{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==
During the night, {{TRT}} sneaks into a garden and snacks on [[Berry|berries]]. They notice an aroma that leads them to a building. On top of it, a caped figure jumps out and attacks with {{m|Magical Leaf}}, sending Team Rocket blasting off.

{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrive in [[Floaroma Town]] as {{an|Brock}} notices all the flowers, {{an|Dawn}} running off to smell them. An elderly woman comes by and tells them about when Floaroma Town was once barren and without any kind of vegetation. Legend has it that a beautiful woman went atop the hill and expressed gratitude, which resulted in flowers growing exponentially. After telling the story, the woman leaves as Dawn notices a sign about a [[Poffin]] cooking class. Ash and Brock do not know what Poffins are, but Dawn explains that they are Pokémon snacks that improve [[Contest category|condition]]s, recounting past experiences helping [[Johanna|her mother]]. Ash associates them with [[Hoenn]] [[Pokéblock]]s, but Brock mentions that they are made differently. Dawn convinces the others to take the class with her.

They go to the location as a {{p|Lotad}} and {{p|Roserade}} take care of the garden. Ash calls inside the house as Dawn notices that he is scaring a nearby Roserade. Ash checks his [[Pokédex]]. [[Forsythia|A woman]] steps out and asks if they are taking the cooking class, introducing herself as Forsythia. Brock is instantly attracted to her, but {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} calms him with {{m|Poison Jab}} and drags him away. She brings them in and gives a quick demo on making Poffins generally. Dawn uses her [[Pokétch]] {{DL|Pokétch|Kitchen Timer}} App to help cook Poffins to the appropriate measure. Forsythia remarks on her solid knowledge, Dawn mentioning her experiences with her mother. Brock tries to talk about helping his family out, but Croagunk's presence is enough to calm him down. Dawn’s timer beeps and she spreads the Poffin onto the mold platter. Meanwhile, Ash is struggling, almost spilling the batter but winding up burning it instead. Everyone finishes making Poffins at the same time, and all three of them bring out their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. {{cat|Dawn's Pokémon}} tries her Poffins, but all three find them horrible. {{cat|Brock's Pokémon}} like his Poffin, but {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}} eats Forsythia's Poffins since his are burnt. He tries to eat them all himself, but he finds it obviously disgusting. Forsythia tries to reassure Ash as Dawn chases {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}, sending one of Dawn’s Poffins outside. It rolls up to {{MTR}} and the Pokémon eats it, instantly perking him up and making him happy. Dawn and Ash wash dishes as Forsythia explains to Dawn that each Pokémon has a Poffin preference and that there is a unique recipe for each. Copying her mother’s recipe would be fine for her {{TP|Johanna|Glameow}}, but it is ill suited for other Pokémon. Meanwhile, Team Rocket decides to take the Poffins to get rich.

Forsythia prepares the group some tea as Roserade serves the plate, but quickly backs away scared. She mentions that Roserade has been very shy and nervous for as long as she remembers. She brings up the story of meeting Roserade, back as a {{p|Budew}}, in a [[Pokémon Center]]. Budew went with Forsythia when it saw the flowers she was holding. Forsythia gave Budew a red scarf to keep it warm, and it quickly [[Evolution|evolved]] to {{p|Roselia}} and finally Roserade.

Suddenly, a giant explosion gets their attention as one of [[Team Rocket's mechas]] steals all the berries and destroys the garden. Team Rocket recites their {{TP|Team Rocket|motto|mottos}}. [[Ash's Pikachu]] uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but it has no effect. [[Jessie's Dustox]] and [[James's Carnivine]] come out, but when Carnivine latches onto James, he sends out {{TP|James|Cacnea}}, but both latch onto him. Dustox uses {{m|Poison Sting}} as Brock's Croagunk uses Poison Sting to block it. [[Dawn's Piplup]] uses {{m|BubbleBeam}} and [[Ash's Turtwig]] uses {{m|Razor Leaf}}, but Cacnea’s {{m|Pin Missile}} and Carnivine’s {{m|Bullet Seed}} blocks the attacks. Roserade runs off and gets the red scarf, quickly exuding confidence. {{TP|Dawn|Aipom|Ambipom}} attacks with {{m|Swift}}, but {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} uses {{m|Counter}} to block. {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} uses {{m|Ice Beam}} but Cacnea uses {{m|Sandstorm}} to block. Team Rocket attempts to leave, but Roserade suddenly attacks with Magical Leaf. Team Rocket remembers last night and associates Roserade with the figure that attacked them. Forsythia recognizes the red scarf and wonders why Roserade is suddenly so aggressive. Lotad talks and Meowth translates that Roserade protects the orchard from bad guys and puts on the scarf to gain confidence.

