Pokémon (1997)
S08E01 Clamperl of Wisdom
Episode Overview
While traveling to Maisie Island on a ferry, the kids spot a Spoink balancing on a log, recognizing it as the same one they previously assisted. After rescuing it and bringing it on board, the Spoink accidentally drops its pearl into the water. Ash's Pokémon search for the pearl but come up empty-handed. Upon reaching the island, they encounter a scientist named Isaiah, who is studying Clamperl and their pearls, which eventually become Spoink pearls. His prized possession is a rare blue pearl. Team Rocket attempts to steal the blue pearl, but Spoink snatches it first, prompting a search for the little Psychic-type. Meanwhile, the blue pearl gets mistakenly swapped with a pink pearl from a wild Clamperl, leading everyone to look for the Clamperl, which Team Rocket then captures.
