Nanjyamo asks Dot to come visit her in Hakko City, where a high number of pranks have apparently been played on Pokémon lately to scare them. When Dot checks the footage of these pranks, it turns out they're actually being played by a Maggyo?! It's quite fast too... could this be due to it being affected by Rakulium? Dot heads downtown to investigate, where she encounters...?!

Liko and the others reunite with Murdock in Cercle Town. Murdock gets really worried when he learns that they have reformed the Rising Volt Tacklers and are investigating Rakulium.
