The same day, the Sunflora Festival occurs, and Team Rocket, stripped of a Sunflora, have to dress up Meowth as one. As the judging commences, one judge likes Cyrus's Sunflora, one likes Sonrisa's, and the last one is on the fence. As Meowth is being examined, {{TP|Madame Muchmoney|Snubbull|Granbull}} appears and catches a glimpse at Meowth in the costume, but she suspects his real identity, and sniffs him, and then bites down on his tail. Meowth comes out of his costume and then Team Rocket reveal themselves.

They activate mirrors that raise up all around the stadium and shine light in on everyone, blinding them, but the Sunflora grow with the bright light, but eventually, they collapse and are immobilized, as their heads grew big after being exposed to the bright light, but Team Rocket isn't interested in the Sunflora, they just want to steal the instant noodles. Jessie sends out {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}} Ash sends out {{AP|Chikorita}}, and Misty sends out {{TP|Misty|Poliwag}}. As their Pokémon battle, James controls the [[Team Rocket's mechas|Meowth Balloon]] to pick up the instant noodles. Chikorita uses {{m|Razor Leaf}} to cut the net of noodles down. James sends out his {{TP|James|Weezing}} to battle, but Ash commands {{AP|Pikachu}} to use {{m|ThunderShock}} on it. Out of jealously, Chikorita shoves Pikachu while he is getting ready to attack, and his shock ricochets off Team Rocket's mirrors, breaking them, and in the process, mobilizes the Sunflora.

Sonrisa orders her Sunflora to use {{m|SolarBeam}} on Team Rocket, sending them blasting off again. The judges, amazed by this display, crown Sonrisa's Sunflora as the winner of the festival.
