-Originally an {{p|Aipom}}, '''Dawn's Ambipom''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリのエテボース''' ''Hikari's Eteboth'') is the only Pokémon to be captured by [[Ash Ketchum]] in the [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|Battle Frontier saga]]. Much later, she was traded to {{an|Dawn}} in exchange for {{TP|Ash|Buizel}}. Her Japanese voice actress is 佐藤智恵 ''[[Chie Satō]]''. As an Aipom, she was voiced by 伊東みやこ ''[[Miyako Itō]]'' in both English and Japanese.
+'''Dawn's Ambipom''' (Japanese: '''ヒカリのエテボース''' ''Hikari's Eteboth'') was the only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to be {{pkmn2|caught}} by {{Ash}} during the [[S09|Battle Frontier saga]], and his twenty-eighth overall. Much later, she was [[trade]]d to {{an|Dawn}} in exchange for {{AP|Buizel}} after Aipom showed a love for Contests and Buizel a love for battling in ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', becoming her fifth Pokémon overall.

+===History===
-Aipom was first seen in ''[[AG178|Slaking Kong]]'', worshiping a giant, mechanical {{p|Slaking}}. However, she also stole [[Ash's hat]], much like [[Ash's Primeape]] did more than 400 episodes before. Aipom soon reappeared in ''[[AG179|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'', stealing the hats of the participants before making off with Ash's hat again. In ''[[AG181|Channeling the Battle Zone]]'', Ash finally captured her.

+[[File:Ash and Aipom.png|thumb|left|220px|Aipom with Ash]]
+Ambipom was first seen as an Aipom in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong!]]'', worshiping a giant {{p|Slaking}} with several other mountain-dwelling Pokémon. She also stole [[Ash's hat]] with a group of Aipom getting food to offer the Slaking. Later, Aipom joined the other Aipom, as well as several {{p|Mankey}}, {{p|Vigoroth}}, and {{p|Slaking}}, to attack the giant Slaking, which turned out to be a [[Team Rocket's mechas|mechanical robot]] made by {{TRT}}. She helped in returning the stolen berries to {{OBP|Taylor|AG179}}. Later, after Ash and his friends left Taylor's home, the group saw Ash's hat on a rock. After wondering who placed it there, they found out that it was Aipom, due to an apple and a flower she left with the hat. The group continues their journey as Ash said Aipom is a cool Pokémon after all. Unknown to them, the happy Aipom was watching them from a nearby tree.
-In ''[[AG182|Aipom and Circumstance]]'', Aipom became jealous of [[Ash's Pikachu]]'s closeness to Ash. Aipom also seems to have a certain penchant for headgear; aside from taking Ash's and other participants' hats, Aipom wore a daisy chain on her head and put on a ceremonial crown that the locals had trouble getting off. Aipom's gender was confirmed in the Japanese version of ''Aipom and Circumstance''; while Aipom was nearby gathering flowers, {{an|May}} said, 「エイパムやっぱり女の子ね？」 ''Aipom is a girl after all, isn't she?''.  In [[DP048]], Dawn also explicitly calls Aipom a girl, and in the dub of ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies]]'', both Aipom and {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} are referred to as girls, confirming them to be female.
+In ''[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]'', Aipom stole the hats of the participants before making off with Ash's hat again. In ''[[AG181|Thinning the Hoard!]]'', due to her causing too much trouble, Ash attempted to catch her. After {{AP|Pikachu}} used {{m|Quick Attack}} to get Ash's hat back and {{m|Thunderbolt}} to weaken her more, she was still able to foil Ash's attempt to catch her. In ''[[AG182|Channeling the Battle Zone!]]'', as well as the previous episode, after watching {{an|May}} in the [[Kanto Grand Festival]], Aipom became thrilled with battling and challenged {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} for a {{pkmn|battle}}; as he won, Ash finally {{pkmn2|caught}} her in front of a huge crowd.

