(Japanese: みえないヤツだ！何者なんじゃ？ Someone We Can't See! Whosawhatsit?) is the 15th episode of Pokémon Horizons: The Series, and the 1,247th episode of the Pokémon anime. It first aired in Japan on July 28, 2023.
Plot
Picking up from where Spinel took the pendant from Liko thanks to his Beheeyem putting her in a trance, the last thing Liko remembers is becoming Sprigatito's trainer and enrolling at the Indigo Academy. As Liko walks with her partner through the streets of Levincia, Liko wonders why she came back to Paldea, noticing that her Rotom Phone is staticky for some reason. Liko stares at the Grass Cat Pokemon, feeling like she's lost something important. However, Sprigatito's cuteness distracts her from the thought as she tries to pet it, and Sprigatito scratches her. In doing so, a faint memory of these exact events, only at the Indigo Academy, pops up in Liko's head, making her feel like this has happened before.
Back at the Brave Asagi, the Rising Volt Tacklers grow worried about Liko seeing how she hasn't come back yet, and the fact that they can't get in touch with her on her phone. Dot points out tons of reports from Artazon, giving Friede and the others their first lead as he takes Roy with him to Artazon. As Friede and Roy depart for Artazon, Ludlow, praying for their safe return, states that not everything they seek is for the eye to see.
Back in Levincia, Liko looks at a Sprigatito billboard before noticing one of the ancient adventurer's Poke Balls in her bag. She lets Sprigatito play with it before it runs off, prompting her to run after her partner. Meanwhile, Spinel observes Liko's pendant, wondering what it could be before turning his attention to Artazon, where his Beheeyem is spying on the Rising Volt Tacklers. As they all grow increasingly worried for Liko, Wattrel sees a Corvisquire flying above, following it with Roy trailing behind.
Sunset comes and Liko is still running after Sprigatito, knowing its always like this with him. Liko manages go around and to cut off Sprigatito's path to catch it, acknowledging that its free spirit is what makes it special. Liko then notices the sunset, and another faint memory plays in her head, this time of a sunset just like that one on the deck of the Brave Asagi. The Rising Volt Tacklers are still no closer to finding Liko, leaving dot to believe that the info regarding the sighting at Artazon were fake. Friede knows it couldn't have been Amethio and his goons, but a group of Magneton controlled by another trainer, who were also behind the ship malfunctions and cutting off the signal in Arboliva's Forest. Friede believes they have fallen into someone's trap. Meanwhile, Roy finally catches up to Wattrel in Levincia, but realizes that he's wandered off.
Dot is starting to become frustrated, and wanting to make a plan that will go viral, she contacts her friend, Gym Leader of Levincia and popular streamer, Iono. Dot tells Iono that her friend is missing and she needs her help, so Iono plans to stage a collaboration between her and Dot as Nidothing. Liko notices people gathered around the center of town, where Iono makes her appearance and addresses her adoring public. Iono introduces their special guest, Nidothing, surprising Liko. Iono announces the challenge; find the girl on the streets, and says that one of Nidothing's friends and subscribers will be doing the hiding. Nidothing says that the person they are looking for is SprigatitoSuperfan, shocking Liko to know that it's her and questioning why Nidothing would choose her to find. Everyone around Liko know its her immediately. To Dot's shock, a nervous Liko runs away from the crowd, so Iono spices things up turns it into a chase to see who can catch Liko first. Dot contacts the Rising Volt Tacklers to tell them that Liko in Levincia, revealing that it really was fake info in Artazon laid out by the enemy. Friede is about to head there, and Dot asks him to take her there too.
Liko is running from the crowd, and wanting to do her best for Nidothing, Liko has Sprigatito use Leafage to provide cover for their escape. As Liko cuts around a corner, a faint memory of Onia confronting her with her Skarmory pops up in her head when she runs into a trainer and her Flaffy, having Sprigatito use Quick Attack to throw them off. As they continue their getaway, Liko can't help but feel like working together with Sprigatito like this feels oddly familiar. Friede arrives at the ship, where Dot is out of her room and waiting for him, and deciding to bring her Quaxly along too in case there's a battle. Meanwhile, Roy is looking for Liko in Levincia, but is not used to navigating the big city. Friede and Dot arrive at his position, and Dot, using her Rotom Phone, leads them to Liko's location.
Liko and Sprigatito go up one of the skyscrapers. The full moon suddenly catches Liko's attention. Reaching out for the moon, just like she has done before when she and Sprigatito started out, Liko finally remembers everything. Liko then notices the crowd gathered at the building she is on, running again. However, Liko comes to a gap between the buildings that she'll have to jump to get away. Sprigatito encourages Liko, who likewise remembers how they took the leap of faith once before. Roy and Dot arrive at the top of the other building just in time to see Liko. Liko remembers her friends, the ones she holds dear and met because she took the effort to step out. Gathering all her courage once more, Liko takes the leap of faith with Sprigatito again, almost losing her balance when she lands, but this time not falling down, which raises her confidence.
Roy and Dot are relieved for Liko, who leaves them confused when she tells the two that she remembers everything. Liko is shocked to meet Dot in person for the first time. Before Dot can explain, Iono drops in to praise a bashful Liko for the good time she gave the people of Levincia and for the caring friends she has. Dot, using Nidothing's voice, wraps it up by also praising Liko, making her happy that she and Nidothing worked together. Spinel puts Liko's pendant in a case as he observes Iono signing off, thinking that Liko is stronger than he expected. Liko thanks Dot for helping out with finding her. She believes that she has so many great friends by her side now. However, as Liko is ready to set sail, she notices that her pendant is gone. Liko tells Friede that the last thing she remembers was running into someone in the alley. Friede looks up Beheeyem on his phone and Liko immediately recognizes it as the Pokemon the man had with him. Friede knows that Beheeyem as the one he and Charizard fought earlier, revealing that Beheeyem not only allowed the man to take Liko's pendant from right under her nose, but was also the one responsible for her brief memory wipe when it put her in that trance. With that, Friede and the rest decide to counterattack the enemy and get Liko's pendant back.
