Episodes 21- 40

---

Episodes- (1-20) (21- 40) (41-52)

Ash and his friends arrive in Saffron City, where they see a strange girl who almost causes Ash an accident. As they go through the city gates, two girls in Hawaiian dress show up and trick them into going in a room through a warp tile from which they can't escape; it turns out the two girls are Jessie and James, and before they can get away with the captured Pikachu the mysterious girl shows up, paralyses them and teleports Ash and his friends and Pikachu to safety.Outside the Saffron City gym, a man warns Ash not to challenge Sabrina, the Gym Leader, but Ash doesn't listen and challenges her. The little girl that freed them is actually a doll that Sabrina owns, and with her Abra (who she evolves into Kadabra during the battle), she defeats Pikachu and traps Ash and his friends in a doll house using her telekinetic powers. They escape thanks to the man who warned them earlier, and after a brief telekinetic struggle, he tell Ash that the only chance he has to defeat Sabrina is to get a Ghost Pokemon from Lavender Town. So, Ash and his friends leave for Lavender Town...

22-The Tower of Terror

Ash and his friends arrive at Pokemon Tower in Lavender Town, an eerie and foreboding place where they hope to catch a
Ghost Pokemon. Misty, Brock, and Pikachu are reluctant to go inside, but Ash convinces them to go in. Once inside, they are
soon assaulted by Gengar, Haunter and Gastly, three Ghost Pokemon who always cause trouble to the tower's visitors. Misty
and Brock leave the tower, but Ash and Pikachu keep trying to capture them.
As Ash and Pikachu discover, the three Ghosts are simply lonely Pokemon who want someone to play with. When Ash and
Pikachu are struck by a falling chandelier, the three Ghosts take their spirits on a flight around the town. Eventually, Ash and
Pikachu return to their bodies, and leave the Tower, deciding not to catch any of the Ghosts after all. As they leave, Haunter
follows them all out of town, wanting to return a favour to Ash for playing with him.

Armed with a new Ghost Pokemon called Haunter, Ash returns to Saffron City for a rematch with Sabrina. When he goes in to fight Sabrina, however, Haunter has disappeared! Ash and the others run away, but Misty and Brock are transformed into dolls by Sabrina's power. Ash is again rescued by the man who saved them earlier, and he reveals himself to be Sabrina's father (although Ash is too dense to get it).

After having a little fun with Team Rocket, Haunter rejoins Ash, but he seems unwilling to fight Sabrina. Ash convinces him,
however, and they go back to Sabrina's gym one last time. Haunter disappears again, and Ash surrenders, prepared to be
turned into a doll. Pikachu defends Ash and fights valiantly against Kadabra. Haunter appears as the battle wears on, and by
teasing Sabrina, he breaks her emotionless state and causes her to laugh. Because Sabrina's mind is controlling Kadabra, the
Psychic Pokemon can no longer fight, rolling on the floor in laughter. Sabrina's father awards Ash with the Marshbadge, and
they leave town in peace.

24-Primeape Goes Bananas

After a conversation, Ash is depressed to learn that his fellow trainers from Pallet Town are already a badge ahead of him, and
that they have all caught many more Pokemon than he has. When a Mankey appears, attracted by the scent of Brock's lunch,
Ash decides he wants to catch it. When he fails to do so, Mankey is infuriated, and steals Ash's cap; Ash desperately tries to
retrieve it, since it is an official Pokemon League cap, but fails to do so.

Team Rocket shows up again to catch Pikachu. They anger Mankey, who evolves into Primeape, an even more violent
Pokemon. Ash is determined to defeat the angry Pokemon and capture it. He sends Charmander, who uses his Rage attack to
get stronger as Primeape attacks him. Eventually, Primeape is defeated, and Ash captures him, adding to his collection.

25-Pokemon Scent-sation

Arriving in Celadon City, Brock, Misty, and Pikachu stop in a perfume shop. Ash is not impressed and ends up insulting the
local gym leader, Erika, who is also a perfume maker. He is forced to work with Team Rocket in order to sneak into the
Celadon Gym so he can battle for the Rainbowbadge. Jessie and James, meanwhile, are trying to steal the secret perfume
formula of the Celadon Gym and use it to make lots of money.

