Professor Turo first contacts the player when they enter the [[Uva Academy]] for the first time, asking them to take care of the {{p|Miraidon}} that was once under his possession. Throughout the game, he frequently contacts the player as Miraidon gradually regains the powers it once lost. Once Miraidon is fully powered, Turo asks the player to travel to his laboratory at the [[Great Crater of Paldea]]. As the player, [[Nemona]], [[Arven]], and [[Penny]] traverse the area to reach Turo's laboratory, the Professor reveals that he succeeded in creating a [[Time travel|time machine]], which has brought Pokémon known as [[Paradox Pokémon]] from the distant future into modern time, including two specimens of Miraidon. | Professor Turo first contacts the player when they enter the [[Uva Academy]] for the first time, asking them to take care of the {{p|Miraidon}} that was once under his possession.

While the original Professor Turo wished to let Pokémon of the future keep entering the modern day through the time machine, the AI refuses to let the [[Paldea]] region's ecosystem be ruined by these time-displaced Pokémon and asks for the player's help in shutting down the time machine. The AI is, however, programmed to protect the time machine, so the player is forced to battle it and the Paradox Pokémon it wields against the AI's will. | ||
After the AI is defeated, the security system seals all [[Poké Ball]]s not labeled with Turo's ID, forcing the player to confront the AI's Miraidon with the one they've spent the entire game with. Once the opposing Miraidon has been defeated, AI Turo understands that the time machine cannot be shut down as long as it remains present to reboot the system, so it chooses to travel to the distant future its creator had hoped to see, bidding farewell to the player and their friends as it disappears into the time machine. | After the AI is defeated, the security system seals all [[Poké Ball]]s not labeled with Turo's ID, forcing the player to confront the AI's Miraidon with the one they've spent the entire game with.
