Getting to a phone, Misty finds out the call is from her sisters. It turns out all three are going on an around-the-world trip that they won in a beauty contest, and therefore need Misty to take over the [[Cerulean Gym|Gym]] while they are away. Misty can't believe what she's hearing, and is angry when Ash and Brock comment on how lucky the sisters are winning the trip. Misty objects about having to take over for her sisters, but Ash, not seeing Misty has other reasons for her objections, tells her that it's only temporary. Nurse Joy then surprises Misty with her [[Bicycle|bike]]! It turns out the previous Nurse Joy was able to fix it good as new. Seeing the bike brings back a lot of memories for Misty. Misty remembers how her journey with Ash began, when he [[EP001|stole the bike and ended up destroying it]]. Ash happily comments on how good Nurse Joy did in the restoration, and that Misty can get back to [[Cerulean City]] even quicker. This causes Misty's feelings to become hurt. After Ash asks why she was so grouchy, Misty runs out of the Pokémon Center. Ash is confused by Misty's reaction, and Brock points out that Misty may have expected to continue traveling with them. | Getting to a phone, Misty finds out the call is from her sisters.

Misty wanders the streets of Viridian City very sadly, and comments on how Ash doesn't seem to understand or care that the trio will be splitting up. However, around the corner are three Trainers waiting for her. They ask Misty if all her friends have abandoned her, angering Misty even further. Misty asks who they are, and the three introduce themselves as Viridian City's top Trainers; Kim, Kail, and Kai the [[Invincible Pokémon Brothers]]! Misty mocks them by word play on "invincible" with "invisible", telling them to disappear. The leader Kim continues to irritate Misty, who then challenges them to a [[Pokémon battle]]. | Misty wanders the streets of Viridian City very sadly, and comments on how Ash doesn't seem to understand or care that the trio will be splitting up.

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. | In a nearby field, Misty and Kim prepare to battle one-on-one.

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. | 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.

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 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. | Ash comments on how he was not "prepared" for the fall, and Jessie goes into her lines of the motto.

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. | 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.
