“Goodbye Junior Cup-Hello Adventure!” · Season 15, Episode 45
In this episode: Ash Ketchum (2), Dawn (2), Trip (2), Referee (1), Alder (1), Freddy O'Martin (1)
Serperior is unable to continue! Bouffalant wins! And that means the winner is Alder the Champion!
Alder wins the battle with just one attack! A brave challenge by Trip sure, but he falls short of victory! Once again, Alder proves why he is a Champion! [Until Journeys when Iris became the new Unova Champion, causing Trip's failure of accomplishing his goal of defeating Alder more permanent]
Alder.
What is it?
I didn't stand a chance against you. Won't you please tell me what I did wrong in our battle? I must have been lacking something.
You really didn't do anything wrong. You weren't lacking anything. [Except experience]
But you beat me. You kept me from showing how strong I've become.
So what if I did? Thinking back, you asked me the same thing a while ago. I'm pretty sure I know the answer but do you have any admiration for a man like me? Winning, losing, strength, weakness, in the end, your Pokémon will determine all that. There is no easy answer to what you ask. But if I have to choose one thing, I'd say look at all you've learned from the day you started on your journey right up to today. That may be the answer you seek.
Everything I learned...
[Note: This loss was to remind fans that while Trip is a skilled trainer, he is very inexperienced. Trip represents a trainer who thinks that defeating a Champion is easy in real life like in the video games but not realizing there is a difference between video games and reality.]
Huh? It's Trip!
Alder's amazing, don't you think?
Yeah, he's something, all right. I'm really glad I was able to battle him.
So, we'll see you at the Unova League, won't we?
Right.
Dawn, lots of luck when you compete in the Wallace Cup and make sure you win it, no matter what!
No need to worry! And good luck to you at the Unova League!
