Chapters
The Ruler of the Reverse World Appears!
The chapter opens with a battle between Dialga and Giratina. Dialga tries to escape through a dimensional warp, but Giratina is holding it back. Zero and Infi are shown, tracking down the dimensional warp. By the time they arrive in their airship, however, Giratina has dragged Dialga completely back into the Reverse World. Unexpectedly, Shaymin has been dragged into the Reverse World, too. It watches in terror as the two other Pokémon fight. Suddenly, it causes an explosion, which creates another warp, allowing Dialga and Shaymin to escape.
Meanwhile, Ash, Dawn, Brock and their Pokémon are getting ready to sit down to a big breakfast of pancakes. Ash is already sitting down and about to eat when Dawn makes him wash his hands. While Ash is washing his hands, a shadowy figure appears on the table and starts eating. When they approach it, they discover it is a Pokémon, but it runs away. Ash and Dawn's Pokémon stop it from escaping. During this commotion, the rest of Brock's pancakes start to burn. The Pokémon sucks up the smoke, and then causes an explosion. After the explosion, it looks charred and weak, so the group run to take it to the Pokémon Center.
At the Pokémon Center, the group discovers that the mysterious Pokémon is Shaymin, the Gratitude Pokémon. Shaymin seems to have recovered from its earlier exhaustion, eating lots of food. It tells Ash that it wants more food, showing that it can communicate telepathically. Shaymin burps, and the group duck for cover, expecting another explosion. Nurse Joy explains that the earlier explosion was Seed Flare, Shaymin's signature move. Brock realizes that the smoke from the burning pancakes was probably what caused Shaymin to use Seed Flare. Shaymin tells the others that it wants to go to the "Flower Bearing". At the Flower Bearing, Shaymin from all over gather together at the Gracedia Flower Garden. With their combined power, they fly around, creating new gardens. The group decide to take Shaymin to the flower garden, and leave the Pokémon Center.
On the way, Dawn stops to look in a large mirror on the side of the road. Shaymin appears scared of the mirror and runs away, but Jessie and James catch it. Before they can take it away, Giratina appears in the mirror and sucks Ash, Pikachu, Dawn, Piplup, Jessie, James, Meowth, and Shaymin inside, leaving Brock behind. They fall through a dimensional warp and appear in the Reverse World. They find that the Reverse World's gravity is very weak. Shaymin tells the others that it's scared and it wants to leave. They see Giratina and Shaymin panics, saying that Giratina wants to eat it. Pikachu and Piplup start to fight Giratina, but a strange man in the distance tells them to stop and to come over with them. They all start running until they reach a safer place away from Giratina. The man explains to them that they are in the Reverse World, which is the other side of the real world, although it never actually intersects with the real world. He introduces himself as Newton Graceland and explains that he's been studying the Reverse World for five years. When Ash asks about Giratina, Newton explains that it is the ruler of the Reverse World and that it is the only Pokémon that lives there.
The group decide to head back to the real world through the dimensional warp that let them in. As they are running, Newton explains that Giratina is probably angry because recently two dimensions that were never supposed to meet collided. Ash realizes that that was what happened in Alamos Town. Newton says that because of the battle, a large amount of noxious gas appeared in the Reverse World, making Giratina angry. Newton concludes by telling the group that this happened because the Reverse World and the real world are connected, so a distortion in one will affect the other. The group are about to jump into the portal, but Giratina begins to give chase. They think that Giratina has picked up Shaymin and taken it away, but it turns out it was a Substitute. Newton decides to remain in the Reverse World a little longer, so Ash, Dawn, and the Pokémon jump into the portal without him. Newton tells them to avoid mirrors, because Giratina can see into the real world through them.
They fall back into the real world through the mirror, where Brock is waiting. Returning to their original goal of finding the flower garden, they set off again. Suddenly, Shaymin is attacked by a large group of Magnemite. They turn out to belong to Zero, who demands that they hand over Shaymin.
