Professor Oak says it is on the Indigo Plateau in two months Professor Oak then shows all the pokemon they have each caught, Gary having over 150, (some the same) and Ash having quite a few, most tauros from the safari zone. then Professor Oak explains how he spends his days and reserches on the pokemon. When he gives Ash and Gary back their pokedex Ash has seen over 100 and Gary has seen 60. Ash is jumping for joy, but Gary says he catches the pokemon first before getting to know it.

66) The Evolution Solution
Who's That Pokemon? Raichu
The episode starts out by metioning Ash is in his home town Pallet and stuff like that. A group of people from Pallet are going to see Seafoam Islands including Brock and Misty. Ash walks to them so he can go too, but his mom pulls him by the ear saying that you have to stay home and train for the Pokemon League. Ash is all disappointed and Brock and Misty say good-bye. Ash then goes out to Professor Oaks house and sees him wondering over how slowpoke evolves into slowbro. He wonders why shellder clamps on to slowpoke's tail and turn its shell into a different shape. Professor Oak then tells Ash maybe Professor Westwood the designer of the pokedex would know and sends him to Seafoam Island to go visit him. Ash arrives at Seafoam Island and it shows him and Pikachu standing with the waves splashing against their feet and they see Brock and Misty wind surfing. Misty says I knew he'd come and goof off if we left then she falls off her board. Later it shows Ash explaining why he's there and they go to Professor Westwood's Laboratory and see many things. He is fascinated by Togepi. But when they arrive in a main room they see that he is trying to figure out exactly what Professor Oak was trying to do. The room looks over the beach and they see his Slowpoke down below and go fishing. Slowpoke is a good fisher the pokedex says. It also says that Slowpoke is kind of dopey. Since Professor Westwood programmed the pokedex Misty asked him if he put that and he said maybe one of his helpers did. He says dopey is a good way to describe slowpoke. Pikachu tries to talk to it, but learns nothing. Misty then says I recognize that face and then Psyduck comes out of his Pokeball and she says I know it's the same dopey face Psyduck has. Psyduck starts to talk with slowpoke and they say the same thing over and over again with a long pause in between and question marks popping up on the screen. Then they are on the balcony going back inside........
Meanwhile on the beach Giovanni is relaxing with his Persian and saying after the Team Rocket HQs blew up we need a vacation. A ways away Jesse and james are digging for clams. James gets mad because everybody is having fun except for them and starts to dig really fast al over the place. he hits something hard which turns out to be a shellder and says Weezing I choose you! Jesse is mad at him and accuses him of sounding like the brat (Ash) and James says something about goodie two shoes. James uses haze and is about to use a pokeball when Jesse buts in and catches it herself. James says that's not fair and an assistant of the boss then tells them Giovanni wants to see them. The boss says that they have to stop goofing off and wants them to break into Professor Westwood's Lab and steal valuable info on rare pokemon that might help him, (probably about mewtwo).
On the balcony Ash, Misty, & Brock look out and see a handglider coming towards them. It's Team Rocket as you might have guessed and they land on the balcony screaming of fright form riding it and the material covers them up. They say their motto under it and say the want a Team Rocket dex and they give Professor Westwood what they say all the necessary items needed. it's just a good description of the three of them. Jesse then sends out shellder to evolve slowpoke so they can steal a slowbro for the boss. Misty wants to battle with her water pokemon and blocks Ash and sends out staryu, but Psyduck comes out. Shellder clamps on his tail and other places until it clamps on his head giving him a powerful enough headache to use disable so Team Rocket can't move. The professor then orders slowpoke to come to him and he steps out and falls down right infront of shellder. Shellder clamps on to his tail and slowpoke evolves. Professor Westwood then orders Slowbro to use mega punch and blasts Team Rocket off again. The professor then knows why shellder clasps on to slowpoke's tail. It helps balance slowbro so it can stand on two legs not four and make it able to use attck such as mega punch. It also allows shellder to travel out of water. Ash, Misty and Brock then leave and Misty says that Ash wasted a whole day of training, but Ash says it's part of his training to learn about pokemon to. Misty's Psyduck is unhappy and ash suggests that maybe it wants to say good-bye to slowbro and then again they say the same thing over and over again with the question marks and the episode ends, leaving us craving for more.

The director is all mad and says kids these days only care about cartoon shows, (how right he is) Brock says I know who you are you directed my favourite movie I saw what you ate last Tuesday! Katrina says really, I almost saw that! Clevon Spealbunk then introduces one of the main stars wigglytuff, Meowth insults it and gets double slapped badly. then Brock says look at that face, it's hard to believe a Pokemon that cute can be such a brute and he also gets double slapped a lot for that. Everybody wants their Pokemon to get into the movie, Ash tries pikachu, Brock Vulpix, Misty staryu, but psyduck comes out instead. Arbok, Weezing and Meowth try and Katrina's Raichu and a Hitmonlee. They have to dance first and Raichu, Pikachu, Vulpix, psyduck, and Meowth make it to the next round. The next tryout you have to sing. Wigglytuff beats up Meowth, Arbok, and Weezing and Jesse and James say how dare you don't use a Team Rocket pokemon in your movie and send Weezing and Arbok after Clevon. Weezing and Arbok are walking away sulking and Jesse and James run after them. Jigglypuff comes to sing and puts evrybody to sleep and draws on their faces. Ash and Misty wake up and point at eachother's face making and ahh noise. Later it shows the director cleaning of his face saying people, and other things since Psyduck is the only one left he gets the part. he then shows them all a few pictures to summarize his original movie (like Romeo and Juliet) of Psyduck taking Wigglytuff home after their first date and their feuding family and friends. Misty says it doesn't sound original to me and Brock says I love it with tears streaming down his eyes and Ash says similar stuff with tears streaming down his eyes wanting to see it again. they offer to help out with the movie for free and the director excepts.
