==Plot==
While traveling to their next destination, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} decide to take a rest in the clearing of the forest. Ash decides [[party|to release his Pokémon]] to play. Despite having recently evolved, {{AP|Bayleef}}'s affections towards Ash still exist, and she doesn't seem to realize that her body is much larger than it was when she was a {{p|Chikorita}} and Ash can't take her charging up to him. So upon releasing, she runs towards Ash and unintentionally {{m|tackle}}s him. Bayleef is sort of confused but still doesn't understand that her size is the problem. Later they play a fetching game. {{AP|Noctowl}} carries the stick some ways and Ash's other Pokémon follow. Obviously Bayleef is determined to win and she does so very easily, her size knocking the other Pokémon away. She then runs to Ash and again tackles him accidentally sending Ash towards a nearby stream. She starts to get the picture now.
While traveling to their next destination, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} decide to take a rest in a clearing in the forest. Ash decides [[party|to release his Pokémon]] to play, but the newly-evolved {{AP|Bayleef}} unintentionally {{m|Tackle}}s him, failing to understand that her increased size is a problem. Later, they play a fetching game; Bayleef, determined to win, uses her size to her advantage, knocking the other Pokémon away and easily winning. She then runs to Ash and again tackles him, accidentally sending Ash into a nearby stream. Ash is upset and scolds Bayleef, but {{an|Brock}} tells him that Bayleef only just [[Evolution|evolved]] and it will take some time for her to control her power. At lunchtime, Bayleef tries calmly approaching Ash, but he misinterprets her intentions and tells her to stay away. Hurt by this, Bayleef runs off without anyone knowing. While they are eating, {{an|Misty}} notices that Bayleef is gone and tells Ash. Meanwhile, at the side of a river, Bayleef angrily kicks a rock towards some bushes, provoking a swarm of {{p|Beedrill}}. As she runs, she steps on a loose rock and falls into the river.  


Finally it's lunch time and Ash starts carry some food towards the table but he's momentarily distracted by {{AP|Totodile}}, who seems to want some. Bayleef comes by as well, but she knows that if she runs to Ash, Ash will scold at her. So she walks up to Ash. Ash sees her and just scolds at Bayleef anyways, telling her that {{an|Brock}} worked hard to make the food, and he'll spill it if she tackles him. He then tells Bayleef to 'get away and stay away'. Bayleef is really hurt by Ash's harsh words and runs off without Ash knowing. While they are eating, {{an|Misty}} notices that Bayleef is gone, and tells Ash.
Later, an old woman, [[Haruno]], with a {{p|Machoke}} notices an unconscious Bayleef on the shore and decides to take her in. Bayleef wakes up near a fireplace under a blanket. Haruno and her Machoke present Bayleef with a bowl of cream stew, which she enjoys. The old woman offers to help Bayleef find her {{pkmn|Trainer}}, but Bayleef, believing that Ash no longer cares for her, refuses. The old woman says that Bayleef is welcome to stay with her and the other Pokémon living there, and she agrees to, just as a {{p|Bellossom}} and {{p|Skiploom}} enter the room. Bayleef proceeds to befriend Bellossom and Skiploom.


Bayleef comes to a river and kicks a rock towards it in anger. Then she kicks another rock towards some bush, causing some {{p|Beedrill}} to come out and chase after her. She runs but she steps on a loose rock and falls into the river.
Ash begins searching for Bayleef, but he fails to understand why she ran away. Misty promptly tells Ash off for scolding Bayleef earlier. Just then, {{AP|Pikachu}} gets a scent and the group follows it, only to find the place where Bayleef fell into the river. Ash is now overcome with guilt over how he treated Bayleef and becomes determined to save her. They walk further down the river and find a house. Ash calls at the door, but receives no answer. The group then notices the old lady, her Pokemon and Ash's Bayleef playing in the gardens. Ash rushes towards Bayleef, but Skiploom Tackles Ash, preventing him from stepping on the flowers. The old woman informs the group that they are not in a public garden. Ash apologizes and explains that he was trying to find Bayleef. Ash begins to walk towards his Pokémon, but Bayleef rebuffs his apology by violently slapping his hand with her leaf.  


An old woman is walking along the river with a {{p|Machoke}} carrying some flowers. She notices Bayleef on the shore, unconscious and decides to take her in. Bayleef wakes up, near a fireplace under a blanket. She looks around and the old woman comes in with Machoke and offers Bayleef a bowl of cream stew which she enjoys. The old woman offers to help Bayleef find her trainer but Bayleef, believing Ash to no longer care for her, refuses to and the old woman says that Bayleef is welcome to stay with her and the other Pokémon living there. Bayleef looks around in the room, noticing a {{p|Bellossom}} and {{p|Skiploom}}. The old woman introduces them and they become friends.
Haruno introduces herself to the group and invites them for some tea. She suggests that the group stay over while Ash and Bayleef repair their friendship, and Ash accepts her hospitality. Misty and Brock notice the tea is particularly aromatic. Haruno explains that she and her Pokémon enjoy gardening and tending to the many herbs. Ash spots an opportunity, but Bayleef sees through his attempt to be likeable and continues watering the flowers elsewhere. Brock tell Ash to stop chasing Bayleef around, and focus on bringing her to him. Misty suggests that Brock take his own advice when it comes to girls, and the barbed comment wounds Brock. Ash attempts to lure Bayleef with a plateful of fruit and a brush, but she simply ignores the bribes. As the Pokémon play with each other, Ash is feeling disappointed with himself. Haruno reassures Ash, and she likens friendship to growing a flower, which cheers him up.


