The Six Heroes (Japanese: 六英雄(ろくえいゆう) Six Heroes) are a group of Pokémon that once belonged to the Ancient Adventurer, Lucius. Each of them was caught within an Ancient Poké Ball by Lucius, which were all scattered across the various regions of the Pokémon world after they were separated from their Trainer 100 years ago. Gathering the Six Heroes was the main goal of both the Rising Volt Tacklers and the Explorers so they could reach the sealed Laquium in Laqua for their different reasons.

The Six Heroes

Each of them had some of Pagogo's energy passed to them so they could help it seal Laquium away in a giant energy barrier to protect the world from it, which greatly weakened Pagogo in the process. As of Beyond the Shining Rainbow, all heroes were gathered by the Rising Volt Tacklers and were put under Liko and Roy's care. As a result, Pagogo's power was fully restored by them, which allowed it to unseal the Laquium.

In Where the Adventure Leads, the Six Heroes were released from their Ancient Poké Balls when Lucius passed away, but unfortunately, they went berserk due to Spinel's Laquium sphere, except for the Black Rayquaza, who wasn't affected by the mist. As a result, they separated from Liko and Roy. In the aftermath, the heroes, except Rayquaza, were captured by the Explorers and contained in restraining barriers.

In The Six Heroes Unleashed!, the Explorers used the five captive Heroes in a trap for the Rising Volt Tacklers, using the Super Strong Spheres to push them to their limit.

In HZ125, the Six Heroes were rescued from the Explorers by the younger Rising Volt Tacklers and Amethio. They were then released back into the wild where they would be safe from the Explorers, but promised Zygarde to lend them their strength when the time was right.
