As Ash and Misty eat, Tracey tells them that [[Lorelei|Prima]] (known in the games as Lorelei) is going to give a lecture on the island. Misty is ecstatic, and tells Ash and Tracey that Prima is her hero. She hears a voice behind her, and turns to see Prima herself! Misty and Tracey introduce themselves while Ash chokes on his sandwich. She walks past them, however, and bends down to look at {{TP|Misty|Togepi}}. | As Ash and Misty eat, Tracey tells them that [[Lorelei|Prima]] (known in the games as Lorelei) is going to give a lecture on the island.

Nearby, {{MTR}} watches from the bushes while [[Jessie]] and [[James]] eat. They peer through their binoculars, and James recognizes Prima. Unfortunately, he doesn't remember who she is. Prima looks out at the ocean, and makes many philosophical comments about nature. But all Ash wants is a {{pkmn|battle}}. | Nearby, {{MTR}} watches from the bushes while [[Jessie]] and [[James]] eat. They peer through their binoculars, and James recognizes Prima. Unfortunately, he doesn't remember who she is. Prima looks out at the ocean, and makes many philosophical comments about nature. But all Ash wants is a {{pkmn|battle}}. However, Prima continues to ignore him. Ash interprets this as an admission that she is afraid to battle and goes off in search of someone else. He does find an opponent who accepts his challenge. As Prima watches, Ash offers to let the boy set up the rules and they agree on two {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} each. Ash sends out {{AP|Squirtle}}, and the boy releases a {{p|Persian}}. | ||
Squirtle uses {{m|Water Gun}}, but Persian dodges it. It unleashes a {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack, but Squirtle uses {{m|Withdraw}}. Squirtle then pops out of its shell and {{m|Skull Bash}}es Persian, and knocks it out. The boy then sends out a {{p|Tauros}}, who {{m|Tackle}}s Squirtle right away knocking it out. Ash withdraws Squirtle and sends out {{AP|Charizard}}, but Ash still cannot control Charizard and it burns him. | Squirtle uses {{m|Water Gun}}, but Persian dodges it.

Prima continues to watch as Tauros uses {{m|Take Down}}. Charizard then uses {{m|Flamethrower}}, knocking out Tauros in one hit. He then {{m|Fly|flies}} into the air and attempts to burn everything in sight. Ash tries to call it back, but the beam from the [[Poké Ball]] misses.

He then {{m|Fly|flies}} into the air and attempts to burn everything in sight. Ash tries to call it back, but the beam from the [[Poké Ball]] misses. When Ash gets burnt by Flamethrower again, Prima is forced to intervene, sending out her {{p|Slowbro}}, who uses {{m|Disable}}, immobilizing Charizard in midair. It then brings it down to the ground, and Ash succeeds in calling it back. Prima asks Ash if he knows what he is doing, and he defends himself by saying that he was in the top sixteen in the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]]. Prima isn't impressed and starts to leave. She turns and asks them all to come to her demonstration later. They enthusiastically accept. | ||
Later, Ash and {{ashfr}} watch Prima battle from the stands of Mandarin Island Stadium. {{TRT}} has also snuck in dressed as food vendors. James now fully recognizes Prima, and they plan to steal her Pokémon. The demonstration goes on for a while and Prima defeats every Pokémon she goes up against. Ash watches intently, determined to try to pick up some tips. After the demonstration, Prima invites Ash and his friends to her house for some tea. As Misty and Tracey thank her for inviting them and rave about her Pokémon, Ash sits in silence. Suddenly, he speaks up and announces his suspicions that Prima is trying to teach him reverse psychology (or '''''perverse''''' psychology, as he calls it). Prima tells them that every person has a particular way of acting in and out of battle. She explains to them that she is like the water. She usually "goes with the flow", but when she's in battle, she becomes as cold as ice. She walks outside, and tells Ash that the most important thing is knowing where his strength lies. Ash may be strong in some ways, but he needs to develop what comes from the inside. | Later, Ash and {{ashfr}} watch Prima battle from the stands of Mandarin Island Stadium. {{TRT}} has also snuck in dressed as food vendors.

Ash then once again challenges Prima to a battle which she accepts. They agree on one Pokémon each, and send out their Pokémon. Ash uses {{AP|Pikachu}}, and Prima chooses {{p|Cloyster}}. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but Cloyster Withdraws into its shell. As a result the attack has no effect. Pikachu uses {{m|Agility}}, but is knocked back by Cloyster's {{m|Reflect}} attack. Pikachu uses {{m|Thunder}} which hits but then Cloyster starts to glow red. Tracey warns Ash that this is {{m|Rage}}, which increases its Attack level. Pikachu tries a {{m|Quick Attack}}, but is pummeled by {{m|Aurora Beam}} and Take Down. Ash loses. | Ash then once again challenges Prima to a battle which she accepts.

Prima calls back Cloyster, and looks at Pikachu to see if he is okay.

She tells Ash that he has the skills he needs to be a Pokémon Master, but he needs to remember that his Pokémon are the ones who win the [[Badge]]s. She tells him that with his Pokémon and friends at his side, he will always succeed. She then tells him that if he wins all of the Gym Badges in the [[Orange League]], he will be presented with an "Honorable Trainer" trophy. Ash then thanks Prima. | ||
Suddenly, voices sound from above. It | Suddenly, voices sound from above. It is {{TRT}}, and they ask if Prima has a recording of her lecture on a CD. She replies that it's on tape only, and whispers to Ash and his friends that it's $18.95. Team Rocket falls out of their [[Team Rocket's mechas|balloon]], then says their [[Team Rocket mottos|motto]]. Misty correctly guesses that their original plan was to steal Prima's Pokémon, but they tell her that they figured they would lose. They then decided to stick with the program and steal Pikachu. Ash gets ready to fight, but Prima tells him that she will take care of it. | ||
She sends out {{p|Jynx}}, who uses {{m|Ice Punch}} and freezes Team Rocket. Jynx then uses {{m|Blizzard}} and blows them into the sky. The pieces from the ice block rain down, making sparkles in the sky. Everyone watches, amazed. That evening, Prima tells Ash that the nearest [[Trovita Gym|Gym]] is on [[Trovita Island]], which is straight across the bay on the other side of Mandarin Island. Ash and his friends thank Prima again for everything that she taught him. They wave farewell, and head towards their next adventure. | She immediately sends out {{p|Jynx}}, who uses {{m|Ice Punch}} and freezes Team Rocket.
