Deep synopsis

Somewhere in the mountains, Ash is actually training for the Pokemon League by battling Brock and his Vulpix. Pikachu prepares an Electric Attack while Vulpix is about to use a Flamethrower. They are about to let loose when Jigglypuff jumps between them. Ash and Brock tell their Pokemon to hold off, and they both shoot off to the side, exploding a section of the cliff. When the dust settles, Ash and his friends discover that they've uncovered some sort of temple. Brock picks up a rock and finds some sort of artifact hidden under it. They all look at it until someone snatches it out of Brock's hands. They turn to see a group of archaeologists who heard the explosion. A young woman shows the artifact to someone she calls "Professor" and he says that the thing proves her hypothesis. Brock visibly likes the girl, whose name is Eve, but she is too interested in the artifact. Meanwhile, Ash and Misty have no idea what Eve and the professor are talking about.

Up the cliff a ways, Team Rocket sits, viewing everything happening through their binoculars. They talk about how it would be nice to steal some valuable artifacts from this temple. Eve notices the puzzled look on Ash's and Misty's faces, and takes them inside the trailer. There, they find a table covered with assorted artifacts. Misty thinks aloud how she remembers reading that ancient people used to build temples to honor Pokemon. Ash asks her what the city was called, and she tells him that it was Pokemopolis and that it was destroyed in a storm, then disappeared. Brock comments that the people believed that Pokemon were symbols of natures power, then adds that maybe this is the location of Pokemopolis. Eve excitedly expresses her hopes that she hopes it is. Suddenly, the professor runs in with a spoon in his hand. After referring to Eve as "Doctor", he tells her that the spoon was near where the other artifact sitting. She mumbles to herself that these may be the keys to the "great two powers of destruction" and Ash and his friends again have no idea what she's talking about. Ash asks her why the professor called her a doctor, and the professor tells her that it's because she got her Ph.D. at eight-years old. Misty sighs, saying that when she was eight, she was still afraidof doctors. Eve asks them not to think she's some superstar or something and she waves the spoon around. The other artifact glows, but only Pikachu notices...............................................
