The chapter starts off with {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} finishing the first round of the Novice Tournament at [[Indigo Plateau]], winning with his {{AP|Kingler}}, who evolved from Krabby during the battle, much to the surprise of the other Trainer and the audience. Ash is later credited with the occurrence, though the narrator reveals the incident to have been a complete coincidence. The reader's viewpoint then shifts to an overhead view of the Novice Tournament's Stadium, and reveals [[Professor Oak]] and another man to be the two announcers for the Novice Tournament. [[Jessie]] and [[James]] can be seen wearing disguises as employees selling refreshments to members of the audience, suggesting that they perhaps have a nefarious plan in action. Returning to Ash, he is seen at a stand labeled "Poké Ball Registration", suggesting that Trainers are allowed to keep more than the usual six {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} on site at the tournament, but are required to leave them in the care of League Employees when not exchanging them for battles. {{Gary}} enters the lobby, much to their mutual delight, demonstrating that in the time that passed between chapters, Ash and Gary have become friendly rivals, both striving for the same goal, but both respecting each other. Gary seems to have lost his condescending attitude along his journey, and now seems to respect Ash as an equal. They tease each other with lighthearted boasting, and Ash promises to cheer for Gary in his upcoming battle. | The chapter starts off with {{OBP|Ash Ketchum|EToP|Ash}} finishing the first round of the Novice Tournament at [[Indigo Plateau]], winning with his {{AP|Kingler}}, who evolved from Krabby during the battle, much to the surprise of the other Trainer and the audience.