Ash has his battle with Erika, but during the battle, Team Rocket sets off an explosion which sets the gym on fire. Ash helps
Erika and the others to save the Pokemon in the gym, including Erika's own plant-Pokemon, Gloom. She gifts him with the
Rainbowbadge to thank him for helping to save her friends.

26-Hypno's Naptime

Children are disappearing from the city that Ash and his companions arrive in, and Pokemon are becoming lethargic and
inactive. Tracking the source, the gang discovers Drowzee and Hypno, two psychic Pokemon who can hypnotize people and
Pokemon alike. Misty gets affected by Hypno, and starts to believe she is a Seel. Her friends chase her as she runs into a park,
where they find the other children, who all believe they're different Pokemon. With the help of Drowzee, Ash and Brock
manage to heal all the children and Pokemon. One Pokemon, however, a duck Pokemon named Psyduck, decides to follow
after them and become Misty's Pokemon, much to her disgust...

27-Pokemon Fashion Flash

While travelling through the city, Ash and the others enter the fashion district. Brock drags everyone into a salon owned by
Suzie, a Pokemon breeder like himself. Her Pokemon, Vulpix, is one of the most beautiful Pokemon in the world. Misty,
however, is more interested in a Pokemon makeover for Psyduck, which is available at the new Salon Rocket.

Unbeknownst to them, however, Salon Rocket is operated by Team Rocket, who intend to make lots of money (again). They
kidnap Misty; Psyduck goes for help, and Ash and Brock rush to her rescue. Team Rocket's Pokemon nearly defeat Pikachu
and Geodude, but Suzie intervenes, and with Vulpix's help, she completely blows Team Rocket away. Suzie decides to go on a
journey to learn more about Pokemon breeding, and leaves Vulpix in Brock's capable hands.

28-The Punchy Pokemon

During their travels, Ash and his friends encounter Hitmonchan, a fighting-type Pokemon, who will be entered in a Pokemon
fighting competition called the P-1 Grand Prix. Rebecca, the daughter of Hitmonchan's trainer, wants Ash and the others to
defeat her father so that he'll come home instead of spending all his time training Pokemon. Team Rocket wants to enter the
competition as well, and steal a Hitmonlee, another fighting Pokemon, in order to enter the battle.

The competition is long and difficult, but after Team Rocket defeats Hitmonchan, their Hitmonlee and Primeape, Ash's entry in
the competition, reach the finals. Team Rocket tries to cheat, but Pikachu prevents them, and Primeape wins the battle, winning
the championship. Anthony, Hitmonchan's trainer, offers to train Primeape to be the ultimate champion; Ash accepts, and he
and Primeape say their goodbyes to each other.

29-Spark's Fly for Magnemite

In Gringy City, an industrial burg, Pikachu falls ill and is rushed to the Pokemon Center by Ash and his friends. Nurse Joy
believes he simply has a cold, but suddenly the power goes out. The city power plant has shut down for unknown reasons. Ash
and the others rush to the power plant to find out the reason why. While there, they discover that Magnemite, a mechanical
Pokemon of the electric type, is following Pikachu around as though it were in love.

The cause of the power failure is an abundance of Grimers, sludge-based Pokemon who have clogged up the water intake for
the power plant. Led by a powerful Muk, the Grimers nearly take over the whole plant. However, hordes of Magnetons, led by
the Magnemite and which live in the plant, attack the Grimers and drive them back. Pikachu and Magnemite team up to defeat
the powerful Muk, and Ash captures it, adding to his collection. Power is restored, and Pikachu recovers from his illness; it
seems that he was over-charged, and the extra electricity that was making him sick was used up in the battle.

30-Dig Those Diglett

En route to Fuchsia City, Ash and his friends encounter a construction project in the middle of the forest. A dam is being built
here, but the project is threatened by Digletts, cute mole-like Pokemon who live underground. The tunnels they dig are
disrupting the construction project. Dozens of Pokemon trainers are called in to assist in removing the Digletts, including Gary
and his admirers; whenever the trainers try to call forth their Pokemon, however, they refuse to come out. Eventually, all the
trainers give up and go home. Ash and the others, remaining behind, discover that the Digletts are only trying to save their home
from destruction, as the dam's completion would mean their home would be washed away. The trainer's Pokemon realize this,
and refuse to help harm the Digletts. The project's leader decides to stop the project, but Team Rocket and their
recently-evolved Pokemon, Arbok and Weezing, intervene. With the help of the Digletts, Team Rocket is beaten back again,
and Ash and his friends continue on to Fuchsia City.

