The scene starts out as usual, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} walking along a road towards the next town. A [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|blimp]] flies over them, but it's not any old blimp, it's an extraordinarily large blimp. They follow it to the airstrip where a lot of other people gathered around. A man informs to them that the blimp, the Blue May, is like a luxury cruise, and is an impressive two hundred meters in length. The captain walks out but informs of any person with some knowledge of {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} treatment. More obvious Ash and the group go over to offer help.
As {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are walking along a road towards the next town, a [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|blimp]] flies over them. They follow it to the airstrip where a lot of other people have already gathered around. A man explains that the blimp, the Blue May, is a luxury cruise and is two hundred meters in length. The captain then suddenly walks out and asks for anyone who knows how to apply medical treatment, prompting Ash and his friends to volunteer.


They aboard the blimp, which seems to be more like a mansion hall room where Ash is taken. The captain introduces them two women, [[Madison and Alexa]]. {{an|Brock}} gets that love daze again and {{an|Misty}} knocks some sense in him. So onto business, Ash asks them what's wrong. The women explain that their {{p|Kecleon}}, Greeny and Reddy, (Greeny is a green Kecleon, Reddy is a purple Kecleon) are rather quite odd. Ash and the others wonder where they are, since the Kecleon are not with them. Madison speaks out and the two chameleon Pokémon appear from hiding from a vase next to them. They seem tired and lazily hop off the vase to the ground. Brock gives a quick examination and has a solution in a snap. He ruffles through his bag getting out some medicine, giving one to the Kecleon, then a piece of home-made [[Pokémon food]]. Both get an immediate result of being healthy again. Madison and Alexa thank them, sending both sometime afterward to their room. They seem to go on the other things, such as admiring {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}. (Brock butting in with {{TP|Brock|Pineco}})

They reveal themselves, seemingly tired, and lazily hop off the vase to the ground. {{an|Brock}} gives a quick examination and then gets out some medicine. After giving one each to the Kecleon, he provides a piece of homemade [[Pokémon food]]; this combination restores their health. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} plans to hijack the blimp for their own recreational use, but when they breach the cockpit, they are unable to drive it. As a result, they change their plan and decide to loot the blimp.


Later {{TRT}} plots on with another sly plan. They seem to want to hijack the blimp for their own recreational use. Just that when they get to the cockpit, they can't drive it. A lesson learned there when they used the blimp to get to [[Valencia Island]]. But they get another plan, why not just swindle some valuable stuff? They go on to search.
As Ash and Misty show their Pokémon to Madison and Alexa, Team Rocket finds Madison and Alexa's room and starts rummaging through it, with {{MTR}} eventually finding the women's jewelry box. Greeny suddenly snatches it with his tongue and keeps it in his mouth, prompting Team Rocket to attack him. However, both Greeny and Reddy escape after an attendant accidentally stumbles upon the scene. Soon, Ash's group learns that the Kecleon are missing, whilst Team Rocket disguises themselves as attendants to sneak by the blimp.


Ash and Misty start showing some more Pokémon to Madison and Alexa. Brock almost releases {{TP|Brock|Onix}}, but Misty stops him, obviously it won't be a good thing here. Team Rocket finds Madison and Alexa's room and starts to work their way into finding anything. {{MTR}} hits a jackpot, finding the women's jewelry box. Greeny snatches it with his tongue and keeps it in his mouth. Team Rocket soon dog-piles him and tries to get the box out. An attendant comes in the room with caviar for the chameleons seeing Team Rocket trying to pry open Greeny's mouth. Greeny jumps out during a slight pause and cloaks. Both Kecleon run out but accidentally bump into each other on the way. Team Rocket zips out afterward, leaving the attendant confused.
Ash and the others are walking down a metallic hallway when Pikachu notices a red zigzag shape on the wall. They search a dining hall, where Pikachu notices another red zigzag that is moving slightly. It turns out to be Greeny, who flees.


Soon the group gets the warning that the Kecleon are missing, as usual, Ash is up to the job. Team Rocket dresses up as attendants themselves to sneak by the blimp.
Team Rocket finds a storage room and looks inside, finding Reddy. Greeny then runs by, followed by the gang. Reddy and Greeny both run off and Team Rocket is forced to hide into a crate. Eventually, {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} unintentionally gets released, breaking the box.


