The movie begins with Captain Gantu (Kevin McDonald) taking 625 experiments that Jumba (David Ogden Stiers) created to save them from being destroyed by the Galactic Federation. Meanwhile, Stitch (Chris Sanders), Jumba's first experiment and protagonist of the franchise, is living on Earth with Lilo (Daveigh Chase). Lilo is training to become an intergalactic ambassador and has been corresponding with the Galactic Federation for months. However, their friendship is put on hold when Lilo is assigned to take care of the other experiments that Jumba has created and who have been found loose on Earth.

Upon hearing of Lilo's predicament, Stitch and his best friend Pleakley (also voiced by Kevin McDonald) steal Jumba's spaceship and travel to Earth to help her. They join with Lilo and begin their mission to retrieve the 625 experiments that were taken by Captain Gantu. The team is then told that once they retrieve the experiments, they will be sent back to their respective planets, which causes tension between Stitch and Lilo.

Together they head to a deserted planet which Gantu was using as a secret laboratory. They quickly discover that Gantu has been experimenting with Jumba's original experiments to create a monstrous new experiment, Leroy. In an effort to stop Leroy from being activated, Stitch ends up fighting a losing battle against multiple clones of Leroy, known as Leroy clones. The battle moves back to Earth and the action-packed finale sees the now-enlarged Lilo and her family members, Stitch, Jumba, Pleakley, and several other experiments, battling the army of Leroy clones to save Earth and bring peace to the galaxy.
