{{an|Cilan}} and {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}} are in Kanto together after parting ways with Ash and Iris, and the episode starts off with the two of them lost in the woods, but then they find they're way out and up at a beautiful lake. All of a sudden Cilan sees a robotic {{p|Qwilfish}} which he thinks is real, so he tries to catch it using his fishing skills, but he accidentally ends up hooking a {{p|Gyarados}} so he has Pansage use {{m|Bullet Seed}} and {{m|Rock Tomb}} which ends up weakening Gyarados. He then has Pansage use {{m|Solar Beam}}. After Pansage gets the energy from the sun, he attempts to get close to Gyarados and attack at close range, but he ends up getting hit by Gyarados' Flamethrower and is injured. Cilan begins to worry about Pansage and decides to not catch Gyarados. Just then, Gyarados is shocked and fires a {{m|Hyper Beam}} before diving down into the lake and swimming away. Pansage moans and Cilan so he rushes to a Pokémon Center, and on his way he comes across {{an|Brock}} who lets him go by. Cilan continues running to the Pokémon Center as Brock watches.  
{{an|Cilan}} and {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}} are in [[Johto]] together after parting ways with {{Ash}} and {{an|Iris}}, but find themselves lost in the woods. They make it out safely and discover a beautiful lake, where Cilan sees a {{p|Qwilfish}} and tries to catch it by [[fishing]]. However, the line accidentally hooks a {{p|Gyarados}} that Cilan decides to capture as well. He has Pansage use {{m|Bullet Seed}} and {{m|Rock Tomb}} to weaken Gyarados, then orders a {{m|Solar Beam}} to finish it. Pansage charges energy from the sun and leaps to attack Gyarados at close range, but is hit by Gyarados's {{m|Flamethrower}} and injured. Worried about Pansage, Cilan calls off the battle and decides not to catch Gyarados. Gyarados is suddenly shocked by blue electricity and fires a {{m|Hyper Beam}} before diving into the lake and swimming away. Cilan is surprised by the Gyarados's actions, but turns and rushes to a [[Pokémon Center]]. In a street corner along the way, Cilan comes across {{an|Brock}}, who lets him go by. Cilan continues running to the Pokémon Center as Brock watches.


At the Pokémon Center, Cilan rushes in and tells Nurse Joy about the incident with the Gyarados and explains Pansage got hit by Gyarados' Flamethrower. Just then, Brock walks in and offers to help with the treatment which Nurse Joy thanks him for. Pansage is then rushed into a treatment room as Cilan anxiously waits for him to recover. After a while, Nurse Joy comes back out and tells Cilan that Pansage is just fine, and that if he rests he'll be back to normal soon, which Cilan is very relieved to hear. Nurse Joy asks Cilan why he tried to catch the Gyarados from the lake, and he explains to her that while he was fishing, he hooked the Gyarados on his fishing line, so he tried to catch it. Nurse Joy explains that particular Gyarados is referred to as the master of the lake and that it is a very powerful Hyper Beam, she then says it was good Pansage didn't get hit with the Hyper Beam. Cilan explains he saw Gyarados fire a Hyper Beam, and it was after he gave up on catching it and that he saw it's body begin to glow. Nurse Joy said she'd never heard of Gyarados using Hyper Beam after a battle, let alone that it's body would begin to glow. Brock then comes out and says he's finished with his work. Cilan thanks Brock and so does Nurse Joy, and Nurse Joy even compliments Brock saying he's very skilled. Brock says he's still inexperienced and still has much to learn. Just then, Brock begins to flirt with Nurse Joy, and just like always, {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} comes out of his Poké Ball and uses {{m|Poison Jab}} on Brock, causing Brock to faint, and Cilan is quite frightened by Croagunk when he sees what he did to Brock.
At the Pokémon Center, Cilan tells Nurse Joy about the incident with the Gyarados and its Flamethrower. Brock walks in and offers to help with the treatment, and Nurse Joy thanks him. Pansage is sent to a treatment room as Cilan anxiously waits for him to recover. After a while, Nurse Joy comes back out and tells Cilan that Pansage is fine and just needs some rest, which Cilan is very relieved to hear. Nurse Joy asks Cilan why he tried to catch the Gyarados from the lake, and he explains that he hooked the Gyarados while fishing. Nurse Joy says that this particular Gyarados is called the master of the lake and has a very powerful Hyper Beam, which Pansage is lucky to have avoided. Cilan says he saw Gyarados glow and fire a Hyper Beam after he had given up catching it. Shocked, Joy says she has never heard of such behavior in a Gyarados. Brock exits the treatment room and says his work is done, and Cilan and Joy thank him. Nurse Joy remarks that Brock is very skilled, but he admits he is still inexperienced and has much to learn. With the situation finally calm, Brock begins to flirt with Nurse Joy, prompting {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} to come out of his [[Poké Ball]], stun Brock with {{m|Poison Jab}}, and drag him away.