Ash sends Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}} to rock the mecha, but Meowth deploys baskets to lock everyone but Forsythia down. Dustox uses {{m|Gust}} to pin Roserade, but it jumps off the roof. Meowth tries to take the scarf off Roserade, but Roserade resists. James sends {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}} to use {{m|Tickle}} on Roserade. It works and the scarf comes off, sending Roserade to the ground in fear. Team Rocket attempts to take off, taking Roserade with them. Forsythia runs to block them from leaving, as the others are helpless to help her. Forsythia convinces Roserade that it is powerful even without the scarf. Roserade snaps out of fear and breaks free of the grip, using {{m|Petal Dance}} to shear the tires and the baskets, freeing Ash and his friends. The group attacks with Piplup’s BubbleBeam and Croagunk’s Poison Sting. Pikachu's {{m|Iron Tail}} cuts the basket and releases the captured berries. Roserade’s Petal Dance sends Team Rocket blasting off a second time.

Roserade uses {{m|Sunny Day}} and Lotad uses {{m|Water Gun}} to help repair the damaged garden, fresh plants sprouting in place, much like the legend of Floaroma Town. Dawn prepares another batch of Poffins as her Pokémon are reluctant to eat it. Buneary and Pachirisu try to get Piplup to taste first, but Piplup convinces them to all eat at once. This time, the Pokémon like the Poffins. Dawn learned from Forsythia that she could raise a strong yet beautiful Pokémon like Roserade. Dawn is now inspired to prepare for the next {{pkmn|Super Contest|Contest}}.

== Trivia ==
[[Image:Kitchen_Timer.png|200px|right|thumb|The Kitchen Timer on {{an|Dawn}}'s [[Pokétch]].]]
* The English title of this episode is a reference to the line "Do you know {{wp|the Muffin Man}}?", a classic nursery rhyme.
* This episode originally aired as a one-hour special with ''[[DP024|Cooking Up A Sweet Story!]]''.
* Music from ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'', ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes]]'', and the old Team Rocket theme is used as background music.
* Dawn used the Kitchen Timer on her [[Pokétch]] when she was cooking Poffins.
* Meowth tries a stray Poffin made from Johanna's recipe for Glameow and likes it. This may partly be because {{p|Meowth}} and {{p|Glameow}} are both cat Pokémon.
* Forsythia and her Roserade are seen holding a [[Sprayduck]] on different occasions.
* Kikuko Inoue [[n:Third ANA short, Pikachu's Island of Mischief to be released on DVD|replaces]] Yuriko Yamaguchi, who is [[n:Yuriko Yamaguchi on maternity leave|on maternity leave]].
* A new version of ''[[By Your Side ~Hikari's Theme~]]'' with new animation and a different mix is used as the ending theme.
* An interview with [[Kunihiko Yuyama]] and new ''[[M10|Dialga vs. Palkia vs. Darkrai]]'' footage followed the episode.
* [[Professor Oak's Pokémon lecture]]: [[James's Cacnea]]
** [[Pokémon senryū]]: サボネアは　ふれるとチクチク　トゲトゲよ ''Sabonea wa, fureru to chiku chiku, toge toge yo.'' "{{tt|Sabonea|Cacnea}}, prickly spikes, when it touches."

=== Errors ===

* In the flashback, it is shown that Forsythia's {{p|Budew}} evolved into {{p|Roselia}} and then into {{p|Roserade}} just because it was so happy being around so many flowers. However, in the games, while Budew does evolve into Roselia through [[Happiness]], it only evolves into Roserade when exposed to a {{evostone|Shiny Stone}}.
* The title of this episode has a punctuation error. A question mark should be added at the end.

=== Dub edits ===
* In the Japanese version, there was an original intro for this episode, yet [[The Pokémon Company International|Pokémon USA]] starts out the episode with a cold open format (not present in the Japanese version), and then using the original intro after the theme song is played. This is also true for ''[[DP024|Cooking Up A Sweet Story]]''.

