{{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{an|Misty}}, and {{an|Brock}} watch {{Gary}}'s fourth round match on the Rock Field, and are shocked when Gary is abruptly defeated by a {{pkmn|Trainer}} named [[Melissa]]. This leaves Ash worried about his own chances during the fourth round, though Brock and Misty cheer him on. He later learns from {{an|Professor Oak}} that all of [[Pallet Town]] is cheering him on, which only makes him more nervous. Meanwhile, {{TRT}} opens up a souvenir stand with the intent of luring in and stealing {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} from Trainers.

At the Grass Field, Ash starts his next match with [[Jeanette Fisher]] from [[Crimson City]]. He sends out {{AP|Bulbasaur}}, and Jeanette uses {{p|Beedrill}}. The {{type|Bug}} Pokémon is about to hit Bulbasaur with {{m|Poison Sting}}, but Bulbasaur dodges it. Bulbasaur uses {{m|Razor Leaf}}, but Beedrill counters with {{m|Twineedle}}. Bulbasaur dodges the attack again. Ash then has Bulbasaur use {{m|Leech Seed}}, which instantly drains Beedrill's energy, before having Bulbasaur finish it off with {{m|Tackle}}. Jeanette then sends out her next Pokémon, {{p|Scyther}}. Bulbasaur launches a {{m|Razor Leaf}} at it, but Scyther uses {{m|Double Team}} to evade. Scyther gets in a few hits before Ash gets the idea to use {{m|Vine Whip}} on all the duplicates, so Bulbasaur will eventually hit the real one. The plan works, and Scyther is knocked out.

Unwavering, Jeanette calls on her last Pokémon, a {{p|Bellsprout}}. Ash laughs and calls it weak as the Flower Pokémon wiggles its body in an odd manner. Bulbasaur uses Tackle, but Bellsprout evades the attack with ease. It then picks up Bulbasaur, repeatedly {{m|slam}}s him into the ground, and knocks Bulbasaur out, shocking Ash. Brock realizes that Jeanette's Bellsprout must be exceptionally trained, or else it would not be used in a League battle. Ash sends out {{AP|Pikachu}}, and he uses {{m|Thunder Shock}}, but Bellsprout dodges the attack and uses Razor Leaf. Pikachu dodges it and tries to use {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but Bellsprout's roots keep him ingrained and immune to {{t|Electric}} attacks. Pikachu tries to punch and box-kick Bellsprout, but it slams him again and defeats him.

Down to his last Pokémon, Ash pauses for a second and then sends out his {{AP|Muk}}, surprising his friends. Muk is able to absorb Bellsprout's Slam and Razor Leaf attacks with ease, then uses a {{m|Body Slam}}. Its powerful stench and weight smothers Bellsprout, and it soon faints. Ash wins the battle, and has now cleared all four preliminary fields to advance through to the next round of competition.
