==Plot==
Continuing towards [[Violet City]], {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} have become lost in the middle of a deep forest. While his companions complain about the situation, Ash immediately tells them to follow him, saying their troubles will be over in no time. Despite his optimism, the gang still cannot find their way out of the forest. Misty then becomes annoyed with the fact that they will most likely be spending the night there.
While on their way to [[Violet City]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} get lost in the middle of a deep forest. While the others complain about the situation, Ash tells them to follow him, saying their troubles will be over in no time. Despite his optimism, the group is still unable to get out of the forest and {{an|Misty}} becomes increasingly frustrated. As the night settles in, eerie sounds echo from the trees, which then appear to gain menacing faces. Frightened by this, the trio runs to another part of the forest. Once again, however, they are confronted with the same trees every way they turn. As they flee, a {{p|Hoothoot}} appears and uses {{m|Foresight}}, returning everything to normal.


Suddenly, eerie sounds echo from the trees. Then, the trees in front of them appear to gain menacing faces. Frightened beyond belief, they run to another part of the forest. Once again, however, they are confronted with the trees every way they turn. As they run away, a {{p|Hoothoot}} appears and uses {{m|Foresight}}, returning everything to normal.
Bewildered, the trio stops to catch their breath. Suddenly, {{Gary}} emerges from the trees and tells them that everything they saw and heard was an illusion. He then commends Hoothoot on a job well done. After scanning Hoothoot with his [[Pokédex]], Ash is mocked by Gary for being unprepared. Gary then advises his [[rival]] to get a Hoothoot if he wishes to make it out of the forest. Confused, Misty asks Gary why he is still in the forest if he has a Hoothoot. Gary tells her that he has been busy {{pkmn2|caught|catching}} Pokémon and lost track of the time. After Gary departs, Ash and his friends search for a Hoothoot, but their efforts are in vain.


Bewildered, the trio stops to catch their breath. From within the trees, [[Gary Oak]] emerges and tells them that everything they saw and heard was an illusion. He then commends Hoothoot on a job well done. After scanning Hoothoot with his [[Pokédex]], Ash is mocked by Gary for being unprepared. Gary advises his rival to get a Hoothoot if he wishes to make it out of the forest. Confused, Misty asks Gary why he is still in the forest if he has a Hoothoot. Gary tells her that he has been busy catching Pokémon and lost track of time. Upon Gary's departure, Ash and the others search for a Hoothoot, but their efforts are in vain.
Out of nowhere, a Hoothoot appears at Misty's feet. Frightened, she shuffles away, but the Owl Pokémon keeps following her. When Ash approaches it, Hoothoot attacks him and runs off. The trio gives chase until they are led to a bizarre stone structure, which {{an|Brock}} believes is another illusion. The trio then continues chasing Hoothoot. Just as it appears Hoothoot will get away, Ash instructs {{AP|Pikachu}} to use {{m|Thunder Shock}}. Before Pikachu could attack, Hoothoot turns around and begins {{m|Peck}}ing Ash's head. It then stops, looks up, and hops to the side of a very old woman. Brock, convinced that it is an illusion, walks up to it and tells Ash that something that ugly couldn't be real.


Out of nowhere, a Hoothoot appears at Misty's feet. Frightened, she shuffles away, but the Pokémon keeps following her. When Ash approaches it, Hoothoot attacks him and runs off. The trio give chase until they are lead to a bizarre rock formation. Brock suggests that it may be another illusion. The trio then continues chasing Hoothoot. Just as it appears Hoothoot will get away, Ash instructs {{AP|Pikachu}} to use its {{m|ThunderShock}}. Before Pikachu attacks, Hoothoot turns around and attacks Ash by {{m|Peck}}ing at his head. It then stops, looks up, and hops to the side of a very old woman. Brock, convinced that it is an illusion, walks up to it and tells Ash that something that ugly couldn't be real.
Angered, the woman responds to Ash and Brock's discussion, assuring the group that she is real, and introduces herself as [[Hagatha and Nagatha|Hagatha]]. She then tells the trio that they will need her help if they want to get out of the forest safely. Back at her house, Hagatha explains that she rents out Hoothoot to people traveling through the forest, as they have the ability to see past the illusions. Unfortunately, she only has one left, and it has never guided a single traveler safely through the forest before. Not wanting to wait until the following morning, Ash picks up Hoothoot, saying that all it needs is a good {{pkmn|Trainer}} like himself. Once again, he is attacked by Hoothoot, who then jumps onto Misty's lap. Hagatha explains that since she was the one who trained it, this Hoothoot only gets along with pretty girls. Ash comments that there aren't any pretty girls around, causing him to be glared at by a furious Hagatha and Misty.


