Once there, Misty is surprised to see the likes of {{p|Golem}}, {{p|Ninetales}} and {{p|Rhydon}} dancing to modern music. Rudy explains that it's not enough to just teach Pokémon a lot of attacks and that they should learn new and different skills because it helps them grow. Then, Rudy asks Misty to dance and she agrees. | Once there, Misty is surprised to see the likes of {{p|Golem}}, {{p|Ninetales}} and {{p|Rhydon}} dancing to modern music.

Just as they are having fun dancing, Rudy asks that Misty stay on Trovita Island with them. They stop dancing and Misty looks confused. He asks her to think it over and give him the answer after the match. | Just as they are having fun dancing, Rudy asks that Misty stay on Trovita Island with them.

( | The next morning, at a platform stadium surrounded by water and the spikes. Spectators including Tracey and Misty look on from a hot air balloon hovering over the platform, as the commentator introduces the competitors from atop a giant Pidgeot and explains that they will be using electric Pokémon first. The match begins with Ash choosing Pikachu and Rudy starting with Electabuzz. Pikachu uses a powerful Thunderbolt, but it is just absorbed by Electabuzz who then charges at Pikachu. Pikachu tries to dodge with a Quick Attack that causes a head on collision. Pikachu is sent flying to the ground due to a sheer size difference and is finished with a Thunder Punch. The first victory goes to Rudy. | ||
Grass type Pokémon are next up to battle. Bulbasaur is Ash's choice Pokémon and Rudy counters with Exeggutor. He then asks for music. As Exeggutor dances around Bulbasaur's Razor Leaf Ash begins to worry, as this match is two out of three. The coconut headed Pokémon unleashes an Egg Bomb knocking Bulbasaur to the ground. Exeggutor towers over the lowly seed Pokémon who begins to sweat. Ash tells Bulbasaur to use Sleep Powder, which puts Exeggutor to sleep and tumbling down the side of the cliff. It falls towards Team Rocket who is clambering back up the cliff. They look up to see the green tufted Pokémon hurtling toward them and are bowled back down to the sea below. Bulbasaur saves the snoozing Exeggutor with its Vine Whip, but the Rockets continue to fall. The second victory goes to Ash. | |||
During all of this, Mahri asks Misty what Rudy said to her last night. Misty just uneasily says that it was nothing important, but she's thinking about that chance of a lifetime Rudy offered her. | |||
It comes down to water types to battle it out for the badge. Rudy dedicates his next match to "The girl who stole my heart" (Misty) and sends Starmie to face Ash's Squirtle. They exchange Water Guns and Rudy becomes impatient. He orders for musical accompaniment and Starmie begins to spin on the spot. Rudy sweeps his hand through his hair and commands Starmie to spin into a Thunderbolt! To everyone's amazement, the water Pokémon unleashes an electrified Thunderbolt attack hitting Squirtle. Ash yells out, not believing his eyes. Misty, whose mind had been ticking over what Rudy had said about staying, finally makes her decision. She shouts from the balloon that she wants Ash to win and that he's the only one able to bring out Squirtle's real power. A shocked Rudy realizes that Misty really wants Ash (although Ash doesn't) and loses all the style that he started with. Squirtle breaks from the Thunderbolt with a Water Gun, which catapults the tiny turtle off of the side of the platform towards the spikes. All looks lost as Squirtle Withdraws into its shell. More surprises come however when it releases immense jets of water from each of the holes in its shell. The power from this blast cannon it back up the cliff face. Misty explains that the battle has caused Squirtle to learn HYDRO PUMP the most powerful water attack. Lunging at Starmie, Squirtle's newly learned Hydro Pump connects causing the star shaped Pokémon to skid across the ground. A well-aimed Skull Bash sinks Starmie into submission. Rudy is beaten and Ash earns another badge and raising Squirtle in the air he cheers his team on. | |||
Back at the beach, Rudy hands out two things: the Spike Shell Badge for Ash, and a final bunch of flowers for Misty. Rudy then tells Ash that he's a lucky guy for being the idol of Misty's affections, but Ash still doesn't get it. As the heroes sail off on Lapras into the sunset, they look back at the island where Ash won his third Orange League Badge, and Misty won a young man's heart. | |||
