Synopsis

Template:Incomplete synopsis After Ash's Pokémon recover, Whitney takes the group to spend a day at her uncle's dairy. But Ash only has one thing on his mind: How can he defeat her seemingly unstoppable Miltank? Everyone is in the farmhouse enjoying a cool glass of milk, as Jessie, James and Meowth take their chances at raiding the pantry for all the dairy produce they can get their hands on. However they are soon discovered by Whitney, and, grabbing all the food they can carry, they run off. Ash gives chase, and Pikachu attacks the Rockets, causing them to drop the stolen food, which is caught by Brock, Misty and Milton. Jessie and James send out Arbok and Weezing, and Whitney sends out Miltank. Miltank hits the Rockets with a Rollout and sends them flying.

Later the group are brushing the farm's Miltank, but the one Ash is brushing decides to walk away. Ash grabs its tail, and it responds by kicking him into a fence. Afterwards, Milton shows the group the milking machine.

As Whitney is practicing her Miltank's Rollout, Ash recalls how it made short work of his Pokémon in their earlier Gym battle. Whitney's training is cut short, however, by Team Rocket, who return in a giant rolling barrel. They recite their motto, and use arms which sprout from the ends of the barrel to grab Miltank and Pikachu as the group run away from the barrel, which appears to have its own Rollout attack. Ash turns to face the barrel, and sends out Cyndaquil, which attacks with Skull Bash, stopping the advance. Ash then uses Totodile's Water Gun to carve trenches in the hill, which cause the barrel to bounce and shake so violently that James snaps the control levers, dropping Miltank and Pikachu. Pikachu launches a Thundershock which causes the barrel to explode, sending Team Rocket flying.

Ash and Whitney agree to another battle, with Ash's Cyndaquil, Totodile and Pikachu against Whitney's Miltank. Ash starts with Cyndaquil, but it is quickly defeated by Miltank's Rollout. Next Ash uses Totodile, and again has it use Water Gun to dig trenches in the ground. Totodile then launches itself into the air with another Water Gun, and lands on top of Miltank. However Whitney orders Miltank to shake it off, and it does, before hitting it with its Rollout. Ash returns Totodile to its Poké Ball before it even hits the ground. Finally, Ash sends out Pikachu, and orders it to use Agility. Pikachu's speed of moving around causes Miltank to hit some of the trenches in its attempts to attack. As Miltank comes round for another attack, Pikachu positions itself in the bottom of one of the trenches, and as Miltank rolls over the top, Pikachu tosses it into the air. Pikachu uses ThunderShock on the airborne Miltank, and wins the match. Whitney offers Ash the Plain Badge and he is surprised, as he has not won an even battle against her, but Milton says something to him, and he accepts it.