Angered, the woman responds to Ash and Brock's discussion, thoroughly scaring them. She assures the group that she is, in fact, real, and introduces herself as [[Hagatha and Nagatha|Hagatha]]. She then tells the trio they will need her help if they want to get out of the forest safely. Back at her house, Hagatha explains that she rents out Hoothoot to people traveling through the forest, as they have the ability to see past the ghostly illusions. Unfortunately, she only has one left, and it has never guided a single traveler safely through the forest. Not wanting to wait until the following morning, Ash picks up Hoothoot, saying all it needs is a good Trainer like himself. Once again, he is attacked by Hoothoot, who jumps into Misty's lap.

Ash comments that there aren't any pretty girls around, causing him to be glared at by a furious Hagatha and Misty.
Elsewhere, {{TRT}} is also lost in the forest. As Ash and his friends continue with Hoothoot leading the way, Team Rocket decides to steal Pikachu and begins to follow. As Hoothoot leads Ash and his friends back to where the illusions first began, it starts to tremble as blue will-o-wisps begin to appear around them. Ash asks Hoothoot to help, but it doesn't listen. However, when Misty asks, it attempts to use Foresight, but to no avail. Ash then tells Hoothoot to try again, but once more, he is ignored. Misty pleads with the {{type|Flying}} to try for her, and it tries again. This time, the will-o-wisps combine to create a flaming ghoul. Terrified, Hoothoot runs off, followed shortly by Ash and his friends. Team Rocket, who cannot see the fireballs, thinks the trio has lost their minds.


Elsewhere, {{TRT}} are having their own problems navigating the forest. Despite their usage of a map, they seem to be unable to find their way. As Ash and the others continue with Hoothoot leading the way, Team Rocket decides to steal Pikachu.
Upon reaching safety, Ash talks to Hoothoot about being a Pokémon and not giving up. Misty, feeling sorry for Hoothoot, pleads with it to try again for her next time. Unbeknownst to the trio, a rope makes its way around Pikachu, and the {{type|Electric}} is lifted into the trees. Ash grabs Pikachu, causing the both of them to be pulled up. Team Rocket appears, and after announcing their arrival, they slam Ash into a tree. {{MTR}} locks Pikachu in a box, and the trio begins their escape on a wooden boat along a zip-line. However, after the rope breaks, Team Rocket falls to the ground and Pikachu lands in Ash's arms. Jessie and James send out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, respectively, while Ash calls out {{AP|Bulbasaur}}.


As it leads the trio back to where the illusions first began, Hoothoot starts to tremble as blue fireballs begin to appear around Ash and the others. Ash asks Hoothoot to help, but it doesn't listen. However, when Misty asks, it attempts to use Foresight, but to no avail. Ash then tells Hoothoot to try again, but once more, he is ignored. Misty pleads with the {{t|Flying}} and {{type|Normal}} to try for her, and it tries again. This time, the fireballs combine to create a flaming ghoul. Terrified, Hoothoot runs off, followed shortly by Ash, Misty and Brock. Team Rocket, who cannot see the fireballs, think the trio have lost their minds.
However, before Bulbasaur can do anything, Hoothoot starts to shake just as before. Suddenly, a {{p|Dragonite}} appears and Team Rocket gives chase, but Ash and the others cannot see it and are left confused by the trio's behavior. Just then, Ash and his friends find themselves surrounded by multiple copies of Ash. Pikachu, who is confused, responds to Ash by shocking all of them until the real one gets shaken up. Afterwards, a number of different {{t|Bug}} Pokémon begin attacking Misty. Hoothoot runs away, but Ash intervenes and convinces it to help Misty. After Hoothoot uses its [[move]]s, the illusions disappear and a number of {{p|Haunter}} and {{p|Gengar}} are revealed. The group quickly realizes that the {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon are behind the nightmarish illusions. Misty orders Hoothoot use Foresight again, and the Owl Pokémon follows suit. While the Ghost Pokémon are startled, Bulbasaur lands a {{m|Vine Whip}} and Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} to frighten them away. Ash congratulates Hoothoot on overcoming its limit, but it responds by pecking him before returning to Misty's side.