Just then, a young girl named Ayumi is heard calling for Nurse Joy. Nurse Joy, Brock, and Cilan all head to the lobby and Nurse Joy asks Ayumi what's wrong while Cilan and Brock stare at her Pikachu in confusion. She says that her Pikachu can't use {{m|Thunderbolt}} all that well and she's worried something might be wrong with her. Brock and Cilan both look at Pikachu, mostly examining her tail, and they both say they don't see anything wrong. Cilan then explains that he's a Pokémon Connoisseur. He looks at Pikachu and gives her some Pokémon food and he states she seems to be really close to Ayumi and then comments that maybe it's just from a lack of practice. Ayumi is a bit confused at first, but then Cilan explains that newly learned Moves need to be practiced in order to work, and then he offers to help Ayumi which she happily accepts. Out on the battlefield, Cilan uses his Stunfisk, and Ayumi tells Pikachu to use Thunderbolt. Although Pikachu tries hard, she's still unable to hit Stunfisk. Cilan then tells the two to relax and take deep breaths. After the two are calmed down enough, Ayumi has Pikachu use Thunderbolt once more, and this time she manages to make contact with Stunfisk. Stunfisk laughs being completely unfazed from the Thunderbolt due to being an Electric and Ground type. Brock then comments that Cilan's advice worked perfectly. Brock then asks if Cilan is from the Unova Region, and Cilan tells him that he is and that he came to Johto only a short while back to study afresh as a Connoisseur. Brock then offers to cook a meal for Cilan, which Cilan accepts. The scene changes to the gang at a picnic area, and Brock puts out two bowls of Pokémon food for Stunfisk and Pikachu. Ayumi comments that the soup Brock made looks good, and then she takes a sip and excitedly states the soup is good. Cilan then tastes some of the soup he has and he agrees. Brock mentions it's been a while since he's cooked for others, and that he used to cook for friends he went on a journey with, and Cilan comments that he did the same, and he wonders how they're doing.
A young girl enters the Pokémon Center and calls for Nurse Joy, so the group heads to the lobby. Joy asks the girl, [[Ayumi]], what is wrong while Cilan and Brock stare at her Pikachu. Ayumi is worried that something might be wrong with her Pikachu since she cannot use {{m|Thunderbolt}} well. Brock and Cilan examine Pikachu, focusing on her heart-tipped tail, and see nothing wrong. Cilan introduces himself as a [[Pokémon Connoisseur]] and gives Pikachu some [[Pokémon food]]. He deduces that Pikachu and Ayumi are really close, but this issue may be from a lack of practice. Ayumi is a bit confused at first, but Cilan explains that newly-learned moves require practice in order to work. He offers to help Ayumi with a battle, who happily accepts.