{{spoilers}}

== Synopsis ==
On their way to [[Olivine City]], the gang decides to stop at a lakeside campsite for a break. Ash finishes washing up and is ready for breakfast. He and {{an|Misty}} check on {{an|Brock}} to see if the oatmeal he was preparing was ready yet. Ash then complains that he's tired of oatmeal. Brock doesn't respond and Misty asks if he's okay. When Ash touches him, he falls over. Ash apologizes thinking that he fell over because of his comment about the oatmeal. Misty feels his forehead and discovers that he has a terrible fever.

Ash and Misty take him inside the cabin and get him into bed. All of the Pokémon are watching through the windows and door of the cabin to see what's happening. Ash says that Brock's fever was caused by exhaustion and that he should rest for the day. Misty agrees. All of a sudden Brock wakes up. He tries to get out of bed claiming that there was a lot of work to be done. As soon as he stands up he is struck with dizziness and nearly collapses until Ash caught him. Ash and Misty convince him that he should rest for the day. Brock agrees and tells them to use the notes he made on doing chores.

Later while Ash and Misty were deciding how to do the chores for the day, they are approached by [[Brock's Geodude]] and {{tp|Brock|Onix|Steelix}} who are looking particular eager for something. Misty realizes that this day is the day that Brock usually polishes them. Ash takes on the heavy task of polishing Onix while Misty starts to polish Geodude. While Misty is reading the instructions on how to polish {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon, Ash calls for his {{AP|Totodile}}. He then commands it to use {{m|Water Gun}} to get the job done faster. Onix then struggles around frantically trying to dodge the Water Gun attacks. Misty yells at him and reminds him that Rock Pokémon hate water. Ash tells Totodile to stop and then he and Misty are knocked over with Onix's tail.

Meanwhile, Brock is having a dream that he's in a beautiful meadow with three dancing {{p|Bellossom}}. All of a sudden, his name is being called by three beautiful women. He attempts to meet them but is then struck by a meteor. He soon snaps out of his sleep and sees {{TP|Brock|Pineco|Forretress}} on his chest and {{TP|Brock|Golbat|Crobat}} at his side. Brock thanks them for watching him and then hears Ash and Misty arguing. He decides to go help them but Golbat hits him with a light {{m|Supersonic}} attack and he falls back down in his bed. He realizes that his Pokémon are trying to get him to rest. He is touched by this and decides to rest for their sake.

A while later, Ash decides to go find something to have for lunch. He takes {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, {{AP|Chikorita|Bayleef}}, {{AP|Cyndaquil}}, and {{AP|Totodile}} with him into the forest. They soon come across some apple trees but they don't see any apples. Not far away, [[Team Rocket]] used a vacuum to strip the trees of their apples and had a plan to sell them. Ash sees them and confronts them about it and they do their [[Team Rocket motto|motto]]. They then use the same vacuum to catch Pikachu. A battle then ensues. [[Jessie]] sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} while [[James]] sends out {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, which turns and bites him. Ash tells Totodile to use Water Gun on them. He then tells Cyndaquil to use {{m|Flamethrower}} which releases picture from the case. Ash then commands Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} and sends Team Rocket [[blasting off]]. Afterwards, Ash decides to help himself to the apples they picked.

Back at the campsite, Brock is having yet another dream. This time he's in a clear sky with a few {{p|Butterfree}}. He is then called over by the same three girls from his first dream. As he's running to them, he falls through the clouds. Ash and Misty enter the room to see Brock fall out of bed. Ash and Misty wonder about his strange behavior as he gets back into bed. Ash hands over a plate of cut up apples for Brock to eat. He eats a slice whole and starts to choke on it. Golbat pats his back with its wing to help it go down. Misty explains that Brock must be getting better because his appetite has returned. Still, they recommend that he sleep for the rest of the day. Brock then says he'll try to run faster to catch the girls in his dream.

Dinner time is approaching fast and Misty decides to take on the task. She tries to follow Brock's recipe but realizes she put in salt instead of sugar into the pot. {{TP|Misty|Togepi|Togetic}} brings her a bag of sugar. But then she pours in too much and looks for the salt. {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} brings it her and again she pours too much in so she adds more sugar. Feeling that the recipe is boring, she decides to add some of her own ingredients such as ketchup, mayonnaise, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce among many other things. Later, Misty serves the concoction to Ash and Pikachu, who aren't very enthusiastic to eat it. Ash tells her that he ate too many apples earlier but she doesn't believe him. She tastes it for herself and gets a disgusted look on her face.

