Poketto monsutâ - Season 17 Episode 9

As our heroes arrive in Miare City, Satoshi and Serena look around in awe, while Citron and Eureka seem a little nervous. The impressive Prism Tower catches Serena's eye, and Satoshi tells her about his attempt to challenge the Miare Gym inside it–an attempt that was shut down by a robot who threw him out because he didn't have four Kalos Gym badges. Citron and Eureka try to get them moving when someone pulls up beside them–it's Limone, Citron and Eureka's father. Limone reveals that Citron is the Miare City Gym Leader. Citron explains that the Gym was taking up too much of his time, so he built a robot named Citroid to take over some of his duties. But a glitch in the programming means Citroid sticks to the "rules" no matter what–and since Citron doesn't have four Gym badges either, Citroid won't let him inside his own Gym. Along with Satoshi, Citroid sneaks into the Gym so he can repair the malfunctioning robot. They find Citroid on the battlefield, where it accepts Citron's override code–and his battle challenge. Citron sends out Horubee against his own Elezard, one of the Pokémon he left at the Gym to fight at Citroid's side. With some strategy, Citron manages to defeat his own creation. The robot finally recognizes its inventor, and Citron starts a full reprogramming. This time, he remembers to install a few important qualities he initially left out: compassion, kindness, and flexibility. Then, along with Satoshi and Serena, Citron and Eureka visit their dad to explain the situation at the Gym–and to tell him they want to leave the new, improved Citroid in charge so they can keep traveling with their new friends. Limone happily declares his support for their journey. That night, Citron asks Satoshi if he's sorry he couldn't have a Miare Gym battle. Satoshi says he plans to return when he's a bit further along in his Kalos journey…on one condition. When he does come back to challenge the Miare Gym, he wants to battle Citron, not Citroid.
