Added DiffLines:

** Goldeen also gets a chance to actually win a battle, against James's grass type Victreebel no less. After exclusively suffering from the WorfEffect or simply flopping around uselessly, Goldeen finally proves that it can put up a fight.

* SchmuckBanquet: Subverted. When Team Rocket tries to lure Misty into their booby traps with all kinds of goodies (see Skewed Priorities below), Misty doesn't take the bait - not because she realizes that it's a trap, but because she doesn't want to waste time helping Ash and Tracey.

* EvenEvilHasStandards: James and Meowth are a lot better at gratitude than Jessie, who thought Ash and Tracey recovering from illness was ''the perfect time'' to catch Pikachu.



* {{Wangst}}: In-universe. Jessie clearly exaggerates her illness, but still has the energy to assault James.

!!Tropes Are:
* BadassAdorable: Poliwag, with Misty's help, laid the smackdown on Wheezing.
* BecauseYouWereNiceToMe: Poliwag helps Misty get the weed because she protected it from Team Rocket, and becomes her Pokemon as well.

* NiceGirl: Misty, showing never-ending concern for her friends, Team Rocket, and a Poliwag.
* PetTheDog: James and Meowth are honestly touched by Misty's generosity, and drag Jessie away from battling Ash, [[ExitVillainStageLeft calling it quits for the day]].
* SkewedPriorities: Defied. Despite James and Meowth putting everything a girl could want in her path (nice food, dresses, and makeup), Misty ignores it to help [[TrueCompanions Ash and Tracey]].
* ThrowTheDogABone: Misty gives some of the weed to James and Meowth, recognizing they were trying to help Jessie, and they do deserve a break.
* [[UngratefulBastard Ungrateful Bitch]]: Jessie shows nothing but contempt for James and Meowth despite trying to help her through her illness. Averted with James and Meowth, who don't have it in their hearts to attack Ash after Misty showed them generosity, and leave them alone for the time being.
* {{Wangst}}: In-universe. Jessie clearly exaggerates her illness, but still has the energy to assault James.
