Morning rises as Ash and all of his friends wake up to a brand new day. Clemont was making breakfast, Ash was doing some morning training with his pokemon, Bonnie was playing with the Paw Patrol and Serena and Katie were chatting. Katie told Serena everything that has happened since they found Braixen; how they started their bonding mission, the surprise party, Braixen's first furcut, the big rescue mission, everything. Serena was astounded to hear all that as Braixen was telling her friends the same thing. All the pokemon were either surprised or jaw dropped to hear it. After breakfast was finished, everyone hopped on the balloon and flew to Adventure Bay. Soon, they arrived and landed it at the Lookout. Ash, his friends and all their pokemon were amazed at what they saw. Katie led them on a tour of the bay, showing them the town, the pet parlor, everything, with it ending at the lookout. She explained what the Paw Patrol was and how each thing worked. Clemont was impressed on the technology used. Ash loved the fact that the pups could drive their houses. Bonnie liked the elevator and slide. Serena was mightily impressed on how everyone helps out around Adventure Bay. Then, Katie remembered about what she wanted to with Braixen. So, she asked Serena to let her out. When Braixen was out, they both stood next to each other and said,"strong bond". The necklaces glowed and the bonding angel came out. She said,"Hello. So, did you decided on your wish?" Katie smiled and said "We want to bring back a dear friend of us. A young boy named Ryder." Everyone agreed and the angel smiled and started to glow really brightly. She looked like a star as she rose into the sky. Then, some golden dust started to circle around an empty space and with a poof, Ryder was awake, alive and walking. He saw the Paw Patrol and a bunch of new friends standing in front of him. The pups ran over and tackled him, barking in sheer joy. Ryder was happy to be with the pups again. He looked at Katie and thanked her for caring for them. All Katie could do was muster up a smile, but ended up blushing hard. Her face was as red as Marshall's firetruck. Marshall thrn remarked,"Someone has a crush on someone." Katie quickly responded," I don't Marshall. Its just ... a bit hot out here. That's all." Marshall smiled as he ran back to Ryder and Katie let out a breath of relief. She turned and said,"You see what I mean, Serena?"All Serena could do was laugh since it looked like how she was around Ash. Katie then introduced Ash and all his friends and pokemon to Ryder, also introducing Braixen who stayed with them while was here in Adventure Bay. Then, Katie had a great idea. She then faces Ash and says,"Ash Ketchum, I challenge you to a 2 on 2 pokemon battle. I'll be using Rocky, to help demonstrate Clemont how the pokemon collars work and, with permission, I'll use Braixen. Everyone was surprised to hear that. Rocky was in the collar and ready to go. Katie kneals down and asks Braixen,"would you like to battle with me?" Braixen looked at Serena, who gave her a nod, and then held her fist out, meaning yes. Katie returned the fist bump and then setted her choices up, ready to battle. Chase was the referee and said,"The battle between Katie and Ash will now begin. Each trainer will have the use of two pokemon. The battle will end when the pokemons on either side are unable to continue. Furthermore, only the challenger, Katie, will be allowed substitutions." Ash calls out his Pikachu, who was raring and ready. Katie calls Rocky, who was tearing the ground and crouching, meaning he was ready. Chase then calls out,"Alright then, battle begin." Ash has Pikachu use quick attack, but Rocky leaps up to dodge. Katie has Rocky use mud shot and it was a super effective hit since electric types are weak against ground types. Pikachu then uses iron tail, but is met with a fire fang instead, with another super effective move since fire types are stronger than steel types. Rocky then uses his quick attack and hits Pikachu hard. Rocky is then told to use stonge edge and Pikachu gets hit and faints. Chase calls out,"Pikachu is unable to battle. Rocky is the winner." All the pups cheer since Rocky won the first battle. Clemont was impressed on how well Rocky did as well as Bonnie. Although Serena was worried for Ash, she knew that her new friend Katie did a good job too. Ash picks up his Pikachu and lays it next to it, telling him to rest well. Ash then calls out his second and last pokemon, Hawlucha. Rocky told Katie that he wanted to go on, so she let him. Chase lets the new battle begin as Katie calls Rocky to use aerial ace, which