Kip. 51: Trials of a Budding Master!

51

While Ash is in the middle of a training session, Goh informs him of an outbreak of Geodude over at the Rock Tunnel. After Goh catches a Geodude with the help of Ash's Farfetch'd, Ash receives an alert for a nearby World Coronation Series participant. A trainer named Dozer appears with his Gurdurr, ready to challenge Ash and his Farfetch'd. The battle results in a victory for Ash, raising his rank to 381. After, another trainer, Rinto, appears. Rinto mentions that he watched Ash's previous battle and challenges him and his Farfetch'd. Farfetch'd ends up losing to Rinto's Gallade, but Rinto tells Ash that they will battle again when Ash and Farfetch'd remain synchronized. Later, Ash shows his Farfetch'd his willingness to help it become a leek master. (Source: Wikipedia)