+=====With Ash=====
-Aipom enjoys participating in [[Pokémon Contest]]s. Her interest was first perked in ''[[AG180|Thinning the Hoard]]'' where she took an interest in May's battle with Harley.  Aipom also watched her battle with Drew before enticing Ash into catching her.  In ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault]]'', Aipom was entered into her first contest with Ash.  They got through the Appeal Round but lost the first battle round to [[Zoey]] and [[Zoey's Glameow|her Glameow]]. In ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith]]'', Aipom entered an unofficial contest under the command of [[Jessie]] and won against [[Dawn's Pachirisu]]. Zoey suggested that Ash give Aipom to Dawn.
+Aipom enjoyed participating in [[Pokémon Contest]]s, but was also eager to battle. Her interest was first perked in ''[[AG181|Thinning the Hoard!]]'' where she took an interest in May's battle with [[Harley]]. Aipom also watched her battle with [[Drew]] before enticing Ash into catching her. While Ash had Aipom, she usually sat on his left shoulder when outside of her {{i|Poké Ball}}, in contrast to Pikachu sitting on his right shoulder.
-While Ash had Aipom, she usually sat on his left shoulder when outside of her Poké Ball, in contrast to Pikachu sitting on his right shoulder.
+In ''[[AG183|Aipom and Circumstance!]]'', Aipom became jealous of Pikachu's closeness to Ash. Aipom also seemed to have a certain penchant for headgear; aside from taking Ash's and other people's hats, Aipom wore a daisy chain and put on a ceremonial crown that the locals had trouble getting off. The members of a crowd who wanted the crown, as well as Ash and his friends, attempted to remove the crown from her head so she would not become their king for a year. With the help of a [[Belue Berry]]'s sourness, the crown was finally taken off. Ash hugged Aipom and told her not to always get into trouble. As Ash laughed a bit when he told her this, Aipom blushed.
-In order to bring back [[Ash's Torkoal|Torkoal]] to battle [[Pyramid King Brandon|Brandon]]'s {{p|Registeel}}, Ash sent Aipom to [[Professor Oak]], where Aipom had quite a bit of trouble adjusting to the new environment and lack of Ash. However, after Ash's second defeat, Aipom returned.
+To bring back {{AP|Torkoal}} to battle [[Brandon]]'s {{DL|Brandon's legendary giants|Registeel}} in ''[[AG186|Overjoyed!]]'', Ash sent Aipom to {{an|Professor Oak}}, where Aipom had trouble adjusting to the new environment and Ash's absence, even attacking the Professor. However, after Ash's second defeat, Aipom returned.
-When Ash left for [[Sinnoh]], leaving all his Pokémon but [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] behind as he did when leaving for [[Hoenn]], Aipom snuck aboard the boat he was traveling on to accompany him on his new journey. During her journey through Sinnoh, Aipom has defeated [[Ash's Chimchar|Paul's Chimchar]] in battle and helped Ash capture his [[Ash's Staravia|Starly]]. Ash also used her in his first two Gym battles in the region.
+====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''====
+When Ash left for [[Sinnoh]], he wanted to leave all of his Pokémon except for {{AP|Pikachu}} behind, just like he did when leaving for [[Hoenn]]. However, Aipom sneaked aboard the boat he was traveling on, wanting to accompany him on his new journey. Aipom soon proved to be a necessary backup; as soon as they arrived in Sinnoh, Team Rocket kidnapped Pikachu, but soon blasted themselves off and lost him in the woods, and Aipom helped Ash find him. During this time, Aipom helped Ash catch his {{AP|Starly}} and, after Pikachu was found, defeated [[Paul's Chimchar]] in battle.
+[[File:Ash Aipom first contest.png|thumb|left|220px|Aipom in her first Contest]]
+In ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]'', Aipom was watching {{an|Dawn}} {{pkmn|training}} with {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} for the [[Jubilife City]] [[Pokémon Contest]] and became interested in participating. Seeing as how Aipom wanted to join the competition, Dawn and {{an|Brock}} convinced Ash to sign up. Ash and Aipom got through the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]], but in ''[[DP012|Arrival of a Rival!]]'', they lost their first match in the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]] to [[Zoey]] and her {{TP|Zoey|Glameow}}. After the battle, Zoey suggested that Ash should let Dawn raise Aipom.
