History
Pre-series
As revealed in Flying Pikachu, Rising Higher and Higher!, a Pokémon Professor named Friede was fishing in the Paldea region with his Charizard and his former mentor Ludlow. Friede met up with a teacher of his, Lucca, who wanted him to meet someone. Upon meeting a wild Pikachu trying to fly, Friede decided to do research on him and tried to befriend the Mouse Pokémon. Although he failed to befriend Pikachu, Friede didn't give up as he offered the Mouse Pokémon some food. Eventually, Friede decided to fly up to sky to see why Pikachu wanted to fly, realizing that he wanted to see the horizons. Seeing Pikachu falling, Friede and Charizard saved him, winning his friendship. Friede asked Pikachu to be his partner, which he accepted. Later, Friede asked Ludlow if he can have his boat and was okay with it. The two arrived in Slateport City in Hoenn where Friede met up with his childhood friend Orla and asked her to turn Ludlow's boat into an airship. Through her help, the boat turned into the Brave Olivine and the four of them formed the Rising Volt Tacklers. Also, Friede decided to nickname his partner Captain Pikachu.
Later, the three of them met Mollie, Murdock, and his niece Dot (who is a well known streamer known as Nidothing) and they all joined the Rising Volt Tacklers. During their adventures, the Rising Volt Tacklers had various Pokémon from all the different regions settle in with them when they decided to make the Brave Olivine their home. One day, Friede was contacted by Lucca, who was reached out by her mother, Diana, as she asked him to bring her daughter Liko, who was attending the Indigo Academy in the Kanto region, to Paldea and protect her during the journey there.
Pokémon Horizons: The Series
The Rising Volt Tacklers debuted in The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One). They first appeared looking for Liko at the Indigo Academy, as they failed to find her because all the students were wearing the same uniforms. Despite this, they decided to try again in finding Liko during the school holidays with Friede going back to the Indigo Academy by himself in order to find her. When Liko clashed with the members of the Explorers, Friede appeared to help her. After nearly getting hit by Ceruledge's Psycho Cut, Liko and her Sprigatito were protected by the power of her mysterious pendant.
In the following episode, Friede took Liko to the Rising Volt Tacklers's airship, where she had her first interaction with the rest of the group. Before Liko could ask more about them, the ship was intercepted by members of the Explorers and another battle between Friede and Amethio ensued. After Liko almost gave herself to the Explorers, her Sprigatito unleashed a Leafage strong enough to break the forcefield around Wing Deck, but got blown overboard in the process, allowing Amethio to capture it before fleeing with his group.
In For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!, Friede revealed that Liko's mother hired the Rising Volt Tacklers to protect her. The group went to the city where the Explorers were last seen, and Murdock's Rockruff managed to smell Sprigatito's scent in Onia. Friede, Liko, and Rockruff chased her back to their temporary base, where Friede engaged Amethio again in a battle to allow for Liko and Rockruff to find where Sprigatito was held captive. After being reunited with her Pokémon, Liko decided to trust in the Rising Volt Tacklers and became part of the group, whose next destination was Paldea.
Throughout their journey to get Liko to Paldea, the Rising Volt Tacklers met a boy named Roy on an island in Kanto as he helped them repair their ship. Roy eventually decided to join the Rising Volt Tacklers on their adventures, after forming a bond with a Fuecoco that lived with them as it became his first Pokémon and an encounter with a Black Rayquaza that came out of his Ancient Poké Ball. The Rising Volt Tacklers helped Liko and Roy become better at Pokémon battles. In addition, Liko and Roy learned of the existence of Dot (who was hiding in her room from the rest of the crew and Liko and Roy up until that point) as they attempted to make friends with her.
In Welcome to Paldea!, the Rising Volt Tacklers arrived in Paldea. After Friede failed to reach Liko's mother, they decided to head over to her house as Alex, her father, was home. However, Liko overheard Alex talking to Friede, as he expressed how worried he was about her being on her own and expressed a desire for her to attend school in Paldea. Liko decided to head back to the ship for the night, but was not able to fall sleep. Through Orla and Mollie's advice and a drawing Dot made for her, Liko made up her mind as she left the ship to go back home to tell Alex her decision. Upon arriving home, Liko told her father that she wanted to continue traveling with the Rising Volt Tacklers and attend online classes at the Indigo Academy, which he understood and accepted her decision.
Following a led from Alex and Brassius about the Black Rayquaza, the Rising Volt Tacklers investigated Arboliva Forest where they met a giant Arboliva that had another Ancient Poké Ball and saw the damage that a forest fire caused to it. The Rising Volt Tacklers worked together to restore the forest and eventually witnessed Liko's pendant reveal an unknown Pokémon, which showed her and Roy a vision. After Arboliva decided to join them, Liko and Roy discovered that it and the Rayquaza belonged to Lucius, the Ancient Adventurer. Friede also found out about this through Lucca as she told him that she knew the legend thanks to her mother. Liko decided to meet with her grandmother in Galar to learn more about her pendant.
However, before they could set off for Galar, they were ambushed by Spinel of the Explorers who was able to steal Liko's pedant by using his Beheeyem to put her in a trance, which led her to lose part of her memory. While most of the crew was searching for Liko, Dot had some help in steamer and Levincia's Gym Leader Iono in finding her. Dot decided to leave the airship in order to find Liko, causing Roy to finally meet her in person. Meanwhile, Liko was able to recover the memories she lost while under Beheeyem's trance and met up with Roy and Dot, meeting the latter for the first time. After reuniting with Friede, Liko realized that her pendant was stolen, so the Rising Volt Tacklers made a plan to get it back from Spinel. Dot officially became a Pokémon Trainer with the Quaxly that have been living with the Rising Volt Tacklers as her first Pokémon. After they managed to get Liko's pendant back from Spinel, the Rising Volt Tacklers set off for the Galar region.
During their journey to Galar, the younger members became curious as to how Captain Pikachu was able to fly during a battle against Roy's Fuecoco and Wattrel. After falling to get an answer from Friede, Liko, Roy, and Dot asked the rest of the members, but no luck. However, their question did get the rest of the members curious as well, who turned to Friede for answers. Although he was reluctant to answer their question, Friede decided to tell them as to how he met Captain Pikachu and the formation of the Rising Volt Tacklers. In The Bittersweet Truth, the Rising Volt Tacklers arrived in Galar. They decided that their first stop was at Motostoke before heading to Hammerlocke by train.
However, after hearing from Kabu that he saw the Black Rayquaza flying to the west of Motostoke, they decided to take a detour to the Galar Mine. Here, Liko, Roy, and Friede encountered the Explorers again and they battle them. However, a Galarian Moltres that had an Ancient Poké Ball arrived and attack them, which led Captain Pikachu in getting injured. Fortunately, Liko and Roy managed to bring in Captain Pikachu out of the mine while Friede continued his battle against Amethio. After recovering at the Motostoke's Pokémon Center, Liko and Roy reunited with Friede and the three of them decided to confront Moltres again in order to calm it down. Through their teamwork, they were able to do it. After Terapagos reappeared, they saw a vision and Moltres decided to join them, returning to its Ancient Poké Ball. However, Terapagos didn't return to its pedant form, as Liko's Hatenna sensed its presence and revealed it to her Trainer. Friede hid Terapagos while he, Liko, and Roy decided to take it to the Brave Olivine.
After showing the rest of their teammates Terapagos, Liko, Roy, and Friede headed for Hammerlocke to find the Old Castle that Diana was at. Through her Squawkabilly, they were able to meet with Diana, who explained her past and the history of Terapagos. However, they were ambushed by the Explorers, who followed them to their location in order to take Terapagos. Fortunately, they were able to escape with Diana joining them as she showed Liko information about Lucius and his remaining Pokémon. After Terapagos did some exploring of its surroundings, Diana gave Liko a belt that was owned by Lucius to hold the Ancient Poké Balls. Liko then told her friends that she wanted to find Lucius's remaining Pokémon and look for Laqua, which they agreed. However, due to not having a lot of information of the three remaining Pokémon, they decided to continue pursuing Black Rayquaza. After Dot got misled in finding information about the Black Rayquaza's whereabouts, Roy decided to ask someone if they knew anything about the Ancient Poké Balls, which Diana tells him that she knows someone who could help. However, Diana's friend Tepen turned out to have turned into stealing. Fortunately, Liko, Diana, and their friends helped Tepen realize the error of his ways. Although Tepen wasn't able to help them get information about the Ancient Poké Balls, Liko and her friends were able to get intel of a contact of his. Through Tepen's information, Liko and her friends meet Karna as she designs Poké Balls, but could't help them with information about the Ancient Poké Balls either.
Due to not getting the information they needed about the Ancient Poké Balls, the Rising Volt Tacklers decided to continue their search for the remaining six heroes. Also, the Rising Volt Tacklers took in two new wild Pokémon that decided to live on the Brave Olivine. Eventually, the Rising Volt Tacklers got information about a Lapras and they realized that it had to be one of Lucius's Pokémon, so they decided to investigate. After finding it, they failed to see it because of the Mist covering it and the younger members witnessed two Pokémon appearing on the ship. However, through Friede's plan, the Rising Volt Tacklers were able to see Lapras with scars and they found out that it used the mist to cover any ship that went nearby to give to its fellow Pokémon the chance to steal the food cargo on them. After preventing the group from stealing anything, the Rising Volt Tacklers followed Lapras and its group. However, they were stopped when Lapras used Ice Beam on the ship. Liko, Roy, and Friede decided to confront Lapras on their own. Terapagos attempted to reason with Lapras, even bringing out Arboliva and Moltres for help. Liko, Roy, and Friede were then shown another visions of Lucius. After spending time with Lapras and its friends, the Rising Volt Tacklers got ready to leave. However, Lapras decided to join them as its friends encouraged to go with them and it returned into its Ancient Poké Ball.
Before setting off, the Rising Volt Tacklers witnessed the Black Rayquaza arriving to their location. However, after Amethio battled and got defeated by the Black Rayquaza, the Rising Volt Tacklers witnessed Terapagos transforming and battling the Legendary Pokémon. Unfortunately, Terapagos collapsed and the Black Rayquaza left. Later, Diana told Friede that she was planning to travel alone again, which he understood and accepted her decision. The next day, Liko and Roy did a training battle with Diana, which led them to victory when Sprigatito land a hit on Diana's Arcanine. After the battle, Liko and Roy thanked the Diana for the experience, as it will help them be better Trainers. Upon hearing Diana's departure, Liko and Roy decided to do a surprise farewell party. Through the rest of the members help, Liko and Roy were able to surprise Diana, which she appreciated. Before leaving, Diana gave Liko her adventure log. After dropping Diana off, the Rising Volt Tacklers agree to continue their search for the reaming six heroes. However, before doing so, the Rising Volt Tacklers decided to return to Paldea for information on Terapagos.
During their return journey to Paldea, the Rising Volt Tacklers began to run out of funds and need it to pay for supplies, as the adults decided to take some jobs in order to raise money. After Friede got a job request from a friend of his, he took the assignment with Liko and Roy accompany him. They were able to fulfill the job and stop a group of Pokémon hunters. Also, Friede got another job assignment from another friend of his who is the leader of a group of archeologists, as they were having trouble with a group of Sandile and its evolved forms. Fortunately, Roy found out the problem but, to their disappointment, for this reason the Rising Volt Tacklers were no longer needed to do the job. Also, the Rising Volt Tacklers took in a new wild Pokémon when it decided to come live on the Brave Olivine. In addition, Dot was reunited with her mother, as she came to bring her home becasue her time with the team was a trail, but let her stay as a permanent member of the team, after seeing her friendship with her Pokémon partners, Quaxly and Tinkatink, Liko, and Roy, and having a battle agasint each other.
In HZ042, the Rising Volt Tacklers arrived back in Paldea. Sometime after returning to Paldea, the team learned of that Explorers' plan to capture the Black Rayquaza and decided to investigate a mysterious tower they had built near Levincia. However, when Friede entered the tower, it turned out to actually be a trap set up by Spinel, locking Friede up inside while the rest of the Explorers admins started the capture operation at a lighthouse outside of Levincia. Liko, Roy, and Ludlow hurried to the site to stop them, with the rest of the team moving the Brave Olivine to the site as well to allow Dot to jump down to the lighthouse and use a shutdown program on the device the Explorers had used to summon Rayquaza. While Friede successfully escaped from Spinel's trap and Roy managed to stop Chalce from catching Rayquaza, things quickly took a turn for the worse when Rayquaza's Draco Meteor started devastating the scenery and Coral made a reckless attack on Rayquaza out of rage by having her Glalie use Self-Destruct, sending Rayquaza crashing straight into the Brave Olivine and severely damaging it. Fortunately, Murdock was able to safely land the Brave Olivine. After the Explorers retreated, Liko, Roy, Dot and Friede battled Rayquaza. Depsite having help from Amethio, the four of them couldn't defeat Rayquaza, and the Legendary Pokémon left once again. In the aftermath of the battle, Liko, Roy, and Dot decided to learn more about the Terastal phenomenon and be able to use it in battle. As such, they went to study at Naranja Academy, while the rest of the Rising Volt Tacklers focused on repairing the Brave Olivine.
