{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are aboard the [[S.S. St. Flower]], a luxury cruise liner, on their way to [[Slateport City]] after {{an|May}} [[AG116|won her fifth Contest Ribbon]]. The cruise liner even has its own [[Pokémon Center]], where May is able to get her Pokémon some rest and exercise. They soon run into [[Officer Jenny]], who is hot on the trail of a thief named [[Brodie]]. [[Max]] and the others quickly realize [[AG083|they encountered Brodie]] at the [[Weather Institute]]. Jenny adds that [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] have both been disbanded following [[AG097|the]] [[AG098|clash]] between {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Kyogre}} and {{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Groudon}}. Although without a team, Brodie has decided to become a master thief on his own. Nearby, {{TRT}} is listening to Officer Jenny's explanation and, upon hearing that Team Magma and Aqua are no more, they decide to take credit for it. Their hope is that their boss, {{an|Giovanni}}, will be extremely pleased by the news and Team Rocket will be able to fill the void in power left in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]].

May decides to lead the others to a room where the [[Ribbon Cup]], one of the awards given to the {{pkmn|Coordinator}} who wins the [[Grand Festival]], is being displayed. As the group admires the Ribbon Cup, {{TP|May|Munchlax}} comes running into the room being chased by a guard. With [[Max]]'s help, May manages to get Munchlax under control after getting it to eat a "May's Pink Surprise" [[Pokéblock]]. However, Ash discovers that the Ribbon Cup has a broken handle, possibly caused by Munchlax when it ran into the case. The [[Contest Judge|head judge]] of [[Pokémon Contest]]s and Chief of the [[Pokémon Activities Committee]], [[Raoul Contesta]], comes by to inspect the damage, and May takes full responsibility for what happened. Mr. Contesta is happy to accept that it was simply an accident. However, he notes that something is wrong because the Ribbon Cup should have never been able to break so easily. On closer inspection the official seal of the Contest Committee is missing, so Raoul declares that the Ribbon Cup is a fake. A card falls from the bottom of the cup, which turns out to be the signature of Brodie the Phantom Thief. The group alerts Officer Jenny to the situation, Mr. Contesta very begrudgingly decides that the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]] must be canceled because there's no Ribbon Cup to be awarded to the [[Top Coordinator|winning Coordinator]]. May pleads for another option, but Mr. Contesta sadly points out that there is no time to make another Cup, so canceling the Grand Festival is his only option. However, Officer Jenny points out that Brodie must still be on board, so hopefully they can recover the Cup before they get to Slateport City. With this hope in mind, everyone gets ready to find Brodie. Team Rocket listens in from an air duct, and set their sights on stealing the Ribbon Cup from Brodie himself.

The group realizes that they will need to find some way to force Brodie out from hiding after even a guard was tricked by his disguise. Officer Jenny has an idea and paints a normal {{i|Poké Ball}} gold. The plan is to put it on display as the extremely valuable second place prize in the Grand Festival. Ash and his friends begin spreading the word everywhere they can, hoping that Brodie will hear at least one of them and decide to steal the Poké Ball. The group reconvenes back at the same place where the Cup was stolen. They hear someone coming and hide. Team Rocket, disguised as bell hops, try to steal the Ball, but are caught in the act. They reveal themselves only for {{AP|Pikachu}} to send them blasting off. Ash and the rest of the group are shocked and dismayed that the thieves were not Brodie.
