<section begin="Synopsis"/>''Stopping for lunch alongside a beautiful lake, Ash decides to conduct some special training with Oshawott to teach it how to open its eyes underwater, while Iris keeps an eye on all the other Pokémon as they run off to play. During playtime, Scraggy encounters a group of Foongus and—as usual—greets them with a headbutt. The angry Foongus respond by shooting poison spores at our heroes’ Pokémon, making Pikachu and the others ill!''<section end="Synopsis"/>
While (still) on their way to Nimbasa City, Ash and co. decide to take a break. Ash teaches Oshawott to keep its eyes open underwater so it can use Aqua Jet properly. Later, Scraggy encounters some Foongus. The Foongus use PoisonPowder and all the Pokémon except Oshawott get poisoned. The only known cure are herbs grown at the bottom of a pond and it is up to Oshawott to save the day. But what can it do against a Palpitoad and a Stunfisk?
 
   
  +
''Iris agrees to watch over the poisoned Pokémon while Ash, Cilan, and Oshawott go to find the cure: a water plant called Remeyo Weed, which grows in tight crevices at the bottom of the nearby lake. Cilan waits on the shore while Ash guides Oshawott, who still won’t open its eyes, down to the lake bottom. Suddenly, they are attacked by a group of Tympole, commanded by a powerful Palpitoad! Oshawott finally manages to open its eyes so it can battle back, and quickly drives off the attackers.''
==Episode Plot==
 
The gang arrives at a lake. [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]] remembers his battle with [[Trip]] - [[Ash's Oshawott|Oshawott]] needs to open his eyes when attacking. To do that, he's going to spend his day with him. While [[Iris (anime)|Iris]] runs with other Pokémon, Ash and Oshawott take their breath and dive. Ash sees that Oshawott does not see while underwater, so they dive again, this time forcing Oshawott's eyes to open.
 
   
  +
''But the danger isn’t over. Palpitoad’s ally Stunfisk arrives and turns on Ash and Oshawott, driving them out of the water with its shocking attacks. Fortunately, Cilan is an accomplished fisherman, and he manages to catch Stunfisk—and when Palpitoad surfaces to come after Oshawott again, Ash catches it with the help of Oshawott’s Aqua Jet, now with much better aim!''
Iris is still training with the Pokémon, while [[Ash's Scraggy]] searches. He finds a bunch of [[Foongus]]. Scraggy attacks, but the Foongus evade and use PoisonPowder, poisoning Scraggy and other Pokémon. Cilan and Ash arrive, seeing how the Foongus poisoned everyone. Iris finds out that some herbs are required to produce an antidote to cure them. Cilan detects that some herbs are nearby, on the bottom of the lake, so Cilan, Ash and Oshawott go to find them.
 
   
  +
''With Palpitoad and Stunfisk out of the way, Oshawott has no trouble gathering the Remeyo Weed so Iris can make medicine for the ailing Pokémon. And so, our heroes have added two new Pokémon to the family, and Oshawott has conquered a major fear!''<ref>{{Cite|url = https://www.pokemon.com/us/animation/seasons/14/episode-32-facing-fear-with-eyes-wide-open/|entry = Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open! {{!}} Pokémon TV (pokemon.com)|title = The Official Pokémon Website {{!}} Pokemon.com|access-date = {{MDY|2|3|2024}}}}</ref>
Ash and Oshawott dive in, but a bunch of Tympole arrive and attack them. Oshawott does not open its eyes, so Ash attempts to persuade him. When the Tympoles make their final attack, Oshawott opens his eyes and destroys the attack with his Scalchop. The Tympoles flee. As Oshawott and Ash return to the surface, they are attacked by a Stunfisk. They warn Cilan of the Stunfisk, so Cilan uses his fishing stick and catches the Stunfisk, waving it in the air.
 
   
 
==Episode plot==
Ash and Oshawott go to get the herbs, and while they get the herbs and get out, a [[Palpitoad]] arrives. He attacks Oshawott, so Oshawott counterattacks with Aqua Jet. However, he misses, as his eyes aren't open. Palpitoad makes his final attack, but Oshawott opens his eyes and attacks Palpitoad, defeating it. Cilan knockes the Stunfisk down, so both trainers use their Pokeballs to catch them. They both succeed in catching them, so they hurry to Iris, who attends to the Pokémon. Iris makes the antidote, curing the poison from the Pokémon. The episode ends with Oshawott being happy and no longer afraid to use Aqua Jet.
 