In the next scene, several people have come to the Pokémon Center because their Pokémon were all injured by Gyarados. They explain to her that Officer Jenny is trying to keep Gyarados under control, and Nurse Joy rushes the Pokémon to treatment rooms. Brock then tells Ayumi she should head home so her parents won't worry, and Cilan offers to walk her home and then he'd check out the situation.
On the battlefield, Ayumi tells Pikachu to use Thunderbolt on [[Cilan's Stunfisk]]. Pikachu tries hard, but is still unable to hit Stunfisk. Cilan tells the two to relax and take deep breaths. Once again, Ayumi has Pikachu use Thunderbolt, but this time it manages to make contact with Stunfisk, who giddily enjoys absorbing electricity. Brock comments that Cilan's advice worked perfectly, and asks if he is from the [[Unova]] [[region]]. Cilan confirms this and adds that he recently came to Johto to study afresh as a Connoisseur. Brock offers to cook a meal for Cilan, which he accepts. Later, the group have a picnic with bowls of Pokémon food for Stunfisk and Pikachu. Ayumi and Cilan praise Brock's soup as soon as they taste it. Brock mentions it has been a while since he has cooked for others and that he used to cook for {{ashfr|friends}} he went on a journey with. Cilan comments that he did the same and wonders how they are doing.


Meanwhile, Officer Jenny is getting people to evacuate and find shelter from the Gyarados. She tries to have her {{p|Growlithe}} to use Flamethrower on Gyarados but it counters with {{m|Hydro Pump}} and then swims away with Officer Jenny in pursuit. Just then Amer shows up and takes his robotic Qwilfish out of the water and attempts to think of another plan to catch Gyarados. At a plaza on the opposite side of the lake, Officer Jenny manages to trap Gyarados between some steel bars, and it attempts to use Flamethrower to try and break free, but it's no use, and just as Gyarados is about to use Hyper Beam to try and break free, Cilan shows up and asks Gyarados to stop what it is doing. Officer Jenny tells Cilan to step back, and he says Gyarados is only acting the way it is because he tried to catch it. Just then, Gyarados attempts to use Flamethrower but Growlithe counters using Flamethrower as well before Gyarados swims away.
Back at the Pokémon Center, several people have come because their Pokémon were injured by Gyarados, adding that [[Officer Jenny]] is trying to keep the Atrocious Pokémon under control. Nurse Joy rushes the Pokémon to treatment rooms, and Brock tells Ayumi to head home so her parents will not worry. Cilan offers to walk her home and will check out the situation afterward. Outside, Gyarados makes its way down the city's river as Officer Jenny has people evacuate and find shelter. She has her {{TP|Officer Jenny|Growlithe}} use Flamethrower on Gyarados, but it counters with {{m|Hydro Pump}} and then swims away with Officer Jenny in pursuit. The Qwilfish from before, revealed to actually be a robot, reappears in the water along with a mysterious man in a boat. He takes it out of the water and attempts to think of another plan to catch Gyarados.


Back at the Pokémon Center, Cilan, Brock, Nurse Joy, and Officer Jenny are all trying to come up with a plan to get Gyarados to return to the lake. Cilan tells the gang to leave that to him because he's not only a Pokémon Connoisseur, he's a Fishing Connoisseur as well. Brock takes Cilan to the room where all the Pokémon, including Pansage, are recovering. He tells Cilan he will bring Pansage to him once he's recovered.
Officer Jenny manages to trap Gyarados between some steel gates at a plaza on the opposite side of the river. Gyarados tries to destroy the gates with Flamethrower, but it is no use. Gyarados then prepares to use its Hyper Beam, but Cilan shows up just in time to tell Gyarados to stop what it is doing. Officer Jenny tells Cilan to step back, but he says Gyarados is only acting this way because he tried to catch it. Gyarados suddenly attacks with Flamethrower, but Growlithe counters with its own Flamethrower before Gyarados swims away.


