Blurb

As our heroes enter Terminus Cave, Squishy takes off! Before the others can catch up, Squishy sends a message to a similar-looking Pokémon. This alerts Team Flare, and they scatter to catch Squishy (which they call Z1) and its friend, Z2!

As Team Flare closes in, Squishy summons many Cells and merges with them to become a fierce four-legged Pokémon. It hits Team Flare with a devastating attack—and when that’s not enough, Ash sends out his Greninja, and the two of them appear to battle as one being!

Team Flare finally retreats, but Squishy is missing. Our heroes set off to find it...as Team Flare watches their every move!

Plot

Ash and his friends arrive outside Terminus Cave based on Sawyer's recommendation where Bonnie tells Squishy that they have arrived. Squishy pops up out of Bonnie's bag to look. As they head inside, Team Rocket are spying on them wondering why they are going inside but decide to go in to try and catch Pikachu as they head inside. Inside the cave, Serena says that she heard the mine was abandoned years ago but is now home to wild Pokémon which attracts a lot of trainers. Bonnie is excited to see a Ariados, Lairon and Shuckle as Ash notices that it is just like Sawyer said. Squishy jumps out of Bonnie's bag and goes down a passageway where Bonnie follows with Clemont followed by Ash, Serena and Pikachu. As Squishy hurries off, Bonnie calls at Squishy to wait and when Squishy does, Bonnie asks Squishy if it is looking for something as Serena calls out Braixen to light up the area using her flame which Braixen does. Clemont also decides to light things up and uses his Clemontic gear to increase the light level in the cave. As they crawl along a passageway, Squishy looks around nervously. Later they arrive in a cavern and after climbing down, Clemont asks if they could have taken an easier path. Continuing on their way, Serena notes that they have come far, Clemont becomes tired as Squishy heads to a gap in the floor before looking back at the group before going down the gap, Bonnie goes to follow but Clemont stops her saying it is dangerous as Bonnie tries to pull free. Looking down, Serena sees no way for them to get down there but Bonnie says they have to catch up as Ash brings out Noibat to use its ultrasonic wave to find an easier way of getting down as Clemont brings Luxray out to assist with its X-Ray vision. Noibat and Luxray find a passageway for them to take and they follow it.

Once they leave, Team Rocket appear with Gourgeist providing some light as Meowth wonders how far they will go, Jessie and James follow them. Squishy arrives at a cavern with water and looks around worried, unaware of a tracking device attached to a stalactite. Outside the cave in a van, two Team Flare Grunts have picked up movement from the tracker and discover that Squishy has returned. They contact Xerosic and let him know about Squishy as inside, Squishy reaches the water's edge and dives in and regains energy as Luxray having found Squishy leads the others along a different path. Squishy starts to contact Z2 through telepathy to see how it is and Z2 replies back unaware that the Team Flare Grunts have detected their conversations. Having picked up Z2's location, Xerosic goes to find it along with Mable and Aliana as Aliana notes how foolish it was to give away its location. Squishy tells Z2 that it is fine but Z2 must flee from its current location at once as Ash and the others arrive. Bonnie is relieved to have found Squishy and goes over to Squishy only for Squishy to disappear. Team Rocket are still spying on them as they wonder what is going on. Outside Bryony arrives and meets up with Celosia and after complaining about Bryony being late, they head inside after Squishy.

Back in the cavern, the group are calling out to Squishy with no result as Clemont and Ash check on Luxray and Noibat. Serena thinks that Squishy may not be here any more but Bonnie says Squishy is here and Ash agrees and walks further into the water and calls out to Squishy. Squishy watches from a stalactite as Ash and Bonnie are attacked by a Pin Missile as they are confronted by Team Flare and Drapion who orders them not to move. As Pikachu gets ready to battle, Drapion fires a Sludge Bomb which Celosia calls a warning with the next attack being a lost worse. Celosia and Bryony do a scout for Squishy and find it on the stalactite as Celosia fires a beam at Squishy who falls into the water having missed being hit. Celosia and Bryony continue to fire at Squishy as Team Rocket wonder what they are shooting at as Meowth guesses it is Squishy. Ash and the others can only watch on as a beam finally hits Squishy forcing it out of the water, having been subdued. As Bonnie goes to help Squishy, Ash pulls her out of the way of another Sludge Bomb. Clemont and Serena decide the time has come to battle as the Team Flare Grunts send out Houndour and Skorupi.

Trivia

File:Title Card XY Ash V2.png
The title card segment focuses on Ash for this episode
  • Poké TV: "Poké Love TV" focusing on Luxray and its X-ray vision.
    • The Poké TV segment was skipped for original airings.
  • Bonnie and Clemont narrate the preview for the next episode.
  • This is the first time since its debut that Noibat has used a new move.
  • When Team Rocket recited their motto, the usual background animation was not seen.
    • Also, Team Rocket uses a variation of their motto in this episode.
  • This is one of the few episodes in which Team Rocket refers Giovanni by his proper name and not as "the Boss".

Errors

  • When the Team Flare Grunt contacts Xerosic, the Team Flare logo on the back of Xerosic's coat briefly disappears.
  • In the dub, when Gourgeist peeked down into the passage that Ash and everyone else went through, Gourgeist's mouth moves but no sound comes out. The closed captions, however, do include the cry.
  • Celosia's Manectric used Scratch, a move that it cannot legally learn. This was changed in the dub to where Celosia merely commanded it to "Go after it" instead.
  • After Greninja reverts to its normal form, its chest is the same from Ash-Greninja form.
  • In the Danish dub, "Terminus-grotten" is misspelled as "Teminus-grotten" in the title card.
