Synopsis

Finding no direct route to Mossdeep and their next Pokémon gym battle, Ash and friends are forced to stop by a smaller island on which they discover a training institute for future Pokémon battle judges. Ash forges a friendly connection with a young student who claims to have gained three rather strong Pokémon a Wartortle, a Charmeleon, and an Ivysaur by luck alone. This boy's attempts at judging are fraught with error as well, as he continues to doubt his ability.
