Summary
Ash and his friends continue their journey to Nimbasa City to get his fourth badge. In preparation for the upcoming challenge, Ash and Iris begin training with a Pokémon Battle. Ash demands for Iris to attack from anywhere. Axew stumbles forward towards Ash’s Scraggy, in preparation to strike him with Scratch. With Axew’s weak movements, Scraggy dodges the attack with little effort. Scraggy responds with Headbutt, striking Axew for a direct hit. Axew begins to whine, holding his forehead in pain. Iris shouts for Axew to retaliate with Dragon Rage. Axew recovers, and begins gathering a massive amount of energy inside of his body. After a few moments, Axew opens his mouth to launch the attack, however is unable to release the energy, forcing the energy to build pressure inside of Axew. With Axew unable to release the energy, it begins to react and soon explodes, creating a giant plume of debris around Axew. Cilan states that Axew’s “Dragon Sneeze” has a truly powerful and bitter taste (making a joke in reference to Axew’s failed Dragon Rage attack). Iris shouts out, stating that it the attack isn’t “Sneeze”, however is Dragon Rage. Ash suggests that Axew is doing his best, however is just unable to launch the attack. Iris states that it cannot be helped because it takes a long time to raise Dragon types. Iris reaches down to grasp Axew, suggesting that the training is enough for the day. Iris thanks Axew for his hard work, concluding that he will be able to use the attack someday. Ash extends his arm, recalling Scraggy into his Monster Ball.

After a few moments, a group of nearby bushes begins to rustle. As Iris, Ash, and Cilan turn to examine the source of the disturbance, a massive Flamethrower erupts through the foliage. A massive Druddigon reveals himself, rampaging in anger. Ash queries his Zukan for Druddigon’s data: “Druddigon, the Cave Pokémon. It warms its body by absorbing sunlight with its wings. The skin on its face is harder than a rock.” Iris states that Druddigon is a Dragon type, which is powerful, cool, and the greatest. Druddigon begins to extend his claws, in an attempt to gather energy in preparation to launch Focus Blast. Pikachu begins generating electric energy, which is diverted to his tail to create Electro Ball. The two Pokémon launch their devasting attacks, which collide and dissipate afterwards. Ash shouts out for Pikachu to give the battle his all. A young female interrupts the battle and rushes up to Druddigon, stating she had been looking everywhere for him. Druddigon ignores the girl, pushing her to the side and racing off into the forest in a fit of rage, followed by the young female. As Druddigon manages to escape into the foliage, Iris manages to notice a material which is wrapped around Druddigon’s leg. Iris races after the Druddigon and soon arrives to a massive network of caves. Iris and Cilan manage to arrive at Iris’s location a few moments afterwards. The young woman shouts out, questioning where her Druddigon has disappeared to. Iris commands for Axew to call for Druddigon. Axew obliges, hopping down from Iris and begins climbing the cave structure. Axew successfully reaches the top of the cave structure, and enters the topmost cave; however after a few moments, Axew rushes out in a state of fear. Druddigon reveals himself, roaring out in rage. Axew dashes down and returns to the safety of Iris’s hair. Druddigon slams to the ground, confronting our heroes in a state of rage. Cilan warns Iris that Druddigon is agitated and dangerous. Iris ignores the warning, and reaches down, removing the rope around Druddigon’s leg. Iris suggests that the rope got tangled around Druddigon’s leg and it rampaged because of the pain. The young trainer ponders when Druddigon could have gotten tangled up in the rope and concludes that it must have been while she was picking Berryb Berries. After a few moments, the trainer apologizes and introduces herself as Amy. Iris, Ash, and Cilan introduce themselves to the young trainer. Amy compliments Iris, stating that it is impressive she was able to determine where Druddigon had been hiding. Iris responds that Druddigon are unable to move when their body temperature falls, and her Druddigon had to be located on the topmost cave where sunlight was streaming inside. Ash suggests that Iris has a lot of knowledge about Druddigon. Iris responds that she had previously grown up in a Dragon Village which contributed towards her knowledge of Dragon types.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket examines the group from a distance. James states that it is a shame that they had failed to capture Druddigon (confirming that Team Rocket was the source of the rope), however the strength it used to tear through their special wire was truly amazing. Jessie suggests that it was the right decision to continue observing Druddigon after their failed attempt, because after all, it led them to Ash. Meowth examines Axew and Pikachu’s data on a monitor, shouting that they will successfully capture Axew, which is another Dragon type in addition to capturing their favorite Pikachu. Ash continues to question Iris about her hometown, stating that it was a leisurely place where many Dragon type Pokémon lived. Iris confirms his suggestion, responding that everyone got along very well with Pokémon and the coolest of all the citizens were the Dragon Masters. Ash questions Iris about the role of a Dragon Master. Cilan states that he has previously heard of them and that they have the ability to attune their hearts to Dragon types and raise their power to the maximum. Iris shouts that it is her dream to become a Dragon Master. Amy concludes that it is the reason why Iris is knowledgeable about Dragon types. Amy questions Iris if she would teach her about Druddigon, as she has only just debuted as a Trainer. Iris questions Amy If she is a beginner. Ash responds that he is correct, and her father had traded Druddigon to her; but since it is the first time that she is raising a Dragon type, she thought they would start traveling once he got used to her a little more. Iris shouts that she will do anything to assist her with Druddigon. Iris suggests that Amy should have a battle in order to adapt to Druddigon. Amy questions Iris about her suggestion of a battle. Iris inquires if Amy has ever had a battle. Amy responds that she has never had a battle, not even with Druddigon. Cilan states it is the ideal way for her to understand Druddigon.

