Our heroes manages to get out of Ilex Forest and are near the Pokemon Daycare, a Miltank, Smeargle, and Slugma were nearby, being abandoned. Ash feeds them and cheers them up, the three joining the team. Ash scans them.

Ash found out that their old trainer had a brother that's a breeder, thanks to their moves. Smeargle said that his trainer only had him for two days and decided he was useless. Miltank was defending Slugma and Smeargle from their verbally abusive trainer and thus was also abandoned. "You poor things. I promise I won't ever do that." Ash said, clearly disgusted about their old trainer.

Ash smiles and returns them to their pokeballs, going to the daycare and signs up for the race, which was tomorrow, so he decides to train.

After about an hour of training, Azurill and Wooper evolves into Marill and Quagsire. Ash scans them, glad that they had learned some new moves thanks to the other pokemon.

Ash wipes his forehead, smiling a bit.
The next day at the beginning of the race, Ash has Bayleef to help, but he sees Gary and his Arcanine. Ash sighs in annoyance. Gary notices Ash and goes to him and Ash's Bayleef, Eevee, and Pikachu.

"Ashy Boy, didn't know you got here.
What do you think you're doing here?" Gary mocked, Bayleef growls at Gary. Ash gets Bayleef to stop and looks at him. "I'm just here for the race. I'm assuming you're here for the same reason?" Ash said, Gary smirks and brags with the words "Of course. Arcanine will definitely win."

The daycare man approaches to the racers. "Attention everyone! Here are the rules! In order to win, we hid egg replicas around the fields, you must collect more than your opponents. You are not allowed to battle each other. If you order your pokemon to attack any of the racer's or their pokemon, you will automatically be disqualified! Your pokemon will be the runners. Be sure to stay on your skateboards at all times. You aren't allowed to ride on your pokemon either. But you may have a smaller pokemon ride on their back or on your head or shoulder, but the no attacking others still applies to them.
Now on your marks..Get set..GO!"

The racers start going, many pokemon and trainers speeding into the dirt road by the fields. Ash has Pikachu and Eevee on his shoulders, who were holding on. Ash knows that the Chikorita line aren't the fastest, so he trains his slower pokemon to be very fast, so she zips past many of the racers. Gary and Ash were collect more and more of the eggs, eventually being tied.

Ash finds the last egg that was hidden in a bush, grabbing it, and Bayleef speeding to the finish line, setting the eggs on the table, Gary comes back with the eggs he collected.
After the other racers come back, the daycare man counts all of the eggs everyone collected.

"The runner up is Gary Oak with 16 eggs!" Gary was shocked. "And the winner is Ash Ketchum with 17 eggs!"
A round of applause was heard as the daycare lady gives Ash his eggs and says "Congratulations Ash. Take good care of the little ones."
Ash nods and thanks the couple.

Ash sees Team Rocket stealing pokemon eggs from the daycare building and brings out Larvitar, Hoothoot, Ledyba, and Spinarak.

"Ariados, Noctowl, get the eggs back with Psychic." Ash ordered, the two newly evolved pokemon obeys, the eggs floating to them. Meowth notices this. "Hey! Give those back!" A Wobbuffet pops out of Jessie's pokeball belt with a "Wobbuffet!" Ash and the others were surprised Jessie has a Wobbuffet. Ugh! This stupid Wobbuffet is so annoying!

"Oh thank goodness the eggs are okay!" The daycare lady exclaimed, giving Ash a TM for Helping Hand.
