But after a brush with a flock of angry Spearow, Ash's selfless act proved to Pikachu the lengths the young boy would go to protect him, and in turn saved Ash as a result. Ever since that day, Pikachu had opened his heart to his Trainer which led to the two becoming close friends.

There, Ash met Dragonair who struggled to fly like her fellow Dragonite friends, and decided to help her out until she was able to fly. After an encounter with Team Rocket, a Wailord attack put Ash in danger. Due to her desire to save Ash, Dragonair evolved into Dragonite and rescued the young Trainer.

It disappeared after being warded off by Prof. Cerise's Yamper, but made its return some time later making its second attempt to scare the lab's residents yet again. Ash, who had thought to have been cursed, at one point ran off from the lab with Gengar (who had been hiding in his shadow the entire time) to compose himself. But after bumping into Gengar's original Trainer, Ash learned that the Gengar in the lab was in fact abandoned by said Trainer.

Hearing its call, Ash followed it until he found the Egg in the Pokemon Center where he learned that the Egg had come from the Sinnoh region and had been sent from Day Care to Day Care until it came into the hands of Vermillion City's Nurse Joy. Seeing that the Egg reacted to Ash's presence, Nurse Joy decided to put the Egg in Ash's care. Eventually, the Egg hatched and a Riolu came out of it. Initially Riolu was perplexed, as it was unable to detect the same Aura it was able to sense from before and ran away from Ash. But after being attacked by an angry Onix, both Ash and Pikachu confronted the rock-type in order to protect Riolu. It's there Riolu finally sensed that Ash was the source of the strong Aura it detected when it was an Egg, and after battling alongside Ash, Riolu expressed to join Ash in becoming stronger and soon became a formidable member of Ash's team. Eventually it evolved into Lucario after its desire to push further into becoming stronger than before.

After a fairly intense battle between Farfetch'd and Ash's Riolu, it ended with Farfetch'd loss and Ash took it to the Pokemon Center afterwards. Once it recovered, Ash offered Farfetch'd to join him after he saw the Pokemon's pursuit in becoming stronger, to which it quietly accepted, becoming another reliable and powerful partner in Ash's team.
