Brief Episode Summary

Team Rocket Screenshot

101. Git Along Little Pokémon!! Whilst trekking across the outback, Ash comes across an electricity merchant, who farms Magnemite, using his Jolteon as the sheepdog. These he sells to the remote towns nearby, which do not have a mains supply. Team Rocket try to steal the magnetite, using a giant magnet, which goes quite well. Pikachu and the Jolteon use Thunder Wave and manage to counteract the magnet but tire themselves out totally. The rancher gets injured in the assault. Suddenly a Nurse Joy calls and requests immediate help, since they have almost run out of power and their Pokémon center is holding sick Pokémon. Ash volunteers to do the ride with the farmers Tauros, and he gets there just in time. The rancher then gives them all a lift to the town they're looking for in gratitude.

102. Mystery Menace Ash et al arrive at a town which is about to have an election. The Mayor currently in office is desperate to hide a secret about the city's sewer system - which holds some sort of monster. Whilst in the sewers, Bulbasaur is abducted by something with long green Tentacles, (Not in the Urotsukidoji sense though, thank god), and Ash tries to get the mayor to help save it. The Mayor has other ideas though - and in an effort to repress the secret forever, he blocks up the sewers and sends a SWAT team down there to finish off the monster. Misty, trapped in the sewers with the others and Team Rocket, is also abducted by the tentacled monster... and Ash follows to discover that it's nothing but a slightly enlarged Bulbasaur. It turns out this Bulbasaur has a tag similar to the Mayor's logo - they put two and two together and realise it was abandoned by the mayor when it was little.

103. Misty Meets her Match!! Ash arrives at Trovita Island, and find a girl drowning by the pier. Misty saves her, and it turns out she is the sister of the Gym Leader there - Jiggy - who falls madly in love with Misty. Ash challenges him to a gym match, which Jiggy says he'll accept if Ash can shoot down an obstacle course with his Pokémon. Team Rocket appear during this, behind a target, and manage to get themselves blasted off again for their trouble. After, Jiggy shows them around, and also shows them his special way of raising Pokémon - through dance!! He asks Misty to spend the night, and then asks her to live with him forever, and to tell him her answer after tomorrow's battle with Ash. The battle is tough, with Jiggy's Starmie using Thundershock via a dance on Ash's Squirtle. Squirtle Withdraws, and learns a new technique - Hydro Pump - which it unleashes against the Starmie. Ash is victorious, and wins a third badge, and Misty turns down Jiggy's generous offer.

104. Bound For Trouble Team Rocket come up with a new plan to capture Pikachu, by tricking Ash and co into falling into a pit, and handcuffing Pikachu to Meowth. They bait the road with a basket of fruit, but Misty figures it would be a trap, and Ash gets an apple from a nearby tree.... and falls into the pit underneath it. (Pretty clever trap for TR!!) They have electro-resistant gloves on, and manage to link Pikachu and Meowth, and begin to leave, but unfortunately, things go a bit wrong when a Pidgeot grabs the manacles from TR. It lifts the two Pokémon up, up, and away into the air, but they escape when Pikachu Thunderbolts it. Tracey uses Marril to find TR, and TR tells them that Pikachu and Meowth were stolen by the Pidgeot. Meowth and Pikachu are having a discussion, when a Rhydon appears. They escape, but only just. Ash and the others are at the Pidgeot nest, but no Pikachu. Pikachu finds an apple for them to eat, and splits it with Meowth grudgingly. Meowth tells Pikachu the two of them would have been friends under different circumstances, and asks it to join TR, but Pikachu is asleep and doesn't answer. Meowth sighs, and goes to sleep himself. The next day, Team Rocket, Ash et al find Meowth and Pikachu, and the Pidgeot, which TR defeats (!!). The two Pokémon are then separated, and TR are blasted off again.