At the plaza, Officer Jenny takes down the steel bars she used to trap Gyarados in, and then she and Cilan hop inside a boat and Cilan uses his fishing rod to lure Gyarados, which is successful, and once Gyarados is biting down on the hook, a net is released from the back of the boat trapping Gyarados inside it. Gyarados attempts to use it's Moves to break free, but no use. Officer Jenny then begins to drive the boat to the lake. They pass by Ayumi's house and she wishes them good luck. After that, Cilan sees the same robotic Qwilfish he saw at the beginning of the episode, and that time he notices the Qwilfish is a robot. The robotic Qwilfich shocks Gyarados causing it great pain, and then Cilan remembers that happened to Gyarados earlier before and he realizes it fire the Hyper Beam because it was pain. Just then, Amer shows up and Officer Jenny explains to Cilan that Amer is a Pokémon poacher who catches Pokémon by illegal means and then sells them for profit. Amer reveals that he is after Gyarados because it can use Flamethrower and then uses his remote to make the robotic Qwilfish cut the net off Officer Jenny's boat, and then he attaches the net to his boat and takes off with Officer Jenny and Cilan in close pursuit. Ayumi watches the event happen and she worries for Gyarados so she runs to get help.
Cilan, Brock, Nurse Joy, and Officer Jenny regroup at the Pokémon Center to come up with a plan to return Gyarados to the lake. Since Cilan is also a Fishing Connoisseur, he says he will handle the wrangling of Gyarados himself. Brock then takes him to the recovery room and says he will bring Pansage to him once he has recuperated.


Back at the Pokémon Center, all the Pokémon are healed, and Brock tells Pansage he will take him back to Cilan. Just then, Ayumi rushes in and tells Nurse Joy and Brock that Gyarados is in trouble. At the river, Gyarados is trying desperately to escape the net it's trapped in and Amer fires missiles at it using his robotic Qwilfish. Gyarados finally breaks free from the net with a powerful Flamethrower. Amer has uses the robotic Qwilfish to shock Gyarados and then Gyarados ends up sinking into the river. Amer thinks Gyarados has finally given in, but then it pops back up and destroys the robotic Qwilfish using Hyper Beam and Officer Jenny states that Gyarados' {{m|Outrage}} has been triggered. Gyarados destroys Amer's boat using Flamethrower so Amer attempts to make a run for it, so Cilan sends out his Crustle to stop Amer, which it does by landing on top of him making it impossible for him to move. Cilan and Officer Jenny get on the bridge and attempt to talk to Gyarados to get it to calm down, but this doesn't work. Just then, Brock and Nurse Joy show up and Pansage is with them and he runs to Cilan and hugs him and Cilan is relieved to see Pansage is feeling all better. Nurse Joy and Brock see that Gyarados' Outrage has been triggered and Brock mentions that their voices may not be able to reach Gyarados anymore. Cilan won't accept this, and he runs to the side of the bridge and he attempts to talk to Gyarados but this doesn't work. Just then, Brock sees that Gyarados is wounded and he says if he can treat the wound, Gyarados should calm down. Cilan then has Pansage use {{m|Grass Whistle}} and Pansage pulls out a chunk of the sprout on his head and begins playing Oración. Gyarados calms down and falls asleep and Brock treats it's wound making it all better. After Gyarados wakes up back in the lake it was at before, Cilan tells it that it can now live in peace. After Gyarados leaves, Brock states that Cilan had lots of courage and reminded him of a friend he traveled with and Cilan mentions he also had a friend he traveled with that was like that and that his friend must've really changed him even though he'd not realized that before (both were talking about Ash although they never mentioned him by name).
Officer Jenny takes down the gates she used to trap Gyarados at the plaza, then hops into a boat with Cilan in tow. Once Cilan successfully lures Gyarados using his fishing rod, a net is released from the back of the boat to trap it. With the boat dragging it, Gyarados is unable to use its attacks to break the net. Officer Jenny then begins to drive from the city's river to the lake. They pass by Ayumi's house and she wishes them good luck. Afterward, Cilan once again sees the Qwilfish and realizes it is actually a robot. The robotic Qwilfich shocks Gyarados, explaining the blue light Cilan saw earlier. Officer Jenny spots the mysterious man and reveals him to be [[Amer]], a [[Pokémon poacher]] who catches Pokémon by illegal means and sells them for profit. Amer reveals that he is after Gyarados because it can use Flamethrower, making it a rare find. Amer use a remote to have the Qwilfish robot cut the net off Officer Jenny's boat, and then he attaches the net to his boat and takes off with Officer Jenny and Cilan in close pursuit. Ayumi witnesses Amer's capture and, worried for Gyarados, runs to get help.


