We begin the episode with Team Rocket getting blasted off. Wow, that was fast. Jessie is understandably angry, and starts blaming James and Meowth. The three of them quickly decide that they hate the others and everyone splits up, insisting they can do better on their own.

Cut to the heroes, who just reach Pewter City. Butch is there, disguised, telling people about the special one day-only Pokemon Battle Tournament. Cassidy (disguised as a Nurse Joy) insists on taking everyone's pokemon save those used in the tournament, of course planning to steal all of them. Jessie, James, and Meowth each independently decides to come to the contest as well, each hoping to steal the pokemon. Cassidy invites James to join Butch and her, mostly to annoy Jessie. Jessie, for her part, allies with Butch, who seems more confused than actually angry with Cassidy, but whatever, I guess.

Max discovers the truth about the tournament and tells the rest of the heroes. They confront James and Cassidy, who attempt to do the motto, but Cassidy doesn't know the lines to the new motto and they ultimately just attack the heroes. It's actually kind of funny, I admit.

The heroes reveal everything to all of the trainers present, and a thousand Rocket Grunts attack. Everyone starts fighting, and then the dumbest line ever is said.
"You just don't understand! Pokeballs aren't like baseballs."
I'm not even going to finish this review, just because of that line.
