As our heroes sail towards their next destination, a periscope comes from underneath the water capturing every move that our heroes make. While James and Meowth power the submarine, Jessie continues spying on Ash and gang. As they exit from the vessel, Ash spots a Pokémon Center while May adornes a group of Pokémon nearby including Chikorita, Igglybuff, and Marill. Joy of the Pokémon Center appears to welcome Ash and everyone to the Pokémon Center. While three young people walk by, Ash overhears the conversation and asks Joy. She responds stating that they are participating in Pokémon Orienteering. With a questionable remark on Ash's face, he then asks Joy about Pokémon Orienteering. Joy explains that it is a cross-country race in which competitors use a map and compass to find their way through unfamiliar territory. Brock quickly interrupts the conversation with his usual romance techniques but is dragged again once more by Max. Night falls upon our heroes, as everyone is gathered at a table within the Pokémon Center. Everyone begins discussing the Pokémon Orienteering, with Ash to participate with Pikachu, May to participate with Eevee, and Brock to participate with Bonsly. Explosions can be heard overhead signaling the start of the competition as every trainer is given a map and a compass of the surrounding area. Joy then displays the medal that will be presented to the winner of this contest and also reveals an extrodinary amount of food that will also be presented to the winner. With the quick phrase of "Start" from Joy, everyone dashes of into the distance towards the next destination. While everyone heads in opposite directions, in search for the best path to the location. Meanwhile, Ash and Pikachu are walking across a log as a faint wind blows and knocks Ash and Pikachu down as they grasp onto the underside of the log. May begins crossing the river by jumping across lodged rocks but looses her fall and plumles into the river as Eevee then follows. Brock studies his compass as Joy-san walks across his path. While Brock moves towards Joy's location, Bonsly attacks Brock sending him blasting off into the sky while Joy stands around confused.

James and Mime Jr. are climbing a rock structure as they finally reach the top and arrive to a stone statue resembling a Lunatone. James rushes over to the statue and grabs the stamp of approval to show that he successfully arrive at this checkpoint. Max chases after Munchlax as it dashes off into the distance. Jessie and Meowth are atop a cliff adorning the glorious scene of the ocean and surrounding area.

As they exit from the vessel, Ash spots a Pokémon Center while May adores a group of Pokémon nearby including Chikorita, Igglybuff, and Marill. Joy of the Pokémon Center appears to welcome Ash and everyone to the Pokémon Center. While three young people walk by, Ash overhears the conversation and asks Joy. She responds stating that they are participating in Pokémon Orienteering. With a questionable remark on Ash's face, he then asks Joy about Pokémon Orienteering. Joy explains that it is a cross-country race in which competitors use a map and compass to find their way through unfamiliar territory.
