== Synopsis ==
<!-- Detailed synopsis goes here. -->
Ash, Misty and Brock come across a bridge during their travels. They want to walk on it but the officer says only the bike track is ready, not the actual road. Devastated, the group then attempts to get a bike but is unsuccessful. When they go to the Pokémon Center to think of a plan to get a bike, they find a worried Nurse Joy. She says she has to deliver medicine for injured Pokémon over the bridge but she cannot leave the center because she has Pokémon to attend to. Ash and Misty agree enthusiastically. As they ride joyfully across the bridge, James, Jessie and Meowth sail slowly below the bridge. Jessie makes plans.
Just after Ash and his group finished their refreshments, a crazy group of wild bikers come. They try to escape but are surrounded. The leader of the gang, Chopper challenges Ash to a Pokémon battle. He sends out Golem and Ash sends out Bulbasaur. Golem easily defeats it with a single tackle. Charmander sets Golem on fire with a flamethrower and an ember. Golem tackles Charmander but ends up setting fire to 3 of the gang's members. Chopper withdraws his Golem but the Poké Ball is still hot from Charmander's attack.
Next, Tyra the other leader of the bike gang sends out Cloyster. Misty wants to battle and sends out Starmie but Psyduck appears. Misty decides to give it a chance. Psyduck is clueless and the bike gang cracks up in laughter. Psyduck does tail whip and again, the bike gangs laughs at it. After a few rounds of this humiliation, Team Rocket arrives and says their motto. But it appears that TR are heroes in the bike gang's view. Just as TR and the bike gang attack Ash, Misty and Brock, the police arrive. Officer Jenny offers them a ride but she has a job to do. The weather gets ferocious and turns into a storm. Chopper and Tyra challenge TR to ride through them storm.
In Sunny Town, Nurse Joy is worried that medicine isn't arriving to cure the injured Pokémon, a Shellder.
Then, a ship passes by and the bridge lifts up but Ash is determined to save the sick Pokémon. Just as they were not going to make it, they see TR and bounce over their heads, sending TR into the water. As they pass the bike gang, they challenge Ash to a battle. Ash, of course, refuses and tells them he's delivering medicine for a sick Pokémon. The bike gang realises now why they are riding through the storm and joins them.
Nurse Joy in Sunny Town is relieved when the bike gang and Ash arrive with the medicine. The bike gang's new heroes are Awesome Ash and Mighty Misty.

<i>In the course of a journey, one meets up with many different things. Returning to civilization after a long period of wandering, our heroes find a bridge that reaches 20 kilometers in length. There is no way to reach Sunnytown—on the other side of the bridge—but by crossing. The bridge, however, has been designed especially for bicycles. The party tries to purchase bicycles in order to cross the bridge, but lacking the funds and otherwise at a complete loss, they decide to stop by the Pokémon Center and re-evaluate their plans. At the Pokémon Center, by pure luck, a job awaits them—delivering medicine to Sunnytown.</i>
 
==Plot==
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} come across a bridge, but when they try to walk on it, an officer named {{OBP|Norman|EP036}} says only the bike track was ready, not the actual road. Devastated, the group then sees a [[Bicycle|bike]] store, but their prices are expensive. The group retreats to the [[Pokémon Center]] to think of a plan to get a bike. Suddenly, a worried [[Nurse Joy]] appears and says she had to deliver medicine for injured {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} over the bridge to [[Sunnytown]], but she cannot leave the Center because she has Pokémon to attend to. Ash and {{an|Misty}} agree to carry out the task for her after Nurse Joy informs them she has several spare bikes. Misty and {{an|Brock}} ride a tandem bicycle, whilst Ash leads in his single bike, enjoying the bridge's view and fresh air. Meanwhile, below the bridge, [[James]] rows an inflatable boat whilst [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} peer through their binoculars and notice Ash and his friends. Jessie and James mention the area could almost be considered their hometown and make plans to target {{AP|Pikachu}}.
 
Just after Ash and his friends finish their refreshments, they find themselves surrounded by a group of wild {{tc|biker}}s. They tried to escape, but the gang's leader [[Chopper]] challenges Ash to a {{pkmn|battle}}. He sends out his {{p|Golem}} and Ash calls on {{AP|Bulbasaur}}. Golem's shell protects it from Bulbasaur's {{m|Vine Whip}} and it easily wins with a single {{m|Tackle}}. Ash then sends out {{AP|Charmander}}, who sets Golem alight with {{m|Flamethrower}} and {{m|Fire Spin}}. Golem's Tackle misses Charmander, and it strikes several of the gang members instead, making Ash and Charmander laugh at their misfortune. Chopper withdraws his Golem, but the {{i|Poké Ball}} is still hot from Charmander's attack.
 
Next, [[Tyra]], the other leader of the bike gang, sends out {{p|Cloyster}} against Misty, who tries to send out {{TP|Misty|Starmie}}, but {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} appears instead. Misty decides to give it a chance, but Psyduck's attacks repeatedly backfire on it. Before Psyduck has a chance to develop a headache from Cloyster's own attacks, {{TRT}} arrives, riding on unicycles and saying their {{motto}}. They receive a heroes' welcome from the bicycle gang, who refer to Jessie as "Chainer Jessie" and "Big Jess" for her penchant of swinging a chain around as she rode her bike, and James as "Little Jim" and "Trainer James" because he was the only one in the bike gang who had to use training wheels. Just as Team Rocket and the bike gang begin to attack Ash and his friends, the police arrive. The bike gang immediately rides off, almost leaving Team Rocket behind. When [[Officer Jenny]] arrives, she offers them a ride, though she retracts her offer after being called to another emergency. As the [[weather]] becomes ferocious and turns into a storm, the bicycle gang and Team Rocket seek refuge in a building. Chopper and Tyra then challenge Team Rocket to ride through the storm on their unicycles. The whole trio falls for the peer pressure and accepts the task.
 
