Friend and Foe Alike (Japanese: セキエイスタジアム！VSヒロシ！ Sekiei Stadium! VS Hiroshi!) is the 79th episode of the Pokémon anime. It was first broadcast in Japan on January 14, 1999 and in the United States on November 27, 1999.
Synopsis
After foiling one of Team Rocket's heists in the last episode, Ash and Ritchie are battling against each other in the round five battle! Brock, Misty and Nurse Joy think Ash is lucky he gets to battle a friend, and he and Ritchie vow to make it the best battle they've had. Unfortunately for Ash, due to Team Rocket's sneaky tricks, he becomes distracted on the way to the next battle. Team Rocket kidnaps Ash and demand that he either surrenders his Pikachu to them or be unable to battle Ritchie in Round five. Ash is trapped in the back of a truck, but manages to escape by flooding the entire truck with Squirtle, and escapes when the truck runs over. Team Rocket returns, but Ash uses his Bulbasaur to defeat them. They return yet again, with bikes. Pikachu uses Thunder Wave to paralyze them. They return a final time by hooking a crane on the bike Ash stole from them, and lifting him into the air. Ash takes out Pidgeotto to fly Pikachu up into their air balloon, where Pikachu uses Thunderbolt on them, and they drop into the forest. Ash orders Pidgeotto to fly the Rocket Air Balloon to the Pokémon stadium.
Meanwhile, Ritchie and everyone else is awaiting Ash's arrival. Hours past and the coach is about to disqualify Ash, but Ritchie convinces him to extend the time for only ten more minutes. Misty, Brock, Delia and Professor Oak are beginning to worry, but are proud of Ritchie. Ash arrives at the last second, but Pidgeotto is exhausted from flying the entire Balloon to the stadium.
The battle between Ash and Ritchie finally begins with Ash using Squirtle and Ritchie using Happy. Happy defeats Squirtle easily with Sleep Powder, and the ringer counts this as an elimination. Ash is truly surprised to see that Pikachu has enough energy to battle. Pikachu is at a disadvantage due to his lack of energy, but wins by putting the rest of his power into one Thunder. Ritchie sends out Zippo, who uses multiple Flamethrowers that Pikachu dodges. Pikachu is finally completely out of energy, and Zippo uses Tackle, finally beating Pikachu. Ash is left with only one Pokémon to use. Pidgeotto is too tired out, and Bulbasaur will be at a disadvantage against a Fire-type. Ash then realizes he only has one choice, and it's a very risky one. He uses this one choice and sends out the disobedient Charizard. Everyone is shocked by Ash's choice, especially Brock and Misty, but to thier surprise, Charizard battles after he is almost hit by Zippo's Flamethrower, by shooting a Flamethrower of his own. Ritchie recalls Zippo, which immediately eliminates him. Ritchie sends out Sparky, who is ready for anything. Charizard, however, stomps on the ground twice, then uses Whirlwind, but falls asleep, and even after Ash begins to beg, he doesn't budge, and is eliminated, giving Ritchie the victory. Ash is very sad, but calms down and congratulates Ritchie, showing they still have a true friendship.