31-The Ninja Poke-Showdown

Near Fuchsia City, Ash, Misty, and Brock encounter a strange Japanese castle. Inside, they discover that the castle is actually
the training grounds for a clan of ninja Pokemon trainers, led by Koga, the Fuchsia City gym leader. Team Rocket appears to
try and steal more Pokemon, but Misty's Psyduck ends up saving the day, despite his headache. Ash defeats Koga's
poison-type Pokemon in difficult battle, and they continue onwards to the Safari Zone.

32-The Flame Pokemon-athon

On the way to the Safari Zone, Ash passes through a ranch owned by Lara Larame, a famous Pokemon breeder. She intends
to race her fire Pokemon, Ponyta, in a Pokemon race in a few days, but a rival breeder named Dario has other plans. He hires
Team Rocket to ensure his victory in the race. They end up causing Lara to break her arm, and Ash has to take her place in the
race. The race is long and fierce, with Team Rocket's booby traps catching many of the participants; in the end, however, Ash's
determination to win the race for Lara causes Ponyta to evolve into Rapidash, and he beats Dario by a "nose".

33-The Kangaskhan Kid

In the Safari Zone, Ash and his friends are mistaken for poachers; the real poachers, however, are Team Rocket, and they
almost capture a whole herd of Kangaskhan. The Pokemon are saved by a young boy, Tomo, the Kangaskhan Kid. His
parents appear at the Safari Zone, looking to take him back, after losing his in the park many years ago. The Kangaskhan Kid is
unwilling to leave his new foster Pokemon-parents, however. Eventually, after Team Rocket tries again to capture the
Kangaskhans, the boy's parents decide to stay with him in the Safari Zone, so that everyone will be happy.

The Legend of Dratini-This Episode did not air in America

While still wandering through the Safari Zone, Ash and his friends come upon the Warden's cabin. The Warden is an unfriendly
fellow with a quick trigger finger, but in his younger days, he was famous for having found one of the rarest of Pokemon; Dratini,
the water dragon Pokemon. Despite the Warden's violent temper, Ash and the others get some Safari Balls and a few other
tools with which to legally catch some of the Safari Zone's Pokemon. Of course, the Team Rocket wants a piece of the action;
the Warden drives them away with his fast temper and faster pistols, but not for long...

Ash and Brock roam the plains in search of Pokemon; they get lucky and manage to catch a couple of Tauros, but Ash has little
luck after that, and no matter what he tries to catch, a herd of Tauros intercepts his ball and he catches another one; Meanwhile,
the Team Rocket ambushes the Warden in his cabin; they try to extract the information as to Dratini's whereabouts through
torture... and what torture it is, too. Nyase singing!...(shudder)

Misty tries her hand at fishing, with the same bad luck as her compatriots. The Warden finds them there, still trapped in one of
Meowth's devious torture devices... a tickling machine. Ash frees him, and the Warden tells them that the Team Rocket learned
of where Dratini was hiding; he leads them there himself. Having unsuccessfully tried once already to catch Dratini, the Team
Rocket hatch a plan to knock out the Pokemon in Dratini's lake with explosives, just as the others arrive.

Ash and the Warden dive in to stop the explosion; the Warden can't go far enough, but Ash reaches the bomb, only to run out
of air. He gets rescued, however, by Dragonair, the evolved form of Dratini. The Team Rocket fall victim to their own ploy and
get blown away again... the Warden is reunited with his old friend Dragonair, who evolved from the Dratini he met so long ago.
The Dratini in the lake is Dragonair's child, and everyone is happy that both are safe. Ash and his friends leave the Warden and
the Safari Zone in peace, but not before he sends all of his captured Tauros back to Professor Oak... much to Oak's dismay...

