A week has passed since [[EP106|their time on Ascorbia Island]], and {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} have been unable to get off [[Butwal Island]] due to the fierce current. Despite the scarcity of human food, {{Tracey}} concedes that their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} will be well-fed, as much of the local plant life is considered safe for [[Pokémon food|Pokémon consumption]]. However, when they try to pull up some edible flowers from a group of rocks, they come across a local {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Gulzar]], who is not pleased, as the flowers were part of a headband on his head. A series of faux pas made by Ash and Tracey prompt Gulzar to challenge the former to a {{pkmn|battle}}. | A week has passed since [[EP106|their time]] on [[Ascorbia Island]], and {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} have been unable to get off [[Butwal Island]] due to the fierce current.

Gulzar begins by sending out a {{p|Gloom}}. Knowing that Gloom is weak to {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Flying}} attacks, Ash intends to send out {{AP|Charizard}}, but {{AP|Squirtle}} is sent out instead. Sticking with Squirtle, Ash decides to use {{m|Water Gun}}, but the attack instead refreshes Gloom. | Gulzar begins by sending out a {{p|Gloom}}. Knowing that Gloom is weak to {{t|Fire}} and {{t|Flying}} attacks, Ash intends to send out {{AP|Charizard}}, but {{AP|Squirtle}} is sent out instead. Sticking with Squirtle, Ash decides to use {{m|Water Gun}}, but the attack instead refreshes Gloom. [[Recall]]ing Squirtle, Ash tries once again to send out Charizard, but he accidentally drops his {{i|Poké Ball}} onto a rock, damaging it and releasing a sleeping {{AP|Snorlax}} instead of Charizard. Ash attempts to wake Snorlax up, but the {{pkmn|category|Sleeping Pokémon}} continues to snooze. Gulzar, desperate to get the battle started, has Gloom attack Snorlax with {{m|Solar Beam}}, and the impact causes it to wake up. However, it crawls towards Gloom and attempts to eat it, forcing Gulzar to recall Gloom. Still hungry, Snorlax eats Gulzar's knapsack lunch and his head of flowers, infuriating Gulzar to the point of tears. Ash tries to return Snorlax, but as Snorlax's Poké Ball is damaged, it cannot return. Gulzar, fearful for his life, flees and taunts Ash and his friends, claiming the nearest [[Pokémon Center]], where they can have the Poké Ball repaired, is over a mountain. | ||
After trying to tow Snorlax on rollers, Tracey hatches a plan to lure Snorlax into following them using an apple. Unfortunately, Snorlax manages to eat the apple before they can go anywhere. However, Misty realizes that by disguising Ash as an apple, Snorlax will be able to chase Ash as long as Ash can be ahead of Snorlax. Ash initially objects to the idea, | After trying to tow Snorlax on rollers, Tracey hatches a plan to lure Snorlax into following them using an apple. Unfortunately, Snorlax manages to eat the apple before they can go anywhere. However, Misty realizes that by disguising Ash as an apple, Snorlax will be able to chase Ash as long as Ash can be ahead of Snorlax. Ash initially objects to the idea, but soon concedes as it is his own Snorlax. As Misty intended, this does manage to lure Snorlax all the way uphill. Upon approaching a river, the group builds a log raft, loads Snorlax on it, and begins to float down. However, when they set off downstream, they quickly encounter rapids and then a large waterfall that they all fall over. Though they survive, they believe they are drowning, but Gulzar shows up again to point out that they are in shallow water where they can just stand up. | ||
Later, the group makes it to the Pokémon Center, only to find a large crowd there, angry due to the fact that their food shipment is being hampered by the stormy sea weather. [[Nurse Joy]] manages to calm the crowd and assures them that the delayed shipment will arrive by airdrop. As the airdrop arrives, however, it is plucked from the air by {{TRT}}, who quickly ransoms the food shipment for {{AP|Pikachu}}, but Ash refuses to hand him over. The crowd is angered by this, but Gulzar jumps to Ash's defense. Seeing that Ash will not simply give Pikachu, Team Rocket propositions him to put up Pikachu against {{MTR}}, who has been put in a [[Team Rocket's mechas|super armor]]. Ash reluctantly accepts, but quickly finds out that Pikachu's {{t|Electric}} attacks are easily absorbed by Meowth's armor. Furthermore, Meowth's armor has a mechanized "{{m|Fury Swipes}}" attack that easily crushes rocks, and Ash claims that his original terms were unfair. | Later, the group makes it to the Pokémon Center, only to find a large crowd there, angry due to the fact that their food shipment is being hampered by the stormy sea weather.
