Team Rocket finds some delicious macarons in the forest and happily digs in, only to be attacked by a group of Phantump who think the treats are theirs—but one little Phantump with unusual coloring accidentally gets blasted off along with them! When the frightened Phantump lands among our heroes, they introduce it to some new friends and promise to take it back home, but Team Rocket has other ideas… In disguise, the villains lure Phantump away with the promise of more new friends—but its real friends soon come to the rescue, as the group of Phantump from the forest shows up to send Team Rocket blasting off again!

Mais un petit Brocélôme d’une couleur inhabituelle est accidentellement envoyé vers d’autres cieux avec eux ! Le Brocélôme effrayé atterrit au milieu de nos héros, qui lui présentent de nouveaux amis et promettent de le ramener chez lui. Mais la Team Rocket a d’autres projets. Déguisés, les bandits éloignent Brocélôme en lui faisant miroiter une rencontre avec de nouveaux amis. Mais ses amis véritables viennent bientôt à son secours, et le groupe de Brocélôme de la forêt envoie une fois de plus la Team Rocket vers d’autres cieux!

Sie machen es mit einigen neuen Freunden bekannt und versprechen, es nach Hause zu bringen. Doch Team Rocket hat da andere Pläne.

Glücklicherweise eilen ihm allerdings seine echten Freunde aus dem Wald zur Hilfe und alles wird mal wieder ein Schuss in den Ofen für Team Rocket!
