{{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{an|May}}, {{an|Brock}}, and [[Max]] stand outside of [[Palace Maven Spenser]]'s battle grounds, the | {{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{an|May}}, {{an|Brock}}, and [[Max]] stand outside of [[Palace Maven Spenser]]'s battle grounds, the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Palace}}. Spenser and [[Scott]] approach Ash and {{ashfr}} asking him whether he is ready, which Ash confirms. Scott and Spenser begin to explain about the Battle Palace and the battle field to Ash and how it is different from other battle fields. Scott begins to explain the rules about the battle: it shall be three-on-three and only the challenger can substitute a {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. Later, the group rides inside a [[Poké Ball]]-shaped hot-air balloon. Scott goes on to say that the {{pkmn|battle}} will commence within the jungle, and it is revealed that the whole side of the island is covered in trees, with only a couple of mountains and the sea nearby. | ||
Ash and Spenser are standing atop a battlefield on a mountain. Brock declares how Ash should be careful in his decision when choosing his Pokémon as the jungle can have a major effect on battle strategies. As Brock says they will have difficulty judging the battle, Scott calls up a floating Poké Ball-shaped referee. On the front, there is a camera from which the four in the balloon can watch the battle. The referee floats down to the battlefield, where Spenser and Ash are eager to get started. Ash's friends in the balloon see him on the TV screen standing ready. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} are sitting in a tree, spying on Ash and Spenser with binoculars. They declare how they are going to steal Pikachu and give him to the boss. | Ash and Spenser are standing atop a battlefield on a mountain.

This idea is reinforced as Meowth utters the line "No one does it better", which is the title of a James Bond theme song. | * The episode's English title could be making a reference to the James Bond film ''{{wp|A View To A Kill}}''.
