Seeing how Liko and Roy are improving, Kabu challenges them to a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]], with Wakaba as his partner. The battle begins, with Liko's Sprigatito and Roy's Fuecoco facing Kabu's {{p|Centiskorch}} and Wakaba's {{p|Rolycoly}}. Fuecoco starts with Ember on Centiskorch, but its {{a|Flash Fire}} [[Ability]] cancels it out. After an ineffective Leafage from Sprigatito, Centiskorch strikes back with {{m|Flame Wheel}} and {{m|Bug Bite}}, while an intimidated Wakaba can only watch. Liko commands Sprigatito to blind Centiskorch with a big Leafage and run in with Fuecoco using {{m|Quick Attack}} and {{m|Tackle}}, respectively. However, Centiskorch fires a {{m|Flamethrower}} straight ahead, blowing them back hard and leaving Liko afraid for her partner getting hurt. Roy sings with Fuecoco, giving it the strength to get up as Centiskorch charges for another Flamethrower. Roy commands Fuecoco to counter with Ember, but it uses a newly learned Flamethrower instead. However, it is still not enough to overpower Centiskorch, whose Flamethrower [[Fainting|knocks it out]].

Seeing Roy's partner faint, Kabu leaves Liko to Wakaba telling her to consider it her test to become a Gym Trainer. Sprigatito overpowers Rolycoly's {{m|Smack Down}} with Leafage. Next, Wakaba commands Rolycoly to use {{m|Rapid Spin}}, which Sprigatito dodges and hits Rolycoly with a sharp Leafage. Seeing Wakaba's frustration and determination to win, Liko suddenly forfeits the match. Upset by the possibility of winning by default without actually getting stronger, Wakaba runs off, refusing to become a Gym Trainer so easily. Kabu speaks with Liko about her hesitance stemming from her compassion for others' feelings, having noticed that she let Roy win in the training before too. He tells Liko that she is clearly a kind girl, but she must also consider how her opponent feels since they are trying their hardest to win. He also tells Liko to think of Sprigatito, who was also denied the chance to get stronger. Liko realizes how upset Sprigatito is with her and apologizes, then heads off to find Wakaba, who immediately apologizes for how she acted. Liko apologizes as well, telling her she hadn't fully considered her feelings. The two make up and Wakaba decides to make a fresh start and resume her training.

Kabu tells Liko and Roy that he saw the Black Rayquaza several days ago during his morning run, flying over Motostoke before heading west, towards the [[Galar Mine]]. When Liko and Roy return to the [[Brave Olivine]], the [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] decide to delay their planned trip to [[Hammerlocke]] to check out the mine first. That night, Liko is left in deep thought by Kabu's departing words, telling her that winning battles is not the only path a Pokémon Trainer can take. She begins to wonder about the path her own {{pkmn|journey}} should take.
