<section begin="Synopsis"/>''Ash and friends come across a group of kindergarten students who have befriended a Trubbish after rescuing it from a junkyard. The students want to keep it in their class, but their teacher, Daniela, will have no part of it! She thinks a Trubbish will be impossible to care for, as well as being unsafe for the class.''<section end="Synopsis"/>
On their way to Nacrene City, the gang is harassed by a group of schoolchildren with the Garbage Pokémon [[Trubbish]]. They head to a nearby Pokémon Daycare and kindergarten where they learn from the kids teacher Miss Daniela that the kids found the Trubbish at the garbage dump and decided to bring it back to the school. However, Miss Daniela told them that the Trubbish could not stay and brought it back to the dump, only for the kids to bring it back and form a gang called the Trubbish Squad and barricade themselves in a tree house surrounded by garbage. Ash goes up to the tree house to convince them that the Trubbish has to go, but is attacked by the group yet befriends them as well. Elsewhere, Team Rocket is given a fake meteorite and are told that they will get more information later. Back at the school, the Sandile with the Black Glasses arrives and the children have Trubbish fight it. Miss Yuri then decides that she should battle the Trubbish Squad to determine whether or not Trubbish should stay. Ash challenges her, as he has joined the squad, and she sends out her Deerling to fight Pikachu. But during the fight, a pile of garbage falls over and almost crushes one of the kids and Trubbish. However, Miss Yuri got in the way, saving them. After the fight, she decides that Trubbish can stay and everyone cleans up the school. Before Ash and his group leave, the owner of the Daycare gives Ash a Pokémon Egg.

==Episode plot==
  +
As [[Cilan (anime)|Cilan]] gives info to [[Ash Ketchum/Black & White|Ash]] and [[Iris (anime)|Iris]], they encounter a bunch of children, who are tracked by two women. The children throw dirt at the heroes, though Iris jumps on the fence, dodging the attack. A Pokémon takes Ash's hat and they go away. The heroes are enraged, but the women come an apologize for the attack. The [[Ash's Krookodile|Sunglasses Sandile]] digs out, then goes back, seeing nothing around. The heroes are at a daycare and admire the eggs. The women are [[Karena]], the owner of the daycare and [[Daniela]], the teacher of the kindergarten class. She explains the children found a Trubbish (the Pokémon that took Ash's hat) in a junkyard and decided to befriend it.
  +
  +
Daniela explains that the children brought it to the kindergarten, but Daniela didn't want Trubbish to create garbage (since it likes that). The children were persistent, but Daniela took Trubbish and placed it to the junkyard. However, the children piled up garbage around the treehouse and claimed it as their base. Ash admires this determination, but Iris thinks he is worse than those children. The children named themselves as Trubbish Squad and want to protect Trubbish. Daniela sees they need to clear the junk, but Ash proposes he could talk to the children, as he played such games. Ash climbs up, but the children alert Trubbish, who releases a smell to distract Ash and Pikachu. The children push the junk and „imprison“ Ash and Pikachu.
  +
  +
Ash tells Iris he got trapped, who responds to get it together. The children intimidate Ash and Pikachu, using water pistols to soak them. Inside the treehouse, Ash is impressed by the layout. The children are amazed by Pikachu, though the leader with Ash's hat, Avery, orders them not to befriend the enemy. Ash replies he does not want to be the enemy, so Avery trusts him and pats Pikachu. Ash warns them Pikachu may zap them if it is pulled around, scaring the children for a second. Ash tells Pikachu can use Thunderbolt, though Pikachu uses that on Ash, electrocuting him. Trubbish tries to look cute, so Ash guesses it does look cute. Avery gives Ash the hat back, who puts it on his head.
  +
  +
Team Rocket waits and get approached by the agent (asking when does the train leave as a code), who gives them a suitcase containing a replica of a rock. The agent reports the boss is pleased by their work and leaves. Meanwhile, Ash advises the children to go apologize to the teacher. However, the children reply that they, nor Trubbish, did anything wrong, though the teacher took it back to the junkyard. Suddenly, Trubbish releases a smell. Though the children claim it does not stink, Ash yells out because of the smell. Everyone leaves the treehouse and Ash notices the Sunglasses Sandile that wanted to rescue the Pokémon.
  +
  +
Sandile sees Pikachu and uses Stone Edge, hitting Ash. The children throw the mud at Sandile, who retaliates using Stone Edge. Trubbish releases Toxic Spikes, dealing damage to Sandile. Pikachu uses Iron Tail on Sandile, followed with Trubbish's Sludge, blasting Sandile off. Ash admits this is all fun and laughs with the children. Daniela and Karina see they need to intervene. They look on the Trubbish Squad, with Ash as a new member. Daniela tells they cannot keep Trubbish and sends Deerling to force it to leave. Ash decides to protect Trubbish, using Pikachu against Deerling. Deerling tackles Pikachu, who uses Thunderbolt. Deerling avoids the attack and goes to tackle, but Pikachu dodges. However, Deerling bumps into the junk, which is going to collapse. Karen, Iris and Cilan go to rescue the children, while Daniela tells Avery to move away. Avery does not want to leave Trubbish, though a junk is falling on him.
  +
  +
Daniela saves Avery, while Ash and Pikachu are pushing the junk that Deerling bumped into. Trubbish uses Sludge, knocking away the junk that was about to fall, saving everyone. Later, the children apologize to Daniela, as they could've been hurt. Daniela apologizes too, as she did not listen to the children about Trubbish. Daniela decides to let Trubbish stay in the class, while Karen points out the happier Trubbish is, the less it will release the smell. The heroes are surprised as she didn't tell this before, but Karena replies one finds their own way to raise children or Pokémon. At night, the heroes clean up the junk, as Ash knows this is for the children.
  +
  +
Next day, Karena gives Ash an Egg to care for. Ash accepts the egg and promises he will have a battle with the children someday. The heroes leave the kindergarten, bidding everyone goodbye.

