To Find a Fairy Flower! (Japanese: フラべべと妖精の花! Flabebe and the Fairy Flower!) is the 27th episode of the XY series, and the 826th episode of the Pokémon anime. It first aired in Japan on May 15, 2014, in the United Kingdom on June 29, 2014, and in the United States on July 19, 2014.
Plot
As Ash and his friends prepare to set off again to the Shalour Gym, Bonnie encounters difficulties while fixing her hair. When Serena puts a flower clip in Bonnie's hair, a lone Flabébé attaches itself to it, looking downhearted. Bonnie feeds the Flabébé nectar, and then asks Clemont if she can keep the Pokémon. When Clemont tries to capture it, however, the Flabébé refuses, and Ash points out it must already have a trainer, angering Bonnie. The friends walk into the nearest town, Calanthe Town, to find its owner, with Bonnie still wanting to keep Flabébé for herself, talking to it in her hair by way of a mirror. Suddenly, an old man, spotting the Flabébé, runs up to the group, overjoyed. He introduces himself as Gray and thanks the group for taking care of his Pokémon. When he asks Flabébé to go home with him, however, she will not let go of Bonnie's hair. When asked about Flabébé's lack of a flower, the man explains his story.
Flabébé lives together with Gray and his wife Florence. One day while gardening, Florence fell ill and collapsed. Flabébé, then with a flower, flew to find Gray. Florence was admitted to a hospital, where the old woman would stay. When Gray woke up the next morning, Flabébé was gone. On a hunch, he found Flabébé at the hospital, watching Florence. A strong wind separated Flabébé and its flower, and carried Flabébé away, its flower left ruined. Now Gray must take Flabébé back quickly, as Florence is not doing well, due to an emotional matter. As flowerless Flabébé will lose their energy, they must find Flabébé a same flower as its original before they can take it to the hospital. However, this fairy flower, which resembles Bonnie's hairpiece, is not easy to find. The traveling companions tell Gray to go visit Florence while they go search for the flower.
The group first goes to a Pokémon Center to heal Flabébé, where Nurse Joy tells them the flowers may be found in the high plains near the town, but they are not in season. Team Rocket watches from behind newspapers and hatches a plan. As Bonnie and the group are about to head out, a disguised Team Rocket stops them, offering a special tour to find the Flabébé flowers. The "tour guides" guide the group quickly to the high plains, where the travelers begin to look for a flower. Flabébé spots one high on the side of a cliff, which Bonnie must climb because Flabébé must attach itself naturally to the flower. Meowth encapsules Pikachu with a claw as Bonnie and Flabébé reach the flower. Ash, Clemont, and Serena take out Froakie, Chespin, and Fennekin, while Jessie and James retaliate with Pumpkaboo and Inkay. Ash commands Froakie to use Water Pulse, but the move is reflected by Jessie's Wobbuffet's Mirror Coat. Chespin uses Pin Missile, but it is reflected again, hurting Ash, Clemont, and Serena's Pokémon. James and Jessie order Inkay and Pumpkaboo to use Psybeam and Shadow Ball on the opposing Pokémon, who are unable to retaliate. Just then, Flabébé, now on the new flower, flies over the battlefield, using Aromatherapy to subdue Team Rocket and their Pokémon. Under the calming effects of Flabébé's attack, Team Rocket releases Pikachu on their own accord. With Team Rocket out of the way, Flabébé and the travelers return to town to find Gray.
The friends arrive at the hospital, and Florence and Flabébé are reunited, giving the old woman hope. Gray and Florence thank Bonnie, and Bonnie and Flabébé share a heartfelt goodbye. Coming out of the hospital, Bonnie is feeling down to have departed from Flabébé, but Dedenne cheers her up to continue on their journey.
