Synopsis
A new day dawns. Ash and Pikachu are on the top of a hill. The camera lowers and the Pokémon D/P logo appears.
Ash, Pikachu, Brock and Dawn are on the top of a tree, maybe an evergreen tree while flying Pokémon, like Altaria, Fearow and Murkrow, along with non-flying type like Misdreavus are flying in the background. A Chatot flies near the camera.
On a tree's branches, three Cherrim, a Kricketot, a Pachirisu, a Burmy and a Budew are dancing with happy faces.
Ash and his friends are chasing a Glameow, maybe Johanna's, in a city. The Glameow runs towards an alley.
Then, they are crossing a Bibarel's dam and exploring a dark cave, where they find a Drapion.
Images of Ash, Dawn and Brock with their parties apear. Then, a image featuring Professor Oak, Tracey, Delia and Mimey appears, and after it, some images of Johanna, Professor Rowan, Nurse Joy, Officer Jenny and a Super Contest.
Then, with a picture of Paul with a serious face as a background, Ash sents out Turtwig, Staravia, Pikachu and Aipom, showing their moves (Razor Leaf, Wing Attack, Volt Tackle and Swift, respectively.)
Ash and Paul are fiercely looking at each other, next to their parties. Dawn sends out Piplup and Buneary, from two balls that may have seals. Dawn and Zoey appear, and then Team Rocket, smiling, with their Pokémon.
Ash and his friends are riding water bikes while Mantyke and Buizel jump over them and Manaphy appears.
Meanwhile, Palkia and Dialga are roaring, although they are in distant places; while Lucario is looking at them.
Ash, Pikachu and Brock are sitting on a giant Pokéball, and Dawn is sitting in front of it. They all smile.
