<i>Dawn is still trying to catch her first wild Pokémon, but Ash's coaching isn't helping at all and both Trainers are getting annoyed. The outlook suddenly gets much brighter when Nando, a traveling Pokémon bard, has his Budew use Sunny Day to lighten the mood. To show Ash her skills, Dawn requests a Contest battle with Nando, but Budew's Grass-type moves are too tough for Piplup. Budew wins and our heroes head to a Pokémon Center, where they learn that Nando can't decide whether to dedicate himself to Pokémon Contests or Gym battles.

As sunset passes, Dawn sulks at her loss and her inability to catch Pokémon. Brock looks at his guidebook and mentions a nearby [[Pokémon Center]], where they can stay the night. Brock brings out {{TP|Brock|Bonsly}} as Dawn checks her Pokédex. Ash asks if Brock brought {{cat|Brock's Pokémon|his other Pokémon}}, but he affirms that Bonsly is his only {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, while his other Pokémon are [[Pewter Gym|back at home]]. Dawn learns that Brock was the {{ci|Pewter}} [[Gym Leader]].

At the Center, [[Nurse Joy]] greets the group, and Dawn thinks this Nurse Joy is the same one from [[Sandgem Town]]. Brock promptly shows her a group photo of all the Joys, taking Dawn aback by their startling similarities. As Brock confesses his love to Joy, Dawn notices the familiar behavior. Ash admits even he doesn’t understand it. Later, Dawn calls [[Johanna|her mother]], who thanks the boys for watching out for her daughter. Dawn admits that there is nothing to worry about, though Johanna replies that such a statement only makes her more concerned. Johanna wishes the traveling trio all the best with their ventures before signing off. Afterwards, Nurse Joy approaches and gets Ash to register for the Sinnoh League, using his Pokédex for the registration process. Dawn asks if she can register for {{pkmn|Contest}}s as well, but Joy mentions that she does that at the [[Contest Hall]], as well as getting a [[Contest Pass]]. Three {{pkmn|Trainer}}s arrive with the three [[Sinnoh]] {{pkmn2|starter}}s, one with a {{p|Prinplup}}. Dawn is particularly excited and checks her Pokédex for information on Prinplup.

Nando also enters the Center, where he retrieves his Budew from treatment. Dawn wonders if he is staying at the Center as well, though Nando admits he needs time to ponder and leaves for the great outdoors. Nurse Joy reveals to Ash and his friends that Nando is trying to decide whether to focus on winning [[Badge]]s or [[Ribbon]]s. Ash and Dawn argue about what Nando should choose, running off after Nando to ask, forcing Brock to follow. However, their night time search fails, even with the assistance of [[Ash's Starly]]. Ash mentions that the group will have to camp out for the night as Brock scolds them for being impulsive.
