==Synopsis==
{{Ash}} and his {{ashfr|friends}} are on their way to the next [[Johto League]] [[Gym]] in [[Olivine City]] when they pass through an unnamed town. The group sees a herd of screaming girls running down the street, and {{an|Brock}} chases after them; Ash and {{an|Misty}} follow him. As the trio runs after the girls, a mysterious man gives them an odd yellow ball telling them to 'hold onto it for him', and Ash complies. The man runs away saying he'd be back later, and drops his hat on the way. Ash unwraps the yellow ball to find a {{p|Smoochum}} in it.

Smoochum kisses Ash and Misty, and tries to kiss {{AP|Pikachu}} while Ash reads Smoochum's [[Pokédex]] entry. Smoochum retrieves the dropped hat, and runs to Brock, who puts it on his head. Then, the screaming girls re-appear and pummel the trio. {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}, Smoochum, and Pikachu are thrown out of the chaos, and Togepi and Smoochum follow a {{p|Skiploom}} into an alley. Unable to get Ash's attention, Pikachu follows them. The ladies realize that Brock isn't who they were looking for and disband. The trio look at a screen in the streets and realize the man who gave them the Smoochum was a movie star named [[Brad]]. Misty then realizes Togepi, Pikachu, and Smoochum are missing.

[[Team Rocket]] is then shown watching the Pokémon from a screen, controlling the robotic Skiploom with a remote. Togepi and Smoochum follow the Skiploom into a small hole in a building, but Pikachu can't quite fit. [[James]] takes Togepi and Smoochum into his arms while [[Jessie]] gets Pikachu out with rubber gloves. Jessie puts Pikachu in a rubber sack, and begins cuddling Smoochum when Ash and the gang arrive. Ash sends out {{AP|Bayleef}} and {{AP|Totodile}}. Bayleef uses {{M|Razor Leaf}} to cut Pikachu out while Totodile uses {{m|Water Gun}} to release James' grip on Togepi and Smoochum. {{MTR}} tries to attack with the Robo-Skiploom, but Totodile blasts it away with Water Gun. With Team Rocket wet, Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}}, sending Team Rocket blasting off.

Brad is seen looking for Ash in the streets when the girls re-appear. Before they can get to him, one of his managers pulls up and lets Brad get in the car, but he warns Brad about roaming the streets. Smoochum gets excited after seeming a limo, and Ash and his friends acknowledge that it must be Brad's, so they follow it. They come to a large dome arena that's blocked off by screaming girls, so they look for another way to get in.