Meanwhile, Ash is searching around for Bayleef unable to understand why she ran away when Misty tells Ash off for how he spoke to Bayleef earlier. {{AP|Pikachu}} gets a scent and they follow it. They come up to the broken off part where Bayleef fell into the river. Ash is now filled with guilt over how he treated Bayleef and is determined to save her. They walk further more down almost giving up, then {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} notices a house. They go up to it and Ash knocks on the door. He tries a couple times and Misty sees there's a garden just around the house. They go over there, seeing the old lady, Machoke, Bellossom, Skiploom, and Bayleef. Ash goes up to Bayleef but Skiploom tackles Ash, preventing him from stepping on the flowers. The old lady goes up to them and exchange names. The old lady, [[Haruno]], takes care of the garden along with the others. Ash explains he's trying to get Bayleef back and tries apologizing to her, but Bayleef refuses. Brock suggests the {{pkmn|food}} trick, but Misty comments "How's that going to work?". Ash tries it anyways, carrying a plate of fruits. Bayleef still refuses Ash.
Meanwhile, {{TRT}} sits in a tree and they set their sights on stealing Haruno's Pokémon. [[James]] is keen to use the Pokemon to establish their own edible garden, but [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} dismiss the idea as too much work. The trio makes their presence known when they show up in a [[Team Rocket's mechas|huge Bayleef robot]]. As everyone flees, Team Rocket replicates the {{m|Vine Whip}} attack to capture Skiploom, Bellossom, Pikachu, and Bayleef. Haruno pleads for her Pokémon to be returned, but Team Rocket are determined to make their getaway. The robo-Bayleef stand onto two legs and prepares to crush Haruno, luckily Machoke rescues the old woman from harm. Team Rocket rushes off with their catches, but Ash pursues them. He finds a path to higher ground, allowing him to jump onto the leaf of the robot's head. Team Rocket abruptly stops the robot in an attempt to throw Ash off, but Ash is instead thrown to the container where the stolen {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are. Ash tries to break it and then pry the container out, but with no success. Ash begs Bayleef to help him out, but she still refuses. However, after Ash’s determination, she reconsiders and pries the container out by charging at it on one side, freeing the Pokémon. Ash has Pikachu and Bayleef work together to bring the robot down. Team Rocket tries to have the robot use Vine Whip again, but Bayleef cuts the vines with {{m|Razor Leaf}}. Pikachu then uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}, sending the trio blasting off.


Haruno and the gang sits down for some [[tea]], Ash still trying to figure out a way to get Bayleef back. Seeing that Bayleef and Skiploom are watering the flowers, Ash tries again this time he's trying to help out Bayleef. Stubborn as she is, again she still refuses. Ash starts to plead but she attacks Ash with a swift motion of her leaf. They are interrupted when {{TRT}} shows up in a [[Team Rocket's mechas|huge Bayleef robot]] and chases them down.
Haruno gives her thanks, and Ash apologizes for causing her trouble. He then apologizes to Bayleef for being inconsiderate. Bayleef promptly starts to run to him, but then controls herself and lowers her head sadly to apologize for Tackling him before. Brock notes that Bayleef has learned some self-control, and Ash gets down on his knees and tells Bayleef that she should be proud of herself. Bayleef puts her front paws in Ash's hands, but ends up mounting him. Everyone is surprised, and Brock tells Ash that Bayleef has just learned {{m|Body Slam}}. Ash congratulates Bayleef on her achievement, and the gang prepare to continue on to [[Olivine City]] and Ash's next [[Gym]] match.
 
Team Rocket uses the {{m|Vine Whip}} attack to snag Skiploom, Bellossom, Pikachu and Bayleef. Haruno tries to talk them into stopping but she ends up in front of the robot's path. Machoke makes the move and gets her out of the way. Team Rocket then flees but Ash pursues them. He finds a path to higher ground and the jumps onto the big robot. Landing on the leaf on the head. Team Rocket makes the robot simply just stomp to throw Ash around which is successful, but only resulting in throwing Ash to the container where the stolen {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are. Ash sees in and tires to break it, but it's tempered glass. The others help and Ash starts to try to pry the container out. Ash starts to persuade Bayleef to help him out, but she won't accept. But after seeing how hard Ash is try to help her, she understands that Ash does care. She starts to help in prying the container out by bashing on one side. The plan works and all the Pokémon become free. Ash tells Bayleef to use {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut a side of it and Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} to shock the inside. This knocks the huge bot down.
 