Ash and Amy prepare for battle in a nearby opening, selecting Tepig and Druddigon as their respective Pokémon. Tepig dashes forward and strikes Druddigon with Tackle, thrusting him backwards. Iris assists Amy with her technique, stating that she needs to work towards stopping Tepig’s movements. Druddigon retaliates with Focus Blast; however Tepig manages to successfully dodge the attack. Tepig begins stomping, generating fire energy around its body in preparation for Flame Charge. Iris continues to aid Amy, informing her that Druddigon can endure Tepig’s attack. Druddigon crosses his arms and manages to successfully block Tepig’s attack. Tepig is thrusted backwards by Druddigon and slams into the ground. Druddigon gathers energy into his claws, and begins thrusting forward, launching Dragon Claw towards Tepig. Tepig responds, launching Ember which causes Druddigon to flinch. Amy shouts out for Druddigon to force through and continue using Dragon Claw. Druddigon utilizes his Dragon Claw attack to successfully block Tepig’s ember, striking forward and hitting Tepig for a direct hit. Tepig is thrusted backwards and is knocked unconscious, unable to battle. The victory is awarded to Druddigon. Amy thanks Iris for her advice during the battle. Iris states that it is quite difficult to be in sync with a Dragon type; and that it is important that they trust each other. Ash recalls Tepig into his Monster Ball. Cilan questions Amy about Druddigon’s attacks, inquiring if he can perform Flamethrower, Focus Blast, and Dragon Claw. Iris questions if there are any other attacks that Druddigon can perform. Amy responds that Druddigon only has those three attacks that Cilan had mentioned. Iris and Ash suggest that if Druddigon were to learn another move, Amy’s options in battle would become broader. After a few moments, James’s Yamask successfully launches Shadow Ball, which collides with Druddigon. Cilan questions why a Yamask would use Shadow Ball without warning (unaware that Yamask is actually owned by James). Yamask launches another Shadow Battle attack; however Druddigon successfully dodges the attack, which collides with a nearby mountain. Druddigon begins gathering fire energy in his mouth, in preparation for Flamethrower. Jessie’s Woobat interrupts, launching Gust, with dispels Druddigon’s flamethrower and thrusts Pikachu and Axew away from their trainers. Team Rocket successfully launches their “special” wire, which manages to ensnare Druddigon, Pikachu, and Axew.

The three Pokémon struggle, however are unable to break the wire. Druddigon launches Dragon Claw, which successfully breaks the grasp on Pikachu. The mecha continues to repel Axew and Druddigon, suspending them into the air. A massive door opens and Axew and Druddigon are thrusted inside of a compartment within Team Rocket’s mecha. Team Rocket reveals themselves to the group, entering into their renowned motto. Amy questions who Team Rocket is. Ash responds that they are a group who suddenly appear and forcibly steal others’ Pokémon. James states that Ash is incorrect suggesting that they appear “suddenly”. James continues that they had carefully planned their strategy on how to obtain Druddigon. Meowth states that they expanded their strategy to capture Axew as well. Jessie contributes that they hadn’t predicted Pikachu’s escape; however Giovanni will be overjoyed with the capture of Druddigon and Axew. Iris shouts out, yelling that she will not hand over Axew so easily. Iris dashes towards a nearby hill and begins climbing upwards, thrusting herself towards the airborne mecha. Iris launches herself into the air, however is unable to grasp the mecha, and falls back towards the ground. James and Jessie state that they will raise Axew and evolve it; allowing them to take complete control of the Unova region. Woobat launches an intensive Gust, which is followed up by Yamask’s Shadow Ball; allowing Team Rocket to escape during the chaos. James suggests that they should land at a nearby table mountain which is nearby. Meowth states that once they have landed, they will inform Giovanni of their results. A loud thud is heard, interrupting the conversation. Druddigon begins to rampage, using its Dragon Claw in an attempt to break through the mecha’s interior wall. Jessie questions James if the mecha will be fine from the attacks. James suggests that her question is foolish, because the mecha is perfect. On the ground, our heroes keep sight of the mecha and follow on foot. Amy shouts that Druddigon is precious to her. Iris ponders that Axew is also precious to her, forcing her to recall her past moments in the Dragon Village.

