The user hurls a shadowy ball forward in a line – damaging, slowing, and reducing the Special Defense of enemies hit. This ball pierces through wild Pokémon. At level 13, its damage increases.<br /> <br /> Hoopa can obtain the move by upgrading {{m|Astonish}} at level 6 into it instead of {{m|Phantom Force}}. The move has the user unleash a shadowy blob in front of itself, dealing damage to opposing Pokémon it hits and decreasing their movement speed and Sp. Def for a short time. If the user then hits the same opposing Pokémon with a move or boosted attack within a set amount of time, it deals additional damage to the opposing Pokémon and leaves them unable to act for a short time. When using this move, if there is a nearby ally Pokémon linked by Trick, this move will also unleash a shadowy blob at the same target from that ally’s location. At level 12, the shadowy blob will now explode before it disappears. Opposing Pokémon hit by the explosion are affected as if they were hit by the shadowy blob itself. In Unbound form, this move is replaced by {{m|Hyperspace Fury}}.<br /> <br /> ===Description===<br /> {{movedesc|ghost}}<br /> {{movedescentry|{{gameabbrevmd|RB}}|Inflicts damage on the target, even at a distance.

(Japanese: '''ゴルバットＶＳかめんのじょおうムサシ！いせきのたたかい！！''' ''Golbat VS the Masked Queen {{tt|Musashi|Jessie}}! The Battle in the Ruins!!'') is the 196th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on May 3, 2001 and in the United States on March 30, 2002.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/04_39-control-freak/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;As our heroes and their Pokémon enjoy another fine meal prepared by Brock, Golbat begins to act strangely and flies away. Brock, Ash and Misty chase after the Flying-type and end up at an archaeological dig. When they meet the intelligent and beautiful archeologist, Tierra she explains her ultra-sonic equipment had just been destroyed and perhaps its errant waves attracted Golbat. She also tells our heroes of an ancient golden mask and scepter, once belonging to a queen who had the power to control all Pokémon. She is now looking for a buried temple said to contain these two priceless artifacts and asks Brock if his Golbat will use it's Sonic attack to help her locate the exact placement of the temple. Overhearing our heroes, Team Rocket employs their latest mechanical menace, the Dig-a-Tron to beat the gang to the temple. When Jessie dons the mask and scepter she has the power to control all Pokémon, even Pikachu! What will become of the Pokémon under Jesse's rule?&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} have stopped to enjoy another fine meal prepared by {{an|Brock}}. {{p|Golbat}} is the first to dig in. As it eats, Golbat's ears twitch and it flies away. Brock, Ash and {{an|Misty}} chase after it and end up at an archaeological dig. Upon reaching the site, Brock finds a fainted woman, [[Tierra]], she quickly wakes up. The site appears to be destroyed, with machinery lying crumpled. Brock asks Tierra if she has a laptop computer to help fix the detector equipment, and she takes them to her site office. As Brock fixes Tierra's equipment, Tierra explains that she is looking for a buried temple described in an ancient tablet. According to the legend, thousands of years ago a queen along with her golden mask and staff had the power to control Pokémon. Tierra is now looking for the said buried temple and these two priceless artifacts. Eavesdropping on this, {{TRT}} considers taking the mask and staff for themselves, to give half of the Pokémon to {{an|Giovanni}} and leaving the others for sale. <br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Brock manages to fix Tierra's laptop, though the scanner was irreparable. Instead, Brock offers his Golbat's assistance, its {{m|Supersonic}} attack can help Tierra locate the exact placement of the temple. Ash claims that Brock is great with computers and references his actions at [[Dr. Anna]]'s clinic. Misty notices that the located temple appears to be deep down. Tierra admits her digging equipment was destroyed after a column fell onto it. Brock promptly calls on his {{TP|Brock|Geodude}} to {{m|Dig}} to the temple. <br /> <br /> {{MTR}} unveils their latest mechanical menace. They reach the site first, with the [[Team Rocket's mechas|Dig-a-Tron]] drilling its way through a stone ceiling, the freefall causes the machine to suddenly stop. Team Rocket emerge from the machine uninjured and notice a statue with both the mask and staff. [[Jessie]] dons the mask and staff, declaring herself the &quot;Queen of All Pokémon&quot;. She first tries her powers out on [[James's Victreebel]], making it emerge from its {{i|Poké Ball}} and then attack [[James]]. Meowth first doubts Jessie's newfound power and then he finds himself doing a dance. When Ash and friends arrive at the temple, Tierra is shocked by Jessie's belligerence, she declares the mask and staff are priceless artifacts. Jessie takes control over {{AP|Pikachu}}, commanding him to shock Ash with an electric attack. Pikachu then walks over to Jessie without hesitation. Team Rocket prepare to make their escape, but Meowth informs Jessie that the Dig-a-Tron does not have a reverse feature. In the delay, Brock calls upon Geodude, {{TP|Brock|Onix}} and Golbat to get Pikachu back. Jessie takes control of all three of them, however Golbat manages to break loose of the spell and starts to attack Jessie with a Supersonic attack, which repels the staff's power. Jessie commands Geodude to attack Golbat and Onix to carry the Dig-a-Tron back to the surface. Onix smashes through a temple wall, causing the ceiling to collapse. The group and Geodude emerge safely from the rubble, and Brock begins to listen out for Golbat. Brock successfully locates and reaches Golbat just as more of the temple is collapsing.<br /> <br /> Up on the surface Team Rocket are waiting to ambush Ash and his friends. Jessie and Pikachu, in preparation, walk over to the exit tunnel and cross a strange marking on the ground, the spell breaks and Pikachu uses his {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack on Jessie. Jessie and Pikachu once again cross this same border, and the staff's control over Pikachu returns to full effect. This same scene unfolds again, this time Ash and friends have made it to the surface. Tierra explains that the power of the mask and staff only works within the home village of the queen. Jessie is conflicted with this sudden predicament. Upon hearing this Team Rocket jump back into the Dig-a-tron, and the mecha transforms into a rocket. As the trio prepare to make their escape, Ash sends out {{AP|Noctowl}} to chase the trio alongside Golbat. However, the Dig-a-tron is too fast for both {{type|Flying}} Pokémon. Inside the machine, Jessie removes the queen's mask, noting it may be worth its weight in gold. Brock offers some encouraging words to Golbat and upon hearing this, Golbat begins to [[Evolution|evolves]] into a {{TP|Brock|Crobat}}. Now with four wings instead of two, Crobat soon catches up with Team Rocket and uses a {{m|Wing Attack}} to slice the Dig-a-Tron into pieces. Team Rocket falls onto the ground below. Jessie attempts to grab the gold mask and staff, but she is blocked by the newly evolved Crobat. It is not long until Ash and friends catch up and Team Rocket get a zap of Thunderbolt to send them blasting off. <br /> <br /> The group meet back at Tierra's site office. Tierra admits that the temple was destroyed, but she happily reports that the staff and mask will offer her plenty of insight into the legend. Brock declares his love and desire to stay with Tierra, in response Misty pulls Brock away by the ear. The group leave behind Tierra, who is excited about the new discovery, and carry on their journey.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * [[Brock's Geodude]] is revealed to know {{m|Dig}}.<br /> * {{an|Brock}}'s {{p|Golbat}} [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{TP|Brock|Crobat}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Crobat}} ({{OP|Brock|Crobat}})<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP196.png|thumb|200px|right|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon?}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Tierra]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP196.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Miltank}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Golbat}} ''(Japan)''<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Noctowl}} ({{OP|Ash|Noctowl}}; {{Shiny}})<br /> * {{p|Onix}} ({{OP|Brock|Onix}})<br /> * {{p|Geodude}} ({{OP|Brock|Geodude}})<br /> * {{p|Golbat}} ({{OP|Brock|Crobat}}; evolves)<br /> * {{p|Crobat}} ({{OP|Brock|Crobat}}; newly evolved; debut)<br /> * {{p|Victreebel}} ({{OP|James|Victreebel}})<br /> * {{p|Beedrill}} (fantasy)<br /> * {{p|Pidgeotto}} (fantasy)<br /> * {{p|Gengar}} (fantasy)<br /> * {{p|Dragonite}} (fantasy)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * In this episode, {{TRT}} uses a variation of their {{motto}}.<br /> * Music from ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'' is used in this episode.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * When {{an|Brock}} uses {{p|Golbat}}'s {{m|Supersonic}} sound waves to locate the queen's temple, {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} say that Brock did the same thing [[EP165|when &quot;they&quot; were lost]] in [[Dr. Anna]]'s medical clinic.

Pokémon Gym!'') is the 42nd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on April 30, 1998, and in the United States on October 29, 1998. It was initially intended to air in Japan on January 27, 1998, but was rescheduled following the [[EP038]] incident.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/01_39-showdown-at-dark-city/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;In the middle of a terrible desert, our heroes inadvertently wandered into Dark City. With no name but Dark, the city has fallen into ruin. The streets, even at midday, are vacant of people. But suddenly, a rare figure appears and begins to throw stones at Ash and friends. They had heard at a restaurant in town, that this town contains two authorized Pokémon gyms, but that their Masters try to battle traveling Pokémon trainers anywhere within the town. This is said to be the cause of the town's desolation. Will our heroes also be caught up in the whirlwind of these battles?&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrive in [[Dark City]], which appears to be a ghost town, much to {{an|Brock}}'s dismay. They are even more curious to see a mother taking her wandering son back indoors for fear of [[Pokémon Trainer]]s in the area. As they ponder why that is, {{AP|Pikachu}} is hit by a rock thrown from the roof of a nearby building. When Ash tells Pikachu to retaliate using a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, it hits three children on the rooftop. When the group goes to apologize to the children, they get hit in the head with sticks, as the children want the group to leave their town. The children are then stopped by a local restaurant owner, who invites everyone back to his restaurant.<br /> <br /> At the restaurant, while eating lunch, Pikachu takes a particular liking to eating ketchup from the bottle. The restaurant owner explains to Ash and his friends, as a mysterious patron listens close by, that Dark City has two rival [[Gym|Pokémon Gyms]], the Yas Gym and the Kaz Gym, lead by [[Yas]] and [[Kaz]], respectively. Both Gyms seek official status, but to do so, they would need the approval of the [[Pokémon Inspection Agency|Pokémon League inspector]], who is scheduled to arrive at any moment. As there can only be one official Gym per city, each of the two Gyms seeks to eliminate the other before the inspector arrives. The restaurant owner further explains that Pokémon Trainers who pass through Dark City are typically recruited for the cause of either Gym. Suddenly, a street fight between the two Gyms breaks out outside the restaurant. The Yas Gym's {{p|Scyther}} and the Kaz Gym's {{p|Electabuzz}} in particular are dispatching the men of the opposing Gym with ease, all the while damaging the town and terrorizing the townsfolk. As Ash and his friends watch from the safety of the restaurant, the three note that the fighting is not as much of a proper [[Pokémon battle]] as it is just a petty gang war.<br /> <br /> At that point, the safety of the restaurant is completely shattered when {{TRT}}, hired by the Kaz Gym as elite bodyguards, invades the building in disguise and demands food. They send out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}} to deal with the restaurant owner when he refuses due to the Kaz Gym having run up a large tab. Ash sends out Pikachu and {{an|Misty}} her {{TP|Misty|Starmie}} to intercept Team Rocket, but they are beaten to the punch by Brock, whose {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} quickly forces Team Rocket out of the restaurant with a {{m|Flamethrower}}. Vulpix garners the attention of a female Yas Gym recruiter, and when she thanks the group for their efforts, Ash tries to take credit for the whole thing before Misty shuts him down and reminds him that it was Vulpix alone who stopped Team Rocket. The recruiter then tries to recruit Ash and his friends for their cause. At the advice of Misty, who claims that taking sides would ruin their reputations as Trainers, Ash, looking at Pikachu's ketchup bottle, introduces himself as Tom Ato, followed by Misty as Ann Chovy, and Brock as Caesar Salad. They are then taken to the Yas Gym.<br /> <br /> [[Yas]] is introduced to Ash and his friends. To judge Ash's strength as a Trainer, the unofficial Gym Leader proceeds to release his Scyther to attack Pikachu. However, Scyther's {{m|Cut}} attack is blocked by Pikachu's ketchup bottle, to Pikachu's pure devastation. This results in Scyther getting squirted in the eyes with ketchup, blinding it and causing it to attack its Trainer. Surprised, Yas [[recall]]s Scyther and asks Ash to join him. When asked why the Yas Gym wanted to be an official Gym, Yas responds that it is simply a means to earn [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] quickly, as with official Gym status comes prestige and funding. Because Ash does not see this as a worthy cause, he declines. However, Yas, angry at Ash for refusing, orders his underlings to physically beat him up with several {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon. While the Pokémon are busy trying to attack Ash, his friends rescue him and they flee. <br /> <br /> Back at the restaurant, Ash gets treatment for his wounds and comments that both the Yas and Kaz Gyms only see Pokémon battles as regular fighting rather than an honored sport, and Brock asserts that unless they're stopped, it could make all Pokémon and their Trainers look bad. Misty is curious as to why they were able to escape the Yas Gym so quickly and uncovers the answer from Ash's [[Pokédex]]: Scyther and Electabuzz are color-sensitive, and the color red in particular will send the two into a rage. Knowing this, Ash and his friends devise a plan to stop the fighting once and for all by defeating both the Yas and Kaz Gyms in one fell swoop.<br /> <br /> Once again, fighting breaks out on the streets of Dark City between the Yas and Kaz Gyms. Scyther, with a boost from {{m|Swords Dance}}, manages to use Cut to destroy Kaz's forces and claimed buildings with ease. Meanwhile, Electabuzz's {{m|Thunder Punch}} manages to do the same against the Yas Gym's Pokémon. When Ash sees an opening, he tells his friends, the restaurant owner, and the children from earlier to dump a bunch of ketchup barrels from the rooftops onto all the Trainers below, covering them in the sticky red sauce. This enrages Scyther and Electabuzz as they proceed to attack their own Trainers. Yas and [[Kaz]] are at Ash's mercy, and Ash decides to end the conflict by having his {{AP|Bulbasaur}} use {{m|Vine Whip}} to throw a pair of buckets filled with ketchup to soak Scyther and Electabuzz. Both Pokémon try to attack their counterpart, only to run into each other, knocking the two of them out.<br /> <br /> When Ash asks whether the two Leaders have learned their lesson and resolved their differences, they finally agree to team up, but only to fight back against Ash and his friends. In response, Ash orders Pikachu to unleash {{m|Thunder}}, shocking both sides. Despite this, the Leaders refuse to give up and prepare to attack the heroes with sticks. However, the mysterious patron from before appears and reveals herself to be [[Nurse Joy]], the Pokémon League inspector, and tells everyone that neither Yas nor Kaz deserve to be an official Gym, as their street fighting will not be tolerated by the [[Pokémon League]]. However, she allows the Leaders a second chance, and tells the two that Ash would make a fine tutor with regards to how to be a proper Pokémon Trainer and how to start over as one united Gym, but Ash admits he is at a loss of words with regards to how to be one. However, Ash does manage to order the Leaders to repair all the damage to the town that they had caused, as they promptly proceed to get to work on the restoration.<br /> <br /> As Ash and his friends begin to leave Dark City, they are met again by the children from earlier. They have quickly become fans of Pikachu and exclaim that they have decided to become Pokémon Trainers themselves. Meanwhile, Team Rocket, having been covered in ketchup during the battle, are run out of town by the enraged Scyther and Electabuzz.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> &lt;!-- This is not for summarizing everything that happens in this episode.

(Japanese: '''カブトのかせきのひみつ！''' ''The Secret of the Kabuto Fossils!'') is the 89th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on March 25, 1999 and in the United States on March 4, 2000. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/02_35-shell-shock/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Aboard Lapras, the group follows a news crew to an uninhabited island, where a scientific expedition is underway after the discovery of a fossilized Kabuto. A series of natural disasters place our heroes in mortal danger, with only the power of their Pokémon to help them. What is the secret of the Kabuto, and who wants that secret to remain hidden?&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> While aboard {{AP|Lapras}}, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} follow a news crew to [[Fukuhara Island No. 4]], where an excavation is underway after the discovery of a fossilized {{p|Kabuto}}. While on the island, they are shocked to learn that [[Nurse Joy]] is the director of the excavation. She tells the new reporter that the excavation hopes to study the habitat of the extinct Kabuto. She also remarks that they would like to find out the veracity about the claims about Kabuto oil, considered a youth elixir and health medicine. After hearing all of this, Ash and {{Tracey}} ask if they can help. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} watches the whole scene from their {{p|Magikarp}} [[Team Rocket's mechas|submarine]]. As [[Jessie]] wonders why a television crew would be on the island, {{MTR}} says that they could be on TV as well if they hurry and capture {{AP|Pikachu}}.<br /> <br /> Nurse Joy leads a group of explorers, the news crew, and Ash's group to the digging site. A group of {{p|Growlithe}} also accompany the team, while {{p|Machoke}} are seen carrying some equipment and several {{p|Rhydon}} for drilling holes. As they pass by, a mysterious silhouette of a man is seen behind a tree. As they reach a small cliff path, Team Rocket is shown following the same path on a lower section of the cliff. As Nurse Joy's team moves on, the Growlithe start to growl at a large boulder on a hill, but Nurse Joy dismisses the alarm. Suddenly, the boulder falls and starts racing towards them. While the group runs down the hill, Ash suggests that Nurse Joy use the Machoke's strength. They Pokémon succeed and the team is saved. Unfortunately for Team Rocket, the boulder then rolls off the side of the cliff and knocks [[James]] into a canyon.<br /> <br /> As the team continues to walk, the same silhouette is seen behind a rock. Pikachu catches a glimpse and looks over, which catches Ash's attention. Ash turns around to check, though he sees nothing suspicious. Eventually, the team reaches their destination, a hidden bay on the island's desolate northern shore. The crew and their Pokémon start to excavate. As Ash, Tracey, Pikachu, and {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} dig, several boulders start falling onto them. Nurse Joy commands Rhydon to use {{m|Horn Drill}}, which shatters the boulders.<br /> <br /> Afterwards, Misty mentions that she thinks that someone is responsible for all of the incidents. Tracey refutes her claims and clarifies that the island is supposed to be deserted. Just then, the silhouette is seen running from behind a tree; Pikachu notices and starts chasing after him. Ash follows suit and ends up jumping on the man, bringing them both to the ground. As the rest of the crew catches up, the identity of the man is revealed to be [[Umberto]]. He sternly tells them to leave the island, and admits that he has been pushing the boulders onto them, clarifying that he was only trying to keep them out of harm's way.<br /> <br /> Umberto then tells them of an ancient prophecy, which implies that anyone who comes to the island to disturb the Kabuto will cause the island to be swallowed up by the sea. At that moment, an explorer comes running into the forest, ecstatic from finding another Kabuto fossil. He leads the others into a cave, where they find walls of Kabuto fossils at the other end. Just then, Team Rocket arrives, causing the cavern walls to crumble. James then throws a bomb that gets passed around until Ash catches it and throws it at the wall of Kabuto fossils. The fossils then explode off the wall, allowing Team Rocket to wrap them up in a net. As the trio tries to get away in their hot-air balloon, the Kabuto suddenly come to life as moonlight hits them. One ends up popping Team Rocket's balloon, which leads to them blasting off.<br /> <br /> It is soon apparent that the Kabuto were Fukuhara Island No. 4's foundations, and the island begins to flood as the fossil Pokémon become more disturbed. As the island starts to collapse, the team decides to head for the boat, but Umberto insists that the prophecy advises trespassers to run into the forest and make a raft. They listen to him and start building a makeshift raft. As the island sinks, they all jump onto the raft, and Ash sends out Lapras and {{AP|Squirtle}}, while Misty sends out {{TP|Misty|Staryu}} and {{TP|Misty|Goldeen}} to help pull the raft. They all make it out to sea and watch as the island completely sinks. Joy remarks that maybe the Kabuto oil does cause them to live forever. She then apologizes to Umberto for not believing him, and the news reporter says that she thinks it is best if no one finds out the Kabuto's secret. Later on, the Kabuto are seen swimming towards the moonlight, looking for a new home.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> &lt;!-- This is not for summarizing everything that happens in this episode.

(Japanese: '''ブラッキー！やみよのたたかい！！''' ''{{tt|Blacky|Umbreon}}! Battle During a Dark Night!!'') is the 171st episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on November 2, 2000 and in the United States on October 20, 2001. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/04_14-power-play/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;When a blackout hits a town on the road to Ecruteak City, our heroes realize it puts the Pokémon in the local Pokécenter in jeopardy. Wanting to help nurse Joy and the ailing Pokémon, the gang takes on the task of finding out what went haywire at the power plant. Before they can help restore the power however, they have to overcome the latest Team Rocket invention: The Mecha-Robo-Wobbuffet! See how Ash and Pikachu team up with Gary and his Umbreon in order to overcome Team Rocket and restore power to the grateful town.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} are on the road to [[Ecruteak City]] when they overhear a [[Pokémon battle]] nearby. Curious, they go to get a closer look and are surprised to see Ash's rival {{Gary}} battling another [[Alex Davis|Trainer]]. The {{pkmn|Trainer}} calls out an {{p|Alakazam}}, which causes Gary to bring out his {{TP|Gary|Umbreon}}. Checking his [[Pokédex]], Ash realizes that this Umbreon is the evolved form of the {{p|Eevee}} that Gary used to defeat him back in [[Pallet Town]].<br /> <br /> Alakazam starts things off by launching a massive {{m|Zap Cannon}} attack toward Umbreon but misses when it leaps into the air in the nick of time. Alakazam then tries {{m|Psychic}}, but Umbreon is unaffected as it is a {{type|Dark}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, which are unaffected by Psychic attacks. Using its {{m|Headbutt}} next, Alakazam charges at its opponent with alarming speed. However, Umbreon dodges and takes advantage of the situation by {{m|Tackle|tackling}} Alakazam. But it recovers from the blow and retaliates with {{m|Dynamic Punch}}, which Umbreon easily evades. Alakazam then pulls off a {{m|Double Team}} and sends all clones to strike at once. Gary commands Umbreon to stay calm to sense the real Alakazam, which it does. Just as Umbreon is about to connect with a {{m|Quick Attack}}, Alakazam uses {{m|Teleport}}. As Umbreon searches for the whereabouts of its opponent, the other Trainer tells Alakazam to end the battle with {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Gary notices the strange light coming from his left and warns Umbreon to dodge the attack. It jumps up at the last minute and finishes Alakazam off using {{m|Hidden Power}}. After Gary wins his battle, Ash challenges Gary to a match but Gary declines, reminding Ash of how Umbreon defeated {{AP|Pikachu}} before as an Eevee. Ash tells Gary he doesn't have to use Pikachu to battle Umbreon, and sends out {{AP|Chikorita}}, {{AP|Cyndaquil}}, {{AP|Totodile}} and {{AP|Noctowl}}. However Ash's attempts to impress his rival backfire as Chikorita goes straight to Ash for attention, Cyndaquil wanders about aimlessly, Totodile starts dancing around wildly and Noctowl starts to sleep. Ash starts to despair, but by now Gary has walked off. Naturally, Ash isn't happy about the brush off and vows to beat Gary and Umbreon the next time they meet.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} try to come up with their next scheme. {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} begins to bother Meowth, who responds with his signature {{m|Fury Swipes}} attack. When Wobbuffet uses his {{m|Counter}} to reflect the attack back on Meowth, Jessie suddenly gets an idea.<br /> <br /> In a nearby town, Ash tries to ignore Misty and Brock as they talk about Gary's Umbreon. Wanting to bolster his strength in case he meets Gary again, Ash starts stuffing his face with hamburgers the moment they arrive at a [[Pokémon Center]]. Brock tries to tell him that it could be weeks before they meet Gary again, but Ash refuses to heed his advice. Without warning, the lights in the Center go out. [[Nurse Joy]] comes in and says that the entire town has suffered a blackout and that without electricity the intensive care unit in the Pokémon Center can't function. Eager to impress Nurse Joy, Brock volunteers to go to the town's hydroelectric power plant and see what the problem is. Ash and Misty decide to go along as well. On their way to the plant, they pass by Gary's campsite, who decides to follow them with Umbreon.<br /> <br /> At the power plant, they find all of the plant employees tied up, and realize that {{TRT}} is responsible for the blackout, having diverted the energy from the plant into their new [[Team Rocket's mechas|Robo-Mecha Wobbuffet]] with a gigantic power cable. Like a real Wobbuffet, the robot has the ability to counter attacks and easily reflects every attack Ash and his friends try to throw at it. Realizing they can't beat it, Ash and company beat a hasty retreat into the woods, with Robo-Mecha Wobbuffet right behind them. However, just when everything seems lost, the Robo-Mecha Wobbuffet suddenly stops, having used up the full length of its power cord. Arriving on the scene, Gary takes advantage of the robot's weakness and orders Umbreon to sever the power cable, stopping the robot dead in its tracks. With Team Rocket unable to do anything, the four Trainers rush back to the power plant and quickly release the imprisoned workers. The workers say that with the damage Team Rocket caused, the only way to restore the town's power is to activate the backup generator located nearby.<br /> <br /> On their way to the generator, Ash and his friends are once again interrupted by Robo-Mecha Wobbuffet, which has become fully mobile thanks to James' and Meowth's bicycle power. Under Jessie's control, the robot begins to fight against Ash's Pokémon but quickly stops again when an exhausted James and Meowth lose their energy to pedal. Ash orders {{AP|Pikachu}} to use his {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but finds that the attack only recharges the robot. With a new supply of energy, the robot resumes its attack with even greater force. Watching its counter attack in action, Ash suddenly gets an idea. He orders {{AP|Cyndaquil}} to use {{m|Flamethrower}}, which is quickly sucked into the robot's stomach. Before it can release the attack he orders {{AP|Chikorita}} to use {{m|Vine Whip}} and hold the robot's counter mechanism shut. This causes the counter to be released inside the robot, blowing it to pieces and causing Team Rocket to blast off again.<br /> <br /> With the robot out of the way Ash and Gary reach the backup generator and combine their Pokémon's powers to get it running again. When they realize the backup generator isn't giving off enough power, Pikachu uses his {{m|Thunder Shock}} to get it up to peak capacity. Impressed, Gary tells Ash that he's gotten a lot stronger since their last encounter, and says that next time they meet it might be him that challenges Ash to a battle. Surprised at having won his rival's respect, Ash says that he looks forward to that day and the two part ways.<br /> <br /> The next day, after saying goodbye to Nurse Joy. Ash and his friends continue on their journey.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} meet up with {{Gary}} again.<br /> * Gary's {{p|Eevee}} is revealed to have [[Evolution|evolved]] into an {{TP|Gary|Umbreon}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Umbreon}} ({{OP|Gary|Umbreon}})<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:Dare da EP171.png|thumb|200px|right|{{tt|Dare da?|Who's That Pokémon?}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * {{Gary}}<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Alex Davis]]<br /> * Power plant workers<br /> * Town residents<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP171.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Shellder}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Umbreon}} ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Chikorita}} ({{OP|Ash|Chikorita}})<br /> * {{p|Cyndaquil}} ({{OP|Ash|Cyndaquil}})<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}})<br /> * {{p|Noctowl}} ({{OP|Ash|Noctowl}}; {{Shiny}})<br /> * {{p|Staryu}} ({{OP|Misty|Staryu}})<br /> * {{p|Poliwhirl}} ({{OP|Misty|Poliwhirl}})<br /> * {{p|Umbreon}} ({{OP|Gary|Umbreon}}; debut)<br /> * {{p|Alakazam}} ([[Alex Davis]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Blissey}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The episode's English [[dub]] title is a reference to the sports term &quot;{{wp|Power play (sporting term)|power play}}&quot;.<br /> * The voice of [[Alex Davis]] is provided by a competition winner of the same name.<br /> * [[Team Rocket Forever]] plays in the background when {{TRT}} attacks with their Wobbuffet mecha. <br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * In the scene where everyone is pulling down on the lever, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} is initially pulling behind {{AP|Chikorita}}.

(Japanese: '''ヒワマキジム！大空の戦い！！''' ''{{tt|Hiwamaki|Fortree}} Gym! Battle in the Sky!!'') is the 85th episode of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'', and the 359th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on July 15, 2004 and in the United States on July 9, 2005.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_45-sky-high-gym-battle/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash begins his Gym battle with Winona by sending out Grovyle against her Altaria. Grovyle takes out Altaria with Leaf Blade. Next up is Pelipper, a Water-and-Flying-type so Ash counters with the Electric-type Pikachu. Pelipper uses Steel Wing on the ground, and Pikachu uses Thunderbolt with no effect. Team Rocket arrives to steal Pikachu, but the force of Pikachu's continued Thunderbolt sends them blasting off.<br /> <br /> It turns out that Pelipper is being grounded by its Steel Wing, making the Electric-type attack ineffective. Pelipper uses Hydro Pump, which Pikachu uses as a conduit to shock the other Pokémon. It results in a double KO.<br /> <br /> Ash sends out Grovyle again, which is then finished off by Winona's Swellow. Ash counters with his own Swellow. Winona's Pokémon has the advantage since it has more experience battling in mid-air, especially with its Aerial Ace. After taking several hits, Ash has his Swellow use Wing Attack on the ground, which gives his Swellow a chance to counterattack, knocking out Swellow and winning him the Feather Badge.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> [[Winona]], the [[Fortree City]] [[Gym Leader]], and {{Ash}} take their places on opposing elevated platforms above the battlefield. Before the {{pkmn|battle}} commences, Winona prays to the wind, asking for strength. {{ho|Zachary}} takes his position as referee and explains the rules of the match; a three-on-three battle and only the challenger can make substitutions. Winona calls out her {{TP|Winona|Altaria}}, while Ash chooses {{AP|Grovyle}}. Watching from the sidelines, {{an|May}} examines Altaria on her [[Pokédex]] and {{an|Brock}} warns that Altaria are part {{type|Dragon}}, making for a dangerous opponent. Altaria begins the battle with a {{m|Peck}} attack, but Grovyle counters with {{m|Bullet Seed}} and then jumps out of the way but gets pecked afterwards. Winona commands Altaria do another Peck, but Ash gets Grovyle to dodge it by climbing up a totem pole and doing a backflip. Altaria lands a direct hit with {{m|Dragon Breath}}, but Grovyle doesn't seem too affected by it. Winona again commands Altaria to use the same attack, but Ash gets Grovyle to jump out of the way. Winona is mildly concerned with Grovyle's {{stat|Speed}} as continues to evade Altaria’s Dragon Breath. Grovyle then attacks with Bullet Seed again and hits Altaria on the back, with no ill effect. Altaria resorts to ascending even higher. Despite the increased altitude, Grovyle rebounds off a pole and slashes Altaria with a {{m|Leaf Blade}}. Grovyle holds the attack, pushing the pair directly into the battlefield. When the dust has settled, Altaria lies unconscious so Grovyle is declares the winner of the round. Ash's friends are impressed, that despite the type disadvantage, he managed to pull through. Winona also admits that she was caught off guard by Ash’s strategy.<br /> <br /> Winona recalls Altaria and sends out {{p|Pelipper}}. Ash decides to switch out Grovyle and selects {{AP|Pikachu}}. On the sidelines, [[Max]] points out that Pelipper is a hybrid {{2t|Water|Flying}} [[type]] and Brock adds that Pikachu's {{t|Electric}} typing gives him the advantage. Pikachu starts off with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but the attack is proving ineffective as Pelipper grounds itself with {{m|Steel Wing}}. The electrical charge instead flows into the subterranean area of the [[Fortree Gym]] and electrocutes {{TRT}}, who is wandering the tunnels aimlessly in search of Pikachu. The trio is subsequently blasted onto the battlefield, and they plot to catch Pikachu while he's distracted by the battle. The trio recites their {{motto}} and rush towards Pikachu. However the divining rods they're holding again become lightning rods when Pikachu attacks. Jessie, however, is thrilled to see the rods led them directly to a treasure, Pikachu that is, as she and her teammates are blasted off into the distance. Pikachu is keeping up his Thunderbolt, but Pelipper remains unaffected. After Pelipper strikes Pikachu with {{m|Quick Attack}}, Brock comes to understand Winona’s grounding tactic. Ash changes his strategy and orders Pikachu to use Quick Attack. Pelipper is still grounded and Winona commands it to use {{m|Hydro Pump}}. The force of the attack causes Pelipper to de-ground itself and Ash sees a chance to use a {{m|Thunder}} attack on Pelipper. Both {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are [[fainting|knocked out]]. <br /> <br /> Winona informs Ash that the day's perfect conditions have heightened the power of her Flying Pokémon before summoning her {{p|Swellow}}, an {{shiny|alternate color}} Pokémon, as her final Pokémon, while Ash chooses Grovyle again. Ash commands Grovyle to use Leaf Blade, though Swellow is seemingly unscathed by the swipe. Swellow is then ordered to use {{m|Aerial Ace}}, a move unfamiliar to Ash. Ash uses the jump-and-Leaf-Blade combo again as a counter move, but Swellow dodges it. Instead, Swellow lands its mark and carries Grovyle into the sky before tossing it directly into the battlefield to win the round. <br /> <br /> Ash then chooses his own {{AP|Swellow}} to battle. Winona is impressed by Ash's bold choice, so the two elevate their battle platforms to incredible heights for a real sky battle. The increased altitude brings a new challenge to match; unpredictable wind currents. Ash tells his Swellow to use {{m|Wing Attack}} and Brock thinks that this is a bad idea. Winona's Swellow strikes first, causing Ash’s Swellow to lose control of its flying as it begins to descend towards the field below. Winona orders her Swellow to repeatedly Peck Ash's Swellow. Then she orders a {{m|Hyper Beam}} attack, which its opponent dodges. However, she orders this attack a second time and it's a direct hit. Ash tells Swellow to dodge and counter with {{m|Quick Attack}} but Winona's Swellow is faster and dodges this attack, countering with Aerial Ace. The battle becomes an aerial chase between the two Swallow Pokémon. Ash gets some inspiration when he sees the dust being stirred on the ground by Swellow's rapidly changing direction in mid-air close to the ground. Winona orders another Hyper Beam. Ash orders Swellow to use Quick Attack and rush towards the ground. Winona calls for Swellow to use Aerial Ace. Ash then commands his Swellow to use Wing Attack on the ground, whipping up a disorientation dust cloud. The momentary distraction allows Ash's Swellow to launch a direct hit with another Wing Attack, knocking its opponent out. Zachary officially calls the match, declare Ash as the winner. Winona presents the {{Badge|Feather}} to Ash against a beautiful sunset background, admitting that the battle truly showcased the trust between Ash and his Pokémon.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> [[File:Ash Feather Badge.png|thumb|220px|Ash holding the Feather Badge]]<br /> * {{Ash}} has his [[Gym]] battle with [[Winona]] and wins, earning the {{badge|Feather}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * [[Winona's Altaria]]<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Winona]]<br /> * {{ho|Zachary}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG085.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Lapras}}<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Chimecho}} ({{OP|James|Chimecho}})<br /> * {{p|Swellow}} ({{OP|Ash|Swellow}})<br /> * {{p|Grovyle}} ({{OP|Ash|Grovyle}})<br /> * {{p|Altaria}} ({{OP|Winona|Altaria}})<br /> * {{p|Pelipper}} ([[Winona]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Swellow}} ([[Winona]]'s; {{shiny}})<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This was the last episode to air before [[M07]] debuted in Japanese theaters.<br /> * Due to [[Megumi Hayashibara]]'s maternity leave, [[Akiko Hiramatsu]] takes over the voice of [[Jessie]], a change that will last for the next eight episodes. Hayashibara's other role, [[Brock's Mudkip]], is taken over by [[Natsuki Yoshihara]].<br /> * All of the choices in the [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]] segment would be correct, as {{p|Baltoy}} is weak to {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Water}}, {{t|Grass}}, and {{t|Bug}}, which are the featured types of the segment. Ledian could be considered to be the best choice since it would be unaffected by Baltoy's {{type|Ground}} attacks.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> [[File:AG085 error.png|thumb|200px|Grovyle's erroneous fang]]<br /> * When {{AP|Grovyle}} is facing off against {{TP|Winona|Altaria}}, {{Ash}} tells Grovyle to &quot;jump and use dodge&quot;, rather than to &quot;jump and dodge&quot;.<br /> ** Similarly, Ash tells {{AP|Swellow}} to &quot;use {{m|Quick Attack}} and after that use dive&quot;, rather than &quot;use Quick Attack and dive&quot;.<br /> * During the second round of the battle, {{p|Pelipper}} uses {{m|Steel Wing}} as a ground to render {{AP|Pikachu}}'s attack ineffective. In the real world, electricity is only dangerous when the target is grounded and not the other way round. This is a consistent error about electricity in the Pokémon universe. {{an|Brock}} also describes the technique as protecting Pelipper &quot;like a lightning rod&quot;. Lightning rods act by ''diverting'' electricity into the rod and away from the building, not by acting as a ground for the building.<br /> * When {{TRT}} performs their {{motto}}, [[Jessie]]'s hair end appears to be by her leg, instead of behind [[James]].<br /> * When Pikachu falls down after getting hit by Pelipper's {{m|Quick Attack}}, part of his tail is missing.<br /> * When Ash goes to pick up Pikachu, his platform is still raised in the background.<br /> * When [[Winona]] sends out her {{Shiny}} {{p|Swellow}}, sparkles do not come out of Swellow's {{i|Poké Ball}}.<br /> * In the scene where Winona's Swellow dodges {{AP|Grovyle}}'s {{m|Leaf Blade}}, Grovyle appears to have a fang.<br /> * In the scene right before Ash's Swellow hits the ground with {{m|Wing Attack}}, the white aura covering its wings disappears for a split second.<br /> * In the Brazilian dub, when James discovers that the false Chimecho is actually a Hoppip, Team Rocket refers to it as a {{p|Skiploom}}.<br /> * In the Hindi MarvelHQ [[dub]], Brock incorrectly claims that Wing Attack causes some damage to the user if used against a {{type|Flying}} Pokémon.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * In the original Japanese version, Meowth says that he had said &quot;dowsing machine&quot;, not &quot;dancing machine&quot;. In the English dub, Meowth says that he had said the trio will dance to the treasure, not to the disco.<br /> <br /> ====[[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]====<br /> * Question: Trainers, which one of these Pokémon is the best choice to battle {{p|Baltoy}}?<br /> * Choices: {{p|Lapras}}, {{p|Meganium}}, {{p|Ledian}}<br /> * Answer: OK, Trainers!

It was [[TM01]] in Generation III and [[Generation IV]].<br /> <br /> ==Effect==<br /> ===Generation III===<br /> Focus Punch is a decreased [[priority]] move. The user of Focus Punch will start focusing at the beginning of the turn the move is used, then execute the move Focus Punch at a priority of -3, unless it was hit by another Pokémon's damaging move before executing Focus Punch, in which case it will lose its focus and be unable to attack that turn. The user's focus will not be broken if its {{m|substitute}} is attacked or if it is hit by a [[status move]].<br /> <br /> Its charging message is displayed before any other moves.<br /> <br /> [[PP]] is consumed even if the user loses its focus and fails to execute the move. Even if the user loses focus, it is considered the last move used (for the purposes of {{m|Encore}}, etc.).<br /> <br /> If a Pokémon becomes locked into Focus Punch by Encore but selected a different move that turn and hasn't already moved, it will use Focus Punch at the priority of the move it selected, but the charging message does not appear and it will still lose its focus if it took damage from an attack that turn.<br /> <br /> Focus Punch can also be used as part of a [[Contest combination|Pokémon Contest combination]], with the user gaining extra three appeal points if move {{m|Focus Energy}} was used in the prior turn.<br /> <br /> If Focus Punch is known by a [[wild Pokémon]] (via {{m|Transform}}, {{m|Mimic}}, or challenging the [[Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Frontier]]), and the player unsuccessfully attempts to flee the battle while the opposing Pokémon has selected Focus Punch for use during the turn, the move will be executed immediately without the charging animation or message.<br /> <br /> ===Generation IV===<br /> If the user is hit before the attack, it will say, &quot;&lt;Pokémon&gt; used Focus Punch!&quot; before it says the &quot;&lt;Pokémon&gt; lost its focus and couldn't move!&quot;. Wild Pokémon executing this move while the player unsuccessfully attempts to flee will always display the charge-up animation before executing the move.<br /> <br /> ===Generation V onward===<br /> It no longer states &quot;&lt;Pokémon&gt; used Focus Punch!&quot; preceding &quot;&lt;Pokémon&gt; lost its focus and couldn't move!&quot;<br /> <br /> PP is no longer consumed if the user loses its focus and fails to execute the move. If the user loses focus, it is ignored when determining the last move used (for the purposes of {{m|Encore}}, etc.).<br /> <br /> If a Pokémon becomes locked into Focus Punch by Encore but selected a different move that turn and hasn't already moved, it will use Focus Punch at the priority of the move it selected regardless of whether it took damage that turn, and the charging message will not appear.<br /> <br /> ==Description==<br /> {{movedesc|Fighting}}<br /> {{movedescentry|{{gameabbrev3|RSE}}{{gameabbrevss|Colo}}{{gameabbrevss|XD}}|A powerful loyalty attack.

{{Movefoot|Fighting|1}}<br /> <br /> ==In other games==<br /> ==={{g|Mystery Dungeon series}}===<br /> In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]], Focus Punch is a move with 20 base power, 100% accuracy, and 10 PP. Unlike in main series, in Mystery Dungeon the move is similar to moves like {{m|Sky Attack}} or {{m|Dig}} where the user waits on first turn and then attacks in the second, regardless of whether they got hit. This attack hits enemy in the front; this move's damage is doubled at the end of damage calculation. Due to now being a two-turn move, this move cannot be linked. <br /> <br /> In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness|Explorers of Time and Darkness]], the move's PP is decreased to 8.<br /> <br /> In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky|Explorers of Sky]], the move's power is raised to 55.<br /> <br /> ===Description===<br /> {{translation notice|Japanese}}<br /> {{movedesc|Fighting}}<br /> {{movedescentry|{{gameabbrevmd|RB}}|The user gains the Focus Punch status, and it attacks on the next turn.

Thus, they and Focus Punch itself are the only attacks that can strike a Pokémon in the same turn it successfully uses Focus Punch, without the use of {{m|Quash}} or {{m|After You}}.<br /> * In Generation III, {{DL|List of glitches in Generation III|Focus Punch recall bug|a glitch}} will cause the user of Focus Punch to prepare to use it, but not execute the attack. This glitch is triggered by selecting Focus Punch in a [[Double Battle]] on the first Pokémon, pressing the “B” button, then switching out the first Pokémon. When the battle is conducted, the first Pokémon will tighten its focus in preparation for Focus Punch, then switch out. This is due to charging turn having a priority of +8, and therefore being executed before switch out.<br /> * {{p|Shroomish}} and {{p|Togekiss}} are able to learn Focus Punch, despite lacking any visible hands to use the move.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Langtable|color={{fighting color}}|bordercolor={{fighting color light}}<br /> |zh_yue=真氣拳 ''{{tt|Jānhei Kyùhn|Vitality Punch}}'' {{tt|*|Games}}&lt;br&gt;集中猛擊 ''{{tt|Jaahpjūng Máahnggīk|Focus Punch}}'' {{tt|*|Anime}}&lt;br&gt;火焰拳頭 ''{{tt|Fóyihm Kyùhntàuh|Flame Punch}}'' {{tt|*|M10}}<br /> |zh_cmn=真氣拳 / 真气拳 ''{{tt|Zhēnqì Quán|Vitality Punch}}'' {{tt|*|Games}}&lt;br&gt;集中猛擊 ''{{tt|Jízhōng Měngjī|Focus Punch}}'' {{tt|*|Pre-Gen VII Media}}<br /> |cs=Soustředěná rána<br /> |nl=Focusslag<br /> |fi=Huomioisku/{{tt|Täysmäjäys|Also used for Mach Punch}}&lt;br&gt;Hirmuisku ([[AG145]])<br /> |fr=Mitra-Poing<br /> |de=Power-Punch<br /> |el=Εστιασμένη Γροθιά<br /> |hi=फोकस मुक्का ''Focus Mukka''<br /> |hu=Fókusz Ütés<br /> |id=Pukulan Semangat<br /> |it=Centripugno<br /> |ko=힘껏펀치 ''Himkkeot Punch''<br /> |pl=Centrocios{{tt|*|Diamond and Pearl series onwards}}&lt;br&gt;Lodowa Pięść{{tt|*|AG030 - Translation error}}<br /> |pt_br=Soco Concentrado ([[JN007]]-present, manga)&lt;br&gt;Soco Focalizado<br /> |pt_eu=Punho Focus (Pokémon Chronicles)&lt;br&gt;Soco Focalizado/Soco Focado (DP series)&lt;br&gt;Soco Certeiro<br /> |sr=Fokusirana Pesnica<br /> |es_eu=Puño Certero<br /> |es_la=Golpe Centrado&lt;br&gt;Golpe Enfocado ([[AG169]])<br /> |sv=Fokusslag<br /> |ro=Lovitura Concentrată<br /> |vi=Hào Khí Quyền<br /> }}<br /> {{-}}<br /> {{Generation III TMs}}<br /> {{Generation IV TMs}}<br /> {{-}}<br /> {{Project Moves and Abilities notice}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Decreased priority moves]]<br /> [[Category:Punching moves]]<br /> [[Category:Moves usable in Pokémon Sword and Shield]]<br /> [[Category:Moves in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity]]<br /> [[Category:Moves in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Rescue Team DX]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Power-Punch]]<br /> [[es:Puño certero]]<br /> [[fr:Mitra-Poing]]<br /> [[it:Centripugno]]<br /> [[ja:きあいパンチ]]<br /> [[zh:真气拳（招式）]]</div>

While they battle, Team Rocket is busy digging a tunnel under the Gym.<br /> <br /> Norman's Slakoth begins with Hidden Power, and Pikachu can't hit it. Pikachu is then immobilized by Slakoth's Blizzard, so Ash switches the Electric-type out for Torkoal. Torkoal takes out Slakoth with Flamethrower.<br /> <br /> In turn, Torkoal is taken down by a Scratch attack from Vigoroth. Ash sends Pikachu back out, and when the two Pokémon make physical contact, Vigoroth is paralyzed by Pikachu's Static ability. Pikachu uses Iron Tail to knock out Vigoroth, but also faints.<br /> <br /> In the end Ash's Grovyle faces off against Norman's Slaking. Slaking manages to counter all of Grovyle's attacks, and then uses Earthquake. The shaking disrupts Team Rocket's plans, and puts them up against some angry Dugtrio.<br /> <br /> Low on HP, Grovyle's Overgrow ability increases its Attack power, and the Grass-type knocks Slaking out with a combination of Pound and Leaf Blade. All his Pokémon defeated, Norman awards the Balance Badge to Ash.<br /> <br /> However, Max is upset at his father's loss, so he runs off with the badge. Norman talks things over with Max, explaining that the experience of losing is just as important as winning. Max returns the badge to Ash, who celebrates winning his fifth Gym badge.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} enters the [[Petalburg Gym]], ready for his {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Norman]]. Norman tells him that he's been waiting for another fight with Ash ever since their [[AG003|last battle]], and Ash says he's more than willing to take Norman up on his offer! Watching from the sidelines, {{an|May}} says she's excited to see how the match turns out. [[Max]] tells her that their dad is certain to win. {{an|Brock}} and [[Caroline]] tell him that he should just relax and enjoy the match without worrying about the final result. Outside of town, {{TRT}} begins construction on their new secret base. {{MTR}} says that after they finish building their base, {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}} will be certain to give them a promotion. With the thoughts of corporate credit cards as their motivation, all of Team Rocket, including {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, begin working. Back at the Gym, {{ho|Kenny}} is the [[Battle judge|referee]] announces the rules of the match: three {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but only Ash is allowed substitutions. Raising his flags, Kenny signals for the match to begin and both Ash and Norman send out their first Pokémon, Norman's {{p|Slakoth}} against [[Ash's Pikachu]]. Utilizing Pikachu's {{stat|Speed}}, Ash orders Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}}, Slakoth dodges and counterattacks with {{m|Shadow Ball}}. Jumping out of the way, Pikachu attacks with {{m|Iron Tail}} but misses once again as Slakoth leans out of the way. Dazed, Pikachu is unable to dodge Slakoth's {{m|Hidden Power}} and is blasted across the arena.<br /> <br /> On the sidelines, Brock tells May and Max what kind of attack strategy their father is using. He knew from watching Ash before that he favored using Pikachu as an opener, using his powerful speed attacks to knock the enemy off balance and gain control of the battle. By using a slow Pokémon like Slakoth who could dodge Pikachu's attacks, Norman was forcing Ash to fight at his pace, giving him control over the match. As Pikachu recovers from Hidden Power, Ash realizes that he needs to change his strategy. He decides to try {{t|Electric}} [[Move|attacks]] and orders Pikachu to attack with {{m|Thunder}}. However, Slakoth dodges this attack as well and responds with {{m|Blizzard}}. The incredible cold keeps Pikachu from attacking back, so Ash recalls him and calls out {{AP|Torkoal}} instead. Torkoal uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, which easily blasts through Slakoth's Blizzard and scores a direct hit, [[fainting|knocking Slakoth out]]. With Slakoth out of commission, Norman calls out his next Pokémon, {{p|Vigoroth}}. Dodging Torkoal's {{m|Overheat}}, Vigoroth knocks Torkoal out with {{m|Scratch}}. With Torkoal down, Ash sends Pikachu back into the arena. Brock explains that by using the hyperactive Vigoroth right after the slow laid back Slakoth, Norman is able to disorient his opponents and knock them off balance, as the skills necessary to defeat Vigoroth are completely different from those used against Slakoth. Meanwhile, Team Rocket continues construction on their new hideout. Yelling through a megaphone, Meowth orders [[Jessie]] and [[James]] to work harder. They respond by dropping a box on him and telling him to help out too.<br /> <br /> In the arena, Vigoroth dodges a Thunderbolt from Pikachu and attacks with Scratch. Pikachu blocks the attack with Iron Tail but is hit with a surprise attack when Vigoroth uses Flamethrower. Max says that it's amazing that Vigoroth can use an attack like Flamethrower, causing Caroline to tell him that Norman is fighting Ash more seriously than he fights normal {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. May says that Ash should substitute Pikachu, but Brock tells her that if he does that, his only reserve Pokémon will be the already injured Pikachu. He has no choice but to use Pikachu as long as possible. Sizing up Vigoroth, Ash suddenly comes up with a plan. He orders Pikachu to use Quick Attack, dodging a Flamethrower from Vigoroth. As Pikachu closes the distance, Norman orders Vigoroth to use Scratch, but is surprised when Ash tells Pikachu to take the hit. Vigoroth's Scratch attack hits home, but the powerful Pokémon is suddenly paralyzed by Pikachu's innate {{a|Static}} [[Ability]]. Seizing the opportunity, Pikachu attacks with Iron Tail, knocking Vigoroth out. However the effort is too much for Pikachu and he passes out as well, resulting in a double KO. After removing Pikachu from the battlefield, Ash and Norman send out their last remaining Pokémon, pitting {{TP|Norman|Slaking}} against {{AP|Grovyle}}. Ash attacks first by ordering Grovyle to use {{m|Bullet Seed}}, but Slaking easily blocks the attack with its hands, sustaining no damage at all. Grovyle attacks again with {{m|Leaf Blade}}, but Slaking grabs it mid-attack and tosses Grovyle back across the arena. Slaking begins to attack with {{m|Focus Punch}} but is stopped after Grovyle hits it in the face with Bullet Seed. The attack angers Slaking, who begins to go into a rage. It attacks with a powerful {{m|Earthquake}}.<br /> <br /> In their new hideout, Team Rocket feels the effects of Slaking's Earthquake, which rouses a group of nearby {{p|Dugtrio}}. Blaming the Dugtrio for the Earthquake, Jessie kicks a rock at them. Angrily, the Dugtrio begin to chase Team Rocket around their cave. Meanwhile, Grovyle dodges the Earthquake by jumping. It attempts a {{m|Pound}} attack, but Slaking grabs it in midair and tosses Grovyle into the ceiling. Grovyle counterattacks with Bullet Seed, but Slaking blocks with a powerful {{m|Hyper Beam}}, which cuts through the Bullet Seed and sends Grovyle flying. Watching Grovyle struggle to its feet, Norman suggests that Ash should withdraw from the match for Grovyle's safety. Ash begins to consider it, but stops when Grovyle indicates that it wants to keep fighting. Ash tells Grovyle to show Norman what it's made out of. Inspired by Ash's confidence, Grovyle activates its {{a|Overgrow}} Ability, which powers up its {{type|Grass}} attacks.<br /> <br /> Leaping back into combat, Grovyle dodges both an Earthquake and Slaking's clumsy attempts to grab it. It begins bouncing around the arena. Dodging a Hyper Beam, Grovyle hits Slaking with a powerful Pound. Norman congratulates Ash for his recovery, but tells him that he'll need more than just speed to beat Slaking. He orders Slaking to attack with Focus Punch while Ash tells Grovyle to use Leaf Blade. The two attack each other at the same time, and after a moment's pause, Slaking falls to the ground. Shocked at his father's loss, Max can only stare in disbelief as Brock and May congratulate Ash on his victory. Later, Norman presents Ash with the {{badge|Balance}} - however, before he can give it away, Max grabs it and runs away. Locking himself in the Gym's greenhouse, he tells everybody gathered outside that it was unacceptable for his dad to lose the match and that it's not okay for a Trainer like him to lose in a Pokémon battle. Norman tells him that losing is just as important as winning and that sometimes life's most important lessons are learned through losing. Ash tells Max that he really doesn't need the Badge, beating Norman in a fight taught him enough that he'd be satisfied without one. Touched by their words, Max comes out and gives the [[Badge]] back, but not before promising his Dad that they'll battle too, once he becomes a Trainer.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> [[File:Ash Balance Badge.png|thumb|220px|Ash holding the Balance Badge]]<br /> * [[Ash's Pikachu]] is revealed to have {{a|Static}} as his [[Ability]].<br /> * [[Ash's Grovyle]] is revealed to have {{a|Overgrow}} as its Ability.<br /> * {{Ash}} has his Gym match with [[Norman]] and wins, earning him the {{badge|Balance}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Norman]]<br /> * [[Caroline]]<br /> * {{ho|Kenny}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG070.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Slugma}}<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Grovyle}} ({{OP|Ash|Grovyle}})<br /> * {{p|Torkoal}} ({{OP|Ash|Torkoal}})<br /> * {{p|Vigoroth}} ([[Norman]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Slakoth}} ([[Norman]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Slaking}} ({{OP|Norman|Slaking}})<br /> * {{p|Dugtrio}} (×3)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * [[Challenger!!]] replaced [[Advance Adventure]] as the [[List of Japanese opening themes|Japanese opening theme]].<br /> * The dub episode's title is a reference to the geopolitical concept &quot;{{wp|balance of power}}&quot;.<br /> * Music from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' is used in this episode.<br /> * {{TRT}} doesn't recite the {{motto}} in this episode.<br /> * This marks the first time a main character's Pokémon has activated their [[Ability]].<br /> * This episode aired on the seventh anniversary of ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''.<br /> * [[OK!]] is used as background music for the battle between {{TP|Norman|Slaking}} and {{AP|Grovyle}}. <br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * In the {{pmin|Latin America}}n dub, when {{Ash}} orders Grovyle to use {{m|Leaf Blade}}, he refers to the move as {{m|Razor Leaf}}, which is a common error.<br /> ** Also, when {{an|Brock}} explains the strategy of [[Norman]] between {{p|Slakoth}} and {{p|Vigoroth}}, he calls Slakoth &quot;Slaking&quot;.<br /> * When [[Jessie]]'s eyes brim with tears, her lipstick disappears.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * Max says that Norman is so strong that he will become a member of the Elite Four in the English dub.

