* Several in Chapter 34 during the fight against Sabrina:
** In order to make Ash finally use [[StrikeMeDownWithAllYourHatred his powers against her]] Sabrina proceeds [[IShallTauntYou to taunt him]] [[spoiler: by hinting at the truth of who his father is and the circumstances of his coneption.]] It nearly works, until the rest of Ash's Pokemon stop him and calm him down. Muk's tidbit was especially strong:
--> '''Muk''': Professor Oak always said something about [[MythologyGag 'You teach me, and I'll teach you']] when it comes to Trainers and their Pokemon. What you and the Professor teach us is obvious, but this is a moment we teach you something. Sometimes you need to not let rage control you. You tought that lesson to Infernape if I recall correctly, now you need to take that lesson to heart.

** The same scene also showed a vision of a possible [[spoiler: Bloodliner War]], in which Belladonna is among the many helping Ash and company. Clearly she did legit mean it when she said she wanted to help him.

* In Chapter 33, Misty and the others end up running into Belladonna and company [[spoiler: while searching for the kidnapped Ash]]. Despite their initial animosity, Belladonna ''immediately'' decides they will go along and help them find him. Her only reason? ''[[BigSisterInstinct Because she's his sister]]''.
** Furthermore, Aurora quickly goes to find herbs to prepare something to heal [[spoiler: Anabel]] without prompting. [[spoiler: Anabel]] mentions that they might not have been the good guys before, but they want to be now, and maybe encouraging that is the best they can do.




to:

* The developing friendship between Tracey and Minuetto. The former is going through an artist's block due to being rejected by a harsh judge in an interview, while the latter is dismissed as "garbage" for being a StreetUrchin, but they manage to help each other through their respective issues, and even get those who formerly dismissed them to eat their words about them.

** On the villains' side, criminals and terrorists as they are, it's rather touching to see that the Team Zenith admins, Taylor and Carly, have such UndyingLoyalty to their leader, as well as camaraderie with each other. Case in point, Carly tries to comfort Taylor [[spoiler: over Zevie's apparent death]] and manages to convince her to carry on with his will no matter what.

** When ending up in a Draconid camp, Sawyer meets up with a Draconid boy named Ryuga and an injured Bagon. While at first hostile to Sawyer for [[FantasticRacism being a Sootopolitan]] Ryuga mellows out a bit when the former helps treat the Bagn's injury.
** Ryuga returns the favor in the next chapter when he saves Sawyer from Team Zenith Admins and the two of them quickly work together to come up with a plan to fight back. Shows that for all the bad blood between the two sides, the chance for reconcilation isn't completely impossible.

Even if Ash isn't jumping on the sibling happy train, he's still inspiring his younger siblings to be the best they can be, and is willing to give them honest, heart to heart advice about Pokemon training.

Beyond the one he uses to battle, he can recognize several of them and knows their distinct characters. For a mon that usually is depicted as interchangeable, it's a nice showing that Ash cares for all his Pokemon, even the ones in multiples.
