Ep 6. Nosing 'Round the Mountain!

Ash, Dawn, and Brock continue their journey through the Sinnoh Region, encountering new Pokemon and battling tough trainers along the way. In Nosing 'Round the Mountain!, the trio arrives at a vast mountain range where they plan to take a break and restock their supplies.

As they make their way through the mountains, they encounter a man named Wesley who claims to be a mountain guide. Wesley tells them that he can take them to a secret location where rare and valuable Pokemon often gather. Intrigued, Ash, Dawn, and Brock agree to follow Wesley on his journey.

Despite their initial excitement, the journey proves to be more treacherous than they anticipated. The mountain terrain is steep and rocky, and there are many areas where they must cross narrow bridges and climb up sheer cliffs. Along the way, they also come across dangerous wild Pokemon such as Ursaring and Skarmory.

Despite the challenges, Ash and his friends press on, eager to see what lies at the end of their journey. As they climb higher and higher, they begin to notice strange smells emanating from the mountain. Wesley tells them that this is a good sign, as it means they are getting closer to their destination.

Finally, the group reaches a hidden valley where Pokemon of all kinds are gathered. There are Pikachu, Pichu, Togetic, and even a rare Aipom that is said to be able to use its tail as a type of grappling hook. Ash and his friends are amazed by the sheer number of Pokemon they see, and they quickly begin to interact with them.

However, their excitement is cut short when they hear a loud noise coming from further up the mountain. Wesley tells them that this is the sound of a powerful Pokemon known as a Rampardos. The group realizes that they must move quickly if they want to avoid a confrontation with the rampaging creature.

As they make their way back down the mountain, they encounter several other challenges, such as a raging river and a group of wild Tauros. However, they eventually make it back to the base of the mountain, where they bid farewell to Wesley and continue on their journey.

In the end, Ash and his friends reflect on their adventure, realizing that it was both dangerous and exciting. They also realize that, while they did not catch any new Pokemon on their journey, they had the chance to see many rare and valuable creatures in their natural habitat. As they continue on their journey, they look forward to the many more adventures that await them in the world of Pokemon.
