Continuing their journey to Nimbasa City, Ash and the gang decide to 
stop in town. They notice Bianca is running around and she crashes into 
Ash, throwing him into the water channel. While Ash is drying his 
clothes, Bianca shows a poster announcing a fishing contest for which 
the prize is a golden fishing rod. Cilan loses control of himself, and 
announces that he is a Fishing connoisseur and they all decide to enter 
the contest, unknowingly being staged by Team Rocket. They sign up in 
Castelia City and are issued their Fishing Balls and are told to choose 
their fishing rods, but Cilan has brought his own and he helped Bianca 
choose one for beginners level. They begin to fish, but Bianca does not 
know how to fish. She casts her rod around wildly, eventually hooking 
onto Ash's jacket. Cilan decides to give the gang a crash course in 
fishing, during which he catches a blue-striped Basculin. He sends 
Pansage out to battle it, and after some missed shots, Pansage weakens 
the Basculin and allows Cilan to catch it. Iris tries to fish for a 
Pokémon, but she gets bored when nothing has taken the bait. She decides
 to instead use her hands to catch a Pokémon, and lifts a blue Basculin 
out of the water only to receive a yellow card for her actions. Bianca 
pulls in a female Frillish which begins to constrict Ash. Bianca scans 
Frillish on her Pokédex. Cilan and Iris try to help only to get pulled 
into its grip. Ash orders Pikachu to use Thunderbolt on them to free 
them. Team Rocket leave only to find that their boat is pushed away. As 
everybody realizes that something suspicious is going on they reveal 
that they are actually Team Rocket. They begin to battle, and when the 
want to escape with captured Pokémon, they realize that the same 
Frillish has opened them up and freed all of the Pokémon. Emptyhanded, 
Team Rocket escapes in their jetpacks. Cilan tries to find the golden 
rod only to find it was made out of wood. They part with Bianca and 
continue to Nimbasa City.