Upon reaching safety, Ash gives Hoothoot a serious talk about being a Pokémon and not giving up. Misty, feeling sorry for Hoothoot, pleads with it to try again for her the next time. Unknown to the trio, a rope has made its way around Pikachu, and the {{type|Electric}} is being lifted into the trees. Ash grabs a hold of Pikachu, causing both to be pulled up. Team Rocket appear, and after announcing their arrive, they slam Ash into a tree. However, their escape plan fails, and Pikachu falls back into Ash's arms. The trio sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Victreebel}} to attack, while Ash calls on {{AP|Bulbasaur}}.
The sun rises and the trio finds themselves back standing at a stone structure like the one seen earlier. When they see Hagatha walking towards them, they wonder if they are still lost. She yells that she is actually Hagatha's twin sister [[Hagatha and Nagatha|Nagatha]]. She then takes them to her house, where they return Hoothoot. Hagatha calls through the videophone, and is relieved to see Ash's group safe. Ash and his friends depart the forest, and continue onward towards Violet City.


However, before Bulbasaur can do anything, Hoothoot starts to shake just as before. Suddenly, a {{p|Dragonite}} appears, and Team Rocket gives chase. Just like earlier, Ash and the others cannot see anything, and are confused by Team Rocket's behavior. Before they can find out what's happening, Ash suddenly appears as multiple copies of himself. Pikachu, who is confused, responds to Ash by shocking all of them until the real one gets shaken up.
Meanwhile, Team Rocket is on an illusory beach, soaking up the sun's rays and failing to realize that it is all an illusion. In reality, they are still in the forest, surrounded by the Ghost Pokémon.
 
Afterward, a number of different {{t|Bug}} Pokémon begin attacking Misty. Hoothoot runs away, but Ash stops it and convinces Hoothoot to help Misty. As Hoothoot uses its moves, the illusions disappear and a number of {{p|Haunter}} and {{p|Gengar}} are revealed. Bulbasaur uses {{m|Vine Whip}} and Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} to frighten away the {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon. Eventually, the trio reach the edge of the forest. However, it appears Hagatha is walking towards them. They wonder if they are still lost, until the woman yells that she is actually Hagatha's twin sister, [[Hagatha and Nagatha|Nagatha]]. Upon returning Hoothoot, Ash and the others depart the forest, and head back towards Violet City.
 
Meanwhile, Team Rocket appear to be on a beach, soaking up the sun's rays. What they don't realize is that it is all an illusion, and they are just back in the forest, surrounded by the Ghost Pokémon.

Blurb

Who would be foolish enough to brave a thick forest in the dead of night without a Hoothoot guide? Certainly not Ash Ketchum, but when he settles for the only guide available—an inept Hoothoot with no sense of direction—maybe he would have been better off alone...

Plot

While on their way to Violet City, Ash and his friends get lost in the middle of a deep forest. While the others complain about the situation, Ash tells them to follow him, saying their troubles will be over in no time. Despite his optimism, the group is still unable to get out of the forest and Misty becomes increasingly frustrated. As the night settles in, eerie sounds echo from the trees, which then appear to gain menacing faces. Frightened by this, the trio runs to another part of the forest. Once again, however, they are confronted with the same trees every way they turn. As they flee, a Hoothoot appears and uses Foresight, returning everything to normal.