  +
The heroes reach a lake. As [[Cilan (anime)|Cilan]] and [[Iris (anime)|Iris]] admire the beauty of the lake, Ash remembers Trip showing him Oshawott's eyes were closed when using Aqua Jet. Ash decides to have some special training, and, along with Cilan, leave their Pokémon to Iris to watch over. Ash sends Oshawott, deciding to have some special training. As Iris entertains the Pokémon, Ash goes in the water with Oshawott, telling him they will train to open their eyes underwater. Oshawott is not pleased, so Ash holds him and dives. However, he sees that Oshawott cannot open his eyes underwater. They repeat this once more, though Oshawott still has his eyes closed. Ash opens them, causing Oshawott to blast Ash out of water using Water Gun.
  +
  +
Meanwhile, Iris entertains the Pokémon with a ball game. Emolga throws the ball to Snivy fast, who uses Vine Whip to bounce the ball away. Dwebble raises its arms, causing it to pierce the ball. Scraggy comes to a bush and sees a bunch of Pokémon, who are not pleased by his appearance. Scraggy headbutts them, causing the Pokémon to be angry. Cilan comes to Iris for lunch, but Iris tells all everyone is are running towards Scraggy, who gets hit. The Pokémon make a formation and release poisonous spores, affecting everyone. Iris and Cilan call Ash, reporting a bunch of Foongus poisoned every Pokémon. While the Foongus move away, Cilan sees there is not a Pokémon Center around for miles. Iris hopes there is some Remeyo Weed around, for it can serve as an antidote. Cilan checks and sees there is some Remeyo Weed under water. Ash decides to go after it. Cilan joins him, while Iris goes to watch over the Pokémon.
  +
  +
Ash and Cilan walk to a lake. Cilan reads Remeyo Weed grows under the rocks, so Ash sees he should just dive and get it. Cilan tells it is not easy, as the crevices the weed grows in is quite tiny. Ash decides Oshawott should gather them, small enough to fit inside the crevice. Cilan reminds Ash Oshawott won't open his eyes underwater, but Ash thinks he should pull Oshawott's ears to coordinate him around. Ash jumps with Oshawott and swims. Iris makes some medicine, squishing an Oran Berry to make the Pokémon feel better until the weed is retrieved. As Ash and Oshawott dive, a Palpitoad orders some Pokémon around, wanting to attack Ash and Oshawott. Ash spots a crevice and detects some Remeyo Weed inside. However, the Pokémon Palpitoad sent attack, so Ash dodges, but Oshawott gets hit. Ash orders Oshawott to get away, but Oshawott cannot open his eyes. Cilan sees there is some ruckus underwater.
  +
  +
Oshawott uses Razor Shell, though he cannot see and attacks randomly. Oshawott opens his eyes a bit, but still gets hit by the Pokémon. The Pokémon use Bubble beam, though Oshawott opens his eyes and pierces the bubbles. Oshawott uses Razor Shell, causing these Pokémon, Tympole, to flee. Palpitoad is not pleased and orders a new Pokémon to attack Ash and Oshawott. The Pokémon electrocutes Ash and Oshawott, who jump out to the land. Cilan sees the Pokémon is a Stunfisk, who dives. Cilan decides to take care of the problem, using a rod to fish out Stunfisk. Stunfisk takes the bait, so Cilan fishes Stunfisk out, though the Palpitoad appears in front of Ash and Cilan. Palpitoad uses Mud Shot, followed with Stunfisk's Mud Bomb.
  +
  +
Cilan sees they are friends, so leaves Ash to battle Palpitoad, while Cilan swings Stunfisk around. Oshawott gets intimidated by Palpitoad, but Ash reminds Oshawott the others are counting on him to get the Remeyo Weed. Oshawott uses Water Gun, but gets hit by Palpitoad's Hydro Pump. Oshawott uses Razor Shell, but gets stopped by Palpitoad's Supersonic, then gets hit by Mud Shot. Ash decides to catch Palpitoad, so has Oshawott use Aqua Jet, who misses, for he has his eyes closed. Ash tells Oshawott to open his eyes, for Palpitoad used Mud Shot. Oshawott remembers piercing the Bubblebeam, so opens his eyes and dodges Mud Shot, then knocks Palpitoad using Aqua Jet. Cilan tosses Stunfisk onto the ground. Using the Poké Balls, Ash and Cilan catch Palpitoad and Stunfisk. Cilan tells Ash's Poké Ball is sealed, for he has six Pokémon already in his team.
  +
  +
Ash tells Oshawott to collect the Remeyo Weed. Oshawott dives and takes the Weed. Later, Iris made the antidote from the Remeyo Weed and gives it to everyone, curing them from the poison. Later, the Pokémon are healthy again. Ash praises Oshawott, while the Pokémon thank Oshawott for retrieving the Weed.

Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open! (Japanese: ガマダル、マッギョ!水辺の戦い!!, HepburnPalpitoad, Stunfisk! Battle at the Waterfront!!) is the 34th episode of Pokémon: Black & White.

Synopsis

Stopping for lunch alongside a beautiful lake, Ash decides to conduct some special training with Oshawott to teach it how to open its eyes underwater, while Iris keeps an eye on all the other Pokémon as they run off to play. During playtime, Scraggy encounters a group of Foongus and—as usual—greets them with a headbutt. The angry Foongus respond by shooting poison spores at our heroes’ Pokémon, making Pikachu and the others ill!

Iris agrees to watch over the poisoned Pokémon while Ash, Cilan, and Oshawott go to find the cure: a water plant called Remeyo Weed, which grows in tight crevices at the bottom of the nearby lake. Cilan waits on the shore while Ash guides Oshawott, who still won’t open its eyes, down to the lake bottom. Suddenly, they are attacked by a group of Tympole, commanded by a powerful Palpitoad! Oshawott finally manages to open its eyes so it can battle back, and quickly drives off the attackers.

But the danger isn’t over. Palpitoad’s ally Stunfisk arrives and turns on Ash and Oshawott, driving them out of the water with its shocking attacks. Fortunately, Cilan is an accomplished fisherman, and he manages to catch Stunfisk—and when Palpitoad surfaces to come after Oshawott again, Ash catches it with the help of Oshawott’s Aqua Jet, now with much better aim!

With Palpitoad and Stunfisk out of the way, Oshawott has no trouble gathering the Remeyo Weed so Iris can make medicine for the ailing Pokémon. And so, our heroes have added two new Pokémon to the family, and Oshawott has conquered a major fear![1]

Episode plot

The heroes reach a lake. As Cilan and Iris admire the beauty of the lake, Ash remembers Trip showing him Oshawott's eyes were closed when using Aqua Jet. Ash decides to have some special training, and, along with Cilan, leave their Pokémon to Iris to watch over. Ash sends Oshawott, deciding to have some special training. As Iris entertains the Pokémon, Ash goes in the water with Oshawott, telling him they will train to open their eyes underwater. Oshawott is not pleased, so Ash holds him and dives. However, he sees that Oshawott cannot open his eyes underwater. They repeat this once more, though Oshawott still has his eyes closed. Ash opens them, causing Oshawott to blast Ash out of water using Water Gun.

Meanwhile, Iris entertains the Pokémon with a ball game. Emolga throws the ball to Snivy fast, who uses Vine Whip to bounce the ball away. Dwebble raises its arms, causing it to pierce the ball. Scraggy comes to a bush and sees a bunch of Pokémon, who are not pleased by his appearance. Scraggy headbutts them, causing the Pokémon to be angry. Cilan comes to Iris for lunch, but Iris tells all everyone is are running towards Scraggy, who gets hit. The Pokémon make a formation and release poisonous spores, affecting everyone. Iris and Cilan call Ash, reporting a bunch of Foongus poisoned every Pokémon. While the Foongus move away, Cilan sees there is not a Pokémon Center around for miles. Iris hopes there is some Remeyo Weed around, for it can serve as an antidote. Cilan checks and sees there is some Remeyo Weed under water. Ash decides to go after it. Cilan joins him, while Iris goes to watch over the Pokémon.

Ash and Cilan walk to a lake. Cilan reads Remeyo Weed grows under the rocks, so Ash sees he should just dive and get it. Cilan tells it is not easy, as the crevices the weed grows in is quite tiny. Ash decides Oshawott should gather them, small enough to fit inside the crevice.

Cilan tosses Stunfisk onto the ground. Using the Poké Balls, Ash and Cilan catch Palpitoad and Stunfisk. Cilan tells Ash's Poké Ball is sealed, for he has six Pokémon already in his team.

Ash tells Oshawott to collect the Remeyo Weed. Oshawott dives and takes the Weed. Later, Iris made the antidote from the Remeyo Weed and gives it to everyone, curing them from the poison. Later, the Pokémon are healthy again. Ash praises Oshawott, while the Pokémon thank Oshawott for retrieving the Weed.
