Synopsis
Template:Incomplete synopsis
Brock leads Ash and Misty toward a beautiful lake he has read about in his guidebook, but when they arrive at its supposed location, they find nothing but a dried-up stream, surrounded by a number of thirsty Slowpoke. Ash and friends spot a King's Rock, but are stopped from approaching it by a young girl whose name is Alice and her Slowpoke, Arthur. Alice explains that she and her dad are researching legends surrounding the Slowpoke and a supposed Slowking.

Trivia
- This is the last episode to use hand-colored cel animation (outside of Japan).
- This episode is probably based on the legend of the Sword in the Stone, in which many knights tried to draw a magical sword from an anvil, but only one, Arthur, succeeded and became King. Additionally, the Slowpoke that becomes Slowking is named Arthur.
- Brock is shown with "open" eyes for the first time.
Errors
- When told that no one knew that the King's Rock existed, the group forgot that one was just used to evolve Misty's Poliwhirl 12 episodes before.
- Team Rocket blasts off twice, but at the second time, a strip-repeat was evident; in the first blast off Jessie's Arbok and James's Weezing were outside of their Poké Balls, while the second time, despite neither being out, both are there.
