{{Ash}}, {{an|Professor Kukui}}, and {{an|Professor Burnet}} prepare to leave the house to go to the local shops, while {{an|Rotom Pokédex}} will stay behind to look after the currently sleeping Pokémon. Rotom waves the trio goodbye and uses the opportunity to snap images of the napping Pokémon. Rotom's photography session is then interrupted by the doorbell, waking {{AP|Litten}} in the process. Rotom answers the door, finding a deliveryman and his {{p|Machoke}}. He is a little shocked to see Rotom and asks if anyone is home, but Rotom explains the situation. Machoke brings in a bright orange washing machine, surprising Rotom, who then signs off on the delivery and closes the door. Just then, Litten and {{AP|Lycanroc}} get into a playful fight, taking Rotom's attention and sense of peace with it. Meanwhile, the washing machine turns out to be another {{p|Rotom}}. Litten's {{m|Ember}} hits {{AP|Rowlet}} by mistake, and Rowlet attempts to target Litten in retaliation. Instead, it attacks {{AP|Pikachu}}, who responds to the painful awakening by shocking everyone in the room. This sends the two Rotom flying about, before knocking themselves back into the washing machine and Pokédex cover.

Ash, Kukui, and Burnet return home to see the washing machine, just as the deliveryman returns to apologize for delivering the wrong item. The deliveryman packs the washing machine back in his van and drives off. Meanwhile, Ash and the two Professors reenter the house and find Rotom's Pokédex cover lying on the floor. Kukui takes it from Ash's hands and taps on the screen, which causes the system to reboot. Rotom emerges, but refers to itself as "Wash Rotom Pokedex". Ash notices that Rotom is acting strangely, though Kukui and Burnet think nothing of it and assume it is just a symptom of the reboot.

Next, Rotom possesses an oven in [[Aina's Kitchen]]. It soon realizes where it is upon seeing {{an|Mallow}} accepting [[Moomoo Milk]] from {{an|Kiawe}}. Kiawe says it is strange that the restaurant ran out of milk, though Mallow explains they had many orders. She rewards Kiawe with a hot pudding, only to find Rotom's door open automatically. Mallow and {{TP|Mallow|Steenee}} inspect the puddings, only to find that they are still watery and close the door. However, its springs open again, so she closes it again. Rotom moves around to get their attention, though the act only scares Mallow and Steenee out of the kitchen. Kiawe calls out his {{TP|Kiawe|Marowak}} to solve the issue, and it strikes Heat Rotom with its bone. Rotom exits the oven and into {{an|Sophocles}}'s fridge. Hoping to get Sophocles and {{TP|Sophocles|Togedemaru}}'s attention, it freezes them solid with its {{m|Blizzard}}. Rotom escapes, just as [[Sophocles's parents|Sophocles's mother]] discovers her son.

Rotom concedes that it must return to the washing machine. Ash also attends the Pokémon Center to notify [[Nurse Joy]] about his Rotom's bizarre nature. Nurse Joy is instantly reminded of her washing machine, which she points to, and the Wash Rotom Pokédex says it is nostalgic. Suddenly, Rotom enters the Center and returns to the washing machine. After the Pokédex details Rotom and its forme changes, Nurse Joy believes her washing machine may have been affected. In its excitement to see Ash again, Wash Rotom sprays a {{m|Hydro Pump}}. Pikachu counters with {{m|Electro Ball}}, though Rotom fills the room with soap suds out of fear, which Ash interprets as an attack. Ash then has Pikachu use its Thunderbolt, and it shocks everyone in the process. Once again, the Rotom exit their devices, knock into each other, and reenter their original devices.

Nurse Joy starts mopping the Center clean again, while Ash knocks on his Pokédex, causing Rotom to reboot its system. Rotom is turned on and expresses delight to be back, just as the Wash Rotom starts to rattle again. Rotom explains to Ash that the two switched bodies, and he accepts the strange turn of events. Ash then explains that the other Rotom had taken a picture of a rare Pokémon, though it was deleted. Fearing it may be missing out on valuable data, Rotom flies out in search of the rare Pokémon. Ash goes to pursue it, but he slips and crushes Pikachu, who shocks everyone once again. Ash finds the Pokédex shell lying on the floor again, and fears the two Rotom have switched bodies. Unbeknownst to him, Rotom instead bonded with the Pokémon Center.
