Plot
After arriving at Cerise Laboratory, Chloe is greeted by Yamper and let's Eevee out of her Poké Ball. She is then greeted by Professor Cerise, who tells her he still has a lot of work to do. That's why Chloe went to read a book in his office. As she was looking for the right book, a book fell out of the bookcase on its own. Fascinated by the pictures of the regional forms of Ponyta and Rapidash in this book, Chloe gets a vision of them. This causes her to ask her father about these Pokémon. He, together with Ren explain to her, as well as to Ash and Goh what these Pokémon are. Surprised that his daughter is interested in these Pokémon and would like to see them, he sends Chloe, Ash, and Goh to the Glimwood Tangle in the Galar region.
Once they arrived in the forest, Ash, Goh, and Chloe are fascinated by everything around them, including the glowing mushrooms, after Eevee accidentally bumped into one. Ash and Goh then found a Morelull and quickly ran after it as it started to run away. Chloe, however, noticed a Galarian Ponyta was looking at her and then ran after it. Still running after Morelull, Goh let out Cinderace in order to stop Morelull and catch it. After catching Morelull, Goh and Ash realized that they lost Chloe.
Chloe followed the Ponyta down a ravine, finding a hurt Rapidash down at the bottom. That's when Chloe realizes these are the same Pokémon from her vision. Ponyta then tries to use Heal Pulse on the hurt Rapidash, showing that it was hurt too badly to be completely healed by Heal Pulse. Chloe then tells Ponyta that they need to give Rapidash dew from the rainbow flowers, growing in the forest, just like she read in the book. Hearing this, Ponyta decides to lead Chloe and Eevee to the location of these flowers. Meanwhile, as it started raining, Ash and Goh keep looking for Chloe, but can't seem to reach her, finding Ballonlea along the way and going there to protect them from the rain and look for Chloe. They are then confronted by Opal who starts asking them questions and forces them to wear pink clothing articles for giving her the wrong answers.
As the rain stopped, Chloe, Eevee, and Ponyta kept looking for the flowers, but Eevee and Chloe were hurt along the way climbing a rock wall, causing them to take a break. Chloe gave Eevee and Ponyta water, after which Ponyta uses Heal Pulse to heal Eevee's wounds. Eevee then uses Copycat to do the same to Chloe's wounds. They then move on. Having finally found the flowers they were looking for, Chloe was confronted by a group of Impidimp who stole her flask and backpack. Eevee tried to fight them but was quickly defeated, causing Chloe to run after the Impidimp, falling into a trap they made, along the way. As Chloe pleaded to the Impidimp to let them go, they spat the water from Chloe's flask onto Chloe, Eevee, and Ponyta, before sticking their tongues out at Eevee who imitated them. The Impidimp then climbed into a nearby tree, in order to throw berries at Eevee, who then again did the same, causing a battle between the Impidimp and Eevee.
Seeing this, Chloe realized the Impidimp just wanted someone to play with them and decided to shake the tree they were in, causing the Impidimp, Eevee, and a bunch of berries to fall out of the tree, with everyone starting to throw berries at each other. After everybody washed off the berries from their faces, the Impidimp returned Chloe's belongings, including the dew from the flowers which they had filled her flask with, and ran off. Chloe, Eevee, and Ponyta then returned to Rapidash and let it drink the dew, hoping to heal it. Sadly, the dew wasn't enough. That's why Ponyta tried to use Heal Pulse on Rapidash again, this time joined by Eevee. This quickly healed the wound and allowed Rapidash to stand up on its own. Ponyta and Rapidash then let Chloe and Eevee ride them respectively and brought them to Ballonlea. Opal then revealed that she was asking so many questions to Ash and Goh because she knew that it would be smarter to wait in one place instead of looking for Chloe, moving blindly. They then ran up to Chloe, causing Ponyta and Rapidash to run off.
Back at Cerise Laboratory, Chloe fell asleep behind the book. After waking up, Ash and Goh came to tell her that her father was done working, so she got up and left the room. After she closed the door behind her, the book started to turn the pages on its own, stopping at a picture of Ponyta, Rapidash, an Eevee, and a girl.
