While passing through a forest on their way to the [[Azalea Gym]], {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} hears a strange noise in the vicinity, and then observe a {{p|Gligar}} jumping from tree-to-tree before vanishing from sight. Ash uses his [[Pokédex]] to bring up information on Gligar while {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} discuss the {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, the latter explaining that they are said to be temperamental and dislike humans. Upon hearing this, Ash jumps in, expressing confidence that any Gligar they come across would like him before he begins calling out to Gligar. Suddenly, the road underneath the trio suddenly collapses and they fall into a large hole. As Ash wonders how it got there, {{TRT}} appears and recites their {{motto}} while simultaneously placing a bamboo grate over the hole and wheeling over a two-man pump and attached hose. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] operate the pump while {{MTR}} aims a torrent of water into the hole, explaining that they plan to fill it with water and steal {{AP|Pikachu}} when he floats to the top, before leaving the others trapped.

{{AP|Pikachu}} is left unable to attack out of fear of electrocuting Ash and his friends as well. Just then, Gligar appears, breaks through the bamboo grate, and saves {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}. A man dressed like a Gligar then appears next to Gligar on a tree and tells Team Rocket to release Ash and his friends. Confused, they all ask who he is; the man bursts into his own motto and introduces himself as [[Mr. Parker|Gligarman]]. Jessie and James comment that they have never heard of him, which embarrasses Gligarman. Then, Meowth then asks why Gligarman is wearing long underwear, which embarrasses Gligarman even further. As Gligarman defends his choice of clothing, Team Rocket continues to question whether the masked man really is a superhero, though Misty defends him. Pleased by this, Gligarman sends Gligar to dispatch Team Rocket.
