Plot

Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.

Eevee attempts to travel discreetly with a basket of cookies, but it trips and accidentally spills them near Charmander, Pikachu, and Clefairy. When Charmander takes one, Eevee tears it out of its grasp.

In a flashback, Coconut gives Eevee a basket of cookies made from a love potion she concocted. She plans to give them to Almond in order to make him fall in love with her, but Eevee volunteers to deliver them to prevent anyone from suspecting anything.

In the present, Charmander tries to ask why Eevee is acting strangely, but it hurries away. Eevee then trips once more, spilling the cookies again. Eevee tries to chase after them, but comes face to face with a Primeape. Primeape snatches and eats one of the cookies, worrying Eevee that it will fall in love with Coconut. Instead, Primeape falls in love with Eevee and squeezes it into its grasp. Primeape begins to plan a wedding between Eevee and itself, prompting Charmander, Pikachu, and Clefairy to offer their congratulations. When Eevee makes it clear that it wants no part in this, Pikachu and Charmander attack Primeape to make it let go.

With Primeape down, everyone runs away, but it soon gets back to its feet and chases after them, believing they have kidnapped Eevee. Right as Primeape traps Pikachu and prepares to attack it, Charmander pressures Eevee to reject its affection. Eevee is hesitant, but ultimately asks Primeape to be friends instead. Right as this happens, the love potion wears off, causing Primeape to become furious. Primeape chases after Eevee, who blames Coconut for failing to make an effective love potion.
