<i>With Arboliva’s forest ruined, Liko and friends set out to replant seeds and encourage new growth. Even Ludlow helps with his Quagsire, whose Rain Dance brings water to the dry land. After Arboliva restores the forest, Liko’s pendant glows and turns into the unfamiliar Pokémon from before. Liko, Roy, and the Pokémon then receive a fleeting message from a mysterious man, and Arboliva returns to its Ancient Poké Ball. Later, Friede and Liko’s mom discuss the situation, and Liko and Roy read about the Ancient Adventurer who traveled with six Pokémon. Liko’s grandma might know more, so it’s up to Liko to decide what’s next…</i>

Aboard the [[Brave Olivine]], [[Dot]] is about to upload her latest video, when she notices problems with the connection. She relays this information to [[Friede]], [[Murdock]], and [[Orla]], explaining why they haven't been able to get in touch with the others. Friede departs with {{TP|Friede|Charizard}} and [[Captain Pikachu]] to see where the problem might lie. He soon identifies the culprit as a {{p|Magneton}} that's emitting electromagnetic waves that cause the disturbance. Once Pikachu has shocked it and driven it off, the phone reception is instantly restored, allowing Liko's phone call to reach Friede. She explains the situation to Friede, and he goes to gather help. Soon, Friede meets up with Liko, Roy, and Mollie, followed by Orla and [[Ludlow]]. Ludlow pulls out a [[Dive Ball]] and calls out his {{p|Quagsire}}, whose {{m|Rain Dance}} helps to dampen the dry soil. Once the [[rain]] has ended, Arboliva uses its {{a|Seed Sower}} [[Ability]] to make the planted Berries grow into new trees. The restored trees allow the Pokémon that had fled the fire to return, much to Liko and Roy's pleasure.

Suddenly, Liko's pendant starts to glow and transforms into {{an|Terapagos|a mysterious Pokémon}}. Arboliva reacts to the Pokémon's presence by creating a big ball of light and surrounding Liko and Roy with it. Inside the ball of light, Liko and Roy find themselves in the middle of a thick mist. A silhouetted figure speaks from amidst the mist, but can't finish his sentence before the mist lifts and the two {{pkmn|Trainer}}s return to reality, the mysterious Pokémon transforming back into Liko's pendant in the process. The [[Rising Volt Tacklers]] barely have time to process this before Arboliva's Ancient [[Poké Ball]] starts glowing and it suddenly [[recall]]s itself into it. Taking this as a sign of Arboliva wanting to come with them, Friede asks Liko and Roy to look after the ball and has the team return to the airship. Unnoticed by the team, [[Spinel]] of the [[Explorers]] is spying on their every move.

At the [[Artazon]] library, Friede's attempts to find answers prove fruitless, but he's cheered up by the appearance of [[Lucca]], whom he's been trying to reach for a while now. Simultaneously, Liko shows Roy some picture books her father had given to Roy to read, and Roy is shocked to notice that one of the books is about the ancient adventurer [[Roy's grandfather|his grandfather]] has told him stories of. While Lucca identifies said ancient adventurer as a man named [[Lucius]] during her conversation with Friede, Liko and Roy read the story from the book: a hundred years ago, there was an adventurer who, accompanied by the {{Shiny|Black}} {{p|Rayquaza}}, befriended five strong Pokémon. Together, the adventurer and these six Pokémon traveled from [[region]] to region, until they found a place simply called "[[Rakua|paradise]]." The man, with his Pokémon friends, had gone on to settle down and live there, becoming forever known as the "ancient adventurer." Given the description of how one of the adventurer's partners had the ability to heal wounds, Roy deduces that it must mean Arboliva, which, in turn, means that the Ancient Poké Balls contain the adventurer's partners, and there are still four more of them out there, making him excited at the thought of finding them too.

Together, the adventurer and these six Pokémon traveled from [[region]] to region, until they found a place simply called "[[Laqua|paradise]]." The man, with his Pokémon friends, had gone on to settle down and live there, becoming forever known as the "ancient adventurer."

With Friede and Lucca, Liko's mother is unable to provide any answers regarding the pendant, since it was a gift to Liko from [[Diana (Horizons)|Lucca's mother]], and advises them to talk to her for answers. The {{p|Squawkabilly}} accompanying her ([[HZ024|later]] confirmed to belong to Liko's grandmother) takes flight and starts repeating the words "[[Galar]]" and "old castle." Lucca decides not to go see Liko, wanting her daughter to decide her own future. Liko, meanwhile, calls {{OBP|Alex|Horizons|her father}}, who says the storybook is based on tales of Liko's grandmother, so he believes the story to be just fiction. Roy, however, remains convinced of the story's authenticity, given their encounters with the Black Rayquaza and Arboliva.

Later, the Rising Volt Tacklers gather in a meeting. After sharing what he learned, Friede leaves the decision up to Liko. Liko decides that she wants to go meet her grandmother, with Roy also eagerly agreeing to the idea in the hopes of finding out more about the Ancient Poké Balls and the ancient adventurer. Since she travels around the {{pkmn|world}}, though, Liko has no idea where she is right now. Friede, however, believes that Squawkabilly's words were a clue on her whereabouts, so, following a unanimous agreement, the Rising Volt Tacklers decide to head for Galar next. Unknowingly, the airship is being observed by a {{p|Beheeyem}} and the Magneton from earlier, both belonging to Spinel, who's been thoroughly studying the Rising Volt Tacklers and declares that Liko's pendant will soon not be hers anymore.
