From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Ash's Gible (Japanese: サトシのフカマル Satoshi's Fukamaru) is the fifth Pokémon caught by Ash in the Sinnoh region.
History
Ash first met Gible in DP156. Wilma explained that Gible was trying his best to learn the move Draco Meteor. But for some reason, the move always failed. Instead of exploding in the sky, it always fell to the ground. Most of the time, it fell on Piplup. Ash wanted to help the wild Gible learn Draco Meteor and achieve his dreams. Gible successfully used the move against Team Rocket but has yet to do it since. By the end of the episode, Gible decided to start following Ash.
In DP157, Ash met with Gible again. Barry also was interested in catching him. However, Gible decided to let Ash capture him after he saw what Ash would do to protect him. After that, Barry demanded a battle with Ash and his new Gible and was able to defeat Gible with Empoleon.
Like Grotle when it was a Turtwig, Gible seems to enjoy chomping on Ash's head. His grip is strong and he needs to be massaged before letting go. He also seems to like gnawing on Jessie's hair. Gible also has the ability to devour metal.
