Synopsis

Liko and Sprigatito are enjoying the breeze outside the Brave Olivine's observation room together. The camera quickly pans up to the sky and the series logo appears.

Friede enters the Captain's deck to check on Captain Pikachu and Charizard. A hardworking Orla wipes her forehead before exchanging a look with Elekid and Slugma. In the kitchen, Murdock's Alcremie fills a bowl with cream as Murdock and Rockruff are ready to make something out of it. Mollie is in the nursery with Chansey, Pawmi, Shuckle, Snorunt, and Alolan Muk, turning around in her chair as Chansey carries a tray to the opposite end of the room. Roy and Fuecoco skip and swing around together through a forest as various Pokemon they've encountered pass by in the opposite direction. Nidothing and Quaxly dance and get up into the fourth wall. Ludlow is fishing in the sunset as a Pelipper and three Wingull fly by him.

At night, Liko has her coat off and is on her Rotom Tablet. She pets Sprigatito before looking at her window at the moon. A transition of her singing along with uncertainty panning to the left turns the screen blue. The next scene starts with Liko's legs walking to the rhythm of Sprigatito's wagging tail, and then Roy's hat swaying the rhythm of Fuecoco's head swaying. Liko holds her pendant before letting go, causing it to glow brightly as the camera zooms out. Liko and Roy lay down on the battlefield, exhausted as their partners come to their sides and they exchange a laugh. The camera zooms out, with Friede and his Pokemon watching the two, and a shooting star crosses over the ocean.

Liko commands Sprigatito to use Leafage, which Roy has Fuecoco counter with Ember. Orla, on her Metagross, and Murdock watch their battle. Mollie, Quaxly and Ludlow are in the next scene. Noctowl, and then Friede with Charizard, and then Captain Pikachu are in the next. Roy holds one of the ancient adventurer's Poké Balls, gazing up at the clear sky surrounded by clouds where the Black Rayquaza flies overhead. Amethio battles Friede's Charizard with his Ceruledge, with fire in Friede's eyes. In the meeting room, Murdock places mugs around as the other Rising Volt Tacklers come in and are impressed. Liko and Sprigatito face away from the fourth wall, standing before clouds moving in the opposite direction she is facing. Liko becomes surprised when the other Rising Volt Tacklers walk by her and towards the Brave Olivine. They all turn around to Liko, with Roy waving for her to come along. Sprigatito jumps on Liko's shoulder and nuzzles her cheek, and she runs to join the Rising Volt Tacklers.

The final shot shows all the Rising Volt Tacklers walking together in front of the Brave Olivine. Liko, Roy and their partners are in the center with Charizard and Captain Pikachu above them. Friede, Orla, Dot, Ludlow and Quaxly are on the right with Metagross flying above them. Murdock, Mollie, Chansey and Rockruff are on the left.

English Oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh The moment that I've been waiting for It's finally knocking in my door This is for me, this is my time I'm running into the great unknown Don't know where it leads, but I'm gonna follow The answer could be just out of sight I can feel the fire burning in me Like the sunset on the red glowing sea Will I sink or get caught in the tide Will I swim, if I keep trying I might Discover whole new different worlds, ready set Here we go Together to the farthest places (Oh oh) There's a magical adventure ahead if we go Wherever our destiny takes us You don't have to be afraid anymore Spread your wings, believe you'll rise up and soar We go we go (Oh oh oh oh) We go we go (Oh oh oh oh)