Win the Blazing Battle!!'') is the 56th episode of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire]]'', and the 330th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on December 18, 2003 and in the United States on November 20, 2004.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_16-going-going-yawn/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash uses Corphish in his Gym battle with Flannery. Flannery chooses Magcargo first, which is defeated by Corphish's Crabhammer.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Team Rocket is digging a tunnel to steal Magcargo and Pikachu during the battle, but they accidentally hit a pipe and are sent blasting off into a hot spring.<br /> <br /> Ash recalls Corphish and sends out Treecko, hitting Slugma hard but getting burned by Flamethrower. Ash sends out Corphish again, but Slugma uses Yawn to put Corphish to sleep. Pikachu goes out to battle next.<br /> <br /> Pikachu knocks out Slugma with a powerful Thunder attack, but Flannery calls out Torkoal. Pikachu can't get through Torkoal's Iron Defense, and is KO'd by Overheat.<br /> <br /> Treecko is sent out again, but is quickly knocked out by Overheat. Ash sends out the sleeping Corphish, who takes some damage before finally waking up. To get through the Iron Defense, Corphish hits Torkoal with Crabhammer from the side, flipping the Fire-type over and then knocking it out with Bubble Beam.<br /> <br /> After the battle, Flannery receives some advice and praise from her grandfather, and presents Ash with his Heat Badge.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} is ready to earn his fourth Badge against [[Flannery]], the Gym Leader from [[Lavaridge Town]], and intends to charge ahead with {{AP|Corphish}}. When the battle begins, Flannery begins with {{p|Magcargo}}, and Ash sends out Corphish. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} is devising a plan to steal Magcargo and {{AP|Pikachu}} right out from under them using their famous holes. As the battle starts, Ash starts off with a {{m|Bubble Beam}}, landing a direct hit. Flannery makes the next move with a {{m|Flamethrower}}, but Ash uses Corphish's {{m|Harden}} to minimize the damage taken. Ash continues to show his confidence, much to Flannery's distaste. As the battle goes on, Ash tries to use Corphish's {{m|Vise Grip}} to end it, but Flannery remembers something her grandfather said, and uses {{m|Reflect}} to completely block the hit. Ash is eventually able to take out Magcargo with a Crabhammer. Team Rocket is working hard on their tunnel, when suddenly, they hit a water pipe which sends them blasting off in the occurring geyser.<br /> <br /> Ash and Flannery both recall their Pokémon. Ash sends out {{AP|Treecko}}, much to everyone's surprise since its weak against Fire attacks, and Flannery sends out {{p|Slugma}}. Treecko successfully dodges Slugma's attacks and tries to move in for a {{m|Quick Attack}}, but right before it hits, it bounces right back, due to the Reflect that still protects Flannery's team. Treecko keeps attacking, eventually hitting with a {{m|Bullet Seed}} from close range, but also receives a nasty {{status|burn}} on its leg. Ash recalls Treecko and sends Corphish back out. Corphish attempts a Vise Grip, but is sent straight to {{status|sleep}} by a {{m|Yawn}}. Ash tries vainly to wake it up, but is eventually forced to recall it. Pikachu runs into the battle, dodging Slugma's Flamethrowers and manages to end the Reflect with Quick Attack. As the battle continues, Slugma hides in its {{m|Smog}} in order to attack Pikachu. Pikachu senses and finds Slugma and uses {{m|Iron Tail}}, but Slugma avoids it and uses Flamethrower which hits Pikachu. Pikachu then unleashes a powerful {{m|Thunderbolt}}, electrifying the Smog and shocking Slugma. Flannery attempts a Yawn but Pikachu quickly uses Quick Attack and then {{m|Thunder}} to knock out Slugma.<br /> <br /> Flannery's final Pokémon is {{p|Torkoal}}. Pikachu attempts both Thunderbolt and {{m|Iron Tail}}, but is shocked to discover that Torkoal's {{m|Iron Defense}} makes it completely useless. Torkoal uses {{m|Sludge Bomb}}; Pikachu dodges two bombs and gets hit by one. Ash tells Pikachu to not give up, and to use Thunder, but Iron Defense blocks it. Torkoal then uses an incredibly powerful {{m|Overheat}}, landing a direct hit on Pikachu and knocking him out. Ash is now left with two Pokémon, an injured Treecko and a sleeping Corphish. Torkoal's Overheat quickly takes out Treecko, and Ash is left with Corphish. After taking multiple hits, Corphish finally wakes up. With Corphish awake, Ash must figure out how to counter Torkoal's Iron Defense. After hitting it on its side and forcing it out, Ash quickly moves in with Bubble Beam, knocking out Torkoal and winning the battle, earning Ash the Heat Badge.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> [[File:Ash Heat Badge.png|thumb|220px|Ash holding the Heat Badge]]<br /> * {{Ash}} battles [[Flannery]] and wins, earning the {{badge|Heat}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Flannery]]<br /> * [[Mr. Moore]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG056.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Seviper}}<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Treecko}} ({{OP|Ash|Treecko}})<br /> * {{p|Corphish}} ({{OP|Ash|Corphish}})<br /> * {{p|Slugma}} ([[Flannery]]'s; Meg)<br /> * {{p|Magcargo}} ([[Flannery]]'s; Mag)<br /> * {{p|Torkoal}} ([[Flannery]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Murkrow}}<br /> * {{p|Ursaring}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This marks the first time a Pokémon has been {{status|burn}}ed in the {{pkmn|anime}}.<br /> * The English dub title is based on the baseball-associated phrase &quot;{{wp|Going, Going, Gone}}&quot;.<br /> * {{TRT}} doesn't recite their {{motto}} in this episode.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * Before [[Flannery]] and {{Ash}} begin their [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}, their Pokémon aren't seen on the field when {{TRT}} spies on them.<br /> * In the scene after Flannery commands {{p|Magcargo}} to dodge {{AP|Corphish}}'s {{m|Crabhammer}}, the white aura that normally surrounds only Corphish's pincer is surrounding its whole body instead.<br /> * After Torkoal knocked out {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{an|Brock}} says that Torkoal defeated Pikachu with just one attack, despite Torkoal hitting Pikachu moments earlier with {{m|Sludge Bomb}}.<br /> * When Flannery's Torkoal used Flamethrower on Ash's Corphish, it emerged from its shell like it had just used Iron Defense, even though it hadn't.<br /> * In the Pokémon Trainer's Choice, the answer being {{p|Seviper}} was incorrect, due to {{p|Forretress}}’s {{t|Steel|immunity}} to {{t|Poison}}.

Also, Forretress's name is spelled &quot;Foretress&quot;.<br /> * Before the battle begins, Ash says it will be an easy match because it's Flannery's first match as a Gym Leader, but in the previous episode, she told that her ''previous'' opponent liked to use the move Dig, which means it isn't her first match as a Gym Leader.<br /> * When Flannery sends out Torkoal, its mouth closes before it finishes saying its name.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * Jessie's cleavage is edited when she is wearing her bathing suit in the English dub.<br /> <br /> ====[[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]====<br /> * Question: Trainers, Which Pokémon is the best choice to battle {{p|Forretress}}?<br /> * Choices: {{p|Minun}}, {{p|Swellow}}, {{p|Seviper}}<br /> * Answer: Ok, Trainers!

Team Rocket, of course, wants to steal Hippopotas, but between Hippopotas's Yawn attack and Ash, Team Rocket barely even manages to slow our heroes down.<br /> <br /> Of course, Team Rocket won't quit that easily. They come back for another try, using a piece of fruit to lure Hippopotas into their balloon. But when Hippopotas uses Sand Tomb, their plans are sunk just as fast as their balloon, and Hippopotas happily returns to Ash. Next Ash has to cross a narrow bridge across a river, and when Team Rocket attacks, Hippopotas falls in the river! For a Ground-type like Hippopotas, that's bad news.<br /> <br /> Hippopotas is rushed to the nearest Pokémon Center, where Nurse Joy has it feeling fine in no time. The quest for the Hippopotas herd resumes, and the gang encounters a strangely familiar group of sand salesmen. They turn out to be Team Rocket, of course, but the thieving trio didn't count on Hippopotas and that Yawn attack, which puts Jessie to sleep. Meowth and James' Cacnea are no match for Pikachu and Ash's Turtwig, and once they're gone, our heroes keep searching until they find the Hippopotas herd. The lost Hippopotas is back where it belongs and Ash is headed back on the road to Hearthome City—after a Yawn-induced nap, that is!&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> After a lunch break, {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} [[recall]] their Pokémon and prepare to hit the road once again. {{AP|Pikachu}} suddenly imitates {{AP|Turtwig}}, and Brock realizes that Turtwig went by itself into the woods. Following its trail, they find Turtwig, who points them to a cliff where a frightened {{OBP|Hippopotas|recurring}} is trapped. Deciding to help it, Ash climbs down the cliff, with the help of a rope onto the ledge where Hippopotas is. Ash tries to reassure Hippopotas, but he is too frightened and bites Ash’s hand. Ash then calls Pikachu who slides down the rope, and comforts Hippopotas, with success. Ash promptly hoists Hippopotas into his arms and they are lifted to safety by Brock and Dawn. Brock hands Hippopotas some [[Pokémon food]], however it doesn’t like the taste. Instead, Hippopotas walks over to a nearby fruit tree, so Ash gets a fruit for him, which Hippopotas devours whole.<br /> <br /> Ash and his friends prepare to leave, saying goodbye to Hippopotas, however the young Pokémon continues to follow them. Suddenly {{si|Rhonda}} and her staff from ''[[Sinnoh Now]]'' show up for a scoop about a herd of Hippopotas. Rhonda instantly recognizes the group and informs them that a male Hippopotas got lost from his family. After hearing the story about his family, Ash’s group decides to help Hippopotas return to his family.<br /> <br /> They set off in searching for the herd with Hippopotas and the TV crew following them, but they all fall into a pitfall trap set up by {{TRT}} who takes Hippopotas in their [[Team Rocket's mechas|balloon]]. Being scared, he responds with a {{m|Yawn}}, which hits {{MTR}}. Then Ash sends out his Turtwig which uses {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut Hippopotas from his restraints. He falls and is caught by Ash releasing another Yawn which hits Brock and {{si|Jack}}. [[Jessie]] is left feeling frustrated as Ash and the others flee with the Hippopotas while Meowth drifts off to sleep. [[James]] convinces Jessie that they should go after Hippopotas for the {{an|Giovanni|boss}}, even providing his own [[boss fantasy]].<br /> <br /> Brock suddenly succumbs to the Yawn attack, collapsing on the ground. Ash and Dawn notice Team Rocket flying overhead and decide to hide behind a nearby bush. They quickly realize they forgot Brock, though {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} drags Brock behind the same bush. Meanwhile, Rhonda is annoyed as she is forced to hold the microphone boom while one of her staff carries the now sleeping Jack on his back. Later, Ash and his friends stop at a roadblock, where a bridge is under construction. While distracted, Team Rocket lures Hippopotas into their balloon with the help of a fishing rod and a bait. Then Hippopotas uses {{m|Sand Tomb}} to bring the balloon down to the ground. Ash sends out {{AP|Aipom}} who uses {{m|Focus Punch}} to send Team Rocket blasting off. Back on Ash's head, Hippopotas releases another Yawn, this time on Dawn, making her drowsy, and eventually fall asleep.<br /> <br /> Next, they continue their trek with Dawn being carried on Brock's back. They come across another bridge, which they proceed to cross. Team Rocket shows up and uses a net to capture Hippopotas. Ash jumps on the net which breaks and they both fall into the river below. Then Brock sends out Croagunk which uses {{m|Poison Sting}} to send Team Rocket blasting off again. Dawn turns her attention to Ash and Hippopotas, and sends her {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}} outs to rescue them. Once ashore, Dawn immediately dries Hippopotas because he is weak to water before taking him to the nearest [[Pokémon Center]] for treatment. After a check-up, [[Nurse Joy]] places Hippopotas in a box of sand to rest and dry himself. Ash and his friends retrieve some more desert sand which helps Hippopotas make a quick recovery. Then they set off in searching of the herd again.<br /> <br /> On their way out, the group spot some roadside sand traders, none other than Team Rocket in [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguise]]. Not recognizing the trio, Hippopotas releases another Yawn on Jessie and Ash decides to let Hippopotas try the sand, before buying it. Team Rocket closes the bag, trapping Hippopotas inside, before revealing their true identity and rushing to the balloon. As they recite the {{motto}}, Jessie starts to fall asleep, and Hippopotas escapes from the bag. Ash and his friends are furious, and respond back with own rip-off of the Team Rocket motto to intimidate James. James calls {{TP|James|Cacnea}} out to battle and Ash sends out Turtwig. Cacnea unleashes a {{m|Pin Missile}}, but Turtwig dodges and uses {{m|Bite}} then Razor Leaf followed by a {{m|Tackle}}. Then Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} and sends Team Rocket blasting off again for good as Jessie wakes up.<br /> <br /> The group heads off to a large desert, where they spot recent Hippopotas [[footprint]]s. Aside from the sand dunes, nothing is in sight. Hippopotas then calls out to its friends, resulting in plenty of Hippopotas popping out of the sand. They leave Hippopotas there, but, before that, Ash tosses him a fruit, which he gobbles down in a single bite. Hippopotas replies by releasing another Yawn, which lulls Ash and Pikachu to sleep. Later, the group continue onwards to [[Hearthome City]] with a sleeping Ash being carried on Brock's back while Dawn holds Pikachu in her arms.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} encounter a roaming {{pkmn2|wild}} {{OBP|Hippopotas|recurring}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Hippopotas}} ({{OBP|Hippopotas|recurring|anime}})<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * {{an|Dawn}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * {{an|Giovanni}} ([[Boss fantasy|fantasy]])<br /> * ''[[Sinnoh Now]]'' staff<br /> ** {{si|Rhonda}}<br /> ** {{si|Jack}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Piplup}} ({{OP|Dawn|Piplup}})<br /> * {{p|Aipom}} ({{OP|Ash|Aipom}})<br /> * {{p|Staravia}} ({{OP|Ash|Staravia}})<br /> * {{p|Turtwig}} ({{OP|Ash|Turtwig}})<br /> * {{p|Buneary}} ({{OP|Dawn|Buneary}})<br /> * {{p|Pachirisu}} ({{OP|Dawn|Pachirisu}})<br /> * {{p|Buizel}} ({{OP|Dawn|Buizel}})<br /> * {{p|Sudowoodo}} ({{OP|Brock|Sudowoodo}})<br /> * {{p|Croagunk}} ({{OP|Brock|Croagunk}})<br /> * {{p|Happiny}} ({{OP|Brock|Happiny}})<br /> * {{p|Cacnea}} ({{OP|James|Cacnea}})<br /> * {{p|Chansey}} ({{OP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}})<br /> * {{p|Hippopotas}} ({{OBP|Hippopotas|recurring|anime}}; debut)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Music from ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' and ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', as well as [[Because the Sky is There]], are used as background music.<br /> * [[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]] background music is used in this episode.<br /> * {{OBP|Hippopotas|recurring}} is seen riding atop {{Ash}}'s head (at Ash's insistence), despite weighing over one hundred pounds (almost 50 kilograms).<br /> ** He also doesn't weigh down {{TRT}}'s balloon until after he uses {{m|Sand Tomb}}.

It was first broadcast in Japan on April 28, 2005 and in the United States on March 11, 2006. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/08_33-saved-by-the-beldum/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Where's Morrison? That's the question on Ash's mind as he trains his Pokémon in preparation for the big tournament in Ever Grande City. When Morrison finally makes his appearance, he and Ash immediately start up their friendly rivalry again, which leads to them falling into a Team Rocket pit trap! Tyson and his Meowth in boots show up just in time to help out—Tyson's Meowth defeats Team Rocket's Meowth once more, using Iron Tail to send the villains flying.<br /> <br /> Once everyone is registered for the tournament, the one-on-one preliminary rounds get underway. Morrison and Beldum face a Trainer with an Electabuzz, and Morrison is relying solely on Beldum's Take Down attack. This doesn't work too well until Beldum evolves into Metang and wins the match. As for Tyson, his Meowth takes some hits from a Persian, then comes back to win its first round. But once Persian is knocked out, Meowth charges after it and Tyson must recall it to its Poké Ball.<br /> <br /> Tyson later explains why his Meowth is so troubled. When he met Meowth, it was lying hurt in a forest after a Persian defeated it in a battle for leadership. Tyson took care of Meowth, which was how it got its boots—originally they were just to help protect its injured legs. But to this day it still has a grudge against Persian.<br /> <br /> And now it's Ash's turn to battle! Pikachu handily wins its round, so all three Trainers can look forward to their next challenge in the Hoenn League.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> The day before the [[Ever Grande Conference]] is due to begin, {{Ash}} continues his {{pkmn|training}} regime with his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} as {{ashfr}} watch on. During the session, {{AP|Glalie}} unleashes an {{m|Ice Beam}} and scores an unintentional direct hit on Ash’s rival [[Morrison]]. After recovering, Morrison reveals his eighth [[Badge]] to the group, admitting that he can now compete in the Hoenn League, which {{an|Brock}} congratulates him on. Not wanting to be left out, Glalie pops up behind Ash's head to say hello, which Morrison instantly recognizes as the {{p|Snorunt}} that he had met the [[AG118|first time]] he and Ash met each other two months ago. Spotting the rest of Ash's Pokémon team, Morrison calls out his team for comparison: {{p|Growlithe}}, {{p|Gligar}}, {{p|Swampert}}, {{p|Steelix}}, {{p|Girafarig}} and his main Pokémon {{TP|Morrison|Beldum}}, all of which receive approving comments from both Ash and Brock.<br /> <br /> Soon enough, Ash and Morrison cannot keep their friendly rivalry suppressed for too long, as they soon get excited at the chance to compete again and run off together into a nearby forest leaving Brock and both their Pokémon teams in the dust. As Ash and Morrison race against each other, they fall into pitfall trap prepared by {{TRT}}. Ash and Morrison both shout angrily at the troublesome trio, who are looking down triumphantly at their Pokémon-less captures. Team Rocket then stirs up the two boys as they brag about how they're going to take off all their Pokémon. However, before Team Rocket can go claim their prize, {{ho|Tyson}}, along with his {{TP|Tyson|Meowth}} stop them in their tracks. As Meowth becomes aggravated at Tyson's Meowth's blunt taunt, Ash happily recognizes the voice of the boy as Tyson, another Conference hopeful he [[AG125|met recently]]. Meowth soon forgets all about taking Ash and Morrison's Pokémon, ignoring his teammate’s pleas. He extends his claws and hurls himself at Tyson's calm Meowth. Tyson, as calm as his Pokémon, commands his Meowth to perform an {{m|Iron Tail}} attack. Its tail glows and hardens, and it swings around, smashing its tail right into his less experienced foe. The power of this attack sends Meowth flying backwards straight into his comrades causing Team Rocket to blast off into the depths of the forest.<br /> <br /> With Team Rocket gone, Ash and Morrison climb out of the pitfall trap and thank Tyson for his assistance. Suddenly, Brock runs up, breathless and with a worried look on his face as he reminds Morrison that he still needs to register for the Conference. Scared that he might not be able to take part in the League after all his hard work of collecting Badges, Morrison instantly runs off to register, leaving a trail of dust behind him. At the [[Pokémon Center]], Morrison manages to register for the tournament with five minutes to spare and reunites with Ash, his friends and Tyson. Morrison again thanks Tyson for his assistance. Meowth tips its hat before storming off, seemingly agitated. Tyson decides that he should leave as well, admitting that Meowth had been through a lot. Tyson wishes Ash and Morrison all the best in the preliminaries, and the pair reply confidently.<br /> <br /> The preliminaries, a set of one-on-one matches kick off the Ever Grande Conference. Morrison is up first, and selects his Beldum to take on {{OBP|Jump|AG126}} and his {{p|Electabuzz}}. To start things off, Morrison orders a {{m|Take Down}} [[Move|attack]], and Beldum immediately fires itself right at the opposing Electric Pokémon. Jump and Electabuzz however do not seem worried, and Jump taunts Morrison and orders Electabuzz to use {{m|Protect}}. Electabuzz does so, shielding itself with its arms. This defensive maneuver pays off, as the force of its attack being blocked sends Beldum flying back and smashing into the battlefield. Morrison tells Beldum to get up, as Ash and {{ashfr}} look on worried. However, Ash is confident that Beldum will pull through. Morrison once again orders a Take Down attack, and once again, Jump simply laughs the attack off and orders for Electabuzz to use Protect again. This has the same result as last time, and Beldum is once again sent flying back.<br /> <br /> Changing his tactics, Jump commands a {{m|Thunder Punch}} attack. Electabuzz jumps up above Beldum and charges up its throbbing arm with powerful electrical energy, and smashes it right into Beldum, who is still on the floor and recovering from the last attack. Morrison calls out to Beldum, who is struggling to get up after the point-blank attack it just received. As Beldum is unable to use an attack other than Take Down, Morrison orders it once again. Jump again does not seem worried, and orders Electabuzz to use Protect again. However, Beldum continues to charge into Electabuzz with all its might, forcing Jump to order a Quick Attack. Electabuzz does so, managing to send Beldum right into the stadium wall. Morrison then sees his chance to attack again, and orders a Take Down, which this time, pushes Electabuzz back. Jump calls for a Thunderbolt attack, and the point-blank attack smashes Beldum right into the stadium ground again. Morrison urges the {{type|Steel}} Pokémon to continue battling, though Beldum struggles to get up. Jump, convinced of victory, orders another {{m|Thunder Punch}} attack. Electabuzz charges up its arm once again, but just before it can land a blow, Beldum starts glowing pure white as it miraculously evolves into {{TP|Morrison|Metang}}. Realizing he's still in the middle of a battle, Morrison decides to finish things off. Jump, snapping out of his initial surprise, orders another Thunder Punch. Electabuzz charges and leaps towards Metang to deliver the final blow, but Morrison orders a {{m|Confusion}} just in time, which instantly freezes the {{t|Electric}} Pokémon in mid-air. Morrison tells Metang to use Take Down to deliver the final blow. Metang locks its arms into place, and rockets towards its immobilized foe, knocking Electabuzz down for the count. The referee announces that Electabuzz is [[fainting|unable to battle]], and that Morrison and his Metang are the winners. Ash congratulates Morrison as the boy excitedly tells Ash that he did it.<br /> <br /> However, outside the stadium, not everything is as innocent and happy as Morrison. Lurking in the shadows, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] smirk as they prepare for their latest money-making venture as snack vendors, Meowth however is less impressed.<br /> <br /> Ash, his friends and Morrison make their way to another stadium, this time to support Tyson and his trademark Meowth in their preliminary match against [[Vivica]] and her {{p|Persian}}. [[Max]] remarks that this match up will be interesting as Tyson's Meowth becomes increasingly aggravated at the sight of its evolved form. Finally, the referee starts the match and Tyson's Meowth instantly dashes towards Persian without even waiting for an attack order. Ash and friends are shocked by this sudden action, but Tyson remains calm and orders a {{m|Slash}} attack. Meowth extends its claws and leaps towards Persian, but its vicious Slash is dodged by its evolved counterpart incredible leap. Seeing an opening, Vivica quickly tells Persian to use its {{m|Fury Swipes}} as it lands. Persian quickly turns around and jumps towards Tyson's Meowth, using its claws to land several vicious blows on its opponent. Tyson orders a {{m|Double Team}}, so Meowth back flips and creates several identical clones of itself which surround Persian. Unfazed by Meowth's sneaky attack, Vivica orders a {{m|Water Pulse}} attack, creating huge pulses of water to surge through the battlefield which destroys the Meowth copies and hits the real Meowth, sending it flying back. Meowth manages to land on its feet. Vivica calls for {{m|Shadow Ball}}, which smashes Meowth right into the stadium wall. Not one to give up however, Meowth thrusts himself forward as Tyson orders an Iron Tail, sending Persian spiraling backwards. Tyson instantly orders a follow up Thunderbolt attack, though Vivica has her Persian {{m|Dig}} underground to avoid the attack. Meowth charges up its energy and aims its attack at the dig hole. The attack rips right through the ground until it hits its target, and Persian is thrust straight out of its underground hiding place and out into the open once again, screaming as it's still being shocked by the Thunderbolt mid-air. The attack eventually ends, and Persian is sent smashing into the ground and out for the count. Vivica calls out to her Pokémon, but the referee announces that it is unable to battle, declaring that Tyson and Meowth are the winners. However, Meowth does not want to battle to end there, and it extends its claws once again and runs towards the fallen Persian. Tyson attempts to hold Meowth back, but it frees itself from its Trainer's grip and leaps towards Persian as the crowd are left startled by the ferocity. But before it can attack, Tyson [[recall]]s Meowth back to its {{i|Poké Ball}}, gazing at it in concern.<br /> <br /> Afterwards, Tyson details when he first encountered Meowth to Morrison and the group. Eavesdropping into the conversation is Team Rocket's Meowth. Tyson explains that one day, while he was traveling through a snow-covered forest, he happened across a pack of wild Meowth, headed by a Persian. One of the Meowth was battling against the Persian, but was losing badly as the rest of the pack watched on. The Persian used Fury Swipes, knocking the Meowth away, and then Shadow Ball to knock the young feline back. The Persian and the rest of the group then walked off, leaving the young Meowth abandoned in the middle of the snow. Tyson then explains how he took the young Meowth and nursed it back to health, and bandaged up its damaged legs. When Meowth was finally conscious again, Tyson gave it a pair of boots to take the strain off walking and started training it to walk on its damaged feet. As Tyson finishes off his story, the group come to understand Meowth’s aggressive attitude when it battled Vivica’s Persian. Due to his own experiences with Persian, Team Rocket's Meowth cannot help but cry at Tyson's story.<br /> <br /> Later, Ash's preliminary battle, against a young, martial arts user called {{OBP|Gilbert|AG126}} and his {{p|Hitmonlee}}. Tyson, Brock, Max, May and Morrison cheer Ash on from the audience, and the referee starts the battle off. Both Pikachu and Hitmonlee charge towards each other, with Gilbert commanding a {{m|Rolling Kick}}, and Ash ordering Iron Tail. Hitmonlee leaps towards Pikachu and kicks hard with his extendable legs. Though Pikachu quickly dodges and quickly unleashes his Iron Tail on Ash's command, sending Hitmonlee crashing down to earth. Gilbert tells Hitmonlee to use {{m|High Jump Kick}}, and Hitmonlee attempts to hit Pikachu while combining his attack with forward flips. Pikachu, however, uses his amazing speed to dodge all three kicks, leading Hitmonlee further and further towards the stadium wall. Seeing his chance, Hitmonlee thrusts forward to attack, but Pikachu makes a last minute dash to safety, causing Hitmonlee to [[Crash damage|hurt his knee]] against the hard surface of the stadium wall. Both Pokémon land and face-off, but Hitmonlee starts to feel the pain of his strained leg. As Hitmonlee's legs are his main source of attacking, they are also his weak spot, and so Gilbert senses that he'll have to end the battle fast, even if it means taking a risk. Ash orders Pikachu to attack, and Gilbert tells Hitmonlee to use {{m|Mega Kick}}. The Fighting Pokémon responds, and smashes his foot hard into Pikachu, but he feels pain while doing so. Thinking fast, Ash orders an Iron Tail just before both Pokémon hit the ground. The impact of the attacks cause a dust cloud to appear, and when it clears, Pikachu has struck Hitmonlee's head with his Iron Tail after using the attack to cushion the blow of the vicious kick attack. Hitmonlee falls to the ground, and Pikachu is declared the winner.

(Japanese: '''ポッチャマ対スボミー！ヒカリ初バトル！！''' ''{{tt|Pochama|Piplup}} VS {{tt|Subomie|Budew}}! {{tt|Hikari|Dawn}}'s First Battle!!'') is the fourth episode of ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'', and the 470th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on October 5, 2006 and in the United States on June 7, 2007.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/10_04-dawn-of-a-new-era/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Dawn is still trying to catch her first wild Pokémon, but Ash's coaching isn't helping at all and both Trainers are getting annoyed. The outlook suddenly gets much brighter when Nando, a traveling Pokémon bard, has his Budew use Sunny Day to lighten the mood. To show Ash her skills, Dawn requests a Contest battle with Nando, but Budew's Grass-type moves are too tough for Piplup. Budew wins and our heroes head to a Pokémon Center, where they learn that Nando can't decide whether to dedicate himself to Pokémon Contests or Gym battles.<br /> <br /> To help him decide, Ash and Dawn set off to find Nando again, only to end up deep in the forest. It's too late to get back to the Pokémon Center, but three very familiar and suspicious-looking individuals offer them a free inn room for the night. Of course, it's all another Team Rocket scheme to snatch Pikachu! Nando and his Budew come to the rescue, and now it's Ash's turn to ask Nando for a friendly battle.<br /> <br /> Ash decides to use Pikachu to battle Budew. Nando's style may be elegant, but even though Budew evolves into Roselia during the match, it's still not enough to defeat Pikachu. Still, Nando had so much fun battling Dawn and Ash that he's decided to do both Gym battles and Pokémon Contests! Our heroes say goodbye to Nando with promises to meet again, then continue their journey towards Dawn's first Contest and Ash's first Sinnoh Gym battle.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{an|Dawn}} makes her second attempt to {{pkmn2|caught|capture}} a {{p|Buneary}}. She pulls out a {{i|Poké Ball}}, but {{Ash}} reminds her to make it larger. She expands the Ball and throws it, but it slips and hits Ash in the face. Ash gets angry and scolds Dawn, and an argument ensues. Buneary slips away, and {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} notices, alerting everyone else. Ash and Dawn continue to argue, even as they continue down the path. {{an|Brock}} tries to stop them, though a ray of intense sunlight silences all three of them. Brock mentions that it is {{m|Sunny Day}}. A {{TP|Nando|Budew}} soon approaches the group, so Ash checks his [[Pokédex]]. A {{wp|minstrel}} steps out from behind a tree, playing a {{p|Mew}}-shaped {{wp|harp}} and mentioning that the move helped calm the argument. The group exchanges introductions, the man identifying himself as [[Nando]] and his Budew. Hoping to prove her strength, Dawn asks Nando for a {{pkmn|battle}}. Nando asks if she is going for the [[Sinnoh League]], though Dawn declares that she is going for the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]]. At that, Nando decides to make it a [[Contest Battle]] and escorts everyone over to a nearby clearing. {{TRT}} follows and notices Dawn is now with Ash and Brock. With the new [[twerp]] in her sights, [[Jessie]] irritated that she is going for the [[Grand Festival]].<br /> <br /> Dawn chooses Piplup to go against Budew. Nando offers her the first move, so Dawn starts things off with {{m|Peck}}. However Budew dodges easily, jumping up in the air and firing {{m|Bullet Seed}}. Piplup dodges and hits its opponent with a {{m|Bubble Beam}}, which proves [[Type#Type effectiveness|ineffective]] against Budew. Ash points out the [[type]] disadvantage while Brock notices that Budew used the smoke as an [[Appeal]]. Nando orders Budew to use {{m|Solar Beam}} and Dawn decides to rush Piplup in with Peck. However, Sunny Day was still in effect, something she overlooked, and Solar Beam fires immediately, scoring a hit and [[fainting|incapacitating]] Piplup. Nando commends Dawn on her first battle before he departs. Team Rocket watches and Jessie snubs Dawn for her loss as they plan to steal {{AP|Pikachu}}.<br /> <br /> As sunset passes, Dawn sulks at her loss and her inability to catch Pokémon. Brock looks at his guidebook and mentions a nearby [[Pokémon Center]], where they can stay the night. Brock brings out {{TP|Brock|Bonsly}} as Dawn checks her Pokédex. Ash asks if Brock brought {{cat|Brock's Pokémon|his other Pokémon}}, but he affirms that Bonsly is his only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while his other Pokémon are [[Pewter Gym|back at home]]. Dawn learns that Brock was the {{ci|Pewter}} [[Gym Leader]].<br /> <br /> At the Center, [[Nurse Joy]] greets the group, and Dawn thinks this Nurse Joy is the same one from [[Sandgem Town]]. Brock promptly shows her a group photo of all the Joys, taking Dawn aback by their startling similarities. As Brock confesses his love to Joy, Dawn notices the familiar behavior. Ash admits even he doesn’t understand it. Later, Dawn calls [[Johanna|her mother]], who thanks the boys for watching out for her daughter. Dawn admits that there is nothing to worry about, though Johanna replies that such a statement only makes her more concerned. Johanna wishes the traveling trio all the best with their ventures before signing off. Afterwards, Nurse Joy approaches and gets Ash to register for the Sinnoh League, using his Pokédex for the registration process. Dawn asks if she can register for {{pkmn|Contest}}s as well, but Joy mentions that she does that at the [[Contest Hall]], as well as getting a [[Contest Pass]]. Three {{pkmn|Trainer}}s arrive with the three [[Sinnoh]] {{pkmn2|starter}}s, one with a {{p|Prinplup}}. Dawn is particularly excited and checks her Pokédex for information on Prinplup. <br /> <br /> Nando also enters the Center, where he retrieves his Budew from treatment. Dawn wonders if he is staying at the Center as well, though Nando admits he needs time to ponder and leaves for the great outdoors. Nurse Joy reveals to Ash and his friends that Nando is trying to decide whether to focus on winning [[Badge]]s or [[Ribbon]]s. Ash and Dawn argue about what Nando should choose, running off after Nando to ask, forcing Brock to follow. However, their night time search fails, even with the assistance of [[Ash's Starly]]. Ash mentions that the group will have to camp out for the night as Brock scolds them for being impulsive. <br /> <br /> A [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] Team Rocket shows up and directs the group to their inn. The group are lured in by the offer of a free overnight stay, and {{MTR}} recommends Pikachu stay in their custom sleeping capsule. The wind suddenly whips up, causing the fake inn façade to collapse and removing Team Rocket's disguises. Now revealed, the Rocket trio recites their {{motto}} and [[James]] brings out {{TP|James|Carnivine}}. Noting the new Pokémon, Ash checks his Pokédex. Dawn orders Piplup to attack with Bubble Beam, but Carnivine literally eats it and charges forward with {{m|Bite}}. However, Budew intercepts, pushing Carnivine back and fires Bullet Seed, sending Team Rocket flying. Nando shows up and is glad to see everyone is fine. He is surprised to encounter them yet again, though he takes them back to his campsite. Ash and Dawn try to persuade him to focus specifically on either Contests or Gym battles, which quickly turns into an argument. Nando stops them, calls for them to hear the forest sounds and [[wild Pokémon]] roaming. The echoing sounds enchant Dawn, admitting she has never stopped to listen to the forest before. Dawn apologizes to Ash for her anger and the two make up. Ash mentions the time when he first spotted {{an|Ho-Oh}} at [[EP001|the beginning of his journey]]. Dawn reveals her own [[DP001|sighting]] of a {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Mesprit|mysterious figure}} back at [[Lake Verity]]. Nando plucks at his harp, relieved to see the group understand and shares his same appreciation for mysteries of the world.<br /> <br /> Ash challenges Nando to battle, which happens the next day, pitting Pikachu against Budew. Pikachu uses {{m|Quick Attack}} on Budew, but it fires Bullet Seed. Pikachu dodges and hits with Quick Attack. Budew replies with {{m|Mega Drain}} to replenish its energy while absorbing Pikachu’s. Pikachu gets up and lands a direct {{m|Thunderbolt}} on its opponent. Budew gets up and glows, [[Evolution|evolving]] into {{TP|Nando|Roselia}}. Ash is shocked by Budew's evolution. Roselia uses Sunny Day to amplify the rays and proceeds to complete the combo with Solar Beam. Pikachu darts forward as the beam launches. Pikachu jumps up to dodge and comes down with {{m|Iron Tail}}, knocking out Roselia. Nando picks up Roselia and [[recall]]s it. He thanks Ash and Dawn, announcing his decision to do both Contests and Gym battles based on his battles with the pair. Nando heads on his way while Ash's group continues on towards [[Jubilife City]].<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{an|Dawn}} fails to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Buneary}} for the second time.<br /> * {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} meet [[Nando]].<br /> * Dawn has her first {{pkmn|battle|Trainer battle}} against Nando and loses.<br /> * Ash registers for the [[Sinnoh League]].<br /> * {{an|Brock}} reveals that he has only brought {{TP|Brock|Bonsly}} with him to [[Sinnoh]], having left {{cat|Brock's Pokémon|his other Pokémon}} at the [[Pewter Gym]].<br /> * Ash, Dawn, and Brock learn that [[James]] owns a {{TP|James|Carnivine}}.<br /> * James's Carnivine is revealed to know {{m|Bite}}.<br /> * Ash has a battle with Nando and wins.<br /> * Nando's {{p|Budew}} [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{TP|Nando|Roselia}}.<br /> * Nando declares his intention to compete for both [[Badge]]s and [[Ribbon]]s, thus making him a [[rival]] of both Ash and Dawn.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * [[Nando]]<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Kricketot}}<br /> * {{p|Prinplup}}<br /> * {{TP|Nando|Nando's Budew/Roselia|Roselia}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Dawn}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Johanna]]<br /> * [[Nando]]<br /> * {{pkmn|Trainer}}s<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Mime Jr.}} ({{OP|James|Mime Jr.}})<br /> * {{p|Piplup}} ({{OP|Dawn|Piplup}})<br /> * {{p|Starly}} ({{OP|Ash|Starly}})<br /> * {{p|Bonsly}} ({{OP|Brock|Bonsly}})<br /> * {{p|Carnivine}} ({{OP|James|Carnivine}})<br /> * {{p|Glameow}} ({{OP|Johanna|Glameow}})<br /> * {{p|Budew}} ({{OP|Nando|Budew}}; evolves)<br /> * {{p|Roselia}} ({{OP|Nando|Roselia}}; newly evolved)<br /> * {{p|Turtwig}} ({{pkmn|Trainer}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Chimchar}} ({{pkmn|Trainer}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Prinplup}} ({{pkmn|Trainer}}'s; debut)<br /> * {{p|Kricketot}} (debut; multiple)<br /> * {{p|Ho-Oh}} ({{an|Ho-Oh|anime}}; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Mesprit}} ({{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Mesprit|anime}}; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Hoothoot}} (×2)<br /> * {{p|Noctowl}} (×2)<br /> * {{p|Wooper}} (×4)<br /> * {{p|Quagsire}} (×2)<br /> * {{p|Misdreavus}}<br /> * {{p|Gastly}} (×2) <br /> * {{p|Duskull}}<br /> * {{p|Chimecho}} (×2)<br /> * {{p|Burmy}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Buneary}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Mew}} (on Nando's harp)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * [[Professor Oak's Big Pokémon Encyclopedia]]: [[Pokémon Center]]s<br /> ** Pokémon senryū: ジョーイさん　あいたくなったら　ポケモンセンター ''Jōi-san aitaku nattara, Pokémon sentā.'' &quot;When I want to meet [[Nurse Joy]], Pokémon Center.&quot;<br /> * [[Together]] replaced [[Spurt!]] as the [[List of Japanese opening themes|Japanese opening theme]]{{tt|*|TV airing only, as the previous three episodes did not include an opening theme in their original TV run. &amp;quot;Together&amp;quot; was used in their DVD release, however.}}.<br /> * At the time the Japanese title was revealed, {{p|Budew}} was not yet known to the public.<br /> * Music from ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' is used as background music.<br /> * [[4Kids Entertainment|4Kids]] background music is used in this episode.<br /> * The eyecatches feature {{Ash}}, now wearing his ''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]'' [[List of clothing in the anime|outfit]], alongside {{an|Dawn}}, and {{an|Brock}}.

(Japanese: '''たいけつ！ポケモンセンター！''' ''Showdown! Pokémon Center!'') is the second episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 8, 1997 and in the United States on September 9, 1998.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/01_02-pokemon-emergency/--&gt;<br /> &lt;!--Please do not alter the blurb to fix any errors, there are meant to be presented as they are on the official site.--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash rushes into Viridian City with his gravely wounded Pikachu. The city's on high alert for Pokémon thieves-thieves like Jessie, James, and Meowth of Team Rocket, a group of bad guys dedicated to stealing valuable Pokémon.<br /> <br /> While Ash waits at the Pokémon Center for news on Pikachu's condition, Misty arrives, angry about the bike Ash wrecked-but she softens when she sees Pikachu wheeled out on a stretcher.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket crashes through the roof of the Pokémon Center. While Nurse Joy transports Poké Balls to Pewter City for safety, Ash tries to fight off Team Rocket's Pokémon, Koffing and Ekans. Ash is having no luck battling, so his Pikachu, still recovering, teams up with a bunch of other Pikachu at the Pokémon Center to blast Team Rocket out of the building!<br /> <br /> Having discovered that Ash's Pikachu is not your ordinary Pikachu, Jessie, James, and Meowth make it their mission to capture it.<br /> <br /> With the bad guys expelled, Misty joins Ash and Pikachu on their journey to Pewter City. While strolling through Viridian Forest, a Caterpie makes an appearance. Ash sees an opportunity for his first Pokémon capture. Will he be successful?&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> [[Officer Jenny]] is in the midst of alerting [[Viridian City]]'s citizens of [[Pokémon poacher]]s seen in the area via announcement speaker when she spots {{Ash}} with {{AP|Pikachu}} in his arms. She gives him a lift to the [[Pokémon Center]] after his [[Pokédex]] confirms his identity. The pair slide into the Pokémon Center's foyer, much to [[Nurse Joy]]'s dismay. She quickly orders a stretcher and two {{p|Chansey}} take Pikachu into the emergency room. While [[Nurse Joy]] is attending to Pikachu's injuries, Ash calls [[Delia Ketchum|his mother]] and {{an|Professor Oak}}, the latter of whom is surprised to discover that Ash is already in Viridian City. When Ash mentions the {{an|Ho-Oh|strange golden Pokémon}} he had recently seen, Professor Oak is skeptical that Ash had actually seen the Pokémon, which many Trainers have searched for ages without success. Afterwards, {{an|Misty|the girl whose bicycle was &quot;borrowed&quot; and destroyed by Ash}} angrily storms into the Pokémon Center, though after Ash explains himself, her concern shifts to Pikachu's well-being.<br /> <br /> At that moment, an alarm in the Pokémon Center sounds and a villainous group named {{TRT}} invade the building. Their {{i|Poké Ball}}s break a skylight, and {{TP|James|Koffing}} fills the air with {{m|Smokescreen|smoke}}. Team Rocket recite their {{motto}} and destroy the Center's electrical system in a scheme to steal the Pokémon inside. Nurse Joy, Misty, and Ash retreat to a locked storage room with Pikachu, who is still in its stretcher. The power initially cuts out, though the backup system, Pika-Power, activates. Nurse Joy begins transporting as many Pokémon as she can to [[Pewter City]]'s Pokémon Center. Suddenly, Koffing breaks through the doors. At Misty's insistence, Ash tries and fails to fend off {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}} and Koffing with a {{p|Pidgey}}, an empty Poké Ball, and {{p|Rattata}}. Misty calls on her {{TP|Misty|Goldeen}} to help, though without water, it flails helplessly before being [[recall]]ed.<br /> <br /> In a hurry with Pikachu's stretcher, Ash hits Misty's bicycle, causing Pikachu to wake up. The other {{p|Pikachu}} at the Pokémon Center surround Ash's Pikachu, healing him as well as delivering a powerful electric shock to Team Rocket. Ash hops onto Misty's singed bike, and Pikachu absorbs the pedal-powered bicycle light's charge to hit Team Rocket with a powerful {{m|Thunder Shock}}. The attack mixes with Koffing's gas, resulting in a colossal explosion that destroys much of the Pokémon Center.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket escapes and declares their mission to capture Ash's not-so-ordinary Pikachu for {{an|Giovanni|their boss}}. Flying debris then punctures their {{p|Meowth}}-shaped balloon, and the trio blasts off. The next day, Ash, Pikachu, and Misty venture into [[Viridian Forest]], with Misty having decided to follow Ash until he replaces her destroyed bicycle. Then, Ash spots a {{p|Caterpie}}, much to Misty's disgust, and prepares to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> &lt;!-- This is not for summarizing everything that happens in this episode. Only events pertaining to the series as a whole, such as catching and releasing Pokémon and obtaining Badges, go here. --&gt;<br /> * {{Ash}} visits a [[Pokémon Center]] and meets a [[Nurse Joy]] and an [[Officer Jenny]] for the first time.<br /> * {{an|Misty}} introduces herself to Ash and declares that she will follow him until he repays the damages to her [[Bicycle|bike]].<br /> * Ash and Misty meet [[Jessie]] and [[James]], two members of the villainous [[Team Rocket]], along with their partner, a {{pkmn2|talking}} {{MTR}}.<br /> * Misty is revealed to own a {{TP|Misty|Goldeen}}.<br /> * The [[Team Rocket trio]] decides to follow Ash and steal his {{AP|Pikachu}}.<br /> * Ash prepares to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} a {{AP|Caterpie}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * [[Officer Jenny]]<br /> * [[Team Rocket]]<br /> ** [[Jessie]]<br /> ** [[James]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Chansey}} ({{OP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}})<br /> * {{p|Koffing}} ({{OP|James|Koffing}})<br /> * {{p|Ekans}} ({{OP|Jessie|Ekans}})<br /> * {{p|Goldeen}} ({{OP|Misty|Goldeen}})<br /> * {{p|Caterpie}} (later {{OP|Ash|Caterpie}})<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:Dare da EP002.png|thumb|200px|{{tt|Dare da?|Who's That Pokémon?}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Delia Ketchum]]<br /> * {{an|Professor Oak}}<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Officer Jenny]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP002.png|thumb|200px|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Koffing}}<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}}; debut)<br /> * {{p|Goldeen}} ({{OP|Misty|Goldeen}}; debut)<br /> * {{p|Ekans}} ({{OP|Jessie|Ekans}}; debut)<br /> * {{p|Koffing}} ({{OP|James|Koffing}}; debut)<br /> * {{p|Chansey}} ({{OP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}}; debut)<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ([[Nurse Joy|Pokémon Center]]'s; multiple)<br /> * {{p|Pidgey}} (Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Rattata}} (Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Ho-Oh}} ({{an|Ho-Oh|anime}}; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Caterpie}} (later {{OP|Ash|Caterpie}}; debut)<br /> * {{p|Spearow}} (flashback)<br /> * {{p|Jigglypuff}} (computer animation)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> [[File:Pidgey alternate coloration.png|thumb|200px|A differently-colored Pidgey]]<br /> [[File:Legendary Pokemon engravings EP002.png|200px|thumb|The engraving of legendary Pokémon]]<br /> * This is currently the only episode in which any of {{Ash}}'s male relatives are mentioned. {{Delia}} mentions that it took his father four days to reach [[Viridian City]] from [[Pallet Town]] and that Ash is the &quot;apple&quot; of his eye. She also mentions Ash's grandfather in the Japanese version.<br /> * On the wall at the Pokémon Center, the engravings are of {{p|Arcanine}}, {{p|Articuno}}, {{p|Zapdos}}, and {{p|Moltres}}. Ash misidentifies the {{p|Ho-Oh}} he saw in the previous episode as Articuno.<br /> * The {{p|Pidgey}} in the clock is green, instead of its normal color. Though some may consider this to be [[Shiny Pokémon|alternate coloration]], this is not how the &quot;Shiny&quot; Pidgey appears in the {{pkmn|games}}. This could just be a coloring error, considering this, after all, was only the second episode of the series just like how there was a green [[Poké Ball]] in the very first episode.<br /> ** This is the second appearance of a clock with a Pidgey Cuckoo. The first was inside a Voltorb clock Ash had in the [[EP001|previous]] episode. Both are also destroyed in some way (Ash's Voltorb clock is smashed when thrown in Ash's sleep, the Pokémon Center's clock is destroyed when the Center blows up). Another Pidgey cuckoo clock would also appear [[EP020|18 episodes later]].<br /> * The events of this episode are referenced in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]'' by Team Rocket, who tell {{an|Dawn}} that they have been chasing {{AP|Pikachu}} for as long as she'd been alive.<br /> * The book ''{{book|I Choose You!}}'' is based on this episode.<br /> * This episode was modified after the [[EP038]] seizure incident. Originally, the scene where Pikachu uses Thunder Shock on Team Rocket was a sequence of rapidly flashing images of each Team Rocket member. This was changed to a four-square grid to reduce the flashing effect. This change affected all home releases and re-broadcasts in Japan, and all international versions of the episode.<br /> * Several scenes from the episode, including Misty's attempt at distracting Team Rocket was shown on the VHS ''[[A Sneak Peek at Pokémon]]''.<br /> * The Officer Jenny of this episode made a reappearance in ''[[DP036|A Secret Sphere of Influence!]]'', exactly 500 episodes later.<br /> * The Turkish dub of the episode doesn't translate the episode title, nor recite it in Turkish to the audience.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * When the narrator is recapping the previous episode, he incorrectly says &quot;Spearows.&quot; The plural of a Pokémon is the same as the singular.<br /> * On the wanted poster, James is shown holding a lilac rose, although normally he holds a red rose.<br /> ** However, this could just be due to the show being in its very early stages and some things not yet set in stone.<br /> * When Nurse Joy is putting Pikachu on the bed in the Pokémon Center, Pikachu's tail is shown purely yellow, without the brown start.<br /> * {{p|Arcanine}} is not a legendary Pokémon; however, it was shown on the wall with the [[legendary birds]]. This is likely due to Arcanine's {{pkmn|category}}, which classifies it as a &quot;Legendary Pokémon&quot; (like Pikachu is a &quot;Mouse Pokémon&quot;).<br /> * When [[Professor Oak]] was about to call the [[Viridian City]] Pokémon Center, Ash is on the far side of the curved desk shown there. Then he goes around to it in order to answer it and has the desk directly to his left but when [[Professor Oak]] talks to Ash, the desk layout has changed entirely. And later when Officer Jenny announces that there is a balloon with [[Team Rocket trio|thieves]] which they are trying to steal Pokémon, the desks have changed again.<br /> * When Ash sends out the Pidgey from its Poké Ball, its eyes are yellow instead of the normal black and white.<br /> * The first two times [[James]] is shown in the doorway of the [[Poké Ball]] room, his left hand is colored like his skin instead of black.<br /> * Misty says that a water Pokémon can't battle on land and although that is true for Goldeen, she owns two - Staryu and Starmie - that are water types and are perfectly capable of battling on land.<br /> &lt;gallery&gt;<br /> EP002 error 1.png|James's miscolored glove<br /> Pidgey EP002.png|Pidgey's yellow eyes<br /> &lt;/gallery&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Changes===<br /> ====Dub edits====<br /> * [[PokéRap]]: Day 2<br /> * While the recap uses the same dialog in the Japanese version, for some reason the dub changes Ash's introductory line:<br /> ** Original: &quot;And I hereby declare to the Pokémon of the world...I will be a Pokémon master...Pokémon Master! That is what I'll...&quot;<br /> ** Flashback: &quot;That's right. I declare to the Pokémon of the world...I will be the greatest Pokémon Trainer...the greatest Pokémon master...of all time.&quot;<br /> * In the Japanese version, Delia says that Ash's grandfather would be proud of him as well as his father.<br /> ** In addition, Delia's attempting to discern whether Ash was wearing clean underwear was originally a request that he brush teeth every morning.<br /> * Ash's comment that had Oak realizing he had the wrong camera activated was changed between the two versions: In the original, Ash asked if there was Ramen cooking in the background. In the dub, he commented that he didn't recognize the back of Oak's head.<br /> * Professor Oak abruptly ending his telephone conversation with Ash is different in both versions: in the English version, Oak says that his pizza just arrived, while in the Japanese version, Oak realizes that his ramen is overcooking.<br /> ** On that same note, the English version included a doorbell sound-effect that wasn't present in the original version.<br /> * Misty introduces herself to Ash, Team Rocket, and the audience during the Pokémon Center battle in the Japanese version, while Nurse Joy reveals Misty's name to the audience at the end of the English version. The name is also mentioned at [[narrator]]'s conclusion.<br /> * In the Japanese version, Ash's mom says that a black hen lays white eggs and a Pidgey lays Spearow eggs. In the games, it would later become possible for a Pidgey to produce a Spearow {{pkmn|Egg}} and vice versa, as both species are in the {{egg|Flying}} [[Egg Group]].<br /> * When {{wp|Cartoon Network}} would rerun the first dub season, most episodes would cut the &quot;TO BE CONTINUED&quot; screen. This was one of the few episodes in which Cartoon Network would leave the &quot;TO BE CONTINUED&quot; screen intact, most likely due to the narrator talking over it.<br /> <br /> ====Differences between the episode and the [[Pocket Monsters Film Comic|comic adaptation]]====<br /> *The exchange between Delia and Ash cut out their respective references to Ash &quot;soaring like a Spearow&quot; and &quot;a fallen Pidgey&quot;, thus making it seem as though Delia's outburst was in reference to Ash's retort of being the apple in his eye being that of a &quot;rotten apple.&quot;<br /> *The scene where Ash receives a call from Professor Oak and sees that Oak has the back camera on by mistake was cut.<br /> *Professor Oak's bet with Gary was changed: In the comic, he mentioned that he would have &quot;eaten his own hat&quot; if he discovered Ash didn't catch a single Pokémon, with Ash asking if it was a cowboy hat when implying Gary won the bet, with Oak privately and glumly admitting that it was indeed a ten-gallon cowboy hat. In the actual episode, he mentioned he would have given Gary a million dollars for the same bet. Ash then made a comment that implied that Gary won the bet, with Oak then glumly deciding he really shouldn't have bothered making the bet at all.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Epilang|color=AFA|bordercolor=FAA<br /> |ar={{tt|البوكيمون في خطر|The Pokémon is in danger}}<br /> |bg={{tt|Покемон – спешна помощ!|Pokemon - emergency aid}}<br /> |hi=पोकेमोन एमर्जेन्सी! {{tt|''Pokémon Emergency!''|Pokémon Emergency!

