Inside, they meet a Pokémon Breeder named Suzie, after she finishes gently massaging a Chansey for a customer. However, Misty quickly shifts her attention to a Vulpix that is fast asleep on a chair. Ash scans it with his Pokédex while Misty approaches the sleeping Pokémon. Misty, enthralled by the cute Vulpix, picks it up while offering numerous compliments. However, Vulpix, annoyed by the interruption of its nap, fires a Flamethrower at Misty’s face before falling back asleep. Brock, who has been unusually silent up to this point, suddenly blurts out that he wants to become Suzie’s pupil. Everyone is shocked, especially Suzie, who explains she does not have time for students due to her busy workload. After Ash asks, Brock explains that Suzie is a highly accomplished and popular Pokémon Breeder. Misty asks about Vulpix, but Ash cuts Brock off before he can go into detail about how terrific a model the Pokémon is.
