On their way to [[Lake Valor]], site of the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]], {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} are {{pkmn|training|practicing}} for their upcoming challenges, while {{an|Brock}} is preparing a meal. Dawn starts off with having {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} use {{m|Whirlpool}}. She then praises Piplup for its Whirlpool. Brock is kneeling by a river preparing to clean some {{Berries}} when he sees a boat floating down the river with [[Marley|a girl]] fast asleep inside. As he attempts to wake her while walking alongside the boat, he realizes that it is headed straight for a huge waterfall. He starts yelling at her to try and wake her, but to no avail. He then wades into the water, grabs the boat, and blocks it from falling.

He then wades into the water, grabs the boat, and blocks it from falling.


Brock is a couple of feet before the waterfall when he notices that there is a rope in the boat. He calls out {{TP|Brock|Happiny}}, who proceeds to toss the entire boat and Brock onto the shore. Ash and Dawn come running up asking if he is okay. He says that he is and directs their attention to the girl, who suddenly opens her eyes and gets up. She asks about her basket, which is still in the boat with her. She then notices Brock and asks why he is all wet. Ash tells her that she was about to go over a waterfall. Dawn becomes agitated by the girl's passive attitude and tells her that she should thank Brock for saving her, but Brock shrugs it off. The girl exits the boat, introduces herself as Marley, and asks Dawn and Ash who they are. Ash and Dawn are taken aback by this and quickly introduce themselves and their Pokémon. Brock asks Marley why she was sleeping in the boat; she tells them that she was hiding and had accidentally fallen asleep. She also explains that there was a group of "very bad people" after her. She then turns to Brock and asks him to protect her while she goes to the other side of [[Mt. Coronet]]. Ash and Dawn interject by saying that she cannot just expect them to just say yes and bring her over the mountain. However, she responds that she wasn't asking them, angering Ash.

Brock eventually agrees to the offer, much to Ash and Dawn's distress. As the four are walking along a trail, Brock asks Marley where she will be heading after crossing over the mountain, and she says that she is headed to a very secret garden. Piplup's stomach soon starts to growl, so Brock starts getting out Pokémon food. Marley stresses how she was in a hurry and is reassured by Brock that it will not take long. Marley watches Piplup and {{AP|Pikachu}} happily eating before she suddenly announces that she is going for a walk, surprising everyone.

Meanwhile, Marley opens her picnic basket and lets out a dirty, injured {{p|Shaymin}}, which she unsuccessfully tries to feed. Eventually, the others search for her and find her with Shaymin. Brock comments on how weak Shaymin looks, and Marley says that it has been that way since the morning. When Brock examines it, Shaymin coughs up gas. Brock informs Marley that Shaymin has been exposed to a poison of some kind. Brock then explains how Shaymin can use a move called {{m|Seed Flare}}. Marley then recalls Shaymin inhaling a {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}'s {{m|Haze}} earlier that morning. Brock feeds Shaymin a [[Pecha Berry]] to rid it of the poison. Shaymin coughs up smoke and then explodes in a huge plume of black smoke. When the smoke clears, Shaymin looks completely healed. Brock then feeds it a [[Sitrus Berry]] to help it regain strength. After eating, it jumps up and utters a cry of happiness. Marley comments on how Brock is almost like [[Nurse Joy]]. Ash tells Marley that Brock wants to be the world's best Pokémon breeder. Dawn asks Marley why she keeps Shaymin in a picnic basket, and Marley says it was because the "bad people" are after Shaymin.

It is soon revealed that {{TRT}} are the "bad people" who are after Shaymin. They were walking along a path when {{MTR}} spotted Shaymin. The trio immediately decided to capture it due to its rarity, but Shaymin escaped and encountered Marley, begging her to help it. When the trio confronted Marley, they started reciting their {{motto}}, but she and Shaymin slipped away while they were distracted. However, they were quickly found, prompting Marley to send out her {{p|Arcanine}}, which used {{m|Flamethrower}} on Team Rocket and sent them blasting off.

