Ash, Misty, and Brock are walking throught the woods with Team Rocket spying on them. A man named Muramasa finds them.

Muramasa walks up and a red flash flies over head. a Scizor appears and begins to attack Pikachu. Pikachu gets hurt and Misty angrily walks up to Muramasa and begins to yell at him. Brock grabs her arms to hold her back. Ash looks Scizor up on his Pokédex and Muramasa offers to show them to his fighting dojo.

As they walk into the dojo they see a Nidoking and a Scyther fighting. A few people and Pokémon are also lifting weights. As Muramasa walks in, everybody around there bows to him.
