[One moonlit night, Ash and his friends have gotten lost in a forest]
Oh, man. We're stuck now.
And now that the sun's gone down, it's getting pretty cold, too.
Yeah, and I don't see the Pokémon Centre on the PokéNav.
Those clouds are looking mean. We'd better find some shelter and fast before the storm's on top of us.
Huh? [Sees the clouds which are covering up the moon]
As Ash continues his quest to become master of the Battle Frontier, it seems our heroes have come across a proverbial bump in the road.
Wha? Hey, what's up, Pikachu?
Pika, Pika. [Goes running off]
Wait! Pikachu, come back here! Where are you goin'?
[The title card comes up]
[voiceover] Fear Factor Phony!
[Soon, Ash and his friends have found a ghost town]
Whoa, what a weird place to put a town.
Well, whoever put it here must agree with you 'cause they all got up and left.
Wow, look! It's a ghost town.
[gasps] You're saying ghosts live here?
Not quite. It's called a ghost town 'cause no one's living in it anymore. Get it, May?
Oh, of course I knew that, Max.
[Team Rocket are looking inside the entrance to a mine shaft]
Zip zero, not a ghost in sight.
It would help if there were such things as ghosts in the first place.
[Then, two eerie pink eyes appear from inside the tunnel]
[The pink eyes are revealed to be coming from a Haunter which appears]
What a pretty purple colour.
GHGhostly Haunter
Ghostly, ghostly!
[The ghost sticks its tongue out and roars, making Team Rocket scream]
[Inside one of the ghost town's buildings, Ash and his friends have just overheard the scream]
[Max and May shudder]
You think it's the ghost?
[reacting] Uh? Uh, right! [He looks out of a window, but nothing is happening] I guess I'm just hearing things. [Then, it starts to rain] Huh? Hey, it's startin' to rain, guys. Now what?
Well, we can't leave here right now. I guess we'll just have to spend the night.
You wanna spend the night in this place?
[determined] Sure, we'll all be fine. We're here together.
