Ash, Brock, and Misty spent the day taking care of the dairy's many Miltank. After Ash stoped a barrel-shaped robot piloted by Team Rocket, he came up with a strategy to defeat Miltank.

Miltank Clefairy Nidorina In the Games Whitney's title is "The Incredibly Pretty Girl". Although she only began battling a little while ago, Whitney's talent attracted the Pokémon League to choose her as a Gym Leader. Her gym is filled with other young girls like herself, who use cute Normal-type Pokémon like Meowth. Her gym is shaped like a Clefairy. Whitney doesn't like trainers who are too serious in battle. When Whitney's defeated, she throws a temper tantrum, and cries — she calms down and stops soon after.
