==Synopsis==
As {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} make their way to the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Pyramid}},  {{an|May}} runs towards a lake shining brightly from the reflection of the bright sun. A [[Shiny Pokémon|golden]] {{p|Sudowoodo}} begins moving across Ash's and May's path as she turns around to notice it. Sudowoodo panics and freezes in position as Ash queries its [[Pokédex]] data. {{AP|Pikachu}} explodes forward with a {{m|Thunderbolt}} striking Sudowoodo for a direct hit. Ash attempts to capture the {{pkmn2|wild}} "gold" Sudowoodo, but with an extension of its upper branch, Sudowoodo evades the [[Poké Ball]] and after a few moments of resistance, forces the Poké Ball back towards Ash and dashes off in a plume of dust and smoke into the distance. Ash takes a direct hit from the Poké Ball and falls to the ground.

The path leads our heroes into a nearby town as {{an|Brock}} suggests visiting the local restaurant/parlor. The establishment is filled with patrons with the suspected goal of attempting to {{pkmn2|caught|capture}} the "golden" Sudowoodo. May notices a poster inside advertising the next {{pkmn|Contest}}. As May mentions her sighting of the Sudowoodo, almost every patron inside of the establishment move towards May and interrogate her about the Sudowoodo sighting. Everyone begins fighting over the incident as [[Keenan|a young man]] motions for our heroes to evade the feuding patrons. As our heroes successfully escape the mob of people, {{TRT}} is perched atop the restaurant spying on the overall situation. The young boy leads everyone into a nearby building as he checks his surroundings and closes the curtains. The boy introduces himself as Keenan while our heroes exchange introductions. Keenan walks over and opens a drawer and removes a small portrait. Keenan shows the image to Ash which portrays him and the golden Sudowoodo.

Meowth, now equipped with a remote device, launches two mechanical devices towards Sudowoodo's direction. Sudowoodo manages to evade the men escaping behind a group of nearby boxes. The two mechanical parts begin deceleration and attach together forming {{TP|Team Rocket|a mecha|mechas}}. The mecha blasts forward just managing to miss Sudowoodo. Pikachu electrocutes the mecha but it has no effect. The mecha blasts forward with another attack, as Keenan rushes forward to defend against the attack with a shovel. As the mecha moves forward with another attack, Keenan grasps onto the mecha's legs attempting to halt it from further attacks. Sudowoodo becomes inspired from Keenan's heroic efforts and strikes forward knocking the mecha backwards. Sudowoodo rotates forward with a final strike destroying the mecha. Pikachu then follows by blasting Team Rocket off once again. Keenan thanks Sudowoodo for its heroic efforts as the group of men manage to locate Sudowoodo once more as our heroes escape into laboratory. Sudowoodo is placed inside of the strange machine once more and the effect is reversed returning Sudowoodo to its previous body.

* [[Jessie]]'s fantasy comes from a Japanese tale about one throwing an object by accident and it turning into gold. There is a similar Western fairytale, where a woodsman loses his axe in a lake. The lake's spirit asked if he had lost an axe of pure silver or one of pure gold, but the woodsman says he had lost a cheap axe. He is awarded both the silver and gold axes for his honesty.

* The name of this episode is a parody on the famous phrase (which is itself a mistranslation of a line in {{wp|The Merchant of Venice}}) "All that glitters is not gold". This reference is also made in ''[[EP184|All That Glitters!]]''.
