<i>With the Johto League Silver Conference behind them, Ash, Brock and Misty head back to Viridian City to relax. Their vacation is cut short when Misty receives an urgent call beckoning her back to Cerulean City to run the gym while her sisters cruise the world. Brock, too, realizes that has things he has to do. After a teary goodbye, Ash returns home to Pallet Town—but soon grows restless for adventure. When his former rival Gary takes off on a new journey, leaving behind all of his Pokémon except Blastoise, Ash starts thinking about his next journey. Maybe it's time to check out the Hoenn region after all.</i>

In a nearby field, Misty and Kim prepare to battle one-on-one. Misty sends out her {{TP|Misty|Politoed}} and Kim his {{p|Hitmonchan}}. Misty orders a {{m|Water Gun}}, and Politoed is easily able to knock Hitmonchan to the ground. Misty mocks them into changing their names (from the Invincible Brothers), which then provokes Kail and Kai to send out their Pokémon, {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmontop}}. The three fighting Pokémon surround Politoed, and Misty calls them out on cheating, stating she can't battle fairly three-on-one. However, she is saved when Ash and Brock arrive to make the match fair. Pikachu is able to get Hitmontop with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and Brock sends out {{TP|Brock|Forretress}}, who gets Hitmonlee with a {{m|Rapid Spin}}. Misty is glad to see her friends again, but angrily tells them she could have handled it. Ash and Brock tell her that they knew she could, but they wanted one last battle with the three of them. Ash then tells Misty that she's a great {{t|Water}} [[Pokémon Trainer]], and he knows she can win the battle. Misty is touched by Ash's kind words, and with her faith in their friendship restored, she orders Politoed to use {{m|Bubble}} Attack which devastates Hitmonchan. Pikachu and Forretress then continue their assault on the other two, much to the brothers' dismay.

As the battle rages, {{TRT}} appear, and [[Jessie]] and [[James]] comment on the brothers losing. {{MTR}} cuts in, and on his command {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} presses a button which causes two goals to appear on opposite ends of the field. The Trainers all notice this, and much to their horror the goals start to come together trapping Ash, Misty, Brock, the brothers, and all the Pokémon inside. The brothers become distraught, claiming to be on Team Rocket's side. This reveals that the three were hired by Team Rocket to battle and tire Ash and the gang out. However, since they failed, not only will they not be getting paid (not that they were going to get paid anyway), but Team Rocket will take their Pokémon along with the others. Fortunately, Kim (having a pair of scissors handy) cuts the net away, releasing everyone. The brothers and their Pokémon quickly surround Team Rocket, and begin to cause a fuss over their money, much to Jessie's annoyance. This distraction and the brothers' destruction of the net allow Ash, Misty, and Brock to escape. They order Pikachu, Politoed, and Forretress to triple-team Team Rocket, the brothers and their Pokémon, who are all sent blasting off.

With the excitement over, Ash tells Misty how great it was watching her battle, and she thanks him. Ash informs her that he and Brock brought her bike, and Misty's excitement quickly diminishes. On the path towards Pewter and Cerulean, Misty tells Ash not to forget to look after himself and Pikachu. She also tells Brock to try to not fall in love with all the girls, which makes him laugh. She then says that she needs to tell Ash one more thing, "Just keep on doing your best." Ash asks what she means, and Misty sadly responds by saying that it's going to be different without her there.

Sitting on a tree, Ash tells Pikachu he doesn't like the feeling of being alone, and still isn't sure about what to do next. Suddenly Pikachu alerts Ash, who then looks up in the sky and spots a sparkle. To Ash's amazement, it's {{an|Ho-Oh}}! Watching it fly away, Ash notices it's heading towards the [[Hoenn]] region. He knows that Hoenn has a lot of Pokémon he's never seen before, and a lot of battles awaiting him. Suddenly Ash feels his spirit return, and decides to do like Gary and make a fresh start and head to Hoenn. He starts to run home, but falls into a classic Team Rocket pitfall trap.

Ash comments on how he was not "prepared" for the fall, and Jessie goes into her lines of the motto. James mentions that the pit is extra deep, and the three have gone back to the classic plan of snaring Pikachu. James calls out {{TP|James|Weezing}} to send a {{m|SmokeScreen}} down the pit. Soon the entire area is filled with smoke causing Ash and Pikachu to start choking. Ash tries to think of something to do, and remembers Misty and Brock's final words and parting gifts. He gets an idea, and after fishing them out of his [[bag|backpack]], has Pikachu cover its mouth with the handkerchief given to him by Misty while he climbs out with the cutlery given to him by Brock. As he climbs out of the pit, he realizes that he is never alone. Ash springs from the pit trap and confronts Team Rocket, informing them that his friends will always be with him. Ash orders Pikachu to hit them with a Thunderbolt, blasting them off yet again. With the dust clearing, Ash looks at the gifts from Brock and Misty, thanking them. He looks up into the sky and comments on the beginning of another journey to become the greatest Pokémon Master.

Back home, Ash tells Professor Oak and Tracey that he has decided to do the same as Gary and leave all of his Pokémon besides Pikachu at the lab. Professor Oak guesses that Ash is heading to Hoenn, and Ash tells him that he plans to meet [[Professor Birch]] in [[Littleroot Town]]. Tracey agrees with Ash's idea because of Professor Birch being famous for his field work. Ash thanks his friend, when Delia arrives with [[list of clothing in the anime|new clothes]] and a new backpack for her son, having guessed he would be leaving soon. She also has his ticket for the ferry that departs from the [[Seafoam Islands]] to the Hoenn region. Professor Oak gives Ash a brand new [[Pokédex]] that contains all the information on the Pokémon that reside in the [[Hoenn]] region. Tracey also tells Ash he can count on him to take care of his Pokémon while he's away. With a renewed sense of determination, Ash gets ready to set off for Hoenn, knowing that a brand new set of adventures await him.

* The flashback about the good times Misty spent with her friends is different in both versions: the dubbed English flashback pushes {{s|Poké}} while the original Japanese flashback focuses on Misty's accomplishments as a Pokémon Trainer and as a friend, and even ends with a group shot of Ash, Pikachu, Misty, Togepi, Brock, and Tracey (specifically created for this episode).
