In [[PASS25]], Piers and the other Galar Gym Leaders were informed by Leon and Sonia that Rose, Sordward, and Shielbert were working together. Hoping to discover whether or not Rose intended on bringing harm to Galar, the Gym Leaders gathered at [[Rose Tower]], only to be stopped by [[Oleana]]. While Oleana kept the Gym Leaders busy, Marnie, Henry, Casey, Bede, and Hop headed up an elevator to meet Rose, only to learn he wasn't in the building. Appearing on a video screen, Rose announced his intention to restart the [[Darkest Day]] and ensure the safety of Galar's future. Power Spot lights began appearing all over the region, causing Pokémon to start [[Dynamax]]ing at random. Piers and the others traveled to the Hammerlocke [[Energy Plant]], where they ran into Leon's group and found Rose ecstatic that his plan was a success.

Rose explained he meant no harm to Galar and sent Sordward and Shielbert to defeat {{p|Eternatus}} and prevent the Darkest Day from spiraling out of control. Despite their claims of being descendants of the heroes that once stopped the Darkest Day, Sordward and Shielbert were unable to win, forcing Rose to take their place. Oleana explained that Rose's actions were for the benefit of Galar and requested that everyone help stop Eternatus. The group agreed and made their way to the summit, where they found Rose had already been defeated. By teaming up, Piers, Marnie, Leon, Hop, [[Nessa]], [[Melony]], and Raihan managed to take Eternatus down, only for it to get back up and unleash its Eternamax form.

Eternatus easily overwhelmed everyone, but they were saved by {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}. The two Pokémon attempted to use the [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield|Shield]], only for Eternatus to snatch the items and Henry out of the air. Zacian and Zamazenta struck Eternatus with a double {{m|Giga Impact}}, causing a massive explosion of energy and light. Once the light cleared, Henry, Zacian, Zamazenta, Eternatus had all vanished. Piers and everyone injured from the explosion were all taken to recover from the effects of Eternatus's poison.
In [[PASS29]], Eternatus easily overwhelmed everyone, but they were saved by {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}.
