Meanwhile, {{TRT}} follows Ash and his friends to Maiden's Peak and they come up with the idea to look around for dropped coins; [[James]] gets distracted by the same girl that Brock saw before. As they leave to look for the coins, James takes a final look at the dock and notices that the girl is gone. During the festival, Ash and his friends meet an old woman, who warns Brock of a young girl who will "lead him to a cruel fate". After the old lady insults Misty, she decides that they should go somewhere else where they won't be insulted, and drags Ash and Brock with her. Meanwhile, while still looking for money, James is also warned by the old woman of the young girl. | Meanwhile, {{TRT}} follows Ash and his friends to Maiden's Peak and they come up with the idea to look around for dropped coins; [[James]] gets distracted by the same girl that Brock saw before.

Ash, his friends, and Team Rocket head for the Shrine of the Maiden, where they are shown its greatest treasure: a 2,000-year-old painting of the maiden. Brock and James both realize that the girl in the painting is the same girl they saw before. A man then tells the story of the maiden, who waited on the cliff for her lover to return from the war, and eventually turned into stone; {{MTR}} formulates a plan to steal the painting. As night falls, Brock decides to stay at the cliff while Misty and Ash leave to enjoy the festival. Later on, Brock doesn't return to the [[Pokémon Center]], which worries Ash. | |||
In the middle of the night, {{MTR}} tries to wake up Jessie and James so they can try to steal the painting. He's then confronted by the ghost of the maiden, who causes him to fall asleep, and then wakes up James. She also appears to Brock, telling him that she's been waiting for him.

He's then confronted by the ghost of the maiden, who causes him to fall asleep, and then wakes up James. She also appears to Brock, telling him that she's been waiting for him. The next morning, both Brock and James are missing, and the others are looking for them. After finding them, the old lady appears again, reminding them of her warning about the ghost of the maiden; Pikachu shocks James and Brock, restoring them to their normal selves. They all head inside, and the old lady explains how all young men passing through Maiden's Peak fall into the ghost's curse; they decide to protect themselves from the ghost by buying a large quantity of {{wp|ofuda}}, or anti-ghost stickers, and placing them around the shrine. However, when night comes, they note that the stickers prove useless, and the ghost of the maiden returns. Ash and the others try to prevent Brock and James from being pulled out by the maiden. | ||
After being shot with a bazooka by Jessie, the ghost of the maiden summons several skull-like ghostly apparitions. Ash tries to identify them with his [[Pokédex]], but with no results; when Ash accidentally points the Pokédex at the ghost of the maiden, it identifies her as a {{p|Gastly}}, who's impersonating the old lady as well. Since Gastly's disguise has been revealed, it transforms back to its normal form. Ash challenges it to a {{pkmn|battle}}, sending in Pikachu, to which Gastly summons a living mouse trap to scare him off. Meowth states that mouse traps do not work on him, so Gastly summons a ball for him to play with, distracting him. Jessie and James send out {{TP|Jessie|Ekans}} and {{TP|James|Koffing}}, which are scared off by Gastly's newly summoned mongoose. | After being shot with a bazooka by Jessie, the ghost of the maiden summons several skull-like ghostly apparitions.