<p>BiggestPokemonFan: </p> <hr /> <div>[[File:Sensational Sisters.png|thumb|230px|{{an|Daisy}}, [[Violet]], and {{ka|Lily}}—The Sensational Sisters (left to right)]]<br /> <br /> The '''Sensational Sisters''' (Japanese: '''ハナダ{{tt|水|みず}}{{tt|姉妹|しまい}}''' ''[[Cerulean City|Hanada]] Water Sisters'') are a group consisting of {{an|Misty}}'s three older sisters, {{an|Daisy}}, [[Violet]], and {{ka|Lily}}. At some point before the series, the sisters were put in charge of the [[Cerulean Gym]]. However, after {{Gary}} and the other two {{pkmn|Trainer}}s from [[Pallet Town]] defeated them one after the other, they decided to stop accepting challenges and instead perform water ballet shows for the residents of [[Cerulean City]]. Their younger sister {{an|Misty}} would eventually take over their position as [[Gym Leader]].<br /> <br /> ==In the anime==<br /> [[File:Sensational Sisters Sun and Moon.png|thumb|250px|left|Sensational Sisters in the {{series|Sun &amp; Moon}}]]<br /> When {{an|Misty}} left prior to ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]'' to become a {{t|Water}} [[Pokémon Master]], [[Daisy]] and her other two sisters were put in charge of the [[Cerulean Gym]]. <br /> <br /> The Sensational Sisters debuted in ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''. When {{Ash}} came to the [[Cerulean Gym|Gym]] to earn his {{Badge|Cascade}}, they turned down his challenge. They explained that, after {{Gary}} and the other two {{pkmn|Trainer}}s from [[Pallet Town]] defeated them consecutively, they decided to stop battling and to instead perform water shows for the residents of [[Cerulean City]]. {{an|Daisy}} then offered to give the Cascade Badge to Ash for free. Misty, however, appeared and challenged Ash to a battle with the Badge as a prize. After Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} saved the Gym from {{TRT}}, the sisters decided to award him a Cascade Badge despite the fact that he hadn't defeated Misty. They wished Misty well on her personal quest, hoping that her efforts would amount to something.<br /> <br /> Misty stopped by the Cerulean Gym to drop off her {{TP|Misty|Starmie}} and {{TP|Misty|Horsea}} to play there in ''[[EP061|The Misty Mermaid]]''. Upon arriving, she realized that her sisters continued to pursue their performing ambitions and neglected the Gym, and was also enlisted in their latest play, the Underwater Ballet. Team Rocket gate-crashed the performance, and tied {{ka|Lily}} and [[Violet]] up. While Daisy freed the pair, the sisters watched Ash and {{ashfr}} battle Team Rocket underwater. Violet sent out [[Misty's Psyduck]] in a bid to defeat Team Rocket, though its fear of water made it useless and embarrassing. The show proved to be a massive hit with the crowd, who were unaware that Team Rocket's appearance was not part of the show, and the sisters' show was booked for the next six months.<br /> <br /> In ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]'', the sisters called Misty to tell her that they had won a trip around the world after Daisy placed third in a pageant competition. They made Misty return to Cerulean City and abandon her travels with Ash and {{an|Brock}}, so she could take over the role of Gym Leader during their absence.<br /> <br /> Misty returned at the Cerulean Gym to officially take over in ''[[SS002|Cerulean Blues]]'', only to find that her sisters had already left the Gym with several fans, who struggled with {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}}'s rage, while they were on holiday. Misty contacted her sisters, who were enjoying a beachside vacation, in ''[[SS005|The Blue Badge of Courage]]''. Daisy informed her that she would need to go to [[Rifure Village]] to receive a supply of Cascade Badges before quickly signing off. They returned to the Gym two weeks before ''[[SS011|A Date with Delcatty]]''. However, Misty remained the official Gym Leader, with Daisy and the other sisters filling in when Misty was away.<br /> <br /> In ''[[SS016|Luvdisc is a Many Splendored Thing!]]'', Daisy appeared without her other two sisters, and proudly showed off [[Caserin and Luverin]] to {{Tracey}}. After defeating [[Butch]] and [[Cassidy]], the Sensational Sisters performed in another water ballet show. However, their views of battling did not improve during this time, and in ''[[AG134|A Real Cleffa-Hanger]]'', Daisy asked Misty if they could simply give Badges to the Trainers instead of properly battling them.<br /> <br /> After a long absence, the sisters reappeared in a fantasy during the [[Poké Problem]] segment of [[SM042]], where they ditched the Gym to go on another trip, leaving Misty in charge of everything.<br /> <br /> They reappeared during a fantasy in ''[[SM102|Alola, Alola!]]'', when Misty revealed that she had left the Gym under their charge during her trip to [[Alola]].<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> The following Pokémon are used by the Sensational Sisters.<br /> <br /> ====Daisy====<br /> :''See {{DL|Daisy (anime)|Pokémon|Daisy → Pokémon}}''<br /> <br /> ====Lily====<br /> :''See {{DL|Lily (Kanto)|Pokémon|Lily → Pokémon}}''<br /> <br /> ====Unknown====<br /> It is unknown which sister owns each of the following Pokémon.<br /> {{TrainerPoké<br /> |main=Dewgong (Cerulean Gym)<br /> |stage1=Seel<br /> |trainer=Sensational Sisters<br /> |pkmn=Dewgong<br /> |type1=Water<br /> |type2=Ice<br /> |img=Cerulean Gym Dewgong.png<br /> |epnum=EP007<br /> |epname=The Water Flowers of Cerulean City<br /> |vajp=Yūji Ueda<br /> |vaen=Michael Haigney<br /> |desc={{p|Dewgong}} first appeared as a {{p|Seel}}, holding out the {{badge|Cascade}}, when {{Ash}} was about to challenge the Sensational Sisters.

They were originally going to battle {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} for the {{badge|Cascade}}, but {{an|Misty}} appeared at the last minute and asked that she battle him instead. They tease Misty about the battle later, implying that she may have [[PokéShipping|a crush on Ash]]. The Sensational Sisters appear again later in ''[[ET05|The Human Race and the Pokémon Race]]'', where they are attending the [[Nomads Independence Day]] festival with Misty.<br /> <br /> Like many female characters in the manga, the Sensational Sisters are all depicted with large busts (and in skimpy swimsuits), though this is edited out of [[VIZ Media]]'s English translations.<br /> {{-}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * In ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]'', Misty called herself &quot;the youngest sensational sister,&quot; but her sisters told her that she did not yet possess the qualities needed to become one.<br /> ** Similarly, in The Electric Tale of Pikachu, Misty tells Ash that he will never forget &quot;the four sisters of Cerulean.&quot; Ash responds with, &quot;You mean, the three sisters and the loser!&quot;<br /> * The sisters are all named after a type of flower.<br /> * {{an|Daisy}} is the only sister that has a nicknamed Pokémon.<br /> * The three {{tc|Beauty|Beauties}} at the Cerulean Gym in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] are named after the Sensational Sisters.<br /> * In Takeshi Shudō's novel, ''[[Pocket Monsters: The Animation]]'', it is revealed that these sisters are actually wearing wigs and that their natural hair color is black. <br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Langtable|color={{water color}}|bordercolor={{water color light}}<br /> |da=De sensationelle søstre&lt;!--source: Danish version of The Official Pokémon Handbook--&gt;<br /> |de=Azuria-Schwestern<br /> |fi=Sensaatiomaiset siskokset<br /> |es=Hermanas Sensacionales<br /> |fr=Sœurs Sensationnelles<br /> |it=Sorelle Sensazionali<br /> |pt=Irmãs Sensacionais<br /> |sv=De sensationella systrarna<br /> }}<br /> <br /> {{-}}<br /> {{Project Anime notice|no}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Anime characters|Sensational Sisters]]<br /> [[Category:Gym Leaders|Sensational Sisters]]<br /> [[Category:Female characters|Sensational Sisters]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Azuria-Schwestern]]<br /> [[fr:Sœurs Sensationnelles]]<br /> [[it:Sorelle Sensazionali]]</div>

It was first broadcast in Japan on January 29, 2004 and in the United States on December 11, 2004.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_21-disaster-of-disguise/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Drew loses a Pokémon battle to the mysterious &quot;Phantom,&quot; a masked Pokémon Trainer using a Dusclops. Because of the injuries sustained by his Roselia, Drew has to drop out of the Pokémon Contest in Verdanturf Town.<br /> <br /> May is there to compete with her Skitty, and while practicing she is challenged to a battle with Phantom that Ash accepts instead. The battle is interrupted by the arrival of a woman in a limo who chases the Phantom into the woods. <br /> <br /> The woman reveals she is looking for her son Timmy, who has been missing a lot lately, usually when the Phantom is around. The kids follow her to a mansion where they meet the entire family. Timmy's father reveals that Tommy is the Phantom, disguising himself only because his mother hates Pokémon.<br /> <br /> Brock dresses up as the Phantom to fool the mother, but Team Rocket shows up to unmask the Phantom for a huge reward. Skitty's Blizzard attack frees Brock but also unmasks him by accident. Brock quickly runs off, and it appears that the mother did not see his face. Timmy decides to compete in the Pokémon Contest.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> While preparing to enter the [[Verdanturf Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]] with {{TP|May|Skitty}}, {{an|May}} and the others are amazed when they encounter her [[rival]] [[Drew]] who announces that he is not going to enter as his {{TP|Drew|Roselia}} is injured after a battle with a {{p|Dusclops}} belonging to a masked {{pkmn|Coordinator}}. He warns the gang to watch out for the mysterious Coordinator who goes by the name &quot;Phantom&quot;. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} are also in {{pkmn|training}} and [[Jessie]] is preparing to enter {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} into the Verdanturf Contest. Soon, however, Phantom approaches {{Ash}} and the gang and challenges them to a battle, Ash accepts the challenge and pits {{AP|Pikachu}} against Phantom's Dusclops. Ash attempts to use {{type|Normal}} attacks against Dusclops but, being a {{t|Ghost}} type it is unaffected. Dusclops deals heavy [[damage]] to Pikachu and it seems as thought Phantom will win the battle.<br /> <br /> However, a car pulls up and Phantom flees, a large middle aged woman chases after him but soon loses him. While running away, Phantom cuts his hand on a stray branch. The gang catch up with the woman and she reveals that she is concerned for her son [[Timmy Grimm|Timmy]] who has been skipping school and hanging around with the mysterious Phantom. The gang agree to reveal the identity of the Phantom so that he can be punished and stop influencing Timmy. Team Rocket overhear the conversation and also begin searching for the Phantom. The gang are taken to Timmy's house where he is seen to be making notes on a tough Pikachu he battled that day and also has a cut on his hand. Timmy's mother notices these details and realizes that Timmy may be the Phantom. Timmy's mother makes it clear that she doesn't want Timmy to be a Pokémon Trainer but instead wants him to CEO of her company when she leaves.<br /> <br /> Timmy's father is then revealed and tells the gang that he was once a great Pokémon Coordinator but when he met his wife he was forced to give it up because she hated Pokémon. However, his love for Pokémon remained so he created the Dusclops costume and entered Pokémon Contests as The Phantom whenever he was out of his wife's sight. However, Timmy's father gave up coordinating when his secret became too hard to keep and put his costume away. Until one day Timmy found a stray Duskull and his father made him a new Phantom costume so he could train in secret and become a Coordinator. The gang formulate a plan to help Timmy enter the Verdanturf Contest; {{an|Brock}} dresses in the Phantom costume and challenges May to a battle with both Timmy and his mother present. She begins to believe that Timmy is not the Phantom but Team Rocket appear and attempt to reveal Brock as the Phantom to claim a reward from Timmy's mother. Jessie's {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} constricts Brock making him unable to hold his mask on. Skitty uses {{m|Blizzard}} to blow Seviper away but Brock falls to the ground and reveals his face to Timmy's mother for a second. Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} to dispose of Team Rocket and Timmy's mother seems to believe the trick saying that she knew Timmy wasn't the Phantom and returning to work. The stage is set for Timmy and May to enter the Verdanturf Contest as rivals.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrive in [[Verdanturf Town]] and meet up with [[Drew]] again.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * [[Timmy Grimm]]<br /> * [[Tommy Grimm]]<br /> * [[Mrs. Grimm]]<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> =====TV episode debuts=====<br /> * {{P|Dusclops}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Drew]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Timmy Grimm]]<br /> * [[Tommy Grimm]]<br /> * [[Mrs. Grimm]]<br /> * [[Dr. Abby]] (flashback)<br /> * {{pkmn|Trainer}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG061.png|thumb|200px|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Chinchou}}<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Skitty}} ({{OP|May|Skitty}})<br /> * {{p|Seviper}} ({{OP|Jessie|Seviper}})<br /> * {{p|Cacnea}} ({{OP|James|Cacnea}})<br /> * {{p|Roselia}} ({{OP|Drew|Roselia}})<br /> * {{p|Duskull}} (The Phantom/[[Timmy Grimm]]'s; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Dusclops}} (The Phantom/[[Timmy Grimm]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Chansey}} ({{OP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}})<br /> * {{p|Delcatty}} ([[Dr. Abby]]'s; nicknamed &quot;Johnny&quot;; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Dusclops}} ([[Tommy Grimm]]'s; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Poochyena}} ({{pkmn|Trainer}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Torchic}} (flashback)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The dub title of this episode is a reference to the phrase &quot;master of disguise.&quot;<br /> * {{TRT}} is disguised similarly to {{wp|Tuxedo Mask}} of the ''{{wp|Sailor Moon}}'' series.<br /> * While the answer to the [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]] segment is correct, {{p|Volbeat}} would also be correct as it is a {{type|Bug}}, which is super-effective against {{p|Crawdaunt}}'s {{t|Dark}} type.<br /> * This episode first aired in Japan on the same day {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} was first released.<br /> * [[Timmy Grimm|Timmy]] says &quot;Float like a {{p|Butterfree}}, sting like a {{p|Beedrill}}&quot;, a reference to the famous phrase &quot;Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee&quot; from {{wp|Muhammad Ali}}.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * The bandage on Timmy's hand disappears when he first greets his mom downstairs. <br /> * When Timmy was trying to hide the {{p|Dusclops}} disguise from {{Ash}}, the white part on the hat was overlapping the computer screen.<br /> * When {{an|May}} is going to throw juggling balls to {{TP|May|Skitty}} to practice, she has three balls in her left hand and one ball in her right hand.

(Japanese: '''ピカチュウとのわかれ…！''' ''Parting with Pikachu...!'') is the 274th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]] and the final episode of the {{series|original}}. It first aired in Japan on November 14, 2002 and in the United States on October 25, 2003.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/06_12-hoenn-alone/--&gt;<br /> ''Ash has left all of his Pokémon behind in Pallet Town—except Pikachu—and boarded a ship bound for Littleroot Town in Hoenn. Unfortunately, Team Rocket is on board as well, and they're cooking up a scheme to catch Pikachu once and for all. They nab Pikachu and hop off the boat just as it pulls into a port. Their plan quickly goes awry, and Meowth and Pikachu end up in a bad neighborhood. While Meowth and Pikachu team up to chase off a gang of territorial Haunter, Ash teams up with Officer Jenny to rescue Pikachu before the boat leaves.''<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> Aboard a large ferry, {{Ash}} is on his way to [[Hoenn]], having left all of his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} except {{AP|Pikachu}} behind in [[Pallet Town]] beforehand. They talk about what they will do when they get to [[Hoenn]] when the captain and his {{p|Machoke}} walk past. Ash asks him when the ship will get to [[Littleroot Town]], and the Captain and Ash have a chat about Hoenn. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} is watching from their hiding place inside a lifeboat, and start to discuss about stealing Pikachu.<br /> <br /> That night, Team Rocket uses their extendable grabber to snatch Pikachu from Ash's bed. He wakes up when Pikachu cries out, but by the time he gets out of his room, Team Rocket is nowhere to be seen. While he is searching he comes across the captain, who used a computer to scan the ship for stowaways. They discover Team Rocket is hiding in the food storage area.<br /> <br /> In the food storage area, Team Rocket is stuffing their faces while Pikachu is in an electricity-proof glass case. When they are discovered, they launch into their motto, before sending out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}} to battle the captain's Machoke. Ash intends to send out one of his Pokémon to help, but then remembers that he left them all in [[Pallet Town]]. Machoke dodges a {{m|Poison Sting}}, but gets blinded by {{m|Smokescreen}}, allowing Weezing to hit it with {{m|Tackle}}. Then Arbok uses {{m|Acid}}, Machoke dodges, causing it to eat through the water storage tank, and thus, everyone to be swept away in a torrent of water.<br /> <br /> The captain and Machoke manage to climb out of the water, where he orders the ship to the nearest port for repair. Team Rocket runs along the deck of the ship and launches a rope to a nearby crane, allowing them to swing to shore. As they are swinging Ash jumps and grabs onto {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, but they swing into the crane and all fall to the port below. Ash lands on some crates, breaking one, trapping him. [[Jessie]], [[James]] and Wobbuffet land on one truck, and {{MTR}} and Pikachu land on another. Both trucks then drive off, but they both go in different directions, splitting the groups up. Ash manages to break out of the crates just as [[Officer Jenny]] pulls up on her bike and Ash explains what happened.<br /> <br /> The truck which Meowth and Pikachu are on is driving past some warehouses when it swerves suddenly, tossing them off. Pikachu's cage opens, but Meowth and Pikachu work together. While they are walking along, Meowth and Pikachu start to argue, but then a {{p|Haunter}} comes up behind them and attacks them with {{m|Night Shade}}. They both dodge it and then Meowth retaliates with {{m|Fury Swipes}}, which just passes straight through it. Haunter uses another Night Shade, and then Pikachu {{m|Thunderbolt}}s it, scaring it off. Some {{p|Pidgey}}, {{p|Oddish}} and {{p|Rattata}} then appear around them.<br /> <br /> Back by the ship, Ash is in Officer Jenny's sidecar, and they are ready to leave. The captain calls down to Ash that the tank should be fixed by nightfall, and that if he is not back by then they will be forced to leave without him. Jenny then sends her {{p|Pidgeot}} to look for Team Rocket.<br /> <br /> In one of the warehouses, the Pokémon are explaining to Pikachu and Meowth that a group of Haunter has moved into the area and started scaring everyone. At that point another Oddish runs up and tells them that Haunter is coming for them with all of its buddies.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket is in their balloon, and while James is searching for Meowth, Jessie is more interested in finding Pikachu. Back with Ash, Officer Jenny asks Ash about his Pikachu, and he explains to her why they are so close and why Pikachu is the only Pokémon he has on him. Pidgeot spots something and speeds up, and Officer Jenny follows.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, the Haunter have shown up and tell the others to get out of their turf. Meowth tries to back away from them and talk his way out of it, but Pikachu says that the area is for all the Pokémon, not just the Haunter. Meowth queries what he is doing, but Pikachu says that that is what Ash would have done, and that it is the right thing to do. Haunter then launches a {{m|Shadow Ball}} at them, which they both dodge. Pikachu launches a Thunderbolt, but the Haunter dodge it and surround them. They all use Night Shade, but Pikachu jumps onto Meowth and then jumps out of the way, pushing Meowth down under the attack, and making the Haunter hit each other. Pikachu then electrocutes them all with Thunderbolt, and they flee.<br /> <br /> The Pokémon then ask Pikachu and Meowth to stay and protect them, but then Team Rocket shows up and traps Pikachu in a metal sleeve. They retrieve Meowth with their grabber, before using an electromagnet to stick Pikachu to their balloon. Just as they do, Pidgeot shows up and pierces their balloon, causing it to crash to the ground. Ash and Pikachu are reunited, but then Team Rocket re-activates their electromagnet. Ash refuses to let go, and gets slowly dragged along towards it, but then James ups the power, pulling some nearby metal drums towards it, exposing the Haunter and smashing into Ash. He is knocked over, and Pikachu gets stuck to the magnet which starts to suck all of the electricity out of him causing Pikachu a lot of pain. Ash and Jenny can't do anything, but then one of the Rattata uses {{m|Hyper Fang}} to break the metal sleeve, freeing Pikachu. Team Rocket then runs towards him, but the Haunter use Night Shade on the electromagnet, sending them blasting off. The Haunter and Rattata then shake hands, as Ash cradles Pikachu.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, the captain regretfully looks over the port as the ship starts to sail off into the sunset. Pidgeot then flies up above them with Ash and Pikachu on its back. That night, Pikachu is sleeping on Ash's bed while he is looking at him. he then tucks him in, saying that he deserves a good rest. On the outside of the ship, Team Rocket is stuck to the electromagnet, which has attached to the hull of the ship, by a couple of metal poles from their balloon.<br /> <br /> As the boat approaches Littleroot Town, Ash steps up on the deck in his new clothes and looks on, eager to reach Hoenn. Some {{p|Wingull}} and {{p|Pelipper}} fly alongside the ship, some {{p|Sharpedo}} jump out of the water around it and some {{p|Wailmer}} swim alongside it. This takes place as Pikachu sleeps inside the boat. Ash goes to wake him up to show him all of the new Pokémon, but when he tries to touch him, Pikachu starts to spark, and Ash realizes that he has a serious fever. With that, the episode ends as Ash looks worriedly upon the friend he has known since the start of his journey.<br /> <br /> '''Next Time ...

The segment continues in the [[dub]] until ''[[AG040|Watts with Wattson?]]''. It returns in the dub starting with ''[[BW001|In the Shadow of Zekrom!]]'', and in the original version starting with &quot;[[BW061|Battling the King of the Mines!]]&quot;.<br /> * The regular use of the original music of {{TRT}}'s {{motto}} also ends with this episode. However, it has been reused in a few later episodes.<br /> * The usual ''To be continued'' title card is omitted and replaced with ''Next time...

It was first broadcast in Japan on July 15, 1999 and in the United States on September 15, 2000. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/02_48-bound-for-trouble/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;After leaving Trovita Island, Ash and his friends stop off at a place that has a reputation for super-sized Pokémon. After falling for a Team Rocket trick that lands them in a giant hole in the ground, Pikachu gets stolen once again. This time Team Rocket locks Pikachu and Meowth together just before a giant Pidgeot swoops down and grabs them. Can the two survive in a land of giant Pokémon, being stuck together and without a key?&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot== <br /> With {{Ash}} earning his third Badge, he and {{ashfr}} have now stopped on [[Fairchild Island|an island]] known to have [[Giant Pokémon|larger-than-normal]] {{p|Pidgeot}} and {{p|Rhydon}}. {{AP|Pikachu}} looks at the map and points at a mark, now inspired to look for buried treasure. The group runs into a fruit basket in the middle of the road. Ash goes for it, but {{an|Misty}} stops him, suspecting a trap. She points to a nearby fruit tree as an alternative, and as they go for it, they fall into a trap hole. One of the apples falls onto Ash’s head, and he tries to eat it, finding out it is a fake.<br /> <br /> {{TRT}} reveals themselves and how they used {{wp|reverse psychology}} with the real fruit basket, causing Ash to pin the blame on Misty for her poor judgment, but she dismisses the subject and orders Ash to &quot;find them a way out of there&quot;. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] send out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}}. Ash sends Pikachu out of the hole and attacks with {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but Team Rocket uses special gloves to deflect the attack, and Pikachu is made dizzy by Arbok's {{m|Poison Sting}} and Weezing's {{m|Poison Gas}}, respectively. {{MTR}} then breaks out a pair of blue belts with red spheres implanted into back of them, and hitched to the spheres is strong white rope. Before Pikachu can recover, Meowth locks one of the belts around Pikachu's waist and the other belt around his own waist. The Rockets then escape with their prize just as Ash, Misty, and {{Tracey}} climb out of the hole, too late to stop the villains from stealing Pikachu.<br /> <br /> Soon afterward, Pikachu stands helplessly amongst the Rockets as they prepare to take him back to {{an|Giovanni|their boss}}. However, their plans are foiled yet again when a giant Pidgeot swoops down and grabs the rope binding Pikachu and Meowth, with Meowth losing his electric deflection gloves in the ascent. As the bird makes off with him and Pikachu, Meowth thinks that Pidgeot is taking them back to its nest, and he asks Pikachu if he can do something about this. Pikachu responds by using Thunderbolt, and though he accidentally shocks Meowth on the first try, he manages to get the Pidgeot on the next try, causing it to release, sending them plummeting. Meowth, saying that there's no way he is going to break Pikachu's fall, attempts to use Pikachu as a cushion for the landing, but Pikachu tries to switch it around. After alternating, Pikachu emerges victorious and Meowth hits the ground first. This is not the end of their troubles, however, as the rope hitched to their belts leaves both Meowth and Pikachu stuck together in the middle of the island; Meowth reveals that Jessie has the key that unlocks the belts. Angered by this revelation, Pikachu shocks Meowth with Thunderbolt.<br /> <br /> Back where Team Rocket landed their [[Team Rocket's mechas|hot-air balloon]], Jessie and James wonder if Meowth can bring Pikachu back, but then say &quot;No way&quot;. Ash and his friends corner them with {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}. However, they quickly stop the Trainers and explain about the abduction. Team Rocket takes off in the balloon to search, and the heroes decide to do the same. Tracey sends out {{TP|Tracey|Marill}} to listen for Pidgeot, leading them to Pidgeot’s nest atop a giant rock spire. Ignoring Misty's advice instead of listening to her like before, Ash climbs up to the top, only to discover that the nest is empty. The Pidgeot subsequently returns and dive-bombs Ash, knocking him off the spire and back down to his friends. Apparently undaunted, Ash gets up and continues to search. Both Misty and Tracey know how close Ash and Pikachu are and that Ash will not stop searching.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Meowth and Pikachu run into a fork in the road and try to go separate ways, but the rope causes them to knock each other over flat on their faces. Meowth goes into a frenzy and angrily declares that they will be going in the direction he wants to go, but Pikachu threatens to shock Meowth again, forcing him to cooperate. After a moment, Meowth knows that Pikachu is in charge and tries to put up a friendly attitude, but Pikachu knows Meowth is deceptive and breaks it with another electric blast.<br /> <br /> Meowth and Pikachu are still walking, when suddenly Pikachu smells something. A giant Rhydon comes up from behind and Pikachu tries to run, but Meowth is too scared. Rhydon attacks and Pikachu pulls them away and up the hill, with Rhydon in hot pursuit. Rhydon knocks them around and they make another run. They both fall down a cliff and continue running, but Rhydon is gaining. They get boxed into a canyon, and Pikachu chooses to fight with Thunderbolt, but Rhydon, being a {{type|Ground}}, negates the attack. It prepares to rush and Pikachu comes up with a plan. Both Pokémon jump up onto Rhydon and Meowth tickles it to get it to laugh, and Pikachu fires a Thunderbolt into its mouth to knock it out. Both applaud the teamwork. Ash and the others find Pikachu's footprints from the Rhydon struggle. They follow the tracks to the cliff, and Ash jumps down the cliff to continue looking. Jessie and James are still searching from the balloon without much success.<br /> <br /> Night falls and both Pikachu and Meowth are hungry from fatigue. They find one apple on a tree and make a run for it. Meowth jumps for it, but Pikachu pulls Meowth down with the rope before using Thunderbolt to bring it down. Pikachu prepares to eat it all, but after seeing Meowth’s sadness decides to split the apple. Meowth realizes how nice Pikachu is and talks about how they could have been friends had things in their lives had gone differently. He thinks Pikachu should abandon Ash and join Team Rocket, believing the two would make a great team. However, Pikachu can't hear him as he has fallen asleep in Meowth's lap. Meowth simply chuckles &quot;I can dream, can't I?&quot; and goes to sleep.<br /> <br /> The next day, the two wake up and the giant Pidgeot swoops down after them. They try to run, but the giant Rhydon cuts them off. Both prepare to attack, but Ash and Team Rocket arrive. Ash sends out {{AP|Snorlax}} to stop Rhydon while Jessie sends Arbok to stop Pidgeot. Snorlax uses {{m|Mega Punch}} to send Rhydon flying while Arbok uses {{m|Wrap}} and {{m|Bite}} to send Pidgeot scurrying. Meowth runs up to Jessie and James, but is crushed that Team Rocket searched for Meowth only to get to Pikachu. Pikachu runs up to Ash, but James pulls on Meowth in a tug-of-war, Ash demanding them to let go of Pikachu while Meowth screams for James to let go of him. Ash sends Bulbasaur out, knocking Meowth out of James’s grip. Ash sends Pikachu to attack, and James sends out {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, which bites Arbok. Bulbasaur uses {{m|Vine Whip}} to send both of them flying back. Jessie loses the key and Ash grabs it, unlocking both Pikachu and Meowth. Team Rocket runs back to the balloon and prepares a cannon. Misty tries to send out Staryu, but {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} comes out instead. The cannon prepares to fire and Misty orders Psyduck to use {{m|Confusion}}. {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} uses {{m|Metronome}}, which causes the balloon to explode and sends Team Rocket flying. They think Psyduck did it, but Misty suspects Togepi did. Ash and Pikachu hug after being separated. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is battered and hungry. They find an apple, and all three fight for it, with Jessie eating it all. Meowth misses Pikachu's kindness.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> &lt;!-- This is not for summarizing everything that happens in this episode.

(Japanese: '''迷いの森・・・進化の夜明け！''' ''The {{tt|Bewildering Woods|Winding Woods}}... The Dawn of Evolution!'') is the 121st episode of the {{series|XY}}, and the 920th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on May 26, 2016 and in the United States on August 27, 2016.<br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/19_28-seeing-the-forest-for-the-trees/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash is alone in the forest after losing at the Snowbelle Gym. Serena tracks him down, but they end up in a shouting match, and she runs off after angrily telling Ash to start acting like himself again!<br /> <br /> Soon, a snowstorm sets in, and Ash takes shelter in a cave with some frightened Pokémon. He gets into trouble while trying to help a stranded Spewpa—but Greninja shows up just in time, and then shifts effortlessly into Ash-Greninja to rescue Spewpa!<br /> <br /> When our heroes reunite, Ash promises not to overdo it again—a promise Greninja soon has to enforce when Ash learns the Kalos League is coming to Lumiose City!&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> After losing to [[Wulfric]] during the [[XY120|previous episode]], {{Ash}} was sitting alone in the {{rt|20|Kalos|Winding Woods}}, thinking about his recent defeat. But [[Nurse Joy]] revealed to {{ashfr}} that his {{AP|Greninja}} also ran away, though she told them that its strength was back to normal after its defeat. They don't know where Greninja went, but Serena guessed that it ran off to find Ash. Tired of waiting, {{an|Serena}} decided to find Ash herself. {{an|Bonnie}} asked her brother if Ash will be back, with {{an|Clemont}} responding that there's no need to worry. {{AP|Pikachu}} releases {{AP|Talonflame}}, {{AP|Hawlucha}}, and {{AP|Noivern}} from Ash's belt and asks them to find Ash, as he is worried about him. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} is spying on Ash and wondering what is up with the twerp, and figured this will the perfect time to capture Pikachu. Greninja is also thinking about its recent battles and defeats, and wondering what it did wrong. Serena finds Ash in the woods, and ask if the latest gym battle is what was bothering him. She tells him that she understands from her experience from the contests, only for Ash yelling at her that she doesn't know how he felt and wanted to be alone. This gets Serena upset with Ash, and throws snowballs at him, saying that the Ash she knows always tries his best and never gives up. She ran off crying after the argument, as she wanted the real Ash back. This causes Ash to realize what Serena was talking about, and decides to get back into the Pokémon Center. Unfortunately, he rolls off the side of the mountain, getting lost in the process.<br /> <br /> Pikachu and Ash's other Pokémon are still searching for their missing owner, and Bonnie is now wondering where Serena vanished off to, though she came back after her brother noticed. Serena was still upset with her scuffle with Ash, with the siblings wondering why she is huffy. Nurse Joy tells the group that a snowstorm is coming through, and they need to get back. Pikachu asks Serena about saving Ash, with Serena reluctantly agrees to help out. So everyone except Clemont decided to go out into the forest to find Ash, with Clemont saying he needs to get his backpack. While searching for Ash, he stayed inside a cave for shelter. But things got worse when Team Rocket showed up to capture Pikachu. Pikachu defended himself by shocking them using {{m|Thunderbolt}}, though all it did was giving them a tickle. The trio decided that getting Pikachu isn't really worth it, as his shocks aren't as powerful and {{an|Giovanni}} wouldn't be too happy. Serena and the group found Pikachu, but they saw that the storm is getting worse and they need to find Ash very soon. [[Squishy]] detected a {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Zygarde|Zygarde Cell}} and ran off to find it, with Pikachu following its trail. However, the cell vanished off, though the group found a cave nearby thanks to it. Serena felt regret from scolding Ash earlier, and tells the group that she really admired Ash and didn't want to see him down. Clemont tells that they all admired Ash, and they'll continue looking for him after the storm dies out.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Ash is resting in a cave when he noticed a {{p|Oddish}}, {{p|Budew}}, {{p|Sentret}}, {{p|Zigzagoon}}, and {{p|Scatterbug}} out in the cold, and tells them that they can come inside, as he is friendly and is warm inside. He gets a instant flashback memory of his younger days, as this reminded him the time he offered some wild Pokémon shelter. Squishy decided to find Ash while the group were sleeping, though Pikachu notices a sound. Just as Ash was relaxing, he noticed a group of {{p|Spewpa}} sitting on as tree branch out in the cold, and decides to rescue them. Greninja meets up with Squishy and points out where Ash is heading. Ash was just about to rescue the last Spewpa when the branch breaks off, making them both fall off, though were rescued thanks to Greninja. Ash was glad to see it, but it was short lived when the Spewpa fell off. Greninja transforms into Ash-Greninja and was able to rescue the falling Spewpa, thanks to Ash.<br /> <br /> After the rescue, Ash stayed in the cave with Greninja and the other Pokémon and told Greninja about what happened prior to his {{pkmn|Trainer}} days, similar to what happened earlier. When Ash got lost, he rescued some Pokémon before a rainstorm hit them, and stayed with them inside a tree until the storm ended. This was what inspired him to become trainer. Ash apologized to Greninja about what happened at the gym battle. He realized after spending some time, that a team is not someone who has to do it alone, but together. Ash tells Greninja that they should start their training again, as a team. Once the storm died down later, Ash and the group of Pokémon came out of the cave, with the group of Spewpa evolving into {{p|Vivillon}}, and they flew off into the sky. The duo later found Serena and the others, and rejoined afterwards. Ash apologizes about leaving and before Serena could do the same towards Ash, he thanked her for snapping some sense into him. Squishy was happy, and contacts the other Zygarde Cells about Ash and Greninja's combined teamwork. But that gets interrupted with Team Rocket trying to get Pikachu, though that was stopped thanks to him and Greninja. Surprisingly, they were happy that a full throttle Thunderbolt blasted them off, as Pikachu is back in full strength.<br /> <br /> The next morning, the group found out that the [[Kalos League]] will be held in [[Lumiose City]]. Just as they're about to leave, Greninja offers its Poké Ball to Ash, as a reminder of their friendship. Ash promised that they'll do better at the rematch. They're now excited to their eighth badge!<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> &lt;!-- This is not for summarizing everything that happens in this episode.

The Fifth Badge!!'') is the 70th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 344th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on April 1, 2004 and in the United States on March 19, 2005. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_30-balance-of-power/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash challenges Gym Leader Norman for a badge. While they battle, Team Rocket is busy digging a tunnel under the Gym.<br /> <br /> Norman's Slakoth begins with Hidden Power, and Pikachu can't hit it. Pikachu is then immobilized by Slakoth's Blizzard, so Ash switches the Electric-type out for Torkoal. Torkoal takes out Slakoth with Flamethrower.<br /> <br /> In turn, Torkoal is taken down by a Scratch attack from Vigoroth. Ash sends Pikachu back out, and when the two Pokémon make physical contact, Vigoroth is paralyzed by Pikachu's Static ability. Pikachu uses Iron Tail to knock out Vigoroth, but also faints.<br /> <br /> In the end Ash's Grovyle faces off against Norman's Slaking. Slaking manages to counter all of Grovyle's attacks, and then uses Earthquake. The shaking disrupts Team Rocket's plans, and puts them up against some angry Dugtrio.<br /> <br /> Low on HP, Grovyle's Overgrow ability increases its Attack power, and the Grass-type knocks Slaking out with a combination of Pound and Leaf Blade. All his Pokémon defeated, Norman awards the Balance Badge to Ash.<br /> <br /> However, Max is upset at his father's loss, so he runs off with the badge. Norman talks things over with Max, explaining that the experience of losing is just as important as winning. Max returns the badge to Ash, who celebrates winning his fifth Gym badge.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} enters the [[Petalburg Gym]], ready for his {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Norman]]. Norman tells him that he's been waiting for another fight with Ash ever since their [[AG003|last battle]], and Ash says he's more than willing to take Norman up on his offer! Watching from the sidelines, {{an|May}} says she's excited to see how the match turns out. [[Max]] tells her that their dad is certain to win. {{an|Brock}} and [[Caroline]] tell him that he should just relax and enjoy the match without worrying about the final result. Outside of town, {{TRT}} begins construction on their new secret base. {{MTR}} says that after they finish building their base, {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}} will be certain to give them a promotion. With the thoughts of corporate credit cards as their motivation, all of Team Rocket, including {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}, begin working. Back at the Gym, {{ho|Kenny}} is the referee announces the rules of the match: three {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, but only Ash is allowed substitutions. Raising his flags, Kenny signals for the match to begin and both Ash and Norman send out their first Pokémon, Norman's {{p|Slakoth}} against [[Ash's Pikachu]]. Utilizing Pikachu's {{stat|Speed}}, Ash orders Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}}, Slakoth dodges and counterattacks with {{m|Shadow Ball}}. Jumping out of the way, Pikachu attacks with {{m|Iron Tail}} but misses once again as Slakoth leans out of the way. Dazed, Pikachu is unable to dodge Slakoth's {{m|Hidden Power}}, and is blasted across the arena.<br /> <br /> On the sidelines, Brock tells May and Max what kind of attack strategy their father is using. He knew from watching Ash before that he favored using Pikachu as an opener, using its powerful speed attacks to knock the enemy off balance and gain control of the battle. By using a slow Pokémon like Slakoth who could dodge Pikachu's attacks, Norman was forcing Ash to fight at his pace, giving him control over the match. As Pikachu recovers from Hidden Power, Ash realizes that he needs to change his strategy. He decides to try {{t|Electric}} [[Move|attacks]] and orders Pikachu to attack with {{m|Thunder}}. However, Slakoth dodges this attack as well, and responds with {{m|Blizzard}}. The incredible cold keeps Pikachu from attacking back, so Ash recalls him and calls out {{AP|Torkoal}} instead. Torkoal uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, which easily blasts through Slakoth's Blizzard and scores a direct hit, [[fainting|knocking Slakoth out]]. With Slakoth out of commission, Norman calls out his next Pokémon, {{p|Vigoroth}}. Dodging Torkoal's {{m|Overheat}}, Vigoroth knocks Torkoal out with {{m|Scratch}}. With Torkoal down, Ash sends Pikachu back into the arena. Brock explains that by using the hyperactive Vigoroth right after the slow laid back Slakoth Norman is able to disorient his opponents and knock them off balance, as the skills necessary to defeat Vigoroth are completely different from those used against Slakoth. Meanwhile, Team Rocket continues construction on their new hideout. Yelling through a megaphone, Meowth orders [[Jessie]] and [[James]] to work harder. They respond by dropping a box on him and telling him to help out too.<br /> <br /> In the arena, Vigoroth dodges a Thunderbolt from Pikachu and attacks with Scratch. Pikachu blocks the attack with Iron Tail, but is hit with a surprise attack when Vigoroth uses Flamethrower. Max says that it's amazing that Vigoroth can use an attack like Flamethrower, causing Caroline to tell him that Norman is fighting Ash more seriously then he fights normal {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. May says that Ash should substitute Pikachu, but Brock tells her that if he does that, his only reserve Pokémon will be the already injured Pikachu. He has no choice but to use Pikachu as long as possible. Sizing up Vigoroth, Ash suddenly comes up with a plan. He orders Pikachu to use Quick Attack, dodging a Flamethrower from Vigoroth. As Pikachu closes the distance, Norman orders Vigoroth to use Scratch, but is surprised when Ash tells Pikachu to take the hit. Vigoroth's Scratch attack hits home, but the powerful Pokémon is suddenly paralyzed by Pikachu's innate {{a|Static}} [[Ability]]. Seizing the opportunity, Pikachu attacks with Iron Tail, knocking Vigoroth out. However the effort is too much for Pikachu and he passes out as well, resulting in a double KO. After removing Pikachu from the battlefield, Ash and Norman send out their last remaining Pokémon, pitting {{TP|Norman|Slaking}} against {{AP|Grovyle}}. Ash attacks first by ordering Grovyle to use {{m|Bullet Seed}}, but Slaking easily blocks the attack with its hands, sustaining no damage at all. Grovyle attacks again with {{m|Leaf Blade}}, but Slaking grabs it mid attack and tosses Grovyle back across the arena. Slaking begins to attack with {{m|Focus Punch}} but is stopped after Grovyle hits it in the face with Bullet Seed. The attack angers Slaking, who begins to go into a rage. It attacks with a powerful {{m|Earthquake}}.<br /> <br /> In their new hideout, Team Rocket feels the effects of Slaking's Earthquake, which rouses a group of nearby {{p|Dugtrio}}. Blaming the Dugtrio for the Earthquake, Jessie kicks a rock at them. Angrily, the Dugtrio begin to chase Team Rocket around their cave. Meanwhile, Grovyle dodges the Earthquake by jumping. It attempts a {{m|Pound}} attack, but Slaking grabs it in midair and tosses Grovyle into the ceiling. Grovyle counterattacks with Bullet Seed, but Slaking blocks with a powerful {{m|Hyper Beam}}, which cuts through the Bullet Seed and sends Grovyle flying. Watching Grovyle struggle to its feet, Norman suggests that Ash withdraw from the match for Grovyle's safety. Ash begins to consider it, but stops when Grovyle indicates that it wants to keep fighting. Ash tells Grovyle to show Norman what it's made out of. Inspired by Ash's confidence, Grovyle activates its {{a|Overgrow}} Ability, which powers up its {{type|Grass}} attacks.<br /> <br /> Leaping back into combat, Grovyle dodges both an Earthquake and Slaking's clumsy attempts to grab it. It begins bouncing around the arena. Dodging a Hyper Beam, Grovyle hits Slaking with a powerful Pound. Norman congratulates Ash for his recovery, but tells him that he'll need more than just speed to beat Slaking. He orders Slaking to attack with Focus Punch while Ash tells Grovyle to use Leaf Blade. The two attack each other at the same time, and after a moment's pause, Slaking falls to the ground. Shocked at his father's loss, Max can only stare in disbelief as Brock and May congratulate Ash on his victory. Later, Norman presents Ash with the {{badge|Balance}} - however, before he can give it away, Max grabs it and runs away. Locking himself in the Gym's greenhouse, he tells everybody gathered outside that it was unacceptable for his dad to lose the match and that it's not okay for a Trainer like him to lose in a Pokémon battle. Norman tells him that losing is just as important as winning, and that sometimes life's most important lessons are learned through losing. Ash tells Max that he really doesn't need the Badge, beating Norman in a fight taught him enough that he'd be satisfied without one. Touched by their words, Max comes out and gives the [[Badge]] back, but not before promising his Dad that they'll battle too, once he becomes a Trainer.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> [[File:Ash Balance Badge.png|thumb|220px|Ash holding the Balance Badge]]<br /> * [[Ash's Pikachu]] is revealed to have {{a|Static}} as his Ability.<br /> * [[Ash's Grovyle]] is revealed to have {{a|Overgrow}} as its Ability.<br /> * {{Ash}} has his Gym match with [[Norman]] and wins, earning him the {{badge|Balance}}.<br /> * The group heads towards [[Fortree City]].<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Norman]]<br /> * [[Caroline]]<br /> * {{ho|Kenny}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG070.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Slugma}}<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Grovyle}} ({{OP|Ash|Grovyle}})<br /> * {{p|Torkoal}} ({{OP|Ash|Torkoal}})<br /> * {{p|Vigoroth}} ([[Norman]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Slakoth}} ([[Norman]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Slaking}} ({{OP|Norman|Slaking}})<br /> * {{p|Dugtrio}} (multiple)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * ''[[Challenger!!]]'' replaced ''[[Advance Adventure]]'' as the [[List of Japanese opening themes|Japanese opening theme]].<br /> * The dub episode's title is a reference to the geopolitical concept &quot;{{wp|balance of power}}&quot;.<br /> * Music from [[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]] is used in this episode.<br /> * Team Rocket doesn't recite the [[Team Rocket mottos|motto]] in this episode.<br /> * This episode aired on the 6th anniversary of ''[[EP001|Pokémon - I Choose You!]]''<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * In the Latin American dub, when Ash orders Grovyle to use Leaf Blade, he refers to the move as Razor Leaf, which is a common error.<br /> ** Also when Brock explains the strategy of Norman between Slakoth and Vigoroth, he calls Slakoth as Slaking.<br /> * When Jessie's eyes brim with tears, her lipstick disappears.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> ====[[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]====<br /> * Question: Trainers, which one of these Pokémon evolves into {{p|Magcargo}}?<br /> * Choices: {{p|Torkoal}}, {{p|Corphish}}, {{p|Slugma}}<br /> * Answer: Ok, Trainers!

Fighting Showdown!!'') is the 149th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 423rd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on October 27, 2005 and in the United States on September 16, 2006.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/09_04-wheel-of-frontier/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash is about to reach the Battle Arena, but Team Rocket has gotten there ahead of him! They're pretending to be students of Greta, the Arena Tycoon, but the curriculum is a little too tough for them. Will this trick really let them get their hands on Ash's Pikachu? Meanwhile, Ash runs into Scott, who tells him that Greta prefers Fighting-type Pokémon. This gives Ash an idea...<br /> <br /> Scott and Ash show up at the Battle Arena, where Greta has Ash spin a wheel to determine how many Pokémon they'll battle with. Ash spins a two, so Greta's Hariyama and Medicham will face off against Ash's Grovyle and Snorlax, who Ash brought back just for this battle. Grovyle is fast, but Hariyama uses its speed against it and Grovyle is soon knocked out. Ash sends out Snorlax and uses a defensive strategy to defeat Hariyama, whose powerful punches aren't as damaging to the big Pokémon. Greta's Medicham could be a different story, though!<br /> <br /> Team Rocket is accidentally revealed during the Pokémon battle, but Pikachu zaps them before they can do anything. Then it's right back to the battle, where Medicham's attacks are proving to be pretty dangerous to Snorlax. After some close calls, Ash hits on a novel idea: have Snorlax use Hyper Beam to propel itself into the air and land on Medicham! This wins Ash the battle—and a shiny new Frontier Symbol! Greta tells Ash that the next stop on the Battle Frontier is the Battle Dome, and he's soon on his way!&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} is in a [[Pokémon Center]] getting psyched for his {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Arena}} match when [[Scott]] calls to him from across the room. They talk for a few seconds, and Ash vows to get his next [[Frontier Symbol]].<br /> <br /> At the Battle Arena, dozens of men are being trained in karate-style moves by {{FB|Arena Tycoon|Greta}}. {{TRT}} is also being trained with the group. They are fatigued from doing so many arm thrusts. An assistant yells at them because they stopped moving. For the next exercise, the group has to crouch with cups balanced on their heads and shoulders. Team Rocket falls over and break their cups.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Scott explains to Ash group about Greta and two of her Pokémon, {{p|Medicham}} and {{p|Hariyama}}. He points out the similarity to two {{type|Fighting}} [[Gym Leader]]s, [[Brawly]] and [[Chuck]]. The group exits the Pokémon Center, but Ash stops and contemplates Greta's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Suddenly, he runs back into the Pokémon Center without any explanation.<br /> <br /> Later, the group reaches the Battle Arena, and Ash yells &quot;Hello.&quot; This doesn't work, so Scott goes up and shouts &quot;We wish to have a battle&quot;. The giant doors open, and Greta and the people she was training (minus Team Rocket) emerge. Ash introduces himself and he and Greta get excited about the challenge. Suddenly, a giant roulette emerges from the ground that is meant to determine how many Pokémon will take part in the battle. Ash pulls the roulette lever, and the spinner lands on two.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} look down at the group while [[James]] cleans the floor. {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}} jumps over and imitates him, rubbing the floor. James tells Mime Jr. how cute it is.<br /> <br /> A gong rings, and Ash and Greta prepare for their battle. The training group sits along the sidelines of the field, watching. Team Rocket pokes up behind them. Greta sends out Medicham and Hariyama, and Ash sends out {{AP|Grovyle}} and {{AP|Snorlax}}, who he retrieved from {{an|Professor Oak}}. {{an|May}} and [[Max]] are surprised to see that Ash has a Snorlax. Scott observes that Ash picked odd types of Pokémon to use against Fighting types.<br /> <br /> Grovyle and Hariyama fight first. Grovyle sends out {{m|Bullet Seed}}, and Hariyama blocks. Hariyama charges at Grovyle, but Grovyle jumps into the air and shoots another Bullet Seed. Hariyama dodges and grabs Grovyle's leg to throw it on the ground before shoving it through the air, making it land on its back. Ash tells Grovyle to use {{m|Quick Attack}} and Hariyama goes to dodge, and Grovyle uses {{m|Leaf Blade}} twice. The first time knocks Hariyama back, but then Hariyama responds with a {{m|Focus Punch}} that sends Grovyle flying back before it can attack. It hits the ceiling, falls to the ground, and faints. Brock and Scott remark that even Grovyle's speed wasn't enough to defeat the strong Hariyama.<br /> <br /> Before Hariyama and Snorlax fight, everyone discusses Snorlax's odds of winning against a Fighting-type. Hariyama begins fighting but Snorlax {{m|Protect}}s itself and is eventually pushed back to the end of the field, apparently uninjured. Hariyama attacks again, but Snorlax dodges and hits Hariyama with a {{m|Headbutt}}, which pushes Hariyama back. Hariyama uses Focus Punch again, but Snorlax uses Protect again; however, it fails, and Snorlax falls back on its stomach. Greta orders Hariyama to use another Focus Punch, but Snorlax jumps up to dodge, and Hariyama's fist hits the ground, injuring it. Ash tells Snorlax to use {{m|Ice Punch}}, which {{status|freeze}}s Hariyama, defeating it.<br /> <br /> Medicham jumps into play and shows off. Meanwhile, Meowth has a plan...<br /> <br /> Greta tells Medicham to use Focus Punch, and Snorlax Protects itself again, but it doesn't work so well and it falls back after the punch and a kick. Greta orders another Focus Punch, and Ash orders {{m|Hyper Beam}}. It misses, and Snorlax, hit, flies into the crowd of trainees. Team Rocket's disguises fall off, and they perform their {{motto}}. They jump to grab Ash's Pikachu, but he {{m|Thunderbolt}}s them into the sky.<br /> <br /> The match continues, and Ash tells Snorlax to use Ice Punch while Medicham is told to do the same thing. Snorlax is hit and freezes, making it immobile. Ash suddenly remembers something and tells Snorlax to use {{m|Rest}}. It falls asleep, and Greta orders more Focus Punches to reach it through the ice. The ice breaks away, and just as Medicham is about to strike, Snorlax wakes up and dodges. Ash orders another Hyper Beam, which Medicham dodges. It uses Ice Punch again and hits. Another Hyper Beam is ordered, but Snorlax can't do it. Greta orders more Focus Punches, which hit Snorlax repeatedly. However, it charges its Hyper Beam, and just as Medicham is about to finish it off, Ash tells Snorlax to direct the Hyper Beam to the ground blasting it up near the ceiling, where it rocks down to crush Medicham with {{m|Body Slam}}. Medicham faints. Ash is declared the winner, and Ash and Snorlax hug excitedly.<br /> <br /> Outside the Battle Arena, Greta awards Ash the Guts Symbol. Scott tells Ash that the next facility is the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Dome}}. The group walks off toward it...<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> [[File:Ash Guts Symbol.png|thumb|220px|Ash holding the Guts Symbol]]<br /> * {{Ash}} temporarily returns his {{AP|Snorlax}} back to his [[party|team]] from {{an|Professor Oak}}'s {{TP|Professor Oak|Laboratory}}.<br /> * Ash and {{ashfr}} arrive at the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Arena}} and meet [[Arena Tycoon Greta]], the second [[Frontier Brain]].<br /> * Ash's Snorlax is revealed to have learned {{m|Protect}} and {{m|Rest}}.<br /> * Ash defeats Greta, earning the [[Symbol|Guts Symbol]].<br /> * Ash learns the next {{gdis|Battle Frontier|III}} facility is the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Dome}}, located south of [[Lavender Town]].<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * {{FB|Arena Tycoon|Greta}}<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Scott]]<br /> * [[Chuck]] (flashback)<br /> * [[Brawly]] (flashback)<br /> * {{FB|Arena Tycoon|Greta}}<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Battle judge|Referee]]<br /> * Trainees<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Mime Jr.}} ({{OP|James|Mime Jr.}})<br /> * {{p|Snorlax}} ({{OP|Ash|Snorlax}})<br /> * {{p|Grovyle}} ({{OP|Ash|Grovyle}})<br /> * {{p|Hariyama}} ([[Arena Tycoon Greta|Greta]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Medicham}} ([[Arena Tycoon Greta|Greta]]'s)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The opening animation is updated to include [[Brock's Marshtomp]]. Greta, however, remains a silhouette.<br /> * {{so|Battle Frontier}} was played during Greta and Ash's battle in the Japanese version.<br /> * Normally, {{Ash}} says the episode title. In this episode, Ash, May, Max, and Brock all say the title together. This is because they were trying to imitate the opening of Wheel of Fortune which includes the entire crowd saying &quot;Wheel of Fortune&quot;.<br /> * This is the first time in the anime that a Pokémon had to recharge after using {{m|Hyper Beam}} (like in the games).<br /> * This episode was originally believed to be titled &quot;Wheel of... Fortune&quot;. This turned out to be incorrect, though the actual dub title remains a play on the popular game show {{wp|Wheel of Fortune (U.S. game show)|Wheel of Fortune}}.<br /> * Greta actually knows who Team Rocket are and what they do.<br /> * In respect to dojo tradition, no footwear is permitted in the Battle Arena. As a result, everyone is barefoot throughout the entire match, including Ash and Greta.<br /> * In the English dub, as Team Rocket blasts off, Meowth says, &quot;Who's dumber, the dummy or the one who listened to the dummy?&quot; This is possibly a reference to the 1977 film {{wp|Star Wars (film)|''Star Wars''}}, in which {{wp|Obi-Wan Kenobi|Ben Kenobi}} famously says, &quot;Who's the more foolish, the fool, or the fool who follows him?&quot;<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * During Ash's battle with Greta, Greta told her Medicham to &quot;use dodge&quot;, as if it was an attack. In reality, dodge is a battle tactic used in the anime to avoid attacks.<br /> * Although Ash tells Snorlax to use {{m|Protect}}, the move animation is that of {{m|Harden}}. Protect normally creates a green barrier like shown in video games and later ''[[AG153|Tactics Theatrics!]]'' by Tucker's Swampert, and Harden is a small flash of light just before they get hit.<br /> * In a lot of the scenes during Ash's battle with Greta, Snorlax's feet were the same color as its body.<br /> * Inside the Battle Arena, everyone is barefoot. However, May is shown wearing socks in one frame when she should be barefoot.<br /> * Scott mispronounces Cianwood City while telling Ash about Greta.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Epilang|color=77FF77|bordercolor=55DD55<br /> |zh_cmn={{tt|對戰競技場！格鬥對決！！|Battle Arena!

