While {{pkmn|training}} with his {{AP|Gligar}}, {{Ash}} asks it to turn. Unfortunately, Gligar makes a wrong turn, and when Ash points this out, Gligar is unable to recover and crashes. Meanwhile, {{an|Dawn}} is flicking through {{DL|Magazines in the Pokémon world|Poké Chic}}, a fashion magazine for [[Pokémon Stylist]]s that features Pokémon in outfits. Dawn then pulls out a vest for Buneary that she had designed and [[Johanna]] had sewed; Buneary loves it. When she hesitantly asks for {{AP|Pikachu}}'s opinion, his positive response makes her blush with happiness. Suddenly, Buneary hears a {{p|Chingling}}, which hugs Buneary, Pikachu, Ash, and Dawn. Dawn scans Chingling on her [[Pokédex]]. [[Francesca]] then comes looking for her Chingling. She introduces herself as a Pokémon Magician, and does a magic act; she makes three Chingling appear from a tablecloth, as well as a {{p|Pidgey}}. She then tried to make a flower appear from her wand, but Chingling spoils it. | |||
Meanwhile, {{TRT}} is watching and [[Jessie]] suggests stealing the "enchanted" tablecloth until [[James]] and {{MTR}} say it was just a trick. Meowth and James decide to steal Chingling, imagining its usefulness as a multipurpose alarm clock, and they also start singing like it. Meowth says that Chingling isn't the only one who could sing. | |||
Francesca | Francesca does not know what to do with her spoiled Chingling, so the gang decides to get it to battle. Having never been in a {{pkmn|battle}} before, Francesca is trained by Ash and Dawn to see if Chingling could get the hang of it. Gligar had by this time ruined Buneary's vest, so Dawn decides to take it off for the battle. In the middle of the battle, {{an|Brock}} stops Ash and Dawn because he thought Chingling had seen enough. When the battle starts, Francesca tells Chingling to use {{m|Astonish}}, but it doesn't attack. {{AP|Turtwig}} then uses {{m|Razor Leaf}} and knocks out Chingling. | ||
Before they could do anything else, Team Rocket | Before they could do anything else, Team Rocket appears and takes Chingling. Ash tells Turtwig to cut the strings, which predictably doesn't work. Dawn then has Buneary use {{m|Ice Beam}} to cut the ropes, after which Buneary launches {{TP|Brock|Happiny}} into the air to catch Chingling. Afterwards, Ash believes Chingling had matured, but it then starts hugging again, proving him wrong. Francesca tries the Three Part Harmony again, but Chingling keeps hugging randomly. Team Rocket then tries using a "Tone Deaf Mecha Chingling", generating a smokescreen and stealing Chingling. They put them in a line and James takes one of them, knowing that Chingling evolves into Chimecho. Meanwhile, {{AP|Staravia}} notices Chingling and brings Ash and {{ashfr}} over. Ash uses the "Tone Deaf Mecha" smokescreen on Jessie and Meowth and then has {{AP|Chimchar}} attack them with {{m|Flame Wheel}}, which blasts them off. However, James is still with the spoiled Chingling, and he has {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}} use {{m|Teeter Dance}} on it. This causes Chingling to counter with {{m|Hidden Power}} and {{m|Confusion}}, maturing itself in the process. | ||
