==Synopsis==
==Blurb==
On their way to [[Icirrus City]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} notice the [[Celestial Tower]] and [[Stephan]] runs into them. {{an|Cilan}} asks Stephan whether he was heading to {{ci|Mistralton}} City for a Gym battle and Stephan says that he has come for the Bell of Wishes Festival that is held at the Celestial Tower. Stephan explains that during the festival they have to clear various obstacles and the first person to reach the top of the tower wins. By winning the competition, the winner rings the Bell of Wishes to make a wish that is guaranteed to come true. Cilan has doubts that that just ringing a bell guarantees that a wish will come true. Everyone decides to enter the competition.
<!--https://www.pokemon.com/us/animation/seasons/15/episode-21-climbing-the-tower-of-success/-->
<i>On the road following Ash’s victorious Gym Battle against Gym Leader Skyla, our heroes run into their old friend Stephan, who tells them about the Wishing Bell Festival, a competition where teams of Trainers and Pokémon compete for the opportunity to climb Mistralton Tower and ring the Wishing Bell. The story goes that whoever rings the bell will have all their wishes come true.


Stephan explains that they have to choose a partner Pokémon to help them in the competition. Cilan chooses {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}, {{an|Iris}} chooses {{TP|Iris|Axew}}, and Stephan chooses {{TP|Stephan|Sawk}} to be their partners. Ash mentions that it has been awhile since he has last seen Sawk and scans him with his Pokédex. [[Mile]] arrives and asks everyone whether they are participating in the competition. Stephan mentions that Mile is the hos of the festival. Iris and Cilan explain to Stephan that Mile is the former {{gy|Mistralton}} Gym Leader, and the grandfather of the current Gym Leader [[Skyla]]. Mile explains to all of the competitors what the goal is of the competition. He explains that the first contest is a yes/no quiz, where the competitors who think the answer is correct move to the sign with the circle on it, and the competitors who think the answer is no move to the sign with a cross on it. The first question is whether a {{type|Fire}}, {{type|Grass}}, and {{type|Rock}} are the types of the starter Pokémon that beginning Trainers choose to start their journey. Cilan believes the question is very easy, but Stephan on the other hand believes that the answer is yes and must be corrected by Cilan and Iris. The correct answer is no and only a few competitors get the answer wrong. Mile explains that {{t|Water}}, Fire, and Grass are the types to choose from for beginning Trainers. Stephan brags that nobody would get the question wrong, but Iris corrects him and says that he almost got the question wrong. The second question is whether you may eat {{ci|Castelia}} Ice Cream on Tuesdays. Ash recalls that they tried to get Castelia Ice Cream but the shop was closed the day they went. Stephan guesses that the answer is Wednesdays, but he was only guessing and doesn't really know. Cilan in a long explanation states that as a connoisseur he always remember and that the answer is Tuesdays. Iris tells Cilan that the long explanation was not necessary. They decide that the answer is yes and move to the sign with a circle on it. Only half of the remaining competitors get the answer correct. The final question is whether Mile prefers [[Officer Jenny]] over [[Nurse Joy]]. Ash and his friends are stumped as to what the answer could be. [[Reiji]], who claims to be a {{tc|Psychic}} tells everyone that he knows the answer because he is a psychic. Ash scans {{p|Elgyem}} with his Pokédex. Reiji demonstrates his psychic powers by guessing that Ash is a Pokémon Trainer which Iris is skeptical that it demonstrates his powers because anyone could figure out that Ash is a Pokémon Trainer. Mile announces that there is only ten seconds left to answer, so everyone decides to let Reiji tell them the answer. Reiji uses his psychic powers and determines that Officer Jenny is the answer which would mean that the answer is yes. Before Mile could reveal the answer, Elgyem uses its powers to change Mile's mind about what the answer is while Cilan notices what happened. Mile tells everyone that the answer is yes, and only a few competitors answer the question correctly. Reiji again claims that it proves he is a psychic, but Iris says that it was probably a coincidence since it was a 50 percent chance of being correct.
Our heroes happily discover that Skyla’s grandfather, their friend Miles, runs the festival. Many Trainers and their Pokémon are competing in the challenge, but the field is eventually narrowed down to Ash and Pikachu versus Stephan and Sawk. With one final heroic push, Stephan and Sawk are declared the winners!