(Japanese: '''エネコとアロマテラピー！''' ''{{tt|Eneco|Skitty}} and Aromatherapy!'') is the 47th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 321st episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on October 16, 2003 and in the United States on October 23, 2004.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_07-i-feel-skitty/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;May is practicing for her next Pokémon Contest, when Torchic finds a Skitty in the bushes. May wants to catch it, but it's too sick to battle. Brock leads the group to the Greenhouse, where Skitty can be healed using Aromatherapy.<br /> <br /> Eliza the therapist shows the kids her fragrance collection and uses a special mixture to make Skitty better while it sleeps. Meanwhile, Team Rocket flies overhead in a balloon and decides to steal some fragrance for their Pokémon.<br /> <br /> Skitty wakes up feeling much better, and May battles it using Torchic. Her attempt to catch Skitty is interrupted by Team Rocket bursting in. Jessie's Seviper uses Haze, causing a lot of confusion. Meowth completely falls for Skitty.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket flees, but Ash's Taillow wrecks their balloon. They manage to get away with one bag, finding Skitty inside. Jessie claims it as her own, much to Meowth's dismay. He helps Skitty run away.<br /> <br /> May and friends locate Team Rocket, and Jessie and May get into a fight over who gets to catch Skitty. May's Beautifly knocks out Jessie's Dustox. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt to send Team Rocket blasting away.<br /> <br /> May takes out her Poké Ball to catch Skitty, but Skitty knocks it out of her hand and jumps into it. As they're walking away, Skitty jumps out of the Poké Ball.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> The scene opens with {{an|May}} {{pkmn|training}} {{TP|May|Beautifly}} for the next [[Pokémon Contest]], while {{Ash}}, [[Max]], {{an|Brock}} and {{TP|May|Torchic}} look on. May throws a Frisbee and Beautifly uses {{m|Gust}} and successfully sends it back to May, who catches it. May, repeats the trick and succeeds again. The third time, however, May overthrows the Frisbee, which careens off into the forest. May asks if her Torchic would please fetch it for her. Torchic agrees and begins to run after it. Alas, the hill it's running on becomes much too steep, and it runs headfirst into a large boulder. Remarkably, it is unfazed and sees the disc on the ground nearby. As Torchic goes to pick it up, it hears something whining in a bush. It jumps after the unknown creature just as May and the others reach the bottom of the hill and call Torchic's name. Ash hears Torchic in the bushes and the gang goes into the bushes to discover Torchic and what appears to be an injured or sick {{p|Skitty}} with Torchic beside it.<br /> <br /> The scene opens with the gang gathered around the Skitty. Ash looks it up on his Pokédex, and May comments that it is so cute and she must catch it. She sends out Torchic to battle, but when the Skitty doesn't react, she realizes there is something wrong with it. Brock attempts to feed it some of his world-famous Pokémon Food mix, but the Skitty does not accept it. Brock declares he knows exactly what to do, and begins leading the gang to an unknown location. As they approach what appears to be a large mansion, many Grass Pokémon are about. Brock then announces that this is [[The Greenhouse]], a Pokémon aromatherapy laboratory. Ash is clueless as to what aromatherapy exactly means, so Brock explains that it is a method of healing using fragrances. A beautiful woman in a lab coat walks up, and Brock obviously goes crazy. He also says her name is Eliza, which he knows about through an infomercial. May explains their problem, and Eliza is more than happy to help. Inside, Eliza is giving the gang a tour and explaining some of the materials The Greenhouse stores. May shows Eliza the Skitty, and she reports that is merely experiencing fatigue, not sickness. The aromatherapist then concocts a brew right before their eyes, and places it in what appears to be some sort of fragrance distribution device. She explains once Skitty gets a good rest while breathing that fragrance in, it should be just fine. May requests to stay with Skitty, and Eliza agrees.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Eliza is giving the rest of the gang a tour of the premises. The scene cuts to {{TRT}} hovering over The Greenhouse in their balloon. Meowth has an [[Boss fantasy|ambitious vision]] of them presenting the boss with the fragrance and him rewarding them. The gang returns to find Skitty awakening, and much more energetic than before. Eliza walks in, and Brock leaps at her, but Max pulls him back for the fifth time so far. Skitty plays with Pikachu's tail and eats some lunch. May then sends out Torchic to battle the Skitty. The battle was almost over, but Team Rocket breaks in and says their motto. Seviper fires a haze, and Skitty runs up to Meowth, who appears enraptured by Skitty's cat-like charm. James bags some perfume, but Brock bravely tackles him, knocking some perfume onto the floor and mixing their scents. This creates a scent which is repulsive to the humans, but seems to make the Pokémon slaphappy. Team Rocket jumps out the window and tries to escape in their balloon. Before they can lift off, Brock tackles James and takes the bag of perfume he was holding. Jessie sends out Seviper and attempts to steal them back, but Corphish performs a {{m|BubbleBeam}}, knocking Seviper over. James sends out Cacnea and uses {{m|Pin Missile}}, but Corphish's {{m|Harden}} nulls the attack. James is then distracted by some Weepinbell. Corphish uses {{m|Crabhammer}}, knocking James into the swiftly ascending balloon. Ash sends out {{AP|Taillow}}, who uses {{m|Wing Attack}}, causing Team Rocket to blast off once again. May announces she can't find Skitty. Team Rocket discovers Skitty in a bag of perfume. Jessie announces that she wants it, and Meowth is distressed. Meowth takes Skitty away and tells it to run away. He can's convince it, but he throws a rock and the Skitty chases it. Taillow leads Ash and the gang to Team Rocket's crashed balloon. Eliza's Oddish uses {{m|Sweet Scent}}, to lure Skitty to them. Meowth and Wobbuffet are also lured by it and so Team Rocket meets up with Ash and the gang. Skitty walks out of a bush, causing May and Jessie to battle over it. Jessie uses Dustox, and May uses Beautifly. May wins, and then Ash tells Pikachu to use a {{m|Thunderbolt}} on Team Rocket. They blast off. Skitty willingly goes into May's Poké Ball. The episode ends with the prospect of the team finally making to [[Fallarbor Town]].<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * [[May's Torchic]] is revealed to know {{m|Quick Attack}}.<br /> * {{an|May}} {{pkmn2|caught|catches}} a {{TP|May|Skitty}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> =====TV episode debuts=====<br /> * {{p|Skitty}} ({{OP|May|Skitty}})<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * {{an|Giovanni}} ([[Boss fantasy|fantasy]])<br /> * [[Eliza]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG047.png|thumb|200px|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Weezing}}<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Taillow}} ({{OP|Ash|Taillow}})<br /> * {{p|Treecko}} ({{OP|Ash|Treecko}}; fantasy)<br /> * {{p|Corphish}} ({{OP|Ash|Corphish}})<br /> * {{p|Torchic}} ({{OP|May|Torchic}})<br /> * {{p|Beautifly}} ({{OP|May|Beautifly}})<br /> * {{p|Skitty}} ({{OP|May|Skitty}}; new)<br /> * {{p|Seviper}} ({{OP|Jessie|Seviper}})<br /> * {{p|Dustox}} ({{OP|Jessie|Dustox}})<br /> * {{p|Cacnea}} ({{OP|James|Cacnea}})<br /> * {{p|Oddish}} ([[Eliza]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Oddish}} (×3)<br /> * {{p|Weepinbell}} (×2)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * [[James]] wants to catch another {{p|Weepinbell}}, presumably as a replacement for his {{TP|James|Victreebel}}.<br /> * This episode's English title is a pun of the song &quot;I Feel Pretty&quot; from the Broadway Musical, ''{{wp|West Side Story}}''.<br /> ** Team Rocket's outfits as they give their motto are in reference to {{wp|William Shakespeare}}'s play ''{{wp|Romeo and Juliet}}'' (which ''West Side Story'' is an adaptation of), and they also are the same ones from ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]'' and ''[[EP088|In the Pink]]''.<br /> * The Finnish title of the episode is a reference to ''{{wp|Much Ado About Nothing}}'' (''Paljon melua tyhjästä''), a romantic comedy by William Shakespeare. <br /> * This is the first episode where [[Max]] pulls Brock from the ear when he falls in love with a girl.

Pokémon Contest!!'') is the 62nd episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 336th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on February 5, 2004 and in the United States on December 11, 2004.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_22-disguise-da-limit/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Timmy (aka &quot;Phantom&quot;) arrives late to register for the Pokémon Contest, because his mother gave him lots of homework to do. His father let him go, and confronts the mother when she comes to check on Timmy.<br /> <br /> Jessie is competing under an alias in the Contest, and her Dustox takes the lead in the first round. May's Skitty fails to do a Blizzard attack, losing points and putting May behind. May still progresses to the second round. <br /> <br /> In the second round May quickly dispatches her opponent, while Phantom beats Jessie in a tough battle. Jessie's disguise is blown off, and after losing she decides to try to steal Phantom's Dusclops instead. Pikachu sends them flying with Thunderbolt, also ripping off Timmy's mask.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Timmy's father talks to his wife and brings up the fact that she only hates Pokémon because her parents took her beloved Poochyena away from her when she was a child. She relents and decides to cheer Timmy on at the Contest.<br /> <br /> May and Timmy face off in the final round, and Skitty isn't doing so well until May instructs it to use Assist. Skitty quickly catches up and beats Dusclops. Timmy's mother encourages him to continue competing.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> The [[Verdanturf Town]] [[Pokémon Contest]] is about to begin and once again {{an|May}} is nervous. This is the first time she will be entering with {{TP|May|Skitty}}. Out in the lobby, {{Ash}} is worried because [[Timmy Grimm|Timmy]] is soon going to be too late to register for the competition, but thankfully he shows up just in time. Hiding nearby, {{TRT}} makes fun of Timmy for being late, since even they were able to register on time. [[Jessie]] continues to be confident that she and her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} will win. It later turns out that [[Mrs. Grimm|Timmy's mother]] was forcing him to do a lot of homework. Thankfully his father, [[Tommy Grimm]], helped him to sneak away to the [[Contest Hall]]. At home, Timmy's mother finds him gone, and Tommy openly states that he left to compete in the Verdanturf Contest.<br /> <br /> The [[Appeal|Appeals Round]] begins with [[Jessie]] in disguise, earning some good opening points with her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}}. Dustox uses {{m|Poison Sting}}, {{m|Whirlwind}}, and {{m|Psybeam}} together with impressive effect, earning high points from the [[Contest Judge]]s. Following a {{p|Charizard}} and a {{p|Blastoise}}, May takes the stage with {{TP|May|Skitty}}. Unfortunately their opening move, {{m|Blizzard}}, fails, so May tries to make up for it with Skitty using {{m|DoubleSlap}} to juggle. This works relatively well. Next is Timmy in his Phantom disguise with {{p|Dusclops}}. Dusclops uses {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} and {{m|Psychic}} together to dazzle the judges and earn a high score. When the results are announced, it is revealed that May, Timmy, Jessie, and a Coordinator by the name of [[Stefano]] have advanced to the [[Contest Battle]]s. Meanwhile, [[Mrs. Grimm]] and Tommy are on their way to the Contest Hall, with Mrs. Grimm enraged that her husband would let Timmy go to a Pokémon Contest. Tommy defends his actions, saying it's what Timmy loves to do. Mrs. Grimm says {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are a waste of time, but Tommy reminds her of her own involvement with Pokémon when she was Timmy's age.<br /> <br /> Back at the Contest Hall, the second round starts with {{an|May}} versus Stefano and his {{p|Wartortle}}, who loses in a matter of seconds. Jessie and Timmy then face off just as Timmy's parents arrive at the Contest Hall. Jessie's Dustox opens with a {{m|Whirlwind}}, which Dusclops counters with {{m|Shadow Punch}}. Dustox tries a {{m|Psybeam}} with much greater effect. Dustox uses Psybeam again, but this time Dusclops stops it with {{m|Psychic}}, causing an explosion which exposes Jessie's disguise. The judges determine that Timmy is the winner of the battle, so Team Rocket tries to steal Dusclops. {{AP|Pikachu}} easily stops this with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, sending Team Rocket blasting off again. The explosion caused by the Thunderbolt causes Timmy's Phantom mask to come off, and Timmy suddenly notices that his parents are there. Much to Timmy's surprise, Mrs. Grimm apologizes and walks off. Later, Tommy explains that when Mrs. Grimm was Tommy's age, she loved Pokémon too, but she was expected to take over her parents' business, so &quot;childish&quot; things such as her {{p|Poochyena}} were taken away. Her parents forbade any further contact with Pokémon. Mrs. Grimm thought that if Timmy wasn't allowed to play with any Pokémon, then he wouldn't have his heart broken like hers was. Tommy encourages his son to make the most of this chance he has in the Contest, and the final round begins.<br /> <br /> Timmy's Dusclops starts off with a {{m|Focus Punch}}, hitting {{TP|May|Skitty}}. Skitty tries a DoubleSlap, but as a {{type|Normal}} attack, it doesn't affect the {{type|Ghost}} Dusclops. Dusclops uses another Focus Punch, but this time Skitty successfully counters with DoubleSlap, sending the Focus Punch back. Dusclops next uses Will-O-Wisp in combination with Psychic to further damage Skitty. Skitty tries a {{m|Tackle}} attack, but Dusclops counters with {{m|Hyper Beam}}. {{TP|May|Skitty}} tries a {{m|Blizzard}}, but the move fails again. Dusclops uses another Hyper Beam to damage Skitty again. Meaning to end the battle, Dusclops uses one more Hyper Beam, but May refuses to give up, this time having Skitty use {{m|Assist}}. The Assist creates a {{m|Gust}} which perfectly defends against the Hyper Beam. This defense evens out the score between the two contestants. Dusclops tries again to end the battle, this time with Focus Punch, but Skitty counters with Assist again, creating a {{m|String Shot}} to stop the move.<br /> <br /> On the sidelines, Timmy's mother is back and now encourages Timmy to win. Timmy now has enough confidence to battle without his Phantom mask. Giving it his all, Timmy has Dusclops use {{m|Will-O-Wisp}}. Skitty again counters with Assist, producing an {{m|Ember}} that stops Dusclops' attack. With another Assist, Skitty attacks with {{m|Silver Wind}}, but Dusclops stops it with Psychic. Dusclops again uses Hyper Beam. May decides to have absolute faith in her Skitty, and tells it to try Blizzard again. This time it works, and ends the battle with Dusclops, making May the winner of the [[Pokémon Contest]]. Mrs. Grimm decides to allow Timmy to continue entering Pokémon Contests as long as he does not fall behind on his homework, and May receives the Verdanturf [[Ribbon]], her second Contest Ribbon overall.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> [[File:May Verdanturf Ribbon.png|thumb|220px|May holding the Verdanturf Ribbon]]<br /> * {{an|May}} wins the {{to|Verdanturf}} {{pkmn|Contest}}, earning her second [[Ribbon]].<br /> * [[May's Skitty]] masters {{m|Blizzard}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Drew]]<br /> * [[Timmy Grimm]]<br /> * [[Tommy Grimm]]<br /> * [[Mrs. Grimm]]<br /> * [[Vivian Meridian]]<br /> * [[Raoul Contesta]]<br /> * [[Mr. Sukizo]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Stefano]]<br /> * {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG062.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Spheal}}<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Skitty}} ({{OP|May|Skitty}})<br /> * {{p|Dustox}} ({{OP|Jessie|Dustox}})<br /> * {{p|Dusclops}} (The Phantom/[[Timmy Grimm]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Poochyena}} ([[Mrs. Grimm]]'s; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Charizard}} (Coordinator's)<br /> * {{p|Wartortle}} (Coordinator's)<br /> * {{p|Blastoise}} (Coordinator's)<br /> * {{p|Vulpix}} (Coordinator's)<br /> * {{p|Marill}} (Coordinator's)<br /> * {{p|Poochyena}} (Coordinator's)<br /> * {{p|Spinda}} (Coordinator's)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The title is a pun of the saying, &quot;The Sky's the Limit&quot;.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * The Pokémon Trainer's Choice claims that {{p|Spheal}} would be the best choice to battle {{p|Wooper}} due to {{type|Ice}} being super-effective against {{t|Ground}}.

(Japanese: '''ピカチュウ、ロケット団に入る！？''' ''Pikachu, Joining {{tt|Rocket Gang|Team Rocket}}!?'') is the 89th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 363rd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on August 12, 2004 and in the United States on September 3, 2005.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_49-a-scare-to-remember/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;As Ash and friends walk to Lilycove City, a tree comes crashing down in front of them—pushed over by Team Rocket in their newest giant robot! They have Pikachu in hand, when the robot begins to sink into the ground and crumple. It explodes, sending everyone flying.<br /> <br /> The kids find themselves stuck in a tree—without Pikachu. Team Rocket is lost, and Meowth is nowhere to be found. Pikachu and Meowth wake up next to each other, and to Meowth's delight, Pikachu has no memory. Meowth convinces Pikachu that it was a part of Team Rocket and that the two of them are best friends.<br /> <br /> While the pair makes it may back to Team Rocket's secret base, Meowth witnesses Pikachu saving a Zigzagoon, not being scared of a high ledge, and even sharing an apple with Meowth. Eventually they make it back to the base, and Meowth updates Jessie and James.<br /> <br /> Ash and friends track down Pikachu to the cabin, where Team Rocket has Pikachu attack Ash. They try to get away in a balloon, but Ash grabs on. James orders Pikachu to use Thunderbolt, and they end up crashing. Ash and Pikachu land in the river and wash ashore. When they awake, Pikachu has its memory back.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket lands in the water nearby, and Pikachu sends them blasting off.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> As {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are walking in the woods on their way to the ferry port in [[Lilycove City]], {{AP|Pikachu}} is exceptionally happy. However, the ground starts shaking, and a tree starts falling down and almost hits Pikachu. After the sand clouds clear, a big machine appears and is holding Pikachu. It is a contraption belonging to {{TRT}}, which they call the Mean and Nasty, Grumpy Grabber Mark One. Ash orders Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but the attack doesn't even phase the machine because it is made of a bunch of insulated recyclables mixed in with a bunch of rubber hoses. Ash and friends charge at the machine; however, they fall into a pitfall dug by Team Rocket. Then, Team Rocket's machine starts sinking into the soft sand. After a short time, the machine itself starts crumbling and then explodes, causing everyone to fly in the air. Ash tries desperately to catch Pikachu, but he is much lighter than Ash, and so he flies through the air much faster.<br /> <br /> In the next scene, it appears Ash had blacked out and is starting to come around when he asks if everyone is alright. Everyone else starts coming around as well and says that they are okay as well. [[Max]] asks what happened and {{an|May}} thinks that Team Rocket's machine blew up. Then, Ash remembers what happened and starts frantically calling for Pikachu. Ash tries to make a run for it; however, he is stuck in a tree. Meanwhile, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are pasted to a tree themselves, having lost {{MTR}}. Jessie thinks they should go back to base, but James thinks otherwise, since Meowth might be lost. Meanwhile, Pikachu regains consciousness and finds himself sitting on top of Meowth's head. Meowth panics when he sees Pikachu, realizing that he might get zapped by him, but Pikachu doesn't do so. Meowth brings out his claws to attack Pikachu, but Pikachu doesn't do anything except stand there. Soon, Meowth realizes that Pikachu must have {{wp|amnesia}}. As a result, Meowth plots to convince Pikachu that he belongs to Team Rocket and has been since the day he was born and how much he's been through. Pikachu believes Meowth's claims.<br /> <br /> Ash orders {{AP|Swellow}} to go look for Pikachu, while {{an|Brock}} orders {{TP|Brock|Mudkip|Marshtomp}} to look as well. Meanwhile, Meowth and Pikachu are strolling happily through the woods, looking for the Team Rocket base. Then, a {{p|Zigzagoon}} appears out of the bushes along with a {{p|Beedrill}}. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt on the Beedrill and it flies away, rescuing Meowth. Next, they walk along a narrow ledge; Pikachu has no problem but Meowth is afraid. Meowth then tells Pikachu a lie on how he once saved Pikachu's life when he was burning up with fever and Meowth was nursing him back to health. Then, Meowth steps on a weak part of the ledge and falls through. Pikachu grabs Meowth by the tail and tries to pull him back up. Meanwhile, Mudkip detects a vibration to the right. They see footprints and recognize them as the tracks of Pikachu, Meowth, and a Zigzagoon.<br /> <br /> Meowth is seen sitting on the edge of a pond, looking down at his reflection and thinking that the explosion must have knocked them halfway across Hoenn and nowhere near home base. Pikachu comes with an apple and is willing to give it to Meowth, having realized that Meowth was hungry. Meowth learns that this was the only apple and Pikachu wouldn't have had any, so he decided to split it with Pikachu. Meanwhile, Ash and his friends are walking along the narrow ledge that Meowth and Pikachu crossed moments before. As they do so, Brock mentions that Pikachu doesn't seem to be putting up any type of struggle. Eventually, Swellow passes over Pikachu and Meowth while they are walking up a steep bank. Meowth starts feeling guilty on how it would be wrong to deprive Pikachu of his freedom. Pikachu then loses his balance and falls down the hill, but Meowth catches him.<br /> <br /> Jessie and James finally reach home base, where they debate whether they should go out and look for Meowth or stay in their current position. At that moment, Swellow comes in, sees Team Rocket's base, and goes back to tell Ash. Meowth and Pikachu also arrive at home base. There, Pikachu is unconvinced of Jessie and James's trustworthiness, but eventually believes Meowth's claims that they are friendly. Then, Ash arrives and sees what is happening. He tells Pikachu how worried he was about him and asks Pikachu if he remembers him. Pikachu decides to go to Team Rocket rather than Ash, stunning him. Team Rocket performs the {{motto}}, this time with Pikachu participating at the end along with Meowth. Ash continues trying to convince Pikachu that he is Pikachu's friend. James commands Pikachu to use Thunderbolt, which sends him flying. Brock finally comes to the conclusion that Pikachu has amnesia. Team Rocket runs into their base, it explodes, and they come out with their balloon. Ash grabs onto the basket, determined to rescue Pikachu. James orders Pikachu to use Thunderbolt, but it shocks everyone. Ash and Pikachu start falling, and Ash grabs on to him but they fall into a rushing river.<br /> <br /> The two eventually wash up ashore. Pikachu examines Ash and licks him on the face, causing him to regain consciousness. Ash sees Pikachu, realizes he remembers him, and hugs him. Brock, May, and Max finally catch up to Ash and Pikachu. Team Rocket falls from the sky and lands in the water. They asks them to help them out because they can't swim, but they tell Team Rocket to help themselves. Ash commands Pikachu to use Thunderbolt, which sends them blasting off again. Brock remarks on how great it is to have anyone back again, and May comments that it is times like these that make one appreciate your friends. Then, Ash promises that they would be friends forever.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * [[Ash's Pikachu]], during a bout of amnesia, temporarily joins {{TRT}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Norman]] (flashback; Japanese version only)<br /> * {{ho|Kenny}} (flashback; Japanese version only)<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG089.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Pikachu}}<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}}; temporarily {{TRT}}'s) <br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Chimecho}} ({{OP|James|Chimecho}})<br /> * {{p|Swellow}} ({{OP|Ash|Swellow}})<br /> * {{p|Mudkip}} ({{OP|Brock|Mudkip}})<br /> * {{p|Nosepass}} ({{OP|Roxanne|Nosepass}}; flashback; Japanese version only)<br /> * {{p|Vigoroth}} ([[Norman]]'s; flashback; Japanese version only)<br /> * {{p|Beedrill}}<br /> * {{p|Zigzagoon}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The dub features a song written especially for this episode, titled [[You Can't Remember]].<br /> * This marks the first and so far only instance of Team Rocket reciting their {{motto}} more than once in an episode without any interruption.<br /> * Meowth returns the favor to Pikachu by splitting the apple between them, as Pikachu did the same to Meowth in [[EP104|an earlier episode]].<br /> * The dub title is a reference to the film ''{{wp|A Walk to Remember}}''.<br /> * This episode is featured on ''Pokémon All-Stars: Pikachu'' from {{wp|Magna Pacific}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 4}} series.<br /> * Music from ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'', ''[[PK12|Gotta Dance!]]'', ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios &amp; Latias]]'', and ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'' can be heard in this episode.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * In the Japanese version, when Ash and Pikachu are floating through the river, Ash has flashbacks of his Gym battles with [[Roxanne]] and [[Norman]].

(Japanese: '''トウカジムの危機！家庭の危機！！''' ''{{tt|Touka|Petalburg}} Gym Crisis! Household Crisis!!'') is the 69th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 343rd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on March 25, 2004 and in the United States on March 12, 2005.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_29-love-petalburg-style/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash and friends finally arrive in Petalburg City. Ash heads to the Pokémon Center (PC) to take care of his team while everyone else visits May and Max's house. At the PC, Ash sees Norman talking to Nurse Joy.<br /> <br /> At the house, Norman's wife Caroline makes everyone lunch, and she seems very upset. The kids check out the greenhouse where Norman keeps his Pokémon, and his assistant Kenny explains that Norman has been going to the PC everyday to see Nurse Joy. The kids rush to the PC to yell at their father, just as Ash arrives at the house. Caroline shows up at the PC with her luggage and tells Norman she's leaving.<br /> <br /> Back at the greenhouse, Ash checks out Norman's Pokémon and gets into a battle with Team Rocket. Everyone returns to the house in the middle of the battle, and something in the greenhouse is damaged that makes Norman very upset. He has his Slaking use Focus Punch on Team Rocket to send them blasting off.<br /> <br /> It turns out that Nurse Joy was actually helping Norman prepare a fireworks display for his wedding anniversary, but it was ruined during the battle. Nurse Joys repairs the display, and that night they all watch the fireworks together.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} have finally returned to [[Petalburg City]], where {{an|May}} and [[Max]] are looking forward to seeing their family, and Ash is after another [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}}. As they walk through downtown, they spot yet another poster of [[Norman]], and realize he must be pretty famous and idolized here as well. Max and May already knew this, of course, and that he's been undefeated for a while. However, Ash is pretty motivated and confident about beating him, especially after having gone to the [[Pokémon Center]] several times. Max and May aren't too sure about that…<br /> <br /> While Ash splits up and goes to heal at the Pokémon Center, Max and May drop by at home for a visit and a pit stop, and boast about their progress and captures. When they get there, a young lad named {{ho|Kenny}} greets them at the doorstep. They all seem to know him, Max and May explain that this guy is one of Norman's best students, and he's a good cleaning man like {{an|Brock}}. However, Brock happened to meet him and get acquainted with him back when he was on his way from [[Pewter City]] to meet up with Ash and friends in [[Hoenn]], so he knows him too. Max and May ask him if their dad knows that they're around, but then he quickly changes to a suspicious tone and says that he's out doing some… business. Then, he whispers to them something about not to worry, he'll explain everything soon, but now is not the time. This leaves them utterly confused, but before they can say anything, [[Caroline]], their mother comes and greets them.<br /> <br /> As they say their hellos, they trample her with hugs, and say that they've been on quite a big adventure. However, before they explain, they ask where their dad is, and Caroline stops dead at that mention. Kenny then hears what's going on, and quickly interrupts and change the subject and starts cleaning the area, and asks them to tell more about their adventure. So, Caroline invites them all in for lunch, and asks Brock to possibly help out a bit.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} have arrived at the Pokémon Center, and Ash is surprised to see that aside from [[Nurse Joy]] being there, Norman is leaning over the front desk engaged in a deep conversation with her. Of course, while that can be taken suspiciously in many ways, Ash is only psyched about having that battle, so the sight of Norman alone is enough to get him going. Ash quickly runs up to reunite with him, and is excited to prove that he's gotten stronger. He feels even more special that Norman actually remembers him, but then he realizes that's not really a surprise since he's a friend of his children. Norman's impressed with all of Ash's accomplishments, and feels that he can now take Ash on in a proper Gym Battle for once, three on three. Joy then comments about how Norman is a great Gym Leader (and also mentions something under her breath about his good looks). Norman, blushing, thanks her, while Joy happily heals Ash's Pokémon. ''Now'' Ash is starting to come to his senses of suspicion.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, {{TRT}} is hiding out in the nearby jungle, trying to devise a new plan to become popular, since last time didn't work. After much deliberation, {{MTR}} remembers that the [[twerp]]s are going to the Gym for a battle, and perhaps they can use the old hide-underground-and-snag trick…<br /> <br /> Back at their lodge, Max and May are eating and bragging about their journeys, and adventures with Team Rocket. Then they tell them about Ash and he's here to challenge dad once again… and once again, Caroline stops dead in her cooking at that mention. Kenny then quickly walks in and steers them off that subject by asking to tell a bit more about their adventure, and what kinds of Pokémon they captured. May mentions that her best Pokémon now is {{TP|May|Beautifly}}… and Caroline goes even more sour at the mention of Beautifly. Kenny, who can't think of a safe way to explain this situation, quickly stands in the way so they can't see their mom's reaction, while Max brags about how Beautifly got her to win some {{pkmn|Contest}}s. Caroline is now nearly losing her temper, but Kenny can't let them see that, so he tries to console her and calm her down and not be that sensitive. So then, with a tone of sadness in her voice, she tries her best to act happy for them. But the mystery about why Caroline gets so uptight about Beautifly still remains unsolved.<br /> <br /> After lunch, Kenny takes Max, May, and Brock out into the nearby woods where Norman trains to explain the situation. He begins to warn them that this may give them a nasty shock, but before he gets to it, Max jumps in excitement. They turn around, and notice their old friend {{P|Vigoroth}} hanging from a branch. Then they remember exactly the same Vigoroth battling Ash's Pikachu, and know that he'll have to face it again. Max is pretty sure he won't stand a chance as Vigoroth is pretty tough. May then notices him hugging it, and isn't sure if he's supporting Vigoroth or his dad more. Kenny is still waiting patiently for an opportunity to explain the situation but is then interrupted by a {{p|Slakoth}} hanging from that tree as well. May, interested, gets a bit of data on Slakoth from the [[Pokédex]]. They explain to Brock that this is also Norman's, and Ash will have to face it as well. However, it's rather lazy compared to its evolution, Vigoroth. Kenny is now desperate to get to the point, but then Max points to a {{TP|Norman|Slaking}} resting nearby. May grabs some info from the Pokédex again, and Max realizes that since this is Vigoroth's [[evolution]], it must be their dad's best Pokémon. Now, Kenny is getting sick of waiting, so he asks them to kindly listen to him.<br /> <br /> As they crowd around, he whispers that rumor has it that Norman is in [[FireworksShipping|love]] with the local Nurse Joy. Max and May gasp (and Brock too, because he's jealous of Norman). Kenny explains that he's never openly admitted it, but he hasn't been to the house in a long time, and has been acting shady. And one time he accidentally overheard them doing some slight flirting with each other. Max and May are nearly too shocked to ask anything, but Max is still wondering about the Beautifly thing. Kenny explains that when Norman proposed, the most memorable romantic moment was in a field of flowers and Beautifly, so whenever they think of Beautifly, they think of their romance. But now with all this, it's no wonder she wouldn't want to hear about Beautifly, especially since that picture of them there was stored away by Caroline when she started going through this tough time. Just then, Ash finds them in that secret hideout, and then May and co remember that Ash has been to the Center<br /> <br /> Team Rocket is also in the woods, and they notice the gang, and are ready to devise a plan to steal {{p|Pikachu}}. However, {{MTR}} suggests they snag Slakoth, Vigoroth, and {{p|Slaking}} instead, since they would make good presents for the {{an|Giovanni|Boss}}. Vigoroth to wake him up, and Slakoth and Slaking to help him relax after a long day's work. Jessie and James love that idea and decide to go through with it.<br /> <br /> The first thing Ash says when he meets them is that he saw Norman, and he seems to be doing good. He was also talking to Joy about something, but he couldn't exactly tell. Now, it all connects to the rest of them, even more evidence. Once again, they ask Ash if he managed to pick up anything odd in their conversation, involving romance. Then he mentions he saw them both blushing, and that seems to be enough evidence. Then, while they explain to him what they know about what's going on, Brock puts on an act and runs off to the center, and claims he's going to get to the bottom of this. The others aren't so sure, knowing Brock and his antics when it comes to stuff like this, so they decide to follow him in case he does anything stupid. That is, everyone but Ash. He's still somewhat confused, and yells at them to wait up, but Vigoroth falls on him from the tree, surprising him. <br /> <br /> As the rest of them arrive at the Center, they see Norman leaning over the front desk in a deep conversation with Joy, which is enough to make them nervous. Nurse Joy recognizes them and tells Norman that they're there. They all greet him, and pretend they don't know anything, as he asks about their journey. But they're too shocked to talk, but Brock is still a bit blind to what's happening and is a little jealous of Norman. Norman also knows Brock from when he visited that time, but he didn't know about how flirtatious he was. Quickly, Brock runs and starts flirting with Joy as usual, but Kenny gets mad and pulls him away.<br /> <br /> Back in the jungle, Team Rocket arrives at a door, which they think is the Gym. As they go in, they notice a machine, and immediately realizes it isn't. Jessie remembers that the Gym is in the other direction.<br /> <br /> Back at the Center, Brock has finally lost his marbles, and blows up at Norman about how Caroline is worried sick at home about him, and how Joy is meant to be with ''him'' instead of Norman. Kenny then gets extremely aggravated, and pulls Brock away again, dragging him out. Even May is stunned at Brock pulling something like that.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, a very angry Caroline appears in the doorway, and tells him off for what she knows. Everyone is surprised to see her, especially Norman. When she asks for an explanation, he says he's just visiting, and they all fall over. They keep trying to squeeze it out of him, but he openly denies it and stays silent, even when Kenny asks him. He'd never lie to Kenny.<br /> <br /> In the woods, Team Rocket sees Ash and Pikachu sitting with the Slakoth line trio, and jumps out at a perfect opportunity. They say their {{motto}} and attack Ash with {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} and {{TP|James|Cacnea}}.<br /> <br /> Back at the Center, there's a big affair brawl going on. Norman feels bad about what he's done, and says he loves Caroline with all his heart, but it's hard for Caroline to forgive him. The kids are on the side that they should unite as a family once again. As the argument continues, Max breaks out into tears, and goes on about how he misses living with them as a family, and he loves them both deeply, and that his father is like a hero to him, and he doesn't know what he'd do if they were apart. Caroline is actually really touched by Max's words, as is Norman. Now it looks like he's given them something to think about, since they both deeply love their children.<br /> <br /> Seviper attacks Pikachu with {{m|Poison Tail}}, while {{p|Cacnea}} attacks Slakoth with {{m|Pin Missile}}. While they all run with Ash (except Slaking who's still asleep), Seviper fires another Poison Tail, breaking the door to the place down and knocking them all out. Suddenly, to his luck, Norman, Joy, Caroline, Kenny and the kids come to the rescue. Norman is the only one that can control them, and he looks especially angry they attack with Poison Tail and Pin Missile, destroying that machine. With rage, Norman yells in a booming voice for Slaking to wake up. It may be heavily sleeping, but it can hear him. Slaking then charges at them angrily, and fires a {{m|Focus Punch}}, blasting them to oblivion.<br /> <br /> However, Norman is still angry that his machine has been destroyed. That's a real disappointment to everyone else as well, but Joy happens to be able to fix it. Norman gladly thanks Joy, but Caroline looks a bit jealously paranoid again, until Brock comes and starts flirting with Joy, only to be dragged away by Max. When Joy finishes fixing it, they set off the machine, and Beautifly-shaped fireworks are shot into the air. Joy also apologizes about being secretive, but she reveals that Norman knew that she is also a fireworks technician. He wanted to arrange a special gift for Caroline to celebrate their anniversary, the Beautifly fireworks commemorating that day in the flower field with all the Beautifly. Everyone cheers as they hug once again.<br /> <br /> While Norman goes in to get some more drinks, Caroline tells them about their wedding and their honeymoon, and the symbolism of Beautifly to them. Then he comes back, thanks Ash for saving his Pokémon, and tells him that he has convinced him he is a worthy Trainer, and he can have the battle tomorrow. Max, however, still insists that Ash doesn't stand a chance, but Ash is motivated as usual. May seems to have mixed feelings about who will win, and who to root for. It will all be determined tomorrow.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{an|May}} and [[Max]] reunite with their parents.<br /> * {{an|Brock}} meets [[Norman]] and [[Caroline]] for the first time.<br /> * {{Ash}} prepares for his Gym battle with [[Norman]].<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * {{ho|Kenny}}<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Slaking}} ({{OP|Norman|Slaking}})<br /> * {{p|Slakoth}} ([[Norman]]'s)<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * {{an|Giovanni}} ([[Boss fantasy|fantasy]])<br /> * [[Norman]]<br /> * [[Caroline]]<br /> * {{ho|Kenny}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG069.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Togetic}}<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Seviper}} ({{OP|Jessie|Seviper}})<br /> * {{p|Cacnea}} ({{OP|James|Cacnea}})<br /> * {{p|Vigoroth}} ([[Norman]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Slakoth}} ([[Norman]]'s; debut)<br /> * {{p|Slaking}} ({{OP|Norman|Slaking}}; debut)<br /> * {{p|Beautifly}} (flashback)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This episode's English title is the third which is a pun on the name of the television series ''{{wp|Love, American Style}}''.

(Japanese: '''ロケット団！みだれひっかきでサヨウナラ！！''' ''{{tt|Rocket Gang|Team Rocket}}! A Fury Swipes Goodbye!!'') is the sixth episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}} and the 280th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on December 26, 2002 and in the United States on November 29, 2003. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/06_18-a-poached-ego/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Our heroes are headed for Rustboro City, where Ash hopes to have his first real gym battle in Hoenn. Team Rocket is making their way along the same path when they stumble upon a cage full of Ekans. Jessie is delighted that their work has been done for them and orders Arbok to attack. Arbok can't manage to attack the helpless Ekans, however, because it remembers when it used to be an Ekans. Jessie is sympathetic. James soon makes a similar concession when they find a cage of Koffing that Weezing will not hurt. The cages belong to a poacher named Rico who uses his Fearrow and Pupitar to chase off Team Rocket. Team Rocket returns to the scene, now hoping to free the Ekans and Koffing. Things turn dangerous when Rico's Pupitar evolves into a Tyrannitar, and Team Rocket is forced to make the ultimate sacrifice for the Pokémon that they love.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> This episode starts with {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} moving towards [[Rustboro City]]. But {{an|May}}, wanting another break, slows down, causing everyone to stop for a break. However, when she leans back into a tree, she discovers that the tree bark has been torn in many places. Speculating as to what is going on, [[Max]] suggests that a Pokémon battle has taken place. Ash seems to agree, but later discovers part of a net embedded into one of the trees. Meanwhile, Max discovers that a [[Pokémon Center]] is nearby, and {{an|Brock}} proceeds to lead everyone else there.<br /> <br /> When they arrive at the Pokémon Center, they meet [[Nurse Joy]]. Before Brock can make his move on her, May, believing that it is the same Nurse Joy from [[Oldale Town]], tries to greet her, but is surprised when Nurse Joy doesn't recognize her. As Max tries to tell her that Pokémon Centers are run by a family of (nearly) identical-looking Nurse Joys, [[Officer Jenny]] and her {{p|Growlithe}} appear to ask whether Pokémon had recently been admitted to the Pokémon Center, due to the activities of a poacher, named [[Rico]], who is nearby. As Max also explains to May that Officer Jennys are also (more or less) identical, Ash presents Officer Jenny with the part of the net that they had found. Officer Jenny, with a lead on Rico, then asks Ash and his friends to lead her to where they had found it. Ash and his friends agree so everyone quickly leaves the Pokémon Center.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, {{TRT}} is on a hill overlooking the Pokémon Center. As they plan to trap Ash and his friends when they return (using their &quot;patented pitfall trap&quot;), {{MTR}} slips and rolls down a hill. At the bottom, he finds a tarp covering a large object, and uncovers that it is a cage full of {{p|Ekans}}. Learning that the Ekans had been caught and abused by a Pokémon poacher, Meowth tries to free them, but finds that their cages are electrified. At this point, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] (riding {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}}) arrive. Outraged at how the Ekans are confined, Jessie orders Arbok to use {{m|Acid}} to free the Ekans, but Arbok is reluctant to attack since it was once an Ekans before evolution and that they are the pre-evolution of it. After being reassured that the Ekans will not be harmed, Arbok once again begins its attack but the cage is inaffective. Weezing tries to use {{m|Sludge}} to help. However, before Weezing can do that, it got attacked by a {{p|Fearow}}.<br /> <br /> The Fearow's Trainer then arrives in a {{wp|Sport utility vehicle|SUV}}. Introducing himself as [[Rico]], a Pokémon poacher, he explains that the Ekans are his. Per his client's request, he is to poach {{type|Poison}} Pokémon, which also includes a cage full of {{p|Koffing}} that are in a cage attached to the back of his SUV, with a bonus for every evolved one he can get. He then says he will allow them to leave unharmed - if they leave Arbok and Weezing with him. Having gone through so much with Arbok and Weezing (James claiming that the two are like brothers), and motivated by the Ekans and the Koffing, they refuse, and Arbok and Weezing prepare to defend themselves as Rico orders Fearow to attack. Fearow easily dodges Arbok's {{m|Poison Sting}} and Weezing's Sludge, and lands a {{m|Fury Attack}} on both. When Fearow tries to finish off Arbok with a {{m|Drill Peck}}, however, Arbok catches its beak with a {{m|Wrap}}. Just then, Rico withdraws Fearow for a {{p|Pupitar}}, who proceeds to use {{m|Sandstorm}} to send Team Rocket flying away. Claiming that Arbok and Weezing are too weak for his efforts, Rico leaves to poach more Pokémon.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Ash and his friends arrive back at where they found the net. Max discovers tire tracks, and Brock surmises that Rico must not have gotten too far. Ash then sends out {{AP|Taillow}} to search from the sky. Elsewhere, Team Rocket makes a hard landing, and Jessie is particularly incensed at Rico, and vows to free the Ekans and Koffing at any cost. James, who is also incensed, agrees to use a classic Team Rocket &quot;sting operation&quot;. As if on cue, a swarm of {{p|Kakuna}} and {{p|Beedrill}} appear, causing Team Rocket to run for cover. Ahead of them is a {{TP|James|Cacnea}}, who brushes the Beedrill off with a {{m|Pin Missile}}. After thanking the Cacnea with a bag of treats, Jessie and James are resigned to the fact that Rico may have been long gone. However, Arbok, with its body to the ground, could still sense that Rico is near. Saying their goodbye to Cacnea, they run off to get their revenge.<br /> <br /> In the meantime, Taillow has located Rico in his SUV, and returns to Ash with the results. Rico is still driving along when Arbok appears from the ground. Before he can take his poaching gun out to subdue Arbok, a layer of smoke appears, caused by Weezing. Using Fearow to blow the smoke away, he discovers that Meowth had used the {{m|SmokeScreen}} to sneak in and pick the locks off the cages (claiming that years of being attacked by Pikachu had allowed him to withstand the electrified cage). When Fearow tries to attack Meowth, Arbok responds by using {{m|Headbutt}} to send Fearow into the cage, knocking it out. Meowth then manages to open the cages and frees the Ekans and Koffing, just as Arbok and Weezing use their attacks to knock the poaching gun out of Rico's hands.<br /> <br /> Angered, Rico sends out Pupitar, who promptly evolves to a {{p|Tyranitar}}. Before Team Rocket can make an attack, however, Tyranitar attacks with its own {{m|Hyper Beam}}. With no way to stop Tyranitar, Jessie has an idea, and sends out {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} in an attempt to {{m|Counter}} Tyranitar's Hyper Beam. However, Tyranitar quickly knocks out Wobbuffet before it can set up an attack. The explosion from the Hyper Beam does not go unnoticed by Ash and his friends, who quickly rush to the scene.<br /> <br /> With no other choice (having been boxed in by multiple Hyper Beams), Jessie and James order Arbok and Weezing to leave with the Ekans and Koffing, while they themselves buy some time to allow them to escape. Though reluctant at first, Arbok and Weezing do so. Rico, trying to prevent their escape, tries to use another Hyper Beam to cut them off, but Meowth quickly attacks with a {{m|Fury Swipes}} to his face, which briefly interrupts the attack before he eats the Hyper Beam himself. Jessie and James also use their &quot;Fury Swipes&quot; to stall for time, although they get battered in the process. Arbok and Weezing watch in horror as they witness Team Rocket being beaten up, and with tears in their eyes they leave with the Ekans and Koffing. Eventually, however, Tyranitar prevails over the Team Rocket trio, and Rico simply brushes them aside to look for the escaped Poison Pokémon.<br /> <br /> Before Rico can make any headway, however, he encounters Ash and his friends, as Officer Jenny tries to arrest him. Rico quickly sends out Fearow to resist the arrest, however, Fearow is quickly knocked out by Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Officer Jenny also orders Growlithe to knock the gun and Tyranitar's Poké Ball from Rico's hands. With Rico unable to evade arrest, Officer Jenny orders him to let go of the Pokémon he has poached, only for him to tell her that the Pokémon he had poached had escaped, thanks to &quot;a bunch of [[Team Rocket trio|fools]]&quot;. Ash remarks how, with bad guys like Team Rocket around, there are still good guys in the world.<br /> <br /> Later, Jessie and James are seen walking through the forest, wondering if Arbok and Weezing have managed to evade Rico. Although Meowth claims that years of battling Ash's Pokémon had hardened them against any threat, they are still uneasy. Just then, the wild Cacnea who had helped them out earlier reappears, carrying the same unopened bag of cookies. When James asks if the Cacnea would like to come with them (as he is opening the bag for Cacnea), Cacnea happily obliges, poking James as it hugs him. Though they have lost Arbok and Weezing, at least Team Rocket had (literally) caught themselves a new Pokémon.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{an|May}} learns that there are multiple identical [[Nurse Joy]]s and [[Officer Jenny]]s in different cities.<br /> * [[Jessie]] and [[James]] release {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}}.<br /> * James catches a {{TP|James|Cacnea}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Cacnea}} ({{OP|James|Cacnea}})<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Officer Jenny]]<br /> * [[Rico]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP AG006.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Larvitar}}<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Taillow}} ({{OP|Ash|Swellow}})<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}}; released)<br /> * {{p|Weezing}} ({{OP|James|Weezing}}; released)<br /> * {{p|Cacnea}} ({{OP|James|Cacnea}}; new; debut)<br /> * {{p|Growlithe}} ({{OP|Officer Jenny|Growlithe}})<br /> * {{p|Fearow}} ([[Rico]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Pupitar}} ([[Rico]]'s; evolves)<br /> * {{p|Tyranitar}} ([[Rico]]'s; newly evolved)<br /> * {{p|Kakuna}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Beedrill}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Ekans}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Koffing}} (multiple)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The gun Rico used is an {{wp|FN P90}}.<br /> * Music from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' is used while Team Rocket is fighting Rico.<br /> * Music from ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' is used while Team Rocket releases Arbok and Weezing and fights Rico's Tyranitar by themselves.<br /> * The English episode title is a pun on &quot;{{wp|poached egg}}&quot;.<br /> * Weezing appears to have a different voice than usual in this episode.<br /> * As of this episode, all of the Kanto Pokémon that belonged to Jessie and James are no longer part of their team.

Protect the Gigantic Tree!!'') is the seventh episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}} and the 281st episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on January 9, 2003 and in the United States on November 29, 2003. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/06_19-trees-a-crowd/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Deep in the woods, Ash spies a Treecko. He's wanted to catch a Treecko since he first saw one at Professor Birch's laboratory. He follows the Treecko to an enormous tree that seems to be dying. There, Ash's Treecko has an argument with all of the other Treecko. It seems that Ash's Treecko is very attached to the tree and wants to stay with it, while the rest of the clan wants to move on to a new tree. Ash watches as the lone Treecko struggles to save the tree. He and Pikachu feel badly for the Treecko and try to help. In the end, however, the tree dies and falls. Now that its home is gone, Treecko is ready to make a new home with Ash. He and Pikachu battle, and Ash catches his Treecko!&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are on their way to [[Rustboro City]] and are now lost. After a fight between {{an|May}} and [[Max]], Ash sees a bunch of {{p|Treecko}} running through the trees. He says that he had wanted one since he first saw one at [[Professor Birch]]'s lab. He quickly tosses a [[Poké Ball]], but the Treecko bats it away with its tail, and May sarcastically reminds Ash that you have to battle the Pokémon first. Their talk is cut short when {{an|Brock}} notices that the Treecko are running away. Ash chases after them and the others follow. Ash sees what looks like a huge, odd tree up ahead. Unfortunately, he doesn't pay attention to where he's going and falls face first down a steep hill. When he looks up, he sees that the tree is right in front of him, and it's massive! It's more than twice as tall as any other tree in the forest, very thick, and, as Ash comments, almost magical-looking. It also doesn't have any leaves and looks somewhat dead. Suddenly a sharp twig lands in the ground right in front of Ash's face. He looks up and sees an angry-looking Treecko sitting on a branch with another twig in its hand. Ash challenges it to a battle, and it leaps from branch to branch, then jumps through the air and spits its twig at {{AP|Pikachu}}. Pikachu dodges, and Treecko lands next to him and smacks him with its tail. Treecko taunts Pikachu, then when he tries to attack, dodges and hits Pikachu with its tail again. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} is watching the whole thing and they're impressed with Treecko's performance. They have a [[boss fantasy]] about Treecko giving {{an|Giovanni}} a massage, and decide to catch it, but then they notice that there are now a lot of Treecko surrounding Ash and Pikachu. An old Treecko tries to talk to the one that Ash battled, but is only yelled at and smacked. The other Treecko look pretty mad, but the old Treecko tells them not to attack. [[Jessie]] is excited because she loves watching other people's troubles, and asks Meowth for a translation. The old Treecko says that the tree is going to die and all the Treecko need to move to another tree, but the other Treecko answers that it was born on that tree and isn't going to give up on it, no matter what. This really moves [[James]] and Meowth, but Jessie doesn't think it's very heroic at all, since life is full of change. She explains all about this, until they notice that all the Treecko are leaving except for one. Once the others are out of sight, that Treecko runs off too. Ash is prepared to follow it, but Pikachu has a better idea, so they stake out in the tree.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Brock, May, and Max are eating. Max is worried about Ash, but Brock tells him that Ash will be fine, and they agree to go look for him after they're done eating. As the sun sets, Ash and Pikachu are still in the tree. Ash decides to send {{AP|Taillow}} to look for his friends, since he's afraid they might be worried about him. As soon as Taillow flies away, Treecko appears carrying a leaf full of water. It carefully waters the tree, then goes off to get more water, as Ash wonders whether it's too late to save the tree. As darkness falls, he and Pikachu start to help the Treecko water the tree. It's angry at first, but it warms up to them when it realizes they just want to help. Suddenly, they hear a commotion and discover that Team Rocket is using a bulldozer to ram all the trees, knocking the sleeping Treecko into their net. When they spot Ash, Pikachu, and Treecko, Team Rocket charges them, sending them flying. After their motto, they take off in their balloon, now covered in neon lights, with all the Treecko in a cage. Ash orders Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but it turns out that the lights were actually electricity blockers. Ash calls for Taillow, but then remembers that he sent it away to find the others. Team Rocket takes the opportunity to grab Pikachu in a net. But the Treecko that Ash befriended wasn't caught in the net, and now it's angry. It spits its twig at the balloon, but it just bounces off. Team Rocket laughs, and James sends out his [[James's Cacnea|Cacnea]]. Treecko leaps from the top of a tree into the balloon, and starts attacking Team Rocket. Jessie accidentally hits the button that releases the Treecko. Then Treecko leaps onto the balloon itself and taunts Cacnea. Cacnea angrily sends a {{m|Pin Missile}} Treecko's way, but Treecko dodges and the attack punctures the balloon. The Treecko free Pikachu and they all abandon ship as the balloon zooms off into the distance, sending Team Rocket blasting off again.<br /> <br /> The Treecko that Ash befriended makes up with the old one, but still doesn't want to give up on the tree. Everything seems to be going well until the giant tree splits in two! The Treecko try to hold it together and Ash gets a [[Escape Rope|rope]] out of his [[bag|backpack]], but they are stopped when the sun rises, illuminating the tree beautifully. As they look on, Ash and the Treecko have some sort of vision of the tree's life from a seed to the majestic tree it used to be. But the vision fades and they're only looking at a split, dead tree again, and it suddenly splits even more and falls over completely. A seed rolls from the wreckage and stops at Treecko's feet. Ash takes this as a sign of gratitude from the tree for trying so hard to save it. But Treecko doesn't take kindly to this suggestion and hits Ash. He realizes that Treecko is trying to tell him it's ready to battle. Just then, Brock, May, Max, and Taillow show up.<br /> <br /> Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}, which Treecko dodges multiple times, but finally scores a hit. However, Treecko doesn't seem to have taken much damage, and Max reminds them that {{t|Electric}} attacks aren't very effective on {{t|Grass}}-type Pokémon. Pikachu uses {{m|Quick Attack}}, which Treecko dodges, but that leaves it vulnerable to a Thunderbolt. Thunderbolt does a lot of damage and knocks Treecko out. Max doesn't understand what happened, but Brock explains that usually Electric attacks don't work well because the Pokémon can diffuse the electricity into the ground. Since Treecko was hit in the air, there was nowhere for the electricity to go. Ash throws a [[Poké Ball]] and catches {{AP|Treecko}}. Ash lets it out of its Poké Ball, and the old Treecko gives it the seed from the dead tree. Treecko plants it, then leaves with Ash and friends as the other Treecko care for the newly sprouted tree.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> *{{Ash}} catches a {{AP|Treecko}}.<br /> <br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * [[Ash's Treecko]]<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * {{an|Giovanni}} ([[Boss fantasy|fantasy]])<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP AG007.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Girafarig}}<br /> *{{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> *{{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> *{{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> *{{p|Taillow}} ({{OP|Ash|Taillow}})<br /> *{{p|Treecko}} ({{OP|Ash|Treecko}}, new)<br /> *{{p|Cacnea}} ({{OP|James|Cacnea}})<br /> *{{p|Murkrow}}<br /> *{{p|Treecko}} (multiple)<br /> {{right clear}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> *The title of this episode is based on the phrase &quot;two's company, three's a crowd.&quot; It could also be based on a television show {{wp|Three's A Crowd|of the same name}}.<br /> *Although May claimed that Treecko are &quot;creepy&quot; six episodes earlier in Professor Birch's laboratory, she states in this episode that they are &quot;cute.&quot;<br /> *Brock explains that {{type|Grass}} Pokémon resist {{type|Electric}} attacks because they diffuse the electricity into trees or the ground.

It was first broadcast in Japan on September 13, 2001 and in the United States on October 19, 2002<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_06-octillery-the-outcast/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;After reaching the town where the preliminary round of the Whirl Cup is held, Ash and Misty enter and earn the two victories required to continue on to the finals. A friend they had met earlier is not as fortunate. When Misty tries to console him with promises of the next Whirl Cup to be held in three years, he remains depressed, saying that it was not lack of ability but the low spirits of his Octillery that had brought about his defeat. The Pokémon had been depressed ever since it evolved from a Remoraid and was subsequently spurned by its onetime Remoraid friends. If the boy cannot somehow mend these friendships between Pokémon that have now grown different in appearance, he doesn't see any hopes of victory even in three years time. Ash and friends willingly lend their knowledge and enthusiasm to this problem of Pokémon sociology.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} have finally reached the main island where the [[Whirl Cup]] will be held. Ash and {{an|Misty}} go on with their talking about their dreams and such when finally they head over to the [[Pokémon Center]] for some info. Obviously it seems like they're not the only ones who want to enter. They wait in a long line for while and finally they get to the front desk. {{an|Brock}} goes off with flirting with [[Nurse Joy]] when Misty finally puts him out of the picture for a while. Ash and Misty register and it looks like there's going to be a qualifying match before the tournament. She shows a picture of the tournament tree, only sixteen entries available. {{TRT}} spies from the outside of the Center and comes up with another plan. They want to swipe any good {{t|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and give it to {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}}, but {{MTR}} wants a &quot;Theme Park.&quot;<br /> <br /> While the group walks around town, they notice a boy walking around all down in the dumps. Misty goes up and asks him if he's alright. The boy replies only asking if any of them are in the tournament, which Misty says yes. Immediately the boy introduces himself as [[Marcellus]] and asks if any of them would {{pkmn|battle}}, or {{pkmn|training|train}} for a while. Misty accepts and they head off to a battle site. The site is covered in water, only having two stones as {{pkmn|Trainer}} boxes plus four pillars. Marcellus says that this is supposed to simulate what the real arena looks like. Both get ready, Marcellus sends out {{p|Remoraid}} and Misty calls upon {{TP|Misty|Corsola}}. Marcellus commands Remoraid to use {{m|Water Gun}}, which Corsola counters with {{m|Mirror Coat}}, knocking back the Remoraid but not [[fainting|knocking it out]]. Corsola goes for a {{m|Tackle}} but Remoraid dives underneath and Corsola hits one of the pillars. It seems like Remoraid is nowhere to be seen but soon it is spotted on a wave. Marcellus tells Remoraid to use another Water Gun and this time it knocks Corsola out. Remoraid then [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Octillery}}. Marcellus thanks them and heads off. It's late night back at the Pokémon Center and Ash and Misty have a big day tomorrow. Ash asks {{AP|Pikachu}} to be his support while Misty asks {{an|Brock}} to keep {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} company while battling.<br /> <br /> The next day, the matches are quick to end. On Ash's side, it was {{AP|Totodile}} vs. {{p|Seel}} followed by Totodile vs. {{p|Shellder}}, while Misty's was Corsola vs. {{p|Seaking}} and {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} vs. {{p|Magikarp}}. After their matches, the three join up at the Pokémon Center where they see Marcellus again, but this time he seems down. Ash asks if he didn't make it, but Misty shoves him off and asks what's up. Marcellus explains that there's something going on with his Octillery lately. They go over to his house where they go in a room full of Remoraid in an aquarium. Marcellus releases his Octillery and it goes inside the tank, towards the school of Remoraid. The Remoraid, however shift to the opposite direction of Octillery. Octillery follows but again they shift to the other side. This continues until the Remoraid finally shoots out Water Gun at Octillery, which it goes in jar. They now understand the situation. After a few ideas, they dress up Ash in an Octillery costume, much to Ash's chagrin. Ash tries to lure out the Octillery but instead gets shot at. Maybe there's another way... but they put that on hold for now.<br /> <br /> During the night, Team Rocket slips in and commences their plan, get the Remoraid since it seems to be the easiest to steal. The group and Marcellus are about to start dinner when they hear a funny noise. Marcellus says he'll check it out. When he gets there, he flips on the light switch and sees Team Rocket. Immediately they go off with their {{motto}}, Marcellus not getting the idea until he sees the tanks are empty. Ash comes in and sees Team Rocket, however they make their escape in a truck and drives off. Looks like they can't catch up, but they notice puddles on the ground. Looks like Octillery left a trail.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket stops at the port where a boat is already waiting. Meowth goes and operates the crane while [[James]] opens up the back. While Meowth is operating, Octillery comes up unnoticed and starts smothering Meowth. [[Jessie]] and James pull off Octillery but soon it goes in a mad rage tackling Team Rocket to the ground. Soon Octillery bashes the aquarium until it cracks open, releasing all the Remoraid into the ocean water. Now the group has caught up, but Team Rocket isn't giving up. Meowth tries to grab Octillery with the crane, making a few unsuccessful moves but finally getting it. Ash is about to have Pikachu use {{m|Thunderbolt}} but Meowth laughs saying &quot;Do that and Octillery here is toast&quot;. With no other option, the Remoraid all fire at the crane, causing Octillery to go flying. But the Remoraid save it with Water Gun, sending it back onto the port. Pikachu then releases Thunderbolt followed by Octillery shooting an {{m|Octazooka}}, blowing Team Rocket sky high. After the battle, the Remoraid soon evolve into Octillery themselves and it looks like Marcellus's Octillery won't be lonely.<br /> <br /> The next day, the finalist Trainers await at a cliff to watch the Whirl Cup Stadium, partially flooded, rise.