-Aipom put up a fight against [[Roark's Cranidos]] in Ash's first match, however, she lost. In their rematch she fought {{p|Geodude}}. She also fought in Ash's second Gym Battle as well, going against [[Gardenia]]'s {{p|Roserade}}, which resulted in a victory, giving Ash his [[Badge#Forest Badge|Forest Badge]].
+In ''[[DP016|A Gruff Act to Follow!]]'', Aipom put up a fight against [[Roark's Cranidos]] during Ash's [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Roark]] in the [[Oreburgh Gym]], but lost. In their rematch in ''[[DP018|O'er the Rampardos we Watched!]]'', she went up against [[Roark]]'s {{p|Geodude}}. Geodude managed to avoid a lot of damage from Aipom while countering with its attacks, but Aipom was able to connect a super-effective Focus Punch and defeat Geodude. Aipom next went up against Rampardos. Aipom uses Swift, but it didn't affect Rampardos at all. Rampardos uses Headbutt, but before Aipom could dodge it, she was hit and knocked out.
-===With Dawn===
+In ''[[DP022|Borrowing on Bad Faith!]]'', Aipom entered an informal Pokémon Contest not sanctioned by the [[Pokémon Activities Committee]] under [[Jessie]]'s command. They were able to advance to the final round, where she won against [[Dawn's Pachirisu]], earning Jessie a year's supply of fruits.
-[[Image:Dawn&Ambipom.jpg|thumb|right|Dawn and Ambipom]]
+[[File:Ash Dawn after trade.png|thumb|220px|Aipom after being traded to Dawn]]
-In [[DP055]], Ash began the training for his next Gym battle in [[Veilstone City]]. However, [[Ash's Buizel|Dawn's Buizel]] seemed to be more interested in Ash's battle training and thus couldn't set its mind on Dawn's training; meanwhile Ash's Aipom appeared to have a similar problem in Ash's training because it tended to be more interested in Dawn's Contest training. Then Zoey proposed that Ash and Dawn trade them. After some soul-searching, the trainers agreed, and the trade took place.
+In ''[[DP037|The Grass Menagerie!]]'', Aipom was Ash's third and final Pokémon in his [[Eterna Gym]] Battle against [[Gardenia]]; she went up against Gardenia's {{p|Roserade}} after performing a contest like introduction. Aipom initially struggled against the Bouquet Pokémon's use of {{m|Grass Knot}} to create ensnaring vines and {{m|Flash}} to blind her but was able to turn it around by listening for Roserade's attacks. Through this, she was able to send back a super-effective {{m|Weather Ball}} before creating a circle of Swift stars to deal major damage. Aipom used Focus Punch to finish the battle and win Ash the {{badge|Forest}}.
-In [[DP060]], Aipom managed to learn {{m|Double Hit}}. [[Kenny (Sinnoh)|Kenny]] appeared and told Dawn that Aipom would evolve soon. Later in the episode, when Dawn was being attacked by a group of {{p|Unown}}, Aipom jumped in front of Dawn to protect her and evolved into {{p|Ambipom}}.
+In ''[[DP055|Throwing the Track Switch]]'', Ash began the {{pkmn|training}} for his next [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} in [[Veilstone City]]. However, {{AP|Dawn's Buizel|Buizel}} seemed to be more interested in Ash's battle training and thus couldn't set his mind on Dawn's training; Meanwhile, Aipom also had a problem with Ash's training because her style tended to be best suited for Pokémon Contests. Then, Zoey proposed that Ash and Dawn trade them. After some soul-searching, the {{pkmn|Trainer}}s agreed, and the trade took place.
-In [[DP061]], Dawn used Ambipom in her appeal for the [[Solaceon Town|Solaceon]] {{pkmn|Contest}}, but failed to pass the Appeal Round. [[Zoey]] explained to Dawn that she failed due to an overuse of {{m|Swift}}, blocking {{p|Ambipom}} from view.

