As it turns out, the princess is Lady Erika, who apologizes to Red for the citizens' hostility, and the mischief of her Tangela. Upon her apology, Red challenges her to a Gym battle, which she accepts. However, she tells him that first he must prove his talent as a Trainer by capturing an. Unsure of what an Eevee is, Red decides to contact, but fails to reach him. Red does succeed in coming across, who shows him a picture of Eevee, and helps Red by contacting all his researcher friends for advice.

Meanwhile, at the Celadon City archery range, Erika is approached by one of her servants, asking her to rethink her plan of sending Red out to capture an Eevee.

Eevee seems to exude fire, water, and electricity all at once as it lies defeated, prompting concern from Red. Upon examining Eevee, Bill finds a gadget embedded in Eevee's ear that gave it the ability to switch between evolutions.
