Ep 15. Mountain Time

Ash and his friends continue their journey through the Johto region, making their way through the mountains. As they hike through a rocky path, they come across a group of Hiker trainers battling each other.

Excited to join in on the action, Ash challenges one of the Hikers to a battle. He sends out his Pikachu and the Hiker sends out his Geodude. The battle starts off strong, with both Pokémon putting up a good fight. However, Pikachu starts to struggle due to the rocky terrain and Geodude's natural advantage. Just as it seems like Pikachu will lose, he has a breakthrough and manages to turn the battle around with a new strategy.

After the battle, the Hiker tells the group about a nearby mountain where rare and powerful Pokémon are said to live. Determined to find these Pokémon, Ash and the gang decide to climb the mountain.

As they ascend the steep slopes, the group encounters various obstacles and challenges, including treacherous terrain, dangerous wild Pokémon, and unpredictable weather. Despite the difficulties, they press on, determined to reach the peak.

As they near the top, they find themselves facing off against a powerful opponent. A massive rock formation suddenly comes to life and attacks them, revealing itself to be a giant Golem. Ash and Pikachu team up to battle the Golem, using their courage and quick thinking to overcome the mountain-sized foe.

At last, the group reaches the top of the mountain and discovers a hidden temple, where they find an ancient artifact that holds the key to unlocking the power of the rare Pokémon that live in the mountains. With the artifact in hand, they descend the mountain, eager to see what new adventures await them on their journey.
