Miyuki continues by discussing the hiatus and the reason why the anime was taken off the air.  She mentions that research was conducted into how the incident occurred with the help of doctors, the Japanese government officials, and the broadcasting stations.  She highlights the main cause of the issue was a scene where the colors red and blue were rapidly switched at a rate higher than 24 frames per second. She then notes early hypothesis on whether strong lights had played a role, but were proven false.  She mentions that the research found that striped or swirling patterns and the color red should be used with care.
 
The scene then switches to a board with letters, drawings, and postcards from viewers in support of the anime.  After focusing on two of the drawings, Miyuki thanks the viewers for the letters of encouragement. 
 
After the scene changes back, Miyuki makes a request for all viewers to watch television at a distance from the screen and in a room that is well lit.  The special ends with a shot of the Pokémon around Miyuki.
