{{ | The scene pans over [[Lake Acuity]] and goes underwater, where the projected soul of {{p|Uxie}} resides. Back at the [[Pokémon Center]], all of {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}} try to endure their injuries as [[Nurse Joy]], {{TP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}} and {{p|Blissey}} work overtime to heal Ash's Pokémon following the [[DP131|overwhelming]] [[DP132|loss]] to [[Paul]]. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} watch as Ash's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are tended to. {{an|Dawn}} and [[Brock]] try to stay positive, but Ash walks away depresed. Dawn, having dealt with [[DP061|low self-confidence]] once, tries to help, but Brock stops her, letting him go for now. | ||
Outside, [[Team Rocket]], still [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] as the cleanup crew, work to fix the battlefield. {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}} drops dirt as {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}, {{TP|James|Carnivine}} and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} flatten the field. They discuss the [[full battle]], admiring the effort and [[Ash's Monferno|Chimchar's]] [[evolution]] while still slamming Ash for the landslide loss. [[James]] believes Ash is most likely depressed, so [[Jessie]] plots to steal {{AP|Pikachu}} while Ash is too sad to care. | |||
Ash sprawls out on a grass field, looking up at the sky as he reflects on the {{pkmn|battle}}. Battle scenes flash through his mind as he remembers {{AP|Gliscor}} battling {{TP|Paul|Torterra}} and getting its tail {{m|Crunch|caught}}, {{DL|Paul|Weavile}} attacking {{AP|Staraptor}} and {{AP|Grotle}}'s second loss to {{TP|Paul|Honchkrow}}. Back at the Center, Brock tends to Gliscor, conforting it from crying. Dawn watches and wishes that she could help, also feeling the depression. {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} notices and gets an idea. Piplup makes faces, and tries to be funny, which gives Dawn the idea to create a show to cheer Ash up. As she runs off to plan, Brock continues to help Nurse Joy, {{TP|Brock|Happiny}} giving Brock a first-aid kit. When Nurse Joy compliments Brock, he goes crazy as usual, but {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}'s {{m|Poison Jab|impending strike}} causes him to halt his romance and plead with Croagunk. It works and Croagunk walks away. Nurse Joy notices that Monferno is recovering slower than the others. She asks Brock to go into the forest and find [[Cheri Berry|Cheri Berries]]. | |||
As Brock searches for the berries, he has trouble finding them. He reaches Lake Acuity and takes in the scenery. He notices a ripple on the lake and spots a shadow of a Pokémon, Uxie's projected soul. Before he can get closer to inspect it, the shadow disappears. Afterwards, he find the Cheri Berries nearby and salvages them. While Dawn continues to practice back at the Center, Nurse Joy proceeds to feed Monferno the mashed Cheri Berries. Ash's other Pokémon watch as Monferno reacts to the berries, quickly perking up. Meanwhile, Ash still sulks over his most recent loss to Paul, remembering how {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}} took out half of his [[Party|team]], Chimchar evolving and Monferno losing to {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}}. He rolls over and notices Pikachu standing nearby, not the least bit upset. His other Pokémon are there as well, all chirpy and celebrating, but quickly give to their exhaustion. Ash is slightly concerned but he starts to laugh, the depression passing away. Ash gets his fighing spirit back and plans to step up his {{pkmn|training}} after noticing Paul's strength. He inspires his Pokémon, all rushing to give him a group hug, knocking him to the ground. As they head back, Ash's stomach rumble, generating another set of laughs as they continue to head back. Team Rocket watches nearby and still believe that Ash is depressed. | |||
when he returns to the Center, everyone has gathered about Brock's sighting. Nurse Joy digs through a book and shows Brock a drawing of Uxie, which is the one that he saw. He remarks that it looked like a shadow instead of a physical form. Dawn and Ash remember [[DP001|their]] [[DP078|sightings]] of {{p|Mesprit}} and {{p|Azelf}}. Joy mentions that all three Pokémon originated from [[Lake guardians|the same egg]]. Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf are beings that symbolize specific traits the correspond to Ash, Dawn and Brock. The three Pokémon are said to balance [[Sinnoh]], and Brock wonders if their sightings are more than coincidence. | |||
While Team Rocket builds an electric-proof net to capture Pikachu, Ash and the others gather to watch Dawn's show, Nurse Joy mentioning that Dawn prepared it mainly to cheer up Ash and his Pokémon. Dawn opens the show with {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}, {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} and {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}. Buneary and Pachirisu jump onto Mamoswine and make faces, bouncing on and around Mamoswine before stretching Mamoswine's face, with Mamoswine posing and sticking its tongue out. Ash and the others laugh as expected. Piplup waltzs out in a clown outfit, jumping up and hitting its head on the ceiling. Buneary and Pachirisu juggle Piplup and stretch its face, with one more Mamoswine pose thrown in. | |||
Team Rocket intrudes on the show. Still thinking Ash is upset, Team Rocket proceeds to indirectly insult Ash and rub in his loss. It doesn't have any effect, so {{MTR}} launches a net to catch Pikachu. Team Rocket removes their disguises and recites [[Team Rocket mottos|their motto]] before proceeding to flee. Ash and his friends pursue as Jessie has her Seviper launch {{m|Haze}}, but {{AP|Buizel}}'s {{m|Water Pulse}} negates it. Pikachu launches a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but the net absorbs it. Gliscor stops them with {{m|Sand-Attack}}, but Yanmega knocks it back with a {{m|SonicBoom}}. James has Carnivine launch a {{m|Bullet Seed}}, but Staraptor's {{m|Aerial Ace}} and Grotle's {{m|Energy Ball}} [[Unable to battle|knocks out]] Yanmega and Carnivine. Monferno uses {{m|Mach Punch}} to knock Team Rocket away and free Pikachu from the net. Pikachu rejoins Ash and the others as Team Rocket notices their plan backfire. James and Meowth blame Jessie since she wanted to strike while Ash was depressed, but Jessie blames them for not offering another plan. They then notice Ash and his Pokémon nearby, battle ready and determined. They know a blast-off is imminent as Ash excitedly orders his Pokémon to execute a group attack. Buizel's {{m|Aqua Jet}}, Staraptor's Aerial Ace, Grotle's Energy Ball, Gliscor's {{m|X-Scissor}}, Monferno's {{m|Flamethrower}} and Pikachu's {{m|Quick Attack}} sends Team Rocket packing. Ash and his Pokémon celebrate as everyone else notices Ash back on track. Dawn decides to plan for next {{pkmn|Contest}} as Nurse Joy mentions that the [[Lilypad Town]] Contest is a short time away. Back at the Center, Joy gives them directions and offers them a meal before they plan to set off. | |||
