== Synopsis ==
{{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{an|Brock}} take a break by the lake while Misty heads deeper into the forest with {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}. As Misty picks the local flora, Togepi wanders over to a very strange looking bush, it appears to have legs…spider legs! Summoned by Misty’s shrieks, Ash and Brock discover an {{p|Ariados}} in the bush. Just then, the Ariados's apparent trainer reveals herself. The trainer turns out to be Aya, the sister of Koga, Fuschia City's Gym Leader, last scene in ''"[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]"''. She explains she’s training with her Ariados to learn the special art of Pokémon Jujitsu (a form of Martial Arts). Under the guidance of a Pokemon tutor, the Sensei of a Dojo, who is the true owner of Ariados, she is trying to perfect her skills in Pokémon Jujitsu alongide her Venonat. Accepting an invitation from the Sensei, the gang joins her for a day at the Pokémon Jujitsu Academy. Donning special uniforms, red-colored for battle technique studies, which Ash chooses, yellow-colored for the technical class, which Brock chooses, and blue-colored for beauty-classes, which Misty is assigned. Initially reluctant to attend a beauty class, she swiftly changes her mind when told that the beauty treatments taught can make one look like a "movie star". To her horror, the treatment involves [[Spinarak|Spinarak]] webbing is applied to the face as a moisturizer. Meanwhile, Brock and his Pineco impress the class and it's teacher with their highly synchronized battle demonstration. In Ash's class, he and Aya have a rematch of their battle from ''"[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]"''. Ash uses his Bulbsaur against Aya's Venonat, and initiatlly the battle follows the same pattern as their previous match, with Bulbasaur using his powerful Leech Seed attack to simultaneously trap and drain Venonat's energy. However, Venonat shrugs off the leech seed and nearly wins the battle with a supersonic-tackle combination. Demonstrating Ash and his Pokemon's ingenuity and understanding of each other, Bulbasaur uses his vinewhips to push himself high into the air, and then at Ash's prompting, bodyslams Venonat, winning the match. Meanwhile, Team Rocket observes the battle and the amount of rare Pokemon present at the center, and plots to steal the Pokémon. Later, when everyone is going to sleep, Pikachu hears a noise outside the center, so Ash goes to investigate, finding Aya training. They contemplate their future's as trainers, until Venonat notices a strange occurrence. They find Pokéballs of most of the trainers at the center to be stolen, moments later, Team Rocket unveils themselves as the thieves. They grab Pikachu and trap him in a metal cage (preventing the effectiveness of his electric attacks). As they take flight in their balloon, the Sensei utilizes his glider to intercept Team Rocket and sabotage their balloon. He drops the Pokéballs to Ash and Co below, and then falls from the balloon. Exhausted by the pursuit, and Ash's Pikachu still trapped in a metal cage, the Sensei and Ariados cannot battle Team Rocket, leaving it up to Aya. She worries that she is not prepared to battle Team Rocket, though is assured by the Sensei that no one is ever fully ready for battle. Ordering her Pokémon to rest (it is not stated if it is actually using the move "Rest" or is simply sleeping), she makes a gamble that her Venonat will be able to last the duration of the time it is unable to respond to attacks, and is proven correct. Upon waking, it uses Tackle and Stun-Spore, stunning Arbok. Ash finally succeeds in removing Pikachu from the cage, and returns to beat Jessie and James' final attack. Aya reflects upon her choice to take a chance, and is praised by the Sensei for her turning "weakness into strength". When Ash and Co prepare to leave, the Sensei thanks them for their help, and promises them a place in his Dojo should they ever return.
