Summery: Ash, Misty and Brock take a walk down Scissor Street, also known as Breeder's Lane, trying to find a salon that Brock is looking for. Along the way, they pass Salon Rocké, a beauty parlor that puts Pokémon in outrageously bad yet trendy fasions. They find the place Brock's looking for, a salon run by world-champion Pokémon breeder, Susan. An incredibly tense Brock shocks everyone by asking Susan if he could be her student, but Susan doesn't take students(man!). Also in the salon is Susan's pet Vulpix (a fire-breathing fox Pokémon with six tails) which doesn't like to be touched by strangers, as Misty found out the hard way. They decide to have lunch and talk about Salon Rocké. Susan is surprised to see Vulpix eat some of Brock's home-made Pokémon food, since she only eats food that Susan has prepared for her. Susan tells Ash and friends that Salon Rocké has started a fad. Trainers should care about what Pokémon is like on the inside, but lately trainers has been flocking to Salon Rocké for the latest fashion. Ash agrees its whats on the inside that counts, a Pokémon's personality and abilities, but Misty thinks whats on the outside is important too. They get into an arguement and Ash suggests that if Misty's so sure, she should take Psyduck (who's definately no fashion model)(HaHa!!) down to Salon Rocké. Misty releases Psyduck and swears to return as the cutest things Ash has ever seen. Susan says that these days trainers are going for looks instead of substance. Brock has a plan: give customers beauty and substance. Pretty soon, people are flocking to Susan's salon to see Susan's seminar on Pokémon health and beauty. If a Pokémon feels good on the inside, it'll look good on the outside.  Vulpix Meanwhile, Misty finds that the line outside, Salon Rocké has gotten surprisingly short surprisingly fast. After getting a fashion make-over, Misty discovers that Salon Rocké is a frod for Team Rocket (kinda obvious with the name and a large picture of Ekans and Koffing out front! oh!) She gets tied up and commands Psyduck to attack, but the Migrate-surplused duck has already made his way to Susan's salon, where she's having Ash demonstrate how to massage a Pikachu, and tells Pikachu who tells Ash that Misty's in trouble. Ash and Brock storm into Salon Rocké to find Misty looking absolutely ridiculous (actually, she likes her new look(weirdo!!) and being held captive by Team Rocket. Ash refuses a ransom of Pikachu, and James introduces Ash and Brock to Salon Rocké's combat platform/fashion runway. After saying Salon Rocké's fashion-inspired and Team Rocket parodied motto (Jesse and James are really into fashion), Jesse and James unleashes a tutu-wearing Koffing and an Ekans that looks like a christmas tree. Ash and Brock defend with knocked for a loop and retaliates with a devastating Thundershock and Geodude give Ekans the seismic toss! Balerina Koffing gives the heroic Pokémon a sludge-attack make-over, effectively blinding them! Ekans and Koffing move in for the kill, but trip on their ridiculous outfits and fall on their faces. A sports jacket clad Meowth rallies his Pokémon compadres and Susan enters the fray with Vulpix. The cute little Vulpix dishes out a fire-tornado of justice and Team Rocket blasts off again(didn't see that one!! just kidding!!). Susan has realized that she still has much to learn, so she still can't accept Brock as her pupil. They become friendly rivals and Susan gives Brock Vulpix. Ash, Brock and Misty stride off into the sunset and Team Rocket gets chased by rabid, refund-hungry and generally unsatisfied customers.
