dwebble appear to eat, the three Pokémon run, causing the bowls to be separated in three directions, and their respective Dwebble chase after them. The first is taken out by accidentally knocking down a boulder on itself, which sent it flying. The second gets stuck between two stones because of its shell and is knocked out with an {{m|X-Scissor}}. The leader Dwebble is now alone and the shell-less Dwebble is able to have a one on one battle with it. It goes in for a Slash attack but the leader turns and uses the shell it stole as a shield. Not wanting to attack its own home, the shell-less Dwebble is forced to stop its attack. It is then hit by a powerful {{m|Smack Down}} from the leader, and then has it follow him under a covered area. However the stacked shells make it impossible for the leader Dwebble to fit and it is hit by an X-Scissor from the shell-less Dwebble. A surprise Slash attack catches the shell-less Dwebble off guard but it comes back with a {{m|Shell Smash}} so powerful that it shatters the leader's shell without harming its own shell. Defeated, and now homeless, the leader Dwebble flees. The shell-less Dwebble checks its home to make sure it is unaltered and happily slips its tail back into it and jumps with glee that it has retrieved its stolen home.

Team Rocket report back to Pierce with the data they were able to retrieve the night before, and Pierce leaves to report back to {{an|Giovanni}}. Ash and company decide it's time to continue on their way to Nacrene City and say their goodbyes to the Dwebble they helped. But as they walk away, the Dwebble chases after Cilan who asks if it needs anything. Iris suggests that the Dwebble wants to be a part of Cilan's party. After evaluating the Dwebble's personality, he agrees that it would be a great Pokémon to have and tosses a [[Poké Ball]] into the air, and Dwebble jumps up and activates the Poké Ball, allowing itself to be captured. Happy to have a new friend on the team, the trio continue on their way to Nacrene City into the sunset, and the episode ends.

==Synopsis==
As {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are on their way to [[Nacrene City]], {{an|Cilan}} and {{an|Iris}} had stopped somewhere in the forest to battle. Ash, observing them from the side, questions why he isn't the one battling. Iris tells him that he is too serious, and a {{m|Volt Tackle}} from {{AP|Pikachu}} would be too unbearable for {{TP|Iris|Axew}}. She then commands Axew to use {{m|Scratch}} on {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}. Slowly, Axew trots over, and Pansage starts firing its {{m|Bullet Seed}} - one seed at a time. However, before Axew could even reach Pansage, the extremely gentle Bullet Seed attack proved too much for Axew, and Axew starts crying. Iris runs over to console Axew and Ash hears her telling Axew that it was only a practice. Cilan then explains that they are practicing so as to get Axew used to battle, and it was agreed previously that only 'soft' attacks at twenty percent will be used. Ash claims that battles are more productive when full effort is being put in, and Iris rebukes him for not being a gentleman and for acting like a child. Cilan tells Ash that as one of Axew's first battles, they should let Iris decide how it should be conducted, which Ash reluctantly agrees.

When Axew is feeling better, Iris tells it to perform another Scratch attack on Pansage. Slowly, Axew trots over to Pansage, but the latter blocks its attacks by grabbing the fin on its head. As Axew flails its arms around, Iris complains and requests Cilan to be more serious. Cilan tells them that they ''are'' being serious; this is the strategy they usually employ in [[Gym]] battles: to block the opponent's attacks then follow up with a close-ranged attack. Pansage then charges its {{m|SolarBeam}}. As Iris panics, Ash asks if Axew knows any other moves it could use to counter. Iris then claims that it has one other move, but while contemplating on whether or not to use it, Pansage unleashes the SolarBeam attack which it had been charging: a tiny fleck of light which hits Axew squarely in the head and causes it to roll over. Shortly after, Ash tells Iris to let Axew use 'the other move' as using a variety of moves is also part of training. Frustrated, Iris orders Axew to use {{m|Dragon Rage}}. Axew starts charging energy, its belly glowing in blue light. As its mouth gapes open, ready to launch the attack at Pansage, it suddenly blunders, causing a gigantic explosion and a large crater to form. All but Axew were then covered in soot and severely surprised by the attack.

Meanwhile in an abandoned building, [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} are huddled together in front of a computer-like device. {{an|Giovanni}} appears on the screen, and instructs the {{TRT}} to travel to the [[Desert Resort]]. As it appears, the Desert Resort is at the center of an energy flow with the same energy signature as the one found at the [[Dreamyard]]. Obtaining such an energy is a key component of Team Rocket's ultimate plan, and as such, they are to meet up with another Team Rocket agent to investigate a [[Meteonite|meteorite fragment]] that is located there.

