Pokémon Fan 96 (ポケモンファン第96号) was published by Shogakukan on November 28th, 2025. There was a page dedicated to the anime.

RISING AGAIN!!
Further powerups are required! Battle training at Blueberry Academy has started!!

PAGOGO'S UNKNOWN POWERS THAT CAN PURIFY THE RAKULIUM AND RESCUE THE SIX HEROES!
Pagogo has the power to turn Pokémon that have been driven berserk by Rakulium back to normal! Briar-sensei's research has made it clear that what's needed to completely eradicate the Rakulium is Pagogo's powers as well as a lineup of powerful Pokémon capable of Terastallizing into all 18 types!
*Terapagos is a mysterious Pokémon with 3 different forms. When it's in its Terastal Forme, marks resembling the different Pokémon types emerge on the shell.

THE CURRENT GOAL IS TO RECAPTURE THE SIX HEROES AND POWER UP THE POKÉMON ON THE TEAM!
If the group gets the Six Heroes back, they may be able to have all 18 Teras types available if they get help from the Pokémon currently on their team as well?! That's another reason it's now important to power up the Pokémon they have!
*Thanks to Briar-sensei's research, a countermeasure against the Rakulium is starting to become apparent!
*Liko and the others' Partner Pokémon all have different Teras types. Will they be able to pave the way alongside the Six Heroes?!
