Max was feeling a bit down. He still didn’t have his own Pokémon yet and was starting to feel left out. But one night, he saw a shooting star, and wished that he had a Pokémon of his own.

Little did he know Jirachi, the Wish Pokémon, heard Max’s wish and decided to grant it, albeit in a different way than he expected. Elsewhere, Ash was left shocked to find himself suddenly transformed into a poochyena — Max’s new pokemon!