Taking a break on the trunk of a large tree, Iris glumly explains that Axew has not mastered Dragon Rage yet. Ash and Cilan then joke that it was more like a "sneeze" than a "rage", which only offends Iris. As Iris is troubled by Axew's Dragon Rage, she reveals to them that Axew only knows the two moves it had used earlier on, and with regard to its Dragon Rage, it always explodes instead of being shot out as a ball. Iris was hoping that by taking things slowly, it would gradually improve its performance. Meanwhile, Axew returns with fruits it had plucked from a tree, and was praised by Cilan. It then returns to the tree to pluck more fruits.

As Ash and Cilan comments positively on Axew's potential, Ash then offers to battle with Iris' Axew. However, Iris refuses to, and says she does not want to lose. Ash and Cilan then became curious as to how she got Axew in the first place. She then explains that it was given to her by the old matriarch from her hometown, a place which specialized in raising {{type|Dragon}}d Pokémon. There, it was a traditional rite of passage for a young Trainer to be given a Pokémon, and to go on a journey where they would grow together. A Trainer had to raise the Axew he/she was given into an {{p|Haxorus}}, a proof that the Trainer had grown to fully understand its Pokémon and its heart. As they had already left their hometown for some time, Iris became concerned about how Axew was developing and thus requested to battle Cilan. She then realizes that Axew had disappeared.

Meanwhile, Axew stands on a thin branch, trying to pick a cluster of fruit dangling near the edge of the branch. As it inched closer and stretched out, Pikachu cries out in warning. A while later, Axew finally moves close enough and grabs one of the fruit. However, the branch it was standing on now bends threateningly low; as the stalk of the fruit cleaves from the tree, the branch springs up, and Axew loses balance, tumbling down into the bush below and into between the horns of a sleeping Pokémon. Alarmed, the gigantic purple centipede-like Pokémon awakens from its slumber and shakes its head rapidly and violently, trying to free Axew from its horns.

For a moment the {{t|Bug}} Pokémon tried to escape, Pikachu jumps off the tree and attacks it with {{m|Iron Tail}}. Enraged, it charges at Pikachu only to miss and send the tree behind Pikachu flying into the air. Pikachu tries to run away, and Axew attempts a Dragon Rage attack on its captor. However, once again, the attack explodes before it could be launched.

The group notice the explosion, and realizing where Pikachu and Axew were, they run towards it. Pikachu comes running in the opposite direction, and upon seeing Ash, he tries to explain what had happened. The gigantic bug Pokémon pops out from behind a bush and Axew is heard screaming, apparently being shaken wildly again. Ash checks his [[Pokédex]] and realizes it's called a {{p|Scolipede}}.

Scolipede appears in front of the group and begins chasing the group, firing {{m|Toxic}} globs that dissolves a large rock and a nearby tree. Ash and Cilan then attempt to battle it and rescue Axew, using Pansage and {{TP|Ash|Snivy}}. Pansage starts by firing Bullet Seed at its feet, and while the wild Scolipede finches, Snivy grabs its horns. However, Scolipede proved too strong against Snivy when it spun her around wildly, thereby causing her to faint from dizziness. Scolipede then continues its rampage. As it approaches Ash and Cilan, Iris steps in front of them and takes out another [[Poké Ball]], hesitating to send the Pokémon out. After Ash had reminded her about the urgency of the situation, she plucks up her courage and hurls the Poké Ball into the air, releasing a curled up Pokémon. Ash then checks his Pokédex, and it is revealed to be an {{p|Excadrill}}.

Iris begs the stationary Excadrill to assist her in saving Axew. However, after being ignored, she decides to help Axew herself and devises a plan. Pansage starts charging SolarBeam while Ash sends out {{AP|Tepig}}. Together with Pikachu, Tepig attacks Scolipede at its feet, delaying its advance and giving Cilan's Pansage time to launch its SolarBeam to stop the Scolipede in its tracks. Right from above, Iris grabs a vine and swings over Scolipede's head, grabbing Axew's leg and then landing safely. The team then celebrate; Ash recalling Tepig, and Cilan, his Pansage.

However, their celebration is short-lived, as Scolipede recovers and turns to Iris, ready to attack. It brushes its hind feet against the ground in preparation to charge, but doing so, it accidentally knocks Excadrill and sends it rolling away. Agitated, Excadrill {{m|Dig|burrows underground}} and surfaces, hitting Scolipede in the face. The two Pokémon stare at each other, eyes glowing with fury; a battle is about to ensue. Ash asks Iris to give commands, but Iris simply states that Excadrill will not listen to her, and as such, the team watches as Scolipede launches another Toxic attack at Excadrill. Excadrill, being a partial {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon, is not affected by {{type2|Poison}} attacks, and merely slaps the toxins away. Excadrill then uses {{m|Drill Run}}, before tossing a charging Scolipede into the sky and across the forest as it tries to use a counter-attack. Excadrill lets out a victorious roar, and as the group express their gratitude towards it, it stares into the sky for a while before grunting and returning back to its dormant drill-like state. Iris recalls Excadrill.

