To succeed in the tournament, Ash has to earn eight [[Badge]]s from the [[Kanto]] [[region]] which allow him to proceed to the [[Elite Four]] and, eventually, the Puzzle Champion. He can do so by fighting the respective Kanto [[Gym Leader]]s in puzzle matches. Other characters, such as {{Tracey}} or {{TRT}}, interrupt him on his way and also challenge him to a fight.

They are welcomed by {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}}, who reveals that he is the Puzzle Master, and he set up the Puzzle League to find a worthy foe and clones Ash's Pokémon. They challenge him to a last fight, from which Ash emerges victorious once again. However, upon his victory, Ash is transported back to where he started his adventure.
