Plot
The Brave Asagi arrives in Paldea, Liko's home region. As Dot notices that her Nidothing suit smells bad, Liko acknowledges that being back home feels nostalgic. She also realizes that this will be her first time in Paldea with Sprigatito. They make a landing, with Mollie and Orla going out to buy food, and Friede going to drop Liko off at her house. They admit how much they will miss Liko while staying true to the fact that it would always lead to this. Liko walks outside with Friede, believing that her journey is over. She briefly sees Dot through one of the windows as Roy comes out too, wanting to see more of Paldea for the first time.
