==Synopsis==
==Blurb==
As {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are walking in the woods on their way to the ferry port in [[Lilycove City]], {{AP|Pikachu}} is exceptionally happy. However, Pikachu’s happiness doesn't last long when the ground starts shaking. A tree starts falling down and almost hits Pikachu. After the sand clouds clear a big machine appears and is holding Pikachu. Once again, it's a contraption belonging to {{TRT}}. It's a machine they call the Mean and Nasty, Grumpy Grabber Mark One. Ash orders Pikachu to do a {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack; however the attack doesn't even phase the machine because it's made of a bunch of insulated recyclables mixed in with a bunch of rubber hoses. Ash and friends charge at the machine; however, they fall into a pitfall dug by Team Rocket. It seems that Team Rocket is winning until their machine starts sinking into the soft sand. After a short time the machine itself starts crumbling and then explodes, causing everyone to fly in the air. Ash tries desperately to catch Pikachu; however, Pikachu is much lighter than Ash, and so flies through the air much faster.

==Plot==
As {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are walking in the woods on their way to the ferry port in [[Lilycove City]], {{AP|Pikachu}} is exceptionally happy. However, Pikachu's happiness doesn't last long when the ground starts shaking. A tree starts falling down and almost hits Pikachu. After the sand clouds clear a big machine appears and is holding Pikachu. Once again, it's a contraption belonging to {{TRT}}. It's a machine they call the Mean and Nasty, Grumpy Grabber Mark One. Ash orders Pikachu to do a {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack; however the attack doesn't even phase the machine because it's made of a bunch of insulated recyclables mixed in with a bunch of rubber hoses. Ash and friends charge at the machine; however, they fall into a pitfall dug by Team Rocket. It seems that Team Rocket is winning until their machine starts sinking into the soft sand. After a short time the machine itself starts crumbling and then explodes, causing everyone to fly in the air. Ash tries desperately to catch Pikachu; however, Pikachu is much lighter than Ash, and so flies through the air much faster.


In the next scene, it appears Ash had blacked out and is starting to come around when he asks if everyone is alright. Everyone else starts coming around as well and says that they're okay as well. At least they think they are. [[Max]] asks what happened and {{an|May}} thinks that Team Rocket's machine blew up. Then Ash remembers what happened and starts frantically calling for Pikachu. Ash tries to make a run for it; however, he's stuck in a tree! [[Jessie]] and [[James]] are also affected by the blast. Not only are they pasted to a tree themselves but they lost {{MTR}}. Jessie thinks they should go back to base, but James thinks otherwise, since Meowth might be lost. When we see Pikachu he's lying in the grass unconscious. Pikachu sits up looking dazed and confused. He also happens to be sitting on top of Meowth's head. Meowth panics when he sees Pikachu, realizing that he might get zapped by him, but Pikachu doesn't shock Meowth. Meowth brings out his claws to attack Pikachu, but Pikachu doesn't do anything except stand there. Soon, Meowth realizes that Pikachu must have {{wp|amnesia}}. So Meowth plots to convince Pikachu that he belongs to Team Rocket and has been since the day he was born and how much he's been through. Pikachu believes Meowth!

As we rejoin Ash and friends, Ash orders {{AP|Swellow}} to go look for Pikachu as {{an|Brock}} orders {{TP|Brock|Mudkip|Marshtomp}} to look as well. Jessie and James are also lost in the woods. James calls out for Meowth and Jessie calls out for home base. James reminds Jessie that bases can't talk. Going back to Meowth and Pikachu, they are strolling happily through the woods looking for the Team Rocket base. Meowth remembers all the traps and pitfalls they got into trying to catch Pikachu, but as of today that's all in the past. Then, a {{p|Zigzagoon}} appears out of the bushes along with a Beedrill. Pikachu does a Thunderbolt attack on the {{p|Beedrill}} and it flies away. Meowth thinks about how kind Pikachu is and wonders who'd be mean enough to capture it and then remembers he's the bad guy so he would. Then Pikachu and Meowth continue their search for the base.

Jessie and James are then seen walking along the water still looking for base themselves. Jessie is still calling out to the base and James tells her the base can't talk.

Next Pikachu and Meowth are walking on a narrow ledge. Pikachu has no problem but Meowth is afraid. Meowth goes back to thinking Pikachu's kind and brave and only a complete jerk would capture and that's Meowth. Meowth then tells Pikachu a lie on how he once saved Pikachu's life when it was burning up with fever and Meowth was nursing him back to health. Then Meowth steps on a weak part of the ledge and falls through. Pikachu grabs Meowth by the tail and tries to pull him back up.

Ash and friends are still looking and calling for Pikachu. Then Mudkip gets a vibration of something to the right. They see the footprints from the same place as the earlier Beedrill attack. They recognize it to be the tracks of Pikachu, Meowth, and a Zigzagoon.

Jessie and James are trying to convince Pikachu that they are his buddies, and Pikachu falls for it. But then Ash comes and sees what is happening. Ash tells Pikachu how worried he was about him and asks Pikachu if he remembers him. Pikachu decides to go to Team Rocket rather than Ash, which shocks Ash to the core. Then Team Rocket perform the {{motto}}, this time with Pikachu participating at the end along with Meowth, and the gang can't believe that Pikachu would actually join the villainous trio. Ash continues trying to convince Pikachu that he is Pikachu's friend. James commands Pikachu to give Ash a Thunderbolt attack which sends him flying. Meowth commands Pikachu to do it again. Brock finally comes to the conclusion that Pikachu has amnesia. Then Team Rocket runs into their base, it explodes, and they come out with their balloon. Ash grabs onto the basket trying to get his best buddy back. James orders Pikachu to do a Thunderbolt but it shocks everyone. Ash and Pikachu start falling and Ash grabs on to him but they fall into a rushing river. They are then shown going down the river with several flashbacks playing.

Ash has since washed up on shore unconscious. Pikachu examines Ash and licks him on the face. Ash then starts coming around then and he sees Pikachu and notices Pikachu remembers him. Ash picks up Pikachu and hugs him. Ash starts tearing up, but Pikachu wipes Ash's tears away. Brock, May, and Max finally catch up to Ash and Pikachu. Team Rocket falls from the sky and lands in the water and asks the twerps to help them out because they can't swim. They all tell Team Rocket to help themselves. Ash commands Pikachu to give them a Thunderbolt which zaps them into the air and sends them blasting off again.
