>>38551432Swampert debuted in Abandon Ship!, under the ownership of Tommy. It evolved from a Marshtomp that was living in an abandoned ship ever since it was separated from Tommy. Since then, it believed that Tommy had abandoned it. When Ash and his friends arrived on the abandoned ship and ran into Tommy, they started to get captured by Swampert one by one and trapped in the webbing of its Spinarak partner until only Ash, Brock, Tommy, and Pikachu were left. After getting Swampert to remember him, and informing it that it wasn't abandoned after all, Tommy ended up reuniting with Swampert.
