The next day, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are eating ice cream when a Clefairy walks up to them. They chase Clefairy, but while they are gone, more Clefairy steal their ice cream and [[Bag|backpacks]]. When Ash and his friends go to [[Officer Jenny]], they discover that many other people have also been robbed. As {{an|Brock}} questions why the robbers chose such obscure items, a man named [[Oswald]] enters and believes the string of thefts are the work of {{wp|aliens}}. Officer Jenny reveals that objects began disappearing three nights ago.

While searching for the aliens, they see a UFO land in front of them. Two silver aliens come out and abduct {{AP|Pikachu}}, but they are really [[Jessie]] and [[James]] in disguise. They put Pikachu in a glass container that absorbs electricity into a lightbulb. The UFO is really being operated by {{MTR}}, using a crane. Ash summons his {{AP|Pidgeotto}}, which brings down the UFO. Before the battle with {{TRT}} can continue, Clefairy appears, and Oswald's scanner says that it is an alien. It says the same thing about Jigglypuff when it shows up. When the scanner says {{an|Misty}} is an alien, she knocks it out of his hand, breaking Oswald's comic book-ordered scanner.

A Clefairy grabs Pikachu and runs off with him, still trapped in his shockproof container. Ash and the others chase after it and go down a manhole cover that leads to an underground cave. There they see the Clefairy have been using their stolen items to build a spaceship attached to a rocket, and they plan to use Pikachu's electricity to power it and make it blast off. Ash and the others enter while Brock goes back to tell Officer Jenny. Team Rocket also enters, intending to steal Pikachu and all the Clefairy.

Inside the ship, Jigglypuff defeats all the Clefairy with a series of {{m|Pound}} attacks, and later battles the leader, who is in the cockpit. Oswald makes his way to the cockpit and tries to pull a lever, but it breaks off. It turns out to be Jigglypuff's marker microphone, which Jigglypuff takes and then sings its song, putting everyone inside the ship to sleep. The ship is timed to take off, and does. The stolen items are all lost during the takeoff, and are returned to their rightful owners. The rocket, with Team Rocket still aboard, detaches from the ship and falls. Ash finds Pikachu, whose {{t|Electric}} attacks are too powerful for his prison, shattering the glass. Ash and the others escape from the ship, with [[Ash's Bulbasaur]] using {{m|Vine Whip}} to grab onto a skyscraper as the spacecraft continues its ascent.

* {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} encounter a group of {{pkmn2|extraterrestrial}} {{OBP|Clefairy|recurring}}.

* {{p|Clefairy}} ({{OBP|Clefairy|recurring|anime}}; multiple)

* The episode's English [[dub]] title is derived from "{{wp|fairy tale}}s".

** It is almost identical to that of a chapter in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] {{pkmn|manga}}, ''[[ET03|Clefairy Tale]]'', which is partially based on this episode.

* When {{ashfr|the group}} falls out of the rocket ship onto the skyscraper, they don't have {{an|Brock}}'s backpack, but later, he is seen wearing it.

* After Meowth slides down the rope, the lines on his coin are missing. They reappear in the next shot.
