Blurb

Galar is a region where Pokémon battles have developed into a cultural sensation. Over the span of seven episodes, “Pokémon: Twilight Wings” will show in detail the dreams of Galar’s residents, the realities they face, the challenges they must overcome and the conflicts they must resolve. In addition to these new stories, fans can expect to see a variety of Pokémon originally discovered in the Galar region appearing in the capsule series.

Plot

Each episode focuses on a different character and is connected by a Cabbie and his Flying Taxi. John, a boy who has been in the hospital since childhood, is a fan of Champion Leon and dreams of watching him battle live. The story begins when John is visited by Chairman Rose.

The plot of the series takes place right before the events of Pokémon Sword and Shield, ending with Leon's exhibition match against Raihan seen during the game's introduction.[citation needed]
