Kenny built off his own words too not just Leona's and he technically cut the story off by getting up and calling Dawn her new nickname in the flashback.

Dawn goes on to tell them a story of something that happened when she was in kindergarten. She, {{si|Kenny}}, and [[Leona]] had been put in charge of taking care of the Plusle and Minun at their school - feeding them, changing their water, and cleaning their living area. One day, however, Dawn was chasing after the two Pokémon while Kenny and Leona were diligently attending to their duties. Her two childhood friends quickly got irritated by her fooling around, and tell her to do her job. Dawn, finally catching Plusle and Minun in her arms, insists that she ''is'' helping, by keeping hold of them so that they don't get in the way of changing their food and cleaning. The Cheering Pokémon in her arms yell out in protest and struggle to get free, but Dawn scolds them, telling them that it isn't time for playing. | Dawn goes on to tell them a story of something that happened when she was in kindergarten.

Kenny realizes that the Pokémon don't like being handled in such a way, but Dawn insists that there's nothing to worry about - she's great friends with Plusle and Minun! She hugs them closer to prove her point, and the two Pokémon, finally reaching their limit, unleash an Electric attack to get her to let go. The attack works, and as Plusle and Minun scamper off, Dawn looks completely stunned, her hair sticking out on end and glittering with static electricity. Leona asks if Dawn is okay, to which Dawn weakly answers the affirmative. Kenny points out how Dawn's hair is sparkling like a diamond, Leona adds that it reminds her of dandruff ({{tt|ピカピカしている|pikapika shiteiru}}). Building off Leona's words, Kenny declares that he's going to call her Diamond Dandruff from that day on or {{tt|Dee Dee|Pikari}} for short. | Kenny realizes that the Pokémon don't like being handled in such a way, but Dawn insists that there's nothing to worry about - she's great friends with Plusle and Minun!

In the middle of the story, Kenny suddenly stands up and cuts the story off by shouting out Dawn's new nickname; their classmates begin whispering and laughing at the nickname, causing Dawn to start crying in utter humiliation. | ||
Returning to present time, Ash, Brock, and Piplup finally understand the origin of Dawn's nickname. Dawn still doesn't understand why the Plusle and Minun had attacked her, though, and as she's mulling this over her friends begin to laugh. She gets mad at them for laughing, but Ash insists that it's funny, as Piplup continues to laugh especially hard. Brock clears his throat then and explains that Pokémon never attack without reason. Ash agrees, pointing out that it was because Dawn had been chasing after Plusle and Minun. Though shocked that it was her fault, Dawn realizes that it must be true, and looks upset. Ash insists that she doesn't have to worry, though, and that she shouldn't let it bother her. Brock adds that there are often such stories that, though they might have been a big incident at the time, aren't really such a big deal. Dawn gloomily agrees, and Ash encourages her to beat Ursula in the contest the next day, in order to overcome the past. Piplup cheers in agreement, and Brock adds that Ash is right, it's a great chance to cut off regrets from the past! A bit taken aback, Dawn says that that's a bit much, but agrees that it's a great chance, and assures them that there's no need to worry! | Returning to present time, Ash, Brock, and Piplup finally understand the origin of Dawn's nickname.
