"Mysterious Form Baton Found!"
One day, Wario was sitting at home eating a plate of cakes when a small, strange creature called Splunk appears from nowhere and steals them from right under his nose. Upon realising his food is missing and spotting the theif, Wario gives chase, which leds him all the way to the Temple of Form where he discovers the Form Baton. Picking up the strange item out of curiosity, Wario accidentally triggers a trap, in the form of a giant boulder that proceeds to chase him out of the temple.

Luckily, Wario was fast enough to out run the boulder and escape with his new treasure unharmed, which he gloats about as soon as he had caught his breath.

Cheerleading to Victory
Later, Mona is shown speeding down the roads of Diamond City, late for her new job as captain of the cheerleading squad for the Diamond City Roughs so she drove her scooter straight into the stadium. Mona is then shown performing her routine, along with the other cheerleaders, which distracted one of the Players (who happened to be in love with Mona) for a moment.

When there were only a few seconds left in the game, the player who is love with Mona catches the ball and uses his love for her to motivate himself to barge pass three opposing players and score a touchdown. After the game, the player attempts to confess his love for Mona, but she rushes off before he can finish his sentence, leaving him to blurt it out in front of another cheerleader.

The Multiplayer Test
Here, 9-volt shows 18-volt his new Dual Screen Game and Watch. While 9-volt plays, 18-volt is breathing on 9-volt's shoulder, watching him play the Game and Watch. 18-volt then wants to play and they have a tug-of-war with the result being a broken Game and Watch. 9-volt then kicks 18-volt out of his house. He then sees a stand selling G&Ws and the game starts.

The game screen is the cashier showing a ? box when you win the microgame. the lives are the kids in line, and the number of microgames is on the cash register.

Once you win, 18-volt reaches for the Game and Watch, but so does 9-volt. The story ends with 9-volt apologizing by saying, "You'll always be my P2."
