Synopsis
On the road to Olivine City, Ash and co meet up with their old friend Todd Snap, who's on the lookout for the legendary bird Pokemon, Articuno. What they find is a Sunkern trapped in ice. They take it to a nearby lodge run by an elderly woman named Sophia.
She tells a story of how she and her lover Marcello were in love, but one day Marcello left to work in another town. She waited for his return but she didn't know he was in a coma and was hospitalized. Days turned to weeks, weeks turned to months. Sophia was about to give up hope until she got a letter from Marcello and went around asking for Sunflora. Marcello returned and they were happily married. But the happiness was not meant to last as a year later Marcello passed on. Ash and co. couldn't help but cry, that is until Marcello was revealed to be alive and well and that Sophia loves to make up romance stories which star the two of them.
Sophia reveals that every year for 49 years they would have an anniversary picture with some Sunflora. This was going to be their 50th anniversary but there were no Sunflora in sight this year. Will this unforeseen event ruin Sophia and Marcello's 50th anniversary? will Todd ever find Articuno? And can YOU listen to one of Sophia's stories without crying?
