Synopsis[]

Liko and Cortondo Gym Leader Katy are teaming up for an aptitude match against Rika of the Paldea Elite Four! Liko is nervous, but Rika tries to cheer her up just in time for the match to begin. Then, Floragato and Katy's Lokix go up against Rika's Clodsire and Dugtrio, but Liko becomes frustrated because she can't seem to keep up with the other Trainers. Rika offers another pep talk, and this time Liko decides to put her all into the battle—and so does Floragato! Meanwhile, Dot meets a quiet student named Penny and discovers a new clue about the true power of Terapagos.^[1]
