<i>On the way to Fennel Valley, Ash's Aipom scampers away and runs into a Weavile with an attitude. Aipom's up for a battle, but Weavile deals it a harsh defeat! Luckily, Ash and his friends meet a passing wilderness guardian named Kerrigan, who lets Aipom rest at his home. Kerrigan explains that the Weavile belonged to a local group of Weavile and Sneasel, but now it's alone and challenges any Trainer's Pokémon it sees. Ash resolves to help Kerrigan find the stray Weavile before anyone else is hurt.
 
Team Rocket wants to find Weavile, but once they do, it's not interested in joining their gang. Ash and his friends can't seem to get through to the Weavile, either. Then a Sneasel shows up on the scene, and the truth comes out! The stray Weavile was leader of the Weavile and Sneasel group, until another Weavile came and beat it in a battle for leadership. However, the new leader turned out to be a bully, and so Sneasel left the group as well.
 
That's when the Weavile leader shows up to bring Sneasel back. Ash challenges the stray Weavile to stand up for itself and help Sneasel, and both Weavile decide to battle. The stray Weavile comes out the winner and becomes leader once again. The losing Pokémon won't be left out in the cold this time, because Sneasel asks both Weavile to cooperate with each other—and they agree! Now the forest will once again be at peace, and our heroes can continue their journey to Ash's rematch with Brandon!</i>
 
==Plot==
The episode started off with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} walking through the woods with {{AP|Aipom}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} walking outside of their [[Poké Ball]]s. Ash was ready and raring to go to fight {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} of the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Pyramid}}. Finally, after a long while in the woods, Ash and the others made it out and to a field.


Everyone decided to take a rest while Aipom and Pikachu ran off to play. Aipom, interested in the flowers, wandered off and got lost and came face-to-face with a wild {{p|Weavile}}. The Weavile challenged Aipom to a [[Pokémon battle|battle]] and proceeded to use {{m|Shadow Ball}}; the explosion alerted the gang that Aipom was in trouble. Once the gang caught up to Aipom, {{an|May}} scanned the Weavile with her [[Pokédex]]. Ash asked if the Weavile wants to battle, to which it replied with another Shadow Ball. The gang moves out of harms way, only to be attacked by another Shadow Ball.

The gang looked to see Weavile was gone. A man ran over, asking if they were okay. He saw Aipom and said he had a hut in the woods; a nice place for Aipom to rest. The gang followed him.

Meanwhile, [[Team Rocket]] were eating their rice balls, watching the whole thing. {{MTR}} said it'd be best if they stayed away from the Weavile, but [[Jessie]] had other plans. She was eager to catch it. Meowth claimed that they were going to give it to {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}}, but Jessie wanted it all to herself. Angrily, claimed he wanted to fight the Weavile himself.

The episode switches to a small cabin in the woods. The man from earlier introduces himself as [[Kerrigan]], part of the Wilderness Guard Core. He's the one that watches over the forest. After the gang introduces themselves, they inquire about the Weavile. Kerrigan says the Weavile is a stray and that there is a gang of both Weavile and {{p|Sneasel}}. He claims that Weavile had left the group and now challenges random {{pkmn|Trainer}}s to battle it. Kerrigan decides it'd be best if he went outside and searched around. The gang decides to tag along, leaving Aipom to rest after her harsh battle.

Soon, a Sneasel runs over, happy to see the stray Weavile. Meowth begins to translate their conversation. Weavile asks the Sneasel why she had followed it, to which Sneasel replies that she wasn't following the Weavile, she was escaping from the rogue Weavile that that particular stray Weavile had fought with for leadership. A flashback shows the fierce battle between the two Weavile and shows how the stray had gotten those three scars on its cheek. Weavile had lost and that was why it became a stray.

Weavile claimed that its motives behind attacking the random trainers was to be big and tough and show everyone what its made of. The female Sneasel was sick of being pushed around by the rogue Weavile, which turned out to be extremely mean, so she ran away from the group. Immediately following the speech, the rogue Weavile shows up. The Sneasel cowers behind the stray Weavile, to which Jessie responded that the Weavile was hers. Weavile, angered by her, blasted her and the other two away with a Shadow Ball.

With some encouraging words from Ash, the battle between the four Weavile and the stray Weavile ensued. First, the three Weavile attacked, but were in turn attacked by Ash's Pikachu. The rogue Weavile looked angry and attacked the stray. The battle begun with both Weavile running along the river bank. The rogue used Shadow Ball. This was easily dodged by the stray who also used Shadow Ball. The Shadow Ball hit the water, splashing it up between the two. The rogue Weavile came through the water and tried to {{m|slash}} Weavile's face with its claws. Weavile was able to block the attack with its own claws and send the rogue Weavile flying into the water. It then used Shadow Ball where the rogue splashed into the river.

Ash and friends went back to the cabin, finding a fully recovered Aipom. The gang said goodbye to Kerrigan. Aipom happily ran off, to which Ash said 'that Aipom's nuts'. They soon chased after Aipom, happily going to the Battle Pyramid.

=== Errors ===
===Errors===
* In one scene, one of the Weavile's ear feathers is blue instead of the usual red.
* Ash's Aipom takes damage from Weavile's Shadow Ball even though Ghost-type attacks do not affect Normal-type Pokémon. This is an example of [[anime physics]]. Later, Weavile threatens Meowth with Shadow Ball and he becomes scared, reinforcing this.
* In several scenes, Aipom's Swift attack fails to hit its opponent even though Swift is an unavoidable move.
** Weavile also manages to dodge {{m|Swift}} twice, an attack that ignores {{stat|accuracy}} and {{stat|evasion}} in the games.
* Ash's Aipom takes damage from Weavile's Shadow Ball even though Ghost-type moves do not affect Normal-type Pokémon. This is an example of [[Anime physics]].
* When {{AP|Pikachu}} tracks down Weavile, its right ear feather is gray instead of red.
** Weavile's left ear feather is gray as well just before blasting {{TRT}} off.