Back at the Pokémon Center, Officer Jenny thanks Cilan for his help and tells him they're going to arrest Amer. Brock, once again, starts flirting, this time with Officer Jenny, and Croagunk stops him once again with his Poison Jab. Cilan then comments that Brock is a "Lady Connoisseur" before he sets off. The episode ends with Cilan walking away when he realizes he never asked Brock his name, but he just says "Oh well" before he continues walking away.
With all the injured Pokémon at the Pokémon Center now healed, Brock tells Pansage he will take him back to Cilan. Just then, Ayumi rushes in and tells Nurse Joy and Brock that Gyarados is in trouble. Outside of the city, Gyarados tries desperately to escape from the net and Amer fires missiles at it using his robotic Qwilfish. Gyarados finally breaks free from the net with a powerful Flamethrower, but is shocked by Amer's Qwilfish Amer and ends up sinking into the river. Amer thinks Gyarados has finally given in, but then it emerges from the water and uses Hyper Beam to destroy the robot. Gyarados begins giving off a red aura, which Officer Jenny identifies as the move {{m|Outrage}}. Gyarados destroys Amer's boat using Flamethrower, so Amer attempts to make a run for it, but Cilan sends out {{TP|Cilan|Crustle}} to stop Amer with a heavy body slam.
 
Cilan and Officer Jenny get on a bridge and try to talk to Gyarados to calm it down, but this does not work. Brock and Nurse Joy show up with Pansage, who runs to Cilan and hugs him. Cilan is relieved to see Pansage feeling all better. Brock laments that their voices may not be able to reach Gyarados anymore since its Outrage has been triggered. Cilan does not accept, and he runs to the side of the bridge once more to talk to Gyarados, but this fails again. Brock then notices that Gyarados is wounded on its tail and should calm down so it can be treated. With a new plan, Pansage uses {{m|Grass Whistle}} by pulling out a chunk of the sprout on his head and playing music<!-- Oración (what is this, the official OST name?)-->. The move's effect puts Gyarados to {{status|sleep}}, so Brock wastes no time to climb onto Gyarados and spray a [[Super Potion]] on its wound. Later, Gyarados wakes up back in its lake and Cilan says it can now live in peace, so it leaves. Brock states that Cilan's courage reminds him of a friend he traveled with. Cilan says that he had a friend like that who must have rubbed off on him without him realizing.
 
Back at the Pokémon Center, Officer Jenny thanks Cilan for his help and says that Amer will be arrested. Never one to let such an opportunity go to waste, Brock starts flirting excitedly with Officer Jenny, but Croagunk Poison Jabs his efforts once again. Cilan jokingly comments that Brock is a "Lady Connoisseur" and sets off on the road. As he walks away, Cilan realizes that he never asked Brock his name, but he quickly shakes it off.

Plot

Cilan and Pansage are in Johto together after parting ways with Ash and Iris, but find themselves lost in the woods. They make it out safely and discover a beautiful lake, where Cilan sees a Qwilfish and tries to catch it by fishing. However, the line accidentally hooks a Gyarados that Cilan decides to capture as well. He has Pansage use Bullet Seed and Rock Tomb to weaken Gyarados, then orders a Solar Beam to finish it. Pansage charges energy from the sun and leaps to attack Gyarados at close range, but is hit by Gyarados's Flamethrower and injured. Worried about Pansage, Cilan calls off the battle and decides not to catch Gyarados. Gyarados is suddenly shocked by blue electricity and fires a Hyper Beam before diving into the lake and swimming away. Cilan is surprised by the Gyarados's actions, but turns and rushes to a Pokémon Center. In a street corner along the way, Cilan comes across Brock, who lets him go by. Cilan continues running to the Pokémon Center as Brock watches.

