Ash, Brock, and Misty headed on their way to Ecruteak City and once they arrived, Koga arrived and challenged Ash to a battle. Ash sent in Pikachu and Noctowl while Koga sent in Venomoth and Crobat. Venomoth used Sleep Powder, which Noctowl blew away with Whirlwind. Crobat used Wing Attack, which Pikachu dodged and used Thunderbolt. (Meanwhile with Team Rocket) Team Rocket were watching the battle go on. Well it looks as if the same ninja man with the Venomoth is back. alisema Jessie Indeed he is. alisema James Should we go down there after the battle's over and steal the Pokemon? asked Meowth No. For once, i've decided we're going to do the smart thing and wait until nightfall to strike. alisema Jessie. (Back with Ash and Koga) Having had avoided Venomoth's Sleep Powder, Noctowl took out Venomoth with Air Slash and Pikachu defeated Crobat with another Thunderbolt. Your battling skills were better this time. wewe managed to beat my Venomoth and Crobat in battle this time. alisema Koga, returning them to their Pokeballs.

Focus and find the real one! alisema Ash Totodile used Water Gun on the fake Flareons and hit the real one with Water Gun, earning Ash a win
(Nightfall) Koga had sent out his Venomoth in case anything went wrong in the dojo. Suddenly, Venomoth sensed something was up and Koga, Ash, Brock, and Misty discovered that Team Rocket had stolen the Pokemon of the dojo trainers. Koga pursued the balloon, with Misty, Brock, and Ash following close behind him. He threw some ninja stars at the balloon, making it lose air. Hey! What's the big idea!? yelled Meowth It was too late however and the balloon went down and the line holding the net in place snapped. Team Rocket crawled out from the remains of their deflated balloon and Jessie sent in Arbok to battle. Venomoth! Get ready for battle! alisema Koga Use your Sleep Powder! alisema Koga Arbok! Dodge it and use wrap, upangaji pamoja attack on Venomoth! alisema Jessie Arbok dodged and used wrap, upangaji pamoja on the light purple nondo Pokemon. Even when Venomoth was being being squeezed kwa Arbok, Koga managed to stay calm.Before things were starting to look bad for Venomoth, Venomoth got free from Arbok's coils. Arbok! Use your Poison Sting on Venomoth! alisema Jessie Venomoth! Use your Sleep Powder! alisema Koga Before Arbok could use Poison Sting, Venomoth stopped it with Sleep Powder. Come on Arbok! Don't let that nondo beat you! alisema Jessie Arbok continued to snooze Come on! Can't wewe at least use your Tackle attack? How about Bite attack? Please just use any thing! I don't care which attack wewe use, but just use something! alisema Jessie, frustrated Arbok continued to ignore her as it snoozed.
