{{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}} is swimming in a river, filled with many {{t|Water}} Pokémon, when a {{p|Gyarados}} comes towards him and lifts him out of the water. Ash calls {{AP|Pikachu|Pikachu (M20)}} for help, jumping off Gyarados before Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the {{pkmn|category|Atrocious Pokémon}}. The young {{pkmn|Trainer}} throws a {{i|Poké Ball}} at Gyarados, but after a few shakes, Gyarados escapes the attempted {{pkmn2|Caught|capture}} and swims away. Taking the loss well, Ash waves Gyarados goodbye before turning his attention to {{OBP|Len|JNS05}}, another Trainer who had been swimming with him. Once both of them are in their proper clothes, they have a brief {{pkmn|battle}}, which ends with Pikachu defeating Len's {{p|Machamp}} with a Thunderbolt. Ash and Pikachu subsequently make their way to a [[Pokémon Center]], where Ash's mother {{Delia}} contacts them and tells Ash that she's in [[Tonari Town]], where she's going to be meeting Ash's father the next day. Excited at the thought of seeing his father again after a long time, Ash sets off towards Tonari Town. Behind him, the [[Team Rocket trio]] sheds their latest [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguises]] and bolts off after him, once again aiming to steal Pikachu. | {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|M20|Ash}} is swimming in a river, filled with many {{t|Water}} Pokémon, when a {{p|Gyarados}} comes towards him and lifts him out of the water.
