In the episode gotta catch you later when ash was catching up with Gary he was like " GARYYYYYYYY!" like a best friend would
So they are best friends and you can't say anything that will change my mind
" Garyyyyyyyyy!" Ash called as he ran up the hill and stopped in front of Gary.
Gary raised a brow. " Ash, you realize I'm only going for a day, right? I'm gonna see you again tomorrow."
" I .... Know....." Ash panted.
" Then ..... Why'd you come?"
Ash handed Gary a bag and nearly collapsed. " You.... Almost.... Forgot your bag."
Gary looked on his back. There was nothing.
" Whoops. Thanks Ashy. Stay safe, got it?"
Ash nodded. " I .... Will. You.... Should.... Too."
Gary raised his brow again. " I'm the careful one. It's you I'm worried about."
" Don't... Worry..... About.... Me....."
Gary sighed. " That's what you always say ...."
Tracey chased an Oddish, while Ash tried to calm Gary's Dodrio. " Hold on!" He yelled as he went flying everywhere on its back. " I just wanted to pet you! Calm down!"
" Bulbasaur!* Bulbasaur tried to reason with the Oddish, but it wouldn't listen.
" Come ba- oh, no!"
Ash watched as Tracey abandoned his chase to go and stop a Tauros. " Don't -"
" Break the fence. Oh....." Tracey sighed.
Oak tried to hold a Pancham, but it slipped away. " Wait!" He cried. " You need to eat!"
Ash sighed and rubbed his temples. " This is a mess."
Tracey, who had finally returned the Oddish to its Pokeball, put it in its enclosure and sighed. " You're telling me."
Oak sighed. " We need Gary's help."
Ash raised a brow. " And why's that?"
" Because four people are better than one."
