A.J. was the [[character of the day]] in ''[[EP008|The Path to the Pokémon League]]''.


In this episode, {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} were on the way to Vermilion City, when they heard about a local Trainer who was undefeated. Ash, eager to challenge this Trainer, went to A.J.'s Gym and saw a sign above it announcing that A.J. had been undefeated through 98 matches. A.J. returned to the Gym after catching some wild Pokémon. Ash challenged him to battle the number 99.

Ash begins to say about a person with 98 victories but without a Gym Badge. A.J. says that he wasn't planning on challenging a Gym Leader until he had 100 wins in a row. Ash bragged about the two Badges he had at the time just with ten victories, and A.J. insulted him and said he must've gotten them from weak Gym Leaders, which angered Brock and Misty. A.J. defeated Ash with his {{p|Sandshrew}} without much effort, causing Ash to complain and accuse A.J. of cheating.

As the group was about to leave, they looked inside the Gym, and they saw A.J. using a whip to send his Sandshrew diving into a pool. Ash attacked A.J., thinking that he was torturing his Pokémon. A.J. then explained that he was strengthening his Sandshrew's resistance against water. Sandshrew and all of A.J.'s other Pokémon were wearing {{DL|EV-enhancing item|Macho Brace}}s to intensify their strength. He also had all of his Pokémon exercise is rigorous routines. Ash complained about A.J. treating his Pokémon too harshly, and asks Brock and Misty to back him up. However, instead Brock compliments A.J. on the specialized {{Pkmn|food}} he prepares for his Pokémon.

[[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} then tried to steal [[Ash's Pikachu]], but ended up accidentally taking Sandshrew instead. Not knowing what had happened, Ash guessed that Sandshrew had ran away, and offered A.J.'s other Pokémon spots on his [[party|team]]. They ignored him. Sandshrew escaped from {{TRT}} by using {{m|Dig}}, accidentally bringing Meowth along with him. After A.J.'s Sandshrew came back, he challenged Team Rocket to a battle, and his Sandshrew defeated Team Rocket, winning A.J. the final victory needed to set off and collect Gym Badges.

|desc=A.J.'s {{p|Sandshrew}}'s appearance was in ''[[EP008|The Path to the Pokémon League]]'' where {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} heard from a {{pkmn|Trainer}} about a really powerful [[Gym]] in which the leader was undefeated. Ash decided to challenge A.J. after hearing this. A.J had a battle with Ash and sent out his {{AP|Pidgeotto}}, which was easily defeated by Sandshrew. Next Ash called out his {{AP|Butterfree}} and went for a {{m|Stun Spore}}. A.J. whipped Sandshrew and told it to use {{m|Dig}}, avoiding Butterfree's Stun Spore. It jumped out and defeated Butterfree. Ash wanted {{AP|Pikachu}} to battle, but it refused, giving A.J. the win.

It was then seen training in A.J.'s Gym wearing what A.J. called a "strength intensifier" and using the pool. It was then accidentally captured by {{TRT}} but was able to make its way back using Dig. It then had a battle against Team Rocket with {{TP|James|Koffing}} and {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}}. It was able to dodge Koffing and entangle Ekans, then finished them off by using {{m|Fissure}}.
