Ash and Dawn find themselves up in the mountains as night falls. The two see a light in the distance and decide to head toward it, only to discover that a Pachirisu is the source of the light. Pachirisu is trapped within a robotic cage, and Ash calls out Turtwig to use Razor Leaf on the cage. The leaves bounce off and the cage begins to grow up out of the ground. There are robotic legs attached as well! Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but the robotic tail on the machine cage grounds it from being electrocuted. Dawn realizes that the tail is preventing Thunderbolt from doing any damage, and orders Piplup to use Bubble Beam on the tail. The tail comes lose and one Thunderbolt is enough to free Pachirisu from the cage. Grateful to the trainers, Pachirisu and the other Pachirisu in the area light the path down the mountain for Ash and Dawn.
