They can use {{type|Flying}} Pokémon to steer, and {{type|Fire}} Pokémon for hot-air. The balloons must first ascend to 1,000 feet up in the air and race towards a target on the ground. They then must drop a weight and try to land as close to the X on the target as possible. | ||
In one race, {{an|Brock}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{Ash}} tied for first with [[Skyler]] and [[Tenma]]. Because there was only one prize of a new balloon engine available, Ash and {{ashfr}} decided that Skyler should have it as participating and learning about ballooning was enough of a prize for them. {{TRT}} also competed in this race but failed to finish. | |||
