Doctor Ash in the House

Today the gang stayed in a cabin for a few days before the Celestic Town contest. Dawn practiced some contest moves with her Pokemon, especially with her Drifloon. Fantina's Drifblim made her want to help Drifloon be great as that. Ash was having a conversation with his Honchkrow, Mismagius and Togekiss; he was going to use them in his gym battle against Fantina. Tomo was going to use his Poochyena, Houndour and Dusknoir. Before the boys were going to start to figure out how to beat Fantina's Pokemon, they saw Brock come out of the cabin. He was going into town to stock up on medicine because they were running out of it. So Ash, Tomo and Dawn were left in charge of the cabin and to do the chores Brock wanted them to do.
The first job was to give the Pokemon their showers. Ash was to give those who do like getting wet a shower with the shower hose, Tomo was to wipe down those who don't like getting wet with a damp flannel and Dawn was to dry them all off. Ash took great care with the water; he had the Pokemon check to see if it was too hot or too cold for them, before they rinsed them with water. The next job was to feed the Pokemon and Dawn cooked pancakes for everyone to their delight.
After washing up the plates and tidying up the kitchen, Dawn saw Ash and Tomo watch videos on a laptop.
"What are you watching?" She asked.
"We're looking at Fantina's battles online." Ash told her. "And I must say her battling style with ghost type Pokemon is different compared to Agatha, Morty and Phoebe's style."
He showed her videos of Agatha, Morty and Phoebe's past Pokemon battles.
"I see what you mean Ash." Dawn said, surprised by their battling styles. "And that battle Fantina had with Zoey and then you was really something."
"It's true." Ash said, recalling that battle. "And even though Honchkrow isn't affected by Hypnosis; Fantina's Pokemon will still be difficult to beat with her being a top coordinator with top contest battling styles and all. Her style reminded me of Juan, a gym leader back in Hoenn who was also a top coordinator. Tomo and I will need to find a way to counter Fantina's Pokemon's moves, especially when they use Hypnosis."
Dawn agreed with that.
Just then Pikachu, who released himself from his Poke Ball, came in shouting. 
"What's wrong Pikachu?" Ash asked. 
He ran outside and Ash, Tomo and Dawn followed. There lying on the ground was Dawn's Pachirisu looking very hot and panting like crazy.
"Pachirisu what's wrong with you?" Dawn asked, worried.
Ash ran over to Pachirisu and placed a hand on it's head. 
"A fever and I'm pretty sure I know the cause." He said. 
He carried Pachirisu back into the cabin and placed him on the sofa carefully then told Tomo to get a damp flannel.
"What's wrong with Pachirisu Ash?" Dawn asked. 
Before he could answer blue sparks came off Pachirisu.
"Thought so." He said. "This is a fever electric type Pokemon get when they store too much electricity. My Pikachu was afflicted with this before."
"What do we do?" Dawn asked.
"First don't worry Dawn." Ash said. "Like how you should not show any fear or panic when in a Pokemon contest or Pokemon battle, you should not show any fear or panic when treating your Pokemon when it's hurt or sick. The more worried the trainer is, the worse the Pokemon's condition gets."
Dawn was surprised by the lecture.
"You leave Pachirisu to me Dawn. Brock taught me what to do in situations like this." Dawn didn't know what to do herself, so she placed her trust in Ash.
"Okay first off we need a ice pack to place on Pachirisu's head." Ash said.
Dawn calmly created some ice with the help of Piplup and Buneary and gave it to Ash for him to place on Pachirisu's head.
"Okay next we need to get some Oran Berries. Tomo can you go outside and find some for me?"
"Right away." Tomo said.
He ran outside with his Growlithe and Staravia to find some Oran Berries.
"Okay while we wait for Tomo to come back we need to get rid of some of Pachirisu's spare electricity." Ash said. 
He had Pikachu, Luxio and Tomo's Pachirisu absorb Pachirisu's spare electricity. 
"You make this look so easy Ash." Dawn sighed. "You knew right away what to do with this situation, while I just got all panicky and didn't have a clue." 
"Dawn, you've only just started your Pokemon journey." Ash said. "You wouldn't know much about these things yet. I didn't know about Pokemon medicine when I started my journey and I only know all these things because of all that Brock taught me during all my travels with him. Remember your mom said she still had a lot to learn when she began her journey just like you do now. And the more journeys you go on the more and more things you'll learn."
Dawn remembered her mom telling her things like that before.
Just then Tomo, Growlithe and Staravia came back with some Oran Berries. 
"You found the berries alright?" Ash asked.
"Yes, thanks to the Berry Finder app on my Poketch." Tomo answered.
"Did you check to see if the Oran Berries were okay?" Ash asked.
"I did." Tomo answered. "The first batch of Oran Berries we found had a sour taste but the ones we have here don't."
"Excellent, now let's give Pachirisu some Oran Berries." Ash said.
Dawn cut up a few of the berries and mashed them into a paste; she explained to the boys her mother did this for her whenever she was sick. Pachirisu ate the berry paste which it liked and Ash changed the ice.
"Good, now Pachirisu just needs to rest and he'll be right as rain in no time." 
"Thank you Ash." Dawn said gratefully. "I don't know what I would have done if you weren't here."
"No problem, but you will need to learn more about Pokemon medicine." Ash told her.
Dawn agreed with that.
Just then Brock came back and he saw Ash, Tomo and Dawn attending to Pachirisu. They filled him in on Pachirisu's condition. Brock looked Pachirisu over.
"Well thanks to you three Pachirisu will be better in no time." Brock said. "You handled this situation well Ash, Tomo." 
"Well it was thanks to everything you taught me Brock." Ash said. 
"Hey Brock, will you teach me about Pokemon medicine?" Dawn asked. "I want to know what I need to do if any of my Pokemon get hurt or sick again when we aren't anywhere near a Pokemon Center."
"Of course." Brock answered. "Knowing about Pokemon medicine is another thing a Pokemon trainer has to learn." 
Pachirisu was feeling better in no time at all thanks to Ash. And today's activity really showed Dawn she still had a lot to learn with tending to Pokemon when they're sick or hurt.
