==Synopsis==
==Blurb==
As {{an|Dawn}}'s upcoming {{pkmn|Contest}} in [[Sandalstraw Town]] approaches, {{ashfr|the group}} stops at a local [[Pokémon Center]]. Dawn decides to {{pkmn|training|train}} and summons {{cat|Dawn's Pokémon|all her Pokémon}}, knowing she only needs one more [[ribbon]] to enter the [[Grand Festival]]. {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} runs forward and collapses, everyone asking if he is okay. Piplup tries to get up and falls again, concerning Dawn. {{an|Barry}} suddenly appears and crashes into {{Ash}} as usual. {{si|Kenny}} also appears and after calling Dawn Dee-Dee (much to her annoyance), asks if she's entering the Contest. Barry reveals that he also knows Kenny since they are both from [[Twinleaf Town]]. Kenny plans to enter the Contest while Barry decides to enter the upcoming [[Pokémon Ping Pong Tournament]] which is also being held in Sandalstraw Town, showing Ash a flyer about it. {{an|Brock}} mentions that a {{pkmn|Trainer}} and one of his or her [[Pokémon]] will partner up as a team to enter. Barry summons {{TP|Barry|Empoleon}} in order to train, planning to enter with it. As everyone watches, Piplup starts to glow, causing Piplup to jump around. Kenny mentions that Piplup is starting to [[Evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Prinplup}}. Everyone's excited, but Piplup braces himself, stopping the evolution and exhausting Piplup to the point of collapse. Brock urges everyone to go to the Center.

<i>When Dawn and Ash reach Sandalstraw Town, they meet two familiar friends: Kenny and Barry! Kenny plans to enter the Sandalstraw Contest, while Barry is training for the upcoming Pokémon Ping-Pong competition—but their conversation is cut short when Piplup glows as if it's ready to evolve! However, Piplup isn't well, so it's off the Pokémon Center so Piplup can rest. Dawn uses this opportunity to talk to Piplup about Evolution, but it gets upset and runs away!
 
Everyone splits up to search the nearby forest, and Dawn finds Piplup using Bide to stop its Evolution. She doesn't understand why it won't evolve, and that makes Piplup angry enough to run from her again. When Dawn chases Piplup deeper into the forest, she finds it stuck in an Ariados web. Dawn saves Piplup from the Ariados, but then they're surrounded by an entire swarm of Ariados! Piplup uses Bide to defeat them, and Dawn realizes this is just like the day when she and Piplup first met.
 
Barry and Kenny are also searching the forest for Piplup, but Barry's Empoleon and Kenny's Prinplup are kidnapped by Team Rocket's giant Piprinoleon robot! The robot finds and grabs Piplup too, so Dawn sneaks inside the robot and confronts Team Rocket. Piplup forces its way through a duct in the robot to reach Dawn and back her up; all this time, it's wanted to remain a Piplup so it can protect Dawn. Piplup uses Whirlpool to bust open the robot, and Dawn's friends arrive to provide support. With their help, Piplup sends Team Rocket shooting into the sky, and Dawn promises to always be partners with her Piplup. No Evolution needed!


At the Center, [[Nurse Joy]] checks Piplup as she reassures Dawn that Piplup only needs to rest. During dinner, Dawn mentions that it still surprises her that Piplup will evolve. Kenny tells Dawn it's no surprise considering how well she's raised him and Barry also congratulates Dawn on a good job but advises that the evolution path from Piplup to Empoleon only gets harder. Kenny then mentions that as Prinplup is double the size of Piplup, she'll have more to show off in contests while Ash mentions that she will need to adapt her battling style just as [[DP100|he adapted]] when {{p|Turtwig}} evolved into {{AP|Grotle}}. Although Ash is skeptical of Dawn mentioning her adaptation to {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}, Dawn is still excited, but Brock displays concern. Outside, {{TRT}} listens in and decides to steal the [[List of Pokémon by evolution family|Piplup evolutionary line]].  
Later, at the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy gives Dawn an Everstone to prevent Piplup from evolving. Now everyone can concentrate on the Sandalstraw Contest—as well as practicing their Pokémon Ping-Pong!</i>

As {{an|Dawn}}'s upcoming {{pkmn|Contest}} in [[Sandalstraw Town]] approaches, she and the others stops at a local [[Pokémon Center]].

During the night, Piplup wakes up and looks at himself in the window's reflection, imagining himself as Prinplup. Dawn comes up from behind and presents Piplup with {{pkmn|food}}, but he refuses. Dawn reveals her excitement for Piplup's evolution, but Piplup doesn't seem enthusiastic as Dawn tries to reassure Piplup. Piplup jumps around as he begins to glow again, the evolution process starting. Dawn tries to get Piplup just let the evolution happen, but Piplup uses {{m|Bide}} to stop evolving, exhausting himself in the progress. Dawn questions Piplup's motives and brings up the positives of evolution, but Piplup gets angry that Dawn appears to be ignoring his unwillingness to evolve and jumps out the window and flees the Center, prompting Dawn to follow. Barry and Empoleon pressure Brock, Kenny and Ash to train for the Ping-Pong tournament (despite the fact that Brock and Kenny don't plan to enter), but Dawn shows up and mentions her situation. Outside, Brock mentions his concerns that Piplup does not want to evolve, using Bide to stop evolution and expend energy. Everyone splits up to search as Kenny summons {{TP|Kenny|Prinplup}} to help search. As Dawn searches on her own, she spots a light in the forest.

Line 50: Line 61:
Dawn thanks Piplup for saving her again, and realizes that Piplup's memory of their first day together is why he wants to stay as he is, and tearfully apologizes to her Pokémon for not understanding his feelings. Piplup tells Dawn that it's ok and with her friends watching on, Dawn happily picks up her partner and best friend telling him she's happy for him to remain as her Piplup forever which delights Piplup, and the two reaffirm their bond together.

At the Center, Nurse Joy finishes tending to Piplup, Prinplup and Empoleon and three happily run to their respective trainers. Nurse Joy then tells Dawn she has something for her, and {{TP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}} presents Dawn with an {{evostone|Everstone}}, which has the power to prevent a Pokémon from evolving for as long as it wants. Dawn and Piplup gratefully accept the gift, knowing this means Piplup won't have to use Bide to prevent the evolution anymore. With the excitement over for now,  Ash and Barry start training for the Ping Pong competition while Dawn and Kenny practice for the Sandalstraw Contest, with everyone more focused than ever on achieving their goals.
