During a lunch break on their way to Nacrene City, our heroes catch a pair of Darumaka sneaking off with their food. Ash tried to stop them with Oshawott, but the sea otter Pokemon was quickly knocked out with a double flamethrower.
Ash brings Oshawott to a Pokemon Center, where he is attended to by Nurse Joy and her Audino. The sky glows a reddish-orange as sunset approaches. Oshawott is fully healed and Ash recalls him into his Pokeball. Iris passes a comment on the two Darumaka, and Nurse Joy subsequently reveals that together with a Darmanitan, the two Darumaka actually lived in harmony with the residents of the town they were in. However, the three Pokemon were not seen together anymore, and the two Darumaka suddenly started stealing food for no apparent reason.
Seeming to have sidetracked from the Darumaka, Iris notices a in the middle of the city. Nurse Joy then explains to them that the bell of the tower had stopped ringing, and the tower would soon be demolished. Iris expresses regret when Ash's stomach started growling. Aware that they have not eaten after the Darumaka had stolen their food, the group stays at the Pokemon Center for dinner.
As there is a full moon that night, Nurse Joy tells everyone that she will be preparing dumplings for them. Delighted, Ash and the group offer to help with the preparations. However, upon reaching the kitchen, the group are greeted again by the two Darumaka, who were ready to escape with their dumplings. With much speed and agility, the two Zen Charm Pokemon jump out of the window.
Y/n closed his eyes, extending his senses to track down the Zen Charm Pokemon. Pinpointing their location at the old clock tower, they then followed the two to the abandoned tower to find out the reasons for their actions.
After reaching, they were attacked by the two. After convincing the Zen charm Pokemon to explain why are they stealing food, they led our heroes to the top of the tower. Where the Darmanitan that they were normally seen with in it's Zen mode.
"Darmanitan, the Blazing Pokemon, and the evolved form of Darumaka. Darmanitan switches from Standard Mode to Zen Mode when it has little energy left." Ash's Pokedex beeped.
"So this is what Darmanitan in Unova looks like?" Bea asked.
"What do you mean?" Iris asked.
Y/n showed the others the data about Galarian Darmanitan.
"Darmanitan the Zen charm Pokemon. An ice type, and the evolved form of Darumaka. On days when blizzards blow through, it comes down to where people live. It stashes food in the snowball on its head, taking it home for later." Y/n's Pokedex beeped.
The Darumaka then showed them a out of shape hook, it didn't take long for our heroes to figures out why they had stolen the food. Cilan extrapolates that Darmanitan deliberately switched into Zen Mode to prevent the heavy bell from dropping to the bottom of the clock tower after the hook had broken. However, that also meant that it was not able to eat, causing the two Darumaka to steal food to feed their immobile companion. Iris then applauds their efforts, causing the two Darumaka to smile.
Suddenly, Darmanitan starts intensively glowing red, prompting Y/n and his friends to take action, as it would burn right through the floor. Palutena request the two Darumaka to use a double flamethrower once the hook is in the air, she also asked Cilan and Ash to sent out Pansage and Oshawott, to shape and cool the hook.
After everything goes to plan, Y/n took the hook and using aura steps, climbs to the ceiling and hangs it. Darmanitan deactivates its Zen Mode, the bell fell right into the hands of Darmanitan. With a great upward thrust, the bell now in mid-air, Darmanitan performs a series of leaps to the top of the bar, and grabs the bell before it could drop any further. He then places the bell back into the hook. With a triumphant leap off the bar, Darmanitan re-joins the Darumaka. They approach the group, grateful for what they have done for them. Ash advises the two Darumaka not to steal any more food, and they reply with a sheepish grin.
