Surfing the Orange Islands

It's a new league and new experiences when Ash and his cute and faithful Pokémon partner Pikachu set out to an exotic south-seas destination: the Orange Islands. Amid the tropical paradise of the beaches and citrus tress, there new friends to make, new sights to see, and new dangers to face! Are Ash and Pikachu up to the challenge?

Ash and his Pokémon friends have to find a way to stop a rampaging Snorlax from eating all the grapefruit on the seven Grapefruit Islands, before it forces the islands' inhabitants into bankruptcy! Then, Ash is ready to battle for his badge, but the gym leader is only interested in marrying Misty! In a side story, Ash faces off against Gary in a decisive Pokémon battle! And finally, Ash must face his childhood hero for the title of Orange Crew Supreme Gym Leader! Ash lost at the Indigo Championship—can he win in the Orange Islands?

Pokémon is more than a game or a TV show; it's a cultural phenomenon that has won the hearts of Japanese and American fans alike! Pokémon comics, games, TV episodes and toys are runaway hits worldwide. But Pokémon's appeal comes from exciting stories and dynamic personalities—the heart displayed by Ash and the loyalty of Pikachu and the other Pokémon. See for yourself what all the excitement is about!
