En route to [[Ecruteak City]], {{Ash}} is afflicted with stomach ache, caused by some earlier over-eating. With no medicine to treat it, {{ashfr|the group}} are greeted by [[Old Man Shuckle]], a pharmacist. The old man gives Ash some pills, which he takes, resulting in an explosion of purple gas from his mouth. When Ash recovers, though, he reports that his stomach ache is now gone. Old Man Shuckle explains that his medicine works on both humans and Pokémon, and {{an|Brock}} is excited to discover that he makes the medicine himself, quickly taking the old man up his offer to show him where the medicine is made. | En route to [[Ecruteak City]], {{Ash}} is afflicted with stomach ache, caused by some earlier over-eating.

Back at his laboratory, Old Man Shuckle thanks the group for helping him obtain more Shuckle juice than ever before. He presents Brock with some Pokémon-taming medicine, as promised, but Brock decides to decline. Having seen how the Shuckle flocked to Team Rocket in spite of their nature, he says he would prefer to tame Pokémon the normal way. The friends bid Old Man Shuckle goodbye and continue on their journey. Meanwhile, Team Rocket are hiding in the bushes from a flock of amorous {{p|Beedrill}} and {{p|Ursaring}}, noting that when the effects wear off after three days, they will probably attack... | Back at his laboratory, Old Man Shuckle thanks the group for helping him obtain more Shuckle juice than ever before.
