Ye Qing and the Dragon Tamer searched for Jirachi’s missing crystal but concluded someone had taken it, so Ye Qing resumed his Battle Frontier journey and set out to seek advice on training Milotic.

• Levis revealed that the unusual Pokémon Egg was Manaphy's and described the People of the Water, the Water Palace, and a rumored lost world of extinct Ancient Pokémon.
• Ye Qing weighed the risks, then agreed to help Levis and presented himself as acting on behalf of Mewtwo and Mew.
