The title for this episode At the End of the Adventure (冒険の先に) was first revealed in Pokémon Fan 92 on February 28th, 2025.

The Decisive Battle for the Rising Volt Tacklers
CAN LUCIUS' WISH BE GRANTED?!
100 years ago, Lucius stayed behind in Rakua in order to stop the world-threatening Rakulium from running wild. Having inherited his dream, Liko and the other now face this very danger themselves!

POINT OF ATTENTION 1: THE SIX HEROES ASSEMBLE! LUCIUS AWAKENS?!
The Six Heroes have thus far accompanied Liko and the others on their adventure. However, they're Lucius' partners, so if Lucius awakens from his long sleep in Rakua, is he going to fight alongside them once more...?
*100 years ago, Terapagos created a gigantic barrier in order to stop the Rakulium from running wild. Lucius disappeared behind that barrier, but...

POINT OF ATTENTION 2: WILL TERAPAGOS TRANSFORM INTO ITS THIRD FORME, THE STELLAR FORME?!
Terapagos is still shrouded in many mysteries. Now that it's become Liko's partner, it might display powers nobody could ever have predicted!
*100 years ago, it turned into its Stellar Forme and exhausted all its powers in order to contain the surge of the Rakulium.

POINT OF ATTENTION 3: THE DECISIVE FACTOR IN THE BATTLE WILL BE TERASTALLIZATION!
The group can expect fierce battles, but they're only able to Terastallize once each! When is the right time to use this trump card to influence the outcome...? Don't miss this battle of destiny!
*Now is the time to throw everything you've learned on your adventures thus far at your opponent!
*We have great expectations for Lizardon's Terastallization and Captain Pikachu's contributions as well!

SCHEDULE OF UPCOMING EPISODES:
