Meanwhile, {{TRT}}, further upstream, is relaxing when Dratini passes by. [[Jessie]] is enamored by the Dratini, hoping to catch one for her own. As [[James]] sends out {{TP|James|Weezing}}, they are suddenly washed in Gyarados' Hydro Pump, and meet face to face with Clair. When Team Rocket try to threaten her, she sends them flying by using another one of Gyarados' Hydro Pump attacks. Meanwhile, Ash and company, with Kaburagi, manage to make up their ground with Clair. Kaburagi implores Clair to return in time for the ritual, but Clair objects, seeing as Dratini is preparing to shed its skin - a point in which Dratini are the most vulnerable. When Dratini leaves, Clair and Gyarados follow, and Ash and company have no choice but to follow them, and let Dratini shed its skin before preparing for the ritual. Team Rocket, intending on stealing Dratini, is also in pursuit - though James contends that Dratini would fetch a high price either on the open market or as a gift to {{an|Giovanni}}, Jessie is adamant that she keep it for herself, thinking that it is cute. | Meanwhile, {{TRT}}, further upstream, is relaxing when Dratini passes by.

This gives an opportunity for Ash to challenge Clair, which Clair accepts. Kaburagi, noticing that Ash had won the Badge from [[Mahogany Town]], asks them whether the rumors of a [[Red Gyarados]] rampaging near town were true. Ash and company proceed to tell them the whole story, including how they had met [[Lance]], and how they were in the middle of the entire situation. Clair and her assistant is surprised at the fact that Lance is a Pokémon G-Man, which surprises Ash (not knowing that they, too, are acquainted with Lance). Clair reveals that the two are both {{t|Dragon}}-type Trainers who had trained with each other. Knowing this, Ash and Clair are both excited for their upcoming battle. Their lunch is disrupted by an elderly couple, who wants to take pictures with Dratini. Though Clair is reluctant, she allows the couple to go near Dratini, only for the couple to trap Dratini in a net. The couple reveal themselves as Jessie and James, while {{MTR}} covers their escape using a smoke bomb. | ||
While Clair is in hot pursuit of Team Rocket's balloon, Dratini tries desperately to break free by rocking the balloon. When the balloon crashes, it makes a desperate attempt into the water, which Jessie quickly stops. This allows Clair to catch up. Trying to defend themselves, James sends out Weezing, but is dispatched easily by Gyarados. Pikachu tries to {{m|Thunderbolt}} Team Rocket to send them flying, but {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}'s {{m|Counter}} deflects the attack in all directions - hitting Ash, Pikachu, Team Rocket, and nearly hitting {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, and Kaburagi. When an errant Thunderbolt is about to hit Dratini, Clair dives to protect it. Just at that moment, Dratini evolves into {{p|Dragonair}}, much to Jessie's dismay (who contends that it was cuter as a Dratini). As Dragonair is far more rare, Team Rocket presses on their attack, but thanks to Gyarados' {{m|Hyper Beam}} and Dragonair's {{m|Twister}}, they are sent flying. | While Clair is in hot pursuit of Team Rocket's balloon, Dratini tries desperately to break free by rocking the balloon.
