Pokemon Best Wishes Episode 9: Out of control Pendora! Rescue Kibago!
The episode starts off with a battle between Dento and Iris. Ash is sitting on a rock on the sidelines with Pikachu beside him. Ash asks if he can battle Iris instead but she replies no because he takes battles way too seriously. Ash tells her that’s what battles are meant to be like but she doesn’t want her kibago to get hurt by volt tackle, so Ash says he wont use that move but she still wont let him battle. Kibago is happy to fight, Dento says that Yanapuu should do what it is told so Yanapuu agrees, Ash doesn’t understand but Iris tells him that he should wait and see so she orders kibago to use scratch.
After the opening Kibago runs in but Dento orders Yanapuu to fire a Bullet seed attack, gently. So slowly, one by one Yanapuu fires single bullet seeds. They hit Kibago but it starts to hurt it which send Kibago to start crying. Iris calms it down and she says it’s just a practice battle. Iris and Dento explains that it’s just a battle to get Kibago used to battling. Ash says that it would be better if it was a proper battle, but Iris says that’s what makes him a child, because Dento is a gentleman and that he is helping her by Dento only using 20% of Yanapuu’s power so Kibago doesn’t get hurt. Ash mentions that it’s the first time she has battled in front of Ash and Dento tells Ash kindly to let Iris do what she wants. Ash lets it go and Iris asks Kibago if he is ready. Kibago says yes and Iris goes in for another scratch but Yanapuu holds Kibago’s head while Kibago tries to scratch Yanapuu. Iris asks Dento what he is doing and Dento explains that is a technique, Yanapuu prepares for a Solarbeam. While Yanapuu gets ready to attack, Ash asks if Kibago has another attack, She says yes but she doesn’t want to use it, Ash asks her again but she says no. Yanapuu fires a small and weak solar beam, it grazes Kibago’s head and Kibago rolls backwards while that happens, Ash mentions that it’s a solarbeam like he has never seen before. Ash asks if she should do a real battle now and she says fine so she said Kibago has another amazing move, Ash is exited and Iris tells Kibago to use Dragon Rage. A blue aura builds up in Kibago, it turns into a blue sphere, then he unleashes and bites on it creating a crater around him. The smoke from the blast goes away and Iris mentions that it flopped.
We cut to Team Rocket (in Shippou city) in a rundown building, they are talking to giovanni via a video on a laptop. He mentions that they need to go the resort desert, he says that the continents in the Pokemon world used to be one, but a meteor was burning up on it’s way to earth and it split into multiple pieces and they split up the super continent into smaller ones. The biggest piece from the meteorite is in the resort desert in Isshu. He mentions that the area near it is giving energy from it which is similar to the energy at the dream site, and he also mentions that another agent *CoughTakutoCough* will go with them as well because it’s a big mission.
Then we go back to Ash and Co. chilling in a tree branch, Dento mentions that the attack from kibago should be called Dragon sneeze, Ash agrees and Iris gets angry and says it’s a real problem. Ash asks if it knows anymore attack, she says no and that Dragon rage should of looked different to what happened during their practice battle. She says that it will be a long time until kibago becomes a Ononokussu and that she has been taking Kibago’s battling slowly. Kibago runs up a nearby tree with Pikachu following, Kibago takes two apples off the tree and his tucks hold them by poking his tusks in the apples. Kibago comes back and Dento and Iris praise Kibago so Kibago runs away to collect more apples. Ash Praises Kibago’s power and Dento does as well, so Ash asks Iris if he can battle now, she is shy and says that she doesn’t want it to get hurt. Ash asks how she got Kibago and Dento asks as well, so she replies by saying she got it from her home town’s Matriarch. We go to a flash back and we see that her town is known for dragon Pokemon. The Matriarch says that she needs to go on a great trial, the old Matriarch opens a basket and a Kibago was inside sleeping, it hatched the other day and she asks for Iris to take it, so Iris does, the Matriarch says that by evolving kibago into ononokussu, it will help her mature as a trainer, she says that Iris can raise it however she wants but don’t ever forget about it. The flash back ends Iris says that it has been a while since Kibago battled so she asked Dento to do it. Ash asks if the Matriarch is Iris’s grandmother but she says she is just the chief village.
Kibago is on another branch far away and it then falls while pikachu watches, Kibago falls in-between a Pendora’s horns. Pikachu jumps down and uses Iron tail, but it did nothing Pendora runs after Pikachu with Kibago still stuck between it’s horns. Kibago launches another bad Dragon rage and Ash and Co. notice it and run after it. They run into Pikachu and Pikachu tries to tell them what happened but they don’t understand. Then they see Pendora and they notice what has happened to Kibago. Ash scans Pendora on his Pokedex and it mentions that Pendora is tough in battle and that it will try it’s hardest always to deliver the final hit. So Pendora chases the group and spits out a toxic attack on a nearby rock. Dento and Ash call out Tsutaja and Yanapuu, Yanapuu fires a proper Bullet seed in front of Pendora as it runs and Tsutaja grabs Pendora by the horns with vine whip but Pendora is strong and it throws Tsutaja causing it pain. Ash recalls Tsutaja. Iris pulls out a Pokeball, Ash and Dento are shocked to know that she has another Pokemon, Ash tells her to bring it out but she is reluctant, so then she throws the Pokeball. Out comes Doryuzu, in hibernation mode, because it is scrunched up like it is drilling. The pokedex says that when it drills it can pierce through an Iron plate. Dento wonders why it is like that, Iris just leaves it there, they decide to attack again. Ash sends out Pokabu, Ash tells Pikachu and Pokabu to use Thunderbolt and Ember. They fire it in front of Pendora, Pendora stops running and Dento’s Yanapuu fires a powerful solarbeam which hits Pendora. Iris swing down from a tree vine and grabs Kibago from Pendora’s horns. Pokabu and Yanapuu return to their Pokeballs. Pendora is angry and it kicks the ground with it’s back left leg, that leads to it kicking Doryuzu.
Doryuzu rolls down and falls on a nearby rock, drill first. It drills through he rock and comes back up to attack Pendora, Ash tells Iris to order it to battle, but Iris says no because it wont listen, Doryuzu hits back a toxic attack from Pendora because it doesn’t affect Doryuzu, which Dento said. Doryuzu uses Drill liner and attacks Pendora, then Pendora charges towards Doryuzu but Doryuzu throws Pendora into the distance. Iris apologizes to Pendora. Doryuzu goes back to it’s hibernation mode. Iris returns Doryuzu. Dento mentions that Iris should take things slowly with Doryuzu and Kibago. Ash asks for a battle but Iris says no and that Ash should battle Pikachu with himself. Ash takes that seriously and gets ready for a battle, Dento calls Pikachu and Ash a unique couple. Pikachu used Thunderbolt on the wild Ash but it’s not effective, Pikachu uses Voltackle and Ash uses Quick attack, the attacks collided and Iris, Dento and Kibago watch while Ash continues to battle Pikachu.
