A Secret Sphere of Influence! (Japanese: シンオウ時空伝説! The Sinnoh Space-Time Legend!) is the 36th episode of Diamond & Pearl. It first aired in Japan on May 31, 2007 and in the United States on November 10, 2007.
Synopsis
Ash and his pals finally arrive in Eterna City. But on their way to the Pokémon Gym, they hear the alarm going off at the Eterna Museum, and the Eterna City Officer Jenny and her Stunky are summoned to investigate. The Adamant Orb has been stolen, and it shouldn't take a guess or two to figure out who's to blame-- Jessie, James and Meowth (disguised as a Sunflora) of Team Rocket are the wrongdoers behind the theft. Ash, Pikachu, Brock, Dawn and Jenny arrive to confront the robbers, but Jessie calls out Seviper and has Seviper use Haze. The crooks disappear, but the exits lock off.
More Police officers rush to the scene of the crime. Gardenia arrives at the investigation, and Ash and his friends say hello to her. Lovestruck Brock is immediately taking notice, but Croagunk Template:M2 him. Gardenia tells Ash and his friends what the police told her-- the crooks used a Template:Type2 to steal the Orb. Officer Jenny arrives with her first suspect-- Nando. Nando claims he isn't the crook because he came to the museum to find history of the Museum. Gardenia believes Nando's story, because she battled him earlier at her gym. Officer Jenny doesn't believe his story, because she has a picture of a Sunflora stealing the orb. Nando had a Sunflora with him, but it managed to sneak out of its Poké Ball before the police nabbed him. Nando is then brought in for questioning.
The Officer Jenny of Viridian City arrives and tells them it's her day off. The Viridian Jenny tells the Eterna Jenny that all trainers with Sunfloras must be investigated, and not just Nando, but the Eterna Jenny doesn't listen to her, and tells her not to get involved. Security Guards and Police Officers surround the museum. There wasn't a way for Team Rocket to get out with police everywhere, so they decide to fight their way out.
Gardenia explains that the Orb Team Rocket stole was somehow linked with the Legendary dragons, Dialga and Palkia. Ash, Brock and Dawn set out to catch the crooks. Ash sends out Aipom, Staravia and Turtwig and Dawn sends out Piplup, Pachirisu, Buizel and Buneary and they send them to search for the crooks. Meanwhile, in the interrogation room, Nando keeps trying to tell Jenny he is innocent, but Jenny continues to refuse to listen to him.
Nando's Sunflora, after sneaking out of its Poké Ball, is walking around the museum. Two Security Guards spot Sunflora, and Sunflora Leech Seeds them. Sunflora soon runs into Aipom and Turtwig, and seeds them, too. Sunflora quickly ducks into the vents. Ash and his pals find Aipom and Turtwig seeded, while the Security Guards, after having somehow freed themselves from the Leech Seed, report to Officer Jenny. In the room Team Rocket is hiding in, the Security Guards take a look inside. Team Rocket hides on the ceiling so the guards won't spot them. Then, the guards leave.
Team Rocket drops from the ceiling. The vent Sunflora is in leads into the room Team Rocket is hiding in. Pikachu and Piplup have caught Sunflora, but Sunflora tells them the Sunflora in the room Team Rocket is in, is really Meowth in disguise. When Team Rocket removes their disguises and replace them with new ones, they realize Sunflora is right! Piplup decides to attack, but Pikachu prevents Piplup from doing so. Pikachu runs back to tell Ash. Team Rocket spots Sunflora and Piplup, and Cacnea attacks them with Pin Missile.
Meanwhile, Pikachu is leading Ash and co. to Team Rocket. Team Rocket, still in disguise, walks past them, trying to act nonchalant. Sunflora attacks them with a Razor Leaf, and their disguises fall off. Gardenia and Ash conclude that Nando's Sunflora isn't criminal, and that Team Rocket are the real criminals. After Team Rocket recites their speech, Ash and his friends demand they return the orb, but they refuse. Ash's Pikachu, Aipom, Staravia and Turtwig, Dawn's Piplup, Buneary, Buizel and Pachirisu, Brock's Sudowoodo, Nando's Sunflora and Gardenia's Turtwig surround them, but they can't use their attacks, because they could harm the Adamant Orb.
The Eterna City Jenny and her Stunky arrive on the scene and Stunky uses Poison Gas, making the air around the whole room stinky. The Orb falls out of Jessie's hands, and Gardenia's Turtwig quickly responds with a Leaf Storm. The Orb lands in Gardenia's hands. Team Rocket makes a run for it, but the cops who were surrounding the museum have them cornered. The stink starts to spread outside the museum, thus allowing Team Rocket to escape.
