{{Ash}} and {{AP|friends}} arrive in [[Mossgreen Village]], a village so small it doesn't have its own [[Pokémon Gym]]. Because of this, Ash feels that there's no reason to stop there. However, {{an|Brock}} reveals that their bag of [[potion]]s and [[antidote]]s is empty, so they should stock up on supplies in town. Meanwhile, [[Team Rocket trio|Team Rocket]], hot on their trail, is about to make their move on {{AP|Pikachu}}. Before they get far, however, they discover {{MTR}} has fallen ill. Deciding that the loss of Meowth is worth the capture of Pikachu, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] begin to leave him behind; they are immediately scolded by a girl, who lashes out at them for abandoning their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} (believing that Jessie and James were Meowth's [[Pokémon Trainer|trainers]]). She then nurses Meowth back to health and, during this process, Meowth has fallen for the girl. | {{Ash}} and {{AP|friends}} arrive in [[Mossgreen Village]], a village so small it doesn't have its own [[Pokémon Gym]].

In town, the group arrives at an herbal shop to purchase their medicine. Entering, they find an [[Cassandra's grandmother|old woman]] grinding herbs. When they request to buy some potions and antidotes, she offers them snake root that will cure insomnia and grow hair on their nose and tongue. The old woman is then scolded by the same girl who helped Meowth, her granddaughter, named [[Cassandra]]. {{an|Brock}} immediately falls for her, trying to make small talk about how he intends to be the best {{ | In town, the group arrives at an herbal shop to purchase their medicine.

At the battle, Cassandra sends out her {{p|Paras}}, while Pikachu leads off for Ash. However, before the battle, Pikachu tries to make friendly talk (in a show of sportsmanship), but it causes Paras to cower in fear. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is spying on the battle, intent on stealing Pikachu; Meowth is distracted by Cassandra, as he intends to repay her for healing him. | ||
Meanwhile, Cassandra admits her ulterior motive in battling: she wants to make this Paras [[Evolution|evolve]] so that she could use {{p|Parasect}}'s mushroom to help develop a miracle Pokémon medicine. Paras is acting cowardly, fearful of battling. Agreeing to "throw the battle" by going easy on Paras, the battle gets off to a rocky start when Pikachu fires a small "static bolt" at Paras, which unfortunately knocks it out. While Cassandra tries to get Paras back into shape, {{an|Misty}} suggests Ash try a different Pokémon. As Paras is both a {{type2|Bug}} and a {{type2|Grass}}, Ash decides to send out {{AP|Squirtle}}, for which Paras would be at an advantage. However, that does not go too well either, as Squirtle's weakened {{m|Water Gun}}, meant to just "sprinkle Paras' mushrooms a little", also manages to knock it out. Desperate to help Paras evolve, Ash sends out {{AP|Charmeleon}}, despite the massive advantage it has, telling it to go easy on Paras. Charmeleon refuses to obey, gets too violent, and instead of doing an easy, soft attack, it launched a full-power {{m|Flamethrower}} at Paras before sending it flying by smacking it with its tail. This causes Paras to run away. When Ash tries to rein in Charmeleon, he too, is blasted in the face. Pikachu decides to hit Charmeleon with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, enabling Ash to recall it. Ash can't believe Charmeleon is acting this way, as he was so excited when Charmander evolved, but apparently Ash wasn't ready for it. Misty tells Ash to deal with the problem with Charmeleon later and that they need to find Paras. | Meanwhile, Cassandra admits her ulterior motive in battling: she wants to make this Paras [[Evolution|evolve]] so that she could use {{p|Parasect}}'s mushroom to help develop a miracle Pokémon medicine.
