Paul recalls his Pokémon, and mentions that the Gliscor lives up to its reputation. Ash asks Paul if he's there to capture the Gliscor, but Paul is apathetic as usual and tells the others to keep out of his way before he walks off. Just then [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]] turn up (much to Brock's usual happiness). It turns out that this isn't the first time people's food has been stolen, but just then Brock begins his usual declaration of love. Luckily {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}} is there with a {{m|Poison Jab}} to stop him making too much of an idiot of himself before dragging him away. | Paul recalls his Pokémon, and mentions that the Gliscor lives up to its reputation.

At the local [[Pokémon Center]], which has a garden on the roof filled with {{type|Bug}} and {{type|Flying}} Pokémon, Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy tell the gang that the Gliscor and Gligar have reduced the city into a ghost town.

After stripping the city bare of all the natural fruit and vegetables that were growing there, they're now stealing the food out of people's hands. Brock is confused, as Gliscor and Gligar are known for living in the forest, not in the city. It turns out that one night, a very powerful storm blew Gliscor into the city with its strong winds. The same winds, which are caused by the numerous skyscrapers in the city, prevented Gliscor leaving and as a result Gliscor started to attract the Gligar from neighboring areas with sound waves magnified by the buildings. Numerous attempts to capture the Pokémon have failed. Officer Jenny, however, has a new plan which involves using Gligar's favorite fruit as bait. The gang all pledge their support. | ||
Meanwhile Gliscor and the Gligar have taken refuge in an abandoned warehouse. Suddenly a tub of fruit shoots through the window. All the Gligar start to tuck in, but then they all grow suspicious and along with Gliscor look through the window to see a truck carrying fruit driving down the road. They all give chase... apart from the one that fell on Ash earlier which was too busy stuffing its face from the tub to notice it had been left behind. Finally spotting the others gone, it finishes the food and joins the chase. | Meanwhile, Gliscor and the Gligar have taken refuge in an abandoned warehouse.

The truck is being driven by Officer Jenny, and it turns out the plan is to lure the Pokémon into a strong wind current which should blow them out of the city and allow they to return to the forest. However the plan is ruined when Gliscor and the Gligar are captured by Team Rocket in their balloon. [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} perform the [[Team Rocket mottos|motto]] as usual and start their getaway. Unfortunately, the container that the Pokémon are being held in is so strong it is able to easily resist Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}, Piplup's {{m|BubbleBeam}} and Gliscor's {{m|X-Scissor}}. Team Rocket begin to boast about how the container is resistant to pretty much everything, when the straggler Gligar catches up and pulls its strange face, and Ash recognizes it from their earlier encounter. It turns out that while the container is almost indestructible, the rope holding it isn't as the Gligar cuts the rope which causes the container to fall onto the remains of the building. The container is destroyed, and Gligar is sent flying. Ash runs to save it, and Gligar ends up landing on him just like earlier. Meanwhile Gliscor and the other Gligar obviously aren't too happy about the attempted capture and all use X-Scissor on the balloon, which causes the balloon to crash and Team Rocket are sent blasting off again! The balloon also crashes onto the building remains, and the road is blocked by the debris. This causes the wind direction to change, and Gliscor and the Gligar help themselves to the fruit on the truck. All of this has been observed by Paul. | The truck is being driven by Officer Jenny, and it turns out the plan is to lure the Pokémon into a strong wind current which should blow them out of the city and allow they to return to the forest.

Just then the gang have an idea; if they can't send Gliscor and the Gligar into a wind current, then they'll produce one using a {{m|Gust}} from the Pokémon at the Center. It's a good idea, and Ash decides to talk to Gliscor to let it know they just want to help. | ||
In an alley, Team Rocket | In an alley, Team Rocket is consoling themselves with some food when they notice Gliscor and the Gligar have arrived. They are quickly on the run, when suddenly an Ice Beam hits, and Team Rocket are sent blasting off for the second time this episode. The Ice Beam came from Paul's Weavile, and Paul orders a {{m|Blizzard}} which freezes all the Gligar solid. Gliscor responds with a {{m|Sandstorm}}, melting the ice and the numerous Pokémon make a getaway. However, the Gligar Ash saved is once again left behind, and is greeted by Ash and his friends. It pulls its now trademark strange face, but then starts to follow its group, and is itself followed by the gang. | ||
In a nearby alley, Paul confronts Gliscor and sends out {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}} to partner Weavile. He orders an Ice Beam/{{m|Thunder}} combo, but there are so many Gligar flying about neither can target. Paul yells at his Pokémon to focus, and orders a {{m|ThunderPunch}} from Electabuzz which hits several Gligar. Gliscor isn't happy about seeing its group attacked and uses X-Scissor on Electabuzz, which sends the {{type|Electric}} flying into Weavile and Paul. Ash and the others arrive along with the Gligar they've now befriended. Ash tells Gliscor they can help it return to the wild, but before it can answer it is hit by Paul's Ice Beam/Thunder combo, sending it crashing to the ground. Paul then throws a Poké Ball, and successfully captures the Gliscor. As usual, Paul scans Gliscor with his Pokédex and sees that it's quite strong and decides to keep it. Ash asks Paul what about all the Gligar it was leading but naturally Paul couldn't care less. The Gligar known to Ash and the group makes a run at Paul but Electabuzz hits it with a ThunderPunch sending it flying. Recalling his Pokémon to their Poké Balls, Paul talks some more trash to the gang and leaves. | In a nearby alley, Paul confronts Gliscor and sends out {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}} to partner Weavile.
