Today we see the students at Mallow's family restaurant, Aina's kitchen owned by Mallow'w father.
Ash:Man I can't wait. I wonder what are going to get.
Mallow comes out and and greets them.
Mallow:High guys!
Group:Hi mallow!
Ash:So can we eat?
Mallow:Hold on.
The group then hear the door open and they see Y/n the restaurant.
Y/n:Hi is this the family restaurant?
Mallow(red):H-hi Y/n.
Y/n:Sorry I'm late. I had gotten a little lost.
Floette:He found himself on the other side of Melemele island getting out of ten pitfall traps.
Y/n:You traitor. You promised me you wouldn't tell them.
Floette:I made no promise.
Y/n huffed in annoyance as he sat down.
Y/n:So Mallow what was this cool new dish you wanted us to try out.
Mallow:It will be ready in a minute but I am hoping it will be the new signature dish.
Mallow heads into the kitchen. eating. Bounsweet is helping out and brings Ash a glass of water. A smell comes through from the kitchen which Pikachu follows. Mallow picks him up and asks him to help her out. Everyone is still in the cafe waiting for their food when Pikachu lets off a thunderbolt leaving Ash to wonder what is going on in the kitchen. A burnt Mallow exits the kitchen and presents their food, which is her legendary Alolan Stew. As she puts their bowls of stew on the table, Kiawe notices it looks a bit burnt.
Y/n:I am sure it is going to taste great.
They all take a bite out of the stew but are met by a giant shock.
Kia we:What a sh9cking after taste.
Lana:It tastes like a thunderbolt.
Ash:It feels exactly like how it feels when I get shocked by Pikachu.
Kia we:Don't tell me.
Mallow:Yep for the finishing touch I added a pinch of thunderbolt.
Y/n:A pinch it felt like the full force of thunderbolt.
Mallow sweat dropped as she picks up the bowls used for the stew. Mallow wanted to perfect it and make it the signature dish at Aina's Kitchen and tells Bounsweet they should keep trying until they perfect it. Abe offers to cook something up and it will be on the house so he can live up to his reputation. The others leave the restaurant and Y/n and Ash stay back.
Mallow:Thanks for coming guys.
Y/n:No Problem.
Ash:Hey what did Lillie mean when she said yellow nectar was out of season?
Mallow:Well-
Abe:Hey Mallow I'll explain.
Abe explains that Yellow Nectar can only be found at a certain time during the year with one exception. Abe isn't certain that is what Grandpa said leaving, Mallow annoyed. Ash suggests that they go and look for some the next day.The next day in the forest, Ash, Y/n and Mallow meet up.
Mallow:Are you guys sure about this? My dad wasn't really clear.
Y/n:It's alright. That's what friends are for. To help each other out.
Mallow blushes a bit red.
Mallow:T-thanks guys.
Rotom says to leave it to him as he begins a search for Yellow Nectar and brings up an image of a Pom-Pom Style Oricorio. Yellow Nectar is Oricorio's favorite. Rotom suggests they should find an Oricorio and follow it, but predicts their chances of finding one is at 8%, but Ash and Mallow decide to take the chance. Y/n states it might be faster if they ride on Gogoat so they all mount on his mighty steed. The search begins with no luck, Rowlet visits its old nest to ask Toucannon with no success. As time passes, Rotom notes that their chances of finding Oricorio are even smaller, but Mallow is determined not to give up and explains her dream is to make the Aina's Kitchen the number one restaurant in Alola. Team Rocket have overheard their conversation as James calls it a big dream and they change their plans to steal the Yellow Nectar themselves and sell it for lots of money. Bounsweet unleashes its Sweet Scent, which attracts Rowlet. Ash thinks of an idea, saying they can use Bounsweeet's Sweet Scent as it might attract Oricorio to come after Bounsweet like Rowlet. With Bounsweet on top of a large rock, Bounsweet unleashes its Sweet Scent, numerous flying types are attracted and soon an Oricorio lands on the rock. Ash Y/n and Mallow set off after Oricorio and follow it as it flies through a cave.

They emerge into a meadow where they spot Oricorio near the flowers and see the Yellow Nectar. A Baile Style Oricorio arrives and drinks the nectar, changing into Pom-Pom Style. Rotom explains that if Oricorio drinks a certain nectar, it can change its form.  Gogoat  runs forward, only to be captured in a net along with Pikachu and Rowlet.
Y/n:Is everyone alright?!
Ash:Yeah but I am a bit cramped.
Y/n:I can't reach. Mallow could you get Gogoat's pokeball please?
Mallow: I can try.
Mallow struggles to reach through but she gets a grasp of the spherical object and pressed the button turning Gogoat into a red light before the goat goes back into his pokeball.
Team Rocket say their motto and announce their intentions to steal the yellow nectar. Meowth reveals a vacuum and using a jet pack, begins to suck up all the Yellow Nectar. Bounsweet tries to stop Jessie and James, but James throws it away, which causes Bounsweet to use Sweet Scent, which attracts Meowth. Bounsweet leaps angrily into the air with a bounce and begins to glow

Once the light fades away Steenee stands attacks with a double slap attack on Meowth before freeing Ash and Mallow from the net. Ash has Rowlet destroy Meowth's machine, which releases the Yellow Nectar. Steenee continues to attack Team Rocket, but as they start to retreat, Ash isn't letting them get away. Pikachu goes to attack them, only for Bewear to appear and shield them from the attack before taking them back to her den. Once they're gone, Mallow starts collecting the Yellow Nectar.

Back at Aina's Kitchen, Mallow and Steenee present the legendary Alolan Stew to her friends. Mallow tells her friends to dig in. They all take a bite and find it delicious. They all ask for more, noting that it is a big difference from before. Mallow thanks them for their compliments and thanks Ash, Rotom, Rowlet, Y/n, Floette, Gogoat and Steenee for helping to track down the Yellow Nectar. Mallow explains it isn't easy to get Yellow Nectar when it isn't in season, but not to worry as it will be on the menu as their seasonal dish.
