<i>Our heroes continue their Pokémon training without a break even over spring vacation, when what should appear before them but a carnival. Ash, Brock and Pikachu join in the fun, eventually discovering a rather dull magic show being performed in a small cabin. The magician begs Misty to become his assistant, but because of his poor magic skills, the magician is fired. Feeling sorry for him, Brock, Ash and Misty suggest working together to create a Pokémon magic show.</i> | |||
==Plot== | |||
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} find themselves in a town on the same day as a carnival. Excited to party, {{an|Brock}} and Ash change into funny outfits and start dancing. {{an|Misty}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}, embarrassed, walk away, go on some rides, and eat some ice cream. Soon after, Misty notices a woman shouting at [[Melvin|a man]] with an {{p|Exeggcute}}. The woman shouts something about a payment the man owes her, shoves him back into a box, and walks away. Misty asks the man if everything is alright and he asks her if she'll be his assistant for his magic show, since his previous assistant just quit. He introduces himself as Melvin and conjures some flowers and flags. Misty agrees to help him, but just for the day. | {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} find themselves in a town on the same day as a carnival.

Misty is forced to wear a leotard adorned with {{p|Goldeen}} fins and is embarrassed, but, luckily, only four people showed up to the show. Unfortunately, Ash and Brock arrive and Ash laughs at her while she is on stage. Melvin then starts to juggle his Exeggcute and everyone, even Misty, thinks it's boring. Melvin then pulls out a wand and a tiny flame comes out; the crowd falls back and make exclamations like "That was pathetic!" He tries again, and a huge jet of flame comes out. Misty tells him to be careful, but he's so thrilled the trick actually worked that he doesn't listen to her and the fire sprinkler system in the building activates, drenching the audience.

The carnival manager fired Melvin because of the stunt and wants to give up all his dreams, but Ash and co. promise to give him some tips. | ||
Ash performs his own trick involving a "magic" box with fire and water "magically" shooting out of the top, but it really just contains {{AP|Charmander}}, {{AP|Squirtle}}, and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}. The three {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} get into a fight inside the box and subsequently ruin Ash's trick. Ash says that Melvin's Exeggcute doesn't do much, so it uses {{m|Hypnosis}} on him. Brock and Misty wonder why Ash is acting so dopey, especially after he follows Melvin's command and spins in circles while acting like a {{p|Bulbasaur}}. After Melvin realizes how he can control Ash, he and Ash sneak away from Brock, Misty, and Pikachu. | Ash performs his own trick involving a "magic" box with fire and water "magically" shooting out of the top, but it really just contains {{AP|Charmander}}, {{AP|Squirtle}}, and {{AP|Bulbasaur}}.
