Pokémon Season 1 Episode 9 | The School of Hard Knocks | English Dub

Our three heroes have lost their way in the depths of a dense wooden forest, shrouded in thick, white mist. Momentarily giving up, they decide to break for a brief rest. As Ash wanders deeper into the wood, searching for firewood, he happens across a young boy being bullied by five classmates gathered around him. Eavesdropping on their conversation, Ash learns that the boys are attending a preparatory school for Pokémon trainers. Graduates from the school are automatically qualified to participate in the Pokémon League without traveling around and collecting any badges. Ash, Misty, and Brock head to the school and do not agree with some of their ideas of training, something their “leader” does not take well.
