Ep 12. The Professors' New Adventure!

The episode, The Professors' New Adventure!, is the twelfth episode of the twenty-first season of the popular anime series Pokémon. This episode follows the story of Ash and his friends who are traveling with two professors, Professor Kukui and Professor Burnet. They have decided to take a break from their research and go on an adventure. In this episode, the group has been invited to a mysterious island that is said to be inhabited by rare Pokémon.

The story begins with the group arriving at the port of the island. The island is surrounded by a dense fog, which makes it difficult for them to see anything. They are greeted by a strange old man who introduces himself as the caretaker of the island. He tells them that the island is home to many rare and exotic Pokémon and warns them to be careful while exploring.

The group sets out to explore the island, and soon they come across a vast jungle. They start to make their way through the jungle but soon realize that they are lost. The jungle is so dense that they can't even see the sky. Suddenly, they hear a strange rustling sound coming from the bushes. Ash and his friends are startled and ready for battle, but it turns out to be a friendly Pokémon, a group of Comfey. The group befriends the Comfey, who lead them through the jungle.

As they walk through the jungle, they come across a clearing where they spot an unusual Pokémon. It's a shiny Lucario, and it seems to be in trouble. The group rushes to help the Lucario, and they realize that it's being attacked by a group of Pokémon poachers. The poachers are trying to capture the rare Pokémon and sell them in the black market. Ash and his friends step in to stop them, and a fierce battle ensues.

After the battle, the Lucario calms down, and they realize that it's not an ordinary Lucario. It's a trained Pokémon that belongs to a local dojo. The dojo is known for training Pokémon in martial arts, and the Lucario is one of their prized students. The group is surprised to learn that the dojo has been facing trouble recently, as their prized Pokémon have been disappearing. They decide to investigate and offer their help.

The group soon finds out that the Pokémon poachers are behind the disappearances. The poachers are trying to steal the dojo's trained Pokémon to sell them in the black market. Ash and his friends come up with a plan to catch the poachers and save the dojo's Pokémon. They work together and successfully capture the poachers.

The dojo's master is grateful to Ash and his friends for their help and invites them to visit the dojo. The group happily agrees, and they all head to the dojo. They explore the dojo and meet the Pokémon trainers who train the Pokémon in martial arts. The trainers are amazed by Ash's Pokémon and challenge him to a battle. Ash accepts the challenge, and a fierce battle ensues. It's a close battle, but in the end, Ash emerges as the winner.

The episode ends with Ash and his friends bidding farewell to the dojo trainers and heading back to the port. They say goodbye to the old caretaker of the island, who tells them that they are welcome to visit anytime. As they sail back to their home, Ash and his friends are excited about their adventure and can't wait to see what awaits them in the next episode.

In conclusion, The Professors' New Adventure! is a thrilling and exciting episode that showcases the joys of exploration and friendship. It's a must-watch for all Pokémon fans who enjoy action-packed adventure and loveable characters.
