Admiring his full collection of [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s, {{Ash}} can't wait to get into the [[Hoenn League]]. {{an|May}} is excited as well about her upcoming [[Pokémon Contest]] in Pacifidlog Town. | ||
The ship docks at [[Giban Island]], and Ash calls {{an|Professor Oak}} from the [[Pokémon Center]]. Ash says he plans to do some serious training before the tournament. Oak says he and {{Delia}} will be there to cheer him on. Outside, at their campsite, Ash is anxious to do some {{pkmn|training}}, and runs off with {{AP|Pikachu}}. May gets excited again about her Contest, saying that if she wins, she’ll qualify for the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]]. She begins to polish her {{ball|Poké}}s in preparation. Meanwhile, we see something watching from the bushes. Once she has her Poké Balls all polished up nicely, she puts them back into her bag, one by one. She takes {{TP|May|Combusken}}’s and {{TP|May|Skitty}}’s Balls, but when she looks up, the Balls containing {{TP|May|Bulbasaur}} and {{TP|May|Beautifly}} are gone! | The ship docks at [[Giban Island]], and Ash calls {{an|Professor Oak}} from the [[Pokémon Center]].

Ahead, Ash is about to send out a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to start training, but is suddenly hit from behind by a charging {{p|Linoone}}. Ash and Pikachu go flying, and upon landing, Ash checks out Linoone in the [[Pokédex]]. Linoone runs off, breaking the trail’s handrail in the process. The next thing Ash knows, a foot lands on his back! May, who accidentally stepped on him in her hurry, turns around in surprise. Max and Brock show up as well, and Max asks if Ash just saw a Pokémon run by. Ash says he saw a Linoone. May says that Linoone must be what they’re looking for. Ash asks if it had puffy cheeks, and imitates the face of the Linoone that hit him. May angrily confirms it. Ash asks what’s going on, and Brock fills him in. The four join up now to find Linoone and get {{cat|May's Pokémon}} back. Linoone’s trail leads them to a house, and they discuss this, since it seems the Linoone has a {{pkmn|Trainer}}. | Ahead, Ash is about to send out a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to start training, but is suddenly hit from behind by a charging {{p|Linoone}}.

Inside, [[Kimmy Shoney|a young boy]] sadly throws an empty battered Poké Ball across an empty room. Ash and friends appear at the entrance and Ash asks if he’s seen a Linoone. May explains that it stole two of her Poké Balls. The boy is quite upset by this, and apologizes profusely. It seems that his “Tokin” (his nickname for his Linoone) has been giving him some trouble.

[[Korban and Harmony Shoney|An adult couple]] appear now and greet Ash and friends, asking if they can help with something. Ash explains, and the boy confirms that Tokin is at it again. The adults now introduce themselves as the Shoney family. The father is Korban, the mother is Harmony, and the boy is their son Kimmy. Ash and friends introduce themselves as well. Kimmy now takes Ash and friends to a shed which contains an abundance of various round objects. Ash and friends are surprised at the collection, and Kimmy sheepishly explains that this is all Tokin’s doing. | ||
Max is surprised, and Kimmy goes on to explain in a {{wp|flashback}} that back when Tokin was a {{p|Zigzagoon}}, Kimmy often played fetch with it using its Poké Ball. Tokin loved this game, but took things too far. Even now that it’s a Linoone, it’s been habitually bringing back any round object it can find, and storing them at home. Kimmy says that he tried to explain that he only wanted the ball he actually threw brought back, but Linoone didn’t understand. Ash says that this reminds him of how his {{AP|Charizard}} used to misbehave, but confidently says that Charizard is over that now. Kimmy asks how he did it, and Ash says it was persistence. | Max is surprised, and Kimmy goes on to explain in a {{wp|flashback}} that back when Tokin was a {{p|Zigzagoon}}, Kimmy often played fetch with it using its Poké Ball.

