This book follows the plot of the anime episode Ready, Willing, and Sableye. Ash and his friends are having lunch with their Pokémon. Brock asks Ash's Corphish to help him with the salad. Corphish uses its strong pincers to cut vegatables but soon gets overexcited and begins to chop up all the groups food. Ash voices his concern about Corphish attitude problem and the group agrees. Near by, Team Rocket arrive at an abandoned mineshaft. Planning to steal some leftover gold, they enter only to be scared off by a creature with jewel eyes, who causes Meowth to faint. Soon afterward Ash and his friends arrive at the same mineshaft. They plan to scare Corphish into behaving better and soon put their plan into action. Meanwhile Mewoth wakes up, only to find that the Sableye is friendly and only likes to scare people. Sableye tells Meowth it is lonely in this cave and wishes for some company. They are in a large control room in the mine. There Meowth sees May and Max walking around through a window. Meowth hatches a plan to catch Sableye for his Boss by pretending to be it's friend and edging Sableye to scare Ash and his friends away.
Later, Ash puts his plan into action. He summons Corphish out of its Poké Ball and begins to spook it by telling it that ghosts live in the mine. On cue, a bed blanket ghost appears(which is actually Max on May's shoulders. This terrifies Corphish and in a panic it attacks the "ghost". Max and May tumble backward, causing the sheet to fall off. Corphish sees that it had been tricked and feeling betrayed, it run away into a side tunnel. Ash runs after it and Max and May stand up, voicing their shock on the situation. Suddenly, Sableye jumps out from shadows and scares the siblings. However, Max recognizes the Pokémon and aserts it isnt a dangerous ghost. May is curious and takes out her Pokédex. The Pokédex relays information on the Darkness Pokémon and May is relieved it is a harmless practical joker. Sableye, however, finds the whole affair funny and begins laughing. May, annoyed at Sableye's inconsideration, sends out her Torchic and commands it to use Ember. Sableye dodges the fiery raindrops by jumping up and crawling around ceiling. It then does on to defeat Torchic with swift Tackle. Accepting defeat, May returns Torchic to its Poké Ball. Suddenly Meowth appears and presses a button, trapping Max and May in a net.
