There's a lot to unpack here. I won't say too much as the subtitles have yet to release for this episode, but I will be saying some key moments in which it has shown to us.

First and foremost, the history of the Explorers and Rakua. How Lucius meets both Rystal and Gibeon, their quest to go to Rakua, in which it leads to the fallout of the trio. It's also shown how certain Pokémon end up the way they ended up, with Zygarde going from his 50% forme, to 10% forme, and with Terapagos turning into his Stellar Form in attempting to stop the Rakurium from expanding, which would then go into his long slumber as a pendant.

Secondly, the flashbacks that have been shown since episode 12. Back then, all we knew from the flashbacks was that there was a connection between Terapagos and the Six Heroes. But now, we know that the flashbacks were actually from Rystal's POV. Which is kinda cool thinking about it. We we're exposed of the flashbacks of past Explorers as early as... well, Episode 12. Now the pieces of the puzzle are connecting, and when they start to intertwine with one another, it all makes sense.

Thirdly, and arguably the biggest one so far, our 4th catch of the series, with Terapagos oficially joining in Liko's roster. Something that has been in the makings since Terapagos Shine. How this catch will change the course of the story is beyond me.

This is also supposedly the halfway point of the series, and so far, we have 4 of the Six Heroes. We just need Entei and Rayquaza, and then the journey to Rakua awaits.

Did not expect to be sobbing over my breakfast while watching my weekly new Pokémon episode but here we are.

This was such an important episode. The Rising Volt Tacklers are so brave for attempting to find Entei and the Black Rayquaza.

This episode felt like made for a Pokemon movie flashback.

Dear Arceus! Zygarde exploded.

Hearing from Rystal about how they got to Rakua, I wouldn't be surprised if was Mirage Island.

To be honest, i was expecting more. Looks like it's still too early to show us stuff related to the upcoming games, mentioned in tera leaks
Anyway, we got an explanation about Lucius better late than never, but we only know one perspective. We still don't know how Gibeon survived this long, where exactly he is, and how the current Explorers group came to be.
I wonder how long we will have to wait for discover this lore further, cause for now the less important adventures are ahead of us, and December will end with RVT meeting Entei.

@Soleks100000 you were expecting more cuz you looked at leaks that weren't supposed to be seen. looking at leaks makes you set unrealistic expectations and ruins the element of surprise.

@Sammy56 Well, the leaks indeed piqued my hype for some game related news, but thats not all.
Since the anime began airing, I've wanted to learn more about the Explorers, to get to know their members better, especially Amethio.
In fact, after 75 episodes, we still don't fully know their motivations. At the end of the Paldea arc, I complained here that Onyx and Coral, despite being at school with the protags, were given very little time.
This all happened before the leaks. I simply want to know the characters' motivations, and the creators of the anime are hiding it for as long as possible.

Trainers back then having shiny legendary Pokémon as their starters really makes it look like they were hacking or something lol.

Honestly, I was expecting a much better flashback for a legendary trainer and his journey to reach the Pokémon paradise.
I couldn’t stop laughing when Rystal was wondering what happened to Gibeon after that. Like, I don’t know, maybe he’s dead? Because none of you even tried to save him; you just ignored him. And Lucius sacrificing himself for no reason—what was that? I can understand Terapagos trying to stop Rakurium from spreading further using the six heroes' power, but Lucius? What are you even doing? This is just so sad, man. The anime started off looking so promising.

Fufu, I like the implications that Lucius and Rystal were doing it during their adventure.
Well, once, at least.

@Skidmark44 yeah you right. I thought it had the 600 BST rule, hence mythical, but I am wrong.

Cliche on top of cliche. Of course it's not a surprise how it all turned out, especially as it was hinting that stuff all along, but i'm somehow still disappointed, i really wanted the story to be good.
