The Trainer's Guide

We’re back with an electric episode! The trio travels to Gringey City (we can all relate), where there are more factories than people, and no Pokémon… or so we think! Things run a-“muk” when the power goes out in the city, and Ash and the gang must use their “magnetic” personalities and Pokémon to solve the problem! 

In this episode we discuss electric and magnetic fields, pollution and our personal choices, and the “oddball” of the family, Nurse Joy!

Our friends find themselves on Scissor Street- a place where fashion flourishes and breeders flock! A mysterious salon has just opened and is taking business away from Susie- a very accomplished breeder focused on substance over style. 

Can Ash and Brock help Susie prove that it’s what’s on the inside that counts? Or will Misty fall prey to fabulous Salon Rockét, where beauty is more important than brains? 

In this episode we discuss the importance of self care, how a life on the road compliments academic achievement, and emulating Team Rocket’s knack for personal flair!

Our trainers arrive in Celadon City! While Misty, Brock, and Pikachu are intoxicated by the lovely scents of the perfume shops, Ash only has a nose for the sweet scent of victory that awaits him at the Celadon City Gym! However, his lack of empathy towards the perfume sellers make it impossible for him to enter, and he is forced to work with Team Rocket to sneak into the gym and challenge Erika!

Will Ash get some “scents” and find a way to win the Rainbow Badge? Or will he have to change himself completely to achieve his goal? 

In this episode we discuss the importance of being open and respectful of customs and traditions when traveling to new places, how curiosity can help you live longer, and a wild camel ride we took in Egypt that led us to our very own perfume shop!
