Navel Maneuvers

While crossing the beach of Navel Island, Ash finds a sign instructing all badge candidates to climb Snow Mountain – without help from any Pokemon. When Ash reaches the top, the gym trainer Danny reveals the climb was just a test. The competition begins and, although Team Rocket shows up during the games, Ash defeats the villains and goes on to victory! Winning two out of three events, Ash is awarded the Sea Ruby Badge!