Bewildered, the trio stops to catch their breath. Suddenly, Gary emerges from the trees and tells them that everything they saw and heard was an illusion. He then commends Hoothoot on a job well done. After scanning Hoothoot with his Pokédex, Ash is mocked by Gary for being unprepared. Gary then advises his rival to get a Hoothoot if he wishes to make it out of the forest. Confused, Misty asks Gary why he is still in the forest if he has a Hoothoot. Gary tells her that he has been busy catching Pokémon and lost track of the time. After Gary departs, Ash and his friends search for a Hoothoot, but their efforts are in vain.

Out of nowhere, a Hoothoot appears at Misty's feet. Frightened, she shuffles away, but the Owl Pokémon keeps following her. When Ash approaches it, Hoothoot attacks him and runs off. The trio gives chase until they are led to a bizarre stone structure, which Brock believes is another illusion. The trio then continues chasing Hoothoot. Just as it appears Hoothoot will get away, Ash instructs Pikachu to use Thunder Shock. Before Pikachu could attack, Hoothoot turns around and begins Pecking Ash's head. It then stops, looks up, and hops to the side of a very old woman. Brock, convinced that it is an illusion, walks up to it and tells Ash that something that ugly couldn't be real.

Angered, the woman responds to Ash and Brock's discussion, assuring the group that she is real, and introduces herself as Hagatha. She then tells the trio that they will need her help if they want to get out of the forest safely. Back at her house, Hagatha explains that she rents out Hoothoot to people traveling through the forest, as they have the ability to see past the illusions. Unfortunately, she only has one left, and it has never guided a single traveler safely through the forest before. Not wanting to wait until the following morning, Ash picks up Hoothoot, saying that all it needs is a good Trainer like himself. Once again, he is attacked by Hoothoot, who then jumps onto Misty's lap. Hagatha explains that since she was the one who trained it, this Hoothoot only gets along with pretty girls. Ash comments that there aren't any pretty girls around, causing him to be glared at by a furious Hagatha and Misty.

Elsewhere, Team Rocket is also lost in the forest. As Ash and his friends continue with Hoothoot leading the way, Team Rocket decides to steal Pikachu and begins to follow. As Hoothoot leads Ash and his friends back to where the illusions first began, it starts to tremble as blue will-o-wisps begin to appear around them. Ash asks Hoothoot to help, but it doesn't listen. However, when Misty asks, it attempts to use Foresight, but to no avail. Ash then tells Hoothoot to try again, but once more, he is ignored. Misty pleads with the Flying-type to try for her, and it tries again. This time, the will-o-wisps combine to create a flaming ghoul. Terrified, Hoothoot runs off, followed shortly by Ash and his friends. Team Rocket, who cannot see the fireballs, thinks the trio has lost their minds.

Upon reaching safety, Ash talks to Hoothoot about being a Pokémon and not giving up. Misty, feeling sorry for Hoothoot, pleads with it to try again for her next time. Unbeknownst to the trio, a rope makes its way around Pikachu, and the Electric-type is lifted into the trees. Ash grabs Pikachu, causing the both of them to be pulled up. Team Rocket appears, and after announcing their arrival, they slam Ash into a tree. Meowth locks Pikachu in a box, and the trio begins their escape on a wooden boat along a zip-line. However, after the rope breaks, Team Rocket falls to the ground and Pikachu lands in Ash's arms. Jessie and James send out Arbok and Victreebel, respectively, while Ash calls out Bulbasaur.

However, before Bulbasaur can do anything, Hoothoot starts to shake just as before. Suddenly, a Dragonite appears and Team Rocket gives chase, but Ash and the others cannot see it and are left confused by the trio's behavior. Just then, Ash and his friends find themselves surrounded by multiple copies of Ash. Pikachu, who is confused, responds to Ash by shocking all of them until the real one gets shaken up.

Ash congratulates Hoothoot on overcoming its limit, but it responds by pecking him before returning to Misty's side.

The sun rises and the trio finds themselves back standing at a stone structure like the one seen earlier. When they see Hagatha walking towards them, they wonder if they are still lost. She yells that she is actually Hagatha's twin sister Nagatha. She then takes them to her house, where they return Hoothoot.