34-The Bridge Bike Gang

After having braved the perils of the Safari Zone, Ash and his friends finally get back to civilization and find that a bridge that
was on Brock's map has been finally completed. However, they soon discover that while cars currently can't go on the bridge,
only pedestrians and bicyclers can zip across it. Ash and his friends go to the Pokemon Center, and they find out that Nurse Joy
needs to have some medicine delivered to Sunny Town, on the other side of the bridge. They borrow bikes from the Pokemon
Center and try to cross the bridge, but they're soon assaulted by gang of hoodlums on bikes who challenge them to a Pokemon
duel.

Meanwhile, Jessie and James manage to float to the city as well, and they recognize the bike gang as the gang they used to
belong in before they joined Team Rocket. They try to prove themselves to the gang by trying to stop Ash and his friends from
crossing the bridge during a storm, but they fail miserably and get smushed by Ash who uses them as a spring board to get
across the bridge as it's splitting up to let a ship through. The bike gang recognizes Ash and his friends as great bike riders and
they escort them to Sunny Town where they manage to deliver the medicine in time to save the sick Pokemon Nurse Joy was
worried about.

35-Ditto's Mysterious Mansion

While travelling, Ash and his friends get caught in a thunderstorm and they find refuge in an old mansion. There they meet
Duplica of House Imite (pronounced "e-me-té"), a Pokemon trainer who owns a Ditto, a Pokemon who can transform into an
exact copy of his opponent. Duplica's Ditto's eyes can't seem to transform right, though, and she's trying hard to train him so he
could. However, Team Rocket shows up and steals Ditto in the hopes of presenting their boss with a copied Dratini* so they
can stay in good standing, and because they force him to transform perfectly, Ditto finally manages to do a perfect
transformation. Duplica, Ash and his friends manage to catch up with Team Rocket and get back Ditto (after doing a total
parody of their speech), and they leave House Imite to continue on their journey.
 

Electric Soldier Porygon (a.k.a. The Seizure Episode)-This Episode did not air in America.

Ash and his friends are traveling when Pikachu complains that he wants to rest. They bring Pikachu to a Pokemon Center,
where they find out that it's having problems because the monster-ball teleporter's out of order, causing them to get mixed-up
along the way. The kids later go to the mansion of professor Akihabara, the one who created the teleporter system, to
investigate the cause of the problems, and they get caught by the professor who forces them to enter an oversized monster-ball
transporter! While they're trapped, he explains that he found out that some "strange people" broke into his mansion, stole the
prototype for a CG-Pokemon, Porygon, went into the computer network and blocked the information highway that carries
monster-balls to their destination. Before they could protest, Akihabara sends a non-prototype version of Porygon to help them,
and transports them into the network.

Ash and the others appear through a worm-hole in the computer system, but unfortunately the hole was several feet from the
"ground". Porygon enlarges itself and flies down to save the kids and Pikachu, and as they're flying over the network, they see
what's causing the monster-ball mix-up; the strange people are the Team Rocket (gee, what a surprise), who've set up
roadblocks on the highway to block the flow of monster-balls. James and Jessie send Weezing and Arbok to fight Porygon, but
Porygon counters by mimicking Weezing's smog attack; they then send the prototype Porygon to fight Ash's Porygon, and while
the fight's going, the kids and Pikachu try to remove the barricades blocking the highway.

Meanwhile, back at the Pokemon Center, Nurse Joy hired a computer consultant to put an anti-virus in the system, which
unfortunately can't tell the difference between computer code and human beings. Team Rocket gets hit by the anti-virus
program, taking out their Porygon, and Ash and the others manage to save them before the anti-virus attacks them again.
(James: "I'm a human, not a computer virus! Help!!!") Everyone manages to escape in the nick of time thanks to Pikachu, but
Akihabara's lab gets blown up in the process, destroying the human-sized transporter.

While travelling through the forest, Ash and his friends discover a pack of Pikachus. Ash's Pikachu is overjoyed, but when he
tries to make friends with the others, they run away. It seems that these Pikachus are afraid of humans and tame Pokemon (but
since when has Pikachu ever been considered tame?); even when Pikachu manages to win the trust of a few of them, Ash's
presence frightens them away.

