Hazel has fallen desperately in love with the handsome Pokémon trainer^[sic] Almond. But he doesn't even notice her, so she goes to Grandpa, an old wizard and Pokémon researcher, to get a sure-fire love potion that will make Almond hers! However, love potions come with a price, and Grandpa demands that Hazel go out and capture Pokémon for him. Hazel doesn't know a Pokémon from a poker chip, but for the love of Almond, Hazel is willing to do anything! It's not until she discovers the feisty and cute Pikachu that Hazel begins to understand the magic and charm that makes Almond so enthusiastic about these wonderful creatures.
