Ash and Cilan ask if she's alright, but Iris is only worried about her Excadrill, saying she {{pkmn2|caught}} it as a {{p|Drilbur}} near her hometown, the Village of Dragons. She explains that she first encountered Drilbur after he kicked one of her friends, a wild {{p|Patrat}}, out of its burrow. She and her forest friends confronted Drilbur over the incident, and Iris tried to battle him. Iris was defeated over nine consecutive days, and on the tenth attempt she countered his Metal Claw and kicked him into some finds. While struggling to free himself, the vines snapped sending Drilbur hurdling over a cliff. Iris swung into action, rescuing Drilbur from the fall. The two soon became friends, and defeated many opponents. Feeling confident, Iris and Drilbur entered the annual Village of Dragon Battle Competition. They reached the finals and defeated a {{p|Druddigon}} with Drill Run to win the competition. As they celebrate their victory, Dragon Master [[Drayden]] approaches and is impressed by Iris’s performance. He is pleasantly surprised to hear that she hadn’t received any formal training, and even accepts her challenge to battle him. He sends out his {{DL|Drayden|Haxorus}}, and she sends out Excadrill. His Metal Claw attacks seem to have no effect, and is whipped away by Haxorus. Iris commands Dig, which also does nothing. Excadrill is surprised by this. When he performs a Drill Run, Drayden counters it with Rock Smash, and Excadrill faints. After this, Excadrill curled up, and has since refused to answer or listen to Iris. When Iris mentions the battle, Excadrill closes his eyes in agony. | Ash and Cilan ask if she's alright, but Iris is only worried about her Excadrill, saying she {{pkmn2|caught}} it as a {{p|Drilbur}} near her hometown, the Village of Dragons.

Back in the present day, Cilan explains that | Back in the present day, Cilan explains that Excadrill probably doesn't listen to her because he distrusts her guidance in battle. Later that night, Iris is sleeping with Excadrill, still curled up. She mentions what Cilan said, and realizes that Excadrill had known he wouldn't win the battle with Haxorus but that she had kept on pressuring him to battle anyway. She tearfully apologizes and promises to be considerate of his feelings from now on, which causes Excadrill to cry under his armor. Later, Excadrill gets up and walks away from Iris, who wakes up and sees this. She finds Excadrill training in the forest, trying to learn {{m|Focus Blast}}, but it loses its sphere shape and turns into a blob, which explodes in his hands. Iris volunteers to train with him, and it takes until sunrise to fully master the [[move]]. | ||
As Iris and Excadrill celebrate the milestone, Ash and Cilan call them over for breakfast. When they return, they are surprised to find that Georgia is at their breakfast table, and has eaten all the food. Georgia suggests they just cook some more before turning her attention to Iris and Excadrill. They decide to have another battle, Beartic versus Excadrill. They counter each other with Metal Claw and {{m|Slash}}, but Beartic proves to be stronger, knocking it away. Beartic uses Icicle Crash, and Excadrill dodges with Dig. Dig lands, and Excadrill releases his new Focus Blast, which strikes Beartic down. Excadrill then uses Drill Run, which also lands. With its opponent in close range, Beartic {{status|frozen|freezes}} | As Iris and Excadrill celebrate the milestone, Ash and Cilan call them over for breakfast.

Beartic uses Icicle Crash, and Excadrill knocks some of them away with Focus Blast, but is still hit. As Excadrill kneels to the ground in exhaustion, Iris assures him that she still has faith, and he regains the strength to fight on. Beartic follows with Rock Smash, which Excadrill counters with Drill Run. Excadrill and Beartic faint, resulting in a tie. Georgia says that she couldn't care less as long as her Pokémon didn't lose to a Dragon-type. As she walks away, Georgia mentions that she expects another meal from Cilan next time they meet. Even though Iris and Excadrill didn't win, they are still happy, and Iris says that they'll become stronger together. Excadrill confirms this by hugging his Trainer. Having regained their [[friendship]], Ash and his friends continue their journey towards [[Nimbasa City]]. | ||
