Bad! We've Run Into Our Nemesis!

"Just as I thought! The legendary hero wasn't one person—at least, not just one person!"

Sonia's eyes shimmered as she looked at the fallen rocks on the mountain wall, revealing two blurry figures behind them.

After returning to the Galar Region for summer vacation, Professor Magnolia, her grandmother, assigned her a new piece of "homework" to evaluate the results of her studies abroad.

Find out the history of the hero who had once fought against the "Darkest Day" and driven it away.

Because Pokémon Gigantamax phenomena had begun appearing continuously throughout the Galar Region, similar to what had happened when the "Darkest Day" descended, Professor Magnolia suspected there might be some connection.

Perhaps it was an omen, or perhaps it was directly connected to the "Darkest Day" itself.

That was why she had Sonia investigate this history.

But as Sonia's investigation and research deepened, she discovered a secret no one knew.

The hero who had driven away the "Darkest Day" was not just one person!

And the sculpture before her confirmed her guess.

However, due to the passage of time and the mountain's burial and sealing, the two figures had become especially indistinct.

All she could tell was that they were not humanoid!

"Hmm?"

Sonia noticed a shattered stone tablet amid the collapsed rocks, with some faint writing engraved upon it.

"This is..."

After confirming that no more rocks would collapse, Sonia hurried forward.

"Good thing I learned a little ancient writing from Teacher Jing He, Miss Cynthia, and Steven Stone."

Sonia's greatest gain from studying at Canalave Pokémon Academy in the Hoenn Region had been ancient writing!

Teacher Jing He had close ties with the ancient Regi Titans and could generally decipher the text on some of their stone tablets. Miss Cynthia was an expert in ancient mythology and
