{{TRT}} finishes digging a hole trap and disguises it with soil, leaves, and wood, though they fall into it soon after they forget its location. Meanwhile, {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{AP|Pikachu}} arrive at the outskirts of [[Pewter City]]. As Ash takes a rest on some rocks, he and Misty meet a mysterious man named {{ka|Flint}}, who sells rocks for a living. Flint escorts Ash, Misty, and Pikachu to the [[Pokémon Center]], where Ash is surprised to encounter [[Nurse Joy]] again. She explains that she is the [[Viridian City]] Joy's older sister. She directs Ash's attention to a poster promoting a tournament called the [[Pokémon League]] Championship and he decides to sign up. Before he can enter, however, he needs to defeat eight Pokémon [[Gym Leader]]s and earn a [[Badge|Gym Badge]] from each as proof of his victory. Flint walks in at this point and tells Ash about Pewter City's Gym Leader, {{an|Brock}}. He is openly skeptical of Ash's chances of winning, and laughs scornfully at the very thought of it. Over a meal, Misty warns Ash of Gym Leaders' prodigious skill and offers him advice, she becomes angry when he declines and walks off.

Ash stops by the Pokémon Center again to pick up his healed [[Party|team]] before making his way to the [[Pewter Gym]]. When he arrives, the Gym is dark, though he soon meets the Gym Leader, Brock, and challenges him to a battle. Brock queries Ash, and he replies that he has been travelling with Pikachu for two weeks. With a snap of his fingers, Brock transforms the Gym into a rocky field and turns on the lights. In the Pewter Gym, battles are two against two. Ash begins the match with Pikachu while Brock starts off with {{TP|Brock|Onix}}. Pikachu is intimidated by the giant Pokémon and doesn't want to battle, but Ash responds by telling Pikachu that this is his battle. Pikachu's {{m|Thunder Shock}} is woefully ineffective against Onix's {{m|Bind}}, which begins to crush Pikachu, inflicting visible pain. This prompts Ash to recall Pikachu to its [[Poké Ball]], though the attempt is thwarted by the larger Pokémon's bulk. Ash cannot bear to watch Pikachu's suffering and he forfeits the match.
