They discover a garden party honoring the Eevee's trainer, Mikey, and in attendance are all the best Pokémon trainers specializing in stone evolution. With Misty's support, Mikey refuses to evolve his Eevee for battle and keeps him as a best friend instead. Although his brothers scoff, it is Mikey's unevolved Eevee that eventually defeats Team Rocket's attempt to steal all the evolved Pokémon and teaches all present to have the courage to follow their own paths.
