Max is amazed by so many Pokémon, while May reminds him Ash has Charizard and Squirtle as well. The Pokémon meet each other (Kingler interacts with Corphish, Glalie playing with Totodile, Swellow flying with Noctowl, Torkoal greeting Cyndaquil and Heracross and Grovyle shaking hands), while Team Rocket sees all of them and plan to capture every last one of them. Team Rocket comes, dressed as reporters. They decided that Ash gives the interview, so he tells them he was in Ever Grande City for the Hoenn League. Meowth decides to get a better angle, so they all will be on TV. They go back so they are caught in the camera, but they fall into a hole. Noctowl and Swellow go to escape, but a net covers the top. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but the net is electric-proof. Team Rocket comes and takes off their disguises.
⚫
Grovyle uses Leaf Blade, cutting the net. Jessie demands an explanation to Meowth, as she requested a net that is resistant to all attacks, so Meowth tells her he got an electric-proof one, wanting to save money. Meowth presses a button, so they bring a giant robot. The robot begins to suck the Pokemon inside, so Bulbasaur uses Vine Whip to pull Totodile and Charmander. Squirtle cries, so May tells it everything will be fine. Meowth goes to pull to get more power, but Snorlax tackles the robot, so Team Rocket are pushed out of it. They plan to get Pikachu, so Jessie sends Seviper and James Cacnea. Birch, Oak and Ash's mom come, seeing Team Rocket. Birch decides to bring a Pokemon, but Delia stops him, letting the children handle them. Seviper starts with Poison Tail, but Ash's Bulbasaur uses Vine Whip to negate the attack and hit Seviper.

The Right Place and the Right Mime (Japanese: オーキド研究所！全員集合！！, Hepburn: Oak's Laboratory! Everyone Gathers!!) is the 42nd episode of Pokémon: Advanced Battle.

Synopsis

Ash returns home to meet with friends and family—and of course his many Pokémon now in the care of Professor Oak. Unfortunately, Team Rocket follows close behind with new technology aimed at stripping the Oak Laboratory of all its most rare and powerful Pokémon. After beating them soundly, Ash once again bids farewell to his hometown and sets out to face the challenges of the Battle Frontier.[1]

Episode plot

Delia Ketchum, Ash's mom is very happy that her son returned to Pallet Town. She knows that he has a lot to tell about the journey, but instead he went straight to Prof. Oak's lab. Suddenly, the doorbell rings - May and her Pokémon have arrived to Pallet Town as well. At the lab, Misty feeds a Squirtle, who is along with Charmander and Bulbasaur. Max goes to reach for Squirtle, but Squirtle cries and is upset, so Max pulls back. Tracey tells Max that he does not need to worry, while Max sees his drawing of them. Max thinks Tracey is one-of-a-kind, being an assistant to Oak and an artist. Tracey tells Max that Oak was once an artist as well. The Pokémon are tired, so Tracey decides to give them some rest.

Max calls the Pokémon back, but Squirtle runs away. May then arrives and Squirtle jumps into her arms. May wonders why is Max in the lab, so Prof. Birch comes to explain - he brought Max with him as a companion. Ash greets May, so Max tells her that he found Birch and Birch took him here. May thanks Prof. Birch, who has a Muk on his back. Later, Ash explains to May that he plans to go to the Battle Frontier - six areas and 1 secret, only detectable by having the 6 other symbols. Ash's mom feels that her son planning another yet journey and tells him that May already plans to enter the Kanto's Pokémon Contests. Birch says to May that she could capture some Pokémon that are rare to Hoenn, so she is tempted to start. Ash proposes to join with May, so she accepts - they will leave tomorrow, though Ash's mom is not pleased that her son so fast depart.

Tracey and Misty come, so Tracey sends Marill, who uses Water Gun, pushing the Tauros Ash is on, so Bayleef uses Vine Whip to get Ash back. Ash thanks Bayleef for assistance. May, Max and Ash's other Pokémon come, so the Squirtle May held before comes to May, so she hugs him. Tracey tells Ash that Bulbasaur was telling the other Pokémon Ash is coming.

Ash sends his current Pokémon for others to meet - he sends Swellow, Grovyle, Corphish, Torkoal and Glalie. Max is amazed by so many Pokémon, while May reminds him Ash has Charizard and Squirtle as well. The Pokémon meet each other (Kingler interacts with Corphish, Glalie playing with Totodile, Swellow flying with Noctowl, Torkoal greeting Cyndaquil and Heracross and Grovyle shaking hands), while Team Rocket sees all of them and plan to capture every last one of them. Team Rocket comes, dressed as reporters. They decided that Ash gives the interview, so he tells them he was in Ever Grande City for the Hoenn League. Meowth decides to get a better angle, so they all will be on TV. They go back so they are caught in the camera, but they fall into a hole. Noctowl and Swellow go to escape, but a net covers the top. Pikachu uses Thunderbolt, but the net is electric-proof. Team Rocket comes and takes off their disguises.

Grovyle uses Leaf Blade, cutting the net. Jessie demands an explanation to Meowth, as she requested a net that is resistant to all attacks, so Meowth tells her he got an electric-proof one, wanting to save money. Meowth presses a button, so they bring a giant robot, known as the "Suck-of-a-Punishment". The robot begins to suck the Pokémon inside, so Bulbasaur uses Vine Whip to pull Totodile and Charmander. Squirtle cries, so May tells it everything will be fine. Meowth goes to pull to get more power, but Snorlax tackles the robot, so Team Rocket are pushed out of it. They plan to get Pikachu, so Jessie sends Seviper and James Cacnea. Birch, Oak and Delia come, seeing Team Rocket in battle with the heroes. Birch decides to bring a Pokémon to assist them, but Delia stops him, letting the children handle them (after all, Delia knows her son and his friends very good - they defeated Team Rocket before and will do it again). Seviper starts with Poison Tail, but Ash's Bulbasaur uses Vine Whip to negate the attack and hit Seviper.

Cacnea uses Pin Missile, however May's Bulbasaur uses Petal Dance, negating the attack and hurting Cacnea. Seviper unleashes its bite attack and Cacnea uses Needle Arm, but Bulbasaur launches a Solar Beam to blast Seviper and Cacnea off. Team Rocket attempts to escape, but Misty and Tracey order Marill and Azurill to use Water Gun, pushing them to the fallen robot. May orders Combusken to burn them Fire Spin and And Ash finally commands Pikachu to blast them off once and for all with Thunderbolt at full power to destroy the robot. While the heroes celebrate, Birch is surprised, but believes what Delia had told them. Later, Tracey calls Charmander and Bulbasaur back, but Squirtle cries and comes to May. Birch realizes Squirtle wants to come with May, so May accepts this idea. May will also leave Bulbasaur, to learn from Ash's. Also, Ash will also be leaving Torkoal and Glalie as well, so it is going to be crowded.

Prof. Oak proceeds to give May and Ash new Kanto Pokédexes. Max also wants one, but Tracey gives him the PokéNav, with the info about the Battle Frontier facilities. Max searches for the nearest facility, and that one is near Cerulean City, so Misty will join them. Birch recites poetry, so Oak corrects him, being a veteran of poetry himself. The next day, Ash says goodbye to mom, who tells May, Max and Misty to take care of Ash. Suddenly, Ash's Phanpy approaches them, and Ash realizes Phanpy wants to come on his journey. They all go, so Ash's mom wishes him luck in this new journey. As they go, Brock comes, joining the gang as well.
