Heading to Violet City for the first gym, Ash and company meet Casey, a new Trainer who just got her first Pokémon, a Chikorita who eagerly challenges Ash to a battle. When Ash easily beats her with his Charizard, she gets upsets and runs off wanting revenge. She makes an alliance with Team Rocket, who agree to help her beat Ash, that is, until she finds out that Team Rocket was just using her. (Or) In Pokémon battle, Ash soundly defeats an ambitious young trainer, who runs away dejectedly. Before Ash can comfort the novice, though, Team Rocket steps in, convincing the lad that Ash won by foul play, and recruiting the girl to their cause. |
