[[Brock's Croagunk|Croagunk]] fails to stop Brock from hitting on [[Nurse Joy]], instead choosing to stare out the window, a fact which gives Brock slight alarm. | At the Celestic Town [[Pokémon Center]], [[Brock]] and {{an|Dawn}} are packing to head out while {{Ash}} is perfecting a technique to counter [[Fantina]]'s {{m|Hypnosis}}.

Saturn and his [[Saturn's Toxicroak|Toxicroak]] lead a team of helicopters to the roof of the Research Center. Brock's Croagunk releases itself from its [[Poké Ball]] and heads down a hallway, causing Brock to chase after it while the rest of the group takes the Lustrous Orb to the main entrance way, where Saturn is waiting. Saturn reveals that his {{p|Bronzor}} has put everyone outside to sleep, while his Toxicroak has taken care of everyone inside. Toxicroak, however, is shown to be in a face-off with Croagunk, and Brock realizes that Croagunk had sensed Toxicroak's presence all along. | Saturn and his [[Saturn's Toxicroak|Toxicroak]] lead a team of helicopters to the roof of the Research Center.

Just then, Croagunk falls through the skylight, followed by Toxicroak, who finishes off Croagunk with a {{m|Poison Jab}}. The episode ends as Cynthia prepares to release another Pokémon for battle. | Saturn tries to use Bronzor's {{m|Hypnosis}} attack, but Cynthia sends her [[Cynthia's Garchomp|Garchomp]] out to face it instead and it defeats it easily.
