Ep 6. Octillery the Outcast

Ash and the gang arrive at a seaside town where a local fisherman named Pietra invites them to witness the town's annual fishing festival. While admiring the local catch, Ash meets a young girl named Marcella who introduces him to her pet Octillery. Ash is amazed by the Water-type Pokemon's strength and agility, but Marcella tells him that Octillery is an outcast amongst the rest of her Pokemon.

Despite Octillery's impressive abilities, none of the other Pokemon in Marcella's collection want to be friends with him, leaving him to be the only one left out. Feeling sorry for Octillery, Ash and co. decide to help him in any way possible. They try to encourage Octillery by giving him some extra attention and strength training.

Elsewhere, Team Rocket are up to their old tricks as they come across a group of fishermen who are about to reel in a giant catch. The Team Rocket trio comes up with a sneaky plan to steal the catch and make a quick buck. However, their plan goes awry when Octillery crashes the party, causing Team Rocket to fly away empty-handed.

As the day goes on, the fishing festival begins and everyone is ready to start catching some big fish. However, things take a turn for the worse when a massive storm rolls in. Pietra and the other fishermen try to head back to shore, but their boats are caught in the storm and the situation becomes dangerous.

Ash and his friends offer their assistance and help out where they can. During the commotion, Octillery proves his worth and uses his incredible strength to save Pietra's boat from capsizing. This act of bravery impresses the other Pokemon and they begin to show Octillery more kindness.

As the storm subsides and the fishermen return to shore, Marcella is overjoyed by the newfound friendships formed by Octillery and her other Pokemon. Ash and co. say goodbye to their new friends and continue on their journey. However, as they walk away, Marcella's Octillery seems to have caught the eye of someone else who has been watching from afar.

This heartwarming episode showcases the true nature of Pokemon and the importance of friendship and acceptance. Octillery may have been an outcast before, but with the help of Ash and his friends, he was able to prove his worth to the rest of Marcella's Pokemon and become one of the gang.