Watermelon Field's {{tt|Seed Machine Gun|Bullet Seed}}!'') is the 41st episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 315th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on September 4, 2003 and in the United States on September 11, 2004.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_01-what-you-seed-is-what-you-get/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash and friends are leaving Mauville City, but Ash wants to go to the Pokémon Gym in Lavaridge Town while May wants to compete in a Pokémon Contest at Fallarbor Town. Max discovers the two towns are close to each other, so they decide on Fallarbor Town first.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket stumbles into a huge watermelon patch but an Electrode disguised as a giant watermelon sends them blasting away. Some watermelons float downriver to be eaten by Ash and the gang. A Grovyle and Slugma attack them, and a girl named Natasha accuses them of being thieves. Her Electrode reveals the truth, so she invites them on a tour of her watermelon patch. After Natasha claims she's never lost a double battle, Ash challenges her.<br /> <br /> Ash sends out his Treecko and Corphish to challenge Natasha's Pokémon, but they are quickly overmatched. Corphish and Slugma KO each other, leaving Treecko and Grovyle to duke it out. The battle is interrupted by Team Rocket returning to steal more watermelons. <br /> <br /> Grovyle uses its Bullet Seed, but is gagged by an attack from Team Rocket's robot. Treecko uses Bullet Seed and manages to knock the melons down, and Pikachu zaps the robot, sending Team Rocket blasting off again.<br /> <br /> Natasha and Ash resume the match, but Treecko is defeated by the power of Grovyle's Bullet Seed attack. The kids settle down to enjoy some juicy watermelon, and Ash and Pikachu try to encourage Treecko by spitting seeds at it. Treecko retaliates by using the real Bullet Seed move on them.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> The episode starts with {{Ash}} exiting the [[Pokémon Center]] and {{ashfr}} soon following after him. [[Max]] asks the name of the next town they are going to. {{an|May}} answers [[Fallarbor Town]], knowing that a [[Pokémon Contest]] is scheduled to take place there soon, but Max consults his [[PokéNav]] and says the next [[Gym]] is in [[Lavaridge Town]]. May and Ash momentarily argue on the next destination before Max, by means of checking a map on the PokéNav, comes to the conclusion that the two towns are close to each other. Thus, Max explains they could do both. {{an|Brock}} elaborates with the order, being Fallarbor Town, then Lavaridge.<br /> <br /> {{TRT}}, while hungrily wandering, happens to find a field of watermelons and start to eat the watermelons, picking one each. {{MTR}} then notices what appears to be an unusually large watermelon before coming to the discovery that it is actually an {{p|Electrode}}. The watermelon-painted Electrode attacks Team Rocket with {{m|Rollout}}, causing them to be blasted into the sky, and the three watermelons they were holding fall down below and are carried down the river. <br /> <br /> Down the river, Ash and company have just eaten Brock's lunch. Max notices something floating down the river, and Brock comes to the conclusion that they are watermelons. Brock procures one of the watermelons from the river and experimentally taps it before affirming that it is &quot;ripe and sweet and juicy inside&quot;. Ash takes the watermelon from Brock and commands Pikachu to use {{m|Iron Tail}} to slice it open. May differs, handing it back to Brock for him to slice it, much to Ash and Pikachu's annoyance. The company then eats the watermelons, praising its sweetness.<br /> <br /> Ash spits out the seeds when eating his watermelon and May proceeds to criticize his manners. May's reprimanding reminds him of the concept of seed-spitting, and he promptly brings out {{AP|Treecko}} from his [[Poké Ball]]. Ash asks Treecko to try the watermelon, in order to practice {{m|Bullet Seed}} with the watermelon's seeds. May comes over to Ash and asks about Bullet Seed, and Ash mentions how powerful {{p|Shiftry}}'s Bullet Seed [[AG037|was]]. Ash demonstrates how to spit the seeds of the watermelon several times. Eventually, a small glowing ball of energy forms in Treecko's throat, but before Treecko can unleash it as Bullet Seed they are all attacked by a real Bullet Seed.<br /> <br /> A {{p|Grovyle}}, the Pokémon who attacked them with the Bullet Seed, appears. Ash brings out his [[Pokédex]] to check information upon it. A {{p|Slugma}} appears at Grovyle's side, and May checks the Pokédex entry for it in turn. Again Grovyle attacks the group with Bullet Seed, and the group attempts to escape. However Slugma uses Ember upon them, and Ash deduces that they do not intend him and his companions to be going anywhere, and Brock questions why &quot;they would just attack us out of the blue like that.&quot; A girl's voice is heard, commanding the two attacking Pokémon to stop.<br /> <br /> A green-haired girl approaches them and accuses them of being watermelon thieves. May and Ash both attempt to explain their situation, but the green-haired girl points to the supposed &quot;evidence&quot;, the slices of watermelon on a plate. Spontaneously, the girl bites into one and spits out some seeds in their direction. Passionately, the girl raves on how a watermelon &quot;so sweet, so juicy, so perfectly red and ripe&quot; could only have been grown by [[Natasha]], the &quot;Melon Master&quot;. Brock, Ash and May attempt to explain the situation, in which they were unaware the watermelons belonged to anyone. The girl is still accusatory and demands they confess. Again, Ash attempts to explain when the watermelon-painted Electrode appears. May is frightened at what seems to be a giant watermelon rolling around on it own, but Max corrects her and states that it is an Electrode. The green-haired girl points at them, stating that they must be the watermelon thieves that Electrode encountered before. Electrode shakes his head and, realizing her mistake, the green-haired girl is apologetic. <br /> <br /> The group forgives her when suddenly she asks how they were. Noting their confusion, she clarifies on her subject being her watermelons on whether they were &quot;the best.&quot; The group amiably affirms this statement, and the girl decides to make it up to them by giving them a tour of her watermelon patch. <br /> <br /> The green-haired girl introduces herself as Natasha and the others introduce themselves as well. Natasha leads the others to her field and Natasha tells her Electrode to keep watch for the watermelon fields, and Electrode rolls away. Ash comments that Grovyle's Bullet Seed attack was really good and Max compliments Slugma's Ember as well. Natasha thanks their praise, and adds that the three of them have not lost a Double Battle yet. Ash states that he is skilled also, and made it to the best eight in the Johto League. On this, Natasha challenges Ash to a double-battle match with her Grovyle and Slugma, and Ash eagerly accepts.<br /> <br /> Brock is the referee, and states that the match will begin when both Trainers give the okay. Ash and Natasha both say such, and the battle commences. Ash sends out Treecko and {{AP|Corphish}}. May, on the sidelines, asks why Ash would send out Treecko against Grovyle, its own evolved form. Brock deduces that this decision is for Treecko to gain some advanced training. Ash commands Treecko to use {{m|Pound}} against Grovyle, and Corphish to use {{m|BubbleBeam}} on Slugma. Natasha tells Grovyle to dodge and fire a Bullet Seed at the BubbleBeam. Grovyle does so and neutralizes the BubbleBeam. Max comments that Natasha is doing this to protect Slugma, since Slugma is so vulnerable to Water-type attacks.<br /> <br /> Natasha commands Grovyle to fire Bullet Seed on Treecko, and Slugma to use {{m|Ember}} on Corphish. Ash counters this by commanding Corphish to use {{m|Harden}} and Treecko to hide behind Corphish. Natasha momentarily compliments Ash's strategy, and Ash commands that Treecko use {{m|Quick Attack}} on Grovyle and Corphish to hit Slugma with {{m|Crabhammer}}. Natasha counters this by telling Grovyle to dodge and use {{m|Leaf Blade}} on Corphish. Grovyle successfully hits Corphish with Leaf Blade in what seems to be a highly effective strike. Shortly after this attack, Natasha commands Grovyle to use Bullet Seed and for Slugma to use {{m|Flamethrower}}. Equally quickly, Ash counters by commanding Corphish to use Harden and Treecko to be shielded behind Corphish again.<br /> <br /> Ash tells Corphish to hang on, as the attack appears to be quite strong on Corphish. After the attack, Corphish appears to be exhausted and breathes heavily. Concerned, Max states that Ash should do something different, for Corphish is taking too much damage from the attacks. May further comments that Natasha's Pokémon are not taking any damage at all. Concerned, Ash asks if Corphish can still battle. Although tired, Corphish affirms this, and Ash reconsiders Natasha's strength, seeing why she never lost at double battling. <br /> <br /> Team Rocket appears at the watermelon field again alongside Electrode. Meowth has a [[Boss fantasy|fantasy]] involving the usefulness of the watermelon to {{an|Giovanni|the boss}}. Electrode watches their reaction to the fantasy, apparently embarrassed.<br /> <br /> Ash commands Treecko to use Harden and Corphish to use BubbleBeam. Natasha commands Grovyle to dodge the attack and use Leaf Blade on Corphish. Natasha then tells Slugma to use {{m|Body Slam}} and for Grovyle to use Bullet Seed. By this command, Grovyle and Slugma rush forward to attack, and again Ash tells Corphish to use Harden and Treecko to be shielded behind Slugma. Slugma jumps into the air and covers Corphish, negating Treecko's effective protection. With this protection negated, Grovyle leaps into the air and fires Bullet Seed at Treecko. The attack hits, and Treecko is thrown back from the force. Ash asks Treecko if he can still keep going, and, with some exhaustion, Treecko manages to stand. Equally exhausted, Corphish also struggles to stand. Max and May comment with awe on how strong the two of Natasha's Pokémon are, and Ash exclaims to Natasha that he shall show a combination of his own. Ash commands Treecko to grab a hold of Corphish's right claw, and after Treecko grabs onto the claw, he commands Corphish to use Crabhammer on Slugma. Corphish launches Treecko from the claw, and Ash commands that Treecko follow it with Quick Attack. Treecko slams into Grovyle, and Corphish hits Slugma with Crabhammer. <br /> <br /> Natasha commands Grovyle to use {{m|SolarBeam}}. Ash commands Treecko and Corphish to perform the shield maneuver again, and Grovyle launches SolarBeam. Corphish braces against it, although more exhausted than before. Natasha commands Slugma to use Flamethrower, and Ash commands that Corphish use BubbleBeam. With a small amount of steam momentarily resulting in the air upon collision of the attacks, both move past each other and hit their intended targets. Slugma and Corphish faint from the attacks, and Brock declares that they are unable to battle. Natasha and Ash recall their fainted Pokémon into their Poké Balls when Electrode comes over to Natasha. Natasha asks Electrode, &quot;what is it?&quot;, and Electrode tells her. Natasha informs the group that it is the watermelon thieves again and exclaims that she will be back. Ash asks Natasha to wait before telling his companions to follow her.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket is in the field, inside a watermelon-picking {{p|Cacnea}}-shaped [[Team Rocket's mechas|mecha]] with a basket tied to its back. Natasha, frightened, yells, &quot;What are they doing?&quot; The mecha then confronts the group, Jessie and James on the top beginning the motto. After the motto, the group verbally accuses Team Rocket and they banter momentarily. James pulls a lever inside the Cacnea mecha and the mecha grabs several watermelons and appears to consume it before launching an array of watermelon seeds at the group. Natasha commands Grovyle to use Bullet Seed at them, and Ash tells Treecko that he can learn Bullet Seed by watching Grovyle. Grovyle then launches Bullet Seed at Team Rocket, hitting the mecha.<br /> <br /> Meowth pulls a lever, and the Cacnea mecha pulls out a bazooka and fires an X-shaped tape at Grovyle's mouth, preventing it from using Bullet Seed. With this occurrence, Ash commands Treecko to use Bullet Seed. At first, Treecko does not succeed, but at Ash's further encouragement Treecko's second try hits the rope of the mecha's watermelon basket, causing the watermelons to fall. Natasha yells for everyone to catch the melons, and the group scurries about in their attempt to do so and manages to catch them. Ash commands Pikachu to use Thunderbolt on Team Rocket, and Pikachu does so to blast Team Rocket off via the destruction of the mecha. <br /> <br /> Returning to the battle, Ash commands Treecko to use Bullet Seed. Treecko attempts to perform Bullet Seed again but fails. Natasha commands Grovyle to use Leaf Blade, which Treecko dodges. Ash commands Treecko to use Pound, and Treecko's attack is successful. Natasha commands Grovyle to use Bullet Seed, and Ash counters by telling Treecko to use Quick attack to dodge it. Grovyle is knocked back from the hit. Natasha asks Grovyle to get up, and with a struggle Grovyle does so. Treecko is panting heavily, and Ash notes that Treecko is almost out of energy. Natasha notes that Grovyle does not have enough energy for SolarBeam, thus instead commanding Grovyle to finish with Bullet Seed. Ash retaliates, commanding Treecko to use Bullet Seed also. The Bullet Seeds collide with each other in the air, but suddenly Treecko's Bullet Seed is depleted and Grovyle's Bullet Seed overwhelms Treecko. Brock declares that Treecko is unable to battle, and that Natasha wins.<br /> <br /> After the battle, Natasha gives watermelons to the others. Natasha asks how the watermelons are, and the group replies to her, affirming its pleasant quality. After Brock's compliment, Ash notices Treecko, who is sitting away from the others. Ash approaches Treecko and tells it not to feel bad, and that it will get Bullet Seed down before Treecko knows it. Ash and Pikachu attempt to cheer Treecko by spraying seeds at the back of Treecko's head. Treecko, irritated, retaliates by firing a real Bullet Seed attack at them, and the two are knocked backward. Brock comments that all Treecko needed was the right motivation, and Ash, offended, questions why Treecko was motivated to attack him. May responds that what Treecko learned was important, not what the target was. Ash replies, &quot;When the target is your head, it is important.&quot; and Treecko turns away, satisfied.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} leave [[Mauville City]] and decide to head to [[Fallarbor Town]] first, and then to [[Lavaridge Town]].<br /> * [[Ash's Treecko]] learns {{m|Bullet Seed}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Grovyle}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * {{an|Giovanni}} ([[Boss fantasy|fantasy]])<br /> * [[Natasha]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer’s Choice]]: {{p|Taillow}}<br /> [[File:PTC AG041.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon's Trainer Choice]]<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Treecko}} ({{OP|Ash|Treecko}})<br /> * {{p|Corphish}} ({{OP|Ash|Corphish}})<br /> * {{p|Electrode}} ([[Natasha]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Grovyle}} ([[Natasha]]'s; debut)<br /> * {{p|Slugma}} ([[Natasha]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Shiftry}} (flashback)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This is the first episode of the seventh season, ''[[S07|Pokémon: Advanced Challenge]]''.<br /> * This is the first episode to feature the [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]] segment, which replaced ''[[Who's That Pokémon?]]''.<br /> * The English dub title is based on the phrase &quot;What you see is what you get.&quot;<br /> * This episode is featured on ''Volume 12: Treecko'' from [[Viz Media]]'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 1}} series.<br /> * This episode aired in the United States exactly three years after the 9/11 attacks.<br /> ===Errors===<br /> * Natasha's {{p|Electrode}} changes size throughout its encounters with {{TRT}}.<br /> * Electrode is first said to be a watermelon rolling around on its own, but it was actually bouncing.<br /> * While battling [[Natasha]], Ash tells Treecko to use {{m|Harden}} (one of Corphish's attacks) instead of {{m|Pound}}, the actual move it uses.<br /> * Each time Slugma is told to use {{m|Ember}}, the attack looks like {{m|Flamethrower}}.<br /> * Corphish's claw is already glowing from {{m|Crabhammer}} when Treecko grabs onto it and before Ash says to use it.<br /> * When Corphish tries to get up during the battle with Natasha, its lower claw is orange instead of cream.<br /> * As everyone tries to catch the watermelons, Grovyle's mouth is no longer covered with tape.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> ====[[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]====<br /> * Question: Trainers, Which Pokémon is the best choice to battle {{p|Poliwrath}}?<br /> * Choices: {{p|Combusken}}, {{p|Mudkip}}, {{p|Taillow}}<br /> * Answer: Ok, Trainers!

It was first broadcast in Japan on September 11, 2003 and in the United States on October 16, 2004.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_06-love-at-first-flight/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash and friends are still on their way to Fallarbor Town and stop by Lake May for a rest, where they spot an Illumise and some Volbeat practicing for the May Festival. The Volbeat Trainer, Romeo, is a big klutz, and he causes an accident that sends all of the Pokémon crashing into the water. Ash and Brock send out their Water-type Pokémon to save them.<br /> <br /> It turns out that Romeo is in love with the Illumise Trainer, Juliet, and he gets nervous around her. May decides to help him practice confessing how he feels by having Ash dress up as Juliet.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Team Rocket has Meowth pose as a Volbeat, luring Illumise into a trap. Juliet goes searching for her Pokémon and instead comes across Romeo rehearsing with the kids. Romeo sends all of his Volbeat to track down Juliet's Illumise.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket uses Sweet Scent to lure all of the Pokémon into a powerful vacuum, capturing Ash and Pikachu in the process. Pikachu shocks the vacuum to shut it down, and the one free Volbeat uses Quick Attack to destroy it, freeing everyone. The combined Volbeat use Signal Beam to send Team Rocket blasting off again.<br /> <br /> Romeo confesses how he feels to Juliet, and they decide to marry. At the May Festival, the Volbeat and Illumise put on a spectacular performance.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> Still on their way to [[Fallarbor Town]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} find themselves along the shore of [[Lake May]], a coincidence that doesn't fall short on {{an|Brock}} or {{an|May}}, as she comments on the comparison of the lake's beauty and herself. [[Max]] disagrees; May isn't thrilled. Ash then points out something is hovering over the surface of the lake's water. It is an {{p|Illumise}} with a yellow bow around her neck, who displays her grace by gently touching the water in a pose, rippling the surface. Ash comments they haven't encountered one of them yet, and May subsequently points out another one they haven't seen before. It's a {{p|Volbeat}} with a red bow, flying across the lake, and the Illumise isn't unhappy to see him when he joins her.<br /> <br /> The pair then bow to one another, as dance partners would, and begin flying around one another in a wide circle. Brock identifies them for what they are (Volbeat and Illumise), prompting May and Ash to pull out their [[Pokédex]]es: May's identifies Illumise, and Ash's Volbeat. The<br /> two Firefly Pokémon are still dancing about. While watching, a Nurse Joy greets the group, asking of they are here for the May Festival, for the dance performance of Illumise and Volbeat. She notes that it is almost time for the practice runs, and indicated two people standing out on the lake's pier, saying they are Volbeat and Illumise's {{pkmn|Trainer}}s, [[Romeo]] and [[Juliet]].<br /> <br /> Cue Brock reacting as normal to any pretty woman, quoting lines from {{wp|Romeo and Juliet}}, before being pulled away by Max and May.<br /> <br /> Juliet introduces herself to the audience gathered at the lakefront, promising to make it a success; Romeo stands behind her, silent and somewhat dejected-looking. Nurse Joy goes on to comment to the group about a local legend, that anyone in love who watches Illumise and Volbeat dance together will be blessed with good luck. On the pier, Juliet tells Illumise it's time to start practicing and twirls a conductor's baton with a light at the tip of it, ordering Illumise to use {{m|Sweet Scent}}. As Illumise does, Juliet turns to Romeo and asks him to release more Volbeat. He complies, but the belt pack he carried them in falls onto the pier, with four [[Poké Ball]]s falling out. Juliet concernedly comments on this, indicating it is not the first time this has happened. Remorsefully, Romeo begins to gather them up.<br /> <br /> Brock isn't impressed with Romeo at all, naturally jealous over the match-up and making it clear, in his opinion, that Romeo isn't worthy of his place as Juliet's partner. May comments on his seemingly lack of dependability. Ash himself shouts out encouragements. Romeo thanks him, calls out the rest of his Volbeat, and tells his lead Volbeat it's time to start. Volbeat leads the now-quintet across the lake, but he's distracted by his feelings of love for Illumise and simply starts chasing her around, the rest following.<br /> <br /> Juliet is dismayed and tell Romeo to please conduct his Volbeat properly. Frozen, Romeo attempts to regain his composure and his Volbeat with a baton similar to Juliet's, but it fumbles from his hand onto the pier, threatening to fall into the water. At Romeo's cry, Volbeat stops to help, but ends up colliding with Illumise by accident, sending all five Volbeat and Illumise into the lake.<br /> <br /> At the distress of the two Trainers, the gang realize that isn't supposed to happen. The Volbeat are treading water at the surface, but Illumise is nowhere to be seen. Juliet makes to leap into the water, but accidentally bumps Romeo in the process, sending him into the water on the other side of the pier. It's a problem, because Romeo ''cannot swim''. May encourages Brock and Ash to help them all. Ash calls out {{AP|Corphish}} and Brock calls out {{TP|Brock|Lotad}} and {{TP|Brock|Mudkip}}, and all of them, including their two Trainers, dive into the water.<br /> <br /> Underwater, Juliet is frantically searching for Illumise, but she doesn't find her. Romeo, on the surface, is still threatening to drown, until Juliet resurfaces and he clings to her for his life. Brock instructs Mudkip to find Illumise and Lotad to help the Volbeat; Ash and Corphish also help in the Volbeat's aid. Underwater, Mudkip finds Illumise; at the same time, Lotad, Corphish, and Ash rescue the Volbeat.<br /> <br /> On the pier, everyone is recovering, and Brock brings Juliet a towel, which she thanks him for, but is more concerned for Illumise, who is in Nurse Joy's care. When Illumise is shown to be alright, Nurse Joy still tells Juliet it would be a good idea to give Illumise a check up, and then tells Romeo the same. Romeo thanks Ash, and introductions are finally made. Romeo is impressed with Ash's passion, comparing it to his own (his lack thereof), and accidentally sits on Corphish -- namely, the spikes on its head. No energy, he cites, leaping around in pain until he winds up back in the water. It's clear he suffers from misfortune.<br /> <br /> {{TRT}} are watching them, and [[Jessie]] hopes Romeo is alright, so she can see the Volbeat and Illumise dance and be brought good luck. [[James]] says it's only for people in love, but Jessie rebuts him, claiming she's already in love with a prince charming figure from her own fantasies. {{MTR}} suggests catching the Firefly Pokémon for {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}}, [[Boss fantasy|because they could be dancing entertainment]]. Predictably, the other two are enthused.<br /> <br /> At the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy returns Romeo's Volbeat. As thankful as he is, Romeo remains depressed, fearing he'll simply mess up the act again. The others offer to help him practice, and Romeo cheers up somewhat. Outside on the lakefront, however, it becomes obvious Romeo isn't as clumsy as he first appeared to be, directing the Volbeat with little issue. He says he's fine when he practices alone, but he and his lead Volbeat, [[nickname]]d Beat, tell to mess up when practicing with Juliet. May, however, senses what the problem ultimately is, and asked Romeo how he feels about Juliet. Claiming his chest tightens, his heart races, his hands sweat, and generally acts like a dunce when near her, May accurately tells him exactly what's wrong with him: he's lovesick.<br /> <br /> Romeo isn't sure if he is or not. He confesses he and Juliet have been friends since childhood, so it couldn't be possible. May contradicts him, telling him friends can fall in love, and it is likely Beat is also in love with Illumise; Beat doesn't deny it. Romeo isn't thrilled at the prospect, treating it like a problem, but May to the rescue: she has an idea, and asks a favor of Ash....<br /> <br /> That night, Juliet is approached by Romeo from behind, trying to confess his feelings, but can't quite do it. May pops in to try and encourage him that a confession will be the best route, but Romeo isn't convinced, worried Juliet might not feel the same. Ash, however, is impatient...and turns out to be disguised as Juliet. He's acting as her stand-in for Romeo, a part of May's plan, but Ash is only begrudgingly playing the part. But Romeo isn't feeling May's confidence, being unable to tell even a fake Juliet his feelings. Brock steps in to show Romeo how it's done, claiming to be Romeo's rival in love, and professes to Juliet-née-Ash his love. It's far too convincing an act, and Brock chases Ash around the porch, entirely absorbed by his own emotions. May isn't happy; Romeo's despondent. <br /> <br /> At her home, Juliet wonders about Romeo's change, and why he's clumsy compared to when he was younger, and how much fun they used to have. Flashback to Romeo and Juliet fishing along the lake shore. Juliet asks Romeo if he would like to marry her when they're grown up; Romeo casually-but-happily agrees. Juliet asked, &quot;Promise?&quot; and kisses him on the cheek, prompting them both to laugh. In the present, Juliet laments on the lost promise, and that she barely gets two words from him now.<br /> <br /> Outside her window, she and Illumise spot a light over the lake, which turns out to be Meowth disguised as a Volbeat, on a rope attached to Team Rocket's balloon. Once Illumise is lured over, Illumise is caught in a net and hauled up. On the shore, Juliet is confused, unable to see anything by the light of Illumise's bow and Meowth's tail-bulb, until they flicker out.<br /> <br /> Back at Romeo's, he's still trying to practice his confession to a dressed-up Ash, and is failing miserably. May chastises him, asking if he likes her (he nods), then he needs to tell her. Unbeknownst to any of the group, Juliet is in earshot, hiding behind a tree and indirectly having confirmed for herself Romeo's feelings. Brock jumps up to ride on the professions, and belatedly discovers Juliet hiding. She doesn't reveal what she's heard, but asks Romeo if it was his Volbeat by the lake, and when Romeo denies it, says Illumise disappeared when they thought Volbeat had been the one. However, Romeo comes up with a plan: his Volbeat will follow Illumise scent to track her down.<br /> <br /> Daybreak. Over the lake, Beat picks up her scent and fly off with the other four Volbeat behind him. The humans trail them, until they hit a sheer cliff. Romeo, with a change of character, tells the others he'll climb the cliff, but the others should find another way up. Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} accompany Romeo.<br /> <br /> At the top, they find Team Rocket, dressed up as Volbeat and Illumise with an {{DL|Team Rocket mottos|Love at First Flight motto|alternate motto}} to boot. They admit it was a trap, revealing Illumise hanging in a cage under their balloon-with-a-vacuum-attachment. The vacuum sucks up four of the Volbeat, and then Ash and Pikachu, who plug up the suction at the mouth; Juliet and the others aren't far off now. Ash tells Romeo he needs to save Illumise, and Romeo orders Beat to use {{m|Quick Attack}}. Beat smashes the cage, freeing Illumise. Meowth maximized the suction power, pulling Ash and Pikachu inside their containment unit (the fan part of the vacuum), and then go after the last two Pokémon.<br /> <br /> Inside, Ash orders a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, which cuts the vacuum's power. Romeo orders {{m|Double-Edge}}, and Beat smashes the containment unit, leaving Ash, Pikachu, and Volbeat quartet dizzy from their venture. Jessie sends out {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} to recapture the vulnerable Volbeat, but Juliet orders Sweet Scent to lure the Volbeat away. Jessie commands Seviper to try again, but Romeo calls for a five-way {{m|Signal Beam}} attack, effectively blasting Team Rocket off.<br /> <br /> The day is won, and Illumise kisses her main champion, Beat, on the cheek. Looking on, Romeo finds now to be the perfect time to confess his affections. Juliet, however, acts affronted, and Brock intercedes with his own vows of love. She does turn him down gently, however, claiming there was someone else, and goes on to remind Romeo of the promise they made to get married, and asks if he's going to keep it. Blushing, Romeo agrees, and it's a good end for everyone (except Brock's case of heartbreak). The following night, the performance is going well, as Romeo's confidence shines through. May attributes it to the [[Shipping|power of love]], which Ash questions, and May teases him some. As the episode closes, the Volbeat and Illumise dance light patterns in the night sky, from a circle, to a heart, to a Pikachu.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> <br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Illumise}}<br /> <br /> =====TV episode debuts=====<br /> * {{p|Volbeat}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * {{an|Giovanni}} ([[Boss fantasy|fantasy]])<br /> * [[Romeo]]<br /> * [[Juliet]]<br /> * Jessie's &quot;prince&quot; (fantasy)<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG042.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]: {{p|Plusle}}<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Corphish}} ({{OP|Ash|Corphish}})<br /> * {{p|Lotad}} ({{OP|Brock|Lotad}})<br /> * {{p|Mudkip}} ({{OP|Brock|Mudkip}})<br /> * {{p|Seviper}} ({{OP|Jessie|Seviper}})<br /> * {{p|Illumise}} ([[Juliet]]'s; debut)<br /> * {{p|Volbeat}} ([[Romeo]]'s; multiple, including one nicknamed Beat; debut)<br /> * {{p|Rapidash}} (fantasy)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The dub title is based on the phrase &quot;{{wp|Love at first sight}}&quot;.<br /> * For reasons unknown, this episode was pulled over and aired on a later date in the United States.<br /> * This is the fourth episode that makes a reference to {{wp|William Shakespeare}}'s play ''{{wp|Romeo and Juliet}}''.

It was first broadcast in Japan on September 25, 2003 and in the United States on September 25, 2004.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/07_03-the-princess-and-the-togepi/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash and friends welcome an old friend—Misty! She's received an invitation to a Togepi Festival, and is soon greeted by Team Rocket disguised as the operating committee for the festival. They escort Misty and Togepi inside a large building, which turns out to be a concealed zeppelin. Ash and friends climb aboard before takeoff, and the aircraft makes its way to the Mirage Kingdom.<br /> <br /> Misty leaves the zeppelin and is met by Colonel Hansen, who demands that she turn over Togepi. Ash and Brock step forward to protect her, sending out Mudkip and Pikachu. Misty, May, and Max flee while Pikachu and Mudkip battle Colonel Hansen's two Ninjask.<br /> <br /> Colonel Hansen's Shedinja catches up with Misty, who sends out her Corsola. During the battle, Togepi is blasted away and found unconscious in a stream by the princess of the Mirage Kingdom. A servant tells the king that the princess has finally found a Togepi, and they all gather in the princess' quarters to look at it.<br /> <br /> Misty arrives and demands the return of her Togepi. The princess and the servant explain that Togepi are worshipped in the Mirage Kingdom, and in order to become ruler, the princess must have one in her possession for the coronation ceremony. Colonel Hansen wants the throne for himself, which is why he tried to steal Misty's Togepi. The princess decides to send Misty and friends home with Togepi.<br /> <br /> As the gang are about to board the zeppelin, a mirror image of the temple appears in the sky. Togepi begins to glow and float toward it. Colonel Hansen arrives with Team Rocket, and his Shedinja attacks the group using Solar Beam, which Pikachu attempts to block with Thundershock.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{an|Brock}}, along with {{an|May}} and [[Max]] are walking when Ash and Brock spot a familiar figure. The figure turns out to be none other than {{an|Misty}}, their old traveling buddy! The old {{Ashfr|friends}} exchange greetings, and Misty proceeds to tell May and Max that she already knows their names. Misty shows off her invitation to a convention for {{p|Togepi}} Trainers and approaches the hotel behind them. Then, two mysterious people dressed in outfits with Togepi markings come up to Misty and take her into the building. Inside, the two people, who are actually {{TRT}}, tells {{MTR}} to take off. The building then collapses and a blimp starts floating away. Ash and his friends realize that Misty is in trouble and rush toward the rope hanging from the blimp. All of them manage to grab the rope and make their way into it. <br /> <br /> The blimp goes through a sandstorm in a desert and reaches its destination, the [[Mirage Kingdom]]. Meowth lands the blimp in a landing area, and [[Jessie]] and [[James]] disguise themselves again. As Misty leaves the blimp, Ash and the others come out, as well as Jessie and James. When asked for their identity, Team Rocket gladly recites their motto. Misty becomes furious at them, thinking that they were trying to steal {{AP|Pikachu}}. However, Team Rocket tells them that they were actually after {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}. As the battle commences, a man steps in with his {{p|Ninjask}} and {{p|Shedinja}}. <br /> <br /> He demands Togepi, but Misty refuses to hand it over to him. He says that his name is [[Colonel Hansen]]. Hansen then orders Shedinja to use {{m|SolarBeam}} to demonstrate its power. Ash and Brock face Hansen with {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Brock|Mudkip}}, while Misty, Max, and May run. When Hansen notices that the Togepi is getting away, he commands Shedinja to go after them. Misty, Max, and May keep running until they reach a maze. Shedinja appears, freaking Misty out, but she is determined to protect Togepi. She sends out {{TP|Misty|Corsola}} and orders it to use {{m|Spike Cannon}}. Unfortunately, the attack did not harm the bug Pokémon a bit. Shedinja attacks with another SolarBeam, hitting Misty so hard that she loses Togepi. <br /> <br /> A girl in a blue dress discovers Togepi and notices how hurt it is. She informs the caretaker about her find and brings Togepi to a room for treatment. This girl turns out to be [[Princess Sara|Sara]], the princess of the [[Mirage Kingdom]]. When Sara brings Togepi to her parents, both are thrilled by it. At this point, Misty barges in and sees Togepi. The queen thinks that Misty is trying to steal Togepi, but Sara quickly realizes that Togepi belonged to her. Misty thanks the princess for taking care of Togepi and proceeds to tell them that Hansen tried to steal it from her. <br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Hansen states that he has a plan to steal Togepi and tells Team Rocket that they will be rewarded if they help him. <br /> <br /> As Misty and company go outside of the temple, Ash and Brock meet up with them. Brock, as usual, goes gaga for the princess and starts flirting with her. Misty, also as usual, pulls him away from her by the ear, but she also throws him back. Max and May are quite shocked by this but they are impressed nevertheless. <br /> <br /> The princess explains the importance of Togepi to the kingdom. However, knowing that Hansen is set on trying to take Togepi, she asks Ash and his friends to leave the Mirage Kingdom immediately for their safety. However, as they are about to leave, they notice a temple in the sky. Togepi seems to be reaching for it and then it suddenly floats away. Hansen and Team Rocket appear. Shedinja fires a SolarBeam at them and Pikachu counters it with his {{m|Thunderbolt}}.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> [[File:Misty AG.png|thumb|220px|Misty making her return appearance]]<br /> * {{an|Misty}} returns, with {{an|May}} and [[Max]] meeting her for the first time.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * {{ho|Miranda}}<br /> * [[Princess Sara]]<br /> * [[Colonel Hansen]]<br /> * [[King and Queen of the Mirage Kingdom]]<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Ninjask}}<br /> * {{p|Shedinja}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|May}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Max]]<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * {{ho|Miranda}}<br /> * [[Princess Sara]]<br /> * [[Colonel Hansen]]<br /> * [[King and Queen of the Mirage Kingdom]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:PTC AG044.png|thumb|200px|right|Pokémon Trainer's Choice]]<br /> [[Pokémon Trainer’s Choice]]: {{p|Minun}}<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Corsola}} ({{OP|Misty|Corsola}})<br /> * {{p|Mudkip}} ({{OP|Brock|Marshtomp}})<br /> * {{p|Shedinja}} ([[Colonel Hansen]]'s; debut)<br /> * {{p|Ninjask}} ([[Colonel Hansen]]'s; debut, ×2)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This was the first episode featuring {{an|Misty}}'s [[List of clothing in the anime#Advanced Generation 2 |''Advanced Generation'' outfit.]]<br /> * This was also {{an|Misty}}'s first main series appearance after ''[[EP273|Gotta Catch Ya Later!]]''.<br /> * This episode aired in the United States exactly one year after its Japanese air date.<br /> * The dub title is based on the Danish fairy tale ''{{wp|The Princess and the Pea}}'' by {{wp|Hans Christian Andersen}}.<br /> * The Japanese voice artists for {{Ash}}'s first three female traveling companions are featured in this episode and the [[AG045|next one]]; [[Mayumi Iizuka]] and [[KAORI]] voice {{an|Misty}} and {{an|May}} respectively and [[Megumi Toyoguchi]], who voices Princess Sara in this episode, went on to play {{an|Dawn}} during the {{series|Diamond &amp; Pearl}}.<br /> * This episode has the distinction of being one of three featuring the most leads in a single episode.

(Japanese: '''ソーナンスのむら！？''' ''Village of {{tt|Sonans|Wobbuffet}}!?'') is the 173rd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on November 16, 2000 and in the United States on October 27, 2001. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/04_16-wobbu-palooza/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Breaking for lunch at a spot in the forest, our heroes notice a nearby Wobbuffet and begin to look around for it's cohorts, Team Rocket! Although there's no sign of Team Rocket, everywhere they look there are more Wobbuffet popping up. The gang follows them to Wobbuffet Village and finds out the village is about to have their annual Wobbuffet fair. Due to festival rules, our heroes aren't able to help when a gang of punks and their Pokémon try to ruin the fair. Team Rocket are the only one's in a position to help. Will they come to the town's aid because they have a Wobbuffet of their own?&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} are finishing up a lunch break on the road to [[Ecruteak City]], when they are accosted by a {{p|Wobbuffet}}. At first, they assume that {{TRT}} must be nearby, but suddenly more Wobbuffet emerge from the bushes.<br /> <br /> The group follows the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and eventually comes to a town full of Wobbuffet and their Trainers. A resident explains that this is [[Wobbuffet Village]], where everybody owns a Wobbuffet. Furthermore, the village is in the midst of its annual [[Wobbuffet Festival]].<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Team Rocket has arrived on the outskirts of the village too, exhausted. While [[Jessie]] berates her {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} for popping up unannounced as usual, yet more Wobbuffet appear around them. A villager, {{OBP|Lulu|EP173}}, approaches with her own Wobbuffet and congratulates Jessie on hers. Assuming that Team Rocket is there for the festival, she invites them to her home. Though they are thoroughly bemused by the notion of a festival honoring Wobbuffet, they quickly change their tune when their host arrives with mountains of food. They are even happier to learn that there will be more food at the festival. Lulu gives Jessie's Wobbuffet a yellow headband, and takes them to see the &quot;festival symbol&quot;, which is a huge sculpture of a Wobbuffet. While Jessie struggles to hide her incredulity, a [[Wobbuffet Festival crashers|suspicious trio]] watch from the cliffs above, and call out their Pokémon: {{p|Hitmonlee}}, {{p|Machoke}} and {{p|Primeape}}.<br /> <br /> Ash and friends are enjoying the festival when there is a commotion. A girl, {{OBP|Annie|EP173}}, is crying because somebody attacked her Wobbuffet. Moments later, a man, [[Yahichi]], reports that three assailants attacked his Wobbuffet too.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket, meanwhile, is searching for the festival's food stocks. Ash and friends discover them, despite a hastily improvised disguise, and immediately conclude that they are the mystery attackers. Team Rocket protests their innocence, and is vouched for by Lulu. A report comes through of another attack, and Ash reluctantly concludes that Team Rocket couldn't have done it. He and his friends leave to investigate the attack, while Team Rocket gets back to their plan to steal the festival's food.<br /> <br /> The group arrives back at the festival to find the three festival crashers and their Pokémon standing beneath the giant Wobbuffet sculpture, having just beaten up another Wobbuffet. One of the festival organizers recalls that the same trio attacked the village a year ago. Rather than training their {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon normally, they instructed them to attack the village in order to build up their strength. When they reached Lulu's house, however, her Wobbuffet's skillful use of {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}} proved to be their undoing, and they fled the village, vowing revenge. While the organizer runs to find Lulu and [[Officer Jenny]], the trio boasts that their Pokémon are now much stronger, and they intend to beat up every Wobbuffet in the village to prove it.<br /> <br /> By now, Team Rocket has cleared out almost all of the food in the store room, when they notice Lulu, Officer Jenny and their Wobbuffet hurrying to the festival in a panic. Meanwhile, Ash challenges the festival crashers, who agree to a three-on-three battle. Ash sends out {{AP|Chikorita}}, Misty sends out {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} and Brock sends out {{TP|Brock|Golbat}}. Hitmonlee and Chikorita are just about to clash when Officer Jenny breaks up the battle, explaining that Pokémon battles are forbidden during the festival, in honor of Wobbuffet's characteristic of never attacking first. Ash and friends agree to observe the rule, but the festival crashers turn their attention to the giant Wobbuffet sculpture instead, making their Pokémon destroy it.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket watches the scene from the bushes. Jessie and {{MTR}} are baffled that the villagers are refusing to fight back in such exceptional circumstances, but [[James]] seems to understand, observing that it shows their dedication to their Wobbuffet. He suggests that they do something to help, and although Jessie is reluctant, Meowth reminds her of how well the villagers have treated them.<br /> <br /> Ash is desperate to stop the festival crashers in their continuing destruction of the festival symbol, but Lulu holds him back, unwilling to break the festival's non-violent tradition. Suddenly, Team Rocket descends in their balloon, recites their [[Team Rocket mottos|motto]] and confronts the villains. Despite Officer Jenny's protests, they insist on a battle with the festival crashers, explaining that they don't care about the festival's rules. Jessie sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}, and James sends out {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, who attempts to eat Meowth for a change. The Hitmonlee uses {{m|Rolling Kick}} against Arbok, which responds with a {{m|Tackle}}. Machoke uses {{m|Karate Chop}} on Victreebel, which counterattacks with {{m|Razor Leaf}}, although this is blocked by Primeape. Arbok then tries to use {{m|Wrap}} against Hitmonlee, but is knocked out by a {{m|Hi Jump Kick}} before it can pull it off. Machoke also finishes off Victreebel with a {{m|Seismic Toss}}. Angry, Jessie sends out Wobbuffet, which looks less than threatening in his headband. The festival crashers laugh, and then order their Pokémon to attack. However, Wobbuffet Counters Hitmonlee's {{m|Jump Kick}}, followed by Machoke's Seismic Toss, and then Primeape's {{m|Fury Swipes}}. The crashers decide to combine their Pokémon's attacks in order to beat Wobbuffet, but Wobbuffet Counters all three, sending the Pokémon blasting off, Team Rocket-style. <br /> <br /> The festival crashers flee the scene, and Lulu thanks Team Rocket for their help. However, Officer Jenny reminds them that they still broke the festival rules, and so they agree to leave. As their balloon takes off, they can be seen lifting away all of the festival's food, and so Ash, Misty, Brock and Officer Jenny give chase. Misty instructs her {{TP|Misty|Staryu}} to burst their balloon with a Tackle, which it does. Brought down to the ground, Team Rocket sends out Arbok and {{TP|James|Weezing}}, pointing out that Ash and friends can't battle them, as battling is forbidden during the festival. Officer Jenny reminds them that since they are now outside the village, battling is actually permitted. {{AP|Pikachu}} uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and Team Rocket is sent blasting off.<br /> <br /> While Ash and friends enjoy the festival beneath the rebuilt festival symbol, Team Rocket laments their misfortune - although, as Jessie observes, they still have their Wobbuffet.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:Dare da EP173.png|200px|thumb|right|{{tt|Dare da?|Who's That Pokémon?}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Officer Jenny]]<br /> * {{OBP|Lulu|EP173}}<br /> * [[Nario]]<br /> * {{OBP|Annie|EP173}}<br /> * [[Yahichi]]<br /> * [[Tatsuro]]<br /> * [[Wobbuffet Festival crashers]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP173.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Sneasel}} ''(U.S. and international)'', [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]] ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Chikorita}} ({{OP|Ash|Chikorita}})<br /> * {{p|Staryu}} ({{OP|Misty|Staryu}})<br /> * {{p|Poliwhirl}} ({{OP|Misty|Poliwhirl}})<br /> * {{p|Golbat}} ({{OP|Brock|Golbat}})<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}})<br /> * {{p|Weezing}} ({{OP|James|Weezing}})<br /> * {{p|Victreebel}} ({{OP|James|Victreebel}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OBP|Lulu|EP173}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ([[Nario]]'s, multiple)<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OBP|Annie|EP173}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ([[Yahichi]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ([[Tatsuro]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} (multiple; Wobbuffet Village residents)<br /> * {{p|Primeape}} ([[Wobbuffet Festival crashers|Festival crasher]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Machoke}} ([[Wobbuffet Festival crashers|Festival crasher]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Hitmonlee}} ([[Wobbuffet Festival crashers|Festival crasher]]'s)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * [[To My Best Friend]] replaces [[Exciting Pokémon Relay]] as the [[List of Japanese ending themes|Japanese ending theme]].<br /> * Unlike other episodes with groups of one Pokémon, many of the Wobbuffet in this episode have variations from the base design.<br /> * In a variation of the usual running gag, Victreebel eats Meowth on being released.<br /> * The English title is based on &quot;''{{wp|Lollapalooza}}''&quot;.<br /> * This episode is featured on ''Volume 14: Wobbuffet'' from [[Viz Media]]'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 1}} series.<br /> * This episode is featured on ''Pokémon All-Stars: Wobbuffet'' from {{wp|Magna Pacific}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 4}} series.<br /> * The [[Pokémon Junior]] book, &quot;[[The Wobbuffet Village]]&quot; follows the plot of this episode.<br /> * This is one of the few episodes where Team Rocket decides to help other people and wins in a Pokémon battle.<br /> * This episode uses music from ''[[PK02|Pikachu's Rescue Adventure]]'' and ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.<br /> * Team Rocket challenges the [[Wobbuffet Festival crashers|festival crashers]] to a [[Triple Battle]], even though Triple Battles weren't introduced until almost 10 years later.<br /> * Machoke uses Seismic Toss in a manner similar to [[Ash's Charizard]].<br /> * [https://web.archive.org/web/20130119165925/http://www.pokemon.com/us/tv-episodes/season-4/episode-16-04_16-wobbapalooza/ Pokemon.com] formerly listed this episode's title as '''Wobbapalooza'''.<br /> * This episode premiered in Japan on [[Shigeru Miyamoto]]'s 48th birthday.<br /> <br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * When Jessie uses her Wobbuffet in battle, the Machoke {{pkmn|Trainer}} calls for a {{m|Seismic Toss}} but Machoke uses {{m|Karate Chop}}.<br /> ** Soon afterwards, Machoke is asked to do a Karate Chop, but ends up doing a {{m|Cross Chop}} instead.<br /> * The Wobbuffet symbol has a blue tail instead of a black tail.<br /> * After the scene when Team Rocket is seen leaving in their balloon, Brock's belt is colored green.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * Some shots were cut and shortened for the English dub for time.

Catch It!!'') is the 141st episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on March 30, 2000 and in the United States on March 3, 2001.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/03_36-good-quil-hunting/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;With Charizard gone and no fire Pokémon to call his own, Ash is overjoyed to come across a Cyndaquil in the wild. Before Ash captures the little Pokémon, though, he'll have to face another Trainer with similar designs.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} find themselves lost in a forest on their way to [[Azalea Town]]. {{an|Brock}} thinks there must be something wrong with the map but Ash says all they need to do is keep going through the forest until they reach the road again. A kid with purple hair comes up to them and asks if they have seen any {{p|Cyndaquil}} around. This interests Ash who looks around excitedly. Ash starts looking through bushes and the kid threatens him to leave any Cyndaquil he finds alone. Brock and {{an|Misty}} tell him he can't tell Ash to leave them alone and if he finds one he has the right to catch it. In the meantime Ash and Pikachu have ran off in search of Cyndaquil. {{TRT}} sets their sights on Brock and Misty, believing Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} are with them. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] start talking about all the menial jobs they took to raise money for the new equipment they bought to build a new machine. Jessie is shown working fast food and James is at a construction job. Team Rocket starts their motto when they reach Brock and Misty but stop when they realize Ash and Pikachu aren't with them. <br /> <br /> Team Rocket spots Ash and Pikachu in the woods and goes after them, springing along using their new Meowth mecha. Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} but the mecha absorbs it and Team Rocket uses the energy to fire their &quot;bubblegum bombs&quot;. Ash runs and manages to dive into the woods for cover. The mecha finds Ash with its &quot;eye beam&quot; and targets him so James can fire another bubblegum bomb. It misses and they trip over a tree root. Ash and Pikachu emerge from the forest and come across a series of small caves along a wall of rock. A {{AP|Cyndaquil}} pops out of one of the caves. Ash gets out his [[Pokédex]] and then starts to climb up to the cave. The purple haired boy from before sees Ash climbing up to the Cyndaquil so he commands his Sandslash to use {{m|Sand-Attack}}. Sand flies into Ash's face and he slips and falls back to the ground. Cyndaquil runs back into the cave it came from and the kid runs after him. As Ash attempts to follow, Team Rocket shows up, but Ash says that he has no time for them and dashes after the Cyndaquil and the other kid. When Ash enters the cave he sees several small holes where Cyndaquil could have gone. He then sees Cyndaquil run past him but before he can go after it he is tripped by Sandslash. <br /> <br /> Team Rocket aims a &quot;putty ball&quot; into the cave to try to run Ash out. The ball heads straight toward him and he runs to avoid it. Meanwhile the purple haired boy has Cyndaquil up against a wall and is trying to battle with it. His Sandslash uses {{m|Poison Sting}} but before it can hit Ash grabs Cyndaquil while still running from the putty ball. The putty ball hits the kid and then goes after Ash again. Ash is blasted out of the cave and confronted by Team Rocket. Finally they are able to trap Ash and Pikachu with a bubblegum bomb. Ash lets Cyndaquil free and tells it to run before it gets hurt, but Cyndaquil doesn't move and Team Rocket attempts to trap it. Before the giant Meowth can make its move Cyndaquil uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, destroying Team Rocket's mecha. Pikachu frees himself and Ash with Thunderbolt and Ash throws a [[Poké Ball]] at Cyndaquil so it doesn't get hurt by the explosion just as Team Rocket blasts off. <br /> <br /> Ash discovers he has caught Cyndaquil as Brock and Misty show up. The purple haired kid comes out of the cave wanting to catch Cyndaquil, but when he realizes that he was beaten to it he challenges Ash to a battle to see who gets Cyndaquil. Brock remarks that Ash already caught Cyndaquil so he doesn't have to battle for him but Ash accepts the challenge despite Brock's wise words. He even uses his new Cyndaquil in the battle, confident that it will use its powerful Flamethrower attack again. Cyndaquil does nothing in battle besides dodging Sandslash's attacks. Ash is impressed with Cyndaquil's defense skills which wear Sandslash out. Sandslash recovers and uses {{m|Swift}}, which Ash tells Cyndaquil to counter with Flamethrower. Cyndaquil's Flamethrower attack fails. Cyndaquil continues to dodge attacks but is finally knocked back into a tree. It quickly recovers and causes Sandslash to get stuck then finally finishes the battle with {{m|Tackle}}. Angered, the kid gets out a bug net and tries to steal Cyndaquil.

(Japanese: '''エアームドＶＳヒノアラシ！はがねのつばさ！！''' ''{{tt|Airmd|Skarmory}} VS {{tt|Hinoarashi|Cyndaquil}}! Steel Wing!! '') is the 152nd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on June 15, 2000 and in the United States on May 12, 2001.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/03_47-hot-matches/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;When Ash and friends hear of a virtually undefeatable trainer operating nearby, they seek her out, only to see first Brock's Vulpix and then Ash's Cyndaquil take heavy abuse from her Skarmory—despite its disadvantage against the Fire element.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> As {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} leave the [[Pokémon Center]], Ash bumps into a kid holding a {{p|Growlithe}} in his hands. He warns them to not go near a {{pkmn|Trainer}} by a certain bridge, but once he leaves, Ash decides to go anyway. As the group is discussing which Pokémon the Trainer might use, {{TRT}} overhears their conversation and decides to snag the Pokémon when they are weak in the {{pkmn|battle}}. Once they reach the destination, {{an|Misty}} spots someone. It turns out that the Trainer is a girl, much to {{an|Brock}}'s excitement. He does his usual girl technique, and she reveals that her name is [[Miki]], but instead she decides to battle him.<br /> <br /> She tells Brock to send out a {{type|Fire}} Pokémon as she is trying to get her {{p|Skarmory}} to be stronger and beat any type of Pokémon; even its weaknesses which includes Fire-type Pokémon. Miki sends out {{p|Skarmory}}, while Brock sends out his only Fire-type Pokémon, {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}}. The battle starts with Skarmory making a dust cloud in Vulpix's face, while it swoops back into the air. Before Skarmory can attack Vulpix uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, only to miss because of Skarmory using {{m|Agility}}. It then turns into an Agility battle when Vulpix tries to run away from Skarmory using Agility. Skarmory then uses {{m|Steel Wing}} on Vulpix, causing massive damage to Vulpix, ending the battle. Miki asks Brock if he has any more Fire-type Pokémon, but Ash instead says that he has one, but it might just be too hot for her Skarmory to battle against. <br /> <br /> The battle starts, and Ash sends out {{AP|Cyndaquil}}. Skarmory attacks with {{m|Fury Attack}} as Cyndaquil dodges. Cyndaquil, still trying to get its flames going gets attacked by {{m|Swift}}. Cyndaquil dodges another Fury Attack using Agility, but gets hit by the last one. Cyndaquil then got its flames going, as it then uses Flamethrower. It misses, and then Cyndaquil gets attacked by Swift. Skarmory swoops down to use Steel Wing, when Cyndaquil uses Flamethrower, missing yet another time. Just as Skarmory is about to attack, cranes shoot down and grab the two Pokémon. Team Rocket recites their motto, when the rage starts between Ash and friends and Team Rocket. Skarmory escapes using Swift on the rope, while Cyndaquil is still held captive. After a long time of running, Skarmory shows up and uses Steel Wing on the balloon. They go blasting off again, while Ash catches Cyndaquil who falls from the balloon in a box. Later, they arrive at Miki's house to eat food made by Brock. She reveals that she and Skarmory do almost everything together. Ash and Cyndaquil are then seen running up a hill, trying to get stronger. Ash tells Cyndaquil to hit him with the best {{m|Tackle}} attack it can do. <br /> <br /> After a little while, Ash tells it to get his flame going. After trying several times, he says that Cyndaquil should practice its Agility attack. The scene cuts back to Miki's house, showing the Pokémon eating and same with Miki, Brock, and Misty. Miki says that Ash went out early and she wonders where he went. The scene then cuts back to Ash and Cyndaquil. Ash says that he's really hungry. He then tells Cyndaquil to use Tackle on him again, as it knocks him into an apple tree. He then pulls out an apple, just to find a Beedrill holding on to it. A whole swarm of Beedrill come out of the tree and start chasing after them. Ash then stumbles onto the ground. Cyndaquil knows they are in trouble and gets its fire started and uses {{m|Flamethrower}} to scare the Beedrill off. Ash tells Cyndaquil to remember how it got its fire started and they battle Miki again. After withstanding 3 {{m|Steel Wing}}s, Cyndaquil manages to defeat the Skarmory using {{m|Flamethrower}}. Miki decides to battle Gym Leaders to see if she can become a Champion and hopes that she'll meet Ash again.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Cyndaquil}} learns to ignite the flame on its back at will.<br /> * Ash's Cyndaquil is revealed to know {{m|Agility}} and {{m|SmokeScreen}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts==== <br /> * {{p|Skarmory}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:Dare da EP152.png|200px|right|thumb|{{tt|Dare da?|Who's That Pokémon?}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Miki]]<br /> * Growlithe's {{pkmn|Trainer}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP152.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Aipom}} ''(U.S. and international)'', {{p|Skarmory}} ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Cyndaquil}} ({{OP|Ash|Cyndaquil}})<br /> * {{p|Vulpix}} ({{OP|Brock|Vulpix}})<br /> * {{p|Skarmory}} ([[Miki]]'s, debut)<br /> * {{p|Growlithe}} (unknown Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Beedrill}} (swarm)<br /> {{right clear}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * [[Exciting² Pokémon Relay]] replaced [[Exciting Pokémon Relay]] as the [[List of Japanese ending themes|Japanese ending theme]].<br /> * {{p|Skarmory}}'s voice is dubbed in this episode, but in every other appearance after this one (until ''[[AG175|Going for Choke!]]''), it keeps its Japanese voice.<br /> * Every Poke Ball Sound is out of sync.<br /> * This episode is featured on ''Pokémon All-Stars: Cyndaquil'' from {{wp|Magna Pacific}}'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 4}} series.<br /> * This episode premiered in Japan on [[Yūji Ueda]]'s 33rd birthday.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * During Ash's first battle, Miki tells Skarmory to use Fury instead of {{m|Fury Attack}}.<br /> * Cyndaquil used {{m|Agility}} in this episode, although [[Anime move errors|it shouldn't be able to learn the move]].<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * When this episode first premiered on {{DL|Pokémon in the United States|Kids' WB!}}, the part which shows Ash training with Cyndaquil to the part where he gets a bite to eat was cut out in order to make room for [[Pokérap GS]].

