Brief list of major episode highlights:
- The group reaches Kurogane and heads for the Gym.
- At the Gym, they meet Shinji and the gym leader Hyouta's assistant Iwao. Iwao explains Hyouta is currently at the Kurogane mine, and couldn't challenge Shinji.
- While Shinji waits at the Pokemon Center, Satoshi and his friends head for the mine, where they ask Hyouta to return to the gym.
- The Rocket Gang are working at the mine in disguise, and overhears Hyouta talking about the possibility to revive extinct Pokémon from fossils, which gives them an idea.
- The group, along with Hyouta, returns to the gym, and Shinji is called in to challenge Hyouta first. Hikari wants to see his battle, and Shinji doesn't care either way, so the group is allowed to act as audience.
- The battle is 3 on 3, and Hyouta's Ishitsubute starts by defeating Shinji's Marilli. Shinji then sends out Elekid, which defeats Ishitsubute in one hit.
- Hyouta next sends out Iwark, which damages Elekid badly, and sets up a Stealth Rock trap. Shinji nevertheless switches to Hikozaru, which defeats Iwark with repeated Dig attacks.
- Hyouta's final Pokemon is Zugaidos, which Hikozaru has little chance to defend itself against until Blaze kicks in. Hikozaru repeatedly attacks Zugaidos' leg, but eventually falls.
- Shinji sends Elekid back in, and it eventually manages to bring down the damaged Zugaidos
- As Shinji is awarded the Coal Badge, Satoshi tells him he'll have to watch his upcoming battle too.
