He introduced his name, and explained that he came to challenge the shihan of the dojo to a Pokémon battle.

Shiro

Shiro (Japanese: ジロウ Jirō) is a character of the day in the Pokémon anime who appeared in Two Hits and a Miss.

Shiro showed up at Kenzo's dojo one day, stating that he wanted to battle and adding that he also wanted to be a shihan. He said his name, and explained that he came to challenge the shihan of the dojo to a Pokémon battle. Shiro, as explained by an angered Chigusa, is a Pokémon Trainer which fighting dojos call a "Dojo Destroyer". When a Dojo Destroyer defeats the shihans, he or she wins the plaques that hang in front of their dojos. At that point, Shiro possessed eleven plaques and sought an even dozen. His purpose was that he planned on opening his own Fighting-type Pokémon dojo back home, and he wanted his students’ respect.

The shihan of the Dojo Shiro visited, Kenzo, was too old to battle, however. Kenzo did not want his granddaughter Chigusa to be the next shihan, but because he could not battle himself, he allowed her to battle Shiro. She eventually succeeded defeating Shiro by using her Hitmontop. Shiro then stated to Kenzo that he saw why his dojo possessed such an excellent reputation, with Kenzo replying that he was gracious in defeat.
