Synopsis
Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup have been saving Townsville for many years. But when a portal that the Professor recently invented starts malfunctioning, the Girls discover their past selves: the 1998-2005 Powerpuff Girls! To save their dimensions from being destroyed, they must team up with the 1998-2005 Girls to go through other dimensions, while also meeting their other past selves, such as the 2014 Girls, their 2006-2007 PPGZ's, and the 1992 Girls.

Plot
The film begins with a stage with the red curtains above. Bubbles thanks the audience for coming as she tells us that this is the story of how the Powerpuff Girls met their past selves and teamed up with them. She then starts reading the opening quotes (from the 1998-2005 series) on her paper. As she reads them, the curtains open to reveal a skyline of Townsville.

Nineteen years after defeating Mojo Jojo (Roger L. Jackson) and his evil primate gang, Powerpuff Girls Blossom (Amanda Leighton), Bubbles (Kristen Li), and Buttercup (Natalie Palamides) discover what it feels like to work together ("Townsville Is Where We Belong"), while also meeting up with Jared, Barry, the Derbytantes, and other classmates, as well as friendly Rowdyruff Boys Brick (Bill Hader), Boomer (Zach Woods), and Butch (Nick Kroll). The next day, Professor Utonium (Tom Kenny) invents a time portal and the Girls are amused. Afterwards, Amoeba Boys Bossman (DJ Khaled), Slim (Will Arnett), and Junior (Lil Rel Howery) break in and rewire the circuits of the portal, thus making it malfunction and start releasing the Powerpuff Girls' past selves.

On the way to school, Bubbles wanders around the streets, thinking about the important things in her lifetime ("Important Things In Life"). The Girls enter the school, and Bubbles says that the school is really lit, as Blossom gets a crush on Jared. Buttercup asks Blossom if she's gonna talk to him, and Blossom tells her that she hasn't decided yet.

At lunch, Blossom talks to her sisters about the past of Townsville, in which she learned about. Bubbles tells Blossom that wisdom, humility, and honesty are the three things that she is looking for, even though she is the cute one. Brick, the leader of the friendly Rowdyruff Boys, calls Blossom, and he tells her that he found out about the other versions of the Powerpuff Girls. He also tells her that he got a footage of the Amoeba Boys tampering with the Professor's portal. At the Girls' table Bubbles tells Buttercup that the past comes before the present. Blossom later comes back to the table and tells Bubbles and Buttercup that there really are other versions of the Powerpuff Girls in main, parallel, and alternate universes.

Later, when the Girls got back from school, they discover that the portal had been malfunctioning. After trying to fix it, the portal inadvertently brings in their 1998 animated selves (Cathy Cavadini, Tara Strong, and E.G. Daily). They tell them that nothing is what is seems in all the dimensions, and that the now-powerful Giant Fishballoon (Kevin Michael Richardson) is coming back to destroy them. The next day, the six girls fly over to their school, only for Miss Keane (Jennifer Hale) to realize that there were six Powerpuff Girls in the school, leaving her confused. They then fly over to the Mayor’s office, only for the Mayor (Tom Kenny) to get confused about their differences and get his assistant Ms. Bellum to get them out. Back at home, the Professor is concerned about their differences and looks, as well as why the portal was malfunctioning, and tells the six girls that their universes are getting destroyed. So he tasks the six girls to get more of their old selves to put together a team.

In their room, they think of a plan to stop the Fishballoon by joining forces with each other ("Getting The Team Together"). They later sneak into the Derbytantes' lair, thus sending the 1998 Girls to sneak up on Maylyn (Kate Higgins), who later discovers that there are two Buttercups, two Blossoms, and two Bubbleses. They later talk about why the portal had been malfunctioning. Bubbles tells the Derbytantes the story about how the Professor created them and how the Girls and Mojo Jojo became enemies after he filled all the primates with Chemical X, as well as how they were dubbed "The Powerpuff Girls". Once the six Girls got home, the portal brings in the 2014 Girls (also Cathy Cavadini, Tara Strong, and E.G. Daily), who offer to help them with their mission.

The nine meet up with Blisstina Utonium (Olivia Olson), who shows them the Orb of Main, Parallel, and Alternate Universes (“A Beautiful Life”). The ten girls fly to different universes with a time machine: first the 1992 universe, then the 1998-2005 universe, the 2014 universe (“What We Did In The Past”), and finally the Powerpuff Girls Z universe.

Mojo Jojo, Fuzzy Lumpkins (Jim Cummings), Princess Morbucks (Haley Mancini), the Amoeba Boys (Arnett, Khaled, and Howery), the Gangreen Boys (Tom Kenny, Jeff Bennett), HIM (Sam Marin), Duplikate (Jill Talley), Bianca Bikini (Lily Vonnegut), Barbara Bikini, the Sporde (Ben Diskin), Silico (Jason Spisak), Gothra (Conrad Vernon), Sedusa (Kristen Wiig), Packrat (also Spisak), Bernie Bernstein (Tom Kenny), Manboy (Maurice LaMarche), the Broccoloids (Jeff Bennett), Chelsea (Kirby Howell-Baptiste), and the other villains all travel to the 1998-2005 dimension, and make a deal with the Fishballoon to defeat the Girls once they show up.

The Girls make it to the 2016 universe. They face Mojo and his gang, and try to battle him, but they are all outnumbered. Blossom tries to unleash the other versions of the Powerpuff Girls using the Orb of Alternate Universes, but the other Girls stop her from doing so. The villains easily defeat the Girls, sending them to the junkyard. After an argument between Bliss and 2016 Blossom, the Girls all split up.

