Ash: Okay.
Ash went back into his tent to get his backpack to grab the Pokémon food to feed his and Dawn's Pokémon.
Ash calls out his Roggenrola, Tranquill, Snivy, Tepig, and Oshawott. He later grabs Dawn's Pokémon as well so they could all eat before heading out.
Ash: Alright everyone, here's some homemade food that Dawn cook from Brock's special recipe.
The Pokémon happily eat the food while Ash asks Cilan to watch over the Pokémon while he goes to find Dawn.
Just when Ash is about to leave, Dawn and the other girls come back with some berries.

Dawn: Really, well I just went to get some berries with Iris and Bianca.
Ash: I know I just wanted to make sure you were safe.

Ash grabs his Pokédex to scan Roggenrola's new evolve form.
