{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{Tracey}} are riding {{AP|Lapras}} across the ocean. They want to stop and find somewhere to eat, and Tracey says that they are getting close to [[Mikan Island]], where one of the four [[Gym Leader]]s in the Orange Crew is. They talk to {{an|Professor Oak}} at the [[Pokémon Center]]. Meanwhile, {{TRT}}, now in a {{p|Magikarp}} [[Team Rocket's mechas|submarine]], is tracking them, but their submarine gets tangled in seaweed.
{{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{Tracey}} ride {{AP|Lapras}} across the ocean. Feeling hungry, Tracey says that they are getting close to [[Mikan Island]], also home to one of the four [[Gym Leader]]s in the Orange Crew. Meanwhile, {{TRT}}, now in a {{p|Magikarp}} [[Team Rocket's mechas|submarine]], is tracking them, but their submarine's propellers gets tangled in seaweed and they begin to sink.


On Mikan Island, Ash, Misty, Tracey, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} walk along the path and see [[Mikan Gym]] up ahead, but as Ash runs toward the Gym, he spots a coconut on the ground next to a tree. He runs over to it with Pikachu and picks it up, but a bucket of water falls on their heads. The coconut was a trap set by a boy named {{OBP|Senta|EP085}}, but he is told off by [[Cissy]], his older sister and the Mikan Gym Leader.
The group finally make land and head straight for the [[Pokémon Center]]. There, Ash talks to {{an|Professor Oak}} via videophone and lets him know he recently caught a Lapras. Tracey officially introduces himself to the Professor, though the call is cut short as [[Ash's Muk]] smothers him. Tracey is still buzzing over his chance to meet Professor Oak, though looks forward to a future in-person meeting. Ash, Misty, Tracey, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} walk along the dirt path and see [[Mikan Gym]] up ahead. Ash starts to runs toward the Gym, though he stops after seeing a coconut on the ground. He runs over to it with Pikachu and picks it up, but a bucket of water falls on their heads. The coconut was a trap set by a boy named {{OBP|Senta|EP085}}. He chastises Ash, and criticises his Top 16 position in the [[Indigo League]]. As he challenges Ash to a {{pkmn|battle}}, but [[Cissy]], his older sister and the Mikan Gym Leader, intervenes and scolds her younger brother.  


On the Orange Islands, the Gym battles are different from Pokémon battles. First is a Water Gun challenge, where Ash's {{AP|Squirtle}} and Cissy's {{p|Seadra}} shoot Water Guns at cans on the wall and flying plates. Both are evenly matched and hit every target. To decide the winner, they both aim for the same target, and hit it at the same time.
Ash is raring to go, but Cissy explains that on the Orange Islands, the Gym battles are different from Pokémon battles. Senta presses the buttons on his remote, making a line of cans appear and the battlefield becomes an aquatic pool. Cissy proceeds to call out her {{p|Seadra}}, which Ash scans with his [[Pokedex]]. He cops a face full of water after insulting Seadra's appearance. Cissy announces that the first challenge is a {{m|Water Gun}} match up, where a Pokémon's accuracy is tested by shooting down as many cans as possible. Ash's {{AP|Squirtle}} proves an even match against Cissy's Seadra, and the challenge proceeds to shooting down flying plates. Both are evenly matched and manage to hit the final target at the same time. Cissy declares the first challenge a draw, and Ash congratulates his Squirtle's efforts while Seadra turns away in disgust.


To break the tie is a Pokémon Wave Ride, where Ash's Lapras and Cissy's {{p|Blastoise}} will race to a flag, go around it, and race back to shore. Before the race can begin, however, Team Rocket attacks. James had to go out and untangle their submarine, and nearly drowned trying to get back to the surface. He says it was similar to a poorly made for TV movie, and Meowth hits him with a hammer and tells him to stop being so dramatic. They capture Blastoise in a net, and head back underwater, but their submarine stalls and their pedals break. Blastoise is too strong for them and gets back to the surface. Pikachu dips his tail in the water and uses a Thunderbolt to shock them, and Blastoise sends them blasting off with Hydro Pump.
Cissy escorts Ash and his friends to outside the Gym. To break the tie, Ash will go up against Cissy in a Pokémon Wave Ride, where the aim is to swim out to a flagged buoy and return to the beach first. Cissy calls on her {{p|Blastoise}}, while Ash hopes that his Lapras will prove a good competitor. Before the race can begin, however, Team Rocket appears. Ash asks that they disappear, though [[James]] launches into a tear-filled confession about how he had to go out and untangle their submarine, and nearly drowned in the process. {{MTR}} calls for James to focus, snd James follows suit by calling out his {{p|{{TP|James|Weezing}}. Amongst Weezing's {{m|Smog}}, Team Rocket net Cissy's Blastoise and begin to dive back underwater. Unfortunately for them, their submarine's propellers are still entangled in seaweed. In a bid to push through, Team Rocket snap their pedals and their submarine sinks to the seafloor. Just as Cissy had predicted, her Blastoise proves to powerful for Team Rocket's net and as it makes a return to the beach. Pikachu dips his tail in the water and uses a {{m|Thunderbolt}} to shock them, and Blastoise sends them blasting off with its {{m|Hydro Pump}}.


With Team Rocket defeated, the Pokémon Wave Ride begins. However, Ash and Cissy must stand on their Pokémon's back. During the race, they are evenly matched; however, Ash nearly falls off and is caught by Lapras, but in the process Cissy gets ahead of him and turns around the flag first. Suddenly, a tidal wave comes up behind them, and Lapras freezes it with Ice Beam. The wave sends Cissy flying, but she is caught by Blastoise, and then they get ahead of Ash. Ash has Lapras use Ice Beam to make an ice track. Lapras is faster on ice than in water, and wins the race.
With Team Rocket defeated, the Pokémon Wave Ride begins. However, Ash and Cissy must stand on their Pokémon's back. During the race, they are evenly matched, so Ash has Lapras nudge the competition. Though Blastoise responds causing Ash to lose his balance. Fortunately Lapras catches him in time. The delay allows Cissy to get ahead of him and she makes the turn around the flag first. Just Ash has caught up with Cissy the pair notice a tidal wave suddenly appear behind them. To Ash's surprise, Lapras freezes some of the wave with its {{m|Ice Beam}}. However, the wave still crashes into Cissy and sends her flying, but Blastoise catches her in time. Cissy once again gets ahead of her challenger. Ash comes up with an idea and has Lapras use an Ice Beam to make an ice track. Lapras proves faster on the ice than in the water. Ash just wins the race as Lapras's head passed the finish line first.  


Cissy gives Ash a {{badge|Coral-Eye}}, and he and his friends ride Lapras off the island, continuing their Pokémon journey.
Cissy commends Ash's clever Ice Beam tactic, and notes that she can see why he made it so far into the Indigo League. In commemoration of his victory, she gives Ash a {{badge|Coral-Eye}}. Afterwards, he and his friends ride Lapras off Mikan Island to continue on their Pokémon journey.