Later that night, Ash and Misty decide to sleep outside so that Brock can get a better rest. They then begin to talk about how hard Brock works and that they should be more grateful to him. The two then fall asleep. A little bit later, Team Rocket is seen spying on them as they plan to steal all of their Pokémon. James and {{MTR}} notice Jessie eating something. She shows them the pot of botched stew that Misty had made earlier. She claims that it is the most delicious thing she had ever tasted. Meowth and James decide to help themselves but are disgusted by the taste. Jessie doesn't understand how they could not like it. Soon Bulbasaur, Chikorita, Cyndaquil, and Totodile are awakened by the sound of what they thought was Ash's voice. They look over to a nearby bush and see a cardboard cut out of Ash which they believe to be the real thing. But Bulbasaur knows better and tries to stop the others from approaching it. However it is too late and all four end up caught in a net. Ash and Misty hear all the noise and wake up. Team Rocket then takes off with the four captured Pokémon. Ash and Misty pursue them and take the rest of the Pokémon with them.

Meanwhile, Brock is having yet another dream. This time of a beautiful ocean with a few {{p|Magikarp}} frolicking in it. Again, the same three girls call out his name. When he goes over to meet them, he is hit by a tidal wave and dragged out to sea. He is then awoken by Golbat and Pineco. Brock looks out the window and sees Ash and Misty running off with the Pokémon following. He automatically assumes it's Team Rocket's doing.

While chasing Team Rocket, Ash and Misty fall right into one of their pitfall traps. They then board there balloon, which has jet engines attached to it. Four claws come out and pick up {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}, {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl|Politoed}}, Onix, and Geodude. Now Pikachu is unable to shock them because it might hurt the other Pokémon. Pikachu is soon grabbed as well. When everything looks grim, Golbat suddenly appears and attacks their balloon with {{m|Wing Attack}}. It crashes and all the Pokémon are set free. Brock soon shows up looking much better than he did earlier. Jessie and James send out Arbok and {{TP|James|Weezing}}, respectively. Brock tells Pineco and Golbat to [[Double battle|team up]] and attack Arbok and Weezing. Then he tells Onix to uses Rock Throw. Pikachu soon finishes the job with Thunderbolt and Team Rocket blasts off again.

The next morning, Ash and Misty wake up and notice a delicious aroma in the air. It's none other than Brock's cooking. They tell him that the oatmeal is delicious. Brock says that he feels way better and he wants to start work again today. But then Ash suggests that Brock take another day off to make sure that he doesn't get sick again. He agrees and goes in the cabin. He dreams of the three beautiful girls again. But this time, he catches them.

=== Errors ===
* On the {{tt|[http://www.pokemon.com/#tvmovies_436 corresponding page]|dead link}} on [[Pokémon.com]] the episode was called ''Sick Days'' instead of ''Sick Daze''. This seems to be a mistake as the events in the episode last less than even two days. Moreover, words that are similar to ''daze'' are present in Italian, Spanish and Latin American Spanish translations.
** This [http://www.pokemon.com/us/tv-episodes/season-4/episode-36-sick-daze/ was fixed] after the redesign of the website.
* When Pikachu is in the hole, its cheeks become pink.
* During one of the dreams, the three Bellossom sing, but none of them move their lips.
* When Misty first receives Brock's notebook, the cover is on the right side. However, when she reads it later, the cover is on the left.

{{spoilers}}
== Synopsis ==

{{Ash}} is still upset that he lost his last match. He's been lying in his bed ever since, and {{ashfr|his friends}}, [[Delia Ketchum|mother]], and [[Professor Oak]] are getting worried. {{an|Misty}} comments that he should be happy that he made it as far as he did and goes in to try to cheer him up. She offers to get him something to eat or take a walk, but he refuses. She tells him that she's only trying to help. They start to argue about how good a {{pkmn|Trainer}} Ash really is when Professor Oak comes in. He tells Ash that he should have trained {{AP|Charizard}} better. Misty and Ash start to argue again and {{AP|Pikachu}}, fed up with it all, {{m|ThunderShock}}s everyone in the room.

