DP060: Difference between revisions

While {{an|Dawn}} and {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} are {{pkmn|training}} for the {{to|Solaceon}} {{pkmn|Contest}}, they use {{m|Focus Punch}} in fast succession to make it look like Aipom has two tails. {{an|Brock}} tells her that is actually {{m|Double Hit}} and Aipom is close to evolving after that [[move]]. {{si|Kenny}} arrives and mocks Dawn for not knowing that Aipom evolves into {{p|Ambipom}}. He refers to Dawn as Dee Dee, with mysterious nickname puzzling {{Ash}} yet again, but Dawn insists he not to go there. Kenny reveals that he is looking forward to the Solaceon Contest, and Dawn replies that she and Aipom will be hard to beat. Ash is keen to finish his match against Kenny, but Kenny declines, and says he was going to see {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}.

Meanwhile, at the [[Solaceon Ruins]], [[Saturn]] and the two {{tc|Galactic Grunt|grunts}} enter the ruins for unknown purposes. {{TRT}} notices Team Galactic and [[DP036|recalls]] being hired to steal the [[Adamant Orb]] from the [[Eterna Historical Museum]]. Saturn sends out his {{p|Bronzor}} to use {{m|Flash}} to guide them through the ruins. Team Rocket, convinced there is treasure inside, decides to follow them without being seen.

Ash and {{ashfr}} accompany Kenny to the ruins, where they marvel at the entrance featuring a Dialga and Palkia statue. Kenny offers to battle right now, right in front of the Dialga and Palkia statues, and Ash agrees to it. Ash and Kenny don't know who should go first, which causes Dawn to bring out her [[Pokétch]] App, the Coin Toss. Once the Coin Toss is done, it is decided that Ash goes first. Since Ash thinks Kenny is going to use {{TP|Kenny|Prinplup}} again, he sends out {{AP|Turtwig}}, insisting that {{AP|Pikachu}} should relax. Kenny, hearing this prediction, instead sends out {{p|Breloom}}, which surprises everyone, especially Ash. Ash starts the battle with a {{m|Tackle}}, which Breloom tries to dodge, but isn't fast enough. Kenny is surprised at Turtwig's speed. Ash orders Turtwig use a {{m|Razor Leaf}} attack, though Breloom’s {{m|Mach Punch}} hits first. Turtwig rushes forward with {{m|Bite}}, but Breloom counters with an {{m|Energy Ball}}. Ash is impressed by this move, and asks Kenny to teach it to Turtwig. Kenny thinks about it for a moment, and says that knowing the move {{m|Bullet Seed}} makes teaching Energy Ball easier. After Ash admits that Turtwig doesn't know Bullet Seed, Kenny says it will be difficult, but says he'll teach it to Turtwig if they defeat him in a battle.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket is still spying on Team Galactic. Saturn and his henchmen enter a room full of {{p|Unown}} inscriptions. The three of them place the [[Splash Plate]], [[Iron Plate]], and [[Draco Plate]] into a triangular floor plate, which causes the center to glow. Suddenly, all of the Unown inscriptions become real Unown. Having noticed Team Rocket from outside the ruins, Saturn says it's nice to see the trio again. Saturn then talks of the new world they are going to create, as a box known as the [[Spear Key]] lifts from the ground. He then takes hold of the box, which angers all of the Unown and causes them to attack. Saturn deflects them with Bronzor's {{m|Confuse Ray}} allowing himself and his grunts to escape to their waiting helicopter. Team Rocket proceed to run off as well, with the angry Unown right behind them. Outside, the entry stairs begin to lift up, carrying Dawn, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and Aipom with it. The boys leap inside to rescue Dawn just as the Solaceon Ruins shut behind them.

Inside, Ash and Brock rush off towards Kenny, who is freaking out over the warping walls. Ash reminds Kenny to remain calm and think about how the Pokémon will feel, which brings back Kenny's confidence as the three of them head further into the ruins to look for Dawn. Meanwhile, Dawn manages to find Piplup and Aipom, though they are disorientated by their odd surrounds. The Unown appear and fire a combined attack, leaving Dawn clueless, however her Pokémon help her with {{m|Swift}} and {{m|Bubble Beam}}, respectively. Because of this, the Unown suddenly snap out of their confusion and turn the place back to normal. However, Dawn still doesn't know how to get out, and it still looked really weird up ahead. Elsewhere, the boys are swarmed by another group of Unown. Brock explains they must have been confused. Ash's Pikachu and Turtwig then proceed to attack them with {{m|Thunderbolt}} and Razor Leaf while Kenny's Breloom and Prinplup attack them with Energy Ball and Bubble Beam which snaps the Unown out of confusion, turning the place back to normal. Then they continue searching for Dawn.

Meanwhile, Dawn continues running and encounters more Unown. Piplup uses {{m|Whirlpool}} to snap the Unown out of their confusion. Then Team Rocket show up falling down from the nearby stairs. Another group of Unown appear but they are stopped by Aipom's Double Hit, who then evolves into Ambipom. Then, she hits the Unown with Swift snapping them out of confusion. Brock and the others show up, and due to Unown's illusions each side sees each other as if they are walking on the ceiling. Another group of Unown appear but they are snapped out of confusion by Piplup's Bubble Beam, breaking the illusion. As the illusion lifts off, it is revealed that Dawn and Team Rocket are actually on the ceiling and subsequently they fall down on the floor. The other group all rush to catch the falling humans and Pokémon, with Brock using {{TP|Brock|Happiny}} to help with her massive strength.  

Suddenly the door to the outside opens and the group gets out. Brock wonders about the commotion inside the ruins and turns to Team Rocket for answers. However, the trio decide to make a run for it before they can get into any more trouble while promising revenge against Team Galactic. Ash looks up Ambipom on his [[Pokédex]] as the Long Tail Pokémon practices her moves. Dawn is confident that Ambipom can win her the Solaceon Contest, and Ash asks Kenny about their called-off battle. Kenny agrees to teach Turtwig Energy Ball, on the condition that Ash doesn't tell Dawn how scared he was.
