Sawyer: Difference between revisions

Ash sent out Greninja as his final Pokémon, sparking a final showdown between the two Pokémon, whose rivalry had only escalated with time. After a brief struggle, Greninja transformed into Ash-Greninja, while Sawyer Mega Evolved Sceptile. Despite Mega Sceptile taking a huge hit from {{m|Aerial Ace}}, Sawyer seemed to match Ash move for move, hitting Ash-Greninja twice with Leaf Storm. Ash-Greninja managed to avoid what would have been a decisive Frenzy Plant, and then using Double Team, before absorbing all of the clones into {{m|Water Shuriken}}, causing the move to grow in size, allowing it to easily push past Leaf Storm, and give Ash the win. Despite the loss, Sawyer felt no disappointment or ill-will towards Ash, expressing his desire to keep on getting stronger and gaining more experience, so that he could continue to grow as a Trainer and eventually surpass Ash, shaking Ash's hand in a friendly respect.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', Sawyer and Sceptile ate some Lumiose Galettes with Ash, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, all of their Pokémon, along with [[Meyer]] and [[Clembot]]. Later on, he and Sceptile viewed some of the battles that had occurred throughout the Kalos League in order to expose themselves to new forms of battle strategies following their loss to Ash. During this, Sawyer expressed that despite gaining a lot of experience and truly enjoying a battle for the first time, and being able to put on a good face in order to wish Ash good luck in the finals, he couldn't ignore the immense frustration that was building up within him as a result of the loss. With tears running down his face, he admitted to Sceptile that he wanted to battle more than he did at the Kalos League. Shaking off his tears, he proclaimed his resolve to gain even more experience, and that by sitting and moping around, he would never be able to surpass Ash one day. The next day, he sat with Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, Tierno, {{an|Trevor}}, and {{an|Shauna}}, as the finals between Ash and [[Alain]] began.

In ''[[XY133|Coming Apart at the Dreams!]]'', the four Trainers met up with [[Diantha]] and begged her to allow them assist, saying that they couldn't stand by and watch everything around them be destroyed. Diantha accepted their request, much to their delight, and instructed the four to assist all of the elderly and children still stuck in the area.

Sawyer made a cameo appearance in ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', then reappeared along with Shauna, Tierno, and Trevor in ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'' and ''[[XY136|Forming a More Perfect Union!]]'', where they watched as Ash, his friends, Alain, [[Mairin]], {{an|Professor Sycamore}}, Diantha, the Kalos [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Malva]], and Steven fought against the [[Giant Rock]]. After [[Squishy]] and [[Z2]], in their {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Zygarde|Complete Forme}}, destroyed the Giant Rock with {{m|Core Enforcer}}, he celebrated along with the others.

In ''[[XY138|The First Day of the Rest of Your Life!]]'', Sawyer joined in the dancing throughout Lumiose City, which was created during Serena, Shauna, and [[Jessie]]'s {{pkmn|Showcase}} performance. He later revealed his intent to assist Steven in learning more about the Giant Rock, so as to learn even more about Pokémon. Promising to one day battle again, he and Ash said their goodbyes.

He appeared in a flashback in ''[[XY139|Facing the Needs of the Many!]]'', and then physically reappeared in ''[[XY140|Till We Compete Again!]]''. In the latter episode, Sawyer was seen at [[Lysandre Labs]], helping Steven study the Giant Rock that once resided there. He proceeded to write down notes on what Steven was telling him.

===''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''===

In [[JN116]], Sawyer appeared watching the [[Masters Tournament]] match between {{an|Lance}} and [[Diantha]] on TV, alongside Tierno, Shauna, and Trevor.