In Sunnytown, Nurse Joy calls the other Pokémon Center; she is worried that medicine hasn't arrived to cure the injured Pokémon, a {{p|Shellder}}. As Ash and his friends continue to ride through the rainstorm, the bridge lifts to allow a ship to pass through. However, they determinedly continue riding. Simultaneously, Team Rocket is trying their hardest to pedal their unicycles up the other side of the upturned bridge. Just as Ash and his friends are not going to make it, they see Team Rocket jumping from the other side and promptly bounce on their heads, sending the trio into the water while allowing themselves to be propelled upward and on to the other side. As they pass the bike gang, they are challenged to a battle. When Ash refuses and tells them that he is delivering medicine for a sick Pokémon, the gang decides to escort them. They arrive in time, and Nurse Joy quickly pours the medicine into the tank, instantly improving Shellder's condition. Misty phones through to the other town's Nurse Joy, alerting her to their arrival. The bike gang promptly calls Ash and Misty "Awesome Ash" and "Mighty Misty". Brock tells Tyra that she can call him "Honey", only to receive a slap.
 
Meanwhile, Team Rocket emerges out of the water, stacked on a single unicycle and covered in seaweed.

Blurb

In the course of a journey, one meets up with many different things. Returning to civilization after a long period of wandering, our heroes find a bridge that reaches 20 kilometers in length. There is no way to reach Sunnytown—on the other side of the bridge—but by crossing. The bridge, however, has been designed especially for bicycles. The party tries to purchase bicycles in order to cross the bridge, but lacking the funds and otherwise at a complete loss, they decide to stop by the Pokémon Center and re-evaluate their plans. At the Pokémon Center, by pure luck, a job awaits them—delivering medicine to Sunnytown.

Plot

Ash and his friends come across a bridge, but when they try to walk on it, an officer named Norman says only the bike track was ready, not the actual road. Devastated, the group then sees a bike store, but their prices are expensive. The group retreats to the Pokémon Center to think of a plan to get a bike. Suddenly, a worried Nurse Joy appears and says she had to deliver medicine for injured Pokémon over the bridge to Sunnytown, but she cannot leave the Center because she has Pokémon to attend to. Ash and Misty agree to carry out the task for her after Nurse Joy informs them she has several spare bikes. Misty and Brock ride a tandem bicycle, whilst Ash leads in his single bike, enjoying the bridge's view and fresh air. Meanwhile, below the bridge, James rows an inflatable boat whilst Jessie and Meowth peer through their binoculars and notice Ash and his friends. Jessie and James mention the area could almost be considered their hometown and make plans to target Pikachu.

Just after Ash and his friends finish their refreshments, they find themselves surrounded by a group of wild bikers. They tried to escape, but the gang's leader Chopper challenges Ash to a battle. He sends out his Golem and Ash calls on Bulbasaur. Golem's shell protects it from Bulbasaur's Vine Whip and it easily wins with a single Tackle. Ash then sends out Charmander, who sets Golem alight with Flamethrower and Fire Spin. Golem's Tackle misses Charmander, and it strikes several of the gang members instead, making Ash and Charmander laugh at their misfortune. Chopper withdraws his Golem, but the Poké Ball is still hot from Charmander's attack.

Next, Tyra, the other leader of the bike gang, sends out Cloyster against Misty, who tries to send out Starmie, but Psyduck appears instead. Misty decides to give it a chance, but Psyduck's attacks repeatedly backfire on it. Before Psyduck has a chance to develop a headache from Cloyster's own attacks, Team Rocket arrives, riding on unicycles and saying their motto. They receive a heroes' welcome from the bicycle gang, who refer to Jessie as "Chainer Jessie" and "Big Jess" for her penchant of swinging a chain around as she rode her bike, and James as "Little Jim" and "Trainer James" because he was the only one in the bike gang who had to use training wheels. Just as Team Rocket and the bike gang begin to attack Ash and his friends, the police arrive. The bike gang immediately rides off, almost leaving Team Rocket behind. When Officer Jenny arrives, she offers them a ride, though she retracts her offer after being called to another emergency. As the weather becomes ferocious and turns into a storm, the bicycle gang and Team Rocket seek refuge in a building. Chopper and Tyra then challenge Team Rocket to ride through the storm on their unicycles. The whole trio falls for the peer pressure and accepts the task.

In Sunnytown, Nurse Joy calls the other Pokémon Center; she is worried that medicine hasn't arrived to cure the injured Pokémon, a Shellder. As Ash and his friends continue to ride through the rainstorm, the bridge lifts to allow a ship to pass through. However, they determinedly continue riding. Simultaneously, Team Rocket is trying their hardest to pedal their unicycles up the other side of the upturned bridge. Just as Ash and his friends are not going to make it, they see Team Rocket jumping from the other side and promptly bounce on their heads, sending the trio into the water while allowing themselves to be propelled upward and on to the other side. As they pass the bike gang, they are challenged to a battle. When Ash refuses and tells them that he is delivering medicine for a sick Pokémon, the gang decides to escort them. They arrive in time, and Nurse Joy quickly pours the medicine into the tank, instantly improving Shellder's condition. Misty phones through to the other town's Nurse Joy, alerting her to their arrival. The bike gang promptly calls Ash and Misty "Awesome Ash" and "Mighty Misty". Brock tells Tyra that she can call him "Honey", only to receive a slap.

Meanwhile, Team Rocket emerges out of the water, stacked on a single unicycle and covered in seaweed.
