==Synopsis==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr|friends}} have stopped to rest at a mountain stream. All of the Pokémon are in the water, having a good time. {{an|Brock}} is brushing {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}}'s tail. The scene shifts to {{an|Misty}} talking to {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} about how good the water feels. {{TP|Misty|Poliwhirl}} drifts by on its back, and Misty tells it not to drift too far. Poliwhirl waves okay, but all of a sudden a huge {{p|Poliwrath}} comes up behind Poliwhirl. Misty comments on how tough it looks, and Brock says that it doesn't look too friendly. The Poliwrath smacks down Poliwhirl and then uppercuts it through the air. Poliwhirl lands by the bank, K.O'd. Misty comments on how it's nothing but a big bully. All of a sudden, a [[Andreas|boy]] appears out of nowhere and insults her Poliwhirl. Misty asks him if the Poliwrath is his, and why it attacked her Poliwhirl. The boy answers that he thought it was a wimp. Misty tells him to take it back, but the boy questions her by saying that Poliwhirl is so scared that it's hiding behind Misty. He finishes by saying that he can't expect much from a "plain old Poliwhirl" and says that if it was any good, it would have [[Evolution|evolved]]. Brock defends Poliwhirl by saying that there are lots of great Pokémon that aren't fully evolved, and that Poliwhirl is a great Pokémon. The boy starts making fun of all of Misty's Pokémon, and Misty loses it and challenges him to a battle. The boy says that he'd love to, but already has other plans. He recalls Poliwrath and leaves, but not without telling Misty to work on her Poliwhirl.

After this, the gang starts walking down a trail. They eventually come across a large mass of people with fishing rods walking in the same direction. Ash asks a boy if there is a good fishing spot nearby and the boy responds that there is an annual {{p|Seaking}} [[Seaking Catching Day|Catching Competition]].

Andreas then gets a bite as well. He has Poliwrath get ready and then pulls it out. Poliwrath uses {{m|Mega Punch}} on Seaking, followed by DoubleSlap. Seaking flies out of the water and Andreas catches it, bragging that it is a guaranteed winner. The loudspeakers come on and the voice says that only ten minutes are left in the competition. As Andreas is driving away, he says that if Misty wants a chance at second place then she better hurry. Misty announces that it's time to use her secret weapon, which is [[Misty's special lure]], version 4. She throws out her lure and waits intently, and a giant Seaking bites it. It almost pulls her in, but she manages to pull it out of the water. She sends out Poliwhirl, but it gets slapped by Seaking's tail. Poliwhirl flies back and bounces off the boat. Poliwhirl bounces back and DoubleSlaps the Seaking. Misty catches it in her Lake Ball, as the buzzer rings, announcing the end of the contest. Team Rocket, having not caught a Seaking, walk away with only a commemorative badge. The announcer weighs Andreas's Seaking, which weighs 55 kilograms, and Andreas brags that he's number one once more. Suddenly, Misty arrives, yelling for the judge to wait. They weigh her Seaking, which turns out to weigh the same as Andreas's, meaning that the two of them must face off in [[Pokémon battle]] to determine the winner. Misty sends out Poliwhirl while Andreas sends out Poliwrath. Brock comments that the odds are against Misty. Just as the battle begins, Team Rocket descend from the sky in their balloon. Jessie sends Meowth out on a fishing pole, and he starts bagging all the chocolate. Misty commands Poliwhirl to attack it with {{m|Water Gun}} and Andreas commands Poliwrath to do the same, causing Meowth to drop the bag. Ash sends out {{TP|Ash|Bulbasaur}} and has it use {{m|Vine Whip}} to catch the falling chocolate. With the chocolate safe, Ash has Pikachu give them a Thunderbolt, sending them blasting off again.

The battle resumes, and Andreas has his Poliwrath use {{m|Submission}}, which sends Poliwhirl flying. Brock explains to Ash that after a Poliwhirl evolves, it can use {{type2|Fighting}} moves. Andreas says that he's won, but Poliwhirl gets back up and hides behind Misty's leg. Misty says that she knows it's doing its best but wishes that it had more confidence in itself. {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}}, {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}, and {{tp|Misty|Goldeen}} pop out of their Poké Balls, and Misty tells Poliwhirl that there are lots of great unevolved Pokémon, and that it's one too. Poliwhirl is pumped up and ready to get back in the battle. Andreas says that it's no use, but Misty has Poliwhirl use {{m|Bubble}} and then follow up with Mega Punch. Poliwrath falls, but Andreas has it use Mega Punch as well. Poliwhirl dodges it and uses Bubble again, followed by a Water Gun that KO's Poliwrath. Misty and Poliwhirl are dancing, and she tells it she knew it wasn't a wimp. Andreas pulls Poliwrath out of the water and congratulates Misty on a job well done. He then apologizes for the things he said, and Misty accepts his apology.

At the end of the episode, Misty is sending her chocolate bars out. She gives some to her [[The Sensational Sisters|sisters]], [[Brock's siblings|Brock's family]], {{an|Professor Oak}}, {{Tracey}}, and {{Delia|Ash's mom}}, while keeping a few for her and Togepi, causing Ash to complain that he didn't get any.

* Andreas says that if Misty's Poliwhirl were strong it would've evolved by now. But both of Poliwhirl's evolutions are item-induced. Therefore, Poliwhirl's strength has nothing to do with evolving.
