Thanks to the Explorers' plan, the black Rayquaza has finally appeared! Rico and Roy are overwhelmed by its immense power. But if they want to convey the feelings of Terrapagos, and their own feelings, now is the time— The two have had so many encounters and experiences since the day they set out on their adventure with their Pokémon... Now, the battle against Rayquaza begins, where they will put everything they've learned into it!

Coral's last words were, "I'll summon Rayquaza..." Using this clue, Freed tracks down the island where the Explorers' hideout is located. Rico, Roy, Freed, and Landau head to the island, but what awaits them there is Spinel's trap! Can Rico and the others stop the Explorers' plan to capture Rayquaza...?

The "Sea Diglett Bun," a famous confection limited to 30 boxes a day, can only be obtained by waiting in line. Rico and Roy get their hands on the "Sea Diglett Bun" without having to wait in line as a thank you for helping the shop owner. Meanwhile, one of the Explorers is also waiting in line at the shop, seeking the "Sea Diglett Bun"... On their way back to the Brave Asagi, Roy notices a challenge letter stuck to Hogeta's back...!?

The Rising Volteckers arrive at the beach in the Paldea region. Rico and Roy enjoy spending time with the sea Pokémon, but Hogeta is swept away by the sea and in grave danger! The one who saves them from this predicament is the sea hero, Dolphinman! Roy is thrilled by the cool Dolphinman. Meanwhile, someone is plotting to film Dolphinman's transformation scene, which "no one has ever seen before"...?

Dot's mother, Blanca, has arrived on the Brave Asagi! It seems Blanca has come to pick up Dot, who was on board on a "trial period"... Rico and Roy, wanting to stop her, decide to listen to Dot's story to find out her true feelings. The untold story of Dot's joining the Rising Volteckers is now revealed...!

Riko and Nyaoha were practicing battling with Roy and Hogeta! ...But then an accident happened and Nyaoha injured Riko... Riko tried to reassure her, saying, "It's not your fault, Nyaoha," but Nyaoha seemed to have something on her mind... Nyaoha jumped out of the Brave Asagi and headed to the breeder's house where she was born and raised...!?

Rico, Roy, and Dot went shopping in Tetsuron Town, a town famous for its industrial products. Along the way, Dot got separated from Rico and Roy. Reluctantly going off on his own, he encountered Kanuchan, a Pokémon who makes hammers by hammering scrap metal! Kanuchan seemed interested in something Dot had bought...!?

On the Brave Asagi, which was temporarily docked after the storm, Molly was giving the Pokémon health checkups. When Riko went to examine Hatenna, Hatenna sensed someone's presence...! It turned out that a Ringed Rat had wandered onto the ship! It's strange that a Ringed Rat is alone when they usually act in pairs... Could it be an emergency?!

The Rising Volteckers receive a request from an archaeologist acquaintance of Fried's to move a rock at an archaeological excavation site, and they head to the site! However, they can't seem to start the work... It seems that a ferocious Krookodile and a Krookodile are getting in the way. Rico, Roy, and Fried go to the ruins to investigate and find out the truth...!?

A listener sent a question to Gurumin's live stream: "There's a tag battle tournament coming up, but my partner Perfuton doesn't want to team up with anyone and is feeling down, which is worrying." Rico, Roy, and Quass were asked by Gurumin to solve the problem! After hearing the story, it seems that Perfuton is in love...!?

The Rising Volteckers have finally run out of funds... In order to raise money, Freed and Cap accept a request to search for a lost Pokémon, Anokusa! Rico, who has to give a presentation on "Ideal Bonds" in class, also decides to help with the search for Anokusa with Roy in order to observe Freed and Cap...!?

Yama x Bocchi Boromaru perform the opening theme "Haro" in a special live version! New anime information will also be revealed in a special episode of Professor Freed's Pokémon Seminar!

Rico's grandmother, Diana, is disembarking from the Brave Asagi. Rico and Roy secretly begin preparations with their friends and Pokémon for Diana's farewell party! Meanwhile, Amegio, who felt his own inadequacy after battling a black Rayquaza, makes a certain request to Hambell in order to reach even greater heights...

Just when it seemed that the matter was settled after Roy's feelings reached Lapras of the Six Heroes, a black Rayquaza, the very thing the Rising Volteckers had been pursuing, suddenly appeared in the sky! Roy was eager to battle, but Amegio of the Explorers intervened! Faced with Rayquaza's enraged reaction to the attack, Rico and the others were in a pinch... At that moment, Terrapagos's body began to glow—!?

Thanks to Freed's plan, Lapras finally emerges from the white mist. Its glowing form, resonating with Terrapagos, makes one wonder if it is indeed one of Lucius's Six Heroes...? However, Lapras and its Pokémon companions launch an attack on the Brave Asagi! The naval battle between the Rising Volteckers and Lapras begins—!?

A white mist singing voice—it's the rumor of a mysterious Pokémon that guides and saves ships lost in the fog with its song. Having received information that its true identity is the radiant Lapras, the Rising Volteckers head to the rumored sea area. They might just meet the Lapras of the Six Heroes...! Rico and Roy's hearts are filled with anticipation, but as the Brave Asagi lands and sails across the sea, it is suddenly enveloped in fog...

