During the original airing on TV Tokyo, a new trailer was shown for the final 3 episodes of the Rayquaza Rising arc. The trailer was then posted on the official Japanese Pokémon YouTube channel shortly thereafter.

A new trailer for the Pocket Monsters TV show (airs on the TV Tokyo Network every Friday at 6:55pm, officially abbreviated "Anipoke") has been released, showing the Rayquaza Rising arc finally reaching its climax as Liko and the others take on the formidable opponent that is the White Zygarde.

This new trailer gives a sneak peek at some intense battle scenes from the Rayquaza Rising arc as it finally approaches its climax, with Liko, Roy and Dot confronting Explorers leader Gibeon's White Zygarde.

It also appears we can see Amethio, who has obstructed Liko and the others' way forward many times, fighting alongside them...?! Will the winners of the battle for Rakua be the Rising Volt Tacklers, or will it be the Explorers...?

At the very end of the trailer, we also see a Mega Evolved alternately colored yellow Lucario. In addition, we clearly see a Mega Ring on the arm of the person we can assume to be its Trainer. New information on the next episodes of the constantly evolving Pokémon anime will be announced on March 14th, 2025!

During the original airing on TV Tokyo, a new trailer was shown for the new chapter Mega Voltage. The trailer was then posted on the official Japanese Pokémon YouTube channel shortly thereafter.

It has been announced that the Pocket Monsters TV show (airs on the TV Tokyo Network every Friday at 6:55pm, officially abbreviated "Anipoke") will start a new chapter titled Mega Voltage with the episode airing April 11th, 2025. In addition to a more mature Liko, Roy and Dot, the poster that's been released depicts a young boy named Ult who's accompanied by a Mega Yamirami.

In addition to Liko, Roy and Dot's partner Pokémon Achigator, Welkamo and Masquernya, the latter which evolved from Nyarote after a fierce battle against the White Zygarde in the episode that aired today the 14th, we can also clearly see an alternately colored Mega Lucario.

In addition, Captain Pikachu appears to be wearing... Friede's goggles?! Not only that, but "Mega Rings" are shining brightly on Roy and Ult's arms, giving us huge expectations for the roles they're going to play from here on.

April 11th, 2025 will have a 1 hour special depicting Liko and Roy setting off on this new adventure.

In today's episode, Pagogo (Terapagos) transformed into its Stellar Forme. It now attempts to purify the Rakulium with the Six Heroes' help, but... How will this 100 year long battle over the Rakulium go?! The climax of the Rayquaza Rising arc will air next week, just before we plunge into the new chapter.
