(Japanese: 夢の跡地！ムンナとムシャーナ！！ Site of Dreams! Munna and Musharna!) is the sixth episode of the Best Wishes series, and the 663rd episode of the Pokémon anime. It aired in Japan on October 21, 2010.
Synopsis
Ash decides to challenge all three Gym Leaders instead of choosing one to receive the badge. In order to walk away victorious, Ash must win against at least two out the the three brothers. In the previous episode Ash won against Pod and his Baoppu, but lost the match with Corn and his Hiyappu. When the episode begins, Ash and Oshawott are battling against Dent and his Yanappu. Dent's Yanappu gathers light with the sprout on its head, preparing to fire SolarBeam at Oshawott. Quickly, Oshawott grabs the keratin shell on its belly and deflects the attack up to the ceiling. The crowd stares in disbelief; the cheerleaders and the three gym leaders gasp in awe. Dent was full of praise for Oshawott. Yanappu starts a flurry of Bullet Seed attacks, but Oshawott blocks them, using its shell as a shield. Upon seeing this, Ash commands Oshawott to use Shell Blade.
Yanappu starts off with a flurry of Bullet Seed attacks, but Oshawott once again, deflected them with ease, its shell acting as a shield. Confident, Ash commands Oshawott to use Shell Blade. Oshawott's shell glows blue for awhile; then, Oshawott jumps to strike Yanappu. Yanappu counters with Bullet Seed. Oshawott starts to panic and loses its grip on the sea shell. Oshawott falls to the ground and Ash tells Oshawott to retrieve the lost shell. Yanappu fires more Bullet Seed attacks to prevent Oshawott from doing so. Oshawott tried to dodge the seeds but was eventually hit by one; this caused Oshawott to fall down. Dent calls out "It's Tasting Time!" and the cheerleaders go wild with excitement. He says that Ash uses simple, deducible attack patterns and has no compatibility with Oshawott, unlike the bond he shares with Yanappu. Dent then comments regarding Ash's poor choice of Pokemon, since Oshawott is a water type against Yanappu, a grass type. Ash counters by saying that type is irrelevant. Then he tells Oshawott to aim its Water Gun at the wall. Everyone in the room is confused by this command, including Oshawott. Its Water Gun bounced off the wall, between the rocks, and towards its shell. The shell flew in to the air, and Oshawott caught it. Oshawott used Shell Blade and it hit; Yanappu was caught by surprise by the attack. Dent then tells Yanappu to use Bite. At that instant, Ash tells Oshawott to use Shell Blade. Both Pokémon rush towards each other, ready to attack. Immediately a bang was heard and both Pokémon seemed to deliver a glancing blow. They faced away from each other and stood there motionless. For a moment it seemed like both Pokémon could continue to fight, but Yanappu fainted. A wave of disappointment washed over the cheerleaders.
Oshawott sits on the ground to rest, along with Pikachu and Tepig. Ash is now victorious, having defeated two of the three Sanyou City Gym Leaders.
Ash is awarded the Tri Badge by Dent, Pod and Corn respectively. Eagerly, Ash asked for Iris's opinion on the battle. She teases him for battling all three of the gym leaders. Her words angered Ash; she quickly left the gym without him. Ash decides to head to Sanyou City's Pokémon Center to rest up his Pokémon for his next gym battle, while Dent happily watches from a far.
Meanwhile, Team Rocket begins investigating the building ruins at the Site of Dreams. Taking out a portable machine to analyze the area while searching it themselves. This causes a disturbance of energy in the area and awakens a dormant Pokémon deep inside. Massive waves of glowing pink aura flow into town and begin to disrupt the town's Pokémon, especially a Trainer's Munna.
Ash arrived at the Sanyou City Pokémon Center and hands his injured Pokémon over to Nurse Joy, whom he mistakenly greets as the Joy he met back in Karakusa Town. Ash is shown a family portrait of Unova's identical Joys. Dent immediately appears as Nurse Joy asks him about his battle at the Sanyou Gym and answered in his place, complimenting Ash's abilities.
Dent requests to talk to Ash privately and the two head over to the waiting room. Dent begins to pester Ash with random questions, with Ash's approval first, before a Joy calls to the front desk. A Tabunne comes by shortly to return Ash's Pokémon and he quickly learns from Dent that Joy use Tabunne as their helpers in place of Chansey in the Unova Region.
Iris dashes into the Pokémon Center seconds later with a glowing and incapacitated Kibago, alerting Ash, Dent and Joy that a mysterious pink light that was filling the city had consumed it and left Kibago, along with all other town's Pokémon, unconscious. Just as she finishes, a Professor flees into the Center and spots the glowing Kibago.
She commands her Munna to use Dream Eater on it and manages to awaken it. After consuming it's dream, it released it into a smoky cloud depicting it. In the dream, it evolved into an Onondo, then immediately into an Ononokus. The Professor introduces herself as Makomo, and explains that she specializes in mysterious energy waves such as these then leads Ash, Iris and Dent outside, where they meet up with an alternate looking Jenny, who asks Ash to put Pikachu in it's Poké Ball.
Professor Makomo places Ash's hat over Pikachu's head to prevent Pikachu from being affected by the pink light. The group gets into Jenny's squad car, where she explains the story of how building at the Site of Dreams was demolished. Originally, she had worked there as a Professor, with a Munna and Pokémon that she experimented on, but treated lovingly. One day a group of men in trench coats came and attacked Musharna, causing it to go berserk and destroy the area. Musharna was nowhere to be found. Musharna was determined to be the cause of the mysterious energy waves. Just as she finishes her story, they spot the massive amounts of energy pouring from the Site of Dreams. There they meet up with the disguised Team Rocket, who quickly unmask themselves. During introduction, Makomo realizes that Team Rocket were the cause of Musharna's awakening and the group begins to frantically search for it. Musharna reveals itself, but Team Rocket attacks Makomo and Ash immediately and Makomo captures it. Ash turns his hat around and orders Pikachu to attack them with Makomo's Munna joining in quickly. They easily free Musharna from Team Rocket's grasp and it clears out the aura waves from the area as Team Rocket attempts to attack it. While no longer having the upper-hand, Team Rocket quickly uses Gust to stir up sand and flee the scene before they could be arrested by Jenny. Makomo embraces Mursharna and the two make up, thanking Ash and co. while Giovanni tells Team Rocket that their mission was a sucess as the data sent had been received and that a special team are already working on analysing the data.
Dent decides to leave the Gym and bids farewell to his brothers, who wish him the best. Dent then leaves to travel alongside Ash and Iris. The three head out for Shippou City.
