EP105: Difference between revisions

==Plot==

On Tad’s boat the gang is told by Tad that he is also trying to get into the "Pokémon League" and that he had been after Ash had battled for his Badge and that Ash had used pure power to win. Misty comments that Ash does not have any skill. Tad challenges Ash to a battle claiming that he likes to challenge people who know what they're doing. Misty, however, jokes about this by pretending not to see Ash while Tad describes him. They then set a course toward [[Cleopatra Island]] which they presume to be deserted.  

Ash, not very phased by Pikachu’s defeat, tries to match power with power and uses {{AP|Charizard}}, much to the horror of Misty and Tracey. Charizard appears and looks ready to battle. Ash comments that he can handle Charizard but Charizard in turn, like normal, {{m|Flamethrower}}s Ash. Tad notices this and asks Ash if he is sure about the choice, Ash says he is but it proves to be a big mistake as Charizard flies off on its own. Charizard does nothing that Ash tells it and flies around trying to get Poliwrath with a Flamethrower and fails every time. Tad explains to Ash that Charizard may be powerful but he is unable to control it. The match comes to an abrupt end when Poliwrath narrowly misses with its Water Gun on Charizard’s tail and instead unleashes a powerful {{m|Ice Beam}}. It hits Charizard who is locked in a cage of ice all over, save for its tail. Tad recalls Poliwrath but promises Ash a rematch once he learns how to handle Charizard. Tad leaves with Charizard freezing and Ash seething from the defeat. Team Rocket watches the match noting that they know how it feels but they are determined none the less to get Pikachu.  

===Pokémon===

[[File:WTP EP105.png|200px|thumb|right|Who's That Pokémon?]]

* {{p|Pikachu}} ({{OP|Ash|Pikachu}})

* {{p|Meowth}} ({{TRM}})

==Trivia==

* The events of ''[[M02|The Power of One]]'' occur after this episode, despite it premiering before the episode aired. This is mainly because Charizard is obeying Ash in the movie.

* This episode is featured on ''Volume 3: Charizard'' from [[Viz Media]]'s {{OBP|Pokémon All-Stars|Region 1}} series.

* The belt that Tad's Poliwrath is wearing greatly resembles to the [[P1 Grand Prix]]'s belt that [[Ash's Primeape]] wears at the end of ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]'', it is very possible that Tad is born, or lives in the city where the P1 Grand Prix takes place, as he mentions it himself.

* According to [[Pokémon.com]], this is the season finale of [[S02|Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands]].

===Errors===

===Dub edits===

* This episode was aired before ''[[EP103|Misty Meets Her Match!]]'' in the United States, causing some confusion on when Ash actually obtained his third Badge or even that Ash's Charizard was disobeying him once more after the airing of this episode.

* ''{{so|Pokémon World}}'' replaces ''Type: Wild'' in the dub.
