History

As Murdock, Liko, and Roy arrived to Galar to do shopping around the region, they decided to visit the Battle Café. After being seated to their table, they watched as Mitchell was battling with a Trainer's Cufant. Mitchell rewards Trainers who wins a Slurpuff-shaped cotton candy.

Told in a flashback by Murdock. Mitchell and Murdock used to work together as a team, selling cakes with the help of Milcery. Using Milcery's cream, they were able to make abundance of cakes, Mitchell preferring matcha flavor, whilst Murdock prefers strawberry flavor. Though there was a slight rivalry between them, they both took it lightheartedly. Unaware in another room, Milcery grabbed a strawberry from the plate and spun, causing it to evolve into an Alcremie. Although Murdock was extremely happy for Alcremie and for the thought of making Strawberry Ruby Swirl decorated cakes, Mitchell wasn't. The next day, they started as usual selling their cakes. After they were done, Murdock's cakes were sold, but unfortunately, Mitchell's weren't as popular as his, thus, Mitchell developed a resentment towards Alcremie, as he was not able to use her ruby swirled cream. Refusing to taste the cream given by her.

Eventually, the tension between Murdock and Mitchell was resolved, as instead of an actual Pokémon battle, it turned into a sweets battle. They used their differences, with the additional help of Liko, to create a new way of decorating cakes, sharing the cakes they've made with the customers in the café. Murdock apologized, regretting what occurred in the past. Mitchell left and return with a plate in his hands, one of the secret menu items, a Matcha Cake. He felt that the cake was not complete and asked for Alcremie to use her cream to complete it.

In the past, Mitchell sulked and became envious towards Murdock, as well as hurting Alcremie in the process. He wishes to be friends again and to end the conflict he had with Murdock. Sharing the cake with both matcha and strawberry flavor to him, Murdock can tell that the cake was made by someone who has the love of making sweets. Even though they're adults, they cried as they reconciled.

In the next episode, Mitchel witnessed Liko and Roy's interaction with Kabu and stayed in the cafeteria with Murdoch while the two young Trainers went after the Gym Leader.
