Dawn's Ambipom
Ash's Aipom (Japanese: サトシのエイパム Satoshi's Eipam) is the only Pokémon to be captured by Ash Ketchum in Pokémon: Battle Frontier. She is voiced by 伊東みやこ Miyako Itō.
She was first seen in AG178 where she stole Ash's hat. She reappeared in AG179, stealing the hats of the participants before making off with Ash's hat again. In AG181, Ash finally captured her.
In AG182, Aipom became jealous of Ash's Pikachu's closeness to Ash. She also seems to have a certain penchant for headwear; aside from taking Ash's and other participants' hats, she wore a daisy chain on her head and put on a ceremonial crown she had trouble getting rid of.
Aipom, when out of her Pokéball, usually sits on Ash's left shoulder, as opposed to Pikachu sitting on his right shoulder. Presumably, she is out of her jealousy streak, but instead takes a leaf from Pikachu's book, and joins Ash usually sans Pokéball.
So far, Aipom's only major battle was against a Weavile that had been kicked out of its clan. However, the Weavile easily outmatched her and defeated her so badly she had to recover with a nearby Pokémon forest ranger.
In order to bring back Torkoal to battle Brandon's Registeel, Ash had to send Aipom over to Professor Oak; she had quite a bit of trouble adjusting to the new environment. However, after Ash's second defeat, Aipom returned.
When Ash left for Shinou, leaving all his Pokémon but Pikachu behind once more as he did when leaving for Hoenn, Aipom snuck aboard the boat he was travelling on to accompany him on his new journey.
