Sinnoh Part 31

Continuing their journey, the group manages to find James' vacation house and they helped James get away from Jessebelle. But in the end, they are still blasting off. After that, they meet an Air Battle Master named McCann, after battling his Scizor with their Gliscor, he offers Ash and Lillie to let him train Gliscor until the League. Ash and Lillie gives him the option to choose and Gliscor decides to train with McCan for a while.

They met Zoey and Candice on the way and Zoey reveals that she has five ribbons and Ash also reveals the same. Candice asks, "So Ash and Lillie, have you got the eighth badge yet?"

"Well, we are heading to the Sunyshore City for the next Gym badge." Ash says. "We are going to battle Uncle Volkner for the final badge."

Candice smiles and says, "You're going to be shocked by Dad if you challenge him, but I know you can do it."

"Wait, your father is the Sunyshore Gym Leader?" Lucas asks. "I never knew about that."

"Well, both the Ketchum and the Aether family are strong after all, and I am glad to be a part of the Aether." Candice says.

Then Dawn also tells Zoey about her problems with Mamoswine in the coordinating, and Zoey suggests that she uses Cyndaquil to team up with Mamoswine and she agrees to try it out.

After they part ways again, they find a grandma named Wilma and she is tutoring her Altaria the move Draco Meteor. On the way, they find a wild Gible and it bites Ash's head just as they see it.

"Ash!" Lillie says as she pulls him out. "Are you okay?"

"I am fine. I think Gible wants to use Draco Meteor, too." Ash replies.

Gible then shoots one, but fails and it lands directly on Piplup.

"Piplup, are you alright?" Dawn asks.

"I am fine…" He says with displeasure and he starts to yell at Gible, only to be bitten on the head as he quickly jumps into Dawn's arms.

"There." Wilma simply rubs Gible's body, like a massage, and he lets go. Ash tries to command Gible, but this second attempt also fails and strikes Piplup.

"What's the big idea? Why am I always being hit?" Piplup yells.

"Maybe you shouldn't get too closer." Ash replies to him.

"Indeed, maybe it will be sometime before Gible masters it." Wilma says.

Then, out of the blue, giant boulders begin falling from the sky and send the group scattering, Lucas asks, "Is that Draco Meteor?"

"No, that is just rocks." Wilma says. But in the midst of the confusion, a bubble comes down and traps Altaria. Team Rocket fly into view and reel in their catch. They introduce themselves to Wilma, and then fly off in their balloon while the fallen boulders erupt into colored smoke to seal the getaway after Pikachu's and Piplup's Thunderbolt and Bubble Beam fail to break the bubble trapping Altaria.

Ash and Lillie are the ones that pursue, while the others are helping Wilma moving forward due to her old age. Gible, while not invited, follows by way of using Dig.

"Where did they go?" Ash says in frustration while they see Gible pop out of the ground.

"Gible, do you know where they are?" Lillie decides to ask, but Gible ends up leading them to a berry bush. So Ash calls out his Drifblim for help while he and Lillie continue on foot. Gible seems torn between his snack and his new friends, but his stomach wins. Coming upon a huge cliff, Ash and Lillie are forced to climb it.

Lillie starts to fall and Ash yells, "Lillie!" But Lillie sends out Magnezone and catches herself. Ash also falls, but catches sight of Gible's dorsal fin as he races up the cliff-side. Ash manages to grab onto the fin, and zooms up to the top.

Ash's Drifblim comes across Team Rocket's balloon, but is captured by a net trap Meowth set up so that it can't follow them. Nearby, Team Rocket gloats at their success with evading the twerps and rolls off in their new Altaria robot which has Altaria trapped in the stomach area. The Humming Pokémon continues to use Ice Beam with little success until it decides to alternate with Flamethrower, with the temperature flux finally creating a big crack in the capsule. Altaria begins ramming the bubble side to side, which knocks the mecha off balance and causes it to crash straight into a giant boulder.

From underground, Gible hears the crash and digs up to find Team Rocket. Gible instantly bites down on Jessie's hair before devouring all of Team Rocket's robot. Jessie retaliates by using her Seviper, but Gible proves quick enough to evade and tries Draco Meteor again, but fails.

"Drifblim!" Ash and Lillie found the Pokemon tied in the net and they go save it, while the others catch up to them. Just then, they spot the failed Draco Meteor, and it can only be Gible.

"Piplup, are you okay?" Dawn yells after the meteor hits, Piplup mutters, "Not again..."

A use of Dragon Pulse by Gible unnerves Team Rocket, and while he seems tired, Seviper goes in for the kill with Bite, but is stopped by a Thunderbolt. Ash, his friends, and Wilma appear with Pikachu and Piplup leading the group. James adds Carnivine to the battle to even the odds and Pikachu and Piplup easily tangle Seviper and Carnivine up before Persian uses Iron Tail to free Altaria for good. Gible decides to help some more, and it uses Draco Meteor, which finally succeeds and sends Team Rocket blasting off.

"That is great, Gible, can you do it again?" Ash asks, and in celebration, he uses the move again, but it crash solely into PIplup once more.

