Synopsis
In another dimension a battle wages between two Pokémon, Dialga and Palkia. Both exchange powerful attacks, resulting in explosions that send groups of Unown flying. Dialga manages to get the upper hand, attacking Palkia with a Roar of Time. Palkia quickly defends itself, but in the process gets one of its gems damaged. In a close clash with each other, the two of them send off powerful waves of energy.
Meanwhile, a scholar is reading an old manuscript, the Diary of Godey, which contains useful information regarding Alamos Town. His room is littered with equipment for sensing energy and books from related studies. Just when the two Pokémon in the other dimension release a burst of energy, his equipment reads off pulses of energy coming from a location close to where he is, the energy indicating a space-time anomaly. But he realizes the energy is not of this dimension, it's something different, and something very powerful.
And so, the fighting continues...
Present day
Ash, Brock, and Dawn travel down a path. Dawn and Ash both ask Brock if they'll reach their next destination, Alamos Town, soon because they're starting to get tired and hungry. Brock says that they're really close and they begin to see the town on the horizon. They all hurry towards the town, but are disappointed when they realize that the town is on a mesa, surrounded by water. Dawn complains to Brock if he was reading the map right, but Brock is a little confused himself. In a close call, a woman in a hot air balloon floats by, asking if they want a ride. Of course, the gang accepts and hops along.
Alice's balloon soon approaches the town with its overlooking twin towers called the Space-Time Towers. Alice says that this is what the town is famous for. One of the towers is the Tower of Time; the other is the Tower of Space. The main building down on the ground holds a large Pokémon Contest, which is why Dawn wanted to come to town. However something begins rocking the balloon violently, but instead of wind, its some sort of energy. Back in the scholar's lab, his equipment goes off taking readings of the same anomaly.
Afterwards, the gang lands safely, and decides to take it easy in the town for now. Alice explains the town is very lively, and it wouldn't be too hard to find something to do. Ash tries to make a break for it but runs into a Torterra. He then sees three trainers, Katsumi, Dai, and Maki. The Torterra belongs to Katsumi, while Dai has an Empoleon and Maki has an Infernape. Seeing this as a battle opportunity, the gang challenges them to a match.
Afterwards, Alice shows the gang a garden behind the contest stadium. As they make their way there, several Pokémon begin following them, including Azurill, Marill, Azumarill, Wooper, Quagsire, Shinx, and Luxio. Thinking it'd be a good time for their Pokémon to get some exercise, the gang releases their Pokémon. A fight nearly breaks out, but Alice calms the situation by playing a tune on a reed.
Then a Gallade rushes towards the gang, and informs Alice that something has happened. Calling back their Pokémon, the gang rushes to see what's wrong. They come to a pool that's been drained and a few of the surrounding pillars toppled, but looked as if they melted at the base. They wonder who could've done it, until a decorated man by the name of Alberto enters the scene, proclaiming it's the work of Darkrai. Asking about Darkrai, the man says that it's a demon that haunts the park and he wants to catch it. A bush nearby shakes and the man calls out his Lickilily. The large Pokémon fires a Hyper Beam at the bush, only to find that it was the scholar!
Confused, Alberto wonders what the scholar is doing there. To clear up confusion with the gang, Alice says that the scholar is Tonio, her childhood friend. But Alberto claims that he's Alice's fiancé (to Brock's dismay). Alice denies that, instead saying that she likes Tonio instead (again to Brock's dismay). Alberto tries to mock about Tonio, but is soon interrupted by an ominous shadow on the ground. Then Darkrai appears from it!

Trivia
- Yuyama Kunihiko travelled to Spain together with screenwriter Hideki Sonoda and composer Shinji Miyazaki, to various places including the Sagrada Família in Barcelona, to get ideas for the setting of the movie.
- The design of the Space-Time Tower is based on the Sagrada Família.
- The architect behind the Space-Time Tower is named Godey, and his descendant is named Tonio, both references to the architect of the Sagrada Família, Antoni Gaudí.
- Players who had pre-ordered tickets for the Japanese run could receive a Deoxys. In major cinemas, a Darkrai could be downloaded. Instructions on how to get Darkrai were provided before and after the feature presentation by Meowth.
- The number of Pokémon debuts in this movie is matched only by Mewtwo Strikes Back, Spell of the Unown and Jirachi: Wish Maker; this is because these are the only movies to follow the beginning of a new generation. With the exception of the first movie (which was released more than two years after Generation I had debuted), no Pokémon were introduced in any of these three movies that could not be found in the games of the respective generation. Counting the corresponding Pikachu shorts, Mewtwo Strikes Back had 22 debuts (of which 3 were Generation II Pokémon), Spell of the Unown had 16 and Jirachi: Wish Maker had 14, or 15 if including Groudon as having a live debut. This movie had 18 debuts within itself, or 20 if considering Dialga and Palkia's appearances as their live debuts.
- The following promotional cards were available. Each corresponds to a Pokémon film. The first 11 were bought as a set, complete with a gloss paper folder and protective sleeving, while Darkrai had to be obtained when purchasing a ticket.
- Counter Attacking Mewtwo (逆襲のミュウツー Gyakushū no Myūtsū)
- Rising Lugia (爆誕のルギア Bakutan no Rugia)
- Crystal Tower's Entei (結晶塔のエンテイ Kesshōtō Entei)
- Time-Traversing Celebi (時を超えたセレビィ Toki o Koeta Serebī)
- Water City's Latias (水の都ラティアス Mizu no Miyako Ratiasu)
- Water City's Latios (水の都ラティオス Mizu no Miyako Ratiosu)
- Seven Nights Jirachi (七夜のジラーチ Nanayo no Jirāchi)
- Split Sky Visitor Deoxys (裂空の訪問者デオキシス Rekkū no Hōmonsha Deokishisu)
- Tree of Beginning's Mew (はじまりの樹のミュウ Hajimari no Ki no Myū)
- Wave Hero Lucario (波導の勇者ルカリオ Hadō no Yūsha Rukario)
- Prince of the Sea Manaphy (蒼海の王子マナフィ Umi no Ōji Manafi)
- Darkrai Lv. 50 (ダークライ Lv.50 Dākurai Lv.50)
- Five minor characters from other movies make a cameo appearance in this movie. A man and his daughter, who were briefly seen with Aipom in the beginning of Pokémon Heroes, are given a similar appearance alongside Chimecho and Chingling. The hippie from Jirachi: Wish Maker, where he sold May her Wishing Star, sells Dawn a Lunar Wing charm. Finally, the mother and girl that were reading the legend of Rota in the beginning of Lucario and the Mystery of Mew, are seen buying cotton candy.
- This is one of the few movies without a human antagonist. The two others are Destiny Deoxys and Lucario and the Mystery of Mew.
- On the wall that features Alicia in the center of the Space-Time Tower, there are many Pokémon and their counterparts on the opposite side of Alicia. They are: Solrock and Lunatone, Dustox and Beautifly, Gallade and Gardevoir, Volbeat and Illumise, Zangoose and Seviper, Electivire and Magmortar, Plusle and Minun, Leafeon and Glaceon, and the two variants of Gastrodon.