Meanwhile, Marley tells the others about the time she tried to release Shaymin soon after the encounter with Team Rocket. However, it returned to her during the night, and she then decided to accompany it to the {{si|Gracidea}} Flower Garden, where she assumed Shaymin was naturally headed to. The next day, they were ambushed by Team Rocket, and Jessie sent out her Seviper, which used Haze. Shaymin started to suck all of the smoke into its body and used Seed Flare, giving it and Marley enough time to find shelter on the boat Brock found them in. As Ash and Dawn promise to protect her and Shaymin from harm, they come up to a tunnel. Marley announces that the Gracidea Garden is just beyond the tunnel. As they walk through the tunnel, Pikachu and Piplup trip on a sleeping {{p|Shroomish}}, which uses {{m|Poison Powder}} on them. Shaymin sucks the poisonous smoke in with Seed Flare and then releases it, scaring off the Shroomish. It then heals the poisoned Piplup and Pikachu with {{m|Aromatherapy}}. Marley later points out that they are almost at the end of the tunnel, and that there will be a huge Gracidea Flower Garden at the other end.

When the gang reaches the Garden, they realize that all of the Gracidea flowers have died. Ash suggests combing the dead garden in search of one that is still in bloom. Eventually, Brock sees a sprout, but it is on a huge rock. Team Rocket then bursts out in their giant [[Team Rocket's mechas|Mecha Caterpie]], which uses a {{m|String Shot}}. Ash commands Pikachu to use {{m|Thunderbolt}} and Dawn has Piplup use {{m|Bubble Beam}} against it; the attacks collide and explode in midair. Immediately afterwards, Ash brings out {{AP|Torterra}} and has it use {{m|Energy Ball}}, which knocks Team Rocket down. As Team Rocket's robot starts crawling towards the gang, Brock suggests having {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} use {{m|Ice Beam}} underneath Team Rocket, so that they have no traction. When that is done, and Team Rocket is immobilized, Ash has Torterra use {{m|Rock Climb}} and Dawn has Piplup use Whirlpool. The attacks land dead center and send Team Rocket spinning away. In response, Meowth engages the mecha's second stage, a {{p|Butterfree}} mecha. They begin charging a "Robo-Hyper {{m|Solar Beam}}", which they shoot at the ground, knocking Ash and his friends off their feet.

After the smoke clears, Marley looks for Shaymin, who she cannot find, but Brock points out that it is climbing the rock so it can get to the Gracidea and transform into [[Shaymin (Pokémon)#Form data|Sky Forme]]. Meanwhile, Team Rocket dodges Pikachu and Piplup's attacks again and then starts charging another Solar Beam. However, Shaymin reaches the Gracidea and is exposed to its pollen, triggering its transformation. Once it is done, Shaymin jumps into Marley's arms for a quick hug, then flies through the antennae of the mecha Butterfree, cutting them to shreds. The trio then pursues Shaymin, but it is too fast for them. Team Rocket then uses "Robo-Hyper Gust", which knocks Shaymin off course, but it recovers and uses {{m|Air Slash}}, which cuts the mecha in half and sends Team Rocket blasting off again. Exhausted, Shaymin falls into the patch of ice created by Buneary and transforms back into [[List of Pokémon with form differences#Shaymin|Land Forme]], due to Shaymin reverting Forme when frozen. As the gang wonders what to do next because that was the last Gracidea flower, Two more Shaymin appear. A Gracidea bud magically blooms right in front of them, and the Shaymin use it to transform. Once transformed, they take to the skies and fly in circles. Marley tells Shaymin that it was time for it to go on its flower bearing journey. Though reluctant, Shaymin agrees, and Marley says that she hopes to see Shaymin again. Shaymin promptly flies away with its friends, but not without using telepathy to thank Marley.