105. Charizard Chills Ash faces off against a trainer called Tad, with a very powerful Poliwrath. Pikachu is very easily defeated, and so is Charizard, with an Ice Beam attack. Tad leaves Charizard frozen and tells Ash to train it better, and when he has, he'll give him a rematch. During the night, Ash attempts to thaw out his Charizard, who remembers all their time together as a Charmander. Charizard manages to just pull through, and when he awakes, he finally submits to Ash, and agrees to obey. TR try to steal Pikachu again, but it is saved by Charizard. They find Tad again, and this time Charizard takes the Poliwrath out, finishing it with an Aerial Submission.

106. Pokémon Water War Squirtle becomes jealous when Ash finds a group of Wartortle who are trained by a police officer to help put out fires, and wants to spend some time training with them. It pits itself against them all, and doesn't do too badly in a race and a shooting gallery style escapade with Watergun, but TR steal it along with all the Wartortle. Tracey uses Venonat to find them all, and the Wartortle charge up a huge Water Gun to use against TR. But then disaster!! A child is trapped in a burning building, and it is up to the head of the Wartortle and Squirtle to attempt a rescue. Can they pull it off??US Air Date - August 26th. UK Air Date - ??? [pending]
107. Pokémon Food Fight When Ash faces a grass Pokémon trainer, he accidentally brings out Snorlax instead of Charizard, and damages the Pokéball in the process. Snorlax can't be returned, and to make matters worse, goes to sleep. Ash tries to coerce it to the nearest Pokémon center to get a new Pokéball, but it refuses. (Ash even dressed up as an apple - what willpower this Snorlax has... o_O;;;) So Ash goes on ahead, and TR show up to steal Pikachu. Things are looking typically grim... until Snorlax appears, and demonstrating his latest attack upon OUR hapless heroes, TR are hyperbeamed off once again. US Air Date - August 19th. UK Air Date - ???

108. Pokémon Double Trouble!! Ahh!! An amazing Team Rocket plot episode!! Having arrived on Ryuchin island, Ash is hugged by the gym leader there, Ruriko, who mistakes him for her son. (Wonderful parenting I must say). Anyway, having cleared up who did spawn Ash, Ruriko decides to chat to them a little while. Suddenly, Team Rocket appears in a huge Mecha Rhydon. It's powered by Arbok and Lickitung on a treadmill, and fires attacks from its mouth courtesy of Weezing. All would be won for our supreme duo, had James remembered to give his Pokémon the Hyperbeam TM, but as he forgot, Jesse's command to attack produces only a smogging. Ruriko sends out her Alakazam, who, along with Ash's Charizard and a misfired acid attack from Arbok, defeats Team Rocket. GRR. But oh well, at least it was an impressive showing. Oh, and uhm, yeah gym battle - Ash vs. Ruriko in a tag team style affair with Charizard and Pikachu against her Alakazam and Marrowak. Poor co-ordination to start, (in fact Pikachu thunderbolts Charizard intentionally whilst he's being bone clubbed and psyshocked by the others - love that teamwork) but once they get it together towards the end, Ash gets the Ocean badge. Yawn, I know I'll have trouble sleeping tonight from _that_ startling orginality. US Air Date - September 9th. UK Air Date - ???

117. "Wakaba Town, The Tale of the Windy City" The twerps and Team Rocket are all lost in a misty forest between Pallet Town and Wakaba Town. Togepi decides in its infinite wisdom to go walkabouts, and a search ensues for it, resolving in a run in with the dark wolf that appears in the opening credits. It runs off, taking the mist along with it. As the mist goes, Team Rocket find themselves on the towns border. Overjoyed, they run off to look for food, arriving at Prof. Utsugi's place. He's apparently braindead, confusing Jesse AND James for one Nurse Joy. They steal the Totodile that was meant for her. Later, once Ash and co arrives, they find a Nurse Joy beating up Prof. Utsugi, and after some explanations from Officer Jenny, Brock organises a search party for her, and they set off to find it. The Totodile (somewhat infatuated with Jesse's hair) is being squabbled over, as TR argue over who gets to tell the boss about the capture. The delay allows the twerps to find them, and Ash tells all his Pokémon to attack at once. Jenny tells him if he doesn't stop doing that to them, she'll never be able to arrest them, so Brock kindly volunteers to be arrested instead. End result is that Ash gets an upgraded Pokédex, Johto league admission, and directions to Kikyou Gym.