2016 Bubbles gets heartbroken about what 2016 Blossom did to them and starts crying. 2016 Buttercup comforts her, and tells her that there's no end of friendship ("We Don't Want To Be Far Apart") and 2016 Bubbles feels better and hugs 2016 Buttercup, and then they went home.

Meanwhile that night, a sad 2016 Blossom is sitting alone in the middle of the junkyard. She starts crying because of the argument she and Bliss had earlier. 1998 Blossom comes to her and tells her that it is never too late to do the right thing (“The Right Thing To Do”). Unfortunately, Princess Morbucks kidnaps the Blossoms and takes them back to the 1998-2005 universe, sending them to Mojo Jojo’s lair. The next day, 2016 Bubbles, 2016 Buttercup, 1998 Bubbles, and 1998 Buttercup discover that the Blossoms have been kidnapped, and manage to tell Bliss about it.

The Bubbleses and Buttercups arrive and tell Bliss that the Blossoms have been kidnapped. The other Powerpuff Girls arrive too, but Bliss tells 2016 Buttercup that she cannot come because of what 2016 Blossom said to her. The Girls (except for Bliss) fly to the 1998-2005 universe. Meanwhile, 2016 Mojo Jojo reveals to the Blossoms that he is now working for 1998 Mojo Jojo. The Mojo Jojos activate the killing machine to start erasing the Blossoms forever. The Girls arrive and were gonna rescue the two from the machine. However, they refused to rescue the two after 2016 Buttercup told them about how 2016 Blossom insulted Bliss yesterday. So they all left them behind.

Later, they were all hanging out in Town Hall, but they were not happy. Bliss doubts her selfish desire about the other versions of the Powerpuff Girls (“Selfless”), and realizes that Blossom was right: the best way to defeat them is to unleash the Powerpuff Girls of Infinite Earths, and 2016 Buttercup realizes how much of a jerk she was about what she said. Bliss tells the Girls that she has to unleash the Powerpuff Girls of Infinite Earths because that’s what 2016 Blossom always wanted, and then tells 2016 Buttercup that she wants to come with them back to the 1998-2005 universe to rescue the Blossoms. 2016 Buttercup agrees, and lets Bliss come with them. So they went back, but this time, they actually rescue the two from the machine. The Buttercups unplug the machine. 2016 Blossom and Bliss reconcile and the Girls promise to work together, this time as a team, and fly back to the 2016 universe.

2016 Blossom gives up her leadership to Bliss, who uses the Orb of Main, Parallel, and Alternate Universes to form the “Powerpuff Girls of Infinite Earths”: the Powerpunk Girls, the Powerpup Girls, the Powerpuff Animals (Blossom as a walrus, Bubbles as a bee, and Buttercup as a flamingo), the 1920s Cartoon Girls, the dancing robotic Powerpuff Girls, the Powerpuff Girls Doujinshi (Rachel Matthews, Ariel Winter, and Jillian Bell), Bunny (Awkwafina), Bell (Kristen Bell), Bloom (Rachel Bloom), Bullet (Kate Micucci), and many other versions of the Girls. They easily overpower the Villains, and then, the Powerpuff Girls activate Dynamo to take out the bad guys. When Mojo Jojo and his crew have surrounded the Girls, the Professors from other universes, as well as the Rowdyruff Boys, the Derbytantes, and everybody else, come to their rescue, with the Derbytantes finally taking down the bad guys. Then, Mojo Jojo's evil primates arrive, but Bliss and 2016 Blossom work together to fight all the primates while singing Karmin’s “Brokenhearted”, joined by the 2016 Bubbles, 2016 Buttercup, the 1998 Girls, the 2014 Girls, the PPGZ girls, Professor Utonium, The Mayor of Townsville, Ms. Bellum, Maylyn, and the Rowdyruff Boys. The Girls finally defeat Mojo Jojo; however, 2016 Blossom sacrifices herself to defeat the Giant Fishballoon by plummeting him onto the ground, causing a huge explosion.

All of the Girls, including Bliss, Professor Utonium, Maylyn, and the Rowdyruff Boys look for 2016 Blossom until Bliss finds 2016 Blossom’s unconscious body. Bliss tries to wake 2016 Blossom up, but it was no use. Devastated, Bliss hugs and mourns over her sister, who wakes up, and reveals to Bliss and the others that the Fishballoon had already been shrunken, meaning that she has done what’s right. Bliss was happy that 2016 Blossom did the right thing, and 1998 Blossom says that she was proud of 2016 Blossom. Bliss then uses the Orb to send him to the Teen Titans GO! universe.

With the Townsvilles finally at peace, all of the Girls are sent home to their respective dimensions. Robin, Starfire, Beast Boy, Cyborg, and Raven arrive and reveal to the Girls that The Fishballoon had tried to take over the Townsvilles, and Blossom knows the right location for it: the exact same zombie dimension that the Titans sent 2013 Trigon to (which he somehow escaped from). Raven opens a portal using her magic to send the Fishballoon there.

One week later, 2016 Blossom gives Bliss a new laboratory of her own, which is next to the Professor’s, and the two share a hug. The 2016 Powerpuff Girls are glad that they don’t have to endure another multiverse-threatening crossover for at least another year, and they make a promise to keep saving Townsville no matter what happens (“The Big Finale”). The narrator says “And so once again, with the help of all of their past selves and main, parallel, and alternate versions, the day is saved, thanks to: The Powerpuff Girls! Close the curtains and let the end credits roll!” And then the song ends and the curtains close ("American Girl"), ending the film and the series.
