: Dawn witnesses Ash leaving to train with his Pokémon and follows out of curiosity. Later, Dawn finds herself inspired by Ash's training, but, reflecting upon her recent Contest failure, suddenly begins crying. Ash, upon noticing Dawn's tears, asks whether she is okay and whether she has something in her eyes, the latter inquiry an (albeit faulty) assumption to which Dawn quickly agrees. Eager to avoid the possibility of having him worry over her, Dawn immediately follows this exchange with an invitation to snack on ice cream. A hungry and clueless Ash eagerly accepts.

: Dawn attempts to convince [[Maylene]] to take up Gym Leading again, perhaps finding herself able to relate with the Gym Leader's confidence issues.

: Ash calms Dawn's nerves after she makes what she thought had been a bad appeal and consoles her through the use of Dawn's frequent catchphrase, "''No need to worry!''" (Japanese: "''Daijōbu!''"). While doing so, Ash expresses an encouraging look.

: After Paul tells Ash that he has not seen either Brock or Dawn, Ash wonders if his friends have gotten lost in the maze. He then imagines Dawn yelling, "No need to worry!" while being {{m|Bind|binded}} by an {{p|Onix}} and immediately yells out, "That's when I worry the most!" In the original Japanese episode, Hikari/Dawn yells painfully, "I'm all right! I'm all right!" while Satoshi/Ash wryly says "You're not all right at all!" He quickly tells Pikachu that they need to go find everyone.

: Ash enrolls Dawn in the {{ci|Hearthome}} [[Tag Battle Tournament]] in an effort to cheer her up following a recent Contest loss.

: Throughout the episode, Ash was constantly joking around with Dawn. Some PearlShippers think that this was his way of making the goodbye not as heartbreaking.

At the end of the episode, Ash becomes worried about Dawn when she was crying as he left so he yells her catchphrase and cheers her up.

* Since ''[[DP011|Mounting a Coordinator Assault!]]'', Ash and Dawn are often seen exchanging high-fives whenever one of them accomplishes something, which might possibly portray a special friendship.

* Ash and Dawn are the only main characters to trade Pokémon with each other: Ash's {{TP|Dawn|Aipom}} for Dawn's {{AP|Buizel}}. This may symbolize they highly trust in themselves.

*[[Dawn's Buneary]] has {{s|Lagomorph|a crush}} on [[Ash's Pikachu]]. This could be a sign that Dawn may have a crush on Ash, since {{an|Professor Oak}} and [[Brock]] have said in the past that Pokémon represent the feelings of their masters and when two Pokémon fall in love, there is a good chance the Trainers will too. It is to be pointed out that Buneary developed this crush ''before'' Dawn caught it. The claim has also been refuted at various points during the series, so the feelings of the Pokémon are not always definitive to the feelings of the Trainers.

* Ash has watched all of Dawn's Contests. He did not do this with May because he would sometimes be training his Pokémon instead of watching her.

* Dawn is the source of some of the moves and strategies used in battle by Ash, which include [[Ash's Buizel|Ice Aqua Jet]] & [[Dawn's Piplup|Spin]]. Ash watching Dawn's Contest may (in part<!--so as not to exclude their friendship-->) be so he can learn new things to apply in battle, though some say this is because of advice given to him by others.

* One of the movie posters for ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'' depicts Pikachu and Piplup sitting on Ash's and Dawn's heads, respectively. Some fans have pointed out that the distance portrayed between Dawn and Ash is very small. However, other fans point out how Ash's hair, which can usually be seen from the sides of his hat, is not present. This may mean the Trainers are not really wearing their hats.
