In Watch Out!! Strong Rivals, Bede was seen contacting Oleana, who was in Hulbury with Chairman Rose.

Henry and Casey arrived in Hulbury in Toasty!! Battle Against Toxapex. After training with Marvin for a bit, Henry challenged and beat Nessa. While Casey battled Nessa in Splish Splash!! Gigantamax Battle, Chairman Rose invited Henry for a meal at the Captain's Table to celebrate his victory.

In Blazing!! Bede's Feelings, Bede tried to contact Chairman Rose after arriving in Hulbury, but was informed by Oleana that she and the Chairman had already left, much to Bede's frustration.

Trivia

• A little boy in Hulbury Station mentions the Battle Subway in Unova and wishes that the trains in Galar would do something similar to pass the time.
  • Coincidentally to Hulbury's possible real-world inspiration, Liverpool had one of the first Consulates to the United States.

Origin

Main article: Pokémon world in relation to the real world → Galar

Hulbury may be based on Liverpool, with the statue of the two Toxtricity that protect the town being likely based on the Liver bird. The Maximizers, the Hulbury-based band that plays during the ending credits, appears to be an homage to The Beatles, a popular Liverpool band during the 60s.
