JE036: Hot Matches!

Synopsis
While en route to Goldenrod City, Ash and friends run into a trainer whose Growlithe fainted after battling a trainer near the bridge. Now psyched up, Ash and co. head to the bridge only to find a beautiful girl (who Brock falls for at first sight). But there is more to this beauty, Miki, than meets the eye. In fact, She's the trainer who beat the snot out of the other trainer's Growlithe with her Pokémon, Skarmory. She wants to see if a Fire type can actually beat her Skarmory. Is Ash up for the challenge with his Cyndaquil?

Trivia

 * The Growlithe trainer was voiced by Kayzie Rogers.
 * This is another episode to introduce a new type of Pokemon: the Steel Type, if you don't count Magnemite from IL030: Sparks Fly for Magnemite.