+In ''[[DP060|Journey to the Unown!]]'', Aipom learned Double Hit. {{an|Brock}} told Dawn that Aipom would evolve soon. Later in the episode, when Dawn and Aipom were attacked by a group of {{p|Unown}}, Aipom jumped in and evolved into Ambipom.
+[[File:Dawn and Ambipom.png|thumb|left|220px|Ambipom in the Wallace Cup with Dawn]]
+In ''[[DP061|Team Shocker!]]'', Dawn used Ambipom in the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]] of the {{to|Solaceon}} {{pkmn|Contest}}, but failed to advance to the [[Contest Battle]]s. Zoey explained to Dawn that she failed due to an overuse of Swift, blocking Ambipom from view.
-==Moves used==
+In ''[[DP067|Crossing the Battle Line!]]'', Dawn used Ambipom in her Gym battle against [[Maylene]]. Ambipom was chosen for her extensive battling experience with Ash. She proved her strength in the battle by defeating Maylene's {{p|Meditite}}, making her the only Pokémon Dawn used in the match who managed to defeat one of Maylene's team. Despite this victory, Ambipom could not stand up to the strength of [[Maylene's Lucario]] and was quickly knocked out.

+In ''[[DP077|Staging a Heroes Welcome]]'', Dawn once again used Ambipom for the Performance Stage in the [[Wallace Cup]]. She passed the round by dazzling the [[Contest Judge]]s with Swift, Focus Punch, and Double Hit.
+[[File:Dawn Ambipom Lila Delcatty.png|thumb|220px|Ambipom battling Delcatty]]
+In ''[[DP095|Battling the Generation Gap!]]'', Dawn used Ambipom in the Battle Stage of the {{to|Celestic}} Contest. Ambipom was shown defeating a {{p|Delibird}} and a {{p|Nosepass}} to advance to the finals, where she went up against [[Lila]]'s {{p|Delcatty}}. The battle started with Ambipom using Swift, which seemed to hit Delcatty. However, it was a decoy created through the use of {{m|Substitute}} while the real Delcatty sneaked behind Ambipom and wrapped himself up in her tails before using {{m|Shock Wave}}, landing a clean hit and costing Dawn some points. After that, Ambipom used Double Team and then Focus Punch, hitting Delcatty but unknowingly activating his {{a|Cute Charm}} [[Ability]]. This left Ambipom {{status|infatuation|infatuated}} and allowed Delcatty to use {{m|Sing}} to put Ambipom to {{status|sleep}}. Delcatty got in multiple hits before Ambipom was able to recover and use Double Team and Double Hit to protect herself until the infatuation wore off. Ambipom then used Swift while spinning around to make the golden stars swirl while Delcatty countered with Shock Wave. A few seconds before time ran out, Swift broke through the disc, and a massive amount of stars hit Delcatty. When the smoke cleared, Dawn was shown to have more points on the scoreboard, winning the battle and earning the Celestic Ribbon, her third Contest Ribbon overall.
+In ''[[DP123|Old Rivals, New Tricks!]]'', Ambipom was used in the [[Sandalstraw Town]] Pokémon Contest. In the Performance Stage, Dawn sent her out of her {{i|Poké Ball}} with a [[Seal|Song Seal]] and asked her to use Double Team followed by Focus Punch. Ambipom created multiple copies of herself and then punched all the {{wp|musical note}}s with her long tails, taking advantage of the Seal's effect to begin her performance. Ambipom proceeded to use Swift as if she was serving a ping pong ball. She spun around rapidly, causing the golden stars to move in a spiraling pattern before destroying them with Double Hit, which resulted in sparkles pouring down on both Ambipom and Dawn as they posed together to mark the end of the performance. The judges received the presentation well and allowed Dawn to move on to the second round.
