==Synopsis==
Eevee is bewitched by a wild Skitty.
==Summary==
Justin and Rachel aim for Petalburg City, so Justin can take on his father in a chance for the Balance Badge. Justin prepares his Pokemon the challenge by taking on Lady Sarah and her Ludicolo with Eevee. As the battle wages, a wild Skitty looks on from afar and she is smitten by the strength and power of Justin's Eevee, who ultimately wins battle.
Justin and Rachel take a break to discuss their plans. They intend to return to Rustboro City for a two-night stay. They will meet with Mr. Stone, drop by the Pokemon School, and restock on supplies. As they take a break, Justin and Rachel allow their Pokemon to wander, trusting them to keep each other safe.
All their Pokemon return except for Eevee. Eevee is in the forest area and uses Iron Tail to force an apple out of a tree. The wild Skitty approaches and Eevee gets her an apple as well out of friendliness. Skitty thanks Eevee by rubbing up against him, which triggers Skitty's Cute Charm ability. Eevee becomes infatuated with Skitty.
Justin goes out to look for Eevee out of concern and ultimately finds him with Skitty. Justin assumes Skitty is a nice friend but comes to pick up Eevee so they can leave. Skitty does not want Eevee to leave, so Eevee fires Shadow Balls at Justin to keep him away. Justin is not happy and orders Eevee to return, only for Eevee to dodge and knock back Justin with Quick Attack.
Kirlia is with Rachel and he senses Justin's pain, a quality of the Kirlia species. Kirlia pulls Rachel to come follow him, and they find Justin against his snarling Eevee. Justin explains the problem of sudden aggression. Kirlia is not happy Justin is attacked and begins to battle Eevee. Kirlia is strong, but Eevee is much stronger.
Rachel scans Eevee in her dex and on the surface there is nothing wrong with him. However, she then scans the Skity behind Eevee, which reads that Eevee has the Cute Charm ability and must have bewitched Eevee. Justin says Cute Charm should not last that long but they observe Skitty continuously rubbing against Eevee, which will naturally make the effects of Cute Charm much more long-lasting.
Rachel asks how they are going to stop Eevee. Justin sighs allows Combusken to battle Eevee, the only Pokemon they have strong enough to compete. Combusken is excited having long since wanted to spar against the Evolution Pokemon, but Justin holds off Combusken. Justin commands Combusken well to get the upper hand on Eevee by using Flame Charge to increase its speed before Eevee can react. However, Skitty intervenes and smacks Combusken away with Double Slap.
Rachel volunteers Jigglypuff's help to reclaim Eevee, but Mudkip wants to assert himself and help. Combusken and Mudkip work well together. Mudkip manages to cage Eevee and Skitty in a Water Pledge prison, and Skitty uses a magnificent Blizzard to destroy the attack in a dazzle, prompting Rachel to propose catching Skitty.
Rachel recalls Mudkip and puts Jigglypuff into battle as she initially wanted. Justin has Combusken keep the pressure on Skitty and Eevee. They are distracted, so Jigglypuff performs Sing, which puts Eevee and Skitty to sleep. Justin finally recalls Eevee, and Rachel throws a Poke Ball to capture Skitty.
After a moment, Justin sends Eevee back out who is exhausted from the day's events. Eevee has no recollection what occurred. Rachel grooms her new Skitty, who notices Eevee. Eevee remembers his interaction with Skitty as the moment he cannot recall anything. Skitty chases after Eevee in affection, and Eevee tries to flee.
