Ash and company are on their way to their next Gym required to enter the Kalos League, when they suddenly notice Officer Jenny chasing after a criminal. The group runs after the high speed chase, Officer Jenny is in hot pursuit of a stranger on a jeep accompanied by a Diggersby. The pair refuse to comply to Officer Jenny's commands to stop, and the criminal commands Diggersby to use Mud Shot behind the vehicle, knocking down a tree and temporarily stopping Officer Jenny. Laughing as they escape, the criminals notice a cage has dropped from the back of their vehicle, but as Officer Jenny is on their tail, they can not go back to retrieve it. Ash and his friends run along, but double back because Clemont is too weak to go on. They notice the cage, which has been popped open from the impact. From it emerges a Pokémon Ash has never seen, and he uses his Pokédex to identify it as a Scatterbug. On first meeting, Scatterbug seems alarmed, but after Ash explains their good intentions, it collapses on the ground, weak. Guided by Serena's map, the group rush to a Pokémon Center. At the Pokémon Center, the weakened Scatterbug is taken into the center by Wigglytuff soon to be healthy again. While Ash and his friends wait, Nurse Joy comments on how the Scatterbug isn't from their region. Ash asks how she can tell, and Nurse Joy brings up a computer display with six different types of Vivillon, and explains that their patterns differ between regions. She asks how Ash found the certain Scatterbug, and Ash is about to respond when Officer Jenny, accompanied by Manectric, lassos him form behind with her rope, saying she will put him under arrest if he resists. She says that because the group had the Scatterbug, they are accomplices of Dolan, a Pokémon smuggler. Officer Jenny releases Ash after he explains their story, and Nurse Joy reasons that Dolan must have lost the Scatterbug. Officer Jenny apologizes, embarrassed, and Wigglytuff reemerges with the recovered Scatterbug. Later, seated at a booth, Ash asks Officer Jenny about the Pokémon smugglers. Officer Jenny informs him and the group that the smugglers capture Pokémon from various regions all over the world and sell them on a large scale on the Internet. She explains that Dolan is a smuggler that specializes in Vivillon, so he captures Scatterbug and Spewpa in large amounts and keeps them locked in his hideout. Then, when they evolve into Vivillon, he sells them for a high price. As the children pledge not to let him get away with it, Scatterbug scampers around on the table, apparently distressed. It glows with a bright light and evolves into Spewpa. Ash scans it with his Pokédex, and Bonnie asks the group to tell her more about evolution. Ash's explanation is somewhat misguided, saying they evolve with a "bang!", and Clemont clarifies in a more respectable manner for Bonnie, notably referring to levels and also mentioning evolutionary stones. Clemont notices something on the Spewpa, and upon further examination it appears to be a chip emitting radio waves, so that Dolan can follow his Pokémon if they escape. Ash resolves that if Dolan is somewhere in the vicinity, he will capture him and reassures Spewpa, whose friends are still in captivity. Suddenly, Serena thinks of a plan. If they let Dolan receive some bait and follow the waves the chip is emitting, they can locate his hideout, and save the captured Pokémon as well. Officer Jenny questions their abilities to execute the plan, but Serena explains they have an inventor on their team: Clemont. He takes out a machine he calls a "Omnidirectional Super Sensitive Tracking Dish". He explains that if the transmitter chip is put into the machine so that it can memorize its waves beforehand, one can pinpoint its location no matter where they go. The machine is turned on and ready to go, but Serena is concerned for Spewpa's safety, as they are using it as bait and exposing it to potential danger. Ash decides he will be the bait, but Serena has other ideas. She takes out her costume bag and disguises Ash as Spewpa, but Officer Jenny is unimpressed, saying that Ash is a little too big to pass as a real Spewpa. They switch to Dedenne, who is too small. Finally they decide on Clemont's Chespin.
