Ep 30. A Diamond in the Rough!

Ash and his friends continue their journey through the Kalos region. In this episode, titled "A Diamond in the Rough!", they stumble upon a group of miners who are searching for a rare and valuable diamond. Our heroes decide to pitch in and help with the excavation, but they soon discover that Team Rocket has set their sights on the diamond as well.

The miners are led by an old man named Meyer, who has been searching for the diamond for years. He explains that the diamond is not only valuable, but it is also said to have special powers that can make Pokemon stronger. Of course, Team Rocket is eager to get their hands on such a treasure, but Ash and his friends are determined to stop them.

As the group continues to dig deeper and deeper into the mine, they encounter a series of obstacles and challenges. The tunnels are dark and treacherous, and there are plenty of wild Pokemon lurking about. They must rely on their skills and teamwork to overcome these obstacles and reach the diamond before Team Rocket does.

During their journey, Ash and his friends encounter a new Pokemon that they've never seen before. This little guy is a rock and ground type Pokemon with a diamond-shaped body and a single eye. He seems friendly enough, but nobody knows what he's capable of. They decide to nickname him Rough, in honor of the diamond they are searching for.

As the group gets closer to the diamond, tensions begin to rise. Team Rocket has been watching them the whole time, and they're constantly devising new schemes to take the treasure for themselves. At one point, they manage to steal Rough and threaten to harm him if Ash and his friends don't surrender the diamond.

In order to save Rough and secure the diamond, our heroes must battle Team Rocket in a fierce battle. It's a tough fight, but they manage to come out on top in the end. With the diamond in their hands, they unleash its power on their Pokemon, and they all gain a new level of strength.

In the end, Meyer decides to give the diamond to Ash as a token of gratitude for all their help. He explains that he has been searching for the diamond for so long, but he never expected to find it with the help of such brave and dedicated trainers. With the diamond safely tucked away, Ash and his friends continue their journey through the Kalos region, eager to see what other adventures lie ahead.