Mile explains to everyone that the next contest is a scavenger hunt where the competitors must choose a random piece of paper that is on the ground, locate the item listed, and deliver it to the staff members at the goal within five minutes. Ash must find a {{evostone|Thunderstone}}, Iris a [[Super Rod]], Cilan a [[Wonder Launcher]], Stephan a [[Black Belt]], and Reiji a [[TwistedSpoon]]. Iris asks Cilan for his Super Rod and Cilan gives a long speech about the rod before handing it to Iris. Stephan attempts to borrow Sawk's Black Belt, but Sawk runs away from him. Reiji was able to obtain a spoon easily and bends it with Elgyem's help even though he says that he is using psychic powers to do so. While asking people if they have a Thunderstone, someone says to Ash that he has one and tosses it at Pikachu. Ash catches the Thunderstone before it could hit and [[evolution|evolve]] Pikachu. With one minute left, Ash and his friends make it to the staff members prior to the time expiring. A few other competitors made it in time as well with a [[Fire Gem]], a [[Repel]], and a melting ice which was supposed to be a [[NeverMeltIce]] instead.
After Stephan rings the bell and makes his wish, Iris asks him what he wished for. His reply? “I wished everyone would pronounce my name right....” But he also wished he could win the upcoming Clubsplosion Battle Competition, sponsored by the Pokémon Battle Club and Don George!</i>


Mile explains that the next contest is for competitors and their Pokémon to get into a tub in the lake, and make their way to the goal with the help of their Pokémon. He explains that only the first five competitors may make it to the next contest. Cilan has Pansage paddle like he is using {{m|Dig}} to help them keep moving. Ash has Pikachu use his tail like a paddle and propel them forward. Iris has Axew use {{m|Dragon Rage}} to help them keep moving. Elgyem uses {{m|Psychic}} while Reiji uses his psychic powers to move them to the goal in first place. Cilan reaches the goal in second place, Ash in third place, and Iris in fourth place. With only one spot remaining, Stephan and Sawk jump out of the tub to use {{m|Low Sweep}} and propel all the way to the goal in fifth place.  
==Plot==
On their way to [[Icirrus City]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} notice the [[Mistralton Tower]], and [[Stephan]] runs into them. {{an|Cilan}} asks Stephan whether he was heading to [[Mistralton City]] for a [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} and Stephan says that he has come for the Wishing Bell Festival that is held at the Mistralton Tower. Stephan explains that during the festival they have to clear various obstacles and the first person to reach the top of the tower wins. After winning the competition, the winner rings the Wishing Bell to make a wish that is guaranteed to come true. Cilan has doubts that just ringing a bell guarantees that a wish will come true. Everyone decides to enter the competition.


Mile explains that the next contest is the imitation competition where the competitors must use wigs and costumes to dress up and disguise themselves as the well-known person they are given with ten minutes. Ash and Pikachu must dress up as [[Alder]] and {{p|Bouffalant}}, Iris and Axew must dress up as [[Professor Juniper]] and {{p|Darumaka}}, Cilan and Pansage must dress up as [[Elesa]] and {{p|Emolga}}, Stephan an Sawk must dress up as Nurse Joy and {{p|Audino}}, and Reiji and Elgyem must dress up as Officer Jenny and {{p|Herdier}}. Everyone has no trouble finding the wigs and costumes that they need to dress up. In their disguises, Ash and Pikachu look very close to Alder and Bouffalant. Ash recites that one must enjoy life, laughs, and Pikachu imitates a Bouffalant. Mile lets them pass on to the next contest. Iris and Darumaka look very close to Professor Juniper and Darumaka. Iris says "oh my oh my" in her Juniper voice, while Axew imitates Darumaka in its immovable position. Mile lets them pass on to the next contest. Stephan and Sawk look very scary in their Nurse Joy and Audino costumes. Stephan says "welcome to the Pokémon Center", while Sawk imitates Audino. Mile tells them that they narrowly pass to the next contest. Reiji and Elgyem don't dress up at all and use Psychic powers to make Mile think they are dressed up as Officer Jenny and Herdier. Mile lets them pass on to the next contest. Cilan and Pansage look good dressed up as Elesa and Emolga. Cilan recites one of Elesa's lines, and Pansage floats around to act like Emolga. They have to try again two more times because Mile says that they are doing it wrong. Time runs out and Mile refuses to let them pass on to the next contest, explaining that he is really picky about Elesa since he is a big fan of hers.  
Stephan explains that they have to choose a partner Pokémon to help them in the competition. Cilan chooses {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}, {{an|Iris}} chooses {{TP|Iris|Axew}}, and Stephan chooses {{TP|Stephan|Sawk}} to be their partners. Ash mentions that it has been a while since he has last seen Sawk and scans him with his Pokédex. {{an|Miles}} arrives and asks everyone whether they are participating in the competition. Stephan mentions that Miles is the host of the festival. Iris and Cilan explain to Stephan that Miles is the former {{gy|Mistralton}} [[Gym Leader]], and the grandfather of the current Gym Leader [[Skyla]]. Miles explains to all of the competitors what the goal is of the competition. He explains that the first contest is a true-or-false quiz, where the competitors who think the answer is true move to the sign with the circle on it, and the competitors who think the answer is false move to the sign with a cross on it.


