==Episode plot==
Goh's parents take Goh on a trip to Azalea Town, remarking that "their last trip was cut short because of the rain". Once there, they go to a cottage, and after chatting with a man with a Sunflora, who seems to live there, they go inside and Goh's parents collapse into bed. Goh decides to go out and catch some Johto Pokémon. He goes into the nearby forest when he has a flashback from the last time they went to Azalea Town.
3 years earlier, Goh went to Azalea Town. After being frustrated that his parents were asleep, he explores the nearby forest. After seeing all the Pokémon there, he sees a dark shadow darting from tree to tree. Assuming it to be Mew, he chases it, and when he was about to grab it, collides with another boy. Goh the other boy, who assumed that the shadow was Celebi, crashed to the ground. The shadow reveals itself to be Misdreavus, and flies away. Goh and the other boy, whose name was Horace, introduce each other. After Goh boasts about seeing Mew and his knowledge of Pokémon, Horace says he wants to see Celebi, and the two go to look for Celebi.
After finding many other Pokémon, Goh pulls out a smartphone - like device, which tells him that Celebi had been spotted near a shrine in Ilex Forest. After going past a waterfall, Goh and Horace reach Ilex Forest, which is full of tall grass. When attempting to go through it, Goh and Horace get stopped by an Ariados and a Pineco. Goh then leaves, returning with the Sunflora. Horace expressed his worry that Goh wouldn't come back, and then the two use Sunflora's Razor Leaf to cut through the grass. After being stopped by a Bellosom, Goh and Horace reach the end of the grass at dusk, seeing a clearing with a large tree. When it becomes dark, Sunflora stop moving, so Goh and Horace cannot progress further. Instead, they take a break, watching the night sky and expressing how it looks like different Pokémon.
After Horace says that he is cold, he and Goh promise to meet the next day to find the shrine. The next day, Goh goes to the tree, where he waits for Horace. Nobody comes, and it starts raining. Goh gets upset and leaves the forest, where his parents pick him up.
In the current day, Goh is in Ilex Forest. He sees the path Sunflora made, bringing back more memories. He then sees an Ariados and a Pineco, capturing them both. At the end of the path, he sees the shrine, with a note tucked into it. The note is from Horace, who says that he did not want to break his promise, but he had caught a fever. He tried coming back the next day, but Goh was not there. He went back the next year, finding the shrine, and asked Celebi to send him one year back in time as to not break his promise. But, when Celebi did not appear, Horace left the note there for Goh to find.
After reading the note, Horace walks into the clearing, surprised to see Goh, with a Chikorita. Horace expresses how sorry he was, and the two walk towards each other. As they meet each other again, Celebi flies into the sky above the shrine, with another shiny Celebi beside it.
