Father? Throne?
Hearing Mew's words, several question marks instantly appeared above Luo Mu's head.
He was, after all, a transmigrator who had played Scarlet/Violet and cleared the second playthrough.
Although he had not yet had the chance to play the later DLC, he had already experienced things that seemed to be DLC content, whether it was Kitakami and Ogerpon or Blueberry Academy and Terapagos.
And before those—or rather, before the main Scarlet/Violet games—Luo Mu had naturally cleared Pokémon Legends: Arceus as well and knew its content well.
Considering the region they were in, the "king" Mew spoke of was most likely mentioned in the second chapter of the ancient poems scattered across the Hisui Region.
It referred to the descendants of the ten Pokémon who had been struck by lightning from the heavens, gained the power of Great Lord Sinnoh, became aides to humans who were still far weaker than "fierce beasts" at the time, and challenged Great Lord Sinnoh alongside a hero who was likely Alder's ancestor.
Luo Mu remembered that those ten Pokémon should have been—Sneasler, Ursaluna, Basculegion, Hisuian Electrode, Braviary, Kleavor, Lilligant, Arcanine, Sneasler, and Avalugg.
Sneasler, Ursaluna, Basculegion, Sneasler, and Braviary corresponded to the five Hisui ride Pokémon the protagonist could summon with the Sacred Flute in the game.

Did Mew mean she wanted his Arcanine to inherit the throne of the "Island King"?
But in the modern Sinnoh Region, not to mention the "Island King," even Hisuian Growlithe and the Arcanine line were practically extinct.
