Name: Second Time's the Charm!
Released: 2006-03-30

Following a crushing loss to Anabel, Ash is determined to face her again, this time with a strategy that involves collaborating closely with his Pokémon, much like Anabel does. While preparing for the rematch, Ash is unexpectedly attacked by a swarm of Beedrill and later by Team Rocket after they steal their lunch. After fending off Team Rocket, Ash and May attempt to communicate with their Pokémon in the same way Anabel does, but Corphish and Combusken seem uninterested. Once his “training” is complete, Ash battles Anabel again. Although she uses her telepathy as before, Ash performs surprisingly well, even winning the first round! Can he overcome Anabel's powerful abilities to secure his sixth Frontier Symbol?
