Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.

Plot

At the Rose of the Rondelands hotel, Goh has forgotten his Rotom Phone on a table in the room where he and Ash are staying. An incoming call from Quillon is ignored by a shadowy figure who figures out the passcode and opens the phone to watch images and videos of Goh's Inteleon, leading to a flashback of it as a Sobble, who became inspired to become an Inteleon after seeing one in action, and eventually achieving this dream. Quillon calls again, but the figure using the phone hangs up on him and instead views a message sent by Danika about Project Mew, which reintroduces the research team's goal and its five Chasers: Quillon, Danika, Goh, Gary, and Horace. Quillon makes yet another call, and the individual messing with the phone is revealed to be Grookey.

The narrator hosts one of his radio shows to read listener mail. The first letter comes from Chloe, which leads to a flashback of Goh's Scorbunny's evolution into Raboot; while the second one is from Horace, which, in turn, leads to flashbacks of the Raid Battle against Articuno and the Trial Mission to catch Regieleki and Regidrago, both of which prominently featured Cinderace. The clip show concludes with a storybook tale of Grookey's first errand.
