{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} finally arrive in [[Laverre City]], and Ash is barely able to contain his excitement about his Gym match. {{an|Serena}} is excited as well, albeit for a slightly different reason - she wants to meet [[Valerie]], a famous fashion designer who just happens to be the Laverre [[Gym Leader]] as well. The group heads over to the Laverre Gym, but when they enter, they see a large number of girls wearing Valerie's costumes running around and getting ready for something. Suddenly, Ash sees a young boy talking to a lady behind a desk and begging for a Gym match, but his request is refused due to an event scheduled for later that day. Ash bursts into the conversation as well, which confirms his fears of not being able to have his Gym match just yet.

After {{an|Bonnie}} asks the woman to marry {{an|Clemont}}, and Clemont pulls her away with much embarrassment, the boy next to Ash, whose name is [[Sawyer]], suddenly notices Clemont and recognizes him as the [[Lumiose City|Lumiose]] Gym Leader from [[XY064|his previous Gym challenge]]. Sawyer introduces himself to the group and explains how he knows Clemont. After being asked why he is away from the [[Lumiose Gym]], Clemont tells Sawyer how he is traveling with Ash and the others to gain some more experience, just like Sawyer is doing with his Gym challenges. Upon hearing that Ash has five [[Badge]]s already, including the Voltage Badge, Sawyer is amazed and decides to work even harder to catch up. Serena then suggests that they go to the store, to which Ash agrees.

The two girls take Serena and Bonnie to meet Valerie, who looks them over and agrees that they will do nicely, but without explaining anything. Serena is overcome with joy at finally meeting Valerie, but Bonnie quickly asks her to take care of Clemont as well, but Serena chides her for it. Valerie then explains that she needs a favor from the two of them. Outside, Ash, Clemont, and Sawyer are next to the large runway that has been set up, still trying to figure out what is going on. As the fashion show starts, several dresses designed after Pokémon are modeled, including designs of an {{p|Azumarill}}, [[gender|female]] {{p|Meowstic}}, {{p|Gothorita}}, and {{p|Chimecho}}. Suddenly, Serena and Bonnie appear with Braixen and Dedenne, modeling dresses designed after {{p|Florges}} and {{p|Chingling}}. Once Clemont and Ash get over their shock of seeing the two girls on the stage, Serena explains that the real models could not come and so Valerie needed two substitutes and chose them.

Suddenly, Valerie herself appears, explaining to the crowd how she used Pokémon as the basis for all of her designs. Following the advice of the girl who denied Sawyer and Ash Gym challenges earlier that day, Valerie calls Sawyer onto the stage and challenges him to a battle - with the usual Gym rules in place. With the battle being a one-on-one match, Sawyer calls on his Bagon and Valerie her {{p|Spritzee}}. Bagon starts off with a {{m|Dragon Breath}} attack, but it fails due to Spritzee being a {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon. Sawyer then attempts to use back-to-back {{m|Headbutt}} attacks, just like Hawlucha did earlier, but his efforts again fail due to Spritzee's ability to move freely in the air. The battle is soon over with a single {{m|Dazzling Gleam}} attack from Spritzee, and Sawyer does not earn the Fairy Badge.

Late that evening, the group has a meal at the [[Pokémon Center]], with Ash excitedly anticipating his upcoming Gym battle against Valerie. He and Sawyer head outside to train, followed by the other three once they finish eating.
