At the [[Pokémon Center]], Ash spots a photo of the flowers he had seen the Genesect looking at. Eric explains that they are an ancient species known as the Panna Lotus, which he transplanted from [[Absentia Natural Park]] to Pokémon Hills. That night, while Ash, Iris, Cilan, and Eric eat at the Pokémon Center, the Genesect begin rampaging in Pokémon Hills, driving all of the Pokémon out of the park, except for a {{p|Feraligatr}} that unsuccessfully tries to fight them off. Once they have the area to themselves, the Genesect begin spinning a giant cocoon from sturdy threads, but the thread reaches underground into a power station, disrupting the power to the city. Team Rocket sneaks into Pokémon Hills, and Ash and the others rush there after being warned by a {{p|Sableye}} they befriended earlier only to discover all the Pokémon outside as a result of the Genesect rampaging. Cilan returns to the Pokémon Center to help an injured {{p|Ralts}}. Ash, Eric, and Iris try to enter but the Electric and Ice Genesect push them away, so Eric shows them a workers' corridor used as an alternate entrance. Meanwhile, Team Rocket attempts to capture the Genesect with a bazooka but the Red Genesect spots them and drives them off. The tunnel leads Ash, Iris, and Eric to the underground power station, where they discover the threads wrapped around the generators. | At the [[Pokémon Center]], Ash spots a photo of the flowers he had seen the Genesect looking at.

Standing on a bridge overlooking the city, Mewtwo muses about its own origins.

It flashes back to [[Mewtwo's creators|its creators]] conceiving it in a tank and later torturing it during an experiment, at which point it escaped. As it recalls how it once thought it was alone, it then flashes back to being [[Mewtwo — Prologue to Awakening|badly injured after a violent battle]] and being struck by a bolt of lightning, at which point it encountered a cave of wild Pokémon that took it in and cared for it. Having realized it wasn't alone after all, Mewtwo concludes that the Genesect deserve to reach the same conclusion. A pair of {{p|Starly}} arrive and inform Mewtwo of the Genesect Army's rampage in Pokémon Hills, so it sets off. | ||
Ash, Iris, Cilan, and Eric reach the main area of Pokémon Hills and are approached by the Water Genesect, who apologizes for attacking them earlier, leading Ash to conclude that it couldn't refuse the Red Genesect's orders. The Water Genesect excitedly runs to a pool where it shows them the Panna Lotuses and tells them that it likes the flowers, which grew in its home. Iris realizes that the cocoon is the Genesect Army's nest and that they are trying to turn Pokémon Hills into their new home. When the lights begin flickering again, Eric realizes there is an emergency at the power station and rushes off to resolve it, for if it continues, the station will explode, blacking out New Tork City and sending it into chaos. The {{p|Feraligatr}} living in Pokémon Hills starts fighting with the Red Genesect again after breaking part of the cocoon, and when the Red Genesect uses {{m|Blaze Kick}} to knock the Feraligatr off a ledge, Mewtwo appears and rescues it with {{m|Psychic}}. | Ash, Iris, Cilan, and Eric reach the main area of Pokémon Hills and are approached by the Water Genesect, who apologizes for attacking them earlier, leading Ash to conclude that it couldn't refuse the Red Genesect's orders.
