[[File:Professor Rowan Laboratory.png|thumb|left|220px| | In the [[Pokémon anime]], Sandgem Town was first featured in ''[[DP001|Following A Maiden's Voyage!]]'', in which {{an|Dawn}} left her home in [[Twinleaf Town]] and headed to [[Professor Rowan]]'s Research Lab in order to obtain her first Pokémon. However, by the time she got there, [[Yuzo]] and the other [[Professors' aides|assistants]] informed her that two out of the three [[starter Pokémon]]—{{p|Piplup}} and {{p|Chimchar}}—had fled after a fight over some [[Pokémon food]]. | ||

Dawn then decided to go looking for them on a nearby [[forest]], where she found Piplup trapped in a web created by a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Ariados}}. She managed to rescue him while Chimchar was taken to the lab by Rowan's {{p|Staraptor}}. Back in the lab, Dawn chose {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} as her partner saying that their {{pkmn|journey}} together had already began. After that, Rowan gave her a [[Pokédex]] and six [[Poké Ball]]s and she left for {{rt|202|Sinnoh}}. | |||
In ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'', [[Officer Jenny]] took {{Ash}} to Rowan's lab after he told her that his {{AP|Pikachu}} was missing. There, Rowan explained that Dawn had placed a call to him earlier saying that she had rescued a Pikachu from [[Team Rocket trio|a trio of Pokémon thieves]] and taken it to a [[Pokémon Center]]. Ash called the Pokémon Center immediately, but [[Nurse Joy]] said Dawn had just left to find Pikachu's {{pkmn|Trainer}}. Upon hearing that, Ash decided to go out and meet with Dawn. | |||

In ''[[DP003|When Pokémon Worlds Collide!]]'', after being reunited with Pikachu and his long-time {{ashfr|traveling companion}} {{an|Brock}}, Ash returned to Rowan's lab accompanied by Dawn. There, Dawn shared her plan of entering the [[Jubilife City]] [[Pokémon Contest]] and Ash said he intended to challenge the [[Sinnoh]] [[Gym]]s. They agreed to journey together and were about to hit the road when [[Paul]] appeared and challenged Ash to a three-on-three battle. Ash accepted and the battle took place just outside the lab, with Ash using his recently {{pkmn2|caught}} {{AP|Starly}}, {{AP|Aipom}}, and Pikachu while Paul used his {{p|Starly}}, {{TP|Paul|Chimchar}}, and {{TP|Paul|Elekid}}. The hard-fought battle ended in a draw, upsetting both Ash and Paul. Ash requested another battle, but Paul turned him down and left. | |||
In [[SS024]], after spending some time {{pkmn|training}} at home following her narrow defeat at the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]], Dawn decided to travel to the [[Hoenn]] [[region]] to compete in Pokémon Contests there. However, she was torn between beginning anew with only Piplup by her side or taking the {{cat|Dawn's Pokémon|whole team}} with her. Seeing this, [[Johanna]] suggested that she visited Professor Rowan and asked for his advice. Dawn listened to her mother and rode a [[Bicycle|bike]] to Sandgem Town. When she explained the issue to Rowan, he said that a girl named [[Shinko]] was having trouble making decisions as well. | |||
Dawn went to talk with Shinko and learned that the girl was unsure about which Pokémon she should start her journey with. When a fight broke out between Piplup and Chimchar, which resulted in them escaping from the lab, both Dawn and Shinko went out to search for them. They found the two caught in an Ariados's web and proceeded to rescue them, but the Ariados was soon joined by its friends. Dawn called out her Pokémon to help, but the swarm of Ariados tied them all up with {{m|String Shot}}. In a turn of events, Dawn's {{p|Cyndaquil}} [[Evolution|evolved]] into {{TP|Dawn|Quilava}} and scared the Ariados off with its newly learned {{m|Eruption}} attack. After that, Dawn and Shinko headed back to the lab, where Dawn announced that she would take all of her Pokémon to Hoenn as she realized there is still so much more she can do with them, while Shinko decided to study some more before making her big decision. | |||
