On one summer day, Pikachu and the other Pokémon owned by Ash and his friends come to Pokémon Land, a park built especially for Pokémon to spend their holiday. They are all excited. However, after a while of their coming through the gate, Togepi is hungry, and has a unique way of showing it(crybaby). Startled, yet wanting him to stop crying, Pikachu pulls his cheeks to make a funny face. Squirtle also tries, though in vain. Bulbsaur finds an apple ripe on a branch of a tree then, and shoots leaves to cut it off. The fruit drops, and rolls to stop right before Psyduck. He takes it, and then, to Pikachu's surprise, eats it. Togepi weeps, his cry even louder, until Bulbasaur sings and rocks it to sleep. Pikachu is relieved, but Raichu, Cubone, Marril, and Snubble, pass near them, chatting loudly. Pikachu asks the group to be quiet, making them angry. Togepi ends up waking up and Squirtle goes to back Pikacu up. As Bulbasaur joins, two groups glare at each other, ready to fight. Pikachu tries hard to soothe them. Togepi totters to a river valley, and onto a log over it. Pikachu turns pale, and follows onto it, crying, "Pipipi (means 'Togepi')." The log moves suddenly. Pikachu is startled, while Togepi is pleased. It rolls down the valley in a high speed, throwing Pikachu into the river. He looks around quickly for Togepi, finding him at a side of the valley. He sighs, relieved. Pikachu returns, carrying Togepi on his back, he gives another sigh to see that the two groups are still fighting. They decide to have Squirtle and Marril have a swimming match. Although interfered by some of other Pokémon, both swim with a great guts, and Marril wins. But their fight doesn't finish, for they are not satisfied yet. Raichu's electric sparks crackle, hitting the ground near Togepi. Pikachu dashes near him, shielding him. A spark hits Pikachu. He stiffens his body, shocked. Raichu and other Pokémon of his group laugh. Pikachu looks back, his eyes lifted, and burning with rage. He goes close to Raichu, glaring at him. Raichu stares back. A tense clash of electric bolts is between them for a minute... and they dashes out suddenly. They run and run and run, down pathes, through a river, up a waterfall, and through bushes, all the while, crashing into other Pokémon on their way; Meowth, who dozes on a grassland, and Charizard are included. Charizard flares up, and dashes after them, but two mice either don't care, or don't notice. once he catches up and passes them, Charizard flaps it wings and knock Pikachu and Raichu onto a Snorlax, who rolls over on them. Still not satisfied, it divbombs the Pokémon and whips the wind up around them. The result? He crashes throug play equipment and gets kis head stuck in a small hole. Puzzlement are in minds of monsters, except for Raichu's group, including Charizard. The hole is too small for his head, and he cannot pull it out no matter how many times he tries to pull back. All of the Pokémon tie his leg tight with the end of a long and thick rope, grip it and pull it with all their might. They tries over and over, but Charizard's head is still in the hole. Tears fills his eyes, as he wonders if he'll ever get out. Raichu and his group members watch them, keeping a short distance. Pikachu goes near them, and asks, "Pika pika. Pikapi, chu. Pikachu. (Help us. Please)" After a brief discussion amongst themselves, they agree to help, and go to take the rope, except Cubone. They tries harder, and Charizard's head is almost out, yet still in. Tears rolls down his cheeks. Cubone's hands grip at the point an inch before Pikachu's on the rope. Pikachu is delighted. They tries once more, much harder. Finally, Charizard are pulled back, his head out the hole. Two groups are now friends. They repair places which have been destroyed by their fight, and play together the rest of the day. In evening, Ash and his friends come to take Pikachu. As he calls Pikachu, a big smile is on Pikachu's face. "Pikapi! (Ash!)" Pikachu runs straight into his chest.
