Ash and Pikachu decide to take a walk while Dawn works on her strategy. With Pikachu at his side on a picture-perfect day, Ash wanders into the forest as he spots a group of {{p|Sunflora}} absorbing sun rays. Pikachu follows a {{p|Ledyba}}, stopping as he notes it landing on a large flower. He runs forward and uses his nose to imitate it with a small flower, but the pollen makes him sneeze. He looks at Ash sheepishly when asked if he's okay. As Ash approaches a tree that seems to have something in it, a young boy calls him over. Ash meets [[Nathaniel]] as he tells Ash that he planted [[Honey]] on that tree. Nathaniel is excited to see a real {{p|Pikachu}} and asks Ash's permission to hug his. When Ash consents, Pikachu doesn't wait for Nathaniel to pick him up and quite happily jumps into his arms, perhaps seeing that the boy has a kind heart. Nuzzling the little {{type|Electric}}, Nathaniel reveals his passion to become a Trainer. They notice a {{p|Heracross}} on the tree. Seeing Nathaniel's excitement and joy, Ash thinks about how he used to be young and always wanted to always spend time with Pokémon, noting that being a Trainer is a great privilege. Nathaniel wants to specialize in {{t|Bug}} types as they watch Heracross leave. Ash starts telling him tales of his journey, starting with his own {{AP|Heracross}} loving the sap from {{AP|Bulbasaur}}'s bulb. | Ash and Pikachu decide to take a walk while Dawn works on her strategy.

Back at Dawn's house, Dawn plans with Piplup and {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, setting up two [[Contest combination|combinations]]. Pachirisu runs over to the [[Television|TV]] as Dawn notices a bunch of clipped newspaper articles, about all of Dawn's {{pkmn|Contest}} wins and the [[Hearthome Collection]] that Johanna framed. Piplup and Pachirisu are also pleased, dancing with happiness as both of them are also in the pictures. Johanna returns as they get to the battle on the battle field behind their house. They begin a [[Double Battle|two on two]] with Piplup and Pachirisu against Glameow and Umbreon. Brock shows his romance towards Noelle constantly, but Bellossom and Croagunk keep him in check. Dawn goes first with {{m|Whirlpool}} and {{m|Discharge}}, creating an electrified whirlpool. Johanna's Pokémon use {{m|Quick Attack}} to gracefully dodge, crossing each other's paths and creating an appeal before stopping in front of Johanna and launching a double {{m|Shadow Ball}}, destroying the Whirlpool and knocking {{cat|Dawn's Pokémon}} down. Dawn's Pokémon get up as they invoke their first plan. Piplup fires {{m| | Back at Dawn's house, Dawn plans with Piplup and {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, setting up two [[Contest combination|combinations]].

Though Johanna's Pokémon dodge with a synchronized back flip, the attack creates a wall, masking Pachirisu until the last moment and hitting both with a spinning {{m|Super Fang}}. Dawn celebrates the successful plan, but Johanna makes her pay for her premature celebration by using a double {{m|Attract}}, {{status|Infatuation|infatuating}} both of Dawn's Pokémon before hitting them with a double {{m|Swift}} Attack, [[fainting|knocking them out]]. Dawn is somewhat upset but accepts the defeat, comforting her Pokémon. Still, Johanna was still impressed at her strategy and [[friendship|her bond]] with her Pokémon. It also inspires Ash to take a note from the battle. Glameow and Umbreon look pleased as Johanna hugs her daughter. | ||
Meanwhile, Team Rocket has managed to catch many Goldeen. While they likely have more than enough, [[Jessie]] wants to try for one more. She pulls on her rod and an unhappy {{p|Gyarados}} out of the water. It sends them blasting off with a {{m|Hyper Beam}} strike. | Meanwhile, Team Rocket has managed to catch many Goldeen.
