Blurb

On the third day of Professor Sycamore's Pokémon summer camp, all the teams get to make their own Pokévision video! Pokévision fans Serena and Shauna are extra excited, and Shauna tells Serena all about the famous Aria's latest Pokévision video and her performance at the Pokémon Showcase, where Pokémon performers show off their partnership in style!

While scouting for a good shooting location, Serena and Ash tumble into a ravine! Ash twists his ankle, and while Professor Sycamore organizes a rescue party, Ash and Serena have time to talk about finding their dreams…even if Serena isn't quite sure what hers is yet.

After the rescue, Serena directs the rest of Team Froakie in shooting their video. When the campers vote for their favorite at a screening, our heroes come out on top! Our heroes are now tied for the most points with their new friends in Team Squirtle, as their summer camp journey continues.

Plot

As the Pokémon Summer Camp continues, the narrator restates what happened the day before. As the day begins, Ash and his friends are all doing a morning jog, and Clemont falls behind substantially. Later, Ash, his friends, Shauna, Tierno, and Trevor all participate in a fishing competition, where they all fish for Water-type Pokémon. Though they all fish out many Pokémon, Trevor gives Team Squirtle the win by fishing out a Wailord, the largest capture of them all, in stark contrast to the mere Magikarp and Tentacool that Tierno and Shauna reeled out.

As the fishing competition ends, everyone from the camp gathers around in a room as Professor Sycamore introduces the major activity of the day: a PokéVision showdown. He declares that each team must make a PokéVision video, and that the team with the best PokéVision video wins for the day.

Later on, Team Froakie returns to their cabin. Serena reveals to the group her plans for the PokéVision video, which she maps out by drawings. Ash and his friends all agree to the plan.

Serena and Bonnie then begin preparing PokéPuffs at the main hall, along with Shauna. As they do so, however, Shauna then explains to Serena what a Pokémon Performer is. She explains that a Pokémon Performer participates in competitions called Pokémon Showcases. They participate in a first round where they can stylize their Pokémon and then show them off, and then there is an Appeals Round where the Performers use their moves in combination. This becomes mildly appealing to Serena and Bonnie as they are intrigued by this kind of idea. Shauna then goes on to explain that after winning three Showcases, a Performer heads onto the Master Class, and after winning there, they can earn the title of "Kalos Queen". She then states that Aria is currently the Kalos Queen (subtly, it is revealed that Aria's Fennekin is now a Braixen).

Later on, Ash and his friends begin their PokéVision, and on the beach Team Squirtle begins their own. Serena begins running to an intriguing location to start the video, but she falls off the cliff. Ash quickly tries to save her, but also ends up falling with her. They both fall face down into the base of the cliff, while Clemont and Bonnie go seek help.

Ash and Serena are then alone down in the cliff. Ash has injured his foot by this time, but Serena helps nurse it with a wet cloth. The two then have a personal conversation. Ash then talks about his own dream, which is to become a Pokémon Master, and that Serena should take her time to find her own goal. Serena remarks on how amazing Ash is, to his own surprise. Later, they express their bonds with their respective starter Pokémon. Soon enough, Professor Sycamore arrives with Clemont, Bonnie, and Team Squirtle, along with Team Rocket in disguise, who show up as rescue workers. They show up with ropes and help Ash and Serena get up the cliff.

Team Froakie then finds a large plain, ideal for making the PokéVision video. The group then proceeds to record the video here.

The scene then changed to night. All of the teams have recorded their videos and are in the main hall to watch all of them. Team Squirtle has a video showing off each of their respective Pokémon. Later, many Pokévisions are shown and everyone watches.

Shauna and Serena then go outside to the docks to have a personal conversation. Serena then decides that she wants to become a Pokémon Performer.

Later, the votes roll in. Team Froakie has won the competition in first place, with Team Chikorita and Team Charmander in second and third place, respectively. The groups then go on to continue their Summer Camp experience.

Trivia

File:Title Card XY Serena.png
The title card segment focuses on Serena for this episode

Errors

  • During Shauna's explanation of what is a Pokémon Performer, there were multiple mistakes with the Furfrou that appeared.
    • The Star Trim Furfrou had its cyan star colored yellow and its bare ears colored white like its fur.
    • The Heart Trim Furfrou had its pink heart colored red and its bare ears colored white like its fur.
    • The Debutante Trim Furfrou had its yellow bow and collar colored cyan and the bow was on the right side of its head instead of its left.
    • The Dandy Trim Furfrou had the tips of its ears, its tie, its hair, the stripe on its hat, and its tail colored purple instead of green.
    • The Pharaoh Trim Furfrou had the tips of its ears, its stripes, and collar colored green instead of blue, the tip of its ear was left colored white, the black bare stripes on its ear were missing, it was portrayed much larger than the other four Furfrou, and the part of its body that would appear between the Heart and Debutante Trims Furfrou was not there.
  • When Team Rocket slide down the cliff Ash and Serena fell into, Jessie is shown to have lipstick while still in disguise.
  • At the end of the episode, the narrator states that Team Froakie, consisting of Ash and his friends, and Team Squirtle, consisting of Tierno, Trevor and Shauna, have the same amount of points. However, this is incorrect. On Professor Sycamore's points screen early in the episode and after the first activity with points, Team Squirtle has 10 points, and Team Froakie has 3 points. For the second activity Team Froakie gains 10 points and Team Squirtle gains 0 points. This would bring the total for the end of the episode to 13 points for Team Froakie and 10 points for Team Squirtle.

Dub edits

The dub's title card
  • The title card segment focuses on Ash in the dub instead of Serena.
  • For an unknown reason, the title card lacks the characters' shadows in the Polish dub.
