Synopsis
May displays her newly aquired ribbon as everyone is sitting on tires in a nearby field. Ash wants to hurry off to the next frontier contest as both May and Max tell him to wait as they May shows him an advertisement for a resturant and Max shows Ash an advertisement for The Strongest Pokémon at the Pokémon Dojo.
The line seems to be very long with everyone smashed together trying to get inside the resturant. A couple exit from the resturant and are fighting as May becomes fired up and Brock falls in love with the scene. They both dash off towards the group and continue off into the distance.
Meanwhile with Team Rocket, Meowth has constructed a stand to sell items or services. Ash and Max are walking in the distance as both James and Jessie notice them. After a few seconds, they dash off towards the two as Meowth tells them to wait a second. Ash and Max succesfully arrive at the Dojo while Max wonders if that is really the dojo. Ash and Max ask if anyone is there as an eruption begins and an old man ejects from the stadium and lands gracefully in front of Ash and Max. The old man introduces himself as both Ash and Max exchange greetings. The old man then starts pushing Ash into the dojo while nearby Team Rocket are spying nearby and notice that Ash has adventured off to the Pokémon Dojo.
Inside of the dojo, Max and Ash are cleaning the floor of the dojo as the old man is ordering them around. While cleaning the floor, both Max and Ash wonder where the battles are. Off in the distance, a strange noise starts emiting from the walls as the couple from before walk through the doorway with both May and Brock following. The young woman notices that May won the Kanto Pokémon Contest and asks her about it. The woman then starts talking with the dojo master as the man with her then envelopes in an argument with the dojo master and they both go at it with the dojo master swinging his sword wildly and both yelling back and forth.
Brock tries to interrupt the arguing but proves to be no effect as the two are still at it yelling and screaming at each other. The dojo master then suggests a Pokémon battle and they both take places at opposite sides of the field. The dojo master then quickly calls upon Hitmonlee from which Ash looks up its data. The young man quickly releases Hitmonchan from which May looks up its data. With both Hitmonlee's fast kicks and Hitmonchan's fast punches, this will be an unbelievable battle. Hitmonchan quickly launches a Mega Punch which knocks Hitmonlee back but it quickly recovers. The dojo master then jumps into the air kicking forward and directs Hitmonlee to use Mega Kick but then injures his back. Both May and Ash take the competitors places for the upcoming battle.
Nearby outside of the dojo, Team Rocket is spying on their actions. Hariyama and Hitmonlee are heated in battle as each quickly deliver attacks to one another and clash in the middle. Hitmonlee's kick proves successful and sends Hariyama spinning uncontrollabely as Hitmonlee then delivers another powerful kick which knocks Hariyama back ontop of Team Rocket hiding in the bushes knocking Hariyama out and unable to battle.
In the second round, Breloom and Hitmonchan are battling it out with both competitors throwing punches. Breloom then emits a Stun Spore but Hitmonchan quickly dodges this attack and the stun spore then floats over to Team Rocket which quickly stuns the trio. Both Pokémon meet in the middle with devasting Mega Punches but Hitmonchan's speed proves to be useful as its punch makes contact first knocking Breloom uncontrollabely into the air and delivers one last Comet Punch which knocks Breloom out and unable to battle.
The third round of the battle to begin with Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan. Hitmonlee quickly jumps into the air while Hitmonchan jumps towards Hitmonlee with a devasting Mega Punch making contact but also receives damage from Hitmonlee's devasting kick. Both Pokémon fly towards the ground and make direct contact. Hitmonchan sends another Mega Punch towards Hitmonlee but it is easily dodged and Hitmonchan is knocked into the wall by the devasting kick.
Hitmonchan quickly recovers and begins sending a barrage of punches towards Hitmonlee knocking it backwards. Hitmonchan sends another Comet Punch towards Hitmonlee which hits for direct damage and knocks Hitmonlee back into the wall.
May is now enraged with internal flames as Hitmonchan quickly moves into close proximety with Hitmonlee. Hitmonchan then tries to deliver a Comet Punch but is blocked by Hitmonlee's Upper Kick. Both Pokémon recover and make it an effort for one last Comet Punch but just before the attacks are released an explosion erupts in the ceiling with Team Rocket ejecting from the ceiling.
The usual introduction given from Jessie, James, and Meowth. Team Rocket's strange mecha has successfully captured Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan as they then try to escape. A young woman then quickly releases Hitmontop which Rapid Spins towards the mecha and releases both Hitmonchan and Hitmonlee. Hitmontop then spins around and delivers a Mega Kick to Team Rocket's mecha. Pikachu then delivers a devasting Thunderbolt which sends Team Rocket blasting off into the sky at the speed of light.
Apologies are exchanged with both the dojo master and the young man apologizing for their actions. The young man then recalls the past times with the master. At the nearby resturant, everyone enjoys a bowl of food prepared by the dojo master. As thanks are exchanged, everyone heads for the new frontier and a new adventure. (Written by: bgt)
