As they attempt to capture Pikachu, Ash arrives just in time, leading them through a sewer escape. Piplup unleashes Whirlpool to send Team Rocket packing. As Ash navigates the dark tunnels, he stumbles upon the Luxio and its crew, who stole the food to help a stranded Wailmer trapped in the sewers!