One of the baby Pikachus follows them, however, and falls into a river. Pikachu dives in to save him, and both are saved by the
Pikachu pack. Now that Pikachu is a hero, the others take him in gladly, and Ash lets him stay with the others, despite his own
worries and loneliness. In the night, the entire pack, including Pikachu, is captured by the Team Rocket in a electricity-proof net.
They almost escape, too; Pikachu chews his way out of the net and distracts the Team Rocket long enough to let Ash and the
others rescue the pack. Pikachu deals with the Team Rocket, and he becomes a true hero to the pack.

Ash, on the other hand, comes to a difficult decision; since Pikachu is so happy with his fellow Pokemon, he decides to leave
him behind. Brock and Misty are startled, and when Pikachu comes out to ask what Ash's doing, he tells Pikachu that he'd be
happier with the others than with him. Ash runs away, leaving his best friend behind in shock...

As he runs, he remembers all the good times, and not-so-good times, he had with his friend Pikachu. From the time they first
met... to the battles they fought long after... and all the happy times in between. Brock and Misty catch up to him, but Ash has
made up his mind, and there's no changing it. The sun rises slowly, and someone casts a shadow over Ash, he looks up.

Pikachu is standing at the top of a hill, with the pack behind him. They cheer him on, as a hero, and Pikachu gives them his
goodbyes. Then he runs towards Ash, looking happier than ever before. Ash smiles as he realizes that his friend doesn't want to
leave him...

"Pikapi! (Ash!)" "Pikachu!" The two are reunited, and they hug each other for a long time... Welcome back, Pikachu! We all
missed you!

37-The Battling Eevee Brothers

Ash and his friends find a Eevee that's been abandoned by her owner from Stone Town. They soon find out that Mikey, her
owner, intentionally hid her away so that he wouldn't be forced to evolve her at a party that his three brothers planned. Each of
his brothers has a different evolution of Eevee - Jolteon, Vaporeon and Flareon - and they believe that Mikey should evolve his
Eevee and they push him to do so. Team Rocket shows up and steals Mikey's Eevee and all the evolved Pokemon at the party,
and before they try to experiment with Eevee and evolution stones, Ash, his friends and the brothers attack them but get
defeated. Mikey then attacks with his Eevee and manages to defeat Team Rocket, and his brothers accept that he wants to
keep his Eevee just the way she is.

38-Wake Up Snorlax

Hungry and tired, Ash and his friends arrive in a small town in the hopes of finding some food, but they soon find out that the
town's river has run dry and no food can be found. They discover that it's because a Snorlax is blocking the river, and try as
they might, they can't get it to budge from its spot. Team Rocket spots the Snorlax and want to capture it to try to present
something to their boss, and they team up with the "brats" to try to get it out of the way, but no matter what they try, they don't
manage. They find out that an old hippie who they met outside of town has a Poke-Flute that can wake up the Snorlax, so Ash
and his friends find him and persuade him to wake the Snorlax, who they discover actually owns the sleeping Pokemon. The
Snorlax wakes up, and eats the thorns blocking the river, saving the town.

Ash and his friends arrive in Dark City, only to discover (much to their discomfort) that
wandering Pokemon trainers are not welcome in town. Two rival gyms, the Yas and Kas Gyms, are fighting to become official
Pokemon gyms, and their battles have spilled into the streets of Dark City, causing a great deal of damage and fear among the
citizens. Ash and the others, deciding after encounters with both gyms that each are little more than gangs of greedy bullies,
work with the townsfolk to ensure that both gyms get a lesson in what it really means to be Pokemon trainers. And once again,
Team Rocket gets the short end of the stick...

It's carnival time, and Ash and Brock gets caught up in the fever! Misty, on the other
hand, is more reserved, and while avoiding the parades and festivites, she gets roped into helping the hopeless magician Melvin
with his act. His only Pokemon, the egg-like Exeggcute, doesn't do much to interest the crowds... but when Ash falls prey to the
Pokemon's hypnotic powers, Melvin uses him to capture a whole herd of Exeggcutor, tree-like Pokemon with even stronger
hypnotic powers. As usual, however, Team Rocket shows up to interfere, and when things go from bad to worse, it's up to
Melvin and Ash's Charmander, who evolves into Charmeleon, to save both the carnival and the herd of Exeggcutor from
disaster.
