'''A Real Cleffa-Hanger''' (Japanese: '''オツキミやま！ピィとピッピとピクシーと！''' ''{{tt|Mt. Otsukimi|Mt. Moon}}! With {{tt|Py|Cleffa}}, {{tt|Pippi|Clefairy}} and {{tt|Pixy|Clefable}}!'') is the 134th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 408th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on July 7, 2005 and in the United States on April 15, 2006.

On the way to the {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}}, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} stop to have a picnic at the foot of [[Mt. Moon]]. Ash notices that {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}} is missing and asks {{an|Brock}} where it is. Brock answers that he left it at [[Pewter City|home]] since {{Brocksib|his brothers and sisters}} got along with it well and [[Lola|his mother]] treated it as one of the children. Suddenly, {{an|Misty}} gets a call on her [[Pokégear]] from her sister {{an|Daisy}}, who tells Misty that there is a problem back at the [[Cerulean Gym]]. The Gym's lobby is packed with Trainers looking to challenge Misty while [[Violet]] and {{ka|Lily}} are hosting their impromptu guests. Daisy wonders if they can just hand out [[Badge#Cascade Badge|Badges]] and have the Trainers come back later. Misty of course nixes that idea and tells Daisy to be patient as she is on her way home. The group packs up and prepares to head toward [[Cerulean City]]. Before departing, they encounter a wild {{p|Cleffa}}. {{TRT}} appear and try to suck up the group's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a {{TP|Team Rocket|vacuum machine|mechas}} attached to the basket of their {{p|Meowth}} balloon. They eventually succeed, but do not get {{AP|Pikachu}}.

Misty's group once again sets out to find Ash's group. Suddenly, Team Rocket attack again with their vacuum machine. Max is about to be sucked up, but suddenly May appears and grabs his hand. Team Rocket say their {{motto}} and start up the suction again, but Azurill uses {{m|Bubble}}, which is sucked into the machine instead and breaks the machine. Team Rocket then attack with Seviper and [[James's Cacnea]], but Cleffa, Clefairy, and Clefable call their friends, who appear and begin using {{m|Metronome}}. [[May's Munchlax]] escapes from its {{i|Poké Ball}} and begins to wave its arms with the Clefairy. The Cleffa use {{m|Splash}}, causing Team Rocket's Pokémon to bounce up and down. The Clefable use {{m|Teeter Dance}}, which makes all of Team Rocket dance as well. Team Rocket aren't by this until Meowth realizes that it was only a distraction so Munchlax and the Clefairy could power up {{m|Solar Beam}}. Jessie and James try to send Seviper and Cacnea to attack with Poison Tail and {{m|Needle Arm}}, but Pikachu stops them with Thunderbolt. Having been given the time to charge, Munchlax and the Clefairy fire Solar Beams that blast Team Rocket off. Cleffa, Clefairy, and Clefable then march off to Mt. Moon. Misty mentions that since tonight will have a full moon, they are probably going to [[EP006|perform a moon dance]]. Brock explains to May and Max how the Clefairy evolution family dance around a giant [[Moon Stone]] on Mt. Moon. When Max asks if they can go watch, he says they likely can, as the Fairy Pokémon now trust them. Ash and friends follow them and watch the Pokémon do the ritual dance around the Moon Stone.

In the morning, the group is once again on the road to the {{gdis|Battle Factory|III}}, when Misty gets another call from Daisy's [[Pokégear]]. She asks where Misty is and states she will give out the Badges anyway. Misty protests, adamantly telling her not to and that she will be home shortly. She has to take the other fork in the road, so she and Azurill will leave Ash's group to return to Cerulean City. Before she departs, Misty wishes Ash good luck in the Battle Frontier and May good luck with her [[Pokémon Contest]]s. She reconfirms with Max that both will continue to help their older sisters.

* The dub's title is a pun on the phrase "''a real cliff-hanger''".

* Although {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} had previously been to [[Mt. Moon]] in ''[[EP006|Clefairy and the Moon Stone]]'', there were no {{p|Cleffa}} present then. This is clearly because Cleffa was introduced in [[Generation II]].

* Much like ''[[EP246|Wish Upon a Star Shape]]'' had revisited the {{p|Clefairy}} group introduced in ''[[EP062|Clefairy Tales]]'', this episode revisited the group of Clefairy and {{p|Clefable}} from ''Clefairy and the Moon Stone''.

* This is the last main series episode in which [[Rachael Lillis]] provides the voice of Misty.

 

* When {{TRT}} attempts to suck [[Max]] and {{AP|Pikachu}} in for the last time before {{an|May}} saves them, Pikachu's body appears to be darker.