would be super effective against Hawlucha, a fighting type. But, Rocky misses and gets hit with a karate chop. Dazed, he shakes it off and tries air slash, but is dazed again with X scissor. Ash tells Hawlucha to use high jump kick and when it landed on Rocky, he fainted. Chase calls," Rocky is unable to battle. Hawlucha is the winner." The pups were worried, hoping to see who would win this fascinating battle. Ash then says,"The pokemon collars you made are amazing. A pup that could use aerial ace is amazing." Katie smiled and responded with,"You're a great trainer Ash, but this win will be mine. Time for the bond between pokemon and friend to come alive. Braixen, I choose you." Braixen hops o to the battlefield with her stick at hand. Chase calls for the final battle to begin as everyone keeps cheering. Everyone was anticipating on who would win. Would it be Ash Ketchum or would it be Katie? All the pokemon that were out watching were cheering too. Pancham and Sylveon were hoping that Braixen wind as Serena was too. Ash has Hawlucha use karate chop, but when he got close, Braixen jumped high and dodged with perfect ease. Katie calls Braixen to use aerial ace and she hit Hawlucha hard as if she was fighting the bear again. Shaking off the super effective move, Hawlucha uses X scissor and it hits Braixen, but it doesn't do much damage since bug types are weak against fire types. Everyone was cheering and chanting the name of whoever they wanted to win. Hawlucha then uses high jump kick, but is blown back with thunderbolt, which is also super effective sunce flying types are weak against electric types. Hawlucha stayed strong though and hit Braixen with back to back karate chops. As Braixen laid on the field, Hawlucha was about to finish it with flying press, however, with quick thinking, Katie has Braixen use fire blast and it rocketed Hawlucha into the sky, losing the move. Katie then has Braixen use aerial ace in mid air and it hit. The battle finished when Braixen launches a thunderbolt and Hawlucha faints. Everyone was shocked as Chase calls out,"Hawlucha is unable to battle, Braixen is the winner. The match goes to Katie." Katies cheers as Braixen ran and hugged Katie. Ryder and all the pups cheered and Clemont, Bonnie and Serena were impressed with the battle. Although Ash didn't win, he was still magnificent. The rest if the day, everyone played and had fun. The pups also saw Serena perform a little performance just for them and it was amazing. They loved and were impress with Braixen's ability to dance. As the sun started to soon set, it was time for Ash and everyone to go. They packed the balloon and started to say their goodbyes. Ash thanked Katie for the wonderful battle they had. Clemont and Bonnie said bye to the pups and thanked them for saving them from Team Rocket's grasp. Serena thanked Katie for finding and caring for Braixen. They hugged and then it was Katie's turn to say bye to Braixen. She knealed and said,"Braixen, you were a great friend and a loyal companion. Whenever I needed help, you were there. Then, I returned the favor when you needed help. We laughed, cried and had many fun adventures together." Katie started to release a few tears since saying goodbye was a bit hard. Braixen was starting to cry too. They hugged and cried a bit since they didn't want to say bye to each other. Katie continued while crying," No matter what, never, ever forget me. I'll never, ever forget you. We may not be physically together, but we can remember each other by our necklaces. I also promise to continue your role as the search and rescue member of Paw Patrol." They both continued to cry as Braixen was chirping that she didn't want to leave either. They soon stopped and although a few tears were still flowing, they felt a little better. Katie smiled and said,"One day, I'll go on a pokemon journey. When I do, I want you and your trainer Serena to travel with me. That is a promise." Braixen looked at Katie and had the biggest smile on her face ever. They hugged one more time before they stopped. Braixen untied the red ribbon on her stick and tied it onto Katie's headband. She smiled before walking to Serena and the others. As the balloon started to go up, all the pups, Ryder and Katie yelled goodbyes and take cares and see you soons as well as Ash and everyone else too. Soon, the balloon was gone and so was their friend. Katie started to tear up again because she missed Braixen. Rocky was by her side, with a comforting smile on his face. She thanked him and then went inside the lookout, looking back at the sky with hopes that one day, she'll see her again.