+[[File:Dawn Ambipom ping pong.png|thumb|left|250px|Ambipom playing ping pong]]
+In the Battle Stage, Ambipom squared off against Jessilina's {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} in the semifinals and managed to win the battle. She proceeded to the finals and was up against [[Kenny's Prinplup]]. The battle started with Prinplup using {{m|Drill Peck}}, which Ambipom blocked with Swift before using Double Team. After that, Prinplup used {{m|Bubble Beam}} to destroy the illusory copies Ambipom had created. However, before the attack could hit the real Ambipom, Dawn had the idea to implement ping pong moves into the battle and asked Ambipom to use Focus Punch, sending the bubbles back to Prinplup. Seeing that, Kenny asked Prinplup to repel the bubbles with {{m|Metal Claw}}. The bubbles went back and forth until Prinplup used Bubble Beam again. Instead of repelling the bubbles this time, Ambipom used Double Hit to destroy them. The bubbles were keeping Ambipom busy and Prinplup took the opportunity to try to attack her with Drill Peck, but Ambipom saw Prinplup coming and countered with Focus Punch. The two clashed midair, but Prinplup quickly recovered, jumping high and using Drill Peck while nosediving and spinning. Ambipom proceeded to use Double Hit, but the move could not stop Prinplup. This surprised Ambipom, and Prinplup attacked her with another Drill Peck, knocking her out. As a result, she lost the battle.
+During the Sandalstraw Contest, she discovered a love and talent for {{wp|table tennis|ping pong}}. She used this talent to compete in the [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]] with Dawn in ''[[DP124|To Thine Own Pokémon Be True!]]''. Due to her apparent natural ability, fellow competitor [[O]] offered her a place at his Ping Pong Training Center in [[Vermilion City]]. Dawn left the decision to Ambipom. After deciding to pursue ping pong over her love of Pokémon Contests, Ambipom bid farewell to Dawn and Ash and left the group to follow her new ambition.
+====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
+Ambipom, as an Aipom and under Ash's ownership, appeared in a flashback in ''[[JN114|Friends, Rivals, Lend Me Your Spirit!]]''.
+In ''[[JN132|Partners in Time!]]'', Ambipom appeared as a vision to Pikachu during his battle against [[Leon's Charizard]].
+In ''[[JN135|Heroes Unite!]]'', Ambipom appeared in a fantasy while Ash reminisced about the Pokémon he'd caught on his journey.
+===Personality and characteristics===
+[[File:Ash Dawn Ambipom.png|thumb|250px|Ambipom with both Ash and Dawn]]
+Like most of her species, Ambipom is a playful Pokémon. As an Aipom, however, she behaved much like [[Ash's Chikorita]], being mischievous, often stealing [[Ash's hat]] or other forms of headwear and even other Pokémon's food just for attention. She was also quite attached to Ash, getting jealous of his attention to {{AP|Pikachu}}, or even attacking {{an|Professor Oak}} just because Ash wasn't present. Upon her evolution, most of these traits mellowed. Ambipom had stopped stealing and became quicker to obey orders. While still loyal to Ash after being traded and evolving, she also became loyal to his friends, showing a more mature side.
+Ambipom has been shown to develop different interests over time. A well-known example of this is Contests. While not necessarily preferring them to Battles, she has shown great interest. She first showed interest in Contests as a wild Pokémon when watching {{an|May}} and other Coordinators compete in ''[[AG181|Thinning the Hoard!]]''. Her love for Contests even persuaded {{Ash}} to participate in the {{ci|Jubilife}} Contest.
+Later, she became interested in Pokémon Ping Pong after using Ping Pong-like moves in a [[DP123|recent Contest]]. This interest, once again, ended up in Ambipom [[DP124|switching roads]].

 ==Trivia==
-[[Image:Satoshitoeipam.jpg|right|thumb|Ash and Aipom.]]
+* Ambipom is the first Pokémon character to be the focus of [[Professor Oak's Big Pokémon Encyclopedia]] twice:
-*For [[DP014]], [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Aipom.  He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about her: エイパムが　しっぽでつかむ　サトシのハート ''{{tt|Eipam|Aipom}}, it seizes with its tail, Satoshi's heart.''
