Goh enters his new Magikarp in a Magikarp High Jump Tournament, but the fish has become too large and heavy to jump effectively. To solve this, he utilizes training tapes created by Pokémon World High Jump Champion Kasuking, along with a unique secret technique of his own invention. In the second story, Ash and Goh visit an island habitat for Slowpoke. They encounter a Slowking that enjoys eating udon, leading Ash to share his ramen. The Slowking is so pleased that it trades its Shellder for the meal. However, when the Shellder attaches itself to Ash's head, he transforms into a character known as Ash-king. This episode features two separate eleven-minute segments and includes voice work by comedian Toshiaki Kasuga as Kasukarp.