Mile explains that the next contest is a race through a forest that is full of different trials, with Pokémon that are ready to attack invaders and that only three competitors may move on to the next contest. A {{p|Lampent}} attacks everyone with {{m|Inferno}}. A female {{p|Frillish}} then attacks Reiji with {{m|Hydro Pump}} after coming out of a lake. Elgyem uses {{m|Psybeam}} to deflect the attack. {{p|Chandelure}} attacks Iris with Inferno to knock her off of a swinging vine. Iris tries to run away but Chandelure uses {{m|Confuse Ray}} to {{status|confuse}} her. Iris thinks that she won the race and begins to celebrate. Reiji arrives at the goal in first place, and Ash and Stephan arrive at the same time for second and third place. They look over to see that Iris is still celebrating a win while surrounded by Chandelure, a few {{p|Patrat}}, and a few {{p|Watchog}} when she really failed to make it to the next contest.  
The first question is whether a {{type|Fire}}, a {{type|Grass}}, and a {{type|Rock}} are the types of the [[first partner Pokémon]] that beginning Trainers may choose to start their journey. Cilan believes the question is very easy, but Stephan on the other hand believes that the answer is true and must be corrected by Ash and Iris. The correct answer is false and only a few competitors get the answer wrong. Miles explains that {{t|Water}}, Fire, and Grass are the types to choose from for beginning Trainers. Stephan brags that nobody would get the question wrong, but Iris corrects him and says that he almost got the question wrong.


Mile explains that the final contest of the festival is a race to the top of the Celestial Tower. Competitors must bring lit candles that look like {{p|Litwick}} with them to the top without the flame going out while avoiding attacks by various Pokémon in the tower, and the first competitor to reach the top wins. Mile advises them to hurry while being slow and careful. A few male Frillish attack everyone with Water Gun and miss their flames. As they are going further up the stairs, they start to become very tired. Some female and male Frillish use {{m|Ice Beam}} to freeze the stairs to make it more difficult for the competitors to keep going. Elgyem uses Psychic to help Reiji avoid the slippery stairs to reach the top. Everyone else slowly and carefully moves up the slippery stairs.  
The second question is whether one may eat [[Casteliacone]]s only on {{DL|Days of the week|Tuesday}}s. Ash recalls that they tried to get Casteliacones [[BW022|earlier]], but the shop was closed the day they went. Stephan guesses that the answer is {{DL|Days of the week|Wednesday}}s, but admits that he's only guessing and doesn't really know. Cilan takes a brief trip down memory lane and remembers having eaten a Casteliacone on a Tuesday. They decide that the answer is true and move to the sign with a circle on it. Only half of the remaining competitors get the answer correct.


Once they reach the roof, Mile explains {{p|Pidove}} are the last obstacle to reach the finish line. The Pidove use {{m|Gust}} to try and blow away their candles. Ash covers up the flame, Stephan uses Sawk to protect the flame, and Reiji has Elgyem use {{m|Light Screen}} to block the Pidove's attacks. The Pidove use {{m|Air Slash}} and eventually break through the Light Screen and extinguish the flame on Reiji's candle. Ash and Stephan race to the finish line while Pikachu and Sawk block the Pidove's attacks. The candle that Stephan is holding extinguishes Ash's flame which allows Stephan to win the race. Stephan is announced as the winner, but they call him by a completely different name. A real Litwick is revealed to be what Stephan was racing with the whole time. Stephan rings the bell to make a wish.  
The final question is whether Miles prefers [[Officer Jenny]] over [[Nurse Joy]]. Ash and his friends are stumped as to what the answer could be. [[Ricky]], who claims to be a {{tc|Psychic}}, tells everyone that he knows the answer because he is a psychic. Ash scans {{p|Elgyem}} with his Pokédex. Ricky demonstrates his psychic powers by guessing that Ash is a Pokémon Trainer which Iris is skeptical that it demonstrates his powers because anyone could figure out that Ash is a Pokémon Trainer. Miles announces that there are only ten seconds left to answer, so everyone decides to let Ricky tell them the answer. Ricky uses his psychic powers and determines that Officer Jenny is the answer which would mean that the answer is true. Before Miles can reveal the answer, Elgyem uses its powers to change Miles's mind about what the answer is while Cilan notices what happened. Miles tells everyone that the answer is true, and only a few competitors answer the question correctly. Ricky again claims that it proves he is a psychic, but Iris says that it was probably a coincidence since there was a 50 percent chance of being correct.


