Ep 12. Claydol Big and Tall

Ash and his friends arrive in a new town just in time for a Pokemon battle tournament. As they explore the town, they come across an old mine that is believed to be haunted. While investigating, they encounter a Claydol that seems to be guarding the entrance to the mine. The Claydol is massive in size, standing taller than any of the buildings in the town.

Curious about the giant Claydol, Ash and his friends start to explore the area more. Their investigation leads them to a hidden laboratory where they discover that the Claydol has been artificially enlarged through the use of an experimental growth serum. The serum was created by a scientist named Dr. Gordon who was trying to find a way to grow crops faster. However, his experiment inadvertently caused the Claydol to grow uncontrollably.

As Ash and his friends continue to explore the area, they come across a group of people who are using the giant Claydol to dig for precious gemstones in the mine. However, the Claydol's uncontrollable growth has caused problems for the workers, and they are struggling to keep the massive Pokemon under control.

Ash and his friends decide to help the workers by finding a way to reverse the effects of the growth serum. They approach Dr. Gordon, who agrees to help them by creating an antidote to the serum. However, creating the antidote will take time, and they need to keep the giant Claydol under control until it is ready.

As they wait for the antidote to be created, Ash and his friends work with the workers to keep the giant Claydol under control. They work together to create a giant maze to keep the Claydol contained. However, the Claydol's incredible psychic powers make it difficult to keep in one place, and it breaks free from the maze.

Determined to keep the Claydol under control, Ash and his friends come up with a new plan. Using their Pokemon, they create a net to trap the Claydol. With the Claydol trapped, they are able to administer the antidote, and it returns to its normal size.

With the Claydol's growth under control, the workers are able to resume their mining operations. Ash and his friends are happy to have helped, and they continue on their journey, ready for whatever challenges come their way next.