"Why did I have to suffer this..." Piplup mutters and faints once more.

Later, Wilma directs Ash and friends towards Daybreak Town and gives him a Garchompite for their efforts, and Ash wonders where Gible has gone. They leave Wilma and Altaria and continue on, but Gible emerges from a nearby bush and sees them going. It appears that Gible is debating whether to follow the group or stay in the forest.


As they continue to walk through the forest, Ash feels his leg being poked, he asks Absol, "Are you the one that pokes me?" But Absol just shakes her head. Just then,Gible jumps out of the burrow and bites on Ash's head.

"Hey, aren't you the Gible from before?" Lillie asks as she pulls him away from Ash.

"Maybe he wants to join him." Tox says.

Ash throws a Poké Ball, but Gible devours it. Ash asks Gible again if it does want to go, but Gible's simple grunts confuse and annoy Ash.

Officer Jenny arrives and she confronts Ash, asks, "Is this your Gible?"

"No, it is still wild." Ash says, but Gible just bites her head before running away. Then Ash and the others ask the problem and they are taken to a park where many objects have been partially devoured with bite marks apparent.

Gible shows up and chomps on a bench. Ash tries to scold Gible, but it bites his head again before running away.

Ash and Jenny pursue as Barry, riding a bicycle, runs into Ash.

"Ash? How dare you to bump into me again, I am going to fine you for doing that!"

"Hey, you are the one who bumps into me." Ash says.

"Then let's have a battle to settle it out. I already have six badges." Barry says.

"I have seven, and nice bike by the way." Ash says.

Barry reveals that although he was originally heading to Sunyshore City, he made a detour to Eterna since there was a free bicycle distribution event, before stopping in Hearthome to reserve a battle with Fantina.

While Barry talked, Gible quickly devoured his new bike, leaving only the rubber tires, infuriating him. "Hey, what did your Gible do to my bike?" Barry yells at Ash.

"He is still a wild Pokemon, it is not mine." Ash says.

Then Barry tries to catch it, but Ash protests that he wants to catch it first.

Barry brings out Empoleon, having it launch Drill Peck. Gible dodges before retaliating with Rock Smash, but Empoleon dodges and hits with Steel Wing, following with a Hydro Cannon that sends Gible flying. Ash pursues as Barry realizes his fumble in not catching Gible.

Ash and Pikachu try to locate Gible, finding it clinging to a tree branch on a cliff, struggling not to fall. "Oh no, Gible, hang in there." Ash says as he climbs down, but a rock crumbles and he goes into a free fall. Gible notices and grabs Ash out of the air, struggling to keep both of them from falling.

"Gible..." Ash says as Gible suddenly starts to glow, it evolves into Gabite and then brings Ash back to the cliff top.

"Wow, you evolved." Verity says in surprise to the Gabite, "Yeah, now you are a Gabite." Emmily says.

Team Rocket shows up with another mecha and takes Gabite, reciting their motto. Gabite tries to bite the arm, but it is highly reinforced. The mecha fires smoke to cover their escape. Ash, Lillie and their Pokemon pursue. The mecha reaches a ravine, but manages to jump across. Pikachu and Absol jump onto Ash's shoulder as he sprints, jumping the ravine. He falls short, but manages to grab ahold of the opposite cliff face, climbing to the top. Team Rocket grabs Ash, Absol and Pikachu with the mecha as the others catch up, heading to a nearby bridge.

While Team Rocket plans to throw Ash, Absol and Pikachu off the cliff, Ash realizes that Gabite, being part Ground type, will not be affected by Pikachu's Electric-type attacks. "Absol, jump down and I'll have Magnezone transport you to safety."

Absol nods and she does so, Team Rocket is frustrated that Absol is saved, but Pikachu fires Thunderbolt and it works since the mecha is not able to block electricity, freeing Ash and Pikachu. Pikachu then frees Gible with an Iron Tail. Meowth tries to activate another mecha ability, but the electric attack terminally damaged the mecha, causing it to disintegrate and blasting them off for good.

Gabite starts to nibble on Ash's head to show affection, and Ash asks, "So Gabite, are you going to join us?"

Gabite agrees as Ash tosses a Poké Ball, and this time it pulls Gabite in, rocking a few times before securing the catch on his newest Pokémon.

Sinnoh Dex Entry No.57 Gible: The Land Shark Pokemon: Dragon and Ground Type. It attacks using its huge mouth. While its attacks are powerful, it hurts itself out of clumsiness, too.

Sinnoh Dex Entry No.58 Gabite: The Cave Pokemon: Dragon and Ground Type. Evolved from Gible at LV:24. It loves sparkly things. It seeks treasures in caves and hoards the loot into its nest.

Just then, Barry catches up to them and he yells that he wanted to catch the Pokemon. Gabite bites Barry's head as Dawn explains that Ash originally planned to catch it. Barry then wants to battle Gabite with Empoleon to feel better.

Gabite uses Draco Meteor and success, before being knocked out, Empoleon uses Steel Wing to hit one back to Piplup. "Why is it only me..." Piplup mutters before fainted. After the battle, Barry then leaves to battle Fantina, he also bids farewell to others.
