Meanwhile, {{TRT}} are at the [[Oreburgh Mining Museum]], plotting to steal some rare artifacts. [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|Disguised as scientists]], {{MTR}} suggests that they figure out interesting facts about Pokémon first. As they gazed in awe at a colossal structure of coal, [[Dr. Kenzo]], who is a Pokémon {{pkmn|Professor|Researcher}}, approaches them. He is thrilled to see their enthusiasm and offers to take them on a tour of the museum. Team Rocket has their sights set on the [[Fossil]] restorer machine, so Dr. Kenzo escorts them to the museum's research division. The trio is impressed by all of the technology and the Fossil Pokémon housed within a special eco dome environment.

Meanwhile, Paul picks up his Pokémon from the [[Pokémon Center]], where he sees Ash deciding which Pokémon he is going to use against Roark. Brock informs Ash that {{AP|Turtwig}} is the only Pokémon who has an advantage against {{t|Rock}} [[type]]s. Ash also knows that {{AP|Aipom}}'s {{m|Focus Punch}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}'s {{m|Iron Tail}} will be [[super effective]] against Rock Pokémon, so he decides that Pikachu, Aipom and Turtwig will be the ones to battle. While those three are happy, {{AP|Staravia}} is extremely upset that it's being left out, and Ash apologizes and promises it'll get to go up next time. Brock mentions to Ash that Paul's victory over Roark was mostly due to the speed of his Pokémon. Ash agrees and wonders what he'll do during his match. Paul steps in and suggests that Ash just imitate his battle strategy. Ash outright refuses to treat his Pokémon the way Paul does. Just then, a young boy runs up to Paul, thanking him for the {{p|Azumarill}} Paul gave him. Ash realizes this is the same Azumarill that quickly lost to Roark's {{p|Geodude}}, and calls Paul out for discarding his Pokémon. Paul remarks that Azumarill was never going to improve. He reminds Ash that they both want to win, but Ash replies that he is prepared to train his team to perform. With that, Paul leaves and Ash vows never to lose to him again.

The following day arrives, and Ash heads straight for the Oreburgh Gym to take on Roark. After the rules are stated, Ash is sure that he will show Paul some 'real battling'. Roark first sends out his {{TP|Roark|Cranidos}}, surprising Ash who expected to face Cranidos last. Ash decides to start things off with Aipom, hoping to win using her speed. {{si|Ian}} calls for the match to begin, and Ash commands Aipom to use {{m|Focus Punch}}. However, Cranidos leaps high into the air and knocks Aipom to the ground with a {{m|Headbutt}}. After Aipom hits the ground, Roark has Cranidos use {{m|Flamethrower}}. Ash can keep Aipom out of harm's way with {{m|Double Team}}. However, Cranidos easily gets rid of all of Aipom's clones, so Ash decides to go on the attack with {{m|Swift}} sending Cranidos reeling back. Ash now has Aipom try another Focus Punch, so Roark has Cranidos counter with {{m|Zen Headbutt}}. Both attacks collide, causing a massive explosion. However, Aipom comes out of it the worst, as she flies into Ash's arms [[fainting|unable to battle]]. Ash [[recall]]s Aipom for some rest and decides to use Pikachu next.
