XY059: Difference between revisions

Later that afternoon, Ash and Serena meet each other at the monorail station as they promised. Serena has found presents for Fennekin and Pancham, but Ash has had no such luck and is worried that he won't be able to find the right gift for his Pokémon. As he enters the monorail station ahead of Serena, however, Ash is suddenly approached by workers at the station and congratulated for being the millionth visitor to the monorail, being given a long blue ribbon as a prize. On the ride back, Ash confides to Serena his difficulties in finding a present, and she asks him what ''he'' would want as a gift, because all of his Pokémon are similar to him. Thinking about her words, Ash has a stroke of inspiration for a gift and runs to the woods outside Coumarine City, searching for his gift to his Pokémon. While searching, he sees a {{p|Dunsparce}}, but fails to catch it because he has no [[Poké Ball]]s with him. Even though he has no Poké Balls, Ash still needs to finish what he has to do.

When Serena arrives back at the Pokémon Center, she sits down at the table Clemont is working at and the two of them work on their presents while Bonnie decides to give all of the Pokémon a present herself by drawing a portrait of all of them. Finally, the presents are finished and Ash runs up to them outside the Pokémon Center, holding a huge sack over his shoulder. The group all heads up to the Pledging Tree, where they place their presents underneath it. Just as Ramos begins the ceremony, however, a huge vacuum begins taking away all of the presents. {{AP|Frogadier}}, being the quickest to react, aims a {{m|Water Pulse}} at the source of the vacuum and causes Team Rocket to fall out of the tree. The heroes are shocked to see Team Rocket and demands them to give back everyone's presents, but the crooks refuse and starts using the vacuum to suck up the Pokémon. Thinking fast, Ash tells {{AP|Pikachu}} to use {{m|Iron Tail}} to cut the vacuum's hose, stopping it. Enraged, [[Jessie]] sends out {{TP|Jessie|Pumpkaboo}} to use {{m|Shadow Ball}}, but it gets blocked by Frogadier's Water Pulse. [[James]] sends out {{TP|James|Inkay}} to use {{m|Psybeam}}, but Bunnelby blocks it with {{m|Mud Shot}}. {{TP|Serena|Fennekin}}, Pikachu and Chespin use {{m|Flamethrower}}, {{m|Thunderbolt}} and {{m|Pin Missile}}, blasting off Team Rocket.

With all the presents returned safely to the Pokémon, the ceremony begins and everybody begins exchanging gifts. Serena gives Fennekin and Pancham a pink ribbon and special sunglasses, respectively; Clemont shows Chespin, Bunnelby, and {{TP|Clemont|Luxio}} the music box he made for them; Bonnie shows everybody her drawing, and Ash gives all of his Pokémon a huge pile of [[Berry|Berries]] and tells them to dig in. Meanwhile, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] both give presents to their Pokémon, including {{TR|Meowth}}, and [[Nurse Joy]] presents her {{TP|Nurse Joy|Wigglytuff}} with a gift as well.
