Ash and his friends are taking a break from their travels when Bonnie finds a mysterious Pokemon in her bag. It’s a Zygarde Core!

Some Team Flare members, led by Celosia, are hunting for the Zygarde Core and find it, but are unable to capture is as Ash and his companions rescue Squishy and escape. Later, the friends relax together and Ash and Sawyer compare badges. They go to bed, but Squishy senses Team Flare coming and wakes everyone up. Ash, Serena, and Clemont all battle against Team Flare, but Squishy runs off into the forest where there are other Zygarde Cores. They fuse into the dog-like Zygarde 10% form and beat Team Flare.