Flashback: On Iris’s departure from the Dragon Village, she is lectured by a Dragon Master, Matriarch, who states that together with her Axew, she will meet many Trainers and Pokémon. The Dragon Master states that the meetings will become food for her growth. Matriarch suggests that there are various happenings which are awaiting Iris ahead; which include happiness, sadness, and pain. Matriarch states that once Iris and Axew overcome their events, the road to becoming a Dragon Master will open. Iris responds that she understands, and she will do her best.

After recalling her past events, Iris increases her running speed in thought of overcoming Team Rocket while aiming to become a Dragon Master. Team Rocket continues to approach their destination, as Druddigon continuously strikes the mecha’s interior wall; but soon fatigues from its efforts. Axew recalls its prior failed attempts with Dragon Rage which created an explosion. Axew utilizes the situation to his advantage, and begins gathering energy inside of his body in preparation to launch Dragon Rage. Similar to before, Axew fails to release the energy, which forces it to build pressure and eventually counteracts, exploding within the mecha. Akew’s failed attempt manages to successfully damage the mecha, which forces Team Rocket to crash into a nearby mountainous region. Meowth states that he had thought that Axew wasn’t able to use Dragon Rage. James suggests that Axew is perfect for their Pokémon forces. Druddigon continues to rage, using its Dragon Claw attack to force the mecha doors open. Ash begins to head towards the crash site, however Iris shouts for him to stop. Iris climbs a nearby tree and begins focusing her energy in an attempt to locate Axew and Druddigon. As Druddigon and Axew attempt to make their escape, Yamask and Woobat manage to successfully intercept the two dragons, forcing them to take another path. Amy shouts out to Iris, questioning what she is doing. Iris points, suggesting that she has located Axew and Druddigon. Cilan shouts for Iris to stop, stating that there is a nearby shortcut to the crash site. Ash states that Iris sensed Axew and Iris, and he trusts her instinct. Druddigon and Axew continue their escape, however Druddigon reaches the end of a ledge, and the two dragons slide down the cliff’s side; slamming to the ground.

Team Rocket successfully intercepts the two runaway Pokémon, shouting that they cannot escape from Team Rocket. Druddigon responds with Focus Blast, however Team Rocket dodges the attack with minor effort. Jessie states that she likes Druddigon’s tough, impudent, and strong side more and more. Yamask responds with Shadow Ball; however Druddigon shields the attack by crossing its arms, dispelling the attack. Woobat contributes with Gust, with thrusts Axew from Druddigon’s side. Meowth suggests that the two Pokémon should have the grace to join Team Rocket and become their vanguard for the takeover of the Unova region. Iris interrupts the conversation, shouting that she will not let it happen. Yamask gathers Shadow Energy forming a sphere in preparation to launch Shadow Ball; however Pikachu retaliates with Thunderbolt which strikes Yamask and Woobat for a direct hit. Axew and Druddigon utilize the opportunity to safely return to their trainers. Yamask launches Night Shade, which envelopes Druddigon and Amy in ghost energy. After a few moments, the attack thrusts Druddigon and Amy into the ground. Druddigon successfully returns to its feet, and begins gathering energy within its body. Amy and Team Rocket stare in a confused state, unaware of the strange attack. Iris shouts that Druddigon has learned Draco Meteor. Iris states that a Pokémon will charge their entire body with power and then release it towards the sky. Druddigon continues to gather energy within its body, and soon thrusts the energy into the air, which explodes, launching a group of artificial “meteors” towards the ground. The energy scatters and begins slamming into the terrain. Yamask attempts to escape, however is struck by the energy, knocking it unconscious. James suggests that it is amazing it has learned Draco Meteor. Jessie responds that they will definitely get it. Woobat begins flapping its wings, and generates a strong Gust. Pikachu retaliates, launching Electro Ball which collides with Woobat for a direct hit. Axew begins gathering energy within his body, in preparation for Dragon Rage. After a few moments, Axew opens his mouth and is able to successfully release the energy. Axew’s energy takes the form of a Dragon, which strikes forwarding colliding with Team Rocket. The debris from Axew’s attack settles, and Team Rocket is nowhere to be found. Looking upward, Team Rocket takes to the sky, jetting forward with their jet packs. Jessie suggests that while their strategy failed, they will achieve their ambitions for sure. Meowth states that for Giovanni’s sake, they will take complete control over the Unova region. Iris begins hugging Axew, excited that Axew has finally mastered Dragon Rage. Cilan suggests that after a long ripening process, Axew has produced a powerful and soulful taste which was an excellent Dragon Rage. Ash responds that Druddigon’s Draco Meteor was amazing as well. Amy announces that she has finally decided to begin a journey together with Druddigon. Iris shouts that she also has to do her best in order to become a Dragon Master. Ash states that someday he will become a Pokémon Master for sure.