Cilan then encourages Iris to train at her own pace with both Axew and Excadrill, when Ash offers to battle them. Iris refuses again, telling Ash that if he wants to battle so badly, then he should battle with Pikachu. Taking her comment literally, Ash excitedly agrees and both Trainer and Pokémon stand across each other in the open ground, taking their places and ready to battle. Ash tells Pikachu to shock him with {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and subsequently ram him with {{m|Volt Tackle}}, to which the {{t|Electric}} Mouse Pokémon complies. Cilan comments that they both are a truly unique couple while Iris is awestruck that they took her seriously. Ash and Pikachu continue their electrifying battle while lighting up the entire forest, as both Iris and Cilan watch, speechless.

Iris tells him that he is too serious, and a {{m|Volt Tackle}} from {{AP|Pikachu}} would be too unbearable for {{TP|Iris|Axew}}. She then commands Axew to use {{m|Scratch}} on {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}. Slowly, Axew trots over, and Pansage starts firing its {{m|Bullet Seed}} - one seed at a time. However, before Axew could even reach Pansage, the extremely gentle Bullet Seed attack proved too much for Axew, and Axew starts crying. Iris runs over to console Axew and Ash hears her telling Axew that it was only a practice. Cilan then explains that they are practicing so as to get Axew used to battle, and it was agreed previously that only 'soft' attacks at twenty percent will be used. Ash claims that battles are more productive when full effort is being put in, and Iris rebukes him for not being a gentleman and for acting like a child. Cilan tells Ash that as one of Axew's first battles, they should let Iris decide how it should be conducted, which Ash reluctantly agrees.

When Axew is feeling better, Iris tells it to perform another Scratch attack on Pansage. Slowly, Axew trots over to Pansage, but the latter blocks its attacks by grabbing the fin on its head. As Axew flails its arms around, Iris complains and requests Cilan to be more serious. Cilan tells them that they ''are'' being serious; this is the strategy they usually employ in [[Gym]] battles: to block the opponent's attacks then follow up with a close-ranged attack. Pansage then charges its {{m|SolarBeam}}. As Iris panics, Ash asks if Axew knows any other moves it could use to counter. Iris then claims that it has one other move, but while contemplating on whether or not to use it, Pansage unleashes the SolarBeam attack which it had been charging: a tiny fleck of light which hits Axew squarely in the head and causes it to roll over. Shortly after, Ash tells Iris to let Axew use 'the other move' as using a variety of moves is also part of training. Frustrated, Iris orders Axew to use {{m|Dragon Rage}}. Axew starts charging energy, its belly glowing in blue light. As its mouth gapes open, ready to launch the attack at Pansage, it suddenly blunders, causing a gigantic explosion and a large crater to form. All but Axew were then covered in soot and severely surprised by the attack.

Meanwhile in an abandoned building, [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} are huddled together in front of a computer-like device. {{an|Giovanni}} appears on the screen, and instructs the {{TRT}} to travel to the [[Desert Resort]]. As it appears, the Desert Resort is at the center of an energy flow with the same energy signature as the one found at the [[Dreamyard]]. Obtaining such an energy is a key component of Team Rocket's ultimate plan, and as such, they are to meet up with another Team Rocket agent to investigate a [[Meteonite|meteorite fragment]] that is located there.

Taking a break on the trunk of a large tree, Iris glumly explains that Axew has not mastered Dragon Rage yet. Ash and Cilan then joke that it was more like a "sneeze" than a "rage", which only offends Iris. As Iris is troubled by Axew's Dragon Rage, she reveals to them that Axew only knows the two moves it had used earlier on, and with regard to its Dragon Rage, it always explodes instead of being shot out as a ball. Iris was hoping that by taking things slowly, it would gradually improve its performance. Meanwhile, Axew returns with fruits it had plucked from a tree, and was praised by Cilan. It then returns to the tree to pluck more fruits.

