While a kind and well-meaning person, Raleigh is shown to be quite naïve towards the present ways of the world, mainly due to his fixation on the past and spending so much time in his lab inventing and reading about his kingdom's history. It was this trait that allowed Alva to manipulate the young prince by tutoring him in both arcane science and the history of the Azoth Kingdom, while at the same time brainwashing him and gaining his complete trust over the years, all to fuel his own plans of taking over the kingdom with Raleigh as his puppet ruler.

After Alva shows his true colors by taking Magearna's Soul-Heart, disposing of its body, and seemingly killing Raleigh's sister Kimia, Ash and his friends, and all of the Pokémon on Nebel Plateau in a mass Hyber Beam assault, Raleigh is horrified at his mentor's betrayal and, after awakening from being put to sleep by Alva's Gengar, works to atone for his mistakes by helping rescue Nebel Plateau from Alva's last-ditch attempt to destroy all of his enemies after his original plans are foiled.

During this time, he apologizes to Ash for his foolishness in believing everything Alva had told him and acknowledges his naïveté resulted from him keeping himself secluded in his room and focusing on the past so much. Ash then suggests that Raleigh go out on his own Pokémon journey in order to expand his world view and learn more than just past history. By the end of the film, Raleigh has decided to take Ash's advice and leaves the Azoth Kingdom with his Slurpuff at his side, determined to become a more experienced and well-rounded person.