[[Ritchie]]'s next {{pkmn|battle}} is about to begin. He sits in a locker room and talks to his {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. The door opens and in walk Ash, Misty, and {{an|Brock}}. They wish him luck and the battle begins. Brief battles are shown where {{p|Charmander}} battles against {{p|Rhydon}}, {{p|Butterfree}} against {{p|Venomoth}} and a {{p|Spearow}} against a {{p|Tentacool}}.

Both Trainers are fairly equally matched and they are soon both down to their last Pokémon. Ritchie's opponent, [[Assunta]], sends out {{p|Ivysaur}} and Ritchie sends out [[Sparky]]. As soon as he pops out, Sparky gets a beating by Ivysaur. None of his ThunderShocks are connecting. Ivysaur jumps into the air and unleashes a {{m|SolarBeam}}, hurling Sparky to the ground. Just as he gets up, he is hit by Ivysaur's {{m|Tackle}}. He struggles to get up again, but it is no use. Assunta wins. Ritchie runs up to his Pikachu and makes sure he's OK. In the stands, Ash and his friends are disappointed.

Later, Ash joins Ritchie near a lake. As their Pikachu play, they talk about their losses. Ritchie says that he would've trained harder if he'd known how tough the competition would be. He then comments on how losing is good for Trainers, and Ash realizes how much of a baby he was. He and Ritchie promise to become Pokémon Masters no matter what.

Suddenly, both Pikachu fall into a hole. Ritchie and Ash run over to see what happened, and they too fall into a hole. [[Team Rocket]] appear at the surface and laugh at them. Ash tries to climb up the side, but slips down. When he lands, the bottom falls out and he and Ritchie plummet another few feet. Team Rocket use a cage at the end of a fishing pole and pull both of their Pikachu out of the hole. They try to shock them, but [[James]] tells them that the bars absorb electricity. They start to make their getaway when Ash and Ritchie rise out of the other hole, clinging to their {{AP|Pidgeotto}} and [[Ritchie#Happy|Butterfree]] respectively.

Ash sends out {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, who tries to grab the cage with his {{m|Vine Whip|vines}}. James sends {{TP|James|Weezing}} for a {{m|Smog}} attack. Pidgeotto blows the gas back at Team Rocket with {{m|Gust}} and Ritchie sends out [[Zippo]]. After Bulbasaur frees Pikachu and Sparky with a {{m|Razor Leaf}}, Zippo ignites the gas with a {{m|Flamethrower}}.
As Team Rocket run around in pain, Ash has Pikachu and Sparky recharge the cage, he sends out {{AP|Squirtle}} who extinguishes Team Rocket with {{m|Water Gun}}. Then Ash tosses the cage into their hands where it explodes, blasting Team Rocket into the air.

As the sun sets, Ash and Ritchie congratulate each other. Brock and Misty run up and invite him and Ritchie to dinner, after which they'll go to the closing ceremonies. Later that night, the closing ceremonies begin. Everyone marches back in, waving. [[Mr. Goodshow]] gives each and every one of them the special badge. As this is going on, however, Team Rocket is digging a hole outside. They aim to dig under the field and steal the Pokémon.

Back inside, the top three Trainers (who are shadowed) wave from the stage amid the cheers of the crowd. Team Rocket continues to dig as fireworks go off in the sky. {{MTR}} listens at the ground above and tells [[Jessie]] and James to dig up. Unfortunately for them, a huge bomb falls through. It goes off and Team Rocket is blasted off again.

The next morning, all is quiet. Ash and Ritchie sit in the stands talking. Their Pikachu come running up to them and are warmly greeted. After Ash reminds him of their promise, Ritchie sets off. Ash remembers the highlights of the League games, all from when he saw {{p|Moltres}} at the opening ceremonies to when he lost to Ritchie. He gazes at the sky then he looks over and sees his friends, mom, and Professor Oak. Smiling he asks Pikachu if he's ready to go back to [[Pallet Town]]. He runs over to his friends. His first adventure has now ended, but his next one is just about to begin.

=== Errors ===
* During the flashback of Ash's battles in the Pokémon League, when Ritchie is declared the winner, the scoreboard displays that Ritchie has two Pokémon left, when in fact, he only had one.
* Right after Team Rocket is blasted off, Ritchie, Ash, and their Pokémon celebrate. While the rest of the Pokémon are standing with their trainers, Pikachu and Sparky are reversed.
* When Ritchie turns to Ash at the lake, the stripes on the back of Sparky are missing.