As Ash and Cilan comments positively on Axew's potential, Ash then offers to battle with Iris' Axew. However, Iris refuses to, and says she does not want to lose. Ash and Cilan then became curious as to how she got Axew in the first place. She then explains that it was given to her by the old matriarch from her hometown, a place which specialized in raising {{type|Dragon}}d Pokémon. There, it was a traditional rite of passage for a young Trainer to be given a Pokémon, and to go on a journey where they would grow together. A Trainer had to raise the Axew he/she was given into an {{p|Haxorus}}, a proof that the Trainer had grown to fully understand its Pokémon and its heart. As they had already left their hometown for some time, Iris became concerned about how Axew was developing and thus requested to battle Cilan. She then realizes that Axew had disappeared.

Meanwhile, Axew stands on a thin branch, trying to pick a cluster of fruit dangling near the edge of the branch. As it inched closer and stretched out, Pikachu cries out in warning. A while later, Axew finally moves close enough and grabs one of the fruit. However, the branch it was standing on now bends threateningly low; as the stalk of the fruit cleaves from the tree, the branch springs up, and Axew loses balance, tumbling down into the bush below and into between the horns of a sleeping Pokémon. Alarmed, the gigantic purple centipede-like Pokémon awakens from its slumber and shakes its head rapidly and violently, trying to free Axew from its horns.

For a moment the {{t|Bug}} Pokémon tried to escape, Pikachu jumps off the tree and attacks it with {{m|Iron Tail}}. Enraged, it charges at Pikachu only to miss and send the tree behind Pikachu flying into the air. Pikachu tries to run away, and Axew attempts a Dragon Rage attack on its captor. However, once again, the attack explodes before it could be launched.

The group notice the explosion, and realizing where Pikachu and Axew were, they run towards it. Pikachu comes running in the opposite direction, and upon seeing Ash, he tries to explain what had happened. The gigantic bug Pokémon pops out from behind a bush and Axew is heard screaming, apparently being shaken wildly again. Ash checks his [[Pokédex]] and realizes it's called a {{p|Scolipede}}.

Scolipede appears in front of the group and begins chasing the group, firing {{m|Toxic}} globs that dissolves a large rock and a nearby tree. Ash and Cilan then attempt to battle it and rescue Axew, using Pansage and {{TP|Ash|Snivy}}. Pansage starts by firing Bullet Seed at its feet, and while the wild Scolipede finches, Snivy grabs its horns. However, Scolipede proved too strong against Snivy when it spun her around wildly, thereby causing her to faint from dizziness. Scolipede then continues its rampage. As it approaches Ash and Cilan, Iris steps in front of them and takes out another [[Poké Ball]], hesitating to send the Pokémon out. After Ash had reminded her about the urgency of the situation, she plucks up her courage and hurls the Poké Ball into the air, releasing a curled up Pokémon. Ash then checks his Pokédex, and it is revealed to be an {{p|Excadrill}}.

Iris begs the stationary Excadrill to assist her in saving Axew. However, after being ignored, she decides to help Axew herself and devises a plan. Pansage starts charging SolarBeam while Ash sends out {{AP|Tepig}}. Together with Pikachu, Tepig attacks Scolipede at its feet, delaying its advance and giving Cilan's Pansage time to launch its SolarBeam to stop the Scolipede in its tracks. Right from above, Iris grabs a vine and swings over Scolipede's head, grabbing Axew's leg and then landing safely. The team then celebrate; Ash recalling Tepig, and Cilan, his Pansage.

However, their celebration is short-lived, as Scolipede recovers and turns to Iris, ready to attack. It brushes its hind feet against the ground in preparation to charge, but doing so, it accidentally knocks Excadrill and sends it rolling away. Agitated, Excadrill {{m|Dig|burrows underground}} and surfaces, hitting Scolipede in the face. The two Pokémon stare at each other, eyes glowing with fury; a battle is about to ensue. Ash asks Iris to give commands, but Iris simply states that Excadrill will not listen to her, and as such, the team watches as Scolipede launches another Toxic attack at Excadrill. Excadrill, being a partial {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon, is not affected by {{type2|Poison}} attacks, and merely slaps the toxins away. Excadrill then uses {{m|Drill Run}}, before tossing a charging Scolipede into the sky and across the forest as it tries to use a counter-attack. Excadrill lets out a victorious roar, and as the group express their gratitude towards it, it stares into the sky for a while before grunting and returning back to its dormant drill-like state. Iris recalls Excadrill.

Cilan then encourages Iris to train at her own pace with both Axew and Excadrill, when Ash offers to battle them. Iris refuses again, telling Ash that if he wants to battle so badly, then he should battle with Pikachu. Taking her comment literally, Ash excitedly agrees and both Trainer and Pokémon stand across each other in the open ground, taking their places and ready to battle. Ash tells Pikachu to shock him with {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and subsequently ram him with {{m|Volt Tackle}}, to which the {{t|Electric}} Mouse Pokémon complies. Cilan comments that they both are a truly unique couple while Iris is awestruck that they took her seriously. Ash and Pikachu continue their electrifying battle while lighting up the entire forest, as both Iris and Cilan watch, speechless.

