Blurb

Ash is alone in the forest after losing at the Snowbelle Gym. Serena tracks him down, but they end up in a shouting match, and she runs off after angrily telling Ash to start acting like himself again!

Soon, a snowstorm sets in, and Ash takes shelter in a cave with some frightened Pokémon. He gets into trouble while trying to help a stranded Spewpa—but Greninja shows up just in time, and then shifts effortlessly into Ash-Greninja to rescue Spewpa!

When our heroes reunite, Ash promises not to overdo it again—a promise Greninja soon has to enforce when Ash learns the Kalos League is coming to Lumiose City!

Trivia

File:Title Card XY Ash V2.png
The title card segment focuses on Ash for this episode
  • Poké TV: "Pokémon Unbelievable" focusing on Ash's Greninja and its Ash-Greninja form.
  • In the Japanese version, no one reads the title card of this episode.
  • Ash and Wulfric narrate the preview for the next episode.
  • Ash's Greninja remains outside of its Poké Ball for the entire episode.
  • A remix of XY&Z is used as background music in this episode.
  • As of this episode, Serena has been in her current outfit for more episodes than her original outfit.
  • The backpack Ash wore as a child, as seen in the flashbacks, has the same color scheme as the one he used in the original series.
  • The sound of a Mega Evolved Pokémon reverting back to its regular form is used when Ash-Greninja returns back to its normal form.
  • This episode's dub title is a reference to the saying "can't see the forest for the trees".

Errors

  • In the dub, when Pikachu takes out Ash's Flying-type Poké Balls, Talonflame's voice is mixed together with Noivern's voice.
  • Like in Championing a Research Battle! when Greninja gets ready to reach its final Ash-Greninja form, the star shape on its leg is cream instead of blue for a split second.
  • When Ash-Greninja is crouched down at the bottom of the mountain, the triangles next to its eyes are dark blue instead of white.
  • When Ash reunites with Pikachu, the brim of his hat is colored red instead of white for a moment.
  • When Jessie commands Gourgeist to use Dark Pulse on Pikachu, the tips of her third and fourth fingers are cut off when her arm is fully extended.
  • Before Team Rocket blast off, Jessie's lipstick is missing.

Dub edits

  • An instrumental of Stand Tall was heard as background music.
