Upon finally making their way out of the forest, Ash, Misty and Brock find themselves at the outskirts of a large city called Florando. Wondering what they should do next, Misty suggests that they relax and do some sight seeing.

As Ash, Misty and Brock walk along the city streets, they stumble across a young lady who advises them to see the Pokemon Exhibition. There they meet a girl named Bailey and her Bellossom. One of her Bellossom is not dancing properly, and Ash, Misty, and Brock decide to help her.
