Whitney's Miltank: Difference between revisions

===History===

Miltank (sometimes referred to as '''Milty''' by her Trainer) first appeared in ''[[EP158|A Goldenrod Opportunity]]''. In her first appearance, Whitney sent her out during Ash's Gym Battle as her last Pokémon when her {{p|Nidorina}} and {{p|Clefairy}} lost to {{AP|Cyndaquil}}, with the latter forfeiting. Cyndaquil tried its best to defeat Miltank but was taken out by a super-effective Rollout. Miltank's next opponent was {{AP|Totodile}}. Totodile used {{m|Water Gun}} on Miltank to get her wet. However, Water Gun had no effect on the Milk Cow Pokémon and Totodile was taken out by a stronger Rollout due to its effect. With two Pokémon taken out on Ash's side, {{AP|Pikachu}} was the last one. Pikachu used {{m|Thunderbolt}} on Miltank since Water Gun would have given him the upper hand. However, Miltank's consecutive spinning by using Rollout caused her to dry up quickly and the {{type|Electric}} move was ineffective. As a result, Miltank's Rollout made contact with Pikachu, taking him out and winning the match for Whitney.

In ''[[EP159|A Dairy Tale Ending]]'', Whitney sent out Miltank to battle {{TRT}} after they raided her uncle [[Milton]]'s farm to get some food. Miltank managed to send them flying with Rollout. Afterwards, Miltank demonstrated her Rollout attack on a grassy field and showed it to the group. Her training got interrupted by Team Rocket's return with [[Team Rocket's mechas|a giant rolling barrel]] that snatched both Miltank and Pikachu. The barrel used its own Rollout attack as a clean getaway. Miltank and Pikachu were freed by Cyndaquil and Totodile using Tackle and Water Gun, respectively. After Team Rocket's defeat, Miltank was used in the rematch against Ash. Ash relied on a strategy during the rematch that was used earlier to defeat Team Rocket's giant barrel-shaped mecha. Cyndaquil was Miltank's first opponent. Cyndaquil was able to tire Miltank out. However, it was once again defeated by her super-effective Rollout. Her next opponent was Totodile. Totodile dug trenches using his Water Gun in order to divert Miltank's Rollout. Totodile, too, was beaten by Miltank. Pikachu was the last opponent for Miltank. Miltank headed towards Pikachu but hit the trenches instead as Pikachu was super fast. Pikachu headed for the trenches and Miltank was on top of it, causing Pikachu to toss Miltank in the air and defeat her with a {{m|ThunderShock}}. Whitney admitted defeat since her Miltank lost and she is her toughest Pokémon.

Whitney's Miltank started off with an advantage due to her powerful Rollout attack, but when Ash switched from {{p|Psyduck}} to {{AP|Pikachu}}, Pikachu hid in one of the craters caused by Miltank's rolling and was able to survive the attack and strike from below, defeating Miltank.
