Ep 47. Sandshrew's Locker

Ash and his friends arrive at a new town, where they meet a young explorer named Kylie. Kylie is searching for the Frontier Brains, powerful trainers rumored to be some of the strongest in the world. However, she needs to find a rare and valuable item called the Brave Symbol in order to enter their secret facility. Ash, Brock, and Dawn offer to help her in her search.

The group soon comes across a Sandshrew who seems to be guarding a locker in the middle of a deserted field. They quickly realize that the locker is the one they are looking for, as it contains the Brave Symbol. However, Sandshrew refuses to let them take it, and a battle ensues. Despite their best efforts, Ash and his friends are unable to defeat Sandshrew, and they retreat to a nearby town to regroup.

While there, they meet a friendly local who tells them about a nearby hot spring where Pokemon often go to heal and relax. The group decides to visit the hot spring in hopes of finding other strong Pokemon to help them in their battle against Sandshrew.

At the hot spring, they encounter a group of wild Pokemon, including a Wobbuffet who seems to have a special connection to Sandshrew. The group also meets a kind-hearted trainer named Rianna, who offers to help them in their quest. Together, they devise a plan to defeat Sandshrew and retrieve the Brave Symbol.

The group returns to the field, where they engage Sandshrew in battle once again. With Rianna's help, they are finally able to defeat Sandshrew and retrieve the Brave Symbol. They thank Rianna for her help and say goodbye before continuing on their journey.

As they leave the town, Ash and his friends reflect on their adventure and the many new friends they have made along the way. Just as they are about to continue their journey, they receive a mysterious message from someone claiming to be one of the Frontier Brains. The message prompts them to continue on their journey, confident that they are capable of facing any challenge that comes their way.
