What's Bugging Ash? Ash heads to Azalea Town to battle for the Hive Badge. But first he has to finish a top-secret mission for Professor Oak. The mysteries of the GS Ball are about to be revealed --- or are they?

Along the way, Brock catches a new Pokémon and Team Rocket messes things up again. Then Ash finally faces off for his second Johto League badge. Will he squish Bugsy's swarm off Bug Pokémon? Or will he suffer the sting of defeat?
