Poketto monsutâ - Season 17 Episode 35

Traversing a forest on their way to Shara City, our heroes happily watch three forest Pokémon help each other gather berries. Suddenly, an angry Ringuma appears, grabbing their berries and scaring them out of their wits! Then, just as suddenly, a brave Luchabull appears and battles the Ringuma, giving the forest Pokémon time to retrieve their berries. But Luchabull strikes an artistic pose right before its last move, which allows Ringuma to escape. Speaking with a forest caretaker named Kanazawa, our heroes learn that Luchabull is the "Forest Champion", protecting weaker forest Pokémon from the more aggressive ones. Satoshi is quite taken with Luchabull , vowing to help it figure out how to retain its "battle artistry" while overcoming its final move pause. The original Forest Champion, a Kairiki, reappears, challenging Luchabull for the title. Kairiki wants a one-on-one battle, but its partners, Ringuma and Roubushin, have other ideas! But Ringuma and Roubushin are defeated and Kairiki leaves, vowing a future rematch. Satoshi offers to battle Luchabull with Keromatsu, showing Luchabull how it can keep its battle artistry without stopping for a final pose, and it works! Again expressing his admiration for Luchabull , Satoshi asks it to come along with him on his journey, and Luchabull agrees! So, it's off again to the Shara City Gym with a new Pokémon friend: Luchabull!
