Plot
Five Clefairy, one of them Shiny, are dancing on a forest hilltop. Noticing something, they quickly run off. In a clearing, a Snorlax is eating Pecha berries. The Clefairy continue their dance in front of Snorlax, but the Shiny Clefairy finds it difficult to match the others' rhythm. Due to the moon's power, the Clefairy grow fairy wings on their backs and start rising into the sky as Snorlax looks on in amazement. The Clefairy start flying around in the sky, but the Shiny one cannot maintain itself and starts falling. Its fall is broken by Snorlax's squishy belly, and the other Clefairy gather around it to check on it. The Clefairy look at the sky where a meteor shower is visible. As all the Clefairy hug each other, the Shiny one looks happy. Later, the Clefairy fall asleep around Snorlax (as a Cubone looks on), with the Shiny Clefairy practicing Metronome. The scene changes to Clefairy's "Metronome Sleep" style being recorded in the Sleep Style Dex.
