#76 "Fire and Ice"

    The episode begins with Ash in his second match, in the rock field. His Squirtle beats a Nidorino, winning him the match. They're very happy. ^_^. Ash leaves his Pokémon eating at the hotel or wherever he's staying, and goes with Pikachu to find a meal for them, because they haven't eaten all day. Misty and Brock go after him, bringing Ash's Pokeballs, because they want Ash to take them to a Pokémon Center. But after Ash finally eats, all the Pokémon Centers are WAY crowded, from the Pokémon League.

    A blue-haired nurse tells them there is another Pokecenter they can go to, and takes them to a small building, where a Nurse Joy takes Ash's Pokémon and Pikachu. But the Joy turns out to be Jessie in disguise (amazing likeness, actually) and the building is their hot air balloon! They fly off with Ash's Pokémon, but Brock's Onix brings them back to earth. Then Ash goes back to the real Pokémon Center's queue.

    The next day, Ash fights hard, with his Kingler beating a Cloyster and then being defeated by a well-trained Arcanine. It's down to Pikachu vs Arcanine, and after a tough battle, Pikachu wins for Ash on the ice field.
