Synopsis

Template:Incomplete synopsis Everyone is getting prepared to leave Canalave City to head to Dawn's next contest. Before they leave, Ash calls Barry to tell him of his win at the Canalave Gym. Barry is at Iron Island, and something is currently wrong with his Empoleon and some other Pokémon who've begun to act out violently. They go to help him and find all the Template:Type2 Pokémon going crazy and fighting amongst themselves and other Pokémon. The gang goes to Iron Island to help, where they meet a man named Riley who offers to help them with his Lucario. Despite being a steel type, Lucario is able to use his aura to protect himself from whatever is angering the steel types.

Team Rocket, who followed Ash and company to the island, have a run in with many of the rampaging steel-types before running into Barry and his Heracross. He accuses them of angering the steel-types, pointing out a device he spotted in the air. He leads them to the location, which turns out to be a Team Galactic base led by Mars. Then they fall through a crevice into a small cave with Dialga and Palkia etchings.

Ash and company finally reach the base, and Lucario can't fight the disturbance any more. The episode ends with him attacking the group.
