{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} decide to take a break in a meadow, along with {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}. The group begins discussing the rumor that the rare {{p|Farfetch'd}} has been spotted in the area, and Ash immediately decides he wants to {{pkmn2|caught|catch}} it. Brock, Ash, and Pikachu then decide to get some water for the group from a nearby spring. Left alone, Misty begins hearing sounds, and she thinks it is Psyduck. All of a sudden, a Farfetch'd appears nearby and begins parading in front of Misty, and then runs into the woods. Misty, eager to catch the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, calls Psyduck into its {{i|Poké Ball}} and runs after it. She chases after the {{type|Flying}} Pokémon, but then, after turning a corner, bumps into a boy, {{OBP|Keith|EP049}}, and falls over. The boy apologizes, hands Misty her fallen [[bag]], and runs off.

She chases after the {{type|Flying}} Pokémon, but then, after turning a corner, bumps into a boy, {{OBP|Keith|EP049}}, and falls over. The boy apologizes, hands Misty her fallen [[bag]], and runs off.


Sad from losing track of the Farfetch'd, Misty returns to the meadow where Ash and Brock are looking for her. She reveals that she was trying to catch a Farfetch'd, which causes Ash and Brock to become infuriated that she was sneaking around behind their backs. They soon calm down after hearing from Misty how much of an awesome Pokémon Farfetch'd is. Brock hands Misty the water that he had gotten for her, but when she goes to put it in her bag she realizes the backpack is filled with rocks. She deduces that she must have picked up the wrong backpack when she bumped into the boy in the woods, and is upset because all of the Pokémon she had ever caught were in that backpack.

Keith and Team Rocket stop at a dock to take a small boat across a river, when the boy remembers something he forgot. He runs off, saying that he will be right back, leaving Team Rocket with Farfetch'd and all of Keith's Pokémon in a backpack. Naturally, they try to steal them, and take the small boat themselves, but this is exactly what the boy wanted them to do; a cork comes loose in the bottom of the boat, causing it to sink. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] lose {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} and {{TP|James|Weezing}} (and {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}), whose Poké Balls are floating down stream. When Team Rocket goes into Keith's bag to get Staryu and Starmie to help themselves out of the water, they discover the bag is full of rocks, just as Misty's was earlier. Farfetch'd gathers the Poké Balls, and sends Team Rocket over a waterfall. The Pokémon then swims to shore to find Keith waiting for him.

Ash, Misty, and Brock run to the nearest police station, and tell [[Officer Jenny]] what happened to Misty's Pokémon, still believing the whole thing was an accident. Jenny tells them that Misty is the fifth victim of the backpack-switching thief just that week; she informs everyone of how she has been trying to catch the perpetrator, to no avail.

Back at Keith's tent, he begins talking to himself about his situation. He states that he and his Farfetch'd had been together for a long time; they had been together ever since he found it injured and nursed it back to health. He reveals that just after his Farfetch'd was healed, they started stealing other Trainers' Pokémon. He believes the only way to survive is to steal because they are too weak to {{pkmn|battle}}; he genuinely wishes there was another way to get by. Inside the tent, Misty's Psyduck releases itself from its Poké Ball and walks off without Keith, or Farfetch'd, noticing.

Team Rocket, in the [[Team Rocket's mechas|Meowth Balloon]], are extremely angry, and out to find Keith and their Pokémon. They run into him just as he is packing up his tent and the stolen Pokémon, and is ready to get on the road. The boy tries to return their Pokémon by saying the whole thing was just a joke, and in return, he can just leave, but Team Rocket wants more. As a result, Keith gives them a whole bag of Poké Balls, along with his apologies; Team Rocket decides to forgive him, and they take off in their balloon with all of the Poké Balls.

Shortly after Team Rocket leaves, Ash, Misty, Brock, and Officer Jenny arrive, Psyduck having led them correctly. Everyone surrounds Keith, confronting him about his stealing. Ash expresses how much time and care Trainers put into raising their Pokémon. The group decides that they would have a Pokémon battle to teach him a lesson, so Keith could see how difficult a match is really. He then explains that his Farfetch'd is too weak to battle, and he has no choice but to steal Pokémon. Brock discounts this and says that Pokémon will become stronger with Trainers who work with them. Just as Keith begins to rebut, Farfetch'd expresses an interest in battling. Ash jumps in and sends out {{AP|Bulbasaur}} to battle, and orders a {{m|Tackle}} attack. With every strike of Bulbasaur's {{m|Vine Whip}}, Farfetch'd becomes increasingly determined to win. Keith, completely unaware of his Farfetch'd's techniques, witnesses an {{m|Agility}} attack, followed by multiple strikes of the Pokémon's {{wp|leek}}; Ash's Bulbasaur is defeated. The boy says that he wouldn't have used Farfetch'd to steal if he had known it had such power. Ash, ready to send out Pikachu to battle Farfetch'd, is stopped by Misty, who wants to battle. To her dismay, she soon realizes that her only Pokémon is Psyduck. However, Farfetch'd begins to hit it on the head. The blows give Psyduck a headache and it unleashes a powerful {{m|Disable}} attack, sending the Pokémon flying into its owner. Misty and Psyduck, celebrate their victory over the Trainer that stole her Pokémon.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket is opening all of the Poké Balls that Keith gave them, only to discover that they all contain {{p|Voltorb}}. Angry that they have been tricked again, they throw the Voltorb over the edge of their balloon. Unfortunately, the Pokémon land directly and {{m|Self-Destruct|self-destruct}} near Keith, Ash, Misty, Brock, and Jenny. Feeling defeated, the boy promises to stop his wrongdoing.

Back at the police station, Keith tells Officer Jenny that he'll give back all of the Pokémon he stole. Jenny informs him that he is lucky that none of the Trainers are going to press charges because they all got their Pokémon back; Misty expresses her joy to have her Pokémon back. Keith now admits it was wrong to steal, and apologizes to Farfetch'd for not believing in its power. With the new revelations, Keith decides to train his Farfetch'd to become even stronger, and the two head off.

Jessie and James, up in their balloon, consider telling {{an|Giovanni|their boss}} what happened, but {{MTR}} convinces them not to; Team Rocket expresses embarrassment over being outsmarted by a kid. All of a sudden, they realize one Voltorb is left in their balloon, and it self-destructs, sending them blasting off again.
