When Ash first gets to the gym, he meets Max, who is pretending to be the gym leader. Max knows a lot about Pokémon and can't wait until he's old enough to become a trainer. Then May shows up and reveals that Max is her brother and the Gym Leader is her father. Norman, the Fym Leader, finally appears, but it order to have a Gym Battle Ash needs three Pokémon. He does not want to rely on his pokémon at Professor Oak's lab, and decides to ask Norman for an unofficial battle. Meanwhile, Team Rocket is planning on taking May's Torchic.
