The episode starts with the gang entering [[Rubello Town]], on their way to {{Ash}}'s next Gym battle, when [[Max]] spots a poster for a [[Pokémon Contest]] which is set to begin the next day. {{an|May}} is delighted and quickly decides to enter. {{an|Brock}}, however, notices a mysterious symbol on the Contest poster, "R1," the meaning of which is not known to the group. Fortunately, [[Nurse Joy]] explains that any entrant to this Contest must have at least one Ribbon.
The episode starts with the gang entering [[Rubello Town]], on their way to {{Ash}}'s next Gym battle, when [[Max]] spots a poster for a [[Pokémon Contest]] which is set to begin the next day. {{an|May}} is delighted and quickly decides to enter. {{an|Brock}}, however, notices a mysterious symbol on the poster, "[[Rank (Contest)|R1]]," the meaning of which is not known to the group. Fortunately, [[Nurse Joy]] explains that in order to enter the Rubello Contest, a {{pkmn|Coordinator}} must have earned at least one [[Ribbon]].


In the [[Pokémon Center]], May runs into [[Drew]], who is also entering the Pokémon Contest. After insulting May, she gets angered with him, but before anything can happen, Drew is engulfed by a swarm of rabid female fans. Drew isn't exactly happy to see these fans, as they lean towards the obsessive side, but May becomes jealous nonetheless. The jealousy is forgotten when one of the women recognizes May and the group crowds around her instead. However, the fans seem more interested in [[Norman]] than either May or Max. During the discussion, [[Savannah]], the head of the group, explains that they saw May in the [[Verdanturf Town|Verdanturf]] Contest. Savannah also reveals that she will be entering the Rubello Contest as well. The group also introduces themselves with a cheer as the [[Mothers for Pokémon]], also known as MFP. They are a group of wives and mothers who love Pokémon. They decide to throw a party for May and Max. One of them tells Ash that he isn't on the list of "promising and handsome young [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainers]]."

Meanwhile, {{TRT}} enters the town very fatigued, but [[Jessie]], upon seeing the Contest poster, decides to enter. [[James]] and {{MTR}} groan. When she discovers that she needs a Ribbon to enter, and having none, she decides to steal one and enter the Contest.

James and Meowth are less than enthusiastic about the Ribbon theft operation, but Jessie sends out her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} to combat the Pokémon Savannah and May already have out. However, Ash, Brock, and Max quickly arrive on the scene. Flareon's {{m|Flamethrower}} is deflected by {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}. [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Brock's Lombre]] and {{TP|Brock|Mudkip}} are quickly called out to join the battle. Dustox uses {{m|Poison Sting}} while Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} to block. Wobbuffet deflects a pair of {{m|Water Gun}} attacks. Jessie orders her Dustox to attack Sandra with {{m|Psybeam}}, but that's the breaking point for Savannah. She becomes angry that Jessie would dare attack her daughter and orders Flareon to launch another Flamethrower attack. Wobbuffet steps forward, but the attack was aimed at the balloon, not Wobbuffet. Team Rocket goes down in flames. Jessie declares that she would rather give up James and Meowth than the Ribbons. This angers James and Meowth, who convince Jessie to surrender the Ribbons to the group. Sandra and Savannah launch a {{m|Water Pulse}} which sends Team Rocket blasting off.
