- May 15, 2004
Just One of the Geysers is the 31st episode of season 6 of the Pokemon the Series. In this exciting episode, Ash, Pikachu, May, Max and Brock are traveling through a rocky terrain on their way to Lavaridge Town. As they walk, they come across a large geyser and decide to take a break and explore the area around it.
While they are resting, they see a group of trainers battling nearby. The trainers are arguing about who gets to use the hot springs that are created by the geyser. Ash and his friends decide to investigate and learn that the hot springs are a popular destination for trainers who want to sooth their Pokemon's muscles after battle.
However, the trainers are divided into two groups — those who believe that everyone should share the hot springs equally and those who think that the hot springs should be reserved for those who win battles. Ash and his friends become caught up in the conflict and are eventually challenged to a battle by the latter group.
As the battle begins, the geyser starts to erupt, creating confusion and chaos among the trainers. The hot water and steam start to affect the Pokemon, causing them to fall ill and become unable to battle. Ash and his friends realize that they need to find a way to stop the geyser from erupting before anyone gets seriously hurt.
The group decides to work together to solve the problem. They notice that a Jamming Signal is being used to disrupt the geyser's pressure, causing it to erupt. They discover that the signal is coming from a nearby cave and devise a plan to stop it.
Ash, Pikachu, May and Brock head to the cave while Max stays behind to take care of the sick Pokemon. In the cave, they encounter Team Rocket who are also trying to stop the Jamming Signal. Together, they manage to disable the signal, stopping the geyser from erupting.
With the Jamming Signal stopped, the group realizes that they need to find a way to prevent the trainers from fighting over the hot springs in the future. They come up with the idea of creating a hot springs scheduling system, ensuring that everyone gets a fair chance to use the hot springs.
In the end, Ash and his friends continue on their journey, leaving the trainers to enjoy their newly-implemented scheduling system. Just One of the Geysers is a heartwarming episode that emphasizes the importance of teamwork and compromise. It also teaches the viewers about the therapeutic benefits of hot springs and the need to protect natural resources.
