Synopsis

During their stay in Undella Town, Ash and friends spot a young boy named Chris frantically searching for his Pokemon Cubchoo. Concerned, the gang offer to help. Cilan takes out his detective equipment and begins an investigation of Cubchoo's Pokémon House. He ponders if it's possible that Cubchoo was kidnapped. Chris tells him it's impossible since there's security cameras and burglar alarms along the walls of the outside perimeter.

The gang spot a hole dug under the wall that's big enough for a small Pokémon to go through. Both Pikachu and Dawn's Piplup are able to crawl under the wall and onto the other side of the wall which led to the forest. Cilan comes up with several scenarios as the Pokémon notice a trail of food remains leading into the forest. They alert their Trainers and the humans follow the trail. At the end of the trail is a sleeping Beartic with food remains scattered around it.

After Ash scans it with his Pokédex, Cilan concurs that Cubchoo must have evolved and tells Chris to call back his Pokémon. Chris attempts to do so but it doesn't work indicating that the Beartic isn't his. Soon Chris's Cubchoo and a wild Larvitar were seen running out of a nearby bush and chasing each other playfully. Chris is reunited with Cubchoo and Cilan explains that Larvitar must have let Cubchoo out of the Pokémon House. Iris and Ash ask if Chris ever had a Pokémon Battle before and he replies that he hasn't.

Iris explains that battles are how Pokémon grow. Ash challenges Larvitar to a battle with Scraggy and Larvitar accepts. Scraggy runs towards Cubchoo with a menacing look as Ash points out Larvitar's his opponent. Chris and Cubchoo watch as Ash starts the battle. Scraggy uses Headbutt and Larvitar attacks back with Bite. Cubchoo cheers for Larvitar as Iris praises good friendship. Ash orders Scraggy to push Larvitar off and use Hi Jump Kick. Scraggy misses as Larvitar retaliates with Sandstorm.

Ash orders a Focus Blast and Larvitar counters with an Energy Ball (?). They both get hit and are too tired to fight anymore which results in a draw. After the battle, Cubchoo punches the air with a competitive look on its face indicating it's rearing to go too. Chris smiles and tells it maybe later and that they should go home first. Larvitar and Cubchoo throw fake punches at each other in playful way as Ash and Chris talk about Chris starting a journey. After encouragement from everyone, Chris states that one day he'll go on a journey of his own with Cubchoo and Larvitar. The group bids farewell and thanks.
