The movie starts out with Molly reading a book with her dad. Molly flips through the book and sees a picture of Entei. She says that Entei looks like her dad. Then the phone rings and Molly's dad picks it up. Her dad says that he has to go back to work and says goodnight to Molly.

Molly's father (I'll call him Dad from now on) goes into a small cave with his assisstant. Dad starts to take pictures of the Unown and then he finds a box. He takes the tiles inside the box and the Unown appear. The Unown take him to somewhere else. Dad's assisstant notices that he is gone and that only the laptop and box remain.

Then there is a knock on the door and thinking that it's her dad, Molly answers it. The guy at the door was only Dad's assisstant. His assisstant told Molly what happened and she starts to cry. She then takes Dad's laptop and the tiles back to her room. She opens up the tiles and spells out Papa, Mama, Me. She also wished that her dad would come back. The pieces arise and crystal starts to surround the room in which she is in. Trapped, Molly stares at everything and then she sees Entei. Entei starts to say that she wished for her father back and Molly now realizes that her dad is back, as an Entei.

Meanwhile, Ash, Misty, and Brock are heading to the next gym. Suddenly, they meet a pokemon trainer named Lisa. Ash and Lisa decide to have a pokemon battle. Ash chooses Totodile and Lisa brings out her Granbull. Totodile uses Water Gun on Granbull which knocks it out. Lisa then brings out her Girafarig and Ash sends out his Chikorita. Girafarig uses Psybeam and knocks Chikorita out. Ash then brings out his Noctowl and Lisa gets out her Aipom. Ash's Noctowl wins with a dive. Then Ash sends out Bulbasaur and Lisa sends out her Butterfree. Butterfree uses Sleep Powder and Gust which knocks Bulbasaur out. Then there is a battle between Ash's Cyndaquil and Lisa's Mankey. Mankey loses because of Cyndaquil's Flamethrower attack. The final battle is between Pikachu and Quagsire. Ash commanded Pikachu to use a Thundershock but that had no effect on Quagsire. Quagsire then used a Water Gun on Pikachu but Pikachu got right back up. Pikachu did a Headbutt on Quagsire which knocks Quagsire out but that also made Pikachu dizzy. After the battle, they all go up to eat lunch. Ash asks Lisa if there is a pokemon center nearby and she says that there is one by Green Fields. After they're done, they go to Green Fields but they notice that the crystal has over run it. Team Rocket follows Ash.

Back in Pallet Town, Ash's mom is watching the news on TV. She asks Prof. Oak and Tracey if they are also watching the news and they are. They then go to Green Fields. They eventually meet up with Ash and the others. Molly is also watching the scene on TV and wishes for a mother. Entei goes to the pokemon center and takes Ash's mother away. Molly thinks that Ash's mother is her mother.

Then they all watch Prof. Oak find information on Entei. They find out that the Unown made Entei come to life. Charizard is also watching the news and flies out to help Ash. Then Ash gets an email. It's from Molly. They read the email and Molly says to stay out and to not interfere with her family. Ash, Misty, and Brock go out to rescue Ash's mother. Lisa hands Ash her PokeGear. They then go through the water in the tunnel. Team Rocket is watching them and decide to steal pokemon elsewhere. They head into their balloon. Entei sees the balloon and shoots out a powerful attack at the balloon. They crash. meanwhile, Ash calls out Bulbasaur and Chikorita. He tells them to help them up the path.

One reporter finds Ash and starts to interview him. Molly is watching the interview on TV. Ash's mom snaps out of her trance and sees that Ash is in trouble. Ash and his friends see the enterance to the building, but it's covered with crystal. Ash the sends out his Cyndaquil and tells it to use a Flamethrower on the crystal door. It does, but the crystal just grows back. Misty sends out her water pokemon and her Staryu uses a Water Gun on the door. Pikachu jumps into the stream and gets blasted to the other side. The others do this until Ash is the last one. He picks up the pokemon and then jumps into the other side.

Entei notices that they are inside and asks Molly if he should get rid of them. Molly says that she would rather have a pokemon battle instead. Entei obeys and an older Molly appears. They land on a field with flowers and grass. Ash and the others arrive around the same time too. Molly asks which one of them wants to battle her and Brock agrees to have a battle with her. Brock tells Ash and Misty to go find Ash's mother. They agree and run up the stairs.

The battle starts and Brock chooses his Zubat. Molly has a crystal pokeball in her hand and sends out Flaafy. The battle starts out with Zubat using a Supersonic which confuses Flaafy. And then Zubat uses a Wing Attack. Flaafy is stunned, but Molly tells it to use Thundershock which defeats Zubat. The next match is between Brock's Vulpix and Molly's Teddiursa. Teddiursa uses a Dynamic Punch which hits Vulpix. Vulpix then uses a Quick Attack and Molly tells Teddiursa to use Fury Swipes. Teddiursa keeps scratching Vulpix until it faints. Brock says that he has to get serious now and sends out his Onix. Molly sends out a Phanpy. Molly tells Phanpy to use a Rollout attack which defeats Onix in one hit.

Ash's mom finds a book about Entei. She asks Molly if she has read it and she said yes. Ash is still going up the staircase and Entei appears with Molly. She says that she wants a better challenge and Misty agrees to battle with her. Misty says that she uses water pokemon and Molly agrees that she will use water pokemon too. An oceam appears and rises up. Ash holds his breath until he can't hold it no more. He breathes and realizes that he can breathe here. Anyways, he starts to run up the staircase again. Molly sends out Kingdra and Misty sends out Goldeen. Kingdra beats Goldeen. While they're battling, Team Rocket are swimming in the water past them. Misty then brings out Staryu and Molly brings out Mantine. Mantine starts with a Whirlpool, but Staryu counters it with Rapid Spin. Mantine uses Take Down and defeats Staryu.

Ash goes up the final steps and reaches his mom and explains the whole story to her. Ash's mom then wakes Molly up and tells her that she is the mom of Ash and not her. Molly cries and crystal bursts out. Entei notices of what is happening. Ash brings out his Totodile to fight Entei but gets knocked out. Cyndaquil gets knocked out as well.

Ash tells Entei that he is not real and Molly cries more and more crystal comes out. Entei attacks Pikachu with his beams after Pikachu used a Thundershock. The beams hit while Team Rocket comes and sees what's happening. Ash saves Pikachu and the beams hit the wall. Charizard comes to the rescue to save Ash. The battle between Charizard and Entei begin. When the battle ends, Entei's foot is on Charizard. Then Molly tells Entei not to hurt Charizard and Entei takes his foot off of it. Ash's mom and Molly hug each other and start to leave but the Unown doesn't want Molly to leave.

The Unown start to make crystal walls everywhere but Entei blasts right through it and they start to run. They then see the Unown blocking their way out. Ash tries to run through the Unown, but an invisible wall stops him. Charizard does the same thing but gets blocked. Pikachu uses its electric attacks and the wall opens but then gets sealed up again. The Unown get mad and more crystal starts to appear. Then Entei comes and tells Molly that he was happy helping her and being her dad. He charges to the invisible wall and starts to slowly destroy it. Charizard and Pikachu also help. Molly tells Entei that she believes in him and Entei bursts through the wall and destroys the Unown. The Unown turn into tiles and they go through a portal. The crystal disappears and they are all back in Green Fields again.