Meanwhile Jesse and James are trying to cheer Arbok and Weezing up who are still sulking and Jesse says it's a long way up the stairway of stardom and James puts in and there is no elevator! They get Arbok and Weezing to forget about the movie tryouts and head off to make more trouble......
The director wants to shoot the last scene last so he knows how the movie turns out. He gets to groups of Pokemon one lead by pikachu and the other by raichu to be the feuding families and Ash orders pidgeotto to use gust attack to make it windy, Misty orders staryu to use water gun to make it rain and pikachu and raichu use thundershock to create a thunderstorm. Then there is a big fight and wigglytuff and Psyduck rush up to them and pikachu is thrown out of the fight and hits wigglytuff on the head. Wigglytuff is about to beat up pikachu about it when smoke comes up from the ground. Team rocket appears saying their motto infront of the camera pushing eachother out of the way to be infront of the camera. Ass says to the pokemon we can't let them ruin the movie and they move in on Team Rocket and all fight Ash orders them what to do and turns around to see he's on camera. He says Hi I'm Ash from the town of Pallet, then Misty pushes Ash out of the way and says thanks for choosing me as the most beautiful Pokemon Trainer, then Brock puts his face infront of it and says hello ladies. Katrina screems an they all turn to look and Team Rocket has all their pokemon in a net except for Psyduck. Misty says (yells) since you're the only pokemon left you have to save them! Wigglytuff syas wigglytuff over and over again, (to psyduck?) and finally Psyduck uses his confusin power making Jame's hair rise and we finally see he has ears! He blasts Team Rocket off again then falls over from too much psychic power. Wigglytuff runs over and props Psyduck up and Ash says hip hip hooray with everybody saying it with him, (all on tape) and the director runs up and shakes his hand and says fabulous ending, I'm glad I thought of it! Later they are all surrounding a fire and Ash is talking about the pokemon league with Katrina saying how they'll have some good battles there. Ash is depressed at wasting another day, but Misty says that it was good experiance to be in a movie. Then it says there is only a few more weeks till the Pokemon League.
69) Go West, Young Meowth
Who's That Pokemon? Onix
Brock and Ash are doing streches on Ash's front porch and Ash exclaims how he loves workouts and inside the house Misty says the only thing that those to give a workout to is the T.V. remote. An invatation arrives in the mail for Ash's Mom, and our heros to go to the opening of Pokemon Love Story. Ash is sad and says go and leave me here. Then he says you'll miss me so I better come too. It then shows As, and Brock in a fancy blue suit and Misty and Ash's mom in a nice dress saying, "All right, we're in Hollywood!" Then it goes to real life they're in the same pose, but their usual clothes. The place they are in is very run down and shabby and they eventually find the movie theatre they want and go inside. Then it shows Team Rocket and Meowth and Meowth says he has to leave for some personal business. He walks around saying that the place has hit hard times. We find out that he was a little kitten with no home and was starving, he travelled to Hollywood after seeing a movie tied up in a tree where a baseball team put him after he tried to eat their balls. He broke the ropes and ran off. He tries to stael roast chicken from a nearby stand, but drops it when he tries to get away with it. He was then surrounded by Meowth and a Persian in some sort of gang and they give him the remains of a fish and he wolfs it down and looks up with his eyes watering, nobody had ever treated him kind. On day when he was stealing chicken he saw a pretty girl meowth across the street names Meowse and fell in love, Meowse doesn't like him and says he is just a poor street cat and not human. Her rich owner come out of a store with Meowse's new diamond studded pokeball and calls her back leaving Meowth alone. meowth then tries to walk on two legs and tries to talk. he learns how to walk on two legs after lots of practice and the next tim he stole chicken he was caught and badly beaten up and thrown in the attic of some building. he finds a picture book and tries the alphabet, no success. Sown below him he hears a class repeating he sells seashells by the seashore. He is caught again and again trying to run on two legs, then one day he can actually say a word properly his first word is "Rocket" then he can say he sells seashells by the seashore. He then leaves the gang and joins Team Rocket. Now we go back out of thought and in reality, (sort of) and Meowth's old gang surrounds him. He is surprised to see that meowse is a member and asks why, it then shows her owner saying I'm almost out of money and I'd like to keep you, but you can fend for yourself and releases her and drives away. He tells the gang Meowse is coming with him and they get mad and surround Meowth. Just when they are about to attack him Tema Rocket comes and sings their song partly, they say, You know it's us Team Rocket when we fight for what is wrong, we're tierd of out motto so we thought we'd try a song. Meowth cuts in saying you saved me and Team Rocket says we have to protect our little buddy. Meowth's eye's are again watering with happiness.
The movie has ended and Ash's mom and the gang clap, (they're the only ones there) Ash says I never say us in it and Ash's mom says I thought I saw togepi and pikachu from the back for an instant. Clevon says sadly he had to cut them out because it was about pokemon. Ash, Misty, and Brock all bow their heads thinking they failed their first time making a movie. Just then the lights come on and Jesse and James dance across the stage dressed up, (James finally wearing men's clothes for a change!)
Meowth and Persian are having a battle over Meowse, meowth wins and Meowse starts running to meowth, but it turns out she was running to the Persian. She says she wants to stay with him because he took her in when she had nothing left. She also adds that Meowth is now a talking freak and Meowth is all sad. The episode ends with Ash losing yet ANOTHER day of training! An there is less than 3 months till the Pokemon League.
