This week, the gang puts on the show, with the Pokemon acting as the peanut gallery.

This would originally be the point where Ash would get Chimchar in the real show, but since Ash already has Chimchar in the remix, I decided to assume the cast all got Soothe Bells and other items, plus Ash learn about the Veilstone Gym, offscreen.

As much as I wanted to show the entire play, I decided to focus on the Pokemon as the peanut gallery so I could show their reactions to their humans onstage. All of them are very well aware of what a play is, and they were all watching the rehearsals of the two previous episodes. I felt it would be fun to see how all of the main heroes' teams would interact together.

Dawn's line to introduce the tournament is a subtle Disney reference--"Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls" is how every Disney park around the world prefaces their announcements. I felt this would be appropriate because Dawn, as Maid Marian, is introducing something exciting (the tournament).

Next time, the gang has a scary encounter with the ghost Pokemon Spiritomb!
