Summary: Our gang stumble upon a huge estate, they leave but not before a Growlithe with a Snubbull on its tail runs into them. Apparently, Snubbull ran away from her owner, but she isn’t happy that she is going home. The gang is invited to lunch, and take a long escalator to the main house of Madam Muchmoney. They got shown all of Snubbull’s spots in the estate, a playroom and a bubble bath, but Brock is skeptical of Snubbull’s happiness. Snubbull won’t eat any of the house food, but it does eat Brock’s popcorn balls. James talks about his boredom in his upper crust childhood. Snubbull falls in love with Meowth’s tail, and the gang run into Team Rocket. Jessie throws Snubbull into Madam Muchmoney’s arms, and we get a surprise appearance from Weezing. Madam Muchmoney buried the lead, Snubbull is getting married to another Snubbull, and she is trying to pull a James so she doesn’t have to marry Winthrop. Team Rocket uses Meowth for bait to attract Snubbull, but before they can use this plan Madam Muchmoney’s Snubbull and Winthrop are forced to attend a wedding meeting. At the meeting Brock intervenes, and Team Rocket cuffs Ash and the gang and take Snubbull. Meowth makes too much ruckus with Snubbull on his tail, and our crew is able to find Team Rocket. Heracross gets a good snack before attacking Team Rocket, and Snubbull finishes the job with the encouragement of Madam Muchmoney under Brock’s guidance.