(Japanese: '''チョウジジム！こおりのたたかい！''' ''{{tt|Chōji|Mahogany}} Gym! Ice Battle!'') is the 238th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on February 28, 2002 and in the United States on March 8, 2003.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_29-nice-pryce-baby/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Having earned Pryce's respect and permission to face the trainer in a gym battle, Ash makes the unlikely choice of sending out Cyndaquil, a Fire Pokémon, to face his opponent on an Ice battlefield. Fortunately, Ash's strategy pans out as he leads the gym leader to lower his defenses, allowing Ash to take the first victory in a two-on-two match. Next the gym leader sends out his trusty Piloswine, which immediately unleashes a Blizzard attack that completely alters the battlefield, allowing it to make quick work of Ash's defending Pokémon. With one victory each, the round enters sudden death with each trainer playing his oldest, most reliable Pokémon. A seasoned duo, Ash and Pikachu may match the teamwork of the gym leader and his Piloswine, but will this be enough in a slippery ice arena that is second nature to Piloswine, but whereon Pikachu struggles even to stand?&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> In [[EP237|the last episode]], {{Ash}} has earned [[Pryce]]’s respect and permission to face him in a Gym battle. Pryce is grooming [[Pryce's Piloswine|his Piloswine]] when Ash and {{ashfr}} arrive. They then get ready to start their Gym battle. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} plans to steal all the {{t|Ice}} Pokémon, but keep some for themselves. The Gym battle then begins. Ash makes the smart choice of sending out {{AP|Cyndaquil}}, a {{type|Fire}} Pokémon, against Pryce's {{p|Dewgong}}, but at a disadvantage, because he will have to face his opponent on an ice battlefield. Fortunately, Ash’s strategy pans out as he leads the Gym Leader to lower his {{stat|Defense}}s, allowing Ash to take the first victory in a two-on-two match.<br /> <br /> Next, Pryce sends out his trusty {{TP|Pryce|Piloswine}}. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is about to steal the Pokémon in their trusty net, but they are frozen by them with {{m|Ice Beam}}. We switch back to Piloswine, which immediately unleashes a {{m|Blizzard}} attack that completely alters the battlefield, allowing it to make quick work of Ash’s Cyndaquil. With one victory each, the round enters sudden death with each Trainer playing his oldest, most reliable Pokémon. A seasoned duo, Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}} prepare to battle Pryce's Piloswine. Things start out rough when Piloswine releases a barrage of Blizzard attacks on Pikachu, who is still struggling to stand up straight on the ice. After seeing the ice pillars on the battlefield formed by Piloswine's Blizzard, Ash commands Pikachu to slide on the ice underneath Piloswine. This confuses it, as well as Pryce. Then, Pikachu ricochets off of the pillars while sliding, easily dodging the Blizzards. When Pryce tells Piloswine to use Blizzard on the whole battlefield, Pikachu slides under it, and unleashes a powerful {{m|Thunder}}.<br /> <br /> Almost out of energy, Piloswine uses {{m|Rest}}. Ash tells Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}} before it heals, but he's too late, and it uses {{m|Fury Attack}} and {{m|Take Down}}. Pryce tells Ash to give in the towel, but he won't give up. The battle then continues on. Ash commands him to use Quick Attack to counter Piloswine's Fury Attack. A direct hit in the nose, Piloswine slides back. Pikachu unleashes a massive {{m|Thunderbolt}}, which does nothing to it. Piloswine uses Take Down, and Pikachu jumps on its face and uses Thunder. This causes some damage, and creates a hole in the field, putting Piloswine in the water, as Pikachu uses Thunderbolt again, causing more damage because it's all wet. Piloswine shakes it off, leaving Ash and co. surprised. It uses Fury Attack, and Pikachu can't dodge it due to it losing control. Ash commands a Thunder, which sends Pikachu flying backwards. Pikachu looks exhausted, but stands up, ready to fight. Pryce then forfeits, which gives Ash the victory under a {{tt|T.K.O.|Technical Knock Out}}. Ash isn't pleased at first, saying he didn't actually win, but once he hears how much Pryce admired his strength and that he just didn't want his Piloswine to get hurt, he gladly accepts the {{Badge|Glacier|Badge}}.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> [[File:Ash Glacier Badge.png|thumb|220px|Ash holding the Glacier Badge]]<br /> * {{Ash}} has a Gym battle with [[Pryce]] and Pryce forfeits, earning Ash the {{badge|Glacier}}.<br /> * Ash and {{ashfr}} head to [[Blackthorn City]] for Ash's final [[Johto]] Gym battle.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> {{-}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP238.png|thumb|right|200px|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Pryce]]<br /> * [[Sheila]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP238.png|thumb|200px|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Weedle}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Piloswine}} ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Cyndaquil}} ({{OP|Ash|Cyndaquil}})<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}}, flashback)<br /> * {{p|Noctowl}} ({{OP|Ash|Noctowl}}, flashback)<br /> * {{p|Phanpy}} ({{OP|Ash|Phanpy}}, flashback)<br /> * {{p|Piloswine}} ({{OP|Pryce|Piloswine}})<br /> * {{p|Seel}} (various, [[Pryce]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Dewgong}} (various, [[Pryce]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Shellder}} (various, [[Pryce]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Lapras}} (various, [[Pryce]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Poliwhirl}} (fantasy)<br /> * {{p|Marill}} (fantasy)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The dub title is a reference to &quot;{{wp|Ice Ice Baby}}&quot;, a song by {{wp|Vanilla Ice}}.<br /> * Music from ''[[PK02|Pikachu's Rescue Adventure]]'', ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back!]]'' and ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' is used in this episode.<br /> * When Jessie finds out about Pryce being the gym leader, she says that Pryce wasn't right, a reference to the game show {{wp|The Price Is Right}}.<br /> * When Pikachu uses Thunderbolt while Piloswine is in the water, Brock says that because of this, Thunderbolt's power is double.

It was first broadcast in Japan on November 30, 2000 and in the United States on November 3, 2001.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/04_18-the-trouble-with-snubbull/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;As our heroes take a brief rest near a river, Ash sees a Snubbull rush by on the opposite bank. This wasn't just any Snubbull either, this one was Madame Muchmoney's! Ash, Misty and Brock follow Pikachu as it picks up Snubbull's scent and leads them in the search for the wealthy woman's Pokémon. Our heroes are racing against time when Team Rocket sets a trap for Snubbull, hoping to get a cash reward from Madam Muchmoney. Don't miss Snubbull's reaction when it encounters Team Rocket... it's so exciting and new, it's evolutionary!&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} stop by the bank of a river and {{AP|Pikachu}} hears something. Ash looks to the other side of the water to see a {{p|Snubbull}} with red ribbons on its ears running past. {{an|Misty}} asks Ash what's wrong and he tells her that he had just seen [[Madame Muchmoney]]'s {{TP|Madame Muchmoney|Snubbull}} run by. {{an|Brock}} and Misty look, but they can't see it; however, Ash says that he was sure it was hers since it had big red ribbons on its ears.<br /> <br /> Shortly, Snubbull notices {{TRT}} talking about how hungry they are while walking through the forest. Soon, {{MTR}} shouts out: Snubbull has suddenly {{m|Bite|bitten}} his tail! [[Jessie]] and [[James]] tell him he should be happy that Snubbull likes him. Meowth replies that he hates Snubbull and shakes the Pokémon off his tail.<br /> <br /> Elsewhere, Ash, Misty, and Brock have continued through the forest. Ash says that he was positive he saw Madame Muchmoney's Snubbull but that it's probably gone now. They notice a man on the road who appears to be injured and they give him some water. They quickly recognize him as [[Jeeves]] from Madame Muchmoney's mansion. He tells them that he and Madame Muchmoney had split up to forage for food. Suddenly, Madame Muchmoney swings in on a vine, carrying a basket of mushrooms.<br /> <br /> They decide to cook the mushrooms while Madame Muchmoney tells them that Snubbull had run away several weeks ago, so she and Jeeves went looking for the Pokémon in all kinds of places. During their long search, Madame Muchmoney had developed some muscles she never knew she had. Brock says that since she's now in such great shape, she can become an amazing [[Pokémon Trainer]]. He explains that to train a strong {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} you have to be strong yourself so that the Pokémon has a powerful role-model. <br /> <br /> Jeeves points out that she will first need a Pokémon in order to be a Trainer. Ash then reveals that he had seen her Snubbull earlier. He goes on to say that if they use their Pokémon, they can find it. He asks for something with Snubbull's scent on it, so Madame Muchmoney produces a ribbon that Snubbull used to wear and Ash gives it to Pikachu. Pikachu picks up the scent and begins tracking the lost Pokémon.<br /> <br /> Elsewhere, Snubbull wanders through the forest, depressed that Meowth said he hated her. She then hears something in the bushes. She thinks it is Meowth with flowers for her and that he will ask her to bite his tail all she wants. She soon sees a tail that looks like Meowth's, so she bites it. It turns out to be a {{p|Mankey}}'s tail instead. The Mankey knocks Snubbull out and then runs off.<br /> <br /> Ash and the others quickly find Snubbull laying on the ground, injured. They take her to a nearby [[Pokémon Center]]; there, [[Nurse Joy]] says that Snubbull is fine, but a bit shaken up. Brock says that Snubbull is really lucky and then tries to flirt with Nurse Joy.<br /> <br /> Madame Muchmoney tells Snubbull that once they get home, Snubbull can explore all she wants without leaving the mansion property. Jeeves tells them that the mansion's gardens are being renovated to make it a nature park for Snubbull. Ash mentions that Snubbull doesn't look so happy about this. As a result, Madame Muchmoney thinks there might be something wrong with Snubbull, so Nurse Joy takes the Pokémon to run some tests.<br /> <br /> Later, Snubbull lays in bed, thinking about Meowth and his tail. Nurse Joy comes in to tell Snubbull that all the test results came out fine, but Snubbull's bed is empty!<br /> <br /> Afterwards, Team Rocket is walking through the city, talking about food again. Jessie says that Meowth shouldn't have been so mean to Snubbull, but Meowth replies that he had to do it to save his tail. They hear Madame Muchmoney calling out for Snubbull. Thinking that they will be rewarded by Madame Muchmoney if they find Snubbull, they decide to use Meowth for bait by hanging him from a tree. Meowth is not very happy about this. Snubbull hears Meowth crying out to be let down and Jessie tells Meowth that they all have to make sacrifices. <br /> <br /> Jessie and James start calling for Snubbull and she comes out; but instead of going straight for Meowth's tail, she just stands there, looking angry. Suddenly, Snubbull starts to [[evolution|evolve]] and becomes a {{p|Granbull}}! Jessie tries to send {{p|Wobbuffet}}, but the Pokémon backs far away, so she returns Wobbuffet to his [[Poké Ball]]. She sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} instead, who uses {{m|Tackle}} on the newly evolved Pokémon. Granbull sees Arbok's tail and, thinking that it is Meowth's tail, bites it. James sends out {{TP|James|Weezing}} and tells it to use its {{m|SmokeScreen}} attack. Arbok escapes from Granbull's bite and Meowth frees himself from his bonds. Using a remote control, Meowth summons forth a [[Team Rocket's mechas|giant Meowth robot]] and Team Rocket rushes inside of it. Meowth makes the robot wag its tail and Granbull bites on. He drops a cage and tries to put Granbull in it, but Granbull won't let go of the giant tail. <br /> <br /> Ash and the others arrive. They notice Granbull and Ash looks it up in the [[Pokédex]]. Madame Muchmoney recognizes the ribbons on Granbull's ears and tells the others that it's her Snubbull. Team Rocket notices the new arrivals, so Jessie and James come out of the robot and tell Madame Muchmoney that they had been looking for Snubbull everywhere. Ash and Misty suspect that Team Rocket is up to something while Brock wonders if they've turned over a new leaf; however, Jeeves and Madame Muchmoney thank them, and they reply that no thanks are necessary and that Madame Muchmoney's happiness is their reward. Madame Muchmoney then goes right by them towards Granbull. Jessie and James hope that they didn't take them seriously about not needing a reward. <br /> <br /> Madame Muchmoney tries to pull Granbull off of the Meowth robot with Jeeves's help, but the Pokémon won't let go. Meowth, still inside the robot, also tries to get Granbull off the tail by electrocuting her, but it doesn't work. Since Madame Muchmoney and Jeeves are both holding Granbull, they get shocked as well. Meowth then tries getting her off by wagging the machine's tail, but this only succeeds in shaking off Jeeves and Madame Muchmoney. Ash, Misty, and Brock realize that Team Rocket really is up to no good. <br /> <br /> Jessie and James finally return to their machine and announce that they will only give Granbull back if the group hands over Pikachu. Ash wants to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} but Misty points out that this would shock Granbull as well. Ash sends out {{AP|Cyndaquil}} instead and has it use its {{m|Flamethrower}} attack on the giant Meowth. The inside of the robot gets very hot, so Meowth tries to cool it down, but instead accidentally shoots the tail of the robot as a missile... with Granbull still latched on! Madam Muchmoney tries stopping the missile with her own hands but crashes into a tree with Granbull. The Pokémon finally lets go of the robot's tail and falls to the ground. <br /> <br /> Madame Muchmoney asks Granbull if she's okay and states that the two of them will battle Team Rocket together. However, Team Rocket is ready for the attack. She orders Granbull to use {{m|Take Down}} while Meowth fires the robot's hands as missiles. Granbull then uses Tackle and Team Rocket gets knocked back. Finally, Granbull uses {{m|DynamicPunch}} and knocks out the Meowth's TV monitor.<br /> <br /> At this point, the robot goes haywire and crashes into a tree. Pikachu destroys it with Thunderbolt and Team Rocket gets blasted off again. Madame Muchmoney hugs Granbull, telling her that they will be a great team. Granbull, Madame Muchmoney, and Jeeves all decide to have a race home, and Ash and Misty agree that Granbull wasn't the only one who evolved that day.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * The {{p|Snubbull}} that has been following {{TRT}} around [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{TP|Madame Muchmoney|Granbull}}.<br /> * Granbull returns to her {{pkmn|Trainer|owner}}, [[Madame Muchmoney]].<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> =====TV episode debuts=====<br /> * {{p|Granbull}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:Dare da EP175.png|200px|thumb|right|{{tt|Dare da?|Who's That Pokémon?}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Madame Muchmoney]]<br /> * [[Jeeves]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP175.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Hitmonlee}} ''(U.S. and international)'', {{p|Snubbull}} ({{OP|Madame Muchmoney|Granbull}}) ''(Japan)''<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Cyndaquil}} ({{OP|Ash|Cyndaquil}})<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}})<br /> * {{p|Weezing}} ({{OP|James|Weezing}})<br /> * {{p|Snubbull}} ({{OP|Madame Muchmoney|Granbull}}, evolves)<br /> * {{p|Granbull}} ({{OP|Madame Muchmoney|Granbull}}, newly evolved)<br /> * {{p|Mankey}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * In this episode, Team Rocket uses a {{DL|Team Rocket mottos|Trouble With Snubbull motto|variation}} of their motto.<br /> * This episode's English title may be a reference to the ''Star Trek'' episode ''{{wp|The Trouble with Tribbles}}''.<br /> * At the end, James cries, &quot;Why did our plan go wrong?&quot; Meowth replies, &quot;You know what they say about the best-laid plans of Meowth and men, Jimmy!&quot; This is a pun on the Standard English translation of the famous line from {{wp|Robert Burns}}'s ''{{wp|To a Mouse}}'': &quot;The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men/Gang aft agley,...&quot;<br /> * The episode premiered in Japan on [[Rica Matsumoto]]'s 32nd birthday.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * When Madame Muchmoney wants to get Snubbull's head examined, Nurse Joy says &quot;I wonder if I should bring Snubbull to the Pokémon Center so I can run some tests on it?&quot; despite the fact that they are already in the Pokémon Center.<br /> * When Ash tells Cyndaquil to use Flamethrower, the flame on Cyndaquil's back isn't ignited.<br /> * At the end of the episode, Brock's backpack straps are colored green instead of black.<br /> * The bows on Snubbull's ears also glow during evolution despite they are not part of her body.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * The original airing of this episode on Hungama TV in {{pmin|India}} started the episode directly from the title card, skipping the part of the episode that comes before it.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Epilang|color=DDDDDD|bordercolor=FFCB49<br /> |zh_cmn={{tt|喵喵跟布盧跟布盧皇|Meowth, Snubbull, and Granbull}}<br /> |cs={{tt|Trable se Snubbull|The trouble with Snubbull}}<br /> |nl={{tt|Problemen met Snubbull|Troubles with Snubbull}}<br /> |de={{tt|Nur Ärger mit Snubull|Only trouble with Snubbull}}<br /> |fi={{tt|Vaikeuksien kautta voittoon|Through difficulties to the victory}} {{tt|*|This title was used again as the Finnish title of the episode DP119 - Trials and Adulations!}}<br /> |fr_eu={{tt|Les ennuis de l'évolution|The troubles of evolution}}<br /> |he=צרות עם סנאבולית {{tt|tsarot im Snubbullit|Trouble with Snubbull}}<br /> |it={{tt|Il Pokémon ritrovato|The recovered Pokémon}}<br /> |pt_br={{tt|A Encrenca com o Snubbull|The Trouble with the Snubbull}}<br /> |pt_eu={{tt|Sarilhos com a Snubbull|Trouble with the Snubbull}}<br /> |es_la={{tt|¡El problema con Snubbull!| The trouble with Snubbull!}}<br /> |es_eu={{tt|El problema con Snubbull| The trouble with Snubbull}}<br /> |pl={{tt|Kłopoty ze Snubbullem|Troubles with Snubbull}}<br /> |sv={{tt|Snubbull trubbel|Snubbull trouble}}<br /> |hi=Snubbull और ट्रबल {{tt|''Snubbull aur Trouble''|Snubbull and Trouble}} {{tt|*|Hungama dub}}<br /> }}<br /> <br /> {{EpicodePrevNext|<br /> prevcode=EP174 |<br /> prevtitle=Imitation Confrontation |<br /> nextcode=EP176 |<br /> nexttitle=Ariados, Amigos |<br /> series=Original series |<br /> colorscheme=Johto | }}<br /> {{Project Anime notice}}<br /> [[Category:Original series episodes|175]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes written by Junki Takegami|175]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes storyboarded and directed by Osamu Inoue|175]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes storyboarded by Osamu Inoue|175]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes directed by Osamu Inoue|175]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes animated by Masafumi Satō|175]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Nur Ärger mit Snubbull]]<br /> [[fr:EP175]]<br /> [[ja:無印編第175話]]<br /> [[pl:EP175]]<br /> [[zh:EP176]]</div>

(Japanese: '''マンタインとちんぼつせん！！なぞのポケモンのひみつ！''' ''{{tt|Mantain|Mantine}} and the Sunken Ship!! The Secret of the Mysterious Pokémon!''), is the 214th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on September 6, 2001 and in the United States on October 12, 2002.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_05-mantine-overboard/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Our heroes narrowly miss the ferry to Redrock Isle, but are fortunate enough to bump into a Pokémon researcher and a deep-sea diver who offers to carry them across the strait in her boat. En route they learn of a longstanding goal she is just now attempting to reach—her great-grandfather had made a valuable discovery, but been discredited when the find was lost in a shipwreck, the location of which she has only recently discovered. Excited by her tale, the young Pokémon Trainers decide to accompany her in a dive down to the ruined ship and witness as she recovers the article that will restore her great-grandfather's honor in the scientific community. Their attempts to approach the sunken ship, however, are routed by an aggressive Mantine and a number of Remoraid. In order to take up her great-grandfather's legacy, this researcher, with the help of Ash and friends, must first explain the strange defensive behavior of these Pokémon.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> It seems as if {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} now are in a hurry for something, and they are. They try to make it to the dock to catch the next ferry to the next island, but it's too late, the boat is already long gone. {{an|Misty}} asks a local sailor when the next ferry will come, the reply being tomorrow. They sulk for a while, what are they going to do for a day? A girl comes by with scuba equipment and takes notice of them and asks what's wrong. Misty replies and {{an|Brock}} butts in with his usual act. The girl tells them her name, [[Luka]]. Luka says that she'll give Ash and his friends a ride to the next island since she's going out to sea anyways. {{TRT}}, spying on them in their [[Team Rocket's mechas|Magikarp submarine]], decides to follow them and see what they're up to.<br /> <br /> On the boat, Ash goes to where the wheel is and notices a picture of a map of the ocean with a noticeable X in the middle. Ash asks Luka what the picture of the map is about, she says that it's the spot where a ship had sunk with a valuable in it. This catches Ash and Brock's attention, asking things like &quot;is it gold?&quot; and such. Luka thinks it's the [[Silver and Rainbow Wings|Silver Wing]]. She shows them another picture of a man, her grandfather. She explains that he lead an expedition to find the sunken ship and the Silver Wing, but hadn't come back since. She looked at his notes and finally determined where the sunken ship was. Ash offers to help with finding the ship, after all, why not? Luka accepts the offer and soon they get ready to go underwater.<br /> <br /> Luka releases three {{p|Magikarp}} as their guides and she and Ash go underwater. {{AP|Pikachu}} tries to do the same, but Brock stops Pikachu before he can jump in. Underwater seemed to be another world of its own. When they got to the ship, Luka sent the Magikarp to scout. All of a sudden a {{p|Mantine}} approaches the Magikarp and scares them off like he is guarding the place. Looks like they won't get anywhere near the ship if the Mantine is guarding it. They resurface for some thinking. They come up with a plan that Pikachu should go with them and shock Mantine so it wouldn't be much of a problem. So Ash, Luka, and Pikachu dive into the water towards the sunken ship. This time, Ash and Pikachu scout out to lure the Mantine and possibly try to get Pikachu to shock it. While the Mantine is after Ash, Luka goes right ahead into a breach to explore, but she soon notices a strange light. Meanwhile, Pikachu gets a successful grab on Mantine and is about to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but is shot at by a {{p|Remoraid}}. Looks like the same fate for Luka as well. Now they know they have two obstacles to tackle, Mantine and Remoraid.<br /> <br /> Though it seems almost a no chance to get the Silver Wing, Ash and Misty decide on using their {{t|Water}} Pokémon and see if they can fight their way in. Ash calls out {{AP|Totodile}}, Misty using {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}, and {{TP|Misty|Corsola}}. {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} comes out on its own and splashes around frantically because it couldn't swim. Brock pulled it back up with a lifesaver. Ash, Misty, Pikachu, and Luka soon go into the water, again for the boat. However, when they get to the boat, there seems to be a fight already. Team Rocket's sub was caught by Mantine and they got caught in a {{pkmn|battle}}. Using this, the party just zips right into the ship. Ash, Misty, and Luka split up to find anything. Luka notices something and looks behind a wall, seeing a bunch of Remoraid children surrounding something. Ash and Misty come over to see.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket soon tries to smash into the Mantine but ends up smashing into the boat. The shock causes all the Remoraid children to scatter, exposing the small chest. Luka picks it up and they head back... but it looks like they ran right into Team Rocket's sub! They begin off with their {{motto}} on a projection and then swipe the chest and goes off. Mantine catches Team Rocket and again they go into a fight. However, Team Rocket uses a tongue-like thing to try to restrain Mantine. The Remoraid helpers shoot the tongue and Mantine breaks free. But it's not the end, Team Rocket launches a net and traps Mantine and the Remoraid. Ash and Misty have Totodile, Staryu, and Corsola tear open the net. They do but Team Rocket already makes a fast retreat. Ash tries to catch up with them but can't. Soon Mantine comes by to help and Ash gets on it. Mantine soon catches up with the sub and Pikachu goes over to one eye, knocking on it. Team Rocket looks on their screen and sees Pikachu on their little monitor. Pikachu electrocutes his foes to blast them off. The chest falls but Mantine, with Ash still on it, jumps out of the water into the air and Ash catches the chest.<br /> <br /> Luka thanks the Mantine and Remoraid for their help and the Water Pokémon swim off. She opens up the chest, only revealing a box. She opens the box and finds the Silver Wing resting in it. She picks it up and they look at its radiance for a while.

It was first broadcast in Japan on December 23, 1999 and in the United States on December 2, 2000. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/03_22-once-in-a-blue-moon/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Professor Oak's errand—to deliver the mysterious GS Ball to a Poké Ball expert—is interrupted when a Quagsire with a penchant for spherical objects steals the GS Ball for use in a nocturnal ritual.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} continue make their way to [[Violet City]] so Ash can earn his first [[Johto League]] [[Badge]], but along the way the trio take a rest in [[Cherrygrove City]]. After polishing his [[Poké Ball]]s and the mysterious [[GS Ball]], Ash leaves them by the river as he runs to eat, but then, a {{p|Quagsire}} appears from the water. Misty attempts to catch it, but {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} comes out instead and appears to have a mental connection with the Quagsire, much like it had in ''[[EP066|The Evolution Solution]]'' with [[Professor Westwood V]]'s {{p|Slowpoke}}.<br /> <br /> As Misty tries to get Psyduck's attention, Quagsire steals the GS Ball and swims away. Ash tries to run after it, but ends up sending out {{AP|Squirtle}} to chase it down. After failing to wrestle it out of the Quagsire's mouth, Squirtle uses {{m|Water Gun}}, it slips out of Quagsire's mouth, and {{AP|Pikachu}} is able to catch it on the shore. While both Quagsire and Squirtle are using Water Gun against each other, Misty tries once again to catch it, but before throwing the Poké Ball, [[Officer Jenny]] stops them and arrests them for violating the Quagsire Preservation Restrictions.<br /> <br /> Back at the station, Officer Jenny calls {{an|Professor Oak}}, who explains that he forgot to mention the restrictions to the {{ashfr|group}}. Officer Jenny drops the charges and explains that the Quagsire are very special to the people of Cherrygrove City because they help identify the cleanest water in the area, and the reason that the Quagsire took Ash's GS Ball was because it was round, and during this time of year, the Quagsire take round objects, swim upstream with them, and then send the round things down the river again; these objects are said to be good luck, especially the last thing to float down the river. <br /> <br /> Ash then sees another Quagsire outside of the station, staring at his GS Ball. After being rejected the opportunity to take the Ball up the river, the Quagsire follows Ash to a bridge, where it {{m|Tackle|tackles}} Ash. In an attempt to get the Quagsire off him, Ash sends out {{AP|Chikorita}}, who successfully knocks away the Quagsire by spinning the leaf on her head. It is then discovered that Chikorita has a crush on Ash. Quagsire comes up from behind Ash, and Chikorita knocks it off again. In the process, however, the GS Ball falls out of Ash's [[bag|backpack]]. Quagsire catches it and begins to swim upstream with the Ball. <br /> <br /> In another area, {{TRT}} has lost track of Ash and his friends, so [[James]] is trying to map out where they might be. [[Jessie]] notices that {{MTR}} is playing with a lawn ornament, and Meowth tells her that there's a whole bunch of stuff in a field nearby. The three are startled by a Quagsire who comes and takes the lawn ornament from Meowth. Jessie, annoyed that they would take away Meowth's toy, tries to send out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}, but two more Quagsire take her Poké Balls before she can send them out. The same happens with James's {{TP|James|Weezing}} and {{TP|James|Victreebel}}. <br /> <br /> While both Ash's party and Team Rocket chase after their stolen Poké Balls, Ash's Party notices the group of Quagsire with Team Rocket's Poké Balls and follows them in hopes of finding the GS Ball. Unaware that they are following Ash's party, Team Rocket chases the same group of Quagsire from a longer distance away. <br /> <br /> The Quagsire stop migrating at a place called Blue Moon Falls, but there are no waterfalls here. Ash spots the Quagsire with the GS Ball and decides to keep an eye on it so it doesn't lose the Ball. On the other side of the pond, Team Rocket spies on them and devises a plan to catch Pikachu and the Quagsire, but Ash's party is noticing something else:<br /> <br /> The Quagsire are all staring into the sky, as if they're waiting for something to happen, but just as they begin to wonder what they might be doing, Team Rocket snatches up a Quagsire with a claw installed on their [[Team Rocket's mechas|hot air balloon]], but the Quagsire easily slip from the metal claws, so they cast a net over the school of Quagsire, but just as they begin to fly away, Jessie remembers that they still don't have their Pokémon. Before they get their Poké Balls, Team Rocket catches Pikachu with the claw, but before they can get away, some of the uncaptured Quagsire begin to hurl rocks at Team Rocket's balloon, which causes the claw to drop Pikachu. <br /> <br /> With Pikachu back, Ash sends out {{AP|Bulbasaur}} to use {{m|Razor Leaf}} on the net. After the Quagsire are released, a large rock is thrown at the balloon, sending Team Rocket blasting off again. After Team Rocket left, the Quagsire continue staring at the sky like before, and something triggers them to start swimming upstream again, and naturally, Ash and his friends follow. They find the Quagsire at ''the'' Blue Moon Falls, where they see that tonight, the moon is actually blue. Then, the Quagsire throw their round things into the air and use water gun on them to send them flying over the waterfall, and then flow back down. Brock suggest that they do this as a competition to see who can get it closest to the moon. A Quagsire with Ash's GS Ball shoots it the highest than the rest of them. Then the GS Ball comes down and begins to flow downstream, where Ash instinctively rushes after it. <br /> <br /> Back in town, the rest of the townsfolk gather their belongings as they float down the river. And, luckiest of all, Ash's GS Ball floats down the river as the last item, which Officer Jenny scoops up and hands to Ash as he catches his breath. This renews Ash's belief that he can come out on top in the Johto League.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts==== <br /> * {{p|Quagsire}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:Dare da EP127.png|thumb|200px|right|{{tt|Dare da?|Who's That Pokémon?}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Officer Jenny]]<br /> * {{an|Professor Oak}}<br /> * Townspeople of [[Cherrygrove City]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP127.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Ledyba}} ''(U.S. and international)''; {{p|Quagsire}} ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Bulbasaur}} ({{OP|Ash|Bulbasaur}})<br /> * {{p|Squirtle}} ({{OP|Ash|Squirtle}})<br /> * {{p|Chikorita}} ({{OP|Ash|Chikorita}})<br /> * {{p|Psyduck}} ({{OP|Misty|Psyduck}})<br /> * {{p|Butterfree}}<br /> * {{p|Quagsire}} (multiple; debut)<br /> {{right clear}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This episode's English title is a reference to the popular saying, &quot;{{wp|Blue moon|Once in a blue moon}}.&quot;<br /> * The book [[Battle for the Zephyr Badge]] is based on this episode.<br /> * Team Rocket makes a {{wp|Wizard of Oz}} reference when Jessie says, &quot;But when we do, we'll take care of the twerps, and that slimy Pokémon too!&quot;<br /> * In the dub, Brock's line &quot;Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor glue, nor {{p|Vileplume}} will stay this Pokémon breeder&quot; is a reference to the unofficial {{wp|United States Postal Service creed|USPS postal creed}}.<br /> * During the waterfall scene in the dub, the music in the background is an instrumental of [[Everything Changes]].<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> [[File:EP127 Error.png|thumb|200px|Officer Jenny without her gloves‎]]<br /> * When Brock is holding Officer Jenny's hands, she has no gloves.<br /> * One of the balls the Quagsire is holding changes color from red to pink.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Epilang|color=DDDDDD|bordercolor=FFCB49<br /> |zh_cmn={{tt|沼王和GS球|Quagsire and the GS Ball}}<br /> |nl={{tt|Op Een Blauwe Maandag|On A Blue Monday}}<br /> |cs={{tt|Setkání u Modrých vodopádů|Meeting at Blue Falls}}<br /> |de={{tt|Das Geheimnis des Morlord|The Secret of the Quagsire}}<br /> |fi={{tt|Sinisen kuun arvoitus|Mystery of the blue moon}}<br /> |fr_eu={{tt|Rituel annuel|Annual ritual}}<br /> |he=מפל הירח הכחול{{tt|mapal hayare'ach hakachol|The Blue Moon Fall}}<br /> |hu={{tt|A holdkóros Pokémonok|A lunatic Pokémon}}<br /> |it={{tt|Cerimonia al chiaro di luna|Ceremony at the moonlight}}{{tt|*|Original 2000 dub}} &lt;br&gt; {{tt|Le cascate di Blue Moon|Blue Moon Waterfalls}}{{tt|*|2014 K2 TV dub}}<br /> |ko=누오, GS볼을 돌려줘! {{tt|nuo, GSbol-eul dollyeojwo!|Quagsire, Give Me Back the GS Ball!}}<br /> |pt_br={{tt|Era Uma Vez um Luar Azul|Once Upon a Time a Blue Moonlight}}<br /> |pt_eu={{tt|Uma Vez na Lua Azul|Once in the Blue Moon}}<br /> |es_la={{tt|¡La cascada de la luna azul!|Blue moon's cascade!}}<br /> |es_eu={{tt|Una vez en luna llena|Once in a full moon}}<br /> |sv={{tt|Bollsinne|Ball mind, lit.

It first aired in Japan on January 17, 2002 and in the United States on September 26, 2002. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_23-just-waiting-on-a-friend/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Our heroes are traveling over a mountain pass when inclement weather occasions a stay in a lodge located conveniently nearby. Brock is very taken with the hospitable caretaker of the lodge and her Ninetales, but his friends grow increasingly suspicious of her as they notice, and unsuccessfully try to point out to Brock, vague warning signs—her being distant and distracted, her preoccupation with the past, her not reflecting in mirrors—that she is not in fact his dream girl. Brock will have none of it, though, and eagerly accepts her proposal of marriage, even as the lodge itself grows increasingly sinister.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> On the way to [[Mahogany Town]], {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and {{TP|Ash|Pikachu}} find themselves lost in a heavy fog. After Ash and Brock accidentally fall off a ledge, they realize that they won't be able to continue until the fog lifts and resign themselves to a long wait. However, just when they begin to set up camp, a mysterious girl named [[Lokoko]] comes out of the mist, accompanied by a {{p|Ninetales}}. Lokoko tells them that they can wait out the fog at her house and invites them to follow her. Love struck, Brock immediately accepts her offer, Ash and Misty follow along behind. Nearby, [[Jessie]], [[James]], {{MTR}} and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} notice Lokoko leading the &quot;[[twerp]]s&quot; away. They decide to follow them and steal both Ninetales and Pikachu.<br /> <br /> Lokoko leads Ash and {{ashfr}} to a gigantic mansion, decorated in a feudal Japanese style. She invites them to the mansion's dining area and serves them a delicious meal made out of fruit. Brock begins flirting with her and to Misty's surprise Lokoko begins flirting back. She asks Lokoko if she's the only one living in this mansion, which causes Lokoko to tell her the mansion's story. The mansion was originally owned by a man, the original Trainer of Ninetales. However, he left on a long journey and has yet to return. The other servants in the mansion eventually left for other places, leaving Lokoko and Ninetales as the only inhabitants of the mansion. Touched by her story, Brock offers to stay with Lokoko forever. To everybody's shock Lokoko accepts his offer and agrees to marry him.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile {{TRT}} succeeds in sneaking into the mansion. They decide to put off capturing Pokémon for a bit, and instead look for something to eat. Exploring some of the mansions storehouses, they find that the first room they explore is filled with treasure- an entire room filled with delicious cookies!<br /> <br /> Back in the dining room, Misty tries to talk some sense into Brock. As she looks around the room she suddenly notices that Lokoko leaves no reflection in the room's cabinet mirror. When she points it out to Lokoko, the doors to the cabinet suddenly slam shut, as if pushed by an invisible hand. Misty becomes frightened and tries to convince Brock to leave with her and Ash, but Brock refuses to listen. Brock runs towards Lokoko to hug her and to both Ash and Misty's terror, falls right through her body! Brock doesn't seem to notice this and Misty realizes that he's been put into a daze. Along with Ash she tries to knock some sense into him, but all it does is make him angry. Lokoko tells Brock to wait outside for her and after he's left she turns her attention to Ash and Misty. Angrily she tells them that if they want to leave so badly, then they can go without Brock. Using a strange power, Ninetales levitates both Ash and Misty off the ground and throws them out of the mansion.<br /> <br /> [[File:Lokoko Poké Ball anime.png|Ninetales' 200+ year old [[Poké Ball]].|thumb|200px]] Fearful for Brock's safety, Ash and Misty quickly sneak back into the mansion and begin exploring. They soon find a room that used to belong to the owner. Hanging above the desk is a portrait of the owner, who looks almost exactly like Brock. The desk also has two objects on it, Ninetales's [[Poké Ball]] (an incredibly old model, intricately made out of expensive materials) and the owner's diary. Paging through the diary for clues, they learn that there was once a man who owned this mansion who left and never returned and to their horror, they discover that the last entry was made over 200 years ago! If Lokoko has been waiting for the owner for 200 years, then she must be a ghost! They rush outside and see Brock relaxing with Lokoko and Ninetales. As they watch, Brock's clothes suddenly change to the ones the owner was wearing in his portrait. Realizing that the spell over Brock is being maintained by Ninetales, Ash calls out {{TP|Ash|Totodile}} and orders it to attack Ninetales with {{m|Water Gun}}. Though the attack misses Ninetales, it hits Lokoko and passes right through her, causing Brock to see her for what she actually is. The spell over him broken, Brock returns to normal. Furthermore the mansion itself begins to decay, revealing that its grand appearance was just an illusion over a long abandoned ruin.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket, who is still chowing in the storehouse suddenly realizes that all they've been eating were tree leaves, which were disguised as food by Ninetales's power. Ash and his friends race through the mansion, pursued by Ninetales. It eventually corners them in the owner's study. Ash tries to battle it with Totodile and Pikachu, but Ninetales easily defeats them using its telekinesis. Noticing the Poké Ball on the table, Brock picks it up and orders Ninetales to return. Confusing Brock for its owner, Ninetales happily jumps into the ball. Lokoko reappears and reveals that she is an illusion created by Ninetales, much to Brock's disappointment. She then tells them the real story of the mansion. Over 200 years ago, the owner of the mansion left on a journey. Though he promised he'd be back in a month, he never returned. Over time the servants who worked in the mansion began to leave, each sadly bidding Ninetales farewell, one by one until Ninetales was eventually left alone. Though Ninetales waited patiently, losing track of time, it came to realize that a century had passed; it knew its owner could not possibly still be alive. It tried to leave the mansion, but found that it was bound by some sort of power centered around its Poké Ball. Trapped in the mansion, it continued to wait, its power growing stronger and stronger as time passed on. Over two hundred years after its master had left, Ninetales sensed Brock's presence. Since Brock looked almost exactly like its late owner, Ninetales decided to lure him to the mansion and trap him, so Brock could take over as Ninetales' new Trainer.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, Team Rocket appears and captures Ninetales in a net. Angry over being tricked into eating leaves, they've decided to capture Ninetales and deliver it to their boss. {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Victreebel}} are sent out, with Victreebel latching on James. Ash has {{TP|Ash|Bayleef}}'s {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut the net open. A {{m|Poison Sting}} from Arbok is sent back to the balloon with Ninetales' telekinesis. After freeing himself, James threw Victreebel down to attack Brock, only for Ninetales to knock Brock down in time, while letting loose of the old Poké Ball and shattering it. Bayleef uses Tackle to send Arbok and Victreebel back to the balloon, and Team Rocket is quickly sent &quot;blasting off again&quot; with Ninetales' {{m|Flamethrower}} and Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}.<br /> <br /> With the old Poké Ball shattered, Ninetales is released from the spell that had trapped it in the mansion. Finally free, Ninetales goes off to explore the world. As Ash and his friends prepare to continue their journey, they are met one last time by Lokoko, who thanks them for helping Ninetales before disappearing.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP232.png|thumb|right|200px|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Lokoko]]<br /> * Mansion owner (photo and flashback)<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP232.png|thumb|200px|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Sudowoodo}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Ninetales}} ''(Japan)''<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Bayleef}} ({{OP|Ash|Bayleef}})<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}})<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}})<br /> * {{p|Victreebel}} ({{OP|James|Victreebel}})<br /> * {{p|Ninetales}} (Mansion owner's)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This episode features references to the myths of {{wp|kitsune}} that {{p|Ninetales}} was based upon.<br /> ** This episode could also be a reference to {{wp|Hachikō}}, the dog well-known for his loyalty to his owner, even years after his death.<br /> * This episode aired between ''[[EP227|For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!]]'' and ''[[EP228|Extreme Pokémon!]]'' in the dub.<br /> * Music from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' and ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' can be heard in this episode.<br /> ** Interestingly, in the dub, Ninetales says of its master that he was no longer &quot;of this Earth&quot;, a phrase similar to one {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}} repeated in both ''Mewtwo Strikes Back'' and ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]''.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * In the English dub, Brock claims that he had a Ninetales of his own, but the {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} that he temporarily acquired from [[Suzie]] never evolved into {{p|Ninetales}}.<br /> ** However, this could be a possible reference to [[Brock|his game counterpart]] who has a Ninetales in Round 2 of {{Eng|Pokémon Stadium}}.<br /> * When Team Rocket is looking at the second door, the sound of a Poké Ball opening is heard though Wobbuffet is already out of his Poké Ball.<br /> * In the scene right after Brock falls down the cliff, Ash first appears on top of the cliff he had fallen off of, and then stands next to Brock at the foot of the cliff, as if Ash teleported.<br /> * When Team Rocket captures Ninetales, parts of the net have disappeared.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * In the English version, Lokoko explains that when the master went away and never came back, the servants disappeared, but in the Japanese version, they had left or died.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Epilang|color=DDDDDD|bordercolor=FFCB49<br /> |zh_cmn={{tt|霧中的九尾|The Ninetales in the Fog}}<br /> |nl={{tt|En Maar Wachten op een Vriend|Just Waiting on a Friend}}<br /> |de={{tt|Vulnona im Nebel|Ninetales in the fog}}<br /> |fr_eu={{tt|Un seul être vous manque...|You miss only one being...}}''' {{tt|*|from a citation from Alphonse de Lamartine: Un seul être vous manque, et tout est dépeuplé.}}<br /> |he=אחוזה בערפל{{tt|akhuza ba'arafel|A mansion in fog}}<br /> |it={{tt|Un'attesa infinita|An endless waiting}}<br /> |pt_br={{tt|Esperando um Amigo|Waiting a Friend}}<br /> |pt_eu={{tt|À Espera de um Amigo|Waiting for a Friend}}<br /> |es_la={{tt|¡Esperando a un amigo!|Waiting for a friend!}}<br /> |es_eu={{tt|Esperando a un amigo|Waiting for a friend}}<br /> |pl={{tt|Czekając na przyjaciół|Waiting for friends}}<br /> |hi=एक लंबा इंतेज़ार {{tt|''Ek lamba intezaar''|A long wait}} {{tt|*|Hungama dub}}<br /> }}<br /> {{-}}<br /> {{EpicodePrevNext|<br /> prevcode=EP231 |<br /> prevtitle=Dues and Don'ts |<br /> nextcode=EP233 |<br /> nexttitle=A Tyrogue Full of Trouble |<br /> series=Original series |<br /> colorscheme=Johto}}<br /> {{Project Anime notice}}<br /> <br /> [[Category:Original series episodes|232]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes written by Shōji Yonemura|232]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes storyboarded by Kazu Yokota|232]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes directed by Shigeru Ōmachi|232]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes animated by Yumenosuke Tokuda|232]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes focusing on Brock|232]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Vulnona im Nebel]]<br /> [[fr:EP232]]<br /> [[it:EP232]]<br /> [[ja:無印編第232話]]<br /> [[pl:EP232]]<br /> [[zh:EP233]]</div>

It was first broadcast in Japan on January 10, 2002 and in the United States on January 25, 2003. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/tv-episodes/season-5/episode-22-05_22-dues-and-donts/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;As Jessie, James, and Meowth track Ash and friends, they commiserate over past failures and discuss how they are paired unfairly against these younger trainers with such a superior array of Pokémon. They no sooner decide anew to catch as many Pokémon as possible and strengthen their own forces than a Delibird shows up. After finally capturing it, they are disappointed to learn that the Pokémon already has a trainer—a Team Rocket scout, no less, who is using the Delibird to test the abilities of promising new talent. Sensing their natural aptitudes toward crime, the scout offers Jessie and James positions within Team Rocket. These two assert that they are already members, to which the scout replies by accessing their Team Rocket personnel files and proving that they have been expelled from the organization. Shocked, Jessie and James set desperately to garnering some success that will earn them reentry into their beloved Team Rocket.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> On the road to [[Mahogany Town]], {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} are attacked by [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}. After a brief scuffle involving an exploding football, the Rocket Trio is sent blasting off as usual. After a painful landing, the Rockets discuss their most recent failure and try to figure out why they can never beat the &quot;[[twerps]]&quot;. They eventually reach the conclusion that the reason lies in the fact that the twerps have a large amount of Pokémon to battle them with, while they only have five, including Meowth. In order to increase their capabilities, the Rockets decide that their first goal should be to capture more Pokémon!<br /> <br /> Their wish soon comes true when they find an apparently abandoned {{p|Delibird}}. A tape recording near the Delibird says that it was abandoned by its trainer, and is free to anybody able to catch it. Seizing their opportunity, Jessie and James battle with the Delibird. After a gruelling battle, they succeed in defeating it. However, before they can catch it, an old woman comes out of the woods and introduces herself as the Delibird's trainer. She tells them that she's a scout for {{TRT}} and by defeating Delibird in battle, they've passed her test. They're now eligible to join Team Rocket themselves!<br /> <br /> Jessie and James explain to the woman that they're already members of Team Rocket. When she refuses to believe them, they look up their names in Team Rocket's member registry. Looking through it, they find that their worst fears have finally come true — they've been disbanded from Team Rocket! The Rocket Scout explains that their membership was revoked because of their unpaid dues and the constant loans they've taken out. But, she tells them, if they prove themselves to her, she should be able to get them reinstated, and get them a hefty signing bonus as well. Their mission? To defeat a wandering band of Pokémon Trainers, who turn out to be none other then the twerps! Jessie and James tell the scout, that although Ash and his friends look weak, they're actually skilled trainers, and that with their current Pokémon they'll be unable to beat them. After thinking for a moment, the Scout agrees to let them borrow their Delibird. With a new and powerful Pokémon on their side, Team Rocket gets ready to attack, sure of their coming victory.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile {{an|Giovanni}}, the leader of Team Rocket receives a phone call from {{OBP|Wendy|EP231}}, a member of Team Rocket's H.R. department. Wendy tells him that Jessie and James are trying to get their membership back, and suggests that he refuse to let them rejoin. Giovanni tells her that he has no problem letting them rejoin, so long as they pay Team Rocket the money they owe. With that said he hangs up on Wendy, leaving her to fume back at her desk. In a flashback we see that Wendy has a long standing grudge against Jessie, from an incident where she left her with a bill for a fruit smoothie. Angry that she couldn't get Jessie kicked out of the Team for good Wendy swears that she'll eventually get her revenge.<br /> <br /> Back in [[Johto]] Ash and his friends are met on the road by a pair of wandering Samurai. They quickly reveal themselves to be Jessie and James in disguise, and challenge the twerps to a battle. Expecting them to use their normal Pokémon Ash calls out his {{AP|Phanpy}}. To his surprise Team Rocket bring out Delibird, who easily defeats Phanpy with its {{m|Blizzard}} attack. Using its {{m|Present}} ability, Delibird hits Ash and friends with a surprise attack. Angered Ash calls out Pikachu, but finds that Delibird's Present is too much for Pikachu to handle. Ash tries to retreat, but no matter where him or his friends go Delibird is always there with another explosive present. Delighted at their success Jessie and James order Delibird to finish the twerps off, but to their surprise the next present restores Pikachu to full health. Taking control of the fight Ash orders Pikachu to attack, and Team Rocket finds itself &quot;blasting off again&quot;.<br /> <br /> After landing, Jessie and James are met again by the Rocket Scout, who reclaims her Delibird. She tells them that even though they lost the fight, Team Rocket is suffering a severe labor shortage (due to most of its members getting arrested) and that she's still going to register them again. The pair eagerly wait for their signing bonus, but find themselves hit with a bill instead, their bonus having helped pay all of the money they owe. At the bottom of the list is a surprise, a bill for a fruit smoothie courtesy of Wendy. The Scout tells them that every month Delibird will come to collect some of the money they owe, and that they should resume their work as Rockets.<br /> <br /> Despite all of their bills, Jessie, James, and Meowth take a moment to celebrate. Their cheers are so loud that even Ash and his friends hear it on the nearby road.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> *[[Jessie]] and [[James]] renew their membership with [[Team Rocket]].<br /> *A {{OBP|Delibird|Team Rocket}} sent from Team Rocket begins to follow Jessie and James.<br /> *[[Ash's Phanpy]] is revealed to know {{m|Take Down}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> =====TV episode debuts=====<br /> *{{p|Delibird}} ([[Delibird (Team Rocket)|Team Rocket]])<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP231.png|thumb|right|200px|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> *{{Ash}}<br /> *{{an|Misty}}<br /> *{{an|Brock}}<br /> *[[Jessie]]<br /> *[[James]]<br /> *{{an|Giovanni}}<br /> *[[Rocket Scout]]<br /> *{{OBP|Wendy|EP231}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Smeargle}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Delibird}} ''(Japan)''<br /> [[File:WTP EP231.png|thumb|200px|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Bayleef}} ({{OP|Ash|Bayleef}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Cyndaquil}} ({{OP|Ash|Cyndaquil}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Noctowl}} ({{OP|Ash|Noctowl}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Phanpy}} ({{OP|Ash|Phanpy}})<br /> * {{p|Goldeen}} ({{OP|Misty|Goldeen}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Staryu}} ({{OP|Misty|Staryu}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Psyduck}} ({{OP|Misty|Psyduck}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Poliwhirl}} ({{OP|Misty|Poliwhirl}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Corsola}} ({{OP|Misty|Corsola}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Onix}} ({{OP|Brock|Onix}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Geodude}} ({{OP|Brock|Geodude}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Crobat}} ({{OP|Brock|Crobat}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Pineco}} ({{OP|Brock|Pineco}}; symbolic image)<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}})<br /> * {{p|Weezing}} ({{OP|James|Weezing}})<br /> * {{p|Victreebel}} ({{OP|James|Victreebel}})<br /> * {{p|Delibird}} ([[Delibird (Team Rocket)|Team Rocket]], debut)<br /> * {{p|Persian}} ({{OP|Giovanni|Persian}})<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Jessie briefly talks about two other criminal teams &quot;Team Jet&quot; and &quot;Team Helicopter&quot; in this episode.

