Episode Title:
Trial on a Golden Scale!
Episode Description:
Goh receives his first trial mission from Project Mew. He is given three options for his trial mission, eventually selecting "Gather Volcarona's golden scales". Ash and Goh are directed to an old mine shaft. While exploring the tunnels, Goh catches a Roggenrola and a Ferrothorn. The two boys, joined by a man, find Larvesta eggs. The man is revealed to be a Pokémon hunter, and he attempts to escape with the Larvesta eggs, but Ash retrieves the eggs from the hunter. After a fire breaks out, a shiny Larvesta that evolves into Volcarona, uses Fire Spin to collect the fire. The Volcarona spreads golden scales from its wings, which Goh collects. While exiting the tunnels, the Pokémon hunter reappears along with his henchmen, demanding Ash and Goh to hand over their Pokémon. However, Danika and Quillon arrive and defeat the poachers with their Urshifu. Once Goh's sample of the golden scales are scanned, he officially clears his first trial mission and earns a token.