At the Pokémon Center, Cilan tells Nurse Joy about the incident with the Gyarados and its Flamethrower. Brock walks in and offers to help with the treatment, and Nurse Joy thanks him. Pansage is sent to a treatment room as Cilan anxiously waits for him to recover. After a while, Nurse Joy comes back out and tells Cilan that Pansage is fine and just needs some rest, which Cilan is very relieved to hear. Nurse Joy asks Cilan why he tried to catch the Gyarados from the lake, and he explains that he hooked the Gyarados while fishing. Nurse Joy says that this particular Gyarados is called the master of the lake and has a very powerful Hyper Beam, which Pansage is lucky to have avoided. Cilan says he saw Gyarados glow and fire a Hyper Beam after he had given up catching it. Shocked, Joy says she has never heard of such behavior in a Gyarados. Brock exits the treatment room and says his work is done, and Cilan and Joy thank him. Nurse Joy remarks that Brock is very skilled, but he admits he is still inexperienced and has much to learn. With the situation finally calm, Brock begins to flirt with Nurse Joy, prompting Croagunk to come out of his Poké Ball, stun Brock with Poison Jab, and drag him away.

A young girl enters the Pokémon Center and calls for Nurse Joy, so the group heads to the lobby. Joy asks the girl, Ayumi, what is wrong while Cilan and Brock stare at her Pikachu. Ayumi is worried that something might be wrong with her Pikachu since she cannot use Thunderbolt well. Brock and Cilan examine Pikachu, focusing on her heart-tipped tail, and see nothing wrong. Cilan introduces himself as a Pokémon Connoisseur and gives Pikachu some Pokémon food. He deduces that Pikachu and Ayumi are really close, but this issue may be from a lack of practice. Ayumi is a bit confused at first, but Cilan explains that newly-learned moves require practice in order to work. He offers to help Ayumi with a battle, who happily accepts.

On the battlefield, Ayumi tells Pikachu to use Thunderbolt on Cilan's Stunfisk. Pikachu tries hard, but is still unable to hit Stunfisk. Cilan tells the two to relax and take deep breaths. Once again, Ayumi has Pikachu use Thunderbolt, but this time it manages to make contact with Stunfisk, who giddily enjoys absorbing electricity. Brock comments that Cilan's advice worked perfectly, and asks if he is from the Unova region. Cilan confirms this and adds that he recently came to Johto to study afresh as a Connoisseur. Brock offers to cook a meal for Cilan, which he accepts. Later, the group have a picnic with bowls of Pokémon food for Stunfisk and Pikachu. Ayumi and Cilan praise Brock's soup as soon as they taste it. Brock mentions it has been a while since he has cooked for others and that he used to cook for friends he went on a journey with. Cilan comments that he did the same and wonders how they are doing.

Back at the Pokémon Center, several people have come because their Pokémon were injured by Gyarados, adding that Officer Jenny is trying to keep the Atrocious Pokémon under control. Nurse Joy rushes the Pokémon to treatment rooms, and Brock tells Ayumi to head home so her parents will not worry. Cilan offers to walk her home and will check out the situation afterward. Outside, Gyarados makes its way down the city's river as Officer Jenny has people evacuate and find shelter. She has her Growlithe use Flamethrower on Gyarados, but it counters with Hydro Pump and then swims away with Officer Jenny in pursuit. The Qwilfish from before, revealed to actually be a robot, reappears in the water along with a mysterious man in a boat. He takes it out of the water and attempts to think of another plan to catch Gyarados.

