Professor Laventon finds the {{player}} on [[Jubilife Village|Prelude Beach]] after they have fallen through the [[space-time rift]]. The appearance of the player has attracted the interest of the Professor's three [[first partner Pokémon]]. After the player awakens, the Pokémon run away and the Professor tasks the player with recapturing them. Impressed by their skill he takes the player to [[Jubilife Village]] to recruit them into the [[Galaxy Team]]'s Survey Corps. | |||
For most of the game, Professor Laventon can be found at all [[base camp]]s or his laboratory in [[Galaxy Hall]]. The player can report their latest survey results by speaking to Laventon, which entails any Pokémon caught and {{OBP|research task|Legends: Arceus}}s completed since the last report. He will then reward the player with [[Pokémon Dollar|money]] and [[Rank (Galaxy Team)|research points]] based on these results. | For most of the game, Professor Laventon can be found at all [[base camp]]s or his laboratory in [[Galaxy Hall]].

Laventon also observed that {{p|Unown}} resemble human writing from other lands, though no one takes him seriously. | ||
