Zachary Evans

Zachary

Zachary Evans (Japanese: ヒロト Hiroto) is a character of the day in Wings N' Things.

Ash and his friends met up with Zachary while on their way to Ecruteak City. When they met him, he was in the middle of some problems. His Yanma would always break the windows of the stores of the town where he lives, by beating its wings. The town was furious by the Bug Pokémon's actions, and Mr. Evans made his son get rid of it. Zachary became upset, remembering that he found it one day during a storm. He released it, but after realizing what he had done, he ran off to find it.

Unfortunately, Team Rocket found it first, and were using it to break windows. Seeing Yanma with them, the town assumed that Zachary was with them. But he proved them wrong by defeating the trio with his Yanma. The town forgave Zachary, who successfully trained Yanma not to break store windows. Everything then went back to normal.

Pokémon

		Yanma
		Yanma was found injured in the rain by Zachary, when he and his father were walking home. They took it home and nursed it back to health, but when it got better, Yanma became a problem. It couldn't control the sonic aspect of its wings and broke nearly every window in the town, angering the villagers. Mr. Evans told Zachary he had to return it to the wild, and Zachary had little choice but to agree. He left food in the woods for Yanma to distract it, and Zachary ran off, leaving Yanma behind. Yanma was then found by Ash and his friend. It stole Ash's hat, but once Ash got his hat back, it flew off. Yanma tried to look for Zachary when Team Rocket suddenly found it and trapped it, deciding to use it in one of their evil schemes. They shattered all the windows in Zachary's hometown and created their own window company at the same time, earning them loads of money. They were about to repeat this scheme, when Ash and his friends including some town citizens spotted them. Team Rocket threatened to smash the stain glass window in the Pokémon Center, so Ash and Misty could not battle them. Zachary then decided to return Yanma back into its Poké Ball, which worked. Ash and Misty's Pokémon were hurt, so Zachary used his Yanma in its first battle ever, sending Team Rocket blasting off. In the end, Yanma was able to control its wings during a Sonic Boom attack. Yanma's known moves are Sonic Boom, Double Team, and Tackle.