They climb down the behemoth. However, Team Rocket isn't going to give up, they use Vine Whip again, but Bayleef cuts the vines with Razor Leaf. Pikachu then delivers the Thunderbolt to blow them into the sky.
 
Haruno gives her thanks, and Ash apologizes for causing the problems in the first place. Ash then apologizes to Bayleef for being so inconsiderate, and Bayleef starts to run to him but controls herself and then puts her head down sadly to apologize for tackling him before. Brock notes that Bayleef has certainly learned some self control, and Ash gets down on his knees and tells Bayleef that she should be proud of herself. Bayleef puts her front paws in Ash's hands, but ends up lifting herself up and ends up on top of him. Everyone is surprised, and Brock tells Ash that Bayleef has just learned {{m|Body Slam}}. Ash congratulates Bayleef on her achievement, and the gang prepare to continue on to [[Olivine City]] and Ash's next Gym Battle.

Blurb

Taking a rest from their exhausting expedition, our heroes settle down in a small field near a stream to enjoy a mid-day meal. Ash releases his Pokémon from their Poké Balls so they too can enjoy a well deserved break. Overly excited to see Ash, Bayleef runs towards him at full-tilt. Inadvertently, Bayleef uses Tackle Attack and knocks Ash for a loop. When Bayleef's uncontrollable affection becomes too much for Ash, he looses his temper and says something spiteful. Ash tells Bayleef to go away and stay away! When Ash can't find Bayleef after lunch, the gang goes on a search and rescue mission. With Pikachu following Bayleef's scent, the crew winds up at an old woman's house. She explains how she found Bayleef, hurt and weak near the river's bank. When Ash tries to re-claim his Pokémon, Bayleef simply ignores him. It is clear Bayleef would rather stay with the kind old woman and her Pokémon than continue the journey with Ash. Will Ash be able to win back Bayleef's trust and affection?

Plot

While traveling to their next destination, Ash and his friends decide to take a rest in a clearing in the forest. Ash decides to release his Pokémon to play, but the newly-evolved Bayleef unintentionally Tackles him, failing to understand that her increased size is a problem. Later, they play a fetching game; Bayleef, determined to win, uses her size to her advantage, knocking the other Pokémon away and easily winning. She then runs to Ash and again tackles him, accidentally sending Ash into a nearby stream. Ash is upset and scolds Bayleef, but Brock tells him that Bayleef only just evolved and it will take some time for her to control her power. At lunchtime, Bayleef tries calmly approaching Ash, but he misinterprets her intentions and tells her to stay away. Hurt by this, Bayleef runs off without anyone knowing. While they are eating, Misty notices that Bayleef is gone and tells Ash. Meanwhile, at the side of a river, Bayleef angrily kicks a rock towards some bushes, provoking a swarm of Beedrill. As she runs, she steps on a loose rock and falls into the river.

Later, an old woman, Haruno, with a Machoke notices an unconscious Bayleef on the shore and decides to take her in. Bayleef wakes up near a fireplace under a blanket. Haruno and her Machoke present Bayleef with a bowl of cream stew, which she enjoys. The old woman offers to help Bayleef find her Trainer, but Bayleef, believing that Ash no longer cares for her, refuses. The old woman says that Bayleef is welcome to stay with her and the other Pokémon living there, and she agrees to, just as a Bellossom and Skiploom enter the room. Bayleef proceeds to befriend Bellossom and Skiploom.

Ash begins searching for Bayleef, but he fails to understand why she ran away. Misty promptly tells Ash off for scolding Bayleef earlier. Just then, Pikachu gets a scent and the group follows it, only to find the place where Bayleef fell into the river. Ash is now overcome with guilt over how he treated Bayleef and becomes determined to save her. They walk further down the river and find a house. Ash calls at the door, but receives no answer. The group then notices the old lady, her Pokemon and Ash's Bayleef playing in the gardens. Ash rushes towards Bayleef, but Skiploom Tackles Ash, preventing him from stepping on the flowers. The old woman informs the group that they are not in a public garden. Ash apologizes and explains that he was trying to find Bayleef. Ash begins to walk towards his Pokémon, but Bayleef rebuffs his apology by violently slapping his hand with her leaf.

Haruno introduces herself to the group and invites them for some tea. She suggests that the group stay over while Ash and Bayleef repair their friendship, and Ash accepts her hospitality. Misty and Brock notice the tea is particularly aromatic. Haruno explains that she and her Pokémon enjoy gardening and tending to the many herbs.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket sits in a tree and they set their sights on stealing Haruno's Pokémon. James is keen to use the Pokemon to establish their own edible garden, but Jessie and Meowth dismiss the idea as too much work. The trio makes their presence known when they show up in a huge Bayleef robot. As everyone flees, Team Rocket replicates the Vine Whip attack to capture Skiploom, Bellossom, Pikachu, and Bayleef. Haruno pleads for her Pokémon to be returned, but Team Rocket are determined to make their getaway. The robo-Bayleef stand onto two legs and prepares to crush Haruno, luckily Machoke rescues the old woman from harm. Team Rocket rushes off with their catches, but Ash pursues them.
