Pokemon Season 14 - Episode 697 – Purrloin: Sweet or Sneaky?

A Purrloin decides to aggravate a Tranquill by eating its food but soon, a flock of them causes her to run away with them giving chase. As Ash and the gang continue their journey, they encounter that Purrloin, and Meowth immediately falls for her. Immediately following, is the flock of Tranquill which immediately start using Gust on the group. Ash calls out Oshawott and asks it to use Water Gun and Pikachu to use Thunderbolt. After the flock disappears, Oshawott falls for Purrloin as well and he and Meowth soon have a fight on who should date her. Iris wants to catch the Purrloin and throws a Poké Ball to catch her when Meowth jumps in the way and gets pulled in instead. He pops out of the ball, and Oshawott and Meowth have another fight over Purrloin. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is planning their scheme in Nimbasa City. Purrloin returns to the gang, asking for help because a friend is in trouble. The gang decides to help but Cilan refuses, due to a past experience regarding Purrloin. The gang climbs up a mountain to help the Purrloin while a girl named Misha asks Cilan if he has seen a Purrloin she has a photo of, and he is surprised that it is the same Purrloin. Back on the mountain, Purrloin convinces Ash to give Meowth the backpack full of fruits because the pathway ahead becomes even narrower. When they climb down to where it pointed to, Purrloin steals Ash's backpack and takes off. When the structure collapses, she turns around and looks at the gang trapped in a cave. Cilan and Misha enter the cave to find everyone but Purrloin is in trouble. Misha tries to convince Purrloin that she did not abandon her but Purrloin keeps refusing to believe her story. Meowth and everyone else begins sinking in gravel. As Cilan and Misha try to pull everyone out, they fall in and begin sinking as well. When Purrloin finally realizes that Misha is telling the truth, she goes out to help. Meanwhile, Ash and the gang call out their Pokémon to help pull them out but, the rope holding them snaps. Just in time, a flock of Tranquill help them out. After everyone is out safely, Purrloin apologizes to everyone. Meowth and Oshawott then ask her on a date, only to find out that Purrloin is actually a male. The gang continues on their journey while Team Rocket places something on subway tracks.
