Sometime before the events of Pokémon Horizons: The Series, Lucca met Friede and became his teacher.

As revealed in HZ018, some years later, she moved to Paldea with Alex and had a daughter named Liko. Lucca introduced Friede to Captain Pikachu, which led them to forming the Rising Volt Tacklers. One day, Lucca was contacted by her mother as she asked her to hire anyone she trusted to protect both Liko and the pedant. Accepting her mother's request, Lucca called Friede and asked him to bring Liko, who was attending Indigo Academy, to Paldea and protect her during the journey there.
