The next [[Pokémon Contest]] is rapidly approaching, and {{an|May}} is {{pkmn|training}} hard for it. She declares that she cannot wait to battle [[Drew]], and runs off to train with {{TP|May|Beautifly}}, leaving her {{TP|May|Torchic}} with the others. Torchic feels left out and upset as it watches its Trainer running off. {{Ash}}, {{an|Brock}}, [[Max]] and all their {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are eating when Max pipes up suddenly. He is annoyed that May keeps leaving Torchic alone; it seems like she does not care about Torchic anymore, only Beautifly. Ash reassures him that Torchic will always be special to May as it was her first Pokémon. Max wants to know what Brock's first Pokémon was and Brock remembers back to his tenth birthday when he woke up and found an {{TP|Brock|Onix}} leaning into his room with a red ribbon around its neck. He and his father {{ka|Flint}} sat on Onix's head and watched the sunrise. Max imagines the Pokémon he will have when he becomes a [[Pokémon Trainer]], thinking that [[Norman|his father]] could give him anything, even a {{p|Slakoth}}. In the imagination bubble, Slakoth falls on top of Max and squashes him.

[[Nurse Joy]] walks past on her way to do her rounds of the Pokémon, and Brock grabs her and insists on coming with her. She shrugs off Brock's advances and instead focuses on {{TP|Brock|Mudkip}}, Torchic and {{TP|Ash|Treecko}} as they eat, and is surprised at their great condition. She informs the boys that there is a new Trainer coming to the Pokémon Center to choose a [[Starter Pokémon]]. Ash and the others follow Joy to another room, where Max is allowed to release the Pokémon from their {{i|Poké Ball}}s. The {{p|Torchic}} is in a fighting mood; the {{p|Mudkip}} bursts into tears and is comforted by Brock's Mudkip, while the {{p|Treecko}} clasps its hands together and simpers (apparently a female, due to its interest in Ash's Treecko and the way it holds a flower in its mouth as compared to Ash's Treecko holding a twig). Max gets very excited when saying "Treecko, I choose you!" because it is something he always wanted to say. A video call from a rather panicked May comes in. She explains that there is a {{p|Wailord}} beached where she is training, so Nurse Joy runs off to help it, telling the kids to look after the three starters. She instructs them not to let them go outside because they are not used to the outdoors yet. Brock follows her. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} are standing outside the window and hear about the Wailord, deciding they want to catch it. The trio proudly declare that a big Pokémon means a big promotion.

The Pokémon Center's Torchic runs off towards the outside. Ash calls on May's Torchic for help, but it gets overwhelmed by the other Torchic’s pecks. Mudkip is simply kicked aside, while {{AP|Pikachu}}'s sparking cheeks temporarily stop it, only to fall for a fake waterworks routine. Treecko steps up and manages to send Torchic retreating into Max's arms. However, it soon pecks at him to make its break for freedom. Ash sends out his {{AP|Corphish}}, but Torchic attacks it with a flurry of scratches before bouncing off into the great outdoors. Ash and Max give chase, and soon Corphish tries to battle the runaway Torchic. Accidentally, the Torchic [[Evolution|evolves]] into a {{p|Combusken}}. Ash and Max are sent into a panic. They quickly decide that the only thing to do is to substitute May's Torchic for the evolved one, and try to stop the Trainer from choosing it. After they fantasize Combusken being given to a girl, scaring her, they plan to tell May that her Torchic evolved, but as they imagine what May would do if she caught them, they decide that just have to keep her away.