==Synopsis==

{{Ash}}, {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} are seen stopping beside a river to have lunch as they make their way to [[Nacrene City]]. As there will be a full moon later that night, Iris had picked berries in advance so that she could see the moon later. Meanwhile, Cilan is already cooking vegetable rice for the group, and prevents Ash from eating the berries. He then gives a bowl of Pokémon Food to both {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Axew}}. As Cilan makes final preparations for his meals, a {{p|Darumaka}} walks past and greets them.

Ash checks his [[Pokédex]] on Darumaka. Iris, adored by Darumaka's cuteness, walks up to it and starts playing with its eyebrows. Darumaka, however, is having none of it, and Iris is blasted with {{m|Flamethrower}}. Cilan then comments on how strong-willed Darumaka is, and how it is said to bring good luck. Oblivious to the group, an orange paw reaches out and grabs a bowl of Pokémon Food that Cilan had prepared earlier. As Pikachu turns around and realizes its bowl had disappeared, it thinks that Axew had eaten it and alerts Ash. However, Axew, backed by Iris, denies taking the food. As they were quarreling, the group suddenly realize that Darumaka is fast asleep.

Curious as to confirm what the Pokédex says about Darumaka not falling when it is sleeping, Iris pokes Darumaka sideways. True enough, Darumaka tethers back and forth on its bottom. While the group is now mesmerized by Darumaka's ability, the orange paw then grabs the other bowl of Pokémon food. Pikachu turns in time to see another Darumaka running away with its food. Axew turns around thereafter, and thinking that Pikachu ate both of the Pokémon food, starts fighting with it. Ash and Iris manage to separate both Pikachu and Axew, and Pikachu explains that Darumaka took the Pokémon food. However, Cilan points out that Darumaka had been sleeping throughout their conflict, and could not have taken any of their food.

Suddenly, another Darumaka appears, holding both bowls of Pokémon Food and Iris' berries. The group then finally realize that there are two Darumaka, and starts pursuing the Darumaka with the food. The sleeping Darumaka awakes instantly, uses Flamethrower between the group and its partner, before running away with its companion. Ash sends out {{AP|Oshawott}}, and commands it to use {{m|Water Gun}}. With a leap off the wall, the pair of Darumaka dodges the water attack, and executes two well coordinated Flamethrowers at Oshawott. Unable to dodge the attack, Oshawott took damage and fainted. The two Darumaka escapes.

Ash brings Oshawott to a [[Pokémon Center]], where it is attended to by [[Nurse Joy]] and her {{TP|Nurse Joy|Audino}}. Meanwhile, [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} of [[Team Rocket]] are dining at a café in a town near a river. With a snap of her finger, Jessie calls for the waiter, and asks for a cup of cappuccino, "as fast as a rocket". The waiter, apparently caught on to the word 'rocket', subsequently serves her 'the' cup of cappuccino, its cream taking on the shape of a bridge. With very clear intentions of what to do next, the cream is then stirred into the coffee.

The sky glows a reddish-orange as dawn approaches. Oshawott is fully healed and Ash recalls it into its [[Poké Ball]]. Iris passes a comment on the two Darumaka, and Nurse Joy subsequently reveals that together with a {{p|Darmanitan}}, the two Darumaka actually lived in harmony with the residents of the town they were in. However, the three Pokémon were not seen together anymore, and the two Darumaka suddenly started stealing food for no apparent reason. Seeming to have sidetracked from the Darumaka, Iris notices a [[clock tower]] in the middle of the city. Nurse Joy then explains to them that the bell of the tower had stopped ringing, and the tower would soon be demolished. Iris expressed regret when Ash's stomach started growling. Aware that they have not eaten after the Darumaka had stolen their food, the group stays at the Pokémon Center for dinner.

As there was a full moon on that night, Nurse Joy tells everyone that she will be preparing dumplings for them. Delighted, Ash and the group offer to help with the preparations. However, upon reaching the kitchen, the group were then greeted again by the two Darumaka, who were ready to escape with their dumplings. With much speed and agility, the two Zen Charm Pokémon jumped out of the window. Ash sends out {{AP|Pidove|Tranquill}} hoping to catch them, and at the same time to find out the reason behind the thefts. The two Darumaka continued jumping wildly and away from the group, and into an alley. They then jumped in opposite directions and split up at a T-junction.

Ash and Iris follows the Darumaka with the dumplings, while Cilan follows the other. Despite so, the two Darumaka eventually manages to evade the group, leaving them clueless as to where they had ran off to. When they regathered, Pidove gestured to the two Darumaka who were then sneaking into the clock tower. The group followed.

