As they battle Team Rocket, the Leaf Thieves manage to escape. Ash and his friends decide to split up and search for them, leaving Iris to team up with Cilan to try to track them down.
Meanwhile, Ash goes to a nearby flower field where he finds a Lilligant who seems to be injured. He quickly realizes that she is the leader of the Leaf Thieves and that she is in trouble. He decides to help her and brings her back to his friends, hoping to heal her.
The gang quickly figures out that the reason the Lilligant and Petilil are stealing leaves is that they are trying to make a medicine for a sick Pokémon. Ash and the gang set off to find the Pokémon in need, determined to help it.
Along the way, they encounter more obstacles from Team Rocket, who are also searching for the sick Pokémon. The gang finally reaches the Pokémon, a Whimsicott, who is very ill.
Ash and his friends work together to create a remedy for the Whimsicott and successfully nurse it back to health. As a token of thanks, the Whimsicott gives them a special flower that is said to have healing powers.
The episode ends with Ash and his friends continuing their journey to Nimbasa City, grateful for the experience and the new friendship they have made with the Leaf Thieves.
