Synopsis
Template:Incomplete synopsis With Ash's sixth Gym Badge won, the gang prepare to head to Chocovine Town for Dawn's next Contest. However, the boats are unable to leave because the harbor is blocked by a school of Wailord. They have a picnic to wait out the blockade when a Luxio appears and begins to steal food from the group. Piplup and Pikachu attempt to stop the Luxio, but a Whismur and Nidoran help Luxio and manage to steal the food. Ash chases them into the sewer to find many Pokémon living in a chamber in the sewers, and that Luxio is their leader. Dawn and Brock try and follow him, but a short battle with Team Rocket leaves the manhole cover sealed shut. Brock's Happiny tries to pull it off, but to no avail. Dawn then sends out her Mamoswine and bribes it with Poffins to open the manhole cover. He charges Dawn and stomps on the ground, opening the manhole cover and sending Dawn and her Poffins into the air. Mamoswine eats the Poffins as they fall; Happiny catches Dawn. Down in the sewers, Piplup leads the gang around the sewers to find Ash, although they often just miss each other.
Ash keeps following Luxio until he sees a Wailmer stranded on a walkway in the sewers, too tired to move. He sends out Buizel to hydrate Walimer, and help it get into the water. He figures out that the Wailord are probably worried about him, and decide to help him out. They head up the sewers toward the ocean, though they run into a drop on the way there. With a rope and the help of the other Pokémon, they are able to pull Waimer over the first drop, but then are blocked by another huge drop. Ash enlists the help of all the Pokémon in the sewer, making an ice ramp up the drop and pushing Waimer up on a sled. The plan works until the ramp crumbles half-way, and the Waimer is struggling air-born. A Venonat asks Luxio to hit him up, which knocks Wailmer the rest of the way up the drop.
Dawn and Brock finally catch up with Ash, but when they are in sight of the exit, an angry Swampert comes after them, protecting its territory. Ash tries to reason with it, but it attacks instead. He is about to have Pikachu attack, but Brock points out that electric attacks won't affect it, as it is part ground type. Ash calls out Grotle instead, attacking with razor leaf and sneaking by while Swampert is knocked out. Waimer finally gets out of the sewers, but evolves right before he gets past a bridge.
