The episode starts with {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} settling down for lunch while still on the road to [[Veilstone City]]. The gang decide to let their Pokémon out for the day, and soon everyone is starting to set up for lunch... everyone except [[Ash's Chimchar|Ash's newly obtained Chimchar]] who is confused on what to do since everyone is in a happy mood. It remembers meal times with Paul, which involved Paul feeding Chimchar directly from a tin while angrily telling it to hurry up. As everyone else begins eating, Chimchar has to be prompted by Ash making it clear the Pokémon is having trouble adjusting to its new circumstances. | The episode starts with {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} settling down for lunch while still on the road to [[Veilstone City]].

They begin fighting furiously and Seviper, despite attacking with venom at its mortal enemies, finds itself outnumbered and outmatched. [[Jessie]] returns Seviper to its Poké Ball but it refuses to give up and comes straight back out. Jessie continually tries to get Seviper back into the Poké Ball but to no avail. Then the wild Zangoose send Team Rocket "blasting off again" with {{MTR}} landing in a different area from Jessie and [[James]]. | ||
With most of their Pokémon lounging about, Ash and Dawn go for a sparring match all watched by Meowth as he looks for his teammates. Ash uses his {{AP|Pikachu}} and Dawn uses her {{TP|Dawn|Buizel}}. After a tough match, the two compliment their Pokémon and Chimchar is reminded again of how it once managed to defeat {{TP|Paul|Elekid}} during training, but still got scolded by Paul since it didn't access {{a|Blaze}} to do it. Ash and Dawn decide to have another battle using different Pokémon, as Ash selects Chimchar to battle against [[Dawn's Piplup]]. Despite putting up a tough fight against Piplup, Chimchar loses the battle causing it to be reminded of losing in the Tag Battle Tournament and being cruelly released by [[Paul]]. Ash picks up Chimchar who expects to be criticized, however instead Ash congratulates it on a good battle. This is followed up by compliments from Dawn and Brock as well as cheering from all the other Pokémon. Chimchar is left very nervous and confused, and starts crying since it can't handle the drastic change from a negative owner to positive people. Ash is confused as to why Chimchar would cry when it's getting complimented, and Brock muses that Chimchar mustn't have got many chances to show any emotion while under Paul's ownership. Ash understands, and holds Chimchar while the Chimp Pokémon sobs its heart out. Meowth is also moved by this emotional display and, with tears in his eyes, leaves without incident to continue looking for Jessie and James. | With most of their Pokémon lounging about, Ash and Dawn go for a sparring match all watched by Meowth as he looks for his teammates.

Meowth is still looking for the rest of Team Rocket, when he crosses paths with Chimchar. After convincing it he doesn't want to fight, Meowth tells Chimchar that he knows what it's like to worry, and he dreams of the time when he and the others are finally able to successfully capture Pikachu as then he wouldn't have anything to worry about. Meowth then tells Chimchar it should stop worrying about the past, and instead look to the new, brighter future because it's a very lucky Pokémon. Meowth states to Chimchar that its new friends would do anything, even "give the clothes off their backs" if it really needed it before he leaves. Chimchar is left thoughtful at this new outlook. The next morning, all of the Pokémon start helping out preparing for a meal, and Chimchar is once again left unsure of what to do. Ash calls over to it, asking for help carrying some water from the nearby river to which Chimchar happily agrees to. | Meowth is still looking for the rest of Team Rocket, when he crosses paths with Chimchar.

Later, in the daytime, Team Rocket is shown in their balloon, holding Meowth by his rear end with a "plunger". They state that were going to steal Ash's Pokémon and that meeting Meowth was just a coincidence, then goes through with their plan to capture Ash and his friend's Pokémon, by capturing all of the Pokémon that are out of their Poké Balls. As they begin to fly off, Dawn tries to make her Pokémon return into its Poké Ball, but fails. Meowth says the containers are protected from that possibility, so Dawn sends out her Piplup and commands it to use {{m| | Later, in the daytime, Team Rocket is shown in their balloon, holding Meowth by his rear end with a "plunger".

Seviper gets out of its Poké Ball because it senses the three Zangoose once again. The gang of Zangoose climb up a tree to get to the level of Team Rocket's Balloon. Team Rocket's Balloon falls so Team Rocket ironically hide themselves within the containers that they stole Ash, Dawn, and Brock's Pokémon. However this backfires, as the wild Zangoose attack the container attempting to get to Seviper and pushing it close to the edge of a nearby cliff. Ash and Chimchar arrive back and see what's happening, and Ash tells Chimchar to help. However Chimchar is too frightened to fight the wild Zangoose. So Ash gives a little pep-talk to Chimchar, telling it that while he understands Chimchar is scared, the other Pokémon really need help. Chimchar is reminded of the kindness shown by Ash and the others, and Meowth telling it that the group would do anything to help it if they needed to. Ash tells Chimchar not to worry about the power of Blaze, as it just has to believe it can win. As a result, Chimchar becomes motivated to battle against his fear, the Zangoose. Chimchar uses {{m|Dig}} a few times to confuse the Zangoose and then uses {{m|Flamethrower}} to finish them off. | Seviper gets out of its Poké Ball because it senses the three Zangoose once again.
