Episode 73 - Marowak's Bone Club
Last week before the Pokemon League begins, and training has been a total bust. Ash goes crawling to Professor Oak for any last-second cramming tips he might have. His response is not promising: "Hell are you still doing here!? You know you have to physically be at Indigo Plateau next week, right? Gary already left some time ago!"
So I guess training's over and it's time to cross Victory Road.
Along the way, he's challenged by a Trainer named Saizo/Otoshi. (They changed his Japanese name to another Japanese name. Okay, localizers.) Without revealing how many badges he has, Otoshi challenges Ash to a serious wager; A Pokemon match for all the Badges the other has. (This is definitely a trick.)
The battle begins with Bulbasaur vs. Marowak. This is good for Ash according to Type Chart because Marowak is weak to Grass. But the Type Chart isn't everything. As a fully evolved Pokemon, Marowak has a strong edge, particularly in physical stats and HP, to compensate for that disadvantage. Worse, Bulbasaur's Poison Typing neutralizes their Grass resistance to Ground, so the advantage is fairly minor.
Otoshi also makes use of more advanced tactics. Ash foregoes status moves to try and muscle his way to victory via Vine Whip. But Otoshi spends a set-up turn for Focus Energy before coming in with Bone Club. One good, solid crit with vastly superior Physical stats settles the match.
With his back against the wall, Ash sends out Pikachu. This should be a terrible idea but yet again, Pikachu's unique ability to ignore Type Immunity allows him to take down Marowak with a Thundershock. (I'm surprised that in nine generations of games, they've never just gone ahead and made "Ignores Ground Immunity to Electric" an Ability that Pikachu can have. There are similar Abilities out there.)
Otoshi concedes immediately and confesses that he has no Badges and was trying to rip off Ash's. He did put in the work and collect eight Badges, but he fell for an old-school Team Rocket pifall and had them stolen.
(I love how, even when they screw off to go rob someone else, Jessie and James still wind up going the same way as Ash. They really are just cursed to forever be in each other's lives.)
Marowak briefly has a crisis of faith with regards to being Otoshi's partner, but then just sort of gets over it and comes back. Jessie betrays James and tries to take the Badges for herself so she can enter the League. And we find out that James plays the Pokemon TCG to try and understand the game rules better, which is probably his problem right there. Very different ruleset.
But ultimately, retrieving Otoshi's Badges proves from these three lunkheads proves about as simple an affair as usual. And then it's off to Indigo Plateau!

An otoshi (お通し)of Kibinago (silver-stripe-round-herring) cooked over charcoal. Otoshi refers to a simple dish served at izakaya (tavern) to snack on until the item you ordered is served. It came to be called "otoshi" because it means "conveying the customer's order to the kitchen". You can say that otoshi is a mandatory appetizer which is used as a per head table charge. So don’t be surprised if your tab is higher than expected. It is probably the cost of the otoshi added to your tab. It is usually inexpensive and allows you to enjoy a kind of “pre- tasting” of food on the menu, and it has become a commonplace service in izakaya. #izakaya #izakayas #IzakayaFood #otoshi #japanculture #japancultureexperience https://www.instagram.com/p/CntJoPgL9Fk/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

During randori i actually hit drop seoi against the guy I literally developed my ippon seoi to beat :-) i was sooooo beat up on tuesday but literally the practice on the move was worth it