Ash and his friends congratulate Stephan on his win and ask what he wished for. Stephan tells them that his wish was to win the [[Clubsplosion]]. Stephan explains that the Clubsplosion is a battle tournament hosted by [[Don George]] of the [[Battle Club]].
Miles explains to everyone that the next contest is a scavenger hunt where the competitors must choose a random piece of paper that is on the ground, locate the item listed, and deliver it to the staff members at the goal within five minutes. Ash must find a [[Thunder Stone]], Iris a [[Super Rod]], Cilan a [[Wonder Launcher]], Stephan a {{i|Black Belt}}, and Ricky a [[Twisted Spoon]]. Iris asks Cilan for his Super Rod and Cilan gives a long speech about the rod before handing it to Iris. Stephan attempts to borrow Sawk's Black Belt, but Sawk runs away from him. Ricky is able to obtain a spoon easily and bends it with Elgyem's help even though he says that he is using psychic powers to do so. While asking people if they have a Thunder Stone, someone says to Ash that he has one and tosses it at Pikachu. Ash catches the Thunder Stone before it can make contact and [[evolution|evolve]] Pikachu. With one minute left, Ash and his friends make it to the staff members prior to the time expiring. A few other competitors made it in time as well with a [[Fire Gem]], a [[Max Repel]], and a piece of melting ice that was supposed to be a piece of [[Never-Melt Ice]] instead.
 
Miles explains that the next contest is for competitors and their Pokémon to get into a tub in the lake, and make their way to the goal with the help of their Pokémon. He explains that only the first five competitors may make it to the next contest. Cilan has Pansage paddle like he is using {{m|Dig}} to help them keep moving. Ash has Pikachu use his tail like a paddle and propel them forward. Iris has Axew use {{m|Dragon Rage}} to help them keep moving.

With only one spot remaining, Stephan and Sawk jump out of the tub to use {{m|Low Sweep}} and propel all the way to the goal in fifth place.
 
Miles explains that the next contest is the imitation competition where the competitors must use wigs and costumes to dress up and disguise themselves as the well-known person they are given within ten minutes. Ash and Pikachu must dress up as [[Alder]] and {{p|Bouffalant}}, Iris and Axew must dress up as [[Professor Juniper]] and {{p|Darumaka}}, Cilan and Pansage must dress up as [[Elesa]] and {{p|Emolga}}, Stephan and Sawk must dress up as Nurse Joy and {{p|Audino}}, and Ricky and Elgyem must dress up as Officer Jenny and {{p|Herdier}}. Everyone has no trouble finding the wigs and costumes that they need to dress up. In their disguises, Ash and Pikachu resemble Alder and Bouffalant, and Miles lets them pass on to the next contest. Iris and Darumaka closely resemble Professor Juniper and Darumaka, so Miles lets them pass on to the next contest. Stephan and Sawk, however, look very scary in their Nurse Joy and Audino costumes, though Miles tells them that they narrowly pass to the next contest. Ricky and Elgyem don't dress up at all and use Psychic powers to make Miles think they are dressed up as Officer Jenny and Herdier, allowing them to pass on to the next contest. Cilan and Pansage dress up as Elesa and Emolga, but Miles refuses to let them pass on to the next contest, explaining that he is really picky about Elesa since he is a big fan of hers.

Ash and his friends congratulate Stephan on his win and ask what he wished for. Stephan tells them that his wishes were for everyone to say his name the right way and to win the [[Clubsplosion]], and explains that the Clubsplosion is a battle tournament hosted by [[Don George]] of the [[Battle Club]].
