Meanwhile, [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Dot]] continue their journey back towards [[Naranja Academy]]. While Dot complains that she's thoroughly exhausted, [[Ann]] suddenly catches up with them, also on her way back to the academy after passing her test. She's surprised to notice that [[Liko's Hattrem|Hatenna]] and [[Roy's Kilowattrel|Wattrel]] have evolved, and also spots Terapagos peeking out of Liko's [[bag]]. Before Liko can explain about Terapagos, Dot collapses and complains that she can go no further, so Roy suggests a and snack break. They do so, with Liko taking the time to reveal to Ann how Terapagos used to be the pendant she had [[HZ001|previously shown to her]]. Ann is also excited by the concept of traveling around in an airship, though Liko admits that they've still got ways to go, as there is [[Laqua|a faraway place]] where Terapagos wishes to go to, which is why they're taking the [[Terastal Training]] course. Ann notes how Liko has grown much more confident and asks Roy and Dot to be her friends too. They accept, though the socially awkward Dot does so reluctantly. While Ann declares that she'll give it her all at the {{pal|Pokémon League}}, Liko receives a phone call from Friede, who asks how she and Roy are doing and if they too saw a pink haze when encountering Lucius's {{p|Lapras}} and {{rf|Galarian}} {{p|Moltres}}. Liko and Roy confirm this to be true, with Liko mentioning how she also saw the same thing with {{p|Arboliva}}. Having confirmed what he wanted to know, Friede wishes Liko and Roy good luck on their Terastal Training and ends the call. | Meanwhile, [[Liko]], [[Roy]], and [[Dot]] continue their journey back towards [[Naranja Academy]].

Friede has arrived in front of the office building of a company called [[Exceed]]. Entering the office of the company director, [[Crave]], he apologizes for having left the company in the past for his own selfish reasons, but Crave is quick to forgive him, having recognized that working in a stuffy lab was never Friede's strong suit. Friede reveals to his former boss that he currently travels around the world on an airship to research the mysteries of Pokémon with his friends and Captain Pikachu, while Crave has continued his job at Exceed to work for the betterment of Pokémon and {{pkmn|Trainer}}s alike. While Crave's {{p|Cinccino}} cleans up Cap's dirty hat, Friede requests to know more about the Eternal Blessing, which he had heard of during his short stay in the company's ranks, and believes to be connected to a certain Pokémon he's currently researching. Crave admits that not even he knows what the Eternal Blessing is, as it was passed down to him by a higher-up and is managed solely by an external research team, but he's still able to provide Friede with his old security pass.

(Japanese: 永遠のめぐみ The Eternal Blessing) is the 54th episode of Pokémon Horizons: The Series, and the 1,286th episode of the Pokémon animated series. It first aired in Japan on June 14, 2024.
Plot
Friede's study of Lucius's memoirs and Diana's diary is interrupted by Orla entering his hotel room to bring him and Captain Pikachu some food and inform them that the repair work for the Brave Olivine is halfway done. She has also thought of giving the airship a boost of some kind, though she's not sure yet if it'll work. In the meantime, Friede decides to head out somewhere to hopefully learn more about Terapagos, though he decides to make a phone call first.
Meanwhile, Liko, Roy, and Dot continue their journey back towards Naranja Academy. While Dot complains that she's thoroughly exhausted, Ann suddenly catches up with them, also on her way back to the academy after passing her test. She's surprised to notice that Hatenna and Wattrel have evolved, and also spots Terapagos peeking out of Liko's bag. Before Liko can explain about Terapagos, Dot collapses and complains that she can go no further, so Roy suggests a and snack break. They do so, with Liko taking the time to reveal to Ann how Terapagos used to be the pendant she had previously shown to her. Ann is also excited by the concept of traveling around in an airship, though Liko admits that they've still got ways to go, as there is a faraway place where Terapagos wishes to go to, which is why they're taking the Terastal Training course. Ann notes how Liko has grown much more confident and asks Roy and Dot to be her friends too. They accept, though the socially awkward Dot does so reluctantly. While Ann declares that she'll give it her all at the Pokémon League, Liko receives a phone call from Friede, who asks how she and Roy are doing and if they too saw a pink haze when encountering Lucius's Lapras and Galarian Moltres. Liko and Roy confirm this to be true, with Liko mentioning how she also saw the same thing with Arboliva. Having confirmed what he wanted to know, Friede wishes Liko and Roy good luck on their Terastal Training and ends the call.
Friede has arrived in front of the office building of a company called Exceed. Entering the office of the company director, Crave, he apologizes for having left the company in the past for his own selfish reasons, but Crave is quick to forgive him, having recognized that working in a stuffy lab was never Friede's strong suit. Friede reveals to his former boss that he currently travels around the world on an airship to research the mysteries of Pokémon with his friends and Captain Pikachu, while Crave has continued his job at Exceed to work for the betterment of Pokémon and Trainers alike. While Crave's Cinccino cleans up Cap's dirty hat, Friede requests to know more about the Eternal Blessing, which he had heard of during his short stay in the company's ranks, and believes to be connected to a certain Pokémon he's currently researching. Crave admits that not even he knows what the Eternal Blessing is, as it was passed down to him by a higher-up and is managed solely by an external research team, but he's still able to provide Friede with his old security pass.

Ann feels the same way, having had the courage to move on after arriving in Paldea thanks to having Dewott and Sandshrew by her side, feeling they could take her anywhere.

Happily holding Terapagos in her arms, Liko and her friends run ahead as they finally see Naranja Academy in the distance, declaring that they've finally made it back.
At the Explorers base, Amethio has been summoned to have a rare in-person meeting with Gibeon, who wishes to hear his resolve. As their goal is to obtain more Laquium, he is thus waiting for the true awakening of Terapagos, meaning that Amethio's duty, as the heir of his blood, is to seize it as soon as it happens.
