* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: Jessie attempts to steal Otoshi's Doduo. Later episodes established that a Pokéball will not work on those already belonging to another trainer. Interestingly, Marowak hits away the ball, leaving the audience not knowing what the result would have been otherwise.

* WhatTheHellHero: Marowak, to Otoshi. Not only because all of their hard work had gone to waste when his badges were stolen, but also because he was gullible enough to let Jesse trick him in the first place.

* DiggingYourselfDeeper: After stealing Otoshi's badges, losing them to Jessie, and causing Marowak to leave, Meowth suggests that he buy a ticket to the Pokémon League...as an audience member. Otoshi understandably gets very angry at this.


Added DiffLines:

* NoSympathy: When Meowth translates Marowak's declaration of leaving Otoshi, his reaction basically amounts to "tough luck kid!" His suggestion to buy a ticket to watch the League further rubs salt in the wound. Worse still is that Team Rocket was responsible for his predicament in the first place!

** Marowak is defeated by Pikachu's thunderbolt. Later on, keeping in line with the games, ground-type pokemon would be completely unaffected by electric attacks.

Ash, Brock and Misty finally leave Pallet Town and are on their way to the Pokémon League Tournament when they run into another trainer who's also headed for the Indigo Plateau. Unfortunately, this trainer has had all of his Pokémon Badges stolen from him and unless he gets eight more badges he won't be able to complete in the Tournament. Ash is unfairly challenged to a battle where the winner gets to keep all eight of Ash's Badges!
