Hitmonchan creams Ash's little Pikachu. Much to Ash's disappointment, it was not a wild Hitmonchan. Suddenly, the girl runs out from behind the tree. She calls the man her dad, and begs him to come home, and to give up trying to become a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. The man tells his daughter, {{ka|Rebecca}}, that he won't quit until he becomes the [[P1 Grand Prix]] champion. He then informs everyone that he will be at his [[Gym]] and leaves.

After talking with Rebecca, Ash and the others learn that {{ka|Anthony}} is determined to become the P1 Grand Prix champion, and as a result has essentially abandoned his family. Wanting to help Rebecca out, Brock volunteers his and Ash's assistance, saying their {{TP|Brock|Geodude}} and {{AP|Primeape}} will defeat Anthony and his Hitmonchan.

Meanwhile, {{TRT}} gets wind of the Grand Prix as well. They decide to enter to win the prize belt. [[James]] and {{MTR}}, on the other hand, want to win for the all-you-can-eat buffet. [[Jessie]] then gets mad at them. When they ask what she would use the money for, she tells them she would go to the salon and go on a shopping spree. When James points out that only Fighting Pokémon can enter, Jessie says that they will have to "borrow" one. They spot a [[Giant|tall man]] and his {{p|Hitmonlee}}, which James identifies as the Kicking Fiend.

* This episode shares some similarities with ''[[DP124|To Thine Own Pokémon Be True!]]'':
** A main character participates in a special contest, using a [[Ash's Primeape|primate-based]] [[Dawn's Ambipom|Pokémon]].
** The main character ends up giving his/her Pokémon that participated the contest to be trained by {{ka|Anthony|another}} [[O|participant]] of the contest.
* In the original version, Ash wanted to teach Pikachu boxing. So he said : " Ashita no Tame ni #1 " (For the sake of tomorrow #1), which is clearly a reference to the 1970 Boxing anime {{wp|Tomorrow's Joe|Ashita No Joe}} (Tomorrow's Joe). "For the sake of tomorrow #1, 2..." are boxing lessons in the anime.