Deep into the night, the Team Rocket trio is seen standing on top of a bridge. A figure materializes from deep within the fog, cloaked as they were, carrying a briefcase. As the figure approaches them and close to Jessie, they break into small talk. Facing away from each other, Jessie briefly mentions keeping warm with 'a cup of cappuccino', a phrase that was used to establish a trust with the stranger. The stranger slowly puts down the briefcase and then instructs the trio to receive instructions when they arrive at Nacrene City. As she proceeds to take her leave, the chill wind picks up, together with Team Rocket's will and determination to succeed in their next mission.

Ash and the group chases after the two Darumaka up the staircase of the clock tower. On realizing that Ash is following closely behind, the two Darumaka panic and speed up. When the group reaches the top, they find the partially moonlit room empty, until the two Darumaka are seen pressed against the top of the wall in a shadowy corner of the room. Oblivious to Ash, the two quickly jumps off the wall and aims two coordinated Flamethrowers at him, to which he dodges just in time. However, in the heat of the action, the ladder at the back of the room caught fire, setting the room ablaze with reddish-orange sparks.

Ash sends out Oshawott, and the Sea Otter Pokémon aims its Water Gun at the burning ladder. As the flames started to extinguish, the ladder collapses, and the two Darumaka jumps up, once again aiming their Flamethrowers at Ash. Immediately, Ash tells Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and in a clash of fire and electricity, an explosion follows. Ash then commands Oshawott to attack the two Darumaka with Water Gun, an attack which hit and sent both Darumaka flying into the air. However, the pair countered by {{m|Rest|Resting}} while they were being hit, and they landed softly, tethering about their bottoms like an egg, upright on its broader end.

As Ash and the group inch closer to inspect, the two Darumaka suddenly wake up and jumps across to them. When Ash and Iris tells them they did not want to battle them, the two stare at each other blankly. Cilan adds that they were only trying to find out why the two of them were stealing food. The two Darumaka then decides to trust the group, and waddles across to underneath the hole which the ladder one stood. As they point to the top of the hole, Ash understands that they both want to get to the top, and decides to help them. With Cilan's assistance, Ash manages to climb to the top of the hole and sends out {{AP|Snivy}}. Grabbing Pikachu first, then the two Darumaka, Snivy was able to bring Ash and his companions safely to the top.

Before the group could proceed, Iris notices that there is a significant amount of heat generated from the floor above. The group then ascends a ladder to find a Darmanitan under a large bell, its {{a|Zen Mode}} having being activated. Ash checks his Pokédex. Cilan explains that during Zen Mode, Darmanitan's special attack increase significantly, giving rise to its {{t|Psychic}} abilities. Its physical attacks, however, are compromised.

Iris complains about the heat generated by the Darmanitan. Meanwhile, the two Darumaka unwrap the bag with the dumplings, allowing Darmanitan to guide the dumplings to its mouth using {{m|Psychic}}. Ash then realize that the Darumaka are stealing food to feed the immobile Darmanitan, while Cilan notices that as long as Darmanitan is in Zen Mode and is using its Psychic abilities, it will generate a lot of heat. Iris questions why Darmanitan does not change back into its Standard Mode despite having being fed dumplings, and the two Darumaka returns with the answer - a thick metal rod in the shape of a question mark. Cilan suspects the rod to be used as a hook, and the group soon realize that the bell Darmanitan is sitting under is actually floating!

Cilan extrapolates that Darmanitan actually prevented the heavy bell from dropping to the bottom of the clock tower when the hook had broken. Incapable of motion, Darmanitan had activated its Zen Mode, in which it used Psychic to levitate the bell. However, that also meant that it was not able to eat, causing the two Darumaka to steal food to feed their immobile companion. Iris then applauded their efforts, causing the two Darumaka to smile.

Suddenly, Darmanitan started intensively glowing red, prompting Ash and his friends to take action. Throwing a Poké Ball each, Ash and Cilan send out {{AP|Tepig}} and {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}} respectively. When the hook was thrown into the air, Tepig sprayed it with {{m|Ember}}, but nothing significant happened. Immediately, Darmanitan started emitting fire. The two Darumaka then offered to help out. Once again, Pansage threw the hook into the air, and Tepig used Ember. This time, however, combined with the Flamethrowers of the two Darumaka, the iron hook glowed red-hot. Pansage, under Cilan's orders, used {{m|Bullet Seed}} and shaped the hook into the shape of an 'S'. Ash promptly sends out Oshawott. With Water Gun, Oshawott cooled the hook, and it dropped onto the floor. Pikachu inspects the hook and picks it up, satisfied.

