I watched the episode and Ash didn't fall to his knees, he fell backwards onto his butt.

At the beginning of [[XY119]], Greninja was shown battling an opponent Trainer's {{p|Scizor}}, using Double Team to dodge an incoming attack. Despite Scizor's attempts to hit Greninja with {{m|Bullet Punch}}, Greninja knocked the Pincer Pokémon out with Aerial Ace. Later, during the three-on-three battle between Ash and Sawyer, Greninja was Ash's final Pokémon, going up against Sawyer's {{p|Clawitzer}}. It easily dodged Clawitzer's attempts to hit it with {{m|Dragon Pulse}} and powered through Clawitzer's {{m|Ice Beam}} with Cut, finishing off Clawitzer with a single hit from said attack. It then battled its rival, Sceptile. At first they exchanged blows evenly, with Greninja using Aerial Ace to counter Leaf Blade. When Sceptile attempted to use Bullet Seed to hit Greninja, Greninja blocked this with Water Shuriken. It then used Double Team to dodge Sceptile's Leaf Blade, but was forced to jump back when Sceptile attacked with another Leaf Blade after destroying its copies within seconds. Greninja then attempted to hit Sceptile with Cut, but Sceptile dodged the attack and hit it with Leaf Storm. After getting up, Greninja attempted to blindside Sceptile with its speed and hit it with Aerial Ace, but Sceptile dodged at the last moment and knocked Greninja away with its tail. Ash then attempted to use the Ash-Greninja form as Greninja circled around Sceptile again, moving too fast to be seen. However, much to Ash's shock and surprise, Greninja was not able to transform. Taking advantage of a now distracted and shocked Ash, Sawyer had Sceptile hit Greninja with another Leaf Storm, followed by a Leaf Blade, knocking Greninja out and leaving everyone present shocked. Ash then thanked Greninja and recalled it, but he was apparently left doubtful of his ability to master the form. | At the beginning of [[XY119]], Greninja was shown battling an opponent Trainer's {{p|Scizor}}, using Double Team to dodge an incoming attack.

In [[XY120]], Greninja was Ash's final Pokémon used in his Gym battle against [[Wulfric]] and faced his {{p|Avalugg}}. Although damaged by the {{weather|Hail}}, which also gave Avalugg recovery because of its {{a|Ice Body}} ability, Greninja used its great speed to hit Avalugg with a solid Cut, after dodging the incoming {{m|Stone Edge}}. It then attacked with Aerial Ace, which Avalugg countered with {{m|Gyro Ball}}, repelling Greninja. Greninja then fired several Water Shurikens at Avalugg's feet while the latter kept spinning to shield itself. The cold, however, froze Avalugg's wet feet to the ground, leaving it wide open for another Cut. Now having gained the upper hand, Ash and Greninja were able to activate the Ash-Greninja form and completely overwhelmed Avalugg, sending it sliding backwards with a series of powerful hits from Aerial Ace. Wulfric, however, used Greninja's now even greater speed to his advantage by commanding Avalugg to use {{m|Avalanche}}, which was powered up due to Avalugg acting after its opponent, causing Ash visible pain. Greninja was then able to hit Avalugg with Cut after tearing through its Stone Edge, but Avalugg immediately retaliated by knocking Greninja in the air with another Stone Edge. After another exchange of blows with Aerial Ace and Avalanche, Greninja attacked with another Cut, but this time Avalugg caught it with {{m|Ice Fang}}, slowly freezing Greninja. Unable to escape Avalugg's fangs, Greninja was left vulnerable to a Gyro Ball, sending it flying into the Gym's wall, knocking it out, causing Ash to | In [[XY120]], Greninja was Ash's final Pokémon used in his Gym battle against [[Wulfric]] and faced his {{p|Avalugg}}.

Ash later on oversaw Greninja lying unconscious in the [[Pokémon Center]], blaming himself for their loss and left into the [[Kalos Route 20|Winding Woods]] alone. | ||
