{{Ash}} is kneeling down to the {{AP|Chimchar}} that [[Paul]] {{pkmn2|released}} [[DP051|moments earlier]]. Impressed by the way Chimchar always gives it his all in battle, Ash would be thrilled to have him on his team. However, a disgusted Paul tells them that they deserve the worst and have found it in each other. Ash diverts {{an|Dawn|any}} and {{an|Brock|all}} attention away from him, and assures Chimchar that, if he accepts his offer, they will both prove Paul wrong. Paul then walks away, and Chimchar takes on a glowing expression and reaches to accept Ash's offer, just when they are suddenly attacked by {{m|Bullet Seed}} and {{m|Pin Missile}}. In all the chaos, Chimchar is seized by the attackers, revealed to be {{TRT}}. After finishing their motto, [[James]] tells {{TP|James|Carnivine}} and {{TP|James|Cacnea}} to attack Ash, Dawn and Brock so he, [[Jessie]] and [[Meowth (Team Rocket)|Meowth]] can escape. However, Chimchar takes action and uses {{m|Flamethrower}} to destroy Team Rocket's balloon, causing it to plummet to the ground. Ash manages to catch Chimchar just in time, and with the day saved, he asks again if Chimchar would like to join his team. Chimchar happily agrees, so Ash throws a {{i|Poké Ball}} into the air. Chimchar happily jumps up and smacks the button, and without any struggle, Ash catches him. Later that night, Ash contacts {{an|Professor Oak}} to tell him about what has been going on. Although Oak is glad that Chimchar is with Ash now, he states that the situation has not changed; Ash and Paul still need to work as a team if they are to win the tournament.

The next morning, the battles continue in the Tag Battle Competition. Dawn and [[Conway]] have already won their semifinal match, so the next match-up is Ash and Paul versus Brock and [[Holly]]. Ash sends out Chimchar to watch, before sending out {{AP|Staravia}} to battle. Paul chooses {{TP|Paul|Torterra}}, Brock chooses {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, and Holly chooses {{p|Farfetch'd}}. Ash makes the first move and commands Staravia to use {{m|Aerial Ace}} on Croagunk, who Brock commands to counter with {{m|Poison Jab}}. Holly has Farfetch'd launch an {{m|Air Slash}} at Torterra, who Paul commands to use {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Hyper Beam decimates the Air Slash and instantly knocks Farfetch'd out on impact, grazing Staravia in the process. Ash scolds Paul for harming his Pokémon [[DP051|again]], before Holly apologizes for letting Brock down. He tells her not to blame herself, before telling Croagunk to use {{m|Brick Break}} on Torterra, who is immobilized due to Hyper Beam's secondary effect. Ash tells Staravia to use another Aerial Ace, trying to catch Croagunk off-guard. However, Croagunk slides under Torterra, forcing Staravia to stop his attack. Croagunk jumps out from behind Torterra and lands Brick Break on its head. Croagunk tries to follow up with Poison Jab, leading Ash to command Staravia to stop him, but Paul angrily tells him to let him handle this himself. He then commands Torterra, now being able to move again, to use {{m|Leaf Storm}} before Croagunk can use his move, which knocks him out in one shot and gives Ash and Paul victory and entry into the final round. Ash congratulates Staravia on a good job, only for Paul to comment that Staravia contributed nothing to the battle, before casting a glare at his former Chimchar, who turns away in intimidation.
