The Energy Plant (Japanese: エネルギープラントEnergy Plant) is a facility located below Hammerlocke Stadium under the ownership of Rose. On the tower summit (Japanese: タワートップTower Top), Rose had been attempting to revive Eternatus in order to solve an upcoming energy crisis. The player and Hop pursue Rose here after retrieving the Rusted Sword and Rusted Shield from the Slumbering Weald to help Leon stop the Darkest Day.

At the tower summit, the player will first battle Eternatus in a Single Battle. No Poké Balls can be used in this battle. This battle gives no experience.
After defeating Eternatus, Eternatus transforms into Eternamax Eternatus. When Hop teams up with the player to confront it, no Pokémon can successfully use a move for the first three turns of the battle. Then, the player and Hop use their Rusted Sword and Rusted Shield items to summon Zacian and Zamazenta, which will team up with them against Eternamax Eternatus. The battle is similar in style to a Max Raid Battle (e.g., no Poké Ball may be used during the battle), but features some key differences:
Eternatus uses only one move per turn, which is always a Max Move.
The Energy Plant appeared in JN042, where Rose and Oleana visited it just as a burst of Galar particles escaped from the reactor core. In the next episode, Team Rocket was revealed to have infiltrated the facility as Workers under Giovanni's orders.
In JN044, Leon entered the Energy Plant just as the reactor core burst apart to reveal Eternatus. Before Leon could start battling it, it escaped through the roof and into the Hammerlocke Stadium battlefield above, prompting Leon to follow.
In JN045, Leon started battling Eternatus at the Tower Summit. However, his attempt at Gigantamaxing his Charizard failed when Eternatus absorbed all the Galar particles in the vicinity. Ash and Goh later joined Leon just as attempted to catch Eternatus. However, it managed to escape from his Ultra Ball and proceeded to transform into its Eternamax form. Ash and Goh tried battling it, but their attacks didn't faze it at all. However, using the Rusted Sword and Rusted Shield that Goh had found, they summoned Zacian and Zamazenta to their aid. With their help, they managed to defeat Eternatus, allowing Goh to catch it and thus end the Darkest Day.
