Synopsis
Clouds are blowing fast on the sky, when the Black Rayquaza appears and flies over them. Liko, Roy, Dot, Floragato, Crocalor, Quaxwell and Terapagos gaze at the sunny sky. Dot moves forward first, followed by Roy, and then Liko with Terapagos. They all run forward before stopping at the cliff, with Rayquaza flying in the distance. The series logo appears just as Rayquaza flies into it.
Dot's Room on the Brave Olivine is draped in purple, and Dot is at her desk as an overlay of her feeling frustrated appears. The swirling clouds in the sky are draped in red, and Roy is desperately reaching out for Rayquaza as an overlay of him feeling conflicted as he holds the Sky High Pokémon's ancient Poké Ball appears. The Battlefield at Naranja Academy is draped in blue, and Liko recalls one of her fainted Pokémon back into its Poké Ball as an overlay of her feeling sad about her loss appears.
Liko's overlay becomes a transition into the next scene in a colorless background. Liko takes a step, causing green leaves to appear from under her foot. She then reaches out for the full moon with the camera zooming out from her blue eyes, which appear to be the only thing colored. Liko notices a green and sparkly shadow of Sprigatito running past her, followed by Fuecoco and Quaxly. They all go in front of the Rising Volt Tacklers, becoming their second-stage Evolutions and turning everything colorful. Roy and Dot appear alongside Liko, and they all run towards the Rising Volt Tacklers together.
The screen turns completely white, shortly followed by a swinging transition of Liko's pendant. Carmine is in the Kitakami Hall, when Sinistcha causes her to drop her Syrupy Apple. Briar reads the Scarlet Book at the Crystal Pool, and the camera zooms in on her left earring, which turns into a transition. Perrin snaps a photo with Hisuian Growlithe in a bamboo forest. A darker part of the forest is shown which Kleavor's back turned.
Sidian, Coral, Spinel and Chalce appear in front of Gibeon's monolith (which has pink mist with white orbs below it). The scene freezes for a brief moment to show the current Explorers Admins and their Pokémon; Medicham under Chalce's orange background of the far left, Garganacl under Sidian's dark red background of the center left, Glalie under Coral's magenta background of the center right, and Umbreon under Spinel's cyan background of the far right. Amethio and Ceruledge appear in front of them heading for a whirlwind. Gibeon appears and uses the Laquium's power.
Shiny 50% Zygarde appears in what appears to be Laqua, facing Liko, Roy, Dot, and Friede, along with Floragato, Crocalor, Quaxwell and Captain Pikachu. A determined Liko tosses a Poké Ball into the air, along with four others which all release Pokémon as Terapagos turns into its Terastal Form. Cap and Crocalor ride on Kilowattrel and Charizard respectively. Cap uses Thunder Punch, followed by Kilowattrel using Spark, Hattrem and Tinkatuff fly past each other, both using Brutal Swing. Crocalor and Charizard use Flamethrower, followed by Quaxwell and Floragato using Liquidation and Magical Leaf respectively. the onslaught of moves ends with Zygarde meeting Rayquaza's Dragon Ascent head-on, creating a blast of swirling wind that tears the ground apart. After this, Terapagos appears to be in its Stellar Form, using Tera Starstorm to clear the sky. Rayquaza, along with Lucius's Arboliva, Galarian Moltres, and Lapras fly off into the clear sky, each becoming a ray of dark-gray, green, red, and blue light that collide to create a bright yellow burst of energy.
All the Rising Volt Tacklers are outside the observation deck of the Brave Olivine overlooking the clear, sunny sky with optimism. The focus of this scene turns to Liko, Roy and Dot, and then Captain Pikachu. Friede walks into a white screen. Amethio and Ceruledge have their backs turned on Spinel and Umbreon. Lucius is seen traveling with who looks to be a younger Gibeon and Rystal, a girl dressed in green carrying Terapagos. The Brave Olivine flies over a bed of clouds next to a wide cliff.
The opening ends with the Rising Volt Tacklers performing their handshake, the focus quickly turning to just Liko. Her Rotom Phone is next to Lucius's belt and his memoirs, with a picture on it depicting Penny, Quaxwell, Dot, Crocalor, Roy, Liko, Terapagos, Ann, Floragato, Dewott, Nemona, and Pawmot.
