As usual, to Jessie, James and Meowth, this is an opportunity they are unable to ignore. While they are chopping and carrying wood, Team Rocket overhear the shop owner and another employee mock Mateo about searching for the Crystal Onix. When the shop owner hears about this, he tells them about the "you break it, you bought it" rule before he puts them to work, since they don't have any money to pay him back for the items they ruined. Because of Meowth's outburst, Jessie and James accidentally drop the glass objects, causing them to break Team Rocket gets a great chill from seeing what had happened. Jessie and James begin picking up a few of the various pieces and admiring them, but Meowth yells at them to knock it off. Meanwhile, Jessie, James and Meowth arrive on Sunburst Island, and are in awe of the glass shops. He knows his grandpa saw the Crystal Onix and got him inspired, and that his grandfather even made a sculpture of the Crystal Onix. Mateo admits he needs inspiration, and thinks that capturing the Crystal Onix would do the trick. Ash sees some of them are good, but Mateo throws it away, breaking it people complained they aren't perfect, as they don't have that "soul", unlike his grandfather's glass sculptures. When he passed away, Mateo tried to carry on his legacy by making the glass sculptures himself, but failed in doing so. Mateo explains that a long time ago, when his grandfather ran the store, he made glass sculptures of Pokémon. Mateo asks his sister if she bothered these people, and the heroes tell him that she didn't before asking him why his store is empty. Marissa gets sad, but confirms that there is a Crystal Onix. Marissa is excited, thinking they saw the Crystal Onix, but is told they have not encountered it. The girl is Marissa, so Ash shows her the letter. The girl explains that her brother, Mateo, is upset and does not want to make glass. The heroes appear to see what is wrong, although the man wanders off. They hear a man complaining to a girl that she shouldn't have a shop with no merchandise. Tracey tells that artists use glass to make different objects and designs. Ash and Pikachu agree they would like to see the Crystal Onix, so they head off to Sunburst Island. Ash reads that if someone sees a Crystal Onix (which Tracey explains is a Onix made of glass), they need to report to someone named Marissa. Lapras gets the object and the heroes see it is a message in the bottle. Can they find it?Īs the heroes ride Lapras, Tracey notices something in the sea. The reason is her brother Mateo, doesn't feel inspired enough to work on glass work and needs the Onix to be inspired again. She asks for help to find a Crystal Onix somewhere on the island. Ash finds a message in a bottle from a girl named Marissa.
