Plot[]

While traveling through the woods, Ash Ketchum and friends encounters an Eevee that was apparently abandoned near a tree. They take it to its address in Stone Town and find it belongs to a little boy named Mikey. His three brothers are pressuring him into evolving his Eevee into one of three formsJolteon, Vaporeon, or Flareon—at an Evolution Party, where everyone uses evolutionary stones to evolve their Pokémon. However, the Evolution Party is disrupted thanks to a surprisingly successful mass theft by Team Rocket, and Mikey manages to use Eevee on its own to show his brothers that he does not need to evolve his beloved Eevee.
