is it just me o Dawn's Piplup and Ash's Oshawott are ... te know ... "somewhat " similar temperamentally? As well as physically.
Look at these luvely X3 immies and comment. I Amore both of them ... I Amore them being alike and their differences ...

Piplup is male,as Oshawott. Iris's Emolga (Osha's desire object) is female. If Dawn's Pachirisu will be confirmed as female (sometimes it wore cheerleader skirt)and the 2 would fall in love..another similarities! O_0

I think Oshawott and Piplup are cousin (fathers who are brothers) and passed together they're childhood. Hope to see it. Or,if this isn't,a episode where the 2 meet. As Ash and Dawn,in promotional travel at Unova PokéTheatre! XP
