Before the match begins, Rowlet and Dartrix exchange intense stares, and Rotom takes its position as the battle's [[Battle judge|referee]]. Hau makes the first [[move]], but Rowlet falls asleep mid-battle and dodges Dartrix's {{m|Leaf Blade}}. After Ash wakes Rowlet up, it uses Razor Leaf, but Dartrix's own Razor Leaf slices its way through; Rowlet manages to dodge it. As Dartrix prepares to use Leaf Blade, Ash attempts to place his [[Grassium Z]] onto his Z-Ring, but he accidentally drops it in the grass. As Ash frantically searches for it, Rowlet is defeated by Dartrix's attack. While Ash is disappointed, Rotom claims that Rowlet appeared to be unusually serious and more powerful in battle. Ash challenges Hau to a rematch after seeing Rowlet's increasing aggression, but Hau declines because he has an appointment with his father to attend. Instead, the two {{pkmn|Trainer}}s promise to meet up the next day for the rematch. | Before the match begins, Rowlet and Dartrix exchange intense stares, and Rotom takes its position as the battle's [[Battle judge|referee]].

Meanwhile, Rowlet continues to practice its techniques against a [[Substitute (doll)|substitute doll]]. Burnet asks Ash if retaliating with a new move would be more exciting. Rotom searches its database as Burnet tells the story about the Masked Royal's {{TP|Professor Kukui|Incineroar}} learning {{m|Cross Chop}} from {{m|Brick Break}}. Kukui interrupts the conversation and goes on to recite the Masked Royal's famous motto, "If you've got doubts, go back to your roots." Burnet explains that it means to go back to the beginning and Kukui adds something like a place or important event to Rowlet may help. Ash thinks of an idea and announces that he and Rowlet will practice a new move the next day. | ||
The following day, Ash escorts Rowlet to the location where they first met. Rotom is immediately concerned by Ash's logic, but Ash reassures it. Rowlet flies off and soon encounters {{DL|Toucannon's flock|Trumbeak}}. Ash follows Rowlet and Trumbeak as they fly over to {{DL|Toucannon's flock|Toucannon}}'s nest. Toucannon greets Ash, and soon, it and Trumbeak fly down and begin eating rocks on the ground. The odd behavior perplexes Ash and Pikachu, but Rotom explains that this trait is common amongst Bird Pokémon and that it helps them digest their food properly. Then, to everyone's surprise, Trumbeak and Toucannon showcase their {{m|Bullet Seed}} attacks. The pair starts teaching Rowlet the attack, but Rowlet's species cannot learn the move and thus it is unable to perform it, despite Ash's reassurances. | The following day, Ash escorts Rowlet to the location where they first met.
