Ep. 32: Olivia’s Akala Island Lesson Features Diverse Stoutland Reactions and Treasure Hunt Results

32

During a practical lesson on Akala Island, Olivia assigns the group to hunt for treasures while riding Stoutland. Each Pokémon reacts uniquely to its rider: Ash’s is enthusiastic, Lana’s is resistant, and Lillie struggles to approach hers. In the first round, Ash collects three gemstones, Mallow discovers giant mushrooms, and Kiawe uncovers a large fossil, while Lana and Sophocles find nothing. In the second round, Lana’s Stoutland repels a hostile Pokémon, Ash fails to catch an Alolan Geodude, Mallow finds a giant fruit, Kiawe locates another fossil, and Sophocles uses technology to find a meteorite fragment. Lana wins by finding a metal lump for a Z-ring. Finally, Lillie applies lessons from Snowy and Pikachu to successfully get close to her Stoutland.
