Summary
Once again, Ash and co. are traveling on Lapras again. Ash is hungry, and Misty and Tracey sigh. Pikachu spots an island up ahead. Ash and co. hopes the island has food. While heading to the island, Jigglypuff pops out of the water. When they get to the island, Pikachu and Togepi plays around. Ash tells them to not get lost. Ash and co. thinks that they have the island all to themselves. Misty tells Goldeen and Staryu to have some fun. Ash says that Lapras can have some fun too. Some kind of fruit falls on Ash's head. Tracey picks it up and examines it. Ash sees a flying Pokémon up above. Ash takes out his Pokédex, and it says that the Pokémon is a Farfetch'd. Then a flock of Farfetch'd flies out of the trees. Tracey makes a sketch of the flock. Then Pikachu and Togepi comes around with some fruit. Deep in the forest, Ash and Misty takes the same fruit from a tree. They take a bite from the fruit, only realizing that the fruit is sour. Tracey comes in with some darker fruit. Ash bites into the fruit, and he likes it. They decide to give their Pokémon a little vacation since the food is free. Misty lets Psyduck out, but she already notices that Psyduck is already out of its Pokéball. Scyther starts to scare Squirtle and Bulbasaur. It shows its claws to them. Togepi jumps out of Misty's arms, and it comes close to Scyther. The other Pokémon says hello to Scyther. Ash tries to get Charizard to pay attention to him, but Charizard shoots flames at Ash. Scyther demolishes the flames with its claws. Charizard and Scyther give a long stare at each other.

Team Rocket is enjoying their time at the beach. Marill and Togepi swim by. Team Rocket assumes that Ash and co. are also on the island. Meanwhile, Ash and co. are gathering up some more fruit. Team Rocket is spying on all of the Pokémon. James thought that they were going to forget about the Pokémon, but Jessie reminds him that they are in debt. Scyther is busy trying to get Snorlax to stop eating the food. Ash tells Snorlax that the food will soon be ready. Jigglypuff pops out of the food, and it begins to sing. Everyone falls asleep. When they wake up, they see that Jigglypuff is gone. Tracey suggests that they let Snorlax sleep longer.

During the sunset, all the Pokémon has a plate of food in front of them. Tracey brings over a plate of fruit sandwiches to Ash and Misty. Misty asks if they have any cheese or peanut butter. Tracey tells her that they don't have any left. Snorlax takes the sandwiches and gobbles them up in one bite.

After dinner, they help clean the dishes in a nearby river. They noticed that Snorlax hasn't been eating much lately. Tracey thinks that it's because Snorlax hasn't used much energy. Meanwhile, Marill and Togepi are playing together. Scyther shows off its moves towards Charizard. Ash hopes that they don't get into a fight.

At night, Pikachu wakes up. It notices that Ash isn't in bed. Ash is sitting on a rock looking at the GS Ball. He takes out a regular Pokéball and compares them. Pikachu walks right by Ash. Together, they look at the stars. Ash takes out his gym badges, and he recalls the times with them. Tracey talks in his sleep, and Misty wakes up. However, a Sleep Powder puts them both to sleep again. The source of the Sleep Powder is James's Victreebel. However, Charizard and Scyther haven't been affected. Jessie takes out her gun. She pulls the trigger, and suction cups are released onto the Pokémon. They start to reel the Pokémon in, but Snorlax's weight is too much for Team Rocket.

Scyther cuts the ropes. With Scyther and Charizard's loud roars, everyone wakes up. The Pokémon sees the suction cups on them. Ash comes running into the scene. Team Rocket says their motto to them. They slide down a rope, but they knock into a tree. Team Rocket sends out their Pokémon. Arbok and Weezing appears. Weezing fills the area with a Smokescreen. Scyther uses its body to blow the gas away. Bulbasaur uses Vine Whip to knock down Arbok and Weezing. Then Squirtle uses Water Gun, and the Pokémon are sent back into Team Rocket. Pikachu's Thundershock weakens Team Rocket. Charizard steps out, and it uses Flamethrower on Team Rocket. With a Skull Bash from Scyther, Team Rocket blasts off again.

Ash congratulates his Pokémon for their hard work. Charizard and Scyther stares at each other, and then they walk away. Tracey thinks that Charizard and Scyther are respecting each other. Ash hopes that they don't fight each other. Ash and co. leaves the island with Lapras. Meanwhile, Team Rocket sits on an island thinking of what they can do. A Farfetch'd approaches Team Rocket. A bunch of other Farfetch'd surrounds them. They beat up Team Rocket with their leaks.
