On the way to the [[Battle Arena]], [[May's Munchlax]] falls ill, even refusing to eat. An elderly couple approach the group, and {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are surprised to see the old man has a {{p|Mime Jr.}}.

Meanwhile, [[James's Chimecho]] is also sick. James orders it to use {{m|Heal Bell}} on itself, but Chimecho is too weak to do so. He scoops Chimecho up and looks over the horizon for a [[Pokémon Center]], but all he sees is a castle. However, this happens to be one of his family's vacation homes. He runs there with [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} in tow. He calls for the castle’s residents, [[Nanny and Pop-Pop]], and they are very happy to see him.

He scoops Chimecho up and looks over the horizon for a [[Pokémon Center]], but all he sees is a castle. However, this happens to be one of his family's vacation homes. He runs there with [[Jessie]] and {{MTR}} in tow. He calls for the castle’s residents, [[Nanny and Pop-Pop]], and they are very happy to see him. He explains that his Chimecho is sick, and Nanny takes it in her arms. The couple looks back to see Jessie and Meowth, and they assume that Jessie is James's wife, and they congratulate him. James is shocked that they would think this, and he imagines what it would be like to be married to Jessie - doing chores while she orders him around. He freaks out and tells Nanny and Pop-Pop that she is his executive secretary and Meowth is his manager. Jessie and Meowth take offense to this, and James takes them aside to explain to them that he doesn't want the old couple to be disappointed in him for being a part of [[Team Rocket]]. James admits that the time with his Nanny and Pop-Pop was a break away from his extensive and busy study schedule. He was allowed to act as he pleased at the vacation home, and he loved how they took care of sick Pokémon. His teammates agree to stay quiet, adding that James now owes them. | ||

James looks on in concern, though instantly becomes distracted by the cuteness of {{p|Mime Jr.}} Pop-Pop notices the “R” logo on James’s shirt, though Jessie covers for him, admitting that it is a company logo standing for “royalty” and “romance”. James worries that [[James's parents|his parents]] are around, but Nanny informs him that they're traveling the world, much to his relief. Suddenly, Ash's group walks in, and James is very surprised to see them. He runs outside and closes the doors behind him to talk to them, and they assume that he is there to steal Pokémon from "the nice old couple." He tells them the real situation, and tells them that he and his teammates won't do anything bad as long as they don't tell the old couple that he is in Team Rocket. Ash and the others agree to the truce. | ||
Later, Munchlax is put on a bed next to Chimecho. Suddenly, everyone realizes that Jessie and Meowth are missing, so James runs around the house in a panic to find them, with Mime Jr. following. He finally finds them eating from the refrigerator, their faces stuffed with food. He yells at them, and the rest of the group shows up, so he tries to come up with an excuse to make it seem like nothing is wrong. Later, everyone walks around the home's giant greenhouse and looks at all the Pokémon living there. Jessie and Meowth split off and see an {{p|Oddish}}. Jessie stuffs it in the back of her shirt, but James knows that something is up. Oddish's leaves poke out of Jessie's shirt, so James pulls it out and lets it go. | Later, Munchlax is put on a bed next to Chimecho.

It wakes up, though Nanny and Pop-Pop admit that Chimecho is too ill to be moved. James says he loves Chimecho, and remembers when they met and all the good times they had together. He realizes that he can't take it with him. Chimecho smiles at him and nods, letting him know it is okay to go. James starts tearing up while looking at his smiling yet sad Chimecho. James wipes away his tears and gets Chimecho's {{i|Poké Ball}} out of his pocket to give to Nanny and Pop-Pop, but a couple of empty balls fall on the floor. Mime Jr. unexpectedly runs over and presses the capture mechanism on one, going inside the Ball. James asks why {{TP|James|Mime Jr.}} wants to go with him, and Nanny and Pop-Pop tell him that Mime Jr. has taken a liking to him. Chimecho smiles again. Team Rocket's balloon flies off, and the couple watch it go, revealing that James eventually told them he was in Team Rocket. They say that even though he is in the evil organization, they know James is still a kind person, and they hope that he does well in life. James looks back to the house, and sees through the window that Chimecho is sitting up, smiling at him. Tears streaming down his face, he waves goodbye to it, and the balloon flies off into the horizon. | ||
