Piplup sits under a waterfall, stopping the evolution into Prinplup but collapses into the water. Dawn arrives and picks up Piplup, questioning his reason to not evolve. Piplup gets angry again and jumps out of Dawn's hands before firing {{m|Bubble Beam}} and running off. Dawn searches as she spots Piplup stuck in a web. She runs forward as an {{p|Ariados}} attacks her with {{m|Sludge Bomb}}. While she dodges, Piplup uses Bubble Beam to stall Ariados. Dawn runs forward as another Sludge Bomb grazes the top of her head, causing her to trip. The attack frees Piplup and sends him airborne, but Dawn quickly catches Piplup. However, multiple Ariados confront the two and all prepare to fire {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Just before the [[Move|attacks]] hit, Piplup jumps forward and uses Bide to take the attacks before retaliating, sending all the Ariados flying. Piplup collapses exhausted as Dawn picks up Piplup.

As Barry and Kenny continue searching, a {{m|Bullet Seed}} attack knocks down Prinplup and Empoleon before two mecha arms grab them. Empoleon and Prinplup try to use {{m|Hydro Cannon}} and Bubble Beam, but the hands spin and disorient them as Kenny and Barry notice a large [[Team Rocket's mechas|mecha]]. Meanwhile, Dawn carries Piplup to a lake as Piplup wakes up, Dawn thanking her Pokémon. Dawn mentions how [[DP001|a similar situation occurred]] when they first met and how Dawn [[First partner Pokémon|chose Piplup]]. Ash and Brock find Dawn and are relieved that they're okay. Suddenly, another mecha arm grabs Piplup as a giant Prinplup mecha shows up, revealing the captured Piplup evolutionary line. Team Rocket recites [[Team Rocket mottos|their motto]] but Barry cuts them off. Ash has {{AP|Pikachu}} fire {{m|Thunderbolt}}, but the mecha redirects the attack to harm Prinplup and Empoleon.

The mecha deploys tank treads and proceeds to escape, but Dawn spots Piplup and decides to run after the mecha, getting on the side. Dawn notices a hatch up top and gets in that way. While Dawn demands her Pokémon back, Piplup destroys the ventilation gates with {{m|Peck}} and Bubble Beam, getting into the control room with Dawn. {{MTR}} {{pkmn2|Talking|translates}} Piplup's talk as he plans to take them down and that he wants to protect Dawn just like the first time, revealing that past events have motivated him to stay the way he is. Dawn accepts Piplup's decision and has him attack with {{m|Whirlpool}}, destroying the mecha and freeing everyone. Outside, Team Rocket gets up and summons {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}} and {{TP|James|Carnivine}}. They attack with {{m|Poison Tail}} and {{m|Vine Whip}}, but Piplup's Bubble Beam stops both in their tracks. Piplup starts to glow again as he tries to stop the evolution, leaving him and Dawn vulnerable. [[James]] wants Piplup to not evolve to maintain the family, but [[Jessie]] opts to let it and instead present the boss with Empoleon triplets. Seviper and Carnivine rush to attack the defenseless Piplup, but Pikachu's Thunderbolt stops both Pokémon, Ash and the others arriving on site. Piplup is still immobile as Seviper and Carnivine attack again with Bullet Seed and Poison Tail, but Pikachu defends with Thunderbolt. Piplup manages to stop evolving and attacks with Whirlpool, sending Team Rocket flying away.
