She is seen holding a [[Poké Ball (item)|Poké Ball]] before a shot of [[Roy]] greeting the viewers occurs. Roy is seen walking with {{TP|Roy|Fuecoco}}, along with [[Dot]] and {{TP|Dot|Quaxly}} before a shot of Dot greeting the viewers occurs.
Roy runs ahead of Liko and Dot as an {{p|Arrokuda}} jumps out of the river next to them. The three kids and all their Pokémon are enjoying sandwiches by a campfire at night. The next scene shows them walking through a snowstorm. As they lay down happily on the grass, a next shot shows various Paldean [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]] behind the trees before a {{p|Kingambit}} appears. A singalong shot occurs with [[Ann]] and [[Nemona]] on the bench closest to the camera, Liko in the middle behind them, Dot and [[Penny]] on the left, and Roy on the right. On the beat, {{p|Dewott}} and {{p|Pawmot}} jump in front of the camera, followed by {{p|Floragato}}, {{p|Fuecoco}} and {{p|Quaxly}}. After that plays a scene with [[Captain Pikachu]], [[Friede]] and Charizard.
Liko, Roy and Dot look out at the sunset together, ready for what lies ahead. The next shot shows [[Sidian]] and {{p|Garganacl}}, along with [[Coral]] and {{p|Glalie}}. Three Tera symbols glowing green, red and blue appear before turning into Tera crystals. Liko charges her [[Tera Orb]], along with Roy and Dot. Floragato Terastallizes into a Tera {{t|Grass}} [[type]], along with Fuecoco and Quaxly, who Terastallize into a Tera {{t|Fire}} type and a Tera {{t|Water}} type respectively. The next shot shows [[Jacq]], [[Clavell]], [[Geeta]], [[Dendra]] and [[Chalce]]. As Liko, Roy and Dot run across the grass, transitions of [[Gym Leader]]s and [[Elite Four]] members occur in this order: [[Katy]] and {{p|Teddiursa}}, [[Brassius]] and {{p|Sudowoodo}}, [[Iono]] and {{p|Bellibolt}}, [[Kofu]] and {{p|Wugtrio}}, [[Tulip]] and {{p|Espathra}}, [[Ryme]] and {{p|Houndstone}}, [[Grusha]] and {{p|Cetitan}}, [[Larry]] and {{p|Staraptor}}/{{p|Flamigo}}, [[Hassel]] and {{p|Baxcalibur}}, [[Poppy]] and {{p|Tinkaton}}, and [[Rika]] and {{p|Clodsire}}.
Liko is about to take a bite of her sandwich before Floragato snatches it. After the camera focuses on Liko's eye, which becomes crystalized, the kids overlook a hill. Multiple Poké Balls are thrown in the air and become the title logo.

Opening animation

Synopsis

Liko and Floragato walk out the gates together before a shot of her greeting the viewers occurs. She is seen holding a Poké Ball before a shot of Roy greeting the viewers occurs. Roy is seen walking with Fuecoco, along with Dot and Quaxly before a shot of Dot greeting the viewers occurs.

Roy runs ahead of Liko and Dot as an Arrokuda jumps out of the river next to them. The three kids and all their Pokémon are enjoying sandwiches by a campfire at night. The next scene shows them walking through a snowstorm. As they lay down happily on the grass, a next shot shows various Paldean Pokémon behind the trees before a Kingambit appears. A singalong shot occurs with Ann and Nemona on the bench closest to the camera, Liko in the middle behind them, Dot and Penny on the left, and Roy on the right. On the beat, Dewott and Pawmot jump in front of the camera, followed by Floragato, Fuecoco and Quaxly. After that plays a scene with Captain Pikachu, Friede and Charizard.

Liko, Roy and Dot look out at the sunset together, ready for what lies ahead. The next shot shows Sidian and Garganacl, along with Coral and Glalie. Three Tera symbols glowing green, red and blue appear before turning into Tera crystals. Liko charges her Tera Orb, along with Roy and Dot. Floragato Terastallizes into a Tera Grass type, along with Fuecoco and Quaxly, who Terastallize into a Tera Fire type and a Tera Water type respectively. The next shot shows Jacq, Clavell, Geeta, Dendra and Chalce. As Liko, Roy and Dot run across the grass, transitions of Gym Leaders and Elite Four members occur in this order: Katy and Teddiursa, Brassius and Sudowoodo, Iono and Bellibolt, Kofu and Wugtrio, Tulip and Espathra, Ryme and Houndstone, Grusha and Cetitan, Larry and Staraptor/Flamigo, Hassel and Baxcalibur, Poppy and Tinkaton, and Rika and Clodsire.

Liko is about to take a bite of her sandwich before Floragato snatches it. After the camera focuses on Liko's eye, which becomes crystalized, the kids overlook a hill. Multiple Poké Balls are thrown in the air and become the title logo.