Amy’s Druddigon has learned Dragon Meteor, while Iris’ Axew has finally mastered Dragon Rage. Iris’, as well as Ash’s and Dent’s, journey continues.

Hoewel Druddigon dreigend overkomt, is Iris absoluut niet bang en ze herinnert iedereen aan het feit dat zij is opgegroeid in een dorp waar mensen en Draaksoort Pokémon goed met elkaar op kunnen schieten. Als ze duidelijk maakt dat ze een Drakenmeester wil worden, vraagt Emmy haar om haar meer te leren over Draaksoorten, aangezien Emmy een kersverse Trainer is. Iris stelt haar voor om met Druddigon te vechten en Ash biedt aan om tegen hem te vechten. Ondertussen heeft Team Rocket het oog laten vallen op het vangen van Druddigon en Axew, en niet te vergeten, Pikachu. Met hulp van Woobat en Yamask lijkt het erop dat de drie Pokémon van onze helden zijn gevangen, maar Pikachu ontsnapt. Onze helden zweren dat ze hun Pokémon terug zullen krijgen en samen met Emmy vechten ze verwoed terug. Plotseling kan Druddigon Drace Meteoor gebruiken, en Axew heeft eindelijk geleerd hoe hij Drakenfurie moet gebruiken. Team Rocket beseft dat het voor nu verloren heeft en verdwijnt en Emmy besluit dat ze klaar is om op reis te gaan met Druddigon! Onze helden nemen afscheid van Emmy en Druddigon, en Ash en Iris beloven dat ze hun droom waar zullen maken om respectievelijk Pokémon Meester en Drakenmeester te worden!

Norwegian Official Summary

Når de trener litt på vei mot Nimbasa City gymmen, blir heltene våre overrasket av det som viser seg å være en veldig hissig Druddigon. De møter snart dens trener, Emmy, som har vært på leting etter sin Drage-type Pokémon. Selv om den virker truende er ikke Iris det smule redd for Druddigon, og minnet de andre på at hun vokste opp i en by hvor mennesker og Drage-type Pokémon går veldig godt overens. Når hun tilkjennegir at hun ønsker å bli en Dragemester, blir Iris spurt av Enmy om hun kan lære henne om Drage-typer, siden Emmy er en helt fersk trener. Iris foreslår at Emmy kjemper med Druddigon og Ash tilbyr seg å ta en kamp mot henne. Imens har Team Rocket satt seg som mål å fange Druddigon og Axew, for ikke å glemme, som alltid, Pikachu. De bruker Woobat og Yamask, og det virker som om alle tre av våre heleters Pokémon har blitt fanget, men Pikachu slipper unna.

Selvom den er skræmmende, er Iris slet ikke bange for Druddigon og minder alle om, at hun er vokset op i en by, hvor mennesker og Dragon-type Pokémon lever i harmoni med hinanden.

A good episode with some nice character development (some background story for Iris and Kibago, and the latter finally managing to use Dragon Sne... I mean Dragon Rage). At least, the writers aren't repeating the same mistakes they've done in the previous seasons, where some characters didn't really get any proper chara. development.

Too bad Takeshi's not travelling with Satoshi anymore... No doubt he would have been charmed by Amy (yeah, I know he falls for pretty much every single female character he encounters, but still).

And hurrah for the Rocket Gang, though I wish they'd go back to some 'serious business' for a bit. I mean, they could do with some character development too.
