<i>In the outskirts of Fuchsia City, our heroes come across Hitmonchan, a fighter-Pokémon. With little thought, Ash attempts to capture it, but he and Pikachu are badly defeated. Hitmonchan's master has abandoned his family, training day and night, aiming for victory at the P1 Grand Prix (the number one Pokémon Grand Prix). His daughter tells Ash and his friends of her desire to make her father remember his family. In the meantime, Ash's party enters the P1 Grand Prix, but with Team Rockets unwanted, not to mention, unofficial presence at the competition, the battle goes out of control.</i> | |||
==Plot== | |||
A shadowy figure is seen in the distance. As it approaches, it is discovered that the figure is a {{p|Hitmonchan}}. It suddenly stops by a nearby tree, while a girl watches the {{type|Fighting}} from behind. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are amazed, thinking it's a {{pkmn2|wild}} Hitmonchan. Ash tells {{AP|Pikachu}} that if it can defeat Hitmonchan, it will be a world champion {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. However, Pikachu just imagines itself getting beaten up. Ash says that he will teach Pikachu his secret punch. {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} are curious about this, and question when Ash became a boxing expert. | A shadowy figure is seen in the distance.
