History
Pre-series
100 years prior to the events of the series, due to the Explorers' arrival in Laqua atop the mountain, the Laquium there started growing and expanding and caused a huge explosion that blotted out the sun for three days and was felt all over the mountain, including Pericarp Town, which made many of the inhabitants, including a 3 year old girl, fear the Black Rayquaza, that flew into the skies just after the explosion. A member of the Explorers named Gibeon managed to escape Laqua and eventually reach Pericarp Town, where his injuries were treated by the mother of a 3 year old girl. He then started living there and established the new Explorers' headquarters there to observe Laqua.
Pokémon Horizons: The Series

After gathering all of the Six Heroes in The Truth Revealed!, the Rising Volt Tacklers followed the Black Rayquaza on their Brave Olivine to Mount Pericarp, where they landed on the mountain and Liko, Roy, Dot, and Friede went to Pericarp Town to gather information about Laqua. In Where the Land Meets the Sky, the kids met Yuha, a boy who believed that the Black Rayquaza would bring disaster, but after fighting off a swarm of Vibrava together, they convinced him that Rayquaza wasn't a bad sign. Meanwhile, Friede met the town's Matriarch, an old woman who had seen the Black Rayquaza when she was little, giving him some important information about Gibeon and what happened in Laqua. The group reunited again and started making their way up the mountain and towards Laqua with the help of Pagogo and the Six Heroes (except for Rayquaza).
In The Earthshaking White Zygarde, after the Explorers used their machines to activate the Laquium core, the crystals grew, causing a huge pink mist to begin to spread beyond the mountain, which was watched with alarm by the residents of Pericarp Town.