Ash and the others walk down a metallic hallway, Pikachu noticing a funny red zigzag on the wall. They search out a dining hall and Pikachu notices another funny red zigzag, but it moves slightly. Pikachu informs Ash and Greeny shows himself, running off afterward.
Then, Ash's group heads outside the blimp and sees Greeny up on the balloon. Brock goes after him and gets to the top of the blimp, but Greeny crawls away from his reach. Frustrated, Brock jumps onto the balloon itself. Greeny simply continues climbing up, but Team Rocket catches sight of him and it runs off. Greeny eventually stops at a steep part of the blimp, which makes Team Rocket slip off the balloon.


Team Rocket finds a storage and looks in there, finding Reddy. They get Reddy to open his mouth but it's just a med-kit! But close enough, Meowth starts daydreaming about being "top-cat". Greeny runs by and they notice but soon here the group approaching. Reddy and Greeny run off and Team Rocket dives into a crate. The group walks in, doing another skim around the room, Ash sitting on the box Team Rocket's in. Soon they see the Kecleon run by again and they run after them. {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} unintentionally gets released, breaking the box.
The two Kecleon soon meet, climb down, and run into the airport terminal, with the group, Madison, and Alexa giving chase. They soon decide to split up to cover more ground. Meanwhile, Greeny and Reddy run into Team Rocket in another storage room. In response, they start tossing their contents in their mouths back and forth very fast, with Reddy ending up with the box. Brock also finds both Kecleon, and he chases after them for a while before meeting up with Ash and Misty. They chase them back outside and both Kecleon get cornered. However, Team Rocket attacks before Greeny and Reddy could be captured.


Soon they head outside the blimp, seeing Greeny up on the balloon. Brock goes off being heroic and goes after him, showing off some ninja-like moves. He gets to the top and attempts to reach Greeny but Greeny crawls slightly away. Frustrated, Brock jumps onto the balloon itself. Greeny simply climbs up, but Team Rocket has caught sight of him and runs off. Greeny stops at a steep part, which makes Team Rocket slips off the balloon.
Ash sends out {{AP|Bayleef}} against [[Jessie's Arbok]]. Bayleef misses with {{m|Vine Whip}} and Arbok counters with {{m|Headbutt}}. {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} then comes out and uses its own Headbutt on Arbok. James sends out {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, which uses {{m|Razor Leaf}}. Greeny and Reddy join the battle and deflects the leaves with their tails. Arbok goes for a {{m|Wrap}}, but Reddy uses a {{m|Lick}} attack to stop Arbok, which also releases the jewelry box. Meowth goes after it, but Poliwhirl attacks him with {{m|Double Slap}}. Victreebel moves in, but Greeny uses a Lick attack on Victreebel. Then, both Kecleon use {{m|Psybeam}} to push the two Pokémon back to their owners.

Team Rocket couldn't tell, but James tries a little explanation, which gets them no where. Brock walks around daydreaming what the reward might be for getting Greeny and Reddy back when suddenly, both of them are right there! He chases after them for a while before meeting up with Ash and Misty. They chase them back outside and both get caught in a barrier of people.

Blurb

Ash and his friends stop at an air station to get a closer look at the Leviathan 2, a luxury dirigible taking passengers on a flight around the world. The ship has landed to refuel and the crew needs medical assistance for some passengers' Pokémon, so Brock volunteers to help. The passengers are two wealthy young ladies, Madison and Alexa, whose two Kecleon are suffering from a little airsickness. Brock's remedies make sure the Kecleon, called Greenie and Reddie, are back to normal in no time flat.

Greenie and Reddie are taken back to their stateroom, which Team Rocket then tries to rob of valuables. Greenie snatches a jewelry box back from Team Rocket and the Kecleon flee the room. As reports come in that the Kecleon are running around the ship, our heroes pitch in to help find them—Team Rocket is on the trail too, hoping to get their hands on that jewelry box. The chase leads everyone out of the dirigible, into the air station terminal, and then right back out again.

As Greenie and Reddie exit the terminal, they're surrounded by our heroes and the dirigible's crew. Team Rocket catches up to everyone and tries to grab them. Now it's clear that Greenie and Reddie weren't being mischievous, they were trying to keep the jewelry away from Team Rocket! Their owners join Ash in battling Team Rocket and soon Team Rocket goes blasting off, the jewelry box is recovered, and the dirigible can finish refueling and leave.

Plot

As Ash and his friends are walking along a road towards the next town, a blimp flies over them. They follow it to the airstrip where a lot of other people have already gathered around. A man explains that the blimp, the Blue May, is a luxury cruise and is two hundred meters in length. The captain then suddenly walks out and asks for anyone who knows how to apply medical treatment, prompting Ash and his friends to volunteer.

