'''Jump for Joy!''' (Japanese: '''美女と野獣！？ダーテングとジョーイさん！''' ''Beauty And The Beast!? {{tt|Dirteng|Shiftry}} and {{tt|Joi-san|Nurse Joy}}'')! is the 37th episode of the {{series|Advanced Generation}}, and the 311th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It was first broadcast in Japan on August 7, 2003 and in the United States on August 27, 2004.  

==Synopsis==

While cutting through the mountains on their way to [[Mauville City]], {{Ash}} and {aAshfr}} decide to stop at a nearby [[Pokémon Center]] to rest for a while. Upon their arrival, however, they're met with an empty building; [[Nurse Joy]] is absent, and there's no sign of anyone else.

Outside, Shiftry is still battling Ash and Team Rocket. With a {{m|Gust}} and Bullet Seed attack, Ash's Treecko is thrown to the ground and nearly knocked out. It then blows Team Rocket away with another Gust. Nurse Joy appears soon after and tells Shiftry that there's no need to fight. She assures it that she'll take good care of Nuzleaf, but she needs to go back to the Pokémon Center to get some supplies. Ash comments on how far away it is, but Brock has an idea. He asks Shiftry if it can take him back to the Pokémon Center, and the Pokémon agrees, grabbing the unsuspecting {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} and zooming off into the forest with incredible speed.

[[Who’s That Pokémon?]]: {{p|Seedot}}

* {{p|Oddish}}

* {{p|Seedot}}

* {{p|Nuzleaf}}

*For reasons unknown, this episode, as well as ''[[AG038|A Different Kind Of Misty]]'', ''[[AG039|A Pokéblock Party]]'', and ''[[AG040|Watt's With Wattson?]]'' aired only twice on American TV. These may be classified as the lost TV episodes since [[Pokémon: Advanced]] underwent a three month hiatus on [[Kids' WB!]].

*Though ''Who's That Pokémon?'' is supposed to be completely random, Shiftry's pre-evolutions, Seedot and Nuzleaf, were this episode and the previous episode's ''Who's That Pokémon?'', respectively.

*Throughout the episode, an attack that involved a shiny blue powder that made things fall asleep was referred to as {{m|Stun Spore}} in the dub. This attack was obviously {{m|Sleep Powder}}.

*When [[Ash's Taillow]] uses {{m|Wing Attack}} on wild Nuzleaf, its wings are not glowing.

*When the group watches the security camera footage and first see [[Nurse Joy]], the window and curtains disappear. They reappear in the later scenes. Also, when [[Nurse Joy]] checks the window in the security camera footage, it was wide open. However, at the beginning of the episode, the window was only slightly open.

*There were a few scenes where May called out her Pokémon and she was not wearing her gloves.
