{{Incomplete synopsis}}
<!--http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-episodes/10_28-drifloon-on-the-wind/-->
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} finally arrive at [[Valley Windworks]]. Upon their arrival, they meet [[Nurse Joy]], as well as two [[Marnie and Paige|younger Joys]] and their group of {{p|Drifloon}}. After getting to know the family, Nurse Joy realizes her husband has forgotten her lunch. Paige uses the Drifloon to {{m|Fly}} to the generator where her father works in order to bring his lunch to him. When she arrives, her father is seen fixing something with the assistance of his {{p|Ampharos}}.
<i>On the way to Eterna City, our heroes visit a Pokémon Center where they meet young Paige and her big sister Marnie, the daughters of the local Nurse Joy! Ash and his pals get their first good look at Drifloon—Marnie has three, which she uses to help her deliver lunch to her father while Paige takes the gang to meet Pokémon in the surrounding forest. Paige also reveals she and Marnie have a secret friend, none other than the legendary Suicune!


Meanwhile, Marnie takes Ash to a spring to meet her other Pokémon friend. Curious, Ash asks what Pokémon it is. She informs him that it is a {{p|Suicune}}. Ash is surprised, as it is a [[legendary Pokémon]]. Marnie insists that it is true.
Marnie's father and his Ampharos are working at the Valley Windworks Power Plant. Team Rocket tries to steal Ampharos, only to be shocked by Ampharos's Thunder. But the resulting explosion damages the Windworks, and when the lights go out at the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy sets out for the Windworks to see what's wrong. Paige wants to take her Drifloon and follow; Pikachu tries to stop her, but a gust sweeps all three of them away!


Soon afterwards, a storm begins. As Paige tries to prevent the Drifloon from blowing away, she is surprised to see she herself being blown away by the strong winds. Ash grabs Marnie's Drifloon and flies off in search of her. Meanwhile, using Karsten's car, the rest of the gang goes out looking for Paige and Ash. Unfortunately, a boulder is blocking the road and they can no longer continue. Marnie then rushes home to get help from her friend, Suicune.
Ash and his friends race to the Windworks to try and intercept them, except a looming storm blows Paige and Pikachu way off course. Ash finds them with the help of Marnie's Drifloon, but they're stuck up among the rocks and there's no way the others can reach them on foot any time soon. Marnie is determined to save her sister no matter what, so she asks Suicune to appear and help her. Suicune responds and quickly takes her to Ash and Paige, then brings everyone back to safety. With Nurse Joy's family reunited and the Windworks Power Plant fixed, our heroes can call it a day!</i>


Meanwhile, Ash has found Paige. The two of them decide to try to get home after the storm ends. As Ash and Paige cross a log (used as a bridge) they fall. Marnie appears with Suicune and saves the two. In the end, the family is reunited. Dawn and Brock want to know about Suicune, but it has already left. As they leave, Ash and Marnie exchange a knowing glance while Suicune watches them from the peak of a cliff.
==Plot==
{{Incomplete plot}}
{{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} finally arrive at [[Valley Windworks]]. They find the Pokémon Center and go inside, but nobody appears to be there at first sight. After some commotion, they meet [[Nurse Joy]], as well as two [[Marnie and Paige|younger Joys]] and their group of {{p|Drifloon}}. After getting to know the family, Nurse Joy realizes her husband has forgotten her lunch. Marnie uses the Drifloon to {{m|Fly}} to the generator where her father works in order to bring his lunch to him. Paige is upset that she doesn't get to go along as well, so Nurse Joy has Ash and her give the forest Pokémon treats.
 
While they are walking through the forest, Paige tells Ash that she has another Pokémon friend, but Marnie told Paige not to say the name of it to others. Paige realizes that she won't get in trouble if she shows Ash her friend, so she takes Ash to go see them. Paige leads Ash over to a lake and calls out for her friend, but gets no response. Ash asks what type of Pokémon it is, and she informs him that it is a {{p|Suicune}}. Ash is surprised, as it is a [[legendary Pokémon]]. Paige insists that it is true.
 
Meanwhile, Marnie arrives at the power plant. Marnie's father is seen fixing something there with the assistance of his {{p|Ampharos}}. At the same time, Team Rocket is shown looking through the bushes at the two of them. Meowth convinces the other two to try and steal the Ampharos. Marnie's father is warning her that a storm is coming when suddenly Team Rocket snatches Ampharos in a net and recite their motto. Marnie's father orders Ampharos to use {{m|Thunder}}, which sends Team Rocket blasting off. However, the explosion from the blast damaged the power lines.
 
Back at the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy is talking to Ash when suddenly the power goes out. Nurse Joy suspects that something happened at the power plant, and decides to go check it out. She tells Paige that she can't come, and Paige runs outside to go to the power plant. Pikachu attempts to hold her down as she tries to fly off with a Drifloon, but the winds in the storm are so strong that both Pikachu and Paige are blown away.
 