+** For [[DP014]], Professor Oak's Big Pokémon Encyclopedia is about Ash's Aipom. He writes this {{wp|senryū}} about her: 「エイパムが　しっぽでつかむ　サトシのハート」 ''{{tt|Eipam|Aipom}}, it seizes with its tail, {{tt|Satoshi|Ash}}'s heart.''
-*Aipom's habit of taking Ash's hat mimics the actions of [[Ash's Primeape]], who coincidentally was also a primate.
+** For [[DP073]], Professor Oak's Big Pokémon Encyclopedia is about Dawn's Ambipom. He writes this senryū about her: 「エテボース　しっぽでリング　ともだちだ」 ''"When {{tt|Eteboth|Ambipom}} make rings by linking their tails, they're friends."''
-*Aipom is one of the few Pokémon on the show to have its gender explicitly stated via dialog multiple times, including the dub of ''[[DP039|Steamboat Willies]]''
+* Ambipom and {{AP|Buizel}} are the only two Pokémon to be traded between main characters.
-*Aipom is the fourth Pokémon to take Ash's hat, the first being {{AP|Primeape}}, then {{AP|Pikachu}} and third, {{an|Latias}}.
+* Ambipom is the only:
-*Aipom is one of the few main characters' Pokémon to be traded, along with [[Jessie's Lickitung]] and [[Ash's Butterfree]].
+** Pokémon of Dawn's that shares an English voice actress with her.
-*Due to now being Dawn's Pokémon, Aipom is the only Pokémon owned by a main character that was introduced ''before'' the character.
+** Pokémon belonging to Dawn to not appear in ''[[Pokémon the Series: Black & White]]'' or to not physically appear in ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''.
-*Ambipom took as many episodes to evolve as another Pokémon that had a crush on Ash: {{TP|Ash|Chikorita}}. They are both {{cat|Generation II Pokémon}} as well, and they have very similar English and Japanese names.
+* Ambipom is the first Pokémon owned by a main character that was introduced before the character, since Aipom was originally Ash's Pokémon before being traded to Dawn. She would be the only Pokémon to have this unique distinction until [[Roy's Fuecoco]], who debuted in ''[[HZ002|The Pendant That Starts It All (Part Two)]]'', with [[Roy]] himself debuting at the end of ''[[HZ003|For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!]]''.
-*Ambipom is the first of Dawn's Pokémon to evolve.
+** Ambipom still remains the only Pokémon owned by a main character to be introduced in a [[series]] before the character's debut.
-*Ambipom is the first traded Pokémon in the anime to evolve.
+* Ambipom, as an Aipom, was Ash's only:
-* As of [[DP067]], Ambipom will have battled in all 3 gyms that have appeared so far in Sinnoh.
+** Non-temporary Pokémon that he permanently traded away.
+** Pokémon other than Pikachu that Ash has had on hand from the end of one series to the start of the next.
+** Pokémon aside from Pikachu that Ash has traveled with alone for at least two consecutive episodes.
+** Pokémon to have been previously left at [[Professor Oak's Laboratory]] but no longer reside there.
+* Ambipom was the first Pokémon belonging to Dawn that evolved and her first fully evolved Pokémon.
+** Ambipom was also the first of Dawn's Pokémon to evolve by the [[Methods of evolution#When the Pokémon knows a certain move|method of knowing a certain move]], the second being her {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}.
+* Despite leaving in ''[[DP124|To Thine Own Pokémon Be True!]]'', Ambipom, unlike other Pokémon that left the main cast, was not removed from the [[High Touch!|opening sequence]] until the sequence was replaced eight months later.
+* Not including temporary Pokémon, Ash's capture of Aipom marked the first time Ash had caught a Pokémon outside of the series its debut [[Generation II|generation]] is based on.
+* Despite being confirmed female, the {{pmin|Czech}} dub consistently referred to Ambipom as male, even to the point where in ''[[DP095|Battling The Generation Gap!]]'', [[Lila]]'s {{p|Delcatty}}'s gender was changed from male to female to make Delcatty's {{a|Cute Charm}} activation work.
