{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} are returning to [[New Bark Town]], but before Ash is able to get there to register for the {{DL|Silver Conference|Johto League Championship}}, [[Professor Elm]] sends him on an errand to retrieve a Pokémon Egg at the [[Marine Pokémon Laboratory]]. At the laboratory, Ash and his friends meet a young researcher who is in a hurry and uses {{m|Supersonic|supersonic waves}} from a {{p|Lanturn}} to detect the singing voices of traveling {{p|Lapras}}.

At the laboratory, Ash and his friends meet a young researcher who is in a hurry and uses {{m|Supersonic|supersonic waves}} from a {{p|Lanturn}} to detect the singing voices of traveling {{p|Lapras}}.


As Ash watches a herd of Lapras from shore, two adults separate from it, one of which approaches Ash. Ash realizes it's his old buddy, his {{AP|Lapras}} that he caught at the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]], and its mother. It's then revealed that the young researcher's name is [[Naomi]] and that she is studying Lapras migration routes and is the director of the Pokémon Marine Laboratory. Naomi also mentions that Professor Elm told her that Ash will be coming and will retrieve the [[Pokémon Egg]] and that's why she knows Ash's name. Ash asks Naomi if she spends all her time studying Lapras migration, Naomi confirms this and that she has been studying Pokémon Marine Biology, a study of the living patterns of marine Pokémon, she also says that this knowledge improves human life too. Naomi discusses Lapras migration and why they can navigate so quickly. Naomi says that they can somehow be able to know from a great distance away when the water temperature and season is perfect for them to return. They then share this information with the other Lapras with an outstanding speed and she figured out that the key of solving it is in Lapras' voice. Then Naomi plays the traveling song that Lapras sing when they travel and they figure out that supersonic attacks can actually pinpoint their location but {{TRT}} plans to capture the whole herd of Lapras so they can rent them out with {{AP|Pikachu}}. Naomi shows and explains the Egg's history and how she got it. Meanwhile, {{AP|Lapras}}, knowing it has been a long time since they saw each other, invites Ash to play with it.

Ash and Pikachu are then shown riding Lapras, and the three of them are enjoying being with each other again. Off to the side, Lapras' mother watches as they play, looking pleased.

* In the dub, {{an|Brock}}'s states that they haven't seen {{AP|Lapras}} since "we were in the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]]". This is false for Brock, as he was with [[Professor Ivy]] in the Orange Islands during Lapras' entire stint on Ash's team; {{Tracey}} was traveling with {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} at that point and Brock had never seen Lapras.
