ASH "Baffling The Bouffalant."
Oh, man, what was up with all those Bouffalant?
There's no doubt they were unusually aggressive.
POKEDEX Bouffalant,
the Bash Buffalo Pokémon.
While aggressively defending its territory
Bouffalant will charge anything and everything in its way.
Of course. We must have wandered into the Bouffalant's territory.
Man, we really goofed.
We'd better find Iris right away and get out of here fast.
Hello, Ash!
Where are you?
[CALLING]
Did anybody have any luck?
[NEGATIVE]
Oh, no.
Iris. Where are you?
Say something, please!

you've got to listen to me.
Iris. Please. Say something!
PIKACHU [CURIOUS]

[ANGRY]
[EXERTION]
This's no time for you two to be fighting.
- 'Huh?' - Huh?
What in the world are all of you doing out here?
Huh, mm.
IRIS 'You're Nurse Joy, right?'
That's me. I'm from the nearby Pokémon Center.
This is Audino, my assistant.
[GREETING]
So, what are you doing out here?
We were attacked by a herd of stampeding Bouffalant
and got separated from our friends when we ran away.
I can see why. This area is the Bouffalant's territory.
Huh?
See, what it boils down to is
the Bouffalant think you're trespassing.
Huh? I had no idea we were doing that.
[WORRIED]
That's very surprising
considering there are many signs posted throughout the area
warning people of that very danger.
I haven't seen any signs. Have you?
[NEGATIVE]
It's possible they broke them all again.
[CONCERNED]
If you don't mind, I'd like to ask you something.
NURSE JOY Sure. What?
Is that hairstyle of yours popular around these parts
or are you just making your own personal fashion statement?
Huh? This?
Oh, I'm wearing a wig. Audino is too.
[HAPPY]
Wow. It totally sets you apart.
We wear these wigs to keep the Bouffalant away.
- 'Are you serious?' - Of course.
Why, just the other day, several strangers wandered through.
And as one would expect, they were attacked.
However, one of them had the most amazingly curly hair
and the Bouffalant left him alone.
So, Audino and I thought
we'd try wearing curly wigs
and since then the Bouffalant haven't bothered us one bit.
They couldn't be jealous, right?
[UNSURE]
If you're smart, you'll wear curly wigs too.
Huh! We left our curly wigs at home.
[AGREEMENT] No problem at all.
We always have extra wigs on hand
just for unsuspecting strangers like you.
- You're kidding. - Oh, no.
We even have a supply of wigs for all your Pokémon.
[SHOCKED]

Ah! Don't you think this a bit much?

[STRUGGLING]
Snivy, you've got to understand that
wearing this wig is for your own well-being.
SNIVY [RESISTING]
NURSE JOY 'Please. You have to.'
I'd say no, if I could.
[EXASPERATED] BOUFFALANT [ANGRY]
Huh?

[SHOCKED]
[chuckles]
[ANGRY]
[EXERTION]
Whoa. You were right .
See?
SNIVY [CURIOUS]
So, what are you doing out here, Nurse Joy?
Bouffalant do a good bit of their training
by headbutting each other, and in the process
they can accidentally get hurt.
I like to come around several times a week
to see how they are.
Amazing.
Don't forget, be sure you leave the area
as soon as you find your friends.
I will. Thanks a lot, Nurse Joy.

Excuse me, but that's some interesting hair you've got.
Quite a unique form of self-expression.
Your friend knows all about it, but I'll explain it again.
So, the Bouffalant don't attack you
as long as you wear your curly wig?
Wow! That's pretty weird.
[CONFUSED]
Hm, perhaps because these wigs
look like the Bouffalant's curly fur
they might think we're part of the herd.
Yeah.
I have extra wigs for people who've wandered into the area.