At the power plant, the Joys have fixed the power plant. Ash and friends ask them if they saw Paige, but they hadn't. Ash grabs Marnie's Drifloon and flies off in search of her. Meanwhile, using Paige's and Marnie's father's car, the rest of the gang goes out looking for Paige and Ash. Unfortunately, a boulder is blocking the road and they can no longer continue. Marnie then rushes home to get help from their friend, Suicune.
 
Meanwhile, Ash has found Paige. They shelter in a small cave. The two of them decide to try to get home after the storm ends. As Ash and Paige cross a log (used as a bridge) they fall. Marnie appears with Suicune and saves the two. In the end, the family is reunited. Dawn and Brock want to know about Suicune, but it has already left. As they leave, Ash and Marnie exchange a knowing glance while Suicune watches them from the peak of a cliff.


Exhausted and disappointed due to their previous loss, the Team Rocket trio spots a Suicune near the cliff and makes a vain attempt to catch it. But in the blink of an eye, the legendary Pokémon blasts them off with its {{m|Aurora Beam}}.

On the way to Eterna City, our heroes visit a Pokémon Center where they meet young Paige and her big sister Marnie, the daughters of the local Nurse Joy! Ash and his pals get their first good look at Drifloon—Marnie has three, which she uses to help her deliver lunch to her father while Paige takes the gang to meet Pokémon in the surrounding forest. Paige also reveals she and Marnie have a secret friend, none other than the legendary Suicune!

Marnie's father and his Ampharos are working at the Valley Windworks Power Plant. Team Rocket tries to steal Ampharos, only to be shocked by Ampharos's Thunder. But the resulting explosion damages the Windworks, and when the lights go out at the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy sets out for the Windworks to see what's wrong. Paige wants to take her Drifloon and follow; Pikachu tries to stop her, but a gust sweeps all three of them away!

Ash and his friends race to the Windworks to try and intercept them, except a looming storm blows Paige and Pikachu way off course. Ash finds them with the help of Marnie's Drifloon, but they're stuck up among the rocks and there's no way the others can reach them on foot any time soon. Marnie is determined to save her sister no matter what, so she asks Suicune to appear and help her. Suicune responds and quickly takes her to Ash and Paige, then brings everyone back to safety. With Nurse Joy's family reunited and the Windworks Power Plant fixed, our heroes can call it a day!

Please feel free to edit this plot summary to add missing sections and complete it.

Ash and his friends finally arrive at Valley Windworks. They find the Pokémon Center and go inside, but nobody appears to be there at first sight. After some commotion, they meet Nurse Joy, as well as two younger Joys and their group of Drifloon. After getting to know the family, Nurse Joy realizes her husband has forgotten her lunch. Marnie uses the Drifloon to Fly to the generator where her father works in order to bring his lunch to him. Paige is upset that she doesn't get to go along as well, so Nurse Joy has Ash and her give the forest Pokémon treats.

While they are walking through the forest, Paige tells Ash that she has another Pokémon friend, but Marnie told Paige not to say the name of it to others. Paige realizes that she won't get in trouble if she shows Ash her friend, so she takes Ash to go see them. Paige leads Ash over to a lake and calls out for her friend, but gets no response. Ash asks what type of Pokémon it is, and she informs him that it is a Suicune. Ash is surprised, as it is a legendary Pokémon. Paige insists that it is true.

Meanwhile, Marnie arrives at the power plant. Marnie's father is seen fixing something there with the assistance of his Ampharos. At the same time, Team Rocket is shown looking through the bushes at the two of them. Meowth convinces the other two to try and steal the Ampharos. Marnie's father is warning her that a storm is coming when suddenly Team Rocket snatches Ampharos in a net and recite their motto. Marnie's father orders Ampharos to use Thunder, which sends Team Rocket blasting off. However, the explosion from the blast damaged the power lines.

Back at the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy is talking to Ash when suddenly the power goes out. Nurse Joy suspects that something happened at the power plant, and decides to go check it out. She tells Paige that she can't come, and Paige runs outside to go to the power plant. Pikachu attempts to hold her down as she tries to fly off with a Drifloon, but the winds in the storm are so strong that both Pikachu and Paige are blown away.

At the power plant, the Joys have fixed the power plant. Ash and friends ask them if they saw Paige, but they hadn't. Ash grabs Marnie's Drifloon and flies off in search of her. Meanwhile, using Paige's and Marnie's father's car, the rest of the gang goes out looking for Paige and Ash. Unfortunately, a boulder is blocking the road and they can no longer continue. Marnie then rushes home to get help from their friend, Suicune.

Meanwhile, Ash has found Paige. They shelter in a small cave. The two of them decide to try to get home after the storm ends. As Ash and Paige cross a log (used as a bridge) they fall. Marnie appears with Suicune and saves the two. In the end, the family is reunited. Dawn and Brock want to know about Suicune, but it has already left. As they leave, Ash and Marnie exchange a knowing glance while Suicune watches them from the peak of a cliff.

Exhausted and disappointed due to their previous loss, the Team Rocket trio spots a Suicune near the cliff and makes a vain attempt to catch it. But in the blink of an eye, the legendary Pokémon blasts them off with its Aurora Beam.
