Ash and the gang find their way to another town. Ash is wondering where the Pokémon Center might be, so he asks a local woman. Brock has a crush on her, like every other woman, but Misty pulls him away telling him he should stop.

Brock is later at a park filling up a pot with water at a park. A Nidorina comes by to drink but a girl runs after it and trips before the fountain. Brock catches her and ask if she is alright, the girl falls in love with Brock the way he does. Brock is actually scared of her, it seems he never experienced a girl in love with him before. Ash, Misty and Brock, Misty noticing the girl loves Brock but Brock not liking her in anyway. Brock is still left speechless, so Misty pulls him out to have a little talk about the situation. Misty figures it out that Brock has no dating experience and has no idea what to do! The girl takes them to her house and her father answers. They do the introductions, the girl being Temacu. It seems like Temacu is the daughter of a local Pokémon professor. Temacu invites them for dinner and some tea, guess what? Brock still is still nervous and has no idea what to do. So Misty again goes has a conversation with Brock. Temacu takes them for a walk around her house, talking about her Nidorina and Nidorino and some other Pokémon. That's when Team Rocket storms in to get a steal. They catch the Nidorina, Nidorino, Pikachu and the other Pokémon. Ash sends out Totodile to try to free them but Jessie sends out Arbok. The match ends within one hit, Totodile winning, and James sends out Weezing to use SmokeScreen. They try to take off. Everyone tries to find the three, but Temacu tries to find Brock and ends up getting caught in some rope. Misty sends out Poliwhirl to use Bubble to get rid of the smoke. Ironically, the stolen Pokémon are there, but Temacu is gone!

Jessie and James pull up the rope to see their captures, only to find nothing. James pulls up Temacu however! Temacu loses balance and falls but James catches her, Temacu loving James now! James doesn't like this either. Jessie say they should just ditch her, but Temacu being a daughter of a Pokémon professor means... a lot of Pokémon.

Temacu's father sets up a search squad, consisting of a half dozen guys and Ash, Misty, and Brock. They go to the forest, Ash sends out Noctowl to do an air search. The bird Pokémon finds Team Rocket's balloon hovering around and reports back. Meanwhile, Jessie and James comes back to Temacu's house with Temacu. Her father thanks them and Jessie tells a fib about how they found the "terrorists" and both beat them up to save Temacu. But her father notices Meowth, Jessie just says they found it. Jessie and Meowth sneak off to find the Pokémon, they hit the jackpot when they found a room with a shelf full of Poké Balls. Jessie snatches them all in a bag, trying to escape, when Temacu's father tells them that Temacu cooked them a meal. Jessie and Meowth can't hand down a free meal and go right ahead. James is already in the dining room, acting much like Brock did. James constantly nudging Jessie for advice.

Ash finds the balloon and has Noctowl make a hole through it. When the balloon crashes, it was just a fake! They know that they probably made it back to the house. The three burst right in while Jessie, James and Meowth are eating. Ash tells them that it's Team Rocket, but Jessie tries to tell them their just locals. Misty pulls off Jessie's disguise and she knows it's Jessie.

Team Rocket makes a run for it, Ash and co. following. Ash sends out Chikorita and Jessie sends out Arbok. Chikorita just makes one Tackle and Arbok goes down. James then sends Weezing to use Smoke Screen but Misty sends out Poliwhirl for a Ice Beam. Then Misty has it do a Water Gun, James gets in the way but Temacu pushes James aside and gets hit herself, knocking her out. Brock goes up to her to see if she's alright. In the meantime Ash and Misty attack Weezing and Arbok sending them flying and landing on top of Jessie and James. Pikachu finishing them off with a Thunderbolt.

Temacu gets up and is actually well. Brock is glad, but she falls in love with the doctor who helped her. Brock is shocked, but sort of understands. They leave off to the next place, Brock upset. Misty tells her it's really no big deal, since after all, "There's plenty of fish in the sea". Brock cheers up and says he's going to find the right girl for him, and it's out there.

Trivia

  • When Temacu fantasizes about marrying Brock, she dreams about him wearing a white tuxedo to their wedding. This is actually the same tuxedo Brock is seen wearing in Beauty and the Breeder. The only difference is the addition of the rose on his chest.
  • This is one of the few times that the protagonists were able to recognize Team Rocket in their disguises (Misty was able to recognize Jessie on the spot).