While all this has been going on, May has been searching through the piles of balls and other round objects, but has been unable to find her two missing Poké Balls, and cries because of it. Kimmy says that Linoone sometimes hides things in a clearing near their home, so everyone heads out there. Ash and friends are surprised at the size of the place. | While all this has been going on, May has been searching through the piles of balls and other round objects, but has been unable to find her two missing Poké Balls, and cries because of it. Kimmy says that Linoone sometimes hides things in a clearing near their home, so everyone heads out there. Ash and friends are surprised at the size of the place. Korban comforts May by saying that they’ll all help her search, and May thanks him. The gang begins searching in bushes, in holes in trees, and so on. Harmony spots something shining inside a crack in a tree stump, and pulls out a ring. She and her husband are both delighted at the recovery of this ring which obviously has a lot of sentimental value, and they promptly start dancing, probably reliving some memory or other. | ||

Meanwhile, Pikachu peers into a hole in another tree stump, and cheers when it finds something. May runs over, thinking Pikachu found her Poké Balls, but instead, Pikachu places a bone in her hand! May freaks out and juggles it like a hot potato. Ash and Brock come over to find out what’s wrong, and Ash takes the bone. Max comes over and recognizes it as a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Thick Club}} and explains that it enhances the strength of {{p|Cubone}}, and {{p|Marowak}}.

Pikachu points at the stump’s hole again and says something, indicating there’s more to be found. Ash reaches in and pulls out a little bell that Max identifies as a [[Soothe Bell]]. Brock finds a {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Dragon Fang}}, but May is disappointed because her Poké Balls aren't among the items. Brock now explains to the group about Linoone's {{a|Pickup}} [[Ability]], and observes that this particular Linoone seems to be quite good at finding valuable things. As he talks, we get a view of the items in the stump. Inside the treestump is a [[King's Rock]], a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Thick Club}}, a blue crystal, a {{DL|Stat-enhancing item|Stick}}, a bell, two [[Deep Sea Scale|DeepSeaScale]]s, and two [[Deep Sea Tooth|DeepSeaTeeth]]. | ||
Team Rocket, of course, has been listening from the bushes. They're delighted upon hearing of Linoone's ability to find valuable things, and [[James]] says they should steal it for {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}}. {{MTR}} has a [[Boss fantasy|fantasy]] of Linoone repeatedly zipping by and dropping off presents galore for Giovanni, and Team Rocket does their usual cheer. Meanwhile, the search for the Poké Balls continues, while Kimmy's parents are still distracted with their earlier discovery. | Team Rocket, of course, has been listening from the bushes.

Suddenly, they hear a noise, and the dust from the landing clears to reveal Jessie and Meowth beating up on James because of his dumb move with Cacnea. Jessie notices the group, and calls for a Poison Tail from Seviper. James furiously calls for a Needle Arm from Cacnea. Kimmy calls for Tokin to use {{m|Water Pulse}}. Ash says it’s cool that Linoone can use a {{t|Water}} [[Move|attack]], and Kimmy says that Tokin can use Electric moves as well. Seviper and Cacnea are confused from the Water Pulse, and begin attacking each other! Jessie asks what’s going on, and James explains about Water Pulse. Jessie yells at their Pokémon, who then turn on them. Cacnea launches a {{m|Pin Missile}} at Jessie and James while Seviper uses Haze. Ash suggests that Pikachu and Tokin team up to finish them off, and Kimmy agrees. Pikachu and Tokin both use Thunderbolt, sending Team Rocket blasting off. Ash and Kimmy congratulate their Pokémon. | Suddenly, they hear a noise, and the dust from the landing clears to reveal Jessie and Meowth beating up on James because of his dumb move with Cacnea.

Later, it’s time for everyone to say goodbye. Kimmy says he plans to spend a lot more time with Linoone from now on, and his parents thank Ash & friends for everything. Kimmy pulls out a Poké Ball and throws it, telling Linoone to go fetch. As everyone watches, the narrator ends by explaining what everyone has to look forward to. Kimmy and Tokin will be bonding, Ash has the Hoenn League, and May still has that Contest coming up in Pacifidlog. | Later, it’s time for everyone to say goodbye.