Another day of battle training! ...Or so they thought, until Hogeta slipped and fell! The cause? A mysterious purple liquid spilled on the battlefield... Roy decides to investigate the purple liquid with Hogeta. Meanwhile, Rico hears a mysterious "clank" sound...!? What exactly is happening to the Brave Asagi?

Based on Tepen's information, Rico, Roy, Freed, and Olio head to a Poké Ball factory in the Galar region. The factory is run by Karna, a Poké Ball craftsman who is interested in rare Poké Balls! Olio and Karna, being fellow craftsmen, hit it off, but then Karna makes a certain proposal...!?

Rico, Roy, and Fried visit Tepen's antique shop, run by an acquaintance of Diana. They hope to get some information about the ancient Poké Balls, but when they ask, Tepen says he knows nothing... As Rico and the others prepare to return to the ship, they discover that Roy's ancient Poké Ball is missing! Could it be that it was stolen by...?

Based on a sighting of a black Rayquaza obtained by Dot, the Rising Volteckers arrive in the Wild Area of the Galar region. However, the information turns out to be false... Seeing Dot's frustration, Rico suggests they make curry together, and they decide to take a break in the Wild Area. Meanwhile, at the Explorers headquarters, the executives are all gathered together...

Rico's grandmother, Diana, also joins them on the airship, and the Rising Volteckers soar through the skies once again. For Terrapagos, who has been dormant for many years, the airship is full of things he has never seen before. Rico is constantly being dragged around by Terrapagos, who is adventuring everywhere on his own, causing him a lot of chaos. Meanwhile, Nyaoha seems displeased that Rico is only paying attention to Terrapagos...

The Explorers, led by Amegio, have appeared to seize Terrapagos. A fierce battle is about to begin in the ancient castle! Freed and Amegio have fought countless battles together. What will be the outcome of this match? And can Rico and Roy, who have grown stronger through their many adventures, defeat Jill and Conia? Furthermore, the Explorers Hambell, Sango, and Onyx also join the fray—!?

Riko's pendant transformed into a mysterious Pokémon. Seeking its true identity, Riko and her friends head to her grandmother Diana's house, where they finally reunite with her in a hidden ancient castle. Diana recounts Lucius's adventures and the mysterious Pokémon "Terrapagos." Meanwhile, the Explorers, led by Amegio, who had been pursuing Riko and her friends, are approaching the castle…

The Pokémon found in the Galar Mine wasn't a black Rayquaza, but a Galarian Moltres, a symbol of the Six Heroes Pokémon that traveled with Lucius, holding an ancient Poké Ball! Rico and her friends desperately want to get close to Galarian Moltres, which is burning with intense rage and keeps others at bay. Winning battles isn't the only path to becoming a trainer—what kind of plan will they come up with, inspired by the words of Gym Leader Kabu!?

The Rising Volteckers have returned to the Galar Mine in search of a black Rayquaza. During their search, Rico and Roy get separated from Freed, but they hear a mysterious cry and decide to venture deeper. There, they find people and Pokémon who have lost all their energy and vitality! Meanwhile, the Explorers, led by Amegio, have also arrived at the mine in pursuit of Rayquaza...!?

Based on information from Kabu, Riko and Roy head to the Galar Mine in search of a black Rayquaza, but along the way they find a Hatenna lying unconscious. Molly's diagnosis is that its lack of energy is due to a "mental problem." Hatenna is constantly sensitive to the feelings of the creatures around it, which causes it pain. Unable to leave it there, Riko decides to take care of it herself...!?

Riko and Roy meet Kabu, the Gym Leader of Engine Stadium. They tell him that since Kabu is from the Hoenn region, he might know something about Rayquaza, another legendary Pokémon from Hoenn. Moved by Riko and Roy's feelings, he agrees to train them. Life is a journey of training until you die! Keep learning! Kabu's fiery training begins now!

The group arrives in the Galar region. Leaving their conspicuous airship behind, they decide to travel by land to the old castle where Riko's grandmother, Diana, resides. However, due to train service being suspended, they spend their free time in Engine City. Riko and Roy, along with Murdoch, head to the Battle Cafe, where they encounter Mitchell, a former pastry chef colleague of Murdoch's. But it seems the two have some kind of history…!?

Did Captain Pikachu fly? During the battle, Captain Pikachu appeared to be flying. Rico and Roy confront Freed to find out the secret, but he brushes them off. With the help of Orio and his friends, Freed finally gives in and begins to tell the story. It is the story of how Freed and Captain met, and the secret story surrounding the formation of the Rising Volteckers...

Kaiden and Hogeta are constantly fighting. Roy is troubled by the two who can't seem to get along, so he comes up with an idea to deepen their bond by having them team up and battle Captain Pikachu. However, even in battle, the two can't work together and end up fighting again... Meanwhile, turbulence appears in front of the airship Brave Asagi as it flies through the sky...!?