Here Comes the Trubbish Squad! (Japanese: ヤブクロン戦隊と秘密基地!?, HepburnThe Trubbish Squad and the Secret Base!?) is the 12th episode of Pokémon: Black & White.

Synopsis

Ash and friends come across a group of kindergarten students who have befriended a Trubbish after rescuing it from a junkyard. The students want to keep it in their class, but their teacher, Daniela, will have no part of it! She thinks a Trubbish will be impossible to care for, as well as being unsafe for the class.

Ash offers to go and talk to the kids on behalf of their teacher, but when he sees how much fun the kids are having in their clubhouse—and how much they really care about Trubbish—he ends up siding with them! When Daniela still refuses to allow Trubbish to stay, Ash challenges her to a battle. As they’re about to begin, the secret clubhouse that the kids and Trubbish built out of junk starts to collapse!

Ash and Pikachu attempt to help Daniela and her Deerling stop the clubhouse from falling down. As they struggle to hold up the toppling wall of junk, the Trubbish saves the day with a powerful series of Sludge attacks! Seeing how much the kids care about Trubbish and vice versa, the teacher reconsiders her position and asks Trubbish to stay with the class after all. And for his role in helping protect the children, Ash is given a mysterious Pokémon Egg![1]

Episode plot

As Cilan gives info to Ash and Iris, they encounter a bunch of children, who are tracked by two women. The children throw dirt at the heroes, though Iris jumps on the fence, dodging the attack. A Pokémon takes Ash's hat and they go away. The heroes are enraged, but the women come an apologize for the attack. The Sunglasses Sandile digs out, then goes back, seeing nothing around. The heroes are at a daycare and admire the eggs. The women are Karena, the owner of the daycare and Daniela, the teacher of the kindergarten class. She explains the children found a Trubbish (the Pokémon that took Ash's hat) in a junkyard and decided to befriend it.

Daniela explains that the children brought it to the kindergarten, but Daniela didn't want Trubbish to create garbage (since it likes that). The children were persistent, but Daniela took Trubbish and placed it to the junkyard. However, the children piled up garbage around the treehouse and claimed it as their base. Ash admires this determination, but Iris thinks he is worse than those children. The children named themselves as Trubbish Squad and want to protect Trubbish. Daniela sees they need to clear the junk, but Ash proposes he could talk to the children, as he played such games. Ash climbs up, but the children alert Trubbish, who releases a smell to distract Ash and Pikachu. The children push the junk and „imprison“ Ash and Pikachu.

Ash tells Iris he got trapped, who responds to get it together. The children intimidate Ash and Pikachu, using water pistols to soak them. Inside the treehouse, Ash is impressed by the layout. The children are amazed by Pikachu, though the leader with Ash's hat, Avery, orders them not to befriend the enemy. Ash replies he does not want to be the enemy, so Avery trusts him and pats Pikachu. Ash warns them Pikachu may zap them if it is pulled around, scaring the children for a second. Ash tells Pikachu can use Thunderbolt, though Pikachu uses that on Ash, electrocuting him. Trubbish tries to look cute, so Ash guesses it does look cute. Avery gives Ash the hat back, who puts it on his head.

Team Rocket waits and get approached by the agent (asking when does the train leave as a code), who gives them a suitcase containing a replica of a rock. The agent reports the boss is pleased by their work and leaves. Meanwhile, Ash advises the children to go apologize to the teacher. However, the children reply that they, nor Trubbish, did anything wrong, though the teacher took it back to the junkyard. Suddenly, Trubbish releases a smell. Though the children claim it does not stink, Ash yells out because of the smell. Everyone leaves the treehouse and Ash notices the Sunglasses Sandile that wanted to rescue the Pokémon.

Sandile sees Pikachu and uses Stone Edge, hitting Ash. The children throw the mud at Sandile, who retaliates using Stone Edge. Trubbish releases Toxic Spikes, dealing damage to Sandile.

However, Deerling bumps into the junk, which is going to collapse. Karen, Iris and Cilan go to rescue the children, while Daniela tells Avery to move away. Avery does not want to leave Trubbish, though a junk is falling on him.

Daniela saves Avery, while Ash and Pikachu are pushing the junk that Deerling bumped into. Trubbish uses Sludge, knocking away the junk that was about to fall, saving everyone. Later, the children apologize to Daniela, as they could've been hurt. Daniela apologizes too, as she did not listen to the children about Trubbish. Daniela decides to let Trubbish stay in the class, while Karen points out the happier Trubbish is, the less it will release the smell. The heroes are surprised as she didn't tell this before, but Karena replies one finds their own way to raise children or Pokémon. At night, the heroes clean up the junk, as Ash knows this is for the children.

Next day, Karena gives Ash an Egg to care for. Ash accepts the egg and promises he will have a battle with the children someday. The heroes leave the kindergarten, bidding everyone goodbye.
