==Plot==
The episode begins with {{an|Dawn}} placing one of {{an|Brock}}'s classic stew pots onto a table, in the center surrounded by smaller plates with salad on them. Beside the table are {{Ash}} and Brock, who have just finished preparing the food for the Pokémon. Ash calls over to the group's Pokémon that are playing in a stretch of water nearby to come and get it, which they do in earnest. Brock seems happy at how well the group of Pokémon are getting along and how they seem to be enjoying the food. On ground level, {{TP|Dawn|Swinub}} starts to take too much of a liking to {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}'s food portion but is stopped by the no-nonsense penguin who pushes it back. {{AP|Turtwig}} gets between the two bickering Pokémon and stops the fight before it starts, while Ash and Dawn laugh at the squabbling duo. Ash then realizes that {{p|Gligar}} is nowhere to be found and gets up and starts to look around for the missing Pokémon. Ash calls out its name, and is replied instantly by an affectionate Gligar who drops down from the sky and lands straight on top of Ash slamming him to the ground. Ash wonders where Gligar went to, and Gligar starts to use {{m|X-Scissor}} to show Ash that it has been training. Ash is impressed, and Brock wonders if maybe it's trying harder to get stronger after [[DP081|being defeated]] by [[Paul]]'s {{p|Gliscor}}. Dawn tells Brock to hush as he's hurting Gligar's feelings and Ash comforts the upset Pokémon by telling it that they'll do some training together soon.
{{cleanup|section}}
{{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} begin eating. As they do, Brock seems happy at how well the group of Pokémon are getting along and how they seem to be enjoying the food. On ground level, {{TP|Dawn|Swinub}} starts to take too much of a liking to {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}'s food portion but is stopped by the no-nonsense penguin who pushes it back. {{AP|Turtwig}} gets between the two bickering Pokémon and stops the fight before it starts, while Ash and Dawn laugh at the squabbling duo. Ash then realizes that {{p|Gligar}} is nowhere to be found and gets up and starts to look around for the missing Pokémon. Ash calls out its name, and is replied instantly by an affectionate Gligar who drops down from the sky and lands straight on top of Ash slamming him to the ground. Ash wonders where Gligar went to, and Gligar starts to use {{m|X-Scissor}} to show Ash that it has been training. Ash is impressed, and Brock wonders if maybe it's trying harder to get stronger after [[DP081|being defeated]] by [[Paul]]'s {{p|Gliscor}}. Dawn tells Brock to hush as he's hurting Gligar's feelings and Ash comforts the upset Pokémon by telling it that they'll do some training together soon.


After the group finish their meal, a practice battle between Gligar and {{AP|Buizel}} is set up so Gligar can practice some of its moves. Gligar seems confident, before Buizel starts to look at it with an evil smirk. Gligar's confidence starts to waver, but Ash tells it that everything will be fine and that a battle like this is just what it needs. Gligar is satisfied by this, and Ash starts the battle off by telling Gligar to use X-Scissor. Gligar tries hitting Buizel with the attack, but the Sea Weasel proves too fast for it and keeps dodging every attack. Ash then tells Buizel to use {{m|Aqua Jet}}, which it does jumping into the air and speeding towards Gligar with a high powered water attack. Gligar falls to the ground and starts crying, before jumping into Ash's arms and clinging to his head. Buizel continues its attack and smashes straight into Ash, who is far from impressed. Ash asks Gligar what is wrong, but Dawn tells him that he's going about it the wrong way and kneels down to Gligar's level. She then starts comforting it, stroking and gives it a hug which makes Gligar blush and stop crying.

Brock suggests that Ash should maybe use a different Pokémon, and Ash calls out Turtwig to battle against Gligar. Ash tells Turtwig to use {{m|Energy Ball}}, which Gligar manages to dodge but only because it's trying to run away. Ash tells Gligar to use {{m|Steel Wing}}, which it does but falters when Turtwig stares at it ferociously, ready to defend. Gligar then spins around and starts chasing after Ash, who starts to run away. Gligar swoops down, knocking over Ash again with its weight. Ash wonders what is wrong with Gligar and starts to scold the Pokémon who takes it a little too harshly and flies away sobbing. Watching all of this is {{TRT}} who are hiding in the bushes. [[James]] thinks this is the perfect chance to steal Gligar, who will now be alone and defenseless. {{MTR}} explains that they could capture Gligar and send it to {{an|Giovanni|the Boss}}, who could use it to shield his eyes in the morning when the sun peeks in through the window. [[Jessie]] thinks this is a great idea, and the three celebrate at their latest plan.

Back with Ash, Dawn, and Brock we find them calling out for the missing Gligar to no avail. {{AP|Staravia}} then flies onto the scene, and Ash asks if the bird Pokémon has seen Gligar. Staravia nods, and the gang follow it to a forest clearing where they find Gligar along with a familiar face: Ash's old [[rival]] turned {{pkmn|Professor|Pokémon Researcher}}, [[Gary Oak]]. The two greet each other, and Dawn is instantly awe-struck by seeing '{{an|Professor Oak|the poetry guy's}} grandson' again. Gary asks about Gligar, to which Ash replies that it is his. Ash explains that they were in the middle of a battle when it ran off. Gary smirks playfully at Ash and suggests that maybe Ash isn't able to look after his Pokémon. Ash takes the bait and says that he and Gligar get along just fine. Ash then calls Gligar back to him, but Gligar recoils in fright. Ash grabs a hold of Gligar telling to stop being silly, but Gligar refuses to budge and continues to hide behind Gary. Brock comments that Gligar may not trust Ash anymore and Ash grits his teeth in frustration. Not soon after, the two begin a battle to try to train Gligar up. Ash starts the battle off by telling Gligar to use Steel Wing, which is followed by Gary who tells {{TP|Gary|Umbreon}} to use {{m|Shadow Ball}}. The attack misses Gligar, but the scared Pokémon recoils in fear and falls back down and lands on Ash. The group then start theorizing on what could be wrong with Gligar, and then the battle starts again. Taking in some of the conversation between the group, Gligar starts warming up to the battle by bouncing on its tail before jumping up to fly. However, once in the air Gligar becomes scared at how high it is and falls back down to the ground and lands on Ash.

At that, Gary says that he has something that may help Gligar, and pulls out a [[Razor Fang]] and hands it to Ash, telling him the Razor Fang will make Gligar [[Evolution|evolve]] into Gliscor. Gligar tries to grab the item from Ash but Ash stops it, putting his hand out to stop the over-eager Pokémon telling it that evolution is no substitute for hard work. Suddenly, a large noise is heard from nearby and Team Rocket emerge from the trees in a Gliscor-shaped balloon. The team then recite their usual motto, followed up by {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} who pops out of its Poké Ball as usual. Gary isn't impressed to see Team Rocket again, who he regards as lame, which annoys the trio to no end. In retaliation to those words, they release the spike of the Gliscor balloon which shoots out and grabs onto Gligar, pulling it in. Ash jumps onto the tail and is pulled towards the balloon along with it much to Team Rocket's annoyance. Ash then calls out Staravia, which is followed by Jessie sending out {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} to use {{m|Haze}} and {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}} to use {{m|Silver Wind}}. Seviper appears out of its Poké Ball and releases a deep purple smoke which blinds Staravia, which is followed up by Yanmega which uses Silver Wind to send it plummeting down to the ground.
