Ep 22. The Apple Corp!

Ash and his friends come across an apple orchard and are excited to try the delicious fruit. However, they soon discover that the orchard is being taken over by a group called the Apple Corp! The group claims ownership of the orchard and demands that all visitors pay a fee to eat the apples.

Ash and his friends are outraged by this and challenge the Apple Corp to a battle to win back the right to freely enjoy the apples. The leader of the Apple Corp, a woman named Stella, agrees to the challenge and sends out her strongest Pokemon to face Ash's Pikachu.

The battle is intense and both sides put up a great fight. Eventually, Pikachu emerges victorious and the Apple Corp agrees to let visitors enjoy the apples without paying a fee. But when they return to the orchard the next day, they find that the Apple Corp has reneged on their promise and is once again demanding payment for the apples.

Determined to put an end to the Apple Corp's greed, Ash and his friends come up with a plan to expose their fraudulent behavior. They secretly record a conversation between Stella and her associates in which they discuss their plans to take over other orchards and charge even more for the fruit.

With this evidence, Ash and his friends confront Stella and force her to admit to her devious plans. She apologizes and agrees to stop her fraudulent behavior. The episode ends with Ash and his friends enjoying the delicious apples without having to pay a penny.
