Episode 1: Attack of the Prehistoric Pokemon
Our heroes approach Grampa Canyon, famous for the beautiful scenery of its valley. As they approach, however, they find wave upon wave of people also heading for Grampa Canyon. Carrying backpacks, pickaxes, etc. they are all dressed like explorers. Ash has no idea what is so special about the canyon, but he notices a familiar face among the crowd—that of his rival, Gary. According to Gary, fossils from an extinct Pokemon have been discovered, triggering an ancient Pokemon excavation boom. Team Rocket once again is causing trouble. This time lighting dynamite deep inside the canyon. Squirtle can't squirt out the fuse, and the dynamite blows. The blast opens a hole in the ground which Ash, Pikachu and Team Rocket get caught in. They end up getting burried deep under the Earth's crust. They then realize there not alone, but prehistoric Pokemon are with them! These Pokemon weren't dead, they were just sleeping. Ash, Pikachu and Team Rocket are attacked. Ash sends out his Charmeleon, but it didn't obey. Then they find one more Pokemon, Aerodactyl that picked up Ash carrying him, Charmeleon and Pikachu out of the cave. Charmeleon perches on a rock high above where Charmeleon can't attack. Aerodactyl continues to insult Charmeleon because it can't attack him. Charmeleon gets steaming mad, so mad that he evolves into Charizard. It flies off to battle Aerodactyl, Ash thinks that Charizard finally wants to obey him. But then is enflamed by Charizard and finds out not. Jigglypuff sings her slumber song, Aerodactyl drops Ash into mid air and Charizard catches him and lands safely on the ground. Ash rolls off Charizard onto an egg that would soon be Togepi. In the end Officer Jenny convinces everyone that no prehistoric Pokemon was seen.
