A raging whirlpool whisks our heroes to top-secret Pinkan Island, a magical place where sheer cliffs and special berries have created a plethora of pink Pokemon. Tracey's Pokemon watching skills are put to quite a test, while Ash's attempts at observing lead to trouble for both his friends and a feisty pink Rhyhorn. Officer Jenny and Professor Oak explain that people are not allowed on the island since poachers would love to get their hand on the pokemon. However, Team Rocket is already ready to launch their plan to capture the pink pokemon.
