Dreams by the Yard Full! is the 6th episode of Pokémon: Black & White, the fourteenth season of the Pokémon anime, and the 659th episode of the English dub overall (Japanese episode 664, Bulbapedia code BW006). It first aired in Japan on 21 October 2010 and in the United States on 12 March 2011. It falls within the season’s Striaton City & the Dreamyard stretch (EP5–EP7).
Synopsis
Oshawott’s newly learned Razor Shell beats Cilan’s Pansage to win Ash the Trio Badge, and the group then help the researcher Fennel stop Team Rocket at the Dreamyard. Oshawott blocks Solar Beam with its scalchop, recovers the shell with a ricocheting Water Gun and lands Razor Shell, and Pansage faints.
Team Rocket’s machine at the abandoned Dreamyard makes a pink mist appear that sends Axew to sleep and wakes a dormant Musharna. Fennel’s Munna eats Axew’s dream, showing it evolving into Fraxure and Haxorus, and Fennel explains that the mist comes from Musharna. At the Pokémon Center Ash learns that Unova’s Nurse Joys work with Audino.
Officer Jenny drives the group to the Dreamyard, where Team Rocket capture Musharna, but Pikachu’s Volt Tackle and Munna’s Psychic wreck their machine and the trio escape with their data. Fennel is reunited with Musharna, Cilan leaves the Gym to his brothers to travel with Ash, and Iris tags along as the three head for Nacrene City.
