Mandibuzz cries as well, as she was kicked out by another when she ate the apples. She takes them to the nest, where the other Mandibuzz goes to attack. Meowth persuades the other Mandibuzz to allow the first one to come back, as Mandibuzz offered apples.

The heroes admit Meowth is a hero, for his persuasive tactics saved the day. Iris decides to catch Meowth, throwing a Poké Ball at him. Meowth comes out, clarifying he is not anyone's Pokémon.
