After tying in the contest, May decides that she will head to Johto alone. After she and Max head back to Hoenn on a ship, Ash and Brock must depart as well. On the way back to Pallet, Ash runs into Gary and his Electivire, a new Pokémon. Gary refuses to battle and leaves. Ash finally arrives home and is greeted by the usual homecoming party. Finally Gary decides to battle with Ash. After losing to Gary, Ash leaves all his Pokémon except Pikachu and Aipom (who sneaks along) at Oak’s Lab and heads to the Sinnoh region.

Ash and friends arrive in Terracotta Town, the town where May and Max will board a ship back home to Hoenn, and where Brock will leave for Pewter City. There is a festival going on and a Pokémon Contest is being held. May and shockingly Ash decide to enter it. May and Ash win first and second place and will now face each other in the final round. During the contest break, May’s Combusken evolves into Blaziken! After sending Team Rocket flying, Ash and May face off in the final round using Sceptile and Blaziken.

Ash continues his battle against Brandon. With faith in his Bulbasaur, Ash manages to finally beat Dusclops. Then, Squirtle faces off against the speedy Ninjask and manages to pull off a narrow win. Squirtle isn’t so lucky when he faces down Solrock. Solrock defeats Squirtle and the Bulbasaur and Solrock knock each other out. Then, it comes down to the final battle: Pikachu vs. Regice. Will Ash win and become the Battle Frontier champion?

Ash trades in some of his old Pokémon and brings Bulbasaur, Charizard, and Squirtle back. They head up into the mountains for a little training and reminiscing of the past. After stopping yet another Pikachu stealing attempt from Team Rocket, Ash runs into Brandon who is impressed by the four Pokémon. Brandon declares a 4-on-4 battle this time so he can see the true strength of the four. Ash agrees and the next day the battle begins. Brandon chooses Dusclops and Ash chooses Charizard. Will he finally be able to win?

Ash finally begins his training for his rematch. Meanwhile, Nurse Joy comes down with the flu. In the woods, Team Rocket finally makes it back to Fennel Valley after being attacked by Harley’s Cacturne. When trying to chose a path at a fork in the road, they cause a Gloom to use stun spore on an Electrode, which rolls down the hill and explodes on the front of bus carrying pokémon. With Nurse Joy sick, Brock and Professor Oak must take care of all these pokémon while Ash helps Matt get his Bagon back after it runs off. Team Rocket, in the meantime, decides to steal all the pokémon.

After losing to Brandon again, Ash begins to lose hope and feel blue. Meanwhile, May is still thinking about her defeat against Solidad at the Grand Festival. Even the return of Beautifly and Skitty doesn’t seem to help. Then Professor Oak shows up with some gifts for Ash. Inside is a poster with Ash’s Pokémon’s hands and feet on it and the word fight across it, a lunch from his mom, a lure from Misty, and a postcard from Gary who is in the Sinnoh Region. The party gets bigger when Drew and Harley show up. Drew challenges May to a match, in which he will use his new Butterfree. Will this battle be able to snap May back into reality?
