May trains late into the night, testing all four of her Pokémon to see which is the best choice for the upcoming Contest. {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} stumbles and trips in its attempted combination, but May remains confident and happily remembers the compliments she got from the MFP earlier that day. Her reminiscence is interrupted by Drew's voice, calling out orders to his new {{p|Masquerain}}. Drew notices May watching him and brags that "winning this Contest will be a cinch." Drew also notices May's Pokémon, and inquires about her new Bulbasaur, a rare find in the [[Hoenn]] region. Drew insults May's Bulbasaur as undisciplined. His comments provoke May, who decides to use Bulbasaur in the Contest, a decision which startles the rest of the group. Meanwhile, Savannah nears the breaking point from stage fright, but completely forgets her fear at the sight of Bulbasaur, which she says was her first Pokémon long ago. May and Savannah decide to start a practice battle to train, with Bulbasaur having the disadvantage against Savannah's Flareon. However, the battle is cut short by Team Rocket's interruption. | May trains late into the night, testing all four of her Pokémon to see which is the best choice for the upcoming Contest. {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} stumbles and trips in its attempted combination, but May remains confident and happily remembers the compliments she got from the MFP earlier that day.

James and Meowth are less than enthusiastic about the Ribbon theft operation, but Jessie sends out her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} to combat the Pokémon Savannah and May already have out. However, Ash, Brock, and Max quickly arrive on the scene. Flareon's {{m|Flamethrower}} is deflected by {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}}. [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Brock's Lombre]] and {{TP|Brock|Mudkip}} are quickly called out to join the battle. Dustox uses {{m|Poison Sting}} while Pikachu uses {{m|Thunderbolt}} to block. Wobbuffet deflects a pair of {{m|Water Gun}} attacks. Jessie orders her Dustox to attack Sandra with {{m|Psybeam}}, but that's the breaking point for Savannah. She becomes angry that Jessie would dare attack her daughter and orders Flareon to launch another Flamethrower attack. Wobbuffet steps forward, but the attack was aimed at the balloon, not Wobbuffet. Team Rocket goes down in flames. Jessie declares that she would rather give up James and Meowth than the Ribbons. This angers James and Meowth, who convince Jessie to surrender the Ribbons to the group. Sandra and Savannah launch a {{m|Water Pulse}} which sends Team Rocket blasting off. In the end, the Coordinators anxiously await the start of the Rubello Town Contest. | James and Meowth are less than enthusiastic about the Ribbon theft operation, but Jessie sends out her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} to combat the Pokémon Savannah and May already have out.
