-===Spotlight on: Hey You, Pikachu!===
+===Sinnoh Now: "Hearthome City Tag Battle Competition"===
-* '''Hey You, Pikachu!''' (Japanese: '''ピカチュウげんきでちゅう''' ''Pikachu Genki dechū'') was the first game in a series of Pikachu-based games which would later be followed by {{g|Channel}}, and [[PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure]].
+* The '''[[Hearthome City]] Tag Battle Competition''' is the tournament that [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]], [[Brock]] and {{an|Dawn}} took part in ''[[DP050|Tag! We're It!]]'', ''[[DP051|Glory Blaze]]'', and ''[[DP052|Smells Like Team Spirit]]''.
-* It was released in Japan on December 12, 1998, and in North America November 6, 2000 for the [[Nintendo 64]], and was one of only two games for the console to use the [[Voice Recognition Unit]].
+* The winners get two {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}}s, one for each winner.
-* It was the first Pokémon game to be developed by [[Ambrella]]
+* The tournament pairs up two different people, using a battle card with a presumably two numbers, that person and their partner.
-* The player took control of a young boy that lived with his mother who befriends a {{p|Pikachu}} and the pair share a number of adventures together, communicating through voice commands.
+* The notable trainers among the participants include Ash, Paul, {{an|Brock}}, [[Holly]], Dawn and Conway.
-* A special blue and yellow Pokémon-themed Nintendo 64 and controller were released in bundle packs with this game.
+* Other than [[Pokémon League Conference]]s, this is the second time {{Ash}} and a rival participated in the same competition. The first time this happened was when Ash and [[Gary]] took part in an extreme Pokémon race.
-* In Japan, this game was the first to feature a [[Generation II]] Pokémon, {{p|Togepi}}, who would not appear in the main series until a year later.
+* During the tournament, [[Paul]] releases his Chimchar. However, Ash invites it to join his team instead, upon which Chimchar agrees.

+* Ash and Paul defeat {{an|Dawn}} and [[Conway]] in the final round and win {{DL|Out-of-battle effect item|Soothe Bell}}s.
+* The entire arc, [[DP050|''Tag! We're It...!'']], [[DP051|''Glory Blaze!'']] and [[DP052|''Smells Like Team Spirit!'']] was aired as a 90 minute special on February 1st, 2008 on [[Cartoon Network]].
+* The time between the original Japanese airing and first English dub airing of this episode is the shortest of all episodes, with only 99 days between them.
+* The final episode of the arc, [[DP052|''Smells Like Team Spirit!'']], is the last episode where {{TPCi|Pokémon USA}}'s voice actors dub at {{TAJ}}. Beginning with the following episode, [[DuArt]] was used as the studio to record and distribute the anime.
