Tad apologized and instantly recognized Ash, following Rudy's comments on his strength. At Tad's request, he and Ash competed in a two-on-two battle. Tad sent out his {{p|Poliwrath}}, and managed to defeat both [[Ash's Pikachu]] and {{AP|Charizard}}, the latter instance being only because Charizard refused to listen to Ash. He then told Ash that he would accept a [[rematch]] with him when he learned how to train his Charizard. | ||

Tad also has at least one other Pokémon, as he intended to use a total of two Pokémon against Ash. However, as Poliwrath had defeated both Pikachu and Charizard, this second Pokémon was never seen. | |||

* The belt that Tad's Poliwrath is wearing greatly resembles to the [[P1 Grand Prix]]'s belt that [[Ash's Primeape]] wears at the end of ''[[EP029|The Punchy Pokémon]]''. It is very possible that Tad is born, or lives in the city where the P1 Grand Prix takes place, as he mentions it himself. | |||
* Tad mentions that he hopes to compete against Ash in the Orange League, but it was later shown that the Orange League does not involve a [[Pokémon League Conference]]. In the Japanese version, he merely wishes they both work hard in Orange League. | |||
