Sycamore arrives with his assistants in a van, but before they can begin their observation Carrie confronts them, having her {{p|Sigilyph}} use {{m|Psywave}} to destroy their equipment. Carrie accuses Sycamore of the looming crisis Olympia predicted as Sycamore tries to ask for an explanation. Having seen the destruction from afar, Ash and company arrive on the scene, who Carrie recognizes and begins attacking him as well, releasing a {{p|Sableye}} who fires its {{m|Power Gem}}. Ash calls the others to stand back as he sends Pikachu and {{AP|Frogadier}} into the fray, quickly defeating Carrie's Pokémon. Before Carrie can send out another Pokémon, Olympia lifts the {{i|Poké Ball}} from her hand, ordering Carrie to stand down. Carrie is forced to surrender as Charlene scolds her for hastily jumping to conclusions, pointing out that it's not the first time that it has happened. The Psychics apologize to everyone for Carrie's recklessness, and Sycamore finally identifies Olympia as the Gym Leader of Anistar. Olympia confirms this, and Charlene explains that Olympia had a vision involving all of them. Sighting Frogadier, Olympia has another vision that directly addresses Frogadier, inviting Ash and the group to the Gym to further explain.

In the Gym, Ash's group is impressed by the gym's design based on clockwork and space, discussing the prospects of Olympia being able to predict their futures. Charlene explains that Olympia can only see into the future when she has visions instead of spontaneously. Olympia begins to discuss the vision she had of Frogadier, who she describes as a Pokémon with a "curious fate", beginning with its past as an Egg. Everyone is surprised to see the image of Froakie's Egg, realizing that they have no knowledge of what Frogadier's past was like - Sycamore confirms that he himself has little idea of what Froakie was like before he selected it as a [[Starter Pokémon]]. Olympia reveals that shortly after hatching, Froakie trained hard by itself and refused to associate with the other Froakie, being completely focused on becoming stronger. This brought it into conflict with the other Froakie and it became injured in the process, necessitating [[Nurse Joy]] to help it recover. From its interactions with Nurse Joy, Froakie realized that it needed to team up with a Pokémon Trainer to become even stronger. However, since it was already used to training by itself, it held high standards for the Trainers that chose it as a partner, and rejected all of them as being not strong enough. Olympia states that Froakie eventually found the quality it had been searching for in Ash, which was love - after Ash had showed concern for it [[XY001|when they first met]]. Ash is happy to see the bond he has with Frogadier reaffirmed.

Olympia continues her vision, revealing that not only will Frogadier evolve, but it will attain an even greater power alongside Ash. Everyone guesses that Olympia is referring to Mega Evolution, and are all excited since no records of a {{p|Greninja}} Mega Evolving have ever existed. Ash openly challenges Olympia to a Gym battle. Olympia accepts, but undergoes another vision, ordering her two {{p|Meowstic}} to use {{m|Helping Hand}} and {{m|Future Sight}}. Charlene, sharing this vision, explains that "greedy evildoers" are plotting to steal the sundial. Ash and his friends run out to stop this threat, as Olympia states that the thieves will also be involved in the crisis she foresaw.
