After seeing a parent and child in the town, Koko becomes excited to introduce Ash and Pikachu to Dada. He brings them into the jungle, but when Dada restrains them in vines and confronts Koko, Koko argues back that he now believes he is a human and demands the truth. Dada admits that this is indeed the case and brings all three to a remote laboratory he discovered years earlier, where he gives Koko the pendant he was wearing when Dada found him, and an old photograph of his infant self with his biological parents. Dada, admitting that he believes the laboratory to be Koko's parents' nest, leaves to return to the Heart Tree alone. There, the elder of the Zarude tribe tells him Celebi has not been seen since the day Dada appeared in the jungle, expressing a worry that something terrible is about to happen. Meanwhile, Team Rocket attempt to hack the security lock on Dr. Zed's office, but the drive containing their data is swallowed by the Cramorant from earlier.

That night, Ash recalls a memory of his father assuring him that his dream was in his heart and would come true if he never gave up. Inspired, Koko begins searching the laboratory for more evidence of his past and comes across a wallet with the Biotope Company's logo on it. Recognizing the symbol, Ash brings Koko to the company's building the next day. Dr. Zed greets them but is visibly shaken when he sees Koko. Upon Ash showing him the photo, he explains that Koko's parents were [[Chrom and Phossa Molybdenum]], his former colleagues on the healing spring research and that Koko's real name is Al Molybdenum. However, he further elaborates that Chrom and Phossa perished in a car accident ten years earlier, after which Al went missing. To confirm Koko's identity, Zed has Sharon scan his pendant, which reveals a cache of corrupted data and an image of the Heart Tree. Zed urges Koko to tell him where the Heart Tree is to honor his parents by finishing their work, but he grows upset and flees back into the jungle. As he draws close to the Heart Tree, he discovers a tracking chip planted on his shoulder by Dr. Zed, who has followed him on a motorcycle with several trucks and a giant spider-tank mecha in tow. Ash and Pikachu, who tried to follow Koko but became lost, are led to the scene by a {{p|Skwovet}} Koko befriended. Zed captures Ash, Pikachu, and Koko in his {{p|Ariados}}'s {{m|String Shot}} and imprisons them in one of the trucks to prevent their interference while he leads the rest of the team to the Heart Tree.

At the Heart Tree, the Biotope Company team detects a powerful energy source. Dr. Zed orders anchoring missiles to be fired into the tree, releasing the healing spring water; he informs a horrified Sharon that his target was never the water but the tree itself, as the energy inside it is the source of the healing springs' power. His subordinates notice the Zarude around the Heart Tree and realize that it is their nest, but when they try to convince him to stop, Zed grows furious. Meanwhile, Team Rocket scheme to steal Pikachu by hijacking the truck Ash, Pikachu, Koko, and Skwovet were imprisoned in. When the Cramorant reappears, they instead decide to take advantage of Cramorant's habit of swallowing Pikachu, but when it coughs up the drive it swallowed, they let Ash, Pikachu, and Koko go in favor of breaking into Zed's office.
