Nearby, {{MTR}} watches from the bushes while [[Jessie]] and [[James]] eat. They peer through their binoculars, and James recognizes Prima. Unfortunately, he doesn't remember who she is. Prima looks out at the ocean, and makes many philosophical comments about nature. But all Ash wants is a {{pkmn|battle}}. But Prima continues to ignore him. Ash interprets this to mean that she's afraid to battle and goes off in search of someone else. He does find a opponent who accepts his challenge. As Prima watches, Ash offers to let the boy set up the rules and they agree on two {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} each. Ash sends out {{AP|Squirtle}}, and the boy releases a {{p|Persian}}. | Nearby, {{MTR}} watches from the bushes while [[Jessie]] and [[James]] eat.

Squirtle uses {{m|Water Gun}}, but Persian dodges it. It unleashes a {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack, but Squirtle uses {{m|Withdraw}}. Squirtle then pops out of its shell and {{m|Skull Bash}}es Persian, and knocks it out. The boy then sends out a {{p|Tauros}}, who {{m| | Squirtle uses {{m|Water Gun}}, but Persian dodges it.

Ash withdraws Squirtle and sends out {{AP|Charizard}}, but Ash still cannot control Charizard and it burns him. | ||
Prima continues to watch as Tauros uses Take Down. Charizard then uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, knocking out Tauros in one hit. He then {{m|Fly|flies}} into the air and attempts to burn everything in sight. Ash tries to call it back, but the beam from the [[Poké Ball]] misses. When Ash gets Flamethrowered again, Prima is forced to intervene, sending out her {{p|Slowbro}}, who uses {{m|Disable}}, immobilizing Charizard in midair. It then brings it down to the ground, and Ash succeeds in calling it back. Prima asks Ash if he knows what he's doing, and he defends himself by saying that he was in the top sixteen in the [[Indigo League]]. Prima isn't impressed and starts to leave. She turns and asks them all to come to her demonstration later. They enthusiastically accept. | Prima continues to watch as Tauros uses {{m|Take Down}}.

Later, Ash and {{ashfr|his friends}} watch Prima battle from the stands of Mandarin Island Stadium. [[Team Rocket]] has also snuck in dressed as food vendors. James now fully recognizes Prima, and they plan to steal her Pokémon. The demonstration goes on for a while and Prima defeats every Pokémon she goes up against. Ash watches intently, determined to try to pick up some tips. After the demonstration, Prima invites Ash and his friends to her house for some tea. As Misty and Tracey thank her for inviting them and rave about her Pokémon, Ash sits in silence. Suddenly, he speaks up and announces his suspicions that Prima is trying to teach him reverse psychology (or '''''perverse''''' psychology, as he calls it). Prima tells them that every person has a particular way of acting in and out of battle. She explains to them that she is like the water. She usually "goes with the flow", but when she's in battle, she becomes as cold as ice. She walks outside, and tells Ash that the most important thing is knowing where your strength lies. Ash may be strong in some ways, but he needs to develop what comes from the inside. | Later, Ash and {{ashfr|his friends}} watch Prima battle from the stands of Mandarin Island Stadium.
