Pokemon Episode Number 5
Showdown in Pewter City
Ash finally exits Viridian Forest and sits down to rest,
looking at
Pewter City. He then encounters a cryptic old man, talking about
stone.
Ash leaves him and heads for the Pokemon center.
His Pokemon healed, Ash decides to try for the Pokemon
regional
tournament, but discovers he needs to collect eight Badges from the
Gym
Leaders around the world. Misty offers to help, but Ash refuses and
she
doesn't talk to him for the rest of the episode.
Ash heads to the Pewter City Gym and challenges Brock to a
duel.
However, Brock's Onix easily defeats Pikachu. Ash leaves, but runs
into
the old man again. He takes Ash to see Brock's family, of which he
has
10 little brothers/sisters. The old man then takes him to a windmill
to
supercharge Pikachu. With Pikachu powered up, he heads back to
defeat
Brock.
Brock sends out a Geodude, which beats Ash's Pidgeotto
easily.
However, Ash's Pikachu torches the Geodude. Brock then sends out
Onix.
As they battle, Pikachu accidentally starts a fire, which starts the
sprinkler system going. Onix becomes weak, but Ash leaves and says
that
is will be an unfair victory.
Ash leaves Pewter City, but Bock chases him down and gives
him the
Boulder Badge. The old man steps onto the scene and reveals himself
as
Brock's long lost father. He tells Brock to go with Ash and says he
will
take care of the family. Ash and Brock leave, followed by Misty.