118. "Rookie's Chikorita" Ash and co are on their way to Kikyou Gym, and run accross a lass named Nanako, a new Pokémon trainer, who has a Chikorita which she just got from Professor Utsugi. They talk, and it turns out she only wants to capture an Electabuzz to be the mascot for her baseball team. Ash laughs at her, and somewhat infuriated, she challenges him to a match. Ash, class A jerk that he is, sends out Charizard against her brand new LvL 5 Chikorita, with the aim of completely humiliating her. Obviously she loses, and runs off crying. Team Rocket gives her a pep talk, and convinces her to get a rematch with Ash, which takes place at the baseball stadium. Ash uses Pikachu this time, and to his surprise, Chikorita deflects all the electric attacks, and subdues it with Sweet Nectar. While Pikachu is high as a kite, Chikorita tackles, and things look good for all concerned. (except Ash but hah). Suddenly Team Rocket send out drones to capture the two Pokémon, but Nanako clocks them with baseballs. Chikorita and Pikachu then team up to defeat them, and they leave hoping one day to battle again...

119. "Battle!! Heracross vs. Pinsir" Walking through (surprise surprise) a forest, the twerps come across a swarm of Heracross and Butterfree feeding peacefully on tree sap. Ash wants to capture a Heracross, but he is told not to by a warden. All of a sudden, a rush of Pinsirs charge the Butterfree and Heracross away, but leaving one trapped in the tree. Bulbasaur is sent to get it down, which it does, and then the Heracross proceeds to try and get a meal out of Bulbasaur's bulb in return. The warden with Ash et al, heads across to the other side of the gully, where the Pinsir normally eat their tree sap. The bridge across the gully is down, which poses no problem for the Pinsir, but does for the humans. The saved Heracross reappears, and following a slight tussle with the paranoid Bulbasaur, knocks a tree over for them. They cross, and in the heartland of Pinsir territory, they discover a giant metal one - Team Rocket!! They're lost, starving, and in a forest as per usual, and were trying to make savoury pancakes from the tree sap. Ash demands they surrender the tree sap ( o_O;; ) and Team Rocket comply, attacking with the robot. Pikachu ripostes, but the electricty is absorbed and fired back. Just as all looks good, Heracross returns, and beats off the giant Pinsir. The other Pinsir return, and all is well again. Walking off, the Heracross refuses to give up its Ash fixation, and demands to go with them.

120. "Donphan Valley" Having found a baby Donphan, Ash and Brock argue over who gets to capture it. Brock tells Ash that as Ash just caught one, he should get this one. Ash disagrees, but then a girl named Hiragi appears, tells them that no ones capturing it, and Brock agrees post haste. She's the Pokémons keeper, along with many others in the valley. Meanwhile, Team Rocket are searching for agates, and Meowth informs them that a Donphan is the best bet - they have excellent senses of smell. They too come across the baby, and James coerces it to help them with food and disturbing baby talk. It leads them around the valley, and then around once more, continuing this pattern for some time. Hiragi is getting more than a little irked that the baby Donphans not around, and, blowing her whistle to try and get it to come, summons all the others instead. Making do, she tells all the other Donphan to go find the baby, which they do. Ash uses all his Pokémon _again_ to beat up the defenceless TR, and Hiragi asks them if there is anything she can do to repay them. Ash suggests a match, (Brock had other ideas), and uses Heracross. It gets its butt whipped into a tree, but was more than happy there eating the tree sap. Uh huh, whatever. Finally, everyone leaves, with another filler episode dealt with, and presumably TR clamouring for their agent about the unfair treatment they've been getting lately...
