Soon, all three Audino walk away and meet up, resulting in the heroes all being together again, meaning the past three minutes were completely pointless. Everyone follows the Audino, but the tracking devices suddenly fail. Afraid of losing the Audino even though they are literally twenty feet behind them, Jenny has two of the Audino restrained, but the third rounds a corner into an alley, and they find the tracking device on the ground. By the way, from what we learn later, the Audino losing the tracking device makes no sense.
Cilan decides that whoever is stealing the Audino is using sound waves that humans can't hear using logic so bizarre and shaky that even after having heard it I don’t remember it, so Ash sends out Roggenrola because it’s got good hearing and needs some screen time. The Audino start walking off again, so the heroes follow Roggenrola follow the Audino. The Audino go to a cliff outside town with a ladder up it, and the heroes follow by having Solosis lift them with psychic. The Audino try to stop the heroes again, but Christy's Gothia lifts them across a chasm.
Roggenrola leads the heroes to an abandoned wind farm - we learn that Team Rocket is responsible. They're using a machine that lures Audino and jams tracking devices, built by Doctor Monocle, to steal the Audino to study their ears to build advanced radar. You would think he could more easily buy an Audino legally rather than build a machine like this, but I guess maybe he had a spare one laying around and gave it to Jessie and James. Also: why would he need more than one Audino.
The heroes appear, and Jenny arrests Team Rocket by telling them that they're under arrest. Fortunately, Doyle's Solosis and Christy's Gothita fight Team Rocket's pokemon while Jenny does literally nothing. During the battle, Ash accidentally destroys the Audino capture machine, freeing the pokemon. Team Rocket straps on their jetpacks and escape, and in fairness, Jenny does try to stop them by running at them very slowly and telling them to stop. Christy and Doyle ask Jenny whose pokemon was most helpful, and she tells them Roggenrola.
