Whichever Way the Wind Blows (Japanese: キレイハナとラフレシア！そうげんのへいわ！ Kireihana and Rafflesia! Peace in Meadow!) is the 239th episode of the Pokémon anime. It was first broadcast in Japan on March 7, 2002 and in the United States on March 22, 2003.
Synopsis
Our friends find themselves in a meadow with lots of Gloom, Vileplume, Bellossom and Oddish. Steven, their new friend, tells Ash and friends that he came to this area so he could do studies on all the Grass-type Pokémon. He also added when the wind blows, the Gloom may evolve into Bellossom (North West winds) or Vileplume (North East winds).
Vileplume and Bellossom fight over territory since the very old and large tree covers so much of the land; they both need the sun shine, so over the day they fight for the area not covered in shade. Jessie, and James both get Stun Spored by the Vileplume and Bellossom, so Meowth goes to a convenient store and buys Salveyo weed. A major storm comes in and makes very large amounts of Gloom evolve all at once, but since the wind was coming from the North East and North West, they both were even in numbers in the end. The war broke out and Ash, Misty, Brock, and Steven all knew they had to fight to finally see that fighting does not solve anything. Jessie and James try with help from their Pokémon to catch the Grass Pokémon.
All the Pokémon know now that they should all just live together as friends, so they all take on Team Rocket and make them blast off again! Ash, Misty, and Brock say goodbye to their new friend Steven since this new problem has been solved.

Trivia
Gloom's branched evolution
Errors
- When Jessie first sends out Arbok, it doesn't move its mouth when it says its name.
- During the storm some Gloom are seen evolving into Vileplume. After that we see some Gloom evolve into Bellossom but the Vileplume that evolved before are not there. Some explanations could be that during the storm the Vileplume left to be with the other Vileplume or that the Gloom that are seen the second time are in a different area. What actually happens is unknown.
Dub edits
- The Japanese version of this episode features a different version of Team Rocket's motto while the dub uses the standard lines.
- Also, the Japanese version of Meowth's "boss fantasy" uses romantic-sounding saxophone music in the background.