It was first broadcast in Japan on December 27, 2001 and in the United States on January 18, 2003.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/tv-episodes/season-5/episode-21-05_21-hatching-a-plan/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;At long last Ash's egg hatches, a Phanpy emerging to finally put everyone's curiosity to rest. Ash and friends' excitement is matched only by that of Jessie and James of Team Rocket, who see in the newly hatched Pokemon a chance to redeem themselves with Giovanni. Full of youthful vigor, the Phanpy quickly escapes Ash and goes off on its own, now pursued by both Team Rocket and Ash's party. Ash and Pikachu finally set out together after this stray Pokémon and continue to be frustrated in attempt after attempt at its capture.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> While camping out for the night, {{an|Misty}} notices a light coming out of Ash's [[bag|backpack]]. {{Ash}} gets out the [[egg case]] because the {{pkmn|Egg}} is starting to hatch. They all wonder what might hatch out of the Egg. {{TRT}}, who plans on stealing the Pokémon, waits nearby. The Egg hatches into a {{p|Phanpy}}! Ash checks it out with Dexter and wonders where its Poké Ball is. Brock reminds him that the Poké Ball is on the case, so he takes it and tries to return Phanpy, who jumps out of the way. Ash tries again, but Phanpy continues to dodge the beam. Brock suggests that some food might convince Phanpy to listen. Ash gets out some food, but before the Phanpy could get to it, Team Rocket snatches it with a hand. Pikachu shocks them with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and hits Phanpy as well. Team Rocket blasts off, and Phanpy is still a little shocked from the jolt. Pikachu tries to comfort it but a spark sends Phanpy running. Ash tries to run after Phanpy without luck. <br /> <br /> The group splits up in search of Phanpy. Brock leaves some food out to attract it when a bush near him wiggles about. Brock grabs at it; however, it ends up being [[Misty's Psyduck]], with a mouthful of Brock's food. Ash and Pikachu look about, but Pikachu feels completely at fault. Ash comforts Pikachu, knowing they'll find Phanpy eventually. <br /> <br /> Deeper in the woods, Phanpy runs about, and the electricity is wearing off. Phanpy looks around for Ash, but then realizes it's hungry; Phanpy decides to follow a pleasant smell of food. The aroma comes from Team Rocket, who Meowth is cooking toast over a fire. Jessie and James sulk in their failure to get the Phanpy but Meowth cheers them up a bit. When Meowth is about to eat his toast, Phanpy steals it before he can eat it. Meowth ends up biting his hand. Meowth goes hysterical noticing that the toast disappeared, but Jessie and James don't seem to care and start eating. Phanpy swipes their toast as well. When Meowth looks around for what happened, he sees Phanpy standing there, finishing the toast. Meowth tries to scold Phanpy but it tackles Meowth. Meowth looks the other way for a while, with his tail waving at Phanpy, who seems to like it. <br /> <br /> The group meets up although nobody found Phanpy. Then Jessie and James appear out of a bush, dressed up in weird jumpsuits and helmets. Ash gives them a few remarks until Meowth shows up with Phanpy. Ash tries to call Phanpy to him, but Meowth goes up in front of Pikachu, waving his tail which is painted like a Phanpy. Phanpy gets excited and runs towards them, but Meowth quickly dodges, hitting Pikachu instead. James whips out the same hand and grabs Pikachu. He tries to shock them with Thunderbolt but the suits make Jessie and James invulnerable to electricity. Then, James releases his {{TP|James|Weezing}} to make a {{m|Smokescreen}}. With the smoke, Team Rocket is long gone. <br /> <br /> Team Rocket celebrates their catch with a toast of milk. Phanpy looks like he wants some as well but James puts Phanpy in a cage where Pikachu is. Pikachu plans that they should bash the cage so it rolls down the cliff. They bash the side of the cage twice and it rolls down, breaking when it smashes into a tree. James hears the crash and goes over to see that the cage is gone, and Meowth then sees the two Pokémon running away. Team Rocket hops into their balloon and chases after them. The group sees the balloon and rushes towards it. Both Pokémon and the group are stopped by a raging river. <br /> <br /> It looks like the two have no choice but to jump. Pikachu makes the first jump across to a stone, telling Phanpy to jump too. Phanpy does, though not really as well as Pikachu. Pikachu hops to another stone, Phanpy following but misses and goes in. Pikachu grabs Phanpy, causing both Pokémon to hang on the rock; Pikachu slips! Ash runs along the river to find something to get them. Pikachu grabs another rock that happens to be under a tree. Ash climbs up with a rope and tries to grab Pikachu and Phanpy. He manages to get Pikachu but Phanpy slips away. With no other option, Ash jumps into the river, despite the waterfall nearby. As soon as he falls down, Ash tosses the rope to the others, saving Phanpy. <br /> <br /> After the short refresher from the waterfall, Team Rocket arrives on the scene. Meowth does the Phanpy trick, but Phanpy's not so happy about Team Rocket this time. Jessie and James send out their Pokémon. Ash lets Phanpy go up for battle and Phanpy does a {{m|Rollout}} attack, which knocks the Team Rocket's Pokémon back. Pikachu lets off a Thunderbolt, but it doesn't affect Jessie and James, but it sure affected the whole balloon. The balloon explodes and they blast off.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}}'s {{pkmn|Egg}} hatches into a {{AP|Phanpy}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> ===== TV episode debuts=====<br /> * {{p|Phanpy}} ({{OP|Ash|Phanpy}})<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP230.png|thumb|right|200px|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP230.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Seadra}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Phanpy}} ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Phanpy}} ({{OP|Ash|Phanpy}}; hatched; debut)<br /> * {{p|Psyduck}} ({{OP|Misty|Psyduck}})<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}})<br /> * {{p|Weezing}} ({{OP|James|Weezing}})<br /> {{right clear}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This episode was initially going to be called &quot;Phanpy's Phantastic Arrival.&quot;<br /> * Phanpy is supposed to be 73.9 pounds, or 33.5 kilograms, but people are still able to hold it, as well as Pikachu being able to somewhat effectively bear its weight. Although this may be due to the fact that Phanpy is just a newborn, even more absurd occurrences have happened in ''[[DP044|Mass Hip-Po-Sis!]]''.<br /> * Even though Meowth says that the paint he put on his tail doesn't wash off and that it took a long time for him to paint it, the paint is missing between the two scenes where Meowth is using his tail as bait, exposing Meowth's normal brown tail.<br /> * Music from ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'' and ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' can be heard in this episode.<br /> * This is the last Japanese episode to premiere in 2001. <br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * Although {{p|Phanpy}} is a {{type|Ground}}, it was affected by {{m|Thunderbolt}}. However, this could be due to Phanpy's newborn state; its natural protection from {{type|Electric}} attacks may not have set in yet.<br /> * When Ash and his friends saw the Meowth Balloon, which is chasing Pikachu and {{AP|Phanpy}}, they followed it. But when they found Pikachu and Phanpy, they are on the other side of the river.<br /> * Even though {{p|Phanpy}} just hatched out of its {{pkmn|Egg}}, Ash told it to return in its [[Poké Ball]] even though it hadn't been caught yet.<br /> * Pikachu's left red cheek mark sticks out while looking for Phanpy.<br /> * When the group meets up after searching for Phanpy, Ash and Misty's shoes are completely white.<br /> * When Ash hangs upside down from a tree to grab Pikachu and Phanpy, his hat is completely red.<br /> * When {{p|Wobbuffet}} popped out of his Poké ball, he had already a wineglass of milk in his hand.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * In the Japanese version, there is a 23-second scene of Pikachu and Phanpy running away from Team Rocket and when they reach the river, it cuts to the commercial break. Afterwards, the same footage is played again.<br /> * The dub's commercial break is after Team Rocket has gotten away with Pikachu and Phanpy. <br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Epilang|color=DDDDDD|bordercolor=FFCB49<br /> |zh_cmn={{tt|蛋要孵化了|The Egg is Hatching}}<br /> |de={{tt|Phanpys wahre Freunde!|Phanpy's real friends!}}<br /> |nl={{tt|Een Plan Uitbroeden|Hatching a Plan}}<br /> |fr_eu={{tt|Une éclosion trompeuse|A misleading hatching}}<br /> |he=?מי נמצא בתוך הביצה{{tt|mi nimtsa betokh habeytsa?|Who's in the egg?}}<br /> |it={{tt|Il lieto evento|The happy event}}<br /> |pt_br={{tt|Criando um Plano|Creating a Plan}}<br /> |pt_eu={{tt|A Chegada Triunfante de Phanpy|The Triumphant Arrival of Phanpy}}<br /> |es_la={{tt|¡La esperada llegada de Phanpy!|Phanpy's expected arrival!}}<br /> |es_eu={{tt|Maquinando un plan|Hatching a plan}}<br /> |pl={{tt|Witaj, Phanpy!|Welcome, Phanpy!}}<br /> |hi=Phanpy का स्वागत है! {{tt|''Phanpy ka swagat hai!''|Welcome Phanpy!}} {{tt|*|Hungama dub}}<br /> }}<br /> <br /> {{-}}<br /> {{EpicodePrevNext|<br /> prevcode=EP229 |<br /> prevtitle=An Egg-Sighting Adventure! |<br /> nextcode=EP231 |<br /> nexttitle=Dues and Don'ts |<br /> series=Original series |<br /> colorscheme=Johto | }}<br /> {{Project Anime notice}}<br /> [[Category:Original series episodes|230]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes written by Junki Takegami|230]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes storyboarded by Yoshitaka Fujimoto|230]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes directed by Toshiaki Suzuki|230]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes animated by Izumi Shimura|230]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes focusing on Ash|230]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes focusing on Team Rocket|230]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes focusing on Pikachu|230]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes in which a main character obtains a new Pokémon|230]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Phanpys wahre Freunde]]<br /> [[fr:EP230]]<br /> [[ja:無印編第230話]]<br /> [[pl:EP230]]<br /> [[zh:EP231]]</div>

It was first broadcast in Japan on September 13, 2001 and in the United States on October 19, 2002<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_06-octillery-the-outcast/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;After reaching the town where the preliminary round of the Whirl Cup is held, Ash and Misty enter and earn the two victories required to continue on to the finals. A friend they had met earlier is not as fortunate. When Misty tries to console him with promises of the next Whirl Cup to be held in three years, he remains depressed, saying that it was not lack of ability but the low spirits of his Octillery that had brought about his defeat. The Pokémon had been depressed ever since it evolved from a Remoraid and was subsequently spurned by its onetime Remoraid friends. If the boy cannot somehow mend these friendships between Pokémon that have now grown different in appearance, he doesn't see any hopes of victory even in three years time. Ash and friends willingly lend their knowledge and enthusiasm to this problem of Pokémon sociology.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} have finally reached the main island where the [[Whirl Cup]] will be held. Ash and {{an|Misty}} go on with their talking about their dreams and such when finally they head over to the [[Pokémon Center]] for some info. Obviously it seems like they're not the only ones who want to enter. They wait in a long line for while and finally they get to the front desk. {{an|Brock}} goes off with flirting with [[Nurse Joy]] when Misty finally puts him out of the picture for a while. Ash and Misty register and it looks like there's going to be a qualifying match before the tournament. She shows a picture of the tournament tree, only sixteen entries available. {{TRT}} spies from the outside of the Center and comes up with another plan. They want to swipe any good {{t|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and give it to {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}}, but {{MTR}} wants a &quot;Theme Park.&quot;<br /> <br /> While the group walks around town, they notice a boy walking around all down in the dumps. Misty goes up and asks him if he's alright. The boy replies only asking if any of them are in the tournament, which Misty says yes. Immediately the boy introduces himself as [[Marcellus]] and asks if any of them would {{pkmn|battle}}, or {{pkmn|training|train}} for a while. Misty accepts and they head off to a battle site. The site is covered in water, only having two stones as {{pkmn|Trainer}} boxes plus four pillars. Marcellus says that this is supposed to simulate what the real arena looks like. Both get ready, Marcellus sends out {{p|Remoraid}} and Misty calls upon {{TP|Misty|Corsola}}. Marcellus commands Remoraid to use {{m|Water Gun}}, which Corsola counters with {{m|Mirror Coat}}, knocking back the Remoraid but not [[fainting|knocking it out]]. Corsola goes for a {{m|Tackle}} but Remoraid dives underneath and Corsola hits one of the pillars. It seems like Remoraid is nowhere to be seen but soon it is spotted on a wave. Marcellus tells Remoraid to use another Water Gun and this time it knocks Corsola out. Remoraid then [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Octillery}}. Marcellus thanks them and heads off. It's late night back at the Pokémon Center and Ash and Misty have a big day tomorrow. Ash asks {{AP|Pikachu}} to be his support while Misty asks {{an|Brock}} to keep {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} company while battling.<br /> <br /> The next day, the matches are quick to end. On Ash's side, it was {{AP|Totodile}} vs. {{p|Seel}} followed by Totodile vs. {{p|Shellder}}, while Misty's was Corsola vs. {{p|Seaking}} and {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} vs. {{p|Magikarp}}. After their matches, the three join up at the Pokémon Center where they see Marcellus again, but this time he seems down. Ash asks if he didn't make it, but Misty shoves him off and asks what's up. Marcellus explains that there's something going on with his Octillery lately. They go over to his house where they go in a room full of Remoraid in an aquarium. Marcellus releases his Octillery and it goes inside the tank, towards the school of Remoraid. The Remoraid, however shift to the opposite direction of Octillery. Octillery follows but again they shift to the other side. This continues until the Remoraid finally shoots out Water Gun at Octillery, which it goes in jar. They now understand the situation. After a few ideas, they dress up Ash in an Octillery costume, much to Ash's chagrin. Ash tries to lure out the Octillery but instead gets shot at. Maybe there's another way... but they put that on hold for now.<br /> <br /> During the night, Team Rocket slips in and commences their plan, get the Remoraid since it seems to be the easiest to steal. The group and Marcellus are about to start dinner when they hear a funny noise. Marcellus says he'll check it out. When he gets there, he flips on the light switch and sees Team Rocket. Immediately they go off with their {{motto}}, Marcellus not getting the idea until he sees the tanks are empty. Ash comes in and sees Team Rocket, however they make their escape in a truck and drives off. Looks like they can't catch up, but they notice puddles on the ground. Looks like Octillery left a trail.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket stops at the port where a boat is already waiting. Meowth goes and operates the crane while [[James]] opens up the back. While Meowth is operating, Octillery comes up unnoticed and starts smothering Meowth. [[Jessie]] and James pull off Octillery but soon it goes in a mad rage tackling Team Rocket to the ground. Soon Octillery bashes the aquarium until it cracks open, releasing all the Remoraid into the ocean water. Now the group has caught up, but Team Rocket isn't giving up. Meowth tries to grab Octillery with the crane, making a few unsuccessful moves but finally getting it. Ash is about to have Pikachu use {{m|Thunderbolt}} but Meowth laughs saying &quot;Do that and Octillery here is toast&quot;. With no other option, the Remoraid all fire at the crane, causing Octillery to go flying. But the Remoraid save it with Water Gun, sending it back onto the port. Pikachu then releases Thunderbolt followed by Octillery shooting an {{m|Octazooka}}, blowing Team Rocket sky high. After the battle, the Remoraid soon evolve into Octillery themselves and it looks like Marcellus's Octillery won't be lonely.<br /> <br /> The next day, the finalist Trainers await at a cliff to watch the Whirl Cup Stadium, partially flooded, rise. It looks like the real battle just begun.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{an|Misty}} and {{Ash}} make it through the preliminaries of the [[Whirl Cup]].<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Octillery}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP215.png|thumb|200px|right|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Marcellus]]<br /> * Whirl Cup competitors<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP215.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Jumpluff}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Octillery}} ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}})<br /> * {{p|Poliwhirl}} ({{OP|Misty|Poliwhirl}})<br /> * {{p|Corsola}} ({{OP|Misty|Corsola}})<br /> * {{p|Weezing}} ({{OP|James|Weezing}})<br /> * {{p|Chansey}} ({{OP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}})<br /> * {{p|Remoraid}} ([[Marcellus]]'s, multiple, evolved, one evolves)<br /> * {{p|Octillery}} ([[Marcellus]]'s, multiple, one newly evolved, debut)<br /> * {{p|Golduck}} (unknown Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Seel}} (unnamed Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Shellder}} (unnamed Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Kingler}} (unknown Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Seaking}} (unnamed Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Magikarp}} (unnamed Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Poliwag}} (unknown Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Poliwhirl}} (unknown Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Marill}} (unknown Trainer's)<br /> * {{p|Wooper}} (unknown Trainer's)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> {{incomplete|Section|Senryuu summary}}<br /> * This is the first episode to air in Japan after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.<br /> * Music from ''[[PK01|Pikachu's Vacation]]'' can be heard in this episode.<br /> * [[Professor Oak's Pokémon Lecture]]: {{p|Flareon}}<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * When Team Rocket enters the room with the Remoraid aquarium James tells Jessie he sees no resemblance to her first grade teacher, as if he has met that teacher.

(Japanese: '''カイリュー！げきりんはつどう！''' ''{{tt|Kairyu|Dragonite}}! Activate {{tt|Imperial Rage|Outrage}}!'') is the 253rd episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on June 20, 2002 and in the United States on June 14, 2003.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_43-great-bowls-of-fire/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Immediately after entering an area considered sacrosanct by the Dragon Pokémon that dwell there, Team Rocket sets off a chain of events that enrages the area's Dragonite guardian. Unchecked, this Dragon's rage threatens to destroy the area entirely and all those who dwell within it—including not only Team Rocket, but also Clair, the gym leader, and Ash and party. Facing a Dragon of an opponent, the odds are stacked against Ash, but when an unexpected ally—Ash's own Charizard—makes an appearance, Ash sees a glimmer of hope.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> Moments after {{TRT}} escaped in the arms of a Dragonite, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} see a Pokémon approaching them from the sky. The {{m|Flamethrower}} greeting is a dead giveaway; it's none other than [[Ash's Charizard]]! As Charizard lands on Ash and licks his face, Ash says that it hasn't changed a bit. Charizard is quickly followed by {{jo|Liza}} - astride [[Charla]]'s back - who both Ash and Clair are acquainted with. It is revealed that Liza and [[Clair]] were good childhood friends, and that Liza occasionally brings the Charizard from [[Charicific Valley]] to the [[Dragon Holy Land|Holy Land]] to train. Clair admits that she had seen Ash's Charizard before, but wasn't aware of its original Trainer. It seems that Charizard also has a romantic relationship with Charla, him being her bodyguard and &quot;knight in shining armor&quot; (causing [[Brock]] to lament that he seems to be the only one here without any luck in love).<br /> <br /> Liza asks Ash if he's had his Gym Battle with Clair, prompting the group to brief her on their recent troubles: Team Rocket stole the Dragon Fang, escaped into the Dragon's Holy Land, and tricked its guardian, Dragonite, into assisting them. Liza, Charla, and Charizard immediately pledge their assistance, and the group is soon being towed across the Holy Land in Charizard-pulled balloons. As they fly, the group wonders why {{p|Dragonite}} would assist Team Rocket. Brock suggests that the criminals threatened to destroy the Dragon Fang, thereby forcing Dragonite to obey them, but Clair doubts that a Pokémon as intelligent and powerful as the Holy Land's Dragonite would fall for such a ruse. [[Kaburagi]] reminds Ash and Co. that Dragonite originally belonged to the [[Gym Leader (EP253)|first Blackthorn Gym Leader]], who had dedicated his life in protecting the Holy Land; even after he passed away, his Dragonite continued its vigil in memory of its Trainer.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Team Rocket is having a very uncomfortable flight in Dragonite's arms, but the latter assures them (translated by Meowth) that it is taking them somewhere good. Dragonite finally drops its passengers off by a large lake, before going into the woods and collecting fruit for them to eat. As Team Rocket digs in, Dragonite implores them to eat in safety, promising them that no one will harm them now. Overcome with emotion, Team Rocket bursts into tears and praises their savior. However, the dastardly trio's attention is quickly drawn to their surroundings - namely, a small structure on the side of the lake.<br /> <br /> In the air, Clair and company have spotted the same lake, prompting Kaburagi to wonder if Dragonite would take Team Rocket to the Dragon Shrine. When Ash questions Kaburagi about the Dragon Shrine, the old man explains that it was built long ago to represent hope for harmony between humans and Pokémon. Within the shrine lies the Prayer Flame, a symbol of the eventual peace between humans and Pokémon; despite being lit over 500 years ago, it remains strong to this day. Unbeknownst to the heroes, Team Rocket is sneaking into the shrine while Dragonite sleeps, planning to raid it of its valuables. They come upon the golden bowl containing the Prayer Flame and resolve to steal it, only for James to insist that they take it as is (reasoning that it's probably worth more if the flame is still lit). However, the bowl's heat burns right through his gloves, causing him to hurl the Flame out of the shrine. Jessie and Meowth curse James' clumsiness, but they soon realize that they have bigger problems; the fallen Flame has set the landscape ablaze. Dragonite notices this, and turns on Team Rocket with a {{m|Hyper Beam}}, even as the Flame burns out of control.<br /> <br /> After dodging several attacks, Jessie uses {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}'s {{m|Counter}} to reflect one of Dragonite's Hyper Beams back at it - however, this only seems to make the Dragon Pokémon even angrier. Luckily, Ash and his allies arrive on the scene, with Charizard's {{m|Flamethrower}} saving Team Rocket from another Hyper Beam. Clair sends out {{p|Dragonair}} to put out the raging fire, while Liza, Misty, and Brock (with Charla, {{TP|Brock|Onix}}, {{TP|Brock|Geodude}}, {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}, and {{TP|Misty|Politoed}}) try to save the Pokémon trapped in the fires. Charizard glares at Dragonite, but Ash reins it in, intent on trying to reason with Dragonite first.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket huddles at Ash's feet, thanking him for saving them; Kaburagi takes the opportunity to retrieve the Dragon Fang from James. Clair begs Dragonite to recognize her and stop its attack, but to no avail - Dragonite fires a Hyper Beam at her, which is only partially deflected by Charizard's {{m|Flamethrower}}. Although Clair is unharmed, Kaburagi finally realizes why the Pokémon is so unreasonable; he warns Clair that Dragonite is suffering from {{m|Outrage|attack rage}}. As the guardian of the Holy Land unleashes a powerful {{m|Twister}} that forces Dragonair to dispel her rain clouds, Misty asks Clair about Kaburagi's statement. The Blackthorn Gym Leader explains that Dragonite has become confused after performing too many consecutive attacks, causing it to attack everything it sees in a berserk fury.<br /> <br /> Realizing that they need to battle Dragonite to snap it out of confusion, Ash has Pikachu try a {{m|Thunder}}; unfortunately, Dragonite dashes up and knocks him down before he can attack. Ash catches Pikachu, and is in turn saved from Dragonite's attack by Charizard. Ash again tries to talk Dragonite down, asking it to listen to the cries of the wild Pokémon around it, but the maddened Dragon-Type is unmoved. Kaburagi declares that Dragonite entered the attack rage in response to something terrible, forcing James to admit his attempt to steal the Prayer Flame. As Misty's Politoed puts out the flames on the Dragon Shrine, Clair leaves Kaburagi in charge of restoring the shrine, while she tries to think of a way to stop Dragonite's rampage.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Charizard and Dragonite face off over the lake. Charizard opens with a Flamethrower, knocking Dragonite into the water. Dragonite emerges unharmed and fires a Hyper Beam at Ash, but Dragonair intercepts the attack with {{m|Safeguard}}. Clair arrives and asks Ash to work with her in order to stop Dragonite. When Ash agrees, Clair has Dragonair use {{m|Bind}} to cut Dragonite off; when the fully-evolved dragon breaks free, Charizard and Dragonair blast it with Flamethrower and Hyper Beam. Even this fails to slow Dragonite down, and it quickly evades and counters Dragonair's second attempt at a Hyper Beam. Ash has Charizard use {{m|Seismic Toss}}, but Dragonite dodges and hurls Charizard into the woods. As Charizard returns to the air, ready for another round, Clair realizes that Dragonite is too powerful for any one attack to work.<br /> <br /> Trying a different approach, Clair orders Dragonair to summon thunder clouds while Charizard keeps Dragonite busy. Another Twister attack from the latter forces Liza and Charla to land their balloon, now carrying Brock and the evacuated wild Pokémon. After a moment, lightning begins striking Dragonite, and Pikachu soon adds a Thunder attack to pin the Dragon Pokémon down. Despite the shocking assault, Dragonite tries to break free with Hyper Beam - in response, Ash has Charizard use {{m|Fire Spin}} to contain the attack. The energy of the Hyper Beam is thus reflected and turned back on Dragonite itself; nonetheless, the furious Pokémon attempts another Hyper Beam. This time, the combined attacks explode in Dragonite's face, sending it plummeting into the water.<br /> <br /> As everyone regroups and holds their breath, Dragonite emerges from the water in a flash. Assuming the worst, Ash prepares to have Pikachu launch another Thunder attack, but Clair tells him to wait - sure enough, Dragonite's attack rage is finally gone. Having regained its conscious state, it weeps over the damage it caused to its beloved Holy Land. As it is consoled by the other Pokémon living in the area, Misty and Kaburagi order Team Rocket to leave; although they do so without protest, Kaburagi quickly realizes that they have taken the Dragon Fang from the box. One Thunderbolt attack later, and the Dragon Fang slips from James' hand as Team Rocket blasts off again. Ash recovers the Dragon Fang, while Geodude puts the Prayer Flame back in the Dragon Shrine.<br /> <br /> Later, back at the Gym, Ash and Clair agree to start a new Gym battle the next day, as Charizard gives Ash a 'lucky' Flamethrower to the face.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * [[Ash's Charizard]] returns from the [[Charicific Valley]].<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP253.png|thumb|200px|right|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Clair]]<br /> * {{jo|Liza}}<br /> * [[Kaburagi]]<br /> * [[Gym Leader (EP253)|Old Gym Leader]] (flashback)<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP253.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Chinchou}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Dragonite}} ''(Japan)''<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Charizard}} ({{OP|Ash|Charizard}}; returns)<br /> * {{p|Staryu}} ({{OP|Misty|Staryu}})<br /> * {{p|Politoed}} ({{OP|Misty|Politoed}})<br /> * {{p|Onix}} ({{OP|Brock|Onix}})<br /> * {{p|Geodude}} ({{OP|Brock|Geodude}})<br /> * {{p|Dragonair}} ({{OP|Clair|Dragonair}})<br /> * {{p|Charizard}} ({{jo|Liza}}'s; [[Charla]])<br /> * {{p|Wynaut}} ({{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Wynaut|anime}})<br /> * {{p|Dragonite}} (then [[Clair]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Pidgey}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Spearow}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Murkrow}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Rattata}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Aipom}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Mankey}}<br /> * {{p|Nidoran♀}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Sentret}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Furret}} (multiple)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Attack Rage is the anime equivalent of the side effect of the move {{m|Outrage}}.<br /> * The English title to this episode is a reference to the song &quot;{{wp|Great Balls of Fire}}&quot;.<br /> * During this episode, with Charizard's arrival, Ash technically has seven Pokémon on hand, one more than the allowed six a Trainer can carry.

It was first broadcast in Japan on June 13, 2002 and in the United States on June 7, 2003. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_42-fangs-for-nothing/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;No sooner has Ash begun what he hopes will be his final gym battle in the Johto League than Team Rocket once again throws a wrench into his plans, making off with the Dragon Fang, an invaluable heirloom long held by the Blackthorn Gym. Ash and friends, along with the gym leader, give chase, but in their flight, Team Rocket leads them deep into a secretive area rarely visited by anyone but the Dragon Pokémon that dwell there. Perhaps angered by these uninvited guests, a large beast flies directly at Ash and friends as soon as they enter this area. Uncertain whether this shape be friend or foe, our heroes raise their guard and wait as it grows closer... and looms larger still.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> The episode begins with {{Ash}} and [[Clair]] on the battlefield, about to begin a three-on-three battle, with [[Kaburagi]] as judge. Clair leads off with {{p|Kingdra}}, which Ash responds with {{AP|Pikachu}}. Pikachu tries to {{m|Thunderbolt}} Kingdra, who easily shakes the attack off. This puzzles Misty and Brock. Kingdra responds with {{m|Twister}}, which catches Pikachu. However, Pikachu manages to recover, and launches a {{m|Thunder}} attack, only for Kingdra to shake it off as well. Ash is also puzzled by why Kingdra is easily repelling Pikachu's attacks, to which Clair replies that, though Kingdra is evolved from a {{p|Seadra}} (a {{t|Water}} type, the reason which Ash made his decision to lead off with Pikachu), upon evolution it gains the {{t|Dragon}} type as well. Kingdra continues the battle with {{m|Hydro Pump}}, which Pikachu returns fire with Thunderbolt.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, [[Jessie]] is lamenting the loss of {{p|Dratini}}, but is cheered up by the prospect of food. As Jessie is planning her revenge against Clair, the food meant to cheer her up is stolen from right under them. Though {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} notices this, the others blame Wobbuffet (after hearing the voice of a hidden {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Wynaut}}) for eating all the food. However, they do manage to formulate a plan to steal the Dragon Fang.<br /> <br /> Back at the Gym, Ash is convinced to switch out Pikachu after a {{m|Quick Attack}} also fails to faze Kingdra. Sending in {{AP|Noctowl}} instead, Ash tries to use its psychic abilities to try and land a blow against Kingdra. Elsewhere, {{TRT}} manages to sneak in and steal the Dragon Fang without setting off its infra-red alarms, however, an overzealous Wobbuffet manages to knock the group over, breaking one of the beams. The alarm reaches the battlefield, where, as Team Rocket was stealing the Dragon Fang, Noctowl had managed to land a {{m|Confusion}} on Kingdra, but a Hydro Pump had managed to break its momentum when Noctowl tried to throw it. Noctowl's {{m|Hypnosis}} also missed its mark thanks to Kingdra's {{m|Agility}}, and Kingdra managed to land a Hydro Pump on Noctowl, about to knock it out just as the alarm sounded.<br /> <br /> Abandoning the battle, the group pursues Team Rocket, who had managed to commandeer a boat. The group uses {{TP|Clair|Dragonair}}, {{AP|Totodile}}, {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}, and {{TP|Misty|Politoed}} to follow. Team Rocket escapes into the Dragon's Den, a cave in the middle of the water. Their pursuit in the cave leads them to the Dragon's Holy Land, a place that Clair had once trained with Lance. Team Rocket is saved from falling down by the waterfall into the Holy Land by a {{p|Dragonite}}, who Team Rocket convinces that they are trying to protect the Dragon Fang from Clair and the rest.<br /> <br /> Ash and his friends also manage to reach the Holy Land, and they split up to look for Team Rocket. Dragonite manages to fire a {{m|Hyper Beam}} as a warning shot to the group, just as Clair arrives. Kaburagi explains that the Dragonite had once belonged to the first {{OBP|Gym Leader|EP253}} of Blackthorn City, and had never felt the same since her Trainer had passed away. However, they are unsure as to why Dragonite would assist Team Rocket. However, their thoughts are disturbed by a roar coming from a Pokémon flying towards them...<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}} begins his [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against [[Clair]], but it is interrupted due to {{TRT}} trying to steal the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Dragon Fang}}.<br /> * {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Wynaut}} begins to follow Team Rocket.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> * {{p|Wynaut}} ({{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|Wynaut|anime}})<br /> <br /> =====TV episode debuts=====<br /> ======English dub debuts======<br /> * {{p|Furret}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP252.png|thumb|200px|right|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Clair]]<br /> * [[Kaburagi]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP252.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Octillery}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Dragonair}} ''(Japan)''<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Charizard}} ({{OP|Ash|Charizard}}; shadowed)<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}})<br /> * {{p|Noctowl}} ({{OP|Ash|Noctowl}})<br /> * {{p|Staryu}} ({{OP|Misty|Staryu}})<br /> * {{p|Politoed}} ({{OP|Misty|Politoed}})<br /> * {{p|Kingdra}} ([[Clair]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Dragonair}} ({{OP|Clair|Dragonair}})<br /> * {{p|Wynaut}} ([[Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime#Wynaut|anime]])<br /> * {{p|Dragonite}} (then [[Clair]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Rattata}}<br /> * {{p|Bellossom}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Hoppip}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Skiploom}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Jumpluff}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Butterfree}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Sentret}}<br /> * {{p|Furret}} (English/TV debut)<br /> * {{p|Sunflora}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Venonat}}<br /> * {{p|Oddish}} (multiple)<br /> * {{p|Nidoran♀}}<br /> * {{p|Nidoran♂}}<br /> * {{p|Stantler}}<br /> * {{p|Bellsprout}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This episode marks the English dub debut of {{p|Furret}} in the anime, as the [[EP250|episode]] it already debuted in never got dubbed into English and was [[Banned episodes|banned]] almost internationally, including in {{pmin|the United States|North America}}, due to the [[Controversy|controversial]] appearance of {{p|Jynx|another Pokémon}}.<br /> * The English title to this episode is a pun on the phrase &quot;thanks for nothing&quot;.<br /> * Music from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' and ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' can be heard.<br /> * This episode is featured on the ''Volume 8: Dragon'' copy of [[Pokémon Elements]].<br /> * After Brock grabs onto Staryu, he remarks sarcastically, &quot;''This'' is a whole new experience.&quot; He may be referring to the time he clung to Staryu in the sea in ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.&lt;!--Which is strange, as his memories of that moment would've been erased from his memory by Mewtwo--&gt;<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * The narrator says that Clair agreed to begin the Gym battle after the ritual.

It was first broadcast in Japan on June 6, 2002 and in the United States on May 31, 2003. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_41-beauty-is-skin-deep/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Finally reaching the outskirts of Blackthorn City, Ash pushes to quickly seek out the gym where he hopes to earn his final Johto badge. Before he has the opportunity, he chances into a Dratini and learns that its eager trainer, Clair, is in fact the Blackthorn Gym leader. Ash's attempt to challenge her to a duel—and Brock's attempts at getting her phone number—are both cut short when Team Rocket arrives, intent on stealing the Gym Leader's Dratini right out from under her. After dispatching with these hapless villains, Ash secures Clair's promise to face him in her gym. Cheerfully Ash and friends march the last few miles into the city.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> Having nearly arrived at [[Blackthorn City]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} find a {{p|Dratini}} lying on the ground. However, when they try to get a closer look, a {{p|Gyarados}} appears and keeps them at bay using a {{m|Hydro Pump}}. A mysterious woman appears, threatening them if they try to harm the Dratini. After the confusion is sorted, the woman introduces herself as [[Clair]], and that her Gyarados was simply trying to protect her Dratini. However, when Dratini leaves, Clair and Gyarados leaves in pursuit. Ash then runs into her elderly assistant, [[Kaburagi]], who reveals to them that Clair is the Blackthorn Gym Leader, and must perform a ritual with the Dragon Fang. As they slowly follow Clair and her Dratini upstream, Kaburagi reveals the local history: an unidentified dragon Pokémon had terrorized local residents, until it was defeated by the first Blackthorn Gym Leader, who took one of its fangs as a sign of victory. Since then, the Dragon Fang has been handed down through generations, and today is the day that they must perform a purification ritual.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, {{TRT}}, further upstream, is relaxing when Dratini passes by. [[Jessie]] is enamored by the Dratini, hoping to catch one for her own. As [[James]] sends out {{TP|James|Weezing}}, they are suddenly washed in Gyarados' Hydro Pump, and meet face to face with Clair. When Team Rocket tries to threaten her, she sends them flying by using another one of Gyarados' Hydro Pump attacks. Meanwhile, Ash and company, with Kaburagi, manage to make up their ground with Clair. Kaburagi implores Clair to return in time for the ritual, but Clair objects, seeing as Dratini is preparing to shed its skin - a point in which Dratini are the most vulnerable. When Dratini leaves, Clair and Gyarados follow, and Ash and company have no choice but to follow them, and let Dratini shed its skin before preparing for the ritual. Team Rocket, intending on stealing Dratini, is also in pursuit - though James contends that Dratini would fetch a high price either on the open market or as a gift to {{an|Giovanni}}, Jessie is adamant that she keep Dratini for herself, thinking that it is cute.<br /> <br /> Knowing that pursuing Dratini may take the entire day, Clair takes a break for lunch. This gives an opportunity for Ash to challenge Clair, which Clair accepts. Kaburagi, noticing that Ash had won the Badge from [[Mahogany Town]], asks them whether the rumors of a [[Red Gyarados]] rampaging near town were true. Ash and company proceed to tell them the whole story, including how they had met [[Lance]], and how they were in the middle of the entire situation. Clair and her assistant is surprised at the fact that Lance is a Pokémon G-Man, which surprises Ash (not knowing that they, too, are acquainted with Lance). Clair reveals that the two are both {{t|Dragon}}-type Trainers who had trained with each other. Knowing this, Ash and Clair are both excited for their upcoming battle. Their lunch is disrupted by an elderly couple, who wants to take pictures with Dratini. Though Clair is reluctant, she allows the couple to go near Dratini, only for the couple to trap Dratini in a net. The couple reveals themselves as Jessie and James, while {{MTR}} covers their escape using a smoke bomb.<br /> <br /> While Clair is in hot pursuit of Team Rocket's balloon, Dratini tries desperately to break free by rocking the balloon. When the balloon crashes, it makes a desperate attempt into the water, which Jessie quickly stops. This allows Clair to catch up. Trying to defend themselves, James sends out Weezing, but is dispatched easily by Gyarados. Pikachu tries to {{m|Thunderbolt}} Team Rocket to send them flying, but {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}'s {{m|Counter}} deflects the attack in all directions - hitting Ash, Pikachu, Team Rocket, and nearly hitting {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, and Kaburagi. When an errant Thunderbolt is about to hit Dratini, Clair dives to protect it. Just at that moment, Dratini evolves into {{p|Dragonair}}, much to Jessie's dismay (who contends that it was cuter as a Dratini). As Dragonair is far more rare, Team Rocket presses on their attack, but thanks to Gyarados' {{m|Hyper Beam}} and Dragonair's {{m|Twister}}, they are sent flying.<br /> <br /> Just as they celebrate their victory, Dragonair leaves, with everyone in pursuit. They are led to Riverhead Falls, the source of the water that leads into Blackthorn City, and the perfect place for the ritual. Ash and company are witnesses to the purification ritual, in which Clair says a prayer and proceeds to drench the [[Dragon Fang]] in the lake water. The Dragon Fang reacts, and sends a dragon-shaped beam of light into the sky. Kaburagi explains that after a dragon Pokémon dies, its body becomes a star in the sky.<br /> <br /> The next day, Ash and his friends finally make it to the city gates of Blackthorn City, as the Blackthorn Gym awaits.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} get to [[Blackthorn City]] and meet [[Clair]], the local [[Gym Leader]].<br /> * Ash challenges Clair to a Gym battle.<br /> * Clair's {{p|Dratini}} evolves into {{TP|Clair|Dragonair}}.<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * [[Clair]]<br /> ====Pokémon debuts====<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP251.png|thumb|200px|right|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Clair]]<br /> * [[Kaburagi]]<br /> * [[Lance]] (flashback)<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP251.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Goldeen}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Dratini}} ''(Japan)''<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}})<br /> * {{p|Weezing}} ({{OP|James|Weezing}})<br /> * {{p|Dratini}} ({{OP|Clair|Dratini}}, evolves)<br /> * {{p|Dragonair}} ({{OP|Clair|Dragonair}}, newly evolved)<br /> * {{p|Gyarados}} ([[Clair]]'s)<br /> * {{p|Dragonite}} ({{OP|Lance|Dragonite}}; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Gyarados}} ([[Red Gyarados]], [[Lance]]'s; flashback)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This episode begins the five part [[Blackthorn City]] arc.<br /> * The English title of this episode is based on the saying ''Beauty is only skin deep''.<br /> * Music from ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' and ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' can be heard in the background.<br /> * Near the end of the episode, Kaburagi says, &quot;Yes, once a dragon Pokemon becomes a star, it watches over all dragon Pokémon.

(Japanese: '''ニョロトノのチアリーディング！''' ''{{tt|Nyorotono|Politoed}}'s Cheerleading!'') is the 249th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on May 23, 2002 and in the United States on May 24, 2003. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_40-i-politoed-ya-so/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;When Ash, Misty, and Brock pause for a quaint picnic by a lake, Politoed wanders off and is mistaken by another trainer for her own Politoed, the rhythm leader in her Pokémon cheerleading squad that had gone AWOL. When Ash and friends clear up the misunderstanding, the trainer still begs for them to loan her their Politoed for use in an upcoming cheerleading competition. Meanwhile, her own Politoed returns and, none too pleased to find another Pokémon in its place, immediately runs away again. Not wanting to break up a happy Pokémon cheer team, Misty allows the trainer to borrow her Pokémon for the competition, but promises in the meantime to track down the missing Politoed and convince it to return to active duty.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} pause for a picnic by a lake, and release all of their Pokémon for lunch. Ash compliments Brock on the food, a sentiment shared by {{AP|Pikachu}} and all of the Pokémon, to which Brock emotionally plies everyone with more food. {{AP|Cyndaquil}} eats two rice balls at once and begins to choke, but when Ash runs over to help, it uses Flamethrower to clear its airways and roasts Ash's face in the process. <br /> <br /> After lunch everyone has a sleep, except for [[Misty's Politoed]], who decides to have another rice ball. In the process of taking one, it knocks it off the plate and it rolls into the bushes. During Misty's search, Politoed is discovered by a female Trainer, who admonishes &quot;Bean&quot; for running away and losing its red headband. Resigned to Politoed's behavior, the girl takes its hand and starts walking home, just as another Politoed wearing a red headband wanders out and watched after them, confused.<br /> <br /> The girl arrives back at a large building and announces to a group of {{type|Grass}} Pokémon that she found Bean. However, the {{p|Sunflora}}, {{p|Jumpluff}} and {{p|Bellossom}} all crowd round, confused, and the girl realizes that Politoed is not her own. Politoed promptly begins clapping happily, and the Grass Pokémon all enthusiastically dance and sing to the rhythm. Astonished but happy, the girl exclaims that she loves Politoed.<br /> <br /> Back at camp, Brock recalls {{TP|Brock|Onix}} and they prepare to head off, but Misty exclaims that she can't find Politoed. Just as they run off to look for it, they fall into {{TRT}}'s pitfall and are confronted. In the closing line of the motto, Meowth sticks a large metal plate over the hole, sealing Ash and his friends inside. As Ash yells at them to let them out, a sad Bean walks past, which Team Rocket believes to belong to Misty. Misty, only being able to hear, cries for Politoed to run away, but Team Rocket tells Meowth to attack, as he is a Pokémon and doesn't do enough battling. Meowth leaps forward, but Bean sticks out its long tongue and stops him in midair, causing him to fall back. Impressed, Jessie and James attempt to entice the confused Bean into joining Team Rocket. However, Misty and the others escape from the hole and yell at Politoed not to believe what Team Rocket says. After yelling at each other, Bean tells Meowth that it's not interested, and Pikachu sends them blasting off with {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Misty runs up to Politoed happily, but instantly realizes that it isn't hers.<br /> <br /> Back with Misty's Politoed, the girl is instructing her Grass Pokémon to dance, conducted by Misty's Politoed. The group leaps into their signature finish with Politoed at the head of a pyramid, just as Misty, Bean and the others walk past. Misty bets that her Politoed and Bean have been mixed up somehow. Bean looks into the building courtyard and Misty spots Politoed with the girl. Misty explains that they must be a cheerleading squad.<br /> <br /> Bean becomes angry and upset at seeing Misty's Politoed, and runs up to the girl, who enthusiastically greets him at first. However, she then turns snide, informing Bean that he's late and has been replaced, saddening Bean. Misty runs up and informs her that Politoed belongs to her, introducing themselves while Misty's Politoed dances happily. The girl introduces herself as {{OBP|Tammy|EP249}}, and explains that her team is trying to enter the National Cheering Competition. After some small talk, Tammy asks Misty for a favor.<br /> <br /> Tammy shows the trio how well her group does with Misty's Politoed conducting, and assures her that she would be certain to win first place if Politoed led them to the Nationals. However, Misty is worried about Bean, who is standing all alone, sadly watching the proceedings. Tammy explains that she was very angry at Bean earlier, who ran away. Misty asks if Bean can train again, but Tammy sadly says no, then orders her Grass Pokémon back to work. Ash and Misty feel bad for Bean, who is sadly walking away. Misty vows to do something for Bean.<br /> <br /> Typically, Team Rocket is fantasizing about presenting the whole Cheering squad to Giovanni, to put him in a good mood. <br /> <br /> Misty and her friends chase Bean and tell it that it and Tammy are being stubborn and should simply reconcile. However, Bean runs away and Brock notes that it didn't go well. Ash and Pikachu follow Bean, but Brock and Misty go back to Tammy. Ash and Pikachu track down Bean who is practicing its moves. Pikachu attempts to make Bean laugh, but the game is up when Ash bursts out laughing at Pikachu's faces. Ash apologizes for blowing Pikachu's cover and tries to talk to Bean, who simply shoves Pikachu aside and walks away. Ash calls after Bean, but there is no response.<br /> <br /> Back at Tammy's, she is pleading with Misty to let her borrow Politoed until the competition. Misty says that she has spent longer with Bean, and Brock says that having to catch up with Misty just to return Politoed would be a lot of trouble just for a competition. Misty asks if the competition really is that important, to which Tammy replies that it is her dream to entertain the world with her Pokémon's cheering.<br /> <br /> Politoed leads the signature pose once more, but one of the Jumpluff trips and the whole pyramid collapses. Brock and Misty are horrified but Tammy just yells at the group, admonishing them for their failure and saying that she is ashamed of every one of them. The Pokémon begin to cry and Tammy only yells at them for that, until Misty rushes over. Tammy apologizes for the mess-up, but Misty berates her for not caring about her own Pokémon, not even checking if they were injured. Misty checks on Politoed, who is fine, who then begins to clap, cheering Tammy's Pokémon out of their tears. Tammy watches Misty check the Pokémon, getting a flashback of her younger self, nurturing a young Bellossom who just suffered a fall. She remembers Bean conducting the group and exclaiming their dreams of entertaining, not winning.<br /> <br /> These memories cause Tammy to start crying, much to the surprise of Misty, Brock, Politoed and Tammy's Pokémon. Politoed's clapping only makes her cry harder, as she explains her obsession with winning the competition had begun to override everything else. She had been trying to make people happy while upsetting those closest to her. However, her Pokémon begin to cheer, showing that they are not angry at her at all. She emotionally embraces all of her Pokémon.<br /> <br /> At this moment, Team Rocket attacks in a giant Cheering Politoed mecha. The robot's giant tongue seizes Misty, {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}, Brock, Tammy, Politoed and all the Cheering squad and everyone is dumped in the giant robot's stomach cage. Nearby, Ash hears and sees the mecha and rushes back with Pikachu and Bean in pursuit. The mecha turns around and faces Ash; [[Jessie]] taunts him for being tardy. Brock yells a warning to Ash, but it is too late and Ash and Pikachu fall into another pitfall, into a large sticky flytrap that immobilizes the pair of them. Team Rocket's mecha uses an antenna to seize Pikachu and cut him free, but Ash is left stuck. <br /> <br /> Inside, Jessie dreams about her hard work paying off, to which James complains that he and Meowth did all the work. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt but it doesn't work: Team Rocket has insulated the robot against electric attacks. As the mecha turns to leave, it is confronted by Bean. Team Rocket attacks, but Bean dodges the tongue and uses {{m|Water Gun}} on the glass behind which Tammy and the others are trapped. The glass shifts and everyone falls free. Bean and Tammy happily reunited, but the mecha attempts to squash the pair, who are only saved when Tammy tackles Bean out of the way. Tammy apologizes to Bean and pleads with it to let her work with it towards their goals, which Bean happily accepts. Misty and her Politoed vow to help, and it conducts the cheer squad. Jessie becomes sour and orders {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} to use {{m|Headbutt}}, which Misty's Politoed immediately counters with a Headbutt of its own. Politoed lands and begins clapping while Arbok is [[Flinch|dazed]]. Bean uses {{m|DoubleSlap}} and Politoed {{m|Water Gun}}, knocking out Arbok. Bean and Politoed then double up a Water Gun and drench the mecha in water. Brock frees Ash from the pitfall and Ash orders Pikachu to use Thunderbolt, zapping the robot and sending Team Rocket blasting off.<br /> <br /> Politoed and Bean both begin to clap, much to Tammy's astonishment. Bean's clapping does just as good a job as Politoed's, as the Grass Pokémon begin to dance just like they did for Politoed.<br /> <br /> Grateful, Tammy promises to cheer for Ash in his Johto championship and bid farewell to the trio, who sets off towards their next adventure.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP249.png|thumb|200px|right|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * {{an|Giovanni}} ([[boss fantasy|fantasy]])<br /> * {{OBP|Tammy|EP249}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP249.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Totodile}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Politoed}} ''(Japan)''<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Bayleef}} ({{OP|Ash|Bayleef}})<br /> * {{p|Cyndaquil}} ({{OP|Ash|Cyndaquil}})<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}})<br /> * {{p|Phanpy}} ({{OP|Ash|Phanpy}})<br /> * {{p|Psyduck}} ({{OP|Misty|Psyduck}})<br /> * {{p|Politoed}} ({{OP|Misty|Politoed}})<br /> * {{p|Corsola}} ({{OP|Misty|Corsola}})<br /> * {{p|Onix}} ({{OP|Brock|Onix}})<br /> * {{p|Geodude}} ({{OP|Brock|Geodude}})<br /> * {{p|Crobat}} ({{OP|Brock|Crobat}})<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}})<br /> * {{p|Politoed}} ({{OBP|Tammy|EP249}}'s; Bean)<br /> * {{p|Bellossom}} ({{OBP|Tammy|EP249}}'s; ×5)<br /> * {{p|Sunflora}} ({{OBP|Tammy|EP249}}'s; ×3)<br /> * {{p|Jumpluff}} ({{OBP|Tammy|EP249}}'s; ×3)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This episode aired in the U.S. exactly one year and one day from its Japanese airing. <br /> * The English title of this episode is a pun of the phrase ''I told you so''.<br /> * This episode is one of the rare times where Brock does not flirt with a girl.

Search for {{tt|Kamonegi|Farfetch'd}}!!'') is the 145th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on April 27, 2000 and in the United States on March 17, 2001. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/03_40-a-farfetchd-tale/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;An inexperienced young Trainer mistakenly scares off his own Farfetch'd. Ash and friends are happy to help, but will have to find it before Team Rocket, their stomachs as empty as their piggy bank, can get their hands on this savory Pokémon.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> As our heroes enter the [[Ilex Forest]], {{an|Misty}} worries they might be lost. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} worries about their empty stomachs.<br /> <br /> {{Ash}} and {{Ashfr}} soon happen to meet a boy and his {{p|Farfetch'd}}. They appear to be having a problem; the boy tries to get Farfetch'd to use &quot;Cutting attack&quot;, but Farfetch'd is disregarding its {{pkmn|Trainer}} completely. Ash steps in and informs the boy that &quot;{{m|Cut}} attack&quot; is the correct name. The much embarrassed boy now tells Farfetch'd to use &quot;Cut&quot;, but even when given the correct name of the [[Move|attack]], Farfetch'd refuses to obey!<br /> <br /> Team Rocket trudges on, ignorant of all but their hunger pangs. Apparently, they're all out of money and are too weak to forage for food.<br /> <br /> The boy, who introduces himself as {{OBP|Sylvester|EP145}}, explains that he is a beginning Trainer and sometimes has trouble remembering the names of attacks. He wants to be able to make &quot;purifying {{DL|Type-enhancing item|charcoal}}&quot; like his father does. {{an|Brock}} explains to Ash and Misty that purifying charcoal is {{wp|Charcoal|burnt wood used for fuel}} that can also purify water and air. The Ilex Forest is world-famous for its purified charcoal; in fact, Brock even uses it for a recipe he calls &quot;Brock's Rockin' Rice&quot;. Sylvester says that he needs to teach Farfetch'd how to cut wood into perfect blocks. Farfetch'd doesn't look happy to be working with Sylvester, though. It appears to think very little of its Trainer. Nevertheless, Ash encourages the two by telling them how he and {{AP|Pikachu}} worked together to become best friends. Sylvester and Farfetch'd are persuaded to try again.<br /> <br /> At the local [[Pokémon Center]], Ash reports to {{an|Professor Oak}} that he has safely delivered the [[GS Ball]] to [[Kurt]] in [[Azalea Town]]. Ash also tells Oak of his {{ball|Lure}}, which he received from Kurt as a gift, and his {{Badge|Hive}}, which he won from [[Bugsy]], the [[Gym Leader]]. Ash's {{AP|Muk}}, {{AP|Kingler}}, {{AP|Snorlax}}, and {{AP|Tauros}} squeeze into the screen to wish Ash luck as he seeks out the next Gym. Suddenly, Sylvester runs into the Center and asks [[Nurse Joy]] if she has seen his Farfetch'd; apparently, it has run away after Sylvester forgot a few attack names again. Nurse Joy suggests looking for Farfetch'd at [[Yosaku|his father's]] house, since Farfetch'd went there the previous time it ran away. Sylvester seems very down on himself, so Ash cheers him up by volunteering to accompany him to his house, and to search the forest if Farfetch'd cannot be found there.<br /> <br /> At Sylvester's house, Sylvester's father is busy at a hearth. His {{p|Magmar}} provides flames while he works hard to make the purifying charcoal. He receives the news that Farfetch'd has run away again with very little patience; in fact, he begins berating his son for being such a bad Trainer. Ash, feeling sorry for Sylvester, steps in and tells the father that his son is trying his best and should not be pressed so hard. Sylvester's father is not impressed; he orders his son and his new friends out into the forest to look for Farfetch'd.<br /> <br /> Meanwhile, Team Rocket is still hungry. Then, {{MTR}} smells food! The scent is coming from two rolls on a strange-looking pedestal. [[James]] picks them up, but [[Jessie]] and Meowth eat them before he can. Then, Farfetch'd walks out from behind a bush, unaware of Team Rocket. The always-scheming thieves decide to grab the valuable Pokémon and sell it, using the money to buy lots of food. Farfetch'd manages to avoid James' initial lunge, but soon the poor Pokémon is cornered!<br /> <br /> Ash and the others are having no luck finding Farfetch'd. Then Ash comes up with an idea: they can use their Pokémon to search! After Brock hastily withdraws his {{TP|Brock|Pineco}} before it {{m|Selfdestruct}}s, Ash realizes that none of the Pokémon are looking for Farfetch'd, so he gets them into action.<br /> <br /> At the same time, Team Rocket is discovering that Farfetch'd won't be so easy to capture. It flies up to perch on a tree limb, cutting several branches with its leek and causing them to fall on Team Rocket's heads. Jessie tosses Meowth upwards in frustration, but Farfetch'd easily bonks him on the head, sending Meowth back down on Jessie's head. Jessie sends out her {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}; Farfetch'd blocks Arbok's {{m|Poison Sting}} with its leek. Arbok dives for the leek, but misses. Finally, Lickitung uses its giant Tongue to grab the leek. Without its leek, Farfetch'd tries to run away, but Meowth lassoes it. With Farfetch'd secure in a netted bag, James tries to eat the leek, but Jessie swipes it away. Meowth reminds him that the leek will make Farfetch'd complete, and more money can be made.<br /> <br /> {{AP|Heracross}} spots Team Rocket with Farfetch'd and reports back to Ash. Having been discovered, Team Rocket performs their motto for Ash and Sylvester, then makes a run for it. But {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and {{AP|Chikorita}} use {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut the bag, freeing Farfetch'd. Before it can fly back to Sylvester, though, Farfetch'd is grabbed by Lickitung. James sends out his {{TP|James|Weezing}} and {{TP|James|Victreebel}} and, after being swallowed by the latter, orders the former to fire {{m|Sludge}} at Ash and his Pokémon, immobilizing them. As Arbok's Poison Sting heads straight for the helpless group, Brock's {{TP|Brock|Onix}} erupts out of the ground and blocks the attack!<br /> <br /> Brock and Misty hurry towards them with their Pokémon, and Misty has {{TP|Misty|Poliwag}} use {{m|Water Gun}} to get rid of the Sludge. As they prepare to get Farfetch'd back, Sylvester realizes how great of a team Ash and his Pokémon are. However, the fight is not over yet! Weezing and Victreebel use {{m|SmokeScreen}} and Razor Leaf, but then Ash puts down Team Rocket's hopes of finally succeeding by ordering {{AP|Squirtle}} to use {{m|Hydro Pump}} to blow away Weezing's smoke. While Ash's Pokémon attack together, Sylvester expresses the wish to work with Farfetch'd the way Ash works with his Pokémon. Brock explains that Ash's [[Party|team]] act with one mind.<br /> <br /> Heracross {{m|Tackle}}s Team Rocket, sending the leek spinning up in the air. Jessie and Sylvester both dive for it, but only Sylvester comes up with the leek in hand! Farfetch'd sees its Trainer after making that great dive and realizes that maybe he isn't such a bad Trainer after all. Ash asks Sylvester if he's alright, but Sylvester shakes off the dust easily. Now that he knows the power of teamwork, his confidence has grown enormously. He throws the leek to Farfetch'd, who catches it and {{m|Peck}}s Lickitung so hard that it loosens its tongue, freeing Farfetch'd. In a last-ditch attempt, Team Rocket dives toward Farfetch'd, but Sylvester orders Farfetch'd to use {{m|Fury Attack}}. The devastating leek-bashing leaves Team Rocket completely worn out. Before they can run far, Farfetch'd uses Cut to down two big trees in front of Team Rocket's path. With that, Ash wraps things up by having Pikachu use {{m|Thunderbolt}}. Team Rocket blasts off for the umpteenth time, feeling cheated... and still hungry!<br /> <br /> Ash congratulates Sylvester for getting Farfetch'd to use Cut, and Misty and Brock comment on how well the pair worked as a team. Encouraged by Ash and the gang, Sylvester asks Farfetch'd to cut one of the trees into blocks for charcoal. After pausing to orient itself, like a true Cutting master, Farfetch'd executes a serious of slashes, creating many perfectly-shaped blocks of wood. Yet again, Ash and his friends have helped a Trainer and his Pokémon become a solid team.<br /> <br /> At the end of the day, Sylvester's father expresses his appreciation of his son's work and how very proud of him he is.