They board the blimp and are introduced to two women, Madison and Alexa, whose Kecleon, Greeny and Reddy, are being rather odd. They reveal themselves, seemingly tired, and lazily hop off the vase to the ground. Brock gives a quick examination and then gets out some medicine. After giving one each to the Kecleon, he provides a piece of homemade Pokémon food; this combination restores their health. Meanwhile, Team Rocket plans to hijack the blimp for their own recreational use, but when they breach the cockpit, they are unable to drive it. As a result, they change their plan and decide to loot the blimp.

As Ash and Misty show their Pokémon to Madison and Alexa, Team Rocket finds Madison and Alexa's room and starts rummaging through it, with Meowth eventually finding the women's jewelry box. Greeny suddenly snatches it with his tongue and keeps it in his mouth, prompting Team Rocket to attack him. However, both Greeny and Reddy escape after an attendant accidentally stumbles upon the scene. Soon, Ash's group learns that the Kecleon are missing, whilst Team Rocket disguises themselves as attendants to sneak by the blimp.

Ash and the others are walking down a metallic hallway when Pikachu notices a red zigzag shape on the wall. They search a dining hall, where Pikachu notices another red zigzag that is moving slightly. It turns out to be Greeny, who flees.

Team Rocket finds a storage room and looks inside, finding Reddy. Greeny then runs by, followed by the gang. Reddy and Greeny both run off and Team Rocket is forced to hide into a crate. Eventually, Wobbuffet unintentionally gets released, breaking the box.

Then, Ash's group heads outside the blimp and sees Greeny up on the balloon. Brock goes after him and gets to the top of the blimp, but Greeny crawls away from his reach. Frustrated, Brock jumps onto the balloon itself. Greeny simply continues climbing up, but Team Rocket catches sight of him and it runs off. Greeny eventually stops at a steep part of the blimp, which makes Team Rocket slip off the balloon.

The two Kecleon soon meet, climb down, and run into the airport terminal, with the group, Madison, and Alexa giving chase. They soon decide to split up to cover more ground. Meanwhile, Greeny and Reddy run into Team Rocket in another storage room. In response, they start tossing their contents in their mouths back and forth very fast, with Reddy ending up with the box. Brock also finds both Kecleon, and he chases after them for a while before meeting up with Ash and Misty. They chase them back outside and both Kecleon get cornered. However, Team Rocket attacks before Greeny and Reddy could be captured.

Ash sends out Bayleef against Jessie's Arbok. Bayleef misses with Vine Whip and Arbok counters with Headbutt. Poliwhirl then comes out and uses its own Headbutt on Arbok. James sends out Victreebel, which uses Razor Leaf. Greeny and Reddy join the battle and deflects the leaves with their tails. Arbok goes for a Wrap, but Reddy uses a Lick attack to stop Arbok, which also releases the jewelry box. Meowth goes after it, but Poliwhirl attacks him with Double Slap. Victreebel moves in, but Greeny uses a Lick attack on Victreebel. Then, both Kecleon use Psybeam to push the two Pokémon back to their owners. Bayleef next uses another Vine Whip and tosses Team Rocket out into the sky.

The blimp takes off soon afterward and the group heads off to Olivine City for their next destination.

Trivia

  • This episode marks the first anime appearance of a Generation III Pokémon.
  • This is also the first episode to feature Abilities.
  • The purple Kecleon showed in this episode is not a normally colored Pokémon. However, its color is also not that of a Shiny Pokémon.
    • The Kecleon featured in this episode are the same colors as those that run the Kecleon shops in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series. However, the purple Kecleon in the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon series has green-colored outlines on its face, while the purple Kecleon in the anime retains the same colored outlines as normal Kecleon.
  • Meowth's Boss fantasies first appeared mainstream in this episode.
  • In Japan, this was the last episode to air before the debut of Celebi: The Voice of the Forest.
    • Incidentally, a Kecleon would appear in that movie's Pikachu short, Pikachu's PikaBoo, narrowly failing to make Kecleon one of the few Pokémon introduced in the movies or the side series before the mainstream anime.

Errors

  • After Noctowl blows Weezing's SmokeScreen away, Pikachu disappears.
  • When Team Rocket discusses their plans before deciding to go steal things, they think of the idea of stealing the whole blimp, however when in the cockpit, Meowth says "I don't know how to drive a blimp, do you?" and they discard that idea. But in the episodes A Scare in the Air and Poké Ball Peril they do just that.
