Synopsis

Template:Incomplete synopsis Ash, Dawn, and Brock arrive back in Twinleaf Town after their journey. While waiting for a ferry back to Kanto, the gang becomes depressed knowing they'll soon be going their separate ways. While everyone tries to keep their sadness at bay, it proves to be too much for Piplup, and he tries to run away.

The others give chase, with Pikachu riding on Staraptor to try to catch up with Piplup, but when Pikachu and Staraptor get in close range Piplup tries to attack and misses. It then runs up to Pikachu and starts crying, with Pikachu also crying. Dawn and the others have found them and Dawn hugs Piplup, calming him down.

Ash and Brock say their goodbyes and head off to Kanto, with Brock now having a goal of being a Pokémon doctor, and Ash with his ever-present goal of being a Pokémon master. Ash and Pikachu finally arrive home in Pallet Town...
