[[Ash's Froakie]], prior to joining Ash's team, was notorious for being troublesome; he had been returned by several Trainers for being disobedient and also had a habit of running away from trainers he deemed unsuitable, which, in practice, meant any Trainer he was intended for. Indeed, when he met Ash in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', he had run away from his previous Trainer. Even willingly joining Ash's party didn't automatically ensure his obedience; in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'', when a {{AP|Fletchling}} upset {{an|Bonnie}} by stealing a berry that she was trying to feed to a {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}}, Froakie attacked Fletchling and was too angry to listen to Ash's instructions to back down and leave it to Pikachu. However, Ash realised why Froakie was so angry and the two came up with a strategy that ultimately resulted in Froakie's payback and Fletchling's capture. As a result, Froakie finally listened to his Trainer (and indeed, for presumably the first time, ''a'' Trainer).

[[Ash's Froakie]], prior to joining Ash's team, was notorious for being troublesome, going through several Trainers that he proved unsuitable for. Either the Trainer would end up returning him to [[Professor Sycamore]] for being disobedient, or he would abandon his new Trainer and return to Professor Sycamore himself; the latter had happened when he met Ash in ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]''. Even willingly joining Ash's party didn't automatically ensure his obedience; in ''[[XY003|A Battle of Aerial Mobility!]]'', when a wild {{AP|Fletchling}} upset {{an|Bonnie}} by stealing a berry that she was trying to feed to a {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}}, he attacked the Tiny Robin Pokémon and refused to obey Ash's instructions to back down and leave it to Pikachu. However, Ash realised that the Bubble Frog Pokémon was only trying to stick up for Bonnie and the two came up with a strategy that ultimately resulted in Froakie's payback and Fletchling's capture. This confirmed to Froakie that he had found the right Trainer and he subsequently obeyed Ash without question.