Rico's pendant has been stolen by someone. The Rising Volteckers deduce that the culprit is still nearby and launch a recovery operation. As Rico and the others search for the pendant, the "Ancient Monster Ball" containing Oliva, one of the Six Heroes Pokémon who traveled with the ancient adventurer Lucius, suddenly begins to glow. Guided by the light, where will they go...?

Riko has gone missing after going out shopping! Based on eyewitness accounts Dot has gathered online, the Rising Volteckers search Bowl Town, but no matter how hard they look, they can't find her... Sensing the presence of an unseen enemy, tension fills the group. In order to speed up the search, Dot makes a trump card and contacts... Nanjamo, the Gym Leader of Hakkou City and a popular video streamer!?

Roy and Hogeta, intrigued by the unusual Kaiden they encountered during their picnic, decide to go see him again. Kaiden is spending time alone, separated from his pack, and it seems he has some kind of secret…! Meanwhile, Freed spots a suspicious Pokémon near the airship. What awaits him when he chases after the fleeing Pokémon…!?

They're finally off to the Galar region where Riko's grandmother lives! ...Or so they thought, but a problem occurs with the airship's control system. While waiting for the system to be fixed, the Rising Volteckers decide to have a picnic. Riko enjoys making sandwiches with her friends, but she can't help but worry about Dot who's still on the airship...

Rico and Roy are once again confronted with the devastation caused by the wildfire. Rico decides to restore the forest for the sake of the wild Pokémon that lived there. With the help of her Rising Volteckers friends, Rico and her friends struggle to plant berries and cultivate the soil. As they watch their earnest efforts, something strange happens to Oliva! Furthermore, Rico's pendant begins to glow once again...!?

Rico and Roy head to the forest where Corsa encountered a black Rayquaza. Molly becomes interested and joins them. Along the way, the three see the horrific aftermath of a forest fire, but their destination remains largely untouched. Rico and the others begin searching for Rayquaza, but soon the three become separated. Meanwhile, Oliva, who lives in the forest, also makes a move…!?

Guided by Riko's father, Alex, Riko and Roy arrive in Bowl Town to meet Gym Leader Corsa. There, they meet Champion-ranked trainer Nemo! Together with Nemo, Riko and Roy visit Corsa, but the gym is currently closed...!? What could have happened to Corsa...?

The Rising Volteckers arrive in the Paldea region where Rico's home is located. Rico, along with Fried and Roy, heads home and is greeted by his father, Alex. Rico tries to relax in his new home after being away for so long, but unexpectedly overhears Alex's true feelings: "I want you to stay home with me from now on." Will Rico's adventure, which has just begun, come to an end here...?

On the Rising Volteckers' airship, their stored food supplies were running low. Had someone been sneaking a bite...? With no other choice, the members split up to go shopping for more supplies. Meanwhile, Rico, who was left behind, efficiently completed her laundry and cleaning duties. She then decided to take a peek at the "special secret" that Roy had told her about...!

The Rising Volteckers continue their aerial journey. Rico and Roy decide to train with Captain Pikachu to become stronger in Pokémon battles! Nyaoha and Hogeta are no match for the overwhelmingly powerful Captain. However, through their training with Captain, Rico realizes something—!?

The Explorers, aiming for Rico and the pendant, land on the island and stand in the way of the Rising Volteckers. Rico and Roy work together, putting up a good fight with the combined strength of Nyaoha and Hogeta, but Amegio and Armorgaa take advantage of a lapse in their defenses and close in. At that moment, Rico's pendant shines once again! And something strange happens to the "Ancient Monster Ball" that Roy possesses...!?

Roy arrives at the Rising Volteckers' airship with the sole desire to see Hogeta again. However, a series of unfortunate events prevent him from meeting Hogeta. As the time for departure approaches, will the two be able to reunite...? Meanwhile, a submarine belonging to the Explorers, led by Amegio, is closing in on the airship—!?

The Rising Volteckers' airship makes an emergency landing on a remote island in the Kanto region due to a malfunction. However, the ship's Pokémon, Hogeta, has mysteriously disappeared. Riko and Nyaoha land on the island to search for Hogeta. Meanwhile, Roy, a boy living on the island, witnesses a mysterious Pokémon he's never seen before…!?

Nyaoha has been kidnapped by the Explorers. Rico is determined to get Nyaoha back, and Freed and the others agree to help. Rico and Freed track down the Explorers' hideout, but Amegio is waiting for them there...! Will Rico be able to get Nyaoha back?!

Rico is being pursued by the Explorers, a group after a mysterious pendant. She is rescued by Freed, who appears from the sky with Charizard, but she can't trust him either... What awaits her at the destination is Freed's group, the Rising Volteckers, and their airship, the Brave Asagi!

Riko, a girl from the Paldea region, enrolls in Sekiei Academy, a boarding school in the Kanto region. She's thrilled to receive her first Pokémon, Nyaoha, but Nyaoha is incredibly disobedient... Riko struggles to deepen her bond with Nyaoha. Meanwhile, suspicious figures begin to appear, seeking the mysterious pendant Riko possesses—!?
