Suddenly, Team Rocket blows a hole in one of the Gym's walls. Unaware of the threat, Caroline thanks Team Rocket for assisting May on her journey so far, thinking they are friends. Team Rocket scoffs at the idea and launches into their {{motto}}. [[Jessie]] then sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and [[James]] calls on {{TP|James|Weezing}} to attack the group. Weezing uses {{m|Smokescreen}}, as Arbok use {{m|Headbutt}} on Pikachu. Vigoroth decides to help, but when it cannot see through the Smokescreen, Max suggests that May should use her Pokémon. Nervously, May calls out her {{TP|May|Torchic}}, but as she pauses to think, Arbok lands an attack on Torchic. As Jessie gets ready to steal Vigoroth and Pikachu, Ash has Pikachu use Thunderbolt on them, but it hits Max by accident. As Ash checks to see if he is okay, Team Rocket escapes in the Smokescreen. Once the dust settles, May realizes she has lost her Torchic. | Suddenly, Team Rocket blows a hole in one of the Gym's walls.

The | The trio flees in their [[Team Rocket's mechas|balloon]]. They soon land, and [[Jessie]] reaches into the loot bag to find Torchic instead. Torchic retaliates and lands an {{m|Ember}} attack on James's face. Jessie is upset, admitting that Torchic is definitely not Team Rocket material. {{MTR}} comes up with a backup plan and suggests they use Torchic as bait to get Pikachu. Meanwhile, May's family and Ash decide to split up to cover more ground in their search for Torchic. Caroline and Norman search together, leaving the children on their own. Max first attempts to use a magnifying glass to find footprints, but May reminds him that Team Rocket fled in a balloon. May’s parents soon return with good news; they've located Team Rocket nearby. They reach the clearing, and Ash confirms that the balloon is unmistakably Team Rocket’s. May spots her Torchic stuck in a cage, so she and little brother rush forward. Ash tries to call them back, but it is too late as the pair fall into a hole. Norman and Caroline run after them; Ash tries to stop them as well, but they fall into another pitfall trap. The trio emerges from hiding to laugh at the family’s predicament. | ||

As Ash peers into the pitfall trap, Jessie calls for Arbok to attack. Ash sends Pikachu out to confront the trio while he helps May and Max out of the hole. Caroline and Norman make it out on their own. Norman is infuriated at the trio for stealing his daughter's first Pokémon and he sends Vigoroth into the fray. James calls on Weezing to even things out. Meanwhile, Max sneaks passed and reaches Torchic's cage, freeing it. Torchic returns to May, who tries to use its attacks at Max's suggestion. Meanwhile, Arbok wraps itself around Vigoroth, so Ash has Pikachu help it by using Quick Attack on Arbok. Then, May tries to use Torchic's "Amber" attack, but Max corrects her, saying she meant "Ember". When May commands it again, Torchic attacks Max by mistake. This time, she tells it to use Peck, but again it attacks Max. Meanwhile, Arbok Headbutts Pikachu and Vigoroth tackle them both into the balloon. Then, Pikachu finishes it off with Thunderbolt, sending Team Rocket blasting off. | ||
Despite the theft, some good has come of the situation: May and Torchic are already showing signs of bonding. Later, back in front of Norman's Gym, as May and Ash are about to resume their journey, Max insists that he is traveling with them. Norman notes that Max will be a good help thanks to his wide knowledge, while Caroline says it will be a lot less trouble for her. Despite May's clear irritation, Norman asks Ash, who quickly agrees to the idea. As a gift, Norman gives Ash and May a Badge case each and Max is thrilled to receive a [[PokéNav]]. With his new toy in hand, Max rushes ahead as Norman directs Ash to [[Rustboro City]] for the closest Gym. | Despite the theft, some good has come of the situation: May and Torchic are already showing signs of bonding.
