They all head into the elevator and as the doors begin to close a [[Ritchie|boy]] runs up, asking them to hold the elevator. He sees {{AP|Pikachu}} and pets him on the head. Ash warns him that Pikachu might shock him, but to his surprise Pikachu is enjoying the experience. Suddenly, the elevator stops! The boy tells them that he can get it running again and asks Ash if he can use Pikachu for his {{m|ThunderShock}} attack. Ash agrees, and the boy opens the device and lets Pikachu use ThunderShock on it. The lights in the elevator turn back on and the elevator begins to run again. Professor Oak remarks he's glad they opened the door for him.

Later on, {{TRT}} decides to pull off another elaborate scheme: a "physical examination" of sorts. If trainers do not comply, they will be disqualified. Unfortunately, when [[Jessie]] attempts to stuff Pikachu into a sack (getting shocked in the process), [[James]] lets slip Jessie's name, causing Ash and Ritchie to realize who they were. Team Rocket performs their usual [[Team Rocket motto|motto]], and, behind the cover of {{TP|James|Weezing}}'s {{m|smog}}, escape with the [[Poké Ball]]s and Pikachu. Ash and Ritchie chase after them, cutting through the mountains to reach the escaping van. Suddenly, the come onto the road where the Rockets are traversing upon. When seeing the '[[twerps]],' James swerves off the road and down a hill and into a river.

It's nighttime, and Ash and Ritchie still haven't confronted Team Rocket. They camp out, vowing to find their Pokémon at sun-up the following day. Meanwhile, the scene cuts to Team Rocket feasting by moonlight. After doing a "Poke-dance", the scene switches back to Ash and Ritchie, staring up at the stars.

Morning arrives. The search continues, and the pair come across tire tracks. Ash and Ritchie follow the tracks, and discover the van along with the sleeping trio of Rockets. They creep through the camp towards the van, and find a muffled voice. It's Pikachu! They are reunited, and the Poké Balls are there too! However, Team Rocket has woken up and finds them trespassing. The quickly rush out of the van, lock the doors, and drive. Still in the van, the twin twerps must think of a way out...

Finally, they remember that they in a van with 100+ Poké Balls at their disposal. Ritchie identifies his Pokémon due to star-shaped stickers, but Ash sends out a {{p|Drowzee}}, {{p|Slowbro}}, and even a {{p|Magikarp}} before Pikachu sniffs out {{AP|Bulbasaur}}'s Poké Ball. Bulbasaur uses {{m|Tackle}} and {{m|Razor Leaf}} on the van wall, but to no avail. Ritchie sends out his {{p|Charmander}} [[Zippo]] and orders it to Slash open the van wall. The tactic is successful, and the wall breaks to reveal Team Rocket. Jessie sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}, which is matched by Pikachu. But before Pikachu lets loose a {{m|thunderbolt}}, James uses 'turn attack,' which causes pikachu to lose balance. Arbok hits Pikachu back. Ritchie then sends out [[Sparky]], his own Pikachu! Jessie orders an attack, while Sparky and Pikachu both counter with {{m|Agility}}. Arbok is overwhelmed, and both Electric Mice Thunderbolt the van. The front portion explodes, leaving the heroes safe and sound. However, even in Anime Physics, inertia still applies, which means the back of the van is still driving along a mountain road- and off a cliff. Pidgeotto and [[Ritchie#Happy|Happy]] (Ritchie's Butterfree) act as parachutes, catching their respective trainers. (Poké Balls and Pikachu included) After using {{m|Whirlwind}} to land safely, a group of jeeps (which turns out to be the trainers, plus Brock and Misty.
