Season 1: Episode 18, 'Beauty and the Beach' James of Team Rocket dresses up for a beauty contest in a bikini, including inflated breasts. They’re not essential, and they’re easy to track down for those with completist tendencies, but we’ll detail them here so you can get the gist of them without missing out. A couple episodes were deemed controversial in Japan and were never dubbed into English, and another couple aired once before being removed from the rotation. There are four episodes produced for Indigo League that aren’t in regular rotation when the series airs. Together, the three journey throughout the fictional Kanto Region, catching Pokémon, earning badges to compete in the Indigo League tournament, and evading the humorously incompetent Team Rocket-Jesse, James, and Meowth, a talking cat Pokémon-who yearn to steal Pikachu for their gang leader. Shortly after departing, Ash meets Misty, a young girl who dreams of eclipsing the training acumen of her talented older sisters, and Brock, a gym leader caring for his many younger siblings who dreams of leaving his hometown. Instead, Ash receives an unruly electric mouse Pokémon named Pikachu-but the two form a bond that is the central relationship of the series. He departs Pallet Town after oversleeping the first morning of his journey, causing him to miss out on the traditional starting Pokémon given out by resident expert Professor Oak.

The series centers on perpetual 10-year-old Ash Ketchum, a bumbling aspiring Pokémon Master who has big dreams but little follow-through on the hard work required to become a top trainer.
