Ash's Swellow: Difference between revisions

In ''[[DP189|The Semi-Final Frontier!]]'', Swellow was brought back to Ash's team where it battled against [[Tobias]] in the semi-finals of the [[Lily of the Valley Conference]]. It used {{m|Quick Attack}} on Tobias's {{p|Latios}}; however, Latios was able to dodge it. Swellow then used {{m|Aerial Ace}} and flew from the sky towards Latios, coming down with great force. However, Latios used {{m|Luster Purge}} on Swellow, knocking it out.

Right from its debut as a Taillow, Swellow has been tough and persistent. It has been noted many times in the anime how Swellow was overly stubborn and would fight to its last breath in a battle, rather than give up.  An example of Swellow’s determination was in ''[[AG100|Solid as a Solrock]]'' where Ash, knowing that Swellow would enjoy the challenge, ordered a {{m|Thunder}} attack on it. Swellow, determined to win their battle against [[Tate and Liza]], took the attack and used it to win the double battle.
