Ep 15. An Appetite for Battle!

Ash and the gang finally make their way to Cyllage City, the site of Ash's next Gym battle. But before they can even think about taking on the Gym Leader, they stumble upon a local Poké-Puff festival. Serena is eager to participate in the festivities, especially since she's been practicing her Poké-Puff baking skills. However, before she can enter the competition, she quickly realizes that she'll need to find a partner to compete with.

Enter Miette, a rival pastry chef and fellow Poké-Puff enthusiast. The two immediately hit it off, but it isn't long before their friendly rivalry takes an intense turn. Miette challenges Serena to a preliminary bake-off to determine who will enter the main competition. Serena, eager to prove her skills to both Miette and herself, agrees to the challenge.

As the baking begins, the competition quickly heats up. Both chefs pull out all the stops as they craft elaborate Poké-Puff creations. Ash, Clemont, and Bonnie watch nervously from the sidelines as the judges struggle to choose a winner. Finally, after what seems like an eternity, Miette is declared the victor.

Serena is understandably disappointed, but she doesn't have long to dwell on her loss. It just so happens that Miette is also in town to challenge the Cyllage City Gym Leader, Grant.

Despite her recent setback, Serena is determined to help Miette in her upcoming battle. The two girls spend the day training, working on their battle strategies and honing their skills. Meanwhile, Ash and his friends explore the city, anxiously awaiting the upcoming Gym battle.

When the day of the battle arrives, Serena and Miette face off against Grant together. While they each have their own strategies, they quickly realize that working together is the key to victory. With their combined skills, they manage to knock out both of Grant's Pokémon and earn their Gym badges.

As the episode comes to a close, Serena and Miette part ways for now, but not before promising to meet up and battle again. Ash and his friends continue their journey, eager to see what new adventures await them.
