Synopsis
Template:Incomplete synopsis
As Ash and friends leave the Pokémon Center, Ash bumps into a kid holding a Growlithe in his hands. He warns them to not go near a Trainer by this one bridge, and once he leaves, Ash decides to go anyway. As the group is discussing which Pokémon the Trainer might use, Team Rocket overhears their conversation and decides to snag the Pokémon when they are weak in the battle. Once they reach the destination, Misty spots someone. It turns out that the Trainer is a girl, much to Brock's excitement. He does his usual girl technique, and she reveals that her name is Nicky, but instead she decides to battle him. She tells Brock to send out a Template:Type2 Pokémon. Nicky sends out Skarmory, while Brock sends out his only Fire-type Pokémon, Vulpix. The battle starts with Skarmory making a dust cloud in Vulpix's face, while it swoops back into the air. Before Skarmory can attack Vulpix uses Flamethrower, only to miss because of it using Agility. It then turns into an Agility battle when Vulpix tries to run away from Skarmory using Agility. Skarmory then uses Steel Wing on Vulpix, throwing massive damage towards Vulpix, ending the battle. Nicky asks Brock if he has any more Fire-type Pokémon, but Ash instead says that he has one, but it might just be to hot for her Skarmory to battle against. The battle starts, and Ash sends out Cyndaquil. Skarmory attacks with Fury Attack as Cyndaquil dodges. Cyndaquil, still trying to get its flames going gets attacked by Swift. Cyndaquil dodges another Fury Attack using Agility, but gets hit by the last one. Cyndaquil then got its flames going, as it then uses Flamethrower. It misses, and then Cyndaquil gets attacked by Swift. Skarmory swoops down to use Steel Wing, when Cyndaquil uses Flamethrower, missing yet another time. Just as Skarmory is about to attack, cranes shoot down and grab the two Pokémon. Team Rocket recites their motto, when the rage starts between Ash and friends and Team Rocket. Skarmory escapes using Swift on the rope, while Cyndaquil is still held captive. After a long time of running, Skarmory shows up and uses Steel Wing on the balloon. They go blasting off again, while Ash catches Cyndaquil. Later, they arrive at Nicky's house to eat food made by Brock. She reveals that she and Skarmory do almost everything together. Ash and Cyndaquil are then seen running up a hill, trying to get stronger. Ash tells Cyndaquil to hit him with the best Tackle attack it can do. After a little while, Ash tells it to get his flame going.
Major events
- Cyndaquil learns to ignite the flame on its back easily.

- When it first premiered on Kids' WB!, the part which shows Ash training with Cyndaquil to the part where he gets a bite to eat was cut out in order to make room for Pokérap GS. In future airings, the uncut version would be shown.