But things start to seem brighter when the power of the Unown starts to change the world around her into a fantasy land. She soon lives in a crystal palace, and has the Legendary Entei as a dad! There's only one thing missing from the equation—a mother. So Molly ends up claiming someone else's mom for her very own: Delia Ketchum, Ash's mom!<br /> <br /> Ash was expecting to have a fun time in the town of Greenfield, but now he must venture into a vast crystal wasteland in order to rescue the person who means the most to him. Brock, Misty, and Pikachu are right there by his side, but it won't be easy—Molly wants to stay in her fantasy world forever, and Entei will do whatever it takes to make that happen!&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> In a mansion in the [[Johto]] town of [[Greenfield]], well-known researcher [[Spencer Hale]] reads a story about {{p|Entei}} to his daughter [[Molly Hale|Molly]]. They play around and have fun until being interrupted by an e-mail. [[Schuyler]], Spencer's assistant, says that he has made a discovery in some desert ruins. Spencer heads to these ruins, but during their research, he mysteriously disappears into a portal to [[Unown dimension|another dimension]].<br /> <br /> Schuyler returns to Greenfield and discusses the sad news with {{mov|David|3=03}}, the Hale mansion's butler. Molly overhears them from another room and becomes distraught. She takes tiles with mysterious letters out of a box and lays them on the ground, forming the words &quot;papa,&quot; &quot;mama,&quot; and &quot;me&quot; with them. Suddenly, the letters begin to glow, and a portal opens in the ruins where Spencer disappeared. A swarm of {{OBP|Unown|M03}} emerge from the portal, exit the ruins, and enter another portal up in the night sky. They appear again above Molly, and begin covering the inside of the mansion in waves of crystalline structure. Molly is happy to play with them, but looks at Entei in the storybook and laments her missing father. Fulfilling Molly's desires, the Unown create for her an {{OBP|Entei|M03}} to be her &quot;papa.&quot;<br /> <br /> Elsewhere, {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} meet a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who introduces herself as {{OBP|Lisa|M03}}. Ash agrees to have a battle with her, which ultimately ends in a draw. The Trainers and Pokémon have lunch after the battle. Brock asks Lisa if there is a [[Pokémon Center]] nearby, and Lisa tells them that there is one in Greenfield. Misty says that she has always wanted to go there, which Lisa states as well. Misty explains that she was told that Greenfield has beautiful fields and a huge mansion. Some time later, when they arrive at the top of a hill on the outskirts of the town, they find much of the town covered in large crystals. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} surveys Greenfield through binoculars and is just as shocked by the bizarre phenomenon.<br /> <br /> As Ash and {{ashfr}} walk through Greenfield, a TV news crew reports about the strange things happening in Greenfield and whether it has anything to do with Professor Hale's recent disappearance. In [[Pallet Town]], [[Delia Ketchum|Ash's Mom]] and {{p|Mr. Mime}} watch the news story. Delia goes to the refrigerator and looks at pictures from years ago that show {{an|Professor Oak}}, herself, and a younger Ash, along with the Hale family. At [[Professor Oak's Laboratory|his lab]], Professor Oak watches the news report. Delia meets up with him to talk about what is happening, and he decides to head to Greenfield to investigate. Deila joins him, worrying about Spencer and Molly Hale.<br /> <br /> At the Pokémon Center, the reporter says that reinforcements have arrived to help solve what is going on. A car pulls up, and Professor Oak and Delia come out, much to everyone's surprise. Back at the mansion, Molly observes their actions through a TV and remembers Delia. She tells Entei that she wants to have a mom as well, and Entei agrees. At that moment, Delia explains to Ash that Spencer used to work at the Pokémon lab with Professor Oak before leaving to become a Pokémon researcher.<br /> <br /> Entei runs across the fields, crystallizing the ground as it runs toward Ash and the group. {{AP|Pikachu}} senses something coming and prepares to attack. Entei enters the scene and quickly hypnotizes Delia, making her think she is Molly's mother. Delia faints and falls onto Entei, who takes her and runs off, but not before Pikachu grabs onto its billowing mane. Ash and his friends try to go after Entei, but it is too fast. Pikachu shocks Entei, but it does nothing and Pikachu is thrown to the ground. Brock stops Ash from chasing further after Entei since they do not know how dangerous it is. Ash collapses to the ground, frustrated that he could not stop Entei from taking his mom.<br /> <br /> Back inside the mansion, Entei tells Molly that it has brought her what she wished. Delia wakes up, surprised that Molly thinks she is her mother. Molly asks Entei if they can stay together forever, to which Entei agrees once again. Entei then shows Molly that the crystallization is growing bigger, and Molly thinks it is very beautiful.<br /> <br /> Professor Oak explains to everyone that it was an Entei that took Delia away. Schuyler, who has also met up with them, suggests that the Unown are responsible for creating the Entei, and that Molly is inside the mansion somewhere.<br /> <br /> A TV crew films a bulldozer trying to break down all of the crystals around the mansion, but Molly tells them to go away and the Unown create more crystals to make the bulldozer crash. The driver abandons the vehicle and barely escapes being crystallized too. Shortly afterward, Professor Oak receives an email from Molly claiming that she is together with &quot;her mom and dad&quot;, and that everyone should go away and stop bothering them. With her mother and father disappeared, no one understands how this is possible.<br /> <br /> Ash decides to head towards the mansion to rescue his mom. Misty gets Ash to stop, and says they will all go together to the mansion. Lisa gives them a [[Pokégear]] so that they can keep in contact with the Pokémon Center. They head to the mansion by walking through a small stream of water that was not crystallized. From their balloon, Team Rocket look on with binoculars, but Entei appears on top of a crystallized hill and uses {{m|Fire Blast}} to dispatch them. Entei returns to the mansion to tell Molly that the intruders are gone, not knowing that Ash and his friends continue forth.<br /> <br /> The news crew reports that a balloon (Team Rocket's, to be precise) was shot down, and that nothing can get through the crystal formations to reach the mansion. They then spot a {{p|Noctowl}} flying up the waterfall close to the mansion. {{AP|Noctowl}} brings {{AP|Bulbasaur}} and {{AP|Chikorita}} to the top of the waterfall so that the two can pull everyone else up using {{m|Vine Whip}}. Professor Oak notices that Ash is the one climbing up the waterfall, and Lisa explains to him that he is going after his mother.<br /> <br /> Molly sees Ash as well, and wonders why he is trying to get into their house. Delia breaks out of her trance, sees Ash climbing up the waterfall, and yells for him to get down from there. Molly notices Ash's Pikachu and his other Pokémon, and wonders if he is a Pokémon Trainer and has other Pokémon. Delia remains perplexed as to why Molly sees her and Entei as her parents.<br /> <br /> As Ash and his friends approach the entrance to the mansion, the Pokégear rings and Ash answers the call. Professor Oak asks Ash what he thinks he is doing. Ash says that he should have talked to him first, and the Professor responds by saying that they will discuss it later. Schuyler tells Ash that they have figured out the cause of these events, explaining that the Unown have the ability to read living creatures' thoughts, including people, and create an alternate reality. He thinks that the Unown made Molly's wishes come true and created the crystal formation.<br /> <br /> Ash and Brock bring out {{AP|Cyndaquil}} and {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} to create a hole in the crystallized door of the mansion's garden house using {{m|Flamethrower}}, but the hole quickly repairs itself. They use Flamethrower again, but Misty and Ash send out {{TP|Misty|Staryu}} and {{AP|Totodile}} to keep the hole open with {{m|Water Gun}}. Pikachu, Misty, and Brock then enter the hole through the Water Gun torrent. Ash grabs Staryu and Totodile and jumps through the hole with them before it closes.<br /> <br /> A flight of crystallized stairs returns to normal, which Misty thinks is the Unown changing reality. They continue up the stairs and find themselves in a grassy field. Team Rocket breaks through the crystallized barrier into the midst of the Unown, which they think they can sneak by without being noticed.<br /> <br /> Observing Ash and the group, Entei asks Molly if she wants them to go away, but Molly shakes her head and says that she wants to have a [[Pokémon battle]] with them, but does not think she is old enough. Entei says she can have that battle if she so wishes, prompting Molly to fall asleep thinking of having a battle. Entei disappears, which surprises Delia, and heads toward Ash and his friends with Molly on its back. Molly does not think she is old enough to be a Pokémon Trainer, but Entei tells her that she only has to believe that she is, which transforms Molly into an adult.<br /> <br /> Molly and Entei meet the group and she asks if they are Pokémon Trainers. Ash demands to know where his mom is, and Molly says that Ash is no fun at all. Misty comments that this young woman is too old to be Molly, but Brock reminds her that this world was created by the Unown from Molly's dreams. Ash agrees to battle her, but Brock tells him to continue up the stairs while he battles instead. Entei runs across the field to create a battlefield while Misty and Ash run up the stairs.<br /> <br /> They decide that it will be a 3-on-3 battle. Brock selects {{TP|Brock|Zubat}}, whereas a crystal [[Poké Ball]] forms in Molly's hand and releases a {{p|Flaaffy}}. Zubat uses {{m|Supersonic}} to {{Status|confuse}} Flaaffy, then swoops in with {{m|Wing Attack}}. Flaaffy sways out of the way and responds with {{m|Headbutt}}, which misses. Before Zubat can turn around, Flaaffy takes it out with {{m|Thunder Shock}}. Brock switches in Vulpix and Molly chooses {{p|Teddiursa}}. Teddiursa knocks Vulpix back with {{m|Dynamic Punch}}, but it lands on its feet. The two trade blows using {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Fury Swipes}}, but Teddiursa eventually throws Vulpix to the ground.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket runs up the stairs after Ash and Misty. Vulpix and Teddiursa tackle each other in midair and land, but Vulpix collapses. Brock then releases {{TP|Brock|Onix}}, so Molly switches to {{p|Phanpy}}. Despite its small size, Phanpy sends Onix flying with {{m|Rollout}}.<br /> <br /> Ash and Misty continue up the stairs to the mansion. Delia looks through Molly's storybook and asks her if she has seen it. Molly explains that her father reads it to her every night. Delia looks at the photographs, and asks her if she gets very lonely. Molly says sometimes, but now that she has a mom and dad, she does not feel lonely any more. Delia then sees a picture of the sun over some flowers, as the next scene shows Ash and Misty in a dream version of that picture, surrounded by the ocean.<br /> <br /> Molly appears in front of Ash and Misty, and asks who will be battling her next. Ash volunteers again, but Misty says he should go on while she battles instead. When Misty reveals that she is a Gym Leader, Molly is surprised that a Trainer does not have to be an adult to run a Gym, and then transforms herself from an adult into a ten-year-old. Misty tells Ash that the real Molly must still be at the top of the mansion, and that he should continue on. Misty makes up the rules for the battle: since she is a Water-type Pokémon Trainer, they will only use {{type|Water}} Pokémon. A giant wave crashes ashore and turns the beach into a seabed, but they quickly realize that they can breathe underwater since Molly dreamed for that to be possible. Ash continues up the stairwell with Pikachu.<br /> <br /> Molly brings out {{p|Kingdra}} to battle [[Misty's Goldeen]]. Kingdra surrounds Goldeen in {{m|Smokescreen}} and follows up with Headbutt, which Goldeen dodges. Goldeen tries to use {{m|Fury Attack}}, but Kingdra dodges it and knocks Goldeen out with another Headbutt.<br /> <br /> [[James]] asks [[Jessie]] how they are able to breathe underwater, and she says to just keep going and not ask stupid questions. {{MTR}} [[Breaking the fourth wall|breaks the fourth wall]] when he wonders if they will get a bigger part in the next movie.<br /> <br /> Next, Molly's {{p|Mantine}} faces Misty's Staryu. Mantine uses {{m|Tackle}}, but Staryu dodges. Mantine uses {{m|Whirlpool}} to trap Staryu and piles on more damage with {{m|Bubble}}. Staryu uses {{m|Rapid Spin}} to escape the Whirlpool. Mantine and Staryu go back and forth hitting each other with {{m|Take Down}} and Tackle. Ash reaches the top of the stairs before the battle ends, leaving its outcome unknown.<br /> <br /> Ash meets up with his mom, who tells him that Entei left a while ago. Ash explains that it was Entei who brought her there, and that the Unown created this mess from Molly's imagination. He then tells her that they should leave. Delia wakes Molly up and explains to her that she is not her real mother, and that she is really Ash's mom. They tell her that they have to get out of the mansion now, but Molly cries out loud and refuses to go with them.<br /> <br /> The Unown create a red light and cause large crystal pillars to appear in Molly's room, separating Molly, Delia, and Ash. Ash tries to go with his mom, but Entei shows up and Molly tells it that Ash is trying to take her mother away from her. Entei makes a barrier of pillars to separate Ash and Delia.<br /> <br /> Entei tells Ash to leave the mansion or else he will be forced out, but Ash releases Totodile to battle. Entei asks Ash if he thinks he can possibly defeat it, and Ash says that he will not lose to an illusion. Totodile uses Water Gun, which Entei dodges and answers with Flamethrower, knocking Totodile out. Ash brings out Cyndaquil to attack with Flamethrower, but Entei's Flamethrower easily overpowers Cyndaquil.<br /> <br /> Ash admits that Entei is strong, but says that he refuses to lose to an illusion from a little girl's imagination. Entei yells that it is no illusion, roars, and stomps the ground as a blizzard starts to blow inside of the mansion. The crystal pillars grow larger, the Unown's red light grows bigger, and the pages of the storybook start flipping. Entei says that it is Molly's father and must protect her. Entei charges as Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}, which has no effect on Entei. Entei uses Flamethrower, and they keep attacking each other back and forth and dodging. Delia realizes that only Molly can stop everything by remembering her real mother and father.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket comes up through the hole and notices how cold the room is. Two attacks cause an explosion, forcing them to duck out of the way.<br /> <br /> Entei aims a {{m|Fire Blast}} at an exhausted Pikachu. Ash jumps in to protect him, but Entei's attack blasts them through the wall and they fall. Fortunately, they are saved by [[Ash's Charizard]], who had seen Ash and the disaster on the news earlier and come from [[Charicific Valley]] to help. They go back into the room and Ash explains to Entei that he and his Pokémon work together, like a family. Entei threatens to destroy this family. It clashes with Charizard, knocking it into Ash. He is nearly sent off the edge, but his friends and Team Rocket grab him before he falls. Ash says to Molly that if she comes with them, that she would be able to have her own Pokémon, but she says that she already has real Pokémon of her own.<br /> <br /> Ash tells Molly that Entei cannot take the place of her real father, but Entei says it is her real father. Entei and Charizard continue battling each other, using Flamethrower back and forth. At one point, the Flamethrower attacks create an explosion, scaring Molly and pushing Charizard backward. Charizard dodges Entei's Fire Blast and trades Flamethrower attacks with it. Entei uses Fire Blast to break a hole in the wall and jumps outside. Charizard and Ash follow and keep attacking with Flamethrower. Entei jumps and lands on newly-created spikes.<br /> <br /> After many Fire attacks, Entei is caught in a Flamethrower and launched onto another pillar. Ash tells Entei that it should not keep Molly captive, and Entei responds that it must do as she wishes. Another clash of Fire Blast and Flamethrower ignites a frightening explosion. Entei uses Fire Blast once more, hitting Charizard and sending it crashing through the ceiling and back onto the floor of the room. Entei presses on Charizard's neck and prepares to finish it off with Fire Blast, but Molly steps in and asks Entei to stop fighting.<br /> <br /> Brock and Misty explain that she is a great Pokémon Trainer, and that it is important to know when to stop a battle. With her instincts, she could become a [[Gym Leader]] some day. Ash says to her that now matter how hard the battles are, they always stay friends. Even though the battles are tough, the friends are real. He asks her to come with them, which Delia says is what her father would want. With this, Molly decided that she wants everything to be real again. The crystallized pillars start disappearing and the Pokémon she battled with disappear. Entei explains that it was an illusion created by the Unown, but since Molly wants things to be real again, it must go.<br /> <br /> Suddenly, havoc erupts as crystal spikes emerge everywhere, posing a threat to everyone. Ash calls Professor Oak, who tells him that he should leave because the Unown have lost control of their psychic energy. However, he and everyone else in the Pokémon Center are forced to evacuate before the building is engulfed by crystal formations. Entei creates a pathway to the stairs so that they can exit through the hole that they came in through. Amid the dangerous crystal spikes and destabilizing surroundings, the group continues running down the stairs.<br /> <br /> The group arrives at the hall containing the Unown. Ash tries to reach them, but is bounced back by a protective barrier. Charizard tries to break through, but with the same result. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but it also cannot break through. Even when Pikachu and Charizard use Thunderbolt and Flamethrower together, the barrier forces them back. Entei breaks into the room and uses Flamethrower to create a pathway so it can get through to the Unown.<br /> <br /> Entei says to Molly that it was happy being her father, and that the last thing it could do for her is to take her out of the mansion. Entei tells her that it was created from her dreams, and that if she fully believes in Entei, that there is nothing it cannot do. Entei tries to break the barrier, but is bounced back. It uses Flamethrower to try to break through, but that also fails. Entei again tries to run and break through the barrier, asking Molly to help. Entei says to Molly to believe in it, so Molly yells &quot;You can do it, Entei!&quot; as Pikachu and Charizard help.<br /> <br /> Entei uses Flamethrower to finally break through the barrier and the ball of light around which the Unown swarmed. The bright light shines upon everyone, then dims to reveal Entei in a green aura. Entei says it must go and that Molly must keep Entei in her dreams. Entei crystallizes and disappears. The letter tiles fall to the ground and glow blue as the Unown disappear into a portal. The crystal structure begins reverting, eventually returning Greenfield to normality.<br /> <br /> The Unown return to the ruins where they were discovered, and enter the portal to their own dimension. This frees Professor Hale, sending him back into the ruins where he disappeared. Everyone heads outside of the mansion and basks in the true beauty of Greenfield. Police cars containing everyone that was in the Pokémon Center approach the house. Molly looks up to the skies, sees a cloud shaped like Entei, and quietly thanks it for everything.<br /> <br /> Noticing the presence of law enforcement, Team Rocket concludes that they cannot exit the mansion just yet. Jessie is happy for the little girl, saying that she is adorable and indomitable just like her. James says that Entei is a powerful and inscrutable like him, and Meowth just finds himself lovable. They do not care that they did not capture a single Pokémon because they will have a chance next time.<br /> <br /> As the credits roll, Professor Hale returns to the mansion, Charizard and Lisa depart, and Ash and his friends go on the road again. Molly plays with a real Teddiursa by the mansion's pond, and then sees that her papa has returned and brought along her mother as well. The Hale family happily reunites.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * [[Ash's Charizard]] briefly returns from the [[Charicific Valley]].<br /> * [[Brock's Zubat]] is revealed to know {{m|Wing Attack}}.<br /> * [[Misty's Staryu]] is revealed to know {{m|Rapid Spin}}.<br /> ===Debuts===<br /> * {{p|Entei}}<br /> * {{p|Unown}}<br /> * {{p|Teddiursa}}<br /> * {{p|Flaaffy}}<br /> * {{p|Phanpy}}<br /> * {{p|Mantine}}<br /> * {{p|Kingdra}}<br /> * {{p|Aipom}}<br /> * {{p|Granbull}}<br /> * {{p|Girafarig}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> * [[Ash Ketchum]]<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * {{Tracey}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * {{Delia}}<br /> * {{an|Professor Oak}}<br /> * [[Officer Jenny]]<br /> * [[Nurse Joy]]<br /> * [[Spencer Hale]]<br /> * [[Molly Hale]]<br /> * Molly's mother<br /> * [[Schuyler]]<br /> * {{OBP|David|M03}}<br /> * {{OBP|Lisa|M03}}<br /> * {{jo|Liza}}<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Bulbasaur}} ({{OP|Ash|Bulbasaur}})<br /> * {{p|Charizard}} ({{OP|Ash|Charizard}})<br /> * {{p|Chikorita}} ({{OP|Ash|Chikorita}})<br /> * {{p|Cyndaquil}} ({{OP|Ash|Cyndaquil}})<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}})<br /> * {{p|Noctowl}} ({{OP|Ash|Noctowl}})<br /> * {{p|Goldeen}} ({{OP|Misty|Goldeen}})<br /> * {{p|Staryu}} ({{OP|Misty|Staryu}})<br /> * {{p|Onix}} ({{OP|Brock|Onix}})<br /> * {{p|Zubat}} ({{OP|Brock|Zubat}})<br /> * {{p|Vulpix}} ({{OP|Brock|Vulpix}})<br /> * {{p|Entei}} ([[Entei (M03)|illusion created by the Unown]])<br /> * {{p|Unown}} ([[Unown (M03)|movie]])<br /> * {{p|Mr. Mime}} ({{Delia}}'s; [[Mimey]])<br /> * {{p|Teddiursa}} ([[Molly Hale|Molly]]'s; new)<br /> * {{p|Teddiursa}} (Molly's; illusion created by the Unown)<br /> * {{p|Flaaffy}} (Molly's; illusion created by the Unown)<br /> * {{p|Phanpy}} (Molly's; illusion created by the Unown)<br /> * {{p|Mantine}} (Molly's; illusion created by the Unown)<br /> * {{p|Kingdra}} (Molly's; illusion created by the Unown)<br /> * {{p|Aipom}} ({{OBP|Lisa|M03}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Girafarig}} ({{OBP|Lisa|M03}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Quagsire}} ({{OBP|Lisa|M03}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Granbull}} ({{OBP|Lisa|M03}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Butterfree}} ({{OBP|Lisa|M03}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Mankey}} ({{OBP|Lisa|M03}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Charizard}} ({{jo|Liza}}'s; [[Charla]])<br /> <br /> ==Cast==<br /> {{cast/h|Johto}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Ash Ketchum|disp=Ash|Veronica Taylor|Satoshi|Rica Matsumoto|サトシ|松本梨香|top=yes}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Ash's Pikachu|disp=Pikachu|Ikue Ohtani|Pikachu|Ikue Ohtani|ピカチュウ|大谷育江}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Brock (anime)|disp=Brock|Eric Stuart|Takeshi|Yūji Ueda|タケシ|うえだ　ゆうじ}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Misty (anime)|disp=Misty|Rachael Lillis|Kasumi|Mayumi Iizuka|カスミ|飯塚雅弓}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Jessie|Rachael Lillis|Musashi|Megumi Hayashibara|ムサシ|林原めぐみ}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|James|Eric Stuart|Kojirō|Shin'ichirō Miki|コジロウ|三木眞一郎}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Meowth (Team Rocket)|disp=Meowth|Maddie Blaustein{{!}}Addie Blaustein|Nyarth|Inuko Inuyama|ニャース|犬山イヌコ}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Entei (M03)|disp=Entei|Dan Green|Entei|Naoto Takenaka|エンテイ|竹中直人}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Molly Hale|Amy Birnbaum|Me Snowdon|Akiko Yajima|ミー・スノードン|矢島晶子}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Spencer Hale|Dan Green|Sully Snowdon|Naoto Takenaka|シュリー・スノードン博士|竹中直人}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Lisa (M03)|disp=Lisa|Lisa Ortiz|Rin|Ai Katō|リン|加藤あい}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Schuyler|Ted Lewis{{!}}Ed Paul|John|Hirohide Yakumaru|ジョン|薬丸裕英}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Delia Ketchum|disp=Delia|Veronica Taylor|Hanako|Masami Toyoshima|ハナコ|豊島まさみ}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Professor Oak (anime)|disp=Professor Oak|Stan Hart|Dr. Okido|Unshō Ishizuka|オーキド博士|石塚運昇}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Tracey Sketchit|disp=Tracey|Ted Lewis{{!}}Ed Paul|Kenji|Tomokazu Seki|ケンジ|関智一}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Officer Jenny|disp=Officer Jenny|Lee Quick|Junsar|Chinami Nishimura|ジュンサー|西村ちなみ}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Nurse Joy|disp=Nurse Joy|none|Joy|Ayako Shiraishi|ジョーイ|白石文子}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|David (M03)|disp=David|none|David|Kōichi Yamadera|デイビッド|山寺宏一}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Reporter (Trainer class)|disp=Reporter|none|Reporter|Yōko Sōmi|リポーター|沢海陽子}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Cameraman (Trainer class)|disp=Cameraman|none|Cameraman|Koichi Sakaguchi|カメラマン|坂口候一}}<br /> {{cast|Johto|Narrator|disp=Narration|Rodger Parsons{{!}}Ken Gates|Narration|Unshō Ishizuka|ナレーション|石塚運昇|bottom=yes}}<br /> |}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> [[File:Composite Unreleased Unown.png|thumb|250px|right|Unknown Unown]]<br /> * The first draft of the movie written by Takeshi Shudō had a completely different plot that dealt with the discovery of a dinosaur fossil which would be brought to live and would go on a rampage through Kanto. This draft was rejected by the producers as being too risky.&lt;ref&gt;http://dogasu.bulbagarden.net/movies/pm_lord_unknown_tower_entei/lord_unknown_tower_entei_mythical_third_movie.html&lt;/ref&gt;<br /> * [[Disputed Pokémon|Some of the Unown]] that appear on Professor Oak's computer have not appeared in any other media. However, since they are just drawings, it is possible that they do not really exist in the [[Pokémon world]], and only exist in the [[Unown dimension]], if at all.<br /> * This is the only movie that does not feature either an {{pkmn2|event}}-only Pokémon or a new Pokémon.<br /> * This is the only [[original series]] movie not to feature a {{type|Psychic}} [[legendary Pokémon]] as the main Pokémon. However, in the movie, {{p|Unown}} are explicitly referred to as legendary Pokémon.<br /> ** Also, since the {{p|Entei}} seen in this movie was not a real Pokémon but merely an illusion, this is so far the only movie not to feature an actual legendary Pokémon (acknowledging the fact that in the games, Unown are not considered legendary).<br /> * Professor Oak's computer's task bar area features Energy symbols from the {{g|Trading Card Game}}.<br /> * In the UK airings of this movie, the line of dialogue when Molly tells her {{p|Flaaffy}} to use {{m|Headbutt}} is removed, but the shot of Flaaffy using the attack is left intact.<br /> * This is the last movie that ends with Jessie and James saying &quot;''ii kanji!''&quot; (&quot;'Good feeling!&quot;), which is the opposite of their Japanese catchphrase, &quot;''ya na kanji!''&quot;, which was translated as &quot;We're blasting off again!&quot;<br /> * An early teaser trailer for this movie, featured in the American VHS release of ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' refers to the third movie as ''Lord of the Unknown Tower'', which is the translation of the original Japanese sub-title of the movie.<br /> * A Japanese trailer for the movie features a very brief shot of [[Mewtwo (M01)|Mewtwo]] at the entrance to a cave, looking out into a thunderstorm. This could be an indication that Mewtwo was going to appear at some point during this movie's development.<br /> ** Also, at one point in development, this movie was going to feature a [[Animals in the Pokémon world|Tyrannosaurus Rex]]. This idea was scrapped as more Generation II designs were revealed.<br /> * This movie, along with the Pikachu short ''[[PK07|Pikachu &amp; Pichu]]'', marks the first appearance of Ash's {{TP|Ash|Totodile}} and {{TP|Ash|Noctowl}} for the American audience. This is because ''[[EP151|The Totodile Duel]]'' and ''[[EP154|Fowl Play!]]'', in which Ash captures Totodile and Noctowl respectively, did not air in America until after this movie was released, ''The Totodile Duel'' in May 5, 2001 and ''Fowl Play!'' in April 28, 2001.<br /> * The identity of the woman who returned home with Spencer Hale was not revealed in the movie itself, but was confirmed in the screenplay to be her mother. This also acted as one of the reasons why [[Takeshi Shudo]] retired from making Pokémon movies after this movie as well as the start of his retirement from any Pokémon anime-related media, as he, upon learning who she was by getting a copy of the screenplay, mentioned that Sonoda had fundamentally misunderstood the point behind his screenplay, stating that had his own mother been alive and he been in Molly's shoes, he would have never abducted another person's mother.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> [[File:Hale report M03.png|thumb|250px|right|The report from Professor Hale]]<br /> * Professor Hale's report on the Unown contains numerous mistakes. Not only is the species spelled as &quot;Unknown&quot;, but many spelling and grammar mistakes are made, as it is a {{wp|Engrish|rough translation of Japanese}}.<br /> * In the Brazilian Portuguese dub, Misty states that she was the {{ci|Vermilion}} Gym Leader instead of {{ci|Cerulean}}.<br /> * In the DVD commentary, [[Michael Haigney]] incorrectly states that Entei can talk due to it being a {{2t|Fire|Psychic}} Pokémon. Entei is actually a pure Fire-type Pokémon, while its ability to talk was due to it being an construct of the Psychic-type Unown.<br /> * When Entei, Pikachu and Charizard are trying to break the barrier, the inside of Brock's mouth is the same color as his skin.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * The dub adds in a voiceover (implied to be Spencer's) declaring itself to be Entei, since Molly thought Entei was her dad when the Unown start creating it. In the original version, there was no voiceover. Similarly, the Entei is speaking with a distinct echo filter throughout the dub (implying it was only speaking via telepathy), when in the original film, it spoke normally.<br /> * When meeting up with Ash and friends and relaying Hale and Delia's history, Delia and Ash originally mentioned that he occasionally helped out with her homework. The dub replaced this with Ash pointing out that he eventually moved on to become a big Pokémon expert (something that was implied but not directly stated in the Japanese version).<br /> * In the scene where Liza and Charizard watch the breaking news report, the reporter explicitly identified the Pokémon as an Entei and only referred to Delia as &quot;a woman on the scene.&quot; In the dub, the opposite occurred, with the reporter identifying Delia by name, but being unable to identify the Pokémon that abducted her.<br /> ** Due to the news report, Team Rocket are able to identify Entei upon encountering it. In the dub, they do not.<br /> * Originally, Team Rocket went to the mansion to try and plunder it of any treasure, independent of Ash and his friends's presence. The dub made it seem as though they decided to enter the estate simply because Ash and his friends were going in and thinking there was some important Pokémon inside for them to steal.<br /> ** After their encounter with Entei and landing, the Japanese version explicitly states that the tower they landed in was actually a different tower from the one Ash and his friends were currently at. The dub does not directly indicate such was the case.<br /> * When Brock challenges Molly to a battle, he enters a sequence of puns relating to the Rock type, with Molly expressing mild amusement at &quot;rock and roll.&quot; Originally, he mentioned he was a breeder and the way a Pokémon is raised is important for both the Trainer and the Pokémon, with Molly agreeing about its importance.<br /> * Originally, Ash tells Charizard to use {{m|Fire Spin}} against Entei. The dub doesn't specify the attack.<br /> * In the dub, Ash tells Charizard that they need to get Molly out of the mansion. Originally, he was actually trying to plead desperately to Entei that if their fight continues, Molly will be alone again.<br /> * By the time Entei battles with the Unown, the dub has Molly stop calling Entei her papa and refer to it by its species name. Originally, she still called it Papa even after the battle.<br /> * Entei's line before sacrificing itself, of telling Molly to continue believing in it, if she wished, was added by the dub.<br /> * Originally, the scene when Spencer Hale returns from the Unown world was part of the end credits. For the English dub, this scene was moved after Greenfield was restored and before the scene where Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Brock, Charizard, and Molly come out from the mansion after Greenfield's restoration.<br /> ** The 4Kids staff stated that they did this re-ordering because western audiences tend to leave the theaters without watching the closing credits. Therefore, the producers were worried that if the audience did leave before watching the credits, then they would assume that the film ended with Molly remaining an orphan.<br /> * In the original version, Spencer Hale's wife's presence was never directly stated in the film, although guidebooks revealed that she had in fact been hospitalized. However, in the English dub, her absence was explained as her having gone missing while studying the Unown. As a result, several references to his wife were added:<br /> ** The dub strongly implies that his obsession with the Unown stemmed from his wife's disappearance.<br /> ** The news report reporting on the phenomena indicates that Molly's mom had disappeared two years prior to the events of the film.<br /> ** In the Japanese version, the reporters commenting on the phenomenon say it seemingly originated from the Hale residence, with Delia recognizing the name. The dub adds an implication that Hale's wife had disappeared chasing a Pokémon, with Delia demanding to know how much more Hale is going to go through before his troubles are over.<br /> ** Delia, when relaying Hale's connection to Ash and herself, mentions that his wife disappeared and implies that led to Hale's estate being crystallized.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Epilang|color=DDDDDD|bordercolor=FFCB49<br /> |bg={{tt|Покемон 3: Филмът|Pokémon 3: The Movie}} <br /> |zh_cmn={{tt|結晶塔的帝王|Emperor of the Crystal Tower}}<br /> |cs={{tt|Pokémon 3: Podlehněte kouzlu Unowna|Pokémon 3: Succumb to the Spell of Unown}}<br /> |da={{tt|Pokémon 3 - Truslen fra Unown|Pokémon 3 - The Threat from Unown}}{{tt|*|movie audio and Pokémon TV}}&lt;br/&gt;{{tt|Bliv forhekset af Unown!|Get Bewitched by Unown!}}{{tt|*|VHS back cover}}<br /> |nl={{tt|Pokémon 3: In de Greep van Unown|Pokémon 3: In the Grip of Unown}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Pokémon de Film 3|Pokémon the Film 3}}{{tt|*|Pokémon TV}}<br /> |fi={{tt|Pokémon 3: Unownien loitsu|Pokémon 3: Spell of the Unown}}{{tt|*|VHS/DVD release and Pokémon TV}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Pokémon 3 - Kristallitorni|Pokémon 3 - Crystal Tower}}{{tt|*|TV release}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Pokémon elokuva 3|Pokémon movie 3}}{{tt|*|Pokémon TV}}<br /> |fr_ca={{tt|Pokémon 3: Le Film|Pokémon 3: The Movie}}<br /> |fr_eu={{tt|Pokémon 3: Le sort des Zarbi|Pokémon 3: The Spell of the Unown}}<br /> |de={{tt|Pokémon 3 - Im Bann des Unbekannten|Pokémon 3 - Under the Spell of the Unknown}}{{tt|*|discontinued}}&lt;br/&gt;{{tt|Pokémon 3 - Im Bann der Icognito|Pokémon 3 - Under the Spell of the Unown}}<br /> |hu={{tt|Pokémon 3 - Az öntudatlan betűi|Pokémon 3 - The Senseless Letters}}<br /> |is={{tt|Pokémon 3: Töfrar Unown|Pokémon 3: Unown's Spell}}<br /> |it={{tt|Pokémon 3 - L'Incantesimo degli Unown|Pokémon 3 - Spell of the Unown}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Vittime dell'incantesimo degli Unown|Victims of the Spell of Unown}}{{tt|*|VHS back cover}}<br /> |ko={{tt|결정탑의 제왕|The Emperor of the Crystal Tower}}<br /> |no={{tt|Pokémon Filmen 3: Bli Trollbundet av Unown|Pokémon Film 3: Be Enchanted by Unown}}<br /> |pl={{tt|Pokémon 3 - Zaklęcie Unown|Pokémon 3 - The Unown Curse}}<br /> |pt_br={{tt|Pokémon 3 - O Feitiço dos Unown|Pokémon 3 - Spell of the Unown}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Pokémon 3 - O Feitiço do Unown|Pokémon 3 - Spell of the Unown}}{{tt|*|Pokémon TV}}<br /> |pt_eu={{tt|Pokémon 3 - O Feitiço do Unown|Pokémon 3 - The Spell of Unown}}<br /> |ru={{tt|Покемон 3: Чары Аноунов|Pokémon 3: Spell of the Unown}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Покемон 3: Заклятие Аноунов|Pokémon 3: Spell of the Unown}}{{tt|*|Alternative title}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Покемон: Повелитель кристальной башни|Pokémon: Lord of the Crystal Tower}}{{tt|*|TV title}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Покемон Фильм 3|Pokémon Film 3}}{{tt|*|Pokémon TV}}<br /> |sr={{tt|Pokemon 3 - Cini nepoznatih|Pokémon 3 - Making Unknown}}<br /> |sk={{tt|Pokémon 3 - Kúzlo Unownov|Pokémon: Spell of Unown}}<br /> |es_la={{tt|Pokémon 3: El hechizo de los Unown|Pokémon 3: The Spell of the Unown}}<br /> |es_eu={{tt|Pokémon 3: El hechizo de los Unown|Pokémon 3: The Spell of the Unown}}<br /> |sv={{tt|Pokémon 3 - Unowns förtrollning|Pokémon 3 - Spell of the Unown}}&lt;br&gt;{{tt|Pokémon Filmen 3|Pokémon Film 3}}{{tt|*|Pokémon TV}}<br /> |tr={{tt|Pokémon 3.

It first aired in Japan on February 7, 2002 and in the United States on February 15, 2003.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_26-talkin-bout-an-evolution/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Ash and friends discover a red Gyarados, unknowingly uncovering a plot by Team Rocket to control the secrets of Pokémon evolution. To ensure their silence, Team Rocket attempts to capture the children, but is foiled by a member of an elite Pokémon defense organization, who releases the children with instructions to continue on their way and leave the dangerous job of ending this Team Rocket experiment to adults like himself. Ash and friends assent at first, but before long, unable to ignore the compassion he feels for the red Gyarados that seemed to be in such pain, Ash decides to return and lend a hand.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are walking down the road to [[Mahogany Town]] when all of a sudden {{AP|Pikachu}} feels sick, followed soon by {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}. Ash starts to wonder what's going on, but he thinks it's probably just a thing that comes and goes. Soon some {{t|Bug}} Pokémon drop in near Misty, but they appear sick too. A sick looking {{p|Rattata}} and {{p|Oddish}} also appear. They all wonder what's going on. The group reaches the [[Lake of Rage]] and try to see if there's anything about the lake that could be causing the sickness. All of a sudden a [[Red Gyarados]] appears from the water, startling everyone, first because it's a Gyarados, and second because it's red. Within moments of its appearance, Gyarados fires out a {{m|Hydro Pump}} towards the group, which misses.<br /> <br /> Soon an unfriendly-looking group of people comes by. Ash notices it's [[Team Rocket]], and the leader simply laughs wondering what a bunch of kids are doing. He sends out a {{p|Fearow}} to take care of them and Ash releases {{AP|Totodile}}. Just before Totodile can do anything, he suddenly grows tired but the Fearow remains strong. The Fearow dives in with a {{m|Drill Peck}} but just before the Pokémon can hit, a beam fires towards the Fearow from a newly-arrived {{TP|Lance|Dragonite}} and its Trainer. Seeing this, Team Rocket decides to flee. The Trainer takes Ash and his friends to another part of the forest around the lake and Ash thanks him. Misty notices that the man is [[Lance]] from the [[Pokémon League]]. They all wonder what he's doing in a place like this and comment on their progress towards becoming [[Pokémon Master]]s. One last thing Ash mentions is to help the Red Gyarados, which immediately Lance says no. He explains that it would be too dangerous for Ash, especially since the Team Rocket members were no ordinary grunts. Ash protests, but Lance still refuses. <br /> <br /> Somewhere else along the forest around the lake, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} stumble along, groaning about their next meal and win. Meowth notices something in the distance that looks like a building. With a building, there's got to be some food around there they can swipe. The building however is a [[Team Rocket HQ]], and inside is the man from before, [[Professor Sebastian]], addressing himself to a superior, another major Team Rocket leader, {{TR|Tyson}}, who is assigned to capture the infamous Red Gyarados. Upon further inspection of the security systems, Jessie, James, and Meowth are caught on camera. After walking in a hall, they fall for a trap that seals them in a hallway behind two walls of bars. Then Tyson comes by only to see who exactly they are. Jessie, and James say they're a part of Team Rocket obviously and a grunt walks by and says that they are legitimate Team Rocket members, but have been demoted to rookie rank for making little to none contributions to the organization. Jessie and James negotiate for a while and convince Tyson that they're the important ones. <br /> <br /> While Ash and friends walk along the road to Mahogany once more, Brock tries to talk with Ash. However Ash seems like he can't stand there and wait for things to get better. He wants to help the Gyarados, whether or not it is dangerous. <br /> <br /> Back at the base, a boat's getting ready for the operation to begin. Just behind one of the docking hangers, Lance hides and waits for a chance. An unsuspecting Rocket grunt walks by and Lance grabs him, takes his uniform and goes onto the boat disguised. Back on the boat, Professor Sebastian explains that [[Project R]] is about to begin, but he needs a couple of &quot;expendable&quot; grunts for the first part of the job. Tyson knows the perfect ones. He goes over toward the mess hall where Jessie, James, Meowth, and Wobbuffet are stuffing their faces and he says that they get an &quot;important&quot; assignment: find the red Gyarados. Everyone assembles on deck, Jessie, James, and Meowth are off to find the red Gyarados, but they all start to argue about the whole Gyarados thing. Soon enough, an angry red Gyarados comes towards them and Jessie, James, and Meowth swim off back to the boat, where all of them break surface. As soon as the target is on sight, a Team Rocket member handling a net gun fires it and surrounds the red Gyarados and Jessie, James, and Meowth! Professor Sebastian gives a signal and a power shock is delivered through the netting, shocking both Gyarados and Team Rocket.<br /> <br /> The boat starts to go with the catch, but Ash and his friends come just in time. Ash sends out Totodile, and Misty sends out {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}}. They both swim to the net, and Totodile {{m|Bite|chomps}} the net and Jessie's hair, while Poliwhirl tries to rip it. Lance notices them, thinking Ash is crazy. Seeing the two Pokémon, Sebastian sends out for another device, which triggers a giant Radar back at Team Rocket Headquarters that sends waves out towards to the area. Soon Totodile and Poliwhirl get tired and let go of the net. Ash realizes it's something at the HQ that's doing this. They start to go over there. Before anything can happen, Tyson catches them and hands them over to the hands of Sebastian. Ash demands to know what's going on and what are they going to do with the red Gyarados. Sebastian explains the whole concept behind Project R, short for Project Revolution. The whole idea was that the Gyarados had a strange property in it that made it red. The aim of Project R is to force Pokémon into evolving or try to achieve the &quot;red&quot; state. Thus, the whole Rocket faction would achieve an army of evolved and above-average Pokémon at their disposal. Later Tyson congratulates Jessie, James, and Meowth for their work, but it seems he has other plans for them. <br /> <br /> The Gyarados is later loaded onto a truck which Lance is on, along with Tyson and Sebastian. It drives off, leaving the lake, and Ash, behind.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} meet [[Lance]], the [[Pokémon League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}.<br /> * The group encounter a [[Red Gyarados]] at the [[Lake of Rage]], which is a result of [[Team Rocket]]'s latest scheme of forcing Pokémon to [[Evolution|evolve]].<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * [[Lance]]<br /> * {{TR|Tyson}}<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP235.png|thumb|right|200px|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Lance]]<br /> * {{TR|Tyson}}<br /> * [[Professor Sebastian]]<br /> * {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP235.png|thumb|200px|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Marowak}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Gyarados}} ([[Red Gyarados|red]]) ''(Japan)'' <br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}})<br /> * {{p|Poliwhirl}} ({{OP|Misty|Poliwhirl}})<br /> * {{p|Fearow}} ({{TR|Tyson}}'s)<br /> * {{p|Dragonite}} ({{OP|Lance|Dragonite}})<br /> * {{p|Magikarp}} ([[Red Gyarados|evolves]]; flashback)<br /> * {{p|Gyarados}} (newly evolved; [[Red Gyarados]])<br /> * {{p|Caterpie}}<br /> * {{p|Weedle}}<br /> * {{p|Rattata}}<br /> * {{p|Oddish}}<br /> * {{p|Spinarak}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * The episode title seems to be a reference the {{wp|Tracy Chapman}} song &quot;{{wp|Talkin' 'bout a Revolution|Talkin' 'Bout a Revolution}}&quot;.<br /> * In this episode, Team Rocket uses a variation of their {{motto}}.<br /> * This episode is similar to ''[[DP021|Ya See We Want An Evolution!]]''.

It was first broadcast in Japan on February 14, 2002 and in the United States on February 22, 2003. <br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_27-the-rage-of-innocence/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Before they can oppose Team Rocket's evil plan to gain control of the Pokémon of the world, Ash and friends must escape from a Team Rocket holding pen. With their Pokémon rendered unable to fight by a sinister Team Rocket technology, this would be an impossible task—impossible that is if Jessie and James had not been fortuitously chosen to watch over them. When, sure enough, Jessie and James slip up, Ash and friends jump on the opportunity to escape. Together with Lance and his Dragonite, they must not only stop Team Rocket from perfecting their Pokémon Evolution Inducement machine, but also somehow quell the rage of the red Gyarados, as it threatens to destroy a nearby town.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> After capturing a [[Red Gyarados]], {{TR|Tyson}} and his cohorts travel back to [[Mahogany Town]] to continue their studies on the {{p|Gyarados}}, so they can perfect their Evolution Inducement Ray. [[Lance]], disguised as a [[Team Rocket]] member, stops following the others and makes a call to [[Officer Jenny]] in Mahogany Town to inform her of Team Rocket's hideout. After the call ends, Lance heads back to the [[Lake of Rage]]. <br /> <br /> After being captured by Tyson, {{Ash}} yells to be let out of the cell, and [[Jessie]] and [[James]] say that they're in charge of guarding the door. Finally, {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} wake up, but when Ash asks if Pikachu could break down the cell with a {{m|ThunderShock}}, Ash finds that he's still too weak to do any damage. With Pikachu now awake, Jessie and James say that they're now going to take him to the boss. Ash, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} hold their ground, but Jessie sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} with a {{m|Poison Sting}} to break them up. Jessie tries to unlock Pikachu's restraint, but accidentally unlocks all of their restraints, allowing Ash to send out {{AP|Cyndaquil}} with a {{m|SmokeScreen}}. After the smoke clears, Jessie, James, Arbok, and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} find that they have been put into the restraints. <br /> <br /> Now feeling better, {{MTR}} joins Jessie and James on the chase for the [[twerps]]. Arbok uses a Poison Sting to stop them and then Jessie orders Arbok to {{m|wrap}} them, but Arbok is blown away by [[Lance's Dragonite]]'s {{m|Thunder Wave}}. Arbok tries to use {{m|Acid}}, but Dragonite's {{m|Twister}} sends them blasting off. <br /> <br /> Lance tells the kids that the Evolution Inducement Ray has to be destroyed, so he hits it with Dragonite's {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Immediately afterward, Lance and the others get in the car and drive to Mahogany Town.<br /> <br /> Tyson receives a call from Jessie and James telling him that the machine had been destroyed. Jessie and James order a 50-man backup, but Tyson hangs up on them. While transporting the Gyarados via helicopter, the Evolution Inducement Ray wears off on the Gyarados, causing it to thrash around and making the helicopters crash into the water. The Gyarados swims away, and while driving beside the water, Ash spots it. Ash gets out to possibly calm the Gyarados, but Gyarados shoots a {{m|Hydro Pump}} at him. Lance orders Dragonite to calm the Gyarados, but Tyson pulls up and orders his men to follow the Gyarados while he stays behind. Ash, Misty, and Brock run after the Gyarados despite Lance's orders. Tyson challenges Lance to a battle, but Lance easily defeats Tyson's two {{p|Fearow}} with his Dragonite. Officer Jenny comes and arrests Tyson for violating conservation laws. <br /> <br /> Once again, Team Rocket captures Gyarados with a net and shocks it into submission. They pull it out of the river, but Ash sends out {{AP|Bayleef}} with a {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut the net. A grunt tries to catch the kids with a net, but Gyarados' Hyper Beam blows the grunts away. Ash tells Gyarados to go back to the river, but Jessie and James show up in the Meowth Balloon and catch Gyarados with another net. Ash jumps and grabs onto the net to save the Gyarados, but Meowth tries to shake him off unsuccessfully. Gyarados uses Thrash again and breaks the net free from the balloon. Gyarados continues down the river, but Team Rocket say they'll catch Pikachu anyway, but Pikachu easily defeats Arbok and sends Team Rocket blasting off with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}.<br /> <br /> The trio continues following the Gyarados who is using Hyper Beam along the river side. Because Gyarados is heading straight for the center of town, Ash needs to do something quick. Ash tries to talk the Gyarados into becoming calm, but Gyarados tries to attack them with Hyper Beam. [[Pryce|An old man]] appears and orders his {{TP|Pryce|Dewgong}} to use {{m|Ice Beam}}, stopping Gyarados from going any further. He tells them that Pokémon and humans are not meant to be friends, and it's putting them in danger, but Gyarados turns away and goes into the opposite direction; Ash and {{ashfr}} follow.<br /> <br /> Down the river, Lance's Dragonite is trying to fight the Gyarados. Eventually, with Thunder Wave, Twister and Hyper Beam, Gyarados faints, and Lance captures it with a [[Poké Ball]]. <br /> <br /> The episode ends with Team Rocket being sent to jail, and Lance flying off on his Dragonite with the trio waving goodbye.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> * {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} meet [[Pryce]].<br /> * [[Lance]] {{pkmn2|caught|catches}} the [[Red Gyarados]].<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> ====Humans====<br /> * [[Pryce]]<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP236.png|thumb|right|200px|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * [[Officer Jenny]]<br /> * [[Lance]]<br /> * {{TR|Tyson}}<br /> * [[Professor Sebastian]]<br /> * [[Pryce]]<br /> * {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP236.png|thumb|200px|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Dunsparce}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Dragonite}} ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Bayleef}} ({{OP|Ash|Bayleef}})<br /> * {{p|Cyndaquil}} ({{OP|Ash|Cyndaquil}})<br /> * {{p|Totodile}} ({{OP|Ash|Totodile}}, recap)<br /> * {{p|Arbok}} ({{OP|Jessie|Arbok}})<br /> * {{p|Dragonite}} ({{OP|Lance|Dragonite}})<br /> * {{p|Gyarados}} ([[Red Gyarados]], [[Lance]]'s; new)<br /> * {{p|Fearow}} ({{TR|Tyson}}'s, ×2)<br /> * {{p|Dewgong}} ([[Pryce]]'s)<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * Because of the circumstances, Brock does not flirt with the [[Officer Jenny]] that appears in this episode.<br /> * Jessie references He-Man and X-Men.

Towards the As Yet Unseen Sky!!''), is the 211th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on August 16, 2001 and in the United States on September 21, 2002.<br /> <br /> {{spoilers}}<br /> <br /> ==Blurb==<br /> &lt;!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/05_02-fly-me-to-the-moon/--&gt;<br /> &lt;i&gt;Our heroes discover an island on which the Pidgey population—long protected by environmental regulation and free from predators—has grown to unusually stout proportions and virtually abandoned any desire for flight. There Ash and friends find one Pidgey, however, in which the desire to soar through the heavens burns more fiercely than even in Pidgey from beyond this island. Anxious to see this Pidgey achieve its dreams, the young trainers join with the Pidgey's trainer and follow the Pokémon in a jet-assisted hot air balloon, tracking its flight as the Pidgey climbs higher into the stratosphere than any Pokémon in history.&lt;/i&gt;<br /> <br /> ==Plot==<br /> {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} set off exploring the first island of the [[Whirl Cup]] for a while. {{an|Misty}} spots four {{p|Corsola}} and starts going off with her little speech about being the best {{t|Water}} [[Pokémon Trainer]] there is. Although she wants a Corsola, she can't get one because she doesn't have a boat. A man comes by and says it would be impossible either way, pointing out the {{m|whirlpool}}s all around. He says he's [[Wilbur]], one of the people who live on the island. He invites them over to his place, which is across a river. As they get to the bridge (a rope bridge), no one really wants to go. Misty goes on first for some reason and everyone follows. A wind begins to blow and it spins the bridge around and throws them to the other side. Afterward, Wilbur calls out and a flock of {{p|Pidgey}} come towards him. The Pidgey don't look normal, they look chubbier. {{TRT}} scopes them out from above, seeing that there could be another good catch for the day.<br /> <br /> When they reach Wilbur's house, another Pidgey soars by them and lands on the roof. Wilbur says that's his special Pidgey, [[Orville]]. When they come inside, there's a painting on the wall with a few Pidgey flying towards the sun. Wilbur explains that the other Pidgey are overweight, he really doesn't have a clue why. They call up {{an|Professor Oak}} and he explains that it's probably just their eating habit.<br /> <br /> Later Wilbur starts to explain about Orville. A while ago when Orville was still a fledgling, he really got interested in that painting. It also set his aim to {{m|fly}} to the sun, which Wilbur seemed to understand. So he decided to train Orville to fly, which started off to be a good start then improved. One day while Wilbur was [[Pokémon training]] with Orville, he decided to hang-glide towards the ocean and see if Orville was capable. Orville managed for the first few minutes but couldn't keep up and started to lag down towards a whirlpool. Orville then noticed the sun, which reminded him of the painting and soon Orville was able to fly back up and with ease.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket, overhearing this, devised a plan that could get them both Orville and {{AP|Pikachu}}. After Wilbur was done, Team Rocket arrived in disguised. They made a proposal that they could help Orville reach his goal, no charge, and they could monitor him from the [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|balloon]]. The deal seemed to be too good to pass up so Wilbur agreed. Later that night, {{MTR}} came over to where Orville was sleeping and started to talk with him, giving him a headset so that they could get communication during the flight tomorrow.<br /> <br /> The next day, everyone went inside the balloon and began the ascent. [[James]] activated the rocket boosters and they went high very fast. After the short ascent, Orville took off, going upwards. Meowth made relay conversations during the whole time. While they were watching Pidgey, Ash seemed to notice that he was going for something, a flock of {{p|Spearow}}! Orville went through them still going upwards and the Spearow started to give the chase, but they couldn't catch up to him. Then a {{p|Fearow}} took charge and started to chase after Orville. Seeing that this might cause Orville to fall if he would be attacked, Ash had Pikachu give it a {{m|Thunderbolt}}.<br /> <br /> Soon they were pretty high up, everyone had to put on oxygen masks as they watched Orville make his way farther up. Meowth continued the conversation with Orville. Soon they were so high up that even Pikachu and {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} who didn't need the masks needed them. Then they saw that Orville had reached an altitude so high, he was growing frost all over. Despite this, Orville kept aiming for the sun. Orville kept thinking as he went and then decided, it was over, he done it. Orville went down for a fast dive towards the ground then finally met altitude with the balloon. Everything looked alright, except for the fact that Orville went through the balloon to break the fall. The balloon started to descend slowly and Orville was in dire need of oxygen, so Meowth grabbed a mask and put it on Orville, and he soon woke up. Except now the hole got bigger and they were plunging towards the ground. The other Pidgey on the ground noticed that the balloon was falling fast. They all started to gather up under the balloon and started jumping up as if they were trying to fly. They managed to {{m|headbutt}} the basket, breaking the fall.<br /> <br /> Soon everything was alright for Wilbur and Orville. Orville soon became a hero to the other Pidgey. Meanwhile one of the rocket boosters started off automatically, sending Team Rocket blasting off. The group said their goodbyes and headed off to the next town.<br /> <br /> Team Rocket had crashed onto a cliff tree and is hanging. {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} comes out from one of the brush but they wonder where Meowth is. Meowth, sitting on the top branch, was talking to Orville about the moon and maybe he should aim for that.<br /> <br /> ==Major events==<br /> {{animeevents}}<br /> <br /> ===Debuts===<br /> <br /> ==Characters==<br /> ===Humans===<br /> [[File:PMTV EP211.png|thumb|right||200px|{{tt|Pocket Monster TV|Who's That Pokémon}}]]<br /> * {{Ash}}<br /> * {{an|Misty}}<br /> * {{an|Brock}}<br /> * [[Jessie]]<br /> * [[James]]<br /> * {{an|Professor Oak}}<br /> * [[Wilbur]]<br /> <br /> ===Pokémon===<br /> [[File:WTP EP211.png|thumb|right||200px|Who's That Pokémon?]]<br /> [[Who's That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Magmar}} ''(US and international)'', {{p|Pidgey}} (Orville) ''(Japan)''<br /> <br /> * {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})<br /> * {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})<br /> * {{p|Togepi}} ({{OP|Misty|Togepi}})<br /> * {{p|Wobbuffet}} ({{OP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}})<br /> * {{p|Pidgey}} ([[Wilbur]]'s; [[Orville]])<br /> * {{p|Pidgey}} (multiple; [[Giant Pokémon|giant]])<br /> * {{p|Corsola}} (×4)<br /> * {{p|Spearow}} (flock)<br /> * {{p|Fearow}}<br /> <br /> ==Trivia==<br /> * This episode's English title is taken from the song ''{{wp|Fly Me to the Moon}}'' by {{wp|Bart Howard}}.<br /> * This episode was initially going to be called &quot;The Passionate Pidgey.&quot;<br /> * The English version of this episode was written by [[Maddie Blaustein]], Meowth's voice actress at the time.<br /> * In the Japanese version, the [[Pocket Monster TV]] commercial break transition/eyecatch changes to a second version from this episode.

This may mean that [[Pudgy Pidgey Isle]] is an allusion to the {{wp|Galapagos Islands}}, where {{wp|Charles Darwin}} observed multiple unique species of {{wp|Finch|finches}} and developed his theory of {{wp|evolution}}.<br /> * In the final scene where Meowth is asking Orville what the moon is like, he says &quot;Had to be there huh?&quot;; this may be a reference to Neil Armstrong who would allegedly tell unfunny jokes about the moon, and follow them up with &quot;I guess you had to be there&quot;.<br /> <br /> ===Errors===<br /> * While Orvile is above the earth, one shot of the moon shows it as a crescent, while in the next scene the moon is full.<br /> * Misty uses the word &quot;wherefore&quot; as if it means &quot;where&quot; twice; it actually means &quot;why&quot;.<br /> <br /> ===Dub edits===<br /> * Although Wilbur introduces himself in the original version, he doesn't in the dub.<br /> <br /> ==In other languages==<br /> {{Epilang|color=DDDDDD|bordercolor=FFCB49<br /> |zh_cmn={{tt|波波與大波波，飛向未曾見過的天空！|Pidgey and the Enormous Pidgey, Fly toward the As Yet Unseen Sky!}}<br /> |de={{tt|Hoch hinaus!|Above all!}}<br /> |nl={{tt|Vlieg Met Me Mee|Fly With Me}}<br /> |fr_eu={{tt|Jusqu'à la lune|To the moon}}<br /> |he=לעוף אל הירח{{tt|la'uf el hayare'akh|Flying to the moon}}<br /> |it={{tt|Sempre più in alto|Higher and higher}}<br /> |pt_br={{tt|Voando até a Lua|Flying to the Moon}}<br /> |pt_eu={{tt|Viagem à Lua|Trip to the Moon}}<br /> |es_la={{tt|¡Llévame a la luna!|Take me to the moon!}}<br /> |es_eu={{tt|Llévame volando hasta la luna|Fly me to the moon}}<br /> |pl={{tt|Lećmy na księżyc|Let's fly to the moon}}<br /> |hi=Pidgey ने की मून की सेर {{tt|''Pidgey ne ki Moon ki sair''|Pidgey goes for a ride to moon}} {{tt|*|Hungama dub}}<br /> }}<br /> <br /> {{EpicodePrevNext|<br /> prevcode=EP210 |<br /> prevtitle=Around the Whirlpool |<br /> nextcode=EP212 |<br /> nexttitle=Takin' It On The Chinchou! |<br /> series=Original series |<br /> colorscheme=Johto | }}<br /> {{Project Anime notice}}<br /> [[Category:Original series episodes|211]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes written by Takeshi Shudō|211]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes storyboarded and directed by Hiroshi Haraguchi|211]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes storyboarded by Hiroshi Haraguchi|211]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes directed by Hiroshi Haraguchi|211]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes focusing on Meowth|211]]<br /> [[Category:Episodes animated by Katsumi Hashimoto|211]]<br /> <br /> [[de:Hoch hinaus!]]<br /> [[fr:EP211]]<br /> [[ja:無印編第211話]]<br /> [[pl:EP211]]<br /> [[zh:EP212]]</div>
