Synopsis

The gang has finally reached the main island where the Whirl Cup will be held. Ash and Misty go on with their talking about their dreams and such when finally they head over to the Pokémon center for some info. Obviously it seems like their not the only ones who want to enter. They wait in a long line for while and finally they get to the front desk. Brock goes off with flirting with Joy when Misty finally puts him out of the picture for a while. Ash and Misty register and it looks like there's going to be a qualifying match before the tournament. She shows a picture of the tournament tree, only 16 entries available. Team Rocket spies from the outside of the Center and comes up with another plan. They want to swipe any good water Pokémon and give it to the boss, but Meowth wants a "Theme Park."

While the gang walks around town, they notice a boy walking around all down in the dumps. Misty goes up and asks him if he's alright. The boy replies only asking if any of them are in the tournement, which Misty says yes. Immediately the boy introduces himself (Marcellus) and asks if any of them would battle, or train for a while. Misty accepts and they head off to a battle site. The site is covered in water, only having two stones as trainer boxes plus four pillars. Marcellus says that this is supposed to simulate what the real arena looks like. Both get ready, Marcellus sends out Remoraid and Misty calls upon Corsola. Marcellus commands Remoraid to use Water Gun, which Corsola counters with Mirror Coat, knocking back the Remoraid but not knocking it out. Corsola goes for a Tackle but Remoraid dives underneath and Corsola hits one of the pillars. It seems like Remoraid is no where to be seen but soon it is spotted on a wave. Marcellus tells Remoraid to use another Water Gun and this time it knocks Crosola out. Remoraid then evolves into Octillery. Marcellus thanks them and heads off. It's late night back at the Pokémon Center and Ash and Misty have a big day tomorrow. Ash asks Pikachu to be his support while Misty asks Brock to keep her Togepi company while battling.

The next day, the matches are quick to end. On Ash's side, it was Totodile vs. Seel followed by Totodile vs. Shellder. While Misty's was Corsola vs. Seaking and Poliwhirl vs. Magikarp. After their matches, the three join up at the Pokémon Center where they see Marcellus again, but this time he seems down. Ash asks if he didn't make it, but Misty shoves him off and asks what's up. Marcellus explains that there's something going on with his Octillery lately. They go over to his house where they go in a room full of Remoraid in a aquarium. Marcellus releases his Octillery and it goes inside the tank, towards the school of Remoraid. The Remoraid, however shift to the opposite direction of Octillery. Octillery follows but again they shift to the other side. This continues until the Remoraid finally shoots out Water Gun at Octillery, which it goes in jar. They now understand the situation. After a few ideas, they dress up Ash in a Octillery costume, much to Ash's chagrin. Ash tries to lure out the Octillery but instead gets shot at. Maybe there's another way... but they put that on hold for now.

During the night, Team Rocket slip in and commence their plan, get the Remoraid since it seems to be the easiest to steal. The gang and Marcellus are about to start dinner when they hear a funny noise. Marcellus says he'll check it out. When he gets there, he flips on the light switch and sees Team Rocket. Immediately they go off with their motto, Marcellus not getting the idea until he sees the tanks are empty. Ash comes in and sees Team Rocket, however they make their escape in a truck and drives off. Looks like they can't catch up, but they notice puddles on the ground. Looks like Octillery left a trail.

Team Rocket stop at the port where a boat is already waiting. Meowth goes and operates the crane while James opens up the back. While Meowth is operating, Octillery comes up unnoticed and starts smothering Meowth. Jessie and James pull of Octillery but soon it goes in a mad rage tackling Team Rocket to the ground. Soon Octillery bashes the aquarium until it cracks open, releasing all the Remoraid into the ocean water. Now the gang has caught up, but Team Rocket isn't giving up. Meowth tries to grab Octillery with the crane, making a few unsuccesful moves but finally getting it. Ash is about to have Pikachu use Thunderbolt but Meowth laughs saying "Do that and Octillery here is toast". With no other option, the Remoraid all fire at the crane, causing Octillery to go flying. But Remoraid save it with Water Gun, sending it back onto the port. Pikachu then releases Thunderbolt followed by Octillery shooting an Octazooka, blowing Team Rocket sky high. After the battle, the Remoraid soon evovle into Octillery themselves and it looks like Marcellus's Octillery won't be lonely.

The next day, the finalist trainers await at a cliff to watch the Whirl Cup Stadium, partially flooded, rise. It looks like the real battle just begun.
