Ash informs Alain that she was the one hunting for Squishy, and Celosia is amused that Ash still remembers her.

He adds that {{p|Zygarde}}, the Order Pokémon, is angry with people and Pokémon, for creating a world in which there is not enough for everyone, and thus he wishes to create a world in which only the chosen ones shall live in the bright and hopeful future.

Meanwhile, Alain is flying in a jet with Team Flare grunts and an unconscious Ash and Pikachu, towards the Prism Tower.

Lysandre notices the destruction caused by Zygarde, and is pleased that the ugliness from the world is slowly disappearing, commenting that the red Zygarde represents all their anger.

The Kalos League award ceremony is interrupted as giant creeping vines engulf the stadium and threaten to take over Lumiose City! Lysandre broadcasts Team Flare’s manifesto: they want to create a new world order, where only the “chosen ones” will join them.

Ash and Alain set off to rescue Mairin, but Ash is shocked to discover that Alain has been working with Lysandre, and Team Flare imprisons Ash atop Prism Tower. His friends try to help, but an angry Zygarde stands in their way—until it’s confronted by a second Zygarde, as Squishy transforms and reveals its true identity! A showdown is imminent, and it’s Zygarde vs. Zygarde!

Plot

After seeing the stadium infested with vines, Ash and Alain proceed to leave the stadium, and Alain asks Ash about Mairin's whereabouts. Ash tells him that she didn't want to get in the latter's way, so she asked Ash to not tell him. He then asks Alain if Mairin is important to him; Alain confirms it, and Ash offers help in looking for her. Once they exit the stadium, they meet up with Bonnie, Clemont, and Serena; Bonnie informs Ash that Squishy has wandered off. The group hears an announcement from Malva, addressed to the citizens of Lumiose City, warning them to stay away from Prism Tower due to the danger it possesses.

Squishy is seen heading to Prism Tower, and absorbs Zygarde Cells to transform into its 10% Forme to increase its speed. Bonnie senses where Squishy is going and runs off to catch up to it. Ash tells Clemont and Serena to go with her and informs them that he is going with Alain to find Mairin. Clemont gives Ash a communicator to keep in touch with him and Serena advises Ash to be careful. Concuurently, Sawyer, Shauna, Tierno and Trevor call out Sceptile, Ivysaur, Blastoise and Charizard respectively to help the citizens to safety from the vines. Professor Sycamore helps get people away from the roots as well, and remembers what Olympia said about the destruction of Kalos, and the role he, along with Ash and his friends, will play to stop the destruction.

Diantha rescues a civilian from the vines with the help of her Gardevoir, before she meets up with Officer Jenny, who informs the Champion that she has assigned her officers with the evacuation of the city, and that the roots are spreading throughout the city; Diantha asks her to lead her to the tower.
