- November 23, 2017
Ash and his friends come across a new island in the Alola region where they meet a young girl named Mina, who is an aspiring artist. Mina invites them to join her family for a traditional Alolan feast, where her grandmother tells them the story of Mina's grandfather, who was also an artist. He had lost his way and stopped painting, but after being inspired by his family's love and determination, he found his passion again.
Meanwhile, Team Rocket has landed on the island and is up to their usual mischief. They steal Mina's precious paintbrush, but when they find out about the family's determination to help her retrieve it, they start to question their own lack of family support.
As Mina and her family search for the missing paintbrush, Ash and his friends help out by using their Pokémon to track it down. Along the way, they encounter some new Alolan Pokémon, like the adorable Dewpider and the fierce Golisopod.
Finally, they track down Team Rocket and battle it out to retrieve the paintbrush. In the end, Mina's determination and love for art prevails, and her family is filled with pride. Team Rocket also realizes the importance of family support and promises to be there for each other in the future.
Overall, "Family Determination!" is a heartwarming and inspiring episode that highlights the power of love and support in achieving our dreams. With plenty of action, humor, and new Pokémon to discover, it's a great addition to the Pokemon the Series season 21 lineup.
