Then, on her quest to find a partner, she meets Aino Megumi (Cure Lovely) and they begin to battle the enemy together.

Having learned that assembling all PreCards, you can get any one wish fulfilled, the team up with the fairy Ribbon to protect the world peace, transform, dress up and form change as they fight!
