Afterwards, Team Rocket is walking through the city, talking about food again. Jessie says that Meowth shouldn't have been so mean to Snubbull, but Meowth replies that he had to do it to save his tail. They hear Madame Muchmoney calling out for Snubbull. Thinking that they will be rewarded by Madame Muchmoney if they find Snubbull, they decide to use Meowth for bait by hanging him from a tree. Meowth is not very happy about this. Snubbull hears Meowth crying out to be let down and Jessie tells Meowth that they all have to make sacrifices.

Jessie and James start calling for Snubbull and she comes out; but instead of going straight for Meowth's tail, she just stands there, looking angry. Suddenly, Snubbull starts to [[evolution|evolve]] and becomes a {{p|Granbull}}! Jessie tries to send {{p|Wobbuffet}}, but the Pokémon backs far away, so she returns Wobbuffet to his [[Poké Ball]]. She sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} instead, who uses {{m|Tackle}} on the newly evolved Pokémon. Granbull sees Arbok's tail and, thinking that it is Meowth's tail, bites it. James sends out {{TP|James|Weezing}} and tells it to use its {{m|SmokeScreen}} attack. Arbok escapes from Granbull's bite and Meowth frees himself from his bonds. Using a remote control, Meowth summons forth a [[Team Rocket's mechas|giant Meowth robot]] and Team Rocket rush inside of it. Meowth makes the robot wag its tail and Granbull bites on. He drops a cage and tries to put Granbull in it, but Granbull won't let go of the giant tail.

Ash and the others arrive. They notice Granbull and Ash looks it up in the [[Pokédex]]. Madame Muchmoney recognizes the ribbons on Granbull's ears and tells the others that it's her Snubbull. Team Rocket notice the new arrivals, so Jessie and James come out of the robot and tell Madame Muchmoney that they had been looking for Snubbull everywhere. Ash and Misty suspect that Team Rocket are up to something while Brock wonders if they've turned over a new leaf; however, Jeeves and Madame Muchmoney thank them, and they reply that no thanks are necessary and that Madame Muchmoney's happiness is their reward. Madame Muchmoney then goes right by them towards Granbull. Jessie and James hope that they didn't take them seriously about not needing a reward.

Madame Muchmoney tries to pull Granbull off of the Meowth robot with Jeeves's help, but the Pokémon won't let go. Meowth, still inside the robot, also tries to get Granbull off the tail by electrocuting her, but it doesn't work. Since Madame Muchmoney and Jeeves are both holding Granbull, they get shocked as well. Meowth then tries getting her off by wagging the machine's tail, but this only succeeds in shaking off Jeeves and Madame Muchmoney. Ash, Misty, and Brock realize that Team Rocket really are up to no good.

Jessie and James finally return to their machine and announce that they will only give Granbull back if the group hands over Pikachu. Ash wants to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} but Misty points out that this would shock Granbull as well. Ash sends out {{AP|Cyndaquil}} instead and has it use its {{m|Flamethrower}} attack on the giant Meowth. The inside of the robot gets very hot, so Meowth tries to cool it down, but instead accidentally shoots the tail of the robot as a missile... with Granbull still latched on! Madam Muchmoney tries stopping the missile with her own hands but crashes into a tree with Granbull. The Pokémon finally lets go of the robot's tail and falls to the ground.

Madame Muchmoney asks Granbull if she's okay and states that the two of them will battle Team Rocket together. However, Team Rocket are ready for the attack. She orders Granbull to use {{m|Take Down}} while Meowth fires the robot's hands as missiles. Granbull then uses Tackle and Team Rocket get knocked back. Finally, Granbull uses {{m|DynamicPunch}} and knocks out the Meowth's TV monitor.

At this point, the robot goes haywire and crashes into a tree. Pikachu destroys it with Thunderbolt and Team Rocket gets blasted off again. Madame Muchmoney hugs Granbull, telling her that they will be a great team.  Granbull, Madame Muchmoney, and Jeeves all decide to have a race home, and Ash and Misty agree that Granbull wasn't the only one who evolved that day.