Officer Jenny manages to trap Gyarados between some steel gates at a plaza on the opposite side of the river. Gyarados tries to destroy the gates with Flamethrower, but it is no use. Gyarados then prepares to use its Hyper Beam, but Cilan shows up just in time to tell Gyarados to stop what it is doing. Officer Jenny tells Cilan to step back, but he says Gyarados is only acting this way because he tried to catch it. Gyarados suddenly attacks with Flamethrower, but Growlithe counters with its own Flamethrower before Gyarados swims away.

Cilan, Brock, Nurse Joy, and Officer Jenny regroup at the Pokémon Center to come up with a plan to return Gyarados to the lake. Since Cilan is also a Fishing Connoisseur, he says he will handle the wrangling of Gyarados himself. Brock then takes him to the recovery room and says he will bring Pansage to him once he has recuperated.

Officer Jenny takes down the gates she used to trap Gyarados at the plaza, then hops into a boat with Cilan in tow. Once Cilan successfully lures Gyarados using his fishing rod, a net is released from the back of the boat to trap it. With the boat dragging it, Gyarados is unable to use its attacks to break the net. Officer Jenny then begins to drive from the city's river to the lake. They pass by Ayumi's house and she wishes them good luck. Afterward, Cilan once again sees the Qwilfish and realizes it is actually a robot. The robotic Qwilfich shocks Gyarados, explaining the blue light Cilan saw earlier. Officer Jenny spots the mysterious man and reveals him to be Amer, a Pokémon poacher who catches Pokémon by illegal means and sells them for profit. Amer reveals that he is after Gyarados because it can use Flamethrower, making it a rare find. Amer use a remote to have the Qwilfish robot cut the net off Officer Jenny's boat, and then he attaches the net to his boat and takes off with Officer Jenny and Cilan in close pursuit. Ayumi witnesses Amer's capture and, worried for Gyarados, runs to get help.

With all the injured Pokémon at the Pokémon Center now healed, Brock tells Pansage he will take him back to Cilan. Just then, Ayumi rushes in and tells Nurse Joy and Brock that Gyarados is in trouble. Outside of the city, Gyarados tries desperately to escape from the net and Amer fires missiles at it using his robotic Qwilfish. Gyarados finally breaks free from the net with a powerful Flamethrower, but is shocked by Amer's Qwilfish Amer and ends up sinking into the river. Amer thinks Gyarados has finally given in, but then it emerges from the water and uses Hyper Beam to destroy the robot. Gyarados begins giving off a red aura, which Officer Jenny identifies as the move Outrage. Gyarados destroys Amer's boat using Flamethrower, so Amer attempts to make a run for it, but Cilan sends out Crustle to stop Amer with a heavy body slam.

Cilan and Officer Jenny get on a bridge and try to talk to Gyarados to calm it down, but this does not work. Brock and Nurse Joy show up with Pansage, who runs to Cilan and hugs him. Cilan is relieved to see Pansage feeling all better. Brock laments that their voices may not be able to reach Gyarados anymore since its Outrage has been triggered. Cilan does not accept, and he runs to the side of the bridge once more to talk to Gyarados, but this fails again. Brock then notices that Gyarados is wounded on its tail and should calm down so it can be treated. With a new plan, Pansage uses Grass Whistle by pulling out a chunk of the sprout on his head and playing music. The move's effect puts Gyarados to sleep, so Brock wastes no time to climb onto Gyarados and spray a Super Potion on its wound. Later, Gyarados wakes up back in its lake and Cilan says it can now live in peace, so it leaves. Brock states that Cilan's courage reminds him of a friend he traveled with. Cilan says that he had a friend like that who must have rubbed off on him without him realizing.

Back at the Pokémon Center, Officer Jenny thanks Cilan for his help and says that Amer will be arrested. Never one to let such an opportunity go to waste, Brock starts flirting excitedly with Officer Jenny, but Croagunk Poison Jabs his efforts once again. Cilan jokingly comments that Brock is a "Lady Connoisseur" and sets off on the road. As he walks away, Cilan realizes that he never asked Brock his name, but he quickly shakes it off.
