Ash and friends stop at a convenience store for some supplies for their journey to Valencia Island, and outside Ash participates in a contest and ends up winning blimp tickets to the island! What they don't know though, is that it was a setup by Team Rocket. However, before Team Rocket can plan anything, they lose control of the blimp, and Ash, Misty, and Brock also lose Togepi.
