Synopsis
Template:Incomplete synopsis
Arriving in Ecruteak City, Ash immediately heads to the Gym to challenge its leader for his next Johto League badge. Our heroes soon realize this isn't a normal gym... it bursts into flames as soon as they enter! Trying to douse the flames with their Water Pokémon, they find out the blaze is bogus. It's actually the Gastly, Haunter and Gengar instigating the illusion. Find out how these Ghost-types end up helping our heroes when Togepi and Pikachu get lost among the ruins...

Trivia
- This episode was initially titled The Tower Inferno; however, unlike The Tower Of Terror, this episode was renamed rather than banned after the September 11 attacks.
- The English title of this episode is taken from the phrase "a ghost of a chance".
- This episode features the Itemfinder, though it is referred to as a "Treasure Detector".
Errors
- In the English dub, a Haunter appears and cries "Gengar" instead of "Haunter".
Dub edits
- The scene where Ash and co. are chasing Team Rocket with Pikachu and Togepi was edited for violence. When Ash first attempts to get both Pokémon back, Meowth scratches Ash's face. The original version showed Meowth scratching Ash's face. In the dub, the scratching was replaced with stars on a black background.