Ash and his friends then question on how to get the hook to the top of the bell. In response, Darmanitan uses Psychic on Ash, Pikachu and the hook, causing them to levitate to the top of the bell. Ash grabs the hook from Pikachu, and hangs it at the top of the bar. He then reaches out and attempts to grab the bell handle, while Iris and Cilan cheers him on. Just before Ash grabs the handle, Darmanitan deactivates its Zen Mode, and Ash, Pikachu and the bell falls... right into the hands of Darmanitan. With a great upward thrust, the bell now in mid-air, Darmanitan performs a series of leaps to the top of the bar, and grabs the bell before it could drop any further. Iris and Cilan gasped in awe, apparently surprised at what had happened. Ash, followed by Pikachu, jumps off the bell and subsequently thanks Darmanitan. Darmanitan winks, and subsequently places the bell back into the hook.

With a triumphant leap off the bar, Darmanitan was rejoined by the two Darumaka. They approach the group, grateful for what they have done for them. Ash advises the two Darumaka not to steal anymore food, and they replied with a sheepish grin.

Ash and the group are now headed to Nacrene City. As they walk towards onto a bridge, Nurse Joy stops them and informs them that the clock tower will not be demolished, only repaired. To their delight, Nurse Joy also informs them that the Darmanitan and the two Darumaka have made the clock tower their home. Cilan then expressed happiness at the thought of Pokémon and people living in harmony. The group then spots Darmanitan and the two Darumaka standing at the top of the clock tower, smiling and waving at them. The group bids the three Pokémon a final goodbye, before setting off for the [[Nacrene Gym|gym]] in Nacrene City.

==Synopsis==
After obtaining his {{badge|Trio|first badge}} from the [[Striaton City]] [[Striaton Gym|Gym]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are now heading towards [[Nacrene City]]. Meanwhile, Ash's stomach began to growl and he said that he is hungry. {{an|Iris}} subsequently proposes stopping for lunch and volunteers to search for food. Ash and {{an|Cilan}} then wait at a clearing in the forest. Iris soon returns with a basket of fruits and berries, and before she and Ash could start eating, Cilan stops them. Putting his cooking skills to use, Cilan prepares lunch for the group using the fruits and berries Iris had picked. Ash and Iris then complement Cilan on his wonderful cooking. Pleased with their response, Cilan tells them that he prepared seconds, causing Ash and Iris to rush to the cooking area. However, when the two of them realize that there isn't any food left, they alerted Cilan, causing him to be as equally puzzled as them. While they were pondering, Iris notices that the grass is moving, hinting that something is hiding amongst the grass, and moving away from them.

Ash follows the trail of disturbed grass leading him to an empty clearing, where a {{p|Snivy}} is seen eating one of the flour-like cakes Cilan had prepared. Ash instantly throws a [[Poké Ball]] but it soon breaks free. Sweeping the Poké Ball back to Ash with its tail, the Snivy quickly escapes by running into the grass. Realizing that only a [[wild Pokémon]] can be captured by a Poké Ball, Ash is determined to make the wild Snivy a part of his team, and chases after it.

In another empty clearing, the group finds Snivy almost finishing the flour-like cake. Ash promptly commands his {{AP|Pikachu}} to do a {{m|Quick Attack}}, in which Snivy evaded almost instantly. Cilan then tells Ash about Snivy's agility and intelligence; its cool demeanor emphasized by it finishing the cake slowly and calmly, then beaming at them. Taunted, Ash tells Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but Snivy prevents Pikachu from attacking by using {{m|Attract}}. While Pikachu was being infatuated with Snivy, Iris deduced that the wild Snivy is a female. Immediately, Snivy uses {{m|Vine Whip}}. While its first two hits manages to hit Pikachu, the subsequent three hits were blocked by Ash when he suddenly shields Pikachu. Shocked by how Ash protected Pikachu, Snivy escapes using {{m|Leaf Storm}}. Cilan then commented on Snivy's demonstration of high level competency and ability, causing both Iris and Cilan to speculate that Snivy may have been abandoned as it was refusing to obey a Trainer whom Snivy thought was unworthy of her. Ash then becomes even more determined to earn the respect of Snivy, and sends out {{AP|Pidove|Tranquill}} to find it.

Meanwhile, {{an|Giovanni}} informs the [[Team Rocket trio]]—[[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}}—that [[Team Plasma|another secret organization]] had started activities in the [[Unova]] region as well. Snivy is quietly observing them when James talked about strengthening their forces and not only with {{TP|Jessie|one|Woobat}} Pokémon. Just when Snivy decides to walk away, Jessie notices it and decides to capture it. Jessie throws a Poké Ball but Snivy gracefully dodges it. Meowth then pursues Snivy and uses {{m|Scratch}}, but Snivy evades it completely, causing the attack to land on a rock instead.

