Ash's Dracovish (Japanese: サトシのウオノラゴンSatoshi's Uonoragon) was the fifth Pokémon that Ashcaught in Pokémon Journeys: The Series, the second one he caught in the Galarregion, and his fifty-seventh overall.
Dracovish first appeared when Cara Liss and Gasattsu restored it and an Arctozolt from Fossils they had discovered in the Wild Area. Ash attempted to greet it, but it responded by attempting to bite him and then proceeded to chase him and Pikachu. As it chased Ash, he commanded Pikachu to use Electroweb to stop it, but Dracovish tore through it and accidentally attacked Arctozolt, which got angered and created a field of ice using Icy Wind, that both Ash and Dracovish slipped on, resulting in Ash winding up on top of the Fossil Pokémon as it ran away. It ran a long way to a pond, where Ash realized it had just wanted a swim. After they had returned to their starting point, Cara Liss and Gasattsu let Ash and Goh keep the Fossil Pokémon, since they had already gotten the data they wanted about them. As such, Ash caught Dracovish, while Goh caught Arctozolt.
Dracovish has a habit of nibbling on people's heads, especially Ash. Dracovish even likes playing in places where there is a lot of water to swim in and enjoys spending time with other Water Pokémon, as shown by it hanging out with Goh's Water Pokémon at the Cerise Laboratory.
At 50 episodes, Dracovish's capture marks the longest gap between the beginning of a new series and Ash capturing a Pokémon introduced during the concurrent generation.