Snivy, having escaped from Team Rocket (and previously Ash), feels tired and lies on some rocks to rest. It recalls the earlier incident when Ash protected Pikachu, before closing its eyes and falling asleep. Pidove manages to find Snivy and flies back to Ash to inform him. Ash follows Pidove and finally finds Snivy at the top of a rock formation, looking down at him. Ash challenges Snivy to another battle and {{AP|Oshawott}} comes out of his Poké Ball, indicating that he wants to battle with Snivy. Snivy, in an attempt to stop them from ascending the rock formation, uses its tail to sweep some rocks down. However, Ash, Pikachu and Oshawott managed to evade the falling rocks by hiding behind a huge rock, and was then successful in reaching the top (Oshawott riding on Ash's head).

Ash commands Oshawott to use {{m|Water Gun}} and Snivy dodges it with a series of jumps. Meanwhile, Iris and Cilan finally make it to the top of the rock formation. Iris, once again, reminds Ash about type-compatibilities ({{t|Water}} going against {{t|Grass}}), while Cilan praises Oshawott's fighting spirit. Snivy continues the battle with {{m|Vine Whip}} but Oshawott blocks it with his shell. Ash then tells Oshawott to use {{m|Razor Shell}}. For a second time, Snivy used its Attract which prevents Oshawott from attacking, causing it to be infatuated. Snivy then uses Vine Whip and Oshawott falls onto the ground. Before another Vine Whip could be executed, Ash recalls his Oshawott. Snivy runs away again.

As Ash and his friends follow Snivy with the help of Pidove, Iris complains about Ash's persistence and stubbornness. However, Cilan reassures her that it's only due to Ash's willpower. Subsequently, Snivy is seen jumping from tree to tree. Ash then tells Pikachu to get onto his shoulder, grabs a vine and swings from vine to vine. While crossing a muddy swamp, Snivy lands on a lily pad. At the same time, however, one of the vines Ash had grabbed started giving way, and together both Ash and Pikachu fell. At that instant, Snivy jumps away from the lily pad, and both Ash and Pikachu land on it. Due to their heavy weight, however, the lily pad started to flood, and they both started sinking into the muddy water. Ash tells Pikachu to get on his shoulder while Snivy watches. As Ash sank further, he tells Pikachu to get on top of his head. While it seemed like they were about to continue sinking all the way, Iris and Cilan throws him a vine and pulls them out of the swamp. Seeing that Ash was finally out of the swamp, Snivy walks away. Iris and Cilan then discourages Ash on getting Snivy but Ash is still determined to have her captured.

Snivy approaches a river and started drinking from it, when she sees Pidove flying in the sky. As Ash approaches, it gives a grin of confidence. Ash then sends out {{AP|Tepig}}, but Iris and Cilan were worried that Tepig might be affected by Attract as well, despite its advantageous typing. Ash commands Tepig to use {{m|Ember}}, to which Snivy dodges. True to Iris's and Cilan's worries, Snivy uses Attract once again and Tepig becomes infatuated. Ash had no choice but to recall Tepig, allowing the successful Snivy to spite him with a wave and a smile. Pidove then requests to battle. Ash tells Pidove to use {{m|Gust}}, but Snivy was still able to dodge it and perform Attract. At that instant, Pidove attempts a Quick Attack to dodge the Attract, but she was still hit by it. This time, however, Attract had seemingly no effect on Pidove, which led Iris and Cilan to conclude that Pidove is also female. Snivy then performs a Vine Whip and a Leaf Storm, in which was completely dodged by Pidove. With a combination of Gust, {{m|Air Cutter}} and Quick Attack executed by Pidove, Snivy was weakened. Ash immediately throws a Poké Ball in an attempt to capture her, but Snivy breaks free again. Pidove was then told to use Quick Attack, but Snivy counters it with Vine Whip. Ash then tells Pidove to use Air Cutter. Unable to dodge or run away, Snivy was hit and damaged badly. Nevertheless, Snivy manages to get up on its feet. With a wave of determination, Ash threw a Poké Ball at Snivy. Knowing its trainer was competent and worthy of its capture, Snivy gave a small, humble smile, before allowing the Poké Ball to hit it, turning itself into a mass of red energy that disappeared into the red-white sphere. Snivy was finally captured.

Delighted at his success, Ash sends out Snivy and informs it that together they will be competing in the [[Unova League]]. Snivy smiles.
